Can you append to a table that is empty? If you can please let me know. I made table through "make table" query and now I run the append query to the empty table but it is not putting any information in the empty table
Can you append to a table that is empty?
ok im having some serious problems here. im using a tutorial to make a database for my small business and everything was going great, except this 1 problem ive been having for like 2 weeks now. i had my 2 main tables linked together using another table which is my foriegn field i think? anyway i used a query to make this table and to add the data from my other 2 tables to it. now i want to add the data from my suppliers table to it aswell but i dont know how. my original query wasnt saved cause the tutorial told me i didnt need to save. i think what i need to do is append this data to query like i did when i first made it but if the query isnt there anymore how can i append it? does this mean i have to start my database from scratch and do all 3 tables at once? or can i make a new query? ive tried making a new query to add this data to the linking table but no go. im horrible at explaining this so hopefully some pictures will help.
heres my relationships. what i want to do is make my tblSuppliers link to my tblItems. i think i need to link it to tblCategoryItems and do the query thing to add the data to it. is this correct? or is there another way i can do it?

in this pic you can see how the first 2 fields were populated for me by the query but now i added an extra field which i want populated with the supplier ID. i tried to manually add the number of the supplier here but it didnt work either. i think i need another primary key for it to work but i cant add another primary key to this table cause access complains.

Hi all,
What is an Appending Query?
How to create an Appending Query?
Sorry for bothering you...
Thanks & Regards
I need to build up a string containing values separated by commas. The following almost does this.
I use an update query in which the "Update to" field for 'String field' contains
[String field] & IIf(Len([String field])<1,"",", ") & [Related table]![Value to append]
I would like to have the [Related table]![Value to append] in ascending order.
I.e. I would like the result to look like "A, B, C, F, H", not "B, C, H, F, A". Any suggestions as to how to apply the sort?
i have several comboboxes and textboxes in a form called
inputorders.frm. I am trying to get all of them to an append
table which would allow to show the control values in a table on
the form with a command button:"add item". I'm using a
append query that will only run by itself. Getting the "enter
parameter values" msgbox and not the values from the form.
I really don't know what i'm am doing wrong. It is a single row and
I can't get the appendquery to work with the command trigger event
What is the correct way to code the query along with the command
button to trigger the query with the control values automatically displaying
in the table.
THanks for the help,
i have a table with tons of records in it. There is a field called "date to return by" that previously had a default value of Date+30. Now, some things changed in our company, and under certain conditions, the "date to return by" for new records will be Date+14, or Date+30. At first, i tried making this relationship in a table as a default value, but, you cannot make a relationship like this in a table.
So, i made a query to evaluate the relationship.
what i want to do, is have a query that will have all the same fields the table had and evaluate whether a records' "date to return by" should be Date+30 or Date +14, and then put that new record back in the table.. but, this will only be for new records, as i will be keeping all the old records in the table as they are.
how can i do this?
all of my reports read off of my table so i want to keep the table. can i make a query that will put new records into a table one at a time as i make them?
Ok so I am making an application which requires me to add a record.. ok fine, but then i also need a cancell option, which would delete the record... np, BUT if the user cancells, I don't want my Auto number increasing... So I am writing to a temporary table which mirrors the original one, and then if the user clicks cancell, i delete the temporary record... If the user clicks "save" then i want to Append that new record to my original Table and then delete the record... HOWEVER, when i appended this record the first time it added 2 identical records to the original table, Then 4 the next time, Then 8, 16, 32 , etc etc I'm not quite sure how I did this but i hope its a common problem that somebody has maybe done themselves and will be able to help me out...
Attached is a Skeleton with the original Table, and the Temporary Table, along with the same query currently i have some data entered, When you attempt to add another record to the temp table , and then run the append query, it will add 8 identical records... TRY IT! and then HELP ME!! please!
I'm making a database for tracking purchase orders for contract workers in my department. Business rules dictate that a PO is created for each unique Contractor-Project instance.
I pulled a report (.csv format) of weekly timesheets from the company's project management database system. Some of the fields include: EmpUserName, EmpID, ProjectID, ProjectName, WeekEndDate, Hours. I linked to the file in my database and ran a query on it without WeekEndDate so that I get the total hours each contractor has worked for each project they've billed to. I created a table called tblContractorProject and appended the records to it. I'm going to be pulling this report each week so I can see if any contractors start billing to any new projects so I can create a purchase order for it. Is there a way to write an append query that can recognize if the EmpID and ProjectID combination is new and doesn't already exist in the table?
Hi Guys and Girls.
I have about 100 or so tables that I need to append back into one table :eek:
However all of these 100 tables all begin with the number 100 at the beggining. I know that you can append tables - but as far as I know you can only do one at a time. Is there any easy way to do this - for example writing a small SQL statement - saying select all tables that begin with 100* and then append into a master table :confused:
Alternatively are there any programs on the net that can do this (I just wrote a massive macro to import them from a text file in to access- not realising this problem would happen!) :(
Unfortunately each of the tables has the first row as the column heading too?
Any help would be much appreciated!!
Cuurently using Access 97 though.
I want to stop/skip appending of those records who match in main data table "MCIGMMS" on the basis [PORTCD] [IGMNO] fields in "PCIGMMS2". When Match found Msg Box appear and appending skip or stop of those records.
Can any one help me or give me code.
Regards.
SQL CODE:
INSERT INTO MCIGMMS ( PORTCD, IGMNO, IGMYY, IGMDAT, SHPANO, VSLFLT, VOYAGE, ARVDAT, SLOCCD, CNTCOD, LSTPRT, CAPTAN, SHPCMP, TOTIDX, BOTTOM, BEGIDX )
SELECT PCIGMMS2.PORTCD, PCIGMMS2.IGMNO, PCIGMMS2.IGMCY, PCIGMMS2.IGMDAT, PCIGMMS2.SHPANO, PCIGMMS2.VSLFLT, PCIGMMS2.VOYAGE, PCIGMMS2.ARVDAT, PCIGMMS2.SLOCCD, PCIGMMS2.CNTCOD, PCIGMMS2.LSTPRT, PCIGMMS2.CAPTAN, PCIGMMS2.SHPCMP, PCIGMMS2.TOTIDX, PCIGMMS2.SBOTTOM, PCIGMMS2.BEGIDX
FROM MCIGMMS RIGHT JOIN PCIGMMS2 ON MCIGMMS.IGMNO = PCIGMMS2.IGMNO;
I have a local table that I am trying to append to a linked table. The fields are exactly the same. When I try to append the entire local table to the linked table I get an error code.
ODBC- insert on a link table failed.
[ctreeSQL]-17002 CT- Key value already exists in index (linked table field) (#-17002)
If I specify the criteria in the field to refer to a specific value in the local table, it updates it just fine. I want an append query because I don't want to manually update 500+ records!! I don't believe an update query would work because the values are not in the current linked table... so nothing to update!
Hi,
I am trying to implement an update query per the instructions at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;127977 to append records from table2 to table1.
I would like to add a criteria here saying update (and append) only records that match the criteria table2.dateofreview <= #12/17/2006#
This does not seem to work. The same query works without this criteria.
To test this, I created just one record in table2 (table1 is blank at this time) and manually entered the dateofreview as 12/17/2006 and tried to execute the query. It is not able to show any records.
Won't this query work *with* a Criteria?
we have a calculated field in an append query Line_Cost which eventually creates a purchase order.
We have to have a minimum order value of £1500.00, so, we need to total the values before running the append query.
Is there a way to generate 2-3 reports and append them together into one preview, or perhaps export them to one Word File?
This would help for generating multiple graphs in reports for a large set of data.
I have three tables with a same structure (fields and e.t.c). I wanna append them into one table.
How I do it?
I have a 2 databases exactly the same I need to append the records from one of them to the other. The only tables that need appending are "Transactions" & "Details"...that's it.
Transaction Tbl:
TransactionID (PK) AutoNumer
TransDate...
Detail Tbl:
DetailID (FK to TransID)
DetailDate...
The problem is how do I combine them because TransactionID is an Autonum?
If I append one Transaction table to the other one (without the autonum of course), a NEW autonum is assigned then I can't link the DetailID's when I append the detail tables together.
What to do?
I only have 44 total transactions to worry about so it's mostly curiousity.
I have three tables, table 1 'ServerTest' contains 5 records which should not change, table 2 'Region' has 40+ records.
using an append quary all records are combined into table 3 'Junction1'
my problem...
the Region table will change over time and new records will be added.
how do I append the new records only to the junction1 table?
this is my append quary;
INSERT INTO Junction1 ( RegionID, TestID, TestNumber, TestDescription )
SELECT Region.RegionID, ServerTest.TestID, ServerTest.TestNumber, ServerTest.TestDescription
FROM Region, ServerTest;
thanks :)

Please help me guys, basically i'm having a problem appending a a date value from a subform into a table. My master form "F_ReceivingProcessParts" is running this query "Q_ReceivingDetailSub" from a button command using "DoCmd.OpenQuery "Q_ReceivingDetailSub"". Here is my SQL code for your reference.
INSERT INTO T_ReceivingProcess ( [date] )
SELECT [Forms]![F_ReceivingProcessPartsSub]![txtDate1] AS Expr1;
I'm always getting the "Enter Parameter Value" box and if i click on cancel it says that it can't find the name "Forms!F_ReceivingProcessPartsSub!txtDate1" in the expression.
Thanks

Hello,
i'm new with access and was wondering if i can get some help with an append query?
I'm getting an error message that state the following below:
*Microsoft Access can't append all the records in the append query.
Microsoft Access set 36 field(s) to Null due to a type conversion failure, and it didn't add 0 records to the table due to key violations, 0 records due to lock violations, and 0 records due to validation rule violations.
This is my append query below:
INSERT INTO CustExportHoldCiti ( Custodian, CustAcct, Ticker, Cusip, CurrCode, SecurityName, Shares, CustCost, CustValue, POI, OriginalDiscount, HoldingType, Loc, Expr1 )
SELECT DISTINCT [CitiBank Current Holdings].Custodian, [CitiBank Current Holdings].[Account Number], SecSymbolsAll.SecSymbol AS Ticker1, [CitiBank Current Holdings].CUSIP1, [CitiBank Current Holdings].Curr, [CitiBank Current Holdings].[Security Description], [CitiBank Current Holdings].Shares, [CitiBank Current Holdings].CustCost, [CitiBank Current Holdings].CustValue, [CitiBank Current Holdings].POI, [CitiBank Current Holdings].OriginalDiscount, [CitiBank Current Holdings].HoldingType, dbo_Locations.Location, [date] AS Expr1
FROM [CitiBank Current Holdings] LEFT JOIN (SecSymbolsAll LEFT JOIN dbo_Locations ON SecSymbolsAll.LocationID = dbo_Locations.LocationID) ON [CitiBank Current Holdings].Ticker = SecSymbolsAll.SecSymbol
WHERE (((SecSymbolsAll.SecSymbol) Is Not Null));
I can't figure out what is wrong with it. Thank you for the help.

I have two tables of 100.000 rows. Is any way to join them into one table?
View 7 Replies View RelatedHello,
I have 1200 tables (precipitation data) that I need to aggregate into 1 table for summary and statistical operations. I need to retain each table's name: <month_year>. Is there a way to insert a column with the source table title while I am appending? Or should I go about this in a completely different way?
Thanks for your thoughts,

How do you import data from excel using fields that already exist? In other words, I need Access to append the data to the records rather than try and add it to the recordset and throw a tizzy when duplicates are created.
Thanks....
