Forms :: Entering Data Into Table - Syntax Error With Access 2013
May 20, 2013
I am pretty new to access and trying to create a form to enter data into a table. I keep getting a syntax error. Below is the part of code where I keep getting the syntax.
I have searched to find the correct syntax to refer to a combo box control on a nested subform. All the examples I've found Access 2013 will not recognize or find the appropriate control.
I have a parent form called IncidentDetails. On that form I have a control called ctrlLogDetail. Within that control is a form called sfrm_LogDetail. On sfrm_LogDetail, I have a control called ctrlType which houses a form called sfrmType. On sfrmType, I have a combo box called cboType. I need to be able to place the cboType choice into a query to filter records for another combo box on that same form. the query works appropriately when I have sfrmType open, however as soon as I try to call the query from the IncidentDetails form, Access cannot find the cboType control.
I've tried multiple variations of the syntax to call to cboType that I've found online. I found a very useful reference from BTA Development: however the syntax there will NOT work in Access 2013.
What is the appropriate syntax would be to get to my control within my 3 deep nested subform? I'm working Access 2013 and won't have a choice regarding Access versions.
I have a simple data entry form where I can key the "row", "COLUMN", SPACE "a" and space "B" onto an access 2010 table. Is there a way that if I key the same four fields, e.g., A5AB that I get a message back before updating telling me that combination already exists?
I do generate a calculated data field, which in this case would be "a5ab" and which is displayed on report screens. Could the value of this calculated field be stored on the Table and be used to prevent the same value from again be entered on the Table?
I use before insert code procedure to insert default value for one, or more fields in row. It is normal to have these fields are disabled. This event occurs when you try to enter a value in any another field in a row. However , when I finish entering the field going to the event before update regardless and trigger a validation of all fields in a row. I am not leaving from row , I want to go further input in other fields.How to insert default (calculated) values in new row.
Code:I'm getting this error:Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error in CREATE TABLE statement./mljnew/welcomeportal/registration/registration/test.asp, line 7
What am I doing wrong ??? The code here is probably the MySql correct code (Access uses different data types / field names ???) Hope somebody can help me out, because I can't find the correct data types anywhere ! (like use TEXT instead of VARCHAR, that's all I know...)
Here's the actual sql i'm using (displayed by response.write sql): CREATE TABLE roel (id INT(10) PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT, email VARCHAR(155), gevalideerd VARCHAR(10) DEFAULT 'nee', inlogCount INT(10) DEFAULT 0, lastLogin DATETIME)
I've been using the following code successfully in Access 2003 & now I need to migrate to Access 2010. The purpose of the code is to use the items that the user selects in the list box to build the criteria of a query. Access 2010 keeps giving me a syntax error when I try to run the query & I don't know why:
My code is:
On Error GoTo Err_Command151_Click
' Declare variables Dim db As DAO.Database Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef Dim varItem As Variant Dim strCriteria As String Dim strSQL As String
[Code] .....
The syntax error I get in Access 2010 is:
Syntax Error in query expression 'SELECT * FROM qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK WHERE qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK.Rep ortableName IN('Adbri Masonry NSW');'
Hi guys i tried to run this create table statement and each time i get syntax error.

Could any one help me write correct create table statement that does not give me this error.I know u might tell me why u do not create table in design view or .. but i want to do this since i want learn this method as well.thanks
CREATE TABLE PLAYERS (PLAYERNO SMALLINT NOT NULL CHECK (PLAYERNO >0), NAME CHAR(25) NOT NULL , INITIALS CHAR(5) NOT NULL , BIRTH_DATE DATETIME, SEX CHAR(1) NOT NULL , JOINED SMALLINT CHECK (JOINED >=1980), STREET CHAR(15) NOT NULL , HOUSENO CHAR(4), POSTCODE CHAR(6), TOWN CHAR(10) NOT NULL , PHONENO CHAR(10), LEAGUENO CHAR(4), PRIMARY KEY (PLAYERNO) )

I have a simple line chart plotting price against date.
I would like to plot a secondary line on this chart from an array of data that I calculate. I've searched hi and low but can't seem to find a way of doing this.
The closest I've found is from this:-

I can create my array of data but I can't seem to get it to work and think it may be for pivot charts....which access 2013 can't do anymore.
how to plot multiple data sets on the same graph in Access 2013.
I have 5 tables that I would like to input data in. It can only be done with a single form. The fields I want to input in have the same names in all 5 tables, for example:
Table 1: Name Age DOB
Table 2: Name Age DOB
Table 3: Name Age DOB
Table 4: Name Age DOB
Table 5: Name Age DOB
Is it possible to input data into all of these fields in each table using one textbox for each field?
Preferably without having to use code but if it cannot be done without it then that would be fine.
The following code works fine until it gets to last record, then it give me Error # 94 Invalid use of null. I have searched all of my code and null is not in the code.
Code: '-------------------------------------------------------- ' Goes to next record '--------------------------------------------------------- Private Sub cmdNext_Click() On Error GoTo err_handler ' DoCmd.GoToControl (txtNameL) ' DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNext
I am regularly getting the error "There is not enough free memory to update your display, close unneeded programs and try again"
Access 2013 on a windows 7 machine with 4 processors and 24GB total RAM.
Today I have 14 GB free memory (unbelievable! my first laptop had 136 MB total memory!) when I got this error (Access using 38MB) which makes me believe its not a system memory issue but to do with how much (or quickly) memory is allocated to Access.
I get this strange behavior in multiple forms I have. When I click on a field for the first time, I get a quick popup that immediatly disappear. It only get the popup when I enter fields I added for search purpose (a listbox which has a query as source, which I build with the value from another input field that the user type in).
I get the error when : -I enter the input field for the first time -I type in a value for the first time -I select an element in the listbox -Also when I open a form for the first time (happens only for the first opened form)
I don't even have time to see what it is in fact. I had to time a screenshot to see what it was.
So, I get an error like this : "Search referenced file : MSOUTL.OLB". No text in the msgbox, only that title.
[URL] .....
I checked google, found various reference to Outlook stuff. Problem is, I don't use any outlook stuff. I don't get any of those popup when I open the projet under Access 2013, but under Access 2010 I get them. I created the project under Access 2013, but users will use Access 2010.
I am having a problem with my Contacts Database. I have attached it for your review.
My main form entitled "frmContact", is a form to enter a new contact. I have a Notes subform, and I want to be able to enter multiple notes for one person. I have a note for John Doe, and tried to enter a new note for him and got this error message:
"The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'tblcontact"."
Why is it doing this? I tihnk I have the relationships correct, and everything...
I am setting up a database using Access 2013, and am trying to test downloading files from Excel. For some reason it is not allowing me to have more then 4 columns in the excel file, it gives the error "Subscript out of range". I thought it was the type of variable at first, but when I tried deleting different columns on both files, the transfer always worked with 4 columns. How do I allow more columns to be transferred?Also, is there a way to not include the row numbers of the excel file as an ID column and only include the ID given in the first column?
In Access 2007 and 2010 there was a "Collect Data" group under "External Data" where I could click "Create E-mail" that would build an email form for an outbound email in Outlook based on a table. I would then send the email out, then collect the data back into the table from Outlook when the recipient of the email responded with a filled out form. I don't see how to do that with Access 2013. I do see the "Email" button, but that's for something else. I see no 'Collect Data' in Access 2013 like the picture below shows from Access 2007.
I want to create a Web App in Access 2013 that contains a table of client names, addresses etc, and a second table that contains order details, including client name. It would be nice to ensure that as someone adds a new order they are give a drop down menu containing existing client names, and I can see how you can do this for a brand new table using the lookup data type. But I already have an Excel spread sheet containing client names. If I import this into my Access web app to create the client table, and import the existing orders to create the order table, I then try and change the data type of the client name (in the order table) from short text to lookup, it won't let me!! (If I create an empty client table from scratch, it lets me define the company name as a lookup data type - but I can't then import from Excel into this empty table)
I've recently moved up to Access 2013 (from Access 2010) and everything went well, until one day my splash screen was blank and the program had empty fields...after seeing that all the links to the BE were OK, I re-booted and everything worked fine....until the next day the same thing happened...... The program randomly falls over about once or twice a week and I have to re-boot to cure it.....
My splash screen has a standard dlookup ( [=DLookUp("Banner","tblCompanyInfo")] ) to display the active company name...and sometimes its populated and other times its not..... if its not populated then loads of other fields on the forms are also blank - even if they point to valid data in the database!!!!!!
Win7 (both 32 and 64bit) with Access 2013 32bit on three PC's - same problem on all!!!!
Can I use the Like command in an If Then statement? I'm getting a syntax error
If [Primary1Name] Like 'PO*' Then MsgBox "You cannot use a post office box address. Use a residence address.", vbOKOnly, "Incorrect Address Information" DoCmd.GoToControl "Primary1Address1" Else End If

I have a people table; Ethnicity Table; Program Type Table; Attendance Table.
I enter the people into the people table then enter people into the attendance table with lookup for name from the people table and a lookup for program type from program type table and enter date attended. I then run a query on the attendance table to remove duplicates. I created a form from the attendance query there are 3 headers Program, Ethnicity, Name. but the program type comes up as the ID number and not the text name.
The Ethnicity did the same thing but when I added the Ethnicity from the people table to the ethnicity header it show up as the name and I hide the box with the number but when I add the program type from the program type table to the program header is changes the source of the report to the program type table and then nothing shows up. It did not do that when I added the ethnicity type from the ethnicity table to the ethnicity header.
Some days ago I made it by using "query", but now I forget it how I make the relation on this situation. Here is my problem.I have 3 Table on mdb file, named Table: A, B, Status.Table Status have One Filed with 1 Data: Dishonor
Table A have three fields
Sl Number: (Auto Number) Status: Lookup wizard-data of (Table-Status)-Default Value is "Honor" Amount:Number
Table B have two Fileds Sl Number: Number Status: Lookup wizard-data of (Table-Status)
After Entering Some data on Table A it's Look like as:
Asl numberstatusamount 1Honor5222 2Honor855 3Honor988 4Honor7777 5Honor777 6Honor9999
[code]...
Now I want to change the Status of SL Number Honor to Dishonor so I fillup data on Table B is as like following
sl numberstatus 5Dishonor
Now how I can get the result as following by using query:sl numberstatusamount 1Honor5222 2Honor855 3Honor988 4Honor7777 5Dishonor777 6Honor9999 7Honor6666 8Honor7777 9Honor666
I have a program that has a "GC" Button that I click on which takes me to a General Contractor Form. It works perfectly unless the Firm has an apostrophe in it's name. For example "D'Agostino". (refer to attached DAgostino1.jpg). When I click on the GC button, I get the attached Syntax error, (Syntax on DAgostiono.jpg).
The third attachment (GC Firm Button Code.jpg) shows the VBC for this button.
I have a table in access and I need to format it so that when column "Status" = "Closed" column "Closed" = "yes". so it will automatically mark column "Closed" "yes" if "status" says "closed". Instead of having to change both columns all the time.I know how to do that in MS Excel, but is it possible in MS Access 2013?
