Modules & VBA :: Change Name Of Multiple Hyperlinks At Once
Nov 7, 2014
I have a table with 2 fields. One field is hundreds of hyperlink paths to folders on my computer. These hyperlinks all have their "Texts to Display:" the same as the path to the folder. In my second field I have the desired "Texts to Display:" for Field 1.
As far as I know you can only edit the "Texts to Display:" of hyperlinks 1 by 1. I was wondering if there is a way for me to replace all the display texts with the text located in field 2 all at once? OR if I can add the hyperlink path from field 1 to all the display texts in field 2.

I have a table which contains a number of records, each with a load of different columns. However, the new way of doing H&S splits Risk Assessments into Short and Long COSHH forms. Each experiment only has one Short form, but can have from 0-20 (or more Long). I need a way of adding a box to the form that will return all the associated Long forms for that particular record. I have tried using List Boxes and Combo boxes as well as creating a separate table for the Long Forms, but it isn't doing what I had envisioned.
List boxes appear to do what I want, however they just dump all of the results from the selected columns into the table. I only want the data for the specific record in question. For example, my first record has 6 Long forms, but a list box basically just pusts a snapshot of the table in there rather than the specific results.
All the Short and Long Forms have to be hyperlinked to the associated documents. I have successfully done this for the Short.

I have a form (Form4) which has a a list box (list11) that allows multi select. When I select on the records I need I hit a button that opens a form up with the selected records. This form is a continuous form. I have an unbound combo box (Combo55). Its values come from a specific table. I want to hit a button and change the field "Assigned" on all the records showing to the value that I selected in Combo55.
The problem is it only changes the value of the currently selected record. How Do I get it to change the value of all records that are showing?
I am only testing this idea with default field names. Before I implement the database I have to get a working model and present it. So I am building this and naming at the moment isnt important.

I have multiple reports that use similar IIF statements as the controlsource for four textboxes. Naturally, I don't want to have to update twelve controlsources if any of the calculations change, so I thought I'd make this a public function. However, I don't know how to pass along multiple textboxes as variables. Here's what I have so far:
Code:
Option Compare Database
Public Function txtColor(ByRef textbox As Control)
Dim str1, str2, str3, str4 As String
'The IIf statement is simplified for this example. It's not important.
str1 = "=IIf(IsNull([Inquiry start date]),'W',IIf([txtInquiry]<1 And IsNull([Inquiry end date]),'R'))"
[Code] ....
And this is in the report (where ??? is what I'm asking about)
Code:
Private Sub Report_Load()
Call txtColor(???)
End Sub
The error I get is "Runtime 424 Object Required"

I have a database which has several records with at least 5 documents needing to be attached to each record. Using attachments or OLE would cause considerable bloat, so I opted for hyperlink fields for all the document types necessary to save with each record. However, now I am faced with an issue. It is easy enough to write code to open the files by following the hyperlinks, as well as write code to send an email, but how would I go about combining the two? I need to write a code that will attach these documents to an email, as attachments and not as hyperlinks. I know with excel documents, I could follow the hyperlink and send the document by email through excel, but I also have images converted to pdf's that need to be sent as attachments.

I have a table named z_ResltsSampleCountMonthly. In that table I have fields SampleSize, Month and LOB.
I have a report that I need to use a Dlookup in order to pull the SampleSize by LOB into my report. However, my report has three columns that change based on the start and end dates for the report. It shows current month plus the two prior months to show a trend.
So I have each column heading update automatically based on the dates the user enters into the start and end date on the main menu form.
If they select 12/1/14 to 12/31/14 the three columns heading would update to October 2014, November 2014, and December 2014. In the table I have the data for all three months so when I use this formula it works but it's putting September 2014 data under October 2014 so I need to have multiple criteria; one being the LOB and the other being the column heading which is equal to the field Month in the table.
Code:
=DLookUp("[SampleSize]","z_ResultsSampleCountMonthly","[LOB] = ""CMES""")
This is what I tried to do to add the second criteria to pull based on text59 being equal to the Month field in the table but it's not working:
Code:
=DLookUp("[SampleSize]","z_ResultsSampleCountMonthly","[LOB] ="CMES" And [Month] = ' " & [Text59] & " ' ")

I have a problem that I can't seem to solve in SQL for my access 2010 query.
Let's say I have a the price of and for every year.
In the tables I have A building number, a building type, and electricity and water predictions for this year and many upcoming years (up to 40 years)
I need to apply a change to any building with the building type BRT to show only 10 percent of the electricity and water for ALL years (up to year 2052). So building 5 would show 8.5, 5.4, 9.5, 7.4, and so on.

I imported a big table from excel with many columns. Access when I brought it in determined that they should be "text" format. I don't want to sit and change each field to a "number-double". Is there a way to quickly change data type for multiple fields at once?

Is it possible for an image control to change to a different picture on a form when focus changes to a different record on a subform? I am developing a simple database to record my ever growing collection of TV shows. The form that I use to view my TV show records has an image control on it, I previously had a single image for the entire series (box art for first season). I now want that image control to change to a different picture when the focus changes to a different record on the subform. i.e. when the focus changes from the first season on the subform to the second season; the picture on the main form changes with it.

Alternatively, be pleased to know the code to concatenate "http://" onto the urls.

Thank you!

Hi all
in my table, i have a field type set to hyperlink.
I'm sending a hyperlink address to the table using ADO.
the control property is set to hyperlink yes on the form.
i then display the captured information in a subform data sheet with the filed property set to hyperlink yes. It displays as it should (in blue and underlined) ... but the hyperlinks aren't working. I click on it and nothing happens. If I right click on the hyperlink and "edit" the hyperlink address is missing.
But...
If i go into the table and reset the field to text, save it and then reset it back to hyperlink.... presto is all seems to work. Now when I edit the hyperlink... the address is there. Weird!!
something isn't right. I shouldn't have to do this. I'm being driven mad.
Any ideas??

Hi,
I am new to Access, what is the hyperlink feature in Access ?..is that used to store hyperlinks in their native form ?, am creating a small application where a column is a hyperlink column, this when output to the page should take the use to the correct link. It's part of a news feed program.
I have the forms/HTML all done up to accept and to store the info, it's only the display area that i have a problem with. There are 3 cols in the db, one is an ID, one is a short desc, and the last one is the URL (this is the actual hyperlink).

One more question....
I created a table with one field being a hyperlink
I created a query to query out specific fields including the hyperlink.
I then create a subForm on a form and point to the query.
Everythign works great except the Hyperlink.
It just stops working....I can Delete the Hyperlink field and recreate it then delete the subform and recreate it and it works once....
But then Stops....any thoughts...
I dont know what else to do...I am currently returning multiple records into a Subform based on a query. I did it this way becuase I can click individual fields, including the hyperlink fields.
If I use a List Box then I can select the whole row.
AnYone know why the hyperlinks stop working...or can throw another idea out there of a better way to do this.

Hi,
I have a database I use at work. We have to manual enter in the the hyperlink eg "h:quotes12345.doc". I was wondering if Access can do this for us.

Any ideas on how to get this to work.

I have a form with 15 unbound text boxes (daily temperatures) and what I am trying to do after entering the temperatures into the text boxes the user clicks an add button which will add 15 new records into the temperature table
the code I have started off with is
Code:
CurrentDb.Execute "INSERT INTO ColdTemperatures (ProductID, ColdTempDate, Temperature) VALUES (" & Lettuce & ", #" & Me.RealTime & "#, " & Me.Lettuce & ")"
which adds 1 successfully however if i repeat the code above for all 15 this Im assumming will create a potential bottleneck and slow the system down
is it possible to add all 15 records at once? do you think Im going at this the right way

I made a database that in one of the forms, I like by clicking on a button the user be able to select 5 excel files with different file names (in the same directory) and then based on the imported file's names, it be stored in 5 different tables.
At the moment by using the bellow code, I can import multiple files (with the same formats) only into one table . My vba code comes as follow:
Function GetAllFiles()
Dim fd As Object
Dim strFilter As String
Dim lngItems As Long
Const msoFileDialogOpen As Long = 3
Const msoFileDialogViewDetails As Long = 2
[Code] ....

I am trying to build a newer database 2010, based on an older one,2000, that has been locked tight and I cannot see the modules to kinda get a reference of where to start. I am trying to find a VBA code that will allow me to import a several text files to one table. The text files are all in the same format but I cannot remove the page headers and footers to get the table to look right. I have attached an example of the text file i am trying to import but it is a stripped down version for information protection.
Also, it appears in the old Database Table once imported as:
J.Smith 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Smith 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Smith 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Adam 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Adam 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Adam 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
If I could import the text files and end up with a table like this, it would be all i need as i could run all the queries i need from this.

A small issue I was wondering of for a few day . Is it possible in SQL query to SELECT multiple fields from multiple tables ? Example for the question is
Code:
dim my_var as String
my_var = "SELECT Emp_FName , Emp_LName , Emp_Adress " _
& " FROM Table1 " _
& " AND Emp_Date_Of_Payment , Emp_Sum_Of_Payment " _
& "FROM Table2 " _
& " WHERE Emp_ID = 3 "
Is this code actually valid in SQL gramatics , and is it usable if passed to a Recordset variable ( rs = CurrentDB.OpenRecordset(my_var) ) ? Just FYI - The two tables are not related and I want to keep them that way (If possible relate their records just via SQL/Vba )

Hi,
I am a newbie at Access and this forum. Here is the question I have a database set-up in Access'97 which recently got converted to Access'03. Now previously database reside on my computer and I have a field that holds hyperlinks to documents which were set as relative paths. Now the database has been moved to another location..where ofcourse the relative path don't work, as the parent directory is different. There are a huge number of records in the database with hyperlinks. I need to convert all relative path to absolute paths. Is there an easier and faster way of doing this? Perhaps via a query? I don't want to do this one by one.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I have a database of chemicals and one of the entries is the MSDS number. I would like a hyperlink, pointing to the .pdf of the chemical, created when I enter the MSDS number. If the MSDS number is 1111 the .pdf file will be something like (\servernamefolder1111.pdf). Is there a way to store \serverfolder in a string, append the MSDS number, and .pdf then store that in a hyperlink field. Any suggestions?
