I have created some queries that are joined on long text fields (80-120 characters). I can save the query in the graphic query design window. But when I reopen the window I get messages that the Joins have been deleted. I cannot find any references to this issue. Does anyone have experience or info on this?
I don't need a lecture about the use of long text fields in Query Joins. And yes I have used Search first.
What is the difference between "short text" and "long text"? Both seem to have 255 characters limit. I have Access 2013, and I found a solution, that you can use Memo instead of Short text. But the problem is, that there is no "memo" data type in Access 2013. So that won't work for me.
I have an Access form linked to two SQL tables, I had to make a change to the field length/datatype of a field named notes. The form now tells me that the "text is too long to be edited" whenever I try to add data to that Notes field in my form. I went from char to nvarchar... how do I fix this?
I’m working on a form on which I like to place an unbound text box to get a long amount of data. The text boxes in link to a field table having 250-field size. Now, I’d like to be able to use a text box, which will allow me to enter from 800 to 1000 characters. Is that possible in Access 2000?
I have a large spreadsheet with one column of information which is longer than what access accepts as long text. So when I convert the spreadsheet to access all the large boxes of information are shortened so that I am losing a lot of information.
I have a long text box or memo box that I would like to filter but do not know how. How to set up a filtering feature to use for these types of boxes? I have no problems with short text boxes.
I'm trying to save the contents of a text box into a memo field in a table, but after my code runs i look in the field and it is cut off after a hundred characters or so, and the last few characters are garbled. This is the code:
Code: DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE orderheaders SET orderheaders.Comments = [Text127] WHERE orderheaders.OrderNumber = " & GlOrderNumber & ""
I have been using Access 2013 to make a database which outputs values to PowerPoint. Everything has been working fine up to now that I'm trying to add to the presentation.
I have two tables with data in which are both brought together in a query which my VBA code relates to to output it to Powerpoint. Both tables contain data in 'long text' fields. The data from one outputs into PowerPoint textboxes without any issues regardless of the length of the data but the data from the other one is truncated to 255 characters. It definitely says it is a 'long text' field - is there any reason it would truncate the output?
I have a comment box that was just for text. I have been asked to adapt this to allow a web URL to be typed in which would then become a clickable hyperlink (like typing in a Word document). Is this possible?

I am a pretty novice user currently playing around with Access 2013 using Office 365.
I used to love the old style Memo field where people cut put in carriage returns to split up data. I am wondering if this function has been removed with this LONG TEXT FIELD or is there a way around it.
I like it because I tend to use it as a tracking field and like the newest "comments" at the top separated by a Carriage Return...
I have encountered an issue when I was inserting a string (with newlines about 176 characters) into access table. This field in access has the data type TEXT and it was truncated after the insertion. It is strange because I have three other fields with the same format and no truncation at all. May I know what could be the reason and how/what is the recommend data type for storing long text?
I'm having an issue where when I attempt to export data from an Access database to an excel spreadsheet using VBA it truncates any field longer than 255 characters to the 255 limit. I'm using
to export it (obviously with the table name and filepath filled in) but for some reason I cannot get it to export the entirety of the field to excel. I've been doing some digging on various forums around the internet and it seems as though it may be possible to split it into various excel cells then use automation to concatenate the cells. But considering this field I am trying to get not truncated can be up to 40,000 characters theoretically, it doesn't make sense to do it that way.Do you need more information from me? I'm somewhat new to both Access and VBA.
The scenerario is the following: I have a table that keeps information for weeks about some files (e.g: if the file has been sent). Then I have another table with information for days in a month (the data for every day).
What I should do is: Check wheter the week has been sent, if it has been sent, I have to show the data for every day of that week in a report. Only for one month... and I can't figure out how to build that query...
I guess I should do something like: select week from weekTable where week=week and sent=TRUE set rcset=db.openrecordset(sql) if(not rcset.eof)then 'build in here the query to select the data I need from the month table end if
but i can't figure out how the loop would be for 1 month...
I have found that sometimes this works and sometimes it doesn't, (Like, it works the first time I run it, but later quits working....)so I've gotten into the habit of repeating my calculations and writing it thus instead:
select [x]+[y] as A, [z]*([x]+[y]) as B from MyTable.
However, I now have some query fields that have so many calculations in them that I exceed the string length that Access allows for a query field. So is there a way to make the shorter SQL work consistently?
Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks!
PS: Here's the field I need to shorten: AdjFcstDay: IIf(((Sum([AvgDaily])*First([forecastweeks])*5+nz(First([backlog]),0))/(First([forecastweeks])*5))+IIf([wiptotal]<(IIf(First(CDbl(nz([dailystddev],0)))<=0,0,xlnormsinv(First([lowwipflag]))*First([dailystddev]))),((IIf(First(CDbl(nz([dailystddev],0)))<=0,0,xlnormsinv(First([lowwipflag]))*First([dailystddev])))-[wiptotal])/5,IIf([wiptotal]>(IIf(First(CDbl(nz([dailystddev],0)))<=0,0,xlnormsinv(First([highwipflag]))*First([dailystddev]))),((IIf(First(CDbl(nz([dailystddev],0)))<=0,0,xlnormsinv(First([highwipflag]))*First([dailystddev])))-[wiptotal])/5,0))<0,0,(Sum([AvgDaily])*First([forecastweeks])*5+nz(First([backlog]),0))+IIf([wiptotal]<(IIf(First(CDbl(nz([dailystddev],0)))<=0,0,xlnormsinv(First([lowwipflag]))*First([dailystddev]))),((IIf(First(CDbl(nz([dailystddev],0)))<=0,0,xlnormsinv(First([lowwipflag]))*First([dailystddev])))-[wiptotal])/5,IIf([wiptotal]>(IIf(First(CDbl(nz([dailystddev],0)))<=0,0,xlnormsinv(First([highwipflag]))*First([dailystddev]))),((IIf(First(CDbl(nz([dailystddev],0)))<=0,0,xlnormsinv(First([highwipflag]))*First([dailystddev])))-[wiptotal])/5,0)))
Im working on an update query to add 2 zeros to the front of a field where it is less than 8 digits long. I'm not sure how to go about this, can anyone help me out?
is it possible to use a sum select query in the control source field of a text box. I have a query that works fine in a combo text box but I keep getting a 'syntax error with subquery parenthesis' when I try and build on in a normal text box.
I am building the query using query design view and the query works and then I'm copying the SQL code behind the query into the text box field and access reformats it s a bit so not sure it's that's the reason.
R_P_Data_P = Table approvalNosys = Field in the table status = Field in the table score = Field in the table cmrOverview = Form [approvalNoSys] = field in form 1 is the criteria
Code: SELECT R_P_Data_P.approvalNosys, R_P_Data_P.status, Sum(R_P_Data_P.score) AS SumOfscore FROM R_P_Data_P GROUP BY R_P_Data_P.approvalNosys, R_P_Data_P.status HAVING (((R_P_Data_P.approvalNosys)=[forms]![cmrOverview]![approvalNoSys]) AND ((R_P_Data_P.status)="1"));

It says: "This expression is type incorrectly, or it is too complex to be evalutated. Try Simplifying the expression by assigning parts of the expression to variables."
Does this mean I can not do it all in one query, or how do I assign variables. Sorry I am kinda new to access. Thanks for the help.
Friends: I have Two control Boxes(Field1 and Field2). Field1 text Box wit expression Look at Database table field using Dlookup() function,
Field1 expression like this: =NZ(DLookUp("[up_rt_cp_only_flag]","[SubType2]","[SubType2].[Single_Name] ='" & [TextRDW39R] & "'"))
Field2 text box caculate value based on the Field1's value wich return Dlookup() function. Field2 expression like this: =IIf(NZ([Field1])="Y","Yes","No")
It caculate at form load process. it works fine, Field1 never show error which means it return value correct, I don't know if it is null value in table field cause this problem, so i used NZ function.
However, some time it works fine, many time I got #error for the field2.
I have an autonumber field set up as long integer. The field just reached the value of 32670 and I get the overflow message. I thought a long integer could be much bigger than that before running into that problem.
I got around it by re-creating the field and starting from 1, but would rather know why it's doing it so I don't have users without their system.
I would like to have a back-end Database on a host server and link a front-end Database to the tables several hundred miles away. The problem is I have no experience whatsoever in doing this.
My questions are:
(1) Can tables be linked via the Internet?
(2) If they can, is this the best way to link the tables?
(3) If it is possible to link the tables by the internet or by some other way; how do I do it?
I am using Access 2007 and trying to set the BackColor property of a text box on a form using VBA Code in the Form_Open event with code like this:
Me.txtName.BackColor = <some global variable>
Here's the thing: In order to get the correct color numer, I first pick my desired color from the palette to see its value. In this case, a very bright red comes up as #ED1C24.
In Access 2003 and earlier, this value would be represented as a long integer, not a Hex. So, my question is how to get the HEX value converted to a long integer??
The BackColor property is supposed to be a long integer data type, but that is NOT what the design interface is presenting to me!
Why did Microsoft change the BackColor property of form and report objects from long integer representation to Hex?
