Any Way To Read CD Table Of Contents?
Oct 23, 2011Any way in MS Access to read the TOC data from an Audio CD? It is I believe in the lead-in part. I have a music database, and would like to be able to read the track data directly from the CD (Title, artist, timing), without having to type it all in again.
I know this can be done, because my CD labelling software extract the data automatically - but can Access do it?
Adding Information To A Read-only Table?
Jan 31, 2008Hello,
I wasn't sure which area to post this question in...since it involves queries, tables, and forms :)
There is a read-only table in my company's data warehouse that stores a lot of records. I wish to set up a form that will allow users to add or relate data (fields) to each of those records.
Updating the data warehouse table structure is not an option.
How can I best do this...
1. set up my own table somewhere, that will automatically append any new data warehouse records every night, so basically I'll always have a copy of the DW table, but with additional fields that can be updated?
2. set up another table/query that are linked to the DW table via unique identifier...but if I do this, how do I display the DW records alongside the new fields in a way that makes sense? another query? will I be able to write in data in this fashion?
3. ...some other way?
Any assistance will be very much appreciated!

Modules & VBA :: Read Currently Selected (highlighted) Row In Table?

Using Boolean 'and' To Update A Table Based On Values In A Link Table
Feb 24, 2008The attached Access XP file demonstrates my problem. I've included a form to make testing easier.
Each record in the Projects table has one or more linked entries in the Keywordlink table, showing keywords that apply to that record. Each record in Projects has a Yes/No 'Utility' field.
A third table, Keywords, supplies the keywords that the user can apply to records in Projects, using the subform on the main form. The Keywords table also includes a True/False 'Utility' field. I have set this to True for for the first three keywords.
I need a query, a series of queries or some VB code that updates Projects_Utility for all records to True if and only if the record's linked entries in Keywordlink include all of the keywords for which Keywords_Utility is True (a boolean 'and', as opposed to an 'or'). Otherwise, Projects_Utility must be set to False.
In the attached file, with the current settings in the Keyword table, the 'GetSelectedProjects' query should then produce single-row listings for ClientA and ClientF.
I'd appreciate any help you can give me on this. I'm not a programmer, but I can manage a bit of VB code if I have to.
Audit Trail To Read The Caption Of The Field From The Table
Dec 20, 2006Hi every one
i have an application with an audit trail module, i do read the table name , field name,old value, new value. but the lables of the fields at my forms are changed to arabic language
for example
lets say i do have a table
the name of one field is Name
on the form the label of this field is Lawyer Name
now the client is asking me to show the ( Lawyer Name ) not the field name ( Name ) in the audit trail to know the changes were made.
I thought to go to the tables and on each field 's caption i shall add in arabic the same as in my form
I am trying to read the caption of the field from the tables
i hope you understood what i mean
if you show me the code to do that , it would be highly appreciated
thanks in advance
Tables :: Read A File And Import Its Data Into A Table?
Oct 17, 2014Was wondering how i can import data from a file to a table in different fields. The data inside the file is described with the number of characters and space's between. The attached file has the data.
For example in the file attached, the first four characters represent a data like 'ticket number' and maybe the third line 6 to 10 charcaters represent 'name of a passenger'.
Now how do i import these data to a table into respective fields in a table.
Tables :: Two Fields In A Table / Link To Same Lookup Table
Mar 14, 2013I have a table "Product" and in this table I have two fields "StoragePlaceID1" and "StoragePlaceID2". Both these fields link to the look-up table "StoragePlace"
*Attached Image "Product_StoragePlace" from the Access Relationship Window"*
When I want to add a new Product from my inter face i get the error you can see in the Attached Image "Save_Error".I think the problem is that the Relationship is defined as One-to-Many,there a way to define the relationship as Zero-to-Many.
Forms :: Table Doesn't Read Combo Box Info Correctly
Nov 24, 2014I have a form "FrmMaintenance" based on the query "QryMaintenance" that is taken information from the table "TblMaintenance".
In the form, I have to pull the serial number of a machine from a drop down list which works perfectly fine in the form and it also updates other associated records.
When I go to the table, it puts associated number instead of the serial number that I've pulled.
Same thing happening for the pull down list "Engineer".
I've tried to look at the format of the "SerialNo" and changed to text, then to Combo Box but it didn't work, and the same for "Engineer"
Tables :: Password Protect A Linked Table Or Make It Read Only
Nov 14, 2012I have a table that I imported from another database. I used import Access - Link to the table source by creating a linked table. - then downloaded in my database.
I want to use the linked table to create relationships and forms but do not want to even accidently edit it. The table gets updated in the database on a weekly bases and I am hoping it gets updated automatically in my database as well. does it automatically get updated or do i have to set up something?
Also, I want to protect the data in that particular table and either password protect it or make it read only. Can I do that? If so, how?

Access 2010 Table Suddenly Read Only - How To Remove That Restriction
Nov 8, 2014This application has worked fine in the past, but now I find it stops cold saying a particular linked table is read-only. I've looked around and all I can find in the various forums is how to MAKE a table read-only. Reversing that process seems very difficult.
The application is a copy of another that now exhibits the same problem. Each uses a different data mdb - part of the development I'm doing involves changing a different table. I'm developing changes to the application in this separate copy.
I can't tell if other tables would have this problem - the table in question is the very first used (initialization routine) and I can't get past it without deactivating a bunch of code.

Table Link Manager
Jan 31, 2008I searched the internet and different forums, but could not find the solution for my problem. In Access 2003 I splitted the database and made a mde file of the frontend. When I copy the front and backend to another computer it cannot find the backend due to the original path is included. To solve this I would like the database to link the backend that is available in the directory of the frontend. No more and no less. Is this possible? I find a lot of questions in this direction, but could not destilate a solution.

How To Remove The Table Link?
Jul 18, 2006anyone know how to remove the table link (not delete linked table) at run time?
View 1 Replies View RelatedLink Table Issues
May 2, 2008I have a frontend and backend database put in a network drive where users can access to the frontend version which has tables linked to the backend.
When I set up the link tables from the frontend to the backend, Access points to a local drive letter in my computer. For example, if I map the network drive where the databases are, say to Drive R:, the link table in the frontend will always point to tables in the backend on R:. If other user map the same network drive to drive letter other than R:, the table links between the frontend and the backend will be broken.
I wonder if anyone knows a way to set up table link with a physical path instead of a local drive letter?
Thanks
Mike :rolleyes:
