Transferspreadsheet - Numeric Field Overflow

Jun 10, 2005

I have been using a transferspreadsheet cmd for a while now in Access 2003, but when I recently split the database so that the table the import is going to is now linked rather than residing in the same mdb file, I get a numeric field overflow error. I manually made all the values in the import 0, converted it to text, but got the same error.

When I imported the table back into the file, rather than having it linked, the transfer worked fine.

Can you not run the transferspreadsheet command on a linked table or am I missing something?

Numeric Field Overflow

Jul 12, 2006

Guys, When I generate an excel sheet through vb.net code, I get a Numeric Field OVerflow when the values generated contain a date!

my database is ms access...

The problem is that each excel sheet generated has different columns, depending on what columns the user selects to view. for example: if the user chooses name, age and date, the date would appear on the 3rd column, if the user chooses name, nationality, age, family name, date, then the date would appear on the 5th column, etc.....

Does anyone know the way around this??
thanx!

NUMERIC FIELD OVERFLOW!!! <Gah!!>

Sep 13, 2005

Hi,
I'm running an Append Query from an Excel <linked> file to a table in access. From what I can tell, the first filed is overflowing with a linked filed numeric of 'Double'. You can't change linked table fields. However when I first link the Excel file, the Append works... :D only when I reboot the PC and start the next day's work, do I get this message... :eek:

1. Should I include in my MACRO an import to a table and then append...? :mad:
2. Is there a trick in the append query I can use to prevent the error...? :rolleyes:

Thanks
MD

Numeric Overflow Error

May 24, 2006

I am linking excel spreadsheets. I am using a spreadsheet as the source to update a database table. I am running an append query.

I have checked all the fields and it seems that they are correct.

It will run one time and then the second time it will produce this error.

If I change something in design view and run it prior to saving it - it will run.

As soon as I close the query and reopen it to run it - it errors.

I read somewhere about optimization and that it may be causing it.
There may be VBA or macro code to assist with this?

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
Bill

I have a numeric field (long integer) in a table. I've set the format to fixed. No matter what I set the decimal places to, auto, 0 or 2, when I enter a value of 0.71, it displays as 1.00

In my form, I've also set the field property to fixed, but it displays the value as 1.

Forms :: Sort Numeric In Alpha-numeric Text

Mar 11, 2014

I have a text field having data i-e HO-1, HO,2, ACW-25 and so on. The field name is nBadge_num and is Unique. The data in this field is sorted automatically like 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 2, 3, 4, 5...because this is the text field.

The number on the form is automatically generated, when the user type HO- for example on field exit event. The last number will generate like HO-5.

Code for automatic number generation is:

Dim dbs As Database, rst As Recordset, Response
Set dbs = CurrentDb
Set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset("SELECT Max(Right([nBadge_Num],Len([nBadge_Num])-" & Len(Me.NBadge_Num) & ")) AS MaxNo " _

[Code]....

My problem is when the number is generated it give HO-5 instead of HO-14, How can I sort the numeric part of the field ?

Numeric Field Entry

May 18, 2005

Trying to do the following:
Having built a table of customers, I need to have an automatically generated ID number for each that IS IN ORDER - which rules out Autonumber and it's gapping tendencies. So, I've developed a new CustID field and set it to "Number", and now just need to figure out how to get it to pull the previous entry and add "1" to it. So it would look like this:

CUSTID NAME
1 Bob
2 Fran
3 Phil
4 Tom
5 (ready for next entry)

Any way to use a function I don't know about, or program some type of solution? Thank you

Wildcard On A Numeric Field

Jun 28, 2005

I have a query that prompts with a parameter box for the field Contributor_ID. Contributor_ID is a numeric field & Key and I use it to allow the user to print a report based on which Contributor_ID value the user enters. This works fine. However, I would like the user to have the option to enter * and then have the report include ALL the contributor IDs. I have done this before on a text field without a problem, however is this not possible on a numeric field as it is not working? I'm trying not to have another version for the ALL option.

If this is not possible, are there any alternatives?

Enter Text Into A Numeric Field

May 14, 2005

I use Access as my grading program at school. Right now, if I want to excuse a student for an assignment, I delete that record.

What I would like to do is put an "X" or some other string into a field that is numeric and Access would ignore that score when computing the average.

A longshot, but I thought I would ask.

Thanks.

Make A Field That Was Numeric / Alphanumeric

Feb 5, 2015

I have a database I have worked on for the sister company of the place I am employed.I have a field I am trying to make alphanumeric that has been numeric. (PO Number on the main form). I had make it alphanumeric a couple of months ago, but it disabled the Edit Customer Information button on the bottom right of the form to where I cant enter shipping addresses and things like that. It should be able to enter multiple shipping addresses.

I need making the PO Number field button alphanumeric and making sure it doesnt mess-up the Edit Customer Information button. I have attached both versions of my database. The GM at the sister company would also like me to create a Spin button where you can take an old record and keep all of the previous information on it, except it gives it a new Work Order# and you can change the date to something newer.

TransferSpreadsheet - Data Conversion Error

Apr 3, 2007

I am importing an Excel file of production data into a table using the TransferSpreadsheet method. Here is a snippet of the code:

DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, , "tblMPSDATA", _
"" & stFilePath & "", True, ""

Everything works fine except the column which contains 'Material' holds both numeric and alpha-numeric values. For example these are both material numbers: 156952 and 1238707-202. The data in this column is formatted as General. The data type for Material in tblMPSDATA is Text, 18 character length. The alpha-numeric materials are all at the end of the file. When I import, an error table is created listing the alpha-numeric materials with the error 'Type Conversion Failure'. But if I have an alpha-numeric material in the first row of data then everything is imported just fine.

I have set up a nice little popup form with a file path and command button for controlling the process of bringing in this data. I really do not want to have to add special instructions about making sure the Excel data is sorted in a certain manner prior to importing. Any thoughts on why Access is not treating everything in this column as text?

Thanks,
JAB

DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet Does Not Export All Fields

Jan 9, 2008

I used the DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet method to export from an Access 2003 table to Excel. The table had around 440 fields but only 230 (column iv) got exported.

Does anybody know whether there is a limitation on the number of fields that can be exported.

Thanks
Claude
