Thanks Andy Can this be totally done with VBA from access without openning the spreadsheeet?

I have a spreadsheet that I am doing a TransferSpreadsheet function from within Access DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, 8, "NewData_tbl", In_File, True but sometimes the top line of the spreadsheet is a blank line which causes a Run-time error '2391' Field 'NoName' doesn't exist in...

Thanks MajP. I set the On load event for my form (Modify_frm) as: Private Sub EditRecords_Click() Dim PWD As String PWD = InputBox("Please enter the sales Order Number that you wish to view...", "", Default, 100, 100) DoCmd.OpenForm "Modify_frm", , , "SO_NO = " & PWD End Sub but I am not...

How do I only display the selected order on the form instead of the whole table?

Thanks for the reply MajP... Perhaps my logic is a little twisted here but I am using a query to create a table of only the items belonging to a specific order that is selected by the user. That table is used as a record source for a form used by the user to edit the items for that specific...

I have a table called TotalOrder_tbl which contains order information. In my database the user can select a button to display order information on a form called Order_frm. On the Open form event for this form, an input box is used to allow the user to enter an order number and then a query...

Thanks Duane- I want to change the hard coded number of "1492198995" with a value that is input from the user with the following variation of the code: Dim PWD As String Dim strSql As String strSql = "Delete * From ViewOrderData_tbl" CurrentDb.Execute strSql PWD = InputBox("Please enter...

That was a good catch and thank you or catching that.. I changed this and now have: strSql = "SELECT * INTO ViewOrderData_tbl FROM Total_NW_tbl WHERE SO_NO=1492198995" Debug.Print strSql CurrentDb.Execute strSql, dbFailOnError but now I am getting a Run-Time error '3010' Table...

Thanks Duane- Same result with the debug.print and dbFailonError - Run-time error '3078' (and nothing shows up in the immediate window.) This is very strange as the error message indicates not finding a table or query and suggests checking the spelling but the exact same SQL statement, when...

I am getting a Run-time error '3078' which states the Microsoft Access database engine cannot find input table or query when I attempt to execute the following code: strSq1 = "SELECT * INTO ViewOrderData_tbl FROM Total_NW_tbl WHERE (((Total_NW_tbl.SO_NO)=1492198995))" CurrentDb.Execute strSql...

Hi Andy I just tried your code, and found that if "Test" is placed in Me.OldPWD then the Message Box= "Your OldPWD is 'test'" and if if "TEST" is placed in Me.OldPWD then the Message Box= "Your OldPWD is 'test'" I am looking for a way that can determine if each letter in a string matches the...

I have a question about Case sensitive string comparisons... I have a form with a text box called OldPWD that I entered "Test" into and with the code below I am comparing this to "test" and the result is 0 which indicates that they are equal. If I enter "TEST" (all caps) into the OldPWD text...

Thank you MajP and Duane for your suggestions. Turns out I messed up as the parts on the form that I wanted to requery were subforms... so once I remembered that I have to handle them separately I simply put the following into the close event of the form and all is well...

I tried the following but it doesn't seem to have any affect on form OrderMenu_frm: Forms!OrderMenu_frm.Requery DoCmd.Close End Sub

Thanks Duane- That method would add a couple additional messages boxes and I am wondering if might it be cleaner for the user if I was to add the same code under my Discard button as I have under my Get New Order button on the first form and then do a requery of the first form before closing...
