I know SQL_Server does it.
Is there an MS_Access option that'll show NULL fields as something other than blank?
Zero-Length would look like " "
Space would look like " "
NULL would look something like "<<null>>".
I have a DB with poor NULL handling and it would be a huge...
I am using SSRS and Visual Studio 2012.
I had to completely rebuild a subreport (major changes in data content, etc.) but it still uses the same parameters (from/to dates). I created it, verified it, exported it to EXCEL -- it was 100%. I added it as a subreport to my main report.
When I...
SUCCESS!!!
I had been getting a row of ######## as wide as the cell (in some rows, not all!), had it set for autofit and text-wrap, but kept getting only that one row of #########.
Some of my comments are a dozen lines long and some change daily, so manually inserting alt-enters just cannot...
I am writing a DTS package that'll acquire data from an Oracle database to make SQL updates. The first step is a data-transformation into an existing SQL table. I used a SQL statement as the source (one source table with 8 left joins).
My problem: no matter how I write it, I get an error...
I did not even know how to search for this, though I did try...
I am using Access_2000 to collect user data. When done, I insert it into a SQL_2000 table. Access PRICE field is Currency, and the SQL field PRICE is Float. I am moving the data with a simple append query.
The kicker...
Found it on the 10th search of Seagate's support system!
1) Delete the group
2) Re-Insert the group
It now sorts correctly.
I don't get the logic of it, but it DID work...
Turk:
No, its a SQL datetime. I figured if it was a text I'd see the date in month and date order, but nope!. I can determine NO form of order -- not even DAY (Fri, Mon, SAt, Sun...)
Ms. Vampire : (like the ID! [wink] )
I checked, and they are set that way. I also checked keep-together and repeat-on-new-page. No difference.
Spooky, no?
I created a new report (CRW version 7.1) that takes in a single record-set (MS SQL view, unsorted) and prints a summary (summarising transactions by COUNTRY within DATE).
I set the details up for the records and suppressed it. The Date and the Country fields ARE in the suppressed detail. I...
I need to pull the "TOP n" of a table, based on simple criteria (like Top 3 Salarys of employees, where Department = X). I know I can set "n" easily in design-mode, but this I need to run by form by a user who won't know Access. The "n" will always change (Top 5...
OK, I am back.
I made a number of tests, and did a bit of research.
I have ruled out the import, as the days this last one appeared the imports-preson was in Omaha.
But the fact still sticks in my craw that the last chinese-character record I got had a whacked Autonum. ((to clarify, the...
JIM:
Thanks for helping!
Yes, the "invoice number" is used throughout the company's processes. Trying to change it to something else would be unacceptable to them, and I fear quite foolhardy. I fully plan on checking for unacceptable values (nulls, dups, etc.) and making the thing...
WildHare:
Thanks for responding! Unfortunately, this field is used as their Invoice#. So obviously I cannot delete it. Would reforming it as LONG and defaulting it to a "DMax+1" do the trick?
There are NO defined relationships, either in the data half or the forms half.
How did...
I inherited an Access97 datatbase, where the primary transaction table has large records. its ID# is a Long-Integer AUTONUM. It is NOT a key or an index.
Occasionally, a record gets created where it has a dupliate ID#, somewhere in the middle, not the last-number. Almost always, the rest of...
I am getting the same problem, now. It happens occasionally and erratically. Invariably, there are mostly oriental and non-sensical characters in these duplicate records.
Did anyone effectively resolve/prevent this?
I need to simultaneously preview the same report several times, each with a different filter. Then the user shall close or print the open report(s) they desire.
I created a button that does the series of "DoCmd.OpenReport" commands, each with a different filter. The code compiles...
