    Comparing values on consecutive dates to return a table

    Thanks MajP but Re-reading my explanation I think I may not have been clear re what I am comparing Perhaps better with an example For each day there is a record for a client, I want to compare the value column with the value from the nearest previous date and check for it being over a...

    Comparing values on consecutive dates to return a table

    Hi all, I think this should be easy but just think where to start! I have a VERY large file that includes a bunch of clients and the daily value of their account. So three columns: CLIENT, DATE, VALUE For various reasons, the extract isn't run each day so the dates will not be consecutive...

    Import Text File Not Bring In Field Names

    I should add that it only happens on this database. I have opened another, imported the same text file and the field names come in fine....

    Import Text File Not Bring In Field Names

    I do this all the time and it has never been a problem! BUT today, when trying to import tables, the field names aren't being brought in. This is despite them being shown in the import wizard. Has anyone come across this before. Have I accidently ticked something. Is it a bug? Is my db safe...

    Sorted! Had nothing to do with it. Some other reference was missing. Thanks for the tip.

    How to tell the last modified date of a text file

    I know where the menu options are. It seems to be bombing out of the compile whenever it hits upon a built-in function eg Date or Left. I am running this at home for the first time today rather than at work. Is there a reference I need to include for it to understand built-in functions?

    How to tell the last modified date of a text file

    Aah. It appears not to like Date. Getting a compile error saying "Can't find project or library". Am I missing a reference?

    How to tell the last modified date of a text file

    Hi Guys, Found this which is very useful to what I am doing. However what I can't work out is how to compare the filedate to today's date to check they are the same. Easy I am sure but having tried Date=FileDateTime("...") I am now stuck. Many thanks in advance, GE

    Excel MSQuery stills links to old file location

    Hi PHV, Indeed I have but I cant work out the simple syntax from the examples. Is it as simple as qt.connection = "C:\temp\mydb.mdb

    Excel MSQuery stills links to old file location

    Hi all, I have a spreadsheet with several worksheets that each have a msquery to access various bits of info from an access database. I then needed to change the location of the access file and so programatically changed the sql in each query to access the correct file. However, I now need to...

    DTPicker - Only Allowing Certain Values

    Hi all, I like the look of DTPicker and want to use it on my form. All works well. What I want to do is gray out values which don't exist in the table ie only allow valid dates to be selected by the user. I can't find anywhere to set this property so am I hoping for too much? At the moment I...

    Comparing, Archiving, Updating.

    Hi guys, I have been struggling with this and now giving in to the masters! I have a table in a database containing customer details that imported from our central system. Occassionally (and if I get this to work properly it could end up daily), I re-import this to ensure it is up to date...

    Making Detail Section Not Visible Before Opening

    All sounds good and I understand what you are suggesting (pleasant change!) but when I put in the me.detail bit, it bombs out saying it can't find the macro me! I have tried all sorts of permutations and I am now very frustrated!

    Making Detail Section Not Visible Before Opening

    Hi all, I have a report with several subreports in it. I want to have a button on a form that allows either the full report to be run or the report with the detail sections hidden (ie just summary data). I have used this line in a module to effect one of the subreports: Reports![Accounts...

    Page Break Between Multiple Reports

    Hi all, I have a number of reports that I have put onto a single master report as subreports so that they all run at the same time and I can PDF just one doc. They all sit on top of each other in the details section. However, I can't work out how to put a page break between them so that each...

    Report Generation Takes Forever

    Don't worry. I found dhookom's advice to someone else to remove the [Page] of [Pages] and it is now instantaneous!
