Access Help

I am new to building an Access Database so please forgive me for some of the questions I will ask.

Currently, I am trying to build a form with Access 2003 that will allow my Senior representatives to log the type of contact that they had with our customer service reps.

I have created several drop down boxes that the Senior representative will select based on information obtained from the other reps.

My situation is this ... I have created a "Save" button and what I want this button to do is to save the record and then clear the form at the same time so that the next time the Senior has to answer a question, the form is blank.

I have attached screen shots of the form and then the coding for the "save" button as well.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Need help with Update in VBA

$

I have a database which receives periodic updates in the form of a table that is downloaded and sent to me. Previously there has been an extensive process (in Excel) that is needed in order to get this table ready to be used in the database and I am working to automate as much of this as possible. I am stuck with the following process:
The table arrives with one record per position code and indicates how many positions are authorized. I need to expand the table so that there is one position record to be linked with one person record. What I want to do is create a Do Until..Loop process that copies the first record (lets say it has authorization for 3 positions) and decrements a position counter and then updates a field called 'PosNbr' of the NEW record so that I end up with two more records for this position that are numbered 2 and 1. That way I can create a concatenated ident field for tracking position 1 of 3, etc.

I have been able to do each of the processes (copy, append and update) separately, but have not been able to combine them so that they loop correctly. My code is below. I have some lines remarked out while I am testing.

Thanks for any help you can provide.


Private Sub Updatetbl_Click()

Dim PNbr As Integer
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim varBookmark As Variant


'These next 3 lines are used to create the new TDA table,
'insert the records where there is only 1 position, delete those
'records from the original, and update the PosNbr field to 1

rather than using something like phpmyadmin.

Also do DB admins use phpmyadmin (forgive me if thats a dumb question) or do they use command line, if they dont use command line, what do they use, the ones who use mysql anyway?

Also does anyone know of any good free online guides that teach mysql using command line?

High buffer gets vs performance

$
0

We have noticed that one of INSERT statement has been taking longer time than earlier to get executed. DBA's has done some profiling and provided me
with some stats for a three hour window ( INSERT statement execition was longer this 3 hr window)
Below are readings for 3 SQL statements. We noticed that the first two select queries got higher number of buffer gets.
These 2 SQL statements were not unexpected to run during that window. So, i wanted to figure these 2 select statements had an adverse affects on the INSERT statement.

Please note that the database is oracle 10g.

My Questions:
1. 126631 value for buffer gets/execution is really too high??
2. Can this impact the performance of the other SQL statements (like Insert statements) running on the same database on different tables?
Because we noticed during this period one of the INSERT statement was taking more time. The log file sync wait event (18ms) was listed in the TOP 5 events during this period



Select SQL1

Buffer Gets: 371,031,088
Executions: 2,930

Filter Multi Value Field by selected only

Hello All and thanks for any help you can provide

I have a form that has a MVF in it, originally I had the MVF set as text in the table, but had to convert it to a number field to make it web compatible.
Before I converted to a number field I've been able to only show the selected Comments within the MVF for the current record.
I still can do that (see picture link) but I can't for the life of me figure out how to not only show the CommentID but also the
actual Comment next to it. Setting Column Count to 2 does not work, it only shows the ID again in the second column.

The goal is to have the top List box only show the selected for the current record with the "comment name", and have the bottom list box for adding or deleting any comments. The reason for this is so the user has a simple view of the comments related to the current record, and not have to scroll through the long list on the bottom.

Any help you can provide with this would be great. Thank You.

Sql server log shipping

$

0
Hi,

We have a business application using SQL Server 2005 with a considerably big DB size (almost 80GB) . We have configured a DR setup to copy data from primary database (PR) to the DR server with SQL Server LOG SHIPPING method. The PR data is log shipped on an interval of 15 minutes to the DR Sql Server DB. The problem we are facing is at times the transaction log file of the PR server grows beyond a limit and impacts normal application performance resulting in the application becomes non-responsive. To bring it to normal stage we have to then forcefully run Transaction log backup with truncate only command which reduces the transaction log backup size. But then this impacts our DR setup Log Shipping jobs and it breaks/stops to carry out DR log shipping. :confused:

I need help on how to keep the DR setup in sync throughout and keep the transaction log backup at lower space.

Thanks for you advice.

Rgds.

formatting phone number data

I have a phone number field in my database. It's a text field, no input mask in the table itself. There is an input mask in the form that's used to enter data.

Some of the phone numbers were dumped into the database and are formatted like this:
1234567890

The rest of the phone numbers were formatted like this and are being entered like this:
(123) 456-7890

I want all of the numbers to be stored the second way. How do I convert the formatting of the numbers in the first example to the formatting of the second example (in the table) so that the formatting is uniform?

Hi experts.
I wanna make a pivot but the only example that i've fount is with a nombre using DECODE. The table has got this fields:

ID_DATO_COMUN_CON....CVE_EVENTO.......XML_PATH

I need to get

CVE_EVENTO........FIELD1.........FIELD2........... ..FIELD3...........FIELD4
-------------- ------------ -------------- ------------- --------------
....10036..........FIRST PATH...SECOND PATH...THITRD PATH...FOURTH PATH

I've tried with this:

Code:

SELECT

DECODE(ID_DATO_COMUN_CON,2,xml_path) AS Q2,
DECODE(ID_DATO_COMUN_CON,3,xml_path) AS Q3,
DECODE(ID_DATO_COMUN_CON,4,xml_path) AS Q4
FROM TABLE where id_dato_comun_con in (1,2,3,4)
and cve_evento = 10036

And I get it:


CVE_EVENTO........FIELD1...........FIELD2......... ...FIELD3............FIELD4
-------------- ------------ -------------- ------------- --------------

Java routine - debug mode?

$

From IBM Security Bulletin: Buffer Overflow Vulnerability in IBM DB2 SQL/PSM Stored Procedure Infrastructure (CVE-2012-4826). - United States :

"If there already exists debuggable SQL/PSM Stored Procedures then the only prevention is to drop and recreate them without debug mode enabled."


IBM DB2 9.7 Information Center for Linux, UNIX, and Windows mentions:

"For Java routines, the DEBUG_MODE setting does not indicate whether the Java routine was actually compiled in debug mode, or whether a debug Jar was installed at the server."

How can I check if a Java SP is debuggable or not?

timestamp in proxy tables ?

$
0
0
Hello everyone,

I have a proxy table in IQ (12.7) that points to another one in ASE(15.0). The one in ASE has several datetime columns. The corresponding IQ datatype for datetime is timestamp and the proxy table displays those values totally different and invalid.
Example of values from ASE :

id date_value
1 2012-09-18 09:06:13
2 2012-09-18 09:06:13
3 2012-09-18 09:06:13
4 2012-09-18 09:06:13
5 2012-09-18 09:06:13

Values displayed in ProxyTable in IQ :

id date_value
1 3203-10-23 16:51:03
2 3203-10-23 16:51:03
3 3203-10-23 16:51:03
4 3203-10-23 16:51:03
5 3203-10-23 16:51:03


Does anyone know why this strange conversion happens and perhaps a proper way to fix it.
One solution would be to store the actual date as a varchar (after a proper conversion so that it holds the date to the millisecond) but that's quite a hack.


Addon : This only happens when proxy tables are involved. Bulk insert (into location) works fine between ASE -> IQ.

Thank you,
Sorin
