How to bypass msgbox for PK violations on TransferText import?

ms
In Access 2000, I am using...

'Import Raw text to stageBMIDLog table.
DoCmd.TransferT ext acImportFixed, "BMIDLog Link Specification",
"stageBMIDL og", file

....to import raw records into a staging table with 3-key PK. When duplicates
are attempting import, I receive a msgbox stating the number of records that
violated the PK and asks if I want to continue.

How do I remove that msgbox and complete the rest of the import? I want this
import to complete in the background automatically.

Thank you.

I have discovered a couple of years ago, that import with DoCMD.TransferText for CSV text file doesn’t work in Acc2000, while it works perfectly in ACC97. which has been discussed on this newsgroup forum, so this fact was fixed. Since I have to transfer files from VMS( SAS ) to WIN (Access), I still keep using ACC97 as a simplest and reliable tool. However, final products, such as distributable data entry system for multi central...

Not that up on MS Access. I understand that the TransferText command can be used to import csv files into a database. Question: Does the text file have to mirror the alignment of the table columns e.g. must field1, field2, filed3 etc correspond to col1, col2, col3 on the table? or can I state somewhere which columns in the text file correspond to which table columns. I actually need col1, col2, col5 and col6 from the text file to populate...

I am a pretty saavy user, but I am having a real problem with the DoCmd.TransferText operation. I manually used the File>Get External Data> Import routine to set up an import specification. It works like a champ everytime it's run. If I use VBA to execute a TransferText and specify the specfile, I get a Type Conversion Error on import and a table full of empty records (equal to the number of lines in my import data file). My data...

I have a strange problem linking tab delimited text files in Access 2000 (I am running Windows XP), please try this and let me know if I am going mad. Step 1. Create the tab-delimited text file below in WordPad and call the file "HeaderYES.txt" (the space between the two fields is actually a tab):- "Column1" "Column2" 1 "Line1"

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
