I've imported a txt list into Access which has some rows that look
like:
0000 0100 CH Saze National Msr 1 M CH 4460b 4750x 4800q 5945b
6030b 6125s 7275b 7290b
9500s 9630q 9675b 9845b
0025 0130 SG Niskale V BNN 11720s 11750s
11760s 11925L
11960b 12045b 13610n
13700L 15550b
Now I'm wondering whether would be possible to automatically update the
rows which has some blank fields with its appropriate information
(that's the same stuff as in the first and fourth row).
Of course, most of the rows has all the fields properly filled up, it's
just too cumbersome and time consuming to fill the blanks by hand.
Thank you in advance for your aid!

I can't tell if the data is just a string of text or whether it is separated
into fields in a table, but I'll assume the latter. In your example, it
looks like you either have all the fields or just the last field. Is this
always the case? If it is, then you can run an update query. Select field1
and field4 (or whatever the last field is called) in the query builder.
Under field4, set the criteria to "is null" (no quotes) and set the update
to box to [field1] (with brackets). Under field1, set the "update to" box
to "null", (no quotes).

The data is separated into fields in a table which always will, either,
have all the fields or just the last one.
In the following example:
AAA BBB CCC 123
DDD EEE FFF 456
579
333
GGG HHH III 789
In this case registers which have in the last field 579 and 333 are the
ones to be updated. What I need is to "write" DDD EEE FFF into the
three separate blank (null) fields on both registers.
A register having blank (null) fields will always need to be updated
with the same information as the preceeding one.
What expression I must write on the update query in order to perform
it?
Thank you in advance!
I'm wondering whether it is actually possible to do so.

It's possible. I just didn't think it was right to tell you how to do
it.
See: http://groups.google.com/group/comp....ff3f71a41b982a
If you can, change your input forms so that this doesn't happen
anymore.

Hi, all. I'd like to do the following, preferably *without* resorting to
JavaScript:
I have a long, dynamically-generated form questionnaire. Not all of the
form fields are dynamically generated, though.
I'd like to capture the NAME of every HTML form field element on the
server, even if that element is submitted blank. The trouble is, with,
say, radio buttons or checkboxes for example, a *blank* element does not
get submitted at all.

How do the form filling software determine which text field gets what
data i.e. a typical form filling software will ask the user to enter

relevant data to the most appropriate text field. How does it decide
that?

Dear fellow Access 2000 users:
I have a table where there are 5 columns and thousands of rows of
data. Every so often, there is missing data in the second and third
column. I wanted to write some code that would, when it came to a
blank "cell" in column two or three, to simply copy whatever was in
the cell above it.
For instance, here is an example of a few rows before the code is run:

Hello
I have a letter template in Word that has some blanks. I want to populate these blank spaces with fields from the database. These blanks are:
client name
client address
appointment date
practitioner (sender of the letter)
Ideally, I'd like to add a button to a form and when a user clicks it, it will take the information from the fields in that specific record and fill in the blanks of the letter template.

All the browsers I tested are filling two fields that aren't for logging in, both have different names from the ones on the login form, and eventhough, the browsers fill them, I have read that removing the value tag instead of just writing empty would resolve the problem, but the value tag is already absent from my fields.
PS : Just to mention that my fields have text and password as types.
How can I avoid that ? Does anyone know...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
