Hi,
I have an MS Access app which lets me create a new product by copying
data from another selected product.
All works fine, except one of the copy updates which I cannot fathom.
The code creates a new product and copies over the parent data from the
other product first.
Then related data from other tables is copied accross using the new
Product_ID. ok
One of the relate records 'specifications ' are copied accross to the
new Product.
The problem is that Specifications also have a related sub table called
Specification-details.
On my app, you select a product and then select the specifications form
from a combo.
On this specifications form, there is the Specification data in a
continuous format, and another sub-form with specification_d etails.
When you click on a specification, the relevant specification_d etail
appears in the sub-form below. This is pretty standard.
The problem I am having is copying the Specification_d etails to the new
product.
---------------------------------------------------
Specification Table has the following fields:
specification_I D (Autonumber)
product_ID (Number)
specification_h eader (Text)
Specification_d etail Table has the following fields:
specification_d etail_ID (Autonumber)
specification_d etail_text (Text)
specification_I D (Number) related to Specification table !
--------------------------------------------------------
This code copies the parent 'Specifications ' over to the new product
and works great.
(NewProductCode = the new Product_ID)
(currentid = The Product_ID of the product to copy)
MySql4 = "INSERT INTO Specifications (product_ID, specification_h eader)
"
MySql4 = MySql4 & "SELECT " & NewProductCode & " as NewProductID,
Specifications. specification_h eader FROM Specifications "
MySql4 = MySql4 & "WHERE Specifications. product_ID = " & currentid
db.Execute MySql4, dbFailOnError
----------------------------------------------------------
How do I copy the related 'Specification_ details' over to the new
product as there is no Product_ID in this table. The related field is
'Specification_ ID'
Appreciate all your help
Thanks in advance

So walk down the relationships - grab the PK of the parent record of
Specification_d etails, and then use an append query with that PK/FK as
the filter, and then append to the table it should go in. if you're
missing records or something hasn't saved, well then deal with that
problem first - force Access to save the record. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

Hi:
I have set up a table, and a temporary copy of the table which I wish to use for some
processing. I have found that using a query to empty the ORIGINAL table, the copy of the
table gets emptied too.
Both are in the same dfatabase and have different names.
Can someone tell me how to breath that irritating link!
