RE: [MS_AccessPros] Export spec truncating number

 

Thanks Bill. At this point I think it is a moot point since my Oracle folks are telling me it can only be two decimal places to get the file to upload into Oracle. I appreciate your help. I did learn something.

Editing the MSYS table is not really a good idea. It can throw off dependent indices. Edit the spec through the wizard. Just start an export and use that spec. Make sure you set the field to currency with decimal places = 4.

 

If I find a few spare minutes I'll see if I can reproduce this to find out what the exact steps should be but I think what I just said is correct.

Bill,

 

Here is an update. I found the spec in Msysimexcolumns table. The data type shows as 7 (double I think) I changed it to 5 (currency I think). Now the amount is rounding up to .38. I need it to export as .375. There is a validation on the export file before it gets uploaded into Oracle where the price is multiplied by the quantity. This record is kicking out because neither .37 or .38 match the total which was multiplied by .375.

Good morning Bill,

 

The field's data type was double. I changed it to currency but that has no effect at this time. How do I edit the spec? I can't even remember how I created it. It's been too long. :-)

Hi Doyce

 

What is the spec field's data type? Currency should hold 4 decimal places. You probably just have to edit the spec and save it as the same name.

Hello Pros,

I created an export specification years ago that has worked perfectly for about 15 years. It exports a table to a csv file. The table comes from invoice detail. Now for the first time ever, we invoiced something at .375 each instead of whole pennies. When the file is exported, the spec truncates the price to .37 even though the table shows the price correctly as .375. How can I fix this? I know the spec is hidden and I can't remember how I created it in the first place. I have googled this but have only found answers for saving exports. I guess I'm not using the corrct search terms. Here is the code I run to export the table.

DoCmd.TransferText acExportDelim, "ARInvoiceDetailUpload Export Specification", "tblARInvoiceDetailUpload", "N:\Accnting\AR Upload\RSI_AR_INV_LINES_" & Format(Date, "mm_dd_yy") & ".rsl"

Thanks in advance.

Re: [MS_AccessPros] Export spec truncating number

 

Good morning Crystal,


I am able to edit the field values in MsysIMEXColumns table. I changed the data type of the price field from 7 to

5. I got different results when running the export. Double data type gives me .37 truncating the 5. Currency data type rounds the .375 up to .38. Neither results work for this record. I need it to come across as .375. Any ideas?

Doyce

hi Doyce,

show the system tables in the navigation pane. The tables that store import/export specs are:

MsysIMEXspecs
MsysIMEXcolumns

While you cannot modify the tables directly, you can use APPEND queries to add records to those tables -- and you can delete records from them directly. You can probably use UPDATE queries on them too, but what I usually do is

1. make-table from the columns of a spec using MsysIMEXcolumns
2. delete rows from MsysIMEXcolumns for a particular spec
3. modify specs
4. use APPEND query to write records back to MsysIMEXcolumns for a particular spec

have an awesome day,

[MS_AccessPros] new video: Import from Excel

 

hi everyone,

I just posted a video on YouTube that you might like:

import Excel spreadsheet into Access database
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEf7mytSCQ8

Import data from Excel into a Microsoft Access database, change data
types (why it's a good idea to reconsider data type if Double precision
will be used, especially for whole numbers), add new field, create
update query to fill new field. Also learn how to get the full path and
filename of the active workbook in Excel.

have an awesome day,
crystal
