I got this:
"vba runtime error, cannot save the attachment. path does not exist. verify the path is correct"
I use this:
Sub Save_Outlook_Attachements_Calls()
Dim ol As Outlook.Application
Dim ns As Outlook.Namespace
Dim callfol As Outlook.Folder
Dim salefol As Outlook.Folder
Dim i As Object
Dim mi As Outlook.MailItem
Dim at As Outlook.Attachment
Dim fPat As String
fPat = ThisWorkbook.Path
Set ol = New Outlook.Application
Set ns = ol.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set callfol = ns.Folders("xxx.xxx#xxx.com").Folders("OutlookData").Folders("Calls")
For Each i In callfol.Items
If i.Class = olMail Then
Set mi = i
If mi.Attachments.Count > 0 And Format(mi.ReceivedTime, "yyyy-mm-dd") = Format(Date, "yyyy-mm-dd") Then
For Each at In mi.Attachments
'------------ ------------
at.SaveAsFile (fPat & "\Outlookdata\calls\" & Date & "." & FSO.GetExtensionName(fPat & "\Outlookdata\calls\" & at.Filename))
Next at
End If
End If
Next i
End Sub
It's the Row in the end that gets the error message:
Starting with "at.SaveAsFile (fPat &"
I have checked what the variabel "Fpat" contains, and its "H:\VBA"
So its like it always has been, and the server still called H:
All of that has been working perfect, but suddenly it doesn't?
Its a server map, but i can reach it in the file explorer like normal.
I have restarted the pc :) but error persists.
Any suggestions?
I solved it, i had changed the windows system language to English last week, not just the programs, in which already is in english.
That made the date variable im using to the format 2022/06/20, ie: "/" and that cannot be used in a file name..
i never thought i would find it by my self :)

I'm new to Access and thank you for reading this first.
I'm exporting a query in Access to a pipe delimited CSV file. The query is from a table which is ODBCed from SQL.
I've been getting for the line dbs.Recordset : Method or data member not found error.
Huge thanks for any suggestion to fix this.

Thank you so so much for your time and please leave any comment below for any clarification if needed. I will try my best to be responsive!
Office 15.0 object library is the one you need to include in the references for O365 objects or Office 2013 Access VBA
The error says "The field is too small to accept the amount of data you attempted to add. Try inserting or pasting less data."
The database is supposed to pull in information from the Excel sheet that is passed through to it, and import the information into a recordset of the text field. However, the text field, somewhere down the line, has been limited to 50 characters. How can I change the maximum size of the text field? Thank you for any help
This is just part of the code, and the textfield I'm trying to make larger is "Idea_#", which is the last line of the code i posted

........
In Access, open tbl_recomendations in Design View. It sounds like the Field Size property for Idea_# is set at 50. You can change that up to 255.
If you need to store more than 255 characters in Idea_#, change its Data Type from Text to Memo.
You all have been so helpful, and I was wondering whether I might trouble you a bit more. I have nearly completed my conversion from VB.net to VBA for Outlook, and in order to complete that, I need some information on what exactly a particular piece of code is returning. If you all can help out with that, the problem may go away; if not, I might need some help on this invalid qualifier error.
From what I understand, I declare an 'array' in VBA with a command like this:
Dim Computers(1, 1) As String
Which produces a 2x2 array. I then try to fill it like this:
Computers.Add ComputerName, ErrorState
where ComputerName and ErrorState are variables which I have already filled. This results in the error. I will provide you with the entire relevant section below. I need to know how many relevant items are in the outlook inbox, which means checking if they were sent on today's date and by the correct sender. I need this in order to get the correct dimensions on the array Computers. (The array is filled in right now as I know the correct dimensions, but in practise I will not.) I took a piece of code which I found through google, the Scripting Dictionary output, but I do not fully understand it. I need just the number of emails, without any irrelevant text, and I was hoping that the debug line would be able to tell me which command I would need to return the number and nothing else. Unfortunately, because of the above error, I cannot get to this line. Even by stepping through the code, the very first thing it tells me is that there is a problem here. The entire relevant section is below. I know that the formatting is problematic, but I have only been working with VB.NET for 4 days, and this is my second day of working with VBA, so I do not quite have everything down yet. There's some irrelevant stuff in here, I'm pretty sure, but I do not have the experience to make the call of whether something is relevant or not, so I left it all. Sorry for the length!

This website has been incredibly helpful as not only a place for me to ask questions but also as a place for me to find relevant information without having to trouble you all. Unfortunately, it is all too often that I do have to trouble you all, but every time you have been very kind and helpful. And I would like to thank you for that.
you're trying to use the Add() method from a Collection to assign an element in an array. To assign an element in a 2-D array you'd use arr(a,b)=someValue where a and b are numeric values. – Tim Williams
Question with no answers, but issue solved in the comments
I have put together a procedure to cycle through a table containing paths to text files and import them into the database.
Reason for procedure:
The reason for this is I am building a back end to many reporting databases that rely on nightly updated text files. Recently they changed the server name and file names for these files, so I'm trying to build something more reliable so I don't have to run through the link table wizard making sure all the data types are exactly the same as before.
Issue:
The issue I have is the With .edit .update isn't acting like I thought it should and updating the field 'Updated' in the table to today's date.
Here is the code. I'm still new to programming, so apologies.
Private Sub ImportAll()
' Loops through table containing paths to text files on network and imports
Dim ID As Integer
Dim netPath As String
Dim netDir As String
Dim netFile As String
Dim localTable As String
Dim activeTable As Boolean
Dim updatedTable As Date
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Tables")
Do Until rst.EOF
ID = rst.Fields("Table ID").Value
netDir = rst.Fields("Network Location").Value
netFile = rst.Fields("File Name").Value
localTable = rst.Fields("Local Table Name").Value
activeTable = rst.Fields("Active").Value
updatedTable = rst.Fields("Updated").Value
If activeTable = True And updatedTable <> Date Then
If ifTableExists(localTable) Then
On Error GoTo ImportData_Err
CurrentDb.Execute "DELETE * FROM " & localTable, dbFailOnError
netPath = netDir & netFile
DoCmd.TransferText acImportDelim, , localTable, netPath, True, ""
rst.Edit
updatedTable = Date
rst.Update
Else
netPath = netDir & netFile
DoCmd.TransferText acImportDelim, , localTable, netPath, True, ""
With rs
.Edit
.Fields("Updated") = Date
.Update
End With
End If
End If
rst.MoveNext
Loop
rst.Close
Set rst = Nothing
ImportData_Exit:
Exit Sub
ImportData_Err:
MsgBox Error$
Resume ImportData_Exit
End Sub
Thank you.
Where you have
With rs
You meant
With rst
Mistakes such as this can be caught by turning on Option Explicit. Option Explicit means that all variables must be declared.
See here: How do I force VBA/Access to require variables to be defined?
I am trying to send some files from a folder to a fixed email address, the files need to be sent in individual emails, the file names are random.
This topic got me started:
Send individual emails to predefined set of people with all files in a folder
I altered the code a tiny bit to suit my needs, but when I run the macro it isn't sending the files. I'm sure its a simple mistake but my knowledge is limited!
This is my code:
Option Explicit
Const SOURCE_FOLDER As String = "C:\Users\Me\Desktop\Test"
Const RECIP_A As String = "me#hotmail.com"
Const EMAIL_BODY As String = "Please find attached file. Thanks and Regards, ABC"
Sub SendPDFs()
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
Dim fileName As String
fileName = Dir(SOURCE_FOLDER)
Do While Len(fileName) > 0
Call CreateEmail(SOURCE_FOLDER & fileName)
fileName = Dir
Loop
ProgramExit:
Exit Sub
ErrorHandler:
MsgBox Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description
Resume ProgramExit
End Sub
Function CreateEmail(fileName As String)
Dim olApp As Outlook.Application
Dim msg As Outlook.MailItem
' create email
Set olApp = Outlook.Application
Set msg = olApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
' set properties
With msg
.Body = EMAIL_BODY
.Recipients.Add (RECIP_A)
.Attachments.Add fileName
.Send
End With
End Function
Ah! The only problem with the code is
Const SOURCE_FOLDER As String = "C:\Users\Me\Desktop\Test"
Change that to
Const SOURCE_FOLDER As String = "C:\Users\Me\Desktop\Test\"
Now try it. I tried and tested it and it works.
Also ensure that you have added reference to the Outlook object library.
