Must # of fields in the 2 tables in an Append Query be equal?
I am trying the use a query to modify some data and append the modified data
to an existing table. The source table has forty some field. The destination table has seven fields. I keep getting the “INSERT INTO statement contains the following field name: ‘Owner`”. Make sure you have typed the name correctly, and try the operation again.” Do the two tables have to have the exact same number of fields to move data? What am I over looking? |

The tables don't have to have the same number of fields, but in your query
you should select from the source table only those fields that you intend to append to the target table. If there are fields in the source table that you don't intend to append to the target table, don't select those fields in the query. If you're still stuck after reading this, try posting the SQL for the query (in query design view, select SQL View from the View menu). -- Brendan Reynolds (MVP) http://brenreyn.blogspot.com The spammers and script-kiddies have succeeded in making it impossible for me to use a real e-mail address in public newsgroups.

I am struggling with Access; I barely understand SGL, and I am not using SGL (directly). From someplace in the Access Query Design, there is this SGL coding: INSERT INTO [tbl-Streets] ( Jurisdiction, Source, [Number], Alpha, Street, Type, ID, MapNumber ) SELECT [qry-ConvertingRawFCBP'sToBuildingPermits-QueryOnly].*, [qry-ConvertingRawFCBP'sToBuildingPermits-QueryOnly].Jurisdiction, [qry-ConvertingRawFCBP'sToBuildingPermits-QueryOnly].Source, [qry-ConvertingRawFCBP'sToBuildingPermits-QueryOnly].Number, [qry-ConvertingRawFCBP'sToBuildingPermits-QueryOnly].Alpha, [qry-ConvertingRawFCBP'sToBuildingPermits-QueryOnly].Street, [qry-ConvertingRawFCBP'sToBuildingPermits-QueryOnly].Type, [qry-ConvertingRawFCBP'sToBuildingPermits-QueryOnly].ID, [qry-ConvertingRawFCBP'sToBuildingPermits-QueryOnly].MapNumber FROM [qry-ConvertingRawFCBP'sToBuildingPermits-QueryOnly]; The above SGL instruction was created by using the Access Query Design and Expression Builder. When I try to run this query, I get the error message “INSERT INTO statement contains the following field name: ‘Owner`”. Make sure you have typed the name correctly, and try the operation again.” When I add the field “Owner,” the next field in the source data but not used in destination table appears in the error statement.

It's SQL, not SGL. The problem is the first line in the SELECT clause, the
line ending with "*". The "*" tells Access to include all fields. The key is that the number of target fields between the parentheses in the INSERT INTO clause (Jurisdiction, Source, [Number], Alpha, Street, Type, ID, MapNumber) must match the number of source fields in the SELECT clause. Take out the line ending with the "*" ([qry-ConvertingRawFCBP'sToBildingPermits-QueryOnly'.*,) so that the SQL looks like this ... INSERT INTO [tbl-Streets] (Jurisdiction, Source, [Number], Alpha, Street, Type, ID, MapNumber) SELECT [qry-ConvertingRawFCBP'sToBuildingPermits-QueryOnly.Jurisdiction, [qry-ConvertingRawFCBP'sToBuildingPermits-QueryOnly].Source, etc. -- Brendan Reynolds (MVP) http://brenreyn.blogspot.com The spammers and script-kiddies have succeeded in making it impossible for me to use a real e-mail address in public newsgroups.

"CreativeImages" wrote in message ... I am trying the use a query to modify some data and append the modified data to an existing table. The source table has forty some field. The destination table has seven fields. I keep getting the "INSERT INTO statement contains the following field name: 'Owner`". Make sure you have typed the name correctly, and try the operation again." Do the two tables have to have the exact same number of fields to move data? What am I over looking? |
