I'm somewhat familiar with updating from Excel to Access via VBA. How
can I update to multiple tables in Access that have a one to many
relationship using VBA. Table are linked via key.

tbl_One is one Many with tbl_Two via Foreign Key
tbl_One is one Many with tbl_Three via Foreign Key


Set db = OpenDatabase("C:\LinkedTest\LinkTestDB.mdb")

' open the database
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tbl_One", dbOpenTable)

With rs

..AddNew ' create a new record
' add values to each field in the record
.Fields("TableFieldName2") = Range("A1").Value
.Fields("TableFieldName2") = Range("B1").Value
.Fields("TableFieldName2") = Range("C1").Value

Here I what to updated data to tbl_Two which linked to tbl_One

Here I what to updated data to tbl_Three which linked to tbl_One


.Update ' stores the new record
End With


Thanks

Penny,

After you perform the indert into table1, just do the inserts in tables 2
and 3 the same way.

Or are you looking to find the value of the id (autonumber?) from the Table1
insert ?
If so, you should be able to read it from the Table1 recordset following the
..Update

I'm not sure what the best approach is for this. Here is my code. I
know I'm probably way off. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ok I have started from scratch by rebuilding the tables and code. I
found some information about the (Dmax) function to get the primary
key to add records to the related tables. However I use the function:

pk = DMax("[OpLogJobDataID]", "tbl_OperatorLogJobData")


I get an error:

Complie error:
Sub or Function not defined

But if I assgn pk to the next primary key value

pk = 25


The code works find. I'm stuck any help would be appricated


My New code is below

LP,

I'm not that familiar with DAO (usually use ADO though I know there are some
advantages to using DAO with Access).

In ADO (same in DAO?) you can get the value of the id field (if it's an
autonumber) by reading it back from the recordset after running an insert.

So, if you had a table:
id (autonumber)
otherfield (eg. string)

you can do something like:

'*******************
dim pk

Set rs1 = db.OpenRecordset("tbl_OperatorLogJobData", dbOpenTable)
rs1.AddNew
rs1.Fields("otherfield").value="Blah"
rs1.Update
pk = rs1.Fields("id").value 'should now be populated with the "autonumber"
key
'*******************

Reading the key by running another select on the table is generally not a
great idea, since you can't guarantee another user hasn't inserted a record
and you're then reading *their* key value. I'm not certain this applies in
this case since I'm not that clear on record vs. table locking in Access,
but you can see it would be something best avoided....
