Access Validation Rule Violations on Append Query
- by Jacques Tardie
I'm recieving the following error on trying to run an append query in access.
Microsoft Office Access set .... and it didnt't add... 779280 records(s) due to validation rule violations.
If I choose to run the query anyways, nothing actually happens.
To give some context, I'm simply trying to copy a populated field, consisting of values similar to "16-2009-02, 34-2010-02, et cetera" to another currently unpopulated field.
The fields themselves have no set validation rules, and both have the standard text field options.
I'm hoping to be able to simply remove those hyphens, and fix the issue. But I guess that's what I'm not sure about, are those hyphens actually a problem?
Running SP3 w/ Access 2003.
Thanks in advance!
