  • hi.. its a lovely video and i am learning a lot about access. midway at 06:43 in this video i am also getting a similar error message stating "Query input must contain at least one table or query" .. i followed your suggestions but the error message doesnt seem to go.. and i am stuck there.. i have tried to use a small data and the error message is still there.. i will be glad if you could give me some more suggestions... i already tried unchecking the box @04:02 .. the issue still exists.. ty

  • @djxcoo I would recommend that you play with your incoming data and try to narrow down where the problem is. Eliminate columns one at a time from your import and table analyzer wizard until it works. Then, when it does work, look at the column that you last eliminated, and ask yourself if there any special characters in the column name or data or anything that looks out of the ordinary. There might be something in your data or table structure that is breaking the wizard behind the scenes.

  • hello djdates i'm @6:43 of your video, I tried to follow the steps before that point. Unfortunately, I got a error message saying "Query input must contain at least one table or query" and then I cannot continue. What do you think am I missing here? need to learn this for my work. Thanks alot for the vids also

  • @TheMrScribbler Try unchecking the box @4:02 that says that the first row contains field names. Perhaps there is a weird character in one of your field names that is causing a problem.

  • can't delete the raw source (lookup in access 2010)

  • @GogromaT Can you change the Control Display field to a Text Box? Changing this to Text Box is actually better, because just deleting the Row Source means that the field simply becomes a broken Lookup Field. Lookup fields are unique to Access, so my knowledge about them is pretty limited.

see all
