Solved Insert xml data from responsetext to table in access with VBA (1 Viewer)

[john_gringo]

I am new to Access and VBA.
I'm POSTing some data using the bellow code I receive an XML response.

Sub POSTreq()
    Dim req As New MSXML2.XMLHTTP60

    Dim Rst As Recordset
    Dim Tbl As String
    Dim restxt As String

From the following XML response, I need to extract UID and MARK and update table fields. The criteria for the update is <index> number.


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ResponseDoc xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<response>
<index>1</index>
<invoiceUid>BAC9861A68546E5F7D2E7E0AF052E3F443B5174D</invoiceUid>
<invoiceMark>400001851984363</invoiceMark>
<statusCode>Success</statusCode>
</response>
</ResponseDoc>

Any help will be much appreciated

So the idea is to save the responce to file first then open the file and use it to update the table?

 

[arnelgp]

yes, only the portion of the response text is saved to the file.
then open the file and read, line by line.

 

[john_gringo]

I appreciate your help arnelgp.
Will try and let you know of the results later........then I can buy you a beer

 

[john_gringo]

Man, you show me the way.

I paste the code inside my code (at the end of the loop after "req.send myData") and I receive the following errors:

1. duplicate declaration in current scope for
Dim DB As DAO.Database
When I put a ' before it I receive the next error as it is already declered

2. sub or function not defined for
"If Intr(1, s, "<index>") Then"
I update it to InStr for every Intr in the code as I realize that this was the issue and the next error occurs

3. I updated the line with the table update SQL to:
db.Execute "update invoices set Invoices.UID =" & UID & "Invoices.MARK = " & Mark & " WHERE (((Invoices.InvID)= " & idx & "));"
and I receive the following error: Too few parameters. Expected 1

It looks that we are so close to the solution but I can't find the error. I do really appreciate your time.

 

[john_gringo]

Also, Can I save the responseText text to a specific folder in C:\

 

[arnelgp]

what is the Datatype of UID and Mark on your table?
if they are Short String:

db.Execute "update invoices set Invoices.UID ='" & UID & "', Invoices.MARK = '" & Mark & "' WHERE ((Invoices.InvID)= " & idx & ");"

 

[john_gringo]

Yes this works
db.Execute "update invoices set Invoices.UID ='" & UID & "', Invoices.MARK = '" & Mark & "' WHERE ((Invoices.InvID)= " & idx & ");"
as UID is a short text and MARK is a number

 

[john_gringo]

Can I save the file to a specific folder instead of temp
Like sFile = Environ$("c:\") & "\test.txt" instead of sFile = Environ$("Temp") & "\test.txt"
It is not seems to work, should i change something else?

 

[john_gringo]

also, the .txt file in the temp folder is empty..???? and there is no update in the table with no error.

Should I add any references?

 

[arnelgp]

you hardcode it:

sFile = "c:\"test.txt"

just make sure you have Write access to the Root folder (C:\).

there is no update in the table with no error.

press F9 on your code to add breakpoint. run your sub/function.
when it stops, press F8 and inspect the value of each variables (idx, UID, mark).
if possible write the values. and compare it latter to your table if
it has a match.
remember we are Updating record and not Inserting New one.

 

[john_gringo]

sFile = "c:\"test.txt"
But this will overwrite the old one I'd like to keep all files

 

[john_gringo]

yes, my friend.....It worked.......
You are awesome........
