I have a continuous form based on a query.
I''ve added a combo box unbound, and the problem is that any data I enter in any cb are repeated in every record.
Any ideas how to avoid that?
Beginner with Access 2010 - making additions to one field in a JunctionTable. Need to extend a field by adding some new numbers but have found it easier to Export to Excel - make changes and replace in accdb.
I have found an Excel formula that does what I want but starts from the number "1".
=INT((ROW()-1)/9)+1
Which starts with number "1" and repeats this 8 times then increments by one and repeats 8 times.
But I want to start with a number of choice (7270 and go to 9028). Have seen some VBA versions but none give me control of the start number. I am then able to update the second empty field on the JunctionTable from a query. (this is a fixed number).
I read a lot for work and the material is from many different disciplines. To keep track of all this information, I set up a simple db to keep track of all my references and have fields containing various bits of information for each record. In the beginning, I assigned one keyword to each reference as a means of retrieving articles on related subjects. Over time it has grown to three keywords per record although some of the keyword fields are null. All keywords are in a single, separate table and I add a keyword to a record from a pick-list. When I increased the number of keyword fields to three in tblCatalog, I just added more links to tblKeyword. Now, I am having a tough time trying to query tblCatalog. Obviously, my basic db organization is not right so I am looking for suggestions on how to straighten out this mess. Here is what I would like to do:
* During data entry, select form one to three keywords for each record
* During data retrieval, concatenate all the keywords (one, two or three) and
list the resulting text in a single control on a form.
This seems like it ought to be easy but not today. There must be something fundamental that I do not understand.
Hi there,
I need to sort out the repeat customer, e.g. I have a list of customer's name, like Nike, Emerson, Alcan, etc... and if they sign another contract with my company again this year, I will name it like Nike 05, Emerson 05, etc...
So how can I get the result of how many customers have signed the 2nd contract with us. I have no clue now... :confused:
Anyone can give me some hint please! :)

Hi, all... welcome back to the new Access World Forums... glad we're still operational, even if some data was lost. It's the minds, anyway, not the data...
I have a query that pulls from 3 transaction tables.
tblTransactions - lists purchaser, amt tendered, other details
tblPurchased_Items - lists products and services paid for
tblTherapy_Treatments - lists treatments paid for
(Note: these are not separate lists of available items. They're two subforms' tables, one that deals with insurance and one that doesn't.)
I can pull this data fine, but in a case where someone had 1 treatment, but purchased 2 products, the query lists the treatment twice. I do have unique IDs for each table's items, but am not sure how to "list" each transaction once, but each thing paid for once, also.
For example:
Joe Blow comes in and has physical therapy and buys 2 books.
My query will show (bogus fields for illustration purposes):
TransactionID Name TherapyID TherapyCost ProductID ProductCost
33 Joe Blow 10 180.00 15 12.00
33 Joe Blow 10 180.00 17 19.00
So, if I total TherapyCost it really gives me twice the correct amount.
Can someone point me to a solution?
Pardon my rank ignorance, yet again.
I need to design a simple clinical database that will allow me to collect and display recurring data. Example. Every year a patient comes into clinic for follow-up. They complete a fixed data set questionnaire, their vital statistics are recorded and any new clinical results recorded. I have created all the tables/Forms but i don't know how to automatically add a new event that repeats the same data. So far i have 5 excessive years worth of follow-up data. Sadly, I have had to make massive tables by copying the identical data with either a 1,2,3,,, to signify a different year.

I am new to Microsoft access and I am currently exported an advanced revelation database in CSV format to access now because advanced revelation is a multivalue pick database I needed to create a the key for the multivalue fields which I have separated the data which is NI.
Now all the data is separated in order but the NI field only shows once then its blank going down till the next NI which is the next record this is due to to the multivalue fields data that has been separated.
How can I get access to copy the NI number down into the blanks slots till it reaches the next slot and then copy that one and so on in a loop once this is done I can use this as a key field and separate the data further..

I am currently updating an old Db which rosters staff. One of the enhancements will allow the user to automatically allocate staff details to a Roster after a given date. i.e. Roster date 20th Feb 15, repeat for 3 days. 21st 22nd 23rd Feb 15. I have created a form with a medium date field and then a Combo box with drop down values of 1 thru 7 days. I want to link the combo box value to the Date box.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIn my office we have used Access 2002 for many years. We enter data directly into a table. Many values are repeated row after row, with only slight changes in a few fields. I am looking for a way to automatically have the previous value in a field entered into the current row, and allow this value to be modified if it has changed, but then become the new "default" value for following rows. I have searched the web and found solutions when using forms, but nothing for entering data directly into a table. I have also seen the suggestion for Ctrl + ', this works but I would rather it be done automatically.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a continuous form that is populated from a query. The header has data entry text box for NCR#. I want to run a update query to have the header update each record found in the query.
I've tried a number of things and the closet thing I've got is the header entry updating every record. Something is wrong with my criteria but I'm not sure what.
I have to design a table i know its piece of cake.
Here i want user to continous form which wil be once in a month
needed is
EUR USD From To
User will enter the line with values and the period with valid dates.
Since its a continuous form i need user to fill all the details compulsory, as user cannot close the form without it.
I have a continuous form it has a field (DateStart) and a field (DateStartCarryOver). There is an event on (DateStart) for the (DateStart.Value) to be passed to a new record in (DateStartCarryOver).
My probem is that the new record dosent get saved (i.e. it dosent get an ID so a record isnt created. How can I create that record once the data has bee pased to it?
I have a main form with several continuous subforms. Each subform consists of several listbox controls. I would like to require the user to select an item from the listbox before being allowed to move to the next record in the subform, and upon reaching the last record in that continuous subform, to require an entry there in order to move to the first record in the next cont. subform.
As an added bonus, it would be nice, though not necessary, to automatically jump the focus from one record to the next after data is entered. But my basic goal is to avoid skipping records.
Caveat: I cannot use the "required" option in the field to which the control is bound because that field has a default value previously entered using an append query. (The default value basically means "not yet entered" and is not one of the options in the listbox. I am using this because this field is a foreign key in the table, thus it must have a value in order to have a record with which to populate the subform.)
My apologies if this has been asked and answered elsewhere, but I've searched and, while I found a few related threads, they don't quite answer my question. Here they are for reference:

Thanks for any help! Also, if you are going to recommend VB code, could you be specific about how and where I should use it? I'm not afraid of code, but I'm definitely new to it...
I'm trying to populate a listbox from a recordset. I will explain what I'm trying to achieve.
I have a (continuous) form with some data from a table. On the form header I have a listbox, showing all (distinct) customers from that form.
The user is able to do some filtering. That all works great. But I want to populate the listbox with ONLY the customers on the form AFTER filtering.
One way I thought might me the solution was using RecordClone. But I'm stuck there. It must be something simple for an expert. I'm not entirely a newbie, at least not to VBA. Is there an easy way to refer the listbox' recordset to the actual recordset on the form?
What I am trying to do is put a subform within a subform. The trouble is I want both forms to be continuous forms.
when I put the subform within a subform, access comes up with the following message:
************************************************** ********************
A form with a subform object cannot have its DefaultView set to Continuous forms.
You tried to add a subform to a form in design view.
MSAcess will reset the property to Single Form.
************************************************** *********************
which it does my higher level form becomes a form only showing single records at a time whilst the subform is a continuous form.
does anyone know of a way around this?
what about Access2003 does it allow this?
help much appreciated.

Okay, so I have a large dataset of almost 700,000 records. The field of interest is a continuous variable that ranges form about 3.3 to 5.6, a very high resolution (i.e. high decimal precision). What I would like to do is write a query that will create a column that will take the value in this column, determine which one of forty-six bins (with a bin width of .05) that it belongs in, and simply displays a bin number in the column. So, for each of the 70,000 records, in addition to the original continuous value, it will also have a value in the new field somewhere between one and forty-six describing what bin it falls in.
Due to the high number of records and bins I cannot thing of any manual way of doing this that would not take a very long time.
For the report in question all data is taken from one table named "Completions ". The fields I will be using are as follows:
Code:
[Surname]
[Firstname]
[Branch]
[Quarter1_A]
[Quarter1_T]
When the records are added, the Branch is added using a combo box. There can be several rows of data with the same Firstname and Surname but with different Branches.The report layout must look something like this.I have tried using DLookup to select the data based on the data in the Name text box, but this just gets the first result and duplicates it.
I have about 125 .mdb's I want to go through, and in each one, select a table and run a "find duplicates" query, creating a table of duplicate record info for research into why there are duplicates.. I am aware I can manually do this within each .mdb, but would be happy to be able to automate the process.
I wasn't sure what to search for, which is the reason for my posting. If anyone has an idea (and not questions on why I want to do this, or probs. I might encounter), I would be most appreciative.
Thanks!
I am implementing a quoting system at work. Many times, a customer wants the same job that he asked for last year or 2 years ago, so basically it's the same information. So when the customer calls, I look for his last quote, and then would add a button that would create a new quote (record) but with the same information. It would be a burden to enter all the same information each time the customer calls for the same job over and over again.
Thank you
Hello,
I have a DB table that only has 12 rows that is continuosly edited throught out the day. What I need to do is log all changes made to the 12 rows throught out the day. I have built two queries (a without match and an append query) which compair the source table with the log table where I store the differences. This works fine but I have to manually trigger the query. I would like to run the query about every 3-4 minutes. Is this possible or is there a better way?
Hi,
I would like to know what code I need to populate a field with the last record information - similar to the Ctrl apostophe.
I can upload the database in question if required.
Thank you
I'm using Access 2003 to input patient records. I did not set up the database and have limited knowlege of the workings of Access.
My problem:
Normally to repeat a field from the previous record I would use the c>' keys in a blank field and it would be filled with the info that I typed on the preivious record.
However all of a sudden it does not repeat the privious field but one from several years ago.
Can anyone tell me how to turn this setting on.

I have a continuous subform that displays lots of questions. This specific form has 10 questions on it. Each question has one answer and the users are required to select one answer for each question. I am trying to do some data validation before the data gets saved to my table to ensure that users have answered all the questions. I found some very useful code online and tweaked it to suit my needs. The validation works perfectly on subforms with only one question, as I have some other tabs that use it.
On the specific form that has the issue, the validation works as expected when no question has been answered, but when a user answers only one question and leaves the remaining nine questions blank, the validation does not work. I guess it is as a result of the continuous form repeating the different questions and ms access thinking that the data entered for one question alone is complete when it actually isn't.
Code:
Private Sub Ctl4_frm_Staff_Exit(Cancel As Integer)
Dim ctrl As Control, EmptyStr$
For Each ctrl In Form_subFrm_staffQuestion.Controls
If InStr(1, ctrl.Tag, "Required") > 0 Then
If IsNull(ctrl.Value) Or ctrl.Value = vbNullString Or Len(ctrl.Value) = 0 Then
[Code] ......
I have an Access Form called Database_Form, with a text box called Text22, and a button called Command42.
I also have a table, and query, as following:
Table 1, as in the below example:
Row_Number as Column header, and values 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, as rows.
Column1 as Column header, and values 0026007101, 0026007102, 0026007103, 0026007104, 0026007105, as rows.
Query 2, which has the criteria [Forms]![Database_Form]![Text22] for Row_Number Field.
Basically, i want that each time when i press the button Command42 and having the text box filled with value 1 (for row number 1), to repeat this step, but taking the next row_number and so on, until it finishes the last row.
The Query 2, should sequentially select the row number given in the text box, based on a VBA Code or something.
Is there any VBA code in order to achieve this ?
I want to use buttons on a form to change the sort order on a continuous form. In the buttons click event I am using a public function (named Sort_1) to change the sort order. The first element of the event call is the name of a generic query (named Sort_1_Query1) and the query field to sort (LAST_NAME OR FRIST_NAME, depending on the button.)This is the Click Statement.
=Sort_1("Sort_1_Query1","LAST_NAME")
This is the Public Function
Public Function Sort_1(SortName As String, FieldName1 As String)
DoCmd.ApplyFilter SortName, FieldName1 & "between 'A' and 'Z'"
End Function
I think the problem is in the use of quotation marks or trying to pass the query field name to the Do Command or the use of an ampersand.
I have a continuous form in which I put a command button for each record called "detail". I would like to click on the "detail" button and make it open another form containing all (and only) the info on this record.
At first I refused to use an "id" to link both forms, but finally I added the "id" in the table... however still does not work.
continuous form: "04 - GASTOS_BUSQUEDA"
id field on continuous form: "Gastid"
pop-up (details) form: "GASTOS_EDITAR"
id on pop-up (details) form: "editar_id"
This is what I have tried on the "click" properties of the "details" button field (called "btn_editgs"):
1)
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", acNormal, , "[editar_id] = " & Me.Gastid
2)
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , "[editar_id]=" & Me.Gastid
3)
stLinkCriteria = "[editar_id]=" & Me![Gastid]
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , stLinkCriteria
4)
Private Sub btn_editgs_Click()
On Error GoTo btn_editgs_Click_Err
Dim strWhere As String
strWhere = "[editar_id] = " & Me.Gastid
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , strWhere
btn_editgs_Click_Exit:
Exit Sub
btn_editgs_Click_Err:
MsgBox Error$
Resume btn_editgs_Click_Exit
End Sub
