Hello all,
I have a table in access and one of the fields (date) has a default value of =now().
I have an excel spreadsheet that has all the fields in the access table inlcuding the date column (but the column is not populated).
When I import the spreadsheet into access, I get some errors...violations...when I open up the table, it does not have the date field populated, do you know why?
Thanks for your help.
I have a form where the control source of several text box fields includes a function that looks up values in a table that is not the form's record source. The default value in the property for these fields is set to 0. Unfortunately, when I migrate to a new record, these fields display the dreaded #Error. It should be noted that these fields are for display only and are not even in the form's underlying table.Here is an example of the control source for one of the fields:
Code:
=GetFYSummary("Budget",[ProjectID],0,0,"PPE","frm_ProjectFinancials")
Here is the start of the code for the function:
Code:
Public Function GetFYSummary(strField As String, lngProjectID As Long, lngFYYear As Long, intPeriod As Integer, _
strWBSType As String, strSource As String) As Long
[code]...
I'm trying to cover my bases to ensure that the displayed value of the field shows 0 rather than #Error.I even tried including a breakpoint at the first line of code in the function and it is never even triggered when I move to a new record.As soon as I type the first letter/number in a field that is tied to the form's record source, all of these display values do change to 0 appropriately.
I think my issue is that when the user opens my form a record gets created. Thus default value will not work. what happens is; the user fills out form 1 goes to form 2 and on form 2 i want a check box default value to be true...but its always false.
the checkbox in question is adequite staff. the user gets the question, "was there adequate staff" if there was the "adequate staff box" would be true. what i have tried is i created a "dummy" checkbox (checkbox299) entitle no. and labled adequite staff checkbox as yes. on the form2 open insert the following
Code:
If Me.ADEQUATE_STAFF = False And Me.Check299 = False Then
Me.ADEQUATE_STAFF = True
Else
End If
Hi Everyone,
I hope someone can help.
I have a form with a combo boxes and a table with relevant list and additional field, fldDefaultDrive (Yes/No Field).
Currently in order to set the default value, I have used the following code for each default;
Private Sub Form_Load()
Forms!frmMediaLabeller!CboDriveName.DefaultValue = """D"""
End Sub
However, I want users to be able to go into the table and change the default value if thier CD player default Drive is anything but D: Drive. I have tried to replace the D above with an SQL statement but with no success.
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim Drivename As String
Drivename = SELECT tblMediaDrive.fldDrivename FROM tblMediaDrive WHERE (((tblMediaDrive.fldDefaultDrive)=-1));
Forms!frmMediaLabeller!CboDriveName.DefaultValue = """Drivename"""
End Sub
This is definetly not working, can anybody help, I have a feeling it is syntax but not sure where? :confused:

I have a program that runs under access 2007 that I use at my work. We will soon be updating to MS office 2010 and the program will not work now because a calender file .ocx was removed from access 2010. Is there a way to get the 2007 .ocx file to work in access 2010?The program I am using is a relatively simple stand-alone and unsupported app that we use to request patient arrival and departure from various radiology tests inside a hospital. No reports are made from the app other than the number of patient transports for the day.
The app is placed on a common drive accessed from any pc in the hospital. No special permissions are required. But our app does use the calendar, time and date functions in access 2007. When I tried the app on a pc with access 2010, it basically says it (access) cannot open the app because a .ocx file is not present.Is there a way to make the access 2010 calendar file work in access 2007?
I have an Access 2010 database with two tables and two forms. The tables are Organizations and People. Similarly, the forms are Organizations Entry Form and PeopleEntryForm. The People are linked to the Organizations table. Several people can be linked to the same organization.On my Organizations EntryForm, I created a command button to duplicate a record using the wizard. It works fine.
I did exactly the same thing on the PeopleEntryForm, but instead of copying the record, it creates a new blank record. I don't get any error messages. Is my problem due to the fact that the People table is linked to the Organizations table?
Dear Sir...:)

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a billing date on my form.
Each billing date should be on the 15th of any month (1/15 or 2/15 or 3/15, etc…)
Is there a way to default a day to the 15th and then make the user enter month and year?
Or if there is no way to default the date to the 15th, may be there is somehow I can check to see if day that user entered = 15th?
Thanks.
How can I Default a Text Box value by the input of another two Text Boxes. This Expression on the Text Box Default Value does not work.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHi all,
Is it possible to make the default values of a table with symbols in it?
I have a database that returns results with pictures and links included. What Im trying to do is make it as quick as possible to enter information, i've got the ASP page returning everything correctly but I still have to copy n paste certain things onto every form entry in the database.
<img src="
<a target="_blank" href="
"
<a href="notify.asp?choice=
These are all the things I couldn't get into the ASP code on the page. When i enter data I just have to flick back a page, copy, flick forward and paste for every section that has symbols (theres about 7 of em)...... gets a bit annoying after only 5 pages.
I hope thats enough info and not too confusing. Thanks to anyone that can help.
Hello Everyone,
I wanted to know how I can set a default value into the combo box. The value I type in the Default value box doesn't seem to work.
Here's what i want to accomplish.
My default value should be my computer user id
=Environ("UserName")
How can I do this?
Thanks,
Is there any way I can have a default value in a table set to the value in a field in another table?
I have a table that has event information including the number of the event, e.g., this year is the 51st one. This event information table only has one line because after the event I'm going to save the record to an archive table and then update the information for the next year.
I have another table with participants in the event and records for it come from a form. I'd like to have it so that it automatically inserts the event number for each record. In this way when I archive that information, we'll know which event the participant was involved in. The participant could be involved for a number of years.
I'd rather not have the input person have to type in the event number every time. Doing a combo box also involves an extra step for them. It seems like I ought to be able to automate this info. I don't know anything about VBA.
Would one of you help me? By the way, I've learned an awful lot reading on this forum. I can't tell you how many problems you've solved for me. Thank you.
