Hi
i have 2 querrys with the same fields but different criteria (one is to search a person throw their id and the other one to search a person by their surname and dob). i can't work out how to display the results of the querries to an existing form i have. Can anyone help me please?
My db has multiple linked tables. As time passes and work on a project continues data needs to be added to a separate table that is linked to the first table to be populated.
i.e., Initial design data is entered first, when drilling is complete more data is added to a linked table, when drilling is surveyed yet more data is added to the second table.
What I want to be able to do is to query for a particular set of existing design data, display this on a form and on the same line enable data entry to other fields from other tables which are linked to the existing design data.
Hi
I cant get my head around this one,
I have a Form that enters all details for an Order.
On that form is a Tick Box that says Repeatable.
If that box is ticked in the future I am able to repeat on that stock item.
I have created a form with a List boxea that Lists all Suppliers Stock that is Repeatable
I want to be able to double click a Stock Item from that list, then let it populate another Order ( Unique Key ), fill in all the field from the previous order, so all I have to do is enter the Quantity I want to re-order.
How do I do this?
please help

I have a database where I need to append part of a new record to another table. But when I open the query with the link to the form that is open I cannot see the added record until it's saved to the open form. I tried to re-query the key ID field but that does not work. How do I do a re-query without the form requiring everything and then I am on the incorrect record?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently have made some changes to a bound form that someone else created. Since I made the changes, simply adding a couple more linked textboxes, the form will not populate any of the fields until I lose focus from this main form to another form and come back. I have tried adding me.requery, me.refresh to the onActive event, but it does not work.
Also this only occurs on 2 machines. If I try it on mine or a couple of other computers in the company the program works fine.
I am at a complete loss as to what to do and could really use some help on this one.
I am trying to add a query in an existing form. When I click on adding a field, I get an option to show "all tables" for not queries.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am brand new to MS Access 2013 & VBA.There is a form that collects the data and writes it to a SQL database. The form is a certificate order form for a school. There are two tables that data is written to. dbo.CertificateMaster & dbo.CertificationModules. There is a relationship between the two tables. A person will request the certificate and included in the request are the subject(modules) that the person has studied.As part of the request the college/school needs a printed copy of the request.As the report opens I need it populate certain fields with their full names. To do this I use the following script
Private Sub Report_Load()
Dim strSQL1 As String, db As DAO.Database, rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSQL2 As String, db2 As DAO.Database, rs2 As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSQL3 As String, db3 As DAO.Database, rs3 As DAO.Recordset

Problem 1:
When drawing the data from dbo_tblCourse_Department I need to populate 4 textboxes on the report. I am able to populate PgmTitle &NQFLevel, but I keep getting "Item not found in this collection error for Credits & SAQAID.
Problem 2:
I need to populate the various courses with their name which is extracted from dbo_tblCourses. However only the first course name is visible in the report. I have tried all sorts of different iterations with IF Then or Do While to get the names in the correct line of the report.
I have a form with subform (datasheet) .
On my subform i have one field which shows the
productId ( which is filtered from combo boxes on main form) .
productId contains two columns
1 bound column(id) ( hidden with width 0 )
2 column (desription) ( shown with width 2 )
Now after entering the data when i come back to the form again . It hides the data from the productId field on subform , because data in combo box (on main form) doesn't match. Although the row is showing up , only the text in field (productId) is hidden.
Now when i change data in combo box on main form to match the ProductId , then the productId field text shows again. after changing combo box it hides . What i need is the existing data should not hide when i change the combo box selection.
see pic 1 where product matches and pic 2 where not. please note i am using master child relationship on the form/subform.
I'm simply trying to display the data from an open form named frmEventInput fields: [EventName] and [Description] on a new form that includes 2 text boxes with the control sources and names: [txtEventName] and [txtDescription]

I have a field in a table with the input mask LLL0000;0;_
when I use an append querry to put data in the table it still puts in data which does not follow the input mask. Is there some tick box I have not checked or somthing because this is getting really annoying.
All help really appreciated.
-Microsoft Access 2010
-Existing Access Database contains tables with 1-2 million records
I would like to add a field[dol] to an existing table[rei]. I need this new field[rei].[dol] to be populated with existing data from another table[main] based on the associated field[main].[account1] or [main].[account2] or [main].[account3].
Table1[main]
...account1
...account2
...account3
...dol
[code]...
In the [main] table. There is always data in [dol]. But there is NOT always data in the [account] fields. Sometimes there is multiple account numbers per [dol] but not always.
Customers will ALWAYS have at least 1 [account] number and [dol]. Some will have multiple [account] numbers and [dol]. Sometimes these [account] numbers are the same in multiple fields[account1] [account2] [account3].I just need to do a lookup or something to find the [account#] and pull in its [dol] from the [main] table and populate it in [rei].[dol].
I have a database that I import data from an excel spreadsheet into multiple times daily. The table that this data is imported into has several key fields that if the data already exisits in the table, and I attempt to import data that is the same except for one or more of the key fields is different. At this time the database it creates a different record. I am trying to get the database to overwrite the data in the database.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello Tech gurus,
I have a database with existing data, that is not normalized, :eek: and all the data is in one field... This what I am dealing with:
As you notice the first row of data in field1 C10A CHOLEST&TRIGLY has 3 spaces to the right the next row ALTORVASTIN has five spaces to the right, the next line LIPITOR has 7 spaces to the right, and so forth, hopefully you get at what I am trying to do, I just looked at the data and it is not showing up in view of the leading spaces, but I am trying to move the data based ONLY on the position of leading spaces, example all data that has 3 leading spaces would go into its own separate column, and all data that has 7 leading spaces would go into a separate column, I have tried to use the left, mid, len functions but I cannot figure out how to move the text and keep it whole only by data position of spaces.
Field1:
C10A CHOLEST&TRIGLY
ATORVASTATIN
LIPITOR
PFIZER
SIMVASTATIN
SIMVASTATIN TEVA
TEVA
M1A ANTIRHEUMATIC N-STEROID

I need to categorize 35,000 cells of data in a column into 3 different groups (A,B, and C). Each cell will have something like "G00001" or "G00525" in it, but depending on when it was added, I want to change it to "G00001A" or "G00525C". I created a select query to show only the G0000's column and the column that indicates AB or C, but i don't know how to add the letters at the end of my G0000's. Do I need to use an update query or can I do something more simple? Also, if I need to use an update query, how would I build it to do what I need to get done?

I am attempting to build a db for a friend who has all his data in one table. During normalisation I have seperated the various threads of data into various tables of usable information. My problem is that I need to seperate his clients fullname into First & Surname i.e. Fullname: Mick Burke to FirstName: Mick and Surname: Burke - in other words make two fields from one.
Any help in doing this would be well appreciated.
I have an old table that has many, many records. One of the columns lists the Date of Birth. Here's my problem:
Users have entered data into this column as "71462" This representing July 14, 1962. Is there a way to automatically format all data in this column so that it is more palatable - e.g. 07/14/1962?
Changing the column Data Type to "Short Date" in Design View would delete all existing data in that column, so this is not an option.
Thanks for your help.
Hi.
I have a table with a NAME field and a GENDER field.
How would I code a query so that if the gender is MALE than MR. would be added to the front of the existing data in the NAME field? MRS. if gender is FEMALE?
i.e., the result would be MR. SMITH, MR. JONES, MRS. CARSON...

Please bear with me, first post, trying to get to grips with Access for work!
We (a primary school) had a "bespoke" database set up using MS Access by someone who has long left the area and now we need to make changes and I, as the most computer literate person on site, have been volunteered to make these changes.
My level is beginner (for now) and my first job is to add some new options to a "Titles" table, four columns, six records. Column1 = ID#, Column2 = Male Titles, Column3 = Female Titles, whilst Column4 seems to hold items from Columns 2 & 3.
If I add a futher option, I get the error "Can't perform cascading operation: Entry must be one of the Titles as featured in the drop-down box or in the Titles table.
Now, as far as I can tell, I HAVE added the new option to the Titles table, and they DO show in the drop down box in the main spreadsheet display, BUT the error comes back as soon as I try to confirm the new title.
Any ideas please?
When i try to import data from an excel file to an existing table in MS Access database i get a pop up saying "Access was unable to import data". When i click OK it says "finished importing data" .But when i go to the table there are no new records added. Can anyone please help me with this ? All the fields in the excel file are as they are in the table.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have the following statement which exports data based on a query to a .xls:
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "qryreportsbydate", "C:Documents and SettingspdaintyDesktopRawQualityData_Weekly.xls"
This works fine it exports the data and names the sheet rawqualitydata.
The problem i'm having is when i come to run the export again Excel tells me the file already exists. What I want it to do is overwrite the data in the rawqualitydata sheet in the same file.
Is this possible?
Hi,
I have a table that contains a notes field. What i would like to do is to append to this field in table with some more data (notes), however i dont want to over write the existing data. I would just like to add to it.
the current notes are added through the access front end, but in this instance i have a particular note that needs to be added to various enteries without overwriting existing data. I know this is to be done via an append query, any help would be great
Thanks
Hi Everyone
I have done a blunder on my database:
When I built it I gave the MaterialsInventory# a field size of 3 characters, which I soon got to learn (stupid me for not thinking it through) has to be a lot bigger. I have now extended it to 5 characters which should be more than enough. Now, when my list comes up its not organized properly, 123 would com after 12299 for instance and so on.
my question is; how can I make a function/code/something-smart to extend the 123 type values to 00123? This table is linked as well so I guess I'd have to delete the links and do the same for every linked table? I got about 5000+ entries so don't feel like doing this manually:P
Any help would be highly appreciated!
Cheers
