Since you can add Calindar in access using activex so that I can select any date and pass that on to a field in a form, is there any way you can add a clock using activex so that I can select any time that I want to put in to a field? any suggestion? Thanks.
View RepliesHas anyone ever made a time clock application in Access? If so, can you post a sample application? I'm really at a loss with this one..

Hi all, I havent' been around in a while (toddler, work, getting my BS degree and new baby coming in a week and a half) so I am hopefully not asking a previously posted question.
I'm suspecting my new work isn't accurately paying for the hours worked. I made a quick simple DB where I input my punch times in short time format. There's the typical In, Out for Lunch, In from Lunch, and Out. I've got it correctly adding the times so that it reports the total hours worked per day, though, in order for it to display correctly, that total is in short time as well.
The problem is, when I group a week together, as soon as the sum of the totals reaches 24 or more, it goes back to 0, as it's on the idea that there's only 24 hours in a day.
Hopefully, it's just a formatting issue or is there a function to convert the times (or just the sum) to number of hours?
Thanks and Happy New Year to all.

I want to create a toggle button (On/Off), that can show time clock on button. Click to start time, click again to stop time.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a complete working timeclock and trying to add the forms within the navigation form. I know I have to go back and re-reference everything and have already done so with the queries. But I cannot get the setfocus to work.
Here is the setup.
NavigationForm (navigation form)
frmClockIn (top form)
frmClockIn_SUB (bottom form)
Open Navigation > Time Clock.
Select an EmployeeID from the dropdown
Click on clock in. (successful)
cboEmployeID goes blank and try selecting the same employeeID to clock out and I get a debug at
Me.frmClockIn_SUB.SetFocus
I think there is a problem with my cboEmployeeID_AfterUpdate() as well.(related?) which used to be
Private Sub cboEmployeeID_AfterUpdate()
me.refresh
End Sub
I have replaced "me.refresh" with "Me.frmClockIn_SUB.Form.Refresh"
(It used to break here, but not after I changed it.)
Not too sure where to set these forms to in the code
I have attached a blank copy ....
Hello,
Right guys, new to access but have experience with MySQL.
Basically, i have one table with a few fields, ID, Customername, Rating, Customer_email, Comments, Removalcompany.
I created a query to get all of the ratings from that table, and average them.
What i want to do now is put that average into a table and to have it only showing in one record. I have achieved this, but i would like to have it so that the number for the average rating is live.
This is to be used as a backend for a website.
Any suggestions?
I've set up a product database in Access for my small business. One of its functions is to track the prices of competing products online.I'm trying to get Access to automatically update these prices en-mass, yanking the data off the websites in question without me having to manually enter hundreds of prices each week.
I have a unique record for each product instance as it appears online. For example, there are three unique records for a 4oz hand sanitizer I sell (one for each of my competitors that sells it). Each record has the price, quantity, and unique URL on which the product appears.I'm not great with HTML and don't really have any programming expertise aside from some pretty simple VBASIC.
Component that is capable of putting a timeline on an Access form and displaying records with a date-time field.
What I want, is for example:
tabevents contains two basic fields:
eventtime (datetime)
eventname (string)
eventcomplete (bool)
What I want to place on the form is a visual timeline which calculates the time between the first and last event and places all events accordingly along the line, spaced out, ideally with an arrow/marker that moves along the line as time progresses, highlighting any events that haven't been marked as complete. Double clicking on the event would allow us to mark it as complete.
I know this is a long shot, but thought it worth seeing if such a thing exists.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI wrote a custom ActiveX Control in C#.NET using a guide (Google ".net activex control step by step", first link on CodeProject). The control is compiled as a .dll and registered in Access 2007.
When I place the ActiveX control on a Form or Report, I can call its methods from VBA and see its output just fine.
When I open a Print Preview, only the top left corner of the control is shown, the rest is a blank white box. This does not happen with built-in ActiveX Controls (e.g. Calendar control), which print as they should.
I also tried a basic ActiveX Control build using VC++ (the sample control created by the MFC wizard), and that displays and prints correctly.
I have a form and report created in Access 2010 that contain an ActiveX Control.
When the form or report is printed the ActiveX Control appears but is cropped up to the top left corner.

I have created a database that I am happy with, and I am about to receive information to populate it with. I know I am about to be asked to about security and logging of changes made to the data, which I know nothing about!!
As a result before I get into this part of my project I would like to know myself what is and what is not possible!!
Currently I have 2 tables and 3 forms, one of which is a sub form........ All changes will be done via the forms, adding new records, editing existing records or even deleting obsolete records.
•Is it possible to record any changes made to the live data?
oFor this to happen I presume that I need to setup users and access rights?
•What type of information can be saved if any?
oWhat form would this be saved in and where (a temp table?)?
While typing this a change of plan – if it is possible I am going to start building it regardless, as it will enhance my database.
Thanks
I've gotten to a point with my database where I have split it into front and back ends, and then made a copy so that I have a test version and a live version. I have users in live who've started keying data, and I'm working on forms and tables in test that I then copy to live as they are completed. Up to now, I've been just copying the individual item in test, and then pasting it over the version that exists in live (example: I made some changes to a form in test, copied that form, and then pasted over the version of the form that was in live).
Where it gets tricky is that I am also in the process of designing and insurance underwriting feature that's going to be a part of this application. I've set up all the tables in test, and now that I'm working on setting up the relationships, I'm wondering how I'm supposed to copy the relationship setup into live. Am I supposed to be copying the entire front-end from test when I have changes, and replacing the existing "live" front end with it? And if I do that, will I have to edit it every time to keep the new live front end from sending data keyed into it to my test version (had that happen when I initially split it)?
I am writing reports and queries for an Access database used by a small business. I have a copy of their data and am making the report and query additions to that. Now how do I get my additions to the 'live' system?

Hi guys,I'm new to Access except using it years back but much has changed from the 2000 version to the 2007 version - it's slowly coming back to me though, as it's mostly just an interface change. Although I'm highly experienced in SQL (mySQL) and database design / structure from being a Web Programmer.I'm wanting to store a stock amount for products. Using 3 tables, for products, orders and sales. Here's a real basic layout:productsprodID | productName | productStockordersorderID | supplier | prodID | quantityBoughtsalessaleID | customer | prodID | quantitySoldThe products table is just a list of the products. Sales is where I log what I sell to customers and the orders are what I buy from my suppliers.What I'm wishing to do is use the products table to store the stock of that item so as soon as I make a sale, that quantity for that prodID is subtracted instantly from the productStock and when I make an order it's instantly added.Is this possible, or is there a good way to do this?All help appreciated! :)Thanks,Nick.

I basically want to have a live preview window of the "File Link" attachment in that current record. I have heard it's best to use a Web Browser Control when doing this, but I cannot get it to display the currently attached pdf file in that field of that record.
Is there a way to edit the link properties of the Web Browser Control so that it dynamically detects. The file location of the attached file in that field? There will only ever be one attachment in that field, as this will be a live pdf view of the drawing to which that drawing number was assigned
I have a split accdb in Access 2010 with tables/data in the back end file (stored on a network drive) and the forms, queries and code in a front end file stored on each desktop. Note the front end file is common to two back end files. Both back ends will be mirrored but I need to use one for live data and the other for development and testing.
I want to be able to include vba code when the front end is launched that prompts the user to choose between one of two back end files, one 'test' and the other 'live'. But I've spent all afternoon scouring the net with no success on something simple but effective.
As I see it I just need an option on a form and depending on which is selected the following happens:
- links to current/existing tables are deleted
- chosen back end file (test or live) is selected (this has a password)
- links to the tables of the chosen file are created in the front end
- the appropriate back end source is now working with my front end
I've got 5 time zones showing on the main screen of my db, just by doing date() and subtracting number of hours for each time zone. Only problem is need a refresh button on it for people to click. Can you get a realtime clock ticking away on an access form?

Hi,
My question is...is there any way to get Access to work out the actual day of the week from a date entered into the computer? The reason for this is...I am designing and implimenting a bookings data base for a village hall, and I wish access to automatically store what day of the week it will be on the specified date, in a field called 'Day'. I need this field to produce a report for the week ahead, showing exactly what is in on which day of the week. Is there any way this can be done? Or do the days just have to be typed in manually, i.e. check a calendar and type them in? I would appreciate it if anyone could give me info...on ANY way this can be implimented...be it store the dates in a table or use a giant Iif statement or whatever! And the tags necessary would be helpful,
Thank-you for your help in advance, and i apologise for such a lengthy post!
Please get in touch directly through c.majury@ntlworld.com or alternatively post the answer here.

Do you happen to know if I can get my hands on an anolog style clock to put on my form in Access?

The company I work for has a central office and out employees work at different locations around the city. I have setup a database so that reports and requests made by employees are put into the database and sent to our office and clients office, instead of the tri copy forms we have been using. One thing that we were interested in doing was setting up a punch clock in the database so when employees come and go they punch in and out and there is a report that can be printed weekly or biweekly. Unfortunately I have no idea how to start making that feature, I would appreciate any help or advice on what direction to go...
