Add Timer In Access Form And Store Data In A Table
Dec 2, 2012
How to insert a timer in the PropertyFrm Form in the Access Database attached to this message. When a user opens the PropertyFrm form I want the timer to record the number of hours, minutes, and seconds each user spend time on a record including the current dateand have the data stored in the Timer table.
When a user goes to another record, I want the timer to reset and store the hours, minutes, seconds, and current date on another record in the Timer Table and so on. If the fields and data types in the Timer table is not created properly.
I do not want the time and current date to be displayed on the PropertyFrm Form. I want the information to be stored in the Timer table.I do not want the user to see the hours, minutes, seconds and current date information on thePropertyFrm Form.
I am writing the following code that will first of all display column headers dynamically using "Headers" field data from Access table and then find out the sum(volume) using column header and first column values. The following code works fine to display headers dynamically in Excelsheet from Access table but doesn't display sum(volume) in all the corresponding cells. As I can't attach the Access table so I have stored data from Access table to sheet named "Access Data" as attached. The sheet2 named "Report" should populate total volume .
Code: Public Function Inputdata() Dim cn As ADODB.Connection Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset Dim r As Long Dim i As Integer
I am trying to add an attendance records to my database but cannot figure out how best to do it..I already have a 'children' table were all the kids info is stored and have created a 'roll' table.
i want to be able to open a form and search first and/or last name from the 'Children' table, then be able to save both first and last names and the date into the 'Roll' table. (then open reports etc later based on dates)how to pull data from one table and store it in another.
I am a beginner working with access (2013). I am looking for a way to retrieve data from one table and store these values in a other table. The tables are in the same database.
For example: Table 1 Input [OrderNr] Input [Nr] (linked to Table 2 [ID] Input [Amount] From Table 2 Get [Product]
Get [Unit] Get [Price] [TotalPrice] =[Amount] * [Price]
The result should be wiewed as a datasheet.
Problem 1 I have made the form and the links between the tables and it works alright on screen. Except the sum-function It does not work. I can only get the amount of items in the summery field for column TotalPrice. Is it because it is a column for calculated values? Other columns including not calculated numeric values works alright with the sum-function.
Problem 2 The data from table2 will not be stored in table 1
This is either a no brainer or falls into the calculated field syndrome.
My HR database stores Employee job history records. I display the current job (condition Null EndDate) in a subform. I would like to store the Division ID of this Job in the Employees Record, to make it easier to create Divisional reports. I am able to display the value by setting the Data Source to the subform field name value, but it won't write the value to the table. I have to manually type it in. There's definately some learnin' here!
I am trying to see if it is possible to store colors in a form or table and then reference them while in VBA. What I am hoping to do is when I write all my code for command buttons to change On Got Focus, instead of writing xxx.backcolor = RGB (255,255,255) i could do something like xxx.backcolor = Forms!HiddenColors!Command That way if i want to ever change the color scheme of the db, I can change it in one place rather than hunt lines of code.

I'm having some trouble getting my information that I input on my form to store in my correct table. I will attach my DB so you can take a look at what I have thus far.
Here is what I am wanting to do:
I have TblEmployee, TblEquipment and TblJunction and FrmTracking and FrmUpdate
I input the bulk of my information thru FrmTracking, my trouble is I can not seem to get the information that I input in my FrmTracking to store in the correct table. I can get the information to store in TblEmployee, however the information that I want to be stored in TblEquipment will not store in there.
How to update data from one table to another table using form.
I have data coming from design team in Database 1 and using form i want search data and assign the job to a person and store it in the database with his name. I have to do this because database from design team is read only.
Hi I' am trying to make a form which executes a macro in every minute. I have put the Timer Interval to 60000ms. But now the form executes the macro only once and I want that macro will be executed always after one minute. So how I can make this work? Do I have to make somekind of loop in code or what?
I've taken a break from Access for a while, but I'm back at it again and having some difficulty. I am trying to open a form with a timer to state that the database is going to shut down in five minutes if they don't respond. I'm obviously using the wrong code. I've been trying to use the following:
Private Sub Form_Timer() DoCmd.OpenForm "frmWarning" If Forms!frmHidden!chkActive Then Forms!frmHidden!chkActive = False Me.TimerInterval = 300000 Else DoCmd.Quit End If End Sub
I have created a countdown counter on a form using different Datediff's so to split the renaining time into days, hours, minutes and seconds.
The Datediff compares Now() to a text box called txt.Leaving which has a date/time unputted via a table (Format: General Date)
However the seconds and minutes work ok but the hours and days dont count down inline with the minutes and seconds reducing. The hours do alter when the minutes are 13 mins into the new hour. This would seem to point possibly to rounding off but I would expect that further into the hour.
Below is the Datediff that is set as the control source in a text box and the form it sits on has its timer set to 1000 and the event requeries the text box.
=DateDiff("d",Now(),[txt.Leaving]) & "d, " & DateDiff("h",Now(),[txt.Leaving]) Mod 24 & "h, " & DateDiff("n",Now(),[txt.Leaving]) Mod 60 & "m, " & DateDiff("s",Now(),[txt.Leaving]) Mod 60 & "s"
Hi Guys, I have an Access database which has many tables. I have also created a Infopath form template and published it to Sharepoint server. Now, My question is: How to get the existing data from an MS Access Table to a Infopath form? I need to create a Infopath form for each row in the Access table(assuming the field names are same in both Access and Infopath) Do i need to build a Infopath form on that Access DB or Is this something that i have to work on Access?
I'm relatively new to Access and have just created a database and am wanting the database to calculate the total of two fields and store this information in the underlying table.
Example:-
Field 1 - £10 Field 2 - £15 Field 3 - TOTAL of above - I have used the calculation =([Field 1]+[Field 2])
This works fine in my form but the total value doesn't fall through to the table. It is just blank.
I am using Access 97 and wonder if this is somehow possible. I have attached a screen shot of the properties for this field (which is called 'Total' in the underlying table).
Hopefully someone can help me this (and hopefully the solution isn't staring me in the face)
I am trying to export data from a cell in a worksheet to a field in an Access database that I am building. The database has two tables, tblCompanies and tblQuotes. It works through a macro accessed by a command button, which should export the total of a quote into the field Quote_Price in the tblQuotes table, which the users will access through a form. The problem is that if I export the data from Excel, I get an error message saying, "You cannot add or change a record because a related record is required in table 'tblCompanies'. The code looks like this:
Sub NewQuote()
Dim cn As ADODB.Connection, rs As ADODB.Recordset, r As Long ' connect to the Access database Set cn = New ADODB.Connection cn.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; " & _ "Data Source=C:Documents and SettingsDJEdwardsMy DocumentsTest Foldermarketing.mdb;" ' open a recordset Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset rs.Open "tblQuotes", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic, adCmdTable r = 55 ' the start row in the worksheet Do While Len(Range("I" & r).Formula) > 0 With rs .AddNew .Fields("Quote_Price") = Range("I" & r).Value .Update ' stores the new record End With rs.Close Set rs = Nothing cn.Close Set cn = Nothing End Sub
I can import the cell contents from Access with no problems, but I would like the user to be able to do it from Excel to simplify things.
I am relatively new to Access 2007, I am having an issue with a sub form not showing all the data from a table.
Basically I have 2 tables: Headers and Line Details, they are linked via an order number. The headers will only ever have 1 record per order number but there can be multiple records on the line details table.
I have imported the data into both tables. When I open my main form, all the data from the header file is all visable and all correct for all records. However when I look at the data in the sub form, it is only showing data for some of the records.
I have checked and the data is correctly linked, and if I change the "source object" to point directly at the table in the sub form it shows the record is there. When I point it back to my sub form it is blank.
I wanted to import data in a access table using a form in access. The form should contain a browse button to browse the file and then a command button to start importing.
I have set it up and now need to create an invoice section. An invoice needs to be issued every month and is worked out on a percentage of works complete. For example in one job there may be 10 items of work and for 8 of these iems 25% of the work is complete and the other 2 no work has started. Therefore my invoice needs to be able to calculate 25% of the value of the 8 items and work out a total price to be invoiced. Each time an invoice is created I need to be able to store the invoice value and the percent value of each item complete. Does any one have any ideas as to a good way of doing this. That is if you can undersatnd what I am asking for. Thanks for any help.
I have a handful of misc. data that is unique an really doesn't fit anywhere... I need it to be easily updateable, as it will and needs to change from time to time, What should I do with it?
Some of the data is a "Common Footer" that prints on ALL reports and DOES change periodically. I decided to create a common footer table with a single value and can access it from all of my reports... it works great!
However, I now have a bunch of other misc. data that I need to store, like the "Working Year" (I am going to use the field to dictate which year of info to pull the data from) "Common Header", etc. Additionally, I am considering storing formatting data such as font size (still considering this).
So with all this explained, to sum it all up, what is the best method for handling all of this misc. data? I didn't think creating a separate table for each piece was the best idea.
I created a report database that rely's on both default data and user entered data. Unfortunately the default data is going to be different for each office and needs to be easily updated as needed. So I created a "default data table" and named it DefaultData_tbl; and has these field names in it:
Office Phone Address Fax
The personnel Main form is run from the Main_tbl with the exception of the items above (which reside on the DefaultData_tbl). This default data then needs to be automatically applied into the Main_tbl, via the Main form, which has Main_tbl as it's data source. Then the user does not have to keep filling in these textboxes for each personnel entry (unless it is different for a particular reason; which they should be able to change as needed and then automatically revert back to the DefaultData_tbl for any future personnel inputs). A personnel report (to file in their personnel records) is printed and will also need to pull from this table the items listed above (unless it is changed by the user for that one person they were entering in). The report name is NIPRNet_rpt.
For instance: Say the Office is "Marketing"... Everywhere on the reports, tables and forms that asks for the office should automatically put "Marketing" in the spot. Now, if I get someone who is working in Recieving today, I should be able to update those office boxes with "Receiving" (just this one time) which will also have to be updated on the Main_tbl and NIPRNet_rpt (but should NOT update the DefaultData_tbl). Then it should automatically revert back to "Marketing" when I pull up a new user
Putting this information in the default data under properties works fine, but I am sending this out to all the offices and want them to be able to easily enter in their particular default data. I don't want to have to create 30 databases all with default data set in them already. Plus, if something changes, like their phone number, I want them to be able to update this in their default data form and it be updated for future use.
I tried putting this in the Office textbox on the Entry Form: =[Tables]![DefaultData_tbl]![Office] All I get in the textbox is "Name?"
I would make it a Label instead of a Textbox to associate it, but the user has to have the ability to easily change this default data inside the form as they are filling it out. This updated data is also needed to update the Main_tbl and the NIPRNet_rpt.
I am racking my brain trying to figure out what I am missing here. The DefaultData_tbl will not have more than one record in it; as all it is doing is storing the "initial setup" default data to be used in reports and forms. Anybody know what else I can try to get this to work?
I have a database (split into front and backend). Users populate the table using a form on the front end. Recently, it has been pointed out that some of the data entered into one specific textbox is being changed on the table. The data entered is always has a minimum of a letter and number value i.e. "A1", "A2" etc. Upon examining the table, this has changed into numeric values i.e. "1291", "1061", "852"... etc. Looks like it is translating them into both 3 and 4 digit numerical values by the looks of things. Where more complex data is entered such as "2(A1, A2)" these seem unaffected.
The field is set to text, I have set no validation rule, format or input mask. Just can't see why access is changing these values. It seems to be translating them, but I can't see a pattern.
Sorry if this is an elementary question, but here goes.
What I want to do is have Access run a query based on the user name "taken from a login screen". That query will return some values such as what team the Supervisor is responsible for, what days off his team has etc...
This information will be used to display all other queries that particular sup runs. When another sup signs in obviously the results will be different
And onto the problem
I have the query running and displaying the result in a datasheet view. I created this to see if the queries work. Now what I would like is to do away with this query (it pops up at startup) and have access save the user name in memory instead of running this query. I also need to figure out how to reference this "user name" piece of data, that will be in memory on the queries.
would appreciate any help you can give on this topic. I have been trying to solve this issue for a loooooong time.
I would like to know if I can control what field the check box enters the -1 value in my record depending on a value from another field in that record. In my table called workbook I have fields called, phone type which is a text field, wall and wm entry which are both yes/no fields. I want to put one check box on my form to check when a wall mount is needed for the device. The thing is there are two different wall mount sizes. So I need to check the phone type field on my form, if the value is ENTRY then I need to have it enter -1 in the WM Entry field. If the field anything other than ENTRY then the -1 value should go in the WALL field. Can this be doen and how do I code it?
