I am currently looking for a way to add data in a form with picture and then be able to view all entries with data.
Basically what I want to see is "product image > item number > client > description > material" with for example 500 entries, i want to be able to see a whole list of all entries. I would like to be able to make every entry as described above.
i have a main form named(EMP) i have a subform named(SEMP)with EMPID i have an another form Named(SDetail) with EMPID i want to open form Sdetail with filter records for data select in subform (SEMP) ,EMPID field Subform SEMP in as datasheet view. i can open sdetail for selected records only
View 14 Replies View RelatedThe form is specifically made to be wider than the screen, so that there is a scroll bar at the bottom. I have an embedded picture for the background which is intended to be the size of the form, meaning that the picture is also wide.
In Design view, I can see that the background picture fits the form perfectly, which is what I want to see in Form View.
In Form view, though, the picture is squished to fit the screen. The only time it doesn't do that is if I set the Picture Size Mode to Clip, but then it only shows a portion of it, and when I scroll horizontally, the background picture doesn't scroll with it.
What the database currently has: A payment entry form consistenting of many fields. This form populates a payment entry table. Some of the fields within the payment entry form are linked to other tables and queries for data (such as a recipient list).
What the database now needs: A group payment option. Should ten people attend a dinner, the total cost needs to be divided among the attendees, and then the payment entry form table populated with ten different entries and the subdivided cost of the dinner per person.
My thoughts: The most ideal thing to do is to have a hidden recipients window show up when the user indicates that this is for a group event. The user could then add all the additional recipients (beyond the primary which is already collected on the form), and the total amount for the meal. The database would then generate an entry for each recipient listed, dividing the total cost among them, and then simply duplicating the rest of the information as is.
I have a login form. 2 spots for users to input and ID and their name. I want to do error checking to see the user inputs a wrong name or wrong id with their corresponding name or ID. For example, I don't want User A to be able to login with User B's name. If User A inputs their ID and inputs User B's name, I want to show an error message stating the their is a mismatch of credentials. Here is my code
Private Sub Command12_Click()
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim txtID As Variant
txtID = Forms![LoginForm2]![txtEmployeeID]
txtName = Forms![LoginForm2]![Text13]
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT * FROM CoachTable WHERE EmployeeID = '" & txtID & "'", dbOpenDynaset)

I have quite an extensive form linked to a table. When I add new columns to the table I seem to have a problem getting the form to read the data.I have just added a numerical column to the table and added a text box on the form that is bound to it. When I try to pull up the value using VBA it is blank, even though an entry is visible on the form. I have set the text box to general number and the entry shows in the actual table. When typing in the entry into VBA it capitalises where required so it must be registering the table entry. However the value it pulls remains blank.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm fairly new to access and have been tasked with fixing a database that to my knowledge is built incorrectly but due to budget constraints and the time it would take to build a new one, we have to stick with this one. Here's my problem, in the database is a form that we use to create new entries in a table but when I try to create a new entry through the form, it creates multiple entries in the table with the rest of the data split between all the new table entries. Is this something that is caused by us moving over to the most current version of Access? Is there a way to fix this problem given the software we are using? At one point I had recreated this table because we had been having issues with other aspects of the database (security deposits were not being updated when entered through this form).
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have an unbound form which is in the "data" format of design (i.e. I want it to look like a table when displayed) my problem is that I want to add lines to it dynamically through a querry but when I try to add multiple lines, it deletes the previous line and adds the new line. What I want is to append the new line to the form. How can I do it????
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm a novice Access user and I've been put in charge of changing this. The database is on a shared device. I copied a working frontend (access file) to another machine and used the link table manager tool to find the new database. Now when I open the table view mode I can see the table data, but when I open the form, it doesn't show the data at all and it only lists 1 record. I know this sounds like a really stupid question, but is there one more step or am I in insert mode?
Thanks a bunch for your help.

In a table I have three fields 1. City - which is a combo box linked to a query, 2. State - a text box, 3. postal Code - a text box
When i put them on a form I use the info selected in the City box to populate the info in the State and Postcal Code boxes.
The Control source for the city is SELECT tblPostcodes.ID, tblPostcodes.Pcode, tblPostcodes.Locality, tblPostcodes.State FROM tblPostcodes;
Then on the form i put the control source of the state box as =City.column(1) and Postal code as =City.column(3)
This works fine on the form- and the information is retained - but the datasheet view of the table does not record either the State or the Postcode data that was entered. Is this because I put the control source on the form and the table is not recognising it? if this is the case how do enter it from the table?? really confused...
I have a main form (tsTimeSheetMain) which contains a sub form (tsTimeSheetDataNewSub) in data sheet view. When I click off one row onto another row in the sub form, it triggers this code:
Forms!tsTimeSheetMain!ProjectMonSum.Requery
i.e. it tries to requery the ProjectMonSum field (on the main form) which is a dsum calculated field. This works fine and updates the ProjectMonSum field (which dsums values from the same datasource as the subform.
However, this seems to put the cursor back to the top left field in the subform (datasheet view), rather than leave it in the field I click on (in the subform).
Why is this happening and what is a decent workaround this issue? I just want to update the calculated dsum field each time you update values in the subform.
I am trying to create a form with a datasheet view that will show me all exceptions worked on all member accounts. I have over 10k members that each could have multiple issues (exceptions) worked on their account. I am using MS Access 2007.
Example: I have a member John Smith, with member id of 1234-00 that has multiple "exceptions" worked on his membership, say 5 database records for his account. My initial query I only want to see him listed once. I then would double click his Member ID to open all activity of his account.
I found the code below and modified it to fit my database and it brings me back the results I need for the above. However, if a material change is made on John Smith's account, his number is incremented. His number would be incremented to 1234-01. The next material change 1234-02, etc. I am looking to modify the code below, or another way to do it, that ignores the "-" and any numbers after it. The numbers before the "-" will never change. I searched and saw the TRIM function but couldn't get it to work.
Below is the code I'm using that has the correct names from my database. I have a primary key set up that increments and is tied to the exception, not the member id.
SELECT firstname, lastname, exceptionswrkd.memberid
FROM
exceptionswrkd AS base
INNER JOIN (
SELECT memberid, Min(id) AS which_id
FROM exceptionswrkd
GROUP BY memberid
) AS sub
ON base.id = sub.which_id;
I created a new field as a text box, converted it to Combo box, then the Values are pulled from a query and all that works fine.
I have a form that opens and displays these Fields in a Data Sheet view and the new Combo box doesn't drop down and is flagged as a text box in the property bar but no way to change it??
I need the drop down like the other Category field I have, that works but this one doesn't.
See screen shot.
You can see in the Category field, there is a Drop down, but in Category II there is not, even though this is a drop down field. - BUT in this data sheet view it doesn't show it as a drop down.

i have a report that displays 12 fields of date sorted by a case number. I have a problem when there are two or more entries in the db with the same case number, but different data in the other 11 fields. My report displays each of entries in the db for the case number, but carrys the the data from the first of those entries through out all the entries. I'm not looking for an exact solution here, just for someone to get me pointed in the right direction. Is it a sorting and grouping error or something of like?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there any way user can verify the data that its enter correctly, for example I want a button on user form, after every 14 entries when user hit that button it bring the sum of 14 entries.

I need to know if I can store data in more than one field, without allowing Duplicate entries.
Example: We have to send out letters with a claim number on it, sometimes we need multiple claim numbers on a letter, up to about 10 claim #'s is the most I've seen thus far.
We mail merge into Word to create the letters.
However, these claim numbers cannot be duplicated within the database and in order for this to work with the mail merge, I need several fields to store the claim numbers.
Fields are:
ClaimNumber
ClaimNumber2
ClaimNumber3
etc....
To be more specific. I probably have a bad data structure as I was kind of rushed and a little inexperience with putting the database together. It's for work and sometimes management just doesn't want to wait, they are so negative.
In brief, most everything is in 1 table and I know from reading this forum that I shouldn't do that, but that's another story.
Further, a claim# is tied together by the same claimant, the relationship code is what separates the claimant with the family, the insured id# is used for all claimants within the family.
You can also tie the claim# to a provider id#, some providers such as clinics and large hospitals have multiple providers that use the same provider id#, so a suffix code is used to separate the providers within that same #.
Please feel free to ask additional questions and I will give you the additional information you need to help me. Thanks again.
P.S. - Last year I created the database and this year I am improving it, so expect more posts from me in the future. I really appreciate all the help I get from everyone here!!!!

I have a table that is linked to a survey and pulls data from the limesurvey backend.
The user would like to add a local field, so they can add entries to each row of data.
Is that possible ?
I'm using Access 2010. I have a form that has a combo box. The combo box lists all employee names and one has to be selected. I've been adding employees over time as new employees come. This DB is 3 years old so there are many employees showing in the combo box selection that are no longer here. I'd like to only have the current employees visible but I do not want to just delete them from the Table because then the historic data wouldn't be complete. How can I only show the current employees in the combo box and maintain the data in the table?
View 1 Replies View RelatedRight now i have a qry that takes ID - Name - Order - RepeatOrder - Month - Department.
Now when i run the qry what i want is a grand total of Order/Repeat Order by Name for the Month, what is happening is the qry is creating multiple entries for different departments. I even have Department "Group by" but still causing the issue, For example:
For APR:
4/1/14 Dep A 12 2
4/1/14 Dep B 10 2
However i do not want them separated, how to i merge the data into 1 entry? 4/1/14 22 4?
I seem to be have trouble resolving an issue whereby data entered via a combo box based on another combo box from separate tables/queries is not able to be retained when the data in the original table has been "discontinued". The database in question has changing items that are continually updated and/or discontinued. However when these items have been checked as "discontinued", the old entry data is then updated and the fields are empty.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe next stage I'd like to include is a match and enter pricing details. We get a lot of repeat work that is entered onto our system, due to the nature of the work we do each item is then checked individually. There is a portion of this that could be automated.Our order intake table has an amount of information, various bits of which are supplied by various customers, but not always all of the information is required or given.
Id like a price to be copied from a previous record where the "shots" field matches a previous entry.The other fields that would need to be similar are the "coverage" "drawing no" "pattern no"..But only when these fields are populated, we often, but not always put a - in these fields where the information is not given. I think this may be bad practice, but it shows us the information has not been supplied, and not just missed from the order.
To sum up, when an order is completed i'd like to have an afterupdate event that searches the previous records, where cover, drawing no / pattern no are *matching* and the shots do match, then copy the price of a matching record, where that record is within 12 months of today (using the date_rec field) and then tick an "automated_price" field so i know the price has been generated by the system.
hi
I have a query I'm creating that is using a joined view. I'm joining two tables and whereas the first contains unique data to each field the second contans class information so for example while all users are unique many may be assigned to the same class. When i use the join it therefore dupliactes all the class information in the query.
how can i set up the query so that the class information is only output once and not duplicated along with a user every time ?
cheers

I have a main menu that I select things to open. Most of the things I open I open in form view but some I want to open in data sheet view.
Without recoding my menu code is there a way to specify in the form to be opened that it should open in data sheet veiw?
Right now I have the default view as data sheet view in the forms but because my calling code is not specifying any view they default to form view, and again I don't want to edit that code in my main menu.
How can i see the most frequently used data in a field?
For example if i have years put in a field, how can i see what is the most frequently used year and also how many times it's used? It will be a plus if i can see all the years in order.
Also if i have one field and in that field i have more than one name, can i find again which is the most frequently used name?
