Adding List Box To Display Multiple Hyperlinks Per Record

Jul 24, 2014

I have a table which contains a number of records, each with a load of different columns. However, the new way of doing H&S splits Risk Assessments into Short and Long COSHH forms. Each experiment only has one Short form, but can have from 0-20 (or more Long). I need a way of adding a box to the form that will return all the associated Long forms for that particular record. I have tried using List Boxes and Combo boxes as well as creating a separate table for the Long Forms, but it isn't doing what I had envisioned.

List boxes appear to do what I want, however they just dump all of the results from the selected columns into the table. I only want the data for the specific record in question. For example, my first record has 6 Long forms, but a list box basically just pusts a snapshot of the table in there rather than the specific results.

All the Short and Long Forms have to be hyperlinked to the associated documents. I have successfully done this for the Short.

Automatically Display Hyperlinks

Dec 5, 2006

I have created a table in Access 2000 that contains among other things, hyperlinks to .txt files. This is a CD database, and the hyperlinks link to .txt files (local) containing track listings. I have designed a form that displays each record (CD). I can get everything to display except the hyperlinks. How do I tell Access (w/VB) to AUTOMATICLLY display these .txt files (w/o prompting) as users scrolls through individual records? I don't want to manually enter the paths, and I don't want to have to click the hyperlink to display it. Just like the other fields, I would like them to display w/o prompting. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Adding Hyperlinks From Forms

Mar 4, 2005

What I want to do is add drawings and history files to my database. I have it set up in a table that just has my primary key field and 2 hyperlink fields for drawings and for history, this table is linked as a subdatasheet to my main table.

I'd like to know if it would be possible to create a form with a "browse" button to find the files and from here add the files to my hyperlink table.

Adding A Record To A Table From A Field List?

Mar 1, 2007

Hi,

I have a table that has records added to it using the following VBa code:


Const MyTable As String = "tblSampleSubmission"
Const MyField As String = "SampleName"
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim intCounter As Double
Dim LastDub As Double
Dim addString As String
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(MyTable)
Randomize
'LastDub = Me.txtStartValue - Was only used to start the random function later in series
addString = ""
For intCounter = Me.TxtStartValue To Me.txtEndValue
rs.AddNew
rs.Fields(MyField) = Me.SamPre & intCounter & Me.SamSuf & addString
rs.Fields("SubmissionNumber") = Me.SubNum
rs.Fields("CustomerID") = Me.CustomerID
rs.Fields("SamplePrep") = Me.SamplePrep
rs.Fields("Fusion") = Me.Fusion
rs.Fields("XRF") = Me.XRF
rs.Fields("LOI") = Me.LOI
rs.Fields("Sizing") = Me.Sizing
rs.Fields("Moisture") = Me.Moisture
rs.Update
addString = ""
If Rnd < 0.02 Then
'LastDub = intCounter
intCounter = intCounter - 1
addString = " DUP"
End If
Next intCounter
rs.Close
db.Close
Set rs = Nothing
Set db = Nothing

DoCmd.SetWarnings False
Dim stDocName As String

stDocName = "mroLOIAppend"
DoCmd.RunMacro stDocName

Exit_EnterBlast_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_EnterBlast_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_EnterBlast_Click




End Sub


What I would hope to be able to do is add a "standard" randomly to each SubmssionNumber (each SubmissionNumber might be 1-100 records). The record I need to add should be chosen at random from a list of 6 or so options and added at the end or middle or start of the job (SubmissionNumber) is this something that is easy to do or should I just give up and add it manually?

Thanks to everyone who has helped me in the past, it is getting me up to speed quickly. Access seems to be quite popular as I have contacted 3 developers to help with my dB but they are all to busy to help me so I am going it alone.

Forms :: Default Display Record From Filtered List Box

Apr 17, 2014

I have a form which displays records based on a selection from a list box on the form.

The default record displayed when I load the form is record 1 from the table, this is not an issue when I initially load the form but I also have options to filter the records displayed in the list box using various SQL statements, depending on the options selected.

However, when I apply one ofthese filters to the list box the default record displayed on the form still defaults to the first record in the table, which may not be included in the filtered list box.

Is there a way I can default to the first record listed in the list box rather than the first record in the table.

Modules & VBA :: Change Name Of Multiple Hyperlinks At Once

Nov 7, 2014

I have a table with 2 fields. One field is hundreds of hyperlink paths to folders on my computer. These hyperlinks all have their "Texts to Display:" the same as the path to the folder. In my second field I have the desired "Texts to Display:" for Field 1.

As far as I know you can only edit the "Texts to Display:" of hyperlinks 1 by 1. I was wondering if there is a way for me to replace all the display texts with the text located in field 2 all at once? OR if I can add the hyperlink path from field 1 to all the display texts in field 2.

Problem: Adding A Record Across Multiple Tables.

Feb 27, 2007

I have three tables setup in a 1 to 1 relationship using a Autonumber field as their primary keys. I created the seperate tables to group related data together and reduce the tables sizes in general. So think of it as one main table and two tables of extended data.

I need to be able to add a record to table 1 and have it use the same autonumber to reserve that row for data in tables 2 & 3 so that my relationships stay in sync. I want to update the data in tables 2 & 3 later when that information is available.

I have been breaking the database testing some things out like building a form from a select query using all three tables. When I add the record to table 1 nothing is added to the other two. Things get messy on subsequent attempts to add data to any of the tables.

I have avoided this problems in other tables by not using the autonumber datatype, however, I don't have a good unique key that can be manually entered and kept accurate, so autonumber solves that problem in this case.

My VB is very rusty but I'm thinking there should be a way, before update, to capture the autonumber being used for the new record and write it to the other tables. I'm thinking that would be one solution, but I can't seem to get started on that code. Any help or examples would be great.

Thanks,
Jim

General :: Adding Record To Multiple Tables

Jun 6, 2013

I have a main table with subject id and other fields. I also have 16 other tables which have questionnaire information at 17 different timepoints. In those tables, the subject id is the only connected field between the main table and 17 different years. When I add a new record (by subject id) on the main table, I want it to add that same subject id to the 17 other tables because that subject id will eventually get all 17 years worth of data. But even using subforms, it will not add a new subject to the other tables unless I add some sort of information such as (date received) into the subform.

Display Multiple Images Per Record Or A Form / Subform

Sep 27, 2011

Is it possible to display, in either a form, multiple images that are dynamically linked? Can they all be displayed at once 1 to many images, either by using navigation bars or scrolling through a subform? The links would be stored in another table within the same database and not as hyperlinks.

Conceptually it would be like scrolling through multiple records on a subform with images rather than alphanumeric data in fields.

Would like to know if this is possible and if so in what versions of ACCESS.

Is there add-on software that would make this possible.

Queries :: One Record From Multiple Selections In List Box

Aug 8, 2013

Short Version:

I have a table where one of the fields is a list box, where it is possible to select more than one option. The options correspond to records in another table. I have a query that includes this list box field. The problem is that if someone has made two selections in the list box, the query creates two records, each featuring just one of selections from the list box. Can I get this query to hold the two selections in one record? This might be especially challenging because the query field is pulling attachments.

Long Version:

I have a table [Master List] (primary key is TagNumber), where one of the fields is a list box, [Standard Methods]. You can select multiple choices in this list box, which corresponds to a table also called [Standard Methods]. In the Standard Methods table, there are two fields for naming the method and attaching the PDF which describes the method.

I have a query called [Get Attachments] that is set to bring in different attachment fields from different tables, including [Standard Methods]. The problem is that the query creates a different record for each selection made in the list box. For instance, if you select two standard methods for a certain tag number in the list box, this query will have two records for that tag number, each with one of the method attachments. Is there a way so that the query just creates one record, with both attachments in that record???

It should also be noted that I am using Outer Joins, so that the query includes TagNumber records from the Master List even if there are no attachments for it.

Query To List Multiple Records In A List From Multiple Queries

Jul 11, 2013

I have a DB where you there's 5 tables all linked together by one project ID

tables below

Project , Staff, Asset, allowances, travel, mark up

What I can do is create a new project, then add records to each of the other tables on what different items I require,

i.e. I create a new project - called project one, in the project table I create a record stating, name, time scale, client and location, then I add different records to each of the other tables on what I require all linked to the same project ID. (probably not explained that too well)

Now I want to create a query that lists all the requirements one after the other this will make it easier to create reports and to calculate costing's.

At the moment I have made 5 different queries listing all the data, then have one report containing 5 sub reports to display the data, no this does work.

Tables :: Adding Record To Multiple Tables

Aug 19, 2015

I am using Access 2007 on my front-end and SQL Server 2014 on the back-end. I have a table of Car Dealers and a table of contacts at the dealerships. These tables are SQL tables. The user can select a dealer and then see everyone that works at that dealership. When they look at this there is a field called Email. This is a hyperlink that they can click on to open Outlook and send an email. The table called DealerEmails is an Access table. My table layout is:

Dbo_Dealers
------------------
ID (PK)
DealerName
DealerAddress
DealerCity
DealerState
DealerZip
DealerPhone
ModifiedBy
ModifiedDate

Dbo_DealerContact
---------------------------
ID (PK)
LastName
FirstName
Postion
DealerID (FK)
ModifiedBy
ModifiedDate

DealerEmails
-----------------
ID (PK)
DealerContactID (FK)
Email
ModifiedBy
ModifiedDate

Now I'm trying to write the code to add a new contact. My code works but I need to obtain the AutoNumber from When I add a new record to the table dbo_DealerContact. My code is:

Code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Dim adoDealerContacts As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim daoDealerEmails As DAO.Recordset
Private Sub cmdSave_Click()

[Code] ....

I tried to add Me.Dirty=False, but this still returned a value of 0 into my variable intDealerContactID.

I also tried moving intDealerContactID = .Fields("ID").Value outside of the With block.

I'm aware that there is a command in SQL @@Identity. But I'm unsure how to use it in this context.

Is there a way to get the primary key from dbo_DealerContacts so I can insert that into my Emails table?

Forms :: Using One Dropdown List Box To Display A Selecting In Another Dropdown List Box?

Aug 4, 2014

I have a form where I have two drop down list box.The first list box is called Transaction_Type. It contains three values: Created, Allocated and Sold

The second list box is called Product_Status. It contains 6 items: Allocated, Produced, Reworked, Shipped, To Be Produced, Unallocated.

I have a products form. When a user created more inventory they will selected in the drop down list create, then a quantity. Then I would like the status of the product to update to "Unallocated".

When the user placed an order but doesn't finish it they will choose the status of the inventory to be allocated so I would like the product status to be updated to allocated automatically.

They other status the user will choose them self and do not need to be linked to each other.

In my vba code I have tried with the OnClick and AfterUpdate sub procedures with the following code.

If Me.Transaction_Type.Value = "Created" Then
Me.Product_Status.Value = "Unallocated"
End If
If Me.Transaction_Type.Value = "Allocated" Then
Me.Product_Status.Value = "Allocated"
End If

Yes when i select "created" from the drop down list it does not change product_status to say "unallocated"

Modules & VBA :: Adding Decimals Display Wrong Value

I have 2 controls on a form cmbFed and cmbState both are formatted as fixed with decimal places as 2. They display the correct values. cmbFed = .18 cmbState = .06 When I add a new control to add the 2. =[cmbFed]+[cmbState] result is .18.06 instead of .24 It looks like it is treating them as text. I even tried to do it in code Me.text639 = Me.cmbFed + Me.cmbState with the same results. It must be something simple I am missing a format for text639?

Display A List Of The Most Recent Records

Aug 31, 2005

hi. i would like this to happen....

i have a database where jobs are entered and the date and times of the jobs are kept in separate Date and Time fields.
to enter a date the user uses this method "30 12 05" and to enter a time like this "21.30"

i would like a query that will display the 10 most recent job additions according to their respective date and times. however, it will not be enough simply to view these records in a report.. what would be ideal is if the 10 records are opened.. in their original form format (goto next record...previous...(1/10...5/10) and the fields are editable like in the default job entry form. this is because after a job record has been added, maybe 20 or so minutes later, that record would need to be retreived as the last bits of information for that record will have been established.

how can this be acheived. i am clueless at the moment, so if there is a solution even resembling this scenario that would be ideal. (if a filter is going to be used...it can be either the 'date' or the 'time' fields, ideally though the query would use a combination of the two to retreive a more exact date to filter the records by)

thank you access world for even considering my dilema.

How To Display List Of Value Based On Combo Box

Mar 17, 2015

I want to create a combo box on a form where I can choose between 5 company names, and upon my choice, I want a list box or another combo box to display the departments under the company I chose (each company has different departments), and when I choose the department, I want to another combo box to display the limited job titles under that department.

For example: I choose company A > combo box displays the 5 departments under company A (dept.1,2,3,4) I choose dept. 4 > display job titles under dept. 4

How can I do that? Should I do a table? A query?

Using A List Box To Display Query Information

Jul 30, 2013

I'm trying to get a listbox to display results of a query that are only related to the current record being viewed.I have a form (setup as a continuous form) that displays a vendor table. I have a query setup to reference what parts a vendor supplies, and I would like those results to be visible on the form. I would use a subform to make this happen, but if I try and drop a subform on the main form, it says it won't do it with a continuous form. So, the listbox. I copied my form, dropped in the subform, and took a copy of the SQL statement. I then took that SQL statement and dropped it on the Row Source of the unbound listbox. I do get a return of Parts and Prices, but its the whole list, not just a list for the currently displayed vendor. My SQL is currently thus:

Code:
SELECT tblPrice.[Part Number], tblPrice.Cost, tblPrice.[Price Date], tblPrice.[Bulk Discount], tblVendors.[Vendor Name]
FROM tblVendors INNER JOIN tblPrice ON tblVendors.[VendorID] = tblPrice.[VendorID];

I have tried to wrap my head around it, and I'm stuck. GoogleFu has also failed me, as I can't find something quite on point to what I'm doing.

How To Display Data From A Relation In List Box

Jul 3, 2013

I made a database with 3 tables:

"city"
"company"
"person"

Each company has a director (I choose from a list that's bound to "person" by its ID field)

Each person lives in a city (I choose from a list that's bound to "city" by its ID field)

So:

- a person's city is stored in "person" as the ID of "city", so I only have numbers (1, 2....)
- there can be two persons in "person" with the same name (the only thing that differs them is the city they live in)

The problem is:

When I try to choose a director in "company" from a list, it shows me the name, surname and the ID of the city the person lives in, all from the table "person". The trouble is, since there can be two persons/directors with the same name, I really need to see their cities (the real city name, not just its ID). But I still want the city in "person" to be stored as ID of "city".

I attached my database so you can see what I'm writing about.

List Box Won't Display Time Correctly

Jun 25, 2014

What I want is for the "Time In" column in the listbox to show the time as hh:mm, just like the other two. The listbox is pointing to the table correctly, as evidenced by all the data showing up, but what floors me is despite the "sign_in" table showing time in all three columns in the desired format of hh:mm, the listbox seems to have its own thoughts about how to display the called data.

Combo Box - Adding Further Info - Not In List

Dec 6, 2006

Does anyone know of a way to allow a user to add further info to another field on the same record that's created by a combo box that is using the Not In List method?

Dim strsql As String
Dim i As Integer
Dim Msg As String

'Exit this sub if the combo box is cleared
If NewData = "" Then Exit Sub

Msg = "'" & NewData & "' is not in the list of Callers names." & vbCr & vbCr
Msg = Msg & "Do you want to add it?"

i = MsgBox(Msg, vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Unknown Caller...")
If i = vbYes Then
strsql = "Insert Into tblCallersName([CallersName]) values ('" & NewData & "')"
CurrentDb.Execute strsql, dbFailOnError
Response = acDataErrAdded
Else
Response = acDataErrContinue
End If

I need to log a persons name & phone number without having to re enter it again the next time.

To log the name I use a combo box that lists all the previously added names & it also allows you to add further details if the name does not already exist

I now need to work out how to also add the phone number without having to manually go into the names table to add it in.

If anyone understands what I'm talking about then you're halfway there :D

See attached db



thanks
