Adding Fields To A Form

Feb 21, 2015

Say you make a table with 10 columns. Then you make a form, and all 10 columns show up. Then you go back to the table and add 2 more columns. How do you get the 2 new columns in the form?

Forms :: Adding Fields In A Table And Having Output Fill Fields On A Form

Jan 29, 2014

I have a totalquery that runs fine and give me the sum for both fields I'm looking for but I can't get the outputs to fill the fields on the form. I have tried the Dcount query in the control source but that just returns an error and locks up access.

Code:
SELECT [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, Sum([Tble-wcDelays].HoursDelay) AS SumOfHoursDelay
FROM [Tble-wcDelays]
GROUP BY [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, [Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID
HAVING ((([Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID)=[Forms]![Frm-ePlusCent]![cleanID]));

That is the query.

Form - Adding New Fields Problem

Apr 6, 2006

Hi

I am unable to add new fields to a form in access 2000 and I suspect it may be because I have made so many changes to it over the last couple of years. As suggested by Help I have tried renaming the form but it makes no difference.

When I try to add a field the message I get is:

Microsoft Access can't create any more controls on this form or report.
If you have deleted controls from this form or report in the past, you may be able to rename the form or report and then add more controls to it.

I have spent hours puzzling over this and would really appreciate some help!!! I work for a charity and we cannot afford to buy in help!

I am no expert and would really appreciate some simple instructions! :confused:

many thanks
Lesley

Adding Fields From More Than One Table To A Form

Jan 13, 2005

Probably simple, but I cannot see how I add fields from different tables to a form that has already been designed. I can see how I achieve this when designing from scratch.

Thank you

Forms :: Adding Different Fields To A Form

Apr 3, 2015

I have a table Items, ItemSizes and ItemTimes. That is for my item, I also have a table tableShowCost which is
the sales I have made at shows. I created a query from all of Items, the size of the item (from table ItemSizes) and
the ItemTimes (from tableItemTimes). Then, I created form from all of that.

So, now I have a form the displays all of the information about my item. Back to the Table ShowSales, it has multiple sales of different items, I want to know the total amount of sales I have made, so, I just did a easy query that gets me the total sales, but, I don't know how to get this information to display on my form, nor how to link an item on the query that gets me the total of each items sold, to the form.

(Should of thought of zipping it first)

Also, if some one does ask and gets the database, could they look and figure out why I cant go to the next record after opening it from the main form?

Adding New Fields To Table Bound To A Form

Jan 31, 2005

I have a form which I've spend many hours designing to look and behave as I need it. It is bound to a table (get's it's data from there). I now want to add one or more new fields to the table (which I've done ok), but I can't seem to get the Form to see those fields. I've tried creating new controls on the form and the control source list to select from doesn't include my new fields.
Even if I write VB code embedded in the form to refer to the fields, the debugger trips on the field names saying no such method/object. The only way around it I've discovered is to create a new bound form which will mean re-dooing al the layout work again.

Surely this is a common situation which has an easy solution ?!!

Forms :: Type Mismatch - Adding Yes / No Fields To Form

Oct 29, 2013

I have a form that I am trying to add some yes/no fields to from my table. Whenever I add the controls to the form and attempt to open the form in form view, I receive the dreaded error: "Type mismatch in expression." I can't figure out what is causing this error, or where to look.

Attached is my relationships report. The yes/no fields I am attempting to add are located in tblRelationshipToBICs, tblIndustryClassification, and tblTypeOfBusiness. All of the fields (except pk) in those three tables are yes/no and I need to add them to my form.

Adding Existing Fields To Form Doesn't Allow For Record Selection

May 13, 2015

So, I have two forms that I am trying to make work the same way.

With F1Entry I can use the combo box in the header to select different request numbers.

With F2Finance I cannot do this. It works if I set the Form Record Source to T2FIN, but when I try to Add Existing Field, something about selector combo box breaks and I cannot select different request numbers.

Tables :: Deleted Fields Not Free Up For Adding New Fields

Aug 15, 2013

I reached the limit of 255 fields in a table. I just need to add one more field so I deleted several fields I no longer needed thinking I would then be able to add one more new field. However, I am still unable to add one more field. How to free up fields that are no longer needed?

Adding Fields Based On Values In Other Fields

Jun 6, 2007

Hi,

I am creating a small database to house results of certain tests. Is there a function in access that allows me to add fields if a result is out of the specification required. In other words I still need to record the out of spec results but I also need more fields to appear for the next lot of results to be entered, for example.

When cooking a batch of product I need to test the pH at the 30 minute mark if the pH is too low I will continue cooking the product for another 30 minutes and then test the product again. The cook time is not a constant so I never know how many samples are required, therefore I don't know how many fields i would need in advanced.

Adding Query Fields Together

Nov 10, 2005

My company has a microsoft access table with about 1200 IDs containing names, addresses etc.
Now I want to print this out in an excel sheet because I want to create address stickers, but I want every cell in the excell sheet to add information about the columns in the database together. I might be very unclear, let me demonstrate what I mean:
The Acess file might look like this:
id | name | address
1 | john | Street 01
2 | sara | Street 02

Now I want to have 2 excell cells which contain the information like this:
name_address
name_address

In my example, 2 cells with the following information:

john Street 01
sara Street 02

So I dont want 4 cells, I want to add the information together from 1 Id to 1 cell, but I also want to add linebreaks to it, It must eventually become an address sticker

How can this be done?

Adding Multiple Fields

Dec 28, 2005

Hello, I have what I believe to be a very basic, albeit wordy question regarding an Access based mailing list that I am designing. For the scope of this project, I have 7 fields: Position (the position of the person recieveing the mailer, So far all I have is the "Principal", these are all schools) Name (The name of the school), Address, City, State, Zip and SchoolID (this is the primary key and will be hidden)
My question is: How can I add multiple positions per School (Name)? I need to add 1st through 6th grade teachers as well as the councilor to each location. So each of these people will be sent a mailer. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to ask any questions needed.

Thank you

Adding Currency Fields Up

Aug 15, 2007

Hi,

I have tried to add up fields in a table but am struggling to get it to work. Can anyone help please.

In design view of tables, I have four fields (that I will be using in a a form eventually);

RaffleIncome
AlmsIncome
OtherIncome
TotalIncome

I want to get the TotalIncome field to automatically be the total sum of any or all of the other three.

I have tried putting =[RaffleIncome]+[Almsincome]+OtherIncome} in the control box of the TotalIncome field (a guess) in a form I made, and it gives me the total sum of the others three but does not save when I look at it in the table view. (that is, the TotalIncome column remains £0.00)

I am learning as I go along and am okay figuring some stuff out, but this has got me a bit frustrated, and I guess I cannot see the wood for the trees !

Thanks anyone

Adrian

Adding Fields To A Table

Mar 20, 2008

This is going to sound like a bizarre question, but, here it goes. Is there a way to add more than 255 fields to a table? Or is 255 the cutoff? Also, if you have two table with different information on one client, is there a way to add a client to one table and have it automatically add it to the second? Sorry about all of the wierd questions. Let me know if you know anything.
