Adding Same Data To Different Field Within Another Table
Apr 14, 2013
I have tblCategory and tblExercise. The data in tblExercise can sometimes match with more than one record in tbCategory. When inputting data into tblExercise how can I choose to have that stored under more than one field in tblCategory?
Example:
tblCategory: Arms
tblExercise: TRX Biceps Curls
so TRX Biceps Curls can also be under
tblCategory: TRX
Right now I have to input TRX Biceps Curls under Categories Arms and TRX. Very time consuming.
I have a query all set up and now I have to add one field from another table in it. I am looking for a date which has the criteria Now() - Last Movement Date. Last Movement Date is the column I am taking from the other table which I just added which is the ZLX02 table. When I run the query, everything but the Last Movement Date shows up. What can I do to get the Last Movement Date to show? Check out the attached pics.
I wonder if someone can help with what must be an easy solution to this problem.
I have a table with 350,000 records, but without a unique identifier field. I just want a simple incrementing number field to become the primary key but dont know how to add this in. I cannot add an autonumber as there are two many records - it falls over.
Ive tried exporting it all to excel, but as well as being cumbersome, something went wrong and so I'm back to square one.
I think there must be a way to add an incrementing number either via a query or in VBA but I dont know how. Please can somebody provide a solution.
Hi. I have a table with a NAME field and a GENDER field.
How would I code a query so that if the gender is MALE than MR. would be added to the front of the existing data in the NAME field? MRS. if gender is FEMALE?
i.e., the result would be MR. SMITH, MR. JONES, MRS. CARSON...
hi I had a form with TO,DATE,BODY and a button . on click of a button this fileds should get added to a table. I have created a table with same fields. Thanxx
I was wondering if it was possible to do this, currently if I need to add a new record, I have to add it all in the tables section, this works fine but would be easier if it could be done through the switchoard somehow.
I want to have a query that I run at the end of each Month to track a workers production and to store that data in a table for each worker by month. Can this be done?
Something like
Worker Jan Feb Mar Mike 45 33 95 Sue 125 44 02
If this can be done could someone explain to me how to do this. I don't even know if a table can be used to keep stats over months and years.
Please bear with me, first post, trying to get to grips with Access for work!
We (a primary school) had a "bespoke" database set up using MS Access by someone who has long left the area and now we need to make changes and I, as the most computer literate person on site, have been volunteered to make these changes.
My level is beginner (for now) and my first job is to add some new options to a "Titles" table, four columns, six records. Column1 = ID#, Column2 = Male Titles, Column3 = Female Titles, whilst Column4 seems to hold items from Columns 2 & 3.
If I add a futher option, I get the error "Can't perform cascading operation: Entry must be one of the Titles as featured in the drop-down box or in the Titles table.
Now, as far as I can tell, I HAVE added the new option to the Titles table, and they DO show in the drop down box in the main spreadsheet display, BUT the error comes back as soon as I try to confirm the new title.
This may be a very neebie question, but I have a form with drop downs for data choices. When an employee finishes with the selections, I would like all the data transferred to a table as a record. How would I go about doing this.
I have an existing FORM called Evaluations where you can select a trainer and a trainee from two different combo boxes. Once a name is selected from both of the combo boxes I click on an assign button and I want it to record those two names selected into my evaluations table in the Trainer_Name and Trainee_Name columns.
I have a query based on two tables and I have created a form based on that query. Now I want to take input in the form and then add that data to one of the tables, that the query is based on. How can I do that?
Table 1 has all of my unique data within it. People within this table may have watched the video once or several times. People within Table 2 have watched the video several times.
I want to add a flag for "Multi" to Table 1. And, where a person is not a "Multi" create a flag that reads "Single".
I've spent countless hours (probably days) trying to achieve this and have failed miserably. Whatever approach I take I end up creating a new table that just contains the "multi" people.
my problem is that when i make a booking on my booking page it all saves, but when i go to the table where the bookings should all be kept, they all dissappear and only the recent booking i have made shows.
The attachment is the database Im working on and I have a problem. I need to add a supplier Product number in there some where so I could keep the numbe as reference and so it may be easier to enter items recieved. in the form section, I will have Invoice with a sub form Invoice details. I need to put suppliers Item number somehow so it would search and if the item is on the product list it would fill out the rest of the values.
should I make a separate table for suppliers product number or should I just include that into the invoice detail? I dont want to put it in the product table since I get same Items from different suppliers.
I have a field for Item Price. It would be a currency field, but I want it to be able to work with up to 6 decimal places. currency only seems to handle 4. So, in the table, i changed it to a Single. In the form, I left the control on Currency.
If I type in $1.43, instead of storing $1.43000000 it stores $1.43003243953
Why is it adding all these bogus sub decimal numbers? Any clue?
I have got a a form storing all employee's information and on that form I have a lookup field which looks up all the records in the "Qualification table" and the user can select multple qualifications. What I want to add to the lookup field is a data box so you can select a qualification and then enter the date that it expires (different for expiry date for each employee) How do I do this?
I have added the date field to the qualification table but when I create the lookup field on the form it shows the qualifications and a blank column next to it which data can't be enteed into.
Hey, im developing a taxi service database and i am working on adding new customers to the customers table through a form using text boxes. Im wondering if its possible to have text boxes as inputs and once all the data is entered (first name, last name etc) have a button to simply click and have all the data transferred to the table. Im also trying to do this without having all other records shown as well.
I've included a screen and the db to show you what i mean: http://shieldfilez.fasthost.tv/images/screen.jpg
I have a form (called Form2) with say 3 text boxes, called txt_Field1, txt_Field2 and txt_Field3.
In txt_Field1 the user specifies the number of records to be added to an existing table. The fields txt_Field2 and txt_Field3 are used to pre-populate the records with default values.
Furthermore, I have set up a table called Table1. It's headers are ID, Strategy, divRate. ID is Autonumber, Strategy is Text, and divRate is Number.
Suppose the user inputs the following on Form2: txt_Field1 = 3 txt_Field2 = Covered txt_Field3 = 0.04
How do I programmatically add 3 records (since txt_Field1 = 3) to Table1 such that the table will look like:
I have created the code below to add a new column to a table each month. This may not be the best database design but it meets our needs for now.
However I am having difficultly with the code below. The CreateField Function is unable to accept the parameter periodDate. Any Suggestions on this would be apprerciated
Function DateField() As Long
Dim colFullName As Object Dim dbsCurrent As Object Dim yearInt As Integer Dim monthInt As Integer Dim table1 As Object
Set dbsCurrent = CurrentDb Set table1 = CurrentDb.CreateTableDef("103TblCustomerBalancesCombined")
yearInt = Year(Date) monthInt = Month(Date) - 1
If monthInt = 0 Then periodDate = CLng(yearInt - 1 & 12) Exit Function End If
If monthInt < 10 Then periodDate = CLng(yearInt & "0" & monthInt) Else periodDate = CLng(yearInt & "" & monthInt) End If
Set colFullName = table1.CreateField(periodDate, DB_TEXT) table1.Fields.Append colFullName
I am really struggling w/ the following & would greatly appreciate advice!
I want to add several Fields to a Linked Table in Access. The Access wouldn't let me do it because it is a Linked Table. What should I do?
There is also a nicely designed Form that goes w/ that Linked Table. So I figured that once I add the Fields in the Table then I can add them to the Form too. - But can't even add the fields yet....
I am building a DB for my college, it is needed to replace a spreadsheet they have in place. The spreadsheet is used to monitor and track Students grades.
Each unit a student passes gives that student a certain number of points, the number of points depends on the grade (e.g. a student will get more points for a B than they would for a C). The point of the DB is to input all the students grades so that student can see how many points they have.
I was wondering if there is a way to add a value to a field, so if I put in a field that a student got a B grade the database would know how much a B grade is worth points wise. Each field should be added together to generate an overall score. Is this possible?
I am using a form to add a record to a table and need to be able to specify one of the fields in the table that will be added to. This field is predetermined by another form selection. If there is a way to force a value on a title box with a control source this would also do the trick.
I have a form for entry and some fields are computed or result of a query from another table. I have a function that looks up a value from another table like so
************************************************** ******** Public Function GetTargetType() As Variant GetTargetType = DLookup("type", "tblFormulations", "[tblFormulations!formulation]=Forms![frmNmsConsumptionEntry]![formulation]") End Function ************************************************** ********
Which works fine when I test in the immediate window.Then I have this form event. This however does not insert this value when I am adding records using my continuous form.
************************************************** ******** Private Sub Form_BeforeInsert(Cancel As Integer) Me!target_group = GetTargetType() 'Forms!frmNmsConsumptionEntry!target_group = GetTargetType() '[tblNmsConsumption.target_group] = GetTargetType() End Sub ************************************************** ********
making sure I can insert this value once retrieved.
