I'm nearly finished my database now, but I just have a couple of loose ends to tie up. I have one last problem (hopefully) that I hope you guys can help me with.
On my form, I have a combo box. Underneath the combo box I have 2 check boxes. Under normal conditions, the checkboxes will be enabled and the user will be able to tick or untick the boxes. But if a certain selection is made from the combo box, the check boxes should be disabled and unticked.
is this good or it will be damn slow if i have 10,000 record... please give me suggestions on improvement
the software im develping has an single add function... this will add an employee record to the database and creating default values for other tables... the user then will have to modify these default values in its respective form like medical form or dental form... i have also a single delete function... this will delete all records of the repective employee in all table... i have multiple tables tblpersonalrec,tbldelinquency, tbleducationalbak, tblmedical.... i use this relationship so i can use cascade delete....
I have a simple access search form , that's based on a query that fill parameters from the form textboxes, when the access form loads its keeps prompting for parameters value which looks ugly .. I want to open the form, displaying all the records in the table and filter when i click search ..
I have a data entry entry form, that i want to generate success message after successful insert in database. I have done it in the button event if no error happens, still if i left all fields blank and clicked save, it displays the message ..
I need to change that to display please fill the textboxes then click save , and display success message when the row is actually inserted ..
In my table I have a list of employees name's going down in rows. At the top of each column I have a language (English, French, Spanish, German, etc). Then for each field I have a Yes/No checkbox.
I want to create a query that will return the names of employees that speak a certain language. I have created a form with the name of each language next to a checkbox. So each on my query I have each language at the top (Field) and I set the criteria to look for a (Yes/-1) to return those names that match.
The problem is that; I only get the names returned that match EXACTLY what my criteria was for. For example if Jon D. speaks both English and Spanish (both clicked Yes on the table) and I query for people that speak English Jon D. does not get returned because he also speaks Spanish! I only get him if I query for people that speak English AND Spanish.
How can I make a criteria that will return anyone thats speaks the language I was searching for even if they speak additional langauges???
This should be a very simple task but I'm getting Errors.
When I Pull in my access table to my VB project I get an Error like this:
Data Adapter Configuration Error
The wizard detected the following problems when configureing the data adapter for “Class1”.
Details: -Generated SELECT statement.
IErrorInfo.GetDescription failed with E_FAIL(0x80004005).
I tryed just recreating my access db but that didn't work either. Then I thought it might be something with my program but I was able to pull in a database I know works with other programs.
I also have another fairly simple question.
If I'm going about my programming and decide I need to change the database I need to delete the data adapter and dataset, well when I create that data adapter and dataset again it wont let me name it the same thing as before, is there any way I can do that? Thanks for the help guys, and girls if that's the case. Take care,
I have an access database which I have imported all information from an excel spreadsheet. The values in Access are the results of complex formulas and have resulted in values with many numbers after the decimal point (ie 1.593874522 etc). I have formated these values to 2 decimal points (ie 1.59) but when formatting a number, it just changes how that number appears.
Is there a way to remove the extra decimal points entirely? I understand that this will change the value entirely, but I want the actual value to reflect the number format.

I have tried to make a login screen, I have also searched for information and tried some of the examples but, I just can't get one to work. Is there someone or somewhere where I can get information on how to build one step by step in simple easy instructions....(access 2003).
Also, how do you get access to open all the windows, tables, queries etc in full screen mode. I have expaneded them and shut it down and then reopened it but they still want to open out of full screen mode.
Thanks, everyone has been a great help in creating my first Access program.
Ok I am right now making a simple Vendor/Product database to create a line sheet for some sales folks. I have 3 tables: Vendors, Products, and an associate entity Vendors_Products to relate the two. I have a form currently that draws the Vendor Name (primary key) from the Vendor table and the Product Name from the associate entity. This allows me to create new vendors and select current product types from a drop down box. The problem is that the drop down box is too long and it is tiresome when 1 vendor has 10 product types.
Can anyone tell me how to resolve this? I thought it would be better to have option buttons and display all available products. Then you could just click all of the option buttons that apply to that Vendor and it would create the relationships...is this possible?
Hi, I have looked at some of the threads here and it is clear that many of you are working on a much higher level than me and with a high degree of familiarity with the programme. I am hoping that someone here is able to give me some advice as I don't find the MS help files digestible. The task I have is to join 2 databases and produce a table from which I can run a mailmerge. I have managed to join the 2 databases and I used a customer ID as a common link. (my apologies if the terminology is incorrect) I now have all the data I require in one table. THE PROBLEMs I have multiple entries for some of my customers and would like to reduce this to single entries (which is understandable). Please tell me how to do this if you can, and keep it as simple as you can please.
I'm making a report detailing competitors final finishing positions in a competition.
The columns are (1) Place, (2) Name and (3) Points
I have the data for their names and the points they have scored, but how do I make the table enter the record number (starting at 1) in the first field???
Not sure what the issue is here but i am trying to append a Job number from a main database into two connected databases. The number is a sequential number i have created and the primary key. It is an autonumber field(obviously). The format is J0000 and the numbers start from J0001
I am using two different append queries to append them into the external databases tables. However (and here i think lies the problem) the fields i am inserting them into are text fields with the same format J0000. When i view the numbers in these tables, they are displayed as J1 or J9. The 0's are missing. Any ideas.
Hey guys, I'm just wondering how I could limit a field to using from 2 - 20 letters. If I placed the letter "a", I'd get an error saying how at least 2 letters must be there, and a maximum of 20. How would I do this?
Lastly, how can I make it so when I enter data into a form, I can click a button which adds it all into the table? When I do it normally, it's automatically transferred into the table as I type it into the form.
This is incredibly simple I know, but I am a n00b at Access. ^_^
OK, I have a strange problem... This doesn't seem to work..... It did... then I made some changes.... Can someone clue me in on what I am doing wrong? A query, simply summing some values in fields... no biggy...... BUT... The field TotalHours: ([SundayHours]+[MondayHours]+[TuesdayHours]+[WednesdayHours]+[ThursdayHours]+[FridayHours]+[SaturdayHours])
So why isn't this working? Can I use a simple VBA statement to sum these fields?
I am trying to create an IN query (ACCESS) which will firstly show the customers table (specific details) then the orders details should be in the IN query, I formulated this but it won't work:
SELECT s.CustomerID, Address, City, PostalCode FROM Customers s WHERE s.OrderID IN (SELECT s.OrderID FROM Orders p WHERE s.OrderDate = '1996') AND s.OrderID IN (SELECT s.OrderID FROM Orders p WHERE s.OrderDate = '1997');
Here is the one I did to show the customers and orders who made orders in 1996 and 97:
SELECT Customers.CustomerID AS Customers_CustomerID, Orders.CustomerID AS Orders_CustomerID, Customers.Address, Customers.City, Customers.PostalCode, Orders.OrderID, Orders.OrderDate FROM Customers INNER JOIN Orders ON Customers.CustomerID = Orders.CustomerID WHERE (((Orders.OrderDate) Between #1/1/1996# And #12/31/1997#));
it is probably something simple I am missing here! Sorry to keep asking :(
but I can't seem to figure it out. All I get is Null values when I run the query.
I have a form with a start text box and a end text box. I use the form name sucessfully in the criteria row so I know there is no problem with the form name. I also know there is no problem with the qry name. Does anyone see anything I am doing wrong?!?!
The query I am working in is labeled [qry_old_summary_date_range]. Just wanted to clarify that is not a problem.
I have a table with dates of deadlines and another with dates of submissions. For each deadline I want to know who submitted first. I figured that all I had to do was compute the difference between the dates and the select the minimum. However, Access rejects the Min() function in the WHERE clause. How do I avoid this?
I have a table (imported from excel) that is a pricing grid for blinds. The header row at the top is widths(mm) and the header row down the left is heights(mm). The data is the price. The import process makes the widths the column names.
height 600 800 1200 ... 300 $60 $80 $100 600 $80 $100 $120 900 $120 $140 $160 . . all I want to do is to take that table and make it flattened, like this:
I can't think how to do this in a query - I could take the flat version and create a crosstab to go the other way. Any clues - I don't want to change too much about the way the imported excel file looks becasue I have no control over that (I already discard miscellaneous heading and junk before I import it)
My Brain has completely lost all of it's gray matter.
I have two tables tbl_Employers and tbl_Services that are linked via a one to many relationship. Each Employer can have Many Services. The field i am useing in the relationship is EmployerID
If I build a simple select query using these tables I will see all of the employers that have a related record in the services table. Any employer could be listed there many times as per the relationship.
What i want is a simple count of how many employers actually have recieved a service.
Why is this so difficult for me to get my head around.
this is my query in design viewhttp://img99.imageshack.us/img99/3095/querytc3.th.gif (http://img99.imageshack.us/my.php?image=querytc3.gif)i use this query when entering datai want to know how i can set it up it display all or any one/two/none of the criteria i put into the question text boxes, number surname and state, or even just number, or just state.anyone?
this might be a crude roundabout way of doing things but it works as is, and i'm trying to streamline a little.
i have a database that contains all of my customer's details. once a month remove those whom no longer want my mailout, and export the remainder into excel so that my printer can print and stuff envelopes.
i record customers that no longer wish to recieve my mailout, by putting something(anything) in a column that says rts.
what i'm trying to work out is, how in a simple query i can prevent any record that has any value in the rts column from displaying the name/address etc.
if there's a code to say
if anything in rts exists then hide name address state postcode
I am working on a simnple form that has just a few simple calculations in it. One being wieght difference and the other being percentage weight difference.
I get Access to calculate the wieght difference easily, but Ican't then get it to calculate a percentage weight difference (in another cell).
This is what I have down for code.
If Weigh1 <> 0 Then WeightDiff = Weigh1 - Weigh2 End If If WeightDiff <> 0 Then PerWeightLoss = WeightDiff / Weigh1 End If
:confused: I have a logon form which works well and authenticates users via a table. The problem is when the form is loaded the user has to click into the text box to type their name. I want a cursor to be flashing in the text box when the form opens so the user can type their name straight away without having to touch the mouse. I have ensured that the tab index for the text box is first however this has not resolved. Is it something to do with focus? If so how to I ensure that the text box has focus on launching the logon form??
