Any Help Is Appreciated...

i am a basic basic user in access, however i have the chore of creating a database for our products and sales reps. i have created a table and sepated the tables out using the analyze table function. it has now given me several tables. thats all i have done.
what i want to do is this:
create a form that my sales reps can use to create a quote request and print it out for the customer. i want each quote to be saved as well, per customer, per date.
the sales rep may only have 1 of the 2 items needed to preform the quote. when he types in 1 of the 2 items, i want the other 10 fields pertaining to that item to come up (the descriptions{many fields for that} and price).
i then want to be able to either print, email, or both this quote to the customer out of the dbase.
what do i need to do this? if there is someone out there that can help me with this, i am willing to pay to help set up this dbase for us.
thank you

I have a Dbase set up and ready to roll, but I haven't actually created the Dbase yet with Access.
I would very much like your opinion on my table layout and relationships.
You can view the design here (http://www.joyceandstevieb.com/Dbase.htm)
I am hoping to track shipments in and out, plus current stocks of items using Queries and Reports etc.
I have read a lot on Normalisation and realise that there a lot of fields in the "movement" table, although a number of them are "yes/no" fields to help with the queries.
Any advice is most welcome.
and as always, your time is much appreciated.

Hi,
I'm currently using Allen Browns pop up calander in an access database.
http://allenbrowne.com/ser-51.html
The calender allows the user to choose and add a date into a field.
When I run the access project i can see the pop up calander on my form, and use and interact with it to add in a date.
However when someone else on the network acceses the project, and they
open the form with the calander on it they get an error and are not able
to use the calander.
Is there something that i need to change to allow multiple users access
to use the calander?
Thanks for your time

Hello everyone. Hope your holidays are going well. I have been given the task of developing a DB that will be used to generate reports for scheduling services for clients. These are medically related services and are provided around the clock. I have divided the Services into two broad categories A&B for ease of discussion and I think it helps in the DB design. The reports will display client information, services, service detail, appointment frequency and times. The reports will be printed in duplicate, with one copy for technician providing service and the other for book keeping purposes. I have it in 5 tables:
1.
tblClient
Auto#-pk
Client ID
Client Last name
Client First name
Client Location
(pretty straight foward, single client, main table)
2.
tblServices
ServiceA1-5&B1-5
(Table with a complete list of all the services offered. Clients can have up to abut 6 different services at once of several different types. The services aren't really related to one another - for DB purposes...I think :D )
3.
tblServicesA
Auto#-pk
ServiceA1-5
Frequency
(The services provided here are really more of a maintenence type of service which occurs about 4times/day around the clock (known as the frequency). The technician observes the client, if service is being utilized,then the time listed on the report will be crossed out, if the service is not used the time will be circled on the report. Services in the A category are very straight foward. Each service has a frequency at which they are checked (as stated above 4 times/day for Service A), technician checks client, if service used, service is charged. Again, pretty straight foward, but wait till we get to ServiceB. The patient can have up to 3 services from this category on their report)
4.
tblFrequency
Frequency
Times
(This table is for the different frequencies at which all the
services are checked +/or performed. Each service in ServiceA category has only one frequency (4 times/day) we'll call fID. In ServiceB category, each service is associated with one (actually two, but we'll get to that later) frequency. In this category, there are about 13 different frequencies to choose from. All frequencies are associated with one set of times. For example: fID is associated with 0600, 1200, 1800 & 0000. Again, these times will be displayed on the reports used by the technicians (the frequency will also be displayed on the report). The frequencies of ServiceB are subject to change. When this happens, the technician makes appropriate changes on current report, then will update the frequency for future reports. Wasn't sure if a PK was necessary here.)
5.
tblServiceB
Auto# - PK
ServiceB1-5
Frequency
Medication
Dosage
(ServicesB3-5 are similar to ServicesA in that they are only associated with a single frequency that will not change. So on the report the service and frequency will be displayed.
ServiceB1 is not too difficult, but instead of having a timed freq/day, it only occurs on a 72hr basis. What needs to be displayed on the report will be the next due date of the service. I was hoping that the technican could just refer to order summary to select a date that the service will need to be 'observed', and enter this data as text in a field on a form. When the service is observed, it then needs to be observed again another 72 hours later, so the date will need to be changed. The problem is, that there are times when the observation of this service occurs before the 72 hrs is up, and times when it is done later than 72hrs, so I can't have the date automatically updated.
ServiceB2, a little tricky. ServiceB, like all the other services will have a single frequency which when selected will display the times the service needs to be performed on a report for technicians to refer to. It also has a secondary frequency that will also need to be displayed on the report, but only as a free text. There are not specific times that are associated with this secondary frequency, and like the date in ServiceB1, I was hoping it could be entered as text in a field on a form. ServiceB2 is also associated with a medication (in some
cases up to 3 medications). Each medication has a single dosage.
I'll end it here, hope the explanation doesn't make it seem any more complex than it really is.
Although I have been doing alot of research in MSA recently, I'm still very much a noob. Thanks for any help.

I would really appreciate some help with this:
I have two database tables:
-table one contains c.100 decimal lat/longs and a temperature.
-table two contains lat/longs for the whole Earth (lots!) and a temperature for each coordinate.
I want to query table one against table two and return a report which:
-returns a figure which is an average of the temperature four coordinates .5 of a degree N,S,E+W for each test site.
-compares the test site temp and the new averaged temp against each other
I'm told this should be quite straightforward but I can't figure out how to do this. I'd love some guidance.
Thanks!
P.S. I'm not worried about points near the poles being closer than those elsewhere at the moment (unless there is an easy way of dealing with this?)

I'm running Access 2000 through Citrix, 20 users internationally from 1 db. I'm working through Citrix network issues to split db with separate FE's for each user.
I have sporadic corruption due to this. But this morning I met a new breed of corruption. I preface this with the fact that I run a bat file nightly to do clean up and compact and repair the db. It verifies the db is not in use prior to running.
This morning we were presented with a hosed db.
The log file said updates ran fine.
In my main table the first record was garbage, including the Auto-num field. I found that my Primary key has lost it's index and references had become unchecked.
Correcting these issues got it running but does anyone have any clue what might have triggered this or even where I should start looking? Please help as I am at a loss.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have some basic VBA and ADO recordset exposure, and would like to create a form, that:
- allows a user to search 4-5 fields (client & business name based information)
- return options of records to view that match that data
- allow user to make a selection, which then provides another form with full details of that client's record(about 20 fields)
Can anyone provide an example or perhaps guidance on a good tutorial, that will take me through this process gently (and help me understand the process)!
Regards and thanks
Mack

I have designed a query with the following fields.
Date;
NumberofDaystoCallBack;
CallBackDate: [Date]+[NumberofDaystoCallBack]
I have created a formated field called DateToCallBack, which is the calculated field.
For example when I enter say today's date 03/11/07 in the Date field
and enter 10 as the number of days to call back in, the calculation field
works just fine and gives me the correct call back date which in this example
would be 13/11/07.
The problem I am having is,
I am trying to set a criteria on the calculated field for a
Between [Start Date] And [End Date], but when I run the query it gives me
all the day dates in the range I specified properly, but it gives me that in every month, when I only wanted one specific month.
For example,
I select between 1 Nov 07 and 8 Nov 07
It gives me all the 1st to the 8th of every month, when really I only wanted Nov.
Any help or suggestions? :confused:
