Im trying to make a button that sends the current open record information to another table. I created an append Query but it is pulling nothing. Can someone help me figure out how to send the current open file to a seperate table?
View RepliesI am trying to open a form with some records taken from one table, then alter couple of data in it and after that most importantly to append current records into a different table. The reason I need to append is that I need to keep track on every occurrence on same fields.
It looks like this:
SerialNumber(Field 1), ServiceDate(Field 2), ServiceEngineer(Field 3)
Now suppose same serial number called again and asked for service, I need to still keep record on how many times this same serial number had service.
I have a form with a subform in Datasheet view. I want the user to double click a record in that subform and a query to ammend it to another table.
I want to trap the double click event of the subform but
how do i run a query based on a current record in a subform?
This is my first time posting to a forum so don't hesitate to correct me if I am doing something wrong.
I am trying to create autofill templates based on the worktype.
How do I append data to the current record only!
I have a table that contains all of the job information including a record autonumber.
I have made a form using this table and it includes a subform for charge items from a separate table.
My users are complaining about having to key in every line item and want the form to autofill the subform for charge items based on the worktype field.
I have written an append query which is correctly extracting the worktype field and updating the charge items fields but it is doing so for every record with the same work type. I just want it to update the current record I am looking at.
hello
does anyone know how to append a string to an existing text field so i have a record and the value of this text field is say "abc" i run an update query which pulls the string "def" out of another table and then now the value is "abcdef"
I have tried the following sql
UPDATE TBL_TmpSubmission
LEFT JOIN TBL_PropertyType ON TBL_TmpSubmission.PropertyType = TBL_PropertyType.PropertyType SET TBL_TmpSubmission.ErrorCode = [TBL_TmpSubmission].[ErrorCode] & "property"
WHERE (((TBL_PropertyType.PropertyType) Is Null));
which I expected to append the string "property" to the field which already had the value "measure" but it just overwrites the string having the same effect as
UPDATE TBL_TmpSubmission
LEFT JOIN TBL_PropertyType ON TBL_TmpSubmission.PropertyType = TBL_PropertyType.PropertyType SET TBL_TmpSubmission.ErrorCode = "property"
WHERE (((TBL_PropertyType.PropertyType) Is Null));
i have a temporary table in my db which is checked for errors, that is to say there are three fields in a further lookup table and three of the fields in this temporary table TBL_TmpSubmission are checked for nonexistent property types, fuel types and measure types by queries with the structure given above
it all has the effect i need of filling in this error code field so the error types can be displayed using a later select query - except when there is say a measure error AND a property error because then one query just overwrites the effect of the other
what i want is to be able to use say letter codes "P", "F", "M", append them to one another and then in my later select display that code so the user can see all the fields which need to be corrected
I have two append queries that I use to archive certain data from two different tables to one archive table. The queries are run from the corresponding forms of the two tables. I would like to be able to add the form name to the append query.
That is, if the old data is coming from FrmA, then the Archive table would show that the old data came from FrmA or TblA, etc. I added a field in the Archive table [FormName]. I know you can call the name of the form by =frm.name, but how do I append this to the Archive table without having to have the Archive form open?
I have form1 that has the current commodity When i need to change the commodity I want the following to happen when they click a button: open the commodity change formthat form has a drop down to select a new commodity and a date of commodity change date fieldWhen the user submits it will move existing value to history along with the Date of change (separate table)Next it will take the value in the new commodity box and make it the current commodity
My thinking is that when i click the button to open the change form I can save the commodity at that time but I wont have the date yet. Just not sure of they best way to go about this.
I am using access 2010. I need to rename a table when I import the a new table. But I can't get the docmd rename code to work. I also want to append the current date on the end i.e.
docmd.rename, "tblOldTable(Currentdate)", actable, "tblOldTable"
doesn't work.

Is it possible to copy the current record on a form to a different table?
Example:
Form Name = Training Orders bound to a table with the same name.
2nd Table Name = History
I need to export certin fields from the Training Orders Form into the History Table. Below is the way I am trying to make it happen, but it does not work.
With Me.RecordsetClone
.AddNew
![Forms]![History]![Last Name] = Me.[lastname]
.Update
Me.Bookmark = .LastModified
End With
End Sub
I have a database that includes the following items related to my question:
- Tables: tblCases, tblPeople, tblPeoplePerCase,
- Forms: frmCases, frmPeople, subfrmPeoplePerCase, frmSearchPeople
What I'm trying to do is automate the process of adding a selected person to a particular case. What I'm thinking is that frmCases (which includes subfrmPeoplePerCase) will include a button to add a person to the case. Once clicked, frmSearchPeople would open. Once a person is selected and frmPeople displays their information, a button would then be displayed/enabled on frmPeople to add them to the current case in frmCases. Once this button is clicked, it would display a message box asking to confirm if PersonID should be added to CaseID. If confirmed, the information is then appended to tblPeoplePerCase (which includes PersonID, CaseID). The user is then brought back to frmCases and the subfrmPeoplePerCase displays the newly related information.
I am attempting to append 2 fields from one table and one record to another table. I have been using DLast("field","table") in an append query to get this done. However, it blows up occasionally and points to the wrong record.
How does one easily and reliably select the right record to use for an append?
is there an easy way to copy the current record on a form when clicking a command button such that a snapshot of that record is copied to a table for archiving purposes?
the table has about 120 columns so it is cumbersome to write an Insert Into sql statement within VBA code.
what i am attempting should be quite straightforward...i just want to take the current record in its entirety that is from a single table and append it to another table of the same structure.
any help would be appreciated!
I have this table that records sales events for properties, with multiple sales records for some parcels. Each parcel has unique field: MapTaxlot. I want to create a select query or make table query that shows only the most recent sale event for each parcel. Instrument_Date is the date field for the sales records.
See attached example of the data table below.
What is the simplest method to accomplish this?

I have a form with a drop down list, when the user selects an option and press a button. I would like to add the value of the drop down list to a table as a new record.
Thx :mad:
I have tables Account (PK acctnum) and Orders (linked via acctnum to Account). There are multiple orders per account that need to be billed individually. When creating an invoice I need to add the Account to the Invoice table and the Orders to the InvoiceDetail table. I use 2 queries to accomplish this. The first one though adds multiple records to the invoice table (because of the one to many relationship). I need to keep that so I don't bill anyone with no orders.
INSERT INTO Invoices ( InvoiceDate, AcctNum )
SELECT DISTINCT Date() AS InvoiceDate, Account.AcctNum
FROM Account INNER JOIN [Order] ON Account.AcctNum = Order.AcctNum
WHERE (((Order.OrderNum)=[Forms]![Account]![Order].[Form]![OrderNum]) AND ((Account.BillingCycle)="on discharge") AND ((Order.EndDate) Is Not Null) AND ((Order.Closed)=Yes) AND ((Order.PatientName)=[Forms]![Account]![Order].[Form]![PatientName]));
Is there any way to get it to only add one record? I've tried limiting it with several parameters to no avail.

I have designed a database that has two forms as inputs to a table. The first form is a checklist and when it is completed it saves all fields except the ManagerID field. I then use the blank ManagerID, clientID and Date to pull onto a form for the manager to complete. On completion I want the ManagerID to save into the current records so they do not show up in the manager checklist forms and I then have a complete record. I have been searching online and cant seem to see how the best avenue is. I have an append query, see below
Code:
INSERT INTO ChecklistResults ( ManagerID )
SELECT ChecklistResults.ManagerID, ChecklistResults.ClientID, ChecklistResults.DateCompleted
FROM ChecklistResults
WHERE (((ChecklistResults.ClientID)=[Forms]![TeamLeader]![ComClientNotFin]) AND ((ChecklistResults.DateCompleted)=[Forms]![TeamLeader]![ComDateSelect]));
Code:
Private Sub CmdAppend_Click()
Dim dbsNorthwind As dao.Database
Dim rstAmend As dao.Recordset
Dim qdfAmend As dao.QueryDef
[code]...
I created an unbound text box on a form that automatically pulls the current logged in user by using this:
Private Sub Txtuser_Click()
Me.Txtuser = Environ("Username")
The form grabbs the logged in user with no problems, however, I ultimately want this information to also end up in my table. So the form has three boxes (to keep it simple). The user will type their first name and last name manually on the form which the record source is this "table" where their name goes to the table last name =Field 1 and first name=Field 2 respectively. I want the unbound box from the form to place the logged in user in Field 3 for the current record.
I have a table, with a related value in another table. E.g. A Items table with a batch value from another table.
I have a form to enter how many of these items has been used and from which batch number they belong.
The batch number is from a dropdown, and batches can be finished(exhausted) and marked such in the table so they no more show in the dropdown.
All this works fine, until, I go back to a entry which was from a batch that has been finished. The combobox is empty although the (Already finished) batch number is mentioned in the table. This is perfectly normal as my query for the combobox is :
Code:
SELECT ItemBatch.ItemId, ItemBatch.ItemBatchNumber, ItemBatch.Finished, ItemBatch.ItemName
FROM ItemBatch
WHERE (((ItemBatch.Finished)=False)
AND ((ItemBatch.ItemName)=[Forms]![ItemMasterForm]![ItemDataSheet].[Form]![ItemName]));
What I want is to show the current batch number as well. I tried to make this query get the current value, but wasn't successful. I tried to make a calculated field based on the dropdown and show its value.
Is there any way I can show the batch number in the datasheet? I have to use a datasheet and not a form, because there will be many sub records for the main form, and having a form will be very uneasy.
I have a query run that gives me a list of records that I view on a continuos form. What I want is to press a button and run a macro/Append Query to add a Single Summary record to another table.
For example my query spits out this data
Part # Quantity Serial Number
GO2 1 123
GO2 2 456
GO2 2 789
What I'm looking to get is
Part Number Total Quantity Serial Number 1 Serial Number 2 ..
GO2 5 123 456
I'm stuck on a couple of things.
1. Getting a new single row to append.
2. Getting Serial Numbers from several records to save on to a single record.
I need a way to dynamically store a particular value in "field_2" of the CURRENT record depending on whether or not the value of "field_1" of the CURRENT record is identical to the value of "field_1" of the PREVIOUS record within the same table. The table is sorted on "field_1".
So, if the value of "field_1" in the CURRENT record is "ABC" and the value of "field_1" in the PREVIOUS record is also "ABC", then store a value of "PPP" in "field_2" of the current record. IF on the other hand, the value of "field_1" in the CURRENT record is "ABC" and the value of "field_1" in the PREVIOUS record is "XYZ", then store a value of "WWW" in "field_2" of the current record.
I have a report that will use these results to count only the number of records that have a "WWW" in "field_2".
Is this doable, maybe in a query somehow?
I should add that whatever the solution, it needs to be compatible with Access 2000.
I have two forms both with separate tables
(1) Register and
(2) Payments.
One of the common denominators between them is the URN which is auto-populated as it is an auto number field. My issue is that when I want to add a new record to the payments table using the forms (I can get to the payments form via the register form), I want to be able to identify the record that I am currently viewing within the register and auto populate the URN field with the same number. This is what I have done so far,
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub AttachPaymentDetails()
Call PerformInsert("tblFinancialBudget", "frmFinancialBudget")
End Sub
[code]....
I'm trying to make a form that shows what the last record was next to the empty space where you enter a new record.
This is so the user knows that what they are entering is roughly in line with what has come before.
So for example if I was recording temperature every May, I would like a form that has a field called temperature and next to that field I would like to see last year's temperature.
Records:
Date | Temp
2014 | 20.5
2013 | 18.5
2012 | 19.0
2011 | 22.7
2010 | 15.2
So when I enter the record for 2015 I have a box that says: Temp and next to that box is "Last year was 20.5" or something like that.
I'm struggling with a query to evaluate current and prior record data. I have a query producing 5000 records. I need to group records by Case ID and compare current date record to previous date record to determine if a team and worker name has changed during the year. I need to count how many times a cases is transferred to and out of a particular team from the beggining of the year. i.e., On 1/1/2014-Team1 has an inventory of 500 cases.
During the month 25 cases are transferred into Team1 and 15 cases are transferred out of Team1. So on 2/1/2014 Team1 begins with an inventory of 510 cases. Throughout the year cases come and go from and to Team1 each month so need to figure out how to create a query to count each change. See attachment displaying how the data is listed and how I invision it to work with the In/out column counts.
Specifically, at the begginig of the year (1/1/14) for case ID 1003 you can see it belongs to Mary in Team1 for January and February. Then in March the case is transferred out and went to Joe in Team 3. So for Mary a "-1" is recorded as a negative count for that Case ID. If later in the year the case is transferred back to Mary a "+1" would be recorded. Respectively evaluated for each of the 5000 records to get a total count for each of the teams by Case ID throughout the year.
I've started with DLookup, tried comparing current month to previous month using DMax. It works as long as I only select one case ID used in a separate query but if I use the whole subset (5000 records) it fails. I can't figure out how to group each set of case IDs and then apply the query.
My attempted query: DLookUp("[Team]","[Team_qry]","[Team_qry]![Date]=#" & CStr(DMax("[Date]","[Team_qry]","[Team_qry]![Date] <#" & CStr([Date]) & "#")) & "#")
In my query, i want to automatically display the value of another field from the previous record in a field in my current record. i.e.
Name Value Previous
Record 1 1
Record 2 2 1
Record 3 7 2
Record 4 1 7
Is it possible to create some kind of simple expression to refer to data in another record?
Cheers,
Ben
