Auto-fill With Related Fields?

Feb 15, 2006

Is it possible to connect data so that when one field of a record is entered the rest of the fields associated with that first field of the record automatically fill in?

Example: If I were to enter a new contact record name in the name field I want the corresponding fields of address, city, state, zip, phone....etc. to fill in automatically.

Having Some Subform Fields Auto Fill From Mainform Fields

Nov 2, 2005

How can I get some mainform fields' data to be the first entry in a subform? From the mainform, I would like the Head of Household name and date of birth to be carried over to the first entry in the HouseholdMembers subform.

The two forms are tied to separate tables. For each household member I need to be able to enter full legal name, date of birth and some additional pieces of information such as income and source of income.

What I'd like to avoid is making the users enter the Head of Household's name and date of birth twice. Is there a way to carry that information over to the subform?

Thank you, Charlotte

Forms :: Auto Fill Fields From Associated Tables

Sep 24, 2013

I have a data entry form feeding a table named [Group Members] using Access 2010.

It has 4 fields; [Group ID] & [Group Name] derived from tbl.[Groups] and [Member ID] & [Member Name] derived from tbl.[Mail List]. The 'ID' fields are foreign keys from the respective tables.

The 2 'Name' fields have drop down lists for input selection, but my requirement is to cause auto fill of the 'ID' fields when the respective 'Names' are selected.

I had assumed that this simple requirement could be achieved with a suitable control on the form property sheet. It is so simple to do in Excel!!

Auto-Fill Text Fields In Form

Jan 10, 2012

is there a way to have a form set to either auto populate fields based on the FIRST FIELD? For example: if the user type in the STUDY ID, the other fields like (first name, last name etc..) are auto-populated/auto-filled? and if the STUDY ID is new and not in the table, then the users simply fill in all the fields/complete the form and save? And I would also like a message box to show when I am typing the STUDY ID that would say something like: this person is on the system already. Click YES for this person and NO to add the user?...

[Data Access Page] Auto Fill Fields

Dec 17, 2007

Is there an easy way in Data access pages to do like you do in forms as far as using a dropdown list and when you choose a name/acct#/rec# or whatever, that the rest of the fields are automatically updated to match? Just curious.

If you need an example, I can provide one.... basically, I'm trying to get a data-acess-page to act like a form so someone without access can do a simple search.

General :: Auto Fill Multiple Fields In A Form From 2 Tables

Apr 3, 2015

I have two tables, "Summary" and 'POC Information". In the "POC Information Table I have all my Contacts Information (Name, Title, Phone, Email, etc...) and I am trying to assign 2 POCs to each of my multiple projects located in the "Summary" Table. I am using a Form called "JCIDS Tracker Input Form" as the link. So far I am able to assign one POC by a combo box that lists "Full Name", then it autofills the other information...Phone Number, Email, etc... The problem come into being when I want to assign a second POC to the same Project...I can assign a name, but it won't correctly autofill the rest of the information...it just autofills in the information from the first POC that was selected.

Forms :: Matching ID Fields To Auto Fill Form Field

Aug 30, 2013

The table ProductInfo has an ItemID, and its corresponding Quantity.The table Orders has a PO column, an Item# column, a OrderQuantity column, and the column Item#CurrentStock which holds the Quantity of the selected item, for 3 items.I have created a form that has a ComboBox populated with the ItemID's from ProductInfo, that when selected populate the corresponding Item# in the Orders table.

I would love if the Quantity(stock) from ProductInfo would automatically fill the Item#CurrentStock field on the form when the ItemID is selected from the ComboBox.But all of the fields only relate to Item# from the first ComboBox!?!?I have tried =dlookup,

Tables :: Auto-Fill Fields Based On Linked Table (Access 2007)

Jan 6, 2015

I understand right off the bat if you're reaction is "don't duplicate data!!" -- mine would be too (don't fret, I know my normalization).

I've linked a table in my db to my Global Address Book in Outlook 2007 and, upon entering an employee number as a new record, would like to verify that the number entered is listed in the GAL and then pull in the associated name and location info.

The key is that I don't want this info to rely on the GAL going forward. For example, if an employee leaves or is no longer listed in the GAL, I don't want to lose the employee info (past data is needed for audit purposes). Note: I will be creating a report later to show if there are discrepancies between the GAL and my table, but that's another story...

So, what would be the best auto-fill options in Access 2007?

Auto Fill

Jun 8, 2005

I've tried googling this, but I can't find anything helpful. I have five columns in my 'Main' table. In each row, column B, C & D are solely dependant on column A. And column E is completely independant of all of them. I want to be able to select a choice in column A using a drop-down menu (which I know how to do) and have columns B, C, & D automatically fill themselves in (which I don't know how to do). Column E I would just manually enter.

How do I get columns B, C, & D to automatically fill themselves in my 'Main' table. I would select a value from a drop-down menu in column A and want everything else to fill in. The values for A,B,C,& D are all in seperate tables with an ID and linked to their respective fields in the 'Main' table. Appreciate any help.

Auto Fill

Jan 17, 2008

I am looking to find the experssion that will allow me to put a date in a query under date completed and have it fill another field for schedule.

I know that in Excel it would be =sum(A1 +90 ) and this will give a date 90 days after the date inputed into field A1 and so on down the column. and it would auto fill the next column for me

Auto Fill Problem

Mar 9, 2006

Hi,

I am trying to write a database that has one table for companies and another for the services they hire.

The objective is to end up with a managable excel sheet that imoprt into an accountancy package. (Using Acess to eliminate several sheets in current procedure and also free up 1.5 days PCM data entry time).

I have set an auto look up that will autofill the required fields into the form ( =MYQUERY.column(1) ). This works fine and does what i need it to. My problem is that it does not write back to the table so I can not run an outputto command.

I do not know of any other way to produce the autofill to try another way. I have looked at the setup and can not find any problems.

Does anyone have any ideas to help me out?

craig@lenihan.me.uk

Thanks

I'm not familiar with VB coding and the function isn't working. If someone out there can help me, I'd really appreciate it.

I am a new access user and need some help. I have created an auto fill query to fill in information on a sales order table from my customer table based on CustomerID.

I have also created a sales order form. When I enter the customer ID in the form the rest of the data does not fill in. Actually nothing happens.

Auto Fill In A Subform?

Aug 9, 2005

Here is what I have so far. Table 1 has employee info. Table 2 is for the courses that employees take. Table 3 is a listing of available training courses. What I have done is created a form with all the employee info and linked it to table 2 by ss #'s. What I am wondering is if I can create a field, lets say course #, in table 2 and table 3. That way when I input the course number into the subform, then the corresponding info from table 3 is inserted, ie course name and course hours. Any suggestions or help would be great.
