PS: I send a photo about my question.
I have a database with a Source Table related to a Product table in a Master/Child relationship. The source table has a SourceID field as the primary key and a SourceName field. The Product table has a SourceID field as a foreign key and is related in a many to one relationship to the Source table (the source table is the one and the Product table is the many).
I have a form used to update the Product table. The form includes Combo Box controls for both the SourceName field (which fills in a Source field in the Source field in the Product table) from the Source table and the SourceID field from the Source table (which fills in the SourceID field in the Product table). I need to know how to automatically fill in the SourceID control based on the selection made in the SourceName control.
I would also like to know how to automatically open a form to update the Source table if I enter a SourceName in the Product.SourceName Combo Box that isn't already in the Source table.
If you can help me, please send your replies to james.ballotti@gmail.com
thank you
Greetings,
I'm trying to create an attendance form for my school. I have an Attendance Form already that has the following information:
Student Name
Date of Attendance
Attendance Code
What I would like it to do is, automatically populate the date for all the students enrolled in the class. So if the Math class has 5 students, the form would automatically have all five students with March 28, 2006 and the next day have March 29, 2006 and so forth.
Any suggestions on how to go about achieving this task?
Many thanks in advance!

I am trying to automatically update one table to another each time a new record is added to my form, I have tried using the Update and the Append Query is there another way to do this without using code?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi all!
I was wondering if you guys can help me out with this one:
I would like to have data auto-inserted from a particular colum in table 'x' in to a defined column in table 'y'. similary, I'd like to achieve auto-updation of this data as well as deletion. Can anyone please provide some guidelines?
A little more detail :
I have a column "Client ID" in the table client_personal_info, the rows of which I'd like to have updated in the "Client ID" column in the client_business_detail table.
So if say, ClientID_1 is a row that has been added by the user, I'd like to have it auto-inserted in the client ID column in the client_business_detail table
thanks in advance for your help

Could someone please shed some light on any methods on a way to update fields automatically in different tables but with the same field name when data is entered into one of the fields in any table?
Thanks
I am building this little project for work, and came up with this problem.
It's basically a database of the works in the workshop.
Each car comes in, the service advisor adds a new job in to the database.
And at the other end of the workshop, ppl can see it on the screen.
What I have managed to do now is that if someone modified any details of the existing jobs, it will be automatically updated on the other computer.
(ie, computer 2 has a form opened and showing all the current records in a continuous form view, computer 1 modified 1 record, then a couple seconds later, the form will update itself with the new data on computer 2)
The problem now is, if computer 1 ADDs a new record, it will not show up/auto update on computer 2's form, until I close the form and reopen it again.
Now I have no knowledge in VB and have no idea on how it work together with Access. I do however has some skills in other programming language like Java and C, so learning shouldn't be a problem if that has to be done through VB.
Any suggestion?
i have a complete access database with forms and queries and reports.
the only problem i am facing is that when i create a new report it only takes the data already entered.
if i modify or change a record in the form or table the report doesn't update the modifed data it stays as it is before and i have to re-create a new report.
is there any way to deal with this and make the same report auto refresh the data modified or no ?
Hello,
I have added this to my database but dont see how it would be used. I have a shortcut people use to access the database which ties in my workgroup file infomation so that they can open it.
Now when I send the MDE file to people they get the "dont have permission" typical response.
Now if people are goin to use the shortcut to the either my .mdb or .mde then couldnt I just make adjustments to those and then replace the file on the shared network?
Am I missing something or not seeing how this would be useful or needed?
Thanks for any insight.
I was looking at Bob Larson's utility posted here (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=111132) and I have a question. Maybe I'm being dense (I probably am) but the loading page on my form looks like this:

I was just wondering if Bob (or someone else) can tell me what the difference is between the first and third options on this page?
Hi after I searched the forum for a solution similar to my problem I did not find anything that worked.
I have a form that it is used for hiring DVDs.
There are fields among others like customer_id, copy_id and a hired field wich is true or false.
I also have a submit button which saves the record before you finish. I would like to make the hired field for this record updated to value "true" when I click the submit button.
Hi all
I've followed the instructions on this post:
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=85898&highlight=updating+field
But, unfortunately doesn't seem to be working for me.
I added the equivalant field to 'Hired' after I had previously made tables etc and started added code to forms etc.
When I type Me. a list of options available to type in appear, and 'Confirm' (my equivalant to Hired) does not appear, yet all of the other field names in the form associated to this table DO appear. Does anyone know how to get around this?
I've also set my field to be "Yes/No" - does this mean that the code is:
Me.Confirm = True
OR
Me.Confirm = -1
?
Many thanks
Hi.
I am new in using Access, so forgive me if the solution for my problem is easy.
I wrote for customers a little program, which receives data via RS-232 serial port and then place readed data into MS Access database. After i put the data into field in table (database, table and field are set in my program), there is some kind of script that continue the process of data manipulation.
The problem is, that customers want to activate that script automatically, when i place data in the field. So, i made a form, which contains bound control to this field. Every 2 seconds i am refreshing this form, so when i change the data in the table field, i can see the change in the form control. Now, how can i make the OnChange event to work, when the data changes? I tried to do it, but nothing happens, except if i am writing from the keyboard something directly in the form.
Can this be done and if, how must i do it, so when a new data arrives to run automatically the client script?
Thank you in advance

However on the form i have created when i type in the license plate number want the work area that is responsible for the vehicle to pop up so i can inspect it.the form also has the different things i would look at but i don't want to continue to change the work area that has the possession of the vehicle or have to look it up every time i have an inspection come due. Any help would be appreciated
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to automatically update a date field in a form record without ever clicking in to that date field, but only because you have altered something else on that individual form record or an embedded, linked subform record? eg1. Staff details record - a) create a record for Bob Smith and 'Last Updated' field automatically inserts date b) amend record to say 'Robert Smith' and 'Last Updated' field changes to show new date, even though you never touched that date field. eg2. Risk register - main form record contains name, details, and 'Last Updated'; embedded subform allows you to add individual records of actions taken for each risk. I want the 'Last Updated' field to update each time I add an action, without amending the 'parent' risk record.
View 10 Replies View RelatedWe keep a backend and a master frontend of a database on a network drive and distributed a .mde version of the frontend to the users who save a copy of it on their hard drive. There is a separate version table on the frontend and backend of the database for version comparsion. Whenever there is change on the master frontend, I shall change the version # on those tables and make a new .mde file on the network.
When user open their own mde frontend, there are scripts to check its version with the master frontend on the network and any mismatch will trigger off the following scripts (on the default form) to replace the old version with a new one from the network.

Dim strFEMaster As String
Dim strFE As String
Dim strMasterLocation As String
Dim strFilePath As String

This process works fine for everyone in Access 2010. However, these scripts appear to have conflicts with Win 7 when users upgraded to the O/S. They keep getting database unstable error message and the process fails to work. Whether we can change the scripts to make them compatible with Win 7?
In this table I have two fields Seats Available and Seats Remaining
When I register a student to a Course in the Courses table I would like the corresponding Seats Remaining field for that course to decrease automatically.
I can, of course, run a report or a query to see how many are enrolled in the course and then manually update the Seats Remaining field (which is what I currently do), but I would like this process to be automated each time I register a new student.
I have a date field named "date1" and one undound textbox named "txt1".I need each time when i change the value (dates) on "date1" field the txtbox "txt1" to take automatically the end of the current month date.
Ex.
Date1 value is 22/09/14 the txt1 should be 31/09/14
What I have is two tables: Table A has one field (let's call it CustomerID). Table B has multiple fields about customer interactions (date, interaction type, etc.). What I want to do is this: have a form field that autofills the CustomerID field if that customer ID already exists and also allows the user to input a new CustomerID if it is a new customer (ergo updating Table A). The ability to have autofill activated for the subsequent record (e.g.: perform data entry on weekly basis and new customer arrived Monday then returned Wednesday) without saving the database.
I have the two tables connected: the CustomerID as primary key in Table A and it is related to a CustomerID field in Table B. For the autofill criteria I have set up a combo box lookup (Display Control setting, didn't limit to list) for the Table B CustomerID field. I've experimented with referential integrity as it would be a one-to-many relationship but that consistently gives me an error at data entry. I've spent 2-3 hours researching and tooling around and am convinced that it either isn't possible or is a ridiculously easy fix.
I have a query that runs the saved export that exports data to an excel spreadsheet. When I go to run it again, it does not update the spreadsheet with the new data.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a simple login form (really just an audit tracking form) that requires the person to enter in their email address and select an office number from a combo box. Essentially, upon first entry, they will put in their email address and select an office number. When they return to the database and put in their email, it will automatically populate the combo box.
I need the text box (EmailLogin) to do 3 things: update an EmailLogin field on a table called EmailLogin (which I already have it set to do), search a field called EMail in a table called Staff, and update a combo box (cboOfficeNumb) below it if it matches an entry from EMail on the Staff table with the field OfficeNumb.
I have the cboOfficeNumb updating the OfficeNumb field on both EmailLogin and Staff tables.I am unsure of how to use a Query to perform the search and use DLookup for the update of the cboOfficeNumb.I am okay with modifying the tables to remove OfficeNumb from the EmailLogin table, as it is really just tertiary.
GOAL: select the IC number from the combo box and have 5 text boxes auto fill.
I have a table made for the IC number drop down. The columns represent the fields that need to be auto filled.
Making some kind of query to link the combo box entry to the text boxes? Some VBA where the control source is equal to my query? I have tried changing the text box control source to equal columns from my drop down but that did not work.
NOTE: the blue font in the first image represents the text boxes that need to auto fill when I select the IC number from the drop down. The second image is my table from which my combo box is generated. The acronyms are for the two tests on this form.
