Morning everyone
I have made up a database to record generations of birds; along with others I have the following fields:
Ring number (primary key)
Sex
Year
Colour
Data entry via a form view.
For new entries I pick up from a combo box the parents, what I need to do now is create a relationship between 1, 3&4 and 2, 5&6 so that the data will automatically slot in the relevant fields.
1Parent Cock
2Parent Hen
3Grand Parent Cock C/S
4Grand Parent Hen C/S
5Grand Parent Cock H/S
6Grand Parent Hen H/S
would I do it via a query.’ And would one cover relevant generations
Thanks for any help

Hi there,
I have a table called Cars and a table called Rent
In Cars i have Car ID (Autonumber and primary Key) and Price Per Day
In Rent I have Rent ID, Car ID and Price Per day
The Car ID in Rent is a lookup from the Cars table, but is it possible to make it so that when i enter the Car ID in the Rent table, it automatically fills in the Price per day field for me?
Sorry if something like this has already been posted, i didnt know what this is called so didnt know what to look for.
Thanks
Chris
Hi All,
I'm sure this must be fairly straight forward but I've been going around in circles trying to solve it in VBA without success.
I want the value of a field (Field C) on a form to be automatically entered depending on the value of two other fields (Fields A & B).
e.g.
If Field A is Null and Field B is Null then Field C is Null
If Field A is not Null and Field B is Null then Field C = "YES"
If Field A is not Null and Field B is not Null then Field C = "NO"
Please, put me out of my agony!!

I am trying to create an Access application where income recognition is automatically calculated and stored at the end of the month based on established parameters. How can this be done? Does it require VBA programming?
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy database tracks individuals qualifications. These qualifying scores relate to Unqualified, Expert, Advanced etc. What I want to do is add a entry into my roster table which will have the qualification score.
I then want to have the score and actual qualification (Advanced, Expert, etc) in a Report.
The qualification type is a range (less then 30, 31-40, 41-50), and I think that I will need a BETWEEN statement. What I am not sure of is how to put this together to make it equate the number with the equivalent word in a report.
Thanks

Is it possible to ensure that if a particular field has a specific value, ie, 'yes' then the reaminaing fields on the page are automatically set to 'no' by default?
If No is selected in the field in question then this would subsequently allow the other fields to be set to any value.
Thanks in anticipation :)
How to design a Query that will add a specific date to a Table every month?
In my case, I would like to add / append new record entries on the first day of each month - for example.
Do I have to start with a table that has ALL the future dates required, or is there any other solution?
Hello,
I have a quick question on how to enter the current date in a record automatically when the record is created.
Here is the situation. Say I have a Products table that lists the products that have come into the inventory. There is a field that denotes the day the product was introduced into the inventory. So ideally when the user creates a new record for the product, I would like this field to be populated automatically with the actual date that this filed was created by the user. Note that in future the user may edit the product (i.e other fields in this record), but the entry_date field should not be altered from what it was the first time is was created.
Is there a way I can do this? Any help much appreciated. thanks.
Hi
I am an amature with databases and a bit rusty too. Can anyone help me with this problem?
basically I want to automatically enter a unique asset code for one table that is based on product and manuafacturer's codes from other tables
e.g. for audio visual eqipment
The first table would be a manufacturers table with the manufacturers code as the primary key e.g. JVC, HTC (hitachi), SHP (sharp) etc
The second table would be a product table with the product code as the primary key e.g. AMP, DVD, LCD (lcd tv) etc.
( i would also have a customer table and an asset repair table)
In my asset table I would like to enter an asset code as the primary key of the type JVC-DVD-001, JVC-DVD-002, HTC-LCD-001 etc by looking up codes from the other tables and then adding the last number.
(Ideally once the manufacturer's code has been selected only the product codes for products made by that manufacturer would be displayed).
(Also it would be ideal if referential integrity could be set up so that the asset code components can only contain valid manufacturer and product keys.)
The asset code cannot be a compound key as I want to have a repair records table in which the asset code is entered as a single field with referential integrity to the asset field in the asset table.
When entering repairs I would like the lookup field to display only the assets belonging to a particular customer.
I have a memo field on a form. I am trying to autopopulate it when entered into. For example: I enter in clients info and then tab to the memo field and it automatically enters date and time. Then later when I go back to that same record to append to the memo field it adds the current date. This way I can go back and see all the dates and times when that person called. Any idea how to do this? Thank you
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a database that contains 13,772 records and each record contains 34 fields. The database is used for historical research purposes. As I am constantly changing the content in one or more fields I would like to be able to have a field that would show the date of any changes that are made to any of the fields in any given record. Additionally I would like to be able to run a query, lets say every six months and extract all the updated records.
View 6 Replies View RelatedHow to create a table that has a recurring entry, based on a start date and a nominal interval period of e.g. one calendar month?
Is it possible to have these entries applied automatically each time so that they appear, as required, when the table is opened?
For example, for the entry of regular payments due per month.
I have a form and was wondering if it was possible to set it so that a user is not able to click the submit [Submitcmd] unless certain text boxes are filled (however SampleOuttxt needs to be able to remain blank).
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am creating a database to house all the information for a box content label. For any given product it could have multiple items that go on the label.
For example:
My_Part_1
1. Part_1
2. Electrical Assembly
3. Instructions
4. Warning Label
I imagine my database being setup as follows:
ID Model# Contents
1 Part_1 Part _1
2 Part_1 Electrical Assembly
3 Part_1 Instructions
4 Part_1 Warning Label
5 Part_2 Part_2
6 Part_2 Electrical Housing
7 Part_2 Housing instructions

I don't mind typing in each item individually and then pressing an "add" button. But I would like it to show everything that is currently on that box content label and be able to delete items out of the label.
Is this possible? What would be the best way to do this?
I have a database that makes use of standing orders. That means that if a client has a standing order to receive products during for example 4 time as year (quartely at the end of the month). to automate the new entry by copying an old entry in the database.
Let's say I have a client where we will have to send a product at the end of June, it will look at a field where the next send date is, and when it reaches 2 weeks for that date, to create a new entry in the database based on that entry. This way, it will pop-up in our open cases and we are aware of it and also will be visible in our report.
I am working on creating an access database for tracking physical assets linked to locations. I need to make a combo box list to show items other than the current location of the asset. Basically I need it to refer to last enery of the user and define the new possible entries. so we have a unique relationship between location and asset. The assets and location will always remain fixed and there is never going to be any addition. I am creating a web form so that it can be uploaded into sharepoint.

I am tying to create a setup application in access. The setup forms are incorporated in the database application.It has to split my database into a FE and BE so that the corresponding files can be placed in thier corresponding files folders automatically.
Iam doing this because the database has to be exported to a number of remote locations every after two weeks.
Apart from using the Database Splitter, Could there be any Ideas on how i can split and link my database through code.
I am using DMax function for my custom autonumber
I just realized that when using this in a multi user environment, I am getting duplications.
This field is not the primary key, and I am using this as a group ID and cannot set it to “no duplications”
My form also has a sub form, and when entering the sub form, the main record gets saved automatically.
First I added the following procedure
Private Sub Form_AfterInsert()
If IsNull(Me.OrderNo) Then
Me. OrderNo = DMax("OrderNo ", "tblOrder") + 1
End If
Private Sub cmdSave_Click()
If IsNull(Me.OrderNo) Then
Me. OrderNo = DMax("OrderNo ", "tblOrder") + 1
End If
However, I then realized the after insert function will add the new autonumber to the form. However, it will not saved it to the table until the main record is saved again (which may not happen)
“DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord” doesn’t seems to be working after the “Form_AfterInsert”
Now I moved the code to the “Form_BeforeUpdate” (still testing)
Does anyone have any experience on this problem?
Thank you

Hi there,I know very little about Access but been asked to find out if this is possible:On a database we have a date field for when subscription is due, is there any way that if a DirectDebit method of payment has been chosen, when the date of renewal is, access will automatically update the year to the next one?Thank you very muchCathy
View 1 Replies View RelatedOur small newspaper needs to create a database of subscribers from which we can print labels in what the post office calls "Walk Sort" order, the order in which the mail carrier hand delivers the mail on his route. The number associated with a particular subscriber is not fixed because if another subscriber is added on that mail carriers route, it may fall between two existing entries. So the Walk Sort field needs to automatically renumber up or down when an entry is added or deleted. I will use that field to sort chronologically and print form feed labels.
I've figured out a way to do this in Excel, but I think Access might be a better program to use for this database. My question is, can Access automatically renumber a Walk Sort field if I add or remove entries? If so, how do I set it up to do that?
P.S. I haven't used Access for quite some time, and I wasn't very proficient with it then. :o
Hello everybody,
I have many front end's (using ACCESS 2007 runtime version) in different terminals. Suppose that from 'terminalA', I am assigning a task to an employee who's using 'terminalB'. The user is already looged on to the program by this time, so I want that 'task' to appear on his terminal without him having to press the 'Refresh' button (that I placed on the form) every time I give him a new task when he's logged on so he could see it. How would I do this?
Thank you very much.
