I'm relatively new to this Access thing... and I just finished my first one. Well, not finished, as it doesn't work right! Can someone check it out for me and tell me what I'm doing wrong?
It's a customer database I'm making for my work, and I hope to really impress the boss with it! I have the form created to enter in all the customer info, but tab/enter don't go to the next field... and sometimes all the info will dissapear! Then it will re-appear if I go to enter a new contact!
The file is 560kb, so I can easily email it to anyone who will help. Thanks a million!!!
Hey guys, I'm having two small issues with my database. The first is, I can't get my drop-down to display content on the Form "frmSearch" under "Cast".
And the second, not really a problem, more of an inquiry... on the same form, is there a way to set a default value in the "released before..." and "released after..." of "(enter year - xxxx)" and have that value not interfere with the search feature if it is left as default?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm very new to database creation and an eager to learn about these things. Thank you!

I have attached my code below :
Private Sub Command0_Click() Dim strcPath As String strcPath = "O:QA FilesQC ReportingPending Review" Dim strcNewPath As String
I would like to be able to check if a db is open and if it is to prevent the user from proceeding.
I use the Access 2013 Runtime. I can check if a db is open by trying to open Exclusively, using something like
Code: [URL] ....
But if the db is already open Not exclusively and I try to open it exclusively it does not raise an error and it allows the user to open the db in Read Only mode.
I would like to be able to prevent this, because careless and/or inexperienced users may open several instances of the db.
Of course, if the db is already open exclusively it does not allow you to open it exclusively another time.
I'm trying to create a checklist in my access database that can be assigned to different companies. Is there a way to maintain a blank checklist so that we don't have to recreate it every time we start working with a new company?
My desired output of this is to have a database to allow me to quickly check in and out equipment and personnel using a barcode scanner. I am using access 2013 and started with the asset tracking template downloaded from Microsoft. Where I am hung up right now is adding the personnel check in and out (each member of the team will have a barcode attached to their id) I want to be able to just scan their badge when they show up and again when they leave. At the end I will run a report that shows who was on scene (it is for a search and rescue team) during a certain day or time range.
I have added two new tables one check in and one check out the only fields are firedeptID and CheckIn or CheckOut a date/time field CheckIn and CheckOut Auto populatewith Now(). The first problem is that I think I need to turn off (if possible)the auto creation of a new record every time, when I scan in an ID right now that record gets the time stamp of the last time the new record was created IE.Last week when the last person scanned in and the new record was created. I assume I am going the same type of issue when I start working on checking out the equipment.
I have been trying to come up with a solution for a problem I am having for a while to no avail. We have a backend database that stores various tables full of data. We then have a custom Excel Ribbon that connects to the database and pulls in the different tables depending on the user selection form the ribbon. Everything is working well on that end. The problem I am running into though is that in the development phase of the ribbon and database we had multiple versions and so there are still some people who are using old versions of the ribbon and therefore not connecting properly to the database. Is there some type of code I can add into the database and ribbon where it checks for a specific version to ensure the user is using the most recent version?
Basically, before any type of query is run to connect to the database the ribbon would have some sort of label on it somewhere and the database would check for that label and if it is correct, the code proceeds and if not a message box appears that tells the user they are not using the most current version of the ribbon and exits the sub?
I'm in need a of a check-in/check-out application for my company. We have about 550-600 employees at any given time and our turnover is about 20-30% per year. Our check-in/check-out process requires our employees to personally visit between 30-40 areas in our company (personnel, safety, credentials, parking, insurance, etc) within the first month of employment. This is currently done manually and is a huge drain on labor, especially when check-in sheets are lost, misplaced or, in some cases, forged.
I'm looking to build a database that would be intranet based, password secure (by check-in area) that would allow the new employee to present at a particular check-in, check-out site, complete that portion of the check-in/out process and then allow the person responsible for the check-in/out to enter the status into the database. At any point in the process, I would want to know the status of the person checking in/out (how long they've been checking in/out and what portion of the process have they completed).
Hi I have sendkey "{f7}" on loss focus. this works great as a spell check but then I get the mesage box that spell check is complete. How do I stop this box from occuring?
Does anyone know or have an example of how to use check box's to filter out things in a form. What I want to do here is I have like 5 different locations and I want to be able to choose which of those location, whether it be one or more checked at a time and then have whatever those check boxes are checked to be filtered out.
I have a continious form containing data from the table "tblToernament". On that form there is a combobox containing teams that are stores in the table "tblTeams".
The table looks like this:
ID | TeamName
1 | Team01 2 | Team02 3 | Team03 4 | Team04
When I select, for example, Team02 in the combobox I want that value on, after I selected it from the combo NOT to be in the combobox.

I was working on my project again as usual, which is about transaction of cars coming in and going out (car pool system), So i created a table then a form for this. In the table, i put the option of 'Yes/No'. So, for the form, i want to create a search system which will include a search system.
My Idea:
I want to make a check box, as a search system, so when it is checked and clicked on a command button, it searches for all records with 'Yes'. and if not checked, and clicked on command button, then it searches for all records with 'No'.
Now i did my research, on google and stuff also in the access help but it ddnt help much.
To be honest with you guys, i dont know much of visual basic writing, but i do understand most of it. ( you know, when you understand one language but can speak it?? same way :o ).
So i would request some one to give me instructions on this one. It would really be appriciated.
Do check boxes have to be bound to be able to save them in your forms? In other words, when you check the box and click save, does the check box have to be bound so that the check mark can be saved? Thanks.
I want to connect a single check box to a record of check boxes, so that when it is on yes (checked) all the other boxes are yes (checked) automatically. How do I go about doing this? Is there an expression I can build for it? :confused:
I know there is probably a simple answer to this question, but im wondering if there is a way to make the value of a "true" checkbox anything but -1. i'd like the checked box to display a positive 1 in the corresponding table, so that they may be added up for a further query.....
i am working with IIF statements now with no luck,
Please tell me how i can fix it, and if there is a simple way of changing the value to a positive number, or even to a letter or word!
I have a access form that when a user clicks a button it runs a report for that particular record. When the user clicks this button to run the report I would like to have a check box or whatever else you recommend on the form that would become checked once the user runs this report so that they will know that they have already ran a report for this record. If they try to run it again a msg box will appear letting them know that a report has already been created but if they want they can run it again. Any Ideas or HELP?????

Hi In my tables I have set a field to Yes/No and the format to be True/False. When I activate the table it shows the field as a checkbox, however when I create a List Box on a form to that table it displays the fields as True/False, how can I get the list box to also display the field as a checkbox.
Hi. I recently started using Access 2003 to create a contact management database. One of the section is titled "Areas of Interest' with nine categories of nine respective check boxes. I made the nine check boxes and when I click one all seems fine. However when I move onto the next person in the database, the check box clicked on the previous contact is already clicked and continues to be so far every other client. How do I make the check box selection distinct per contact?
Thanks. My apologies if the answer is easy and obvious. Take care.
Employees enters free tekst description of goods in a tekstfield. The question have been asked to query that database to check if they fill in the free tekstformat correctly. I understand that this is virtually impossible but we were thinking abount BLANCS, One character and maybe only values etc etc. In general is there a sysmantic checker or a module or link (Im thinking outload now, a symantic check) who could guide me with this requirement.
