Can Multiple Users Enter Data At Same Time?
Aug 20, 2013I have several forms will be filled out on a daily basis by 50 different people. Does Access have a way of allowing multiple users to fill out the forms at the same time and still track the data? Or is it like Excel and can only be viewed as "Read-Only" once opened by someone else?

Creating Access Database To Enter Data
Aug 17, 2014I am a newbie at Access. I have uploaded an Access 2013 file and an Excel 2013 file to show what I am trying to do.
(I also incorrectly uploaded this question under QUERIES - since marked there as 'Solved")
The Access tables that I have created are meant to mirror the individual fields on the Excel spreadsheet.
On the Excel spreadsheet, I would enter data in the rows as the data becomes available.
The Access file contains the excel fields as tables. Some of the table fields consist of only one field and others have many fields.
I have created Primary Keys in all the tables. But I don't understand the process well at this point in time.
I need to know how to create proper relationships, and then, to create a query or a form to enter new data as it becomes available so that I can keep adding rows of data (query to enter and update data) and subsequently run queries to analyze the data
Need to create the correct relationships and a query that lets me update all the data for new cases, as an individual row (like on an excel spreadsheet) .

Apr 14, 2008hi
i have a flag in the back end of my database, which once ticked by me, should chuck them out of their front ends
it runs off the timer of the opening form and looks like thisL
Sub EveryoneGetOut()
Const MINUTESLEFT As Integer = 10
If booQuitFlagTicked Then
If Now() > dtQuitTime Then
AuditTrack "kicked someone out", "main form timer"
Application.Quit
Else
If (dtQuitTime - Now()) * 24 * 60 < MINUTESLEFT Then
'MsgBox "database to close in next " & 1 + Int((dtQuitTime - Now()) * 24 * 60) & " minutes for repairs/upgrades"
UpdateStatus "database to close in next " & Int((dtQuitTime - Now()) * 24 * 60) & " minutes for repairs/upgrades"
End If
End If
Else
'Debug.Print "no kicking done " & Now()
End If
End Sub
two things are going wrong:-
1) i have one user that it keeps trying to kick out (i see it keep loggin it in the audit tracker) but he never gets kicked out
2) i have another user that doesn't even get a mention as trying to kick out, but they're in it. IT told me so from looking at the network locks (and my audit trail knows they logged in earlier)
i'm a bit puzzled, how can the application.quit line run without making someone quit?
and as for the other user that it doesn't even try to kick out, i'm really really puzzled!

Dear Smart People,
Oct 11, 2005I have a form with a textbox and a button. When the user enters in a number range, I need records to show up for only dates that are in-between and/or equal to the numbers typed in the textbox.
For example when the user types in 4-9, and pushes the button, a display of records will be displayed for only 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 (if there are such records). The numbers are contained in a NUMBER field of a larger table.
This seems to be a tough question, and I've done days of research on it and can't find an answer.

View 5 Replies View RelatedOne Db, Three Data Entry People
May 7, 2006Hi all
I have made a quick db with one table and its needs to be used to enter records and updates to records from three people at the same time. These people are going to be sitting at three networked terminals and entering data to the same db at the same time. I know about splitting my db but will this allow for these people to add and change data at the same time? Should I save the backend to one computer and have copies of the data entry form on all the computers looking at the backend? Or should I have multiple forms in the same location and then each computer open the differnt forms located on one of the networked puters?
Many-Many Form Multiple People To One Project
Mar 14, 2007Hello,
I have done some reading in the forums and tutorial site and thanks to the help of many members here I am learning lots thanks!
My question of the day (Hour :) ) is I have a
ProjectTbl
ProjectID *Defined by user*
Project.StartDate
Project.EndDate
PersonTbl
PersonID *Autonumber*
Person.LastName
Person.FirstName
I have built a form which I can add multiple people to one project but when I look in the table only the person who the relationship was linked to gets the subtable.
Then I researched a Many-Many relationship and this solved that issue, now I can put multiple people on a project and multiple projects on people.
PersonProjectTBL
PersonProjectID *Autonumber*
PersonID
ProjectID
However how do I now make a form where I select a project and associate more then one person with this project?
I think I need to somehow increment the PersonProjectTBL and add to it as I go.
The layout I would like to have is:
Combobox 1: Selects the Project (After Select use a (queary ??)) to load in
Combobox 2 and 3 with people.
Combobox 2: Select a person to load into project.
Combobox 3: Select a second person to load into project.
I dont expect a full answer a link or multiple links is very appriciated, even a search topic of what to look for.
Thank you for your time,

Assigning People (orders) From A List
May 7, 2005Dear All,
Can anyone help me with a problem I have with this database.
I want to be able to assign members (Contacts) of companies (Company) to training courses.
I just do not know how to do it. Contacts will need to be able to be assigned to many courses and many different contacts can go on the same course. I think it can be treated as picking inventory items from a list to make up an order, but I cannot get my head around it.
What I want to be able to do is to go through the courses button, double click on the course ID field to get to the course information screen. (I have already set this up) I want to be able to choose a course and select a member of the company to go on the course by using a yes/no box.
I have set up a course attendance table but do I need a query or something to link contacts of the company to the courses table. Is there a problem with my relationships?
zip file attached.
As someone new to access, this is hopefully easy, I just don’t have the know how. Please any help would be excellent and id be very grateful.
Thanks. Please help.
Stop People Printing Forms
Mar 22, 2006Hi all,
I have a form that i use for data input, I have limited all of the menu's how ever the print option is still available. This leads to muppet users printing out the form and using it.
There is a print button on the form that prints a report out that lays out the form into a useable item.
So the question is... How can I stop people being able to print out the form?
Thanks in advance

People's Names With Special Characters
Jul 31, 2006My search has been unsuccessful due to the search function refusing to play nicely with me and the fact that it's mixing up the problems with using special characters with field names, which isn't what I want.
My problem is I have comboboxes that looks up people's name and has a NotInLIst event to allow addition of new person. It uses split function and concentating query to keep data normalized while displaying the full name.
Access trips over, very hard, whenever there is a name that uses special character, which for obvious reasons, causes confusion. Example:
Mike O'Leary
Thomas O'Calloway
Janet Smith-Johnson
Mary-Ann Johnson
Can anyone point me to a snippet I could use to trap for those names and help Access deal with it accordingly?
Thanks in advance.
Report People With Same Flight Pattern
Sep 26, 2004I have a database which has a contact table and a flight table joined in a one to many relationship. Each contact may more than 1 flight and I want to be able to report on people that have exactly the same flight pattern. For example if 2 contacts have flight records FlightID 1, 4, & 10 I want them to be grouped together.
I have tried a number of things including a cross tab query to end up with the contactID and then a string of their flight IDs but as there are over 200 possible flights, the string appears as 1,,,,,,,,3,,,,,,,,,,,,,5,,,,,,,,,,,,6,,,,, etc and when I try to group on this it doesn't seem to work. This seems a very messy way of doing it and I'm sure there must be a much easier way!

Forms :: Adding People To A Record
May 3, 2013I am building a database for running a shoot. I want to be able to add Firers, Beaters and Picker Ups to each day. All of those people are held in a [Contacts] form and have a checkbox to designate them as Shooters, Beaters or Picker Ups or a combination of them
I have a form where I can create the shoot date and timings etc. Now I want to add people to the form.
My idea is to have a seperate form with a list of all the Shoot Dates, on the same form will be three more lists showing Shoot Date and ID, List of all Guns, List of All Beaters, List of all Picker Ups in the Database.
You would then select the shoot date from the first list which would highlight, then go each of the other three lists and select a checkbox next to each person that you wanted to attend that day.
I know what I want to do but dont know how to do it!
I have attached a picture....
Ideas?? 1 Refernce Number For A Group Of People.
Feb 15, 2006Hi,
I've been using excel to keep record uptodate, but i've got more than 300 people to keep track of, so using excel can limit my db.
i'm new to access, wondering if I can get you advice:
Senario:
A community temple, which i'm a member of, spend alot of time loggin who is donating and how much, with pen and paper - then update the excel spreadsheet i've done for them, don't ask me why they do it, its sort of a tradition. Evenone pays about £5 per family, 1 pound for each person.
I was thinking if each familly had a reference number, everytime they donate, they'd give there reference number and the database automatically updates with new records.
So if Mr simpson , ref 69, pays £6, the database adds 6 new records; Granpa, Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie.
how difficult is this to do?
whats best way to design the tables?
Any help is much appreciated.
Printing Letters To Specific People Through Access
Feb 23, 2005Dear All:
I have created a from containing names and address. On This form I have a checkbox called "MailLetter" and a command button called "Sendletter".
I place a check in the box corresponding to specific people, then using a command button a letter is printed to ONLY THOSE WHO ARE CHECKED.
The letter is a Word document that resides on the desktop.
Here is the code behind a command button to print. Not sure if it is correct:
Private Sub Command2600_Click()
Dim WordObj
Set WordObj = CreateObject("Word.Application")
WordObj.Visible = True
WordObj.documents.Open "C:Documents and SettingsUserDesktopLetter.doc"
End Sub
I assume this can be done through some sort of mail merge?
Thanking in advance.
Regards,
Dion
