Cannot Disable Source Checking

Oct 14, 2012

Even with autocorrect disabled I still get Expr#: in all my queries when I import them, how can I stop this?

(there are 500 or so queries so must be a bulk method and many of them are based on temp tables created during running so getting all the source tables is not an option)...

I have an unbound form with three tabs. On each tab there is a sub form. Each tab is a search form and each sub is a results returned. I have made everything unbound and set the sub form recordsource and its controls control souce on afterupdate of the main form search criteria. Works fine except for after some use the db decides the sub forms are not unbound and sets the record source and control sources.

Me.PollingPlacesResults.Form.RecordSource = ""
Me!PollingPlacesResults!PollID.ControlSource = ""


but this does not seem to work in actualy removeing the record source and control source.

Checking One Box

Apr 12, 2005

It should be exceedingly simple, but I got mashed potatoes between the ears today.

I make a query looking up for Name+Firstname+Ref number which I display in a tabular form .

Now, I want to use check boxes to select the ones I wants to print. But the thing is, if I add a check box in the main part of the form, it'll be the same box for all records. Not what I want.

So, how to create (add) a column so I can check individual records in the form?.

Thanks

Checking Field For A Value

Jan 17, 2006

I've had a search in the threaqds for an answer but cannot find anything specific, plus this one has stumped me.

What I need to do is check if a certain field has a value if another field has a specific value ??!!?

Ok so if Combo Box 1 is set to 1, then Combo box 2 must have a value selected.
If ComboBox 1 is set to 2, then Combo Box 3 must have a value.

for any other value for ComboBox 1 box 2 & 3 do not require a value.

If either of these statements are not correct then a message box should come up

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Checking Date Availability

Jan 5, 2006

Hi all, hope you can help me:



Basically what im trying to do is a database which checks to see if something is available.

The database is a booking system for services. I need the database to check a "booking" table to see if there is a booking on a specific date. If there is, then you cannot make a booking. If there isn't then you can.

In my "booking table" there is a list of dates of bookings. Each booking lasts a week. So if someone wants to make a booking, it cant just check to see if the first day is available, it needs to check for 6 additional days. (i.e. a booking on 01 Jan 2006). If someone wants to make a booking, the database needs to account for a whole week, so the next available booking would be on 07 Jan 2006).

How can this be done in the simplist way?

Thanks all.

Checking To See If A Table Exists.

Dec 12, 2005

I'm running the following line:

dbs.Execute ("DROP TABLE [tbl_No Certs]")


the problem is that sometimes the table doesn't exist... Instead of trapping the error code, is there a way I can check to see if the table exists? If it doesn't I'll simply skip this step of my code and move on.

Thanks!

Checking For Attached File

Jan 25, 2005

I would have thought this was easy, but I keep getting an error.
I have a form with a save button. When the save button is clicked, I want it to check if user has attached an OLE object to a bound object frame. If they have, I'd like a checkbox to be true.
Here's the code I tried:
If Attachment.LpOleObject = 0 Then
Attach.Value = False
Else
Attach.Value = True
End If
This seems so incredibly straight forward and it does work if there is an attachment. If there isn't I get the message that my database can't retrieve the value of this property.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Checking Credit Limit

Apr 5, 2005

Hi, I'm trying to do up a database for a furniture company.
I used Northwinds as a guide and made a similar Orders form.

However, I need another functionality which Northwinds do not seem to have. I want to check whether the currect Order would cause the customer to exceed his credit limit.

WHAT I DID
For this, I made a query to find the amount any single customer owes to date and the amount that he can still borrow(creditlimit-amountowed+amountpaid). I then made a button which launchs this query.

PROBLEM
The problem is I want when i click this button, the query prompts me for CustomerID, which i have to key in again. Then, it launchs the datasheet showing me the credit he would have remaining if this order went through.

It would be better if I do not need to key in his ID again, since it is already on the form when i keyed in the Order.
Further, it would be much better if I could get the button to display APPROVED/REJECT(postive/negative balance) and also display the amount of the remaining credit.

Sorry for the long description. Thanks for reading and please let me know if I missed out any crucial details.

Checking For Duplicate Values

May 10, 2005

Hi,

I have a form in a database for our products (doors). I have a button that duplicates one of these records (all new products are based on standard template records).

When this record is created a new product number is produced by the system which was the number of the original (template) record plus the customer enquiry number.

I want to be able to warn the user if they are trying to save this newly created record with a product number that already exists so that they can alter the number to be unique. It will also warn them if they re-number an existing record to another already existing product number. Since the field is defined as unique, at present the system says absolutely nothing and just doesn't save the newly created record which seems is a touch annoying!

I have tried several things with dlookup, dcount arguments but can't seem to get anything to work.

Hopefully someone here can point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance

John

Problem With Checking For Duplicates

May 15, 2005

I have a table that stores jobs. The primary key field is JOBID which will correspond to company invoice #'s. Because the Invoice #'s are generated by a different system, I don't not have this as an autonumber field, I want to control it programatically when the user enters a value into the JobID textbox.

At first, I was using DCOUNT on the BeforeUpdate event of the form to check if there was already a matching JobID in the table, and if so, cancelling the update.

intInvoiceCheck = DCount("[JobID]", "jobs", "[JobID]=" & Me.JobID)

If intInvoiceCheck > 0 Then
Response = MsgBox("You have entered an Invoice # that is already used." & _
Chr(10) & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & Chr(13) & _
"If this is a secondary invoice considering adding 'a' or 's' to make it unique." & _
Chr(10) & Chr(13) & _
"For example, " & Me.JobID & "a, " & Me.JobID & "s...", vbOKOnly, "Duplicate Invoice")
Me.JobID.SetFocus
Cancel = True
Exit Sub
End If

However, if the user is changing say a jobsite address, they can't, because it checks and sees that intInvoiceCheck = 1 and won't continue.

I tried moving my routine to the BeforeUpate event of the JobID textbox like this (this is not the final code, only what I testing with)

'Check that the entered Invoice Number value is unique
Dim intInvoiceCheck As Integer
Dim Response

intInvoiceCheck = DCount("[JobID]", "jobs", "[JobID]=" & Me.JobID.Value)

If intInvoiceCheck > 0 Then

MsgBox ("Dupe")
Cancel = True
Me.JobID.Undo

End If

However, I getthis long error message saying I have changed the validation rule of the field without first checking to see if it's valid....

I can change the to Me.Undo, which works fine, but I don't want to undo the whole entry, only the JobID and set focus to it, and make the user enter a new one.

Can anyone help me out with this?

Thanks,
Hammy

Checking For Duplicate Numbers

Jan 31, 2006

I have a form in which new equipment is added. I want to be able to check when the ID number is added (first field on the form) that there is not a duplicate ID number. If I wait till the end of the form and save, then Access tells me that there is a duplicate present but by then I have spent time putting in all the rest of the data.

If have added this code in the before update section for the relevent field, but it doesn't seem to work. Can someone please help clarify or suggest an easier way

Dim IntIDCheck as integer
Dim Response

IntIDCheck = DCount("[EquipmentID]","Equipment Inventory","[EquipmentID] =" & Me.EquipmentID)

if IntIDCheck > 0 then
Response = MsgBox ("Duplicate Present")
Me.EquipmentID.SetFocus
Cancel = True
Exit Sub
End if

Thanks

Help Checking For Duplicate Entries

Dec 28, 2006

Hello,

I'm new to using VBA for MS Access. May I enlist your help, Please.

I'm working on a human resources database for a group of employees. I'm trying to automate their login process after they have opened the database so that each employee's privacy is respected. Using an initial form, employees are separated into "New User" or "Returning User". My problem concerns setting up the "New User" in the database.

The New User is directed to form "frm_NU". The form has several unbound fields which are later carried to the table "tbl_Employees". Two of the fields on the form are used to create the EmployeeID. Those are Initials [INI] and Phone Extension [EXT]. The EmployeeID will be used in a filter so that only that employee's information is made available to the user (simulated Privacy).

Because the employees are unfamiliar with MS Access and its cryptic error messages, I need to create a message box which will give a plain English warning when a user attempts to use an existing ID to create a new record. [EmployeeID] is a field in the table. it is set as a key and does not allow duplicates.

When a new user enters his/her initials and phone extension I want the new ID to be compared to the table and if found, a message should appear. This is a preemptive strike to prevent the user from getting to the more cryptic MS Access error message.

I've tried using Dlookup and Dcount to try to pass some meaningful data to the If statement variable VarX to trigger the message box; assuming that Varx should be something other than Null or Empty

Dim EmpID As Variant
Dim VarX As Variant

EmpID = [INI] & [EXT]

VarX = DLookup([EmployeeID], "qry_Employees", [EmployeeID] = [EmpID])

If VarX <Is Not Empty> Then
X = MsgBox("Another record already exists by that name", vbOKOnly)
Else
Y = MsgBox("Passed", vbOKOnly)
End If

I keep getting an error at the DLookup formula or DCount formula saying: Run-time error; 2001 You canceled the previous operation. It also appears that the DLookup never looks up anything nor does DCount count anything even though I'm purposely entering duplicate information which exists in "qry_Employees". I was expecting VarX to be either the duplicate ID or a record number or record count or something.

Any ideas or constructive suggestions?

Thanks,

Goh

Checking Email In Database Already

Jan 5, 2006

I currently setup a form for a survey which works fine and all the information that is gathered is stored in an access 2000 database.

The thing i want to do is to only let the person fill out the form using only 1 email address. So if they try to come back and fill out the form again using the same email address, i want there to be a check on the database to see if the email is there. If it is the form wont submit and it will let the person know. If it's not in the database things will work as planned.

this is what i have so far, but when i submit the form it continues on, but it doesnt check and doesnt email or add to the database like it used too...

Code:<%Dim DSNtemp, Conn, SQLDSNtemp = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=DATABASE LOCATION"Set Conn = server.createobject("adodb.connection")Conn.Open DSNtempemail = Request.Form("email")SQL = "Select * From users Where email = '" & email & "'"Set RS = Conn.Execute(SQL)'HERE WE CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE USERS EMAIL EXISTS, IF IT DOES, WE STOP HEREIf NOT RS.EOF Thenx = "Sorry The Email Address You Entered Already Exist!"Set RS = NothingConn.CloseSet Conn = NOTHINGElse'CONTIUES ON WITH DATBASE INSERTION AND EMAIL TO USER.End If%>

Checking Multiple Columns + Asp

Oct 16, 2006

Question concerning how to check a value against multiple columns in Access with ASP.

Need help converting this to proper ASP and Access syntax

Code:myId = "test"myName = "monkey"SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE (programId1='" & myId & "' OR programId2='" & myId & "') AND (name1='" & myName & "' or name2='" & myName & "')"

is this doable with asp and Access?

If this helps explain it better, the following is how I would call it with PHP & mysql:

Code:$myId = "test";$myName = "monkey";SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE (programId1 = $myId OR programId2 = $myId) AND (name1=$myName OR name2=$myName)

Any help would be appreciated

Forms :: Checking A Value On Subform?

Jul 25, 2014

I am trying to verify that there is no value entered in a text box on a subform before the main form closes. I have tried all manner of combination but continually get the statement that Access can't find the field referred to in your expression. I do have the names of all forms and fields correct.

Below are a couple of what I have tried. (SubassemblyFRM is the main form and ItemsSFRM is the subform and Description is the text field I am trying to check.)

Forms![SubassemblyFRM]![ItemsSFRM].Form.Description

Me![SubassembliesSFRM].Form.Description

I am trying to use it in this statement.

If Len(Me![SubassembliesSFRM].Form.Description & vbNullString) = 0 Then

what might be causing this error?
