Tables :: Creating A Catalog With Elements That Have Different Fields
Oct 4, 2012I'm creating a catalog that shows all the equipment we use in our company. The problem is that most of these equipment don't have the same properties, or fields. For example, all of them have a code, model, supplier and price.
However, most of them have different properties like size, orientation, or material.My first attempt was using one-to-one tables.
My database is formed by a main table (catalog), a type table (which lists all the types of equipments the table has, e.g. control valves, tanks, field instruments, etc), and smaller tables for each type of equipment (the table for control valves has the size and material field; the table for tanks has connections and orientation field; and the table for field instruments has the fields of dial size and connections).
All of these small tables are connected to the main table using a one-to-one relationship.My question here, any better way to store and access these type of data.
General :: Creating A Product Catalog In Access 2007?
Mar 13, 2013creating a product catalog over a range of products.
I want to create a catalog where each page of the catalog contains a product, describing; Performance data, pictures of the product, technical drawings, and documents on the product e.g.
Also it should be possible to search in the performance data, so that one or more parameter from all products can be compared used for benchmarking the products to each other.
I am using the 2007 version, because it's the one that I have available at the current time. My questions are mostly related to the possibilities of creating such a product in Access 2007, or if I need to upgraded to a newer version or even use another software program?
Seeking Help Creating Catalog Database (text Descriptions >255 Char.)
Nov 9, 2005I am looking to create a catalog database. It is to serve as a finished product warehouse, as well as a product development tool. There are a number of fields, most of which are straight-forward.
One large problem I have is that the product descriptions are roughly 700 characters. Is there a way to have this information entered into Access and stored either in this database or elsewhere?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

How I can go about getting this X and Y data into the InstReclosers table?
...in summary, InstReclosers has device name and section name. InstSections has section name and node name. Nodes has node name and XY coords. Need XY coords for each device in InstReclosers.

Tables :: Pull Field From Main Table And Create A New Table With Date Stamp
Nov 4, 2014I have a make-table query that pulls all the fields from 1 table (MainTable), and creates a new table with a date stamp based apon a form value entered (New Table = MainTableWithDate).
Currently, I setup the query to pull info from the form field like this:
DateField: [Forms]![frmmain]![DateField]
However, when the make-table query is done - all date fields are blank (all other fields are correctly created), and when I look at the new created table (mainTableWIthDate), the typeassigned to the date field is "Binary" (in the form, I've specified LongDate).

General :: Copy Data From Local Access Table To Linked SQL Server Table?
Jan 13, 2014I have an MS Access accdb with linked SQL Server 2012 ODBC tables. I am working on a procedure to copy data from local tables to these linked tables (identical schema). I did a simple
Code:
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO linkedTable SELECT * FROM localTable"

Tables :: Multiple Parents Table Linked To Child Table - Primary Keys
May 28, 2015I have a table for a multiple parents linked to a child table. I need to figure out a way to only allow 1 parent to be coded as primary, 1 as secondary, and then the rest as other... I thought about making Primary/Secondary/Other a primary key. But then I can only have 1 other. I would have to make a finite number of parents that could be entered and I want an infinite number.... My end goal is to have a report that only has a primary and second parent on it, but the rest of the parents still exist in the table...
*Child_ID
Parent_First_Name
*Primary/Secondary/Other

Move Record To New Table After Data Change In Combo Box Value In Original Table.

If A Make-table Query Result Is Null, How To Have A Default Message Appear In Table ?
Jan 21, 2005Hi everybody,
Beginner here needs help !
I'm building a make-table query for which if the result is null (no record correspond to the set of criterias), a default message like "there was no activity during the period" would appear in the table (not a message box...I need the message in the output table). The best I could think of is an IIF function but it doesn't seem to work... Is there any way to do this without using VBA?
Thanks in advance !

what I am trying to do is have a button that will copy that record to a history table then delete it off the the main table.
I cheated by using the wizard to get the code to delete the record but I am having troubles modifying the code to copy that record to the history table. Here is the code below. I have tried to insert code in several places but it just errors out.

Modules & VBA :: Generate Multiple Records In One Table From Single Record In Another Table
Sep 20, 2014I am building a simplified re-order point system - if inventory position drops below a certain level (the yellow level is this case) one or more purchase order lines has to be created in another table.
I have one table with the following field and data:
ItemId Red Yellow Green Multiple Inventory position
0001 10 30 50 5 45
0002 5 40 47 5 23
0003 11 20 30 10 5
I would like to generate new records (in another table) based on the above fields and three records.Basically the end result should look as the following:
ItemId Qty Start inv Aggregated inventory Prioritization
0002 5 23 28 Yellow
0002 5 28 33 Yellow
0002 5 33 38 Yellow
0002 5 38 43 Green
0002 5 43 48 Green
0003 10 5 15 Red
0003 10 15 25 Yellow
0003 10 25 35 Green
The logic is quite simple - if inventory position is less than the yellow value new order lines should be created in multiple qty (based on the multiple field) until the aggregated value (in table 2) is above the green value.The priotization value should be based on the start inv (in tbl 2) compared to the values in red, yellow and green in tbl 1.
Modules & VBA :: Restrict Value In Lookup Field To Only Include Values From Table B Not In Table A?
Feb 2, 2014I have a database that has 2 tables. Table A and Table B. Table A is my primary table. On this table I have 2 fields. The first field is a LOOKUP Field that looks up information from Table B and displays my selection in the field on Table A. Then using DLOOKUP I automatically input the information in the Second Field on Table A based upon the selection from the First Field.
This is working mostly correctly. However, the problem is, when I click on the next record in the table, it automatically changes the Second Field on that record to the same value as the record before it and continues this trend each time I click on another record. This occurs without me making a selection in the first field. If I make a selection in the first field it does change the Second Field to the Correct Value, but then the next Record has the same issue.
How do I go about fixing this so it doesn't change the value with the change of the record. Only change if I change that particular field within that 1 record?is there a way to restrict the Value's in my lookup field to only include the Values from Table B that aren't already in Table A?
