I have a table in which I use a checkbox for one field that I use on a form. When I run a query on this data I get -1 for yes and 0 for No - is there a way to get this to display Yes or No (I don't want True of False either)...I even tried an update query and if did not seem to work...
View RepliesI agree completely with everyone when it comes to not using lookup fields in tables.But does that extend to Display Control of yes/no tables? What are the problems with setting the Display Control to "Check Box"?

Code:

Me.Remarks = ("Shipping Box/Container")

I have a basic form that includes check boxes. All works well. But on my (Windows 8) machine, the check boxes display as big ugly black squares. If I open the db from any another machine (Windows 7), check boxes display as I'm used to with a nice outline and bluey tinge to the middle if not set! All machines have Access 2013 on them.

I need to add a Yes/No field to a table. I know I can do this in design view. Next I want to loop through the table and set it to Yes if certain fields are null. What I need help with is the VBA looping part and setting the boolean field to Yes if the fields being checked are null.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen a part number is set up in our manufacturing software, the user clicks a check box to mark the part as purchased. I'm creating a similar form and want to have a check box display the same information. The manufacturing database stores the check box as Y when checked and N when not checked.
I tried 2 different ways to add code in the BeforeUpdate but neither is working.
First Example:
if Purchased = "Y" then check295 = True
else checkbox295 = False
Second Example
If Purchased = "Y" then check295 = -1
else checkbox295 = 0
What changes do I need to make to this code to get it to work? Thanks for your help,

I have this subform in a form, i want the field that has a hyperlink (which is called Link) to display a check box once the file path has been pressed, so when each path (Link) is pressed i would like the form to display a check box that would tell the person if that pathfile had been pressed. I would like this to show for each of the path files.
Can anybody help please.
Thanks
Hello,
I need to have a date field auto populated with the current date, when a check box is selected on the same form/table.
I am OK with access but self taught, so treat me like a rookie.
Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.
I have one query (lets call i Q1) and I have two tables with identical structure.
Table 1:
- id
- iddesc
- comment
Table 2
- id
- iddesc
- comment
Table 1 consists of an imported xslx-file. The idea with Table 2 is to use it to edit content. Sometimes only one field is edited in Table 2 and in those cases i need to get the other values from Table 1. Q1 should (but doesnt) generate something like this:
Q1:
- id [always from Table 1]
- iddesc [from Table 2]
- comment [from Table 1]
My question: How do i, in a query, check if data exists in a field in Table 2 and if it does, add data from that field and not from Table 1?
I'm pretty new to Access, so please overlook any stupid questions :)
I have a data entry form that has one field that cannot be a duplicate. So, in the table I have it Indexed with No duplicates.
The problem is that the form doesn't notify the user that they have entered duplicate information until they close the form. So the 10 minutes they spent filling it out is wasted.
So, after consulting various posts, I did a BeforeUpdate event with the following code:
(the field that must be unique is called "LS Number", in the form "Q and D" based on the table "Q and D Database")
Private Sub LS_Number_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
On Error GoTo LS_Number_BeforeUpdate_Err
If (DLookup("[LS Number]", "Q and D Database", "[LS Number]=Forms![Q and D]![LS Number]")) Then
MsgBox "The LS Number you entered already exists. Enter a unique LS Number", vbInformation, "Duplicate LS Number"
End If
LS_Number_BeforeUpdate_Exit:
Exit Sub
LS_Number_BeforeUpdate_Err:
MsgBox Error$
Resume LS_Number_BeforeUpdate_Exit
End Sub
When I test this by entering a duplicate LS Number, it gives me the error "Type Mismatch." Unfortunately, I have no idea what this means, nor do I know how to fix it.
Please help, my head hurts!
I have a data field (status) that is either Graduated, Terminated, or Current. I also have a report that has a check box representing each (such as a check box for graduated and another for Terminated etc).
I am trying to get the report to read the status and check the appropriate box in the report.
I have tried this in the control source of the checkbox
=IIf([status]="terminated";True;False)
but this does not work
I have also tried this on the OnOpen
If [status] = "terminated" then
termcheck = true
else
termcheck = false
end if
end sub
But this does not work either - what am I doing wrong :confused:
I'm certain this question has probably been asked before, but I can't seem to find it!
I have a form field called fldTitle, and want to ensure users write something that is meaningful by evaluating words within the title to a table of keywords (tblKeywords).

Many thanks.
I have an update query that adds a date to a field which works perfectly but I am wondering if I can get it to check if there is a date there already, if so add another field and put the date in that? Here is my code currently:
Private Sub Command33_Click()
Dim t1 As Date
t1 = Date
CurrentDb.Execute "update tblTest set tblTest.Date2 = #" & t1 & "# WHERE ID = " & Forms!frmSwitchBoard.txtID
End Sub
I have a form with a number of fields and sections which change visibility based on the data entered in other fields,
The fields have an "on update" event to check the content of the field and make the appropriate changes,
I've changed this form to be able to edit records instead of "Data Entry" so now I need the checks to occur when the record changes as well as when data is entered,
How best can I achieve this without simply duplicating the code (which seems like a bad idea) into the "On Current" event?
i have multpile yes/no check box i want if i check on one the name of this check box is written on another one.

I have a simple database that I put my execptions in for the day for scanning. Is there a way that my serial field on my forum can check to see if someone already scanned that serial for that day using the "On Lost Focus" event.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have created a user form that contains check boxes for various fields, and on this form, when the box is checked, I get a prompt that the field cannot be updated. I have several other forms that use these same yes/no fields, and I am not having the same problem on these forms. I checked the property sheet row source for the form and I don't see anything wrong with the select statement (that I know of).

I have a table that stores ID,PolicyNumber,NewPolNo fields.It has millions of records. The field NewPolNo is empty. I need vba code that will check the following for each record:
1. If the length of the PolicyNumber is over 14 characters long then store that PolicyNumber value in NewPolNo field.
2. If the length of the PolicyNumber is less than 14 characters long thenagain store that PolicyNumber value in NewPolNo field.
3. But if the length of the policyNumber equals to 14 digits long then check the following:
a) If the last 7 digits are 0's of that PolicyNumber. If yes then store first 7 digits in NewPolNo field.
b) If the last 7 digits are not 0's then store the whole PolicyNumber value in NewPolNo field.
We need to check these conditions for each record of the table.
Trying to use some code to 'Select All' from a 'Check Box Drop Down' Multi Value Field . The table field size is long integer.
When trying to "Select All" the code returns a RTE 3163 "This field is too small to accept the amount of data you attempted to add. Try inserting or pasting less data".
Private Sub cmdSelectAll_Click()
Dim SelVals, i
ReDim SelVals(0 To lkupAssignedTo.ListCount - 1)
For i = 0 To lkupAssignedTo.ListCount - 1
SelVals(i) = lkupAssignedTo.Column(1, i)
Next i
lkupAssignedTo.Value = SelVals
End Sub
Not my code, but just something I have found and trying to adapt. Tried changing the field sizes but no luck. Maybe something to do with declaring variables perhaps??
I have a form (Access 2010) that we use to keep track of client data. When I enter a number equal to 6 or above in one field (Client Rating and this field is actually formatted as text because it could be 6 or 6a, b, c or 7 or 7a, b, c, etc), I want anything =>6 to automatically check a box in another field which is the Watch Indicator box (a yes/no box), how would I do this?
I tried to create an expression like the below on the Watch Indicator check box and it does not work - not sure why - it did not say it was incorrect, I think I may have it in the wrong place?
I used "After Update" on the Yes/No Box
=IIf([R Rating]<=6,Yes,No)
I have over 270,000 records in my database with 4 fields. And for each field I need to make sure they dont go over a certain number of characters for example field1 can't go over 20. Is there a way I can make sure that they don't go over that? When I go to design view and go to the Data Type of each field I change the filed size to 20, but if something is imported into that field that is over 20 characters long will I get a message saying it won't import? Or can I write a query to check the whole field to make sure that nothing is over 20 characters?
