Check For Existing Record Before Opening

Sep 20, 2006

Hi.

I have 2 forms, with a "PNID" field as the link between the 2.
In the 2nd form, the PNID field allows no duplicates. I have a button on the first form to open the 2nd form to add a record.

I need some code to put on the button on the 1st form to check whether a PNID record exists on the 2nd form before opening it.......does this make sense?
What is happening is that I click on the button, try and add a record, then it tells me one exists and I cannot add a duplicate...

I have looked at the threads, and have tried using DCount? Is this correct?

Thanks

Frank.

Opening An Existing Project In Access 2003

Aug 14, 2007

Hopefully this is pretty simple.

Have an existing app. When I open it from within Access the app seems to go into some runtime mode ... shows a splash screen, menus, etc.

Okay how do I go into design mode so I can modify it ?

Yeap am a complete newbie with Access and haven't touch since the Office 97 version :o:eek:

Not sure if you are meant to ask multi questions in one thread, or create a thread for each one. Will created a new thread for my other question, so if one of the Mods could point out the correct way of doing this would be appreciated.

Queries :: Append Query To Check For Existing Values And Add Only Those Not Present

Oct 23, 2013

I have a database used to manage teaching assignments (which kid is assigned to which teacher so to speak). I have this relationship defined through three tables, a teacher table, a student table, both with unique ID's. The third table is used to define the assignment. Also, the kid table has an extra GroupID. The group ID is what is used to define. So in the definition table, Teacher 1 is assigned to Group 1, and so on (though their may be 20 kids in group 1). When a new teacher is added to the teacher table, I need it to add it to the corresponding field in the definition table. The groupID is in the table as an Autonumber so that will populate automatically.

I need to appendTeacherID to tblassignment (TeacherassignmentID) and have only one occurrence of the TeacherID. So, if I have teachers 1-8 listed, each assigned to a group# in the tblassignment, and I add Teacher 9, I need it to add Teacher 9's unique ID to the TeacherassignmentID field without adding 1-8 again. I can't figure out how to "check" for ID's 1-9 and add only those I've added to the teacher list that aren't already assigned to a group.

I've tried a few different SQL queries append/select queries but nothing seems to do what I need it to do....

Queries :: List Of Dates And Records With No Matching Record OR Existing Record With Higher Date

Nov 24, 2014

I've been asked to get some information from my database and I'm a bit stuck.

I have a list of refunds in tbl_main and each one includes a dateReceived. I make a record in either tlk_located, tlk_unableToLocate or tlk_bulk depending on the outcome when we're trying to send the money back to whoever it belongs to. Each table has a time stamp (named locatedTime, unableTime and timestamp respectively) field

My manager wants me to report how many entries were unworked on each day in the year, and what the value of them was. An entry is unworked if there is no entry in either of the 3 tables.

So I need a query that lists a range of dates, and for each date counts the number of entries where tbl_main.dateReceived is <= to that date and either has no record in located,unable or bulk or has a record with a timestamp > than the date. (It has been processed now, but hadn't been on the date we are looking at)

I can manage a query that looks at a certain date that it prompts for on each run:

Code:
SELECT Count(tbl_main.trust2PK) AS CountOftrust2PK, Sum(tbl_main.amountRefunded) AS SumOfamountRefunded
FROM ((tbl_main LEFT JOIN tlk_located ON tbl_main.trust2PK = tlk_located.trust2FK) LEFT JOIN tlk_unableToLocate ON tbl_main.trust2PK = tlk_unableToLocate.trust2FK) LEFT JOIN tlk_bulk ON tbl_main.trust2PK = tlk_bulk.trust2FK
WHERE (((tbl_main.dateReceived)<=[cutoffDate]) AND ((tlk_located.locatedTime) Is Null Or (tlk_located.locatedTime)>[cutOffDate]) AND ((tlk_unableToLocate.unableTime) Is Null Or (tlk_unableToLocate.unableTime)>[cutOffDate]) AND ((tlk_bulk.timeStamp) Is Null Or (tlk_bulk.timeStamp)>[cutOffDate]));

I would like a query that lists all dates in a range, and shows the same information for each day listed.

Code Before Opening Form To Check User's Right

Oct 23, 2005

Hello Gentlemen,

I am planning to give different rights (AllowEdit, ViewOnly…) to the user on accessing forms and reports in a db on a single pc instead of dealing with server as my client have only one pc.

As a present requirement, db would be in one pc only and would be used by 3-4 users. I need each of users to limit their access to some of the forms and reports in the same pc. To get it, what I did is as follows:

Example:

One of my tables called tblEmployees (Back End Table) linked in FE containing following fields:

1.Unumber- Autonumber
2.UNames - Text
3.Pwd- Password
4.F1- Yes/No
5.F2- Yes/No
6.F3- Yes/No

F1, F2….stands for form1, form2…

There is a login menu form. Something like 2 text boxes on the form and opening at the startup. User selects his name from a combo and types his password. If the user is available in the tblEmployees, Access opens main form and store UNumber and UName with time stamp in a local table called “T_CurrUser. If user not available in tblEmployees, it should close or give some msg.

Now, when the Main form opens (after login with correct user and pwd) and user wants to click different command buttons to open the form, I need to write code to check whether the current user have right to open the selected form (check marked to allow opening this form in the table tblEmployees) BEFORE opening it.

If check mark is set to false on F1 in the table tblEmployees, it means he can’t open form1, and a msg should pop up “Not allowed to view”..Something likes that.

1. I don’t know the code I created with simple if then, where to write ? I mean on which event of form ? On open / On Activate or where. Bcz the code should run before form opens and should check the table whether the user have check mark value true or false.

I tried to write the following code but some time it works some time doesn’t. What is wrong with code lines?

On Click of Command Button that opens Form1

Dim USR = DlookUp(“lngEmpId”,”T_CurrUser”) ‘ Local Table emp.

‘To check if Form1 check mark is set to true
If DlookUp(“F1”,”tblEmployees”,”lngEmpId=USR)=True Then
Docmd.OpenForm “Form1”
Else
End If

When another user logs on the same pc (off course, after login out of first user) the local table T_CurrUser record will be replaced with new user. Note that local table T_CurrUser contains always one record. Hopefully I described correctly.

Any idea will be respected.

With kind regards

Compare New Record With Existing

Apr 19, 2005

My database tracks employee training.

I have tblClasses, tblEmployees, and tblRegistrations. I have a registration
form with EmpName and subformClasses, which allows me to register one
employee for several classes at a time.

My registration form has an OK button. I need a message to appear (on btnOK click) before adding a new record to the registrations table that indicates if the employee has already had training for the one or more of the classes selected in the subform. Then the option to "Yes" add the record anyway, or "No" cancel the record.

I have everything working except, I can’t figure out how to do the
comparison with the subform and generate my "Yes/No" option. I’m hoping that one of you wonderful access geniuses will have a relatively simple suggestion for me.

Thanks in advance!

Existing Record Validation

Feb 7, 2005

I have a TSQL procedure written which validates if a record already exists. It returns a 1 or a 0 depending on if it finds a valid record based off a supplied paramater (an application ID in this case, stored as Text(14)).

I want to accomplish the same thing but in a standalone Access DB where I don't have access to SQL stored procedures. Basically, here's what I have:

frmInputNew contains a text box txACAPS. When a user enters in a number in the txtACAPS field, and tabs out, I want an event to run which checks that string against a table. If the string exists within a field in the table, I want to break out and open a new form (which will be a dialog box). If it doesn't exist in the table, I want to end the code and let the user continue entering in data.

I'm not entirely sure how to check a table for a value via VB and return a flag that I can form an IF/ELSE statement from. Any help would be appreciated.

Forms :: Add New Record Or Select Existing

Sep 30, 2014

First Access 2013 form being created. (i may not use proper termonology but trying).

Tables:
tbl_Clients (PK=clientID auto#)-holds details of each client (Lname/Fname/MName/addr/preferences etc)
tbl_Encounters (PK=encounterID auto#)-could have many encounters for each client.
tbl_followup (PK=followupID auto#)-some encounters need followup, some don't, some encounters have many followups.

Have a form linking to tbl_Client, with subform to tbl_encounters (going to create another form for followups-haven't got that far yet). I would like to try to avoid duplicate clients in the tbl_Client, so when the form is opened they could look for client if not there add new. However for the existing client if say the address changed i want them to be able to do that. (i could get rid of dups in a query/report based on matching certain fields etc, however i'd like to avoid it in the first place).

Collate Single Record Report And Existing Pdf

Aug 15, 2007

Hi all. Using Access 2003 I am trying to figure out how to print and collate a report and an existing pdf file that is opened based on a field in the record. I figure that it probably has to do with looping through the records but I am not very good at that.
So I have a form with a sub form that opens records based on a combo box. I then have a report (a checklist sheet) that prints 1 page per record. I would like to print a pdf file associated to that record before it prints the next record.

Here are the names of the objects being used:
tblMoveDoc
frmMoveDoc
subfrmMoveDoc
rptCheckList

Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Matthew

Modules & VBA :: Message Box When Editing Existing Record?

Jun 7, 2013

What event would I attach code to, to have a message box pop up warning the user when that he is editing existing records.

I would like the message to appear not as the form loads, or as he tabs to the first control, but right as he makes any changes to the data displayed. Preferably the box should have a "OK" to continue the edit and a "Cancel" to undo it.
