I have a database were there is a field called Item on 2 different forms and want to color the field a dark gray color when the order is audited the actual form names are below.
Form 1 - frmProduction_Schedule_ByCPO
Form 2 - frmProduction_Schedule_BySalesOrder
Field name - Item
I was thinking about putting an on click event that would color the item field so that people knew not to mess with that order.
Hi,
I have DAP database through which users manipulate with data.
There is about 15 different IP's accessing that database and they are all in local network, Intranet.
Someone modified one row with wrong data and I would like to find out which computer made that change.
How can I find out which one of those 15 IP's did modify that specific row?
Is there some log or trace file, some option that I need to enable?
:rolleyes::rolleyes:All,
I currently run an access database that has a list of all of the workstations in our active directory. It lists the hardware and software attached to that computer . We have recently performed a survey of all of these computers to confirm all of the hardware serial numbers and make&models. We now want to carry out a survey to get a list of all of the software that is installed on the workstations.
Does anybody know whether there is a way of doing this audit remotely? Also is there a better way to do a hardware audit? Unfortunately I am limited to not purchasing software to do this for me.
Any idea's
Thank You

Hi
I hae been using the Auditing Feature from the sample database for quite a long time and it worked perfectel. until now i transfered all my database from Office XP to Office 2003. The problem is that when i try to update any field the code stucks and nothing ahappen.
the cursor does not move to any other field . the buttons stop working. i have to use the CTRL+DEL to close Access.
Cn any one tell me what is the problem?
Hello :D I have an issue with Access I was hoping someone could help me on. So I have this pie chart graph with 3 sections, colored red for East, Green for West, and Blue for North. Now the problem is that sometimes, the data that I pull in doesn't have a "West" and therefor doesn't add it to the chart. This, however, throws the coloring scheme off as it assigns colors so that 1 is red, 2 is green, 3 is blue rather than East is red, West if Green, and North is Blue. I'll provide some images so it'll be easier to understand. (Clickable thumbnails)

I am working on a report and I am having issues changing the coloring of the rows in the report. If possible, I would like the first column to be completely white with no alternating color because there is only data in one cell at the top of each grouping. So the column with "Aggregates", "Attachments", etc would have no alternating color rows below them.
In addition to this, I am having difficulty changing the alternating row color for the other columns. I'd like to use colors with more contrast. I have tried changing the color in both design and layout view, but the options for formatting row color is also greyed out, and not available for me to use. In other words, the alternate row color button on the home tab is unclickable, for lack of a better word.
Using Access 2007. I have a form (Broker), with a combobox (cboClassifier), that I use to select 1 of 4 phrases, display the selected phrase and color the field with a color that I've assigned to each phrase.
Next, I have a report that contains all of the Broker names, addresses, etc. based on a query (qryBroker). I need the vba or whatever that colors the matching records based on the phrase selected by the combobox on the form, when the report is opened.
Can anyone tell me by looking at the attached Problem db, why
my audit works in Form "UpdatesA" but in Form "UpdatesB" in which i placed a tab control with the UpdatesA as a subform it does not work.
Can someone please tell me how to fix this problem?
Thanks

I am making a very simple 'registration' database for a children's event in a couple of weeks.I the table/form there is a checkbox field called 'consent' which, if checked, indicates that a child can leave the event without parental consent.
There is a report printed on each child (a registration page which the leaders get a copy of). I would like on this report a 'red box' to appear if the child cannot leave without permission (i.e. the consent box is not checked). I would also like this 'red box' to appear on the form. I had thought of doing it this way - but I'm not sure if it's the best, or if it's possible:
Have a field in my table called 'consentindicator'. When the 'consent' box is checked, there is a period ('.') placed into the 'consentindicator' field. It is set to turn red when a period is present. That way, when the consent box is checked, a get a red 'box'.
I don't have any database experience whatsoever so please go easy.
I'm guessing this kind of this is extremely simple for all of you.
I'm constructing a database of network resources and devices and I'd like to automatically update the values in one field based on the values of a field in another table.
The first table is called "IP" and the fields are called "Address", "IP Type" and "Device".
The second table is called "Devices" and contains the fields "Name", "Description", "Asset Number" and "IP".
Here's an example of the tables: (ignore the "code" tag. i've only used it to align my columns properly)
DEVICES:
NameDescriptionAssetIP
XserveFile Server107203.30.144.75
ProliantXDHCP119203.30.144.15
IP:
AddressIP TypeDevice
203.30.144.75Static
203.30.144.15Static
What I want is for the Device field in the IP table to automatically update it's values based on the values found in the Devices table. In this case, the values that should appear in the Device field in the IP table are "Xserve" and "ProliantX".
I've searched through but haven't found a complete solution, just little pieces which I'm too inexperienced to put together myself.
thank you

I created a form in Access that retrieves data from a table. Inside the form, I am able to access/populate data fields with data from the table. I also have data fields, inside the form, that requires key-in data. I have some how lost the ability send all data field information to a second table and clear existing data fields for new entry.
Questions: What settings, code or buttons can I use to send/store data field information to a new table? What settings, code or buttons can I use to automatically clear all data fields from my form once data has been sent to the new table?
I have main form and that has one sub-form , this Main form governs/determines the data in the sub form.
This Sub form ( DataSheet Mode) has approximately 130 columns and based on the Main form criteria only ~ 20 columns has to be filled.
What I want to do is based on the main forms criteria I want to show only the columns that are applicable to main form criteria.
If I use Columnar or Tabular single form for the Sub Form I am able to hide the fields that are not required BUT IT LEAVES A SPACE/GAP on form ( for the hidden fields that are not required)
Private Sub Form_Load()
If Forms!frmShowPIforActiveAndCanAddNewPI!FrmSubFrmFi lterProductInformationPerFMT!CASETIF = True Then
Me.CASETIF.Visible = True
Else
Me.CASETIF.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
And If I use DataSheet and hide ( visible = no) a particular filed it still shows up in Sub Form
Is there a way to Auto-Re Arrange all the fields in the sub form so that the hidden ( visible = no) fields no not leave gap
Or is there a way by VBA program to select fields ( Columns) from a table to be displayed on a sub form based on a criteria
Thanks

I have a totalquery that runs fine and give me the sum for both fields I'm looking for but I can't get the outputs to fill the fields on the form. I have tried the Dcount query in the control source but that just returns an error and locks up access.
Code:
SELECT [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, Sum([Tble-wcDelays].HoursDelay) AS SumOfHoursDelay
FROM [Tble-wcDelays]
GROUP BY [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, [Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID
HAVING ((([Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID)=[Forms]![Frm-ePlusCent]![cleanID]));
That is the query.
I have a query that creates counts of fields based on the data in other fields, basically it tells me that in a table there are two entries with value ABC????? and three of DEF????? , the query works perfectly.
When I create a form to display this data and base the form on the Query I keep getting a message box asking for the ID (key field) from the base table.
If I type * in the box (to denote all values) and press enter I get the results expected.
Basically in my order details table i have the following fields
Product
Unit
Size
At the moment i have the Product field with a dropdown that gives me all the products from my ProductT. But once i choose the correct product in the unit field it gives me all the possibilities of every product not just the units associated with that product. ie
ProductT
Grasshopper Box1000 Adult
Grasshopper Box1000 Subadult
Worm 10pz Big
When I select the grasshopper product and move on to the unit field i also get "10pz" option but this is not a product available.
How do i set up validation of the fields Unit and size based on another fields data?
I have a database that will register the emails coming in and what time, also the time, date out and person.
I have a form with the fields to be filled in and a submit button. There are some fields that are automatically filled in and others need manually fill in.
below that part is a sheet (subform in the form of sheet) that should be filled in with the above data. Once it is there, it should empty the fields so they are ready to be filled in again. If I fill new data and press the submit button, it should go to the next available row.
I have a copy of the back-end that gets a search key error 3709 on two records. In other words, I can duplicate the problem.
The interesting part is that I can update any other field on both these records and save the record, but when I try to change two specific fields, I get a Search Key Error and have to ESC out to continue (basically UNDO the change). Both fields are text fields with lengths of 7 characters and 255 characters, and both are COMBO Boxes on the form.
I tried to focus on the form think there was an issue in the code. I can definitely TRAP the 3709 error on the ON ERROR event on the form using "if dataerr = 3709", but then I tried something even simplier.
I went directly to the table and to each of the records. Again I can update any other field in the record but these two specific fields. When I try to change either of them and move to another record, you get a Search Key Error 3709.
By going to the table record directly I'm as low level as I can get. There are no validation rules on either field at the database level. If it was truly CORRUPT would it let me update any of the other fields on either of these records? One is an empid (not a primary key but is indexed with duplicates okay and not required), and one is status code (not a primary key but is indexed with duplicates okay and not required) so they're no critical fields, but something is keeping them from CHANGING.
Just tried something else; deleted the INDEXES on both the fields. Now it works! I am completely confused now because it really wasn't a corrupt record, but the indexes are causing the problem. Do I need to update the indexes somehow when the users selects a new empid or status code?
I have a product table that includes the name of the product, the quantity ordered, and the unit price. This is a summary table for the whole year showing all of the orders. The Primary Key is [ID] from the [tblOrders] table. I attached a screen shot of my query. I don't know if you can see it. I want to generate a report where each product is listed once, the unit price for that product is listed, the total number of that item that was ordered throughout the year, and finally, the total amount spent for each item during the year.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow can I get some mainform fields' data to be the first entry in a subform? From the mainform, I would like the Head of Household name and date of birth to be carried over to the first entry in the HouseholdMembers subform.
The two forms are tied to separate tables. For each household member I need to be able to enter full legal name, date of birth and some additional pieces of information such as income and source of income.
What I'd like to avoid is making the users enter the Head of Household's name and date of birth twice. Is there a way to carry that information over to the subform?
Thank you, Charlotte
Hey Everyone,
I am stuck trying to figure out this problem. I have a main form "frm_tirelog_600" which has 4 combo boxes "cboleg",
"cbocar", "cbopos", "cboserial" on it. The first 3 combo boxes are used as criteria on 1 of 3 subforms that I have.
The fourth combo box "cboserial" is used for the criteria in a query on another subform that I have called "frm_mount_600_subform",
which is independant from the main form, I hope I have explained that clearly enough. What I need to be able to do is
have the subform fill in 3 of the fields on it "leg", "car", "pos" with the value from the 3 combo boxes on my main form. I
can get it to show in the fields but not write to the table. I have searched the forum and have not been able to locate anything
that would work and really need any assistance with this. Im not real strong in the coding department which is where I
beleive this could be done.
I have attached a copy of my DB which I hope will better explain it. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I have a combo box linked to a look-up table. There are 8 fields in the look-up table but only if one of three is chosen do I want additional combo boxes to become visible. Do I put the code in the "after update" or "on change" event of the combo box and how do I express the code-
If TechniqueCombo="caudal" or "spinal" or "epidural" then
TextNeedleType.Visible=True
(am I close??)
Thanks
Hey,
The database I am working on, I split a while ago to give it some security. Now i'm updating a related form, and i'm finding that if I delete and add fields in the BE, the FE fields (being the fields that I need to insert into the form so the data entered propogates to the DB) are not updated.
How do I update the FE?
Thanks.
I reached the limit of 255 fields in a table. I just need to add one more field so I deleted several fields I no longer needed thinking I would then be able to add one more new field. However, I am still unable to add one more field. How to free up fields that are no longer needed?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have two tables - Hours and Employees. Employees table has these fields:
EmpID, and First, and Last name.
Hours table has these fields:
EmpID, Hours, Funding Source, Nature of Work, Pay Period
I need to produce a report or a query that will display these results:
A column with a list of all the employees and all the Nature of Work categories going across with the sum of hours for each Nature of Work. I'm attaching an Excel spreadsheet that shows kind of what I need. Also, these reports need to be produced for each Funding Source and

My question is that I don't know how to make a report that will just list a column with all the names and count the sum of hours for each Nature of Work.
Hope this is not too confusing, and any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you!
