I'm creating a form where people can choose something in the first combo box [ComboBox1] which results in the second combo box [ComboBox2] displaying only the items that are associated with the first combo box [ComboBox1].
In my second combo box I have the amount of "empty lines" that equals with the items associated with the first combo box. But there is nothing displaying. No words.
I have one combo box bounded with two fields, Id and Description through a query.
I entered a new id in bonded table but for some reason I don't want to enter description now.
And if I delete the entered id then I will loss that unique id which is using for description, which I don't want.Now the problem is one blank space showing in my combo box.
So what criteria I should use in query criteria to avoid blank spaces?
I have a report on which I have a combo box showing text value as open issues and closed issues. What I want to do is on the report in a text box show count of open issues and closed issues separately.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI seem to remember that there is a way, in a combo box, of entering an entry that isn't displayed in the combo box, so that you can then process that entry into a form's underlying table?
I think the example of doing this was in the MS Samples database for either Access 97 or Access 2000.
Does anyone recall what I'm talking about? Second question, does anyone have a link to those sample databases? Our technicians didn't bother loading the samples for us, so I'm kinda stuck.
Thank you tremendously to any and all who reply..... I'm looking forward to your responses!
Hi
Can anyone suggest a method for doing what the title asks. I basically have a single table with several fields. One of the fields is the length of music tracks in seconds. What i want to do is to set criteria so that when a query is run the records to not add up to more than 900 seconds.
1stly) Is this "do-able" using queries or do i need to start implementing sql statements which i have limited experience of?
2ndly) Can anyone recommend a suitable method to do so provided it isn't very complex.
My knowledge of Access is Intermediate.
Kind regards
In Access 2003 I have a form, at the footer of which I want to put some summary information. One of which is a count of the number of purchases over £500. I have tried many variations after searching the posts on this site but the only one which does not return me an error of some kind with the expression is
=IIf([Bought For]>"500",Count([Bought For]),0)
where 'Bought For is the reports listing of the purchase prices in a given date range when opening the report, but the value returned in my test is '0' when it should be '2' as the test file has two purchases of over £500.
I have One table(and designed form from it) in which i have recording the daily transactions(it is like a daily book). Daily transactions took place like Purchase of items of Amount 45, sale=70, sold on account=100 etc.
What problem i am facing is: I would like to Add Cash In Hand amount and would like to show it on my form. When day end I would like to move remaining cash In Hand on separate column of that date. The next day i would like to take the previous Remaining Cash in Hand as Cash In Hand at Start for next date and so on.
I am trying to make a report in which I can see the amount of money that I have to pay weekly to an employee. To explain myself clearer, I have different rates for each employee. For example:
NameNormalPayRateVacationPayRateSickPayRateOvertimePayRateStandbyPayRate
John Smith$15$10$15$30$8
Ken Jonson$10$8$10$20$8
I am doing this in a query. So what I want to be able to do is, for example, take 4 hours that the employee worked at NormalPayRate and multiply it. But if tomorrow the employee worked at a different rate, for example 3 hours overtime, I want those 3 hours multiplied by OvertimePayRate.
The way I saw it on my Google researches, is that they have only one rate and the amount will be [SumOfHours]*[Rate]. But how can I tell my query to skip, for example, one rate because the employee didn't work at that rate that day. So I can have different amount for the different rates.
By the way, entering the information I can divide at what rate the employee worked x day. So if the employee work 6 hours at regular, and later on 4 hours at standby, I have those information separated in my table.
Results that I am getting: I can easily get the amount in money multiplying the whole hours by a rate, so my result in my report will be multiplied by the same rate.
I am using Access 2013 ...
I have a report that is returning percentages based upon other calculated fields. Some of the percentage fields are showing #Num on the report. I've found this is due to one of the calculated values being zero.
3 Fields used:
Field: Qty
Total: Sum
Field: InitQty
Total: Sum
Field: OrderQty: Sum([Qty]-[InitQty])
Total: Expression
I need two more fields to return percentages based off of those 3 fields. This is what I started out with:
Field: InStock: [SumOfInitQty]/[SumOfQty]
Total: Expression
Field: Ordered: [OrderQty]/[SumOfQty]
Total: Expression
This works great until the query returns one that has sum of qty equal to zero. So this is what I've tried:
Field: InStock: IIf(Nz([SumOfInitQty],0),0,[SumOfInitQty]/[SumOfQty])
Total: Expression
Seems like it should work but its still showing #Num when I run the query.
Hello,
i have done a search.. and found a post which half answered my problems..
I have a Table with some columns which contain Yes/No check boxes as field types.
I have a form with two unbound combo's with their rowsource property set to a Value List "0";"-1"
When I run my form I get 0 and -1 as options in the combos..how would i get Yes or No as options. (i have changed the Value List to "Yes";"No" but the query gives me an error. I also tried to set the rowsource to SELECT Distinct Car from Pupils; and this 'does' work but i dont get the ALL column. I have also tried SELECT Car from Pupils UNION SELECT "" from Pupils;
This gives me the ALL at the top..but 0 and -1 as values to choose from..
I understand that Access stores values in checkboxes as 0 and -1
so to recap..
I want to click on the dropdown combo and have a blank 1st entry.. then entry 2 and 3 will be Yes and No ..not 0 and -1
attached my db file..
kind regards

I have a chart that shows the amount of complaints every month in the last year of a selected costumer. The goal is to see if the amount of complaints from this costumer is decreasing or increasing.
The problem is that some smaller costumers have months without complaints (in real life that isn’t that bad). But my graph only displays a dot for the months were the amount of complaints is not null. This makes that the graph line doesn’t show the complete picture.
I know that I should be able to solve this with an ISNULL expression. I have tried the following SQL code as Row Source of the graph:
SELECT (Format([Complaintdate],"MMM 'YY")), ISNULL(Count([Complaintnumber])),0 AS [CountOfComplaintnumber] FROM [Complaints] WHERE [Complaintdate] > (Date() -365) AND [Costumername] = Forms!Report_complaintscostumer!Combocustumername GROUP BY (Year([Complaintdate])*12 + Month([Complaintdate])-1),(Format([Complaintdate],"MMM 'YY"));
The result of this is that all the months with complaints now get a 0 value and still the months without complaints aren’t shown.
What am I doing wrong? Could someone help me solve this problem? Any help is greatly appreciated!
Hello all, I am trying to dispay results in a query which is based upon time.
e.g.
Sample data - class and class start time
Class one - 7pm
Class two - 7pm
Class three - 7pm
Class Four - 8pm
Class Five - 8pm
Class Six - 9pm
Class Seven - 9pm
Class Eight - 9pm
Class Nine - 9pm
If i was using the sample data above and the time was between 7pm to 8pm i would like to show only the classes which started at 7pm, or if the time was 8pm to 9pm, only show the classes which started at 8pm and the same for 9pm
I hope i have explained myself clearly, and I will be thankful for any help.
Thanks
Hi Guys,
I`ve searched the forums, but not knowing the terminology, i cant find what I`m looking for.
I have a table which is use for a drop down list in my forms.
This is saved into a table, but shows up as a numerical instead of the name value.
Also In reports, I get a numerical value, instead of the text value.
Is there something I`m over looking ?
Or am I doing something totally wrong.
My relationships are correct. and the field data is right, I just cant over come the number issue.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
Each client has either an entry with a correspondence number or a notes number. So, the table would look somewhat like this:
Client: 333, Correspondence: 1, Notes: Blank
Client: 333, Correspondence: 2, Notes: Blank
Client: 333, Correspondence: Blank, Notes: 3
Client: 333, Correspondence: Blank, Notes: 4
How would I make a report that will make it look like this
Client: 333, Correspondence: 1, Notes: 3
Client: 333, Correspondence: 2, Notes: 4
Thanks! Hope that was clear.

I have a combobox with the following specs.
Row Source Type = Value List
RowSource = 1;test1;2;test2;3;test3;4;test4;5;test5;6;test6;7; test7;8;test8;9;test9;10;test10;11;test11;12;test1 2
ColumnCount = 2
ColumnWidths = "0cm;8cm"
Bound Column = 1
For some reason unknown to me, although the combobox does drop down when entered, the values are not visible until selected, then the selected item is visible in the combobox, but still isn't visible in the drop-down list.

I'm using Access 2010
I have a list of departments, 1-17, where each needs a SUM of their price for each end of day.
At first I was going to make 17 queries, and place each into a new sub-report, but there must be a way to list all 17, even if they haven't had a sale put through.
I've tried linking using "show all values in tblDept and only those that match in tblOrder" - but I cam across a very obvious issue.
The items are grouped by Z1 Number, a unique number for the end of day sales. If there is no department linked to a Z1 number, then it won't show it. For example, if there were no sales in dept01, then there is no record under tblOrder to show a Z1 number for dept01 - so there is nothing to link to in the report.
I was then thinking of creating false data at the end of day so the Z1 number mentioned each department at least once, but that would get messy and not 'normal'
I'm thinking of a type of loop to generate the report so a 17 row report is generated,
However, the data is now showing on the generated invoice.The rest are showing up but one.I went back to the tables to check and there is data present.It used to work until recently.

I am trying to create a query to show the sum of monies received. However, where there is no money received instead of showing the value as £0.00 it comes up blank.
How do I get it to show it as £0.00 when run?

I have a form for data entry that have multiple comboboxes. I am trying to get one combobox to base its "list" on an entry from a previous combobox. The first combobox is based on a QuantityType table and has four options.
The next combobox is based on a ProductDesign table and will have close to fifty options. I want to limit the ProductDesign combobox based on the QuantityType selection which will give the QuantityTypeID. This will refer to the QuantityTypeID linked to the ProductDesign table.I have created a query that looks like this:
SELECT Product_Design.Product
FROM Product_Design, Quantity_Type
WHERE Product_Design.QuantityTypeID = Quantity_Type.QuantityTypeID
AND Quantity_Type.QuantityType = [Forms]![Product]![Qty_Type];
This Query works and if I simply run the query I get the needed information from it.What I would like to do with this query is to populate the ProductDesign combobox with this data.I have tried putting the query in the RowSource field but I get an empty combobox without the data. The strange this is that the combobox must be getting something from the query because the length of the combo box varies based on my QuantityType selection. I.E. if I select "Single" in the QuantityType, the ProductDesign dropdown shows three empty places for data whereas if I select "Multiple" in the QuantityType I see that there is ten empty places for data.getting the combo box to actually show each option?
I need some normalizing my data properly, and then showing the values in a form.
Currently, my table relationships look like this;
However, there can be multiple Genres per Band and each Genre will be applied to multiple Bands, and I know this is a Many-To-Many relationship, but I'm uncertain on how to create this properly and then show it in a subform in a form.
I am using workdays to calculate time passed between two dates. I also have a table for Holidays that I don't want counted as work days. This is working well, but I would like my queries to show a null value instead of showing #Error when a date field is empty. Here is my coding in my Module.

I have 7 fields in a listbox (1st is the ID, hidden) from the single table. 3 of these fields are foreign keys. How do I get them to display their related values instead of the foreign key value?
Background:I'm purpose-building my db to essentially track individually cataloged items, somewhat like a library system would. I have four main tables: tblMediaItems, tblUsers, tblTransactions, and tblLocations. Users wills be spending 90% of their time on the Details form for the particular media item record they're viewing.
I'm trying to show an item's transaction history on the main form. I added a listbox (because I liked that compact presentation style) and got the desired fields to show up from tblTransactions. I figured out how to accomplish this for a single column combo box with the wizard, but so far I don't see how I would do this with multiple fields in a listbox.
In one table i Have component group Id and the description as fields then another table has the sub groupings for each Component Group Id
Example
Component Group ID = 1 which is the primary key
Description = Keyboards
Component
Sub datasheet has Group ID = 1 foreign key
Descriptive Options = USB, Wireless, PS2, Serial
I have joined both of these in a query but what i want is the query when i link it to the combo box on the form i have to only show the Group ID once and not repeat it for as many times as each subdatasheet has records.
Example: When i click External Device I dont want to see the word Keyboard being repeated 4 times (which is because there are four subrecords/types of keyboards) Please Advise.
I have a form (frmHourEnter) with a combo box (cmbJob) and if the number entered into the combobox is not in the list then another form (frmJob) is opened and a new number is entered. On closing this form I run:
Code:
Me.Form!frmHourEnter!cmbJob.Requery
The combo box (cmbJob) does not show the new number unless I close the form (frmHourEnter) and re-opened it. If I add the following code to the one above:
Code:
DoCmd.Requery "Form!frmHourEnter!cmbJob"
Then click out of, and then back into cmbJob the number is in the list! What can I do so that the number is in the list when the second form is closed?
Hi guys,
i have built a query to find the sums of various fields from various tables. i want to make ONE piechart from all these the sum values... i.e.
Cars - 500
Planes - 300
Those digger things i always wanted as a kid - 200
But the stupid MSchart activex thingy in Access 2007 always wants to Sum/max/be an idiot to the data. All i want is a damn pie chart!
Any ideas?
If it can be done in VB by saying "split the piechart into 3 pieces. One = Cars, two = Planes, three = diggers" - that would be ace
I have a combo box to show bring up the cost of my products .Although it shows the correct prices in the combo box ,when i select the cost it posts an entirely different cost in the appropriate field. It seems to be posting the product id number with £ sign in front of it
