Combo Box To Find Records From Multiple Tables

Jul 30, 2013

I have a main form that has fields from different tables. This is a research study, so each form enters data into different tables. Well, each record is a person's data. Instead of scrolling through each record, I need an option on the main form that allows me to search for a specific person and have their data populate into the form.So far I am able to make a combo box that pulls up the record from one table. Well, HOW do i do it from ALL the tables!?? Do I have to make a query?

Find Records From 2 Tables

Jul 31, 2007

How would one go about comparing 2 tables and finding those records that are not common to both tables? For instance, I have a table that I suspect some records have been accidently deleted by the user. I would like to compare that table to an older version of the table, and list only those records that exist only in the older version of the table.
Thanks.

Queries :: Find Difference Between Multiple Fields In Two Tables

May 8, 2013

I have a database with two tables, one for the amount that was estimated in each cost section, and one for the actual amount billed for each cost section. The tables have the same number of fields, all with the same names. They can be linked together with event ID. Each table has over 100 fields and I would like to find the difference between what was estimated and what the actual was for each event. I would also like to see which cost section has the most and least variance. I am trying to do this without going through each cost and putting [tEst].[CostName]-[tActual].[CostName].

General :: Find Records That Match Criteria Of Multiple Fields

Mar 12, 2013

Using sql or access query I would like to create an expression that aggregates the first field and I would like to see all records grouped by the relationship with another field. Let me show an example.

My query shows:

Queries :: How To Count Records Based On Multiple Criteria From Multiple Tables

Jan 4, 2014

I need to count records based on multiple criteria from two different tables. I have two tables (i.e. "tblTasks" and "tblTaskHistory"). The tables have a one-to-many relationship based on the "TaskID" field. "tblTasks" has a field called "AssignedTo" and "tblTaskHistory" has a field called "TaskStatus". I need to know how many tasks have been "reopened", the "reopened" status is located in the "TaskStatus" field in "tblTaskHistory". I need this count against a unique listing of employees which can be found in the "AssignedTo" field in "tblTasks".

Tables :: Linking Records In One Table To Multiple Records In Another And Assign Percentage?

Nov 21, 2012

I have a table (tbl Team Info) which contains names and codes for teams within my business (>400 records) and another table (tbl Process) which contains a list of high level tasks (30 records).

I need to create something where for each team name 9in tbl Team Info) I can map them to the tasks that they undertake (in tbl Process) and assign a percentage of time then spend on each task. Each team could map to several different tasks.

Combining Multiple Tables With Multiple Records

Jul 16, 2007

Here is the situation that I'm hoping that someone can help me with. I'm working with a database that tracks our condo units - from prospect coming into the system until we close them as a buyer. All the units are setup in the system so a salesperson will select from the units available. All that works fine when I create reports. The problem is trying to get the parking and storage on the same reports with the unit information. The problem is that there are multiple parking/storage units "attached" to a single unit and I cannot figure out how to get them to all appear on a single row of the report. As an example -

I have units A, B, C
Parking units p1,p2,p3,p4,p5,p6
Storage units s1,s2,s3.

Unit A uses parking units p1, p2, p5 and storage unit s2.

Unit B uses parking unit p3 and storage unit s1.

Unit C uses parking unit p4, p6 and storage unit s3.

How do I write a query/report that would show:

Unit Parking Storage
Unit A p1, p2, p5 s2
Unit B p3 s1
Unit C p4,p6 s3

Thanks,

Selecting Multiple Records From A Combo Box?

Jun 15, 2006

Is it possible to have a combo box on a form and allow users to select multiple entries from the drop-down list? Thats just the tip of the iceburg. If you can, then I'll probably be asking more questions soon.

Thanks in advance.

General :: Combo Box - Multiple Tables

Jun 26, 2014

I have
tblProducts - Where is my inventory list and
tblServices - where are my services

Also I have made an invoice form and a datasheet subform (orderDetails) where I enter/choose (using combo box) said services/products but I know only how to do it for one table ex. tblProducts. My question is can I make a drop down list for two tables? One column - ServiceName / ProductName
So I can choose a service or a product in the same order line.Or do I have to join my services and products in the same table?

Choosing Subform From Multiple Tables With Combo Box

Sep 6, 2005

Hi guys,

I've run into a little problem while working on a electronics component database:

My plan was to use one specific table for each kind of components, i.e. resistors, capacitors, transistors etc as the specific data of each type is quite different from the other types (resistance/capacitance etc). I also thought I'd use a main form with a drop box allowing the user to choose which component to look for and then a component type specific subform to let the user make a more detailed search.

The thing is that I'm not quite sure how to call different subforms based on the drop box selection (I guess I need a subform for each type of component)? Or can I call a table with each component's specific data types and generate a subform based on this table? (I'd prefer the latter...)

To find a specific resistor you might want to specify the resistance, the type of resistive material, size and tolerance whereas an integrated circuit requires information on type of circuit, package, size etc.

All similar questions I've found relates to the use of a single, main, table only, I can't really see how to do that here...

Combo Box, Update Multiple Records, Access 2000

Dec 20, 2004

I created a form based on a table I have. Table structure is:

ID, Rt, contractors, Crew, activity, condition. A crew can have 1 to many contractors. Each “contractors” can have one activity and one condition.

The form has a combo – dropdown list with all the crews. Also combo - dropdown list with activity , condition and a text field update_date. And 3 buttons: Reset condition, Refresh screen, Save reords.

Every time when user pick a crew number from the list and set new values for activity and condition, all the records having crew = crew_number picked on the screen has to be updated in the table.

I tried to create a DAO recordset based on user selection of the crew, and to update those fields in a do while loop. Always does updated the first record and only one.

My question is: Can I do what the user wants, to update multiple records, based on a screen selection? What code should I use? If you can give me a hint it would be very much appreciated.

Thank you.

General :: How To Filter Records Using Multiple Combo Boxes

I have a table with the following 5 fields. (Service Type), (Valve Name),(Size),(Rating),(Description).

I want to do two thing:

First: I want to select the required information from the first 4 fields using combo boxes and get the last field (description) based on the selected 4 fields. In other words, i want the record to be filtered using first 4 fields to give me the last field info.

Second: I want to store the filtered record (all 5 fields) in another table.

Adding A Field To A Form Using Multiple Tables (And A Combo Box)

Jun 15, 2006

Hello!

It's been a while since I've asked a question here, but I can't seem to figure this problem out.

I am setting up a form using data from 4 different tables, all related, and I can't figure out how to add fields that I didn't initially add during the wizard set-up. I used the wizard because it's easier for me to do that and then go in and make the changes I want to make.


When I get data from just one table, all of the available fields from that table are in the "Field List" no matter what fields I chose to include in the wizard process. That's good. But when I get data from more than one table, only the fields I initially chose in the Wizard process are showing up in the field list. I can't figure out how to add a new and different field from one of those tables.

The way I "solved" this problem the first time was to start over, creating my form from scratch--but now that I've done a lot of work, it just occurred to me that I will need to add 2 more fields. (I actually don't even have those fields in a table yet, but I will add them later.) So, this will be an ongoing problem. Since this form will get much use, by several people, I don't want to have to re-create it every time I want to change something.

So, is this possible? How can I add another field?

Also, while I am at it... A combo box was working beautifully to look up specific records when I was gathering information from only one table. It isn't working anymore.

Thanks in advance!

Multiple Combo Boxes In Form To Choose Groups Of Records

Feb 16, 2005

Hello,
I am wondering if it is possible to have several combo "boxes" in one form. The form is based on one table. In the table there are several fields which use a look-up (combo) drop down box to choose from: Type, Description, Manufacturer and Location.

In the form I want a combo box for Type, to bring up specific records in a subform, then I want a combo box for Description to bring up another set of records (within that Type of equipment) and a third combo box for Location to bring up all equipment within that location.

When I have tried to set this up - it changes some of the data in the in the subform - which changes it in the underlying table. If it set the form to open in New Record, then nothing shows up in the drop down box. Is there some If, THen code I could use to make it look first in the Type, then in the Description field, then close those out and look for the set of records that match in the location field?

Does that make sense?

I know how to manipulate in MSAccess templates, etc., but I don't know much about the underlying codes.

Thanks for any help!!!

Using Multiple Combo Boxes To Retrieve (not Edit) Records From A Table

Mar 24, 2005

I'm creating a form that has combo boxes pertaining to each of the following fields from table "Documents": DocumentID (primary key), DocumentTitle, DocumentAuthor, and DocumentYear. No combo box is used with any priority over the others. The working form will allow a user to retrieve the full document record (data for all fields) by using any combo box they want, as well as any combination of combo boxes. This means that if a selection is made in one field's combo box, the drop-down lists in the other boxes need to update based on that preliminary selection. The filtered results for each field, based on any and all combo box selections, are always shown in a single datasheet on the form.

The kicker is that when a user starts filtering records by making selections from the drop down list in a combo box, but then decides to TYPE in another field's combo box, I want the combo box they typed in to do two things: 1) filter the records for that field based on what they typed, if any records meet that criteria (e.g. they typed "B" so only records beginning with B are shown), and 2) if no records match the typed criteria, the search starts all over (at the top of the cascade), filtering all library records based only on what they typed in the most recent combo box.

Does that make sense? Any tips welcomed.

I don't know how to cascade combo boxes in this way.

Getting Duplicate Records In Split Form Datasheet When Using Combo Box With Multiple Selections

Jan 30, 2015

How to correct the issue below. I created a split form and I have 2 combo boxes that allow multiple selections. The one combo box for LOB (line of business) works perfect and does not create duplicate records in the datasheet view of the split form. The 2nd combo box with multiple selections creates duplicate records in the datasheet depending on how many selections are made.

I have checked this in the underlying table and there are no duplicate records, it is only in the split form datasheet. I have checked settings and configuration between the 2 combo boxes that are reacting differently and they appear to be identical...

New Records On Multiple Tables With One Form

Jun 15, 2005

Hey Guys,

I have 2 tables (tblSET, tblPROJECT) that have a relationship between them in the form of strPROJID (Project ID)

I need to make a form that has all empty fields in it, and when filled in distributes the entered data to the corresponding field in the corresponding table. I have tried using the design wizard and just putting the fields from all tables onto one form, but the "new record" button is greyed out when I do that. I figure this will include coding of some sort but I am far from a coder.

Thanks ahead of time,

Tables :: Adding One Value To Multiple Records

Jul 31, 2013

I am new to Access here, and looking to start up a database that will contain data for thousands of footballers.

I have on one table ("Directory"), all 5000+ players, with nationalities, names etc, and on another ("Flags"), I have all nations of the world and their respective flags (as an attachment).

How do I add the flag of a players nation into the "Directory" table for each record? Is there a quick way? I've tried "Lookup" but it won't let me do it for images, I've tried "Relationships" but without success.....surely I don't have to go through the "add attachment" process for all 5000 records?

Find Records That Are Present In One Table, But Are Not Present In Other Tables.

May 31, 2007

Hi all :)

Ok, let's say I have 3 tables with the following data

T1 T2 T3
1 , 1 , 1
2 , 2 , 3
3 , 4 , 4
, , 5

I'd like to be able to create a query that has the only record as its result as 5 as it is the only data item the does not exist in Tables 1 and 2. I don't just want to search for 5, I can do that :) I would like to be able to write a query which finds all the records that are present in one table, but are not present in x number (in this case 2) of other tables.

I don't seem to be able to find any simple way of doin this and there doesn't seem to be a definitive answer on any forums. Anyone got any ideas?? :)

Cheers,

Matt :)

Forms :: Create A Form Using Combo Box To Populate Multiple Fields And Tables?

May 26, 2013

I'm trying to create a form using a combo box to populate multiple fields and tables.

I've created a text field to display the added information using this format:

=Comboboxname.Column(x)

in the text box control source field, and this works for display purposes.However, I need it to populate this data into a field on a table.

For example:

My combo box looks up data that has 2 columns, Part Number and Description.

The control source for the combo box is "Part Number". And that populates the part number in the "Main" table no problem.

The text box I created using the above format in the control source populates the field in the form, but not the "Main" table.

Is there a way for the other (description) field to also populate the "Main" table as well?

Adding Records To Multiple Tables Using One Form

Sep 20, 2004

OK I'm totally lost again.

What I want to do is;

Use one form to add records into several tables.

I have seperated my data into seperate tables and set up one to many relationships.

tblincident
--------------
Key#
Report#
Time
Date
Location

tblPerson
----------------
Key#
Last Name
First Name
Middle Name
Address
etc.

tblItem
----------------
Key#
Make
Model
Serial#
etc.

What i want to do is use one form to enter all this data into the different tables.

There can only be one record in tblIncident that can match multiple records in the other tables.

i.e. for each record in tblIncident, I want to be able to have the capability to have as many persons related to that incident as I need.

I was thinking about setting up a tabctl for the data that has to be entered for tblIncident and then change the property setting for it to go away and then have the next tabctl appear in it's place for entering data into the next table. The problem I am having is that apparently I can only have one table as the control source for the form.

So next I tried using subforms, but that isn't working either. I can't figure out how to make the subform appear in a specific place on my form, sized in specific dimensions I want where I want.

I am just starting to learn about this relationships stuff and it's kind of difficult. How do you make it where you can do this from one form? Do I need to make a query of some sort?

Any help is appreciated.

General :: Add And Update Multiple Records To Different Tables

Jan 12, 2013

I have a pretty normalized Access Database. The table that I am trying to add new records is tbl_returns and has 4 fields: return_ID, serial, reason and inv_num.

When I sell a card (or a range of the cards) an invoice including all the information is saved as a record in a new row in tbl_invoices.

If a vendor wanted to return a card (or a range of the cards) in the next visit (weeks or months later) I will accept and in most cases they want me to switch the cards with new ones. Therefore in a new invoice (different date and invoice number) I will give him new cards and return the cards that he wanted to change or return.

Now I have to assign NULL to the inv_ID field in tbl_allPins in order to make it available for sell in future. At the same time I want to have a record of the returned cards including serial number , the reasoning of return, invoice number and/or a little note about each one/range of the card(s).These are to be recorded in tbl_returns as you can see.

For instance you want to return serial numbers between 9876 and 9880 (includes 5 cards) because of the "scratch off problems" and your invoice number is 22222, using frm_returns. After you process it and then open the tbl_returns to check the result, you will see 6 records are added instead of 5. I was able to understand why it is happening (I believe so!) but I could not fix it. Also I cold not write a VBA to remove the inv_ID in front of the related serial numbers in tbl_allPins.

Also in another trial was ended up to creating the Form1. Form1 looks better (has no extra records) but I have trouble to navigate through the records in tbl_returns. There was a sub-form added but it was showing all the records in tbl_returns which is unwanted.

By the way, serial numbers and PIN numbers are each a unique number in tbl_allPins.

Tables :: Changing Multiple Records Using MS Access?

Aug 28, 2013

I am connecting to a table in our accounting software using MS Access ODBC Connection. I would like to change the value in a table for every record in the table 7,000+. In the latest version of the software a new field was added to the Vendor Table that by default is unchecked. I would like to have this field checked for each vendor. Is there a way that I can change all the records at once instead of going row by row to make the changes?

Reports :: Joined Tables - Returning Multiple Records

Apr 10, 2014

I a report based on query based on joined tables. Im using FK and PK accordingly in the tables and have a junction table.

I've attached a sample (removed all unique identifiers for privacy in case you're wondering).

Table structure as follows:

Employees tbl - Junction (License Link tbl) License No tbl, License Class tbl, Endorsements tbl

So the query runs on all of these tables.

When I build a report on the query, Simon shows up Six times. I suspect because he has six endorsements.

How do I produce a report on this table/query structure so that I get:

Simon.
Class, 1,2,3,4,5
Endorsement F,R,T,W,DG
