Combo Box Which Selects From One Table Out Of Many?
Aug 9, 2014
So instead of having all of my data on a single table which is filtered out as I make selections in my initial 3 combo boxes, I'd like for each set of data to be on it's own table. Instead of filtering out the irrelevant data in a single table, I'd like the initial 3 combo boxes to instead filter out the irrelevant tables. My main reasoning for doing this is that I figure it would first off save me much trouble in the future when editing data within the tables and also that one huge data table would slow down Access eventually.

I have this code that works fine exept for one thing. If I have two names that are the same it deletes them both.
currentdb.execute "insert into charmer91 (last,first) values ('"me.list0 & "','" & me.list0.column(1) & "')"
currentdb.execute "delete table1 (last, first) from table1 where last ='"&list0 &"'"
How can I change the delete statement so it only deletes the selected name I have in list0, ie.. the highlighted one?
Basically Im moving data from one table to another via listboxes.
thanks in advance

I am setting up an Access database for a small school. The database contains a record per person. When we get a duplicate lastname field we set a family_id field to lastname followed by a number.
So for example the first Smith family needs to family_id. But the second Smith family gets a family_id of smith1. To select an ordered list of Families I need a query that will use the family_id if it is set and if not use the the lastname to collect family members.
My query uses a presorted table, CurStuByGrdTbl , of current students to produce the families directory by grade and alphabetized.
The WellSchoolCommunityAll table is the entire database. So if the student entry has a valid family_id, matching pattern "*#" then
I perform a Like with family.id otherwise I perform a Like with lastname.
This query gets me nothing, no records.
IIf(([CurStuByGrdTbl].[family_id]="*#"),[CurStuByGrdTbl].[family_id] Like [WellSchoolCommunityAll].[family_id],[CurStuByGrdTbl].[lastname] Like [WellSchoolCommunityAll].[lastname])

I'm creating an Access data entry form for computer installations.
Basically the entry form will choose a software and license, then select one or more computers to install the software on.
Then later we can create a report that can track what softwares are installed on the computers, or track what computers has what softwares.
Now my question is for each record of the installation entry form, after we select the software, then we will choose a computer name or more computer names.
If just one computer is easy, but how can I choose multiple computers, which control should I use? and how can I store the computer name list in the installation table, do I have to make each computer installation a record in the table or put multiple computer names in one record in the field like memo, but if I use memo, later it seems i cannot group or search memo field?
Can anyone give me some ideas about what is an easy design solution or samples about these?
Thanks a lot

why this query pulls every record twice and what I can do to fix it?I did it in design mode because I'm an amateur, but here is the SQL.
SELECT [Patient Data Table].[First Name], [Patient Data Table].[Last Name], [Patient Data Table].[C MRI Facility], [Patient Data Table].[C MRI Sched Date], [Patient Data Table].[C MRI Scan Done]
FROM [Patient Data Table], [Date Range]
WHERE ((([Patient Data Table].[C MRI Scan Done])=Yes) AND ((Month([C MRI Sched Date]))=[Date Range]![From Month]) AND ((Year([C MRI Sched Date]))=[Date Range]![From Year]));

Hi,
I'm trying to run a pass thru query into a sybase server from Access. The query contains multiple selects which Access doesn't appear to like very much. The query works fine when run in Sybase.
Is there any way of circumventing this problem?
I could split the three selects into three seperate queries to view the individual results but the third set is dependant on the previous two sets and so therefore is difficult (impossible?) to seperate out as a third individual query.
Thanks for any suggestions?
Select

Simple query, but I need to roll the results up with others and a null return is hurting me. I have been chasing my tail around with the nz(), input masks, IIF statements, only to prove my ignorance and possible insanity for expecting different results.
Here we go:
SELECT Count([LDB LOG].DSTHTL) AS ["tot120"]
FROM [LDB LOG]
WHERE ((([LDB LOG].[LDB Rcvd]) Between Now()-120 And #1/1/2008#))
GROUP BY [LDB LOG].[T-7 Date]
HAVING ((([LDB LOG].[T-7 Date]) Is Null));
This is being used to count open items into age buckets, the above is the greater than 120 days (discounting anything prior to 2008). If the T-7 Date is null the item is open. What is happening is that no records are being selected, resulting in the null value back.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have spent an unrealistic amount of time on this.
Thanks
Brendan

I have created a database.On opening the [Company] form opens up.After pressing the 'Add new company' button it creates a new record. when typing immediately into the 'Company Name' field, access highlights all the text whilst your typing making you delete what you have just typed.I have tried several macros and vba at various different events to try and solve including 'Gotocontrol', 'refesh'. I have even tried SelStart.

I have a field that is pre filled in with a value. The name is "Business".Then there is a combo box with various values. If the user would select a value that does not match with values that can be selected if in "business" a value is selected, it should show a message that the selection is wrong and user needs to select the correct one.
Example:If in the field "Business" the value "Food" is selected, then the possible values to be selected in the combobox would be: Fruit or Meet or Fast Food. If the value in "Business" would be "Wood" only selections could be made: Talble or Chair or Cabinet.So, if a user select "Food' in "Business" and in the combo box "Chair", it should show a message that the wrong selection was made and don't let them use the wrong one.

I open a form (EntryBasic) for users to enter data in, which is then saved to the only table in the database (MasterTable). The form (EntryBasic) has a list box with four choices: red, white, blue, orange. The button that opens the form is placed on another form (MainForm) The form (EntryBasic) record source is MasterTable.
A user is on the MainForm and needs to add a new record related to red. When user clicks on the button (NewRedEntry), I need the form to open and the list box pre-selected to red.
Is there a macro or VBA code that might simply execute this action, preferably something that can be attached to the NewRedEntry button?Even better, if there are two list boxes, code such code be applied to same NewRedEntry button, where both list box values are pre-selcted with the click of this button?

I am trying to find out if there is a way to track the order in which items are selected from a list. I am a dabbler and any keyword searches that I can think of don't bring up what I am looking. So, here is what I am trying to do:
I have a table of symptoms with 3 fields (ID, Category, and Symptom).I have a combo box that will allows the user to pick a category (using select Distinct on category field). I then have a list box populated with all the symptoms that have a category of whatever the user selected. The problem I am having is that I need to somehow track the order in which the user selects symptoms and then save that order for future reference and to be printed on a report. The order is important because the most severe symptom needs to be listed first.

I have a query that selects the "Active" records for three different selections, A, B or C.. There may be 1, 2 or 3 results for a particular selection. That is Selection A may have one result or active records, but Selection B may have three results.
I want to use data from the query to populate a field on a form. For example, if the results for Selection A, having one "Active" record would be RecordAData. But for Selection B with three "Active" records the result would be RecordBData & " " & RecordBData2 & " " & RecordBData3
My query is:
SELECT tblSomething.ID, tblSomething.D1, tblSomething.D2, tblSomething.D3, tblSomething.D4, tblSomething.D5, tblSomething.D6, [D3] & " " & [D4] & " " & [D5] & "-" & [D6] & " " & "SomeText" AS Header
FROM tblSomething
WHERE (((tblSomething.D1)=Forms!frmSomethingHeaders!D1) And ((tblSomething.D2)=True));
The concatenation in the query is labeled "Header". I want to be able to Concatenate the "Header" which in itself is a concatenation in the query.
I thought that this might be a looping through the query results, but I cannot figure out how to do it. But then, that is only my uneducated guess.

i would like in a form for a combo box to be able to select an item from a table and input relating information automatically into other boxes in the form..
I have 3 tables: Table 1 has product code and product description.
Table 2 has invoice number company details, address etc.
Table 3 has product code and product description qty and invoice number..
Table 3 relates to table 2 by the invoice number and table 3 product code looks up the product codes available in table 1 and also table 3 looks up the list of products descriptions in table 1 using the combo wizard.
This means the wrong code can be put with wrong description.
What i would like to know is how i select a product description and the product code in the form fills out automatically?? i hope this makes sense please helppppp!!

Ok my problem is this......
I have a form with a field "Property Status" on it. It has 4 possible values -
"C - SHELTERED (with warden charge)";"H - SHELTERED (No warden charge)";"J - WHEELCHAIR SHELTERED (With warden charge)";"M - WHEELCHAIR SHELTERED (No warden charge)";"X - DISCONNECTED"
When the value "X - DISCONNECTED" is selected in the form I want the record to be removed from its existing table and sent to a new table which keeps all the "X - DISCONNECTED" records together.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. How would this be coded?

I have a combo box (cboManifestNumber) that is based on the following table:
tblManifestData
ManifestDataIDPK (autonumber PK)
ManifestNumber
RemovedDate
ManifestComments
TsdfIDFK (FK frm tblTSDF)
This table is related to:
tblTSDF
TsdfIDPK (autonumber PK)
I need to be able to update tblManifestData with a new manifest number and manifest comments, along with assigning it a TSDF. how to be able to enter a new manifest number and the associated data without having it create two lines in tblManifestData. I thought that I could enter a new manifest number, then requery the table and form so it shows the complete list of manifest numbers (including the recently entered one) while staying on the newest entry.

I am trying to use a combo box to select the Company in an input record form for my Transactions. In the Transaction table, each record contains the Company ID, but not the company name (I have a relationship with a Company ID primary key in a separate table that has all the companies information).
I would like to be able to select the proper company in the combo box and have the form save the value as the Company ID number with the rest of the input data in a record (it will then refer to the correct company name in the other table if I query it because of the ID key).

I am trying to update a table with the value of a text box on the form where the table to update is as selected from a combo box on the form.I keep getting the following
Error message:
Run-time error 2465
Microsoft Access cant find the field & table_to_update & referred to in your expression..
But really can't see what I've done wrong. Have checked that the table_to_update string does contain the name of the table so guess it must be sql..
Code:
Private Sub Command91_Click()
Dim table_to_update, sql_string As String
table_to_update = Me.Combo49
Debug.Print table_to_update
sql_string = "UPDATE [" & table_to_update & "] SET [" & table_to_update & "].[Project] = """ & Text89.Value & """ WHERE [" & table_to_update & "].[ID] = " & Forms![T_entity]![" & table_to_update & "]![ID] & ""

I have a database for mutli users which is split. Front end is available separately for 3 users. These users make data entry in the same form from their front end form. This particular form has combo box that retrieves data based on selection in combo box and the use starts filling the data in the subform. Upto this, form is Ok, no problems seen.
But when the second user opens the same form from the split database front end stored in his computer, and once the second user selects another record from the combo box, first user's record also changes immediately to the record of Second user. Both users now have the same record even though the form is separately accessed from front end.

I am trying to build a Form that will show an estimate (then eventually will be moved to a project if customer and employee aggree to price and project) in a Form F_Estimates is a M_Customers(Customer_ID) (Based on a Table) and thier info in a Subform. Also is the "projected costs" from parts out of the Parts(Part_ID) (Based on another Table) in a second Subform as a list that I need to calculate $$$ in
(Dang that still sounds evil and definately NOT understandable even after edit... so)
Here's some basic info
Tables
EstimatesandParts - Table
EstimatesandParts_ID : Autonumber
Estimate_ID : Number
Part_ID : Number
Parts - Table
Part_ID : Autonumber
PartNumber : Text (not a number due to some part#s have letters in them)
PartName : Text
Unit Price : Currency
Description : Text
Estimates - Table
Estimate_ID : Autonumber
InvoiceNumber : Text (again can have letters in it)
EstimateDate : Date/Time
EstimateTime : Date/Time
Employee_ID : Number
Customer_ID : Number
ProblemDescription : Memo
Customers - Table
Customer_ID : Autonumber
FirstName : Text
LastName : Text
CompanyName : Text
Address : Text
City : Text
Province_State : Text
Postal_ZIPCode : Text (CDN Postal codes are letter num letter...)
you can see the link table in the EstimatesandParts Table
Now I want to use that link to populate a subform in the F_Estimates form
Forms
SF_Customers - SubForm
(all boxes atm are text boxes on this form till I figure out the Parts section then will use same base for this so I can pick any customer in the database to be the customer for this estimate. Also will have ctrl button for making new customer with customer form and a refresh on Focus Gain bit of code)
FirstName
LastName
CompanyName
Address
City
Province_State
Postal_ZIPCode
SF_Parts - SubForm
Default View -Continuous Forms
(want it to be a list of parts that I can grab prices and descriptions from then in a bit of code to calculate a cost of parts)
Part_ID : Combo Box
Control Source - Part_ID
Row Source Type - Table/Query
Row Source - SELECT Parts.Part_ID, Parts.PartNumber, Parts.PartName, Parts.UnitPrice, Parts.Description FROM Parts ORDER BY Parts.Description;
(Pulls info from the table Parts for input into a list of parts to be used on that project)
PartName : Text Box
UnitPrice : Text Box
(here's where I run into problems due to the fact that the form is not based on the parts table but rather the link table EstimatesandParts so I can't propogate the info to the 2 other text boxes, ps I dont care if they cant be text boxes and have to be linked or some other type I'm not "set" just need to find out how to make it work )
(have tried a couple things to complete this task)
Me.txtPartName = Me.Part_ID.Column(2)
Me.txtUnitPrice = Me.Part_ID.Column(3)
(works AWSOME ... for ONE ROW then propogates the second selection to the first and second and third selection to first second and third and so on ...)
(tried to make control source for the txtPartName to)
=Forms!Parts!Partname
(Doesnt exist .. akkk, cant use ActiveForm either as it doesn't focus on the SubForm but the MainForm ... cry)
F_Estimates - Form
Estimate_ID
InvioceNumber
EstimateDate
EstimateTime
ProblemDescription
(all basic Text Boxes)
Employee_ID
Customer_ID
(Combo Boxes Select Customer and Employee from list of present ones of each)
SF_Customers
SF_Parts
(Both SubForms on the main form)
Now this is an Exerp from my entire Database I like to work on one small problem at a time and I have made this its own little database till I figure out the problem then I will bring the info I learn back into the rest of the database and go from there ...
Hope you can help I have a feeling I will need to make a recordset and go from there but I'm just not able to wrap my head around that for some reason
Thanks in advance for ANY and ALL help that I get from here

I am still new to designing databases and have learned alot from this years database I built, in large part to reading these forums :D
On another Access site it stated, on a list of standard rules, that:
"Thou shalt never allow thy users to see or edit tables directly, but only through forms and thou shalt abhor the use of "Lookup Fields" which art the creation of the Evil One."
I'm concerned with the "lookup fields" part of this rule. Does this include using a combo box to choose the correct value for a field?
My current data base tracks work orders. Part of this is inputing the location of the work. The locations are all known sites that don't change. Currently I have a "Locations" table that I link to in my work order table via a combo box. On the form this combo box displays all the locations and I simply pick the correct one. I'm designing next years database and don't want to intorduce errors and bad design if it can be avoided now. I did some quick queries using the location combo box in a few different ways and had no errors or problems. Any thoughts or direction on this?

I have a combo box on a form with a number of codes to select from. New codes are added on occasion.
If the data entry person types in a code that does not exist, I would like for them to be prompted and ask if they would like to add the code, then provide a form to do so. Any suggestions?
