I have built a database that is fed from tables provided from outside computer systems, so the architecture isn't exactly how I would design it.
I am trying to use a combo box on a form to quickly jump to a specific department. I have about 130 personnel that are assigned to 10 different departments. I have to use a subform to update the position info vs. the personal info.
The combo box works, but I can't get it to display each department once. It shows the department 130 times for each employee instead of 10 unique departments.
I have a problem with my database I have a combo box that will search for my record. Actually its working I input the specific number it goes to the specific record. But I want, if there no existing record in my database it will display a Messagebox that "No record Found" I try to put a code in a macro builder in a after update property field but nothing happened.
Expression code that it will display the msgbox if there's no record found.
the given code from macro builder is attached. I try to have an if else statement but I dont know how to not equal that giver conditional expression.
Hi Guys. I currently have a search function via accountno on my form, once the account num is typed in and entered it will display the record of that account num, here is the code:
Sub Combo64_AfterUpdate()
' Find the record that matches the control.
Me.RecordsetClone.FindFirst "[AccountNo] = '" & Me![Combo64] & "'"
Me.Bookmark = Me.RecordsetClone.Bookmark
End Sub
I also now need the same function for the ID, but not sure how to do it. thanks.

I have a search combo box to search for a field on my form. But it just goes to that particular record. The combo box is for client id and it has more than one record. How can I have it return just the records pertaining to the client id choosen in the combo box.

View 3 Replies View RelatedCurrently I'm working on a quote form in an inventory database. The invoice form consists of a main form with the customers information and a subform which is continous and is for selecting parts. Each part has multiple serial numbers which need to be quoted individually. Basically what I want to do is when you select a specific serial number on one record, I want it removed from the combo box on all other records in the continuous form. (either previous or new) How would I go about doing this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've used this guide [URL] .... to only show unique values in a combo box. I can't get it to work, it just shows a load of blank values. If I run the expression builder part from the background, it works but it doesn't work in the combo box. Not sure what I can post to give more details?
View 13 Replies View RelatedI currently have a database with a few search forms. I recently attempted to add a box on one of my search forms to search 3 cells of a record for a key word. What happens is when I go to search, say for P0442, it does not bring up all of the records that contain that keyword in the 3 cells I have outlined. If I step down the code in the OR boxes of the query, it seems to work better but then for some reason my other search criteria , (Tracking number etc) does not work. I will upload the database for reference. I am currently working on the Search(View Only) and that is where you will find the query to work on.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a query which displays two fields: client ID and order type. I want to be able to display the client only once per order type. I tried to use GROUP BY order type but that gives me a missing expression message. I also thought of using UNIQUE as YES in qry properties but I'm not sure as to which row that property applies (all of them?). What is the best way to display a unique client in one row and order type in the other? So for example for order type "CASH" I wil then have a list of unique individualIDs.

I want to select unique country names from a recordset and now my code is
strSELECT = "select distinct country"
The problem is that ASIA and Asia are different, but it only selects one.How can I include both of them?
Hi,
I'm not sure where to post this, maybe VBA or Forms would be better, but I think it's fundamentally an index problem, so I'm posting here. I've searched both the net and here, but most of the questions are about preventing duplicate records.
I want to prevent duplicate records but save changes to existing records.
I have a form based on a table that has a 3-field-unique-index (but not the primary index, which is autonumber). I've written a function to check for existing records with the given combination of the three fields, as long as all have data (it bails if any are null). I'm calling the function from BeforeUpdate for each of the textbox controls. I was also calling it from the form's BeforeUpdate, but commented it out as it seemed redundant. I have other code there verifying that the user wants to keep the changes.
I'm trying to save the users from getting all the way to the end before discovering there's a problem. To test it, I added then deleted one character from one of the three relevant fields in an existing record, and bing, up pops my alert that I'm violating the index. Then I can't leave the field, I'm stuck there because I can't save the record.
I want it set up so that other fields in the record can be changed/updated AND so that a new record for the same person can't be entered (a dupe).
Oh, and I'm running into all kinds of problems with acCmdSaveRecord not being available. I feel like an idiot that I haven't been able to make sense of the posts about that. I can just comment it out and let Access save the record when it closes the form. But my bosses really want the users prompted about saving changes.
Any thoughts or suggestions or insights greatly appreciated. I really tried to search this out, so any tips for better searching are also appreciated.
Here's the code for the function:
Public Function CheckForClientDupes()
Dim response As Variant
Dim strFamID, strLName, strFName As String
Dim strFilter As String
If IsNull(Me!FamilyIDNo) Or IsNull(Me!strLastName) Or IsNull(Me!strFirstName) Then
Exit Function
End If
strFilter = "[strFamilyIDNo] = """ & Me!FamilyIDNo & """ And " & "[strLastName] = """ & Me!strLastName & """ And " & "[strFirstName] = """ & Me!strFirstName & """"
If DCount("*", "tblClients", strFilter) > 0 Then
response = MsgBox("There is already a client with this combination of FamilyID, Last and First names in this database. Would you like to Continue Anyway (Yes) or cancel data entry and Erase Your Changes (No)?", vbYesNo, "Duplicate Client Alert")
If response = vbYes Then
' DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
Else
response = MsgBox("You have chosen to cancel your changes. Your changes will be erased.", vbOKCancel + vbQuestion, "Data Entry Cancelled")
If response = vbOK Then
Me.Undo
Else
Exit Function
End If
End If
End If
' Me.FamilyIDNo.SetFocus
End Function
This is probably dead simple, but I am brain dead today.
I have two tables:
Requests with fields (ID, Cust, Amount, Ref, Date)
and
Actuals with fiels (ID, Cust, Amount, Ref, Date)
Now,
if Requests.Ref is null, then update Requests.Ref = Actuals.Ref and Requests.Date = Actuals.Date if and only if
there is only one record in Requests and only one record in Actuals where Requests.Cust = Actuals.Cust and Requests.Amount = Actuals.Amount.
Currently, I am just doing an inner join between the two tables, but if there are two requests with a given cust/Amount, but only one Actual, then both Requests will get the same Actual Ref and Date.
So how do I structure this SQL?
Thanks,
David
I have a table like so:
Code:
PatientID VisitDate Complaint TestPos
1 4/5/2003 Coughing 1
1 1/2/2007 Sneezing
1 5/1/2008 Unknown 1
2 2/1/1988 Unknown
2 4/2/1988 Unknown 1
I'd like to extract just one TestPos record (TestPos = 1) per Patient ID. And I always want to select the record with the earliest date. So the result would be:
Code:
PatientID VisitDate Complaint TestPos
1 4/5/2003 Coughing 1
2 4/2/1988 Unknown 1
I can do this but it requires 3 queries: a SELECT query where TestPos = 1, a GROUP BY PatientID query and MIN(VisitDate) to get the desired record per patient, and then another query that links the two so I can get the additional variables (e.g., Complaint).
Is there a way to do this without using 3 queries? Seems inefficient.
Hi I have a very simple table, with say 5 fields (all text). There is only 1 table. The first field is name, and I want to enforce its uniqness across all other table.name values. I am completely new to Access database and am not sure how to do this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Edin
I am using a software drawing program that intelligently link information from a drawing to a database and vice versa. I have many tables and queries that I have created over time that enable auto populating of tables, creation of tables and so on. All of which enable me with tabular documents for ordering purposes.
The problem I currently have is: - I want to create a table that looks at an existing table, analysis various fields for duplicate information and then adds one record to a new table. This is to enable me to create a spares list based on the entire list.
I have a full valve list with various items, some duplicates some not. I am required to produce a spares list that considers only one of each type.
I am trying to assign a unique two letter code to a set of record. From AA..AB..BA....all the way to ...ZZ, how do i go about doing this ?

Currently I have an Access form which produces a new unique number to identify each new record created. To do this I use the unique ID autonumber from a table to identify the new records. I would like to change from this simple number to the the above format per example 1. The four digits to the left of the hyphen would always be the current year and digits to the right of the hyphen would be the unique auto incrementing numbers such as from my table. I need the year to auto increment by 1 each September 30th (new business year) and I need the numbers to the right to auto reset to 1 to start uniquely identifying records again for the new incremented year. As each record is closed I need the number to be written as a single entity in the new format to my database.
Example 2: After September 30th.

2012-447 etc.
I have a database in Excel that contains farmers who can be identified by a Unique identifier: MZ-01-0001. The registration details for these farmers are not always up to date. Now when I try to append the data for the farmer with MZ-01-0001; with the primary key set on the Unique identifier, Access does not want to do it since there is already a record in the system. When I remove the primary key it doubles the record, which is also not what I want. So I am wondering what I need to do to append the record while keeping the primary key intact.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a MS Access 2000 database with 136 data tables in it. What I would like to do is execute a piece of VBA code which will list for me in another table, (for example: Field1: TABLE NAME Field2: FIELD NAME 1 Field2: FIELD NAME2 etc), starting left to right, how many fields would have to be combined in each table to represent a unique record.
For instance:
TYPE ID TEXT
1 1 "Cats"
1 2 "Dogs"
2 1 "Rabbits"
In this example a combination of the fields TYPE and ID give a unique record.
Any help most appreciated.

As mentioned before on a different topic I am building a database to sort through publication authors. I currently have the table sorted in a way that only the main author is listed for the 3000 records. Now I need a way to remove duplicate entries on a new table. Each entry is a different publication. Each record has a DOI code that is unique and an author which might be a duplicate. I want a new table listed by author once and a new field that list all of the DOI numbers for that author.
I know how to do a query to show only the unique names, but how to I also get the database to combine the records that share the same author.?
I am building a database to capture monthly statistics on a number of items. I want to ensure that users don't enter statistics for the same item for the same reporting period. I found the following instruction, but can't make it work:

When I do it, it comes back with an error: Index or primary key cannot contain a null value.
Need to generate a unique reference number each record wise while data entering by a form. How to do this by using a command button ? After entering all fields related to the record, when click on the command button, unique reference number for that record need to be generated and save with all other data of the records. in a later event, need to recall the record by using this reference number and also need to make relation ship with some other table by using the reference number.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI want the lookup to be performed with criteria based off of the same row that record being selected is on.
I wrote typed out the Columns and rows that my queries return, and attached a screenshot as well.
You enter your phone number which provides you with an indexed location. Based off of that location only certain products are available and I want them to be filtered accordingly. I have it working to some extent, here is an example below:
|Site Name|Phone Number| Location |Products Available|
| Store 1 | 5044645521| KNNRLABR
The lookup displays products available where the indexed products match the same location. Here is what the query returns:
| Location |Products Available|
| KNNRLABR| Product 21 |
| KNNRLABR| Product 9|
| KNNRLABR| Product 7 |
| KNNRLABR| Product 3 |
This is the affect that I want to achieve but, if I add another location like so:
|Site Name|Phone Number| Location |Products Available|
| Store 1 | 5044645521 | KNNRLABR |
| Store 2 | 3609061624 | VANCWA01|
The lookup returns all products available for all the records for each location entered rather than based off of the selected record.
| Location |Products Available|
| KNNRLABR | Product 21 |
| KNNRLABR | Product 9 |
| KNNRLABR | Product 7 |
| KNNRLABR | Product 3 |
| VANCWA 01 | Product 31 |
| VANCWA 01 | Product 8 |
| VANCWA 01 | Product 4 |
| VANCWA 01 | Product 3 |
| VANCWA 01 | Product 1 |
Is there a way I can make the lookup run off of the location specific to the current row that I am working on?
P.S. Here is a copy of the SQL statement I'm using right now.
SELECT DISTINCTROW [DSL Product CLLI's].CLLI, [DSL Product CLLI's].Speed, [DSL Product CLLI's].CLLI
FROM [DSL Product CLLI's], [Copy Of Copy Of Customer NPA-NXX's - ADSL - Data - Internet]
WHERE ((([DSL Product CLLI's].CLLI) In (SELECT DISTINCTROW [Location] FROM [Copy Of Copy Of Customer NPA-NXX's - ADSL - Data - Internet] WHERE [Copy Of Copy Of Customer NPA-NXX's - ADSL - Data - Internet].[Location]=[DSL Product CLLI's].[CLLI])));
Which Returns the Following in my lookup field for Products Available.
I want Access to automatically generate a reference number for a record based on the values in on two other fields for a given record using a form.
The first field is called Operation Number.
The second is Bag Number.
The reference number needs to be in this format: 19C.3.1
Where 19C is the Operation Number, 3 is the bag number, and 1 is automatically generated. Additionally I need the last number --the automatically generated one--to go back to 1 if with each new bag number.
This is kind of like library catalog numbers. Not sure how to do this.
