View RepliesI have created a web-database (? - There are globes over all the forms and tables icons) based on the Issues & Tasks template. This means that most of the data is entered and seen on the "Main" form, which has two tabs - Open Issues and Closed Issues. I have created a form that allows people at my work to input the necessary data and save it, so that it will show up on one of the two tabs. However, once a record has been created, I want to be initially locked if the ID/PK is clicked, so that data can't be changed or entered inadvertently.
SO, I changed the code so that when the ID/PK for a record is clicked, it brings up a different form, but one that looks exactly like the one that is brought up when entering a new form, but I locked all of the fields so that the information cannot be changed. It seems from what I have read that I can create a button on this form so that when clicked, it unlocks the fields on the form so that they can be changed, and then when clicked again it will lock the fields again. Is this true? If so, how can I do it? Or is there something similar I can do? I have seen codes that I could copy and paste, but I cannot figure out the place to copy and paste codes in Access 2010.
I have changed the Form properties so that Data Entry and all the "Allows" are set to No...
I currently have a command button to run the following...
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Credit Card Report", , acAdd
Which is an appended query.
However, I don't want it to add the whole table each time this is pushed but when trying to use...
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO [Credit Cards] ([Provider's Name], [Patient Name], [Patient Account Number] ... VALUES ([Provider's Name.Value], [Patient Account Number.Value], [Patient Account Number.Value]"
It doesn't want to add the single record and gives me an error. I'm pretty sure my syntax is wrong but not sure how to correct it.
The fields I want added are ... Provider's Name , Patient Name, Patient Account Number...
I have two tables, one is GENETIC and the other one is BoneSampleDNAprofile. Both tables have the field CY-Code. I want to create small form with 2 text box fields and one command button on the form to be able to insert CY-Code from the table GENETIC to designated DNA_LAB_Code in the table BoneSampleDNAprofile.
In that small form I would type DNA_LAB_Code and CY-Code where after pressing command button will insert CY-Code for the designated DNA_LAB_Code. This is continuous process after our Laboratory receive results from DNA laboratory. I have attached two .png files which are example of two tables.
In form I want to put a command where we can browse a picture and insert it...how to do ...

I am looking to add START DATE, COMPLETION DATE, START TIME, & FINISH TIME buttons to an existing form, so that when you press the START DATE button it would insert the current date into the field; when you press the START TIME-the current time is inserted and so on. Is this possible?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to have command buttons on a form to advance the current recordset filter date back or forwards one day at a time on each click. Would go like if today was the 15th and I clicked it would go to the 16th and then to the 17th for the next click and so on. Just not sure if I should keep looking for a way to do this, so I figured I would ask some experts before putting more time in to this then I already have to no avail.

I am at work, and I have acquired a database that prints labels. They now want the database to be coded so that after certain labels are printed the database will print a blank label. I have the code figured out as a Do While statement in order to print the blank label. The problem I am having is that I am trying to use the Insert Into command to insert the filepath into the table that adds the blank label.
|DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO Rod_tmakLabels ( Print, [Order] ) SELECT Yes AS Expr1, 'Rods Labels' AS Expr2"|
If I run the above command, it just adds the text "Rods Labels" at the end of the table. Is there anyway with the INSERT INTO command that I can insert the new label between the 2nd and 3rd row and add another row? Or is the command designed only to add a new row to the end? I haven't had any luck searching for this yet.

I am new with ms Access. I am using 2013 version and stuck with "pretty" easy task.
When I create the form, the values are inserted/updated constatly as I leave the input components. However I would like to insert/update the record only when I click the button. How to do that?
Hiya guys! This time around I need to know how to use a command button to input the date/time into a text field by the event OnClick.
I would have thought by inputting: VisitDate.Value=Date() it would have worked but no such joy.
Sorry if I sound really stupid! ;)
Thanks!

Good Morning to all:
I have created a form using Access 2000. Within this form are names address, Student ID'S, etc. In addition to this form, there are queries in there as well.
I wish to place a command button on this form so that when pressed, it imports data from another file(Excel). I assume the Excel file field names that I wish to import must match the table in Access 2000.
Is there a way to do this? I am completely lost.
Many, many thanks,
Dion

I know this topic has been discussed, but i could not find one thread on the general purpose of exporting an excel table/form to excel.
I would like to place a command button on my FORM, and let the user click this button and export the data into excel.
I tried using the transferspreadsheet method, but could not corrrectly, if at all get it working, and the help section within access2003 onlu covered importing into access from excel.
Please, if anyone has any links to sites/tutorials/ threads i misssed actually covering this topic/or thier own help, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Dear All:
I have created a form where data is entered. I wish to place a command button on the form and when it is pressed, it deletes data in specified textboxes. The texboxes are: LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME, MIDDLE_NAME.
I assume this is done using vb, but I am clueless.
Any help is most welcome.

Dion
I'm looking for someone to help me with a solution to my problem of importing data into a data table.
What I'd like to do is have a command button on a form. When this button is clicked the records in a table are cleared out. Then I'd like for a browse window to come up to locate an Excel file. The user would select this file and the data would be imported into the data table that was just cleared.
Can this be done without too much trouble?
Thanks, Paul
Is it possible to have a command button on a form that when clicked will turn the data entry property from yes to no?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to design a command button on a Form so the user can import the contents of an Excel spreadsheet to an existing Table in Access with the click of a button. But, i'd like the imported data to overwrite the existing data in the Table and not append to it. I've considered using linked tables but apparently you can't set Primary Keys when you do it this way.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHow can I automate different printers for different reports on the same MS Access 2007 database, without having to select the printer each time?
There are two reports that are printed on the same database. Previously, I had automated form buttons to print the reports, without having to select the printer each time. This was about 8 years ago, but I don't remember how I did this. Also, I don't know SQL. Nothing against code, but I did not know how to program, and just MS Access 2007 access itself.
I have a subform in which I want to put in a Command Button to open another form.
I used the wizard as per normal, but when you come to matching specific data fields, there is nothing in my left hand column of the sub form. I have checked the record source property and it is bound to the correct table.
I have read that this is an issue with Access 2007? Is this the case or am I missing something obvious here?
