i have a database with a few tables, but i need a special one that stores initial date and final date for a particular ID, but like this... :confused:
The table has the folowing fields; ID,STAGE,INITIALDATE,FINALDATE
New record:
ID1 - STAGE - INITIAL DATE - FINALDATE( leave blank )
New record:
ID2 - STAGE - INITIAL DATE - FINALDATE( leave blank )
When ID1 is repeated it must detect the blank field ( FINALDATE) , fill with the now date ( to finalize the record ) and also add a new record ( ID1 - STAGE - INITIALDATE - FINALDATE ( leave blank again ).
It also can have other records of other IDs in between.
I think i need a VBA code to detect the last record for ID#, detect FINALDATE field, write the date on it, save, and add a new record again.
For a graph i have the below code sql to define the chart results
SELECT [Load],[Displacement] FROM [try];
try is a text box containing a table name within the access DB. how do i change the FROM sql statement to look at the name in the text box and use it as to draw the graph?
options in the text box are for example
TABLE1 TABLE2 etc....
If i use SELECT [Load],[Displacement] FROM [TABLE1]; SELECT [Load],[Displacement] FROM [TABLE2];
all is well, i need to get it to look at the text box, well a combo box

I have a table witch hold a reference number in one field, house number in another and street in another field. I need to create a form that when the refernce number is entered by the operator the house number and street are automatically entered in the other fields. I'm not sure how to go about it can any one help.
Does anyone know if it is possable to get access to complete some fields based on data you have already entered? For example, if there were 2 fields 'title' and 'sex', is it possable to set the database up so that when you select Mr, the next field automaticly enters male?
I'm using cascading combo boxes with sql in each subsequent combo similar to:
SELECT DISTINCT [incidentnavigation].[type] FROM incidentnavigation WHERE [incidentnavigation].[involved]=cboincidentinvolved And [incidentnavigation].[person]=cbowho ORDER BY [Type];
If the result of the query is one line, i.e. click arrow and there's only one choice, can I get access to auto-fill in the box?
I tried an excel kind of if(count(query=1) then etc and it doesn't like it.
I have a table called customers and subtables are linked to this table. for example contacts, etc..;
I would like to make a search form where i have criteria fields like street, id code, customername, customername, etc.... I would like to have one Search button so when I enter criteria like the name or the street I just have to click one button. And I would like to have 1 reset button to delete the criteria in the fields so I do not need to clear each time all fields.
also I would like to see in that screen a subform where i can see the found criteria so I can click one button to open customer details.
can someone help me on that issue or does someone have such a form allready? :rolleyes:
We use 2 different forms for employees based on status. Pending, and active. Staff members should not be able to be set to active unless all the fields on the Pending form are completed. Is there anyway I can check to make sure the form is completely filled in before allowing a status change to Active?
I'm new here and I have a question: In my db I have a yes/no tick, now I want to create a button that clears out all the ticks in that specific column, possible? To clarify: I have an address db with an gift table (tbl_gift) and a yes/no parameter for, lets say, 'did they gave me a present with christmas?' (col_gift). Naturally I want to clear their records before next christmas, now instead of going through all the records and remove the tick, is there a fast-one-button-click solution for this?
Thanks in advance! Paul (btw: sorry for my English, I'm Dutch and damn proud of it!)
I'm trying to get a complete list of folders within a given Folder but can only get it down to the level of the main folders sub folders but should a sub folder also contain folders it misses these.
My code below builds a list like:
c:fld1fld2fld3
This function is used to fill a combo box
Function ShowFolderList() As String Dim fs, F, f1, S, sf, All, AF, FC, sb, sb1, sbf, sbc Dim Lst As String Lst = "" Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set F = fs.GetFolder(Me![FoldersRoot] & Me![StartInFolder]) Set sf = F.SubFolders For Each f1 In sf Lst = Lst & f1 & ";" Set sb = f1.SubFolders For Each sb1 In sb Lst = Lst & sb1 & ";" Next Next 'Now Remove The Last ; If Their If Right(Lst, Len(Lst)) = ";" Then ShowFolderList = Left(Lst, Len(Lst) - 1) Else ShowFolderList = Lst End If
I have finally completed my database project. It is a split database. Back End on a network server.
I want to distribute the front end to all users however I want to limit to the best I can what they can do to it. Can someone please advise me on the best way to wrap up and send out my front ends?
All security has been established. I am talking about the availability to see the tables, macros, control bars etc..
Auto complete was working with a combo box. After adding much functionality to a database I find that auto complete does not work on any combobox in any form. So I create a blank database and a simple test shows that auto complete works. When a form from the faulty database is imported in the test database, auto complete stops working on the test form. Even if the imported faulty form is removed, auto complete still does not work.
I tried creating a new database and importing the faulty form after removing all controls and events from the form except for the combo box. Auto complete still stops working. Not only on the imported form but also on the existing form which works prior to the import.
I checked auto expand and it is 'Yes' in all conditions.
What ever is causing the problem on the faulty form seems to cause some property of the database to change.
Is there some database option or property setting that controls auto complete?
Is is possible that importing a form will cause a database property to change?
I have a Maintenance work order form I would like to filter out completed records so when the form is open it will only show workorders that need to be copleted and also a way to view all the workorders that are complete
Hi, I'm trying to create a table which needs some feilds to be automatically filled up when the control goes to it. Say my table has feilds, "size" and "result". In each row, the result cell should be filled up corresponding to the size value of that row. This needs to be looked up from an existing table.
I have created 2 tables, one for direct customers and one for indirect customers. (I consider indirect a customers customer). The 2nd table has a field that links every indirect customer to a direct one. I also have a table for inserting credit notes. The credit note is either for a direct or an indirect customer. I am using a form for this one. So the form has 2 fields, one for each kind of customer. If the customer is direct, i only insert the direct customer field. If its an indirect customer i insert the indirect customer field. What i want is to create a combo box that when choosing an indirect customer, to display the linked direct customer and to save it to the direct customer field.
I'm trying to setup a process of opening a form, saving to a location, emailing it as a PDF, killing the PDF, move onto the next form - rinse wash repeat until done.The below works fine on a single click, however if I try to set it as an event timer of loop, I get an error saying: This action cannot be carried out whilst processing a form or report event.
Do Dim outputFileName, Ref As String Ref = Vici_URN outputFileName = CurrentProject.Path & "Claim PackagesCICA" & Ref & " - " & Format(Date, "yyyyMMdd") & ".pdf"
Each of the tables has fields for: -StartDate -EndDate
The logic behind the database is that each service is contracted for certain period, from StartDate until EndDate (if EndDate is not given - null - it means it is a permanent contract). For each service, we need to input prices. As prices may change during time, we may have different prices records for a service - we need to have the service period broken down into subperiods with different prices. So we need StartDate and EndDate for each period for which particular prices are valid (again, if EndDate is not given - null - it means the prices are valid "forever" into the future from the StartDate).
My problem is: I want to have a check that would return the number of services which period (tblServices) is not fully reflected in the prices periods (tblPricesPeriods). Those would be for example:
-gaps between subperiods (subperiod1 finishing 30.09.2014 and subperiod 2 starting 3.10.2014) -service period (tblServices) limited by EndDate (not null), while prices period for this service (tblPricesPeriods) having null as EndDate -start date for service (tblServices) earlier than earliest start date for prices periods for this service (tblPricesPeriods) -...
Preferably, I'd like to use a normal query for that (or set of queries), but I'm opened to other options.
I have a database for training. I have a table of employees with one of the criteria being active which is enabled by a check box. I have a second table of all of the training data. When I add a new employee, or I want to schedule someone, I want to be able to have a combobox on a form which I can select the type of training and then with a push of a button find if there is an active employee which has not had this training through results of a query.
How do I print the complete code of a project? If I select all the code with CTRL+A in the code window does it print all the objects of the project I'm in or I have to select each object from the drop down list at the top of the code window?
I have combo boxes set up with the different choices for major, minor, year, etc. Is it possible for these fields to have an autocomplete option? For example, there are about 30 different subjects that students can choose for a major, so rather than having to look for it in the drop down menu, could the person entering the data just start typing "ant" and have it automatically fill with "anthropology" for example?
I should also mention that the reason I made these fields into combo boxes is because I built SQL in the row source so that it is bound to the primary key but displays the description instead (with the column widths set to 0; 1).
I am building a database to store student assessment information. I have a table with student information, a table with teacher information, and tables which will store the student's scores on a certain assessments.
Q1: I have a field in the assessment table for Teacher ID and Student ID which are linked to their respective tables. What I want to do is create a form for inputting the assessment data but the fields for teacher ID and Student ID to auto-complete or be combo boxes, I don't care which. That is, when a person is entering a student's scores, and go to enter their ID, they won't have to type the whole number out and hope they dont make any mistakes, they will essentially have a list of choices to choose from. Or as they type, the corresponding number will filter down. I already have refferential integrity on so that they can't enter an invalid ID in either field but I want them to have the choice.
Q2: In an assessments table, there is a 1-1 correspondence btw student ID's because only one student can have one score on a particular assessment. However, clearly one teacher can be tagged to several student's assessment scores. Any better way to tag the teacher to multiple student's scores without having fields in the assessment table for teacher ID which is repeated multiple times.
