Conbo Box Selection To Be Entered Into A New Table
Aug 2, 2005
My Combo Box works and displays new entries in text boxes in my form. The selection appears in every record. I would like the selection to be stored only in the displayed record and not for each and every record. Any ideas?
My combo box works on an existing query( Qry1). I would like the data from my query (Qry1) to be displayed in the record (in Form1) which I am viewing. When I go onto a new record (IN Form1) I would like to make a new selection from my query (Qry1) and then store these details in the new record in Form1.
I am a little frustrated - please help.

Hi
I have a combo box which is populated as the result of a user doing a search. If the search only produces one record the combo box only has one row..
How can I make the combo box select the one row?
At the moment the combo box still shows empty and you have to drop it down and there is only one option to select.
Thanks for any help.
I have ....
If Me![CompanyList].ListCount = 1 Then
... But don't know how to make the Combo Box select its only row.

I have a pair of combo boxes which are n a frm and work fine.
The code is:
Private Sub cboSubjectSelector_AfterUpdate()
Me!cboOneBookSelector.Requery
Me!cboOneBookSelector.SetFocus
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Current()
Me!cboOneBookSelector.Requery
End Sub
I want the combo boxes to be repeated five more times so that the same options are given within the same form. Every time inset a copy of the same combo box get the folowing error message:
'Microsft Access can't find the macro 'requery''
I am ot sure what I need to do nrder t remove the error message. I did not create a macro called 'requery' tis part of the code above.
I have alos tried to recopy the code above and then retnamed the cbo in the form adn then modified then copied and modified the code to see if that helps - it doesn't. Any ideas - please help.

Hi there
I have a small problem that I was wondering if someone could help with.
When a user creates a new record I would like it so that some html is written automatically in to a defined column.
Is this possible? I tried to use the default value property of a column but access does not like it.
Any ideas :confused:
Thanks :D

I created a Form to enter data into a table. Two fields are numeric and typed into, a third field calculates the ratio instantly. I did that by entering "=field1/field2" into the control box in the properties panel for that form element.
However, when I look at the table, all the data goes in except this calculated ratio. Is there a way to get the form to "write" it to the table?
Alternatively, how to get the table to act like a spreadsheet and automagically calculate that third column, then it actually doesn't even need to appear on the form.

I am having an issue in access form that when I enter new values in a form it does not appear on the table. Normally, as I understand, value entered in form should appear on table automatically. This is not happening to me.
I checked the design view of the form and find that the data is linked to table, but in reality it is not the case.

Hello everyone. I am wanting to store the date the record was entered into the table. But I don't want the users to have to type this in; I thought that Access could grab the date from the system date.
I am new to this and I looked at the Date function but I am thinking it will just always update to the current system date.
Thank you very much if anyone could point me in the right direction.

How I would go about appending data to a table that has been entered by a user on a form.
My initial idea to tackle this was to create a number of text boxes as a method of user input which would all then transfer to a table but this doesn't have much longevity to it(if the database requires additional columns to be added, etc.)
The setup at the moment is two tables, a main table, and a temporary table(which is where I intend to first store the user input, this is so that the user can view what they have entered and make any necessary changes(undo))
I'm wondering if there are any easier ways to go about this such as, a msgbox appears and asks the user to enter each individual column data for a row. This doesn't sound like the most efficient way but efficiency isn't a priority right now and is something I'll look at later.
I'd like it so that a user can input data into a number of text boxes, a button has an onclick event that will append all entered values to the temporary table, this is then relayed(I'm assuming through requery?) back to the user as a way of checking before really adding it to the main database, and then if they're happy there is another button which is then enabled so they can add it to the main database.

In my office we have used Access 2002 for many years. We enter data directly into a table. Many values are repeated row after row, with only slight changes in a few fields. I am looking for a way to automatically have the previous value in a field entered into the current row, and allow this value to be modified if it has changed, but then become the new "default" value for following rows. I have searched the web and found solutions when using forms, but nothing for entering data directly into a table. I have also seen the suggestion for Ctrl + ', this works but I would rather it be done automatically.

Is there a way to create a relationship so when a new record is entered into the main table it automatically creates a new row/record in the related table with just the foreign key entered?

We are creating a database to log data on a project. There will be thousands of files. Can we input data, using the same table, at separate locations and then merge the data into a master table? We will need to do that many times.

I have a database (split into front and backend). Users populate the table using a form on the front end. Recently, it has been pointed out that some of the data entered into one specific textbox is being changed on the table. The data entered is always has a minimum of a letter and number value i.e. "A1", "A2" etc. Upon examining the table, this has changed into numeric values i.e. "1291", "1061", "852"... etc. Looks like it is translating them into both 3 and 4 digit numerical values by the looks of things. Where more complex data is entered such as "2(A1, A2)" these seem unaffected.
The field is set to text, I have set no validation rule, format or input mask. Just can't see why access is changing these values. It seems to be translating them, but I can't see a pattern.

Situation: 3 tables. Manufacturers, Countries & Provinces/States. 1 Form for data entry in Manufacturers.
Countries table contains ID, Country and CountryCode fields. i.e. 47, Great Britain & GB
Provinces/States table contains ID, Province/State and CountryCode. as in 1, Alaska and US.
In the form the country is easily selected from a list refering directly to the Countries table.
Problem: How to make a list in the form from which the user can simply select the province for the country that has previously been selected. And not a list with all teh provinces and states from every country in the world. (This would be a really really long list...)

I am fairly new to access but so far I have been able to get what i need from it, until now. I am trying to find a way of comparing two sets of data to find out an employee's average productivty.
Table 1 -Hours Worked (by day)
- contains 'name' 'date' and '# of hours' worked
- an employee would enter the hours here on a daily basis
Table 2 - Contracts Keyed (by month)
- contains the number of contracts worked that is derived from seperate system
- this is entered on a monthly basis (so for example: John keyed 30 contracts for the month of January)
- the system i am pulling this info from does not have the ability to pull a daily count of contract per employee, only a range of dates and it then provides the sum for that range (unless I ran a query for each day, for each employee which would take me hours)
- employees dont have access to this system to enter their own # of contracts keyed on a daily basis.
- for entry, so far i have just been putting the first of the month and then the # of contracts.
In a nutshell, this is the calculation I am trying to create:
(Sum of "# of hours" for the month) / (total "# of contracts keyed" for the month) = employees average hourly productivity.
I have tried to do this with various types of queries and reports but with no luck, I get a prompt saying that access can't compare the 2 fields.
Is there a way to compare the data that is entered daily with the data i would enter monthly?

I am designing a nomination form (web database so no vba macros can be used).
The form has 3 combo boxes: cboStaffName, cboLevel, cboNominee.
The form is bound to the tblSubmit table where the submissions are populated.
I used a select statement:SELECT Staff_List.Staff_Name FROM Staff_List; to populate the combo box for the Staff Name selection.
This is the select statement to populate the job level combobox:
SELECT Staff_List.Level, Staff_List.Staff_Name FROM Staff_List WHERE (((Staff_List.Staff_Name)=[forms]![frmtest]![cboStaffName]));
The select statement to populate the combobox for the nominee combobox:
SELECT Staff_List.Staff_Name FROM Staff_List WHERE (((Staff_List.Level)=[forms]![frmtest]![cboLevel]));
The problem is that the staff_name in the first combobox is still found in the nominee combobox which should not be because a staff cannot nominate self. There is a field in the Staff_List called YesNo that should be activated for each staff that is selected so that the select statement on the nominee combobox can be updated accordingly to remove items with the field "Active"
How to get the checkbox selected for each corresponding staff.
Sample of the database has been attached.

I created a couple database tables to link with my RF scanner for use in a warehouse.
Is there anyway that I can take a masterfile table and select 100 records, cut them out and paste them into a new table to import into the handheld?
I am pretty sure there is a way, just don't know where to start. I didn't think the macro's had that functionality, and since I have very little VB programming I have been forced to rely on Access functionality.
Any help would be accpreciated.

This is probably in the wrong forum, but I'm not sure what area the answer would cover, either queries, macros, VBA etc.
I have a form, on which is a listbox with multiple selection enabled getting it's data from a query. What I want to do is for the user to be able to select multiple products from the listbox and have some VBA code or query concatenate each id and insert them into a table, separated by commas so I can separate them again for reports etc.
Eg.
Listbox:
ID
1
2
3
User selects 1 and 2 and clicks submit. Selections are concatenated to 1,2 and inserted into the table.
Please bear in mind I'm not the best at this kind of advanced databasing, so a simple or at least easy to follow answer would be very appreciated.
Thank you all in advance.
Steve

I'm creating a database for my job. I have 4 tables with information. When I need to deliver some items i must know which items to take, They are in those 4 tables.
I want to make it that i can click a menu on my switchboard that i see a report with all the information with a clickbox behind it. If i select this box and click a button generate it creates a report with all the items i've selected with the select box.
So in short:
1.) How do I create a table with all the items from the other tables that are automatic updated when insert a items in one of those 4 tables.
2.) How do I create a report where i can select some items that are generating a report with the selected items.
