I am trying to enter an experssion into the grid for age groups. The result will be a text value based on the value in a column named Age. There are three groups, '<18', '18-30', and '31+'. I tried using the following but the result that is returned is #Error.
age_grp: Switch([age]<18,'<18',[age]>=18 And [age]<31,'18 -30',[age]>30,'31+')
Do I have the syntax wrong? or maybe I'm going about it completely wrong.
I have also tried a nested iif statement Age2:= iif([age]<18,'<18', iif([age] >=18 And < 31, '18-30'), iif([age] >30, '31+')). I get the same error message.
This worked for displaying the value on a report =IIf([age]>=18 And [age]<=30,"18-30",'31+'). However, I need to sort and group by the value so I can count the number in each group, so I wanted to put it into a query.
The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Procedure declaration does not match description of event or procedure having the same name
Now this is the error message that I am constantly getting from any command button I hit on a certain form. Here is the code of the form.
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Public inputCSV As String, ORG As String
I changed the names of the buttons, reconstructed the code under those names, went to the modules and changed names, made sure that a sub o function name is not duplicated in the project... But helas the error is still there. It used to work and suddenly does not work.
I initially thought I could make an IIF expression that basically says: if [d] in this row is the same as [d] in the previous row then add 1 to the previous record [new number], otherwise, enter 1 in this record [new number] (thereby resetting it)....
I have searched the forums for 'numbered sequences' (amongst other things), and it appears that either the Dcount or Dmax function appear to be the solution, but I'm having some trouble applying it to this problem. I was hoping someone can help me through it.
The following problem. Within my main form I have a status field. Dependent of the status of the main field I would like to lock the total record in my sub form at once. Within which event of the sub form could I achieve this and which property locks a total record?
I have a subform which has loads of check boxes for each record but i want to suppress certain boxes depending on criteria in each record. I think i need to do a For..Each statement but, as my user name suggests, I'm buggered!.
I have built a code database where right now I display my sample code in a textbox on my main form. I was hoping to replace the text box with a Rich Text Box. I could then format the code to sort of match what would be shown in the VB/VBA IDE.
I know the Rich Text Box was disabled in Access 2003 for security reasons. I also know that there is another free RTF control. I was hoping to find out how Microsoft intended for us to replace the Rich Text Box. I could use a Web Browser Control but I was not sure of the best way to add this to my form and then feed it the data that was originally bound to the text box.
Thanks for any insight you would be able to provide. Steve
Can anyone help me out here. I need to use an unbound text control to return me a value if a field is populated else "Local" if the field is not populated. Can anyone tell me if this is possible and show me the syntax if it is. Help appreciated. Andy
I am trying to write an expression that calculates a new field in a query. The new field is simply recoding values from another field (survey question responses) using IIf statements. This new field, let's call it RecodedResponse, will eventually be summed in a totals query to get the total score on that survey for each participant. Each record is a question response and there are multiple records for each participant (16 items on this particular survey). The problem is that for 2 of the questions on this 16 item survey, the responses are supposed to be eventually combined and recoded based on each other. So, my question is:
Is there a way to do a conditional expression where the result from the previous record is used? Or do I need to first do a crosstab query so that all the responses for one participant are on one line?
I am pretty sure I can do a workaround to make it work, probably doing a crosstab, then recoding in another query based on the crosstab, but it would be cleaner (I think) to do this some other way. Any ideas? Or is this too vague?
Is there a way to select a query field based on conditions? There is a table at work that I need to use for my reporting in which the field names are the months of the year. Since my report is monthly for that specific month only, I have to change my field in the query every single month. I would like to be able to put in some type of code that will automatically select the proper month field.
I work for a doctor, and I am creating a database to assist with surgery scheduling. There are a lot of pieces and parts to this process, and I am building a "bird's eye view" of tasks to be completed, such as "Notified OR," "Sent Surgery Packet," and "Scheduled Post-Op Appt." Each one of these fields has a lookup attached to it with three choices: "Yes," "No," and "Not Needed."
What I want is for the drop-down box with the three choices to be (a) automatically defaulted to "No," (b) immediately turn red if "No" is displayed or immediately turn green if "Yes" or "Not Needed" is displayed. In this way, the goal for our scheduler will be to get all the drop-downs to turn green (an easy visual cue that the patient is ready for surgery) by the date of the procedure.
I have a databse of bird ringing (banding) which I have turned into an encouter history by using the pivot table capability in MS Access. Example attached.
For each animal, identified by a ring number in column B, there is a set of "encounters" over time. A blank in a date column indicates that the animal was not seen or captures in that year. A number in the column indicates that it was seen or captured n times.
To format these data correctly for subsequent surival probability analysis, I need to replace all of the blanks, in each of the "year" columns with a 0 and anything that isn't blank (e.g. 1, 2 or 3) with 1. So, I need columns F to L to look like C to D.
It was simple enough to do this one column at a time...
UPDATE [Capture history intermediate] SET [Capture history intermediate].[1971] = "0"
WHERE ((([Capture history intermediate].[1971]) Is Null))
But I have a lot of data, spanning 40 years (i.e. 40 columns) and I will probably have to do this conversion many times as I work on sub-sets of my master database.
So, question is, is there a short-cut way to avoid having to create 40 different queries and run each one seperately?
I have a button on a Form which opens a report, passing in two WHERE clauses which are driven by two comboboxes on the Form (one for ProductType and one for ProductCollection).
Everything works great but I needed to add an "All" option to the comboboxes so that the user can get all Producttypes from a specific Collection or vice versa.
I've managed to add the "All" option to one of the comboboxes (using the UNION query method on the rowsource). I'm a bit stumped though, as to how I would actually tweak the function below to do a select * where the combobox value is found to be = All.
Code: Private Sub ProduceReport_Click() Dim strWhere As String strWhere = "producttype = " & Me.ProductTypeForReport strWhere = strWhere & " AND ProductCollectionName = '" & Me.CollectionForReport strWhere = strWhere & "'" Debug.Print strWhere DoCmd.OpenReport "Products Report", acViewReport, , strWhere End Sub
I'm running Access 2003 and my question relates to delivery notes that are produced for drivers as reports. These delivery notes have a blank payment box for the driver to complete if the customer pays upon delivery.
As more and more customers are prepaying by credit cards, I'd like this payment box to be automatically filled with a "PAID" text which will let the driver know the order has already been paid for.
The delivery note is produced from an "Orders" table which has a "Paid" field whose value is automatically set to "Yes" when the order has been paid for.
I was hoping to be able to place a "PAID" label on the report which is only visible when the Paid field of the underlying query is Yes.
As things are at the moment I cannot see any way to put any conditional statement onto this Text/Label. The only options for the "Is Visible" property of the text are Yes or No.
Have a generic dashboard report with multiple charts in it. One in particular is a bar chart, but depending on what the dashboard is produced for, the bar chart may have too many bars in it to make it legible. Therefore I'd like to conditionally determine the number of bars (basically the number of records in the query) and then make the chart go from one page and continue onto another.
I've searched and can only find information setting the visible property when selections are made on an open form--I want to set the visible property when the form is opened depending on which avenue the user chooses from the navigation form.
I have a navigation form (Form A) and a second form with a subform (Form B). The user will choose from a combobox, either an existing record or a new record on Form A. On Form A there are two buttons, one that will take the user to the correct record on Form B for editing and one that will open to a new record on Form B. Once Form B is open, all controls will be blank (if a new record is chosen) or with certain controls prepopulated if an existing record is chosen.
What I want to do is to hide controls on the main form (not the subform) of Form B if the user chooses an existing record. Form A's buttons work correctly to open Form B right now. I want to be able to hide prepopulated controls on Form B if the user chooses an existing record from Form A.
Here's the code I'm using to open Form B to an existing record. I'd like to set the visible property here if at all possible.
NOTE: "Form A" and "Form B" are not the actual names of my forms--it's just easier for illustration purposes here in my question.
I'm producing PDF reports in a VBA routine in Access through the DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport.
The routine works great, however i have now a new requirement and i need to change the report header so to if Country X is selected in a drop-down menu, then only image X is shown on the report header; if country Y is selected then only image Y is shown on report header.
I was simply thinking to make this through the "visible" option of the image, however it doesn't work because i get error "report must be open".
I need to extract the date from CODEDATE field if the "-" character exist in or from DATE1 if the character "-" is not present in the CODEDATE field, then filter the query on the date found.
I wrote that:
Code: SELECT IIf(Mid([CODEDATE],3,1)='-',Mid([CODEDATE],4,10),[DATE1]) AS DateFound FROM MyTable WHERE (IIf(Mid([CODEDATE],3,1)='-',Mid([CODEDATE],4,10),[DATE1]) Between 1/1/2013 And 31/12/2013)
The query above extra extract some records without sense for me, I tried many other syntax without success.
How do I conditionally change the Back Color and Alternate Back Color based on the value of notes.FollowUpDate? I have a continuous form using the following code:
Code: Private Sub b_all_past_Click() Me.resultsFrame.SourceObject = "FollowUp_bystaff" Me.resultsFrame.Form.RecordSource = "SELECT * From notes WHERE (((Notes.FollowUpDate) < Date()+1) And ((Notes.followup_person_id) = GetCurrentUserId()))ORDER BY notes.priority,(notes.FollowUpDate) DESC;" ' End Sub
now i want to split it up. i want to count all the records for each month. my field name is datein_now but its just a normal textfield and not a date field. example in field: 05/02/02 10:24:31 AM. also got a datein textfield:05/02/02 i had Count(*) where datein_now between 05/05/01 and 05/05/31
To make it simple, I have a list of contact names and their email. I want to have a form with no control source and have 2 simple drop down boxes for their Name and their Email. What I would like to happen is the user choose a name from the drop down in field 1 and then the field below auto-populate their email in field 2. I understand I can use conditional IF/THEN and list out each email, but the contact list is ever changing, so I want to first drop down to link to the TblContacts, have the user pick the name from the list and then have the 2nd field autopopulate from that same TblContacts with their email respective to the Name entered in field 1. My form has two field [Traveler] and [Email]...The tblContacts two fields are [Name] and [Email]
ok I work a lot on databases but have recently been asked to set up an access database for my team. We are a marketing team within a large insurance company and need a small access database for MI and project management.
I have made a start on this and going well so far but there are some things I need it to do that I dont know how :P
Ive never messed about with Acess before so bare with me :P ok so this is what im looking for, any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have set up various tables for look up wizards for some of the menus on another table I designed for the raw data entry.
I need two tables, two forms - one table for very basic generic data such as
- Job Number - Description - Business Unit - Owner - Due Date - Completion date
I then need to drill down into this to add more information, so its basically two tables on top of each other with co-dependencies.
So for example one of my team enter a new project at the very basic lvl, they have a job number, they know what business unit it is for and they know the date its due, as time goes by and work is done on the project I want them to be able to click on a button that takes them to another form where they can enter information that is linked to the original information.
So they search for job number 00000 and come up with the above data on the first form, I want them to then click on 'Project Information' button and be taken to another form that has a lot more stuff on there, like a description, complications, notes, links to documents etc etc. I tried to do this linking two tables together but it doesnt work as the two forms/tables are not co dependend and are irrespective of each other.
Does this make any sense ? and does anyone know how I might make this work ? Please let me know if I am not clear and I will try to explain as best I can
I would also like to change the form 'theme' aswell and have my companies logo transparent behind the data fields etc, anyone know how to do that as I only have the option to use the standard themes.
Is it possible to set which VBA reference boxes are ticked each time a database is loaded?
A problem is created when a person amending the database to the person using it has different setups and so some of the references show as "missing" and so compile errors show on loading.
