I have a "people" form which displays different people individually with an "awards" subform that displays the awards that they have received. I created a command button that would then open up a "new award entry" form that would allow data entry of new awards.
Is there any way that I can have the "new award entry" form automatically have the person from the "people" form that I was last looking at? Instead of having to enter in the person getting the new award everytime.
i have 3 tables inventory and sales and order and i made 3 forms for each table
in inventory form the user will only read the data
in sales and order the user will enter and delete the data
so my problem is i want to know how when the user enter the data in order form all the data will be copy in inventory table so what ever added in order table it will be copy or updated to inventory table
I have read some of the posted threads. But I still couldn’t understand on how to solve my problem.
The scenario
I have 2 forms which linked to 2 different tables with the same attributes.
Example: Form 1 links to table 1.Collumns (index,name,address) Form 2 links to table 2. Columns (index,name,address)
The problem
How do I replicate the same data from Form 1 to Form 2 with Single button / command?
The Objective
What I’m trying to do is to create an auto fill function so that user do not have to type in the data into form 2 / table 2 by referring to form 1 / table 1.
I have a form which is bound to a table. I want some of the Data to go to another table which is not the control source. I am trying this code, but no luck. What am I doing wrong?
My user will open the database & use frm_TEMP. They will see a record using the form. The data will be in tbl_TEMP at first. My user will check all data, make any changes, then I want them to click a button on the form that will move the corrected record from tbl_TEMP to tbl_FINAL. It will then refresh the form and bring up the next record.
I have a form and a button it to copy the data to save me time when 99% is duplicated Ie If I enter 2 siblings data I fill one out then copy it and only change the siblings name a bdate.Then problem is it does copy the data but locks up the form. I have t X out the form when I do a warning comes up asking me if I want to empty the clipboard of, in short, a massive amount of data. I say yes and then reopen the form and there is the duplicate data ie 2 records.

In the Incidents form, i've a button which loads the frmEmployers with datasheet view.
Is it possible, by clicking/dbclicking on specific employer, his data (empid, fullname, etc) to autofill/copy to the same fields in form of incidents and save the record?
I've tried with combobox selection(Employers fullname) and autofield, but record didn't save the autofill data.
I have a form with 2 subforms, each based on their own table. One displays categories of invoices (e.g. rent, electricity, etc.) including some details like monthly costs.
I would like users to be able to select one of those categories and copy this to another table, after which they can enter on what date the invoice was paid, to make a history of payments.
At first I based fields in the history table on fields in the categories table so that you could simply pick a category from a combobox. I had an after update event on that combobox that also automatically set the 'costs' combobox to the matching price.
Worked fine, but had one snag: if I update the costs of a category in the categories table (e.g. the rent goes up) then all the costs in the history table was also updated because the fields got their info from that table.
So now I no longer have field from the history table based on the other table, and want to use 'set value' to copy values from one table to the other. I'd like the user to be able to somehow select a category with a single click on a button, and getting the info for that category copied. However, how can I get access to know from which record I want the fields copied?
Or is there a completely different way to get a history of payments that works much better?
I have a continuous form that has 5 columns of data per line and it also has a 6th column that I can enter data into. What I want to be able to do is if I enter data into the 6th column it will copy that record except the 5th column to a report.
I have tried searching this forum and other but not quite sure of the terminology so not getting good results.
I have a form puling from one table and then a subform in that form pulling from another table.I have a field in the [FORM] called [GROSS REFUND] and a field in the [SUBFORM] also called [GROSS REFUND].I want the value of [FORM].[GROSS REFUND], if the value is not zero, to be copied into a new record on the [SUBFORM.[GROSS REFUND].
I have a main form that has some sub forms on it linked by master child on PK. When I select a new record on the sub forms I want to take a date value from the main form and populate the value into a field in the sub form. How do I do this as I cannot see a new record event on the sub form?
I am using Access 2010.Most of the time a tenant pays his exact rent. When that happens, I currently type in the payment (taken form the Rent field) and date of payment (current date) into a form. The date should not change.
I would like to place a checkbox into the form. If checked, the rent would be entered into the payment field and payment date (current date) would be entered automatically. Otherwise, I would just enter in the payment and date manually.
I have prepared a table in a database which includes a yes no box to one of the fields.
The idea of the yes/no field is that this is recording if the record is awarded. What i would like to achieve is that if the yes no box is checked "True" i would like to be able to copy some of the data from this table into a new table and that the form associated with this table opens up to enable the user to populate the remaining fields.
I believe i need to run this as an on click event procedure but cannot identify the code to enable the data to be copied accross to the other table.
I have a simple data entry form on which there are about 30 to 40 data fields to be update by users. One of the field is called "Stage" which is a combo box with 2 entries "Formal Case" and "Informal Case" with no default value whien a form is first opened.
Users will normally create a data entry which updates the table and save.
However if in future users open any one existing record and try to change Stage field from Informal to Formal or vice a versa I would then like this action to
1) update a time stamp concatinated with the stage change value in a text field perhaps
2) save/close the form
3) open a new form with all the existing entries(plus changed status of "Stage Field") with a new record ID and new time stamp.
I would like to create a command button on my form that copies values from 5 fields in the current record into a new record leaving all the other fields blank except for the new record ID.
The fields that contain the data that I want copied into a new form are:
How can I get the value from a field in one table (in the sub form) to copy/insert into a field in another table (in the main form) when adding a new record?The main form and sub form are linked using parent/child linking, and the sub form is in a tab.I have table A (Visit Dates) in the main form which is used to record the date of a visit to a church. Table B (Quarters and Peals) is used to record an event that took place at that church during that visit. Note that not all visits in table A require a record to be created in table B - but half or more do.
In tables A and B I have a field called "QuarterOrPealID" and these are both primary keys, though the field in table B is set to 'no duplicates' and in table A it's set to 'duplicates allowed', as table A has its own auto number/pk. They are both linked in the relationships.
So, when I add a new record to table A using the main form, I might then need to click on the tab in the sub form to create a new record in table B, which has to be linked to the same record in table A. When the "QuarterOrPealID" auto number/pk is generated in the sub form (table B), I need that value to update to the "QuarterOrPealID" field of the main form (table A), so that when I'm viewing these records the form pulls all the information nicely together.
I have built a database using Access 2010 using the 'web' format for the forms, reports and tables.
This has been fine so far as I have been using macros for my clickonevents.
However I now need some functionality not available in the web forms macro expression builder. Namely Openquery, (it is not on the available list). I therefore want to copy my forms formatting and properties to a normal non-web form allowing me to enter vba code.
Is there no way of doing this though - will I have to redesign the form again from scratch?
The underlined part (acCmdRecordsGoToNew) is false part of this code, because it copies the Adress Info to a new record, instead of copying it in the same.
-Is there someone that can help me with this problem, to make the copy-button in the Form run properly?
-Are there other options to achieve te same?
I have put in a attachment, to give you guys a visual example of what I mean.
hi! I've a question.. I've a form with two fields (min and max). How can I copy those two fields in another form and generate a list of values that are between min and max?? the two form and the data are not linked with tables..
I thank you in advance for considering this inquiry.
From within a Form.field (based on a master table query), I desire to trigger two events; one before update and one after update.
This function will serve to document specific form.field value changes to a "log" table for review prior to being committed back to the master table.
What I'm looking for are functions, which I can use in a Macro or VBA code to facilitate a field read and copy before change and a read and copy after change triggering.
I have been tasked with creating a tool to analyse mobile phone bill data and present the analysis, and our recommendation, to a customers. Being new to Access (other than basic tuition) this has been a slow uphill task, which is finally nearing completion, however there is a problem which I have not yet been able to overcome.
The requirement is for the DB to open first on a splash screen (lets call it Form A) with fancy picture where our customer is selected from a combo box, the customer is then telephoned, a linked computer screen is established and our staff then click "Go" to proceed to a second form (Form B) showing an account overview and more details.
The problem I have is when "Go" is clicked, the second form loads via on click event, and even populates the correct customer in its combo box. Unfortunately that is as far as it gets - the combo does not look up the information. The customer needs to be selected again for the subforms and subreports to load with the customer overview. To clarify, form B just sits there blank until the customer is re-selcted from the combo box in form B.
This is actually a rephrase of the scenario I posted in the other thread yesterday.
I have a form, titled "Danish", now i wan to make a copy of it, i.e, its textboxes, buttons and save the new form as "English". How can i perform ALL of the above in coding?
If I have a form based on 1 table and want to create an almost identical form based on the same table, how do I do it? I need to delete only 5 fields from 1st form and then add 5 different fields. All fields for both forms would be in the same table upon which they are based.
