Forms :: Copying Content Of Previous Field

Jan 26, 2014

I would like the text from the previous field Invoice_Contact copied into the field Invoice_Contact of each new record created. I think I can use CTRL ' - but would like it done automatically if possible.

Field location:
Form = PatientUpdate - Subform = F_Invoice - Field = Invoice_Contact

The form and subform are linked through: Pat_ID

The subform is based on the table called Invoice with Invoice_ID as the primary key.I tried several variations of this DLookup from examples I found on the web but the field comes out with "error" in it and its flashing!

Copying Previous Data (cloning)

Jun 15, 2006

Hi,

i need help regarding copying previous data in a table (as a cloning method).
i have a form with continous records. near each record, a button was created that opens in another form which contains various fields.

in order to facilitate time, i created a button on the second form to be able to copy previous data for the respective records on the first form.

but the problem happens if there are 3 fields all of them have to be filled in to be able to perform the copy operation.

for example:

port = rs!port
vessel1= rs!vessel1
vessel2 = rs!vessel2
rs.movenext
rs.edit

all fields must be filled that is port, vessel1, vessel2...and if only port and vessel1 field is filled, this cannot be copied for the other records.

can anyone give me suggestions about how can i make it in a way that it copies data irrelevant of what fields have been entered.

any help will be much appreciated.

thanks a lot.

Dynamically Update Field Of A Current Record Based On Previous Record

Apr 30, 2007

I need a way to dynamically store a particular value in "field_2" of the CURRENT record depending on whether or not the value of "field_1" of the CURRENT record is identical to the value of "field_1" of the PREVIOUS record within the same table. The table is sorted on "field_1".

So, if the value of "field_1" in the CURRENT record is "ABC" and the value of "field_1" in the PREVIOUS record is also "ABC", then store a value of "PPP" in "field_2" of the current record. IF on the other hand, the value of "field_1" in the CURRENT record is "ABC" and the value of "field_1" in the PREVIOUS record is "XYZ", then store a value of "WWW" in "field_2" of the current record.

I have a report that will use these results to count only the number of records that have a "WWW" in "field_2".

Is this doable, maybe in a query somehow?

I should add that whatever the solution, it needs to be compatible with Access 2000.

Calculating Field Based On Value Of Another Field In Previous Record

Sep 18, 2014

I'm trying to create something like an online banking view that shows the running balance as each transaction occurs. I have tblTransactions with fields AccountNumber, ItemDescription, and TransactionAmount. I'm trying to create something that shows these three fields and a fourth field with the running balance.

So if I initially deposit $100 it will show the first record with TransactionAmount = $100 and RunningBalance = $100. Then the next transaction will subtract the Transactionamount for the new record from the RunningBalance from the previous record to get the RunningBalance for the new record. So if I make a purchase for $2, the AvailableBalance for that record is $98. Is this possible with a query? Here's a picture to describe what I'm talking about ....

How To Retrieve Field From Previous Record?

Sep 8, 2006

Okay, here's the query as simplified as possible:



Month - Days - PreviousMonth



Month and Days are pulled from a table called Calendar. How do I get PreviousMonth to display the Month from the previous record?

I was looking at a ranking formula, and it seems like it compares the field to the previous one, but I am not sure how to apply it to my situation. The ranking formula I was looking at:

(Select Count(*) from Data Where [ProductA1] > [Data1].[ProductA1];)+1



Thanks in advance for the help.

Updating A Field Based On Previous Record

Apr 3, 2008

I'm trying to update an imported table from an excel spreadsheet with missing details. The table's records are in order so I just need to fill in a blank field with data based on the previous one as shown.


ID Name Location
1 Bob London
2 Larry
3 Harry
4 Jerry Glasgow
5 Paul
6 John Southampton


I need to fill in the location blanks simply with the last location details, so records 2 and 3 with London and 5 with Glasgow. Is this easily done or would I need to pull all the data into an array and work on it there?

I've tried searching for an answer but haven't had any luck.

Calculated Field Utilising Data From Previous Record

Sep 14, 2004

Somebody please help me!!!

I am creating a database that will record the details of approx 30 shops and will store information on Annual Turnover, Profit, Return, etc.

I need to create a field that will calculate the increase/decrease in annual turnover between the current year and the previous year.

So far I have created a subform that will show the last 12 years of data for the particular shop, but now I need to add a calculated field that will get the current years turnover and also reference the turnover for the previous year, i.e. the previous record., and display the result. The other thing that I will need to do, is to have this field not calculated for the initial years trading, so this field will need to be hidden in the first record.

Can someone please offer some advice on how to go about achieving this???

Having A Records Calculated Field Get Info From Previous Record

Jan 20, 2007

I have a table (tblStats). The user enters his current weight in a field named Wt. There are 2 other fields in the table named WkLoss and TTDLoss. These two fields are intended to be calculated. What I am trying to do is when the user enters his current weekly weight figure into the Wt field, I want the field WkLoss to get the user's weight from the previous record and place the difference in the field WkLoss. Also I would like to keep a total to date in the TTDLoss field.

So far this has been my attempt.
Code:Public Sub setWeight()Dim rs As DAO.RecordsetDim Startval As DoubleStartval = 190Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("tblStats")'Select records to be updatedSet rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset _("SELECT * FROM tblStats ") rs.MoveFirst Do rs.Edit'field to update rs.Fields("WkLoss") = Startval rs.Update rs.MoveNext'increment step value Startval = WkLoss - Wt Loop Until rs.EOF rs.Close Set rs = Nothing End Sub
All I get is the value 190 placed in the first record and all zeros in the subsequent records. Also I don't have a clue as to how to get the Total To Date field to calculate.

Any help would be appreciated
Thanks for your time.

Modules & VBA :: Copy / Paste Field From Previous Record

Jun 22, 2013

It is a continuous subform (Names: Form = ClientUpdate / Subform = ClientUpdateSub.

All of the data implicated here is direct and in the subform's query table including the button we want to program.

(This is my example but it wont stay in columns in this "post box" )

IDNo App _ID App_Freq App_Date GetDates Action_Date
22 18 56 21-Jun-13 BUTTON 14-Jun-13
21 19 56 16-Aug-13 BUTTON 9-Aug-13

*

The GetDates Command BUTTON should generate the red data above, like:

Private Sub GetDates_Click()

Go to a new record
Go to the field App_Freq and fill it with:
Copy/paste the data from the field of the same name in the previous record
Go to the field App_Date and fill it with:
data based on this calculation using the PREVIOUS record fields: App_Date + App_Freq (which are days)
Go to the field Action_Date and fill it with:
data based on this calculation: App_Date (of current record now filled out - step above), minus 7 (days).
End Sub

That's it!

All the dates format is set to medium date. An error message should come up in case App_Freq is empty, for example

Also note that the data can be manually changed at any time and should not revert to its last calculation. The button only generate data into a new record.

Forms :: Copy Record From Previous Field If No Specific Combobox Value

Oct 30, 2013

I have an access form that needs filling in daily by various people.

It's to document changes to a website and I currently have a combobox box set up for the various sections to state whether they are AMENDS, REVERTS or NO CHANGE.

I have set conditional formatting to then highlight these sections but am also trying to get it to work so that if the user chooses "NO CHANGE" then the data for that field copies over from the previous record.

I have set this up in the AfterUpdate code for the combobox, but nothing is happening, not even an error....

Code:
Private Sub COMBOBOX1_AfterUpdate()
If Me.COMBOBOX1 = 3 Then
Me.[FIELD_TO_CHANGE] = DLookup("[FIELD_TO_CHANGE]", "tb_TABLE", "[ID]=Forms![form_FORM]![ID]-1")
End If
End Sub

(Where 3 is the value of NO CHANGE in the combobox, and FIELD_TO_CHANGE, tb_TABLE and form_FORM being the names of the various elements)...

Forms :: How To Auto Enter Date Of Previous Record Into New Record

Aug 26, 2013

I need to know how to auto enter the date of the previous record into a new record. I have this db for my vehicle log sheets and I submit monthly a claim for the business km from my company. I usually cant remember the date of the previous claim and have to scroll back until I find the field with a date. It will be useful if the date was copied into every new record until I edit the date when I submit the claim. What I ask is during the new month all the dates will be the same until I submit the claim. I do not know how to do this, and yes I have done a search.

Queries :: Evaluating Current Record To Previous Record To Get Counts

Aug 8, 2014

I'm struggling with a query to evaluate current and prior record data. I have a query producing 5000 records. I need to group records by Case ID and compare current date record to previous date record to determine if a team and worker name has changed during the year. I need to count how many times a cases is transferred to and out of a particular team from the beggining of the year. i.e., On 1/1/2014-Team1 has an inventory of 500 cases.

During the month 25 cases are transferred into Team1 and 15 cases are transferred out of Team1. So on 2/1/2014 Team1 begins with an inventory of 510 cases. Throughout the year cases come and go from and to Team1 each month so need to figure out how to create a query to count each change. See attachment displaying how the data is listed and how I invision it to work with the In/out column counts.

Specifically, at the begginig of the year (1/1/14) for case ID 1003 you can see it belongs to Mary in Team1 for January and February. Then in March the case is transferred out and went to Joe in Team 3. So for Mary a "-1" is recorded as a negative count for that Case ID. If later in the year the case is transferred back to Mary a "+1" would be recorded. Respectively evaluated for each of the 5000 records to get a total count for each of the teams by Case ID throughout the year.

I've started with DLookup, tried comparing current month to previous month using DMax. It works as long as I only select one case ID used in a separate query but if I use the whole subset (5000 records) it fails. I can't figure out how to group each set of case IDs and then apply the query.

My attempted query: DLookUp("[Team]","[Team_qry]","[Team_qry]![Date]=#" & CStr(DMax("[Date]","[Team_qry]","[Team_qry]![Date] <#" & CStr([Date]) & "#")) & "#")

Copying The Current Record On A Form To Another Table

Dec 17, 2007

is there an easy way to copy the current record on a form when clicking a command button such that a snapshot of that record is copied to a table for archiving purposes?

the table has about 120 columns so it is cumbersome to write an Insert Into sql statement within VBA code.

what i am attempting should be quite straightforward...i just want to take the current record in its entirety that is from a single table and append it to another table of the same structure.

any help would be appreciated!

Queries :: Add Previous Record Data To Next Record

Apr 11, 2013

I need to add two previous record fields together in a query. I have attached a picture to illustrate.

The "StudyYears" filed is the primary key of the table the data is being pulled from. The zero's are placeholders for the sum of the previous record's data.

RunningBalance is calculated as follows:

Code:
RunningBalance: IIf([a].[StudyYears]=[ReserveParameters]![StartingBalanceYear],CCur([ReserveParameters]![StartingBalance]),0)

Bal is calculated as follows:

Code:
Bal: [AnnualContribution]+[InterestIncome]+[Inflation_Adjusted_Expenditures]

How to go about adding the two together as in the picture?

Is there a way to do this relatively fast, as well as keeping the query updateable?

Copying A Field??

Apr 14, 2006

I didnt know whether to post this here on in the table forum, so sorry if its in the wrong place!!

http://x402.putfile.com/4/10309543998.jpg

http://x402.putfile.com/4/10309512643.jpg

Ok, so in the frist screenshot the green box is based off of the table labelled 3. The red box is comprised of the InvoiceID from table 1, ProductID from table 2 and name/price is drawn from table 3.

The green box is used to view products, the red is an invoice. How do I add the currently viewed product (in this case, a case) to the invoice? I need to copy the product ID from table 3 to table 2. How do I go about this?

Many thanks! :D
