I am trying to find out if there is a way for me to create a table based on a specific month. For example I might select January 2005, I would then want to create a table with all the days of that month included, so that I could then add specific data to each day.
Is there a way that I can simply query the system calendar to do this sort of thing. I have spent quite a lot of time searching through this forum but have had no luck.
I am a novice Access user. The idea is to build a visit tracking database. We are currently using excel to input appointments and outlook for statistics and patient data (as contacts). I am basically doing double the work.
The excel sheet is one week (Mon-Sun), the dates are in the top row; the names of patients are in t/he left-most column. The visit is marked by the name of the therapist. So, if John Doe has a visit from Linda on 08/25/12, there would be a "L" in the cell corresponding to the date and patient. There are also initial visits by the head therapist and there is a letter "IV" in the cell to indicate that.
I know that I can import the contact list from outlook and create a table and I know there's a calendar function.
Is there a way to 1. Create a form that will act as a weekly calendar (with each cell in a column having the same date, indicated in the top row) with connection/sync with outlook? 2. Be able to customize this form: add and delete patients in the left column. 3. Have the form count number of visits (# of total visits, # of total visits after the initial visit). In other words keep statistics of various sorts.
I have created a table for a Gym that shows which classes / activities are on which days. You will notice in the image below that i have assigned Boolean to associate a class with a day of the week.
I now am trying to create a Calendar STyle report that GROUPS all activities by the day they are on. So, for example, see below:
As you can see, all of Monday's activities will appear first (in a group) followed by Tuesdays.
One way I think I could achieve this is by doing a QueryMonday, QueryTuesday...etc so I have dataset or resultsset for each day. Then I could bring into a report, each query as a sub-report. I believe this is overly complex for what i'm trying to achieve. Also, using 5 grouping levels in one report doesn't achieve it either.
I've creating an Access project, which is at an early stage. I'm using Access 2003 with a default file format set to Access 2000.
I've been trying to update a date field within a table using this piece of code from a Calendar form. The Calendar form has a Command Button called cmd_Accept. Its sub routine is shown below. Both variables, dt (date) and fvr_id (field visit report ID) are global.
The code works - too well! Instead of updating the only the target record, it will either update the first record plus the target record or all records with the same date and I cannot understand why this should happen.
[Field Visit Report ID] is unique, being the primary key for the table, tbl_field_visit. It is AutoNumber generated. I've double-checked the table and all entries in [Field Visit Report ID] are unique. All my MsgBOX displays show what I would expect to see.
As you can see, I've also tried doing the same task using SQL - with exactly the same result.
I've been going round and round with this for days. Should I bin this and go down another route, or can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong?
Any help much appreciated.
Private Sub cmd_Accept_Click()
Dim dbs As Database, rst As Recordset Dim strSQL As String
dt = ocxCalendar.Value ' +++++++++++++++++++++ ' Field Visit Report ID now set from another sub routine. Tested and working. ' fvr_id = Form.[Field Visit Report ID] ' +++++++++++++++++++++ ' MsgBox "The Field visit report ID is " & fvr_id, vbOKOnly ' MsgBox "The date is " & dt, vbOKOnly
Set dbs = CurrentDb Set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset("tbl_field_visit") If rst.RecordCount <> 0 Then rst.MoveFirst
MsgBox "fvr_id = " & fvr_id & " Date = " & dt, vbOKOnly Do While Not rst.EOF If (rst![Field Visit Report ID] = fvr_id) Then MsgBox "The Record ID is " & fvr_id, vbOKOnly found = True With rst .Edit !Date = dt .Update .Bookmark = .LastModified End With End If rst.MoveNext Loop rst.Close
' If found Then ' vbButtons = vbOKOnly + vbExclamation ' MsgBox "Record Found! " & " Date = " & dt & " Field Visit Report ID = " & fvr_id, vbButtons ' If rst.RecordCount <> 0 Then rst.MoveFirst ' strSQL = "SELECT tbl_Field_Visit.Date FROM tbl_Field_Visit WHERE tbl_Field_Visit.[Field Visit Report ID] = " & fvr_id ' Me.RecordSource = strSQL ' MsgBox strSQL, vbOKOnly ' strSQL = "INSERT INTO tbl_Books ([Date], VALUES '" & dt & "')" ' strSQL = "UPDATE tbl_Field_Visit SET tbl_Field_Visit.Date = '" & dt & "' WHERE tbl_Field_Visit.[Field Visit Report ID] = " & fvr_id ' MsgBox "strSQL = " & strSQL, vbOKOnly ' dbs.Execute strSQL ' End If
I have a form bound to a table that has a bunch of dates in it. What I want to do, is to be able to have pop-up calendars on the form next to each date field, where the user can select dates from the calendar, then have those dates display on the form, and last but not least, update the date fields in the table.
At the moment, the form I'm working with let's me pick dates from little pop-ups and display the dates, but when I exit the form and then come back into it, the dates are gone! In other words, I'm missing something in the process between the dates displaying onthe form and the dates getting into my table.
If anyone has an idea as to what I might be doing wrong, I wouldappreciate your ideas and suggestions.
Thanks in advance. I don't know where I'd be without this forum!
I'm totaly new to access and outlook applications etc.. What I'm trying to do is link an access table to my calendar in outlook. I can do it but there is one problem it is not importing all the fields. But when I do an export from outlook to access database file all the fields are there.
Can someone help me with this issue?
P.S. I'm using outlook 2003 and connecting to exchange 2002.
writing a query to grab the Fiscal period based on my Fiscal Calendar table. I need to create Month, Fiscal Year, Qtr, and Period columns to match with the dates from the Calendar Table based on the data in the Purchase Orders Summary.
I have attached the database with the calendar and the data set that I am suppose to match it to.how/where to link the two tables together in a query,
I created a call logging/work tracking type Database using SharePoint 2007 lists for the backend and Access 2013 front end for about 60 users and it has been running smoothly for around two years .
We use a shared outlook calendar and I want to be able to pull meetings & appointment information into the database from the calendar so I can assign the meetings out to specific people and keep of a record that they where given the request to attend. I was able to use the import outlook folder to create a linked table and it has lots of great information from the calendar apart from the two most important things you need in a calendar Start_time & End_Time . Is there something I'm missing in regards to these two fields? I assume I'm doing something wrong but I can't figure out what, nor did I have much luck with the Search function on here or google.
This is the list of field names it does import(everything apart from the meeting time and is it a recurring appointment) Importance Icon Priority Subject From Message To Me Message CC to Me Sender Name CC To Received Message Size Contents Created Modified Subject Prefix Has Attachments Normalized Subject Object Type Content Unread
I have a make-table query that pulls all the fields from 1 table (MainTable), and creates a new table with a date stamp based apon a form value entered (New Table = MainTableWithDate).
Currently, I setup the query to pull info from the form field like this:
DateField: [Forms]![frmmain]![DateField]
However, when the make-table query is done - all date fields are blank (all other fields are correctly created), and when I look at the new created table (mainTableWIthDate), the typeassigned to the date field is "Binary" (in the form, I've specified LongDate).
I have three tables that contain different columns but linked by a primary column call Name. I want to create a table where all these different columns in the three tables join to form a master table which can be updated regularly either through the master table or the smaller tables. The master table also has the primary column as Name.
If I update the master table with records, it should update the respective linked table and vice versa. I also want to link these tables to my SharePoint site.
Note: except the Name column, none of these tables have any other columns in common How do I go about this?
Here is what I am trying to do: I have form, and a table which is created from this form. The data is entered a second time using the form to make sure there are no discrepancies.
Any easiest way to implement this? (create a new table (which is duplicate), and then compare them?
MP No (Primary key), Sales, Date Entry, Specs, Email
The second Table is as follows:
MP No, Quantity, Description, DWG, Price
There is a "one-to-many" relationship between the two tables through the MP No field so whenever I go to the first table there is a sub-table for each MP No. Correct?can I create an extra sub table under the sub table already created?
I'm a relative newbie to the more advanced features available to Access.
If someone could help me or point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.
I have one table that contains companies and associated contact info. Each company can have more than one unique number ID (3 digit alphanumeric).
I want to take this table and run a query to create a new table that will only have one instance of each company name, along with the other contact information. The unique ID's aren't needed in this table (but it would be great if I could somehow toss them in, too).
This new table would then be used to create a form with a combo box containing all of the names to quickly jump to their contact info.
Any and all help would be appreciated. If a query isn't the best avenue for this, then please point me in that direction, too.
I'm not sure if I've picked the right forum topic for this... It's not a straightforward table question, and I think the only way I can do what I need is with a query of some sort. Apologies if it should have gone in 'Tables'...
The situation is: I'm creating a database (using Access 2003) in which our secretaries can enter exam marks for students. The difficulty is that there are ten papers (exams), each student's exam is marked by at least two examiners and there are at least 6 examiners per paper. Every examiner also marks more than one paper, but doesn't mark all papers.
So, I've got a table with all of the examiners and the papers they're marking and I've got a table with all the students and the papers they're taking. Because we have to enter the marks in such a way that we know both which mark an examiner gave and (obviously) which mark a student received (e.g. so we can look at statistics for each examiner), I thought the best way to do this would be to run a query that created a new table per paper in which the field names would be: Student_ID, <name of examiner 1 for the paper>, <name of examiner 2 for the paper>, <name of examiner 3 for the paper>, etc until the end of the list of examiners for that paper. The student's number would populate the Student_ID field and then the secretaries would enter each examiner's mark in their named field. Like this:
| Student_ID | A.N. Other | J. Blogs | J.Q. Public | Agreed_Mark | 1234A 72 74 73 2345B 65 68 67 3456C 71 73 72 4567D 52 51 52
Listing the name of every examiner (including those who aren't marking that particular paper) isn't an option (and would have to be hard coded into a table in any case, as far as I'm aware, either in a query or in a table design. This is something I'm loathe to do). Ideally, the secretary would be able to press a button on a form and have all the mark entry tables for all the papers created automagically.
The examiners for the different papers change every year, and not every academic marks exams every year, so this data will not remain static. Hard coding a table with examiner names would make more work for the secretaries. (I want to avoid this as all mark entering for all students is done in a single day. This means over 600 students at 3 marks per student [mark 1, mark 2, and final agreed mark] with time to contact examiners with questions... and only 2 secretaries, each of whom deals with a different section of students).
Because of the nature of the marking, it would also make quite a lot of work for the secretaries if we had to cross reference a generic Examiner_1 field with a different examiner for each paper, so the field name really must be the examiner's actual name.
Can anyone help me? I'm happy to do it with either VB or SQL; I'm not a programmer, but I can usually work out what code does even if I can't write it myself. I should be able to adapt anything presented as long as it's complete and doesn't assume that I know the basics. :) I've also got two reference books to hand: _Microsoft Access 2003 Forms, Reports and Queries_ by Paul McFedries and _How to Do Everything with Microsoft Office Access 2003_ by Virginia Anderson.
I split my db to front-end and back-end. 20 users are using the database. But now I have the problem: In my admin front-end db I created a new table and some reports to the table, but this new table I have only in my front-end db and it doesnot appeares in back-end db - so that other users has no data in hte report for the new table. How I can create new table to be in back-and table too?
I have a running application which I created in excel. Each time a new copy of the excel sheet is worked with, I need to create a new table in an access database, that holds part of the data coming from excel.
Can you explain, or can you point me to a manual that I can read that explains how to do this ?
I have a dilemma. I need my app to print out legally binding property schedules for insurance purposes. A property can have any number of schedules created during a year according to how many changes are made. My instinct is to use a set of nested queries to generate the reports and then save them as snapshots should they need to be referred to later (they will!!). However I have just been wondering if I should create a new table that gets populated with the full data for each property schedule when one is printed so that there is a definitive and tangible record for each schedule. The latter seems like not good practice within Access as I know it but I have this niggling hunch that it might be the right approach for this app. On the lazier note it would also make re-creation or subsequent investigation very much easier than having a whole sequence of horribly dynamic queries! Does anyone have anything similar (sure someone does) and what did they do? Thanks for any input
I'm trying to create a table that automatically contains records for every permutation of the two foreign keys it imports. Let me explain with an example:
I have a Characters table: CharacterID (Primary Key) CharacterName CharacterClass [...]
And, I have a Skills table: SkillID (Primary Key) SkillName SkillDescription [...]
I want a third table named CharacterSkills to combine those two tables. It might look like this: CharacterID (Primary Key) SkillID (Primary Key) CharacterSkillSlot [...]
That looks a lot like a junction table for a many-to-many relationship. The difference is I want this table automatically filled with every combination of Characters and Skills. For example, if I have three characters and five skills this table would contain fifteen records. If I add a fourth character I'd expect this table to grow by another five records (as one record per skill is automatically added).
Here are those same tables with some example data.
Hello: I have a "create table" statement as an action for one of my command buttons (on a form) within my access db. I can create a yesno field with no problem, my question is - how within the same "create table" statement or otherwise with code can I make the yesno field appear as a checkbox?
I can do it within the design view of the table once the table is created, but I want to do it on the fly. Also, I don't want to do this within a form, just on the table itself.
I am trying to create a database for estimating manhours on projects. There is a setup table with two columns: "Project" and "Time Period". The database is supposed to allocate manhours to tasks on projects, which is used in estimating man hour costs and also forecasting labour resource requirements.
For example, say the database is used for "Project X" and "Project Y" projects, with Project X running from Jan to March and Project Y running from Aug to Dec. The setup table would look like this:
PROJECT TIME PERIOD Project X Jan Project X Feb Project X March Project Y Aug Project Y Sept Project Y Oct Project Y Nov Project Y Dec
From this table, I need to automatically create a new table for each unique project that allows man power to be allocated to each time period. Following on with the example, there are two unique projects, so two tables need to be automatically created with column headings as per below:
Project X table: FUNCTION PERSON JAN FEB MARCH
Project Y table: FUNCTION PERSON AUG SEPT OCT NOV DEC
"Function" is a description of a role, for example engineer. "Person" is the individual undertaking that role, for example Bob Jane. Then in each time period a number between 0 and 1 would be entered corresponding to how much time (0 is no time, 1 is full time) that person would be spending on that function for that time period. Then the table would be populated with many functions and people in this manner.
So the number of tables automatically created depends on how many unique projects there are in the "Project" field of the setup table. The number of columns in these tables will be atleast two: "Function" and "Person", plus another column for each time period defined for that project.
Perhaps something can be done with a make-table query, but all I can get that to do is copy data from one table straight into another table.
a ER programm gives the following output to an sql code, which it pretends it should be for Access 97. Till now I haven't found an idea of how to create a table using the SQL statement CREATE. As a matter of fact it returns me an error of Create statement or something, even if I tried any available query form.
