HI all, Im fairly new at Access, nut ive been given the task of creating an appointment scheduling form, so that we can schedule a client for an appointment via this form.
The idea i had in mind was to use a calendar to query the appointments table so that we can view all appointments for any particular day.
any suggestions?
I'm putting together a Customer Management dbase, in Access 07, and one of the tables is dedicated to scheduling (and the outcome) of customer appointments.
The tables I'm hoping to get a solution for are:
1: Customer Master Data (parent): contains fields such as Name, Address, Phone #, email etc
2: Appointment Master (child): there are 4 Appointment tables/queries, one for each of the available product groups, and contain such fields as Product Type, Lead Source, Lead Status, Appointment Date, Appointment Time, Sales Rep, Appointment Comments
What I am trying to do is find a solution as described below:
1: When the appointment is created the appointment is then pushed into Outlook 07; along with various customer information from the Customer Master table
2: OR is there an appointment/scheduling calendar, preferably with the same look/feel of outlook, available that forms part of the access 07 dbase? This is probably the preferred solution.
I am trying to create a command button in Access to generate a Meeting Invite. I found code for creating an Appointment and it works great but cannot get it to invite attendees.
Private Sub AddAppt_Click()
On Error GoTo AddAppt_Err
' Save record first to be sure required fields are filled.
[Code].....
I have a module in my database that creates an appointment based on a table of sessions. The module works in all respects, except two:
1) When I declare optional attendees it sometimes shows them as required attendees in the actual meeting in outlook, but not always
2) The .Send method does not seem to work. It creates the appointment on my calendar as the originator of the appointment, but does not send to the other recipients.
Below is the code:
Code:
Private Sub SchedOutlook()
Dim rsEmployee As DAO.Recordset
Set rsEmployee = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Select * FROM Employee INNER JOIN tblSession ON Employee.EmpID = tblSession.EmpID;", dbOpenDynaset)
Dim rsMentor As DAO.Recordset
[Code] ....
I currently can send emails from my form in Access 2000. What I would like to do is send from the form an appointment that would go into the recipients calendar in outlook. I would like for this to happen when someone checked a specific yes/no box and pick up the date needed field on my form as the calendar date in outlook. Right now when the yes/no box is selected it automatically generates a email. Any suggestions out there?

Allen
Here is my problem. I am hoping that someone here can be my hero on this one.
I am trying to figure out what would be the best possible way to track my hospital's staffing. I need a form that I can click on the Active X calendar and have it populate the staffing table. I have built the code and it works great.
The problem is that the way the code works now, I have to have a field in my table for every single date scheduled. For example, right now, I have the staffing table like this:
Name
Date Scheduled
Date Scheduled1
Date Scheduled2
Date Scheduled3
Of course, after a month, an employee will have worked more than four shifts. I really don't want to add a field for every shift they could have worked because then, after a month, I'll have thirty date fields, and after a year, I'll have 365. So, do you have any ideas about how I can do this without having 365 date fields?? Thank you! If you can help me figure this out, you are my hero.

how i could create a form that cancels an appointment i guess through a query..
View 4 Replies View RelatedI created a form for scheduling appointments on access 2013 using a youtube tutorial. I got most of it work apart from the combo box that functions in a way that once the time slot has booked with a client it should no longer be shown in the list.
E.g.:-2/2/2014 10:00AM is already booked with a client
The combo box should no longer display the 10:00 AM timeslot but can be shown on other days
Below is the VBA code that i typed out. How to create the code to make the combo box work in that manner.
Option Compare Database
Private Sub cboTime_Enter()
Dim i As Date, n As Integer, oRS As DAO.Recordset, sSQL As String
Dim dLowerbreak As Date, dUpperBreak As Date, dDuration As Date
Dim dLowerPrecision As Date, dUpperPrecision As Date
cboTime.RowSourceType = "Value List"
[Code] ....
I found out that the combo box does not work like it does in the video i.e the option does not dissaspear even though their has been a booking with that time slot with another client.
Coding that is required to make the combo box work like that or is their an error within the code that is preventing the combo box to work in such manner ...
Hi all, I'm just starting on a new project to create a scheduling database for a small company (about 20 people). What i aim to do is to edit calander entries (Month view) and view calander entries hopefully using a control that looks as much like Outlook as possible again this would hopefully show what these 20 people are doing over the month.
My question is: Can you use outlook to do this, or would you have to use a control and does anyone know what/how to use this control.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

HI All....
I have a question which I believe I may already know the answer to but Here it goes. I am trying to create a db that can track and employee shift schedules. I have 28 employees and we work 24X7 so we have 3 shifts, days, evenings and night. I cant seem to get my head around how I would create it. I have tried like 10 different ways but I keep running into Form limits. They want to be able to schedule for the whole year out by month. I have attached a sample of what they want it to look like. If anyone knows of anything out there or could assist me in at least a correct starting point, I would be forever in debt to you.
Thank you for taking the time to read this post and I look forward to hearing from you.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a room scheduling example or a tutor site. I originally wanted to use Outlook but my boss, after seeing another Acces Project I did, asked for it in the Access. I can build a basic data base on a daily basis showing rooms against hours, but my problem is forward scheduling eg "every Thursday meeting room 1 will be for Group A" etc. Can anyone please get me started - I'm tearing my hair out on this one!
Thanks in advance.

Hi
I'm creating a medical journal for privat home use.
Is there anyone that know about a free appointment scheduler preferable in Access 2003 format?
Or how should I solve this?
Mikael
DOes anyone have any examples that they are willing to post or links about how to build an appointment book in Access? I have tried google but I cant seem to find useful links.
Thanks.
I am looking for some scheduling software to meet the following requirements:
The ideal requirements for a new scheduling tool would be:
•More robust than LaunchPad, but less complicated that Maestro
•ability to initiate specific Access macros (not using an autoexec macro) REQUIRED
•must provide detailed audit logs to show success or failure of each job REQUIRED
•ability to monitor shares for files or file changes
•Networked version for shared access?
•Must be controlled from within the team
Does anybody have any suggestions?
Thank you.
;)
Hello Guys:
I need help creating a small Access Database to be able to make Schedules for Conference table Meetings. I am hoping to find an example, or if someone could please direct me to the right place where it’s been done before in Access 2000!?
I was asked to use this Calendar: (“Calendar Control 9.0”) because all my co-workers have this Active X Control, which has Dates but not Time in and Out. I need to add Time or think of some other general Control, to add to this Database along with the Date Calendar.
What my co-workers would like to do is to go inside the Database > choose their Name > pick a Date in a Calendar > pick a Time to RESERVE the meeting > place/ location, etc.
The only thing right now I have is a Table for the Users, and I also need to figure out how to place it in the DB for other people to select their name and precede with other options.
I need to make the DB recurring (like Outlook), notifying (e-mailing) of weekly Staff Meetings, for EX: every Wednesday for next months. So that next time, when somebody goes into the Database, they can see what Time slots are taken or Available on the Calendar. We tried this with Outlook, but it didn’t work due to the Conference table not being customized and not listed in the Company address List. Don’t mean to make it confusing - basically Outlook seems to be out of the question for my Group, therefore I was asked to look into Access :) .
I don’t even know where to start. Can someone please help me modify this or I would be glad if you provide an Example for me to visualize where to start? In this Calendar, people want to be able to choose Hours. In addition, I need help with aesthetics for the Database tables, queries, forms/ Switchboard.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks a bunch in advance,
Beginner:confused:
Dear Access Expert.
I would like to create a Scheduling database for employees. The database would include:
- list all of the employees
-tabs to look at schedule for this week, 1 week from now, 2weeks from now, 3 weeks from now, long term (1-2 months), etc
-small comment section within each day for the guys to enter some comments...e.g. dentist at 10, holidays, etc
There has to be something like this already out there that I can modify and work with. Is there anything like this already in the NorthWind Database that comes with Access? What about some free examples Access developers made?
What about Outlook? Can I modify Outlook and use VBA somehow to accomplish this? Outlook is basically on an account basis so I don't know if I could tailor it to my 30+ employee database.
Thank you very much for your input.

Hello All
I am in need of a lot of help. The situation is as follows I have a table with users that have certain classes that they have to take and in another table I have the dates that these classes are offered. My problem is I want to find a way to map all the students to their required class by scheudling them into the required classes taking into account date conflicts and classes required before taking a certain other classes. I guess my question is if there is any possible to do this in access without me phyically having to schedule each users required classes to the correct time making sure there are no date conflicts. Any help would be highly appreciated because we are talking about 3000 users that need to have schedules and that is extremly time consuming if I have to sit here and do the schedule for each user. Thank you in advance for your time
I need to make a random schedule every week. I have a new DB that I have attached and the current one being used that was built by some one else. The reason for building the new one is I could not figure out what to change to add a new section/Area for scheduleing.
What I have are 3 levels of auditors
Level 1 are the basic auditors which I will need 1 per shift per day
Level 2 Are operationl Auditors I will need 2 of the per week
Level 3 are management auditors and I need one of those per week.
When I get these compiled per week I will need to make a report to e-mail out.
I attached both DB's the old one to show what I need, and the new for a more stripped down and easier to update version.
Good Day everyone,
I am looking at setting up appointments and having Access automaticly schedule the next appointment in either 6 months or a year depending on the Vender. I've search the forum and can't find anything.
For Example if their last appointment was 12-1-05 I would like access to automaticly schedule the next appoint 12-1-06.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Hello,
I have a problem to solve using ACCESS 2007. I have an 'appointments' table and a calendar. So far as I click on any date on the calendar it is supposed to show me the appointments for that specific date on the form (this info is gotten through the 'appointments' table which has the date for each appointment). Appointments have to be separated by a 20 minute difference (8:00am, 8:20am, 8:40am, and so on....). I have to have about 30 spaces or appointments to be filled up per day.
So overall, the customer wants to have 30 spaces (already filled up with the times) so he could fill out the rest of the appointments info in each needed space as he sets up appointments.
Do I have to create 30 records for each day? How would I do this? What happens with the paces (records) that are not filled? Wouldn't that be a record that is not used (wasted record in the table) ? Is there a more efficient way to do this?
Thank you very much everybody.

Hello, I've searched the forums and all over the web, but I still can't figure out how to solve my problem.
I am creating a contact manager/scheduler. There are several tables in this database but the only ones that are involved with this problem are the following:
Contacts Table (main table stores all the contact info)
Meetings Table (stores all the meetings for all contacts)
The field relating the two tables is ContactID.
I have created a tabbed form allowing the user enter Contact Info, Meetings Info, Call History etc. Entering Meeting Info, is done on a subform and the subform will only display the meetings scheduled for the specific ContactID being modified. So everything works great.
What I am trying to accomplish now is to show the very next appointment for the specific ContactID being modified. Meaning if I'm editing/adding info for a specific ContactID, I would like to display above the subform (maybe in a textbox not sure) the very next meeting scheduled for that contact.
Currently the user can simply browse through the subform (meetings) for that Contact ID, and find the next meeting, but I think it would make it a lot more user friendly if the next meeting would be displayed automatically.
So what I am trying to figure out, is how to parse the Meetings table for the specific ContactId being modified and find a meeting date that is later then NOW() but is also the earliest date from now (hopefully this makes sense). If there is now such date, I would like to display "There is no scheduled meetings" (or something along the lines of that).
How can I accomplish this? Would be through a query?
Hopefully my explaination was clear, and I would appreciate any help, because I have really hit a road block...
Eric
its been a while since i was last on here but i have run into some difficulty with a query
i would like to append some data to a tmp tbl.
i want to get the first appointment of the day for each employee. i have attached the relevant tables and a query that shows the information i need but it also shows more information. i have tried the nim function on the time and was successfull when i only had a few columns but when i added the colum [Items].[tblItems] it showed all the appointments for the day.
what i want to show is the first appointment for each employee.
Hi,
I was wondering is it possible to schedule in windows somewhere to open up my syncfrontend.mdb and then run a routine that i have written inside of that mdb.
The routine is a huge database syncronisation task that needs running every hour, it's all there ready to be run but just need a way to get to it and run it automatically on the hour every hour.
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance
Hi All,
Does anyone know of a good free calendar object that I can dynamically add text too, for a holiday planning database I'm making.
Thank You
