Ok, firstly im sorry if this is in the wrong forum. I say this because my problem first begins with the tables but then i need to sort a problem out with the form aswell, but i will put it in here.
Here is the problem. Im sorry if im not too clear with this.
I need to create a register system E.G. A child comes into a club, he is registered. At the end of the session the child leaves the club. His depature is registered and his departure time is also recorded down.
Like a paper based school register but electronically.
How would I go about implementing this into a system?
Would I need a child table (with fields such as Child ID, Forename, Surname etc.) and a register table (not sure on the fields)?
k, this bit below probably goes in the forms section...
How would I get this to work on a form so there were boxes to check for arrival and departure, and when a button is clicked the depature time is filled in for each day of the term?
Does anyone know how to go about this or know previous thread stating how to go about this?I have a Follow-Up labeled Text Box (Short Date) and I want for the associate to be able to set a desired follow-up date and for the account to disappear from the list afterwards till the follow-up date expires and it becomes viewable again.Any suggestions?
I need a query run that brings up a list of customers that need maintence after 6 months after their last maintence service. As soon as you open the DB, the event/query runs and if there are any customers past due to display them. And if there are none, to not even show the query at all.
I have very little experience with timers and if/then statements and don't know how to set this up.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I'm trying to create an invoice system with a sub-form within the main form. The issue I'm having is that the data in the sub-form keeps getting overwritten each time a new record is created for the main form. So when I go back to edit an older record, the data in the sub-form is changed to whatever the latest record had in it. Is there a way to lock in the data in the sub-form so that it stays with it's own record?
I have a need to convert the export of an Access report to an ASCII file.
The export needs to have a specific format - described below:
Field Position | Field Length | Field Name | Field format
1-6 | 6 | Member # | text - right justified 7-12 | 6 | Trans Date | YYMMDD 13-15 | 3 | Pay code | Alpha/ NUM - Left 16-26 | 11 | Amount | -9999999.99 (*) 64-71 | 8 | Check # | Right
general comments and questions:
This report needs to interface with some sort of transaction accounting system - No Idea what it is, but this format of the report will interface.
The field positions go from 1 to 73. I need only supply the data above, so the check # is way out of sequence. Do I need to have the space inbetween "Amount" and Check Number in the report? Will a simple text file work with all the fieds together? or will I need the space in there? Is there a way to design a report in an ASCII format in access?
Specific Questions
I think I need to change the format of the amount and date fields. I am currently using the short date format 8/30/04, but need to return the date as YYMMDD - 040830. How can I change this format to reflect the ASCII format. The form is also set with the default "=Date()" so the user doesn't have to enter the date everytime - it can also be edited for older data. I would like the date to appear the way it is on the form 08/30/04 but get entered to the table as 040830. Is there a way to do that?
The amount field is odd - I'll include the exact criteria that is desired:
"All Amount Fields must be right justified and space filled. If the amount is a credit, show the "-" sign at the beginning of the number. Payment should be entered as positive amounts. If zero, assign the fied as 0.00 (space filled)"
Is this just a mask that needs to be added? Currently, The field shows $7.00 when 7 is entered to add cent, you must type in 7.50, tab will put in the "$". I need to get rid of the $ and space fill the field?
I have our primary web based inventory system that I am exporting to Excel and using this as an import to Access for the main raw data for my database. This being inventory it changes daily so I am updating this table every day. When I try to append the table it ads all the records. I am wanting an easy way to add only the new records/take out the ones that are no longer there. Basically update the table with what is currently there.The only have I have found to do this is by running non-matching queries and update queries.
Help! I am trying to think of a way I can use an excel worksheet as a data form in Access. A little background to the problem. A pre-school that I have been helping have a excel spreadsheet in place that they use as a kind of booking register which also works out the termly costs for each child based on the number of sessions attended. Is there any way I can inport or link this to a database so monthy invoice's and goverment figures can be printed automatically.
I am creating a new database system for my cadet organisation, and I am in the early stages of learning how to use Access. (I am using this as a learning curve, as I need to get to grips with Access for University, there's no better way to learn than by doing.)
I want a system that stores the attendance of cadets on each night we meet, so far I have:
|Table| Cadets CadetID - AutoNumber (PK) FName - Text LNAme - Text Flight - Lookup from Flight Table
|Table|Flights FlightID - AutoNumber (PK) Flight - Text
|Table|Attendance AttendanceID - AutoNumber (PK) Attendance Type - Text
The table that actually contains the register I am unsure how to structure, it would have to contain Cadet Name/ID, the date and Attenance type, from attendance DB.
The table would be updated every Tuesday and Thursday, when we meet. I've been thinking for a while about how to do this and can't find a good solution.
As the data will be entered by a user (who won't know Access from Adam) I'd like a form that lists all the cadets in the Cadet table, as each of these will have to be registered, and then a drop down box listing the options from the Attendance table next to each cadet, doesn't have to be drop down, can be optionbutton, image....
In the final version I would like the cadets to be sorted by flight in the form, but lets not go mad yet!
Can anyone help me with this? Or am i simply being silly?
I haven't used Access for long, but have used VBA in Excel before and am a fairly experienced user; I will attempt anything but bare with me if at first I don't succeed.
I just recently bought a new computer and it doesn't have any Microsoft Office products installed. So, I pulled out my old Office97 CD and tried to install it. However, I got the following message:
htmlmarq.ocx was unable to register itself in the system registry.
I am considering creating a form to use as a cash register or simple POS system. Where I could start looking into this? are there any templates or sample code I could refer to? Using access 2003 version...
Hi guys i wrote a vba code that supposed to go find all non system tables in access 2000 db and generate corresponded create table statements for them. Unfortunately when i run the program it misses one of the tables called committee members and also uses one of table names 2 time.Furthermore, instead of using table names it uses first columns of each table in generating table name for createing table statement.I be happy if some expert help me fix this bug in my vba program.Thanks

I’m a travelling music teacher. So my many pupils are split into many small groups (of 1, 2 or 3 pupils).
What I want is to open a form with lesson details. I’d select a date and then a group and then the details of the pupils in that group would come up (probably in a subform). I could then enter data for each pupil for each lesson e.g. whether they were absent.
i'm try to create a database to record staff sign in and out times and to get reports but i cannot for the life of me get it working after many many efforts. can any one help me?
ok basically im creating a quote system that will show users prices from one destination to the other destination based on the size of the vehicle..
you can see a similar quote system used on the following website.. http://www.londonairporttaxi.co.uk
there will be three main tables..
Airport Table airportID - primary key, autonumber airportNAME - text
the airport table will consist of 5 records..Heathrow,Gatwick,Stansted,London City, Luton
Town Table TownID - primary key, autonumber TownNAME - text
the town table will contain a list of postcodes, maybe 50 or so (n1,n2,n3,n4,e1,e2...)
Car Table CarID - primary key, autonumber CarNAME - text
the car table will consist of 4 records..Saloon,Estate,MPV,Executive
now what i need to do is create a similar quote system like there is on the url above..
my original idea would be to do something like this..
Have three tables that contain the quotes for each type of car..the first two listed here will work i think..
Airport2TownQuotes Table quoteID - primary key, autonumber carID - foreign key from car table airportID - the airport Pickup, foreign key townID - the town Destination, foreign key price - currency
Town2AirportQuotes Table quoteID - primary key, autonumber carID - foreign key from car table townID - the town Pickup, foreign key airportID - the airport Destination, foreign key price - currency
however.. for airport to airport quotes.. the resembling table would look something like this..
Airport2AirportQuotes Table quoteID - primary key, autonumber carID - foreign key from car table airportID - the airport Pickup, foreign key airportID - the airport Destination, foreign key price - currency
but you cannot place the airport id twice in the same table..(this maybe a case of simply renaming the airport fields in this table such as airport1, and airport2.. but can you still link them and enforce integrity if the fields have different names?)
also one example may be Heathrow to n1 is £30... this does not mean however that n1 to heathrow will be £30.. this is why i need to separate the quotes in this way.. for the 3 possible journeys (airport to airport, town to airport, airport to town).. also the quotes will be different for each car type..
anyway.. i shall be using asp to create a similar quote system on my website.. but i just need to get the final layout of the database sorted.
I am building a student register for a school for disabled children. There is a screen listing all students, one showing detailed student data chosen by #=IIf(IsNull([ID]),"(New)","Open")# clicking on "Open", one listing all the guardians, choosing a guardian by #=IIf(IsNull([ID]),"(New)","Open")# clicking on "Open", to diaplay Guardian details.
From the student list, I select and view student details, including a pointer to their guardian details. After selecting the first student details, and then viewing their guardian data, any subsequent student details and guardian details updates the prior guardian data with the next guardian's data.
How can I prevent the successive guardian details from updating the prior guardian table when it is exited? I view the guardian details using ADO recordsets populating a form. When I exit, it updates the previous record.
I have a work order system that people use but it somewhat randomly puts blank records into my table. I've added a lot of validation checks when submitting, closing and resetting the form and limited the way people can exit out of the form to fight this issue but it still happens.
I tried to post this yesterday but it didn't go through for some reasons.
I've attached my database that contains student, classes, and couple other tables. I also created couples of forms and I wanted to register a single student to multiple classes at once.
For example: There're 3 classes (Math, English, History) on 1/3/2006. Student A wants to register 2 classes, Math and English. I should be able to check those two and submit and I'm done.
Currently, I have to select Math and assigns to student A, then select English. That's not good at all. What if there're 10 classes in one day and a student just want to register 8 classes? I have to do eight times.
It'd be great if you could help me. Thank you in advance. Isabel
I'm interested to know how I can select a (1) student and assigns to multiple classes.
Attached I have the database with some tables and forms. Please take a look. I can assign a student to a class, on a specific day but I couldn't figure out how to select multiple classes at once.
I have a drawing register database which notes the revisions for all drawings issued. One drawing can be revised several times so I have a details table which notes the revision letter, date issued and the notes for each revision. Using this table I created a max date query to show the latest issue date and revision for each drawing. This query is used for a transmittal form for issuing drawings. Both the form and report is working perfectly.
The TBLTransmittal consists of the following fields ContractName IssueDate SubSup DwgNo (multi-value checkbox)
Using the TBLDwgRegisterDtls or the query QRYDtldDwgReg (which includes the drawing titles) I would like to create a query that would look up the latest revision at the date of issue and show the revision letter.
I started a query combining TBLTransmittal and TBLDwgRegisterDtls and in the criteria for DateIssued of the TBLSDwgRegisterDtls (which is when the drawing was issued by the architect to the contractor) I put "Not > [IssueDate]". This is filtering the information to show revisions issued up to the date we (the contractor) issued the drawing to our sub-contractor but I need now to pull the max revision only from this information.
Before I go I will give you an example of what I want from the end result
Drawing BK2-02 rev. D was issued by the architect to the contractor on July 17th. This drawing was in-turn issued to our sub-contractor (Sub "A") this Saturday, August 9th. The same drawing was revised this morning and rev. E was issued to Sub "A" today, August 11th.
I want the end report to show that Sub A received Rev. D on 09-08-14 and Rev. E on 11-08-14.
I'm wondering if another max date query on this new query would work? I'll try and see what happens.
I've got a database that allows all users to review an address register. If they find errors or mostly get updated information they have another form they can fill out to make the recommended changes. Only I have access to the main DB to make the change permanent.
The question I have is there a way for Access to send me a notification that someone has requested the change?
I know that sending an email is doable - in Access. However, that's not an option for our network here. I was thinking something along the command prompt "Net Send" command. However I've not been able to get that to work by itself - let alone within Access...
I have used VB code in the past to store what PC is using the database, I could modify that to alert me whenever I open the DB up from my PC. But I was trying to get away from having to open this particular DB up every day and check for changes.
How do I create a table that can cross index items in another table. Maybe I am not using the right terms here so let me show a small example.
Say I have a tables of words. tblWords numWordID txtWord
Then I have some entries, all more or less synonyms of each others fresh new clean
Now I want to create a cross-index table, related to the table "tblWords" where I can select synonyms from words already in the table "tblWords", so if I for the word "fresh" add "new" and "clean" as synonyms or entries, if I then go and look at the word "new" it will already have the synonyms "fresh" and "clean", likewise the entry "clean" will then have the synonyms "fresh" and "new".
Kind of a many to many relationship junction table but only with one table!
I hope my explanation have not been to confusing, but let me know if you need a clarification.
Hi, I ve got an access db thats attached to a java application. I need to be able to create a temporary table that stores a result set, its necessary to do this as the java app needs to perform lots of repeated operations on this temp table.
I was think something like this would work:
DROP TABLE tempResults CREATE TABLE tempResults AS SELECT col1, col2, col3 .... FROM orginalTable
So i tried this:
Create table temptable AS SELECT education, FROM supermarketTable;
but it doesnt work, access complains about syntax error in create statment.
what i am trying to do is have something create a new table. It could either be when a check box is clicked. but preferably when a name is entered into a text box. i just need the sub command to write. i tried using what access help has: SyntaxCREATE [TEMPORARY] TABLE table (field1 type [(size)] [NOT NULL] [WITH COMPRESSION | WITH COMP] [index1] [, field2 type [(size)] [NOT NULL] [index2] [, ...]] [, CONSTRAINT multifieldindex [, ...]])The CREATE TABLE statement has these parts:Part Description table The name of the table to be created. field1, field2 The name of field or fields to be created in the new table. You must create at least one field. type The data type of field in the new table. size The field size in characters (Text and Binary fields only). index1, index2 A CONSTRAINT clause defining a single-field index. multifieldindex A CONSTRAINT clause defining a multiple-field index but i keep getting an error. if someone could just give me a sample code that i could copy and paste into the code builder to get a simple table with one or 2 coloums i could edit to the specific things i need. i just dont know where to start. thanks for the help.
I think this is a pretty simple thing, but for some reason I'm lost.
I need to add a number of records to a table.
The user would input a starting record number and ending record number (ie 60000, 60003) and access would create those records with the record number field populated with all the values, in other words, it would create 4 records 60000,60001,60002, and 60003
any ideas how this can be done? I'm thinking a query, but it might require coding of a for...next loop???
I have created a database that tracks employee adherence. We have employees monitor adherence and when someone is out of adherence we track the time they are out and also there shift time. I am needing Access to know to change a record from 0:00 (midnight) to 23:59. I know it is probably done with an IF statement but dont know how to write it correctly, or where to place it.
