I am trying to put a spreadsheet on a form that will allow me to enter data on the spreadsheet and store the information for each record.
Example: I have patients that I am using a combo box to bring up their name and address information. I want a spreadsheet tied to each patient that I can keep a running total of their payment history. Is this possible and How? Thanks for your help!
I want to create an access spreadsheet form in which the user can add data, which will be - after being processed - added to a database table. The spreadsheet form is for this reason not directly linked to a database table.
In the spreadsheet that I actually have, I manage to copy paste data from an Excel spreadsheet. However, only the first row is pasted. Access doesn't add new record lines for the other rows of my spreadsheet.
How can I make Access add record lines in function of the data on that is pasted? Or if this is not possible, how can I add sufficient additional lines myself?
I'm working on a project where I'm supposed to take an excel spreadsheet and replace it's function with Access. So far I have created the form, table, and query, now I just need the report which (according to my boss) needs to mimic the existing spreadsheet.
I know this is probably not going to be fun, but hopefully somewhere out there can give me a few pointers?
Attached is an example of what the spreadsheet looks like (Capture1) and what I currently have in my report (Capture 2).
I have three objects a Main_Table , ClientDataForm and a MapForm all three share a common ClientID number
From that Main_Table I have created a ClientDataForm form which I enter all Data
From ClientDataForm I wish to create a button on it which runs a Macro that Saves ClientDataForm Record and then populates another form named MapForm with whatever record is currently open in Form One whether a newly created one or previous record.
How would I write this code for that button? Also why I would write it that way?
hello,
I have form "QUOTE" (which has a check box "GenerateOrder") and form "WORK_ORDER". Once I click on "GenerateOrder", I want form "WORK_ORDER" to open, and I want to assign a value from a txtBox in form "QUOTE" to another txtBox in form "WORK_ORDER" creating in this way a new record on form "WORK_ORDER". I want to make clear that as soon as the value is passed or assigned to the txtBox in form "WORK_ORDER", a new record for this form should be created.
I tried this code:
Private Sub GenerateOrder_Click()
If (Me.GenerateOrder.Value = True) Then
DoCmd.OpenForm (WORK_ORDER)
[Forms]![WORK_ORDER]![QID] = [Forms]![QUOTE]![QID] 'assignment
End If
End Sub
but it doesn't work
Thank you very much
I have a form. In that form I want to display a series of dates from a database table..ex. 12/15/2004, 12/16/2005, etc... Next to those dates I want to have a checkbox. The user should be able to click on that checkbox if they want to sign up for that date. So there could be more then 1 checkbox checked, but there will always be atleast 1. So my first question is, how do I make this work. I've tried several things and everytime I check on the checkbox it checks all of the checkboxes.
PLEASE HELP!
Subject 2: Regarding the above question, how do i reference those dates that I've checked the checkbox next to, to put into another table?
PLEASE HELP!
Hi,
I want a user to be able to create a new record in the main form, after they have finished filling in the boxes in a subform by pressing the Enter key, rather than having to click the 'new record' button on the main form.
I reckon I need a 'default button' on the subform but I have no idea what this should do when clicked to create the new record...
Have a form that contains fields AssociatedProject, AssociatedRelease and then the user hits a button to create a new record and a new form opens to display this newly created record which sets the fields and also sets a field called Type. There is no issue with setting the field values and the new record is created. However, when the form opens to display the record it displays another record instead (usually the one before it). I think it could be related to the fact that the db resides on a shared drive which periodically has slow connectivity. However, I'm looking for a solution, perhaps modifying the code?
Here's the code:
Private Sub Command17_Click()
Dim strSQL As String
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim ctl As Control
Dim varItem As Variant
On Error GoTo Err_Command17_Click
Set db = CurrentDb()
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("Tbl_Main", dbOpenDynaset, dbAppendOnly)
[code]....
I have created a Form based from a Table. On one of the fields, I need to be required inside the Form before moving to the next record of that form. I can not make the required field in the table, because I have to append information day to day.
Also, the required field is a combo box option that is limit to the list.
What kind of Code I can do inside the form of the specific field to make it required before clicking onto the next record. It does not matter if the processor closes out of the form before updating, only if moving to the next record.
In my database I have a form who's record source is a query. That query is based on a table, and have set a criteria on one of the fields.
When I use the form to add a new record I want the value of the field in question to automatically be what I have specified in the query.
Instead, the record is added but without having that value in the field, and when I go back to the form it doesn't display the record because it doesn't meet the criteria specified in the query that the form is based on.
I'm trying to create a record for a table that has 2 attributes:
ContainsTracks
+album
+tracks
I have my main form, where the album is determined by a TextBox. My subform has a textbox that lists the tracks (in datasheet view). I have this set up and working fine.At the moment if I try to add a new record by typing a new entry into the subform I get the error: "Index or primary key can not contain a null value". This is because both album and tracks make the composite primary key of ContainsTracks.
My question is, how can I tell the subform to grab the value from TextBox1 in the main form as the +album when I create a new record.I have provided two screenshot that perhaps explain my predicament a bit better

View 1 Replies View Relatedcreating a VBA that will allow me to search for a record in Table A, and once the record is found, allow me the option to add that record to Table B. Is this possible to do if Table A and Table B are not formatted the same (i.e. one has more fields than the other)? In summary, creating a VBA that will allow me to search in one table and once the correct record is found, allow me the ability to add it to another table.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am tasked with creating a scientific database of fish catches at various different sampling stations. I envisage the entry form having hierarchy levels, ie year, season, date, sample station, species caught, and then the specific associated data with each species (weight, abundance, length etc) will form each distinct record.
In each year there are 2 sampling seasons. In each sampling season there are up to 20 dates on which samples are taken. On each date there are up to 50 sample stations recorded. And at each station up to 20 species can be recorded.
In order to enter each species caught in a survey, the end user will potentially have to fill the season box with an entry 40,000 times. For each season there will be 20,000 date entries to be made. For each date, 1,000 station code entries, and 20 species entries for each station. What I would like to happen is this.
When the end user is entering the data, he or she will be working through the hierarchy from the ground up. Ie., they will enter a particular species' data (abundance, weight, length etc) at a particular station on a particular date during a particular sampling season. The next entry will be a different species at the same station on the same date during the same season. I would like the duplicated information from the previous record to be copied across onto the new one so that all the end user has to do is enter the species name, abundance weight and length data.
Once they have finished entering all the species data for that particular site, they can move onto the next site which they would fill in the data themselves for the station code. So, in the hierarchy, the first button would copy all the previous data except the species name and associated weight length abundance data. The next button would do the same, except leave the station code blank. The next button would leave the species name, station code and date blank. And so on up the hierarchy. The end user would be able to selectively choose which data is copied over by using these buttons, saving lots of potential extra work doing repetitive entries.
I'm currently working on a database which requires invoicing as a part of it. The invoicing is done based on quarters, and I want the users to be able to use a multiple items form, listing all of their clients, to create the invoices. Each invoice must be created individually so they can be e-mailed to the client, and saved to the clients folder. So I was wondering if it would be possible to create individual invoices for clients using a multiple items form.

Thanks for your kind responses.
I have another question and hope you can help with.
On my form which gets informaiton from a query, I have among other fields an Account field. I have a query, Details, that provides details on the account field, the fields of the query include Account, invoices #s, invoice amounts e.t.c.
I would like to create a button on the form that would
1) take the account # showing on the current form and run the details query based on that account #
2) display the results of the query in a spreadsheet.
Thanks again for your kind help.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHi All,
I have a form that when loads, runs some VBA on the "On Current" event.
Some of that code, fills in text boxes, with concatenated (?) strings.
So every time I use the record selector and get to the end of all the records, the "On Current" fires adds the concatenated string (even if it's empty), and that then becomes a new record! Is there some way i can prevent this, but still keep the "On Current" event, some type of logic I could run before the concatenations etc.
Any Help would be appreciated.
Cheers

Well from reading the forums i have learned alot about access but now i am stuck and can't find what i am looking for.
I am building a database basically to track the Software bought for our company.
I have my Application table and my purschased table. The relationship between the two is ApplicationID.
What i need is to be able to do is look up the ApplicationID and then have that vaule be added to the new purschase record. My method of doing this was to created a form with 3 list boxes and 1 text box (not viewable). The list boxes are Company, Application, Version. The text box is the returned ApplicationID.
The list boxes dynamically adjust based on your selecetion to find the vaule of the 1 text box "ApplicationID".
Once you have selected the application you want to add as a purschase i have a button to open the Purschase form. I have everything that needs to be filled out in the form. My problem is getting the vaule of ApplicationID in the purschase form for the new record.
My problem;
Right now when the Purschase form opens it as all the data and the ApplicationID is shown as being correct but not selected. Right now the user would have to manualy select the vaule for the data to be commited to the record.
How do i selected a record so the data is submittied and a new record is started, on open, then set the focus onto a new field. This way the user does not have to do it manually.
I hope that makes sense to everyone.
Hello.
I currently have a data-entry form that users fill-out with data (duh!). The data comes an excel spreadsheet that is created during the work-flow process.
I would like to add an "Import" button the field that, when clicked, would prompt the user to select a spreadsheet (different each time) and once that was selected import data into the form (and ultimately the table). The data will always be in the same location (cells and sheet) within every speadsheet.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
