Creating Two Tables And Having Them Get Info From Each Other

Apr 2, 2012

I am very new to access and I am trying to create two tables called Customers and Orders.

The fields in Customers are:
CustomerID (Primary Key), First Name, Last Name, Address.

The fields in Orders are:
Order# (Primary Key), CustomerID, Product Purchased, Address.

There is a One to many relationship between CustomerID in the table Customers, to the CustomerID in Orders.

The problem I am having now is with the Address field.

GOAL: What I am trying to do is have the Orders table automatically get the Address from the Customers Table.

If that doesnt make sense, whenever I create a new Order, I want to enter the customerID, and have it get the Address data from the Customers table automatically put into the proper field in the Orders table.

Forms :: No Info When Creating Form

Jan 24, 2014

I'm quite new to using Access 2007 and I'm trying to create a form from different tables which have relationships. I've used the form wizard and added all the fields I need from the different tables, however, when I click form view it only shows the title and nothing else. When I'm in design view everything is showing..

Creating Equipment ID's Automatically From Departmental Info

Jan 17, 2005

Hello,

I am starting to get further into access development, originally i started from a sample database and have been teaching myself as i go along. This database has come pretty far and the farther it comes along the more my company demands of me from it!

either way, it is basically a database that holds all of our asset information, equipment parts, workorders and preventative maintenance. We've been plugging along just fine but I want to help their productivity and have access automatically create "Equipment ID"'s from information that is entered by the person adding an asset. I would like it to create an ID from Entry of the Department, Location, and then a 4 digit Autonumber after that.

Basically we have a few basic departments, IT, Facilities, etc. and a few locations... So we have been setting our equipment ID's like this:

AA - Two characters for the Location
BB - Two characters for the department
0000 - numbered field

So I really would like to be able to create these automatically instead of manually typing them in to a text field with an input mask.

AABB-0000 to automatically create entries from the departmental info, location info and then automatically create a 4 digit number in order to follow it.

What is the best way to do this? Keep in mind I am just barely able to do any code, I only have been going from what i see in the database and building upon it and learning a few bits and pieces of code from there. So if you start going into a code explaination go slow~!

Thanks,
Jim

Modules & VBA :: Creating A Record And Then Updating With Additional Info In Various Fields

Apr 24, 2014

In the code below I am creating a record with the INSET INTO statement and then Updating with additional info in various fields. it is not working the way I thought it would, so I am trying to create the record in it's entirety.

Code:
SQL_Grade_GUSD_ID = "INSERT INTO Grades (GUSD_Student_ID) VALUES (" & Me.GUSD_Student_ID & ")"
SQLM1_1_ELA = "UPDATE Grades SET Grades.Subject = ""BM1(ELA)"""
SQLM1_2_ELA = "UPDATE Grades SET Grades.Type = ""Exam"""
SQLM1_3_ELA = "UPDATE Grades SET Grades.Score = ""0"""
SQLM1_4_ELA = "UPDATE Grades SET Grades.Nam = ""GUSD BM-1"""
DoCmd.RunSQL SQL

[Code] ...

I am running to syntax problems when I try to USE the INSERT INTO to create the record with all the info in one statement.

Code:
SQLM1_1_ELA = "INSERT INTO Grades ( GUSD_Student_ID, Subject, Type, Score, Nam ) " & _
"SELECT (" & Me.GUSD_Student_ID & ")"" AS GUSD_Student_ID, ""BM2(ELA)"" AS Subject, " & _
"""Exam"" AS Type, ""0"" AS Score, ""GUSD BM-1"" AS Nam " & _
"FROM Grades"

I am Getting this error:

Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression '(12345)" AS GUSD_STUDENT_ID,
"BM2(ELA)" As Subject, "Exam" AS Type, "0" As Score, "GUSD BM-1" AS Nam From Grades'

Sep 18, 2014

I have a list of people in a list box. In the list box I only have the people names listed. (example below)

1. John

I want to click on one of the names and have a form pop up on the same screen that lists the persons contact info. If I had a table like listed below, could the info auto populate on a separate form.

2.

I want the Form to pop up and show...

Options To Get Info From Tables

May 16, 2005

It seems that there are a few different ways to get info from the tables when developing an applications that i know of:

1)queries
2)dao
3)ado
4)selects without any of the above

I lean towards the last 2 but I need to know this: is there any advantages in using ado as opposed just sql?

For instance i ran this sql:

Private Sub Command0_Click()

Dim SQL As String
Dim strCriteria As String

strCriteria = Forms![form2]![Text1]



SQL = "SELECT * FROM Table1 WHERE (((Table1.clinic)='" & strCriteria & "'))"


DoCmd.OpenForm "frmClinic"
Forms![frmClinic].RecordSource = SQL
End Sub

it worked fine. I could see how a beginner would prefer to use queries over sql but I would prefer to use sql in vba. I've read that dao is older and I should use ado instead. So that leaves ado vs. the way I displayed it in the above code. So which way should I go? If I'm over looking queries or dao in favour of ado/sql, just point out their advantages if you don't mind.

Thanks,

scratch

Form Getting Info From Two Tables...

Jun 7, 2006

************** edit: Fixed!!!! *************


The database I'm working on is coming on nicely, thanks to some valuable help from this forum. But I've got a couple of new problems that I just can't seem to get my head around. Really hope someone out there can help!

So...

I have two tables (well, there are more.. but there are two main ones with the important data on them). The first is a list of Customers (you know, the usual Name, contact, telephone etc...). The second is a list of jobs for each customer.

After starting from scratch, I created a nice looking form wth control tabs that on one page shows you the customer information and on the second; the job history for that customer. I then have a third tab which lets you add new jobs. So I'm all chuffed because that is the basics of what I wanted it to do.

However, I need a hard copy of the job report to print out and give to an engineer to fill in or to print in future should a customer wish to see it.

Try as I might, the reports function didn't look as if it was something that could be "designed" the way I wanted it to look. So, I figured another form was in order.

I started by building a query which included all the fields from the two tables mentioned above in it; I.e. So it would pull up a Job Printout by a workorderID number. That way it would show all the company info PLUS the detail of that one particular job.

Problem is this: I can see from the query in table view that the Jobs are listed; but alongside them is a straight listing for all the companies in the database. Basically, the Company who received the job in question is not being shown by the query.... if you follow me. (Apologies if I'm explaining this like a fool).

Question 1 then... is how do I fix this? Is this something to do with these arcane relationships things?

Question 2: How do I create a button to print that one "form" by workorder ID.

Question 3: Did I do the right thing by using a "form" or is there a better way to create a "report" for printing that can be formatted the way I want (with logos and stuff)

Thanks again peeps!

Pulling Info From Tables

Nov 8, 2004

I am trying to get an email address from a table by choosing a employee number from a combo box...it is almost working,
however, it is returning the employee number as opposed to the email address...here is the code I am trying to use:

Private Sub Combo0_AfterUpdate()

Dim myConnection As ADODB.Connection
Set myConnection = CurrentProject.Connection
Dim myRecordSet As New ADODB.Recordset
myRecordSet.ActiveConnection = myConnection
Dim mySQL As String

mySQL = "SELECT EmailName .*,[Employees] FROM EmployeeNumber"

myRecordSet.Open mySQL, , adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic

myRecordSet.MoveFirst
myRecordSet.MoveNext
myRecordSet.Close

Set myRecordSet = Nothing
Set myConnection = Nothing

End Sub


Then, in the section for the command button and the Outlook code, I have:

eMailAddress = Me![Combo0].Value


like I said, it is returning the same value that is in the combo box...if anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated

Getting Info From 2 Tables To One Report

Sep 29, 2007

I'm a genealogy nut and not so great at computers. I've got a report on cemeteries that gets things like a cemetery number, peoples names and tombstone information from one table. Got that working pretty well. I've got it to print the cemetery number in the detail header (there are 300+ cemeteries each with 1-100s of people in each). I want to take that number and use it in a different table to get travel directions and GPS for each cemetery.

Updating Field Info Between Two Tables

Aug 19, 2015

My father tables contains all the relevant fields with info of my products (which are listed in records/rows). My sister table contains less fields but are all present in the father table. The info is imported from excel daily into the sister table - all the fields here change regularly except for the unique ID which is present in both tables. Because the sister tables' information for the records/rows changes, it is difficult to update the selected fields of the father table.

I want to update selected fields within my father table based on the information I upload from the excel sheet (which becomes the sister table when uploaded)

Linking Info From 2 Tables To Same Form By A Field

Jan 25, 2007

I have two Tables, Contacts and FlowMeters.

On the Flow Meter Form Info is listed specifically for each Flow Meter.

I would like to bring some of the information from the Contacts table on this form.

For Instance if I am on Meter 1T-02 I would like for it to associate that meter number with the name of the customer thats already on the form, then look up that customer's name in the contact table and bring over that customer's contact information.

I built this database over a year ago and it has been a long time since I have worked with the design of it, therefore I am a bit rusty.

Please help if you can.

Thank You

Need Help With Updating Number In Tables (read Post For More Info)

Sep 13, 2007

I am new to Access, so bear with me.

I am using Access 2007.

I have 4 tables created, and they are breaking out information for recording files that are being created from a PBX.
The tables are created as thus:

tbl_1
Key:ext_id | extension

tbl_2
Key:loc_id | location

tbl_3
Key:f-type_id | filetype


tbl_4
Key: mass_id | filename | date | loc_id | ext_id | f-type_id


Now I have created the relationships between the tables for the various ID's. My issue is the following:

I will be automating this process, so when the data is imported to the various tables, I need the relevant keys from tbl_1 tbl_2 and tbl_3 to be added to tbl_4 when the new data is brought into the tables.

As to the process of importing the data, I was looking at using PHP to facilitate this. Any ideas, help or direction would be greatly appreciated. I have looked around the net for an idea of how to solve this, but, being so new, I am not exactly sure how to word the question.


Thanks!

Continuous Form - How To Display Info From Tables With One To Many Relationships

Apr 25, 2006

Hi everyone,
I've tried several different things to get around this problem and have found out a lot about what won't work!

Basically I am building a HR database. The main table is M_CandidateDetails and the primary key is CandidateID. This is a foreign key in all of the other tables: MCandidateEducation, MCandidateEquipExp, MCandidateSector. (I've attached a screenshot of the relationships.)

Goal:
What I want to do is create a continuous form with one record for each candidate. A record will show all of the info pertaining to a candidate. The form is to be used to for searching and filtering candidates.

Attempts..
First I tried creating a query to combine all of the information. (I've attached a screenshot of the query). The only problem with that was if joe bloggs had worked in 3 different industry sectors there would be 3 records for him. (I did have problems with the query not being updatable - solved that though by using the Dynaset property of the form)

Next I tried basing the form only on the M_Candidates table and using listboxes to display the information from the many-side of the various tables. But that didn't work as you cannot use an unbound control on a continuous form.

Then I tried putting in subforms instead of listboxes but you can't use subforms on a continuous form.

I'm out of ideas now- can anyone give any tips?

Reports :: Displaying All Info From Two Tables On Report Not Working?

Mar 11, 2014

I have 3 tables.

One is a list of fishermen with all their info. I used a Code as the primary key.

The 2nd is a fish ticket sheet with fish tickets entered and the code in there as a foreign key in the relationship between the two.

I create a report listing the fish tickets and prices perfectly for the 4 fishermen I have entered fish tickets for. (I have 140 fishermen in the main table)

I added a 3rd table for payments made to the fishermen. There are two payments for 2 of the fishermen.

then, I go into report design view and drag in two of the cells from that 3rd table into my report.

The problem is the report then prints JUST the fish tickets and payments for the two fishermen that have payments...not the info for all 4 fishermen. I need to print out settlements for all the fishermen whether they have payments or not?

Link All Tables By Special Number Will Info Auto-populate?

Aug 20, 2013

I have a few questions about tables and forms joining, and auto-population of data.

If I join all 8 of my tables one to one to one to one to one, is that possible? That is my first question.

Secondly: If I have my RSN number that I'm using to track each record, is it possible that if I type in the number on a different form, and two of the fields are similar on every form that they will auto populate since the tables are joined?
And if they're filled out in one form, they should know that these were the fields we said were attached to this number it'll just appear? Is that a real thing?

Update Order Info Based On Quote Info

Nov 7, 2006

I need help on this, from what the best concept is, to what I need to look into using:

I store Quote data from phone calls into tblQuotes. There is a seperate table that holds much of the same information except that it is for actual orders called tblOrders.

As far as function goes, I have each working much the way I need it to except for one thing... If a sales person is on the phone with a customer with a quote already in the system, right now they re-enter the data into the Order table. Most times, the order is what was quoted, but maybe with a few small changes (so I will wnt to keep a historical record of the quote). How could I copy the contents of the quote recordset into the recordset for an order, where all the sales rep does from there is edit the quote to the actual order?

Would I use VBA or an update query that is executed via VAB? Honestly, I am unsure how to do this at all, I hope someone has seen this before and has a good suggestion...

Thank you.
