Access 2007/ I am keeping a list of employees in my building. Each employee has a unique record. Each record has all the equipment (computers, phones, printers, etc.) that each employee has in their possession.
To do this, I downloaded the Contacts Management Template from Access and then manipulated it. I've added tabs to the forms for each type of equipment and created all the fields I need. There is one table (Contacts) and there are multiple forms. The data in the forms are populated by queries. One query populates the equipment that is assigned to employees (Contact Details) and the other populates the spare equipment (Building Equipment Details) In the forms, I would like to create a button to cut data from certain fields and put it in the clipboard. I would then like another button to paste the data from the clipboard into the same fields in another record.
Basically, this button would be used if the employee gets a new computer. The old computer should still be tracked, but in the new form for unused equipment. The employee's record would now have blank workstation fields, freeing it up to cut the data from one of the Building Equipment records and paste into the employee's record.
The field names that are in both forms are:
WK Node Name
WK Make
WK Model
WK Bar Code
WK Service Tag
WK IP Address
WK MAC
WK Operating System
WK Value
WK Owner
The GetDates Command BUTTON should generate the red data above, like:
Private Sub GetDates_Click()
Go to a new record Go to the field App_Freq and fill it with: Copy/paste the data from the field of the same name in the previous record Go to the field App_Date and fill it with: data based on this calculation using the PREVIOUS record fields: App_Date + App_Freq (which are days) Go to the field Action_Date and fill it with: data based on this calculation: App_Date (of current record now filled out - step above), minus 7 (days). End Sub
That's it!
All the dates format is set to medium date. An error message should come up in case App_Freq is empty, for example
Also note that the data can be manually changed at any time and should not revert to its last calculation. The button only generate data into a new record.
I'm trying to paste the values of worksheet 1 by value. Please see the attached two files.
When I run the code, it indicates that variable ( xlpastevalues) is not defined.
It is not a variable....
Code: Private Sub Command0_Click() Dim xlApp As Object Set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application") xlApp.Visible = True xlApp.Workbooks.Open "Your locationmetric_DEV.xls", True, False With xlApp.activeworkbook.worksheets("Metric summary") .usedrange.copy .range("A1").pasteSpecial paste:=xlPasteValues End With End Sub
Its been a few years since I used Access, and despite searches I cant find what I'm looking for. I have a VERY simple form, with only one record on it - "address". I have some print buttons which will print that address to different size labels, and some navigation items, but only one actual record - which is "address" (in the table, this address is a MEMO)
I would like to have a command button that when clicked copies the current record, and opens an existing Excel Spreadsheet and pastes that address into (for example) cell C8
Can it be done easily? Is there a DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet kind of secnario that works with current record only?
I have a text field on a form and I am trying to paste more than 50 characters (and space) into that field and I get the following message: "The text is too long to be edited.". Is ther a way to increase the paste capacity?
In the Contacts database, in the Report Center form are 5 links on the right pointing to some default reports.I have created several more reports, and want to just copy-n-paste those links and then change the 'Tag' so it will point to my new report.Can you not just copy-n-paste a field within the same form?
I would like to be able to copy a single record in a table and then paste this record a pre-defined number of times 10,20,30 depending on requirements. The reason I need to do this is that I want to set up a number of identical records that can easily be amended into unique records. This will vastly reduce the amount of work and time spent entering records individually.
The only way that I have been able to achieve this is to copy and transfer the master record into Excel, and then copy the row and paste it into a range of cells. Copy the range of cells back from Excel and then paste this range back into the Access table.
This works but is long winded; what I would like to know is is there a simply way of achieving this.
I'm not sure where this question belongs but I need to give users the ability to create a small table in MSWord or another program, and then paste the table into a data field. An image of the table would be fine. But it needs to be user friendly.
If that's not possible they could just create a Rich Text document with text formatted in a table form with out gridlines. I would need about a 2000 character limit. Not sure if this is reasonable or not??
I want Access to automatically generate a reference number for a record based on the values in on two other fields for a given record using a form.
The first field is called Operation Number.
The second is Bag Number.
The reference number needs to be in this format: 19C.3.1
Where 19C is the Operation Number, 3 is the bag number, and 1 is automatically generated. Additionally I need the last number --the automatically generated one--to go back to 1 if with each new bag number.
This is kind of like library catalog numbers. Not sure how to do this.
How do I activate functions mouse functions in a field? I want to click the right key of the mouse when I'm in a field within a form so I can cut, copy, and paste.
I have been unable to find a simple way to copy a text entry from a Table Field and paste it to multiple records in Datasheet view.The Toolbar 'Paste' procedure copies to the selected record only and I am unaware of how to select multiple records, as per a spreadsheet procedure.
I need for Access only to sum the "hours worked" of my payroll data, only if another field, "pay code" meets a certain criteria.
In Payroll, some codes are used to designate actual hours worked like REG (Regular Hours) and like OTS (Overtime Straight) while other codes are added as "premiums" to these hours and do not mean that you actually worked those hours, like OTP and HOD (Overtime Premium & Holiday Premium). The hours are only added as a reference to the actual hours worked they are attached to. Their units should not be counted as hours worked.
I want Access to 1) Group By Cost Center, 2) Sum "Hours Paid" that are tied to a REG or OTS (only), but 3)Sum the Earnings for all pay types.
Basically, (in excel-like terms: Hours Paid Column= SUMIF of Paycode = REG OR OTS. But Earnings Amount Column= Sum of all Paycodes)
Cost Center Job Type Hours Paid Pay Code Earnings Amount
I have several result fields which are all drop down lists. I want each result field's drop down list values to be different depending on the selected value of the Test1 drop down list.I came up with using the .rowsource keyword. My syntax seems to be fine but I'm not getting any values under the result fields when I run the form.Here is my code so far:
Private Sub Test1_AfterUpdate() If Me.Test1 = "Stress Echo" Or Me.Test1 = "Stress SPECT" Or Me.Test1 = "Stress PET" Or Me.Test1 = "Stress MRI" Then Me.Test1Result2.RowSourceType = "Value List" Me.Test1Result3.RowSourceType = "Value List"
How to fill values in a new record with data from previous record?
I've total 11 columns in a table and values in 3 4 columns are repeating for few rows before it needs to be changed eventually. I want to fill these rows with values from previous record.
I'm pretty good with setting up a very simple database such as inventory, profiles, etc.. However I'm creating a database to keep track of a football (soccer) team's players and match statistics.What I have so farsample attached)
Tables: * Players - PlayerID, Fname, Lname, position, goals, assists, etc (all details regarding a player) * Position - Positons (Table containing positions eg: defender. Data is selected in player's form as a combo-box) * Competition - Competition types (Cup, League, Friendly. Data is selected in Match's form as a combo-box * Venue - similar to Competition table * Opponent - Similar to above two tables * Match - MatchID, Competition, Venue, etc (form corresponding to table attached)
Forms: * Player form * Match form
Now as shown in the sample, I choose players using the combo-box. Then whatever stats they had during the match are entered on the fields provided. How to link the player (selected using combo box) to the stat fields (goals, assist, YC, etc).
i want to add a control in that form that sums up and aggregate all the values of field called [amount] based on the value of [Name_Patient] as criteria
I have several fields that I fill in on a form and they all need to add up in the last field. The first way that I tried this worked good for the initial data entry on the form. However if I need to edit one of the fields in the form then it resets the TotalCost field and I have to enter all of the numbers again. Is there some way that I can make this work? Or is this an Access quirk I will have to live with?
I tried to do this two different ways.
Here is the code for the first method:
Option Compare Database Dim C1 As Long 'For Total Cost Dim C2 As Long 'For Total Cost Dim C3 As Long 'For Total Cost Dim C4 As Long 'For Total Cost
[Code] .....
This way works great the first time that I tried it, I had to re-enter info in all the fields if I wanted to change one.
Here is my second method:
Which didn't work, i received an error message:
"The expression After Update you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Invalid outside procedure."
And then nothing changes.
Code: Option Compare Database Dim C1 As Long 'For Total Cost Dim C2 As Long 'For Total Cost Dim C3 As Long 'For Total Cost Dim C4 As Long 'For Total Cost
I am trying to create a list of values in a field separated by commas. I have done this in a query as follows:
[Field1]&", "&[Field2]&", "&[Field3] and so on.
However, when Field2 is null, the result is two commas between Field1 and Field2, but I only need one. What function can I use to eliminate the extra commas when fields used in the concatenation are null?
I'm fairly new to setting up Access databases. Been learning a lot. Ran into a snag that I'm hoping you can help me with.
I am using a form to display text labels and running statistics for our jail.
The form, "Complete_Worksheet" gets its data from a query, "qryComplete_Worksheet". Fields that make these up are:
ID (key) Standard (text) Outcome Measure (text) Numerator/Denominator (text) CalcValue (number)
ID, Standard, Outcome Measure, and Numerator/Denominator are queried from a table, "tblComplete_Worksheet". CalcValue comes from another query, "qryDataSelect". My problem is this:
In the final calculated statistic, some records are numerators and some are denominators. I need one more field, which I have been trying to create as a calculated control on my form which will divide each numerator CalcValue value by the denominator CalcValue value following it. Since these values change constantly as new data is entered into another data table, the calculated control needs to also change with them. I have been attempting to do this using the following expression:
I am working on a Reset Password form for a database. The table is called tblUsers and has three fields (ID, Login and Password). The form has a text box where the user can enter in a new password, I already have the code that checks the current password and everything I just can't figure out how to update the password in the table. The textbox is named txtNewPass.
How might I go about taking the values fo certain fields in a previous record and place them in the same fields of the current record, using either a query or VBA?
I've seen something about being able to utilize previous record data but for the life of me I can't remember where I saw it!!
I am trying to concatenate 2 unique values which are parts of 2 identical rows(records) in order to have only 1 row(record) with concatenated field where the values are unique. For illustration here is what I need to achieve :
I'm looking to record bets and winnings for multiple accounts with a running balance for each account and a running grand total. On the face of it a spreadsheet seemed to be the answer but I need to create a history of bets placed and winnings received. The friend, for whom I'm doing this, wants to be able to overtype current values to create new records. There must also be a facility to create new accounts.
Account A has an opening balance of £135.00 and the other accounts each have their own balances.
A bet of £100 is placed against Account A i.e. a debit, so the balance is now £35.00. Subsequently, a win of £150.00 is received of £150 so the balance is now £185.
Each bet should, I think, have an effective date and an inactive date. Current records will have an effective date but the inactive date will be null. Completed bets will have both an effective date and an inactive date.
Wins only need a date created date.I need to display the account name, current bet, winning amount and balance on the same row - using a form? When the form is opened there will be a column of account names, a column of current bets, a column of winnings and a column of balances.
If there is a current bet then that value should be shown in the appropriate text box. When a win is received the user should type that value in the 'Win' text box and a new Win record should be created with today's date. The inactive date of the current bet should be updated to today's date.
Now the Current_Bet text box should be empty as should the Winning text box.
The user should now be able to enter a new value in the Current_Bet box and create a new current bet record with an effective date of today and a null inactive date.
How can I populate the Current_Bet box with the value of the current record, make the changes described above and use the same text box to enter new values and create new records.
Essentially the form would look pretty much a spreadsheet where the user can just overtype values but a history of changes has to be recorded and the balance isn't just the sum of the displayed values because if it was then each time values were overtyped the balance would change and would take no account of the history.
