Data Entry Form/SSN Not Updating
Nov 13, 2006
I have an issue, I have a main data entry form that does not allow new SSN# to be entered in that particular form. So I added a button that brings up the form which allows a person to put in the new SSN# and person name. The problem is when that form closes and the other form tries to get the information from the pulldown. It is not shown there. I have to manually close and open the form again so that the new updated information can be on the main data entry form.
Is there a way for the information to be updated when a new SSN# is put into the database so a person don't have to close the main form and open it back up?

Hi
Can any one help me with a quickey. I have a form which shows short details of a building ie name town postcode etc. I have another form with 3 subforms to be able to enter new details of a building, the new client and the new agreement. This works well and is feeding the new data into the correct tables. When I reopen the short detail form it doesnot display the new records. I have a short piece of vba which allows ne to see the full details of a site when I click on the site name.
A quick reply would be much appreciated.
Thanks

My question is this: I have a table where I'm entering employees' hours worked. Basically, it's something like this:
ID WorkerNumberDateworkedTimeStartTimeEnded
121/2/201310:00:00 AM3:00:00 PM
221/3/20132:00:00 AM11:00:00 AM
321/4/201312:15:00 AM11:30:00 AM
421/5/201310:25:00 PM11:00:00 AM
531/2/201311:00:00 AM3:30:00 PM
631/3/201312:00:00 PM10:00:00 PM
731/10/20137:00:00 AM4:00:00 PM
I have a query that (easily) determines how many hours an employee has worked on any given day. What I can't figure out at all, is how to write a query that can figure out how much time an employee had off in between shifts.
Thus far I'm able to run a query that separates this main table into individual workers by their id numbers, but can't figure out how to determine time off between shifts - as the last hour worked one day, and the first hour worked the next day are on two different lines (they are two different table entries).

I Work for an NHS organization. A department here orders prescriptions and sends them out to Gp Surgeries. I have been tasked in designing a database to make this easier for them.
Prescriptions arrive on a Pallet. Each pallet has 100 Boxes of prescriptions on it. Each box Contains 2000 Individual prescriptions. I have a table which contains the following:
Box Number
Serial Start Number
Serial End Number
When the user enters the first box number and the serial start number, i need it to calculate the serial end number and insert another 99 rows into the table and also calculate the serial start and end numbers for these other 99 records.

I an trying to create a data entry form (IndividualsEntryFm) to input data for fields such as (First Name),(Birthdate) etc., these to be saved to the (IndividualsTbl)
I also have another table (NamesTbl) which has family names etc. The two tables are linked by a (MainID) field. I want a combo box on the individualsEntryFm so that I can select the family name. Then I wish the empty fields for the IndividualsTbl to be available to enter data.When I press the save button I then want this data saved, together with the MainID from the combo box to the IndividualsTbl.
I have set the IndividualsTbl with a (PersonID) field as an auto number each individual therefore has a unique PersonID but may well share the MainID. I'm trying to link many people to the same address.

I want to use the same form in datasheet mode for data entry and retrieval. When retrieving, all controls are disabled and locked. I am trying to enable and unlock them for modifying but that isn't working.

DoCmd.OpenForm "PO_Practice Data", , , , acFormEdit, acHidden
Forms![PO_Practice Data]!PO_Name.Enabled = True
Forms![PO_Practice Data]!PO_Name.Locked = False
Forms![PO_Practice Data]!Practice_Name.Enabled = True
Forms![PO_Practice Data]!Practice_Name.Locked = False
[code]...

I am trying to save specific data from a data entry form to a specific depending on what the user selects from a dropdown/combo box.
So if the user selects "test company from the combo box, that data (from that form) will save to the Test company data table.

My aim is to have my forms open to a new record, which I have done, but if my users need to then update or edit data in previous entries, they can click a button that allows this.
My thoughts were to add a button, then put in code so that the necessary properties changed the form from displaying a new record or records entered since opening it, to showing all records in the associated table....
As an example there is a table for purchase orders. When clicking on this from the main menu form, it opens up the purchase order form to create a brand new PO. At times though, we will need to revisit an order to attach a copy of an invoice, or update the cost of whatever was purchased.

My db has multiple linked tables. As time passes and work on a project continues data needs to be added to a separate table that is linked to the first table to be populated.
i.e., Initial design data is entered first, when drilling is complete more data is added to a linked table, when drilling is surveyed yet more data is added to the second table.
What I want to be able to do is to query for a particular set of existing design data, display this on a form and on the same line enable data entry to other fields from other tables which are linked to the existing design data.

This has most definitely been asked before but I really cant find anything on the forum! Ive created a data entry form which has a save button which the user must click each time to save the record. However how do I refresh the form i.e. empty all data from the previous record without exiting the form. Ive tried to combine the undo macro but that simply deletes the previous record. Any help please!!!

I don't want the form to add the record if I put in a value in a field. I want it to add the record when I press a "Add information to a record"-command button. How can I do this?

I need to design a query using fields from two tables, from which I am creating an autoform for data entry purposes. I have done this before with no problem. Now though, I cannot enter data - the option for new record is greyed out. Is there something simple I am not doing? Please help!

Say I have a form with three blank textboxes:
Name
Date
Description
And I have a table with those same fields: Name, Date, Description
How can I code a button to add a new row (record) from the form using the textboxes after they have been filled in?
I am familiar with the basic data entry mode, but for my purposes, it'd be best if I could do this without forcing the form to use the table as a Record Source.
Thanks so much in advance.

Hi, need some assistance as a access beginner. First I’m not sure if I will need two related tables to do what I want (if so a brief description of how would be appreciated). I would like to create a data entry form (Material Requisition) where the body of the form contains basic information about the request (including a “Next Number” com. button, that will assign the next number using “Dmax” + 1, I think I can figure this out myself) and then have a sub-form where multiple items can be entered (requested) on the same “Requisition Number” as line items (if the line numbers will need to be identified as I’m sure they will, I would like this to happen automatically. I can/ have made basic databases with simple queries, reports and entry forms but this seems a little advanced for me right now. I would then like to generate a report grouped by the requisition number with their associated "line items". Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

My data entry form has a button that allows the record to be saved. However, after saving the record, the form doesn't allow a new record to be added. The new form just sits there with the previously entered information in it. How do I go to a new record?

I have searched the forum and asked some of my colleagues about this and I do not seem to be getting anywhere. :(
What I need is to be able to use a (blank, ie showing no current records) form to enter data into a new record.
I have Tables A and B in a 1-to-many relationship and I need to be able to bring up a blank form which has:
1. a combo box, allowing me to select the relevant record from the parent (table A), and ...
2. blank fields (from the child - table B) to fill in with new data.
I can set this up using a standard setup, where all records are shown, but this is confusing to a dumb user, who really only wants to see relevant boxes for them to fill in without the distractions of data in fields they are not concerned with or with other records they do not want to know about.
Can anyone help? :)

Hi guys,
I've got a table (called table1), which a select query (called qryTable1) read it and is referenced in a form (called frmTable1).
So now my form display fields of the query of the table.
On the form, below the text boxs for data entry, there is a subform that displays the entire table - table1.
I've done this so I can see some fields of the old data, that helps me to enter new ones. Hope u follow so far...
---
This where I'm stuck. When I was half way entering data in the top section of the form (ie using text boxes), if I go to the subform below to copy some values from a field, ACCESS then either adds a new or edit the record. I'm wondering if there is a way to stop ACCESS automatically doing this? I want to be able to add a record when THE add record button is depressed, and that's the only way to add record.
Please do help..

Im trying to make a data entry form which will add a new record to a database. My problem is when I associated it with a table. it starts off with a record already populated in the fields. Can someone tell me how to start off with a blank form to add new information.
Part 2
I wish to have a combo box that will drop down with SSN#s and populate the Address field automatically so that a person with additional orders will not have duplicated addresses but just one main address.
Thanking you all in advance!

I have a very simple database that keeps a track of line performance figures, i have attached a part of it as an example:
In my lines table are 8 production lines
in my log table i need to keep a track of the data,
what i would like to happen:
i need a form that when i open it all the production lines i have are displayed and next to each line are 2 data entry fields so i can enter a performance and an output figure for each line in one go, so in this instance i would like 8 lines and 2 entries per line.
at the moment i have to do each line individually.
i would also like this to grow should i add more lines
how can i best sort this please.
Help would be much appreciated

I am learning access on my own, so please bear with me.
I am using Access 2000.
I have a form with a combo box. I use this form to enter data into the database. The combo box selections are from a separate table. If the required entry is not in the drop down menu selections from the table, the user needs to type in the proper selection. If this happens I want the table driving the combo box dropdown to be automatically updated with the new entry so that the data will appear in the drop down menu selections the next time. How is the best way of accomplishing this. Thanks for any answers and examples.

I have been trying to figure this one out for a while and I can't seem to find anything helpful. I'm going to present a simplified version of my problem to help keep it simple.
I have an "Activities" table that contains fields:
ActivityID
ActivityName
I have a table of 7 Risk areas which contains fields:
RiskID
RiskName
What I need to do is to create a form that will allow the user to select an activity and then, for each of the 7 risk areas, input a risk measurement.
This involves the creation of a 3rd table to collect the user input which would contain fields:
MeasurementID
RiskMeasurement
ActivityID
RiskID
I can do a dropdown of the Activities and have a subform that links to it but the problem I'm having is trying to get that subform to list the 7 Risk Areas AND collect the RiskMeasurement information from the user. How can I have a listing of these 7 areas from one table that are tied to inputs that go into another table? This seems so basic and simple yet I have tried numerous things and all have failed.
I hope this was clear. Any help is appreciated.

Okay, for simplicity's sake, I have a data entry form.
It is bound to tableData.
Inputs are:
ProductID
Customer Name
ProductID is a combo box.
There is another table called tableProduct. In this table, is ProductID and ProductName.
For convenience sake, when a user chooses a ProductID from the combo box, I want it to lookup that ID from tableProduct. However, how can I do this when everything is already bound to tableData?
Thanks in advance.
