I'm looking to have either a combo box,, or 2 options buttons (whichever is easiest) that set a date field based on what is selected in the combo box/ option buttons.
The variables are 'Payment in 30 days" " Payment upfront"
if "payment in 30 days" is selected the date field on the form will enter the date as + 30 days from todays date if "payment upfront" is selected the field on the form will enter todays date.
This date field must be blank unless an option is selected, as this information is only entered in a later stage of the form.
I've tried a few different ways to enter this but i can't quite get it to work as i want.
I have received a Access97 database which has a date field filled with numbers. The date of birth field is in the format : 19970131 And the date of birth field is a text field. The software requires the date to be in dd/mm/yyyy order and also to be a date/time field. When I try to change the text to date/time, Access deletes all dates of birth. I am not sure how to solve this as I am very new to databases. Can someone please help me soon?

I am trying to create a query that capture all the possible choice of a fields and do some math on them. let me make it clearer. I have two fields that i need to create a query from forecast type(backup, hardcore) and win percent(76 to 100, 50 to 75, 26 to 49 and 0 to 25).

I have a table called Contacts and a form with two combo boxes for searching for records either by name or property name. The following code works fine for finding the first record, but I want to be able to show on the form all (and only) those records which match the combo box entry. Currently rowsource for name box is: ************************************************** * SELECT [Last Name1] FROM Contacts UNION SELECT [Last Name2] FROM Contacts ORDER BY Contacts.[Last Name1]; ************************************************** * and code is: ************************************************** * Private Sub Combo214_AfterUpdate() ' Find the record that matches the control for Last Name search Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Set rs = Me.Recordset.Clone rs.FindFirst "[Last Name1]= '" & Me.[Combo214] & "' OR [Last Name2]= '" & Me.[Combo214] & "'" rs.FindNext "[Last Name1]= '" & Me.[Combo214] & "' OR [Last Name2]= '" & Me.[Combo214] & "'" If Not rs.EOF Then Me.Bookmark = rs.Bookmark Combo214.Value = "" txtFirstName1.SetFocus End Sub ************************************************** * Rowsource for property box is: ************************************************** * SELECT Contacts.PropertyID, Contacts.PropertyName FROM Contacts ORDER BY Contacts.PropertyName; ************************************************** * and code is: ************************************************** * Private Sub Combo212_AfterUpdate() ' Find the record that matches the control for Property Name search Dim rs As dao.Recordset

Hello, I have a combo box called (cboridge) bound to a table called (Ridge)with two fields/columns called (dollar amount) (Material type)with 4 different options/records, when the user selects his option/field the dollar amount shows stays visible in the (cboridge) combo box Then I have a text box called (txtridgetot) that has a calculation in it, but I need different calculations per option/field that's picked. Can each option/record that is chosen have a different calculation associated with it in the (txtridgetot) text box.
In other words if the user selects the third option/field called shake ridge could I have a calculation that would run and have it display the sum of this calculation in the text box (txtridgetot).
How do I programmatically force an error dialog to make a certain choice?
I'm able to trap the dialog via the following code:
Private Sub Form_Error(DataErr As Integer, Response As Integer) If DataErr = 7787 Then 'record updated by another "user" (subform) MsgBox "Error trapped!" Response = acDataErrContinue Else Response = acDataErrDisplay End If End Sub
Problem is, if I bypass the 7787 error in this manner, it defaults to dropping the changes, rather than saving the record, which is what I want. (Both are choices on the dialog.)

I have several menus defined for Access 2010. However, only one is set with the visible property set to true.The user is able to show and bring up the other menus by right-clicking in the menu area. How can I disable this so the user may not bring up these menus? An example is shown in the picture below. I don't want to give the user access to the "CPLAccess" and "Datasheet column removed" menus, but I do want to keep them so that I can make them visible via VBA.
I have question regarding multiple choices fields. I would like to store constrained but multiple values in a single field. I used the assistant to create the multiple choice field in the table, but I'd like to have it displayed in my form with check boxes (more readable in my tabular form) instead of drop down list. Is it possible ...
I would like to run a simple select query, where the CRITERIA is based on the user choice. I have a form with a combo box, with a few choices, and a button that will trigger a macro with one query for now. I can store the choice in to a variable e.g. "town", using Microsoft VB code. How can I transfer the variable to the CRITERIA field in the query, so whenever I chose a specific "town", my query will select the records for that specific town. I want to use one query, and I don't want to have to "hard type the criteria in to the cells' query", but I would like to use a variable that can change and will be read it from the user choice through combo box.
When adding a new project to the DB (through forms, not tables) when we get to the Client Company, I have a look up menu for previous clients (many of which will be reused) and when I click on the company, I would like the information to auto populate the client company info (address, city, state, phone, etc.) form. The whole point of the look up is to not have to re-enter information for the same company over and over. However, if there is a new client company I will be able to fill that info in myself to be added to the table.
