I hope this is the right place to be posting this...
I've set up a database about unemployed people and it has a field called "Start Date of Employment", where a date is manually entered by the user.
Further down, there are two tick boxes - one called "13 weeks", and one called "26 weeks".
Now, what I'd like to happen, is that the database looks at the "Start Date of Employment", and then if 13 weeks have passed, it puts a tick in the 13 weeks box. Then when 26 weeks have passed, it puts a tick in that box also.
I'm assuming that this is possible, but I have no idea how.
I currently have a form which contains a column of tick boxes, when a box is ticked the database automatically enters the date and the name of the person logged on. It all works fine except that if i tick say row 1 then the date/name appears as it should, but at the same time random (or so it seems) boxes have ticks appear, although there is no data added to the names/date fields, just the ticks appearing . Not sure why !!!
Is it possible to create a query that prompts the user to enter the search criteria (i can do that bit) to search whether a yes/no tick box has been ticked or not. What does the user enter into the criteria box to find this?? I have tried entering null, not null, true, false, yes and no but none of them seem to work. Is this because the criteria you enter is taken as a text string and therefore will not find a tick/no tick??
Does anyone know if it's possible to colour a tick-box: e.g. the border, the background or the font-colour? I'm trying to put a red tick-box on my form (to differentiate one vital one from several others), but I can't seem to find a way. I have changed the border to red (255) and tried various options like flat, sunken etc. but it only seems to work with shadowed - and to be honest that looks terrible.
I've fudged it a bit by putting a coloured box on the form and overlaying the tick-box, but I would have thought there was a better way.
was wondering if i could get some assistance to hopefully a simple query.
In one of my tables i have about 1000 records with the data type yes/no and the problem is I have reliased that I need to have as a default value a yes (or a tick in my form) but i dont want to go down each record filling in a tick. Is there any easier way to do this
You will have to bear with me I am pretty new to access.
I manage to set up a default value of yes but this will only work on new records entered, but the issue i have is I require it to be on my records which are already there.
I am wondering if it is possible to calculate scores automatically based on the number of tick boxes the users have selected? If yes, how do I go about doing this feature?
Jus thought I'd offer this code to the forum as spent a long time finding a suitable solution..
SELECT DischargeTime.ID, [Arrival Times].ID, [Arrival Times].[A&EArrivalDate], [Arrival Times].[A&EArrivalTime], DischargeTime.[Date of outcome], DischargeTime.[Time of outcome], DateDiff("d",[A&EArrivalDate],[Date of outcome]) AS DateDifference, [Time of outcome]-[A&EArrivalTime] AS TimeDifference, IIf([DateDifference]>=1,([DateDifference]*(1/24)*576)+[TimeDifference]*(1/24)*576,([DateDifference]*(1/24)*576)+[TimeDifference]*24) AS hours3 FROM DischargeTime INNER JOIN [Arrival Times] ON DischargeTime.ID = [Arrival Times].ID;
Basically I had an admission date and in a seperate box an admission time and then I had a discharge date and discharge time again in seperate boxes. The information was spread over two tables hence the join. How I solved the problem was by gaining both the days difference between and then the difference in hours and then I created an iff function and played around with it till it worked. Dont really know how i got it working in the end but it does so hopefully this code will save some1 alot of time!
(I know that if id shown my dates as date/time in 1 box the problem would have been much easier solved, however I dont personally like displaying dates and times that way especially when you have inexperienced people entering data)
Find below a result from the query
DischargeTime.IDArrival Times.IDA&EArrivalDateA&EArrivalTimeDate of outcomeTime of outcomeDateDifferenceTimeDifferencehours3 1119/06/200715:0420/06/200712:00103:0420.93
On a form I'm asking a user to enter dates in 2 different textboxes, say, [text1] and [text2], both formatted to short date. In a third textbox [text3] I need to see the date of the greater of the two, and in a fourth [text4] I need to see the date of [text3] if it falls on a Monday through Friday, or the date of the previous Friday if [text3] falls on Saturday, and the date of the following Monday if [text3] falls on a Sunday.
...a couple quick examples;
If text1 = 2/20/2015 and text2 = 2/27/2015, text3 should evaluate to 2/27/2015, and text4 should evaluate to 2/27/2015 or If text1 = 2/20/2015 and text2 = 2/28/2015, text3 should evaluate to 2/28/2015, and text4 should evaluate to 2/27/2015
My attempts to compare text1 and text2 revolve around an IIF but result in an error...
Entering this into [text3]... IIF([text1]>[text2], [text1], [text2])
results in "#Name?" error, which I interpret as meaning the date from the source cannot be pulled into the formula.In attempt to check the day of week, I used =Weekday([text3],1) which results in a number. I haven't been able to do an IIF on it as it errors with #Name? again.
I want to be able to attach a date field to a dropdown check box. For example, say I have a client who we submit multiple deliverables to on different dates. I want to be able to check the deliverables submittted and add the date for that deliverable (each deliverable has a different date). image which is how the drop down is currently set up.
I'm trying to build an database for aircraft operators. I've got the basic tables structure and relationships but I'm stuck on building an search form to filter records by user input.I've got following controls on my form (unbound):
1. AircraftType (combo box) from tblAircrafts 2. CompanyName (combo box) from tblListOfAircraftsOperators 3. TeailNumber (text box) from tblAircraftOperators 4. AirportNameSearch (combo box) from tblAirports 5. PassengersNumber (text box) from tblAircraftOperators 6. ManufactureYear (text box) from tblAircraftOperators 7. SourceSearch (combo box) from tblInfoSource 8. CountrySearch (combo box) from tblCountry 9. CategorySearch (combo box) from tblAircraftCategory 10. EamilToOperator (text box) from tblAircraftOperators 11. InteriorPhoto (Bound object frame) from tblAircraftOperators 12. ExteriorPhot (bound object frame) from AircraftOperators
I need to enable users to search for aircrafts based on those criteria. As I mentioned I'm new to Access and I don't have any advanced coding skills. I have a query build to perform the search and this is the code I've managed to write so far:
Attached I have a database that I've been working on which has a form called "frmCriteriaSearch". It is based off of the qryCriteriaListBoxUpdate query. I am trying to get the listbox in the second tab of the results section to work. It queries fine for the checkboxes, but I cannot get the comboboxes to affect the query (unless a checkbox has already been selected)
I am trying to make a search option in my form header. Right now I have two unbound combo boxes (CboAccountsfilter and cboCourseName) that I can use to filter my records. Currently, I can use the drop down for CboAccountsfilter and a list of accounts will appear. When I select one, the corresponding Course Names will appear in cboCourseName. This works fine...Code below. I would like to take the filtering a step farther and add checkboxes to filter the data. I my form, there currently exist several check boxes (yes/no)...(Priority, Rep Top Target, Manager Top Target, ect). I would like to have the option to use a check box to filter. I.E if I had a checkbox in my header called PriorityFilter, if checked it would only bring up those records that met the two combo boxes criteria and was a priority.
Below is the code I have so far...it doesnt have anything for the checkbox because I am at a lost of how to get started.
Private Sub CboAccountsfilter_Change() Me.Requery Me.cboCourseName.Requery Me.Check178.Requery End Sub
Hi. I've set a up a tick box to choose the option to have an extension on a booking. If it is ticked, then i want it to add an extra £5 to the final cost, BUT, it can ONLY be ticked, if the Day of week is a Friday or a Saturday, AND if the time period is an evening.
Is there a way of making it, so that if the day of week is equal to friday or saturday, AND time period is equal to evening, the tick box becomes active, or visable, and if it is any other time period and day of week, it cannot?
I have a table that stores text in a number of different languages. Each entry has a unique ID number. Each language version of the same text shares the ID number. I have a column of tick boxes that show where this text is used. ie 1.0 English_text_record_1 tickcol1=y tickcol2=n tickcol3=y 1.0 French_text_record_1 tickcol1=y tickcol2=n tickcol3=y 1.0 Spanish_text_record_1 tickcol1=y tickcol2=n tickcol3=y 2.0 English_text_record_1 tickcol1=y tickcol2=y tickcol3=y 2.0 French_text_record_1 tickcol1=y tickcol2=y tickcol3=y 2.0 Spanish_text_record_1 tickcol1=y tickcol2=y tickcol3=y
I am trying to set the tick boxes so that, if I tick one in an ID range, all the rest tick on as well. ie if I tick record 1.0 English tick_col_2, then the French and spanish will be ticked as well. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Im Trying To Find A Solution To My Problem About Searching Records Through A Recordset Filter. I Have Performed The Follwing Code To Filter My Records From The Combo Box However In My Database I Have Several Yes/no Fields That I Would Like To Filter Out As Apart Of A Recordset.
Code is
Dim sql As String sql = "SELECT * FROM [qry Landuse Survey 2005] WHERE [STREET] = '" & Me![Combo255] & "'" Me.RecordSource = sql
Does Anyone Know How I can use the same principle for Yes/no Field Types?
Have a number of tick boxes on different forms. When the form is opened the tick box appears to be greyed out however it is enabled. Is there any way that these tick boxes can appear enabled???
Apologies as I've already asked this question in the forms section of the forum but the responses were a bit on the light side...I'm now getting desperate having spent much of the day trying other sources such as google (even the advanced searches as advised in a different thread)...somebody help please...
I'm just want to make sure that my IT illerate users have to tick a checkbox before they can view the next record with a message box appearing to ask them to tick it if they haven't.
I've seen a few threads on much more complex scenarios but have failed to plagiarise anything, it must be pretty basic to do right?!?
Hi, in my web page, i would like to user to see a ticked checkbox should the database = True however, i cannot seems to be getting it. Would anybody be able to help me out?
strSQL = "SELECT DeptHeadA FROM Employee WHERE EmpId = '" & strEmpId & "'" nRecDHA = GetRecordset(strSQL, arrDHA)
if arrDHA(0,i) = True then arrDHA(0,i) = "Checked" else arrDHA(0,i) = "" end if
I have a 'yes' check box and a 'no' check box. When the 'yes' check box is ticked, it enables a text box so I can enter a date and disables the 'no' box. Great, how it should work.
However, for some reason, whenever a date is entered into the text box when the 'yes' box is checked, every 'no' box afterwards is greyed/disabled out.
The thing is, it doesn't happen when no data is entered into the text box, when the 'yes' box is checked. So I can have the yes box checked, the no box will grey out as it should, and the text box will be enabled, as it should. But as soon as I enter a date, the above problem happens.
If that's not too confusion, can anyone help?
I've tried attached the database, but apparently it's too big, so i've posted the code underneath.
Cheers
Dan
EDIT: - i've just figured out that this problem is solved when I close the form and re-open it. But obviously I don't want to keep doing this every time I have to enter a date in a record.
Im doing an attendance in Access database , i have a Staff table and AttendanceMain table for keep all the staff attendance ...
I also created a query to append the data into AttendanceMain table ... the problem is , I always reuse the staff name , so i created a Staff form , but everytime i open the staff form the previous record still there , anyway to clear the "Tick Box" in staff table and without affecting the name ?(Name also is a record in row by row)
I have a form called frmBillingExport. On that form i have a button called cmdExcel that when clicked exports all the records to excel.
On the form i have a sub-form called subfrmBillingExport and in that form there are lots of fields and one of them is a tick box called blnInvoiced. The subform is also in datasheet view.
Its also worth mentioning that the subform runs off a query that displays the values based on criteria provided on a previous form.
What i want to do is when you click cmdExcel I want a window to pop up to say "Are you sure you want to invoice all of these bookings?" with buttons for Yes and No. On the Yes click i want it to tick the blnInvoiced for all those records and then only export it so i assume take whatever code is suggested and place it before that export happens.
Im new in using MS Access. How i can "tick" the yes/no button faster. I have almost 3,000 boxes to tick and its making my wrist ache... Unlike in excel where i can just drag it to the last cell....
