Default, Populated Fields
Nov 2, 2005
Hey All, I have a main form PID and and Building form I need to have the data from the building table display on the building form, upon adding a new record. Since my PID form and building form are linked to show the same records. PID Form contains- PIN NUM, ADDRESS, PARID. The Building form contains, PIN NUM, DATE, PHONE, OWNER, SIZE, LOCATION... I open my main form filter my results for my reocrds to show up... PIN-20053227, ADDRESS-MAINSTREET, PARID-NEWFIE22. This data is obtained through the PARID table. Now I click on the command button to see my building forms, there are 6 records, here I have the ability to add, modify, delete, save... What i want to do is add a new record, but have some generic fields appear from my table. since my name, PIN, address hasnt changed. So I would like to click add, and have appear from the building table, OWNER, PHONE etc... How might I be able to do this?? Thanks- NOTE: Hey all I double posted this incase you didnt notice this in the FORMS, Form.

I have a very simple single-table database with 23 fields. Some of the records have only two or three fields populated. I would like to be able to print a summary of only the populated fields in each record.
It would Ideally look something like:
Record 1 Name
Field 1 Title: Field 1 content - Field 2 Title: Field 2 Content - Field 5 Title: Field 5 content
Field 10 Title: Field 10 Content - Field 11 Title: Field 11 content - Field 12 Title: Field 12 Content
Field 21 Title: Field 21 content - Field 22 Title: Field 22 Content
Record 2 Name
Field 1 Title: Field 1 content - Field 2 Title: Field 2 Content - Field 5 Title: Field 5 content
Field 10 Title: Field 10 Content
Record 3 Name
Field 11 Title: Field 11 content - Field 12 Title: Field 12 Content - Field 21 Title: Field 21 content
Field 22 Title: Field 22 Content

i would like to sum up 5 fields and save (or just show it in the form view is enough really) in a seperate field, i have managed to sum the 5 fields, but it summed up all 5 fields in all records, i'd like to have my form show the sum for the record, not the table.
it would be ideal that it would refresh when one of the 5 fields data changes, i.e from 1000 to 2000. again updating in the form view is what is needed.

I have a table with multiple fields and each record in the table may not have data for all fields. I need to write a query that will pull only the fields that are populated for each record from the table.

I tried putting the following code in the form unload procedure, but although it does generate the correct message, it doesnt stop the form from closing.
Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
If [Starttime] > 0 And [Admin_time] = 0 Then
response = MsgBox("Please click on the stop button to stop the clock")
Exit Sub
End If
end sub
If the above condition holds, I want the user to click on the stop button before they close down the form. I'm guessing that the form is already commited to closing before the unload event? :o

I am really new to Access 2010 as I normally use SQL so im sure this is a very basic question. I have a form where I have linked some sql tables to a table in access so the data gets stored in SQL. The form consists of many fields the basic fields are Policy ID, Name, Office, Month, Dept etc. At the moment users have to fill this in using comboboxes and text boxes but I want to change this so when the user puts in the Policy ID all the other fields are populated ie in the office field it would have a sql query of or something that looksup the office from the policy id that is entered:
SELECT [Office] FROM DBO.DQ
WHERE [Policy_ID]='what is entered into the Policy ID field' and so on.
Also not sure if this works but as I have now linked the tables to SQL does this mean that when a user fills in the information into the form it will then update the SQL table or is this another issue?

I have a combo box that pulls account name data from tblAcctInfo. the combo box has an OnChange event which updates a textbox, txtAcctAddr.
when i have a new account that i would like to be listed in the combo box, i use a form, frmAcctAdd, to add a record to tblAcctInfo.
what i would like to do, is:
1) when i type a new value in the combo box that isn't in the list, have that string value pre-populate in the frmAcctAdd.
2) when i have added the new account info into frmAcctAdd and then saved the record, i would like the new value to pre-populate in the combo box, with the txtAcctAddr textbox also updated via the OnChange event (or maybe a different event is more appropriate?).
I have created a long version of this which requires a lot more user interaction (1-user typing in a new value into the combo box, 2-user RE-typing the SAME value into a data entry form, frmAcctAdd, 3-user saving the new record, 4-user re-clicking the combo box and selecting the newly added value) but i am trying to streamline the data entry with auto-populated fields.

Hi, I am a newbie in MS Access. I am trying to write a simple database to record engineering drawings received. I would like to retain an entry into a field from a previous entry, but if it is slightly different allow the value to be overwritten.
For example:
If I receive a drawing from a particular person, (say) Osborne, then that is entered into the senders field. The next drawing I receive also from Osborne, wil already have Osborne in the entry field from the previous entry so I will not have to retype it. If a drawing is then received from someone else then Osborne is overtyped with the name of the new sender.
Anyone help a newbie with this please? Thanks

I am using Access 2013 and in table design view. Whenever I add a new 'Number' or 'Currency' field the 'Default Value' property is (by default) always 0.This is fine except when i want to refer to a foreign key or amount which could be unknown. In either of those cases the resulting field will either be invalid (because no foreign key has ID = 0) or inaccurate (because 0 is not the same as Unknown).
I would prefer if the 'Default Value' property for new fields was always nothing, then I can add my own if and when required. I want to change the default setting on a property for new fields, not the value of the field itself.
I'm guessing this isn't actually possible, but at least this post has served to vent my frustrations! What bugs me even more is that i'm sure it wasn't like this in Access '10, is this another "upgrade".

Hi people,
May I know how to add 2 fields.
i.e
My table has 3 columns
Field1 Field2 Field3
The value of field3 = field2 + field1 (the formate of field1, field2 n field3 are currency)
how do I indicate that the value of field3 is depended on the value of field2 n field1
is it under the default value of field3(in the TABLE design view)that i indicate field2 + field1?
thank u

I have a blank form that is usually entered from scratch, so all the fields are empty.
We do fill out the form with standard data occasionally, so I'd like to be able to assign a button or use a combo box to automatically fill those fields with predetermined data.
Two questions:
1) Can I use a 'on click' for a button to populate the data using this:
Code:
Me.Control1.DefaultValue = Chr(34) & Me.Control1 & Chr(34)
2) If I have a default value fill a combo box, will it save the bound column correctly since I didn't select it from the drop down itself?

Any idea why a combobox would not populate? :confused:
When the form is opened, it is opened with DOCMD.OPENFORM with selection
criteria to send only those records for a particular dog (dogregnbr).
The query for the rowsource of the combobox works when run from the
query design window.
combobox: cboTrialDt (trial date)
combobox control source: trialclassID (from tblDogTitles)
form record source: tblDogTitles
The query for the combobox rowsource is:
SELECT tblDogTitles.dogtitleID, tblTrials.trialdt
FROM tblTrials INNER JOIN (tblDogTitles INNER JOIN tblTrialClass ON
tblDogTitles.trialclassID = tblTrialClass.trialclassID) ON
tblTrials.trialID = tblTrialClass.trialID;
tblDogTitles has the following fields:
dogtitleID - PK
dogregnbr - FK (key to record in tblDogs)
titleID - FK (key to record in tblTitles)
trialclassID - FK (key to record in tblTrialClass
and then some other fields not involved in this problem.
I have another combobox setup similarly that does get populated
properly. It's control source is titleID.
It's rowsource is:
SELECT tblDogTitles.dogtitleID, tblTitles.title
FROM tblTitles INNER JOIN tblDogTitles ON tblTitles.titleID =
tblDogTitles.titleID;
After explaining why this is happening, do you have a suggestion for how I can get the trial date (trialdt) from tblTrials to display for the current dogtitle record (tblDogTitles)?
Thanks.
Regards,
SueB

I have a table called tbl_workorders. One of the fields on this table is optional but because the lookup table is on the one side of a 1-to-many relationship using an auto-number key it is requiring that this field be populated to create a record on the workorder table. This is a problem because the field is optional.
tbl_workorders
WorkOrrderID(PK)
Field1
Field2
Field3
Field4
JobSubtypeID (FK-many) <---- Lookup field
tbl_Subtypes
JobSubtypeID (PK-one)
SubtypeDesc
Should I set the SubtypeDesc field to a default value of "none"? I know this is storing unnecessary data, but is there another option?

Hi Everyone,
I hope someone can help.
I have a form with a combo boxes and a table with relevant list and additional field, fldDefaultDrive (Yes/No Field).
Currently in order to set the default value, I have used the following code for each default;
Private Sub Form_Load()
Forms!frmMediaLabeller!CboDriveName.DefaultValue = """D"""
End Sub
However, I want users to be able to go into the table and change the default value if thier CD player default Drive is anything but D: Drive. I have tried to replace the D above with an SQL statement but with no success.
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim Drivename As String
Drivename = SELECT tblMediaDrive.fldDrivename FROM tblMediaDrive WHERE (((tblMediaDrive.fldDefaultDrive)=-1));
Forms!frmMediaLabeller!CboDriveName.DefaultValue = """Drivename"""
End Sub
This is definetly not working, can anybody help, I have a feeling it is syntax but not sure where? :confused:

Afternoon all,
This is one I haven't come across before.
I have a table with a list of contact details/company details etc. I would like to send an email to each customer in this list in one fell swoop essentially asking the same question but tailored for that customer (or as easily as possible).
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks.

I have a form where the user selects a client from a combo box.
Doing so populates 4 controls with info about the client, using the Exit function of the cbo box. The Record Source of the form in question does not store this info; it comes from a different table.
This works fine.
When the record has been saved and I come back to it, however, those four controls do not display the client's information, since the combo box hasn't been exited.
What's the best way to get the form to repopulate those controls without having to reselect the combo entry?
Thanks a lot for the help!

I have quite a simple problem I think, but i don't know if I'm able to explain it properly.
I have three tables:
one for contacts
one for the groups contacts are a member of
and a junction table to solve the many to many relationship there.
What I want, is to create a form, with a combo box with a drop down list of groups. When a user selects a group, I'd like all the contacts (including *some* of their fields) to populate the list box below.
So a user can easily view the members of each group.
Does that make sense?

** Additional Note: Could I possibly just have a field in my main form that pulls data from another table? Warning: bad with code**
I'm not sure I'm looking at this correctly and have tried to figure it out (For about two weeks now). I really hope someone can help with this.
I have to add a "Multiplier" to my form. I have tried this numerous ways but it's not working properly.
What I need is to have a main form with a subform only displaying the relevant field (that being if this month/year and location match up between both the subform table and the main form that is displayed, then show this value in the subform on the main form). With this multiplier displayed, another field in the main form is then multiplied by this value.
Is this the right way to do this or no? I'm open to basically anything. It's just that the 'multiplier' changes from month to month and rather then have people manually enter in the multiplier to the main form for every day of the month, I'd rather a field be automatically populated and therefore the other field automatically multiplying by this.
Is this possible??

I have a number of tables in my database, and they're linked in with a form. I'd like to have a field in a form that's populated automatically based on what's inputted in a different field.For example, I've got one table with names and descriptions on widgets (name in column A, description in column B).
Widget 1 This widget is blue
Widget 2 This widget is green
Widget 3 This widget is yellow
When I'm in my form, I want when I select Widget 1 to have the corresponding text (This widget is blue) appear in a field below.

SQL related with Spec combo box:
Code:
SELECT S.Key, S.Spec FROM tblSpecs AS S ORDER BY S.Spec;
NotInList code:
Code:
Private Sub cboSpecs_NotInList(NewData As String, _
Response As Integer) ' MODIFY SPEC ENTRY.
10 Dim db As Database
[Code]....
1) For some reason, txtMessage is not displayed on the form when NotInList is processed. I see it get populated properly in debug mode, but it never gets on the form. But txtMessage gets displayed normally in Add and Delete events.
It seems to do with the way NotInList works because txtMessage is displayed if I use acDataErrContinue. But that's not what I want; it leaves the combobox list open and can't save record if I close the form.
2) DLookup is used to extract the old Spec value to display in the message. I can see the old Spec in debug mode in cboSpec.column, but Listindex is -1 and unusable.
I don't know how to point to the proper record in the list. The only other way I can think of is to loop through the list comparing the Key, and then extract the Spec.
I don't know if it's more efficient to use lookup or loop.
