Default Value As Current Semester

Jul 18, 2005

Our school writes its semesters as F05, W06, S06, J06. The letter stands for the season (fall, winter, spring, summer) and the two numbers are for the year. I have two fields on different tables. The first one uses the semester (F05) to tell us when they joined the club. The second uses only the year (2005) to tell us what year the race occured.

Anyway, what I want to do is set the default value as the current semester or year. I have tried setting the Format to yyyy and Default value to Year() but neither of those makes Access very happy, especially since Year() needs a number between the parenthesises. I don't want to have to change the defaults each semester if I can aviod it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Current User Default When Adding A Record

Feb 22, 2005

If I have a field in a table called "AddedBy", is there a way for this to default to the CurrentUser that's logged in to the database when a record is added to the table? I know you can use "Application.CurrentUser" both in the VB code and within SQL queries, but it doesn't seem to work if I put it in the "Default Value" box with the table editor. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. Thanks!

Default Combo Box Based On Default Table Value

Feb 13, 2006

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:

Default Day

Jan 25, 2005

I have a billing date on my form.
Each billing date should be on the 15th of any month (1/15 or 2/15 or 3/15, etc…)
Is there a way to default a day to the 15th and then make the user enter month and year?
Or if there is no way to default the date to the 15th, may be there is somehow I can check to see if day that user entered = 15th?
Thanks.
