Hi, im currently under going a Driving school project database. I have the following tables, Client, Instructor, Lesson and Lesson Type. However i feel like i want to go into more depth, e.g. make tables like recording sections of theory and practical tests, etc.
Currently my database with 4 tables is in 3rd normal form.. but say if i had 10 tables linking via relationship in query, what normal form is this? Is this gd practice or bad practice? :confused::confused:
This has been going through my head lately and im wanting to get take alot into consideration for my project. This might be absurd question to say in the forum but hope anyone can help me and explanation for me.:o
Thanks and much appreciated! :)

I need to have a table like this:
I have a very simple (it has to be) database which holds names, address’s and telephone numbers (I told you). What I want to do is this when I come to the Town field, a drop down list is displayed with a few local town names (Peterborough, Huntingdon etc) and the respective STC code (01733, 01480 etc). When I select Peterborough in the town box the STC code 01733 is placed in the STD field automatically. I have two tables, one with the address’s (including Town and STC) field and the second one with two fields Town and STC. How do I get the two tables or forms to work together. Any help would be appreciated, many thanks.
View 1 Replies View Relatedhave a table call 'ClinicTimeTable' there is a column call 'ClinicDate', another column called 'DrID', different row could have same 'ClinicDate' and 'DrID', so I wanna to count how many Drs in a particular day, I have following code, but it acts so werid, it onlys work for some dates! say if I put 02/02/2006 then I can get the number of DrID by observing 'count', however, if I put 01/02/2006 like below, count is 0! but there is some records with 02/02/2006 (I open the table directly in Access), how can this happening? how can it only partly works? it will make more sense if it don't work at all.
Dataset ds = new Dataset();
query = "SELECT DISTINCT DrID FROM ClinicTimeTable WHERE ClinicDate = #01/02/2006#" ;
OleDbDataAdapter myAdapter = new OleDbDataAdapter( query, oleDbConnection1 );
myAdapter.Fill ( ds );
int count = dds.Tables[0].Rows.Count;
any helps will be so appreciated! I am going mad at this problem!
by the way, i just tested that if any day in Jan 2006 is fine, say if i search 23/02/2006 or 22/02/2006 is fine... can't imagine why...
I have many queries that all do the same thing. The problem is that they're connected to specific controls on a form, so I have to make a new query everytime I make a new form to perform the same task as the others. This would be eliminated if there was a way to use the criteria the same way you would in code, like Me!controlname. Is there anyway possible to make these queries more universal so that they can be used by many forms?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form, with some controls, a subform and some command buttons. In the OnKeyDown Event of the subform, i put the following:
If Me.NewRecord And Keycode = 9 Then
Me.Parent.cmdAddSong.SetFocus
End If
However, as soon as i hit the tab key when i am in the new record of the continuous sub form, rather than it moves to cmdAddSong, the focus is set to the control after it (cmdDeleteSong). Similarly, if i try to set the focus, to the cmdDeleteSong, after i hit the tab key, the focus will move to a next control (cmdAddAlbums).
Any ideas why does the focus does not go to the control i specified in the Me.Parent.Control, but it goes to Me.Parent.Control + 1 ?
Thank You
gosh, I can't believe I forgot simple thing. when I'm opening a form in Access it automatically goes to new/blank form, I'm try to make it go to first record instead and can't remember how I didin't before.
Thx for help
This is a lot like my last post, but not exactly...
I have a table with some really strange fields. They all have 4-8 digits, and those digits stand for the date--but not for simple mmddyy. This is much more complicated than that. Each 4 or 2-digit number set stands for something different.
|___START____|_____END____|
|___196303___|___199912___|
|___192603___|___199910___|
|___193101___|___199812___|
|___195606___|___200112___|
|___192801___|___1999_____|
is a sample of the numbers in the fields. Here is the way the website says to define them:
NOTE: The seventh and eighth columns of each document describe the initial and most recent coverage dates using the SICI standard, which defines standard month codes for seasonal and quarterly issues. (A full list of the month codes used for seasonal and quarterly issues appears below.) Dates may appear as a year (1989), a year and month (197601), or a year, month, and day (19331229). Sometimes the format for initial and most recent coverage dates may differ due to changes in publication frequency over the history of the journal. For example, coverage may start with an annual issue (1898) but finish with a monthly issue (199912) or coverage may start with a monthly issue (193002) but finish with a supplemental issue containing no corresponding month (1972).
Month Codes Used in JSTOR Delimited Lists
01=January02=February03=March04=April05=May06=June07=July08=August09=September10=October11=November12=December20=Winter (when it appears at the beginning of a year)21=Spring22=Summer23=Fall24=Winter (when it appears at the end of a year)25=Early Spring26=Late Spring27=Early Fall28=Late Fall29=Early Summer30=Late Summer31=1st quarter32=2nd quarter33=3rd quarter34=4th quarterSo, if it's a 6 digit number, that's going to be 4 for the year, and 2 for one of the codes above.
If it's an 8 digit number, it's going to be 4 for the year, 2 for the month, and 2 for the day.
If it's a 4 digit number, it's just 4 for the year.
There are 665 of these, and I'll need to update them each time I download a new version of the file. So.... can anyone help me? If I could get the numbers into separate cells (at least temporarily), I could do a find and replace and add my final results back together in one cell when it's finished. I would want something that would put the first 4 digits into a cell, then the first 2 digits of what's left into a cell, and then the last two digits of what's left into another cell. I don't mind running 3 different queries.
Thanks,
Siena
I've been using Access 2002 since approx 2003 now. I won't upgrade as I've used 2007 and don't like the new interface.
I'm competent with it and regularly build locally used databases or databases for websites.
About 2 months ago my copy starting pissing me off. Everytime I click on any of the "create" links, it plays an alert sound. Anytime I click on an already created query/table/report etc it plays an alert sound. The only other time it happens is if I click on the button in the toolbar in windows to open a previously minimised window.
There seems to be no option to turn this off or on anywhere, so I'm completely stumped. It's not critical but it's bloody annoying. Anyone else had this and figure it out or anyone simply know how to stop it doing it?
I could obviously turn the speakers off but I like to listen to music whilst I work, and shouldn't have to either!
Thanks in advance
PS - My "Provide feedback with sounds" option is set to OFF
Hey all, I've been banging my head all day trying to find a method and have nothing. Perhaps someone could guide me towards the right path... Here's a generic simplification of what I have:
ID# - Friend
1 - Fred
1 - George
2 - Fred
3 - Bill
3 - Ray
3 - Scott
Here's what I'm hoping to end up with:
ID# - Friends
1 - Fred, George
2 - Fred
3 - Bill, Ray, Scott
or even this would get me there:
ID# - Friend1 - Friend2 - Friend3
1 - Fred - George
2 - Fred
3 - Bill - Ray - Scott
I'm dealing with thousands of id#'s and thousands of possible friend's names.
Any help out there? If I need to explain myself better, just ask and i'll write some more...
thanx for any help you can offer...
Jim
P.S. I'm only a lite-weight in programming. I've been trying with a thousand different query methods so far using temporary tables and anything else I could possibly imagine...

We are creating a simple database to maintain driver license information for faculty, staff, and students who use cars from the university’s motor pool.
To do this, I have created two tables: tblDRIVER and tblLICENSE.
The fields in tblDRIVER are:
pkfDriverIndex
strLastName
strFirstName
strInitial
strAddress1
strAddress2
strCity
strState
strZIP
datBirthDate
The fields in tblLICENSE are:
pkfUpdateIndex
fkfDriverIndex
datDateUpdated
strState
strLicNumber
datExpirationDate
ynViolations
ynActive
Information about the driver is stored in tblDRIVER and the driver’s license information is stored in tblLICENSE. Periodically, we run a report that identifies drivers whose licenses are due to expire within a certain number of days. All this works fine.
My problem is that I am trying to create a lookup form that will load from a data entry form that will permit the Motor Pool Clerk to look up a driver by name and review the licensing information (which appears as a subform).
All this sort of works- I am using a combo box (based on a query) to look up a driver’s last name (which it does) and to populate all the driver’s information on the look-up form (including license information in a subform). Currently, the combo box locates the driver (including the unique index, last, and first names), and populates the form with first and last name but the rest of the information is not displayed on the look up form. Worse still, sometimes one driver’s last name matches up with the first name of the next driver listed in the table! This seems to happen only if a look up is attempted more than once. What gives.
Thanks for the help.
I have an expression in one column of my query and It keeps returning a negative result and there are no negative numbers in the source data. Can anyone help. I just want to sum the sums the two IIf expressions, but its not working. Thanks
Other Qty: Sum(IIf([QSum]![ACCOUNT]=2 And [QSum]![ICUNIT]=95 And [QSum]![UNITS]="ITEM(S)",[QSum]![QUANT],Null)) Or Sum(IIf([QSum]![ACCOUNT]=2 And [QSum]![ICUNIT]=100 And [QSum]![UNITS]="ITEM(S)",[QSum]![QUANT],Null))
I have a problem about deleting record from a form, it will be grateful if anyone can help me with this.
Here are my tables:
Par_tor: some personal details such as ID, name, phone NO., etc
Par_tion: the record of who has participated which activities.
Activity: name of the activity.
My problem is: the main form of the my form contains the stuffs in table Par_tor, and the subform contains the stuffs in Par_tion, so the user can view these participator's details and the activities they have participated.
In the main form, I also wanted to created a delete button to delete an entire record (including a participator's detail + his/her participation record) at once, but it didn't work since the participation was in the Par_tion table not in the Par_tor.
So is there any way that I can delete these records at once?
Hi
I have a form with a "Clear Form" button on to allow the user to delete the record they are working on without updating the database. A question window pops up asking if they are sure they want to delete the record, if they answer yes the form will clear and re-load without updating the database.
The OnClick Event Procedure will not allow me to delete the data, it always saves. I've tried
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
If MsgBox("Are you sure you want to abandon changes to this record?", vbExclamation + vbYesNo, "LogBook 2002") = vbYes Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
Else
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
End If
but I get the error "2046 - The command or action DeleteRecord isn't available now." Is there another way, a better way?
I have two tables (same data but slightly different attribute structure) with a one-to-one relationship (the join field is "ID"). There are 69 matching records in these tables. How can I delete these matching records from table A, while leaving them alone in table B?
I'm confused because I brought both tables into a select query, created a join from ID to ID (within in the query's design view), and then added all fields from table A to the query. I then ran the select query and saw the 69 records from table A in the query's data view that I wanted to delete, highlighted all records and clicked delete. However, this action deleted the 69 matching records from TABLE B, not Table A!!! How is this possible? What should I do instead? Thanks.
A strange request but I hope someone can help with this one
I have a table (tbl_Econ) where I have to delete a specified number of records from a table. It does not matter which records as long as I delete the exact number
e.g On a form text box I enter the number or records to be deleted (e.g.6000).
The table (tbl_Econ) has 8000 records, so I have to delete 6000 records. I need to be able to do this automatically :eek:
How can I go about deleting records fully? So that there autonumber, etc can be used again without access moaning.
Thanks :D
I have a query (Query1) which returns results In one field recordID.
How do I delete records in a table where the RecordID is in the list Query1.recordID?
Thanks

I am Developing a simple VBA program for Access for my final year of my Degree and I have come up with a problem that I don’t seem to be able to fix.
I have create tables using SQL
SQL = "CREATE TABLE tblInvoiceLines" & _
"(InvoiceNo LONG, PartNo LONG," & _
"Quantity LONG)"
DoCmd.RunSQL (SQL)
Deleting this with the below code works,
SQL = ""
'This will delete the Invoice Line Table
SQL = "DROP TABLE tblInvoiceLines"
DoCmd.RunSQL (SQL)
But once I alter the table with the below code the Delete command doesn’t work, does anyone know how I can fix this problem?
SQL = "ALTER TABLE tblInvoiceLines " & _
"ADD CONSTRAINT fkInvoiceNo " & _
"FOREIGN KEY NO INDEX (InvoiceNo) REFERENCES " & _
"tblInvoices (InvoiceNo) " & _
"ON UPDATE CASCADE " & _
"ON DELETE CASCADE "
conDatabase.Execute SQL
Thanks

Hi All,
I have a very simple name and address DB. What I would like to know is "What is the easiest way of finding a record using the switchboard and then deleting that record from the DB?"
I am an Access novice so nice easy replies would be appreciated.
Many Thanks

Hi All
I have 2 tables "Customers" and "Work in Progress (WIP)"
The "WIP" table is result of the form "WIP" where I input all my data for each job completed. I use a lookup control "JobNo" to input the customer details from the table "Customers".
The objective is to call up the customer details into "WIP" add the job details, then on save, delete the record in the "Customers" table.
If this is possible, could you give me some ideas how.
Thanks in Advance.
