Hello,
I'm setting up a delivery cost and location form. What i need this form to do is say i select Guildford for delivery i need the delivery cost text box below to say £12.50 without manually looking up the costs for that area and if it was Farnham then £24.00. What is the easiest way of doing it?
Thanks
I have a query that calculates Total Costs as (total fixed + total variable). total fixed is ( fixed hours * fixed rate) and total variable is (var hours * var rate) as expected....
But one of my records only has Var hours and a Var rate,therefore calculates total variable fine, but since this certain product doesnt have any fixed cost my TOTAL COSTS record for that product is left BLANK??
If there is no fixed cost than the total cost should just equal total variable....
When you enter a fixed cost and rate it works as expected though...any idead please i am on a deadline, im pretty sure VBA is the easiest way to go but i dont know how to go about it, this query is the heart of the whole Application, it is used primarily as the source for a few reports so this throws off my totals.
Hello All,
I am making a table/form that will look at the wieght of an item and work out a costing based on a number of different delivery companies and will find the cheapest, I would like any comments on how to go about this.

I have a variable cost that is a calculated field (as in the colum only exists in a query not as a colum in a table) that is variable hours * variable rate....the problem is ppl at my company sometimes dont know how the costs are goign to be broken down so they only put a Variable Cost....
and since they dont know the rate and hours my calculated field returns nothing...
how can i accomplish this, VBA might seem the way to go but i don't know how to use it for Access.....
so basically i need to calcualte the variable cost only if they enter something in var hours and var rate...other wise the var cost should just be what the users type ( so i i guess i have to make Var Costs a column in the table to give users the option of entering it)
I have a table with products and their costs per unit of measure.
some products are costed by weight and others by piece.
table looks something like this:
product
pcs
weight
unit of measure (EA or KGS)
cost
Query should look like this:
product
pcs
weight
Total Cost
Is it possible to write an expression that, depending on the unit of measure uses the pcs or weight field to calculate the total cost ??????
I have set up a query for an invoice to work out the sum of the field etc, but another one of the criteria is to search between 2 dates, how can i have the dates set as variables which i already have managed but be able to make the sum of the prices just be set between these variable dates?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to audit the freight bills charged by freight company which has over 20,000 consignment per week. The basic charge is base on distance and weight, something like this:
SYD-MEL <1kg $6
SYD-MEL<3kg $6.7
SYD-MEL<5kg $7
SYD-MEL<10kg$10
SYD-MEL>=10kg $12, $4 per kg rate
SYD-PER<1kg $10
.....
Based on the freight rate, how can I use Access to calculate the freight charge for each of the consignment ? Is there anyway to build some query or something to retrieve the freight rate and calculate the freight cost of each consignment?
Thanks
when i want to make a delivery note - on many cases the Delivery Note Number that shows has more than one house name, Plot Number and Product - at the moment it only shows one specific house name, plot number and product when i would like it to show every one of these under the delivery note number and delivery note date?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIm creating a database that we can enter jobs into.A job will consist of 3 seperate parts, Called "Trusses", "Walls", "Posis". They will each have a different delivery date and possibly a delivery time.
I am having trouble creating a report that gives me a week view, Monday to Friday, that shows what deliveries are on each day.The main thing here is there is one job entry, with the 3 parts. So there will need to be 3 seperate entries on the report for each part of that job.
I have a table with following structure :
Fabcode Price Stock Date Supplier
Fabcode : the unique code of the article
Price : the price by this supplier
Stock : quantities for the moment in stock by this supplier
Date : When there is no stock at this supplier, the estimated time of arrival
Supplier : name of the supplier
A selection for looking the lowest price for a supplier who has stock is no problem. But I want also the fastest delivery date when no one has stock.
Example
Fabcode Price Stock Date Supplier
Product1 5 3 A
Product1 6 4 B
Product1 7 5 C
Product1 8 6 D
Product2 14 73 A
Product2 12 56 B
Product2 15 14 C
Product3 30 0 30/12/13 A
Product3 24 0 B
Product3 25 0 26/12/13 C
Product3 32 0 26/12/13 D
Result :
Product1 5 3 A (because supplier A has stock and the lowest price)
Product2 12 56 B (because supplier B has stock and the lowest price)
Product3 25 0 26/12/13 C (because no one has stock, but supplier C has the shortest delivery time AND the lowest price)
Remark 1 : when there is no delivery date (and no stock), this supplier should be ignored for that product
Remark 2 : when no one has stock, the delivery date is priority, when 2 supplies has the same delivery date than the price is priority.
Can this in one query or SQL-statement ?
I have a sub report on my form to show all data needed for a delivery note.
these fields are :
House Type
Plot No
Product
Delivery Note No
when i use my query to search orders in my subreport - it will show the required data but will also show data i didnt search for ? why is this?
Sometimes my search results in the subreport show further down the subreport than the irrelevant data - all i would like is for it to show the specific data not the irrellevant data.
I have a form with a sub form (ms access). On the subform are a number of textboxes for input by the user. What I need is for the sub form to "remember" the last textbox it was in when the form closes. Then, when the form opens again, the focus in the sub form "returns" to the last text box it was at when the user wants to continue entering data.... This resolves a problem with the user overwriting existing data on the subform because they "forgot" to go to the textbox where further data needs to be entered.
I set up an "extra" field in the database, and included it on the sub form so it could be used as areference point. The text box is called "NameFld". However, my further attempts at resolving this issue via vba are not working.
Any help would be appreciated.
I would like to create a form to allow the user to choose a location to place a file. I would prefer to have a browse command button so when he/she clicks the windows explorer view opens and the user can select the location. I have seen this done, but I am not sure where to start. If anyone has an example to show me, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
I have one text box with the name of nametxt and one it's label with name of namelabel. I want to relocate this text box with it's label when the button02 is clicked to the new location. Thus i have tried using this code:
Code:
Private Sub Command02_Click()
nametxt.Top = 0.2083
nametxt.Left = 1.0833
namelabel.Top = 0.2083
namelabel.Left = 0.5833
End Sub
But this code is not working correctly and relocate the text box to the up left corner of form. How fix this issue.
Greetings. :)
I am trying to position opened forms so that they are cascaded on the screen. I have discovered the movesize action (for the DoCmd) and Move property of a form (for Acc 2002/2003). However, if the application is opened up on different monitors (e.g.; 17" or 19"), the relative location of the opened form is not the same (i.e.; on the bigger monitor the opened form is too far over to the right and too high).
What I want to do is ...
When the subsequent (or second) form is opened up I would like to find the absolute location of the first form (always centered). This way I will be able to reposition the second and third forms relative to the first form.
Is this possible?
I'm having trouble referencing the first form from within the second form. The first form is still open, but they are not linked forms (not parent/child). I've tried:
forms("firstformname").left
forms("firstformname").top
but this does not work.
I've gone to online help and I've looked around in the newsgroups. But can't find any info. Anybody out there will suggestions?

SueB :confused:
hi guys,
would someone please tell me if it is possible to locate the form in a specific location on screen, e.g. starting from top left corner or basically have the form open in centre of screen?!
I have created my database in Access and now trying to make the forms appear on screen as neet as possible. I have a main form which is on screen all the time and it should cover the whole screen. I have set the size of the form but everytime i open it it doesnt cover the screen as it does not start from the top left corner!
i also have a few pop up forms which i want them to appear in the middle of screen. how can i do this?!!!
i would appreciate any help or suggestions on alternative soloutions!
Thanks
I have stumbled through making a few new forms and tables for my new job, and have done alright so far (even if it takes me forever to do so), but there is one thing that keeps tripping me up. I just cannot figure out how to do it, even by looking at the designs and properties of other tables/forms.
Part of my form requires me to input location details. A table is setup with every City, State and Zipcode for usage on the form. Our old form was designed to auto-fill (is that even the right term?) the City and State fields upon entry of a Zipcode. These are all coming off the same table, and it works on our old form, but I cannot seem to replicate it on the new one.
I have 2 other issues with the form, and they are also both related to this auto-fill/auto-lookup hangup. Another table is set up with employee IDs, and their corresponding Last name, First name and Middle Initial. I'd like to be able to type in the ID and have the next field automatically enter the corresponding name. Similarly, I need to enter certain other data, and I would like the next field to fill in a short description of said data.
Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction? Like I said, I've pretty much made everything else work by learning from the designs of other tables/queries/forms we have, and by trial and error. But this final hitch seems insurmountable.
I'm making updates for the front end then i send it to 10 pc's in the office then i should change the backend location via linked table manager for every pc
So is there any way to let the user choose the backend location when he open the database nad then it will automatically update the tables link
I have code that finds the current position of the mouse on the screen in X,Y coordinates.
I am curious if there is something similar that can let me know the X coordinate (basically the .left function but for the screen) of a listbox?
I have an inventory of equipment that is assigned to different locations. When repair is needed, the equipment is brought in and swapped with a loaner. How can I update on a form the location change from "A" to "Shop" that will show up on the related equipment table? I have "Location" in the table, but don't know if I need something to the effect of "NewLocation" to assist in showing the equipment swap.

i had a database that allowed me from a form to store a file location for a record on a form, so i any time i could access the record, and then open the file, usually a pdf, it wasnt stored as a hyperlink, but as long text
i made the mistake of not copying the files for safe keeping when i got a permanent position..i am now back self employed, i need to recreate the database.
Hi folks,
I have 50 locations spread over the UK and each site has a red, amber or green status based on several criteria. What i want to do is have a form with a map of the UK and have each location represented on the map with it's red, amber or green status based on coordinates in the country i guess.
Thanks

How do I find the file location of the current database?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi all.
I have been working on an Inventory Database over the past few weeks and I have run into a problem.
Currently I am designing the database to use the common way to calculate on-hand inventory levels (Latest Stocktake(cycle count) + Received - Used). The problem comes when I am trying to calculate this value.
A solution that seems to work is to take stocktake for a given product using the ProductID and date. I have a child table linked to this one to show the quantity and locations of the product. However, with this method, I will have to count the inventory for every location the product is in when the stocktake is taken. This method may work, but accidents may happen and an employee may forget to count both locations when taking stock. Then current inventory levels will be way off.
Is there an easier or more efficient way to do this?

Okay trying to get at an mdb that I have copied from the live network drive onto my own machine. Each time I try and look at a table in design or data mode it keeps trying to locate the table on the network drive.
How do I tell access to look at the copy on local drive? Using version 2003, and don't remember this issue from version 97.
