I'm building a number of systems that I'm trying to make compatible in the USA and UK I have sorted all The Date And Currency Formats so the system Can Now work Completely With Both.
But At present The Systems Designed To Work With The UK VAT System Would anybody be able to give me some guidance with what I would need to make the tax system Correct for the USA As Well As The UK.
Many thanks in advance

how to use f functions in POS systems?
Eg F7 edits records in a form,F8 opens a customer account,...
Good Afternoon,
I have been given an access database system which runs using about 7 access databases, linked tables etc, quite complex. When a new user installs the system from a DVD the user needs to provide a password. This password is filtered to all 7 access databases so they all use the same username and password.
The problem I am having is when the user runs this application again they are prompted for their password. Everytime they click on an option which is another access database they are again asked for their password. I am trying to figure out a way once the user has logged in once on start up no matter which option they select and no matter how many time they select it while the main appliction is running they are not asked for their password. Is this possible or totally outside the scope of Access databases.
Hi everybody
It is my first post here :)
I have a simple (I hope :) ) question.
I have two tables in my database.
Tables are simple and the structure is the same
Tables contain some different and some the same records
I want to create a new table (or Raport maybe) which contains differences (different records which are not in both tables)
How can it be done in the easy way?
Sorry for such stupid question but I have tried to find this forum for similar issue with the easy solution but no luck.
Thx for the reading
:)
I have a Table named WorkUnit1234567-01-01-07. We'll say the info on this table is from 1 January. I will then have a Table named WorkUnit1234567-02-01-07. We'll say the info on this table is from 1 February. Both of these tables will have the same fields. What I would like to do is compare Table WorkUnit1234567-01-01-07 with WorkUnit1234567-02-01-07 and only show the differences between the first table and the last table. Any ides on how to accomplish this?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi. I am in the process of loading nursing license numbers into my database. The spreadsheet that I am importing from does not use the exact same names as the ones in my database, i.e. Smith, Deb in my database is Smith, Debora in the spreadsheet and I can't figure out the code or procedure to use to tell the database that these names are actually for the same record. Is it possible to do this and if so, how?
Thank you!

G'day,
I am using ACCESS to compare roles for users on our SAP system before and after a QAS refresh. I have two tables, one listing roles before and one listing roles after the refresh, how do I have to relate these two tables and what type of query should I run to present me with a list of roles that appear in one table and not the other, since I have two tables there may be roles in table a that arent in table b, as well as roles in table b that arent in table a. I need to see both these. I also dont want to see any roles that appear in both tables.
any help?

Hello,
I have 2 fields that are supposed to have the same information for each record. I got the information from different sources, which is the reason for having 2 fields. I wanted to make sure that the information was accurate. Turns out, that some of it isn't accurate--all the fields don't match.
Here's a little example of what I have:
|___TITLE___|___ISSN 1___|___ISSN 2___|
|__TITLE 1__|__12345678__|__12345678__|
|__Title 2__|__22224444__|__23224322__|
|__Title 3__|__98765432__|__98765432__|
As you can see, the ISSN numbers for Title 1 and 3 match. There's no problem there. I want a query that would list all those like Title 2, where the ISSN numbers don't match. Then I'd have a list of all of the problem Titles, and I could look up the real ISSN numbers.
Thanks

Hi accessors,
I have 1 permissions related Q.
If I create msaccess db by calling the app through its icon, i get a db with following permission items :
Administrators(compNameAdministrators)
System
user(compNameuser)
but if I create it through rightclick> new> ms_office_access_application, I get a db with:
Administrators(compNameAdministrators)
Everyone
System
user(compNameuser)
Users(compNameUsers)
VS Developers(compNameVS Developers)
Why /the hell/ those differences btw the same kind of files ? :mad:

Here is the problem
I have a tblOrders that has 1800 records with 31 fields primary key tblOrder which is a number.
Periodically users export data from SAP into a spreadsheet, which are changes to the original data but may not contain the exact same fields as the master tblOrders. The data in this spread sheet identifies changes and may contain aprox half of the fields that are contained in the master tblOrders. The field names however (in the spreadsheet) will be of the same type as in tblOrders.
What I would like to do is identify differences between the tblOrders records and the records in the spreadsheet, and then update the tblOrders to show the changes.
how would you proceed? Maybe create a new table by importing the excel spreadsheet into access and then somehow querying the differences and updating the master. If anyone has done anything like this b4 please could you update me...
Cheers in advance.
I'm currently working on a report to show the differences between two records (in this case, Documents). Each Document contains a number of paragraphs which are separate objects within my database. The purpose of this is to narrow down which paragraphs require reading (i.e. remove/highlight which are duplicates).
I've set up the report to show only the paragraphs from two selected documents (I don't think there is need for more than two, but how to select two or more documents for the query), and currently I have set the 'Hide duplicates' which kind of works but not the result I was hoping for - it only hides the related field and leaves the original in tact.
I am looking for a method that hides both duplicate records (not just the duplicated fields) if possible, failing that a method that will conditionally format the remaining duplicate or all duplicates.
Looks like the Hide Duplicates hasn't quite worked either - I have two fields which are clearly different and it has hidden the longer one. Likewise another later paragraph is not duplicated and it has hidden another which isn't duplicated. If it makes any difference the field is of type 'Memo'
Basically I would like to populate column three "OUTCOME" according to the following logic:
if train A10 has multiple destinations (we see this in the second column) then in outcome I woudl like to have "multiple destinations" if the destination is only one (in case of trains A15 and A16) , then I would like to have that city in column 3 "OUTCOME".
Hi,
I'm just wondering if there is any differences in writing queries in vba in different versions of access. i'm developing a search function in access 2000, but it doesn't seem to be working. however, the same code in access 2003 works fine.
Here's an extract of the code when the search button is clicked (I'm getting table information, attribute/field information and condition they're specifying from the user. The result is then displayed in a subform):
Private Sub cmdFind_Click()
Dim searchSQL As String
Me.cmbTable.SetFocus
searchSQL = "select * from ENGINEERS INNER JOIN TEL_CABLING ON ENGINEERS.EngID = TEL_CABLING.EngID where " & Me.cmbTable.Text & "."
Me.cmbAttribute.SetFocus
searchSQL = searchSQL & Me.cmbAttribute.Text
Me.txtCondition.SetFocus
searchSQL = searchSQL & Me.txtCondition.Text
Me.subfrmTest.Form.RecordSource = searchSQL
Me.subfrmTest.Form.Requery
End Sub
The part in red is the part that is highlighted whenever i run it in access 2000. The error message is: " You entered an experession that has an invalid reference to the property RecordSource "
Can anyone tell my why it's like that and how i can fix it to work for access 2000?
Thanks I've also enclosed a picture of the form, so you can get a feel of what it looks like.

The project I'm working on is an action list with the following tables;
itemnumber - autonumber PK
originator - text
dateentered - date/time
actiondescription - text
assignedto - text
targetdate - date/time
forecastdate - date/time
actual date - date/time
remarks - text
due - text (not sure if this will be correct)
Basically, when a new task is entered, all info will be manually filled in except last 3 fields. targetdate needs to be locked after entry, and forecastdate initially set to targetdate.
"due" should show how many days between dateentered and forecast date, and preferably update everytime the DB is opened. IF the current date is beyond the forecast date, "due" should read "OVERDUE".
Changing forecastdate would obviously reset the "due" field to show how many days left to complete. If a date is entered into actualdate, then "due" should show COMPLETE.
Reports will be generated based on what is coming due, what is over due, and not show what is already complete.
I have 2 fields on my form service interval combo box and vehicle mileage text box I m trying to create a pop up message on there values
if service interval is 12,000 and the mileage entered in the vehicle mileage is over 12,000 then show pop up message.
this works but I'm sure its wrong don't no why I need the -1 anyways here's what I have
Code:
If Me.Vehicle_Mileage.Value > Me.Cboserviceinterval.Column(1) - 1 Then
msgbox "test"
end if
Now my problem what I can't get it to work . I still want the pop up message, if say the service interval is 12,000 and mileage entered in the vehicle mileage is 1,000 miles below the service interval I still want the same pop message but if 2,000 or more below service interval then no pop up message .
I have tried a number of sequences with no avail....
I have two identical Access tables, for example tblDataYesterday and tblDataToday. The data from tblDataToday has updated data changes in it that are different from tblDataYesterday. I have a maximum of 100 fields to review. I want to compare the two tables and display in a query the differences between the data from both tables.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to count how many of the "same" and "differences", as well as calculate the percentages of the number of "same" over the total amount. To clarify, I work at a nursing home, and I need to calculate the number of people who were admitted to our facility and then to the hospital for the same diagnosis, and a different diagnosis. Then, out of the total number of people who were admitted to the hospital from our facility, I need to calculate how many of those people had the same diagnosis or a different diagnosis.
Also, I need to categorize these diagnosis by each type of diagnosis.
I occasionally run across this term. If the members of this group have a clear boundary between themselves and members of other groups, then please tell me the names of the other groups. If what members of those groups work on is not intuitively obvious, than will you give me a super brief description of what those group do? Thanks so much.
Regarding the term I asked about (and the others presumably), is this term relevent today? Does it have a precise meaning that a professional should clearly understand. Thanks if you can help.
I have had to use my first crosstab queries.
I now understand that when opening and saving crosstab queries Access (2010) runs that query to ascertain the column names. Unless you hard-code them. Running the query takes at least 20 minutes.
I have hard-coded where I can, but one report takes arbitrary dates so I can't hard-code them.
I believe that turning off AutoCorrect might make a difference to whether the query runs - but I don't want to turn it off.
I have a sub form in DataSheet view and I would like to lock the design so that the User should not change the layout
Even when I set the property of the Datasheet “Allow Design Changes: Design View Only” users are able to unhide the hidden columns and they can also change the size of the column by dragging the column end line
Does any one know how to lock the design of datasheet ( I am using this sub form datasheet for data entry but do not want users to change the layout)
Thanks

I'm going to make up names and values -- I'm interested in the structure.
Table ALPHA:
COLA DAT1 DAT2 DAT3
1 5 7 9
2 4 14 8
Table BETA:
COLA_IND DAT1 DAT2 DATN
1 a b c
Table CHARLIE:
COLA_IND DAT1 DAT2
2 d e
Table DELTA:
COLA_IND DAT1 DAT2
2 f g
Ok, the idea here is that the data in table ALPHA contains data with COLA a key such that selecting 2 would yield the data row "4, 14, 8."
Now, COLA_IND is a "COLA" key for table ALPHA (sorry, I can never remember which side is called the foreign key). So, from tables BETA, CHARLIE and DELTA, I can access any row in ALPHA based on the key "COLA_IND"
Here's the fun part. When I build my query, it wants to use an inner join on the keys from all these tables... In order words:
SELECT blah blah blah INNER JOIN blah ON (ALPHA.COLA=BETA.COLA_IND) AND (ALPHA.COLA=CHARLIE.COLA_IND) AND (ALPHA.COLA=DELTA.COLA_IND)
What I'm looking to do is expand BETA, CHARLIE and DELTA with the information from ALPHA based on the key COLA_IND. I don't think this is doing what I want.
Any comments?
Thanks in advance...
Hey,
I've got this problem and im 95% sure its going to need a query in order to achieve this answer im looking for.
I'm creating a Software Licensing Management db and its all working lovely. However my only problem remains is the graphical representation (text box within one of the forms) of howmany licenses are/aren't(doesnt matter if this number is a +/- number) available.
In order to achieve this answer I dont think you'l need the table structure of any of my tables other than these two:
tblLicenseInformation
License_ID
LicenseDescription
NumOfLicensesPurch
SoftwareOverview_ID
tblHardwareSoftwareLicense
HSL_ID
Hardware_ID
Vender_ID
Software_ID
AppEdition_ID
AppVersion_ID
SoftwareOverview_ID
License_ID
However I would like to add a column to either of these tables named 'Availability' or something similar which will show the licenses available.
I've tried a number of Update/Append queries but all have failed. I want this Available running variable held within the table due to it not changing to much of the current db design as i baisically finished the project and they asked for it! any ideas of how to efficiently achieve this will be much appreciated!
cheers
I'm looking for a keyboard shortcut to expand the columns in "design view" of a query.
What I mean by this is rather than selecting all of the columns and double clicking to see the entire text, I'd like to be able to a shortcut.
The entire process as I see it involves 3 steps so I will need thesolution to the 3rd step.
(1) [ctrl+spacebar] to select initial column
(2) [shift+arrows] to select all of the columns I need
(3) [keyboard shortcut] will expand all of the columns "field" names to the size of the column heading
Alternatively, if you know of a shortcut that will expand the columns without having to select them first I'll take it!!
hello everyone
i found myself trying to write this outer join query and i realised that probably i need to improve my design rather than write the query! so here goes
i've created a form which a user can navigate through to look at various jobs which have been done (its a loft insulation database)
now one of the things the users need to do is to arbitarily choose jobs for which they are going to phone up the customer and check the work was completed satisfactorily for QA purposes
the table containing information about the jobs has a yes/no field "selectedForQA" which comes up as a checkbox on the form so they can just check the jobs they decide to check up on
i wrote a query which runs on click of a a command button "send selected to QA" which is just an append query sticking primary keys of the jobs table into another table TBL_QAList which has other fields 'contacted', 'satisfactory' and 'notes' for them to check when they have phoned the customer
of course i can't simply rely on the Append query because the jobs previouly loaded into QAList will still be checked and the append will try and append the same data twice cauzing a primary key violation
i don't doubt that it must be possible to only append those records which aren't already in the table (i believe its an outer join to return the records in neither of two tables? - i could then append the results of that query?) but anyhow the fact that i'd have to do something of that sort suggests to me my design is screwed up in the first place
i know that its bad to have the same data in two tables but all i would have replicated here would be the primary key and when i present the data to the user i use the table relationships to get them all the contact details etc that doesn't get copied across tables
maybe the better solution is to have no QAList table just the jobs table (with sentToQA field) and a QADone table - then the form the user sees can get its data from a query which finds those jobs for which Jobs.selectedForQA = True AND which are not in the QADone table and when they check the done box on their form the record gets added to QADone
have i just answered my own question or is there a yet better way of doing this? or was i on the right track in the first place?
I have 5 plants (when this was orginally created there was 1) I need to develop a report showing defect by suppliers. A user would select a supplier from a combo box, and using a query would show each reject number by supplier. I can get query to work, for only 1 plant as soon as I select another plant no records display. Any ideas
View 10 Replies View RelatedI have some tables that are set up as follows (these are not the actual names of the tables and fields, I'm using generic names so that I don't get a bunch of questions about the setup to begin with; I believe they are set up in the best possible way):
Table1 has a one to many relationship with Table2
Table1 has a one to many relationship with Table3
Table2 has a many to many relationship with Table3

Can anyone offer some advice on the best way to set up some forms for data entry with these tables? I think having Table1 be the recordsource for a parent form, having Table2 be the recordsource for one subform, and having Table3 be the recordsource of another subform would work for the one to many relationship between Table1 and Table2 and the one to many relationship between Table 1 and Table3. But I can't figure out how to then include the many to many relationship between Table2 and Table3.
