Hi,
I have a field in my query that displays the occupation of an employee. I have another field with an "if" expression, which displays the occupation if certain criteria is met. However, it displays the occupation ID and not the name.
The occupation ID is an autonumber, but I just want to see the name.
Is there an easy way to do this
I have a query with a Date field for EndDate (the dates for end-of-week, Fridays in our case) and another field for Sales (number of sales, not dollars).I want to add 4 calculated fields that represent weeks and have the Sales appear in the correct column (field) for that date.So I will have columns for 10 July 15, 17 July 15, 24 July 15 and 31 July 15 and I want the Sales for each record to land in the correct date column, based on the EndDate column. (The 4 fields is just for the sake of the example, I will actually be having dozens of these calculated date fields).I tried to do it by setting up the 4 calculated fields like:
10Jul15: Sales
and then adding Criteria like:
EndDate = #10/07/2015#
It doesnt work.
Hello everyone, I have some experience with access but am having difficulty at the moment with a command. This is what I am wanting to do;
I have some checkboxes which when checked I want a separate field to display a number. i.e. When 'Taster' is checked 'Overall Price' will show '£225' but also when 'Meal' is checked 'Overall Price' shows '£500'.
Can anyone walk me through this please?

Can anyone create a form with a combobox where you can select a form and this form will display in an static area.
Then you can choose another form in the combobox and it will display in the same spot.
the forms that will be displayed are exactly the same size.
This would help me very much
Thanks

I'm working on a MS Access database, there's one table linked from a ODBC database.
In the ACESS table, I defined 2 fields,A and B, each of them maps the field in the ODBC table. A field C in the ODBC database can return a unique value with both the info. A and B.
We want the C value can be automatically show up after we input the A. B value in a MS ACCESS form.
It sounds very easy. and if we use asp it should be easy. However, I just get stucked here. Whether I can do it in MS ACCESS.
Can anyone help?
Hope someone can point me in the right direction. I have a field on a form and if I tab out of it without entering any data and go to the next field, I could do with a message box coming up stating you must enter a value in this field, and then have the curser go back into this field.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm working on an existing 2010 database that has a table that stores PDF's in an OLE field. The boss wants to be able to see the PDF on a form along with the other fields in the database. He doesn't want the pdf to open up in a separate window in Adobe PDF viewer. He doesn't want to have to switch between 2 windows because he's comparing data from the other fields in the record to what's on the PDF. He doesn't have dual monitors and doesn't want that either.
when I put the PDF field on a form all I get is an ICON that has to be double clicked on to open but I need it to display the pdf or at leas part of the PDF so he can scroll down to view the whole pdf. I thought about using a subform or tabs and putting a web browser control to display the pdf. I've seen examples of how to set a web browser control URL when the pdf is in an attachment field but I haven't been able to find any examples of how to view the pdf in a web browser control or any code to actually show the pdf on the form from an OLE field.
I know storing the PDF in an attachment field is the best way to do this and I've let the boss know. My only task is to display it on a form and not to redesign the database.
I would like to display the value of a field [Name] based on the value of another field in the same Table [Position] in a report. My goal is to have a visual representation of data that changes based on the changes to the value of the [Position] field.

Hi,
I am looking for a way to customize fields to be hidden or not depending on user in forms or reports.
Any idea ?
I wanted to explore the customisation of each query but there must be an easier way to save personal parameters somehow so that the user would go through the forms and hide the non necessary fields once and we would then save somewhere these settings for each user.
Has anybody already experienced such a request ?

Hi All,
I have a field called PRICE and obviously it is a NUMERIC field as it need to perform calculations such as calculating Total Quantity * Price etc. At the moment the PRICE is inputted manually by the User on a Form and when it has no Price it is simple left blank.
What I wish to include is that on the REPORT when the field is empty it writes the text FOC instead of leaving it empty.
Can you please anyone suggest a way of doing this.
Thanks any help will be much appreciated :o
so i'm trying to create a report that only displays certain fields per record based on another field in that record. To clarify: [Type] is a numeric field holding either 1, 2, or 3. I have a function that is instructed to display (ie, change from not visible to visible) a certain combination of fields depending on the number in [Type] when the form is opened. I assume I would have to go through all the records individually (do loop until), but i'm not sure if this works in a report.
is there any way to have different fields displayed for different records within the same report??
Thanks

Hi all, I'm new to this forum. I'm having a problem with a query I'm trying to create.
I have two tables in the database: tblCustomers and tblInstallations. These two tables are linked by a field 'CustomerID'.
CustomerID is the Primary Key in tblCustomers.
In tblInstallations, the primary key is InstID and for each CustomerID in tblInstallations there are either 1 or 3 InstID records.
Now what I want to do is create a query with fields: Customer; CustomerID; InstID1; InstID2; InstID3.
InstID1 will contain the first InstID for the CustomerID, and InstID2 & InstID3 will contain the second and third, if applicable.
I see in Query Design View in the 'Totals' line there is a option to display the 'First' and 'Last' match for a field. So is there any way i can use this method and also display the second record? If not, is there any other way to make this query work?
I hope somebody can help!!

Basically, some clever soul has used coded fieldnames but then added a description telling you what the field contains, and I need to return this description.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a query which is a concatenated field of text and then a field from a table that has a hyperlink.

I have a small access 2010 system. The database design was not good (replication of data all over the place) so I have been tidying up the design but have hit a few problems.I am using a form which contains amongst other things a customer name. The customer name used to be part of the enquiry table, and was picked up directly from there. I have replaced this with the key to the customer table.The only way I have managed to pick the customer name up is to change the control from a text box to either a list box or a combo box. I then have to set column count to 2 set the widths to 0 and 3 to hide the 1st one (the ID) and then set the bound column to 2 to show the customer description.
This is fine up to a point BUT the format controls on the list/combo are different from the text box so I can't replicate the back style and back colour (I had transparent and no colour respectively); the back style has disappeared and how to make the back color as "no colour".Also I end up with 2 little up and down arrows (for the list box) or ma bigger arrow for the combo.
I have a form with a memo field which is used by users to input transctiptions of Customer Contacts but the form is getting busy and the box now only 2.77 wide X 0.683 High.
this makes it impossible to read on the form even as a text box with scrolling..how to add a mouse over on it so that it fires up a large text/meg style box to display the contents?
