View 11 Replies View RelatedEntering Query Restriction Before Running Report
Dec 7, 2005I built a database off of the access wizard and it gives me the capability to enter date parameters before running my reports, than displaying the revised report. I.E. I am prompted to enter start and finish dates, and then after entering this info and hitting a button to preview the report, the only data displayed is that that falls into that date range.
I have created a new report that wasn't built into the wizard. This report "hits" an underlying query. I have also added a button on the switch manager to preview the report. I want a user to be able to click that preview report item on the switch manager, then be prompted to enter start and finish date information, then hit an ok button, then have the report with the relevant information displayed.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAccess 2010 Table Suddenly Read Only - How To Remove That Restriction
Nov 8, 2014This application has worked fine in the past, but now I find it stops cold saying a particular linked table is read-only. I've looked around and all I can find in the various forums is how to MAKE a table read-only. Reversing that process seems very difficult.
The application is a copy of another that now exhibits the same problem. Each uses a different data mdb - part of the development I'm doing involves changing a different table. I'm developing changes to the application in this separate copy.
I can't tell if other tables would have this problem - the table in question is the very first used (initialization routine) and I can't get past it without deactivating a bunch of code.
Forms :: Access Form For Hardware Allocation - Duplicate Entry Restriction
May 19, 2015I have a Form created for Hardware Allocation.
I have following Fields. Allocation ID(PK), HW ID, User ID, HW Status, Assigned Date.
Values of HW Status = Active, Inactive, Decom, In Stock etc.
What I want is explaind below example
HW XXX is allocated to User ABC and the Status is Active.
Now When I want to reallocate the same HW XXX to Another User XYZ then Make the current status as Active. But before doing that the form should force me to change the Status of previous allocated to user ABC to anything other than active. Because One Device can be active to only one user at a time.
i,e Combination of HW ID & HW Status(Active Only) should not be duplicated.
General :: Any Way That Access Could Create A Drop Down Box Within A Drop Down Box?
Jul 24, 2012Is there anyway that access could create a drop down box within a drop down box? For instance, when a selection is made in a drop down box, it opens another drop down box with choices.And is it possible to link an inserted image from a form to open in MSPaint that when it opens, the image is already there?

Jun 18, 2013I have a drop box that has four selections from a table (NORTH, EAST,SOUTH or WEST) I also have a another table that has two fields which is a NAME of a person and either NORTH, EAST,SOUTH,WEST depending on the persons name. What I need to happen (within a form) is that when I select NORTH from a drop down box, I can then select names in another drop down box that correspond to NORTH only. Then only names from the South list if I select SOUTH etc
View 2 Replies View RelatedDrop Down Menu Inside Drop Down Menu
May 15, 2006Ok, This is something I have long wanted to do, but cannot figure out.
I am working on a database for a company that orders a large number of Items. I have these all in one table (itemCode, itemDescription, price, categoryCode, etc). I have another table with categorys (categoryCode, categoryDescription) . Each Item is asigned a categoryCode and the appropiate relationship exsists. Right now I have a comboBox in a form that when selected opens a drops down menu with all the Items. Then another one auto loads up (continuous form) and I get the same drop down list of all the Items.
What I would like to have is a combo box then when it is selected shows the categorys, then based on that selection, I see all the Items that are in that category.
I guess another way of saying this simply is, I would like to create a drop down menu inside of a dropdown menu.
Is this possible? Does anyone have another alternative suggestion that might work well? I'm relectant to use a list box, becoase ideally it would be a drop down menu inside of a drop down menu as seen on many websites.
Thanks in Advance!

Drop Down Box
May 30, 2005Hi Guys,
I have a combo box on one of my forms that on clicking the arrow the user has the option to either input yes/no. However i have just noticed that the user doesn't have to input yes or no and can actually put whatever they want in it (which sort of defeats the object of the combo box!!)
Any ideas guys/gals??
regards,
Lee
Drop Down Help
Dec 26, 2005My database is set up with a sub form showing:
Mfg, Model, Serial#, and Type. When I drop down and choose the Mfg, I then go to the next drop down (Model)and the only choices I have are those associated with the Mfg I just selected from the previous drop down. On my Enter Repair Data form, I want to be able to drop down a box for Part Number and then have a drop down field for the Part Description to match the part number that i just selected. Then I would like to have the next drop down to show a unit price for the Part Number and Description fields that I just entered. Is it possible to accomplish this with an existing Data Base? My data base is 1.61M so it's too large to upload here, but if someone can help me my ICQ # is 65-489-369, e-mail is huntiir@bellsouth.net. I can upload a copy of my database if needed.
I also need to have a field added to another report in my data base sowing the total labor for units shipped on a particular date to a particular customer. The report already totals parts used in the repair of the units for that date. I just can't seem to get the total labor to show up.
I was also trying to set up an inventory Report on parts used for my repairs where it will calculate the number of parts in stock in the form of:
RR#, Part#, Description, Unit Cost, and Total Units in Stock. You can see that I am somewhat complicated and ignorant to the use of Access.
Can you help me out please?

Drop Down Query

Drop Box Filtering
Jan 6, 2006Hello Everyone. I'm not all that new to access however my problem does exceed my experience and I'm hopeing someone out there maybe able to help me.
A while back I began to build a database to keep track of post production activites such as what items were being produced on a perticular production line. Its my job to book all these items in according to date, line, item, order and qty.
This was all good and simple until it was decided that I had to assign a category to each item. Their are multiple models to one perticular category and to make things even more difficult the same item could be produced on more than one production line.
I work within a Pool company where their are 7 production lines, each with their own purpose and facilites of making certain products until you come to other products that could be produced on any of 3 or more lines.
So, I made a table 'Category' which lists the different types/acronyms for products and the lines in which it could be produced on.
I than created a new column within my Post Production table called 'category' and chose to use a drop box so I may select which category to assign the item. The drop box shows both columns 'Catefory','Line'.
The problem I have is that theres 40+ rows within the Category drop box and because the same name of the category may appear more than once simply beginning to type in the category name isn't good enough.
Is there a way to filter out which categories is listed within the drop box according to which line it maybe coming off once I've already selected which line within the same row?
I've tried selecting a relationship and createing a query both failed.

Drop Constraint Help

What would the VB code look like? Something like ALTER TableB DROP CONSTRAINT ...

How Do I Add A Drop Down List?

Drop Down Menu Help
Feb 22, 2005Hi there.
I work for an Internet Marketing company and my boss wants me to design a huge huge form in Access - requiring alot of Drop Down Menus. Alot of them are simply Yes/No questions, some, however, are not.
This is what I have done so far:
I have a field called Sector which I have selected as a Yes/No Field.
In the Form Design View I have selected:
Row Source Type = Field List
Row Source = Sector (this is a separate table in which I have put all the options)
In Format, instead of Yes/No, I have changed it to "-" - this is simply because when I view it Normal View the first thing in the Drop Down Menu is a Yes or a No.
This all seems to work fine until I try to select one of the options and I get this error:
"The Value you entered isn't valid for this field - For example, you may have entered text in a numeric field or a number that is larger than the FieldSize settings permit"
I have gone back and forth into the Design View on the Form and the Table trying different things, but nothing I do seems to work.
I don't even know if I have gone about doing this Drop Down menu in the correct way to begin with.
I'm not an Access Expert so please if anyone has any ideas please let me know. It'll be much appreciated :)
Thankyou.

Combo Box Drop Down
Jul 25, 2005When I get focus of a combo box I do an automatic dropdown but when I select an item from the list the dropdown doesn't close so it covers my other fields until I click randomly anywhere on the form. How can I get the dropdown to close as soon as I make my selection from the list?
Thanks
Drop Down Option
Feb 28, 2006Apologies if this has been answered before.
I am an inexperienced Access Database writer who wants to learn more - so first question, are there any Access Gurus' near to Buckingham/Milton Keynes UK that would be willing to spend a couple of hours showing me advanced access programming with a specific databsae in mind (i have a more complicated one than the one attached to attempt) (paid of course).
Secondly, I have a form which I would like to finish this week and am struggling with. The main form is frm_PatientDetails. I am trying to add a subform frm_Practitioner which shows a drop down box of the practitioners names, but allows you to choose more than one. This is a many to many relationship as a patient can have more than one practitioner and a practitioner has more than one patient. I have had a go at creating a junction table, and a query, but got a feeling i'm doing it all wrong.
I've attached the database, so any other feedback on what i've done right and wrong would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance for the help.
