Duplicate Info In Table
Dec 14, 2004
I've got a huge table with one column that shows a lot of duplicate
info in it. How can I let it identify the unique names and "hide" all the
duplicate info that falls under it e.g.
Columns:
Col.1:Fruit Col.2 Col.3
Apples A 1
Pears B 2
Peach C 3
Apples D 4
Apples
Apples
Pears
Pears
Pears
I would like the table only to show the say Fruit column with Apple, Pears,Peach
and list when you click on it all the related data to it. Along with this I would like to
associate all this info in the form. If I select Fruit in the form the related data should appear
below in maybe a subtable or something which I should be able to select from which info I need.

I have a database that lists all the books I have read. The Table "Books" holds "AuthorId' "Title" etc. I have another table that is called "Whats Next To Read" which I store the next book that I will read from that author. It also uses "AuthorId" and "Title" etc. In the form, how can I look to see if the title put in for that author in "Whats Next" does not have the same title already in "Books" table. I can use Dcount to find the title but it could be same title different author. I need same title with same author.
This is what I have so far.
If DCount("Title", "Books", "Title = '" & forms!Whatsnexttoread!Title & "' > 0 Then
Msgbox "Title is already in books.", vbInformation
End If
I need it to only look at the same author.

Having a problem where information from staff worksheets has some constant data and other info is static.
I have added file for your viewing. The Propagation form 1 is the original form I was using to input the data, this was time consuming. I am trying to upgrade the form so that constant data can be entered in once and static data entered onto a sub table within the for.
Problem is that when I view the table to make sure everything is working the constant data is only recorded for one record not the balance(pls go to last record to see problem). ie date is not repeating in propagation table
Can ANYBODY help with this as this problem occurs in other forms as well.

I have a form that I am working on.
When you open the form, it asks for a tool # (which will be a drop-down box). There will be a command button that will bring up a sub-form. In the subform, there are 2 combo boxes. One picks the group that the tool falls under, and the other has the section of the group for the tool.
When the user picks the section, I need it to filter the questions that pertain to that section (which is listed in a list table), and pull those questions, and populate the master table with them. (i.e., Pulls "where is tool?" from tblQuestions, and puts it in the tblQuestionMaster when section is selected from combobox).
:confused:

I need to get x and y coordinates for each device, but the data has to get looked up from 2 other tables.
I have a table (called InstReclosers) that has device names. Each device is on a Section. I can go to another table (called InstSections) and look up what Node that particular section is tied to. Then I need to go to another table (called Nodes) to get the X and Y location for that particular node.
How I can go about getting this X and Y data into the InstReclosers table?
...in summary, InstReclosers has device name and section name. InstSections has section name and node name. Nodes has node name and XY coords. Need XY coords for each device in InstReclosers.

I need help on this, from what the best concept is, to what I need to look into using:
I store Quote data from phone calls into tblQuotes. There is a seperate table that holds much of the same information except that it is for actual orders called tblOrders.
As far as function goes, I have each working much the way I need it to except for one thing... If a sales person is on the phone with a customer with a quote already in the system, right now they re-enter the data into the Order table. Most times, the order is what was quoted, but maybe with a few small changes (so I will wnt to keep a historical record of the quote). How could I copy the contents of the quote recordset into the recordset for an order, where all the sales rep does from there is edit the quote to the actual order?
Would I use VBA or an update query that is executed via VAB? Honestly, I am unsure how to do this at all, I hope someone has seen this before and has a good suggestion...
Thank you.

I'm a relative newbie to the more advanced features available to Access.
If someone could help me or point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.
I have one table that contains companies and associated contact info. Each company can have more than one unique number ID (3 digit alphanumeric).
I want to take this table and run a query to create a new table that will only have one instance of each company name, along with the other contact information. The unique ID's aren't needed in this table (but it would be great if I could somehow toss them in, too).
This new table would then be used to create a form with a combo box containing all of the names to quickly jump to their contact info.
Any and all help would be appreciated. If a query isn't the best avenue for this, then please point me in that direction, too.
Thanks!

Guys i have tried to seach the Forum but can't find a solution to my need.
I would like to get a collection of table names from another DB, what i am trying to do is populate a table with a list of table names that the front end links to and their paths once a user has selected the data file location.
Instead of me having to force a user to place the DB files in a location of my choice when the database first loads it will prompt the user to select the location of the data file then (this is why i need the above) populate a table with a list of table names and their source, then establish a link to them for the front end to work.
Also if i ever send amended DB files or they move the location of the data files they can automatically re-establish the linked tables.
Hope this makes sense.
Cheers guys.

Please note that I am self taught (90% of what I have learnt has been off these boards!). I did make this form with info I found on this forum.
I am having problems with a log in box for a database, the line of code is -
If Me.txtpassword.Value = DLookup("password", "customers", "[customerID] =" & Me.EbayName.Value) Then
This code is in a Form; "password" is the value in the table of "customers"; [customerID] is the primary key value I wish to remember; Me.EbayName.Value I assume is the value in the table that access is looking for.
Questions -
A) It is not looking up the value for [customerID] - what have I done wrong?
B) In the line of Me.EbayName.Value what does the 'Me.' part tell Access to do? I assume it's a pointer to it's own form? What part of the line do I need to change to make it point to another form (or table)?
C) When this is finished how do I get the program to remember the 'customerID' while the customer is fillling out other forms?

I have an inventory table and a repair table for computer equipment. The inventory table is already set and working with all the data I need.
In the repair table, I would like to just enter the ID number and have some of the information already stored in the inventory table automatically entered into the repair table as needed.
For example, computer 138 has repairs done to it. I would like to then go into the repair table to add a new entry, type in 138 and have the some of the data from inventory table (model, serial number, etc) transfer into the repair table.
Is this possible with Access?
I have only been able to do something with the lookup wizard, but that doesnt seem to work well.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I have managed to get one combo box on a form (Categories) to look up the approprate values for that category and populate another combo box, i.e. if I choose Premesis costs in the categories combo box, I am given the relevant choices in the Details combo box, eg. rent, cleaning...
Now this is all great but I want the values I select in BOTH boxes to be entered into the underlying table. I have tried putting the relevant field as the control source, but the way it is set up means that only numbers are put into the table. Here is the code and stuff (I got this from a help site, so I have changed my table and control name to theirs to make life a bit easier):
cboStore (i.e. the Categories)
Row Source: SELECT tblStore.lngStoreID, tblStore.strStoreName FROM tblStore;
Event - AfterUpdate:
Private Sub cboStore_AfterUpdate()
Dim sManagerSource As String
sManagerSource = "SELECT [tblManager].[lngManagerID], [tblManager].[lngStoreID], [tblManager].[strManagerName] " & _
"FROM tblManager " & _
"WHERE [lngStoreID] = " & Me.cboStore.Value
Me.cboManager.RowSource = sManagerSource
Me.cboManager.Requery
End Sub
Private Sub Label5_Click()
DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryCategories", , acReadOnly
End Sub
cboManager (i.e. Details)
Row Source: SELECT tblManager.lngManagerID, tblManager.lngStoreID, tblManager.strManagerName FROM tblManager;
The Tables:
tblStore: Field names: ingStoreID (Autonumber); strStoreName (text)
tblManager: Field Names: ingManagerID (Autonumber); ingStoreID (Number); strManagerName (text)
The Query (very simple):
qryCategories: strManagerName From tblManager; strStoreName from tblStore.
Phew! Is that enough info for someone to help me? I wouldn't mind even the numbers being in the table if there was some way that I could change them back to text for a report.
I'd be really greatful if someone out there could help - be gentle with me though, as I'm note very good at this code thing!

I know there should be a simple solution to this problem but i have not worked on access for some time and the cobwebs is too thick.
I have 2 tables one being Stock codes with related fields: Stock code id; Stock code;length;width;height.
Second table is Order Details with related fields: ID; Order id; Stock code;quantity;length;width;;height.
Did a query running the stock codes with length width and height.
Did a form with all details, calling up the stock codewith the query. The info on length width and height to the related stock code is on the form but how do i relate it back to the table Order details.
In the order details table the stock code is showing but none of the other related info.
As i said it is something small but i cant get round it.

I have a table that lists all of my available seating for different events.
My table columns look like this:
EventID - Section - Row - Seat - Available
Sample data in columns:
1 - A - A - 1 - Y
1 - A - A - 2 - Y
1 - B - A - 1 - N
1 - B - A - 2 - Y
2 - A - A - 1 - Y
2 - A - A - 2 - Y
2 - B - A - 1 - Y
2 - B - A - 2 - Y
EventID actually goes from 1-6
Section actually goes from A-F
Row actually goes from A-J
Seat actually goes from 1-36
When the user selects an event (or events) in the first box - I would like the query to eliminate the available seating, from the other events, in the results.
When the user selects a section (or sections) - I would like the query to further eliminate the available seating, from sections not chosen, in the results.
When the user selects a row (or rows) - I would like the query to further eliminate the available seating, from rows not chosen, in the results. And finally display whatever available seating is available - based on all three of the above criteria.
I purchased every access book I could find.. and I am slowly learning this. I'm a complete novice..
I'm not looking for any of you to do the work for me.. I'm more looking for guidence. I'm still getting to know all of the controls and their limitations. I have not yet written any VBA code. (It's still very confusing) I'm trying to get by on using the toolbox controls, using queries, macros and form controls.

This may be a bit detailed, so stick with me. Is there a way to have a form which you can pull tabel information into, but look at a specific line? I am trying to create a database that will pull up the first line of a specific tabel's information, then when a command button is pressed, it will pull up a seperate form with the information from line 2 of that SAME tabel. I don't want this to be done by clicking the arrows at the bottom of the form. I actually want this to populate seperately.
Lets say I have a Loc_ID box that is pulling the Loc_ID from a tabel.
The tabel I am trying to pull from has an autonumber format and is sorted in that manor from a-z. Is there a certain type of logic that I should use however? As of now, each time I have a form come up, it starts at the first record, which is not what I want it to do. I want it to come up with the first record, then click a few buttons, then the next time a new form comes up with the same info on it, I want it to show the second record's information.
Any information anyone might have will be MOST helpfull! :D

Is it possible to construct a query that uses information from one table to run a series of Like OR Like... criteria?
I have created a table that contains partial part numbers and would like to query a second table for all the part numbers that contain these partial part numbers.
Meaning, BACB30DX6 would return the desired information for BACB30DX6-7, BACB30DX6-8 and so on.
The TBL_PARTS_FAM_DIA table contains approx. 200 items so 200 LIKE statements can't be the way to go... I'm hoping.
I tried: LIKE "*[TBL_PARTS_FAM_DIA]![PARTS_FAM_DIA] *" thinking that perhaps this would go through all 200 items... but of course that was wishful thinking.
Do I really need 200 LIKE statements or is there some easier way to do this.
Thanks in advance!

I have a access 2010 file, with 3 tables.
On my form I have a tape Textbox where I put tape numbers in that is on a other table inside my access file (for now I just type a tape number in), then save the info to other table also inside access file.
I want to know how can I make it that if I put a tape number in the textbox, it must look at the table for tapes, and if the tape number is not in the tape table, it must not let me use the wrong tape number that is not in the table for tapes.

Hi
I am creating a database but I am having a problem with one little bit (so far!!)
I have form (and table) 1 and form/table 2. When I am in table 1 (which is company details) I want to be able to click a button which will open form 2 and allow me to enter a new record of incoming mail details regarding the Co. selected in form 1.
I have made a relationship between the Company ID on both tables.
I cannot seem to work out how to make Access take the Co ID no from form/table 1 and stick it into form/table 2 when I push the button.
Can anyone offer any advice??
thanks heaps
Siobhan. :p
