Hi All
I'm trying to set up a form to log my clinical placement, and the number of time i undertake a procedure.
I want to have a list of a few procedure(fields) and then button next to each one in a form which will increment the number by one
How do i go about doing so?
Hi Guys
I'm trying to create a database application which logs the number of times which i do a certain task.
Is it possible for me to create a button within a form that will increment the value with a particular field by one?
I have searched the net but can't find anything.
Thanks
Matt
My aim is to have my forms open to a new record, which I have done, but if my users need to then update or edit data in previous entries, they can click a button that allows this.
My thoughts were to add a button, then put in code so that the necessary properties changed the form from displaying a new record or records entered since opening it, to showing all records in the associated table....
As an example there is a table for purchase orders. When clicking on this from the main menu form, it opens up the purchase order form to create a brand new PO. At times though, we will need to revisit an order to attach a copy of an invoice, or update the cost of whatever was purchased.
I have a form to edit records. When I open the form I am not able to change any of the fields until I edit a date field that has a calendar popup on the "on click" event. After that all of the fields are available for editing. Any ideas??
Thanks,
Pat
Hello,
I am a relative newby to Access, Can someone please offer a solution to my problem.
I have a DB which lists current order references, I also have a linked spreadsheet from a customer which references their Ref number to our S/order no & Item no.
I have set up the relationships for the common data between both tables.
if I create a Query from either table individually the data can be edited but when a query is created from both sources the data cannot be edited.
this also happens if the spreadsheet is imported to its own DB.
I would really like to create a form which displays both sets of data for editing, marking progress etc.
Can data from linked tables be edited in a form ?
Regards
Andy
I have a Form that is used for creating entries to fill a table. On the same Form there is also a list that shows everything in the table and a double click on the list will populate the Form with that data. The problem is that "Save Record" command button will not update the table because it thinks it is creating a new record.
The code to populate the form from the list is
Private Sub EmployeeEntryList_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
Me![Number] = EmployeeEntryList.Column(0)
Me![EmployeeNumber] = EmployeeEntryList.Column(1)
Me![FirstName] = EmployeeEntryList.Column(2)
Me![MiddleInitial] = EmployeeEntryList.Column(3)
Me![LastName] = EmployeeEntryList.Column(4)
Me![Supervisor] = EmployeeEntryList.Column(5)
Me![Group] = EmployeeEntryList.Column(6)
Me![Shift] = EmployeeEntryList.Column(7)
End Sub
how I can make it populate the form if an entry is double clicked and then be able to save a modified version of that record over top the original.
I have a form with several subforms within (tabbed subforms). I've used the code:
In the Current event of the parent form -
Code:
Me.AllowEdits = False
Me.AllowDeletions = False
Me.AllowAdditions = False
In the Current event of each of the subforms -
Code: (THIS NEVER WORKS FOR ME - RUNTIME ERROR)
Me.AllowEdits = Me.Parent.AllowEdits
Me.AllowDeletions = Me.Parent.AllowDeletions
Me.AllowAdditions = Me.Parent.AllowAdditions
In the Click event of the button -
Code:
Me.AllowEdits = True
Me.AllowDeletions = True
Me.AllowAdditions = True
So the main form is locked upon opening and unlocked with the click of an unlock button. How to apply this to the subforms as well. They just stayed unlocked the whole time.
I've been able to navigate a lot on my own, but there is one issue I cannot seem to resolve. I have 1 form and 1 table. I have the form set up so that you can enter data, and then press a button, and it will "save" and refresh the form for a new entry. However, I want to be able to pull that entry back up in the form, and fill out additional fields later on.The form is set to data entry = yes because I do want the form to open up as brand new each time.
To sum up my question. I want a text box and search button at the top of my form. When you type an ID number in the text box, and then press search, I want access to populate my form with the information in my data table associated with that ID number.
If I type in the number 1234 and hit search. I want my form to autopopulate with the data in the row for ID number 1234 (all the fields I have already populated). So by searching 1234, the name, phone, background info, etc that is populated in the row will appear.
what I want to do is make a button to search range of columns in data table with data type Yes/no and display the results if the value is yes

Anyone have any ideas how this can be done?:confused:
I want the caption for buttons in my Form to be pulled from a record in a table. Additionally, I want the name of the related form or report opened from the button to be pulled from the same record. I've been looking into this and it seems like using DAO is one option,I've already go the table set up, that was easy enough.
View 7 Replies View RelatedSo, I have a form [frmmembers] which will enable the table [tblmembers] to be updated when a button is pressed. When the button is pressed, it will enable the fields "First Name", "Last Name", and "Password" to be updated.
At the moment, the data changes without pressing the button (as soon as it is entered into the text boxes on the form), which means that a password could be accidentally changed and could prevent the user being able to enter the system (which requires their personal MemberID and Password).
Is there a way of making it so that the data inserted into the text boxes on the form will only change the data in the table after the update button is pressed?
Hi all. I have an excel spreadsheet that pulls company information off of our internal system that is linked to an access database table (let's call it "General"). The General information is current and is updated within our internal system (but through the Access side will not need to be updated), however, I have a separate table (let's call it "Detail") that has information (employment, revenue numbers) that I want users to input through access. The two tables are joined through a relationship, however, b/c General is a linked table I am a) unable to assign a primary key and b) unable to edit the Detail information in a form view. I know this is related to Microsoft's limitation on excel linked table, but I was wondering if there is a way around it besides copying the General data into an access table. Would be grateful for any help!

I'm looking for someone to help me with a solution to my problem of importing data into a data table.
What I'd like to do is have a command button on a form. When this button is clicked the records in a table are cleared out. Then I'd like for a browse window to come up to locate an Excel file. The user would select this file and the data would be imported into the data table that was just cleared.
Can this be done without too much trouble?
Thanks, Paul
Hey all,
I've never used Access much...i was able to use it OK at one point but ive forgotten all about it now.
I need to create something very simple for the reception at my work...
When a customer phones we want to be able to keep track of how they heard of us - so we want a very simple access/VB program.
The best way would be to have buttons of each of the magazines our company is listed in..then when someone phones and says "ahhh magazine 3" the receptionist can press a button and the button will add 1 to a field in a table?/report? next to that magazine.
Hope that makes sense :s
Any help would be very appreciated! - It seems very simple to do ?
Thanks

I am using a form with command buttons to allow an administrator with limited Access knowledge to update certain tables. This is usually done by opening a form that is linked to the table and allow for changes. For one particular table, I would like the Administrator to be able to make the changes directly in the table. I would like for them to access the table with a command button. Here is the code I am using to update the table through the form. How do I need to change it to open the table and not the form. I tried changing the DoCmd to OpenTable and changed the stDocName to "tblStaff" but I received a compile error.
Your help is appreciated.
Private Sub cmdPermission_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdPermission_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "frmStaff"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit_cmdPermission_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdPermission_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdPermission_Click
End Sub
In my form I have a subform, which displays A, B, C. Then information C is displayed in textbox. User should have a possibility to modify this data in order to modify data in database.
I am able to display information C in text box based on this subform. However it is uneditable, although property of enabled is yes and locked is no.
It seems to me, that it is impossible to edit data because it is taken not directly from database but from sub form, so I make special query which takes data directly from database however I lose an event which is based on selecting proper record from subform (there is only onEnter and onExit events)
Hello,
I have created a table containing jobs that need to be done from my team (IT production). Each time someone start or finishes a job, he must fill a box that updates a specific row in the table. I want to log the time of that action.
Any ideas of how I could set this up in Access? I have tried the Now() function in the Default Value of the field End Time, but this is updated everytime I refresh the table
I hope I can explain this:
I have a database with a table "Itinerary" it has two fields "Date of Visit" and "Agency Number"
I have a second table that is linked from a different database "Agent Info"
I created a form based on the "Itinerary" Table then I put in a sub form to show the "Agent Name" and "Market Rep" from the "Agent Info" table.
The relationship is on Agent number in both tables. The user then adds the agent number on the form and the Agent name and Market rep automatically come in.
The problem is the user wants to be able to occasionally modify the info in the Agent Name and Market Rep fields. But does not want the new info to be changed on the original "Agent Info" table.
Can this be done?
I hoep someone can help.
Is it possible to have a 2 step confirmation process.
I have a yes/no control box to confirm that the record is OK or correct.
Is it possible to have a second process where by I can lock the record from erroneous data entry or editing? Like a "Post" in accounting.
Hello all,
I have a question, I'm building a MS ACCESS database and within it i have a table for putting in my program critical parameters. I don't want anyone to change the content of that table. That means not editing the 1 record in it and not adding a new record. Within the program is't a problem but if you make an other blanc database you can import the table, change it and export it back into the program (i know it is far looking but it happens).
How can i lock a table so it cannot change or it cannot be exported or imported???
I'm creating an application and I want the users to be able to view a table and filter it, however; they won't be able to edit it. Like I said, seems simple enough, but since I'm new to Access I'm not sure how to approach this.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a table which is linked to a form which has been working fine for over a year now but yesterday the table "locked" for editing. I can now only copy data from the table. The editing functions delete, cut, new etc are not working, we can still filter the data.If we enter data on the form it creates a new line on the table but we cannot edit directly from the table.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a form and I want show a message on the form when the it is locked as another user is editing the data in a particular record.
I know the record selectors show the records lock status but it a very tiny symbol which will mean nothing to the users of the database and anyway I don't want record selector bar on the form. How I would do this???
