In a table, I'd like to require an entry in either Field A or Field B. But an entry should be in only one of the two fields.

Hi,
a colleague of mine has Office 2000 installed on her work PC in order to carry out Access datadase responsibilities (amongst other things) as part of her job.
I think (though I cannot be sure) that someone has 'locked down' the copy of Access to such a point that shift bypass no longer works, F11 does not display the database window etc. This is strange because our company generally does a default install of Office and leaves most everything configured as standard.
In short, I need to access the Tools menu to set startup screen options and customize some of other options for her. Obviously I can't.
Will this problem require a complete Office re-install or is there a way to undo someone elses changes and set Access back to 'wide-open' ??
Thanks

I haven't been able to figure out the code to require entry (for a new record) in a field on a subform - anyone can help with this?
The situation is a contacts database, and each new contact should have a (or multiple) Person Roles entered as well, which is their relationship to the organization.

I am trying to edit the following code to be able to require the user to enter a Loan number and keep prompting the user to enter a value as long as the field is blank. Once the field is filled in, then the code should go on to check if the sql condition is met and make the necessary change if met, then finally, I have a save command code that will require the user to save the record. Right now I am getting errors when I added the code to require the user to enter a field. I am new to loop and if statements in vba so I am not exactly sure how to structure it.
Code:
Private Sub Save_Record_Click()
Dim SQL As String
Do
If IsNull(Me![Loan Number]) Then MsgBox "Please Enter Loan Number. This is a required field."
[Code] ....

I'm creating an employee survey database and I'm using option groups for collecting general information such as office, department, etc. My question is can I make it a requirement for them to answer an option group before moving on to other questions? I'm trying to control and track how many employees have taken the survey. Right now I can skip these general information questions and just go into the survey questions so I'm trying to prevent that. Also in the same train of thought is it possible to not save any incomplete surveys? Say I have 50 questions and someone starts the survey but only answers 10 questions and then exits for whatever reason. I would like that record to be deleted so it does not count. If I allow incomplete surveys then I can get skewed numbers.
As always you help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chester Campbell

I'm trying to create a validation rule that requires an input of 5 numeric characters OR if the entry begins with a letter it can be any length. For example if the record begins with a number the length must be 5. If it starts with a letter any length is acceptable.
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you!

I have a subform where records can be added or edited. There are two fields: firstname and lastname. I want a message box to appear when a first or last name is edited.
I do not want that message box to appear when a new name is being added. I use this code:
[CODE]....
Now I want to also prevent the user from leaving a record before both fields have data (first and last name are required). My efforts to do this seem to conflict with my message box issues.
Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong or how to do this?

Firstly hello, I'm new! :)
Sorry for creating yet another thread on table design/relationships for surveys, I did search just needed a bit of clarification.
From what I understand from my search the best way to create a basic db for surveys would be a question table, response options table, and response table, this is similar to a database I have implemented for a simple online surveying system. Now this works with Y/N, or even limited response questions.
However I can't get it to fit with my current project, and I don't think it will, but I thought I'd check to see if I'm being stupid.
I have a survey, 20ish questions expecting 200-250 responses.
The questions consist of a mixture of:
Yes/No answers
Select all that apply answers
Select one from list
Select one from list or select Other and enter it yourself
Text/Comments
Because of the wide range of values, some completely unique and the possible number of answers per question per survey it seems the above method (and that implemented in At Your Survey which i've had a look at) would not work.
I only need to store responses (not questions), so I'm proposing a main table with related tables for those questions that require it.
So in essence a flat file response table with each field being a different question, each record being a separate survey response.
For those questions with multiple answers a separate table, related to the main response response table.
Data entry will be twofold, a web version of the survey automatically recording responses and manual entry into custom form within access for those paper returns.
Reporting will be faily widespread with a lot of cross referencing.
I know this is not a reusable format, and it is pretty much a one time only project anyway, relatively short lived. But I'd still like to create the most efficient product I can, within the time constraints.
Any views or help would be much appreciated :)

i have a quick question... I am having a slight problem with a query that i am using in my database... i am trying to calculate miles per gallon. The query i have set up looks at the previous records odometer value and subtracts the current odometer value to get the miles driven since the previous fill... Here is my sql code.
SELECT fuel_use_tbl.unit_ID, fuel_use_tbl.fuel_use_ID, fuel_use_tbl.fuel_date, fuel_use_tbl.gallons, fuel_use_tbl.odometer, (SELECT TOP 1 Dupe.odometer FROM fuel_use_tbl AS Dupe
WHERE Dupe.unit_ID = fuel_use_tbl.unit_ID
AND Dupe.fuel_date < fuel_use_tbl.fuel_date
ORDER BY Dupe.fuel_date DESC, Dupe.fuel_use_ID) AS PriorValue, [odometer]-[PriorValue] AS [Miles Driven], [Miles Driven]/[gallons] AS Expr1
FROM fuel_use_tbl;
The problem with this code is this... lets say i drive a brand new vehicle (its first record and it has no prior odometer value... the PriorValue reading shows up as nothing (NULL) when i then try to take [odometer]-[PriorValue] it shows up as nothing (NULL) while it should just treat it as [odometer]-0... i need help so that it shows an average mpg for every fill... Thanks for your help.
For a better example this is exactly what it looks like
unit_IDfuel_use_IDfuel_dategallonsodometerPriorValueMiles DrivenMPG

Fuel Use ID is my primary Key and it is autoindexed... ive just been messing around with fake data and have changed the dates... thats why it looks a little strange

I am using Access 2002 database with ASP.NET(VB). I usually try to get something working in the access 2002 GUI 1st and I am having trouble with creating the code to require that a field entry be forced to be another exisiting entry in another table. For Example:
UNIT_TABLE has fields UNIT_ID(key), and UNIT_NAME having values of:
1 Tigers
2 Bears
3 Sparrows
BATTLES_TABLE has fields BATTLES_ID(key), ATTACKER_MAIN, and DEFENDER_MAIN
I want the ATTACKER_MAIN and DEFENDER_MAIN choices to ONLY be members from UNIT_TABLE.UNIT_NAME
I set up a combobox and lookup in BATTLES_TABLE as follows:
SELECT UNIT_TABLE.UNIT_NAME FROM UNIT_TABLE ORDER BY UNIT_TABLE.UNIT_NAME;
this OFFERS the CHOICE of any of the 3 clans (ie Tigers, Bears, Sparrows)
but I cannot not FORCE the USE of these....because the end user can option to enter in anything else.(which is not wanted).
How do I add SQL to the LOOKUP such that... the user can ONLY choose to enter text that EXACTLY matches an Already existing entry in the UNIT_NAME field?
I tried to enter a validation rule:
[ATTACKER_MAIN] In ([UNIT_TABLE.UNIT_NAME])
I get an error that the field 'UNIT_TABLE.UNIT_NAME' does not exist.
Thanks for any help with this validation problem.

I am fairly new to Access and my "changed" position at work requires that I learn much more about the software. My first challenge is to learn how to make an existing form prompt a user to confirm or cancel changes. I don't know anything about coding but I searched online and found some coded that is supposed to make this happen. I went to "form properties'' and typed this (below) in BeforeUpdate:
'If the form data has changed a message is shown asking if
'the changes should be saved. If the answer is no then
'the changes are undone
On Error GoTo BeforeUpdate_Error
[Code] ....
BeforeUpdate_Exit:
Exit Sub
BeforeUpdate_Error:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume BeforeUpdate_Exit
After saving changes to the design, I tested by changing the record. I received no prompt.

There are 4 unbound dropdown list box that will have a default value of empty string. All 4 must have values entered (data is required).Once all 4 are required - the bottom 5 text box will become enabled (optional data).Forcing the user to click on a Validation Button
Some users type then use the mouse to select the next.Other users type to select then tab.The trick is: After filling in the 4th listbox and validating all 4 have values, the event must trigger code to enable the 5 optional text boxes below.This provides a seamless data entry environment.
I have been doing this in other places, but the transisition after the last required field is complete gets ugly.If Trim(cmbBoxname1 & "") = vbNullString ' check all 4..If it is the 4th one, the event seems not to happen quick enough for the bottom 5 text boxes to be enabled so the user can continue with data entry.

I don't have any database experience whatsoever so please go easy.
I'm guessing this kind of this is extremely simple for all of you.
I'm constructing a database of network resources and devices and I'd like to automatically update the values in one field based on the values of a field in another table.
The first table is called "IP" and the fields are called "Address", "IP Type" and "Device".
The second table is called "Devices" and contains the fields "Name", "Description", "Asset Number" and "IP".
Here's an example of the tables: (ignore the "code" tag. i've only used it to align my columns properly)
DEVICES:
NameDescriptionAssetIP
XserveFile Server107203.30.144.75
ProliantXDHCP119203.30.144.15
IP:
AddressIP TypeDevice
203.30.144.75Static
203.30.144.15Static
What I want is for the Device field in the IP table to automatically update it's values based on the values found in the Devices table. In this case, the values that should appear in the Device field in the IP table are "Xserve" and "ProliantX".
I've searched through but haven't found a complete solution, just little pieces which I'm too inexperienced to put together myself.
thank you

I created a form in Access that retrieves data from a table. Inside the form, I am able to access/populate data fields with data from the table. I also have data fields, inside the form, that requires key-in data. I have some how lost the ability send all data field information to a second table and clear existing data fields for new entry.
Questions: What settings, code or buttons can I use to send/store data field information to a new table? What settings, code or buttons can I use to automatically clear all data fields from my form once data has been sent to the new table?

I have main form and that has one sub-form , this Main form governs/determines the data in the sub form.
This Sub form ( DataSheet Mode) has approximately 130 columns and based on the Main form criteria only ~ 20 columns has to be filled.
What I want to do is based on the main forms criteria I want to show only the columns that are applicable to main form criteria.
If I use Columnar or Tabular single form for the Sub Form I am able to hide the fields that are not required BUT IT LEAVES A SPACE/GAP on form ( for the hidden fields that are not required)
Private Sub Form_Load()
If Forms!frmShowPIforActiveAndCanAddNewPI!FrmSubFrmFi lterProductInformationPerFMT!CASETIF = True Then
Me.CASETIF.Visible = True
Else
Me.CASETIF.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
And If I use DataSheet and hide ( visible = no) a particular filed it still shows up in Sub Form
Is there a way to Auto-Re Arrange all the fields in the sub form so that the hidden ( visible = no) fields no not leave gap
Or is there a way by VBA program to select fields ( Columns) from a table to be displayed on a sub form based on a criteria
Thanks

I have a totalquery that runs fine and give me the sum for both fields I'm looking for but I can't get the outputs to fill the fields on the form. I have tried the Dcount query in the control source but that just returns an error and locks up access.
Code:
SELECT [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, Sum([Tble-wcDelays].HoursDelay) AS SumOfHoursDelay
FROM [Tble-wcDelays]
GROUP BY [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, [Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID
HAVING ((([Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID)=[Forms]![Frm-ePlusCent]![cleanID]));
That is the query.

I have a query that creates counts of fields based on the data in other fields, basically it tells me that in a table there are two entries with value ABC????? and three of DEF????? , the query works perfectly.
When I create a form to display this data and base the form on the Query I keep getting a message box asking for the ID (key field) from the base table.
If I type * in the box (to denote all values) and press enter I get the results expected.

Basically in my order details table i have the following fields
Product
Unit
Size
At the moment i have the Product field with a dropdown that gives me all the products from my ProductT. But once i choose the correct product in the unit field it gives me all the possibilities of every product not just the units associated with that product. ie
ProductT
Grasshopper Box1000 Adult
Grasshopper Box1000 Subadult
Worm 10pz Big
When I select the grasshopper product and move on to the unit field i also get "10pz" option but this is not a product available.
How do i set up validation of the fields Unit and size based on another fields data?

I have a database that will register the emails coming in and what time, also the time, date out and person.
I have a form with the fields to be filled in and a submit button. There are some fields that are automatically filled in and others need manually fill in.
below that part is a sheet (subform in the form of sheet) that should be filled in with the above data. Once it is there, it should empty the fields so they are ready to be filled in again. If I fill new data and press the submit button, it should go to the next available row.

I have a copy of the back-end that gets a search key error 3709 on two records. In other words, I can duplicate the problem.
The interesting part is that I can update any other field on both these records and save the record, but when I try to change two specific fields, I get a Search Key Error and have to ESC out to continue (basically UNDO the change). Both fields are text fields with lengths of 7 characters and 255 characters, and both are COMBO Boxes on the form.
I tried to focus on the form think there was an issue in the code. I can definitely TRAP the 3709 error on the ON ERROR event on the form using "if dataerr = 3709", but then I tried something even simplier.
I went directly to the table and to each of the records. Again I can update any other field in the record but these two specific fields. When I try to change either of them and move to another record, you get a Search Key Error 3709.
By going to the table record directly I'm as low level as I can get. There are no validation rules on either field at the database level. If it was truly CORRUPT would it let me update any of the other fields on either of these records? One is an empid (not a primary key but is indexed with duplicates okay and not required), and one is status code (not a primary key but is indexed with duplicates okay and not required) so they're no critical fields, but something is keeping them from CHANGING.
Just tried something else; deleted the INDEXES on both the fields. Now it works! I am completely confused now because it really wasn't a corrupt record, but the indexes are causing the problem. Do I need to update the indexes somehow when the users selects a new empid or status code?

I have a product table that includes the name of the product, the quantity ordered, and the unit price. This is a summary table for the whole year showing all of the orders. The Primary Key is [ID] from the [tblOrders] table. I attached a screen shot of my query. I don't know if you can see it. I want to generate a report where each product is listed once, the unit price for that product is listed, the total number of that item that was ordered throughout the year, and finally, the total amount spent for each item during the year.

How can I get some mainform fields' data to be the first entry in a subform? From the mainform, I would like the Head of Household name and date of birth to be carried over to the first entry in the HouseholdMembers subform.
The two forms are tied to separate tables. For each household member I need to be able to enter full legal name, date of birth and some additional pieces of information such as income and source of income.
What I'd like to avoid is making the users enter the Head of Household's name and date of birth twice. Is there a way to carry that information over to the subform?
Thank you, Charlotte

Hey Everyone,
I am stuck trying to figure out this problem. I have a main form "frm_tirelog_600" which has 4 combo boxes "cboleg",
"cbocar", "cbopos", "cboserial" on it. The first 3 combo boxes are used as criteria on 1 of 3 subforms that I have.
The fourth combo box "cboserial" is used for the criteria in a query on another subform that I have called "frm_mount_600_subform",
which is independant from the main form, I hope I have explained that clearly enough. What I need to be able to do is
have the subform fill in 3 of the fields on it "leg", "car", "pos" with the value from the 3 combo boxes on my main form. I
can get it to show in the fields but not write to the table. I have searched the forum and have not been able to locate anything
that would work and really need any assistance with this. Im not real strong in the coding department which is where I
beleive this could be done.
I have attached a copy of my DB which I hope will better explain it. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I have a combo box linked to a look-up table. There are 8 fields in the look-up table but only if one of three is chosen do I want additional combo boxes to become visible. Do I put the code in the "after update" or "on change" event of the combo box and how do I express the code-
If TechniqueCombo="caudal" or "spinal" or "epidural" then
TextNeedleType.Visible=True
(am I close??)

Hey,
The database I am working on, I split a while ago to give it some security. Now i'm updating a related form, and i'm finding that if I delete and add fields in the BE, the FE fields (being the fields that I need to insert into the form so the data entered propogates to the DB) are not updated.
How do I update the FE?
Thanks.
