Fields Get Cleared Out When Specific Criteria Has Been Met
Oct 1, 2012
We have a PHP website that utilizes an Access 2003 SP3 database. This website is used as an authorization process for a business process in our company. On the website, 8 different people must "sign off" on the process. This sign off process simply consists of typing your name and date into two different text boxes, as well as a third drop-down menu for "APPROVED" or "DENIED". These, of course, correlate to their respective fields in the Access database.
Within the past year or so, the 8th approval section was added. Since then, there have been sporadic issues where all of the approval fields would simply be erased and everyone has to go back to the form and "re-approve" their fields. I believe we have narrowed the issue to when the 8th person signs off before the 7th person. However, the approvals are not cleared every single time this happens, but this condition exists every time data is cleared. So my question is, would this be an issue related to access, or with the coding of the website?
I am working on a database. I created a list box (ListBox) that filters record for a form. This list box is controlled by another field (SearchBox) where I type search string.
The ListBox visibility is hidden when the form loads. It only becomes visible when the user starts to type in the SearchBox. The records gets filtered and when the user clicks on the selection, the form goes to the record and the ListBox becomes hidden again. All this works fine. My problem is for some technical reasons I want the ListBox to show only when there is character in the the SearchBox. When I try to type in the SearchBox the ListBox shows but when I try to clear the SearchBox with backspace the ListBox is still visible
I tried:
Code: If me.SearchBox = Null Then me.ListBox.Visible = False Else me.ListBox.Visible = True
I also tried
Code: If IsNull (SearchBox) Then
Still when I type backspace the ListBox remains visible.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I put this code on the current event of the SearchBox Field.
I am new to access i have a problem which is i have made a form which contains a subform and a read only subreport, what i want is the ability to select a record in read only subreport as in the picture attached and make a button that when i press on it, it should copy the values of the itemsID field, Packing field, ContainerNo field and origin field from the selected record and then paste them in the subform below.
Also i want to add more then one item, so the when i press on another record it should paste the values below the first record.
I have data for hundreds of stores. The data was pulled for the top 15 items by store, so I cannot obtain only the top 5 items that I need. How can I query this data to extract only the top (or bottom) 5 Subjects, by store, based on the percentage column?
Apologies first if there is an easy answer to my problem.
I have set up an option group with 3 checkboxes with choices Yes, No, Maybe. On data entry you can click any of the three boxes but after clicking one how do you revert to a situation with all 3 checkboxes cleared. I don't want to use a default checkbox as that would add another row but I just want to clear out the boxes so it looks as though none of them have been ticked.
I have a problem with a DB I just designed. It has a combobox that is populated from a query, and it works great. However, the problem is that when I enter a new record the combobox is not being cleared, and is "holding" the data from the previous record. How can I get it to "reset"?
I have a Public Function that is being auto executed when my database opens. It is designed to change the value of a record from "Trailing" to "Critical" when the record is older than 90 days. Everything works as expected initially by changing the status and adding some text to a comment field for tracking purposes. However, I manually flipped the status of those records back to "Trailing" for continued testing purposes and they are no longer being included in the code execution. Do recordsets have a cache that is identifying these records as already having been updated and is, therefore, excluding them for all future executions of this module? Code is below. I added a counter just for the purposes of testing and it's counting zero records, even though there are several records that meet the necessary criteria.
Public Function Trailing() Dim strSQL As String Dim db As Database Dim rs As Recordset Dim i As Integer Dim ND As Date Dim CT As Integer
I have a table & form which has a field called address. I need to create a query that lets me select all addresses which may contain say George Street, this includes lock ups and individual addresses for that address, i hope you will understand and be able to help
I have a query drawing information from two tables. The first table has information about a product, and the second table holds all the faults found per product. So any one product can have anything from 1-14 faults. I have created a report from the query, but the Fault item that I put on it only ever shows the first fault for that product. Is there some way of fixing this at report level, or on the query?
The tables are connected through the ID field, but the primary key for the faults table is another autonumber. Ex:
That's two faults for the same product. Maybe I could create new fields in the query like Fault1: [Fault] with criteria set to primary key = 1? And one for each fault? But when I do it, it sets that criteria to the entire query, so the results end up blank because the "primary key" field doesn't exist on the product table.
I guess what I'm asking is can you set a criteria for just one field of your query to follow? Or can I resolve this issue in the report design?
Is there a way to search for queries that use specific criteria? Let's say I have 60 queries in total, but only 35 of them use the "Province" field as criteria. The criteria is set to retrieve all records that are in Province AB, SK, ON.
Suddenly we need to also include Province MB to all of these 35 queries. Is there a way to identify these 35 queries (all the queries use criteria in the "Province" field). These are the queries that would need to be modified to include "MB" as part of the criteria.
I hope my explanation is clear. Thanks upfront for any suggestions!
I don't know what it would be called or even how to start doing it in access other than it requires a criteria here is what I'm trying to make happen with access
name date yes/no criteria would be set to date > 180 days then it would equal value of No < 180 days then equal value Yes
If i set a today's date value on the database and then criteria is based of the value in the date box with the above information how would this be done.
The code below allows me to open a publisher document that is already merged to the current record. What I need is to allow the user to open the document according to the group they are reviewing. How to accomplish this?
For example:
IF Group = A1 OR B1 THEN OPEN AB_1.pub IF Group = A2 OR B2 THEN OPEN AB_2.pub IF Group = A3 OR B3 THEN OPEN AB_3.pub
Dim pubApp As Publisher.Application Dim pubDoc As Publisher.Document Set pubApp = New Publisher.Application Set pubDoc = pubApp.Documents.Add.Application.Open("c:Publishe rAB_1.pub) pubDoc.ActiveWindow.Visible = True
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
I am trying to create a mailing list of patients. Let's say I am creating a mailing list for February. I need the mailing list to consist of people who have had surgery in February from the beginning of the database, and people who have had surgery three months ago, so anyone who had surgery in November. I have created a form that has a button which is connected to a query, the form has a unbound textbox where I can enter the month in (2 for February). Then the query uses the datepart function to search for this month in their date of surgery. But this only gives me people for surgeries with february, how would I get people who have had surgery three months ago in the same query.
I have a drawing register database which notes the revisions for all drawings issued. One drawing can be revised several times so I have a details table which notes the revision letter, date issued and the notes for each revision. Using this table I created a max date query to show the latest issue date and revision for each drawing. This query is used for a transmittal form for issuing drawings. Both the form and report is working perfectly.
The TBLTransmittal consists of the following fields ContractName IssueDate SubSup DwgNo (multi-value checkbox)
Using the TBLDwgRegisterDtls or the query QRYDtldDwgReg (which includes the drawing titles) I would like to create a query that would look up the latest revision at the date of issue and show the revision letter.
I started a query combining TBLTransmittal and TBLDwgRegisterDtls and in the criteria for DateIssued of the TBLSDwgRegisterDtls (which is when the drawing was issued by the architect to the contractor) I put "Not > [IssueDate]". This is filtering the information to show revisions issued up to the date we (the contractor) issued the drawing to our sub-contractor but I need now to pull the max revision only from this information.
Before I go I will give you an example of what I want from the end result
Drawing BK2-02 rev. D was issued by the architect to the contractor on July 17th. This drawing was in-turn issued to our sub-contractor (Sub "A") this Saturday, August 9th. The same drawing was revised this morning and rev. E was issued to Sub "A" today, August 11th.
I want the end report to show that Sub A received Rev. D on 09-08-14 and Rev. E on 11-08-14.
I'm wondering if another max date query on this new query would work? I'll try and see what happens.
I basically have General Date field (e.g. 10/1/2014 6:34:11 PM) and I want to limit the results to only a specific month and only to show reuslts after 6PM. I tried everything and still stuck.
Hello everybody. I am new to Access and as such I don’t know how to perform the following. Please help me out.
The project is about a library loan system. I have a database consisting of the following tables: member (MemCode, LName, …), book (BkCode, Title, TotalCopies,…), purchase (PurDate, BkCode, CopiesBought,…) and transaction (MemCode, BkCode, RentalDate,ReturnDate,Returned).
TotalCopies is the total no. of copies there are of the book CopiesBought is the number of copies that have been purchased RentalDate is the date on which book is being loaned ReturnDate is the last date on which the book has to be returned Returned is a Yes/No field to indicate if the book has been returned
In the library a member can take only one book at a time.
Problem 1: The library may have several copies of a particular book, but all will have the same code. For example, a book, let’s say Harry Potter 6 has code 97. Initially only 1 copy of the book is purchased. When the librarian sees the book has great demand, he decides to purchase 3 more copies. All the copies will have the same code, i.e., 97. Only the TotalCopies will become 4.
BkCode is Autonumber in book table and Number in Purchase table. Relationship is 1:many.
I have a Purchase form to record details of books being purchased. I have a command button “Book form” that opens the book form when the user clicks on it. He will use it if the book being purchased is not already available in the library. What I want is:
(i)If he opens the book form to fill in details of the book, then when he closes the form I want the book details to automatically appear in the corresponding fields on the Purchase form. (ii)The CopiesBought will have to be used to update the TotalCopies in the book table. How should I do this?
Problem 2: When the user wants to record a loan, the system will need to check if that member already has a book which he has not yet returned. If it is so, then the system will need to provide a prompt to inform the user of this and consequently blocks the user from completing the transaction. How do I do this?
I have 7 combos, which for the most part set the value in another field - however, there are two values in the combo that do not have a value attached - one is AH, the other is SK. I have two textboxes (one for AH, one for SK) that I wish to have a count (preferably running) of how many times each of these values appears in the seven combo boxes.
I am using Access 2007. This is the problem; I have a warehouse divided into four departments North, East, South, and West. Each department is assigned its own storage location range North is N1-N1000, East is E1-E1000, South is S1-S1000, and West is W1-W1000. On the access input form of my database are two fields, one combo box field for Department and one combo box field for location stored.
When the user is updating the data base for parts received or shipped, the user must enter the department and location stored to correctly debit or credit that department. The location stored entered must be assigned to the department. (Example: dept. is north and storage location is N65, the user enters D65 instead, error message is displayed, "you have entered the wrong location").
What I need is instructions how to write the code to check the fields to verify location stored matches department, and display a warning message. How do I do this? I have a table with department names and storage location ranges.
Hi everybody, My question may sound you stupid but i am a newbie and i think you can help me... My problem is, I have records that have the id of a stuff and the error codes of the stuff which are occured in production. Therefore not all of the fields in the record are non-zero. I want to find the non-zero field/fields in a record... Any help will be greatly appreciated... Thanks...
