Jul 8, 2015I am trying to get access to open up from a form a filepath within a field. I have managed to get a module for this to be able to open a default application. However I,m now not sure how to link this to the field. I've attached a link to the DB.

Forms :: Form Not Picking Up Previous Entries
Sep 9, 2013I'm fairly new to databases and have been attempting to build a multi-table database. It's not properly rationalised, but I wanted to test run it to ensure it was fit for purpose first.I've built my form, which is pushing data out to several tables, but I cannot seem to get the form to pick up previous records.
View 3 Replies View RelatedForms :: Picking Up Sub Form Totals From A Main Form?
Mar 22, 2013I have converted an old Access 97 database to Access 2010. Mostly it works fine but I have a major issue with the invoicing forms. It was working in the old database but I cannot get it to work in this version.
I have the usual invoicing option where the lines of the invoice are displayed in a sub form for that customer and line totals calculated. This works fine. I have a sub form total text box in the footer of the sub form which I want to pick up from the main form so that I can add the delivery charge and VAT.
Forms :: Form After Close And Reopening Not Picking Up Fields
Sep 11, 2013I have cleared the data out of the database and started testing it to check its usability.I entered in a full record, and flicked back and forth between the records, and everything was looking good.
Then I closed the form, and re-opened it and my record was no longer populating the form fields.I've literally changed nothing bar one field that was changed from number to text.
Modules & VBA :: Up One Folder In FilePath
Jan 24, 2014FilePath = CurrentProject.path
I am currently using this path, but I moved my database folder into another folder so people won't mess with it. I still need to create files to the original directory. How can I make the FilePath still relative but up one folder from CurrentProject.path?
Using VB Script To Automatically Add Reference And Detect Filepath That *.mdb Is On
Mar 16, 2007Is there a way for visual basic to detect where the directory filepath of where the *.mdb file is running on and use that filepath to automatically register the *.dll and *.tbl files...
The reason for this is because the application can be installed on a D drive other than the C drive. Using the Visual Basic Editor's menu to add a reference is a moot point also because of this.
Not Picking Up Table Value
Dec 10, 2007Hi everybody,
I have the following table:
ID ThicknessFieldRange1 ThicknessFieldRange2 Factor
16 0.0641 0.068 0.97
17 0.0681 0.072 0.98
18 0.0721 0.076 0.99
Now, I have a form that has a 'Thicknesstxtfield' that when calculated in the form its value is 0.072 in this case . Based on the range this value falls into, I want to get the correspondant 'Factor' which in this case would be '0.98'.
Guess what, ACCESS is telling me that it cannot find the value '0.072' in the table and gives me an error. Any ideas on this?
Notice that all the fields except "ID" are 'Doubles' with 4 decimal places, and I find the values using the 'DLookUp' function. I know that's where the error is because all the other ranges work fine.
Thanks everyone
Picking Orders For Invoices
Oct 31, 2006Hi everyone,
I'm sort of new to Access, but over the past few months I've been able to develop an inventory database for my work which turned out quite nicely and does everything I need it to, except for one thing.
I want to also create invoices for my customers, and after looking at examples I understand that most people link the "order" with the invoice, so that there is one invoice per order. However, I need the ability to combine many orders into one invoice. That's where I'm stuck.
I don't know how to arrange my relationships and forms so that I can "pick" the orders I want on my invoice, and not at the time of the Order, but at some point after. Basically my orders will be established, but their allocation to invoices won't, until I come along and put them into their rightful bill.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I'm pretty stumped.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Picking Biggest Default
Mar 21, 2006I have a table with ID1, ID2, and AMT.
IF ID2 is NULL, I want to update it with the non-null ID2 where the ID1 matches and has the largest sum of AMT.
For instance
ID1 ID2 SUM(AMT)
1 333 1000
1 444 3000
1 <null> 5000
In this case, the third ID2 would get the value of 444 since it had the highest amt.
I'm guessing this involves sub-queries, and I have a real blind spot where they are concerned.
Thanks,
David
Query Not Picking Up The <> Operator
Jul 3, 2006I have two tables in the first table there is an outline number and the second table there is a task id (both are text strings, i.e. outline number and task id would be something like 8.15.3.1)
I want a query to return all the results in the first table that are not equal to the second table
I have tried the following but it returns all 54 records
Code:SELECT DISTINCT RawData.TeamLeadNumber, RawData.Category, RawData.OutlineNumber, RawData.OutlineDescription, RawData.Start, RawData.Finish, RawData.Milestone, RawData.PercentComplete, RawData.DeliverableDesc, RawData.ReleasePeriod, RawData.OutlineNumber2, RawData.OutlineDescription2FROM RawData, SharePointDataWHERE (((RawData.OutlineNumber)<>SharePointData.TaskID));
I have tried changing the where clause to have it as
Code:WHERE ((RawData.OutlineNumber)<SharePointData.TaskID) AND ((RawData.OutlineNumber)>SharePointData.TaskID);
but then no data is returned, and I know that of the 54 records 21 of them are the same so I should be seeing 33 records
Tables :: Use Insert Into Command To Insert Filepath Into Table That Adds Blank Label
Aug 28, 2014I am at work, and I have acquired a database that prints labels. They now want the database to be coded so that after certain labels are printed the database will print a blank label. I have the code figured out as a Do While statement in order to print the blank label. The problem I am having is that I am trying to use the Insert Into command to insert the filepath into the table that adds the blank label.
|DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO Rod_tmakLabels ( Print, [Order] ) SELECT Yes AS Expr1, 'Rods Labels' AS Expr2"|
If I run the above command, it just adds the text "Rods Labels" at the end of the table. Is there anyway with the INSERT INTO command that I can insert the new label between the 2nd and 3rd row and add another row? Or is the command designed only to add a new row to the end? I haven't had any luck searching for this yet.
Query Not Picking Up Current Record
Sep 9, 2005Hello,
Can anybody see what I'm doing wrong here. I have the following query
SELECT Contacts.Cust_FK, Contacts.ContactNr, Contacts.FirstLastName
FROM Contacts
WHERE (Forms.ComLogDetail.Cust_FK=Contacts.Cust_FK)
ORDER BY Contacts.ContactNr;
The "Forms.ComLogDetail.Cust_FK" part should render the current record in the form ComLogDetail but its not. Any ideas?? I'm an amateur programmer so my apolgies if the solution is all too simple.
Query Only Picking Up 1 Didgit From Table
Mar 15, 2007Hi
I'm a bit new to SQL, and have what is probably a rather simple question:
I have a query, which i want to pick up a figure from a table.
SELECT *
FROM Feb_Closed
WHERE Time_to_Close>'6' AND Team_Owner='Comp& Ben';
This give me a load of rows with Time to close between 6 and 9 but nothing else. The problem it is not counting everything over 9 ie i think that it is just looking at 1 digit in the table and so ignoring 10, 11, 12, 13... etc etc.
Any help gratefully received.
Thanks
Picking Of Single Data Out Of A String Of It..
Jul 31, 2007hi,
I am trying to pick out the ERAP no.s out of a whole string of data. ERAP no.s are like invoice no.s. Do I Append or Make table? How do i go about doing this? I want the ERAP no. in a row next to the the description field all next to its respective string of data too....
for an example..
1)ERAP43463 STAFF TEAM LUNCH MID-YEAR REVIEW
2) 0507 SUBMITTED ITEMIZED ACCR-ERAP43159
See.. the part where the ERAP no. appears is inconsistant.. if not i could simply use excel and use text to columns. We have thousands of lines like this every week... There has to be a way to pick out just this detail and fill in the column next to the respective datastring...
Can someone please advice me on how i can go about doing this?

Auto Fill Form Field With Value From Previous Form
Jul 20, 2015I've got one form that a user will start on, titled "Query Form" - Only one text box is here and it is titled "text0"
Upon hitting enter here, a new form is opened up titled "Time_IN_Form".
What I would like to do is have the value from text0 on the Query Form to automatically populate Emp_ID on Time_IN_Form so the user doesn't have to enter their employee number twice (only once via the first form).
What is the best way to do this? I have tried playing with global variables but didnt have any luck with that.
Queries :: After Importing Data Query Not Picking Up Newly Added Records
Apr 21, 2013I created a database. exported some Excel data into Access tables, created a number of lookups, default values etc. and created a pretty simple query.
My problem is that after importing and tweaking the data, when I add new records, my queries do not pick them up!
I have tried:
1. saving, closing, opening and re-running the queries.
2. putting an Nz expression for each field in the query as I read that null values may cause a problem.
3. wrote the query again, field by field to see if all records were received.
4. Exported the table back to Excel and imported to a new Access table in my database
None of this works.

Record Set Fill Out Form
Feb 25, 2005Hello,
I have a record set I open with SQL, and I have lots of fields that are assigned control source names (which are columns in my table)
When I open the record set from a table, science the control source names agree is there a way I can fill all those out instead of going:
Me!fieldOne = myrecordset("fieldOne")
Me!fieldTwo = myrecordset("fieldTwo")
etc etc
That is very tedious and very hard to update the code. Is there a way?
Need Help With Auto Fill In A Form
Apr 24, 2005I am a new access user and need some help. I have created an auto fill query to fill in information on a sales order table from my customer table based on CustomerID.
I have also created a sales order form. When I enter the customer ID in the form the rest of the data does not fill in. Actually nothing happens.
How do I link the form to the query so that the form knows where or how to look for the auto fill customer data.
Thanks
