I'm trying to filter my table so that i can make it a query. The data in the Facility is linked to another table with FacName and FacID. When i try to filter the data to create the query from the table, it says type mismatch. It's really bothersome....btw is there another way to create a filtered query?
View RepliesI have a few tables. One of it is a matching table between a table with people information and a table with event information. Now it want to do something like that:
The first column is filled with the event name (reference to the event table is done so i can choose from the drop down list) ...
The second column should contain the company name of the persons who visited that event. (also done)
The third column now should contain the visitor name. but the drop down should be filter so that only the people working for the company chosen in column two selected.
In my visitorstable the company of the peoples is referenced so i have to check, when the drop down opens, is the company written in column two also found in the column in my visitors table.
Hello,
I have a form which gets it's records from qryCompleted.
The form shows all records with selected fields in a list.
Each title of the fields is a drop down box which need to update everytime any of the other drop down boxes are updated.
For example, if cmbCompanyName was updated, then all other drop down boxes need to have "select [field] From qry Where [company name] = cmbcompany name".
If cmbcompanyname and cmbregionname is updated, all other boxes need to have "select [field] From qry Where [company name] = cmbcompany name and [region name]=cmbregionname".
and so on and so on.
There's 6 fields that need to have filters on, which i quickly calculated at about "A shitload" of 'if-then-else' statements.
Is there an easier way?
Porbably a stupid queston for most of you, but I am new to the game. Trying to get the selection of one combo box to filter the selections of a second combo box. Have one table called Sections with the colums SectionID and SectionName, a Second Table called SubSection with Colums SubSectionID, SubSectionName, and SectionID. Third Table called Points which has a column for Section, and SubSection, need to have the section combobox selection filter the SubSection combobox selections. Any help would be appreciated!
View 1 Replies View RelatedI almost have this form done.
I have a form with a combo box, and 2 subforms from it. When you select in the combo box (Group), it brings up the choices (Sections) for that group in a subform. Then there is another subform, that is supposed to bring up a series of questions that are related to the section that has been selected. The question field has a drop down to a list table, that has all the questions. Once the question has been selected, it stores in a Master table. The relationship is there. If you try to select any questions that do not pertain to the section, it gives you an error message.
What I need it to do, is when the section is selected, filter out the questions that pertain to that section, and have those questions be the only ones available in the drop-down list to choose.
I know that I need to have an After Update code once the section has been selected, but not sure how the coding should be.
I hope that someone can help with this!

I'm working on a database to organize and streamline the process that the manufacturing facilities in my organization use to request removal of defective product and raw materials. Currently all of the facilities send me their requests on individual excel spreadsheets via email, which are difficult to keep track of and report on since nothing is consolidated. What I've done is create a form in access that mirrors the current spreadsheet being used, so all the facilities have to do is enter the info into the access form rather than excel. The use of access is more for my benefit than theirs though, as it will keep track of the requests as well as make reporting on the request data much simpler.
When the facilities fill out the request form and select their facility number from a drop down list, I'm wanting them to be provided with a "Request ID" so that they may keep track of the progress of the request. The request ID should be a sequential alphanumeric value that includes the facility's three digit facility code, the last two digits of the year, and the number of the request. An example would be PL1-150001. The kicker here is that I want each facility to have it's own set of sequential numbers. So for example let's say I receive four requests in one week, three from facility 1 and one from facility 2. They should be assigned request ID's such as PL1-150001, PL1-150002, PL1-150003, and PL2-150001.
Is it possible to use Filter option in my form without using Query Wizard? - So that the user would be able to edit and change the other field on the same form
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using this code to filter a List Box based on a Date range and a Combo Box selection:

Hi all.
I apologise if this has been a thread in the past but I couldn't find it.
What I have on my form is a dropdown which pulls data from a table (the table being durations of time in words, ie: One and a half days, Three days, etc.,) and I have just added a column that has the same durations in numerical form (ie: 1.50, 3.00, etc.,).
When the user is entering job data and selecting how long the job will take, the 'words' will be selected in the dropdown list and appear on the form and, subsequently be used on job sheets.
What I need is numerical value to go into a Text Box next to the dropdown and this is proving difficult for me to work out how it can be done.
Can it actually be done?
Thanks for any help.

I'm trying to set up a database of books in a small library - each book has a prefix (Maths, English, Art etc) which I want users to be able to pick from a drop down list - I can do this, but the next field is a sub-category - is there a way of populating the dropdown list for the sub-category field depending on the chosen entry in the prefix field. eg if maths was chosen I would like the user to have the choice of number area, volume etc. but a different choice if the prefix was English.
any help very gratfully received - it seems to be a simple problem but it has me stumped.
I have a DAP that many users have access to.When opened the Dropdown is blank on some peoples and populated on others. Is there some setting that can cause this. I have checked to make sure that they have the allow ActiveX Controls to run files on this computer checked. Any other setting that may cause this? Thanks.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI currently have a button that opens a report. the report pulls from a query that has parameters set to "fromdate" and "todate". instead of using dates and parameters that pop up as blank text boxes, I would like to click the button, have a form pop up with a combo box to select all of the options available (currently 23 options) and then click a button to make a report that only displays the record (1-23) selected. I do not need any time constraints because as the databases get updated with more records, there would be more than 23 options to choose from.

I have a form bound to a table which has 20 (name)fields and 1 date per record. A user fills in this form first to indicate which people are present this day. I know it would be better to use 1 name per record but that would in this case not work since the form must show all names for that day before saving and closing.
I have a different form where I use 4 combo boxes and a date field. The values that can be selected in the combo boxes should come from the 20 names on the first form and with the same date as the other form. So only 4 people of the 20 indicated as present on that day can be selected to have performed some task.
I know how to select with a combo box from different records, but how would I do it from different fields in the same record? And then also for a particular date?
:eek: Our office is planning to switch over to MS Office 2007 including Access 2007. I've just been looking into converting our Access 2003 databases to the new version. One thing I noticed about the datasheets appearing as subforms is that each field header/label/caption/column selector thingie has a dropdown menu. The down arrow of the dropdown menu takes up valuable realestate where the field name is being displayed.
Question:
Is there a way to turn off those individual datasheet dropdowns and get rid of the arrows so that the form doesn't have to be redesigned, due to increased column width considerations which the down arrows cause, just to display the full field labels as they always have been in Access 2003?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Cheers!

I Have made a change to a field in my tables. it was was based on ethnic background and originally i had just created the field but had not added in the options ( via adding it into the row sources).
So now the tables field have been updated but unfortunately on the form it has not updated into the dropdown i had created containing the options..
I created a table in a budget database without a autonumber field. I then inserted a autonumber field after creating the form by inserting a row in the table which works fine in the table, now i want to use a text box on the form with BudgetID from the autonumber field to give me the total amount of records in the database but the autonumber field is not in the record source dropdown.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a form where I have two drop down list box.The first list box is called Transaction_Type. It contains three values: Created, Allocated and Sold
The second list box is called Product_Status. It contains 6 items: Allocated, Produced, Reworked, Shipped, To Be Produced, Unallocated.
I have a products form. When a user created more inventory they will selected in the drop down list create, then a quantity. Then I would like the status of the product to update to "Unallocated".
When the user placed an order but doesn't finish it they will choose the status of the inventory to be allocated so I would like the product status to be updated to allocated automatically.
They other status the user will choose them self and do not need to be linked to each other.
In my vba code I have tried with the OnClick and AfterUpdate sub procedures with the following code.
If Me.Transaction_Type.Value = "Created" Then
Me.Product_Status.Value = "Unallocated"
End If
If Me.Transaction_Type.Value = "Allocated" Then
Me.Product_Status.Value = "Allocated"
End If
Yes when i select "created" from the drop down list it does not change product_status to say "unallocated"

I’m not an expert in Access and hope that someone can help me with my problem. I have about 20 fields of Yes/No data type.
E.g.
StudentID- Tex
Science – Yes/No
Math – Yes/No
Biology – Yes/No
Chemistry – Yes/No
Economics – Yes/No
...
I would like to create a parameter query (without using form combo box) where when I run the query, it would prompt me for the subject name. Let say I keyed in Science, it would list out all the StudentsID who took up Science only (with a Yes) and the other subjects.
Pls help.
Thanks.

I must create a database for the company that I work for that covers the maintenance history of our stone crusher plant. In this database I have two dropdown lists. The first one is for the equipment and the second one is for the different types of parts that has to be replaced or fixed.
Not all of the equipment uses all of the listed parts, but some parts are used on more than one type of equipment.
I have already created a database that lists all the equipment and another one that lists all the parts.
What I want to do now is create a Yes/No box for each type of equipment so I can mark which parts is used by which equipment.
Then you must be able to select the type of equipment from a dropdown list and then select from a dropdown list that only has the parts that is used by the piece of equipment.

Hi
I have set up a query and a Crosstab Query based on that Query. This works fine, but I am trying to filter the data in the crosstab query to only include the account info for the account the user is viewing.
My crosstab looks something like this :
Account # Result 1 Result 2 Result 3 Result 4
I can static a criteria in the base query (Criteria Account = "1") and it works, but I need the criteria in the query to change based on the record the user is viewing on a specific form. I tried to reference the form ; Forms![formname].[account] but the crosstab query will not run that way. Is there a way through code to change the criteria in a query for a specific field ?? Or do I need to create a recordset and use SQL statements ?
Any thoughts ??
Thanks
