Find Command In Access In One Report To Search Throughout Whole Database
Dec 7, 2014
Is there a way to use the find command in access in one report to search throughout the whole database. For instance, I am designing a database that in a report it shows the number identifier of an item, and the actual detailed information is located in a separate form. What I want it to do is to be able to find the detailed information from a command within the report that only has the number identifier.

I have a MS Access database, and I have set up a form for users to input
name, address, ssn and other data. I have command buttons on the form
to print a record, add a record, delete a record and to exit. I tried the
search option, but with 50k records on a netwoek, it was to slow.
Is there a way to have a search on a command button, (Macro?) on
this form to allow our employees to search by name or ssn?
Thanks for your help.

Hey there, can anyone advise if the following is possible and if so how it might be done?
I have created a site using DWMX04, ASP & ACCESS.
I would like to be able to have some sort of report on what is being searched on the database.
Can this be done in ACCESS or by using ASP?
Any ideas or suggestions would be great.
Mally.

I have built a custom search form in a MS Access 2010 database so that users can find specific records to edit. After entering the search criteria and hitting a Search button, another form opens up that shows the search results. This second form includes a command button for generating a report of the search results.
Right now, the custom search form and the search results form are both working properly, but the search results report is showing every record in the database instead of just the search results. This is true whether I access the report via the command button in the form or the navigation pane. I'm not sure if I need to correct my VBA code or the report's properties.

I've created a Report called "Labels". I would like to use a program mwalts gave
me that searches my database and then sends out a mass email. I would like to take
this program and instead of it searching the database and sending an email, have it search
my database and print out the results in a report.
Can someone tell me the command lines I would need to add to the following program to do this?
I would like to just take out the email parts of the code and just substitute them with the print
label parts.
Thanks.

I have a database that I created that uses a form to fill out information about server builds. I contains information about who built it, the IP address, server name, etc. I want to be able to create a dailog box that allows the user to input a server name to query the database and create a report based on that input. And if the user input isn't found in the database, a dialog box comes up with some sort of error message. I am still pretty new to Access, so the more detail you can give me the better. Thank a lot.

I have an App that runs a few action queries using:
Code:
CurrentDb.Execute "[My Query Name]"
At some point I get this Error: The Microsoft Access database engine cannot find the input table or query <name>. Make sure it exists and that its name is spelled correctly. (Error 3078).The query is there, I can run it from the DB objects window.Queries run using CurrentDb.Execute earlier in the code.

I have a find command button that appears to call the find and replace message box. It should be a search for anything in my query. The code behind the button looks like the find and replace message box in the office suite. I believe I am trying to create a message box where you add an entry and it searches then lauches a subform with my entries.
When I checked the button it had the following code:
Private Sub cmdFind_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdFind_Click
Screen.PreviousControl.SetFocus
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, 10, , acMenuVer70
Exit_cmdFind_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdFind_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdFind_Click
End Sub
I read a few of the lookup queries but they only give me a drop down. Is there some way to customize the box comes up without altering all of Office or do I just sound lost.

I know you can create a find record command button really simply, which when clicked will display the find and replace window.
What i want to do is create a command button that will search a specific field that i specify in a report for the criteria i enter.
i.e i have a customer information form, which contains
AccountNo
CompanyName
Address
Postcode
Tel etc
what i want is a button that when clicked brings up an input field that allows the user to type the name of the company into this field, then when either the enter key is pressed or another button on this pop up window the matching record will be displayed or a error window stating that there are no matching records. Can anyone help me with this.

Hello All, I was wondering when you use a find command, if you can make it so it searches two tables from the form your currently viewing, not just the data from the table that is tied to that current form.
Second question is I am thinking about maybe taking some "1 day" classes on access. My question is how many people have taken these & are they worth the money, or is it easier just to buy a book & if buying a book is better what is a good access book to buy.

I have a table that was set up from a parameter query. Before the form opens it ask you for a part number. You type in the part number you want the information for and the form pops up to that particular part number. The problem that I am having is that if I want to move to another part number I have to close out the form and reopen it to type in another part number. I tried using the Access Find/Replace feature to do a search for a another part number to open up the information to that part number and I have even tried to create a command function that will do a search, but when I use them they both come up with no records found.
Is there a way to make a search function in a form created from a parameter query? I am not a script writer and am just really getting indepth with Access at the moment.
Thanks
Steve

Hi all,
I have some records containing the following data
ABC (UK)
ABC (UK) Ltd
ABC UK) Ltd
ABC UK)
I need to pull out all the data with a ) but not a ( and add a ( to the start of the word before the ).
So for example, the four examples above would change to:
ABC (UK)
ABC (UK) Ltd
ABC (UK) Ltd
ABC (UK)
I have selected the companies that need updating, and I can pull the data to the left of the ), but I don't know how to find the first instance from right to left of " ", or find the last instance from left to right of " ".
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Hi everyone, I'm having an issue getting a database working, I've set up a form to enter the data but I'm having trouble getting the form to calculate GST (10% of initial value) from an initial value entered if a check box for GST required is selected and then adding the GST to the initial value to create a Total Value. If you have a look at where I've got too with it so far and the picture of how I need the data too be formatted.
Here is a link to where I'm at so far with the database:

I have Territory Mgmt database. Sometimes when I get a new lead I need to quickly find other leads in the database that are closest to it.
I am currently not tracking latitude/longitude etc. Do I need to? Is there a way to set certain location marks by address?
If so, once I put in the latitudel/longitude how do I create a search to find the nearest?

We have an older system that generates txt reports. I take these txt reports, then using Excel, I append the report headers to each record... creating a datatable. I then import this table to Access. I have not been able to figure out how to have Access perform this. In Excel, I use an "if" statement.

I am trying to use a query to search 2 many to many relationships but i keep getting duplicate results because each record is slightly different.
I have a table with cameras, another users and another formats. I have a table linking cameras to users and another linking cameras to formats so it looks somthing like this:
tblCameras - tblFormatlink - tblFormats
tblcameras - tblUserslink - tblUsers
When i add all the tables into a query i get loads of results as expected because i get a result for every possible combination.
What i want is when i search for all cameras that are suitable for a user who is a beginner is to get just a list of unique cameras. When i do that search at the moment i get a duplicate record for each different format the camera can do.

Hi
I really need help with this. I have a database that is quite large and is accessed through VPN. When I shrink and compact the database it goes to a respectable size. But over time everytime a report is previewed the size of the database grows. Or every access it grows to double its size in no time at all.
Any ideas... on what would make it grow and how to stop it.
Thanks it is appreciated.

I have a database that uses four forms and each form has it's own table and each form has it's own search button to find a specific record within that table. I would like to use one search button that will look at all four tables and bring up the correct record when the request number is entered. Can I link all the tables to perform this or is code required? Can someone send me in the right direction for how to do this? Give me an example of code if it's required?
Thanks for any help I can get.
