Tables :: How To Convert Middle Names To Middle Initials

Dec 13, 2012

I have names which are in the following format

smith, john adam
smith jr, john adam
smith, john a
smith, john

How can I make all middle names middle initial IE

smith, john a.
smith jr, john a.
smith, john a.
smith, john

I would imagine I need to use instrrev and insert "*." after the last space. Would that work?

Modules & VBA :: Remove Spaces From Middle Of A Field

Jun 9, 2015

I'm trying to improve the dialer that i place on microsoft access forms. basically there's a command button that dials the number that is in a text box, but we have a new job that's just come in that requires numbers to be copied and pasted into the text box. these numbers have a space between the dialing code and the telephone number and i need to make the dialer check for a space and remove it before dialing.

Here's the code for the dialing buttons:-

Private Sub cmd_Dial_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmd_dial_Click
CT.MakeCall "8" & txt_telephone.Value & "#", "", False, "", "", False

[code]...

Use Auto Complete Feature When Typing Word In Middle Of Field

Feb 26, 2014

I'm working with a DB to enter orders for picking. I have an item list that I'm linking to when entering orders, and bringing in the data from the item list such as item location etc.

It's setup right now that when I type the first couple of letters into the item field it automatically brings up the matching items and if I click enter it completes the item and brings in the other fields from the item list.

Example: If I type in 'tom' I get back 'tomato', 'tomato sauce' etc. and when I choose the right one and hit enter it fills up the rest of the required info such as item location.

What I would like it to do is have the auto complete also check for middle words.

Example: when I type 'alm' it returns 'almonds', 'almond milk', but don't return 'container almonds' or 'container roasted almonds' etc.

Country / City Combo Box

Jul 11, 2007

Hi
My name is Dana and this is my first post here .
I am a DB newbie , i started to teach my self MS Access with a small project as a start .
I made a simple client data table where there are country and city fields + phone , fax , etc etc ... .
I made 2 tables 1 for the countries and 1 for the cities .
I know that it is a very familiar question :o
How can we do the following
when you select a country in the client table , only cities of this country show up in the city combo box .
I found some answers here and there , but as a newbie , the codes where difficult to understand .
I attached my source file and i will be thankful if someone could help and to give me a simple explanation of the codes concept .
I just want to add the codes in the table not in a form , i found some answers by adding codes to a Form :confused: . Because as i know i can export only tables and queries to sql.

Combobox Country, State, City

Feb 21, 2007

Hi All!!

I need help with the code for a combobox. The thing is that I've created a form where the user has to select the country, then the state and finally the city. What I need is that once the user selects the country, the combobox of the state shows only the states of that country and then the combobox of the city shows only the cities of the chosen state. I'd appreciate all the help given. Andrew.

Autopopulate City & State From Zipcode Table

Mar 1, 2005

I'm stuck on something that should be simple, but maybe it isn't:

Problem 1:

To speed data entry in a contact table, I want an entry in the Zipcode (postal code) field to automatically populate the City and State fields from the data in a Zipcode table (Zipcode-PK, City, ST (2 letter code)). The Zipcode table has only one city /st for each zipcode, so it can be the primary key (always a five digit number, sometimes with leading zero(s)).

Sometimes there are several names for a City associated with a particular Zipcode, so I want the City field to be able to be overwritten with a different city name if the data entry person needs to do that. Alternatively, I could establish a separate primary key for the zipcode table, and allow several choices for the rare zipcode that has more than one city name in use.

If I did that I wouldn't have to store the city and st in the contact table (which is better database design, I realize), but I really do want to be able to store the city and state in the contact table because there will be times when the right zipcode isn't known, and the city and state are known, and forcing the input of a possibly incorrect zipcode would be undesirable.

Problem 2: I've got a table with 4,000 records where I have the zipcode, but the city and state information were lost, and I want to be able to re-populate those fields by writing, I guess, an update query that taps the info in the zipcode table.

Problem 3: When entering addresses, sometimes there won't be info about a certain zipcode, and I need some automatically generated dialog that allows adding city and state info for a new zipcode that won't slow down the entry of contact records.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Send an email if you prefer.

Forms :: Asset Tracking When Items With Unique ID Transferred From One City To Another

Aug 6, 2014

I have a task of managing hardware assets like desktop, monitor, HDD, routers etc. Each item is marked with a unique ID.

These items could be transferred from one city to another city; so need to track that too.

1. There will be two tables

One (say AssetDetail) will have the following fields
RecordID
City
AssetID
Description of the asset (desktop/monitor etc)
ProductSerialNumber of the asset

Second (say AssetTransfer) will have the additional fields
NewCity
AssetTransferredDate

2. I only want to open a single form :

a) where on the basis of either AssetID or the ProductSerialNumber, I could open a particular record and edit it.

i) if the asset is transferred from city A to city B; then the "City" field value in AssetDetail table should change to "city B"(New City field value).

ii) At the same time, each asset transfer record should get appended to the AssetTransfer table even if the table has an existing record with the same AssetID or ProductSerialNumber.

3. Also need an option to make a new entry to the AssetDetail table from the above mentioned single form.

First, Middle And Last Name

Feb 13, 2008

I have a list if names, some with a middle initial and some without, that are all in one field. eg George P Wingrove or Ada Wingrove. Can I run a query that will seperate the name into two or three fields? I have tried the following in a query, but not being very successful. FirstName:Left([Name],InStr(1,[Name]," ")-1), MiddleInitialTrim(Mid([Name],InStr(1,[Name]," ")+1,InStr(InStr (1, [Name], " ")+1,[Name]," ")-InStr(1,[Name]," "))) and LastName:IIf(InStr(InStr([Name]," ")+1,[Names]," ") <>0, Right([name],Len([name])-InStr(InStr([Name]," ")+1,[Name]," ")),Right([Name],Len([Name])-InStr([Name]," ")))
Unfortunately, it puts #Error if there is no middle initial. Any way round this problem?

SubForm In Middle Of Tab Order

Nov 3, 2005

Is it possible to set the Tab Order to move to a subform before all the controls in the Main form have been passed through, and then come back to the Main form where one left off?

I have a form with a client name and a chargable service, a subform with products and, on the main form again, amount tendered.

Logic dictates that one select all items for which one is paying before showing how much is paid.

Right now, I go through the client info, then chargable service, amount tendered, and then anything purchased on the subform. That's kinda bass ackwards.

I'd somehow like to insert the subform's controls into the Tab Order, after chargable service and before amount tendered.

Anyone know if I can do that, if so, how?

MsgBox To Show In The Middle Of The Form

Dec 30, 2006

Hi,

I have a Form that is modal and popup, and which opens without the MS Access in the background. It is like a separate window (piece of program) that runs under Windows XP.

If I move the Form on my screens (I have dual monitors) I would like that the messages that are triggered by various actions to appear on top of the form not - for example - on the other screen .

I can add more info if necessary.

Thanks for help.

Queries :: Find Field Name Not Field Value?

Mar 11, 2014

I'm trying to convince Access to find a value and then convert said value into the name of the field it came from.

Below is my current code:

Code:
LowestMark:
Minimum([AvgOfOpening1],[AvgOfConfidentiality1],[AvgOfEmail1],[AvgOfTenureStatement1],[AvgOfOwnership1],[AvgOfClearExplanation],[AvgOfProbing1],[AvgOfUseofTools1],[AvgOfResolveBeforeS2S1],[AvgOfBridgeSolutions],[AvgOfSummarizeWrapUp1],[AvgOfOfferFurtherAssistance1],[AvgOfOneFaceOneVoice1],[AvgOfAppreciateBrandCox1],[AvgOfInteractwithCustomer1])

(Minimum is from a module that finds the lowest value in the list.)

I need my query to tell me which field gives that value.

Example:

Agent Name AvgOfEmail1
instead of:
Agent Name 41.7%

how to make this work?
