Hello,
Is their a a way I can have a button or something in which duplicates all the data in the text boxes instead of re-entering data?
Also how can I sort data (DATES) that is in a form in descending order.
Thank you,

Hello,
I have a simple invoice database with a primary key in the main table (with autonumber as invoice no.) and a subform with the item details which is without a primary key with the data type as numbers. In addition, I had the tables linked as one to many relationship. What happen is that when I am entering the data, the number jumps . For eg: It was suppose to be 7123 but the next entry was 7150. Pls kindly advice.
Happy new year everyone.
I have a table in which the data input comes from a dropdown list selected in a form combo box as:
contract signed
PIN issued
PDD issued
validation finished
Host country approval
EB approved
CER's issued.
I am designing a report in which I want to display the above list in Ascending or Descending order but as shown rather than alphabetically.
What I mean is no matter how the information is on the table the report showd display it in Ascending as contract signed, PIN issued, etc and in Descending as CER's issued, EB approved, Host country approval , etc.
Any ideas?
Thank you

Hello friends,
Please can anyone tell me how i can make the selections in my combo box (combo is bound to column1 of a table) appear in ascending order, by name (column2).
I.e. It's bound by column 1 (with is the Id#), but i want it to appear in ascending by column 2 (Usernames) to make selections easier. Please help :)
My question is simple: I've got a database of my book collection. If i view it in a style sheet, it is something like
Author Title etc.
A 0
C 1
B 3
F 2
D 5
D 4
A 8
F 9
I would like to order the Author and Title columns (permanently). Particularly, I would like to order in alphabetical order all the authors and, if I've got the same author, order his/her book alphabetically, something like:
Author Title etc.
A 0
A 8
B 3
C 1
D 4
D 5
F 9
How can I achieve this?
I have this form for data entry. I want to sort a field in a certain way which is neither ascending nor descending. The items in this field should be ordered as say, C, A, D, B. What I want is a custom order. How can we do it?
The field I am referring to is not on this form, but in the underlying table.
I am thinking of a VB code to achieve this purpose, where I can define the order. But not sure how to do it.
I have an acces form to input client orders. Each order has its own order number a different client. On the same form I have a button to generate a report based on the inpuuted data on the same form which works perfectly fine.
Now I need to use same report to save each order in a specific folder on my computer in pdf format. However I would like to have the file generated as follows ordernumber "-" clientname.pdf. This way each order is saved in the same folder without overwriting the previous one.
Hi all, i have a form with a subform, the main form has a field named: "shiftname" and i would like it so that when the form is opened the cursor is on that field but instead the cursor is on the first field of my subform. Ive tried changing the tab order on the main form (selecting form header, then shiftname) but this doesnt seem to work :( is there a bit of code i can use to force the form to open with the cursor in the "shiftname" field instead?

I basically have a combo box which contains a field list. Then two buttons (asc. and desc.), then a text box for filter, a button to filter, and another button to reset filter. Here's my code:
Code:
Private Sub cmdAscending_Click()
If IsNull(Me.cboField) Then
MsgBox "Please choose a field.", vbOKOnly, "No field to sort."
Else
Me.OrderBy = Me.cboField
Me.OrderByOn = True

I have after much stress gotten my comments history field to appear on a form.
The following code gives me what I needed
Code:
=ColumnHistory([RecordSource],"LastUpdateBy","[ID]=" & Nz([ID],0))
I have only one simple thing left, that is perplexing to say the least.
Some comment fields will be many short notes, spread over time.
My desire is to change the sort order of the results so the most recent (rather than the initial) comment is at the top.
I have my Assets form and the primary key is the ChargerID, in this form I have an "Add New Job For This Asset" button, which opens up the Jobs form at a new record.
How do I make it so that the ChargerID field is automatically filled with whatever the previous record was instead of being blank.
For example if I have Charger12345 open in the Asset form, I'd like to click the Add New Job button and it automatically have Charger12345 in the ChargerID field of the Jobs form.
Using Access 2010. Fairly new to automation and macros.I have two tables (tblProductReceived and tblBins) and a form (frmProductReceived).A field in tblBins corresponds to a location the bin is at (named BinLocationID) and the tblProductReceived table tracks product that a specific bin has received.
What I need is for the tblProductReceived field PRLocationID ([tblProductReceived].[PRLocationID]) to be automatically populated with where the bin is at ([tblBins].[BinLocationID]) when selecting a specific bin in the form (frmProductReceived).
I am making a very simple 'registration' database for a children's event in a couple of weeks.I the table/form there is a checkbox field called 'consent' which, if checked, indicates that a child can leave the event without parental consent.
There is a report printed on each child (a registration page which the leaders get a copy of). I would like on this report a 'red box' to appear if the child cannot leave without permission (i.e. the consent box is not checked). I would also like this 'red box' to appear on the form. I had thought of doing it this way - but I'm not sure if it's the best, or if it's possible:
Have a field in my table called 'consentindicator'. When the 'consent' box is checked, there is a period ('.') placed into the 'consentindicator' field. It is set to turn red when a period is present. That way, when the consent box is checked, a get a red 'box'.
This is something I occasionally see in Access and has been bugging me for quite a while.
As an example, when I have a table (all text fields except for the ID field which is an Autonumber with a unique index - ie just what Access creates when you import data) and I try to make a new table from a query by indexing the Autonumber field in descending order (ie to reverse the order of the table), it doesn't work properly.
So if I have:
SELECT [mytable].* INTO [mytable sorted] FROM [mytable] ORDER BY [mytable].[ID] DESC;
When I preview the data (ie run the select query to have a look at it), it looks fine.
When I change the query to a 'Make Table' and I then I check the table it makes, the order changes part-way down the list, so looking at the ID field it runs from number 2669 down to 2087 correctly, then it goes from 1960 to 1956, then 1803 to 1799, then 1751 to 1747, etc etc etc. After a while it seems to correct itself again, and orders normally down to #1
I'm using Access 2002.
I have an inventory database with a few tables:
1 with product info
1 with customer info
1 with incoming stock
1 with outgoing stock (orders)
I also have 3 query's:
Total incoming stock per product
Total outgoing stock per product
Total current stock per product (based on the 2 above queries)
I'm trying to make a form through which orders can be placed, and I want to limit the amount that can be ordered based on how much stock there is.
I've been told I can use the 'before update' event on the form to achieve this, but where to start. Do I use a Macro, an Expression, or do I need code?
Also, currently the record source for this form is the outgoing stock table, but I guess I'll need to add my 'current stock' query to the sources before this can work? And maybe even my other 2 queries because my 'stock' query is based on the other 2? But I can't really seem to get that to work either.
I have a production database in which orders are checked for shortages at different levels of production in which :
1 raw product can be fetched in 2 or more final products, Shortages are checked as per priority.
In this database i have tables named "finalproductlist" and "rawproductslist" in which products are connected in one to many (see table "productmapping"). For E.g. 1 product in raw table can be fetched into 2 or more final products.
I have stocks query on both levels with which shortage is checked.
I want to create the order shortage query which gives the shortage at both levels prioritywise.
I have a form with a dataset based on a table. (there are a number of buttons on the form with code so it's important I don't delete the form and start again with a new one)
The data displays correctly but the order is wrong. It displays the last record added as the first record when viewed in form view.
I want to reverse this order, how do i go about it? It seems very simple but I've yet to find a solution.
I also don't want to base it on a query because of the code mentioned earlier.
I have created an access application for production system .
I have a final stock query and 2 to 3 orders based on priority and i want to create a shortage list based on priority ... here is detail :
ItemName....|Stock qty....|ORDER1....|ORDER2....|ORDER3....|
A.................|200............|40............. |90............|100...........|
B.................|500............|0.............. .|400..........|200...........|
C.................|30..............|40............ .|0..............|20............|
D.................|0...............|0............. ..|10............|0...............|
E.................|900............|400...........| 300..........|280...........|
F.................|130............|200...........| 50............|0...............|
Now I want shortage as:
ITEM NAME |O1 SHORTAGE | O2 SHORTAGE | O3 SHORTAGE|
A................|00..................|00......... ..........|30..................|
B................|00..................|00......... ..........|100.................|
C................|10..................|00......... ..........|20...................|
D................|00..................|10......... ..........|00...................|
E................|00..................|00......... ..........|80...................|
F................|70..................|50......... ...........|00...................|
What method Do I use to write a query as I have hundreds of Products and 40-50 orders????????
I am looking into re-creating something I have created in Microsoft Excel into Microsoft Access.What I do in the Excel spreadsheet, is when I type in an order number, various fields in the spreadsheet are populated using vlookups and ODBC's.
I wish to re-create this in Access but not sure how. I have a basic form, with various fields such as, order number, part number, description, quantity.What I have in my mind is that I would like to be able to type in an order number, then the rest of the fields would be populated by a query to a SQL Server database.i can see a way to do this using VBA but would rather look for a more direct way if possible.
I have one table containing name of restaurant with its address etc. Then i created another table to list out the restaurant workers names and details. Just as an example,
Table:Restaurant
Restaurant name
Address line 1
Address line 2
Restaurant #
Website
Table:StaffContact
Staff Role
Name
speciality
email
phone
I have the main form that has all the restaurant details only. And i have another form containing the Staff information. Please note the two table have a relation and it works well.
Now to make it user friendly(basically easier for the lazy ones), I dragged the staff contact form on to my main form and displayed it as a datasheet(basically a sub form).
Now, my boss does not want users to add/delete on this sub form(datasheet). So,he wants me to create buttons to open new record of staff for each restaurant(new form)
My issue is with opening a new record to enter a new person to the staff list and give them a role as well in form view.The new form has
So i ran a Macro, with open form with Where condition
Code:
[Staffcontact]![Rest Name]=[Forms]![MainForm]![RestaurantName]
But, it does not work .

After some research I thought I had found a neat way to SELECT records from a table based on an 'IN' clause and sort them in the same order as the values for the 'IN' clause... i.e.
Code:
SELECT Unique_No, Table_Name, List_Order FROM My_Table
WHERE Table_Name = 'Titles'
AND List_Order IN (3,1,15,4,5,12,7,2)
ORDER BY INSTR('3,1,15,4,5,12,7,2', List_Order)
Unfortunately, this returns list_order 5 just after 15 and list_order 2 just after 12, thus
List_Order
3
1
15
5
4
12
2

I have a form (Suppliers) with a button that opens another form (Product List).
At the moment the form (Product List) is set as a pop-up form and when opened lists all products.
I want to filter the pop-up form to only display products for the current supplier displayed in the Supplier Form.
I have tried the following below without success - I have varied this but the filter does not apply ...
Private Sub Form_Load()
DoCmd.OpenForm "Product List", acNormal, , "SupplierID = " & SupplierID
End Sub
I am using access 2010. I technically have an unbound form but I am changing the record source by command buttons. Switching between 3 command buttons. My problem is that I have a subform that I was linking to the form to an unbound search field. Now I want to switch the master and child links to a field on the form when I switch the record source which happen to be the same field as the unbound search field; however; it still pulls from the unbound search field rather than the field on the form. Do I need to delete the search field in order to get is to point to the appropriate field?

what I need is if the person picks on coke the next drop down menu type of drink it should only show those related to coke.
original coke cola
diet coke
coke with vanilla
coke with lemon
what i am getting is the second drop down shows everyhting and if the user makes a mistake the reports ie chose coke but in the next field chooses diet pepsi, the data does not make any sense. is there any way to limit the second drop down based on the choice in the first drop down.if there are any ideas to help in this matter maybe some VBA or macro may be required, i am not too sure open for suggestions and help would be appreciated.
Thanks
