Form Box Autofilling With Date And Number?
Sep 20, 2006
Hi all, and apologies for starting a fresh thread about this, but I can't find exactly what I'm trying to achieve via the search function, although I'm hoping it's just something simple I'm missing.
I have a small database that allows the user to click on a button to go an Add New Records form, which they then fill out. At the moment, the record number gets autofilled and they start entering details. However, one of the details they must enter is a unique record number, consisting of the month, the year, and a number between 01 and 99 (so the first new record created today, for example, would be record 090601, the second 090602, etc. The first next month would be 100601, and so on).
At the moment, I have to rely on people to manually enter this number, which requires them to view the current records first to ascertain whether there have been any previous records created that day (to prevent duplications).
What I'd really like is to have the this records box autofill when entering the form with the current month, current year, and then the number of the record for that day. However, it should automatically look at the last record created, and, if there's a match on the month and year, add one to the last 2 digits to ensure a new, unique record. So, for example, I have three records this month, listed as numbers 090601, 090602, and 090603 respectively. I go to create a new record, the box should autofill with the number 090604 and create a new record accordingly.
How do I acheive this?

I am sure this has been asked a thousand times, but I couldn't seem to find a thread.
I have a form, which contains a subform. When in the subform, I have a button to create a new main form and I want it to prefill in the data from some fields on the subform.
It looks like it should work, but #1, when I am in the main form inside the subform, the botton does nothing. If I open only the subform, then it at least works.
And #2, it definitely captures the values that I want, but it doesn't fill them in on the form.
Here is my code:
Private Sub Command44_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command44_Click
Dim doc As String
Static tit As String
Static desc As String
doc = "Business Requirement Document"
title = IssueType
desc = Issue
DoCmd.OpenForm doc, acNormal, , , acFormAdd
BRD_Title = title
BRD_Description = desc
Exit_Command44_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Command44_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Command44_Click
End Sub
Any help would be MUCH appreciated!!

I'm VERY new to MS Access 2010 - in fact, I used some online youtube videos to get me started with the database I'm currently working on.
Here's what I have so far: 2 tables, one for customer information (name, phone, addy, etc) and one for invoices (inv #, customer ID (which should be the same as my primary key from the customer info table), phone, services rendered, etc etc)
I'm currently working on a form for Invoices, where I can simply put in the customer's name, date, cost, etc without having to look up the ID# and phone number for every time I use it.

Hi there!
It's been almost 10 years since I've done any work with databases, so I'm really REALLY rusty and I barely remember how to do anything. I was wondering if you guys could help me out with a question I have in making a form.
I have 2 tables. The first table has a list of names and ID's. There exist some duplicate names, as some people are associated with more than one ID.
And there are two fields to the ID. One is Called the Client Code, and the other is the Client Division.
So the 1st table, in datasheet view, is basically:
# | Last Name | First Name | Client Code | Client Division
The second table is a list of addresses based on Client Code and Client Division:
# | Client Code | Client Division | Address 1 | Address 2 | Etc
----
What I'm trying to do is the following:
I'm trying to create a form such that as I'm typing in a last name, it does autolookup and auto filling. I may have multiple people with the Last name of Smith, so then it dynamically creates a dropdown box with all possible unique first names associated with the last name Smith. And after I choose/type in the first name, I get to two more dynamically created drop-down boxes that list all possible Client Codes and Client Divisions associated with this name. After choosing that, I figure it's a simple autolookup to populate the address fields.
Does anyone have any insight on how I can get this done? Another piece of functionality that I'm trying to work into this is that if the name doesn't exist or if there's a new Client Code and Client Division or a new address, the data gets automatically added to the respective tables.
Does anything of what I wrote make any sense?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
Imants

I am creating an Access program for logging in Parcels that are delivered and I am having some problems.
I have a Table called 'Contacts' and within this there are 4 Columns: 'Names', 'Departments', 'Extensions' and 'Emails'.
I also have a Form and there is 1 Combobox and 3 Textboxes relating to this Table: 'Addressed To', 'Department', 'Ext Number' & 'Email'. (see http://c0ld.homeip.net/parcel_log.jpg for details).
What I would like to do is select the Name from the Combobox (Addressed To) and the have the other Textboxes (Department, Ext Number & Email) get auto-filled with the corresponding data that’s within the Table for that Name.
If anyone would like the .mdb for this, please PM me.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Here's what I currently have:
- A table with a number of fields about a course
- A course commence date
- A number of days the course will take field
- No course end date
Is there a way to easy add one field to the other to:
Give end date i.e. do I need to write the code to validate all dates which bring the date over a month e.g. start date 29/sep/2007 and number of days 5.
Does date have the functionality already?
Thanks in advance

My challenge is to fix a broken report that results from a query. The query is suppose to bring up all records within a date range. The problem is that the table was designed with the date field being text. Dates such as 06/12/2006 are entered without the beginning 0, so simple queries do not work, and the data is simply 6122006. I think the data needs converted to date first, possibly by extracting and converting. I do not know how to do this because of the missing digit inconsistency. The table cannot be changed directly to a date field without data loss.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi Folks,
I use this to get a week number for a date range:
WeekNo: DatePart("ww",[Timestamp])
Is there a way that I could also get just the first date from that week number to appear in the query as well?
ie. if Week 1 is 3/1/07-3/7/07 the query would show 3/1/07 as well as week 1. TIA

I am trying to make a query that finds all records by the "Month Number" and have problems.
What I did:
Month(DateField)
I got month numbers like I wanted but when I typed in the criteria below, I got February thru December Records, but when I search on anything "up to" 9 it works fine.
I want:
Between{month1] and [month2]
Month1= 9 (example)
Month2= 12 (example)
Need results to be from the requested months but any year
I have to imagine it's how the date is converted to an integer, but not sure.
Any help would be great!

Hello,
I would appreciate if someone could help on this problem.
What I want to do is to add a field in a form that would automatically show the date of person's birth after entering the persons ID. For example, I enter 39101012345. The first number (3) shows only the gender so I don't need it. The next 6 numbers show the date of persons birth - it is 910101 and it means that the birthdate is 1991.01.01
I need this field in a date format because later I will have to do some calculations concerned with the birthdate of that person.
Thanks in advance!
p.s. beer for help is quaranteed! :)

Hi,
How can i do the following -
When a date is typed in a text box, ie, 17/01/05
I want a Query to return what Number week in the year it comes from.
In this example the result would be Week "3"
I'm sure this would be easy enough to do if i typed in every day in the year into a table with the
week number beside it.
Is there some code or a more straight forward way.
hope all makes sense, if not i can go into greater detail.
