So i have query based on 1 table that populates a Form. The primary key for that table is Entity ID. Therefore once the query has been run I have multiple records that i can scroll through in my form distiguished by their Entity ID.
I have a second table that has a Entity ID column, AFE Available column, and many others. The primary key for this table is called Match ID. This table contains records that have the same Entity ID.
My goal is to display on the form the Sum of the "AFE Availible" for each Entity ID. so as you scroll through the records the Entity ID is changing and you are able to see a the Specific "AFE Availible" Sum related to the current Record showing on the form.
I couldn't figure out a way to have a query based off both tables where the records are only uniquely defined by the Entity ID in Budget Info. What was happening is the query was displaying all the records that had the same Entity ID because of the AFE Spent table. That way when you scroll through the records the form shoes records with the same entity id.
Maybe im doing it all wrong and you dont need the tables attached to the same query. That would make it easier i think. So you would have two queries populating different text boxes on a form. Is that even possible?
I understand right off the bat if you're reaction is "don't duplicate data!!" -- mine would be too (don't fret, I know my normalization).
I've linked a table in my db to my Global Address Book in Outlook 2007 and, upon entering an employee number as a new record, would like to verify that the number entered is listed in the GAL and then pull in the associated name and location info.
The key is that I don't want this info to rely on the GAL going forward. For example, if an employee leaves or is no longer listed in the GAL, I don't want to lose the employee info (past data is needed for audit purposes). Note: I will be creating a report later to show if there are discrepancies between the GAL and my table, but that's another story...
So, what would be the best auto-fill options in Access 2007?
I am wanting to populate a control in a form based off of two different fields in one table. Is that possible?I have a table called tblEmployeeMaster and it has a LastName column and a FirstName column in which I need to have both first and last name show up in one box on my form?
In my UpdateForm I have 3 fields. PartNumber, Description and SerialNumber. I use 2 tables for these. My MainTable and PartsList Table.
In my PartsList table I have the list of PartNumber in Column (0) and Description in column (1).
In my MainTable I have 4 fields: TransactionID (autoNumber), PartNumber(text), Description(text) and SerialNumber (text).
Now, In my UpdateForm I want the user to just select the PartNumber with a combo box (that also show the "Description" (I created this using the combo box wizard)). But I want to auto populate the field in my "Description" text box every time the user will enter new record and will also update my MainTable with all the values they entered in my UpdateForm.
I tried this codes in the after update of PartNumber combo box (properties):
i have a database in access 2003 when i open it with access 2003 it shows data in table but when i open same table in access 2007 it shows only header rows , no data
how can i see this data into access 2007 or excel 2007.i want to link these table data with excel 2007 or access 2007 but with above problem i can't do it
I have a table called BID with the following fields
bidder, seller, iid, starttime, bidtime, and bidprice
bidder is an id number that is reference to uid of table USER
the USER table have the following fields,
uid, uname, city, and state
I created a BID form for the user to enter data into the BID table. What I am trying to do but is having trouble with is have the user search for their name that may already be store in the uname field in the user table, and what ever they choose base on their search, the uid of this uname gets store into the bidder field of the bid table.
I still have a second step where the user in the bid form can search the iid but shows the itemname from the item table, and the value of seller, iid, and starttime from the auction table gets populated into the bid table.
iid from the auction table is reference to the itemtype and the following fields exist in the itemtype table.
I have a form with 3 combo boxes part No, Description, Cost. I have created a table with this information in I want to be able to select the information from either one of the three drop down boxes and the other two to automatically collect the information from the other colums of the table. Can anyone help please?
Upon opening a report (it does this randomly), the report opens and it is completelty blank - no lines, lables, or fields - nothing. However, when I click on an area, the group I clicked on will render and display perfectly. So when this happens, I either have to click every where on the page or scrolling up and down (if the report is long enough) will render the whole report. It doesn't do this everytime; about 25% of the time though.
As you can imagine, when other people use the database and this happens, they freak and just think access is broken. What is causing this or what can be done to prevent this from happening?
I have attached a portion of my database. if you go into the form called frmtest, select a branch from the very top drop down, select a detail and click the Edit button.how to have the information populate all the fields for editing. The Cost and Quantity fields work but my combo box fields don't properly work. The top combo box populates but when the record is updated it doesn't save the id. The second combo box doesn't even put the data in the data box.The main table where IDs and fields are is the BRANCH_EXP table, it's a linking table which links tables with many to many realationships.
I have a form that I have exported certain fields into a word doc (it is up and running just fine). I created bookmarks in word and put some VBA into my access form, so when I click on 'Create word report' it pops up and automatically populates the record I am on. Here is the tough question,
How to make this work with a continuous form? My main form has several subforms, one being a continuous form. The main form shows one bridge at a time. The sub continuous form shows information for all of the bridges spans (could be anywhere from 1 to 9).
You veterans have probably heard these questions many times, I've had a search around but couldn't find quite what i was after.
This is my first database.
I have 2 tables, one for customer details, and the other is products (holiday packages)
I have made a product form for staff to input new holiday packages. And for the customer form this is also the order form, so a staff member picks up the phone and gets customer details, name, ph, etc and then asks what holiday package they want. I want this to be a drop down list that always fetches all the packages availiable form the product table and when you choose a package it shows all the details on that package.
I need this all to be on the 1 form, if the staff member has to swap back and forth between customer form and product form to get info on a product this will severly hamper productivity.
If my question is abit hard to understand i can take screen shots of my tables/forms to get a better idea. And if someone can really help me finish this database off i'll pay them somethign for there trouble.
I have a form that contains a subform. On the main form, there are 3 fields: [IncidentNumber], [OpenDate] and [OpenTime]. The subform, [CtrlLog Detail] , contains the log entry details for each incident number. Every incident number can have many log entries. Two of the fields on the subform are [EntryDate] and [EntryTime]. The fields work correctly and the forms are fine.The issue Im having is when a new incident number is created the [OpenDate], [OpenTime] and [EntryDate], [EntryTime] MUST be equal because of some filter queries for statistics. Right now the user must physically type in the date/times in these 4 fields when they create a new incident number, which means I'm having lots of data entry errors.
Using default value on either [EntryDate] or [EntryTime] on the subform doesnt work because it doesnt create a primary key for the underlying table and the subform will not allow any other entry (due to some other linked values) until that PK is created. The forms are based on tables linked by [Activity_ID] as the primary key. I want to create some VBA code to see that if the Incident number is a new number (meaning the user must type in the new incident number creating the primary key for [Activity_ID]), that access will automatically populate the [EntryDate], [EntryTime] fields to match the [OpenDate], [OpenTime] fields on the main form. The user will manually populate the [OpenDate], [OpenTime].
If the number is an existing number (and the user is simply adding a log entry to the incident number) then I want [EntryDate], on the subform to default to the system date/time ([EntryTime] should remain blank for user entry) while keeping [OpenDate], [OpenTime] unchanged. When the [EntryDate], [EntryTime] fields are populated on creation of a new incident number, I want the PK for the underlying table ([Log_ID]) to be generated.
I have made a database. I have gotten to the point where I use a form to get the information. I am trying to get the information to auto populate fields after using 3 drop menus. They are department name, shop and shift. All of the information comes out of tbl department name, tbl shop and tbl shift.
I also have a table with department name, shop, shift, line, employee total, shift leader total, ratio of shift leaders per line and total employees off. I am trying to figure out once use the 3 drop down how can I Auto populate the remaining fields. Also I am trying to figure out where and how to put in the code.
I have a main screen that has a tabbed form in it. Each of those tabs has a sub-form in it that displays information and allows some information to be updated.
In one tab I have a query based sub-form that returns information related to the project. This information cannot be manipulated or changed as it comes out of a company managed database. I would like the analysts to be able to add more granular information to a new table by inputting information in a dropdown field for one of the new table fields, but utilizing two of the existing sub-forms fields as identifiers in the new table.
I am using Access 2007 and have reviewed many blogs and looked at the Northwind db to try to solve this problem. I would like to create a form that functions in the same manner as the "Order Details" form in the Northwind db. Specifically, I want to create a form that will allow me to input a value and have the form get data from another table and populate the table I need populated.
I would like to populate a table "Outside", field names are Key, Name, term, Value, Date.
The table that contains the data is named "CV" and the filed names are Key, Name.
In the form, I would like to enter a value for Key into a combo box, and have it put the value for Key and for Name into the form, and allow me to enter whatever I want to in the Term, Value and Date field. When I tab out, I would like all this data to be in the table "Outside.
I have form with an unbound combo box which is populated from a query
It should populate a field in a table which is related to another - however it only works when i query by id number (primary key) and not the text value i want - is it possible to query both so it returns say 1,option 1 - then when selected it will place a 1 in the table - which is related to option 1 in another table instead of just having to select '1' which will mean nothing to a user?
I have a Customers table and an Orders table. My Customers table is a bit different than the norm because I couldn't figure out any other way to do this.
My client's customers are either businesses (companies) with a contact person, or individual customers. So, in the Customers table, I have the following fields (there are others but do not apply to my problem):
Customer ID Company Contact Customer
So, if it is a company the data entry person would enter the company name and the full name (EX: Doe, John) in the contact field, but if it is an individual customer, then they would leave Company and Contact blank and enter just the Customer name (Ex: Doe, Jane).
So, in the Orders table, I have combo boxes for look ups for the fields Company and Customer.
That works okay, but I would really like for the Customer ID to post into a text box once the Company or Customer has been selected. In other words, the input person would enter the name, then it would show that Customer's ID #.
I would like to populate form fields with records from a table/query so that they are bound to the recordsource and the record to be displayed can be selected from a combobox. I am hoping that in this way, any changes made are propagated to the original table.
I have created a combobox from which the primary key can be selected and added all the fields from the table appearing on this form as values.
In my Change event for the combobox I have this code:
Private Sub cboID_Change() Me.RecordSource = "SELECT b01_Participants.*FROM b01_Participants WHERE (((b01_Participants.ParticipantID)= " & cboID.Column(1) & "));" Me.Refresh End Sub
However, I receive an 3075 error when this code runs which seems to relate to my syntax or an extra ")".
Is there an easy way to auto-populate a Junction table [in access 2010] given the following two tables with a many-to-many relationship for Tasks? The two tables are
If you want to use a "DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO" command to insert data in a table and the data to insert comes from a table and a form, could this be done in one pass?
So...writing a record wit 4 values from table1 together with a additional value from a textbox in table2 as 5 values.
Attached is a screenshot of the relationships in a database I built a couple of years ago. It's worked absolutely fine in Access 2003 and currently has over 18,000 customers with associated information in it.
However, when I open the database in Access 2007 the performance is awful. All the forms are very slow to respond when tabbing between form elements. I've experimented by reducing the number of form elements calling on related data on a given page and whilst this improves performance it reduces usability - something I don't want to compromise on especially since Access 2007 should be able to cope with this.
My next question is therefore whether I've got the most efficient underlying table design and I can't see any other way of doing it than my current method so I'd be grateful for any feedback or advice anyone has.
How can I auto populate fields based on a payment term & amount?
example: client has 9 monthly payment of $150 term due every 15th of the month. (I would like it to be able to max out at 30 months)
So what I want to do is populate 9 monthly fields with dates and $150 payments fields next to it. Now, the payment fields even after auto populate, must be flexible in the sense for me to add a different amount just in case client makes an over payment that month too. In, addition I would like a check mark box to auto populate along if possible based on the 9 month term, this way I can manually check TRUE when payment is received in office.
