I have a textbox on a form that i am pulling off of a table. the table stores the infor as listed below
customer ordernumber order description
Jeff 123 -abc
-def

Bill 456 -ghy
-hig
but when i bring the field into a form it lists it out the field of order description as below in a textbox, i used textbox b/c the the text can be pretty long

I am trying to use this expression in my textbox to show when the textbox value is null:
=IIf(IsNull([ContractStatus]),"Null",[ContractStatus])
It gives me a circular reference error (#error in the textbox). If I change it to this:
=IIf(IsNull([ContractStatus]),"Null","ContractStatus"), it will display the text "Contract Status" (obviously).
What am I overlooking here? Does this need to be done in VBA?
So, I have a main form with two continuous subforms like this:
frmContratos: main form
frmContInsumos: contains new products
frmInsumos: contains existing products
I want the user to highlight a word using a double click in a textbox called DescInsumo from frmContInsumos. And I want that highlighted portion to be used as filter for frmInsumos, which also has a textbox called DescInsumo. I used this and it's giving me the word, but it doesn't work with the double click event:
Code:
Private Sub DescInsumo_Click()
Debug.Print Me.DescInsumo.SelText
End Sub
How to copy the time automatically to text box to become time as data (rich text) when entering data to a form.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there an efficient way to have default text in a textbox on my form (like a search box), but have it so that when a user focuses on the textbox (to type in a search term), the word should disappear.
Just like the search box on windows 7 start menu.
Then, is there a way to have the default text not be the actual text in the box? Otherwise, my search box will search the default text.

But how?

Hello, I have a Field in a Table called Fund Codes and they are entered as text: 1, 2, 3, 4 all the way to 1000. Now i need to find away to change 1 to 001, 2 to 002, 3 to 003, 10 to 010, but leave 100 as 100 and 222 as 222, so only add 0s to numbers from 1 to 99. Is there a way to do it? I know i can change the text to numbers and use format to do that, but i need to leave it as text. Please help. Many thanks!
View 11 Replies View RelatedI have a table with the following fields:
Tool Text
Tool_ID Text
Description Text
The Tool_ID field holds a number if the tool provides a tool id. However, if the tool doesn't provide a tool id, the text "No tool ID given" is automatically placed into the field. Therefore, it needs to remain a text field for this reason and others that are too long to go into.
Anyway, I created a query that pulls only one specific tool which always provides a tool ID. Therefore, the results of my query will always have a number in the text field "Tool_ID".
Question: Is there a way to convert the text field to a number field within the query?
Thanks in advance!

I used the format text box in my query design to generate weekdays as text from my date field. It works great. However, I was hoping to produce some graphs where I could use those weekdays as 7 categories to plot against some other data. Now I am finding that to be a problem as the "real" format is a date and when I try to change the format in excel it creates this random number. Any suggestions on how to get around this problem. Thanks a bunch.

In a table I have a text field (Meeting Date) which contains the date in the format: "Wednesday 22 March 2006"
How do I convert this to a date of format dd/mm/yyyy?
I have created another field of type date called MDate, in the same table, and have tried experimenting with an update query.
CDate(Left([Meeting Date],4) & "/" & Mid([Meeting Date],5,2) & "/" & Right([Meeting Date],2))
But this has not worked. (If someone could explain the significance of the numbers in the function that would be helpful also - Access help did not provide this information)
Hi, I get the user input from a text box in a form, then i use it in the query.
in my query i used the DateDiff function in the expression. should I convert the data type from string (the user input from the text box) to date type first before using the DateDiff function?
in the SQL view, I wrote the following, but it says incorrect:
SELECT availability.machineName,
(DateDiff("d",CDate(Forms!frmMain!txtStartDate),CDate(Forms!frm Main!txtEndDate))+1)*24 AS totalMonthlyHours, availability.type
FROM availability
WHERE (availability.date)>=CDate(Forms!frmMain!txtStartDate) And (availability.date)<=CDate(forms!frmMain!txtEndDate)
GROUP BY availability.machineName, availability.type;
Thanks in advance.
Im trying to construct a query which returns a field that has 21 different types of values.
Is there a way to assign a text value to each numeric value when the results are displayed?
Eg: 21 = "Local Sales", 22 = "National Sales", 23 = "International Sales".. and so on.
Ive looked at the Choose and IIF functions but I cant seem to work it out
..............
Anouther little problem, which should be basic. I want to exclude certain records with values such as 31 and 41 and 42.
When i type <> 31 or <> 41 <> 42 in the criteria they are all still displayed. Although when I type one of those criteria by themselves they ARE EXCLUDED. Is there something dumb I am missing here??
thanks in advance.
I am sure it must be very simple but I can't find the command!
I need to convert a currency value to a text value for use in a combined string, say £123.00, to the text string "£123.00".
Basically I want one of the reports to say "£123.00 each less x% discount".
Currently I am using :
[Door Price] & " each less " & [Discount] & "% discount"
which will display "123 each less x% discount"
I could add the £ sign in code but if I add the .00 as well I will then have problems with a price of say £123.50!
Surely there must be a simple command that does this for me?
Cheers!

how to convert the value of option box ( 1, 2, 3, 4 ) into text.In my database, I want my field to contain "Permanent", "Seasonal", " Project", "Probationary" rather than 1, 2, 3, 4. How to get it in text ?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a field that is a combo box that I would like to convert into a text box. When I try to change the 'display control' to 'text' I loose all the information that is displayed in the field. I want to keep the current values that are there now, just do away with the combo box.
I have tried simple things like copy and paste, but that just makes the new field a combo box as well.

I have a database for billing. In my database, I have a form that consists of a main form "Order" and 2 subforms "OrderDetails" and "Customer" OrderDetails are to enter the products to be connected to the Order. All function super, but I want to have some information from one of the forms "copied" over to on of the others.

In the subform "OrderDetails" I have made a textbox that summarize all prices to a total, his tekstbox i called "Tekst31". I would like the amount in this textbox to appear in a field "Bel�b" in the main form "Order".

Hi,
I have a database with a query that returns a list of printers. This is created by finding all the printers in the database that take a perticular cartridge by code. Sample below.
PrinterName
-----------------
Some Printer 1
Some Printer 2
Some Printer 3
ETC
What I want to do is take the results from the query and convert it into a single line of text and place it into a column of a table related to that cartridge code.
So if say the cartridge code '12345' returns a list of printers such as;
printer 1
printer 2
printer 3
I want to take this data and turn it into a line like this;
printer 1, printer 2, printer 3
I then want to take this new line and place it in a column called Desc in another table relative to the original cartridge code.
table should look like this after query.
BEFORE:
CartCode | CartDesc | Price | Desc
12345 | Something here | 10.00 |
AFTER:
CartCode | CartDesc | Price | Desc
12345 | Something here | 10.00 | printer 1, printer 2, printer 3
I hope what I have said makes sence. I am pretty new to access and feel I have done quite well so far. Please can someone help me solve this problem?
Thank you
I want to have a question in my query that does not get answered by date but by a concatenated field named "MonthYearPeriod".
We always forget how many days in a month. But we remember the month and year. So for say a Sales Range of Nov 2006 to Oct 2007, we prefer to respond to the criteria question as: 11-2006 and then 10-2007.
FiscalMonth and FiscalYear are both Long Integer number fields in the table.
Query field concatenated:
MonthYearPeriod: [FiscalMonth] & "-" & [FiscalYear]
criteria line:
Between [Month-Year START DATE] And [Month-Year END DATE]
However, i get other crazy time periods. So this is not working. Maybe on the Query field box, I need extra coding to convert the number to text?
I assume that a Dash sign between the month and year are fine.
Thanks
