I have a 1 row table as a result of 2 queries that give me the 'MaxYear' AS 'DefaultYear' and 'MaxWeek' AS 'DefaultWeek' in that year for a selected retailer and stores, from a master table.I want the default Year and Default Week text boxes to display the values of these
I have tried pointing to a table holds the results and pointing to the queries for each box...I have used Form.Refresh and Forms.Requery but nothing picks up my values.
Hi!,
I am trying to make something to make my job easier. To be honest I am a beginer in this field. I am having a field, when I enter one value ( let that be 10) it should pop up one form and if another value ( let that value be 20) it should pop up another form.
or else I can explain in this way
If data field value = 10 then it should run macro 1
& if data field value = 20 then it should run macro 2
thanks

In Access 2010 I have a Data Entry Form on which I have an unbound textbox in the header that the user can put a default date in. In the body of the form is a bound textbox that records the date and the default value is set as =defaultdatestat (obviously the name of the box in the header).
Problem: The default date shows up perfectly until a value is put in any of the other text boxes.
For further info : If you put values in text boxes default value disappears; if you then push escape the default value reappears when the values in the text boxes disappear.
I need to enter workload counts for 10 people, and it is done on a monthly basis. So I have a table of Months (Jan-Dec), a table of names, and a joined table with the months, names and a field for the workload counts.
I would like to make a form where I could select the month and all the names show up so I could go and enter the counts for everyone at the same time. I've attached a diagram to show what it would look like
how I can set multiple default values in a ComboBox in a form. The ComboBox is based on a table and my main table also uses the ComboBox.
Example:
Main table has a column "Brands". The ComboBox is based on another table which includes the following items (and thus the ComboBox also shows them):
- CocaCola
- Fanta
- Sprite
The form has the same ComboBox which is linked to the main table.
Now, if a user creates a new form entry, all ComboBox items should be preselected (checked). It does work with one item over the standard "Default" property.
I have a blank form that is usually entered from scratch, so all the fields are empty.
We do fill out the form with standard data occasionally, so I'd like to be able to assign a button or use a combo box to automatically fill those fields with predetermined data.
Two questions:
1) Can I use a 'on click' for a button to populate the data using this:
Code:
Me.Control1.DefaultValue = Chr(34) & Me.Control1 & Chr(34)
2) If I have a default value fill a combo box, will it save the bound column correctly since I didn't select it from the drop down itself?
I've got a form (frmMain) with two combo boxes (cmbCategory and cmbProducts). I have set the combo boxes up to be cascading, so that when you select a value in the cmbCategory box, it influences what is visible and selectable in the cmbProducts box. What I wanted to happen is this:
1. User selects a category
2. cmbProducts defaults to the most recently entered Product within that category, and the form pulls up that product's details.
I have the cascading combo boxes set up so cmbCategory has an AfterUpdate event that runs a macro. In the macro is the command to refresh the cmbProducts box, and the cmbProducts box's RecordSource is set to a query that filters the Products based on the value of the cmbCategory box. I then set the cmbProducts Default Value to a DMax command that pulls the largest ID number from the query. Everything works great, except when I choose one category (the correct product comes up, the latest one entered for that product), then go back and choose a different category without reloading the form. The cmbProducts box stays showing the previous Product, and doesn't automatically update with the latest product for the new category. So it works the first time out of the gate, then just stops working, and won't work until I close and reopen the form again.
I've tried the refresh command, and I've tried adding an AfterChange event to the cmbCategories box. Nothing seems to work! I also tried running a close form/open form command in cmbProducts' After Update to enable the DMax command again, but this blanks out my Categories and Products boxes (which it's supposed to... I don't want anything to come up when you first open the form, both should be blank until you start selecting values).

I have a form for entering Retirement Plan information (frmRRSP) that has tblRRSP as its recordsource. The RRSP Rate is a field with a Number datatype (in the table) and a Percent format on the form. When I enter a value on the form it originally displays the value I enter, until I press the Enter key, then it changes to "####" an enters a value of 0 in the table field.I tried entering a value directly in the table and it changes to 0 when I press Enter.I have an almost identical form and table for Vacation and it does the same thing.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHey there, Im currently making a form so users can enter project information. For this particular project, the user must choose from a variety of options, and each option has a number value assigned to it for a rating. Now at the end of this form, I want a sum of the ratings, and then entered into the table. I am using a text box for the sum of ratings, and can get the sum of ratings to work on the form, but this data is entered as a 0 in the table. If anyone could help me find a way to put the actual sum in the table, that would be excellent.. thx a lot.
If it would be any help, here are the names of text boxes that I'm adding:
Health and Safety Rating, Maintenance Rating, Equipment Rating, School Size Rating, Student Enrollment Rating, SD Priority Rating, Project Requested Previously Rating
Those ratings must be added into "Total Rating"
Thankyou!
Hi all,
Is it possible to make the default values of a table with symbols in it?
I have a database that returns results with pictures and links included. What Im trying to do is make it as quick as possible to enter information, i've got the ASP page returning everything correctly but I still have to copy n paste certain things onto every form entry in the database.
<img src="
<a target="_blank" href="
"
<a href="notify.asp?choice=
These are all the things I couldn't get into the ASP code on the page. When i enter data I just have to flick back a page, copy, flick forward and paste for every section that has symbols (theres about 7 of em)...... gets a bit annoying after only 5 pages.
I hope thats enough info and not too confusing. Thanks to anyone that can help.

Hi
The database is all about an athletics league, and i have set up a form for a query that i have made. When I open the form, i get the parameter box asking me which Venue ID i would like to choose, now what i would like is, whatever i type into that box to become the default value in one of the fields in the form.
i think that makes sense
Thanks In Advance

Hello,
I created a db for my property owners association. I have created a formula that adds up each year, but it won't let me do that unless I put in 0.00 for the blank fields. I was wondering if anybody could let me know if there is anyway that I can have 0.00 placed in the field so that my formula will work.
Thanks-

I have a form that when the user clicks a button a record is transferred to a new table/form. In the new form there are some extra fields that need to have default values in them. I tried setting the default values in the properties menu but that only works when creating a new record. Is there a way to have default values come up on a transferred record?
View 1 Replies View RelatedOn a form I have text box named ImageVersion, and it has a default value of AO-02.17.06. It is likely that the image version's will be updated, it would be helpful if the user could change the default value currently set.
Right now, I can do this temporarily, but it does not stay once the form is closed. If the form is closed, then opened, it reverts to the original default value set.
I am not using a split database. I have it setup on a server, and users access it through there.
Any suggestions?

Hi, in my database I have a 7 subforms that shows fields for daily tasks for each day of the week. On the Monday, the tasks are assigned and then stored for every record for the corresponding date. The process is done again on tuesday, then wednesday etc. However, often the daily tasks for say tuesday will be very similar (sometimes the same) to that of monday's.
Therefore is there a way to set the default values for each day as the previous days tasks and then alter them if needed?
Thanks for helping!:o
I am currently attempting to use SQL in Access to alter a table by adding a new attribute and giving it a default value. Creating the attribute is fine but i keep getting an error when attempting to assign a default value. My code is as follows:
ALTER TABLE Objects
ADD Status Text DEFAULT 'Object is Currently In';
It keeps telling me that I have a Syntax error.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Hi All,
I am hoping to create form that will prompt the user to enter default values for certain fields ie Week No and WB Date before allowing any data to be input into the form.
Any help on how to do this would be appreciated.

Hey guys,
I'm not sure how to do this, and I can't find any info about it, but is it possible to set a value for my date field to accept either
1) date
2) "TBD"
3) null
Is there a way to allow and exception of "TBD"?
This may be more a VBA question than a forms question.
I have a main form and a subform. The suform contains several fields and there are several records on it for any given record on the main form.
I also have a command button on the main form that creates a new record. I would like to have the default records to disply be based on the values from the previous subform.
I don't know if that is clear. An example the main form would contain a location and date and the subform would have sales figures for Tom, Jane and George for items a, b, and c. Tom, Jane and George would be records and a, b and c would be fields.
Generally a weeks worth of data would be entered and generally new values would be added for the same group of records from one day to the next for any given week, however, there might be times when more or less records were entered.
I would like to set it up so that the subform is populated with the same records as are in the subform before the command button is pressed to create a new record on the main form. For instance if on day one items sold are entered for Tom and Jane when a new record is created it would display Tom and Jane on the subform with blank values for items sold.
I thought I could use min or max to get a default value, but, the table that the values go into is by date so max might get the value for Tom but not Jane and George (I think).
Any Ideas?
Thanks
G'day,
I preface this question as most newbies do. I have just started using Access(2000) and have built rebuilt/converted from DOS a database for a basketball club. I did start from scratch and just inported the table data.
I have already made a number of forms and subforms, e.g. searching for a player displays all the other players in that team and displays the team staff from the relevant tables. So I understands the concepts.
What I have tried to do, and succeeded in part is to populate some of the fields of the Player Account records from the Fees table. I managed to do a query from the Fees table for this using a drop down for the FeeCode, which fills in the Fee Description and Fee Amount. However if I change the Fee Amount it changes all of the fee amounts for that Fee Code type. (I think I solved this myself as it is a query and that is what it should do, correct me if I am wrong). Note that all of the retrieved data is static except for the Fee Payment, which can be different amounts, this is where it changes the source. Also as it is a query I think , the retrieved data just shows on the screen and doesn't get written to the Accounts table (not the description though).
So I have obviously gone about this the wrong way and rebuilt the Accounts trying to use lookups. Here is my problem (finally you say). I cannot get the default value to lookup the fee table based on the fee code. Note I have not started on the VB side yet so please be easy on me. There is a drop down box for Fees Charged but this lists nothing, so like the query before nothing gets written to the Accounts table.
I think (maybe I don't) understand the lookup thing as I used an old (DOS) database before and did the same thing and was able to change the default value just for that account. i.e. lookup the table>field where the fee code is = to this. I have tried the subform wizard a few times but just cant get it right.
Should the lookup be in the table field or the subform. Am I on the right track and if so how do I get the retrieved info from the Fees table into the Accounts table. My end result should be something like this.
Fee Code(lookupFees - write to accounts), Description (lookupFees - display only), Fee Charged(lookupFees - write to accounts), Fees Paid(lookupfees - modify write to Accounts), Date(Accounts), Receipt Number(Accounts).
Thanks for taking the time to read this, I have tried to give as much information and hope I haven't given too much.

DrF :)
Hi, I am a newbie in MS Access. I am trying to write a simple database to record engineering drawings received. I would like to retain an entry into a field from a previous entry, but if it is slightly different allow the value to be overwritten.
For example:
If I receive a drawing from a particular person, (say) Osborne, then that is entered into the senders field. The next drawing I receive also from Osborne, wil already have Osborne in the entry field from the previous entry so I will not have to retype it. If a drawing is then received from someone else then Osborne is overtyped with the name of the new sender.
Anyone help a newbie with this please? Thanks
