I have a query that I am running based off two tables. To one of the tables I add a few blank fields as my boss wants me to calculate the accounting portion. I work at an budgets unit but as IT. Anyways, I ran the query and opened it in a form for the Analyst to input their numbers. So every other field is calculated. A + B = C.
I have something in field A and I am putting the input in field B to get teh results in field C. So that's say that I queried for a certain analyst and I get four records. When I input anything into first record the input is in all the records for field B. This is where I am having a problem. I only want to input into the the corresponding record and not all the records I query.
the proper code to prevent duplicate records in my form?
I'm using:
Private Sub Ctl_Lname_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) Dim dupCount As Long dupCount = DCount("*", "Clients", "[LastName]= '" & Me.[LastName] & "'" & " And " & "[PreferredName] = '" & Me.[PreferredName] & "'") If dupCount <> 0 Then Beep MsgBox
[code]....
"This name already exists in the database. Please check that you are not entering a duplicate person before continuing.", vbOKOnly,
Im trying to prevent duplicate records based on a PO # (RA_PO_Nbr), entered from a form. I'm trying to throw a 3022 error when the user attempts to enter a record that already exists, but I dont necessarily have to do it this way.
Code: Private Sub cmdSubmit_Click() On Error GoTo cmdSubmit_Click_Error Dim db As Database Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim strSQL As String strSQL = "CompanyPOTable"
I am working on a web database with a form which is bound to an underlying web table where the submissions occur.My challenge is that the fields on the form get submitted to the table even before the submit button is clicked regardless of whether the form was completely filled.
My request is that I want the form to only submit to the submission table only when the submit button is clicked.When I searched on the net, the only solutions I got are VBA written code but my web database cannot use VBA code.
VBA code:
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Private blnGood As Boolean Private Sub cmdSave_Click() blnGood = True Call DoCmd.RunCommand(acCmdSaveRecord) blnGood = False End Sub
ItemNo Name ImageName DateRecd 123 Foo 00123.jog 1/1/06 123 Foo 00FOO.jpg 10/11/06 123 FOO FOO123.jpg 7/5/04 456 bar 00456.jog 6/10/06 456 BAR 00BAR.jpg 7/5/00 456 Bar BAR456.jpg 11/23/06
How would I write / get a query to run and show me, the 2nd item numbers, the 123 but only the most recent date so 10/11/06 and for itemno 456 the item dated 11/23/06
I have a form with a combo drop down box to select item from.The problem is once i've picked from a list this result shows up on all forms from #1 to end. I only need value picked to become record, only for that record.
I have a form that uses VBA codes to write all the info from the controls in the form into different relational tables. I was stopped at the point that I wanted to have repeating controls. Collect multiple instances of the same type of data, such as in the case of writing many people's Name, Age and Specialty in the Employees table. How do I do that? What is the VBA code for this task?
Made some tables with data, then wanted to filter it by form with comboboxes approx 10 of them, so started to write a simple query but it doesn't really work. Then I found this forum and when started to review some threads, noticed that some (most) of you write a query in vba under a button with on_click function.
The question is, what is the correct way of writing a query? Is is a vba code under a button, or is it a code in the actual query?
I can create a dropdown list to filter my form (text) however im struggling to get back to showing all the data prior to my drop down selection.
ive tried refreshing and requerying with no success.
I would either like to get a drop down with the addition of "all records" in it or a refresh button.
the form that this is on is a sub form.
I could reference the drop down to a number if required.
Additionally: When I have selected my choice from the drop down box it blacks out "selects all". Is there away of making the list just select and lose focus so to speak.
I have added a listbox inside my form that needs to filter records based on a field in the databases. For example if I have a record that has the field filled in with a text "reports", then it should only show those record that are on the second listbox. I have duplicated Outlook as an access database where I store all the old emails. The first listbox is called "FolderNames" where it shows all the folders names that are in the column called "FolderNames". The second Listbox is called "Subject" and shows all the subjects from the colun called "Subject".So when I select from the first listbox "Reports", then all the records that have the field filled in with "Reports" should show up in the second listbox.
I have an unbound form with a combo box and a bound subform on it.
I am using the combo box to get a value to filter (and display) records in the subform.
My code is:
Private Sub cboSessions_AfterUpdate() On Error GoTo cboSessions_AfterUpdate_Err Me.SSubform.Visible = True 'subform was initially invisible Me.SSubform.Form.FilterOn = True Me.SSubform.Form.Filter = "[LinkID]=" & Me.cboSessions Me.SSubform.Form.Requery cboSessions_AfterUpdate_Exit: Exit Sub cboSessions_AfterUpdate_Err: MsgBox Err.Description, vbCritical, "PROGRAM ERROR" Resume cboSessions_AfterUpdate_Exit End Sub
The subform is initially invisible to stop it showing all records.
This works fine AFTER the first selection(!) - the first Update of the Combo Box just doesn't filter the subform??
I have tried putting code in the main form's On Load Event - allocating a value to the Combo Box and running cboSessions_AfterUpdate but that does not work either.
I have a summary form with the company name,week number, week-ending automatically populated. e.g. this week is week 4 and users enter records for week 4 as the week number is automatically generated. Basically the system will just recognise today's date and generate the week number. Problem is I am trying to display previous week records and I do not know how to filter it as my week number is generated automatically, week by week. All the other forms are linked to this week number. How can I display records for a specific week that I want? say, I want to display all records for week2, etc. I am dumbfounded as I am on a learning curve with Access.
I have two text boxes and I'm wondering how I can filter my records of my table (through my query), between two numbers on my form. So for example lets call the two text boxes Num1 and Num2, the logical process is:
Code: IF Num1 or Num2 IS empty THEN filter records with "*" ELSE IF Num1 and Num2 contain a number THEN filter records between those two numbers
SQL, Me.Filter, BETWEEN in criteria. How I can accomplish this.
I have created a form for a table which contains ~600 movies and their name, genre, rating, director, year it was made, and length (min).I need to be able to enter numbers into the two Year boxes, and then it filters the movies in my database and only shows me records from between those two years. The years in my database are just in one column in the format of: XXXX e.g. 1996 etc..I've tried the code:
Code:
Private Sub Year2_AfterUpdate() Me.Filter = "[Year] BETWEEN" & Me.Year1 & "AND" & Me.Year2 Me.Filteron = True Debug.Print "[Year] BETWEEN" & Me.Year1 & "AND" & Me.Year2 End Sub
Year1 and Year2 are the boxes Year: and To: respectively. [Year] just being the column name which contains all my years.When I try to run my query it shows me my records, but it shows me all of them! It doesn't filter it at all!
I have a main form with 3 subforms. Each subform is identical except for the value of the filter property. The filter is for the same field, but with a different value for each subform. So, for example, the first subform has a filter of:
Code: [WBS Element]="DEF" And [Period]=Forms!frm_ProjectFinancials!Period
while the second subform has a filter of:
Code: [WBS Element]="PPE" And [Period]=Forms!frm_ProjectFinancials!Period
and the third subform has a filter of:
Code: [WBS Element]="EXP" And [Period]=Forms!frm_ProjectFinancials!Period
The recordset for each subform results in a single record with numeric values in each field or no records at all. When the resulting recordset is empty (no records), the bound text fields on the subform display as blank. I want these fields to display 0 instead of blank so I can use them in other calculated fields. Functions such as Nz or IsNumeric do not work since there are no records and the values are neither null nor numeric.
How I can display zeroes in the bound fields when no records exist that meet the filter criteria? Or is there a way that I can dummy a resulting recordset to have all zero values when there would otherwise be no records?
I have been building a database for use in a charity shop and am struggling with an issue regarding one of the forms.
I currently have a form which displays all expenses from the shop. I have added a combo box to the top of this form which allows users to filter records based on an expense ID Code. It all works fine but I would like to be able to add a start date and end date box to the form also so that records can be shown between two dates.
I have tried adding parameter boxes to the query which runs the form (which works) but the issue I am having is that when a new id is selected from the combo box the parameter boxes pop up again asking me for start date and end date again. This happens every time a new combo box id is selected.
I think the way resolve this issue may be to add a start date and end date box to the form but I don't know how to implement this.
Please see the attached files for images of what I currently have. The forum won't let me post images directly here until I have 10 posts so I have had to attach the files instead.:

I have created a piece of code that filters a sub form of diary records using criteria the user has selected or entered. It was working fine when I made it a month or so ago and now is seems to be returning incorrectly filtered records, for example, I enter 2 dates to return all diary entries between the 2 dates. Yet it misses some records out that should be within the date range, and it sometimes include records that are outside the date range. I am also getting an error when I try and filter the diary entries via the supplier, "data type mismatch", here's the code that, bearing in mind, was previously working fine.
Code: Public Function filter_diary() Dim dbs As Database 'Dim qdf As QueryDef Dim Sqlstr As String Dim sqlstrwhat As String
I'm trying to hash two scripts I've found into 1 functioning filter, however I'm still relatively new to vba and can't figure out how to get this working.
I'm trying to use Allen Browne's Search Criteria:
with another snippete of code I found here:
Code: 'Purpose: This module illustrates how to create a search form, _ where the user can enter as many or few criteria as they wish, _ and results are shown one per line.
[Code]....
It's the date part I'm having trouble with, the rest of the search criteria work fine without the date, but I can't get it working when I try to modify and merge the date sections of each code.
Also I'm using a listbox for the "Yesterday";"Last 4 days";"Last 9 days" and not a combo box.
Hi everyone. Apologies if this has come up before, but the search terms I've tried here and on google keep turning up the wrong information.
At work I manage a large database with many tables. It stores data for participants in a research study. Each table stores the data for a different test, so one participant may have multiple records. Primary keys for these tables are defined by a combination of the participant and date of test fields. (Everything is dependent upon a table that stores the static info for participants, so the database is normalized.)
I want to be able to make a table that lists target participants and dates, and then create a query that looks at this table and pulls all the available data from various tables for those individuals that was recorded within one year of the target dates.
I've successfully made queries that meet these criteria while pulling data from only one table. The problem I'm having is that when I try to pull from multiple tables, each with it's own date field that needs to be used as a criterion, I end up excluding almost all the data, because most of the target participants do not have all the requested data within the target dates.
I've tried being inclusive with my criteria (using ORs), but then I end up with tons of data that I don't want and I need to filter through it, which defeats the purpose of the query.
Any advice on handling this issue, or do I basically just need to create a separate query for each table?
I'm sorry if this is too vague, but it's illegal for me to upload any of my own dataset. I could probably come up with an example if it's helpful, though.
The recordsource is a query with over 6,000 records. The form currently lists the records in datasheet format with header and footer for things like buttons and filtering. The client wants to be able to go from page to page of the souce query, showing 100 records on the form at a time.
But at the same time, they should be able to filter or sort the data source in it's entirety. The person who created the form came up with what seems like an awful solution to the problem. It seems to use a random number generator to determine how many records to portray at a time. I see this in the code as well as in operation, because the number of records on page to page varies. It doesn't even start out at 100! Worse yet, using a sort on the page only sorts the records that are visible.
What is the best way to prevent widowed records? By widow record I mean records in the parent table that do not have a related record in the child table.
I have a tblOrder that is linked to a tblProductOrder by the OrderID field. I don't want the user to be able to create a record in tblOrder without adding some products to the order, which will be stored in tblProductOrder.
I have a database with several forms, tables, queries etc. and it works fine. One of the users of the database accidentally deleted a record which was displayed by a query. I have selected AllowDelections = No in all object properties. Despite this, the record got deleted. Is there a way to prevent such deletions? Kindly help.
I have a form, that once prompted, finds a certain record for the user. How do I prevent the user from being able to see any other records but that one, once the form is opened? The user needs to be able to edit the particular record they opened, without viewing or editing any other records in the database. Is there a way to hide the bar at the bottom of the form that allows users to manipulate through the different records?
