I am attempting to manipulate the Format Property of a Textbox. As an example, entering in &" lbs" causes your text to end with " lbs".... only I am trying to add a " mark, for example saying something is 6" away...
Is it possible to format a textbox such that a negative value doesn't show numerically but in some other form (like a cross or exclamation mark from the Wingdings font, for example?)
I have a couple of textboxes which take their values from a function. The function is designed to return a long integer value which should always be greater than or equal to zero (the function counts the number of outstanding e-mails in a given Outlook folder, hence it should always be zero or higher)
However, as part of my error handling, if the function can't connect to the Outlook folder for whatever reason (for example, if the user does not have the appropriate permissions, or they do not have it mapped etc.), then it returns -1 (so I have some sort of value to identify a fail)
So currently, if such an error occurs, my textbox(es) will show -1 (and I can use conditional formatting to highlight this)
But it would be nice if it showed an "X" or "!" instead, and only showed the numerical value for 0 or positive. Is this possible?
The current database has the following tables (fields):-
1. Salesman List (Salesman, Supervisor)
2. Customer List (Customer No, Customer Name, Salesman)
3. Product List (Product Name, Product No, Price)
4. Quotation list (Quotation No, Salesman, Customer No, Customer Name, Product Name, Product No, Price) - The data of this table is input by a quotation form.
I'm trying to create a quotation form (by using the quotation list) for others to input. My questions are:-
1. In the quotation form, there's a Supervisor field (which is not in the quotation list table). I want the value in the Supervisor field to show up according to the Salesman selected in the form. So, I'm using the sub-form method (Main form:Quotation form; Subform: Salesman List form). Am I doing correct?
2. While inputing data into the form, one should select Salesman first and then Customer Name (by doing so, only the customers of which the Salesman is responsible are shown in the list for selection - this will need to link up the customer list table). How can I do this?
3. For Product No and Product Name in the form, we assume one customer may ask for quotations of many items. When I just copy and paste the Product No and Product Name several times in order to create several fields, I find that when I input one field (let's say Product No), all other Product No fields will show up the same product no as well. They are not treated separately. How should I fix this problem?
4. For the product price, I want the price in the Product List will show up according to the product I choose in the form. But then, it will allow me to amend as needed.
5. Finally, I want to place the save and submission buttons at the end of the form. Once it's done, the form will be sent to the Supervisor. The supervior will review and approve if correct. The Salesman can look up the database and be able to see the status of the quotation as:new/ waiting for approval/ approved by.... by opening the submitted quotation form (the status will be shown on the top of the form).
I have a date textbox (Week_Ending) and number textbox (Staff_ID) in a form (frmHourEnter), when both have values I open another form (frmStaffReport) with textboxes (txtDateStart and cmbStaff).
How do I open the second form with the values of the first form pre-entered?
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.
Here is what I would like
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".
I have tried some different commands, but nothing has worked, also I have made a query which dose the same ting as the tekstboks, as the information in that tekstbox it not stored anywhere.
I have a form orders with a subform orderdetails where we can order more than one product. When the order is finished you save it with a save button where it will also automathically mark the products ordered as not available. Now, this code works, the problem is that it only marks one product. how do you make it mark all the products that where ordered (in orderdetails - the subform)? :
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, acSaveRecord, , acMenuVer70 'set values here! 'loop? Dim stAvai As String Dim strSetProd As String
Hi folks, I've searched through the forums and found a little on tab controls, but haven't been able to figure out what I am trying to do.
I have a form with mutliple tabs, each of which contains a subform related to the form on the first tab.
When I am scrolling through the records, I might select the fourth or fifth tab to view that subform, and then, when I scroll to the next record (using the nav bar) I want to stay on that tab... but so far, my form always defaults back to the first tab.
Any suggestions on how I can keep the form open on the tab that has the focus would be a great help. Thanking all readers in advance....
I've got a bit of a problem with # mark when I want to search a number containing "#". The number is as follows: 33.#5hy4-1234When I insert a part of this number to a textbox eg. #5hy to search records containg it, it gives me no results (despite there are such in a database) I know that it is to do with this # mark. I have an sql query: (...) where sachnummer like '*" & variable & "*'
I have a text box on 'Forma' & a textbox (named text3) on 'Formb'. I want to copy the contents of the textbox from 'Formb' to the textbox on 'Forma'. I have used the following code in the textbox on 'Forma'....

This doesn't seem to be working whether both Forms are open or only 'Forma'. Could somebody please advise as to what I am missing. Your assistance is very much appreciated.
In SQL in MS Access a '?' '*' '%' are all used as a wildcards.
I need to be able to retrieve all messsages which contain a '?' within the message. i.e. If a message contains the following characters : why?
I want to retrieve the message as a '?' is part of the message.
When I write the code :
SELECT User.User, Message.Message FROM Message INNER JOIN [User] ON Message.[Message ID]=User.[Message ID] WHERE Message Like '*?*';
Access takes the '?' as a wildcard and retrieves all the messages in the database. Is it possible to get round this and use '?' as a specific character.. not a wildcard?
I have a form with an image embedded in it. I want to be able to click on the image and leave a "dot" or "mark" where i have clicked, allowing me to click in multiple places on the image and leave multiple "dots"

I currently have two froms, "add record" and "add record cont." The reason I have two seperate forms is because when clients create a new record information needs to be saved to two different tables and when creating one from with fields from both tables I ran into many problems. The two tables are named : tblMain, tblFileLoc Currently there is a textbox on both forms named "fileID" the FileID in the first form is from tblMain and is the primary key for that table, the FileID on the second form "Add Record Cont." is just a normal field. When clients enter in the new FileID in the first form "Add Record" and then move onto the next form "Add Record Cont." i need access to bring the entered FileID from the first form and Fill it in the FileID field in the second form. Currently I have tried making the control source for the textbox on the second form = the textbox on the first form but it brought up an error.
This is probably real easy to do, but ........ I have a field in Access that looks like this:
"12:12:01 PM 12/5/2005, 5:00:01 AM 12/6/2005, 7:00:25 AM 12/6/2005"
From this string, all I want is the last Date entry (mm/dd/yyyy). Thus in this result, it would be 12/6/2005. I know how to use the Right(), Left() and Mid() functions, but I do not want quotation marks included in my result.
I have a statement which is driving me nuts...i'm a beginner with using SQL:
Private Sub Command45_Click()
Me.Graph0.RowSource = "SELECT (Format([Date],""" """mmm""" ''yy')) AS Expr1 FROM Chart_Unsafe_Daily GROUP BY (Format([Date],'mmm'' '''yy")), (Year([Date])*12+Month([Date])-1);
End Sub
The statement is RED for an error, i'm sure it is because the quotation marks within the statement are incorrect.
I have started a type of CRM database in which all my customer information and product info is stored.
In order to create quotations for each customer, I want to be able to search and select products by product ID, adding quantities if necessary, to be printed as a report.
Hello I am trying to design a CD label 'report', it's going well except that the title field of our productions has to print with quotation marks around it'. The name of the field is, yes you guessed it, TITLE. I know it must be a simple solution but I'm at a loss to find it or understand it. I'm just a dumbo. Thanks for your time and expertise.
I have a Dell keyboard at work and I am trying to find the keycode to the apostrophe/quotation key. I want to disable this when pushed with the ctrl key. I've searched online but could not find anything that shows that specific key. I only see apostrophe keys or quotation keys but not the combination of both which is what I have.
In the highlighted line of code attached I am comparing two strings one from a snapshot recordset and one from an array.
The logic fails, you can see in the watches window both values equal "DESIGN and the elseif statement should execute but it does not.
The only reason I can see for this is that the values are equal to "DESIGN and not DESIGN. Where this single quotation mark comes from I do not know. It is not visible in the tables and it does not appear when the values are printed into excel.
I am using an access program with a form with detail section. I would like to create auto sr.No when i am creating a new quotation. Using Autonumber didn't work because it start numbering from last quotation.
My Main Table in my Database is "Quotation", what do i need to do in order to create a new Main Table called "Quotation Tracker" and "Quotation" would now be under "Quotation Tracker"
I created a query in Query Builder which contains a DCount with multiple parameters and it runs as it should. I am trying to convert it to VBA, but my inability to put in the quotations marks correctly is frustrating me terribly.
Here is the SQL version from Query Builder:
UPDATE [Daily Status Update Table] SET [Daily Status Update Table].NumberOfChases = DCount("[ChaseOtherID5]","[Chases_View_ALL - TX_Mbr 9 Digit]","[ChaseOtherID5] = 'U - Initial Contact' AND [ChaseStatus] = 'A'"), [Daily Status Update Table].ChaseStatus = "A", [Daily Status Update Table].NewStatus = "A", [Daily Status Update Table].ChaseAssignment2 = "Unscheduled" WHERE ((([Daily Status Update Table].ChaseOtherID5)="U - Initial Contact"));
I am having a frustrating problem with a report filter I have been using for years. The filter works fine if the data is a number, but I am using it for text this time and it simply will not filter the report because I am unable to have the text display as per below. I need to be able to put a qutotation mark before and after the text so that the report filter will recognise and apply the filter appropriately.
I have a table in Access 2010 containing the results of a survey. One of the fields in table is the actual quotes from customers who gave direct feedback. I have created a simple report containing all of the quotes. My manager would liek them included in a summary Word doc but wants quotation marks around every quote. It's too many to manually after the report is exported to Word. Is there a way to include quotation marks around the field in the report design view?
