Forms :: How To Delete Transfer And Associated Tools Records
Sep 7, 2013
I am building a tool rental data base.I have places a delete button on my Transfer form so the operator can erase any mistake that he/she just made on a Transfer ticket.When I push the button I get an error message saying that I can't delete the record because it is associated with 2 tables. I have one table the tracks the transfer and another that tracks the tools associated with the transfer.How can I delete the transfer and the associated tools records?
I wanted a Switchboard page in Access to open automatically when the database was opened. I've done that but, as I did it, while in the Tools/Startup to set Display Form Page (in this case a switchboard page but it's not opening full screen and I ow have no way of editing anything), I stupidly de-selected the options there... Display database window, Display status bar, Allow built in tool bars allow toolbar/menu changes.
Now I have lost the tools Menu, the View Menu and others (where one sees, File, View etc at the top of the window) and I can't work out how to get them out. I can no longer view my Access pages in Design View so I can't amend the any pages.
Can anyone tell me how to get my View and Tools menus back on my Access app window?? It's a bit of an emergency... been up all night and have to hand this in as coursework at uni in about 3 hours and I've screwed up right at the end and can't do the last couple of things before putting it on a CD for my tutor to mark.
Help!
I'd also like to know how to get it to open the first form at full screen.
I have an Equipment Form with a Supplier subform. The Supplier subform also has a subform, Equipment Pricing Records.
I have the ability to change the Supplier via a combo box, but Equipment Pricing Records become orphaned.
What I would like to do is when a Supplier is about to be changed, for the user to have the option to either a) delete the sub records, or b) the sub records to move across to the new Supplier.
I know I will need to use the after update event once the delete or move decision is made, but I can�t think how to identify the records and then either delete or move them to the new Supplier ID.
The EquipmentID will never change.
Fields are;
EQUIPMENT form; EquipmentID
SUPPLIER form; SupplierID EquipmentIDFK
PRICING RECORD form; PricingRecordID SupplierIDFK EquipmentIDFK
I have a columnar form with a sub-form based on an updatable query. I've created a delete button on the master form with the intention that if the user hits the delete button, it will delete the current record (like its supposed to, right?).
But what is happening is when the delete button is hit, it is asking twice for deletion confirmation and deleting the current record AND the next record. Even if I hit "Cancel" to stop the deletion, it still deletes the current and next records.
Each record has a primary unique ID that is included on the form (but not tab stopped - if that makes any difference), but it doesn't seem to be using that as the basis for deleting.
I've tried two different codes for this:
Private Sub Command110_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Command110_Click DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord Exit_Command110_Click:
I have a form Delete which contains four fields i.e. Date, City, Depots and Vendor, which has combobox.
I am trying to delete a record from table "Sheet1" based on the combobox, for which i have written the following code, but getting an error at the lines highlighted in red :
Private Sub Command30_Click() On Error GoTo Err_delete_Click Dim stDocName As String Dim intResponse As Integer intResponse = MsgBox("Are you sure you want to delete this record?", vbYesNo + vbExclamation, "Cash Management Team") Select Case intResponse Case vbYes CurrentDb.Execute _
I have a form to enter archaeological features in a feature table. Each feature is present in one or more archaeological strata, for which I have a stratum table. There are 41 strata in total named 1A, 1B, 2A etc. On the form I want a checkbox for each of these and then to make it add a record to the stratum table for each of the selected strata. The stratum table and feature table are connected by the feature_primary_ID (key in feature table), so when making a new record I need this primary ID and the respective strata to be entered in the fields.
At the moment I've got something like this:
Code: Private Sub Check1_Click() If Check1.Value = True Then DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO tbl_FEAT_STRAT (feature_primary_ID, stratum_ID) VALUES ((feature_primary_ID of present record),Label2.Caption)" Else DoCmd.RunSQL "DELETE FROM tbl_FEAT_STRAT WHERE feature_primary_ID = (feature_primary_ID of present record)" End If End Sub
For starters, I dont know how to get the feature_primary_ID from the features table (also represented in the form as a field) and use it to make a new record in the strata table.
Second, when using this code I need a copy for each of the 41 strata checkboxes. Creating lots of redundant code. Easier would be a generic code that loops through all the checkboxes after they've been checked and then add new records for each of the checked boxes. Tried something with a command button, but couldn't get it to work.
I am trying to create a command button that will delete the current records in both the subform and main form.
I know how to create a command button that will delete the current record of which ever form I'm in (either the sub or main form) but I wish to do so both at the same time with one event procedure. I currently have been experimenting with a button in the subform but I don't really care if it's in the subform or main form.
I have a form to add, edit, and delete Records from a table. I am using the following VBA
Private Sub cmdEdit_Click() If Not (Me.frmlEmpDetailsSub.Form.Recordset.EOF And Me.frmlEmpDetailsSub.Form.Recordset.BOF) Then With Me.frmlEmpDetailsSub.Form.Recordset Me.txtAddEditname = .Fields("Name") Me.cboRoster = .Fields("Roster") Me.cboPermFctn = .Fields("PermFctn") End With End If End Sub
Instead of referring to the Subform to load the data i would like to refer to a combobox:
cboSearchName
Its not an issue but This Combobox contains 5 columns...
I have a parent form and connected to it is a subform. On the parent form I have a checkbox which enables and disables fields on the parent form and also hides the subform.
What I want to do is when the user unchecks the checkbox, this action also deletes the associated subform records, if there are any.I'm sure that this can be done with an SQL Delete query in VBA.
I work in a hospital where each ward has its own identical but UNLINKED staff database. I wanted to make a single database but the management was adamant that for confidentiality they should each be standalone. I lost this argument!
Data is stored in 7 tables: Identity, annual leave, sick leave, qualifications, etc.
Too late, someone has realised that staff may transfer from one ward to another, so the whole record needs to be transferred. What's the best way to do this?
So far the process I have come up with is: Choose the person you wish to export from the source database Run 7 queries to export the records from the various tables e.g. to Excel Create linked tables in the target database to pick up these records Run import queries.
I set up a macro to run the 7 export queries, using the "OutputTo" action and specifying .xls for the output format. But the files created don't appear to be readable by Access. In Explorer, they only have the Windows icon and are just "files".
Does anyone know a better way to tackle this problem?
ok, basically our website will input form details directly into a database. this database will be held online obviously..
once the details are inside, how easy will it be to transfer a record into a table of another database.. (our main database.. which is offline for security purposes).
im assuming it wont be too hard.. both access versions are the same.. and they can both be open at once.. etc..
Dim dbs As DAO.Database, sql As String, rCount As Integer Set dbs = CurrentDb sql = "DELETE * dbo_InvPrice Inner Join (dbo_InvPrice Inner Join UpdatedPricing on dbo_InvPrice.StockCode = UpdatedPricing.StockCode ) ON on dbo_INvPrice.PriceCode = UpdatedPricing.PriceCode " dbs.Execute sql, dbFailOnError
I have a form "article" with a button "place an order". Click on the button opens another form ("order") where I should fill the order for the current article.
The problem : how can I tell to "order" form that I want to order the article I was on in my "article" form, and not another one ?
I want to find duplicate records based on FirstName and LastName and delete the duplicate. Also, I want to delete any records which have a blank FirstName and LastName.
I was just editing my Access database (stored on the intranet) when a message popped up saying "Disk or network error".
I clicked the only option ("ok") and closed the DB. When I reopened it, it said someone else was viewing it and I only had read permissions. I close it again, and see that in the directory where my .mdb file is stored I have the .ldb file remaining even though it isn't open.
I restart my machine, and try and open it again. I have to compact and repair the DB at Access' suggestion, yet now I only seem to have limited functionality....??
I.e. there is no Tools menu, I can't right click on forms or tables to choose Design View (although if I highlight them in the database pane and click the BUTTON for Design View I am able to proceed)....
What's going on?!!
I've tried going to File > Open and in the little arrow on the Open button choosing "Open Exclusive", but it opens and does the same thing as above...!!
I've checked a different database in Access, and I don't seem to have gone potty, in every other one I'm able to see the Tools menu, etc...?
Anyone got any clues as to how I can get my lovely database back on its feet and functioning properly? :confused: :eek: :rolleyes: :mad:
I have made a critical error with my system, in tools on startup i unticked all the boxes, and now when it loads it brings up the system only and not the design view tables etc,
I have a form which contains a subform. On this subform, the user will enter several lines of container ID numbers. If one of these containers has errors, they check a yes/no box and a pop up form opens for them to enter the details of the errors.
I want two fields that are populated on the subform to transfer information to the corresponding two fields on the pop up form. This works when only one container ID has been added to the subform. However, when there are multiple containers in the subform and the container with the errors happens to be the second or third record on the subform, the pop up form always transfers the information from the first record to those fields.
I also have the subform requerying when the check box is checked so that the information saves to the table and the focus does stay on the correct record but the pop up form still opens with the wrong information.
how to transfer the information from the record that the user is currently on?
In my form my combo box displays a list from a query called DORP-HDR that has 3 columns
DORP-ID | CODE | NAME
and displays them like that is the drop down list
The form field that the combo is bound to takes the numeric-id field as its value. In the combo control wizard i nominated that value, and in the properties pane bound column value is 1.
and in the properties pane the row source is:
SELECT [DORP HDR].[DORP-ID], [DORP HDR].[CODE], [DORP HDR].[NAME] FROM [DORP HDR] ORDER BY [NAME];
So far so good. I have created lots of combo boxes before like this.
But this time i want the second field in the list (CODE) ALSO bound to another field in my form . So I want the combo to transfer two values not one. How do i do this?
*Can anyone tell me if or how to reffer to the options from Tools-->Startup in VBA code? I`m asking that because i want to open a database in different ways taking in account the logged user. *And another question: in access 2000 is possible to make .mde files? Because the option is dissabled in tools--> database utilities menu.
Although I have been using access for a year or two (self taught) I have only recently noticed that the form toolbox (the one with combo boxes and buttons etc on it) appears to have a library of procedure calls for calendars and all sorts of things sitting there waiting to be used. Is there a list somewhere of what all this lot does? I have been playing with a couple of date pickers but I don't particularly want to go through all of the rest to see what they do or if they would be useful.
Any way to transfer the data in an unbound textbox into a separate table.
User enters an amount into a textbox2, and then it does some calculations that involves textbox1 and textbox2. Finally, textbox3 has the final answer. Can textbox3 overwrite textbox1's data on the table and on the form?
Also, is there an "auto date" feature in tables? If new data is put into tables, Today's date appears on the date column?
Could someone please give me a link or place to find a descreption of all the "More Tools" that you can use when building a form. If I had a list I could pick what is best for my database and explain things better to management...thanks.
