I'm creating a new database that will require a form to fill in creating new records in different tables.
Am I able to have one form that will input the record to the relevant table, given one combo box?
I have created a simple database, with 2 x tables. The first is a 'Week Ending' table, with a dateid key and Week Ending field. I have created several week-ending dates in order for a user to input details of work done the previous week. The second table contains the details of the work.
I have a one to many relationship between the dateid in the first table, and a dateid of the work details table.
I created a query based on the work details table, and created a subform from that. In a main form I linked a combo box to allow a user to select a date and the relevant work details appear in the subform. However the Week Ending field only shows one date, not a list of the dates I created.
I have a table with 2 fields in it - Type and Pallet_Case - using a form the user enters the name of the Type and then from a combo box selects either Pallet or Case. There is a button on the form that is to save the new record to the table. (code below) The strangeness that is happening is that when the new record is added to the table, whatever is the first existing record alphabetically in the table is changed to the same Pallet_Case selection that was made for the new record.
I have a list box that displays on the form that is updated after a new record is added to show what records exist in the table (this is done by a query of the table and sorts on the type), so I can see this happening without having to open the table. It doesn't matter what sort order I put the list box in nor the table it still changes the first record alphabetically. And it is only change the Pallet-Case field. I even changed the first record to something else and it still did this.
Dim dbs As DAO.Database, strSql As String
Set dbs = CurrentDb
strSql = "Insert into [PP Type TBL] ([Prepack Type],[Pallet Case]) Values ('" & Me.Type & "','" & Me.Pallet_Case & "' )"
dbs.Execute strSql, dbFailOnError
I'm trying to build a search form.- Access 2007
I have a table (Table1), contains a 'part' field.
I wan to build a form with a blank text box (txtbx1) where users can enter a part description, this will search records in Table1>part and return a list of parts that match the textbox input.
Here's what I've done -
txtbx1 - property sheet - control source - part
event - on enter - ...
I've built an expression -
[Table1]![part] = [txtbx1]
hoping that this would match records 1n Table1 to txtbx1
Hey guys, I'm not sure if this is possible, and it is the most challenging thing that I have tried to implement into my database to date.
What I have is a booking form which allows you to Add Bookings for camera kits.
When a customer comes in and would like to book a kit, the form must be filled in with the relevant details, I have 2 combo boxes on this form.
The first is the Kit selection, there are 5 camera kits.
The second is an option to book the full kit out, or just components.
So here's the tricky part...
When the first combo box selection is made (eg. Kit 3) I need the Kit3 table to be active.
Then, when the user selects "Components" from the second combo box, I need a form to open up based on both of the above.
So a form based on tblKit3 would be opened and the user can manually select the components that they require to be booked out.
Any help at all would be appreciated.
I'm struggling to produce a report that pulls out pre defined fields from the active record displayed on a form and attach / embed to an email.
View 1 Replies View RelatedOn a form to enter some new client info, I want users to be able to select their UserID from a combo box for future reference to other users (ie; Who made these notes?). For various reasons I want them to be able to add their UserID to the combo list for future selection if its not already on there.
There is a table set up for users, simply called tblUsers, with a single field, UserID. A query from this sorts the list alphabetically, and the combo uses this query to populate its list - qryUserID.
Users can currently select from a list or write their own UserID in the box, however when they write their own ID it doesn't get saved.
I don't need any message boxes or checking, just add it and move on kind of thing. It doesn't need to refresh the list immediately, as the user moves on swiftly once completing 2 more fields.
I have a form that functions as information display/update for a table. It also needs to display a list of relevant codes from another table. The codes in the second table have an ID that will match an ID field on the main table. However when I do this I either get every code in the code table, or nothing.
Here is the SQL that I'm trying to use:
SELECT table_code_lookup.code_text, table_codes.code_extra, table_codes.alum_id, table_codes.ID
FROM (table_code_lookup INNER JOIN table_codes ON table_code_lookup.code_id=table_codes.code_num) INNER JOIN table_alumni ON table_codes.alum_id=table_alumni.ID
WHERE (((table_codes.alum_id)=me.id));
However anything I can think of putting for me.id doesn't work. I've written a sub that will modify the query and insert the correct ID num, but I can't figure out how to get it to run when I change records with the record selector.
I have the nagging feeling that I'm missing something totally simple, but can't figure out what it is, where am I going wrong?
I have been able to successfully solve the problem of my pages showing relevant records by using form control.
How should I make my form display a new record everytime I open it? So, that when a lame user opens it , he wouldnt change the existing data on an existing record. How to solve this problem?
Kindly help. thanks
I have a AUCTION form, it has a combo box and the label for this combo box is called seller. This combo box is a look up to the USER table which has the following fields:
uid, uname, city, state
The combo box is pulling and displaying a drop down list of uname from the USER table, with this SQL state in the "row source".
Code:
SELECT user.uname FROM [user] ORDER BY user.uname;
In the control source of this combo box I have seller, and the form's record source is AUCTION, tagging on the AUCTION table.
The problem is the form is putting the uname into the AUCTION table's seller field, but I want it to input the uid field, however that it should still show the uname list when the user click on the combo box to make a selection.
I am using Access 2007 and have reviewed many blogs and looked at the Northwind db to try to solve this problem. I would like to create a form that functions in the same manner as the "Order Details" form in the Northwind db. Specifically, I want to create a form that will allow me to input a value and have the form get data from another table and populate the table I need populated.
I would like to populate a table "Outside", field names are Key, Name, term, Value, Date.
The table that contains the data is named "CV" and the filed names are Key, Name.
In the form, I would like to enter a value for Key into a combo box, and have it put the value for Key and for Name into the form, and allow me to enter whatever I want to in the Term, Value and Date field. When I tab out, I would like all this data to be in the table "Outside.
I want to add a combo box to a form, where depending on the values entered in the box another combo box would show more values. In other words, if the first combobox had choices of 1, 2, 3 and 4, if 1 was selected the next combo box would have values a, b, c and d. If 2 was selected, it would have values of a, d, e, f and g.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I learnt to use vba in excel (to basic level) I was always advised in a userform to validate data at end of record input i.e. when pressing enter and next. Is this true also with access or should i be putting validation rules at the afterupdate stage of a particular control?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe store data for clients which can be found online. Our current method of getting the data so we can analyze it is to copy a table found online and pasting it into excel.
What we want to do is to copy that data into an access table. This equates to inputting multiple records at the same time. There are 5 columns and around 20 rows (records) pasted at the same time. I want to do this in Access, through a form which would them store that data in the appropriate table.
I assume there is an ActiveX control out there which can put a spreadsheet in an access form. Then i could maybe write a VBA procedure to input the data into a table.
I would like to know what the best way to input a duplicate record is with the exception of 1 field that is used to correspond with the proper parent of the record?
Here is an example of the problem, We receive a letter with pertinent information that corresponds to 30 of our facilities. I would need to enter this 30 times so that when the users of this information run their reports for their facility I can ensure that the letter would be referenced.
How to limit input data on the same month for each patient? The field is a data/text box on a subform
I found this code on Form Current Event!:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Current() Dim intMaxNumRecs as Integer
intMaxNumRecs = 5 'Max Number of Records to Allow
If Me.NewRecord Then With Me.RecordsetClone
If .RecordCount > 0 Then .MoveLast: .MoveFirst
If .RecordCount >= intMaxNumRecs Then
MsgBox "Can't add more than " & intMaxNumRecs & " records in the demo database!" .MoveLast Me.Bookmark = .Bookmark
End If End If End With End If End Sub
But I want a monthly limit...

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form that currently uses a "catch all" table for listing available equipment to choose from for an equipment field. I call it tblEquipment. What I want to do is to make it so when I type a name in (1 of 35) in one field of the current record, the record source for the equipment field immediately looks at a different table that has equipment available only for that name. To do this I plan on making 35 different tables with limited data originally found in tblEquipment. I would call these tblEquipment1, tblEquipment2, etc. I do not use a sub form, nor do I want to.
So my questions are:
1) can this be done
2)If it can be done, how can I do it?

I need saving 2 input fields into a table. Here is the situation
tableA
studentID
Name
tableB
studentID
Name
Course
Fee
I have a form with a drop down list, to select studentID from tableA. I selected a dropdown from studentID to display Name, and that I tied to txtName
I then type in txtCourse and txtFee whatever value I want, example:
txtCourse = English
txtFee = 50.00
Now, I'm able to transfer studentID and Name from tableA and save to tableB, and delete the record I just selected in tableA.
The issue is, I can't save the txtCourse, txtFee as I don't know how.
Here is what I have
Private Sub Insert_Click()
Dim strSQL As String
strSQL = "INSERT INTO tableB SELECT studentID, Name FROM tableA WHERE studentID = '" & txtstudentID & "'"
CurrentDb.Execute strSQL
strSQL = "DELETE FROM tableA WHERE studentID = '" & txtstudentID & "'"
CurrentDb.Execute strSQL
End Sub
I'm stuck on how to save txtCourse and txtFee into tableB where I have Course and Fee fields.
I have a table that has fields for number input
On my form I have in a TAB form 3 fields to input a figure, in the table these are set up as a Text NOT a Number. If i set it as a Number it keeps rounding up? even after i enforce 2 decimal places it still keeps rounding up.
Field 1 - 42988.62
Field 2 - 0.00
Field 3 - -14330.84
I then created a unbound txtbox so I can add these up
=[ResBF]+[ResRefReC]+[ResSurDef]
what i get in return is this :- 42988.620.00-14330.84
I also tried =Sum([ResBF]+[ResRefReC]+[ResSurDef])
and that just comes up with #Error
I even tried in the table directly to have a calculated field and still having the same problems.
I have a TABLE with the following data:
- EMPID
- LASTNAME
I have a form with the folliwing data:
- text box for user to enter EMPID, txtEMPID
- LASTNAME
I would like to create a button to initiate a query to do the following:
- once the user enters a EMPID in the form, it will search in the TABLE under the EMPID field...
- if the user enters an EMPID that is in the TABLE...display "Y"
- if the user enters an EMPID that is NOT in the table...display "N"
- a error message box needs to pop up if "Y" to alert the user that "the EMPID already exists and that duplicate entries are not allowed"
One of my main questions is how do I run a query based on the users input and search a table? would the following work in the query?
I have a form that has a button that calls the following code:
Sub ClosePO_Click()
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim mvalue As String, strSql as string
Set db = CurrentDb
mvalue = Me.Combo73 'combo box on OpenPO Form
strSql = "UPDATE Print SET OpenPO = NO where [GPO Invoice Number] = '" & mvalue & "'"
Debug.Print strSql
db.Execute dbFailOnError
db.Close
Set db = Nothing
End Sub
When I run (or step through the code, I get the Run-Time Error 3078 ... database cannot find the input table.However, when I copy the debug.print output in the immmediate window and paste into the query builder, the query runs. Here is an example of the debug.print output:
UPDATE [Print] set OpenPO = NO where [GPO Invoice Number] = '40333'
where OpenPO is a yes/no field and [GPO Invoice Number] is a string
Ok my problem is this......
I have a form with a field "Property Status" on it. It has 4 possible values -
"C - SHELTERED (with warden charge)";"H - SHELTERED (No warden charge)";"J - WHEELCHAIR SHELTERED (With warden charge)";"M - WHEELCHAIR SHELTERED (No warden charge)";"X - DISCONNECTED"
When the value "X - DISCONNECTED" is selected in the form I want the record to be removed from its existing table and sent to a new table which keeps all the "X - DISCONNECTED" records together.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. How would this be coded?
