Forms :: Limit Number Of Rows In A Subform
Jun 20, 2013
I am looking for a way to limit the number of rows that are added to the subform of a main form. Is there anyway that the allowable number of rows be defined using a field on the main form.

I am currently trying to figure out how to limit the entries into a nested sub form to just one.
for example im making wine collection database, I have a PURCHASE table, a WINE table containing the FK of the PURCHASE PK, and an INVENTORY contain the FK of the WINE PK.
a purchase can contain many wines, but one wine can only be in one inventory location.
I am trying to add all this information with one form. I fill out the purchase details, enter the info of X bottles of wine were in the purchase, and then with one of those wines selected in their subform, i enter the inventory details for that wine. I go select the next wine in the first subform and the inventory nested subform doesnt allow another entry.
I have this code loaded into the On Current event for the main form:
Private Sub Form_Current()
With Me![INVENTORY Subform].Form
If .Recordset.RecordCount = 0 Then
.AllowAdditions = True
[Code] ....

I am new to Access and I am developing a form. I have already read and found useful resources on internet but there is something I am not able to sort out.I have seen that the limit of fields I can enter in Access is 255 and my survey is far below that number.So no issue at all when I created the fields in Data view.However, the issues started when I created a form.
I created a form by Create>Form.The last few fields, at the very bottom of the form, are squeezed onto each other as if there was not any space available. Is there a limit to the number of fields I can have in a form? There should not be if I am allowed to enter up to 255 fields. How can I go about it? Should I alternatively create 2 forms? I would rather not to though.

Ok, not sure if this is even possible or where to even start..
I've got a form that has all the info for a client, eg..
Client First Name
Client Last Name
Client Hours
Client WE/CS/EE
Client Day And Times
Client Phone
Client Comments
Begin Date & End Date (2 boxs) on there for date input..
and what i'm trying to do is limit that any date entered between begin date and end date, it'll check and make sure there is only ever 20 clients on any 1 day..
i thought Datediff would be the way to go, but then again how do you get it to search each day and make sure theres only 20 clients on there..

Is it possible (without using VB) to limit the number of selections a user can make in a multiple value list?
My list is one a form and when in the form field it brings up a total of 15 names with checkboxes, allowing you to "check" each name you want. However, I want to be able to have as many names as I need in the list, but limit the user to selecting only two of them.

I have a database that has transactions since year 2009. I want the users to only be able to view and edit transactions that were entered in the last 6 days. I was initially able to do this by putting a filter in the Property Sheet section of the form and choosing Yes for Filter on Load.
However, a user was able to discover that by clicking on Clear All Filters, the filter I set was also cleared, thus making them see all the transactions beginning year 2009.

Subform is a Continuous form.
Enter Payroll via Subform
Via Combo, select a Employee on Subform
Enter Hours
Finish,Select a New Employee
Using CarryOver for Employee
Problem: Can't add new Record for a new Employee.Because of the Limit Records Code.?

My problem is the following: when I receive say 5 computers in a purchase form, I want to register the serial number of each of them in another form, bound to another table.If I receive 2 units in the purchase form, my user should only be able to input 2 records in the serial form (a continuous form), if we receive 3, then only 3 records,I cannot quite figure out how to build this second (serial number registration form), so that it refuses input after the correct number has been reached.

I have a form I created in the past that auto-fills some of its fields based on the user's selection of a record from a combo box linked to another table. The form has been working perfectly however I recently tried to add a couple of more fields to the form that need to be autofilled. I added the new fields to the source table and added columns to the combobox that should allow my VB code to fill those boxes. However only one of the new fields is filling correctly. After trying a few different things I notice that the problem seems to be with whatever data field becomes the 21st column in the combobox. Is there some sort of limit on the number of columns contained in the data source for such a box?
Option Compare Database
Private Sub EmpIDAutofill_Change()
Me.EmployerCatAutofill.Value = Me.EmpIDAutofill.Column(1)
Me.StreetNumAutofill.Value = Me.EmpIDAutofill.Column(2)
Me.JobCityAutofill.Value = Me.EmpIDAutofill.Column(3)
[code]...

I have a report which runs from a linked excel worksheet. Is there any way I can limit the number of rows in the access reports to only show those rows which are populated in the excel worksheet.
Presently, if the excel worksheet has information in say 20 rows, when I come to print the access report it is telling me there are 1067 records and the only way I can print is by selecting pages 1 & 2 of the report to print.

So I have a master form, with multiple subforms on different tabs within the master form. This form is not used to look up data, just to only enter data in. In one of the tabs, I have a subform in the form of a data table where the person filling it in can put multiple locations of one dealership. In the next tab, I want these loctions to autofill into the next subform on the second tab in the data sheet. If I were to go with the solution of using an unbound textbox on the parent/master form to refernece the first subform and then have the second subform reference the textbox, how would I go about doing this? Just with the expression builder and conrol source? Am I able to autofill multiple rows of data from one subform to the other for one recond?

I have an Access2007/SQL Server 2012 system with 20 users for an insurance company. The company does most of its business via a network of vehicle dealers around the country. If someone comes in to buy a motorcycle, boat, or recreational vehicle at a dealership they need insurance to take it home, and our dealers send the quotes to us.
The dealers, in turn, receive payment from us each month for their efforts. Some are paid a % commission on the premium, some are paid for each quote they send regardless of whether the policy actually sells or not, and some are paid a set amount per sold policy. (Yes, that is relevant information!)
We already have reports that tally the amounts due each dealer based on their payment scheme, but last month our bookkeeper had to write about 650 checks manually because the check writing is not automated. She'd look at the report, and then enter name, address, and amount (in digits and words) into Quick Books and print the checks from there, a horribly tedious process. I've been asked to print the checks from Access. Basically one click would print all 650 checks.
I've opted to use a Make Table query to move the commissioned dealers amounts to a single location, and then to run two append queries to add the records from those paid per quote and those paid per policy. At the end of the day, one table contains all the information necessary to print the checks...except one.
The check number.
I need a way to sequentially number each record in the new table with a user generated starting point, the first check number.
By the way, the check blanks are on standard letter sized paper, three to a page, with tear-off perforations to separate them, in case that information has any relevance.
I think the best way to accomplish this is from the report itself. I've created a blank field on each record for the check number, and what seems most logical is that the sequential number is generated on print and written back to the table, rather than just generating all the numbers at once. That way, should print ever be interrupted, it will be easy to take up where we left off.

I have a form where we fill in information for supply of equipment to employees.
Each item must be signed for on a printed report.
I am encountering problems trying to create enough rows in my report detail for each signature of the items supplied.
For example, on the form I will select the "equipment" - 4 hats supplied and 3 boots. On the report I want the equipment set as the group and the detail to be a number or rows which equals the number of selected items. therefore under the Hats group heading I want 4 blank rows which are made up of 3 text boxes - Print Name, Signature & Date and another group heading for boots but with 3 lines.

I didn't know that Access is supposed to only have 2 subform deep. On my form, I have three subform deep. However, the master form is unbound, not linked to subforms, and nothing more than a container for tab pages which contains their own subforms and has no code directly associated with data. There is a code to move subform to new record when tabs changes, but that's all.
Does that mean there is really only two subforms deep from the topmost form on the tab page or the subform depth has been exceeded whether the master form has no role in data transaction?

Hi,
I have searched for an answer to this question a lot, but I could not find it. I hope anyone can help me with the following:
I need to do a database in MS Access; however, there is so much information and some of it is not related. After normalising it, it looks like I need a number of tables. Is there a limit to how many tables you can have on Access? And how many tables is the recommended size?
Any help will be very much appreciated.

Is there a limit on the number of records you can have in an access database? I've got one with 8500 records and it's been a PITA! I have a webpage on our intranet so users can go and enter their information to it, and they get a nasty error whenever they try to enter information. I'm trying to figure out why and i was just wondering... i know it's not the webpage because when i connect it to my test database it works fine? so i dunno :confused:
any help is greatly appreciated!!

Hi All.
Is it possible to limit the number of records in a form, to a number given in a linked form.
For Example.
tblA
StreetName
No_Of_Houses
tblB
Name
Number
I would only want the number of records in tblB to be the same as No_Of_Houses in tblA.
I have seen previous threads where you can limit it to a number, but do not know where to go from there.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.
Frank.

I am designing a database for a marketing company. One of my tables has all of the company's contacts. On the contacts form, I have a button that opens up a query that shows the information for the company that contact works for. I have a problem where if I have more than one contact per company, it will return that many results (which is just a repeated list of the same company information). It is an eyesore to look at the same information in two or more rows, so I was wondering, can I make the query return only one result? I've been looking online, and I haven't found this at all. Thanks a lot.

HeyI'm trying to create a Library database. This involves restricting the number of loans available to each member (currently 3). I need to make it so no more than 3 records exist in that table for each member. For now ive just entered a VB script that has a message box saying not to enter more than 3 loans per person but I dont think thatll be enough, I need some sort of validation for the whole table rather than a field.I know how to limit the returns of sql queries which is all I can find, but not how to limit the actual amount of entries. The loan table is part of a double query within a subform of the member form if it helps :s

Hi guys,
I have a text box, which requires a 8-digit number entry. I have wrote the code to check that the length is 8 and if it isn't a label will turn visible next to the field telling the user entry must be 8 digits.
This works for when i enter a number less than 8-digits but when i input a number with more digits as it does not fit into the text box it turns it to a scientific format value and when the code runs it shows the length is actually 8! And therefore the entry is valid!
I.e. when i input 123456789 the text box shows 1.23E+08 which is 8 charecters!
I dont want any error messages to pop up as i handle them by code and use labels to show the error message next to the problem field and i would like to keep this consistent. Is there any way i can do this by a function or a property in the table or form?
I appreciate any help/advice
cheers
