Forms :: Linking Existing Form To New Table
May 1, 2015
Each month I receive a new excel spreadsheet (alpha Roster), Last month I created a form so that I can track certain things off of the Table (spreadsheet), I just received the new Spreadsheet for this month and was wondering if I can use the existing form and how hard it is to link it to the new spreadsheet? Is that even possible? I don't want to have to re create the form every month, I would like to just bring the new alpha roster in and be ready to work.

I have a form (frmCompany) which has two combo boxes (cmbCompany and cmbCity) which is used to add field data into a table (tblCompany). The Company field is the only required field the other is optional.
In some cases I may wish to add a City, at a later date, to an existing Company using frmCompany. I now select the company from the cmbCompany combo box then add the city to cmbCity. The problem is that when I close the form I get two companies in the table with same name, one has a city and one does not.
How can I add a new City to an existing Company, using the form, without adding a new Company?

Associated LOTO/s in tblLOTOs

However, both tables are in relationship right now..I have form called WA Switch Board where I have Datasheet View form with all WA records, fields are WA#, WAStatus, WAIssuedDate, IssuedBy, CompletionDate and etc but I have dropdown with with WAStatus with (In Field Today, On-Hold, In Approval, Cancelled, Close).Now from the main switch board when authorized people try to change the status of permit to Closed I want recordset or count to loop through tblLOTO and give me a message box if associated LOTO/s status not equal to Close.In other word, if the associated LOTO/s are not close then the selected WA # in WA Switch Board cant close.Here is the code I have been playing with no success

I'm having difficulty updating an existing record in my form. I can enter a docket number on my form and when i hit my button (Find Docket) it brings up all the customers info (name, date, invoice, vat, total, etc.) What i want to do then is be able to amend/update the record. Just wondering do i need to put vba code in my save button and how to code it and is it similar to my find data code below.
Here is my save function code:
Function SaveData() As Boolean
Dim db As Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("Skips Delivered")
[Code] .....

I'm having a bit of a problem with a database I'm trying to create, what I am trying to do is create a database to handle jobs in an IT workshop. The idea is that you generate the job card and then at the bottom you have a section to enter in the parts that are required for the job, and then have a report that prints out a list of all the parts required for all the jobs under a heading of the job card number.
The problem I am having is how to add this sub form / table to the job card sheet. I tried putting in a sub table, but that wont let me make additions to it, and I tried putting on a form but that wont retain more than one entry per job card (I have put it on continuous form).

I have read where you can drag fields onto the tab pages to create a form or you can place a subform onto a tab page, but can you drag an existing form onto a tab page?
I have done it and it is working, but I just wanted to know if this is ok to do or would it lead to problems.

Folks,
can someone help me on this? I am not sure why the select query inside this procedure is not working. Here is the that routine:
Public Sub temp()
Dim strDocName As String
Dim strTableName As String
Dim strTbl As String
Dim aot As Access.AccessObject
Dim strSQL As String
Dim rpt As Report
Set rpt = CreateReport
strTbl = Forms!frmSearchBoilerGuar!cboTypeOfGuar
For Each aot In CurrentData.AllTables
If aot.Name = "strTbl" Then
strTableName = strTbl
End If
Next aot
strSQL = "SELECT tblProjts1.chrProjectName, tblProjts1.chrBlrPropNum, " & _
"strTablename.memGuranItem , strTableName.memLDs FROM tblProjts1 " & _
"FROM tblProjts1 LEFT JOIN strTableName ON" & _
"tblProjts1.intProjectId = strTableName.intProjectId"
rpt.RecordSource = strSQL
strDocName = "rpt"
DoCmd.OpenReport strDocName, acPreview
End Sub
Basically, I am trying to select a table name from the combobox and then use that table name for my query. Then I want to use that query as a recordsource for my report.
Any help is greatly apprecited.
Shan.

I'm trying to add a combo box field to an existing table and form. I added the new field to my existing table and set it up as an combo box added my row sources. Then added the new field to an existing form and now am getting a error stating "The record source "Table name and added field here" specified on this form or report does not exist. When I just make the new field a text box instead of combo box it works just fine.

I want to open an existing record via a form and then edit that data but save the form as a new record. Basically a form used for handover/takeover process where most of the data remains the same but the new form is the basis for the next handover/takeover.

I have setup a simple access database consisting of 3 tables
Volunteer
Id (PK)
Name
Job
Id (PK)
JobName
Link
Id (PK)
VolunteerId (FK)
JobId (FK)
There is a one to many relationship between Volunteer and Link and a many to one between Link and Job
I want to create a form from which I'll select a Volunteer Name and then choose a JobName from a list box of options and have it create an entry in link with the id of the volunteer selected and the id of the job selected
So let's say there are 5 entries currently in the Job Table.. let's call the JobNames A,B,C,D and E.
In my form I select my name from the list (sourced from volunteer.Name) and then select B from the dropdown. My desired result would be a single entry gets created in Link with VolunteerId = 1 (representing me) and JobId = 2 representing the selection of B. Problem that I am having is that after I select B in the dropdown it creates a new record for B in Job and the Link table gets updated with that JobId as opposed to simply using the one that was already in the table.

Hi
I am designing a database to store volunteers and what particular function they are volunteering for. I have about 17 areas of volunteering tasks (i.e. Fundraising, Teacher) and at least 3 subcategories for those tasks (i.e. candy fundraisers, nursery school teacher). I want a form that you can enter the volunteer's info and then choose as many areas of interest and as many subcategories. I guess this would be done with checkboxes? Right now I am putting each volunteer task in seperate table (ie. Fundraising table, Teaching Table) and then trying to use combo boxes. But I want the person to be able to choose one or many activities.
Can anyone help me design this or give me a suggestion so that I can query or create a report to list the volunteer and what activities they want to volunteer for. I really appreciate any help I can get at this point. My email is ebbr820@hotmail.com or I will check back on this forum.
Thank You!

I am creating a Risk Management Database at work. I have created a tab with options to choose, as to log the risk relevant.
i.e. I have a catagory, subcatagory and then Risk boxes
When saving the record it will save the risk but it will not save the catagory, and the subcatagory options choosen? I have a seperate table for this information to appear, Does anyone know how I can make this happen without stopping it from shortening the catagories down.
I hope this make sense. I am sorry I am a little rusty in Access 2003.
Thanks,

I have a form with subform (datasheet) .
On my subform i have one field which shows the
productId ( which is filtered from combo boxes on main form) .
productId contains two columns
1 bound column(id) ( hidden with width 0 )
2 column (desription) ( shown with width 2 )
Now after entering the data when i come back to the form again . It hides the data from the productId field on subform , because data in combo box (on main form) doesn't match. Although the row is showing up , only the text in field (productId) is hidden.
Now when i change data in combo box on main form to match the ProductId , then the productId field text shows again. after changing combo box it hides . What i need is the existing data should not hide when i change the combo box selection.
see pic 1 where product matches and pic 2 where not. please note i am using master child relationship on the form/subform.

I have what should be a really simple database to build. In table tbl1PlanHdr is the header item. Many items in tbl2MaintItem will then be allocated to each header. MaintItems items will be allocated to more than one Header.
I want to set up a form that has the tbl1PlanHdr as the main part of the form and tbl2MaintItem as the subform. Possibly as a datasheet, or continuous form.
I need the ability to update items in the subform back to the orginal table.
I have a relationship of one to many from the tbl1PlanHdr to tbl2MaintItem using the primary key in tbl1PlanHdr.
But should this be a one to many from tbl2MaintItem to tbl1PlanHdr
The end result required is to be able to get a data dump of all the tbl1PlanHdr items with the corresponding tbl2MaintItems items.

Hi Team,
I want to create a form which will act as an outage tracker. I will be having 2 kinds of tables.
1. Type of leave
2. Headcount with employee schedules
3. Goals for outage
Please find the scenarios
1. In the front end as soon as the Team Manager selects his or her name the next combo box should show the names of his agents.
2. Once the user selects the date of leave, if the leave is being marked 48hrs in prior and the total outage is less than the goal then it should show the planned leaves options as per the leaves saved in the "Type of leaves" table or else a message box should pop-up stating the reason for not showing planned leaves options.
3. Also the form should show the %outage marked on the tool for the week.
Need your help as I am pretty new with access.
Regards,
Malay

-Microsoft Access 2010
-Existing Access Database contains tables with 1-2 million records
I would like to add a field[dol] to an existing table[rei]. I need this new field[rei].[dol] to be populated with existing data from another table[main] based on the associated field[main].[account1] or [main].[account2] or [main].[account3].
Table1[main]
...account1
...account2
...account3
...dol
[code]...
In the [main] table. There is always data in [dol]. But there is NOT always data in the [account] fields. Sometimes there is multiple account numbers per [dol] but not always.
Customers will ALWAYS have at least 1 [account] number and [dol]. Some will have multiple [account] numbers and [dol]. Sometimes these [account] numbers are the same in multiple fields[account1] [account2] [account3].I just need to do a lookup or something to find the [account#] and pull in its [dol] from the [main] table and populate it in [rei].[dol].

Hi Guys,
Haven't done anything with Access since I finished uni and I can't remember much. I'm trying to set up a simple database with customer recording and order taking functionality. Just in the very early stages trying to get basic things working.
I have a form where you enter customer details..at the bottom there is a command button named "Place Order", which will be clicked to go to the order form for that customer. Attachement shows very simplified version of the order form. I need to enter a Product ID, and have the Product Name automatically extracted from the Products table.
How can I do this? I would have done a search...but not even sure what this process is called in Access.
Thanks for any help.
