I am after creating a list box that will display some of the tables within my database - there are between 10 and 15 tables and the names all follow the same pattern (They all start "tblD10").
View RepliesHi all,
Please refer to the pic 'figure1' to review my question. Thanks.
I need to use a combo box to select the employee name and show the following Ref No. by using the list box. is it possible to do that? If can make it, how bout i need to delete the selected record, any idea for that? Thank you.
Hi,
I want to list all the records of a particular field from all tables in my database. The field has the same name in all the tables. Ideally I would like one long list of the records. How can I do this?
Thanks,
Richard
Very new to access, I need an easy way to compare 2 tables with a common field (the name field) and list just the records that appear in the second table but not the first (primary) table.
Please help, thanks.
As I usually concentrate on building the tables and fields in my initial stage, and do some experimenting to analyze the relationship.
However, when I'm done, I find it quite a hassle to go manually through the tables to add description to each field for documenting.
What I would like to do is create a query that will list all fields and its description. Now, I have found codes to retrieve either table or fields properties, including the description property, but am kind of stumped on how I can make it a SQL statement so I can create a temporary query, which will be pretty be one time thing, that can read all fields' description and allow me to type in it, save it.
If that's not possible, I suppose I could write code, using Allen Browne's example, that would loop through the fields' description, debugging to the immediate window and prompting me if I would like to add something to the blank description. However, this isn't exactly greatest as I need to see all fields so I can be sure I'm giving good descriptions.
I figured someone may have had this same problem and maybe came up with a solution?
Our software was purchased with a volume license, so I want to make a combo box with all of our volume license purchases and when the person selects the volume license number all of the PCs that have software purchased with that volume license are displayed.Below is my code
Private Sub cboVolumeLicensing_AfterUpdate()
'Moves to Volume Licensing field and
'finds records where "Volume Licensing" matches whatever is selected in the combo box
DoCmd.ShowAllRecords
Me!cboVolumeLicensing.SetFocus
DoCmd.FindRecord Me!cboVolumeLicensing
'Set value of combo box equal to an empty string
End Sub
The Query is Volume License Query and it is composed of Main Table and Volume Licensing Table connected by serial number on the main table and volume license on the volume licensing table..The combo box is volumeLicensing .And the form I am trying to do this in is called Volume License Form
I have a form that lists evidence items 1, 2, 3, ect....
The form is listing them 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 2, 3, 4, 5...
I have tried right clicking the evidence item # field and doing a sort a to z, and it is still listing them the wrong way.
I created a form with subforms that are all linked to their own tables. Values that are entered in to the form (i.e. just numbers or names) all save into the tables as I would expect; HOWEVER, all of my value lists (0,1,2 or 1-5) do not. I can change the values in the forms and as long as I am toggling between them they appear in the form but they are not populating the tables.
Other details. They are defined as numbers in the property table, I did change them to a value list in the form properties and did assign values to the property list.
I looked through some other threads that seemed similar but the solutions didn't apply. Because the straight up data entry saves, I feel like it is something specific to me creating those value lists...
I have three linked tables [Regulator], [RuleBook] and [Rules] (each has a corresponding form for data entry).
In the "Rules" form, when you select name of the regulator, the rule books dropdown down is filtered to show only the rulebooks for that regulator. the code I use is:
Private Sub Regulator_Change()
Me.[Rule Book].RowSource = "SELECT [ID],[Rule Book],[Short Code],[Regulator],[RegName],[Short Form],[Active] FROM" & _
" [RuleBook] WHERE Regulator = " & _
Me.Regulator
Me.[ShortReg] = Me.Regulator.Column(3)
End Sub
Basically, if I select the FSA as the regulator, The Rule Books drop down is filtered to only show the FSA Rule Books. If I pick OFT, I get the OFT list etc. This all works fine.
In the [RuleBook] table, each entry has a yes/no tick box called "Active".
The reason for this being that the regulators change their rule books quite regularly, but from an audit perspective, I can't delete or overwrite the old ones once they are no longer valid.
What I want to do, is further filter the rule book list to those where Active=True so that when I select FSA, I can only choose from their current rule books and not the ones that are no longer relevant.

Hello
I have a table with a list of lectures and the dates and times they are running. I then have a related table which lists the feedback marks and comments for each lecture. I want to enter them via a form and have set up a form with the the lectures and then a subform for entering the feedback. This all works fine. However I would like to be able to have the lectures listed by date order and wondered what the best way is to make this work so that the user can simply scroll through each lecture on the form and it automatically goes through the list by date.
I hope this is clear and thanks for any help.

Hi,
Having recently correlated the impossible pile of photos that I have on CD, including a lot of re-naming etc... I have now managed to get them down onto DVD.
I there an easy way to import a directory listing into an access database other than inputing the lot by hand? I don't wan't to add thumbnails just the file name and the directory it's in. I can embelish other details later via ASP, just need the bulk of the work done easily.
I have some experience of database design but not huge amounts of programming, other than the ASP side of things so if anyone has a complex answer please go gently with me!!!

Hello,
I currently have a DB that has a field in a table that records which shift (A, B, or C) that some data was collected on. I am trying to write a Query in order to filter the results so that either the data from shifts A,B, or C show up, or if "All Shifts" is selected, then all the data shows up. I have another table set up that records the shift selection from a form. I was trying to use an Iif statement but it does not seem to be working for the "All Shifts" option. Selecting "Shift A" or "Shift B" etc. works fine.
IIf([ShiftSelect]="All Shifts","Shift [ABC]",[ShiftSelect])
**[ShiftSelect] containts the users selection for which shift they want to view.
I have also tried this with a wildcard statement (Like "*") instead of "Shift [ABC]", to see if I could get any data to show but I still get nothing when "All Shifts" is selected!
Let me know if you can see the problem, or know another way to go about this query!
I have a Form named frmClearances that lists the name, age, Club Clearing From, Club Clearing To and the Date of Clearance... this is used for my local sporting Club.
I have created reports that separate names into "Clubs Clearing From" so that each Club is aware of who has gone. The Reports are named...
clrSportingClubName
I have searched this Forum and all over as well, including Tutorials and I cannot understand how I can make a list box that contains the names of the reports so that they can be selected individually when required for each Club.
I copied the SQL for each query and placed it in the RecordSource of each Club Report so that I did not have numerous queries.
I have even copied code from other list boxes to then changed a couple of things but that has been to no avail.
Could somebody please explain to me how I do this? Thank-you very much in advance for any assistance.
I have a report that i am trying to list in the header section, a listing of all the names for a particular field, if it is in my report. I will use these names to send the report to.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I am using 2003. On the report I have created I have this one entry that exists for all my records, it is a Name, and at the bottom of the report I am trying to create a summary that will list each of those names. I already have a count going, so I thought maybe I could tap that, but not every record has a name listed. I am farely inept at coding.
What I want is this:
(Institution 1) Accrediting Institution: ACICS
(Institution 2) Accrediting Institution: ACCST
(The part above is Done, what I need in Below)
(SUMMARY) Accrediting Institutions: ACICS, ACCST

So I have a textbox on a form that contain values. I want to convert it to a ComboBox. Since a lot of these values are the same in a lot of records (for example, "Inventor"), I want the entered values to appear in the ComboBox dropdown so they can just be selected instead of typed in. I converted the textbox to a Combobox by right-clicking on the textbox => Change To => ComboBox. It changed successfully, but I want it to list the values in the dropdown, but it doesn't.

Hello all,
I have a crazy question. Is there a way to write a query that would display data rows with common ID's as if they were columns in a query? It's for visually representing row data as if they were one record in a list. Basically, I would like to take the following data...
fldID fldDetail fldValue
1 Shape Round
1 Color Blue
2 Shape Square
2 Color Red
And display it in a recordsource like each is one record:
ID Shape Color
1 Round Blue
2 Square Red
Is there a way to do this? HTMS.
Hi,
Relevant to this query are two tables, tblNames and tblLinks.
I've been trying, with a very limited understanding, to generate a list of every tblName.Name where tblName.NameID IS NOT in tblLinks.NameID.
Is this something I can do in the query design view or do I need to work with raw SQL?
Any tips appreciated:)
My aim is to chart the career history of many people in my DB and my intention is to achieve this with two "Main" tables with many smaller tables linked to it.
Table 1 will contain the generic data about the individual, employee number, name, DOB, etc etc (there are many more fields) and Table 2 would hold their career history. Where they have worked, when, etc.
When viewing Table 1, I see all data, including a sub table showing career history, which is great. What I would like to do however, is have a query that will return all data from table 1 and Table 2 that refer to the employee number.
Attempts that I have made thus far, mean I have to enter the employee number twice (I would prefer to enter this only once) and then it gives me many pages (in report view) each page has all data from table 1, and one entry from table 2.
I would like to see all data from table 1 and then all data from table two, listed.
I am wanting to preempt data in list boxes
listbox1
Fruit
Vegetable
listbox2 (If Fruit Is Selected)
Apple
Banana
Orange
listbox2 (If Vegetable Is Selected)
Potato
Peas
Carrot
If Fruit is selected in Listbox1 - Then Listbox2 should have the options
Apple
Banana
Orange
If Vegetable is selected in Listbox1 - Then Listbox2 should have the options
Potato

I have a Form that links to a List Box which pulls from a combined (concatenated?) list. The list it is pulling from appears as follows: SELECT [Rank]+" "+[Last Name]+", "+[First Name] AS Expr1 FROM [T_Personnel Information]; My issue is that the Field in the Form that pulls from the Field in the Table defaults to the first name on the list when left blank, where as I want it to default to a blank value unless I select a name from the list.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form with 2 list boxes, part number and modification. There is a subform containing another list box that is supposed to show the part information (bpn,vendor,status,etc.) that corresponds to the selected part number/modification in the parent form list boxes.
The part info list box has multiselect enabled and what i want to is be able to select multiple line items and press a button which then sets all of the selected line items status to "Request Removal". This is my code for the button:
Private Sub removeButton_Click()
Dim varItem As Variant
With Me.acbModList
For Each varItem In .ItemsSelected
MsgBox (Me.Status.Value & Me.[Part Number].Value)
Me.Status = 6
Next
End With
End Sub
The msgbox was for debugging purposes. Here's my issue; the for each actually does iterate through each selected item but the value for the line item doesn't change along with it. For example, when I selected 3 items, the msgbox will pop up 3 times but each time will have the same information (first item in the table) even when that item isn't selected.
My next issue is that I am receiving an error message with "Me.Status = 6" stating "You cant assign a value to this object". 6 refers to the id of the status i want to set it to.
looking for a way to export the list of table names, table types & if they are linked (e.g. tbl Sales Linked .dbf or tbl Staff linked to excel) from a database - this has to be done for about 300 databases.
in an individual db, I have a make table query off of the table MSysObjects to get the data. The Database field tells me where the source of the linked table resides & the ForeignName field gives me an idea of the format of the data source (e.g. dbf or excel). I could manually import that query into each db, run it to get the table names, then copy & paste..
Hi, newbie here to this forum, been looking about for ages to try and find an access based forum.
I am not a great coder, have not really done it, nor remotely understand it, but I have still managed to write a database in access for the office.
We run a residential care home, where we had 5 databases (MS Works) which held different information of the residents within the home but duplicated name, dob, etc. I have successfully writen a access database which works well. But now I want to start pushing it a degree further if I can.
We took delivery of a HP officejet all in one printer, and it has a scanner with document feeder which we scan letters in so we can share them with head office, but what I would really like to do, is scan letters in relating to a specific client, and be able to save the file name as a link, so an other user on an other PC can open the document on their PC. Basically, I want to avoid us going to the filing cabinet to refer to a letter which was written to us.
I am using XP Home, with Office 2003 Pro, and Acrobat 8 Pro.
Any ideas where to even start looking?? I did do a search, but have no idea how to start.
Thanks in advance.
