I'm quite new to using Access 2007 and I'm trying to create a form from different tables which have relationships. I've used the form wizard and added all the fields I need from the different tables, however, when I click form view it only shows the title and nothing else. When I'm in design view everything is showing..
View RepliesI have a list of people in a list box. In the list box I only have the people names listed. (example below)
1. John
2. Frank
3. Tim
4. Jessica
I want to click on one of the names and have a form pop up on the same screen that lists the persons contact info. If I had a table like listed below, could the info auto populate on a separate form.
[ID] [Name] [Number] [Address]
1. John 456-4567 123 Elm Rd.
2.
I want the Form to pop up and show...
Name: John
Number: 456-4567
Address: 123 Elm Rd.
I am very new to access and I am trying to create two tables called Customers and Orders.
The fields in Customers are:
CustomerID (Primary Key), First Name, Last Name, Address.
The fields in Orders are:
Order# (Primary Key), CustomerID, Product Purchased, Address.
There is a One to many relationship between CustomerID in the table Customers, to the CustomerID in Orders.
The problem I am having now is with the Address field.
GOAL: What I am trying to do is have the Orders table automatically get the Address from the Customers Table.
If that doesnt make sense, whenever I create a new Order, I want to enter the customerID, and have it get the Address data from the Customers table automatically put into the proper field in the Orders table.
Hello,
I am starting to get further into access development, originally i started from a sample database and have been teaching myself as i go along. This database has come pretty far and the farther it comes along the more my company demands of me from it!
either way, it is basically a database that holds all of our asset information, equipment parts, workorders and preventative maintenance. We've been plugging along just fine but I want to help their productivity and have access automatically create "Equipment ID"'s from information that is entered by the person adding an asset. I would like it to create an ID from Entry of the Department, Location, and then a 4 digit Autonumber after that.
Basically we have a few basic departments, IT, Facilities, etc. and a few locations... So we have been setting our equipment ID's like this:
AA - Two characters for the Location
BB - Two characters for the department
0000 - numbered field
So I really would like to be able to create these automatically instead of manually typing them in to a text field with an input mask.
AABB-0000 to automatically create entries from the departmental info, location info and then automatically create a 4 digit number in order to follow it.
What is the best way to do this? Keep in mind I am just barely able to do any code, I only have been going from what i see in the database and building upon it and learning a few bits and pieces of code from there. So if you start going into a code explaination go slow~!
Thanks,
Jim
I have a [New Job Number] form in my database. In this [New Job Number] form, I have a [Purchase Orders] subform showing all open Purchase Orders. I have a button in the [New Job Number] form to open another form called [New Purchase Order]. How can I transfer all of that information from [New Job Number] into the [New Purchase Order] form through a macro? I don't know how to use VBA. Also I do know how to use basic Macros, though.
The fields I would like to transfer from [New Job Number] into [New Purchase Order] are JobName, JobNumber, and CustomerAccountNumber.
I am trying to create a form where I store the literacy and numeracy results of a group of students. So far I have designed a form which gives me a tick box as to whether the test they took was literacy or numeracy, then a box where I enter the score. Literacy tests are scored out of 72 and numeracy out of 50.
what I would like to do is write something that shows the literacy numeracy levels of each student after each test. So for literacy, the score ranges are as follows:
0 - 13 Below Entry 1
14 - 32 Entry 1
33 - 52 Entry 2
53 - 65 Entry 3
66 - 7 Level 1
What I would like to be able to do is tick whether or not they sat a literacy or numeracy test, enter the score and the db to come up with their level and display it on the form.
In the code below I am creating a record with the INSET INTO statement and then Updating with additional info in various fields. it is not working the way I thought it would, so I am trying to create the record in it's entirety.
Code:
SQL_Grade_GUSD_ID = "INSERT INTO Grades (GUSD_Student_ID) VALUES (" & Me.GUSD_Student_ID & ")"
SQLM1_1_ELA = "UPDATE Grades SET Grades.Subject = ""BM1(ELA)"""
SQLM1_2_ELA = "UPDATE Grades SET Grades.Type = ""Exam"""
SQLM1_3_ELA = "UPDATE Grades SET Grades.Score = ""0"""
SQLM1_4_ELA = "UPDATE Grades SET Grades.Nam = ""GUSD BM-1"""
DoCmd.RunSQL SQL
[Code] ...
I am running to syntax problems when I try to USE the INSERT INTO to create the record with all the info in one statement.
Code:
SQLM1_1_ELA = "INSERT INTO Grades ( GUSD_Student_ID, Subject, Type, Score, Nam ) " & _
"SELECT (" & Me.GUSD_Student_ID & ")"" AS GUSD_Student_ID, ""BM2(ELA)"" AS Subject, " & _
"""Exam"" AS Type, ""0"" AS Score, ""GUSD BM-1"" AS Nam " & _
"FROM Grades"
I am Getting this error:
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression '(12345)" AS GUSD_STUDENT_ID,
"BM2(ELA)" As Subject, "Exam" AS Type, "0" As Score, "GUSD BM-1" AS Nam From Grades'
I have DB used for inventory for many different categories. I have a table and form for the following: Location, Printers, Pc's and many more.
What i am trying to accomplish is to have a advanced search form that will display how many pc's and there makes and model from selecting the location name or Cost center from a combo box.
So an example would be I want to select MPP-WDF from the combo box click a button and it will return the number of PC and there makes of model's and some other information in a list of records.
How to set all controls in the form I would like to get complete information about all property options.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI created a navigation form on which I put a form call [frmAnimal Setup].
I then placed one combo box on the Navigation frm Header. I have bound it to its source and it actually queries the tbl and show the right info. However when I select one, it will not let me.
In addition, [frmanimal setup] will not allow me to select a breed although it does query the tbl and shows the right information.
I have a tab control on a form, and I want to use "Hotkeys' to get from one page to another (or more specifically, to toggle the visibility of the pages).
So, I set up the tab control with the pages I want hidden set with visible=No. Then I enable the Form.KeyPreview, so that the form will get a chance to look at all the key presses.
Lastly I have a Form.KeyDown handler, that looks like this:
Code:
Private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
MsgBox "Key pressed (1): Shift value is " & Format(Shift)
' Detect Hot-keys for the pages in the MultiPage wizard, and make them Visible or not visible
' P/D/X/S/R/H/C
If Shift = acAltMask + acShiftMask Then
[Code] ....
This is early on in the design iteration - more will happen with the pages, but this is an easy way of reviewing various aspects of a project.
So what happens?
I put a breakpoint at the first If statement, and sure enough, it picks up the Ctrl key or the Alt key, whenever they are pressed. (I need to use the mouse to clear the msgbox, naturally!) When I press both of them (Ctrl/Alt) I get the required value of 6, but I never seem to get to the second msgbox. In addition, if I comment out the first message box, I also never seem to get to the second msgbox (ie the point where the combination has been detected.
KeyDown obviously has to fire for each component of a HotKey combination, and the Shift parameter has been shown to be cumulative. The only thing I can think of is that somehow I need to turn off keypress processing somewhere else (Used to be possible to use Cancel to do this, I seem to recall).
I have a form that displays the quantity of plants that we are growing by genus, (marigolds, impatiens, petunias). each genus has many different varieties that can be used to make up the mix. I need to have some type of worksheet where we can put in the total qty and calculate the quantity of each variety by putting in percentages for each variety, much the same as you could do with a spreadsheet. The results of that worksheet then needs to be saved to a table for future use. Being fairly new to Access I'm not really sure what format to use. Is there a way to display the results of a query in datasheet view minipulate the numbers and update to my table?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got two tables - one that works like a cypher and one with all my records.
I have 2 queries. One that is a simple query that extracts data that is not so user-friendly and puts it into a user-friendly format. The Other query is for any records that the first query excludes because the new combination of data (lets just call it a code) is not in the cypher table, but needs to be added.
How do a create a form that will show the records in the 'excluded records' query and allow me to select from a drop-down list a specific set of categories to update the cypher table ?
Example :
Record Table: Cypher Table:
Ford Focus = Sedan
Ford F-150 = Truck
Ford Freestyle = Wagon
Ford Escape = SUV
Now a new model comes in, a Ford Edge which is an SUV but is not in my cypher table.
I have the query to pull in the excluded Ford Edge, but I want a form to show "Ford Edge" in the first column and be able to select from a drop-down list "SUV", and either automatically update my cypher table or require me to press a button to update the table (whichever is easier).
I am doing a worksheet for college and have been asked to create option groups on a form, but I cannot work out how to do this.
The screenshot shows what I have to do but I cannot get the option group wizard to open.
When creating my form based on the design in the screenshot I dragged the Rate field onto the design view sheet but it has only one option button connected to it, I need to add another one that will be connected to the same field and am not sure how to do it. I did try adding another option button from the control bar but I am not sure if is connected to the same field with the correct yes/no properties.
I have a form with a subform. The form shows an invoice and the subform the items to be invoiced. On this form I want to have a button that creates a credit of this full invoice.
My question is now how to add the existing invoice and details again to the same invoice table (query) and same details table (query).After clicking this button in the two tables should be the original invoice/details and its credit.
So, I have a form with 4 combo boxes and 1 field for a date.
I'd like to be able to choose an option from one or more comboboxes and create a report of all of the records matching those criteria.
Will this require VBA Coding or can I do this without it? I don't know VBA
I know I will probably have to use Queries and the Like criteria but I'm not sure where to begin and how to do it.
Is is possible to create a form that is 4 pages in length? After info is entered in first two pages I would like to print out all 4 pages to pass on to another person.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create an input form for input to tables.There is a main TblContacts table with fields such as: LastName, FirstName, Address, etc. There are also ID fields for the Company and Country and joins to the Company and Country tables, each with just ID and name fields.I want to have all the fields from the TblContacts table and the Name fields from the Company and Country tables on the form. I want to be able to select the Name fields from the Company and Country tables from combo boxes and for these also to populate the Company and Country ID fields (from the TblContacts table).
To create the form, I selected Create Form whilst the TblContacts was open. Then, I added the combo boxes pulling the names from the Company and Country tables.My problem is that the selection of the Company and Country names above is NOT populating the Company and Country ID fields on the form (taken from the TblContacts table. I have checked in relationships that the joins have been created.
I am creating a database that has a transport aspect to it.
Basically, I have a table with the list of buses, and tables for routes plied by each of the buses.
What I would like to do is that on a datasheet form, I would wish that if at the point of entering data, the data entry person selects Bus Number 1, then in the next field where the route goes, ONLY the options for the routes that this bus plies show up as what has to be selected from the look-up menu that appears. The same for the other buses and routes. Is this possible?
The database is attached....
I have a relationship between two tables; the parent table is "Client Information" with a primary key of "Client_ID", the child table is "Event Information" and the foreign key is "Client_ID".
I know that within the Event Information table I can select which Client_ID to use as the link. I want to have that done within a form, however. I have a form for Client Information with a subform for Event Information. If I go into the table and manually set the Client_ID then everything displays fine.
How can I set the Client_ID in the subform to automatically match the Client_ID in the main form? I can only assume that these solutions require the parent/child relationship to already have been established.
I have little bit problem in access here, if i want to create two textbox... first textbox for time and second textbox for unit. When I type (time) in first textbox, second textbox will appear automatically the unit number...
Example
1textbox-----------2textbox
1<time<=60 ------- 1 unit
60<time<=120 ------ 2 unit
120 < time <= 180 ------- 3 unit
I am tasked with creating a scientific database of fish catches at various different sampling stations. I envisage the entry form having a hierarchy, ie year, season, date, sample station, species caught, and then the specific associated data with each species (weight, abundance, length etc) will be a distinct record.
As fas as data entry is concerned, I would like the user to not have to re-enter the same information over and over when entering multiple species entries at the same sampling station, on the same date and so on up the hierarchy.
When I have a simple table, users pictures inside maps (jpeg,png...) defined as OLE object, when creating the form from that tables, don't have picture shown, only name of the picture? I tried all the options, package, copy, paste... nothing...always the same... just picture name but no picture.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am creating a database of bird banding and breeding records for the refuge where I currently intern. To do this, I have created the following tables:
Adult Banding Records
Nestling Banding Records
Historical Banding Records
The specific issue:
I have already created forms for entering data into these tables, but now I would like to create a "search" form that will use the primary key (which is always the band number of the individual bird, across all tables) to search ALL the tables and pull up all the information on that record. This will be convenient when we recapture a bird that is already banded, so we can look up their information in our database. Also, since I plan to add many more tables, it would be nice to not have to search each table individually.
I have created a form and insert, delete some columns, controls in layout view. When all 's completed, i saw a dark vertical line on top right of the last colulmn but i could not delete it. I deleted column, set property but they all did not work. What i have to do now? Below is a screen capture from my situation.
