Forms :: Populating Null Field In Form From A Different Column In Same Table
Sep 15, 2013
I've been trying to populate a field in a form with information, but only if the field is blank.
What I am trying to do is this.
I have a continuous form displaying all of our principals, however when our principals are on leave I want to populate the field with the "acting principal". I have set it up so the field grabs the acting principal first but it is blank for several schools. For these schools where there there is no "acting principal" I want it to grab the substantive principal automatically and populate the field.
I have tried Is Null, Is Not Null, NZ, IF, Where and Then statements but to no avail.

I have an address box that I would like to auto populate with a double click event. Basically, if the location address is the same as the main company address, and there isn't any data already in the location field, then I would like the user to be able to just double click the location address and the field gets automatically populated with the main company address.
Private Sub Address_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
If IsNull(Me.Address) Then
Me!Address = Me.CompanyName.Column(1)
End If
So this works fine if the main company address actually has an address in it. But if it doesn't then double clicking the location address produces a run time error 3315 for trying to populate a null value.

I'm using a combo box to pull data from a table to auto populate the fields on my form. But for some reason, it stops inserting the data after city (column(6) and I can't figure out what's going on. When I run the query the data is there, if I change the order of the columns, the data shows. Here's the code:
Me.txtadjusterfname.Value = Me.cboAdjusterlkp.Column(0)
Me.txtadjusterlname.Value = Me.cboAdjusterlkp.Column(1)
Me.txtadjustertitle.Value = Me.cboAdjusterlkp.Column(2)
Me.txtadjustertype.Value = Me.cboAdjusterlkp.Column(3)
Me.txtadjustercompany.Value = Me.cboAdjusterlkp.Column(4)
Me.txtadjusteraddress.Value = Me.cboAdjusterlkp.Column(5)
Me.txtadjustercity.Value = Me.cboAdjusterlkp.Column(6)
Me.txtadjusterstate.Value = Me.cboAdjusterlkp.Column(7)

Hi all,
In the organisation that I work for employees get paid every 2 weeks on a Saturday. So for this financial year the pay period end dates have been 08/07/2006, 22/07/2006, 05/08/2006 etc
I have a column in an Access table listing various dates. I want the next column to be
populated with the next pay period end date after that date.
So if DATE is 05/07/2006 I want PAY PERIOD END to be 08/07/2006
and if DATE is 09/07/2006 I want PAY PERIOD END to be 22/07/2006 etc
How do I do this?
Kind Regards,
Matthew

I have a combobox on my form with fields related to it (ie. when an option is chosen in the drop-down, the next two fields are also populated with data based on the selection made - I know this is duplication of data, it's just the way the 'powers that be' wanted it. I'm changing it in my next version of the database!)
The two fields that are populated as a result of the selection in the combobox are migrating into the related table fine, but the actual selection in the combobox isn't - it's showing up as blank in each new record in the table.

In the Contacts Table there are two fields, the unique Contact ID key field numeric and the Contact Name. Like this:
Contact_ID; Name
1; Tom
2; Dick
3; Harry
In a form named "Selection" there is a Combo box that references the Contact table, and lists just the three names in the drop down (showing the Contact_ID is optional - I'm fine either way):
Tom
Dick
Harry
When the selection is made it will populate the field Contact_Ref the table called SelectedName.
Question: When the user selects the name I'd like the data populated in the SelectedName table to be the Contact_ID Value, and not the Name, so if Harry is selected the Value "3" would be saved.

This is the function i'm using for summing a listbox column:
Function TonSum() As Variant
Dim I As Integer, J As Integer, ctl As Control
Set ctl = Me.lstDrivera2
J = ctl.ListCount - 1
[code]...
The problem i have is if one the records in the listbox doesn't have a value (is null) then Access gives me a 'Type Mismatch' error. How to treat the null value so it excludes it from the sum?

I have a form called PAF_Assignment and on this form there are many textboxes for editing. After all fields are entered, the user clicks on a button and this button populates the PAF_Issued_Date field with the actual date.
Then I want to disable (enable=False) all fields on this form once there is a date on PAF_Issued_Date as I don't want any user to make any changes after submitting it, although the user would still be able to read the information submitted.
I have tried the following...
PAF_Assignment Form AfterUpdate Event
If Me.PAF_Issued_Date=Not null Then
Me.FieldName1.Enabled=False
Me.FieldName2.Enabled=False
Me.FieldName3.Enabled=False
[Code] ......
However this is not working, there is no error message or anything but the fields remain enabled with the date...

I have a subform with continuous records. One of the fields in the recordset of the subform is a field named "Remarks". This field does not need to be visible on the continuous subform as it is rare that this field will have any entries.
I plan to apply conditional formatting on another field (IDcardNo) in the record line of the continuous subform so that when field "Remarks" contains any data it will show as a different format on the field IDcardNo.
I would like to make a small form appear when one points to the IDcardNo field with the different format, so that the data in the field "Remarks" pops up when one points to the field IDcardNo with altered format, showing that there is data in the field "Remarks".

What is wrong with this query?
=IIf(IsNull([OffPeakDay],IIf(IsNull([OffPeakHour],Sum([Import]-[Export]),0)))
What I want is to sum the field (Import minus Export which are numeric) on the form if the OffPeakDay AND OffPeakHour fields are null.

I do not understand what is happening here. I have foll0wing line in a calculated query field:
m: Switch([EmpID]<5,1) ' run Query 18 in attached example, A2007/2010
this produces 1 for all EmpID<5 and Null for all other EmpID's. All as expected.
But if I do this:
m: Switch([EmpID]<5,1,[EmpID]>=5,Null) ' run Query 19 in attached example
then the entire column is set to Null

I'm using Access 2007. I've created a table with two fields. "Novice and Recertification" as in combo box.
I put it on the form. Now the idea is when a user clicks Recertification, it shows up on the report. When the user clicks on Novice, it should be empty on report (Reason why I want to keep novice is so that we have a record of it.)
Now the challenge is I added another column, empty field for Novice and Recertification for Recertification. Thing is if I set the bound column, I select on an empty field on form and it will be empty on report. But I want the user to see Novice on the form and it must not show on the report.

I have to change a few column names in my Tables. I am looking for an easy way to check all the places where this column name is used. In VBA modules i can search for its usage, but is there a way to search if the column is used in a form in one of its fields or if its used in a control? At the moment the only way I know is to simple make the table column change and then used all the controls to see where I get errors.

I have 2 forms. Information from one field links both forms (though it is not the primary key). Using a "open form" button I want the field on the second form to be populated with the contents from the same field on the first form, when a user selects the open form button. I imagine all of this is very doable in SQL, however I am using Access GUI to construct my database and have no time to learn SQL at this stage. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I know auto-populating has been asked before for forms, but I am looking to auto-populate a couple of fields in a table based on an ID Number that corresponds to another table. I realize it is not the best practice to duplicate data in a DB, however, I am using an ID card program that requires tables to populate the ID card information. My hope is to have two separate tables for 2 versions of ID cards.
The first table is called Firefighter info with fields of ID Number, First Name, Last Name, and Firefight Certs, EMS Certs, and emergency contact information. The second table is called EMS Personnel with fields of ID Number, First Name, Last Name, EMS Certs, and other fields that will be entered manually. I would like the First Name, Last Name, and EMS Certs fields to auto-populate in the EMS Personnel table when the ID Number is entered. I have a relationship already listed between the two table that links the ID Numbers in both.
The Firefighter Info contains the information for all members of the department, regardless of whether they are EMS, or strictly firefighters. The EMS personnel table contains information strictly regarding to the EMS members. Thus, the ID number you are entering into the EMS table will always correspond to an existing entry in the Firefighter Info table.

I have the following tables:
Inquiry (This is the main table I want to populate through the use of a form)
Programs
My question refers to two columns in the Inquiry Table
Program
Group
The program column is populated by a drop down menu that is linked from a programname column in the Programs table.
I I want is the Group column in the Inquiry table to autopopulate based on the selected programname (There is a group column associated in the Programs table) so the form field will be autopopulated.
What I have tried is autopopulating the form (form name is Inquiries) Field called Group by using =[Program].[Column](1) in the source code of the text box. This works well, but it then does not populate the main table.
I need to either
- Learn how to populate the main table column called Group based on the form autopopulating
or
- Learn how to autopopulate the column Group in in the table so the form will autopopulate

I have two tables, "Membership" and "Class." The Class table has a class ID, class name, and cost of the class.
In the Membership table, I have a field to accept a class ID that is entered by a user. I also have a column called Tuition. When the user enters a classID in the Membership table, I would like the dollar amount associated with that classID to automatically appear in the field called Tuition in the Membership table.
I tried the LOOKUP data type and calculated fields, but no luck. I know that DLOOKUP can be used on forms, but I don't see how it can be used directly with tables.
Is this even possible?

The pop-up will show the content of the parent form field or a literal if it is blank.
But it doesn't work. The syntax is invalid but my meaning is clear to everyone but the compile.
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
If [Forms]![MeetingStatus]![List2].[Column](3) = "" Then
Set [Forms]![Comment]![Text2] = "No comments"
Else
Set [Forms]![Comment]![Text2] = [Forms]![MeetingStatus]![List2].[Column](3)
End If
End Sub
Help!

I posted a few days ago about how I am using a combo box for selecting/entering a name on a form. Once the name is chosen for 'txtEventLeader' it updates the query so the next record shows that name as an option for selection in the combobox.
What I want to do now is also have a field called 'txtEventFacilitator' which would also update the query and update the combobox (regardless if one is choosing the Event Leader or Event Facilitator). I think I need to make a one column query which puts all of the names in one column, regardless if they were the Event Leader or Event Facilitator.
I hope I asked this correctly.

As simple as it sounds. I have set up a table with a list of items and the costs. I then created a form with a list comprising 10 combo boxes. I want to be able to select one record from the underlying table per combobox on the form.
I am able to do this but the records in the underlying table keeps switching to the primary key field as I go along using the combobox.
