1) I Created a button that imports data into a table (Hours)
2) I created a query that finds duplicates in that table
3)I created a form put the button on said form
4) I dragged my query from explorer window onto form
5) I click button, code runs to import data into table however query on form doesnt update, I have to close and then re-open the form, obviously this is no good.
I have an open form "MattersFileFrm" that has total fields on it.
I have a transaction form open where the user is entering figures into a few fields. I then want to add those figure to the total fields on the other form.
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")
I have data that needs to be entered. It is the same data across 3 tables but only for the first three columns, then it is different. I can create a form for one of these but not for all three.
I have a form that has combo boxes and text fields (as well as sub forms). There is also a button linked to some code that says'
Private Sub cmdQuote_Click() 'Creates quote date and prints quote Me.QuoteDate = Now() Me.cbAgentID.Requery DoCmd.OpenReport "Quote", acViewPreview, , "BookingID = " & Me.BookingID End Sub
When the button is pressed the QuoteDate field (it is bound) should be be populated, but unfortunately it is not. I have played with refresh and requery but cannot derive a solution.
I have a basic DB for recording supplier records, you enter a supplier ID and it performs Dlookups to run and display query results on the same form. That part works fine.
I've added a subform and linked it to an existing query which returns the suppliers top selling lines and the query picks up the supplier from the ID field on the main form, however when I enter a new id the subform doesn't update with the results specific to that supplier.
So I think I need a way of getting the subform to re-run the query each time I update the supplier ID field, but I can't see an option for this in the subform properties.
I have 2 fields in a form called 'Employee No's' which use a combo box (this information for these comes from a query). However, I have another form called 'Employee Details' (this form comes from the same table as the query is taken from).
The 'Employee No's' form opens by a command button in the 'Employee Details' Form. However, what I need to be able to do is for the query (used for the combo box) to update with information I have just put in the 'Employee Details' form while I have not yet closed the 'Employee Details' Form.
Would I use an SQL statement for this? If so what would I put?
I have a form where I type in the time a person starts a job. The format is Medium Time. I also have a box where I type in the End time for that job. Also formatted in Medium Time. I have another box that is for if a break happens during that job to return the value 10. My formula for that box is: =IIf([Start Time]<"9:00 AM" And [End Time]>"9:10 AM",10,0). The problem that I am having is that it only works when the time is in the 9:00 AM to 9:59 AM time frame. I need it to work where if a person starts at 6:00 AM and gets done at 2:30 PM to return the value of 10.
I have a continuous form that is using a select query to populate all of the bound controls. The drop downs and text boxes are displaying the values from the correct places. But, the form is not updating in the places I expected.
The select query that is being used to populate, combines information from 3 tables.'TimeEntries' table (the one that I want records to be updated in). This holds employee ID, and numeric values for Project Name and Project Task.
'ProjectInfo' table (nothing should be updated here). This table holds other details about the project (ex. Project Name) that is used to populate a combo box. 'ProjectTasks' table (nothing should be updated here either). This table holds details about project task (ex. Task Description) that is used to populate a combo box.
The issue I am having is that when records are updated on the form, they are adding records to all 3 tables that are a part of the query, instead of just updating the time entries table.
Record Source (form) = Select Query "EmployeeTimeEntry"
I have a table which is used to store info regarding medicines dispensed. I also have a corresponding Form to enter data. The fields in Table are
ID- number Dispensed Date- date with dd/mm/yyyy format Dispensed Type- text Quantity- no. of days Next Collection Date- date with dd/mm/yyyy format
The Form also contains same fields but it has a calculated field for ( Next Collection Date) where i calculate date using Dateadd function. Also the form has a Datasheet view. So records are added when I press Tab or Enter at last field.
Now the problem is the calculated dates arent getting updated in the table. And this is a huge problem as i have to run a query later where i will put a criteria on Next Collection Date.
I have a popup form that user will select for updating 4 fields in table. I have a update button that has code behind it that verifies the record is complete before closing the popup form. That works well.
However, I want to add an abort button that will close the form and save nothing entered however, I getting incomplete records and blank records. How can I code the button to not update the table and just close the form?
I am using Access 2003 and there is a from with barcode scanner to update the shipping data. This form has a sub-form which is working perfectly fine and updating data but the barcode scanner assigned with main form stopped working today. I tried different scanner too and different system too but its not working.
And I can display any existing question and make updates to the question and answer, that works fine. BUT, what I want to do is update which category a question is in. If I change the Category in the form, it updates the 'Category' in the Category table. What I want it to do is update the CategoryID in the question table.
I have a form that opens a subform with a list of work orders by who they are assigned to. I would like to be able to close any or all of the work orders. When I close them, I need the timestamp to be updated, but I can't seem to figure out just how to make that happen. Any ideas?
First, let me point out that I am a new Access user, so apologies ahead of time
I have a form which has a field called 'Initials'. I want this field on the form to default to whatever was last entered (into the table called 'Main Table'). I first tried setting the default value with a DLast command, which seemed to work for a day or so, but then it returned values from mid-table - very strange
I then set up a query which does return the value of the last Initials entered (cunningly called 'Last intials entered'), but I can't get the field in the form to default to this value - it comes up with #Name?
Can anyone help, or have I not explained myself very well
Combo box on continuous form should have the control source listed as the field on the form that will be updated. The Row Source, however, is a query that includes 2 things: the field on the form that will be updated (this part will be nonvisible in your form) and the table/query of selections you want to show up in the combo box (visible). Then ensure the Bound column is set to 1 and the Column count is set to 2 with Column Widths as 0";1"
I have a navigation tab with 6 sections, of the 6, 5 of them are self-made split view with a form view on top and datasheet on bottom and upon adding records through a command button on form view I would like the datasheets to update.
On other forms it would (I believe) update to the bottom of the datasheet, now on the ones I've been banging my head against it either replaces the top record or doesn't show up unless I switch tabs and switch back. From my searches I assume this is in need of a requery...
Test findings showed that when I open a form the data does not update. I added a refresh action after the openform action. If I want to open three forms via the macro, do I need three refresh actions, one after each openform action, or simply a single refresh action that would apply to all three forms.
Hi, I've spend ages reviewing the relationships between my tables and changing my query but cannot get this to work. I've read alot of the posts on the subject also but trying to apply the suggestions to my problem hasn't worked.
It is a database of engineering drawings. A drawing can have one or more revisions. I have written code to import the drawing and revision info into the datebase so when the drawings are actually received I need to be able to add the additional data in tblReceivedDrawings such as the tracking number, date received etc. These are my tables:
I have created a query called qSelDrawingsAndRevisions which combines tblDrawingRegister and tblDrawingRevisions.
The form is based on a query called qSelIncomingDrawings. This query joins qSelDrawingsAndRevisions and tblReceivedDrawings. It shows all the records from qSelDrawingsAndRevisions and related records from tblReceivedDrawings and is joined on the drawingNum and Rev.
Adding the extra info e.g. tracking num, date received etc about drawings that are in tblDrawingsRegister works fine. However if I want to add a completly new drawing I get an error message: "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot find a record in the table 'tblDrawingsRegister' with key matching field(s) 'qSelDrawingsAndRevisions.DrawingNum'
How can I get it to update the drawingNum in tblDrawingRevisions and tblDrawingsRegister at the same time? Is it an issue with my query or relationships? Or do I need to write an OnUpdate procedure for the DrawingNum textbox so that it created a new record in the DrawingsRegister table to correspond with the one in the DrawingsRevisions table? I have a feeling that this might be overcomplicating it and that I just need to change the query?
Am very confused about how to approach this and would really appreciate a few pointers...
I have made a form based on a query that pulls information from 4-5 tables. I would like to be able to change information in those 4-5 tables by using that form, but I am unable to do it. I opened up the properties for the form and set "data entry" and "Allow edits" and "allow additions" and "allow subtractions" all to YES. That didn't help.
Is it possible to do this, since the form is based on a query? I couldn't figure out a good way to set up the form getting the information directly from the four tables. I'm not sure why it's been so difficult.
I have one table full of all of the various titles I have. The tables are related using those titles, and each table has a different sort of information for each record. So, the "main" table is "ALL TITLES," but when I go make a form, I can't get ALL TITLES to be the controlling table. It's very frustrating. But a query works beautifully--I just can't change anything.
(I would like to have the form be a "user-friendly" way for people to make changes.)
I have a table holding clients data, I need it to work out the age of someone when an application is made, which I would like to be stored on said table. I have two fields [DOB] and [signed date], which I have used created a query with and an (unbooud?) field called age at application with the expression =DateDiff("yyyy",[DOB],[Date signed])
This works fine when I run the query, but I am unsure of the new next step of how to commit it to the table and even if that's possible.Ideally I would like this to run behind a form maybe using some click event after the [signed date] field has been entered.
