I am using ms access for entry of data of AC technicians. All Technicians can gain bonus amount in % if they work well and bonus % is dynamic for each technician. Suppose, Technician Mr.Jhon work for $300 or above so his bonus % is 5 and if he done work of $800 or above then bonus % is 9 and son on. But this % rule is not same for each Technician(based on experience company decided the %).
So How can i get % figure while entering data of specific Technician suppose I am entering Data for Mr.Jhon and i enter work done $600 (which is greater than $300) so the value 5 should be appear in next of my form column.
I have a form that I am inputting data into. I have been able to Clear the form. I have created an edit script and it brings the data from the table to populate the form. When I try to change the data in the form and run a VBA update to push the data down to the table I am having no luck. I can add/Delete recordswith no problems but I can't edit them and put them back in the table. I am novice and just learning the formats and scripting.
I have a quick query. I have a table with a Account Code and its relavant Account Name.
What im tyring to do is in a query or another table, which has 17000 rows of data and the account code has been used in each entry. What i'm trying to do is to be able to create another column where the relavant Account Name can be next to Account code in the query or table.
I have a database set up with charts which plot information about support for "quality" purposes. I have reports that work out the percentages but i would like to be able to take the percentage figure (say on the 1st of each month) and add it to a graph which will then be able to show the figures from the last 12 months so i can see how well the support is performing. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I have a text box that is displaying a value from a table where the display control for the field in the table is a two row combo box. The text box on my form (I'm droping the text box on the form and manually changing the control source) is displaying the second column of the combobox where as I want the first column. If I drag the combobox from the field list onto the form it does show the expected first column (now if i change this to a text box in properties it shows the second column as well). Is there a way to change the text box to view the first column?
I have a Navigation form which contains a subform and on that subform is a datasheet.
Navigation Form -> Navigation Subform -> MyForm -> MyDatasheet
I have been having a hard time getting the datasheet to update - I've tried several methods (refresh, requery, repaint, etc). Even pressing the "Refresh All" button on access takes 1 or 2 refreshes before my data is updated.
I'm creating a database for a music store which also does music lessons. In the header I wish to display the number of lessons that are taking place each day, the number will be dynamic as the number of lessons vary from day to day. I obviously have a table with all the lessons that have already taken place, as well as lessons that are taking place in the future.
I've attached the header (isn't the final version) as an example.
I have a table which has contact details in it... two fields are FirstName and Surname. I want to create a new field called initials which takes the first letter from each of the former two fields. Is it possible to do this using an update query?
I created a database for another department that I split and configured the FE to point to the BE via an IP address on my server at my office. It worked perfectly.
The department moved to another location outside of our building. I placed the database on the server in their new location. I configured the FE to point to the BE via a physical driver letter.
'z:sosvr1epl databaseepl_fe' AND 'z:sosvr1epl databaseepl_be'.
The problem is that everytime they access the FE it gives them an error message stating that the db cannot find the BE on the drive letter "s". I KNOW ... IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE.
I tried to correct the problem by configuring the FE to point to the BE via an IP address on their server. It did not work because their administrator could not get the login and password to their server to work.
They also stated that whenever you make modifications in a different enviroment, my office, and bring it to another enviroment, their new building, you will need to take "ownership" of the db in the new environment. Ok ... I did that. I went into the security under the properties of the FE file, and viewed all of the staff that needed full control, and saw that everyone did have full control.
Please help me. I hope I explained this clearly. Even though it does not make sense. I am clueless.
an IP address on my server at my office. It worked perfectly.
I am having a problem where I have a form that I enter data into. Sometimes when I enter the information it will add a record to the table and sometimes it doesn't. It doesn't put the information in the table more times than it does.
I have tried to enter the information outside the form and it still does the same thing.
Do you have any suggestions of what I can do to fix this.
I have on MS Access database.which was working fine untill now but suddenly it started this strange behaviour. When i open it it opens without any error but stays in the frozen state for like 5 mins means i cant do any thing or i cant click anywhere.
and after 5 mins it starts working fine.Does anyone have any clue abt this strange behaviour.
I have two queries which are slightly different. One of the queries takes way too much time and resources and I'm wondering if anyone could explain me why, and if possible, how to fix it.
This query is slow.
Unseen Movies SELECT "General Info"."Title", "Additional Info"."Subtitles" FROM "General Info" INNER JOIN "Additional Info" ON "General Info".id="Additional Info".id WHERE ("General Info"."Seen" = 0) ORDER BY "General Info"."Title";
This query is fast.
Unseen Movies With SubTitles SELECT "General Info"."Title", "Additional Info"."Subtitles" FROM "General Info" INNER JOIN "Additional Info" ON "General Info".id="Additional Info".id WHERE (("Additional Info"."Subtitles" IS NOT NULL) AND ("Additional Info"."Subtitles"<>'') AND (("General Info"."Seen" = 0))) ORDER BY "General Info"."Title";

i am querying two tables TBL_FCST_WKLY which has 29500 records and TBL_ACTUAL_WKLY which has 798222 records. When i run this query it sites there forever. Is it because i dint optimize my query or is it because the number of records is too much for access? can someone help plz.
I copied my data from MSAccess which one of the fields is a hyperlink field into excel. Well, the field contains text reading "FileA" but the hyperlink is dbfilesFileA.doc. Since I have it in Excel now, I want to be able to just have the data read "FileA.doc" instead of FileA, I thought if I can get the field to read the hyperlink path dbfilesFileA.doc then I can maybe use the Mid formula to take out dbfiles....
So I have two tables. One table "tbl_SRVASSET" lists out servername, serialnumber and asset tag. Second table "tbl_SRVNIC" list out the same servername, IPAddress and IPAddressTypeDesc.
The issue is that I have records in the "tbl_SRVNIC" with the same server listed numerous times (because it has 2 or 3 NIC's). So there is obviously a one to many relationship betweeen the two tables (common I guess). What I'm trying to do is be able to take the servers in the "tbl_SRVNIC" table and a new table or create a query with a single record for that server and have all 2, 3, 4 or maybe more IPAddress's assigned to them listed in the same record. This is what I'm having trouble with...
The end result is that after I've got this new table that lists only a single server and it's associated NIC's in the same record I can then combine that data with the "tbl_SRVASSET" via a basic query so my end result is a brand new table "tbl_SRVDETAIL" that looks like this: SERVERNAME, SERIALNUBMER, ASSET, SERVER NIC1 IPADDRESS, SERVER NIC1 IPADDRESSTYPE DESC, SERVER NIC2 IPADDRESS, SERVER NIC2 IPADDRESSTYPE DESC, SERVER NIC3 IPADDRESS, SERVER NIC3 IPADDRESSTYPE DESC, (and maybe more columns if there are more, but that is a variable as some servers have 2 NIC's, Some with 3 or more so...).
Just upgraded to Acccess 2007 and have ownership problem extracting queries from a 2002 db.
When trying to import into a new 2007 or export from the 2002, get "you have no permission" message
Have created a new user tried to change owner of the db, but no permission File security looks correct in that I am owner of the file with full permissions, but Access doesn't recognize me as the owner
Tried logging in as admin, but it isn't the owner either
This is not critical, just very time consuming, this is a test project, but it would be nice not to have to rewrite about 30-40 queries and equivalent forms
Loc Company Pack RoundedNum SumTotal 2 ASDA AA 1 2 ASDA AA 5 6 1 Asda AC 2 2 1 ABC BB 10 1 ABC BB 1 11 2 XYZ AR 1 1
I am trying to achieve "SumTotal" column result. In the above query RoundedNum is an expression achieved from other columns(not shown above) from the same querytable. Now I want to insert this "SumTotal" column which will count for Total RoundedNum as per same type of Packs.
Thus the Total Field should look like the one shown above. Any idea how can i achieve this? :confused:
I'm designing a query that must calculate a future date based on a recorded date. Unfortunately it's not as simple as just using adddate (unless I was using Excel!). Here's my requirements:
Future Date = [StartDate] + 45 business days
I am able to take weekends into account, but haven't been able to figure out how to bring holidays into the equation. I have an existing holidays table that I am using for another query within the database (calculates # of business days between 2 existing dates).
Hope this makes sense... I've been staring at it all day so I may not be thinking clearly anymore.
IThe db has a form called ClientFormNew which logs client details into a table called Clients.Each client has a unique client ID in the table called ClientID. Sometimes Clients call back for further information and we want to log that information into a related table called ClientHistory.Each record in the ClientHistory table has a unique ID called HistoryID which is the same number as the ClientID so these fields are related.
When a client calls back and the telephone adviser opens up the ClientFormNew form and discovers they have called before they need to click on a button called Client History which then opens up the ClientHistoryForm..I am struggling with the code to put on the Client History button as I want the new form to display the details of the clients first contact then allow details of the second contact to be added in a new row. Also the new form needs to show all that client past history which would be in the form of the following fields from the ClientHistory table.HistoryID, ContactDate, Name, ContactMethod, ContactReason, AdviceGiven, Notes.
HI, this should be relatively simple, but for some reason I cannot figure it out.
I have a field titled "DEADLINE" - a user inputs a date in this field (the datatype for this filed id date/time)
What I want to do is, on the form create a text box which takes the deadline date - todays date to give me the number of days to the deadline date. Once the dealine date has passed I then want to turn the counter to Red to show it is overdue. If there is no dealine then I want the field to say something like "No Deadline Set"
i have a database and i need to be able to read all the records from table1 modify the data and output the data to table2 and I would prefer this to be done via just one button in a form so im guessing VBA need to be used.
table1 consists of an ID field, firstname field, lastname field and date field.
table2 has ID field, full name field, date field
so i want to read the first and last name and date from table1, merge the first and last name and then output the merged names and date to table 2.
ive googled around and all ive come up against is recordsets but im having a hard time actually getting them to even work.
I am currently in the midst of conversation over at utteraccess.com about a large database project I am working on.
I will post the most recent updates here, but if you want to download the database for your own review, you'll have to go over to the other forum. By the way, this is NOT an advertisement. I am a real person with a real, significant, and immediate need of as much assistance as possible for this project.
Before I go on, a few things about me. Though I am in the legal profession, my technological background is very strong, including a high level of proficiency with MS Office apps with the exception of Access. I know my way around the program (the result of its homogeneity with the rest of Office), but have not made a real database in the past. I also do not know any programming languages.
I have recently indulged in an Access crash course of sorts, including some book and online study on things like planning, design, and normalization, but I am still having difficulty wrapping my head around making it work.
That said, the link to the other discussion is: [W W W DOT]utteraccess.[ADD DOT COM]/forums/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=1590364&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=all&vc=1
Feel free to gloss over it to see how things have progressed. Below is a paste of my most recent substantive post. Any help anyone can give me is of great value to me and I really, really appreciate it. _____________________
Hi Everyone,
Attached is the most updated version of my database project for your review. I have also attached a sample of the output we would like to have for each product. This sample is not based on actual data, but it clearly shows what we are trying to achieve via a form of some sort. More on this in a minute.
The following changes have been made to the DB:
-Changed tblTrustProspectusVersion to include the appropriate data, based on our business model. -Added descriptions to all non-PK fields. -Created relationships to illustrate how things fit together. Note that these are NOT the actual relationships, but are for illustrative purposes to help everyone here (including myself) further understand how things fit together.
Our Business:
I am part of my company's legal department. Our team handles a number of different things primarily associated with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). filings. We have two major product lines. Everything that happens with one in this DB happens with the other as well.
Each product within a product line has certain features and other necessary information we need to see when doing our filings (see the attached sample output). These features and necessities include, but are not limited to, various statuses, various numbers associated with the SEC, various important dates, etc.
In addition, each product has a certain "fund lineup" associated with it. These funds are made up of two components: the name of the fund (aka "portfolio") and the name of the subadvisor to that fund.
Futher, each of these funds is associated with a certain Trust. The SEC requires us to send prospectuses to clients based on these Trusts, which, as I mentioned, are comprised of the said funds.
Basically, we need to be able to select a product from a drop-down list and have all of the aforementioned information populate instantly.
Before I close, one question with respect to my "tblProductFeatures". Like I mentioned, each product has a certain set of features associated with it. Each feature has a certain fee associated with it. These features come in four basic categories: Living Benefits + fees, Death Benefits + fees; Maintenance fees (just short list of the possible fees); and 12b-1 fees (another short list of fees).
Since the features can be so easily broken down, should I add them to their own tables?
Please consider this as you give your advice on how to acheive my desired goal.
I hope this makes sense.
And again, thank you all so very much for your help thus far.
I am importing data from a sharepoint list on to Access 2007, as linked data where any changes I make on Access is made to the list and vice versa. However, I recently made a change to one of the column types and this change is not being made on Access. I have changed a column type from choice to single line of text but I still see the list of choices when I access the list on Access 2007.
I have refreshed the list by right clicking the linked list and pressing refresh list. The list is set to not cache the list and is not set to work offline so cannot see why the change is not being made. I don't want to mess with the list be removing it and re-adding it as I have multiple queries set up which are being fed in to an excel file I use to create reports from the data. I have no knowledge of VBA, so there is none of that being used on Access.
I have been looking for quite some time for some vba code that would return a date based on values in 2 fields.
In other words, I already have a field that returns transit days based on the customer chosen. End users will then enter a DueDate for the order. I want a field that returns a "ScheduledShipDate" based on [DueDate]-[TransitDays]. The part that makes this more difficult, in my opinion, is the fact that I also need to take into account some specific holidays.
I have already constructed a table with a list of the 6 company holidays and their corresponding dates. [tblHolidays.HolidayDate]
Unfortunately, my vba knowhow might as well be limited to copy and pasting as I do not need to use it all that often.
I have a cross tab query that takes input from the user. The code is as under:
PARAMETERS [START_MONTH] DateTime, [END_MONTH] DateTime; TRANSFORM Round(Sum(([A_GAS_m3]+[NA_GAS_m3])/1000000),3) AS GAS_MMSCM SELECT maindata.on_off, maindata.state, maindata.OPERATOR, maindata.field_block FROM maindata RIGHT JOIN PRODUCTION ON maindata.field_block=PRODUCTION.FIELD_BLOCK WHERE ((PRODUCTION.MONTH) Between Format([START_MONTH],"dd-mm-yyyy") And Format([END_MONTH],"dd-mm-yyyy"))) GROUP BY maindata.on_off, maindata.state, maindata.OPERATOR, maindata.field_block ORDER BY maindata.on_off, maindata.state, maindata.OPERATOR, maindata.field_block PIVOT PRODUCTION.ACTIVITY;
I am facing 3 problems with the above code:
1. Access prompts to enter the start month and end month even when I click the save button. 2. When I run the query it prompts to enter the start month and end month twice. 3. I have generated a report based on the above query. When I run the report it keeps on prompting for start month and end month and does not give the final result.
