This forum has been so useful to me so far... but having searched through a load of topics for a few hours now I just cannot find a correct method of having the ability to update two tables from a form.
I firstly created a query that selected the nessary fields I wish to update from the two tables.
And its apparent that I need to use RecordSet to insert the information from the form into the query.
I have found a few different ways of doing this - none of which work for me :( HELP!
Method 1 Private Sub Save_Record_Click() 'Save all entered information to tblprocess request and tblBackupRequest
Dim db As DAO.Database Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
messageusr = MsgBox("Save this infomation?", vbYesNo + vbExclamation, "Warning you are about to Save this information") If messageusr = vbYes Then
Set db = CurrentDb() Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("SELECT .Server, [Backup Request].Location, [Backup Request].BackupType, [Process General].Type, [Backup Request].[Size(GB)], [Process General].Group, [Process General].[Date required by], [Process General].[Requested by], [Process General].[Date/Time of request], [Process General].Notes FROM [Process General] INNER JOIN [Backup Request] ON [Process General].ProcessID = [Backup Request].ProcessID;")
'Clear fields on form to indicate write has occurred txtserver = "" cmblocation = "" cmbtype = "" cmbsize = "" cmbassign = "" txtrequiredby = "" txtrequestedby = "" txtrequest = "" txtnotes = ""
'Close recordset and database saverecord.Close db.Close MsgBox "This information has been succesfully saved" End 'return user back to form End If
End Sub
and I have even looked into an insert sql statement [B]Method 3 Dim SQL_Text As String SQL_Text = "INSERT INTO Backup Request (Server, Location, Type , Size(GB)) VALUES ('#Backup Request.txtserver#','#Backup Request.txtserver#','#Backup Request.txtserver#','#Backup Request.txtserver#') &" INSERT INTO Process General (Group, Date required by, Requested by, Date/Time of request, General_Type, Notes;" Docmd.RunSQL (SQL_Text, false)
Method 1 seems to be popular but its returning the message Run time error '3061' Too few parameters. Expected 3. :confused:
I need to devise a query to append data for a particular Department_ID from TBL_NEWDATA to TBL_PERSON_ALLOCATIONS where that data does not already exist there. i.e. for Department_ID 'Research', I would want to append 'Person_ID', 'Department_ID' (in this case: 'Research') to TBL_PERSON_ALLOCATIONS for any tuples not already held.
INSERT INTO TBL_PERSON_ALLOCATIONS (Person_ID, Department_ID) SELECT Person_ID, Department_ID FROM TBL_NEWDATA WHERE TBL_NEWDATA.Department_ID='Form...'
[code]...
This Query takes a single argument from a control (Forms!Main!IN_Department), and this is the Department_ID to be updated.Is there any way to do this using a single query or will I have to use sub queries? I'd hoped not to as to keep the database as concise as possible.
I am at work, and I have acquired a database that prints labels. They now want the database to be coded so that after certain labels are printed the database will print a blank label. I have the code figured out as a Do While statement in order to print the blank label. The problem I am having is that I am trying to use the Insert Into command to insert the filepath into the table that adds the blank label.
|DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO Rod_tmakLabels ( Print, [Order] ) SELECT Yes AS Expr1, 'Rods Labels' AS Expr2"|
If I run the above command, it just adds the text "Rods Labels" at the end of the table. Is there anyway with the INSERT INTO command that I can insert the new label between the 2nd and 3rd row and add another row? Or is the command designed only to add a new row to the end? I haven't had any luck searching for this yet.
I have a field that is giving me the number of business days between a period of time and then I want to subtract that number - the person's PTO time to see the actual days they were available...when I simply type the number in (see below) it works great but I want to set up a prompt that will ask me how many PTO Days to calculate as it will be different for each person I am quering...is this possible?
I am using an Access 2010 DB to keep track of a schedule. Essentially, at least one person needs to be signed up to work for every hour of every day in a week.
Tables: Days with 7 records Hours with 24 records Workers with as many people that sign up to work the different hours Schedule signifying the worker, day, and hour which are signed up.
As of now i have a query that relates these results and gives me a line detailing the worker/time information for the slots that are signed up for.What I'm TRYING to do is to create a query that gives me BLANK worker info when there is no one signed up for a particular hour.Currently my Schedule table has the following:
What I'm looking to do is have this table matched up with another table (or query) that provides every combination of day/hour. When an day/hour combination is skipped, the query will be able to "fill in the blank" with a row. Like this:
I work with access web database. In access web aggregate functions are disabled in query design. So I made a query in client and i thought then i can insert this data to another web table. but i don't know how to update this table.
Because the source table of the query is also updated.
I upload the database with a table in it and a query. I want to add the data of this query to another web table....

I have a combo box Customer_Name on Order Form; and I want it open the Customer Form when an user insert a new customer to input all data. This seems simple at first, but problems are these:
1- whenever an user opens Customer Form on a new customer, the user would have to make the input once again (at least retype the customer's name on the field).
2- since the Customer_Name and other fields are required in the table, the Order_form would not allow the user to close it unless all field are filled properly.
Dilemma is you have to fill in the Customer_Name field before the table refresh all records and display it in the combo box on Order Form

I have set up a customer database for our small electronics company and i have built a form called contact history. In the form i show a few details about the customer (name phone number etc) but the bulk of the form is a large text box for a contact log.I would like to have a button on the form that takes me to the contact log field, inserts todays date and allows me to update whats been said to the customer etc. I have it working using setfocus and date functions however it erases any information already in the field. Is there a way to skip to the end of the field and insert a new line, then add the date and allow me to begin typing?I would like the end result to look like the following.

i tried with the above syntax but was unable to succeed.
if this is not possible can anyone help me in solving the problem
I'm trying to write the VBA code to insert data into an audit table. My code is in a function which will have the values to be inserted to it passed to the function.
My function code looks like:
Function InsertAuditRecord(stAction, stTimestamp, stUser) As String
The values "stAction", "stTimestamp" and "stUser" are the values passed by the calling procedure, but when this query is executed, the Enter Parameter Value window pops up, asking for the values for each of these 3 variable.
Can anyone tell me how to code the query so that it will use the values passed to the function?
I have a form with a subform. I want to use the main form to insert new data and the subform to show all records that are there. One could say that the after inserting a new record with the fields in the form and save it, it should appear in the subform datasheet view.
I want to insert obtain marks of the subjects. Find the attached my db. when i select combo value my requirement is to insert the all records which associate with the combo. but when i select combo value it will happen nothing.
i have a table of calls, with a field called "link to file".
i have a form where staff fill in their calls and when they have completed the call there is an option to insert a hyperlink to where the file is stored.
i previosuly had an attachemnt there but the database would just grow and grow so now its prefered there is a link to where the files are kept.
i just dont know how to set it up, i have tried adding in a text field and setting it to hyperlink which does work but on the form the user has to right click the button and edit hyperlink to place it in - is there an easier way of just clicking the button and it brings up a folder location where you select the file and it saves it as a hyperlink into the table under linked to file?
