Forms :: Verification Rule Based On Data In Another Field
Mar 5, 2015
I want to set a rule where employees cannot change the "Status" from "Active" to "Closed" if there is no date entered in the "Actual Closure Date" field.
The 2 fields I am trying to create a rule for are called 'Actual Closure Date' and 'Status'.When we raise an incident the 'Status' is set to 'Active' and the 'Actual Closure Date' field is left blank as it hasn't yet been closed.What I want to do is prevent people setting the 'Status' to 'Closed' when they havent entered a date in the 'Actual Closure Date' field.The Form name is called 'Issue Details' and the information is stored in a table called 'Issues'.

Hi,
Does anyone know if its possible to base a validation rule on the data that is already in the field in a table?
e.g. there are 10 records in a table each with an ID number starting at 1 and going up to 10. When new record added i need a validation rule that will prompt the user to enter a number greater than the previous number entered for the ID.
so they will not be able to enter 1 - 10.
hope thats clear
cheers.

I have a db with the following fields: ID, Customer first name, customer last name, account number, date, time, score1, score 2.
My problem is this: We are running a promotion in which the customers receive a score. This score must be entered correctly as we are highly regulated, however the users are constantly fat fingering or miss typing the data. I want to force the score 1 and score 2 fields to match before the record can be saved.
Any suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated; I have to go in every night to correct these errors manually, which defeats the purpose of this db.

I am trying to create a validation rule whereby If a box is checked it makes sure that before saving and moving to the next form several, though not all fields are valid.
Ive tried many variations of:
([x] Is Not Null) OR ([Y] is Null) And ([x] Is Not Null) OR ([Y] is Null] etc etc for the fields I need covered.
Either the rule doesnt work at all or else all data input is invalid!

I have a form that each day needs to be filled in by staff of their activities.
By selecting a date, I want to the textbox to display the contents of the comments memo pad field in the table (tblToday...columns are t_date and t_comments).
My very limited access and previous SQL knowledge has eluded me and cannot fathom how to get the text box to show data based on the date selected?

I have two tables that are joined - called A and B. A has two fields, "PLACE" and "RAND" and is joined to B via field "RAND". Other than "RAND", B has several fields named 01 TOTAL, 02 TOTAL, 03 TOTAL, etc...for about 60 fields.
The "PLACE" field in table A has data that is 01, 02, 03, ect.... How do I structure a query so that whatever "PLACE" is, I can match the XX TOTAL value? In other words, i need to have the query field header be somehow dependent on the value in "PLACE".
Is this even possible?

Is there a way to verify the drive that an FE is opening from and then close if it is not where is should be?
I have a frontend that gets copied to each users C: drive by a .bat file. However, some just don't care about rules and proceedures and continue to open the frontend on the network drive. Since they map their drive to a specific letter drive for the BE that is where they are opening the FE from.
Thanks
Rich

Hi I have a form that I would like to check an MS database (.mdb) to verify the user exists in a field before allowing the form to go through. If the field doesn’t exist, is there a way to have the form redirect to a certain page? ..Also I noticed within the database, there are different categories within, does that make a difference with the coding?
Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you!
Form:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
function processForm(f) {
f._recipients.value = f.Email.value;
}
//]]>
</script>
</head>
<form action="formmail.asp" method="post">
<input name="_recipients" type="hidden" value="" />
<input name="_replyToField" type="hidden" value="email@email.com" />
<input name="_requiredFields" type="hidden" value="Name,Email" />
<input name="_fieldOrder" type="hidden" value="info1,info2" />
<input name="_subject" type="hidden" value="Your confirmation Email.." />
<input type="hidden" name="info1" value="Info...">
<input type="hidden" name="info2" value="Info 2...">
<input name="_redirect" type="hidden" value="post-enter.htm" />
<input name="Name" type="text" size="28" />
<input name="Email" type="text" size="28" />
<input class="button" type="submit" value="Submit" onclick="return processForm(this.form)" />
<input class="button" type="reset" value="Clear" /></th>
</body>

I am wanting to update data in one field which is being pulled in from another table based on an entry in another field in a form
Attached is the database. In the sales form I want to enter a customer ID which will then pull in the customer name from the customer table and put it in the Customer Field in the sales table.
I know I am duplicating the data by having customer name in both tables which is bad database design!

I am an absolute beginner and urgently need help with a validation rule. I need to know how to set a rule to set a minimum and maximum length for a text field record. I want minimum to be 4 and maximum to be 15 (I know I can set a max field size and set to not null but not sure how to make a minimum validation rule.
I am a teacher (not ICT!) having to cover for a sick colleague and students have asked me how to do this and although I am working my way through many of the great learning resources you link to here I have not yet worked out how to do this.
Would really appreciate any help you can give me so I can do my best by the kids.

I have my Assets form and the primary key is the ChargerID, in this form I have an "Add New Job For This Asset" button, which opens up the Jobs form at a new record.
How do I make it so that the ChargerID field is automatically filled with whatever the previous record was instead of being blank.
For example if I have Charger12345 open in the Asset form, I'd like to click the Add New Job button and it automatically have Charger12345 in the ChargerID field of the Jobs form.

I am making a very simple 'registration' database for a children's event in a couple of weeks.I the table/form there is a checkbox field called 'consent' which, if checked, indicates that a child can leave the event without parental consent.
There is a report printed on each child (a registration page which the leaders get a copy of). I would like on this report a 'red box' to appear if the child cannot leave without permission (i.e. the consent box is not checked). I would also like this 'red box' to appear on the form. I had thought of doing it this way - but I'm not sure if it's the best, or if it's possible:
Have a field in my table called 'consentindicator'. When the 'consent' box is checked, there is a period ('.') placed into the 'consentindicator' field. It is set to turn red when a period is present. That way, when the consent box is checked, a get a red 'box'.

When a part number is set up in our manufacturing software, the user clicks a check box to mark the part as purchased. I'm creating a similar form and want to have a check box display the same information. The manufacturing database stores the check box as Y when checked and N when not checked.
I tried 2 different ways to add code in the BeforeUpdate but neither is working.
First Example:
if Purchased = "Y" then check295 = True
else checkbox295 = False
Second Example
If Purchased = "Y" then check295 = -1
else checkbox295 = 0
What changes do I need to make to this code to get it to work? Thanks for your help,
Jeff

I have several related tables in my report, but need to add a calculation for several of the fields based on a date. The data includes a date as mm/dd/yyyy and then three additional fields with bonus payments, vacation hours and vacation payments. I want to be able to sum the bonus and vacation information by year. This is part of a much larger report that includes much information about specific employees over a three year period. The data I am trying to sum looks like this:
PPE Bonus_Pay Vac_Hrs Vac_Earn
1/10/09 1212.00 8 532
4/21/09 834.00 8 532
Similar entries for a three year period.I tried grouping but the result tripled the summed numbers.

I have a table that has been converted into a form for an input. Now suppose I have two columns. Say I enter value in first column. Now the second column is a lookup to a data from another table.
What I want is to see only those data in 2nd Column which have the value filled in Column 1. This is should be in run time mode. I fill in the value and then in the 2nd column I directly get to see only common values.

I have tried several ways to validate my data with existing table I've developed.
Actually, I want the access to validate the data (Cellphone number) I've entered in the textbox by looking it in the existing table. So, if the data is there in the table, the message will pop up such as.. "Please continue". But if not, the message should be "this number was not registered yet.." and the textbox will be empty and ready for the new number...

Hi,
I have a table that is used for project progress. One of the fields is named "Completed". I would like to know if it's possible to auto fill the data in the "completed" field based on three other fields within the same table.
ex: If field 1 = Yes, and field 2 = Yes, and filed 3 = Yes, then field "completed" = Yes
I'm open for any ideas, I'm new to access and am not sure how to get this started.
Thanks

Hi
I have a form which people fill in (made up of fields from Table1) to record when sick days.
On the form, they have to enter the "week commencing" (which is set at Medium Date format); then they have to enter in a first day (which is set at Short Date format).
The First Day should be no more than 7 days from the date that they enter in the Week commencing field on the form.
I want an error message to pop up if they do this, for example:
Week commencing: 1st April 2007
First Day: 10th April 2007
(because the 10th April 2007 is more than 7 days from the 1st April). But it would be ok if they did this:
Week commencing: 1st April 2007
First Day: 8th April 2007
Help???
thanks!

In the forms for my database, I require the user to input a month and year. Due to how the reports are structured, I need the format of the month and year to be very specific. I tried to set the format as 'mmmm yyyy' however even though it is visibly displayed as this, in the table, the values are still stored as sometimes 6/1/2011 or June 2011 and Jun 2011, which in Access' eyes are two different values.
In the report, it will display June multiple times because of this format discrepancy. I am trying to create a validation rule to ensure the user will enter the month and year in the correct format, but how to go about writing the expression.
