I'm trying to build up a database for Multiple choice questions quiz in MS access 2010.My requirement are as follows
My quiz consist of 15 questions. Each questions carry some weightage. Suppose a question carries a weightage of 5 and there are two correct options like A & C. If user selects option A then he gets half marks.Multiple users can access the test at the same time.
Hi.
I am creating av quiz database, that are supposed to handle about 50 users.
It's about 50 questions, and the answers will be long, more than 255 signs.
I have som issues on how to go so far.
The quiz respondents will answer in a dap (or maybe Asp) web page on the intranet. The structure, shown below doestn seem right.
So far I got this:
tblQuiz
-------
quizID
Title
PassScore
introText
tblQuizPart
-----------
quizPartID
partName
sorting
quizID
tblQuizQuest
-------------
questionID
question
correctAnsw
maxPoints
sorting
quizPartID
tblQuizAnsw
--------------
answID
questionID
answer
username
timestamp
pointsGiven
sensured (yes/no)
======================
This is not a satisfying structure, but i'm not sure on where my mistake is.
Does anyone have a suggestion?
I'm making a project in VB, and I need it to link to a Database,I already know how to do this
the project is a bit like who wants to be a millionaire with all the questions in an access table,
I know I need the following fields;
the auto number
the question
Answer A
answer B
answer C
the problem is I need to be able to select which answer is correct ?
Is it possible to have a value in an excel 2010 cell be used to update an access 2010 db?
For example, if in a spreadsheet "test" cell A2=3 then in a db "test" a column "value" is 3. However, if the value in the spreadsheet changes so does the db.
I have a access 2010 split database and i need to modify one form on the front end (it is an accde file). However, when i open the Front end, i cannot find the possibility to go into the form design mode.
How do i need to do it? do i need to restart from the unsplit database?
The both the front end and the back end are password protected.
I currently write (very long) reports for work, which have a lot of standard text in them - but the standard text varies according to the client's history.
I want to create a report-writing application for myself, composed of series of yes/no/maybe buttons
and depending on whether I click yes/no/maybe in each section, a different segment of text is inserted into the report.
Ideally the application would be able to insert, or create, formatted text - such as headings, bullet point lists etc - I would need to be able to export this report into Word
I started out by making a table, with each section being a different field, and the various paragraph options as different cells in the field, but I am stuck at present on the basic functionality of "click button , insert text"...
Hi everyone -
I'm working with my band director to make a database within Access. It would be used to make quizzes for the various band classes that he teaches. Each quiz would pull different terms (that he would choose from a list) and put them into a Word document (most likely).
The quizzes are of the matching format. For example, the term "piano" would be in the left column, with the answer "play very softly" somewhere in the right column. In the database, we'd need fields for the term, the symbol (i.e. p, mp, mf, f), and the definition.
The idea behind making this database is this. In music, there are only so many terms for various concepts (for example, tempo markings). The students are quizzed on most pieces that they play. If there was a central list or database where the director could simply pick the terms that apply to that piece, and then print the quiz out to administer to the kids, it would save him a lot of time. Right now, he's making each quiz from scratch :eek: which takes waayyy too long.
Any ideas? I've never used Access before, but am very computer-savvy. If there are any templates that could be used, or if someone would be willing to design a template, or just point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks!
We have an older system that generates txt reports. I take these txt reports, then using Excel, I append the report headers to each record... creating a datatable. I then import this table to Access. I have not been able to figure out how to have Access perform this. In Excel, I use an "if" statement.
View 9 Replies View RelatedFrom a dropdown field in the form it's currently possible to choose a geographical region for which to generate a report. The data populating this dropdown is pulled in from a Value List as follows:
" ";"*";1;2;3;4;5;6;7;8;9;10;11;12;13;EU;WD
I now need the ability to choose various different regions simultaneously which is not possible with the current method. I've looked into a nested continuous form and a multi-select combo box or list box, but none of these are as user friendly as my preferred method.
What I would like is 15 checkboxes plus a 16th to select/unselect all. When any of these checkboxes is checked, I need to create something like a dynamic value string or temporary table to hold the list of chosen regions until the generate button is clicked at which point the data is used to generate the report and cleared. I also need a piece of code to check/uncheck all the boxes.
Hi,
I'm looking to make a touch typing quiz in access?
How should I go about this?

Hi all,
I've played a bit with MS Access 2003 the last week. I've made a form wich should contain information about stores (phone numbers, locations e.g.).
I'm trying to imagine myself (what could be a real) scenario, that way it's easier to give myself practice and tasks :)
As I'm new to MS Access, I'd like you to take a look at my forms. I want to know if there's better ways to do what I have done, and if I have done something wrong.
I also got a couple of questions;
Lets say I want to print one post by clicking on a button, is that hard to implement?
Is it possible to make a button, which exports the form to an .xls -file by clicking on it?
I did make these forms on a computer that had the resolution to 1280/1024, when I tried to open the form on a computer with 1024/768 resolution, the forms won't be displayed in the center of the screen :confused:
I think that's all.. Thanks! :)
Here's the access -file (http://www.home.no/f00b/stores.rar) (180kB) (use winrar to extract it)
I've tried to transalate to forms into english, sorry for the bad english :o

Connect an existing Access project to a different SQL Server database and the instructions are so simple however when I get to On the file tab click SERVER to open the Data Link Properties Dialogue, there isn't a SERVER option to click on.
My SQL server was on my local machine because I use Goldmine PE 9.2. I moved the SQL server to a different machine, I can connect to it, I can use it with Goldmine, all is well from my local machine except when ever I use my .accdb file, since the SQL server has been moved, I have to login with each request by the access file. This is sometimes six and seven times per session, waiting, error message, logging in, waiting, error message, logging in until it has all it needs to produce my required lists. It's mind numbing and I can't for the life of me find where I can reconnect to the SQL database so I don't have to do this so many times per session.
In Access 2010 32bit running windows 7 64bit. How do I find the datalink properties to connect my .accdb to a different sql database?
I have a query that has multiple IDs and different information in numerous fields. For example:
ID Field1 Field2 Field3
1 x
1 m
1 b
I need to find a way to concatenate the data so that it shows the information like this:
ID Field1 Field2 Field3
1 x m b
I'm working in Access 2010.
Yes I know this isn't the best way to set up a database, but I'm trying to make fixes to an already existing database that I can't go back and change the way it is set up. I can only find work arounds to accomplish what I need.
I am trying to create a columnar report that relies on information that are expressions in various queries. Unfortunately, I can't seem to create them in one query because the criteria is mutually exclusive. I used the report wizard to start the report based on the single expression in the first query. Now I want to start adding the other data but I can't seem to get it to work. All I really want to do is include fields that have the have the value, which is already summed, from the other query. When I try that I get error messages like "you tried to execute a query that does not include the specified expression 'expressionName' as part of an aggregate function' and it just goes further downhill from there. What is the easiest way to get this simple values into the report? Is there a way I can create a field in the report that uses a SQL statement for just that field so I don't have to have the report linking to 50 different queries?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a split db with tables in the back end and my forms, reports, code etc. in the front end.
I encrypted the back end with a password. That worked fine.
I deleted and relinked my tables to the encrypted back end. That worked fine as well.
I have a function that will disable the shift key bypass. If I run that in my front end db then I can't save it as an accde because I can't get to the HOME screen. If I save it as an accde first then I can't run my 'disable shift key bypass' function because I can't get to the modules!
How can I secure a split Access 2010 database so that the user cannot execute shift bypass on the front end or make any changes to the code?
