Currently I have created a data base and form. I am at a point where I need to copy data from one record specific field to a different field in the new record all while creating a new record.

I have a form with 2 subforms, each based on their own table. One displays categories of invoices (e.g. rent, electricity, etc.) including some details like monthly costs.
I would like users to be able to select one of those categories and copy this to another table, after which they can enter on what date the invoice was paid, to make a history of payments.
At first I based fields in the history table on fields in the categories table so that you could simply pick a category from a combobox. I had an after update event on that combobox that also automatically set the 'costs' combobox to the matching price.
Worked fine, but had one snag: if I update the costs of a category in the categories table (e.g. the rent goes up) then all the costs in the history table was also updated because the fields got their info from that table.
So now I no longer have field from the history table based on the other table, and want to use 'set value' to copy values from one table to the other. I'd like the user to be able to somehow select a category with a single click on a button, and getting the info for that category copied. However, how can I get access to know from which record I want the fields copied?
Or is there a completely different way to get a history of payments that works much better?
I would like my users to be able to view stock items in one (sub)form and when they double click on an item, then certain data is copied to an orders (sub)form.
I have therefore embedded two unbound subforms into a master form.
The master form (Frm Stock) has no fields, but it has 2 subforms.
Frm_Stock_Subform and Frm_OrderDetail_Subform
So I have 2 problems here.
Problem 1:I would like the following code trigger when the user double clicks anywhere on the record that the user wants to order.Thus far, I can only make it fire only when the user doubl;es clicks in a specific field (in this case, the ID field is the trigger)
Problem 2:I cannot activate the Frm_OrderDetail_Subform in order to create the new record. (I have looked at this link - Refer to form and subform
Code:
Private Sub ID_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
On Error GoTo Err_ID_DblClick
Dim MyOrderID As Variant
Dim MyStockID As Variant
Dim MyAmt As Variant

I have a simple data entry form on which there are about 30 to 40 data fields to be update by users. One of the field is called "Stage" which is a combo box with 2 entries "Formal Case" and "Informal Case" with no default value whien a form is first opened.
Users will normally create a data entry which updates the table and save.
However if in future users open any one existing record and try to change Stage field from Informal to Formal or vice a versa I would then like this action to
1) update a time stamp concatinated with the stage change value in a text field perhaps
2) save/close the form
3) open a new form with all the existing entries(plus changed status of "Stage Field") with a new record ID and new time stamp.
Hi
I need to copy some data from last record to next(New record), when a user clicks a button on a form. I don't want to copy all the data.
An example would be booking in items from an invoice:
Company would be the same
Invoice number would be the same
Product code would be different
quantity would be different
Hope this makes some sence, and i'm not being stupid:rolleyes:

I have the employee data record... I want copy of the same record to insert in table but with different employee id and Site through forms. StaffNo is the primary key.
For example
existing record
StaffNo, Site, Name, hiring date, etc
AKA-111, 10, John, 25-10-13
new record
StaffNo, Site, Name, hiring date, etc
ALM-123, 14, John, 25-10-13
I have a main form that has some sub forms on it linked by master child on PK. When I select a new record on the sub forms I want to take a date value from the main form and populate the value into a field in the sub form. How do I do this as I cannot see a new record event on the sub form?
help would be much appreciated.
regards
Peter
I have fields on a form for the Date, the Start time and the Finish time. These won't change for the next 120 records. So, upon opening a new record, I'd like the Date and times to appear there already. But here is the crux: After about 120 entries, the date and Time changes, for the next 120 entries. So, once the 'batch' is finished, or I close access, the values do not need to be remembered until I enter a new record.
I copied something like the following from a book and tried running it with various modifications, just for the Date to start with, but no luck. (It did strike me as too simple for something, clearly, as unbelievably TRICKY as my problem...) I did find quite a few posts on this here but none seemed to work for me, or made sense to me in the slightest. (I did mention that I'm a complete rookie, didn't I?)
Private Sub Acquired_date_AfterUpdate()
Me!Acquired_date.DefaultValue = "'" & Me!Acquired_date.Value & "'"
End Sub
I found and pasted some code which copies records from the previous record on the form. Seems to work well, but I was wondering if there is an issue with the copying of the first field which is a combo box?

There is a field called NoOfPays . If this field value is 2 in the first record then I want it to insert a second record as shown above. How do I do it. I tried to append but it is not working.
Now copying the record with the maxID is not correct.
Let's say, I'm updating a record, and I have a combo-box that says transfer and another combo-box that states "where to?" - or words to those effect.
Each record has a field for credit value and a field for debit value.
When I've finished entering the current record, I want to run code that fires the event, so, copies all the data from one record, to create a new record, BUT...
1) changes the "where to" from the old record to "From" in the new record.
2) changes either the credit or debit value, to the opposite in the new record?
I would like to do this from a sub-form. I can copy a whole record, no problem, but can't seem to change field values.
I've rebooted my copy record button and just used the macro wizard for now, it seems to work as far as I can tell but there is something strange about it.
I've added in some text boxes so I've got some confirmation, but when I click this copy button I get the following error;
"The command or action 'RecordsGoToNew' isn't available now."
I have a form that i input information into. I have a combo box labeled Addendum, you can select "yes" or "no". What i would like to do is if user selects "yes" then a new record needs to be copied with exact information form original, with the excpetion of a field labeled "tape review #" 1403310000 for example. "-AD" needs to be added to this new record after the review number. Also the field "tape review #" is indexed not to allow duplicate numbers.

We use MS Access 2007.
I have a single table / single form on the form we are entering amounts in two fields
Split Net Values
Total Net Value
We then have a further two fields
Split Gross Value - which is a calculated field based on Split Net Value plus 20%
Total Gross Value - which is a calculated field based on
Total Net Value plus 20%
I have a further two fields
Actual Split Gross Value
Actual Gross Value
I need to copy the Split Gross Value into the Actual Split Gross Value but still be able to amend the figure.
Also need to copy the Total Gross Value to the Actual Gross Value and yet again be able to amend the figure.
I've got a database for safety accidents/incidents. I've a table for incidents and another for employers with fields:
tablename:tblEmployers, formname:frmEmployers
EmpID
FullName
EmploymentDate
BirthDate
In the Incidents form, i've a button which loads the frmEmployers with datasheet view.
Is it possible, by clicking/dbclicking on specific employer, his data (empid, fullname, etc) to autofill/copy to the same fields in form of incidents and save the record?
I've tried with combobox selection(Employers fullname) and autofield, but record didn't save the autofill data.
I have an access form that needs filling in daily by various people.
It's to document changes to a website and I currently have a combobox box set up for the various sections to state whether they are AMENDS, REVERTS or NO CHANGE.
I have set conditional formatting to then highlight these sections but am also trying to get it to work so that if the user chooses "NO CHANGE" then the data for that field copies over from the previous record.
I have set this up in the AfterUpdate code for the combobox, but nothing is happening, not even an error....
Code:
Private Sub COMBOBOX1_AfterUpdate()
If Me.COMBOBOX1 = 3 Then
Me.[FIELD_TO_CHANGE] = DLookup("[FIELD_TO_CHANGE]", "tb_TABLE", "[ID]=Forms![form_FORM]![ID]-1")
End If
End Sub
(Where 3 is the value of NO CHANGE in the combobox, and FIELD_TO_CHANGE, tb_TABLE and form_FORM being the names of the various elements)...
We have been trying to copy data from a combo box to a field without any success.

I have a data entry formA which has a number of combo boxes and date and time fields. In some cases the user will have to enter data into formB where many of the fields are repeated. I've created a button in formA which opens formB, I'd like this button to autopopulate some fields from formA as well.
These forms feed data to 2 different tables in the database. I've tried using
formB![fieldname]=Me![fieldname]
with no success. I'm using Access 2010
I created an unbound text box on a form that automatically pulls the current logged in user by using this:
Private Sub Txtuser_Click()
Me.Txtuser = Environ("Username")
The form grabbs the logged in user with no problems, however, I ultimately want this information to also end up in my table. So the form has three boxes (to keep it simple). The user will type their first name and last name manually on the form which the record source is this "table" where their name goes to the table last name =Field 1 and first name=Field 2 respectively. I want the unbound box from the form to place the logged in user in Field 3 for the current record.
I am tasked with creating a scientific database of fish catches at various different sampling stations. I envisage the entry form having hierarchy levels, ie year, season, date, sample station, species caught, and then the specific associated data with each species (weight, abundance, length etc) will form each distinct record.
In each year there are 2 sampling seasons. In each sampling season there are up to 20 dates on which samples are taken. On each date there are up to 50 sample stations recorded. And at each station up to 20 species can be recorded.
In order to enter each species caught in a survey, the end user will potentially have to fill the season box with an entry 40,000 times. For each season there will be 20,000 date entries to be made. For each date, 1,000 station code entries, and 20 species entries for each station. What I would like to happen is this.
When the end user is entering the data, he or she will be working through the hierarchy from the ground up. Ie., they will enter a particular species' data (abundance, weight, length etc) at a particular station on a particular date during a particular sampling season. The next entry will be a different species at the same station on the same date during the same season. I would like the duplicated information from the previous record to be copied across onto the new one so that all the end user has to do is enter the species name, abundance weight and length data.
Once they have finished entering all the species data for that particular site, they can move onto the next site which they would fill in the data themselves for the station code. So, in the hierarchy, the first button would copy all the previous data except the species name and associated weight length abundance data. The next button would do the same, except leave the station code blank. The next button would leave the species name, station code and date blank. And so on up the hierarchy. The end user would be able to selectively choose which data is copied over by using these buttons, saving lots of potential extra work doing repetitive entries.
I have an unbound subform within a main form that i add data to.
Once I click save to save all the data the subform data will save itself into tblPerson and the main form data will save itself in tblSupplier.
The tblPerson will have an autonumber for the whole record, i need this autonumber to save in tblSupplier, only this autonumber.
I have a continuous form that has 5 columns of data per line and it also has a 6th column that I can enter data into. What I want to be able to do is if I enter data into the 6th column it will copy that record except the 5th column to a report.
I have tried searching this forum and other but not quite sure of the terminology so not getting good results.
