Forms :: How To Move Around From Record To Record Collecting Corresponding Data
Dec 24, 2014
The school director is going to input a date (by default today) and a subform will display all of the students who started before that date and haven't been closed as of that date. Next to each name, there will be 4 radio buttons (present, absent, holiday, hospitalized), which by default will be set to present. The director will go down the line, only needing to click when a student isn't present. At the end, she'll push a save button and the new records will be added.
My proposed method:
1. When the textbox with date input is changed, the subform (or just form and I put the textbox in the header?) will populate itself with a query based on student names whose corresponding startdate and enddate work with the inputted date.
2. The subform will be in continuous view so that it kinda looks like a data sheet but it has radio buttons rather than just spreadsheet cells.
3. When the save button is pushed, some visual basic code in the background will look at record 1, grab the student name and selected radio button value, and add a new record to the AttendanceRecords table with the name, attendance type, and date. Then the code will move to the 2nd record, rinse and repeat until it goes through all of them.
Questions/problems:
1. At its core, is this the Access way of doing something like this? Is there a simpler, more efficient, or generally smarter way of doing attendance?
2. How is step 3 going to work? I can look up how to add new records to a table, but I'm not sure how to move around from record to record collecting corresponding data.
3. Since the AttendanceRecord table uses studentID and typeID rather than actual names and actual attendance types, what's the easiest way of adding the new records with that data efficiently? I'm thinking of making the RecordSource of the subform some sort of linked up set of tables such that if I'm looking at record 1 and the name in the textbox on the subform is "Bob" I can just reference studentID in the background without needing anything on the form at all with studentID?

After I enter data into one field in a record I would like the form to save the record when I move to another field in the same record. It seems that the record is only saved when I exit it entirely. Is there a way to save a record when moving between fields in that record? Can this be done without using an Event Procedure for each field?

I'm trying to get a DB to move records simultaneously using a command button. The records are setup with check boxes for example: one column has a check box for 1 Year Ratio the next column has a check box for 2 Year Ratio and the third column has a check box for 3 Year Ratio.
How can i move the information out from 3 Year Ratio into another table and then move 2 Year Ratio check into 3 Year Ratio check box and 1 Year Ratio check into 2 Year Ratio check box by using a command button.

I have a subform that I use to scan in products using a barcode reader, when the item scans it moves to the quantity (Qty) field where I have this code:
Code:
Private Sub Qty_GotFocus()
Qty.Value = 1
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
txtOrderNo.SetFocus
End Sub
I am simply trying to set the Qty value to 1 and move onto the next record ready to scan another product in.

I have two subforms on a "Page"/Tabs. Subform #1 is a continuous form which accepts data about dimensions of a pattern piece. The other subform needs to update its information display each time the last control of the first subform loses focus, because it tells me how much material is required for all pieces of this pattern that are entered.
My first feeble attempt at this was to add the following code to the "Lost Focus" event of the final control on the first subform:
Form.Parent.Refresh
This succeeded in forcing the second subform to re-run its calculation.
However, after the recalculation took place, I wasn't able to move to the next record on the first subform. This subform is a continuous form, and I need to be able to add another row of data and then see the second subform change based on the additional information in the first subform.
Obviously I've done this wrong.

I have been searching all day for a solution. This is my first time using Access so a lot of this goes over my head. I'm currently running Access2010. I have a form that I am using for when people take office supplies and we can generate a cost per department. All of the Tables, Query and Reports are set up already and surprising work. My form fields are:
Date Created (automatic current date)
Quantity
Item Code (Combo Box that shows Item# and Item Description)
Initials
Department (Combo Box that shows Dept# and Dept Description)
RefCode
Remarks
I am trying to get it to where when I enter a new record it will autofill with all fields expect "Item Code" from the previous record until I change it.

Ok my problem is this......
I have a form with a field "Property Status" on it. It has 4 possible values -
"C - SHELTERED (with warden charge)";"H - SHELTERED (No warden charge)";"J - WHEELCHAIR SHELTERED (With warden charge)";"M - WHEELCHAIR SHELTERED (No warden charge)";"X - DISCONNECTED"
When the value "X - DISCONNECTED" is selected in the form I want the record to be removed from its existing table and sent to a new table which keeps all the "X - DISCONNECTED" records together.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. How would this be coded?

I am working on a project where I have data coming in from about 70 different sources across my state... but right now, they're all submitting their data in different ways (some through websites, some through databases, and some through excel spreadsheets they send monthly). As you can imagine, this is a nightmare for trying to get all of the data in one place to do some statistics on.
My question is this - if I were to set up an Access form where each client could fill in the blanks with the same information they've been submitting to all these other sources, could I send it out to them and have it all compile in one place? The last place I worked, we used Access to manage all of our on-site stuff, but we were all on the same network. Could it work the same way if everyone is spread across one state?

ok ive read some responses to people having trouble or need to know how to move a record from one table to another...
i have two tables. One with member and another with thier siblings.
i have two forms. one with the member details which contain a command box to open the other form for their siblings. the siblings form is a tabular form so when i double clikc the siblings form i can all the children but when i open it from a specific member only their children are shown.
each member has a memberID (primary key). but the siblings have the same ID as their father(member)
i have put a commmand box in the siblings form next to every sibling. what i want is that when i click this button the record moves to the members column.
i only know the very basics of VB...so a step by step explination would be helpful...
this is very specific and if more information is required please ask here or ask for my msn address.
Thank you in advance

I have a database which will contain sensitive data, but as part of that database there is a table which contains a case number (related the case table) and three different costs (Cost 1, Cost 2 & Cost 3), I would like to be able to use the email collection service in Access, to send our Finance guy the table, have him fill the costs for each case and send it back, without him having access to the rest of the db.
I have been trying to set this up but the html form the wizard outputs, is well... a form, only allowing one of each cost to be entered.Is there a way to bend the email function to my will or am I going to have to do it another way?

Say i have two tables
1 = computers (it holds info about the computers)
2 = Repair (this table holds only the PCs that are under repair)
I want to be able to move one computer record to Repairs table as soon as i select that "this pc is under repair" on a form. So it does not show up on my report of computers in hand and shows up on computers in repair.
and when i get the pc back from repair, i want to be able to select "back in stock" and it'll move the record back to Computers tables & removes tht record from repairs table
is there a way i can do this automatically (without manually move a record)?
Any suggestions - web links or examples will be much appreciated.
Thank you

I have a database where on the bottom I have kept the record navigation buttons. When I move to the next record is fine, but when it reaches the end and I press once more, it will create a new one. How can I avoid this?
I made a button special for that purpose to creat new record). I guess the best option will be not to show the record navigation and create buttons to go back and forward and avoid that the next press of the button will create new record.

I have the following code:
techid = Forms!Main!txtCurrentUserID
Task = 2
note = "Work Instructions"
strSQL = "SELECT *"
strSQL = strSQL & "FROM [tblTracking] "
strSQL = strSQL & "WHERE ([EmpID]=" & techid & ");"
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
[code]....
For whatever reason, this code will move to the last record that was entered in YESTERDAY, but I want it to move to the last record that was entered in TODAY. If I change the code to only records that are dated today, it claims there are no records (EOF), when there clearly are. why the code will not move to the last record of the table, it is only moving to the last record that was entered yesterday.

1) HOw can I move a record from one talbe to another when a specific drop-down option is selected. Example: a combo box with "Active"; "Pending"; "Closed" I want all closed recoreds in a table just for closed records to reduce clutter. They're not going to be referenced often if ever, we just want them so we have them if we do need them.
2) How can I prevent changes to the design of a form/query/report/etc.
