I am able to get the user name of the computer using a function. The function returns the user name in this format: first Name.last name. I wish to display only the first name ( the name before the dot. ) in a text box. I think I can use the len function. How to retrieve only the first name. I also wish to capitalize the first letter.

I have two Tables, "staff data" (staffID, name) and "issues log" (IssueID, StaffID, 20+ fields about individual Issues). StaffIDs are linked together so each employee can have multiple issues..I have (so far) Form1 containing individual Issues that can be filled in, or retrieved one at a time / scrolled through in IssueID order
What I want is a second form, containing a combobox with all StaffIDs (+ names) listed; when a StaffID is selected, a table is loaded containing all Issues for that employee. When any of these is selected, Form1 is loaded
I have created the second form, including the combo that contains both StaffIDs and Names. I can't yet grasp how to show the set of Issues applicable to that employee when I change that combo...If I could have the combo on Form.
I have a form with 20 identical subforms.
Is it possible to retrieve the tabindex from the active subform in the main form by using VBA?
MS Access 2007. I am trying to make a form.
Form2
Text0 = Textfield for ID
Text2 = Textfield for LName
Text3 = Textfield for FName
btnRet = Button for retrieve when ID is entered in Text0
btnUpdate = Button for saving the changes made in the textfields.
How can I search the ID from the Table I made? And when it was matched, get the details of that ID unto the designated text fields. It was like retrieving the data from the table with the ID typed in the text field from the form I made.
Then when it was retrieved, I can edit the fields and when I hit the Update button, the edited fields will replaced the original data.
Also after it was updated, a new record will be added in the history table that the ID was edited. Is is possible?
For now, i want to know how to retrieve the data with the ID and edit and save it after and update the table. Does it applies with the codes with the retrieve button and update button?
I'm working on a "Product Details" form somewhat similar to form in northwind, which the record source in "Products" table. what i'm trying to do is after clicking "save and new" command button to go to new record in form, i would like all text boxes to automatically retrieve the value from last saved record set as default value.
after google searching this subject i found the LastModified Syntax but i just don't understand whether i use it in VB or marco, or even how to implicate this. Should I make macro on each txtbox or should i create module? if i have to create either macro or module.
i want to see the product image in my database as per my selection from listbox in "frm_MainForm" but it shows error no 2220. database file is attached.
It does show the image when i add it to the form "frm_PruductMaster" and search in "frm_MainForm" but only until i restart application. after restarting application it again shows error 2220. But it shows image name in the error. (i have tried with .bmp and .jpg as well).

During filling a form, I generate a code which should include the ID of this record.
But the ID is not available before update of the form.
If I save the record before all fields mandatory are filled, i get an error of course.
How can I manage this and get the ID "earlier"?
I am working on a database for a Skip Delivery Company, I have all relevant tables and Forms done and can add customers and so on. I have a field name in my Skips Delivered table called Delivery Docket which contains a long list of customer dockets. What i want to do is, be able to retrieve all customer information (such as Customer Name, County, Location, Phone Number and so on ...) on my Skips Delivered form by just entering the docket number on that form. I'm thinking i need an SQL Statement somewhere?

When I attempt to use the me.field = me.combobox.column() method to retrieve info from another query,it only works if I use column 0 or 1... it doesn't work with higher columns number.
- field name: cbofi
- row source: listado-unico-fi <-- it is a query with unique values and 7 fields in total
- event procedure, change:
Private Sub cbofi_Change()
Me.txtDOCTPT = Me.cboFI.Column(1)
Me.campovia = Me.cboFI.Column(5)
End Sub
- txtDOCTPT is the field that indeed works
- campovia is the one that does not work
I tried using column(0) and column(1) and it worked fine... but higher column numbers do not work. Just mentioning because the field names are all right.

Hi,
I have secured my db with password. I want to know the technique/technology so that i can read my password. Access must be storing the password in an encrypted form in any password file. My idea is that if I know the file where its stored and in what form then I hope it can be retrieved.
I find so many available sites who claims that they have their product which is able to retrieve access db passowrd. I want to learn on how to do the same.
Any idea or suggestions is highly appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi,
I create the table1 in SQL Server and then link the table to MS Access using ODBC. But, when I write do this statement
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Select * from table1")
for i = 1 to rs.recordcount
msgbox rs.field(0)
next i
It only retrieve 1 record only, but the table have 10 records.
What's wrong with it?
I check rs.recordcount, it only loop one time.
Additionally,
it doesn't work this function in the ODBC link table
rs.addnew
rs.field(0) = "hello"
rs.update
And, when we use ODBC link tables,
we cannot delete data in the table.
currentdb.execute "delete * from table1"
it will give out error message, the table is read-only.
Please let me know about it, thanks.
Hi,
Suppose I have sharing drive, let's say "\server1sharefolderDatabasesdb1.mdb"

'Open connection to current Access database
Set db = CurrentDb()

when i paste the SQL into a query it works fine
I'm trying to build a form based on a query to use for data editing/entry purposes.
The only way I can think of to do this is to use a query to get data that is particular to my specified customer.
The first problem I have run into is that one query does not contain enough fields to retreive all the fields in my table.
I figure, perhaps I have made a flaw in my design and shouldn't go further with this until I verify it to be true. I don't think I've made a flaw, but the fact that a query has limited maximum number of fields leads me to think I might have.
Each record in the table I'm querying contains several pieces of numerical data that might be recorded during a service visit.
Obviously I could query the table twice but that doesn't feel like the right way to go about it.
Hi,
i have got a database which consists of table, queries, forms and reports.
I have one problem now is that I wan to do a query that will be able to bring the figure from another field to the current one.
ok say i have got Ref_No, Event_Date, Balance_BF, Adjustment, Balance.
so if say this is the first event for this particular ref_no (1234) it will bring the amount from another table (Principle_Table) linking the same ref_no (1234) to the Balance_BF fields,
If this is not the first event for this particular ref_no (1234) it will then bring the amount from the previous event Balance field to the current event Balance_BF field.
I am very lost how to do this. Is there a way doing this using query?
This is wat i mean
Ref No Event Date Balance_BFAdjustment Balance
06/00014 31-May-06 115140-5,757.00 $109,383.00
06/00014 31-Aug-06 109383-5,757.00 $103,626.00
06/00014 30-Nov-06 103626-5,757.00 $97,869.00
06/00014 28-Feb-07 97869-5,757.00 $92,112.00
U can see that the Balance_BF is actually brought down figure from the previous Balance starting from the second events. For the first event, the Balance_BF is actually draw down from another table (Principles_Table)
Is there a way to do this using query?
Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong here. I have just added a record to a table. I would now like to get the record number (FamilyID), which as an AutoNumber field, and pass it to another form. My query is giving me an error that says,
"A RunSQL action requires an argument consisting of an SQL statement."
Here is the code snippet:
DoCmd.RunSQL "SELECT FamilyID FROM Families WHERE LastName = '" & _
txtLast.Value & "';"
Thanks,
Lisa
P.S. No one ever replies to my posts. Please respond if you can help. :)
I have a query and using a [text string] as criteria in the Design Window - when the query runs, entering the appropriate search string retrieves the appropriate results. I have created a form using this query as the recordsource - and as such the user is asked for the string before the form loads and the results are displayed.
Is it possible to retrieve the string the user entered and display this value on the form?
Hello,
Please tell me if there is a way to retrieve a value from a field in the previous form record in a query that don't have ID (autonumber), using data/time ascending.The function PrevRecVal() from QrySampl can only be used for query that include ID.
Thanks
Thanks in advance
Searched birthday in threads and couldn't figure this out.
I have a select query and I am trying to retrieve a birthday that is between two dates.
This is how I set up my expressions:
chkBirthDay: Format([BirthDay],"m/d")
Criteria for chkBirthDay Between Format([LaneDate]-3,"m/d") And Format([LaneDate]+3,"m/d"
So if LaneDate = 9/7/2005 I should be able to retrieve all of the Birthdays that fall within 9/4 and 9/10. Correct?
I do retrieve records but they are dates such as 9/17/1921 and 9/18/1948 but of course they do not satisfy the criteria. There is a date in the table that does, 9/7/1981, but that record does not show up?
Any suggestions?
Hey Everybody,
I have 2 tables, one called [Addresses] and the other called [2006_Contacts]. The table [Addresses] has a number of various fields relating to contact data of people. The [2006_Contact] table has 2 fields [Last Name] and [First Name]. I want to run a query that pulls the contact data from the main [Addresses] table, but only if the contact name ([First Name] and [Last Name]) are present in the table [2006_Contacts].
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Chris C.

I have been working on a normalized db for the past few months and it works wonderfully. But now I need to find a way to create a form so that the rest of the company can update their data.
My Table has the 5 following fields. Also listed is an example of the types of data I have there

As you can see I have multiple StoreID's for one store, IN00001. My db goes up to IN00419 so it ends up displaying 29,664 records. There are 4 different categories (Japanese, Chinese, Local, and Other). Until now everything has been taken from a datasheet and put into an Update Query but now that other people have to quickly access the system I need a slick interface.
What I need is a way to have a form that can update the table and add new entries that looks like this in the form:
IN00001____2005________Jul__Aug__Sep__Nov__Dec__EC T.
Japanese MixPercentage__.01___.02__.01___.03__.01
Chinese Mix Percentage___.35___.25__.26___.33__.30
Local Mix Percentage_____.60___.70__.69___.62__.65
Other Mix Percentage_____.04___.03__.04___.02__.04
IN00001____2006________Jul__Aug__Sep__Nov__Dec__EC T.
Japanese MixPercentage__.01___.02__.01___.03__.01
Chinese Mix Percentage___.35___.25__.26___.33__.30
Local Mix Percentage_____.60___.70__.69___.62__.65
Other Mix Percentage_____.04___.03__.04___.02__.04
I hope this gives you a clearer picture. I need to be able to update 96 entries at a time (12months, 4 customer types, 2 years) but do it in an efficient manner. The table only has 5 fields so I need to figure out how to display multiple entries on the same form. I also need a way to add new entries. In other words for me to add another StoreID such as IN00420 then I would have to enter in a value for every field for 96 records in the table. When in reality I should only need to update the mix percentages since the months and years remain constant. HELP!!
Any help would be much appreciated. Due to the variable nature of the db I cannot establish very many one-to-one relationships. So therein lies another problem.
a form should open when a record in a listbox is double clicked.. the form doesnt open.. and when i open it independantly i am unable to edit any of the fields.the form is based on a multi table query.if anyone can suggest why it doesnt work i would be most grateful.2003 version on my webspace cos it didnt fit by 100k or something..
