I have a database and on the main table one of the columns is "Status". The values in that column can be either "Worked, Unworked, or Overdue".
I would like to be able to create a form so that the user can run a query and select which Status' they want to see. For example maybe they only want to see Unworked and Overdue so they can select those and run the query.
I wanted to create a form where you can select multiple values from the table "years" and on a button it would open a query displaying all the records in "students" in those years selected.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to improve a work process using an existing Access DB.We have a form with multiple texts boxes on it. I need to search through these boxes to determine the total number of occurrences of a specific value. This is not tied to a table.
The text boxes I'd be searching through all have related names: "Element0" to "Element40". And I'd most likely be looking for a "/" within the value in the boxes (value could be 12345/01, for example).Would then be using the result in VBA to apply some conditions, so I would prefer if I could do the count in VBA (the count/sum is the part that is hanging me up.)
I've found multiple ways to accomplish this from a table, but nothing for what I have to work with.I am unclear in my description of what I am trying to do, let me know and I will try to provide more information.
Hi there. What I'm attempting to do is pass multiple values from a multiple selection list box as criteria for an Append Query. Is there any way to do this? The DB keeps track of Real Estate boards and the forms that they use, I would like to be able to select all the boards in a given state/province, but have the ability to deselect some within that province if I don't need them in the query (this is the criteria i'm trying to pass). I don't need to use a list box, any control that would allow me to pass multiple values would be great. Anyone able to help? Thanks very much.
View 1 Replies View RelatedCurrently we track areas of non-conformance for a fleet of flight simulators. Each flight simulator has a particular ID number. In some instance an area of non-conformance is associated with a single simulator, at other times it is a fleet wide issue and applies to all or some simulators. In order to track as well as advise leadership and the contractor responsible for maintenance of the simulators of the situation we generate individual response letters.
In order to track each instance of non-conformance my idea was to create a new record for each deficiency. In the event that it is applicable to multiple simulators I would like to fill out the form with all pertinent data and then place a checkbox associated with each simulator and when the record is saved, it creates one record for each simulator with a checkbox ticked.
Once the deficiency on each simulator is fixed, I would check a box for a field called rescinded, which would remove that particular deficiency on that particular simulator from the active list of deficiencies but the others would still remain because they are associated with unique records.
I need to enter workload counts for 10 people, and it is done on a monthly basis. So I have a table of Months (Jan-Dec), a table of names, and a joined table with the months, names and a field for the workload counts.
I would like to make a form where I could select the month and all the names show up so I could go and enter the counts for everyone at the same time. I've attached a diagram to show what it would look like
I have a database in Microsoft access 2010. The database has a table that stores prospective customer records, and a form that is used to input a search criteria(s) via textboxes, which then queries prospective customers table and returns the records that contain the inputted search criteria(s).
An Example of Textboxes values on the search criteria form:
Textbox - name: bob
Textbox - address: Left blank
Textbox - category: car,boat,truck
I Have tried creating a query with the following
field: name
criteria: like “*” & name & “*”
field: address
criteria: like “*” & address & “*”
field: category
criteria: like “*” & category & “*”
SQL code:
SELECT customerName ,address,category
FROM prospectiveCustomers
WHERE customerName LIKE “*” & name & “*” AND address LIKE “*” & address& “*” AND category LIKE “*” & category& “*”;
That works, but only for one value in a textbox. Once there is more than one value in a textbox (e.g name: bob,smith), the query returns no records.
I have also tried splitting the values using the comma as a delimmter, then inserting the values into a new table. That is fine until one of the search criteria textboxes has been left blank. So the query I created will run, but returns no records.
SQL CODE:
SELECT prospectiveCustomers.name, prospectiveCustomers.address,prospectiveCustomers. category
FROM prospectiveCustomers, [SearchCriteria-name], [SearchCriteria-address],[SearchCriteria-category]
WHERE prospectiveCustomers.name Like [SearchCriteria-name].name AND prospectiveCustomers.address LIKE [SearchCriteria-address].address AND prospectiveCustomers.category LIKE [SearchCriteria-address].category;
In my database (attached), I need to be able to store multiple notes for tasks performed in various cities -- each note has a small description (more on that at the bottom of this post). For the "San Antonio, TX" task, notes "Heartbleed" and "BAT Scan" apply. From what I understand, this is a many-to-many relationship which will require the use of a junction box. My structure is like this:
tbTasks
TaskID (PK - autonumber)
Task
tbNotes
NotesID (PK - autonumber)
Notes
Details
jcttbTaskNotes
TaskID (FK from tbTasks)
NotesID ( FK from tbNotes)
My mainform (fmTasks) is based off the tbTasks table; my subform (subfmTaskNotes -- continous form) is based off the jcttbTaskNotes junction table. The Master/Child link for the subform control is TaskID. In the subform I have a combo box bound to the NotesID field in the junction table that allows me to choose a note.
My problem: I also have a "Details" text box in the subform that I want to be populated with the description of the Note selected in the combobox mentioned above. For example: if I choose the "Heartbleed" note, then I want that "Details" field to be populated with "Mitigate vulnerability associated with CVE-2014-0160". I assume it has to be somehow tied to the "Details" field of the tbNotes table, but how to implement that. How do I get the Details text box to display the details for each note?
I am having some difficulty putting togather a small database (attached).
Basically I want to be able to search for mutiple words and get the results
There are 3 main columns in the main table
1) Shop
2) Part Number
3) Part Type
Problem 1:I have created a lookup table (with check boxes) for ComboBoxes in a form but I do not know how to connect it so that when I click on the comobo box it gives me the all different (Shop numbers/part number/Part types) to select from.
Problem 2:Once I have made my selection I want to search and run query to show me the results. I know that once multiple items are selected in a combo box they are separated by commas/space, so the search must take that in account.
Other nice to have
1) If Shop 1 is selected then only the parts which were sold from shop 1 to appear in the Part number Box & visavera & same goes for Part type.
2) Ability to do a wildcard search so if I Enter "A" in part number I can see all the resealts
I have a form that a user will use to search records. Upon selecting a record, there are three buttons that allows the user to look at more detailed information. This information will be on the many side of the relationship. So I will have multiple values. The called form is just a popup form that I use for several other instances, like displaying memo fields from other tables.
The problem I am having is that only one record shows up at a time on the called form. I have read through the postings and have changed the properties for Default View, Filter on Load, Data Entry, etc. Nothing seems to change the outcome. I have run the query in SQL view and have no issues. It returns the correct records and multiple rows when expecting. Why they don't show up on the form. There are no errors, just the first record from the many side of the relationship shows up in the form. I would like all records to show up, just like when I run the query.
Code:

The purpose of my database is to keep a record of training activities undertaken by staff. There is therefore a multiple form which displays, for a specified worker, the list of all the required activities. Each line has a button which opens another form to allow an activity to be started (together with start date and other info). The main tables are Worker, Activities, and a junction table Worker2Activities. On closing the second form and refreshing the first one, the started activity is correctly recorded, but on as many lines as there are staff on the course. To make matters worse, these also appear when i then select another worker (and if i create another worker, the number of lines goes up by one for all of them). The Worker2Activities table correctly show one new record created
View 3 Replies View Relatedhow I can set multiple default values in a ComboBox in a form. The ComboBox is based on a table and my main table also uses the ComboBox.
Example:
Main table has a column "Brands". The ComboBox is based on another table which includes the following items (and thus the ComboBox also shows them):
- CocaCola
- Fanta
- Sprite
The form has the same ComboBox which is linked to the main table.
Now, if a user creates a new form entry, all ComboBox items should be preselected (checked). It does work with one item over the standard "Default" property.
I have created a database that has both English and French forms feeding information into the same table. I'm not concerned if the info stored in the table is stored in French or in English. It all works fine other then the drop down boxes in the forms, here I only seem to be able to either have the English or the French options visible on both the English and the French form. Is there a way to have the English options on the English form and the French options on the French form, both feeding the results into the same field in the table.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a form and subform. I need to -
1) show the number of records in the subform on the main form
2) count the number of records in the subform where a value [Public] is True
3) count the number of records in the subform where another value [Analyst] is True.
I can achieve the first two by using the following VBA on the Main form current event -

Private Sub Form_Current()
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Dim lngCount As Long

when i try to get number 3 done I get the same value as for [Public] (using lngCount for both...not surprising really!)
how i can get a count done for [Analyst] = True in the same event?
I have created a form that contains data from two tables. Each drop down on the form, for each table, contains multipl values. I want to be able to make multiple selections from each down (usually this is holding down the ctrl key and making multiple selections). However; this method does not work in Access. Is there a way to select multiple values at one time in Access similar to holding down the ctrl key?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am designing a book collection database where each book can contain multiple authors. I used three tables; tblBooks, tblAuthors, tblBookAuthorJOIN. The tblBookAuthorJOIN allows me to create a subform with drop down combo boxes in the Books form linking multiple authors to each books indexed field. The Author table contains the usual FirstName, LastName, MiddleName fields. I would to be able to display the names of each author in the forms header but I am having difficulty.
For example a book may have two authors such as:
Authors table would contain values such as
Last Name: Grisham
First Name: John
Last Name: Twain
First Name: Mark
Textbox in header would display: John Grisham; Mark Twain
The authors would be displayed in the following format in the same order as listed in the subform datasheet.

I have a search form that has 8 criteria fields, of which the user can fill (from combo boxes and txt boxes) any number of them to narrow or widen the search.This by the way works perfectly. What I want to have is a message box pop up if the user does not enter any criteria and click search.
I tried stringing multiple if isnull statements together but realised that because I have an onload function that sets all fields to "" the isnull function won't work, so have changed this to the Len function.But when I run it, it just skips straight past the len line and opens the search detail form regardless. I suspect I have the order of things wrong, as it does not throw up any errors when run.

Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.PCNumberIn.Value = ""
Me.SerialNumberIn.Value = ""
Me.DeviceTypeIn.Value = ""

Hi,
how could i get multiple values shown in 1 form only? i currently have a code to look through 6 fields and if the fields iar blank, you get a a message box. you press ok and the next message is shown for the next field if it is blank but it would be so much better to have 1 message box showing all blank fields required to be filled in.
all it does is check the fields as these are required before continuing. if anyof the fields are blank, then it tells you and you cannot continue untl they are all filled. it seems easy in my head!!
im sure this can be done but im not quite sure how.
any ideas would be greatly received.

I have a multiple column combo box on my form, that is correctly populating. When I make a selection, it displays the result from the first column. Bound column seems correct, as my table is being populated correctly.
1 - Can I display the values from both columns after the selection has been made?
2 - If not, can I choose to display the second column (not the first) after the user has made a selection?
I have a form where the user will choose a contact name or names from a multivalue combobox and I want the email address field to update with the corresponding emails separated by "; ".
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a table in which there are approximately 15k records. The name field has approximately 2500 unique values.

Hello,
I am making a database and I am currently doing my forms. I have been using wizards and so far everything I have wanted to be able to do has been achievable, except for where I am now! I am making a 'purchases' form. What I want to be able to do is make multiple purchases in the one form. Let me try and give you an example to further explain myself.
Lets say Mr John Smith wants to purchase 1 black pen, 1 30cm ruler, 2 rubbers and a compass.
I want it so that rather than have to add each one of the purchases one by one, I want to be able to add them all in the same time and be able to go back to my purchases table and see:
Mr John Smith - 1 black pen
Mr John Smith - 1 30cm Ruler
Mr John Smith - 3 rubbers
etc
Hopefully you understand what I mean?
Can anyone assist me?
Most appreciated!

I can't understant whats wrong....
I am fairly new to Access and have no formal training on this program, just a lot of trial and error. I have a database with 4 tables. They are tblEmployees, tblCourses, tblDates, and tblTraining. The key for each was an autonumber that is EMPLOYEEID, COURSEID, DATEID, and TRAININGID.
tblEmployee lists pertinent information regarding an employee (name, serial #, shift, etc). tblCourse lists all courses that are available for an employee (course name, #hours, required attendees, type of training, etc).
tblDates lists all available class dates and times for the courses in tblCourses and has a lookup field for COURSEID and COURSETITLE from tblCourses.
tblTraining lists all the training scheduled for and completed by an employee and has a lookup/relationship with tblEmployees for EMPLOYEEID and EMPLOYEENAME.
It also has a lookup/relationship field with tblCourses for COURSEID and COURSETITLE. Finally, it has a lookup/relationship with tblDates with lookup field/relationship with DATEID and CLASSDATE. I have successfully created a form where the training can be added to an employee (frmTrainingUpdated) and it has a subform (frmTraining) with all classes for that employee in a multilist at the bottom (from a query of tblTraining). The subform also has a field for whether the training was completed and then the hours are credited to the employee (txtCredit).
The problem comes when I try to add all of the credited hours for a single employee in a separate field. I am trying to create a field somewhere on the form that will total all of the hours for all of the completed classes for the one employee on the form. I have tried to list the data for the textbox as =DSUM([txtCredit], tblTraining, WHERE (EMPLOYEE=Me.Employee)) and only get an error message displayed in the textbox. I tried to do a totals SUM on the query and it only gives me the individual hours for each class on the same line for that record.
modify the code below to Show the LocationName in the Schema Column instead of the MPID? I attached a pic showing the relationship between the two tables which contain the data I'm trying to query.

FROM [Locations Query] INNER JOIN Qry_MPLoc ON [Locations Query].[LocID] = Qry_MPLoc.[LocID];
I have a data base with names, email IDs, phone numbers of 5 types(example quality, security, IT,finance etc) of person from ten different project teams. I created a basic form for the end user to enter values and created fields for each of the person's name, email ID etc based on the personal type( liek quality, IT, finance etc) on each team. The background table contains records of almost 200 people now.
All of these people will be trained for one task and some will be trained for multiple tasks. I know how to make the combo box allow multiple values/selections but, i cannot list out all 200 personal names in the combobox's rowsource/value list. Is it possible to combine all different name fields and list out all personal(of one team), so that the end user can just select multiple names for that team who have been trained and so on. i need to set the rowsource of the combobox to the values of all personal from one team so the team leader can just go select who has been trained and who has not.
