Forms :: Option To Create A New User Or Exit Database

May 20, 2015

I have a fully functioning login screen with a combo box for name and a password box. It also has an option to create a new user or exit the database. On my main form I want the employees to have to log out of the database as opposed to close it out. How would I go about this? Also I need tracking login and logout times for each employee.

Forms :: Create A Counter To Log How Many Times A User Login To Database

May 22, 2013

I have made a very simple log on form that requires the user to type in a user name and password. The user name and passwords are stored in a table. New users are added to this table to allow access to the database.

Is there a way I can add a counter to see how many times a particular user has logged onto the database?

Is there a way to make the password expire every 365 days requiring the user to reactivate their account and log in details.

Forms :: Option Group - Warn User When Neither Of 2 In Option Group Not Ticked?

Jul 25, 2013

I stumbled upon the Option Group function just yesterday and, happy as a clam, I created a group with 2 options in radio button style. I assigned the values to a field called Registration_Type as the 2 options are "Confirmed Registrants" and "Prospective Attendees".

[Great. That part works well. When I look at the table, a 1 or a 2 is in that field so it's great to know how to control accidental ticking of radio buttons (previous 450 records or so didn't have this option group functionality so one might easily tick one of the buttons. So one part of controlling option group I know I can handle via the table itself for now.]

The challenge is how to ensure the user always ticks one or the other ... I went back to the main table and tested the 'required entry' option for the Registration_Type field but forcing an action like this is not ideal in my mind. The usual error message vagueness for the average user is no good and I don't want to limit the user so much.

Is there a way to simply have a popup come up warning that neither radio button was ticked? Perhaps something linked to the form - i.e., maybe "after update"?? I only learned about attaching code to before and after update on controls a couple of days ago, so not sure if this would be best approach.

Just something to let the user know that nothing has been ticked in the option group as that controls in which of 2 reports the data will show up in so any record not ticked might mean a registrant being left out, which would be rather disastrous <g>.

How To Create Multi-user Database

Apr 12, 2013

I've read instructions for making a multi-user Access 2007 database. Summary is:

1) Split the database
2) Put back-end part of the split onto shared drive
3) Make copy of front-end of the split and give to each user of the database
4) Open Tools, Options, Advanced Tab. Set the default open mode to shared and the default record locking to edited record. While in options area, go to general tab and turn off compact on close and name autocorrect.

These instructions were posted by an Ms-Access MVP.My questions is about step 4. How do these settings get saved to the particular database that I am trying to make multi-user? None of these settings are in the Current Database Tab for Ms-Access 2007. Since they are in the general tab, does that mean all database I open with my copy of Ms-Access will take on these multi-user settings?

Forms :: Include Option In Combo Box To Create A New Item

Jun 20, 2013

I have a form with a combobox whose list items are taken from a table of currencies (called tblCurrencies)

Row Source = SELECT [tblCurrencies].[Ccy] FROM tblCurrencies ORDER BY [Ccy];

Problem is, there may come a time when the currency they want to select is not yet part of the tblCurrencies table, and needs to be added. For simplicity, I'd like to have an additional option in the dropdown (perhaps at the bottom) to specify a new currency.So an additional list item (e.g. 'Add New...') which when selected could prompt a subform where the user could specify the new currency (and any other relevant details specific to that currency) which can be programmatically added to tblCurrencies.how do I get that extra option into the list items for the combobox?...

User Input To Search Database And Create Report

Sep 9, 2004

I have a database that I created that uses a form to fill out information about server builds. I contains information about who built it, the IP address, server name, etc. I want to be able to create a dailog box that allows the user to input a server name to query the database and create a report based on that input. And if the user input isn't found in the database, a dialog box comes up with some sort of error message. I am still pretty new to Access, so the more detail you can give me the better. Thank a lot.

Forms :: Create Set Number Of Identical Records Based On User-defined Text Box

May 12, 2015

I'm trying to create a database for a construction company, as an experiment more than anything, and my problem is this:

I need to create a set of identical records in the table "buildings" based on the information entered into a text box by a user on the form for registering a new project. I want each record to be identical except for the "plot number" field, which I want to start at one and increase to the number of buildings defined in the text box.

"Projects" is one table and "Plots" is in the other.

Forms :: Create A Message Box To Flash On Screen To Tell User That Update Code Is Running

Mar 6, 2014

I need to create a message box or a form or something to flash on the screen to tell the user that a piece of "Update" code is running. the update code will be updated reports from marketing returns, but the 3 branches who use the information are separate so I am creating an update form to download and update the table.

The code for the update is already working, but can take a while, so I thought a message or splash screen would be useful as the update runs on start up.

It would have another use, I have a report which is made mainly of calculated fields on an onPrint event and also takes a while to work it out, so a similar screen would be more useful than my current spinning circle and blank screen.

Forms :: User Alerts For Call Log Database

Mar 12, 2013

I have a call log database that is used to log calls (Obviously), i have several users over a network and everything works great, but i have been asked to create an alert function that notifies the user when a new call is logged assigned to them by a different user, similar to outlook when a new email is received.

I was planning on having a timer even which checks for new calls every few mins or so and opens up a form to display the new calls which have not been dealt with i thought it was gonna be simple but i have come across a few problems.

1. verifying if a new call has been logged
2. displaying only new calls
3. only displaying alert once per new call

I have attached the database but have had to remove all information from the tables for security reasons.

Forms :: Text Box Value Changes To Zero On Exit?

Feb 3, 2014

I have a form with text boxes bound to a table. There are two fields, ProposedSalary and ProposedIncreasePercent, that should not be populated at the same time. It's either one or the other. I've tried to add a validation to the percent field to check if the salary field is empty or has value. That did not work for me and I removed the validation. Ever since, if I try to input a percent value into percent field, it changes to zero on exit. I think i might have tried to add that same validation to the form itself but i checked all the properties and I don't see anything. I've looked at the VBA code view and did not see ProposedIncreasePercent referenced anywhere. I created the document for the form through the document analyzer and searched for that field and couldn't find it. So, I can't find anything coded anywhere to change that field to zero but yet it does. I've also tried to remove the field and add it again and it does the same thing.

Exit Forms Without Saving

Jan 10, 2012

Below is the code for exiting without saving. It works perfectly fine. I just want to know if I can change the MSGBOX message to something like "Are you sure you want to exit without saving?" instead of its default message - "Are you sure you want to delete this record? and also, right now, if I click NO when I am asked if I want to delete this record, it exit the form rather than staying in the same form. But how do I make it to STAY in the same form if I click NO.

Code:
Private Sub Command24_Click()
On Error GoTo Command24_Click_Err
On Error Resume Next
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdUndo

[code]....

Forms :: Based On User Selection In A Form / Create New Records For Subsequent Form

Feb 3, 2014

The user will be creating a new project that contains a bunch of releases. The releases have standard names which are stored in a table tbl_ReleaseNames It should be noted that the list of names is not static.

The user selects which of the releases pertains to their project and then based on their selections, new records would be created in tbl_RFP_Release and then a subsequent form would open where it would display each of these newly created releases where they could enter additional information. I thought of creating an unbound checkbox associated with each of the standard names, and then checking to see if the checkbox was checked and then creating the new records followed by opening up the new form.

What I would like to do is, give the end-users the option to type in the file location and click a button to copy there files from their project folder directly to the archive directory on the server.

Would this be fairly easy to do or would it require the assitance of a access database programmer? Thanks for any help.
