Forms :: Populating A Null Field
Jun 26, 2014
I have an address box that I would like to auto populate with a double click event. Basically, if the location address is the same as the main company address, and there isn't any data already in the location field, then I would like the user to be able to just double click the location address and the field gets automatically populated with the main company address.
Private Sub Address_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
If IsNull(Me.Address) Then
Me!Address = Me.CompanyName.Column(1)
End If
So this works fine if the main company address actually has an address in it. But if it doesn't then double clicking the location address produces a run time error 3315 for trying to populate a null value.

I've been trying to populate a field in a form with information, but only if the field is blank.
What I am trying to do is this.
I have a continuous form displaying all of our principals, however when our principals are on leave I want to populate the field with the "acting principal". I have set it up so the field grabs the acting principal first but it is blank for several schools. For these schools where there there is no "acting principal" I want it to grab the substantive principal automatically and populate the field.
I have tried Is Null, Is Not Null, NZ, IF, Where and Then statements but to no avail.

I have 2 forms. Information from one field links both forms (though it is not the primary key). Using a "open form" button I want the field on the second form to be populated with the contents from the same field on the first form, when a user selects the open form button. I imagine all of this is very doable in SQL, however I am using Access GUI to construct my database and have no time to learn SQL at this stage. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I have a Pupils database where I have a form with Pupil name and ID.I have a query with a calculated field and the ID and this works great.
I can display the associated calc on the form using a sub-form (I link the ID in the calc to the ID on the form) but I dont know how to get this value to display in a listbox.

I have a combo box [Description] populated with items and a corresponding cost in [PriceRetail] within the same table. I require the price to be added into the price field once the item is chosen in the Description pull down. This is what i have, but the price field never populates.
---------------
Private Sub Description_AfterUpdate()
Me.Price = Me.Description.Column(3)
End Sub
---------------
The source table has 4 records in this order; ID, Category, Description, PriceRetail

In the Contacts Table there are two fields, the unique Contact ID key field numeric and the Contact Name. Like this:
Contact_ID; Name
1; Tom
2; Dick
3; Harry
In a form named "Selection" there is a Combo box that references the Contact table, and lists just the three names in the drop down (showing the Contact_ID is optional - I'm fine either way):
Tom
Dick
Harry
When the selection is made it will populate the field Contact_Ref the table called SelectedName.
Question: When the user selects the name I'd like the data populated in the SelectedName table to be the Contact_ID Value, and not the Name, so if Harry is selected the Value "3" would be saved.

I think the title pretty much sums it up....
I have a query where data is first sorted by user input; first field's criteria: [fieldname], then by another field's criteria: Is Null.
I know there are records containing null values in the second field, as I have run a select query with the criteria: Like "*", to make sure they are null, and not zero-length-strings.
The query is refusing to return any results...
Any ideas?

I have a form that runs a search query.
I have an error trap set on a date field.
If (DataErr = 2113) Then
Select Case Screen.ActiveControl.Name
Case "DA_Start"
MsgBox "invalid date", vbExclamation
Me.DA_Start. = Null
End Select
Response = acDataErrContinue
End If
End Sub
This will pop up the error message, but will trigger the debuger when gettin to "Me.DA_Start = Null"

I have a form with a subform. The subform is used to report a sales total, for today and for the month. When there are no sales today (a null result in one of the fields) the entire subform goes blank.
How can I make it report a zero in the field instead of blanking the entire subform?

I have a SQL Server 2005 backend table with a varchar(1) field which allows nulls. The field is populated from a combo box in Access 2012. The field can be set to 1,2 or 3 via the combo box or left blank in which case its value will be null. Sometimes I need to reset this field to null. How can I do this via a combo box? I know I could just set this to an empty string but this would mean re-writing a load of queries which a looking for a number or null.
Something like 1;"First";2;"Second";3;"Third";Null;"Blank"

I have a form called PAF_Assignment and on this form there are many textboxes for editing. After all fields are entered, the user clicks on a button and this button populates the PAF_Issued_Date field with the actual date.
Then I want to disable (enable=False) all fields on this form once there is a date on PAF_Issued_Date as I don't want any user to make any changes after submitting it, although the user would still be able to read the information submitted.
I have tried the following...
PAF_Assignment Form AfterUpdate Event
If Me.PAF_Issued_Date=Not null Then
Me.FieldName1.Enabled=False
Me.FieldName2.Enabled=False
Me.FieldName3.Enabled=False
[Code] ......
However this is not working, there is no error message or anything but the fields remain enabled with the date...

I have a multi-select listbox (called PotentialItems) which behaves perfectly unless one of the fields has a null value in it, in which case I get an error 13, "Type mismatch" in the following code. It is valid business-wise for column 9 to be null.
Code:
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim dblTargetPrice As Double
With Me.PotentialItems
For Each varItem In .ItemsSelected
If Not IsNull(varItem) Then
dblTargetPrice = Nz(.Column(9, varItem), 0) '<----- Error here
End If
Next
End With

I have a subform with continuous records. One of the fields in the recordset of the subform is a field named "Remarks". This field does not need to be visible on the continuous subform as it is rare that this field will have any entries.
I plan to apply conditional formatting on another field (IDcardNo) in the record line of the continuous subform so that when field "Remarks" contains any data it will show as a different format on the field IDcardNo.
I would like to make a small form appear when one points to the IDcardNo field with the different format, so that the data in the field "Remarks" pops up when one points to the field IDcardNo with altered format, showing that there is data in the field "Remarks".

What is wrong with this query?
=IIf(IsNull([OffPeakDay],IIf(IsNull([OffPeakHour],Sum([Import]-[Export]),0)))
What I want is to sum the field (Import minus Export which are numeric) on the form if the OffPeakDay AND OffPeakHour fields are null.

I (will have) a form which a user fills in to enter new data.
I have two fields,
"Branch" and "Branch ID" (Branch ID will not be on the form, just in the table)
Branch will be fed by a combo box with seven choices. I would like it so that when "Branch" is populated it autopopulates Branch ID with a code which relates to the branch, so for example
BRANCH BRANCH ID
Braintree BRA
Colchester COL

In case my other question cant be resolved, I'd like to do a work around, but dont know how to do that either.
So, I have a form (Photos) with a field (PhotoTitle) and in the form is a subform containing a continuous form a (Sales).
This form contains invoiceno, location, customer etc... but also PhotoTitle field.
I've been trying to get it to populate based on a relationship and use that data elsewhere, but cant, so I'd then like it to.. on enter (or focus) automatically populate with the value from the main form (photos), phototitle field and put it into the sales subform phototitle field.
What is the code for doing that?
Thanks!

The pop-up will show the content of the parent form field or a literal if it is blank.
But it doesn't work. The syntax is invalid but my meaning is clear to everyone but the compile.
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
If [Forms]![MeetingStatus]![List2].[Column](3) = "" Then
Set [Forms]![Comment]![Text2] = "No comments"
Else
Set [Forms]![Comment]![Text2] = [Forms]![MeetingStatus]![List2].[Column](3)
End If
End Sub
Help!

A fellow employee of mine who is self taught in Microsoft Access currently has a database with a form that contains fields labeled name and address. She is trying to set it up so that when she begin to type, it will automatically look up to see if that name and address was previously entered to cut down on having to repeat it every time. She has tried the look up function with no success. She is using a single table as a base. Any assistance anyone can give us will be fantastic!! If I have posted this in the wrong forum or if this question was already answered, I could not locate it and I'm sorry if I am not following proper forum protocol.
Thanks!!

I've got three tables. One is Jobs, where Job_ID is the primary key. Each job has a client_id, which is another table.
In the third table, where timesheet data is entered, I've got both the Job_Id and the client_id.
Is there a way to make the client_id auto-populate based on the job_id in that table?

I have a member table. In that table, I have a member's subscription level. For easy, I'll just do this:
MEMBER_TBL
member_id (PK)memeber_type [Looks up which type of membership a player has]
Now, here is the issue I'm having. In another table I have transactions.
TRANSACTION
TRANSACTION_ID(pk)MEMBER_ID [Look up from the member's table]trans_amountmember_type
I would think that this would populate when I enter the member's ID but it doesn't.
I joined the tables and it still doesn't populate. What could I be doing wrong?

Hi there,
I've been working on this issue for quite sometime. I've tried different methods, such as the DLookup function, but I think I'm doing something wrong. Let me explain what I'm trying to do:
This is a Work Order, the user will Select a Customer (Table Customer: Contains CustomerID and Customer Name, address, etc) from a drop down box. When they do this, I have another textbox which is designated for the Address. I would like the address to automatically populate. but its not quite working. I've tried it with the DLookup function (I entered it into the control source of the textbox). I entered the following syntax:
=DLookup("Address","Customer","CustID=" & cboCustId)
It keeps coming up with an error. I have no idea why.
Now this is just the first half. The second half I have a subform on the same main form, which lists the equipment they have on their site. The database has a number of customers with many equipment for each of them. How do I make sure that the subform only populates equipment associated with the Customer that was selected on the main form?
I hope someone is able to help me.
Thanks a lot!

i have made two tables with data from an excel sheet. The excel sheet has many duplicates and im trying to eliminate this. The tables are:
tblTasks and tblTeam. Both have autoincrementing primary keys, and the tblTasks table has the TeamID (primary key from tblTeam) as a foreign key.
My question is, how do i populate the TeamID field via perhaps a query, as it is blank on all records. I have over 5000 tasks so a manual approach is what im trying to avoid. A sample of the fields in the tables is as follows:
tblTasks
TaskID - PK
Task Name
Team ID - FK
tblTeam
TeamID - PK
Team Name
there's also a Staff table. tblTeam has a one to many relationship with the Staff table. tblTeam also has a one to many relationship with the tblTasks table.
