I have a database I created. its has Units, then it has Tracts and under tracts it has Leases. the main form is for the units. then I have a sub form which is tracts. in the tracts there is a field for Leases Vol/Page. everything works great. now I have a client that wants to send me Title opinions which are for several of the leases in the tract sub form. I need to input the info in a form and have it saved in fields in each Lease at one time.
Right now I have to goto each lease and insert it every time one by one. the field for each lease is the Vol/Page field. is their a way I can do this without having to goto each lease one at a time.??????? in other words one title opinion might be the same for ten of the leases I need to update these all at once.
I have this database I'm working on and have a couple of issues I can't work out.
The first is this, I want to have my sub forms go to the last record when moving through the main form, currently I can only get this to work when I open the form?
If I move through the records in my main form (forward and backwards), the two sub forms go to the first record only, so how can I get them to go to the last recor?
I've attached the DB to show you what I mean. Thanks in advance Tez
I created a new form with two subforms. They each reference their own table but are linked by a field called Case_Name. I created a unbound combo box in the main form to allow filtering of the records based on Case_name and I do a requery when the record is found. I am importing data from another application into the three tables ( main with other fields, as well as other tables ..Case_Name only).
The form/subforms are then used to modify or add new data to the existing records in each table/subform. The problem I have is when I go to update/add data in the subforms, it comes back and tells me that it cannot add data due to data integrity. It thinks I am trying to add a new record with the same Case_Name. I have the forms and subforms set up as Data Entry = No so that no new records can be added. I only want to modify existing data as the records are created from the import process.
I have a screen with multiple records from a database. At the top of the screen I have a button that lets the user change the mode between read only and edit modes. The current mode is displayed near the button. When the user decides to update a record or records he goes into the edit mode and starts changing the records. The user may change any number of records on the screen. When editing is finished he presses a button called save and close gets feedback and leaves the screen. Now in this process how do I keep track of the records that are changed on the screen . Plus he can hit the page down key and go to the next page and make changes there also. Is it possible to stop the hitting of the page down key. What indicators can I use to spot the records changed?
I have a form with a tabbed area, each tab containing a subform. One of these subforms adds records to a table. Another subform shows the totals from that table.
But when I add records, the totals tab is not updated with the new quantities unless I close the form completely and go back in. I tried adding Me.Dirty = False to the subform that adds the records but that makes no difference.
It seems as though the 'totals' subform gets those values as the form is loaded and does not change, even when records are added and then that tab is selected.
How can I get the totals subform to show the updated totals?
I have been having issues with a subform on the attached database - for some reason it is not always updating to show corresponding records.
What I am planning, this is effectively going to be an interactive learning portal which can test users as well. There will be learning material (not yet included) and a bank of questions with corresponding multiple-choice answers, only one of which is correct. Each time the main form is loaded (Cat1MainForm) it randomly selects and orders questions, then, via a sub-form, returns three potential answers. There will then be radio buttons with which the users can answer appropriately.
If you load up Cat1MainForm and scroll through various questions you will see that sometimes the answers appear, other times not. Sometimes on one record the answers are there, you navigate away and back, and they have disappeared, and vice-versa.
I have a popup form that user will select for updating 4 fields in table. I have a update button that has code behind it that verifies the record is complete before closing the popup form. That works well.
However, I want to add an abort button that will close the form and save nothing entered however, I getting incomplete records and blank records. How can I code the button to not update the table and just close the form?
I have this estimate database for a construction company. In this database I calculate how much will a project cost. It's pretty much complete the only problem that I have is trying to figure out how to update the cost of a trade without affecting older records
Example let's say we have a painter that makes $15/hr in project A,B,C,D,E we decide to give him a raise so project F would have a new amount for painter. The problem with that is that it will affect record A-E
I don't want that my department wants to go back and view a history of records. Also take a look at my database it's my first time creating one ...
I am trying to build a sales invoice for a pharmacy that contains a sub form in a datasheet view. The main form contains only the invoice number and date while the sub form contains the drug code, drug name, Qty., Available Qty. and Updated Qty.
Presently, I can only code the update to takes place on each line of the datasheet. I want the update to take place at the end when I must have finished inputting all drugs bought with same invoice number.
I have a form listing tasks to which I make personnel assignments with a multi-value list field type. It takes some time to select from 15-25 employees on the list for each task, especially considering that small groups of employees will be assigned to the same selection of tasks.
What I want to do is select multiple records with the mouse, then click a command button opening a form in dialog mode with the selection list. The user then clicks to make his selections and clicks ok, which then updates the multi-select field for the selected records.
I am working on a web database with a form which is bound to an underlying web table where the submissions occur.My challenge is that the fields on the form get submitted to the table even before the submit button is clicked regardless of whether the form was completely filled.
My request is that I want the form to only submit to the submission table only when the submit button is clicked.When I searched on the net, the only solutions I got are VBA written code but my web database cannot use VBA code.
VBA code:
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Private blnGood As Boolean Private Sub cmdSave_Click() blnGood = True Call DoCmd.RunCommand(acCmdSaveRecord) blnGood = False End Sub
I have a form that has combo boxes and text fields (as well as sub forms). There is also a button linked to some code that says'
Private Sub cmdQuote_Click() 'Creates quote date and prints quote Me.QuoteDate = Now() Me.cbAgentID.Requery DoCmd.OpenReport "Quote", acViewPreview, , "BookingID = " & Me.BookingID End Sub
When the button is pressed the QuoteDate field (it is bound) should be be populated, but unfortunately it is not. I have played with refresh and requery but cannot derive a solution.
I have a database with details about employees in it.

Hi there people...i'm doing a databae project for A2 level coursework and have encountered a problem..please help me if you can. I have a table of names. Also another table (actions) which contains several fields, but 2 of them are names, (1 being Proposer, and other being Actionee), are obtained from the names table. However, when altering for instance the spelling of one of the names in the names table it does not update the spelling in the actions table. i have tried using the relationship-update option but this doesn't work because the names appear more than once in the actions table. if it were to appear just the once in the actions table then i wouldn't have any problem. but it is a requirement that the 2 names fields are in the actions table. Any ideas of how to solve this?

Im using Microsoft Access 2003 and have a form 'frm_contacts' linked to a source table 'tbl_contacts'. My frm_contacts form has a button which when pressed opens a popup form 'frm_hottarget' of some additional fields from the same source table. The frm_hottargets form contains the field 'State' which is the same field in the frm_contacts form.
What i want is to have the State field from the popup frm_hottarget form to change to the value of the State field in the frm_contacts form as soon as the button is pressed. At the moment, the only way i can get the State field from the frm_hottargets form to change to the same value as the frm_contacts form is to close both forms and reopen them, or click the next record button and then back record button from the frm_contacts form.
I need some help, I’m trying to update 1 database which is in SQL on one server with data from another database which is on another server There are around 8000 records. It is taking for ever updating the data via MS Access Append Query and Update query. Do you know if there is any other faster way in code, which can be updated? Maybe in a loop doing 100 records at a time or any other suggestions.
Reason I need a faster way is the data on the SQL database is needs to be updated is linked to a website with data in , while the data is being updated the website crashes.
I have a table with many records, and I would like to update for one of the fields, the same information as in the first record. Keep in mind that a group of records have the same attribute. The same problem is easy to solve in EXCEL just by dragging down the info from the above cell - in this way you populate all the records with the same info as the first record, for a specific field.
Ok so I have a table that has Customer Contacts logged into it. One of the fields in the table is Owner_ID. This field is a text field that contains the salespersons name that is the current "owner" of that account. Because of the business that I am in, this field can change many times within a given quarter (I will be updating every quarter). For duplication purposes (i bulk upload records from excel worksheets that the salespeople give me) I have my primary key set up as contact first name + contact last name + zip code. If I have to update lets say 400 records just to change the owner of a certain customer contact, how can I do that as a bulk import?
My first thought would be that I would have on my excel sheet the 3 fields that make up the primary key along with the 1 field (owner_id) and it would autochange the information in that particular record....but obviously I don't know how to really do this.
i have a query which find all the records of stock that are similar. I want to count how many of these there are. How would i go about doing this?
I then want the user to type in the system they want, how many they want, and this will "remove" the system from the list, but not from stock i.e. makes it unavailable. The query is been created from the stock, and so everytime the query is run, it would overwrite the "unavailable stock". If any one could help, this would be great!
For some reason, after i added new records to my table, the fields on my form don't update... :confused: .. any idea why and how i can solve this problem ?
Underlying tables - Farmer, Field(as in crops)... Each Farmer has about 30 fields.

I have this table "tblPreventativeMaintenance" which calculates when the next appointment for service. Stored in the field "NextDueService". I have three fields in this table. "SerialNumber", "NextDueService" & "Engineer'sReport".The whole purpose of the table above is to do the calculations.Now the results of the calculations I need them to go into another table "tblInstallations" so I can use it to show Next Due Service when there is a call out in regards to certain ready installed equipment. I have same fields in both tables.I tried update query but for some reason it didn't work or at least wasn't giving me the results I needed from it.
