Forms :: How To Play A Sound From A Subform

Sep 15, 2013

I have to tables:

Table 1 contains "cases picked"
Table 2 contains "cases required"

i have a query with info populated from those 2 tables:field "results" shows the results of this calculation: "cases required"-"cases picked"="results".In this query I have a conditional format stating: If true, displays text "ok" and the field will be green, if false, displays text "alert" and the field will be red.

Then I have this query in a subform (a form within another form),I would like to have a code or a formula for this query, where it would play a sound if (and only in this case) the value of "cases picked" is bigger than the value in "cases required"

This is how it works, you open the main form, start using a barcode scanner to scan cases, everytime you scan each case, the subform is refreshed and adds cases, and shows results, and shows how many cases you are missing or how many cases you are over, but this is only in the screen, i would like to have a sound in this subform, so in case you pick more cases than required, a loud sound is played as an alert, i still can't figure out where to put the solution, if as a formula in the query, or a code in the subform.

General :: Access 2013 - Compact Database To New Name

Jan 30, 2015

Access 2013 ... Is it possible to compact a database to a new name?

(In previous incarnations of Access I regularly 'compacted and repaired' databases to USB sticks rather than simply copy the file in the (mistaken??) belief that this was a more reliable approach)...

I can't see where to do this in Access 2013!

General :: How To Sum Multiple Columns In Access 2013

Nov 28, 2014

I made a new column in a table in access. The table is not linked and linking unfortunately is not an option. In the new column, I want to create a sum for 5 years of funding. There are multiple columns for a different fiscal year.

In excel, it is simply =sum(range), but I am drawing completely blank how to fill in the column with the sum data.

The end result is the data from 4 tables will be displayed in Forms and Reports.

Essentially what I need is an ability to bulk update a column in access table without a need to reupload the entire datasheet (over 100k rows with about 30 columns).

General :: Lookup Data Type In Access 2013 Web App?

Jan 2, 2014

I want to create a Web App in Access 2013 that contains a table of client names, addresses etc, and a second table that contains order details, including client name. It would be nice to ensure that as someone adds a new order they are give a drop down menu containing existing client names, and I can see how you can do this for a brand new table using the lookup data type. But I already have an Excel spread sheet containing client names. If I import this into my Access web app to create the client table, and import the existing orders to create the order table, I then try and change the data type of the client name (in the order table) from short text to lookup, it won't let me!! (If I create an empty client table from scratch, it lets me define the company name as a lookup data type - but I can't then import from Excel into this empty table)

General :: Query Parameters In Access 2013 Web Apps

Feb 2, 2014

I'm creating my first web app with Access 2013 and I'd like to allow users to run a query after supplying a parameter to be used in the query.Simple example might be to display a list of all records that contain a date older than "x" in a particular field - with the user supplying the value for "x" I understand that query parameters don't work with the web browser and that I need to use a macro to request the input of "x" and pass it to the query, but I can't find any examples of this kind or macro action (OpenDialog, I understand from Jeff's book).

General :: Access 2013 / Error - Not Enough Memory To Update The Display

Dec 16, 2014

I am regularly getting the error "There is not enough free memory to update your display, close unneeded programs and try again"

Access 2013 on a windows 7 machine with 4 processors and 24GB total RAM.

Today I have 14 GB free memory (unbelievable! my first laptop had 136 MB total memory!) when I got this error (Access using 38MB) which makes me believe its not a system memory issue but to do with how much (or quickly) memory is allocated to Access.

General :: Some Fields Intermittently Not Showing Data In Access 2013?

Feb 13, 2014

I've recently moved up to Access 2013 (from Access 2010) and everything went well, until one day my splash screen was blank and the program had empty fields...after seeing that all the links to the BE were OK, I re-booted and everything worked fine....until the next day the same thing happened...... The program randomly falls over about once or twice a week and I have to re-boot to cure it.....

My splash screen has a standard dlookup ( [=DLookUp("Banner","tblCompanyInfo")] ) to display the active company name...and sometimes its populated and other times its not..... if its not populated then loads of other fields on the forms are also blank - even if they point to valid data in the database!

I run Win7 (both 32 and 64bit) with Access 2013 32bit on three PC's - same problem on all!

General :: Access 2013 - Sort Database Window By Description?

Oct 10, 2013

Through a set of circumstances, I have had to quickly migrate a long-standing (and business critical) database from Access 2003 to Access 2013, without the sort of prepping and planning that I would normally do in such circumstances.

Most functionality appears to be working ok...

Many of my database objects, especially queries, were given meaningful descriptions.

For example, a number of queries might have been described as "Accounts Data Validation".

When I wanted to run validation of the Accounts data, I would simply sort the database queries window by description, then scroll to the relevant section and run all of the tagged queries in turn.

However, having migrated to Access 2013, although the descriptions are still shown, I can no longer sort by them !

Medium term, I could probably assign different database objects to "Groups", but we are talking hundreds, perhaps even thousands of different objects and that would be a laborious and extremely tedious process.

Any way of sorting the database window by description in Access 2013 ?

General :: Mail Merge Word File (using Data From Access File)

Mar 11, 2014

I often create contract using mail merge. I have an access file that I want to use as data source for word file. But it does not automatically.

Please download the attached file !

If there are 1 customer and 1 property, I do not need to do anything. Conversely, if there are many customers and many properties, I take time to manipulate.

Firstly, I open the word file. I have to copy and paste paragraphs that I want. Highlight of the original paragraphs is blue.

Secondly, I click 'Insert Word Field' -> select 'Next Record'.

In short, I wish to use VBA in access file to automatically perform the steps that I have outlined.

General :: How To Get A Large Dat File Into Access

Feb 3, 2013

I have a large .dat file which is run through an Access macro to produce reports. After a recent system change at work the format of the .dat has changed and now includes an additional bit of data which disrupts the macro.

I tried changing the extension of the file from dat to mdb to see if I could remove the additional column in access. I also tried changing it to a csv file as well but the file has a few hundred thousand lines and the csv file cuts most of it out.

Are there any other ways I can open this file in Access to remove this additional column of data?

General :: BAT File Does Not Work If Access Is Already Open

Oct 18, 2014

I use below simple command line to start a macro in my Access database. Usually all works well. I start my bat file, command is executed and macro does its job.

However it always fails if I have a session of Access already opened even if it is a completely different database. If I use below then it opens another sessions of Access but does not execute the macro. I need to go into the second session and run macro manually. It works fine then.

Code:
"C:UsersMeDocumentsDatabas1.accdb" /X Macro

General :: Unified Same Tables For 3 Different MS Access File

Mar 31, 2015

I have 3 sets of MS Access File (NEDA, RDC,& Summid) built with the same sets of structures. Originally at MS Access 2007, but now I'm using the built in 2010 version for Lenovo Flex 2.The table consist of:

*Chart of Accounts
*Journal Entry Voucher Master File
*Journal Entry Number Master File
*Supplier Master File
Queries are the same (links, designed, etc...)
Forms are also the same (links, designed, etc...)
Reports are also the same (links, designed, etc...)

The difference for these three file is the Journal Entry Number because each file requires a different JEV format...Example:

-For NEDA it should be NEDA-Year-Month-Number Series
-For RDC it should be RDC-Year-Month-Number Seried

Laslty for summid it should be Summid-Year-month-Number Series and separate transaction listing for the purpose of calling data for the report, such as List of disbursements and trial balance.But for these three MS Access file, Chart of Accounts and Supplier Master File do have the same set of data. That's why whenever a data is not available I am encoding the said information in each MS Access file (inputting the data three times).Example:If an asset account such as Office Supplies is not available, I will input in the Chart of Account Form for NEDA, then RDC, then Summid.

Question

Is there a way where I can unified the Chart of Accounts and Supplier Master File into one but still can entry/edit the same in each MS Access forms. Also can still link to each queries, tables,and reports?So that I will encode data one time only and save space.

General :: Cannot Open Front End Access File

Jun 28, 2012

I was successfully using a front end and back end setup for the past two years. Today I needed to push through some changes and "deactivate" the previous back end database and setup a new back end database. The new back end database has been sent; however the front end is not recognizing the back end database anymore. I need to re-link the existing front end to the back end database - I cannot import the front end into a "fresh" file because I put a password on the VBA Editor.

General :: Is It Possible To Get File Size Of Access Objects

Feb 24, 2014

Is it possible (using the menu or VBA code) to find out the size of the objects in an Access database file?For example if the .accdb file is 300Mb, is there any way of comparing the size of the numerous tables/forms/reports/queries etc, that make up the database?(I know that if I created a new access file and imported the objects from the working database that could give an indication but that would be quite a repetitive process).
