General :: Creating Pop Up Based On Conflicting Dates
Nov 12, 2014
- I currently have a table that is labeled WorkSchedule. I then Created a query called WorkSchedule Query.
- The column labels are as follows (listed from right to left): Project, Event (something inside of the project), Employee1, Employee2, StartDate, EndDate
- I created a split form that shows each record.
- On each record I made the employee1, and employee2 as a drop down box that allows you to pick from all employees.
*MY QUESTION*
How do I make a pop up form appear when there is a conflicting date based on the employee I picked?
For example: If I had assigned Rebecca to an event that went on from 11/12/2014 - 11/14/2014. Then I tried to assign her to another event from 11/13/2104-11/15/2014. I want a pop up message saying that these dates conflict.
I have a query that has some reminder dates. 10 days before an event and 5 days after. I was wondering if it would be feasible to create an outlook reminder based on the query and if so how would I go about it?
I am trying to create an attendance database, our company introducing the point system attendance,
Called Off (CO) 2 points Left Early (LE) 1 Point Tardy (Tar) 1 point
Employee can reduce point if they have perfect attendance for 90 days from the last day of violation. For example, an employee absent on 01/01/2015, he will received 2 points, the credit will giving on 04/01/2015, if there is no violation, but if he absent again on 03/31/2015 not only he will received 2 more points his 90 days will start from 03/31/2015, now he will eligible to get credit on 06/29/2015 and so on.So far I have created 3 tables and 1 query.
Tables
Employees: Id, Last Name, First Name Points: Id, Description Points Attendance:Id, Date, Employee ID, Points ID
Query Date Employee ID Last Name First Name Point Description Points
how and which formula to use which calculate the points based on above example.
I am designing a database for a quarry for maintenance of their machines. I have a table that has a full list of all the parts on the machines, and a multiple value lookup field that says what machines said parts are used on. I am trying to have these values translate to another table, so I can then insert a field to say how many of each part are used on the respective machine, to display on an information form for each machine.
I would also like this table to update if the relevant information is updated, for example if a new machine is input, then have the table update to reflect what parts are used on it (an After Update function?) I have made a query that gives me the read out I want (attached) but just cannot figure out how to get that into a table so I can add the extra information.
I am trying to create a image based off a drop down result. I have had no problem with setting up a image based off a static number. e.g 0456432 in the student id field will bring up students photo in the network share.
What I am having an issue with is the control source will look for a number instead of the name that the drop box displays. this is due to a separate table for the drop box.
what is the expression i need to make in order for the name to appear from the dropbox rather than the source id number?
Live front end in one network folder, accessible by all users. Development front end in another folder accessible only by myself (changes imported into Live as and when necessary). Back end in another folder accessed by both front ends.
One of the tables contains orders made by various people. The way the data entry form is set up is that, once a person's ID has been entered, all previous orders are displayed in a sub form at the bottom of the screen.
I'm noticing that, if two people are entering new records into it via two different PCs, it sometimes happens that one person can see an inserted record, only for it to later vanish from both the form and the underlying table. There is no pattern to these 'disappearances', but it's obviously concerning.
Possibly more worrying is that, from time to time, all records for the person being updated are being lost, not just the most recent entries being made.
I have the database set to Record Level Locking. Can anyone suggest anything else I should be looking out for or should have done?
The only other thing I can think of is that I sometimes enter records from the development version, while it is open in development mode, with just the data entry form being out of design mode. Would that make a difference? If so, why?
I'm having an issue with two programs. One searches the DB and emails the results, the other searches the DBand prints labels from a report. When only one is in there the program will run fine. But when I try to implementboth at once then I get an error message that is something like: The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Ambiguous name detected: SQLSafeThe way the form is setup I am using the same text box to enter my search criteria and the same option groupbox with my check boxes for what I'm searching for both programs. Is this possibly the conflict? Am I going to haveto have seperate option groups and search criteria boxes for each program? It would be nice if I don't because thiskeeps the look of my form clean.

I am working on an older database that was built on the 2002/2003 version of Access. When we converted to 2007/2010 Access we lost a small function of the database and cannot find a way to override it. We have a report that prints all names with a summary of hours by the quarter. The database retains all data. After conversion the report will not print all names, only those that were in the database prior to conversion and those with hours in the current quarter. Is there a way to write a multiple set of criteria that will allow the names and the dates to function separately?
I am creating a database for creating quotations. The quotation number is generated using the date, for example the first quote today would be quote number "05202015-1" because it is the first one today. The next quote today would be quote number "05202015-2" and so on. Is there a way to make access automatically generate these quote numbers based on the date?
I have a database with two tables. One with a schedule that lists all of the events with the person assigned to, with there start date and end date in separate columns.
My second table lists a persons leave. So I have there name and the start and end date of their leave in separate columns.
Is there a form/query I can create using VBA that will allow me to filter out all the criteria that has the same name and then a date that conflicts between the event date and the leave date.
for example,
If Name(in table 1 ) = Name (in table 2)
(if false stop)
AND,
If StartDate (from table 1) and EndDate (from table1) conflicts with StartDate (from table 2)and EndDate (from Table 2)
(if false stop)
If true I want either the query to register it OR have a form appear to show the conflicting entries.
I have set certain fields on my main form to be required to protect from accidnetal skipping which has occured in past. However, in middle of form, there are a group of checkboxes, which opens their correndsponding popup forms for more details. Right now, I get an error if it try to pop up a form because not all required fields are filled in.How do I make Access suspend the requirments whenever the checkboxes are checked and additional info are being inputed?Edit= tried setting it as dialog boxes, but to no avail.
I am trying to create a database to analyze expiration dates of multiple products.
Let me lay out what I am trying to accomplish.
I have 5 ambulances, each ambulance has the same quantity of medications on it. There are three separate locations medications are stored on each truck. Each month I need to be able to update expiration dates, query what medications will expire by a set date and where exactly they are located.
SO here is the structure as I see it.
Ambulance 1 contains, a drug drawer with approximately 30 different medications, a trauma bag with about 10 different medications, and a blood glucose kit with 2 different medications. Now some of medications are repeated in the different locations, but have different quantities. The medications will never all have the same expiration date, and medication 1 might have 8 vials, where medication 2 may have 4 vials. I would like my form to be dynamic based on the inventory level of the medications. That way if we decide to keep 10 vials instead of 8 the form will then require the 2 extra data points.
The tables I have created so far...
table 1 lists all the ambulances table 2 lists medications in the drug drawer and the inventory level table 3 lists medications in the trauma bag and the inventory level table 4 lists medications in the blood glucose kit and the inventory level
I need to create a table to store my expiration dates for each of the locations in each of the ambulances.
I need to create a form to simplify the entry of the data into those tables and I want the form and table to be dynamic to the inventory level.
I'm creating a db that provides project listings in the work queue, along with the due dates and a bunch of other data.
I have created a table [recurring projects] that stores the projects that are done frequently. Once I do some field manipulations on this table, I append them to a master table with all projects [projects] - ad hocs, non-recurring, etc.
Most, not all, recurring projects are due 14 days from the date of assignment, however it varies. I've created a query that populates the due date 14 days or whatever the user has inputed for working days from the assignment date.
All works good with this functionality.
Here's my problem:
There are some projects that are due on the 1st, 15th or some designated date each month. Typically the projects are assigned a due date prior to the month due (i.e. February projects are assigned in January). Since the due dates change each month, is there a way to code a query to look for the first process - 14 days - and if it is null, then populate with a day of the month due.
For example, the field [days_to_complete] = 14 so the query will populate 14 days from 1/31/07 resulting in [due_date] = 2/14/07 OR [days_to_complete] is null, but [day_of_month] = 1 , which I need to create the [due_date] = 2/1/07
I'm racking my brain and pencils are being cracked!
I would like a query to return dates based upon the input of just the day and month. At the moment I have a parameter query which asks for 'start date' and 'end date' and this works fine, but I want the query to return all the records for all the years in the database and not just the current one (date format is dd/mm/yy)
So if I type <start date> 01/01 and <end date> 02/01 the query will return:
Right trying to create a database that is centered around displaying images.
I already have my forms and navigation working fine but need some help with the images. what i would like, if possible, is on the forms one image is displayed but it has navigation buttons underneath to switch between images in the form. nothing fancy just that!
if anyone has done this before or has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated!!
I am working on a dataBase and I need to have it check if a set of tables exist based on the data of another table and if any do not exist create the table(s) based on a template. the caviat is that the data in one table are both names of tables and field in another.
Table1 has fields named 'first name' and 'last name'; the data in that field is for example Peter Adams, John Smith. I need to check on start that the tables named PAdams, JSmith.and so on exist, if not create them from a table template with fields 'vacation', 'personal', 'sick, etc. also i need to check on startup that a table named Department exist; if not, create it with fields named PAdams, JSmith and so on.... is that possible?
* A table of consultants * A table of contracts * A table of assignments (shows which consultants are assigned to which contracts, along with the start and end dates of those assignments) * A table in which consultants book their time to projects
The consultant assignments change over time. What I need to do is create a query that shows a) the amount of time a consultant booked to a project(s), and b) the contract to which he/she was associated at the time. For example, if a consultant was associated to Contract A in February, Contract B in March, and Contract C in April, I want to be able to accurately reflect that in my query. I'm not sure how to go about doing this in my query.
I'm sure many here have solved similar problems, so any help you can give will be appreciated.
Was wondering if it is possible to create a query or another method that would calculate future dates based on inputted info ?
For example a person inputs on a form a date completed (06/14/07) and then also selects a frequency of when this has to be revisited....monthly, quarterly, semi-annually.
So based on the date completed that the person inputs I'm trying to get the date if they select monthly of 7/14/07 (using above date example).
I am working on a jobs database where employees enter information where the job is being handed off to. I want to create a table showing the latest job entry by date. The jobs are listed by "Job Number" and when I try to create a table and remove the duplicate "Job Number" it does not always remove the oldest entries.
I was wondering how to create a form which is using data from three tables, the data in the tables does not have any relationship setup as they are not related to each other. When I use the wizard and I select the three tables, Access starts complaining about the fact that no relationship has been setup...
I have a database with several clients who have a series of appointments. I want to be able to create a report of all the clients to be seen during a range of dates to be inputted by the user. All help would be greatly appreciated.
I would like a query which would look at the difference between TBL_Sales and TBL_Finance and will then add rows to TBL_Sales to make them balance. In the example above I would want it to add the following (I've used C as a Product_Type to show that it's a manually entered value) -
I have some code that creates queries based on a value in a checkbox.
So, depending on that value, the queries may or may not exist.
I need to take those queries (if the exist) and create one union query.
This code creates the first query beautifully, but it won't union the second query.
Code: Private Sub cmdSubmit_Click() Dim blnQueryExists As Boolean Dim cat As New ADOX.Catalog Dim cmd As New ADODB.Command Dim qry As ADOX.View blnQueryExists = False
