General :: Display Headers Over Grouped Items In Table
Dec 14, 2012
I have a table of items for our companies quotes. When we go to print out our quotes to send to the customers, the salespeople would like most of the items to be grouped under certain "headers" for the systems they are part of.
Ex:
Autopilot System
Part #1 Qty 2
Part #2 Qty 1
PA/GA System
Part #4 Qty 4
Part #5 Qty 1
My 'Items' table currently has these fields:
ID (PK)
System_ID (FK for 'Systems' table)
Part_No
Qty
etc...
'Systems' table has these:
ID (PK)
Sys_Description
I have a query using a RIGHT JOIN and a GROUP BY to tie everything together, I'm just not certain how to go about displaying the information the way I did above.
I'd like to use a macro to display only those items which stay as a group in "Old Project Code" (black font) and filter out those which are singles in "Old Project Code" (red font) as shown below extracted out from a worksheet called "Project" in Excel.
1. The color wasn't there in original sheet. It is here only for demo purpose. 2. Data are changing dynamically, so need a macro in place to catch a snapshot at the time of macro is firing.
I'm creating a database for my job. I have 4 tables with information. When I need to deliver some items i must know which items to take, They are in those 4 tables.
I want to make it that i can click a menu on my switchboard that i see a report with all the information with a clickbox behind it. If i select this box and click a button generate it creates a report with all the items i've selected with the select box.
So in short:
1.) How do I create a table with all the items from the other tables that are automatic updated when insert a items in one of those 4 tables.
2.) How do I create a report where i can select some items that are generating a report with the selected items.
I have two tables to track our engineer visits, one tracks the visit as a whole and the other tracks the individual instruments the engineer worked on during that visit. This way I can track visits to customer sites separately to the visits made to an individual instrument.
Right now, I create a visit and then add Visit Lines (containing the details of the instrument visited). These instruments, or 'Visit Lines', are being displayed in the Visits Table via a related items box. Visit lines are associated with Instruments in the Instrument Table via a serial number lookup. All this works great...
However, I want to display both the serial number and the instrument description in the related items control in the Visits Table. Since the Visit Lines table only has the instrument ID lookup and not the instrument description I can't display it in the control.
I need to either:
a) Create an instrument description in the Visit Lines table as a lookup and have this automatically pull in the description based on the serial number the user selects.... which I can't figure out how to do - it's just an autocomplete.
b) Create an instrument description in Visit Lines and have a macro grab the corresponding description from the Instruments table based on the serial number input - but just for this record...
I have a form with a textbox, listbox and a button.
my textbox is based on one of my tables, and when I enter a value (which is saved in my table) in my textbox and press enter, certain values in my table goes to my listbox, and my listbox will just additem whenever I do same thing in my textbox all overagain.
how can I subtract listbox.column(1) items in my table field "Item_Quantity" where my Listbox.column(0) is equal to my table field "Item_Description".
My Listbox column count property = 4 Row source type = value list
I have two options on the main switchboard page and when I click on the second option it goes to a secondary page that gives me 3 options with the third option being to return to the main screen. When I select that option it does go back to the main screen but then on the main screen it shows the return to main screen option as well and when I select it.... it says " There was an error reading the switchboard items table." But I want the main screen to only show the original two options only.
I just want to know how to manage items in set and individual item. Suppose my product list are
individual items = A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K and 5 pc set = A,B,C,D,F and 3 pc set = G,H,K
How should I design the table. Previously I designed the table for individual items and whenever orders for set is placed user had to enter individual items with quantity.
E.g. order is for 5 pc set = 3000
A=3000 B=3000 C=3000 D=3000 F=3000
Now I need to just say 5 pc set and it should be automatically populated. And also if order have combination of individual and set items.
How could I create a single table (matrix) type input view to allocate bank transactions to categories, noting one transaction can be allocated multiple categories with an associated percentage? What approach should I use in Access to get this? So say I have the following tables:
* Transactions * Business Category * Transaction-Business-Allocation (which includes) - Transaction ID - Business Category ID - Percent Allocation
But in terms of the means of reviewing bank account items and allocating I really want a view like this (see attached image)The specific business category could be either selected specifically, or all included.
I'm working with several different source datasets. Mostly this are TXT files.
When I import the data in a new table with a specification, I want to validate if the dataset is the correct dataset be validating the headers in the source data.
I have created a table with the headers, that consists of 92 columns. Below 3 example columns of the header data:
Now I want to check during the import of the imported data has a line in it that is equal to the data in the table headers. If not, the import stops and informs the user that the data set is not correct. This to prevent that incorrect data will be inserted into the database.
Some extra information: The data is import into the database via VBA DoCmd.TransferText into a new created table, using an inport specification.
If the data is okay, it will be appended to an existing table that is being used to process the data further. After that the import table is being deleted.
Basically I want to import an excel file that doesn't have any column headings and the data starts on row 4. I already have a table with all of the column headings set in Access.
My research led me to create an import specification and then edit that in the 'mSysIMEXSpecs' Table to Start on Row 4 and then use that spec in VBA to transfer the file to my table. That all seems good, but it seems like an Import Spec only gets saved to the 'mSysIMEXSpecs' Table if you are importing a text file. Nothing gets saved there for Excel.
I have a small stock control database built around a Northwind example. I am trying to build a query that displays items low on stock. On my products form I have: Min Order Level field (stored value) Units on Hand (calculated value from products subform (units received-units sold)).
Q1: Do I use a query to calculate/display this? Q2: How do I construct an expression to acheive this?
I have an Excel file with a name range "DBIAS" which identifies all database data.
Then I have an Access file with a form to import that database (better, that named range) into an Access table. While importing, I have to filter some records or grouping by some field.
I cannot run correctly a VBA code to get data (filtered and/or grouped) from that name range and save those records to an existing or a brand new table.
I could get those data as DAO.recordset and printed out with "Debug.print" on immediate window, but I cannot complete the final step: writing those records to a table.
I have a table called "Workorders" that I have created a split form for and have customised it so that it had combo boxes etc to enable the user to change the record data.I then needed to add some existing queries to the form so that I could calculate some totals from records in a few other tables. This all works fine EXCEPT that I can no longer change any of the fields in the records.
I am sure that it is something to do with the fact that the 3 queries I added to the form use the "Grouped by" option and based upon my Googling, this is probably the issue.Here is one of the queries:
SELECT DISTINCTROW [Workorder Labor].WorkorderID, Sum([BillableHours]*[BillingRate]) AS [Labor Total] FROM [Workorder Labor] GROUP BY [Workorder Labor].WorkorderID;
I need to have the totals and I also need to have the ability to change the data..
I can't get my choices to display--only the Headers. In the selected field I choose combo box and choose the table to look up in the row source. The data columns are first in the table and their ID is last, but I only get the Header to display in the box. If I deselect header, I get an emply list
There are actually 7 columns in the look up table (the eighth is the ID) and 10 rows of possible choices.
Column Count: 7 Headers: Yes (or no doesn't matter) Bound Column: 1 (changing doesn't matter) Limit to List: No (so I can add)
What am I missing in the properties setting?
Also, can I use one of the columns in the look up table as a primary sort on a report? Or will it see the whole string of columns as one?
I have created a from which consists of search boxes in the above and the table in the below.
If we search for any in those search boxes then the results will be displayed at the bottom (The results will be displayed in the table which is located at the bottom of the page)
I had done with the above part.
My Requirement :
If I click on any of the row in the results table then is it possible to display only the selected row in a new form????
If I search for a keyword MS in a search box and if it returns 40 results and if I click on any one of the result then the selected result should be opened in a new form.
I have the below code behind a form so that a combo box will display a specific list of items based on the data in another combo box on my form.
I have two copies of this same form for two different departments. One of the forms works like a dream. However, when I copy that form, change the name, and update the code as pictured below, the form is asking for a parameter FROM MY ORIGINAL FORM and will not requery the combo box. I can't figure out why...there is no reference to the original form in my VBA as you can see below. I tried deleting the form and re-creating it, I tried deleting the code and re-typing it to no avail.
Private Sub cmboType_AfterUpdate() Me.cmboAction.RowSource = "SELECT tblStatusList.Status FROM tblStatusList WHERE (((tblStatusList.Department)=[forms]![frmInquiryFraud]![cmboType]));" End Sub
I have a table which has around 25 columns having unic headings (tble name - Worked_File). All I need to do is populate only the headings of all the coulumns through a button click to a list box.
I am in the process of developing a pivot table with grouping per month per year which works just fine. However, I would like to rename the column header items. It will not allow me.
The scenario: the data is from a query that deprives data from two tables (Date from Table A) and (TypeID from Table B: Query will show TypeID in text format based on SELECT to show data in text format not numeric format).
The struggle: Renaming the column headers which shows the TypeID in numbers based on its ID (the first column of Table B), not its Description (the second column of the Table B).
The question: How do I make the column headers to show the TypeID in text based on its Description in the second column of the Table B?
I have a access 2007 file. with a table with a yes/no field. When I link the table to another db using lnked table manager, the yes/no display is not a checkbox (as set) but is turns into textbox.
My database contains a table that has two fields named 'occurance1' and 'occurance2', both containing a range of different dates. In a form I have in that database, I would like to have a field displaying the total counts for both 'occurance1' and 'occurance2', but only the count for both occurances that have 'Today' as a date. Preferably without having to run yet another query, so if possible I would like that as soon as an occurance that has 'today' as a date is entered in the table, the total count shows correctly in the form.
I have one table (500 Club) with two fields (ID) (Name) i would like to randomly pick a record from the table and display the results in two seperate text boxes on a form one for (ID) and one for (Name). I intend to use this for a monthly draw at my workplace.
I have an access table and I want the code that will check two columns in the table "EnvelopeType" and "EnvelopeSize" and create headers in Excelsheet automatically. In the attached workbook, like in sheet1 the headers are already appeared, I want this to be done dynamically using vba code so that if new values get inserted in EnvelopeType and EnvelopeSize then we won't have to change the code to display more headers.
Please see attached workbook named Sample and Access table. E.g.
EnvelopeType EnvelopeSize TNT 2nd Class C5 PP1 2nd Class C5 PPI 1st Class A4 Recorded A4 TNT 2nd Class C5 PP1 2nd Class C5 Recorded A4 PPI 1st Class A4 Recorded C5
With the code it should display following headers in excel sheet:
TNT 2nd Class C5 PP1 2nd Class C5 PPI 1st Class A4 Recorded A4 Recorded C5
how data is best structured in Access.I have a table of values (for instance: weight) and I need to be able to look up a weight based on the column header (age) and row header (height).How is this sort of data best structured and accessed in Access?
I have a listbox control on my form which works in conjunction with my search field on the first form. I can add new items with FRM_ItemsAdd. I can delete records by pressing the delete button.
However now I want the ability to Edit items in the list. How can I tell access I want to edit a record?
