I have a simple Table with the following structure:
ID
Product
Current_Level
Received
Available
How can I retrieve the previous value of the field [Available] and to set this value for the new [Current_Level] ???
Table is named tblLVR
Field is BusinessName
I want to check the previous existence of this name in the table.
I assign a variable tBusVar to the entered name on it's changed event
and write the following code to see if it is already in:-
If DCount("[BusinessName]", "tblLVR", "[BusinessName] = " & tBusVar) > 0 Then
MsgBox "This current record is a Duplicate"
End If
Run_time Error :'2471' : The expression passed as a query parameter produced this error '<Name entered>'
I have managed to develop a database for my small business and am feeling very proud of myself. However, on fine tuning I would like to introduce a Date Picker for ease of use. I have a Check in Date and a Check out Date. At the moment they are working perfectly using the Date/Time field. I want to change that field to a datepicker. I have found out how to insert the date picker and it works great when inserted on a new record BUT all the previous dates in the database change to the current date. Is there a way I can still display the previous dates in the field and also introduce a date picker?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a table full of meter readings. I want to have a field called consumption which looks at the reading just entered for that month and then subtracts the previous months reading for that meter which leaves the consumption.
Can I get a formula that can work this out automatically?
My situation is this. I have 3 tables that I have imported from my mainframe system, between these 3 tables I have the data of product code, description,supplier code, supplier name, order method, and ABC code.
I am trying to create another table that I can capture daily Out Of Stock data for products.
What I would like to do is to enter the product number in the first field of my new table, and then the remaining fields will auto populate with the correct details based on the product data stored in the parent tables that I have imported.
How can this be done?
I've just returned to work after kids and started managing a large Access database related to health, back-tracking over many years.
Currently in filling a form we physically enter:
Apples 2.2
red apple 2.4
red apple cut 2.45
Oranges 5.6
Cucumbers 8.5
Is it possible to get field 2 to automatically fill with a number code due to the text typed in field 1?
FWIW, I'm confident at more basic Access e.g making follow on default value = Dlast("field""table") type stuff but the more complex stuff I haven't touched since Uni over a decade ago and you will need to be gentle while I blow away the cobwebs
I have my Assets form and the primary key is the ChargerID, in this form I have an "Add New Job For This Asset" button, which opens up the Jobs form at a new record.
How do I make it so that the ChargerID field is automatically filled with whatever the previous record was instead of being blank.
For example if I have Charger12345 open in the Asset form, I'd like to click the Add New Job button and it automatically have Charger12345 in the ChargerID field of the Jobs form.

I'm trying to create something like an online banking view that shows the running balance as each transaction occurs. I have tblTransactions with fields AccountNumber, ItemDescription, and TransactionAmount. I'm trying to create something that shows these three fields and a fourth field with the running balance.
So if I initially deposit $100 it will show the first record with TransactionAmount = $100 and RunningBalance = $100. Then the next transaction will subtract the Transactionamount for the new record from the RunningBalance from the previous record to get the RunningBalance for the new record. So if I make a purchase for $2, the AvailableBalance for that record is $98. Is this possible with a query? Here's a picture to describe what I'm talking about ....
I have a table called welding, I want to create a user friendly form for input. The database ultimately wants to go on share point so I am building it in the web database option.
One of the fields is called location, if the location is 'Field' I want 10 more fields to appear for data entry such as weld reason, rail temperature etc . If the location is 'Depot' I want these fields to be hidden as they aren't relevant.how would I do this?
I would like a field's default value to return the date of the previous Monday.
For example:
Now = Tuesday, 08-Apr-14
Return Monday, 07-Apr-14
Further example:
Now = Saturday, 12-Apr-14
Return Monday, 07-Apr-14
I'm trying to update one table's field, via a Form, with certain data from another existing table in my DB when I enter key data in this first form. Example:
Table Equipment ... Some columns... Year, Make, Model, LIcPlate, etc.
Table Fuel ... Some columns... Year, Make, Model, LicPlate, Fuel Dispensed, Milage, etc.
Form for Fuel has Year, Make, Model, LicPlate, Fuel Dispensed, Milage, etc. BTW, it will take Year, Make and Model to fully qualify the search/lookup as there may be more than one occurrence of a Year and Make in the Equipment table, so Model is necessary to fully qualify. . Yes, something like VIN would be a simpler lookup but remembering a VIN is much harder than entering a Year, Make and Model.
In a Form over Table Fuel, I want to have the LicPlate field (possibly other fields as well) automatically updated from Equipment Table when I enter the Year, Make and Model in that form.
I'm assuming the solution involves creating VB code, of some such, via an Event (AfterUpdate) or some such built through the LicPlate field in the Fuel form. A mass Update via SQL is not appropriate.
I want to disable the previous row in the subform the moment I do a new row to prevent the user from editing information other users put before. Is it possible.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a method of setting the default value for new entries to the same value as the previous entry?
For example, I have a quality control information table that stores QC data for different lot numbers. It is annoying to enter in the lot number and product code field over and over again if there are dozens of records per lot number. Is there a way for Access to easily display the previous entry as the default value?

I'm having trouble with a Form and getting a text box entry box (Date entry) default to the date entered on the last record, which is linked to a table.
The only way I can get it to work is to type the date into the Text Box's Default property, for example, #11/13/13".
How to get the correct syntax or code into the Default property of the Text Box to make this work? I only want the entry to change versus the previous record/entry if the User changes / enters a new date.
Hi,
I have a user who would like the value from the last entry into the form's title field text box to show as the default value when he clicks on enter new issue button to bring up a new record. I do not know if this is possible but I thought I would check for him.
I have been looking at some of the solutions to the running sum problem.
The queries I use cannot use the primary key as there are gaps as some filtering has been done with an unmatched query to give me my sample dataset.
From this dataset I have a list of courses and the number of learning hours per each course. This is the field I would like to perform the running sum on.
Its a parameter query and the intention is to email the query the the various schools so no form was necessary.
The solution on microsofts web site wants me to use a form and I dont understand how it works anyway.
Is there a code solution that can use a recordset that doesnt rely on forms?
At present I am reliant on the date which does work but not where a student does two courses on the same day. The forums advice was to use the autonumber but there are gaps in that so that doesnt work. can I generate an autonumber on the fly as an expression and use that in the sub query method?
Fields:
[Date][Person Id][Course Code]
[Course Name][GLH][Running Total][UpliftCode]
[50%][Rule Broken]
what I have so far:
SELECT Pro.Date, Pro.[Person Id], Pro.[Course Code], Pro.[Course Name], Pro.GLH, (Select Sum(Pro1.[GLH]) FROM [QryAllEnrolmentsWithoutMatchingQryWithdrawls] Pro1 WHERE Pro1.[Date]<=Pro.[Date]) AS [Running Total], Pro.UpliftCode, [Running Total]/2 AS [50%], IIf([UpliftCode]="99","No",IIf([GLH]>[50%],"N","Y")) AS [Rule Broken]
FROM QryAllEnrolmentsWithoutMatchingQryWithdrawls AS Pro
ORDER BY Pro.Date;
kind regards in advance
Okay, here's the query as simplified as possible:

I was looking at a ranking formula, and it seems like it compares the field to the previous one, but I am not sure how to apply it to my situation. The ranking formula I was looking at:

Thanks in advance for the help.
Access 2003.
I was just wondering if there was any way to refer to a calculated field in the same query.
For example if the first calculated field was - Total: ([Quantity])*([Price]), could you add another calculated field - Inc Tax: ([Total])*1.175.
At present I am having to type the whole formula in the calculated field again which seems to work for some queries, but not for others, no matter how I fiddle about with the syntax. The other way is to create another query and refer to my previous query. Both these methods seem extremely cumbersome and I was wondering if I have missed something with referring to a prior calculated field.
The query above is just an example, my query formulas are actually fairly long and for editing purposes it can be difficult to correct them.
I am trying to autofill a field based on the value of a previous field on a filtered form. I think the fact the records are filtered is throwing me off. Any help for me?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to make a button on a form that when it is pushed it copies one field from the previous record and then the rest is blank?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working with a form (MainF) ... which has a subform (MainSubF). The subform has buttons that link you to other forms. When you click on one of those buttons, I have a control number that links the two forms by putting a CTR field into the linked form with a ctr defaul that = forms!mainf!ctr.
My problem is that I'd like to use this subform on other forms. However, if I put the subform onto another form such as "MainTwo", none of the buttons on the subform will work because the path is now wrong. Is there a generic way to connect the buttons to whatever form the subform is attached to??

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have 2 tables: A and B with field names:
ID, Title, Link
and one table C with:
ID, Title
The Link in each table "points" on another table.A points on B that points on C.(When you fill in column Link in table A or B, a Lookup table is used so that I can select one of the titles in the linked table).I want to add a new field name called Position in table A and B. The Position is supposed to describe the cells place in the tree.
Example: if A with ID 1 points on B with ID 2, and B with ID 2 points on C with ID 3 then in A Position data field it would say: "3.2.1".I would like it to autofill Position when I add a new title.
