General :: Lookup - Search For A Record By First Or Last Name
Apr 15, 2015
I have a form with a Lookup method. I have it set as this:
Code:
SearchStr = FilterSearch & "(tblCalls.CustFirstName LIKE " & "'" & txtSearchBox.Value & "*' OR tblCalls.CustLastName LIKE '" & txtSearchBox.Value & "*')"
This will allow the user to search for a record by first or last name. But if they try and search with both it will not return anything. I need to to be searchable by first, last, or both.
I have a split database with several attachment fields that work fine.
When I try to create a new attachment field in the BE, upon opening the FE, I get the following error: "The search key was not found in any record."
I have tried several ways: first create the attachment entry in the BE, then I can't open the FE. Create it first in the FE, leave it unbound and then create it in the BE - same error.
I have a bound form which is from tblEmployee, I'd like to have a dataset below (like a splitform but not a split as they have limits) so when i search in the box it gives me say all the smiths - i select for example david smith and it displays his information in the form objects above so they can be edited?
I have a form that looks up office names and will automatically populate a field called office number based upon their selection in the combo box. I have a submit button on click event set up to run a query.
Now, here's where I am running into issues: In this query, I need to pull selected columns of information based upon a multivalue lookup field. This multivalue lookup field is joined with the table that the values populate from.
The form will only have one value stored in the txt box field, and I need to be able to search for all records containing that one value.
This is what I have for code:
SELECT FilePlan.FPName, FilePlan.Description, FilePlan.[File Code], FilePlan.GRS, FilePlan.Schedule FROM Offices INNER JOIN FilePlan ON Offices.[Office Number] = FilePlan.OfficeNumb.Value WHERE (((FilePlan.OfficeNumb.Value) Like "*" & [Forms]![RetCutOff]![txtOffNumb] & "*"));
Do I need to string multiple queries together to make this work, or is it just not possible?
I'm having Table with some universities name and i want web link address for all universities. Take university from table1 in column1 and search on google page and return first link of the search page and save into column2...
I have a form which has a combobox called Task_Ref which looks up values in a table column.
I would like to be able to set the tickbox value of tickbox called P1 to True if the combobox contains the word "test", each entry on the combobox selection may vary such as:-
Test number 1 Yesterdays Test
As long as the word "Test" appears I would like the above to happen?
I was thinking of something along the lines of:-
If InStr(Task_Ref.Value, "Test") > 0 Then P1.Value = True Else P1.Value = False End If End Sub
I currently have a database with a few search forms. I recently attempted to add a box on one of my search forms to search 3 cells of a record for a key word. What happens is when I go to search, say for P0442, it does not bring up all of the records that contain that keyword in the 3 cells I have outlined. If I step down the code in the OR boxes of the query, it seems to work better but then for some reason my other search criteria , (Tracking number etc) does not work. I will upload the database for reference. I am currently working on the Search(View Only) and that is where you will find the query to work on.
II have been working in Access 2010 and by no means would I call myself an expert. I have two different tables, one is called 'JobsList' and the other one is called 'StatHolidays'. On the Jobslist form, I have a field that requires a ship date, however, I don't want to allow the user to select the dates listed in the StatHolidays table. Is there a way that when a user picks a date that is listed in StatHolidays that a pop up box will say "This date is Christmas, do not choose this as a Ship date". The 'StatHolidays' table has a field for a date and for a description of the holiday.
I have a split db and there's a form which has a combo box and i type the name into the combo box and it looks up that record. this whole process is taking a long time. i have about 18700 records, but i thought that if you split a db then it's supposed to run a lot faster. currently it's a good ten seconds before it finds the person and then another ten after i hit enter before it brings the record up. any ideas?
I have a problem with my database I have a combo box that will search for my record. Actually its working I input the specific number it goes to the specific record. But I want, if there no existing record in my database it will display a Messagebox that "No record Found" I try to put a code in a macro builder in a after update property field but nothing happened.
Expression code that it will display the msgbox if there's no record found.
the given code from macro builder is attached. I try to have an if else statement but I dont know how to not equal that giver conditional expression.
I've developed a multi user DB. When a user is keying in a record I want to be able to give them the ability to click on a button and the system automatically looks at two value from the previous record they keyed. There is a text box that contains their user ID so I can use this as a reference to look up their last record (I don't want them to take other users last records).
The fields are StartTime and EndTime. So I want the startTime and EndTime from their previous record to be dropped into the current record(without physically going backwards on screen).
I wanted to create a field lookup with values that I specify, not on the table sheet, but on the form. User can click on a text box or combo box and can select a list of value that I specify, not values that are listed on a table but ones that I type in, in the form.
i am working on a school database, in data base i have create two tables tblAccounts and tblTransaction and a form frmTransaction .
tblAccounts contain two fields GLcodes Description and frmTransaction contain Glcode transaction type debit credit date narratives
in form when i enter a glcode, lookup field match the code from tblaccounts and shows the description in form against gl code.But i am facing a problem when i enter a wrong gl code my form accept it and move to the next field and when i leave blank field of glcode same problem that i am facing, i want that , when i enter a wrong glcode in a form amsgbox will apear that asking for correct glcode.
I've managed to use the lookup wizard to show me two fields in the drop down list, first name and last name, but when i select a record I can only see the first name in the cell, not both.
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)
I have one table with employees and positions. Each position has a specific rate which is stored in another table (table2). Since the rates of the positions are changing, I want each time the employee get paid with the correct rate.
The problem is that I do not want to lose historic data since I want the rate to calculate the salary. I thought that the best way is to look up for the rate according to the position and the period that is valid.
I have attached herewith a small example with the two table that I want to use the relationship.
I have a table with some combo selections with row source No;Yes, bound column 1, column count 1, and default value "No", limit to list set to yes, required = yes, allow zero length = no.
When I create a new record though, all of the combos show 0, and I have to select No or Yes manually. The requirement is that No is the default value..
I have been editing the service call management database that comes with office XP.
I have a table called "Workorders" with fields: WorkorderID (primary key) CustomerID
And another table called "Workorders by Customer" with fields CustomerID (primary key)
I want to be able to have an input form where I input a workorderID which then opens the "Workorders by customer form" by customerID which relates to the WorkorderID in "Workorders" which is typed in the input box.
Im only a novice and its the code part that im struggling with.
I've got stuck in preparation of this sales query. The primary sales table contains a mix of Canadian and the US detail invoice sales records. All sales records are in their native currencies The secondary lookup table contains daily US/CAN foreign exchange rates (FX).
I need to multiply every $US sales record (marked with U) with the FX rate in order to convert it to the Canadian currency. Unfortunately, this FX lookup table is missing over 50 daily rates in the last two years and as a result I cannot match them date-by-date with the sales table.
As a workaround, it is acceptable to use the previous FX rate in the table. The previous rate can be one or more days before the transaction occurred.
Attached is a sample database with the query that I've already built. The query contains two sample US records that are missing the FX rate on Jan 6. The FX rate of $1.0639 that needs to be applied to it should come from Jan 3rd entry.

I have got a a form storing all employee's information and on that form I have a lookup field which looks up all the records in the "Qualification table" and the user can select multple qualifications. What I want to add to the lookup field is a data box so you can select a qualification and then enter the date that it expires (different for expiry date for each employee) How do I do this?
I have added the date field to the qualification table but when I create the lookup field on the form it shows the qualifications and a blank column next to it which data can't be enteed into.
i have developed an application in access 2010 . and split into front and back end . now i want to add more tables in back end and i need to define lookup list in table definition from the query presently in front end . when i get into lookup list and query builder doesnt show front end content ... how to solve this problem ?
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.
