Using Access and Outlook 2010. I have a database that tracks Contracts for our University. One of the fields it tracks is Expiration Date.
Is there a way to have Access prompt Outlook to send an email to my boss when the contract is a month or within a month from expiring?I'm assuming when the database is opened it would have to run a query for expiration dates expiring within one month of today's date (which i know how to do).
I just don't know if it's possible to generate an email or some kind of message with those records/contract numbers displayed? I should also note my boss is the only one who uses this database so even if the email notice isn't possible, is there a way to show a message of what contracts are expiring soon when he opens the DB?

I have have a form with 4 subforms in it, one of the subforms is based on a filtered query . For a reason I can not work out I cannot get it to requery when I add a new record.
To add a new record I select from a combo box and use a command button to save the record
I have tried using this in the buttons on click event
Code:
Forms.trialcatalogueF!TrialCompetitorsSF!competitorsSF.Form.Requery
with no result, however it does kinda work in the combo's after update event, just not until I select another value.

I have been working on a bound form that I can't seem to get working.
It records deliveries and what I am trying to achieve is after the form has been filled in the user will click a save button where the record will be added to the table and a record automatically printed via a report and emailed to the shop manager, but i keep getting the error "No Current record" no matter what way I try to do it, I have tried using to run the report. Is the best way for me to accomplish this o change it to an unbound for and run an insert query on click?
I have attached a copy of what I have been working on : DatabaseDelivery.accdb

I want to open an existing record via a form and then edit that data but save the form as a new record. Basically a form used for handover/takeover process where most of the data remains the same but the new form is the basis for the next handover/takeover.

I am trying to create a duplicate of a certain record in a table so that the user can then edit the new record - or old record even as it doesn't matter - as long as one of them is original. The idea is that any revisions / changes are stored the user may of made.

After I enter data into one field in a record I would like the form to save the record when I move to another field in the same record. It seems that the record is only saved when I exit it entirely. Is there a way to save a record when moving between fields in that record? Can this be done without using an Event Procedure for each field?

Could anyone of you give me some sugguestions on designing a nice/efficent Data Entry interface (Form design) for adding new records?:
I have bound a Form with a table and linked all the textbox with the relevant fields in the table. I created a add new record button through the wizard provided by MS-Access as: DoCmd.GoToRecord,, acNewRec.
While, each time when I opened that Data Entry Interface, the current always pointed to the first one rather than leaving the blank field for data entry. Even I changed the value in those textbox, the system didn't create a new record in the table at all, only modifying the first record.
I know how to write the VBA code to open table and add new records by retrieving data from the Form interface, but I wonder whether there is more efficent solution by combining the default function/facilities from MS-Access itself and some VBA code. Also, it can have some validation before storing data into the tables.
Many Thanks

We have a table, JobRegister that people enter information on using a form, FrmOrderEntry
I would like to run a check when a serial number is entered in the field SerialNo to see if the same serial number exists where CompletionDate is null.
this would stop duplicate open orders being put on the system, or new orders being entered where the previous order hasn't been completed.

I've got a data entry form bound to one table. The form has four buttons:
- Clear Fields
- Cancel
- Save and exit
- Save and add another (which should save the user input to the subform/table, clear the input fields, and allow the user to add another record)
I can't quite seem to get the "Save and add another" button to work. When I put some information in the input fields and click the button, it saves it to the subform/table perfectly, but when I try to do it again, it just edits the last record (the one just created).
How can I get that button to place the information from the input fields in a new record every time?
The _Click event for the button looks like this:
Code:
If Len(Me.field1 & Me.field2 & Me.field3) > 0 Then
Me.Refresh
btnClear_Click
DoCmd.Save
End If

I have 2 form, form1 and form 2 (picture attached)
In Form 1
(main form) there are "reference" field with key pressed event
then call form 2 (list of reference that user can choose)
In form 2
the problem is, when "enter" key pressed (keypress event), selection will move to next record
so the data that transferred to form 1 is wrong (next record)
The question is : how to save current record in form 2 before enter and send the data to form 1

Is it possible to have a 2 step confirmation process.
I have a yes/no control box to confirm that the record is OK or correct.
Is it possible to have a second process where by I can lock the record from erroneous data entry or editing? Like a "Post" in accounting.

I have a database set thus
Clients (the main form)
ClientsID (PK)
blah blah
Information and Referral (a check box)
blah blah
blah blah
ClientIR (the form that opens up when I & R is checked)
IR ID (PK)
ClientsID (FK to the above form)
Requests (a lookup referencing to IRCategory)
The code is set up so when the I R box is checked, form will open, and unchecking it will delete the I R record of that Client.
The problem is when the IR Box is already open, the request has been selected, I cannot save it as Access says a record is required in the Clients form. There are only two buttons, one goes on to next requests (one client can have more than one requests), other saves and closes.
The Client form is already coded so it will save the Client's record before opening the IR Form, and either button will save the IR record as well.
I had referential intergrity turned on. Turning it off only gave me weird results (I was able to input records, but Access didn't autofill the ClientID in the IR records, and looking at Clients returns a blank IR record)
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

I have a form for entry and some fields are computed or result of a query from another table. I have a function that looks up a value from another table like so
************************************************** ********
Public Function GetTargetType() As Variant
GetTargetType = DLookup("type", "tblFormulations", "[tblFormulations!formulation]=Forms![frmNmsConsumptionEntry]![formulation]")
End Function
************************************************** ********
Which works fine when I test in the immediate window.Then I have this form event. This however does not insert this value when I am adding records using my continuous form.
************************************************** ********
Private Sub Form_BeforeInsert(Cancel As Integer)
Me!target_group = GetTargetType()
'Forms!frmNmsConsumptionEntry!target_group = GetTargetType()
'[tblNmsConsumption.target_group] = GetTargetType()
End Sub
************************************************** ********
making sure I can insert this value once retrieved.

I have a form that lists records in a table. I would like to have a hyperlink beside each record that will open the data entry form and navigate to that specific record. Right now, the use can only open the form for all records and has to use the record navigation buttons to find the desired record.

I have a form which contains one subform. On the subform I have a command button which saves the record just entered. On the main form I have a "refresh form data" button which updates the main form so that the calculated controls can show the correct results based on the data just entered?
Can anyone tell me how I can get the "save record" button in the subform to subsequently refresh the data in the main form as well, thus saving a button???
Many thanks.
Peter

I have a database studentreview. with the name of the student, the location of the student the course and the status of the course. What I am trying to do is when a condition is meet the name of the course "Anatomy" is meet and the status "Done" is meet I want to auto-generate a new record with the same student name with the same town and the course will be "anatomy 2" and status "not done". The name of the student and the location are linked tables with the studentreview table. This is what is did with a record set but clearly I am doing something wrong since nothing is happening
Public Sub AddRecordset()
Dim db As Database
Dim rs As Recordset
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tblStudentreview")

How to make a report generate on a per record basis?
Basically I need to produce a report of all logged calls for a particular customer and be able to print it out. but I am unsure of how to generate this on a per customer basis would it be a case of requesting the user to specify before running? and if so how would I go about that?

Hi -
Suppose I have a generic query that returns a group of records.
Is there some way to generate a field containing the number sequence of each record? E.g. if there are 10 records, generate the numbers 1 through 10?
Must be a simple way to do this, I'm just a bit dense today...
Thanks,
-g

we have got a table with the vehicle details with a sub forms (main Vehicle Details, Subform Booking details)
we cannot allocate a car until a week previous to the dates required.
we are using a recored (To booked) that we can store all the dates in, the idea really is to have a button we can click that brings up the parameter requesting the REG PLATE for the car that when entered will cut and copy the booking details from the NOT BOOKED into the corrosponding vehicle is this possible?
I dont mind a button beside each record in the sub form but really needs to cut + copy the fields beside it
Field Names are:
FirstName
Surname
Date From
Time From
DateTill
TimeTill

I have
Table called "Products"
Field 1= "Product ID" which is a text field (PK) but numbers are used (ie 1 -20)
Field 2= Products -showing our list of 20 products
When I enter a new product, currently I have to look in the table to find the last ID used then use the next one available. I have created a form to be used for data entry to enter new products
What I am trying to do is :- 1, have the form open at data entry level but still able to scroll and see all records and 2, Have the form auto generate the next number available. For example, I have 20 products entered so when the form opens to enter a new product, the ID is automatically at number 21.
I wondered if its because the field is a text field or I am trying to insert the code in the wrong place.
