I have a report that is based on a query I have made. It currently shows the values as kept in the table. It is for a MAR sheet. Here is how it looks...
Breakfast 0
Lunch 0
Teatime 2
Bedtime 1
I want it to show blank for each 0 that is shown. I have tried an Iif statement to do this but it doesn't seem to work.
I would like to input data into textbox and it will automatically open up a new blank textbox for another data.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've got a text box, populated by a query.
(it looks like a list because it's tabular view)
you can always see the empty record... any way you can stop it showing?
or failing that, I have a dblclick event on all the textboxes. But It doesn't work with the blank record..
this is quite frustrating.. any help please?
OK, I have been searching around on the fourm for over an hour now...I give up. If this is some where else, I am sorry.
I have a database of maintenance data. There are several columns that are usually filled in, some records have some columns blank. They are formated text because they hold letters and numbers (see pic).
I am using a form to query the table...no problem. The form has text boxes the user filter down the data
The problem comes are with the results of the query. Any record that has a blank column is not retuned. I am using "Like" so that the user can enter in partial codes. I know "like" won't return "null" records.... Help!
Things I have tried:
1)IIF(form field is blank, return table field, else use like command to filter) - returns nothing!
2)Like "*" & [Forms]![Fleetwide_data_Request]![MAL_CD] & "*" returns all records without blanks (i.e. missing data)
what else can I do?
Thanks
Have a strange problem. I've created a form with multiple subforms and if there is a record for the subform to display everything looks fine. However, if there is no record for the subform it does not show anything on the screen or if printed.
I would like for the fields on the subforms to show no matter what but I can't figure out why it doing this. I've checked the display parameters and everything is set right.
How do I make the forms show no matter if there is data to display?
Any help is greatly appreciated -
Thanks
Hi,
Each client has either an entry with a correspondence number or a notes number. So, the table would look somewhat like this:
Client: 333, Correspondence: 1, Notes: Blank
Client: 333, Correspondence: 2, Notes: Blank
Client: 333, Correspondence: Blank, Notes: 3
Client: 333, Correspondence: Blank, Notes: 4
How would I make a report that will make it look like this
Client: 333, Correspondence: 1, Notes: 3
Client: 333, Correspondence: 2, Notes: 4
Thanks! Hope that was clear.

I have one combo box bounded with two fields, Id and Description through a query.
I entered a new id in bonded table but for some reason I don't want to enter description now.
And if I delete the entered id then I will loss that unique id which is using for description, which I don't want.Now the problem is one blank space showing in my combo box.
So what criteria I should use in query criteria to avoid blank spaces?
I'm working with a report that totals the number of times a topic is returned from a query. If a topic is not returned at all, i don't want it to show at all. Currently it is showing a blank field for that topic name and blanks in the count as well. Here's the filter i've put in to pull the right data out of my query: =Sum(IIf([Caller Used Resources]="No",1,0))

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a query which selects a material ID and material name from one table and the associated manufacturer, supplier, and packaging type from three other tables. Some of the manufacturer, supplier, and packaging data were imported from an Excel spreadsheet and did not have data for those fields, so those fields are blank. When I run the query, I only get the records which have all fields filled out. How can I get the records where the material ID and material name are filled in, but the manufacturer, supplier, or packaging type are blank? Here is the query I'm using currently:
Code:
SELECT tblMaterialSpecifications.ID, tblMaterialSpecifications.Critical, tblMaterialSpecifications.MaterialSupply, tblManufacturer.Manufacturer, tblSupplier.Supplier, tblPackaging.PackageType
FROM tblPackaging INNER JOIN (tblSupplier INNER JOIN (tblManufacturer INNER JOIN tblMaterialSpecifications ON tblManufacturer.ID = tblMaterialSpecifications.ManufacturerID) ON tblSupplier.ID = tblMaterialSpecifications.SupplierID) ON tblPackaging.ID = tblMaterialSpecifications.PackagingID
WHERE (((tblMaterialSpecifications.ActiveInactive)=-1))
ORDER BY tblMaterialSpecifications.Critical, tblMaterialSpecifications.MaterialSupply;
I am trying to show a certain subform based on whether or not a field is blank or null. This database is not owned by me--it's what we use to run queries and reports on the data on a centralized server for the library. It's not even in the same city--so changing the tables is not an option for me.
So, I have a subform (subform1) that is linked to the main form based on 2 fields (BibID and Item_Enum). The trouble is that the second field (Item_Enum) is sometimes blank, so the subform will not display. So I created another subform (subform2), which is a duplicate of the first one, but this time only linked on the first field (BibID). So, if that second field (Item_Enum) is blank, I want subform2 to display and subform1 to be hidden. If the second field (Item_Enum) is not blank, I want subform1 to display, and subform2 to be hidden.
I've tried putting the VBA code on different events for the form, but I can't get it to work consistently.
There are two problems, one of which I think I have fixed--but I would prefer a better solution. The VBA code doesn't run unless the form is newly loaded. I've tried placing the VBA code on different form events, but nothing works. I want the code to activate whenever a new record is displayed. The work around is that the form IS newly loaded every time the user scans a barcode for a new book. That works now, but if I need to change the way the user looks up new records, this might not work anymore.
The second problem is that the VBA code doesn't display subform1 when Item_Enum is blank. It doesn't display subform2 either, but that's the desired result.
Private Sub Form_Load()
If Me.ITEM_ENUM = "*" Then
Me.subform2.Visible = False
Me.subform1.Visible = True
Else
Me.subform2.Visible = True
Me.subform1.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
I've tried changing the condition to Me.Item_Enum = null, and changing the false/true results accordingly, but that didn't work either. In that case, only subform2 is visible, whether it should be or not.
In the Purchase Order details form a Supplier has to be chosen via a combo box. Based on that another combo box in the subform displays products only from this supplier (Products table is linked to supplier table).
I managed to let the subform combo show only relevant products using criteria referring to the main form combo box. Also other product data will show accordingly in text boxes. So far so good.
However when I close the form and reopen it the subform combo box is blank, other text boxes still show the right values. If I remove the filter criteria for the subform combo then all fields show all data correctly. (However the combo box is unfiltered again 8-/)
So somehow the 'criteria' prevents the combo to show the value that was previously chosen.
My form was working fine but when I added an extra tab it started showing as completely blank in design view. When I deleted the tab I had added I still was left with the same problem!
I've attached an image of the form properties. I want to use the form to enter data so it needs to show even if there are no records.
I had read that it could be if there is no data but typing data in the tables hasn't worked either.
I have a report that should only show 1 page yet I have 2 and one is blank . I cannot find out why?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've created a "table" with all my cases which includes date, hospital, surgeon, etc. The hospital and surgeon column have always shown the actual name in text (dropdown) and now all of a sudden, it's just showing the ID only. Now when I go to add a new case, I have to know the number instead of the dropdown just working and being able to select a hospital name, etc. I'm not sure how to get it back to showing the actual name instead of the id number associated with it.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI apologise in advance for my newbish question - I'm very green at Access. I'm trying to build a contact database for our company that lists Jobs done by customer.
I'll confess I "borrowed" the sample database provided with Access to help me out - which has worked well up until this issue.
The problem I am having is when I am working on our "Client Service History" form. (Basically the Workorders by Customer from the template - I can take a screen grab or something if it helps).
This form includes a sub-table which lists the WorkOrder ID by customer, the Date Entered, the Job Type, the Engineer and whether it was chargeable. The latter three options are choices controlled by combo boxes from the Workorders Form/Table. Where the status for "Chargeable" always comes up correctly, the Job Type and Engineer always show a number - which I presume is the ID of the label of each type - I.e. "5" refers to "Warranty Repair".
There are separate Data Tables for Engineers (EmployeeID) and Job Types (JobTypes). How do I get it to display each item correctly; as a summary of jobs done for each customer?
Any help would be particularly appreciated!!! :D
I have an unbound listbox "Needs", and in the onclick event have the following code which works great if I have more than one item selected, but if I only have one item selected, it does not put it in the text box "ServiceText".

Dim ctl As Control
Dim strStart As String, strEnd As String
Dim aryList As String
Dim varSelected As Variant

To cut a long story short, i've got a union query that is a full outer join of 2 tables.
Anyway, the results i have got back needed formatting to no decimal places.
How do i do that?
I've tried leaving it as it is and formatting it in the report, but it still doesn't format and i can't total it up.
It's like it is showing as a text and not number.
Is there a way of converting the result to a number, particularly in a sql query.
Hi,
I have a form that has several text boxes that correspond to a cell in a row. One of the columns contains just numbers 1-300. Now what I need is a combo box that contains the numbers 1-300 and when one of those numbers is selected I need it to import all the information from the same row into the correct text boxes.
For example when the number 3 is selected it will take the row with the number 3 in it, take all of the cells and import them into the right text box.
Thanks a bunch!
I have a report which when I open it by clicking the button in the form shows what looks like Chinese text in the memo field. To open the report the following is in the event properties for the referencing button
Code:
Private Sub cmdPrintSumReg_Click()
Dim strWhere As String
If Me.Dirty Then 'Save any edits.
Me.Dirty = False
[Code] ...
When I open the same report from the reports menu on the left of the database it is just fine. But obviously it is showing information for all contracts and not the any one contract.
I haven't changed anything in the table that contains the memo field and this only started happening yesterday afternoon after using this db for over a year.
I found an earlier post in this forum with a similar problem but the only difference I see is that the user changed the field from a text to a memo. I haven't.
I can alway make a query like the following one to table and return the records:
SELECT * FROM people WHERE PhoneNo<>"";
However, it returns nothing while it should return a lot of records if I make a query like this:
SELECT * FROM people WHERE PhoneNo="";
The PhoneNo file is of text type. As I know, this field is added after the MS database has been put into use for some time.
Can anyone please explain this to me?
Thanks,

I have a people table; Ethnicity Table; Program Type Table; Attendance Table.
I enter the people into the people table then enter people into the attendance table with lookup for name from the people table and a lookup for program type from program type table and enter date attended. I then run a query on the attendance table to remove duplicates. I created a form from the attendance query there are 3 headers Program, Ethnicity, Name. but the program type comes up as the ID number and not the text name.
The Ethnicity did the same thing but when I added the Ethnicity from the people table to the ethnicity header it show up as the name and I hide the box with the number but when I add the program type from the program type table to the program header is changes the source of the report to the program type table and then nothing shows up. It did not do that when I added the ethnicity type from the ethnicity table to the ethnicity header.
How can I replace a '0' to a blank space and '1' to 'X' in 'Text Box' in a report ? The 'Data Type' is 'Yes/No' in the table.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am completely new to Pivot Tables/Charts?
Basically i have two totals:
Value 1 which is the number of working Employees
and Value 2 which is the total number of Employees
Both are subject to change but my main problem is that Value 2 (Total of Employees) i want to display as 100% in a chart and Value 1 is the percentage of employees utilized.
I have the calculation working fine (Value 1/Value 2).
But if for example i have 35 employees as Value 2, how do i make that show as 100% in the chart?
I get things like 35 or 3500%?
I have played about endlessly changing values etc but just cant get it.
