Im trying to sum a value within subform able before I even start I get ####Error as I have put in the control source the rule to create the sum
Code:
=Sum([TempTable].[hours])
I then have a function when another value is added it requires the text box which holds the sum value.
Currently, I use ACCESS to track reservations for various types of events. When I want to make nametags, I download the "attendee" query that I've already set up to EXCEL and then merge into a WORD document. Is there a way to set up in ACCESS so the labels can be printed straight from the database? I've tried, but I can't get the labels to space out properly (EX: 2 across and 6 down) even though I put the correct label # in there.

View 2 Replies View RelatedCan anybody help me build the last table in my database? I have taught myself Access – and can usually get by with a little help from this forum. I have been trying for days to try and solve this !!!
The database is designed to manage feedback questionnaires from attendees of training courses.
I have attached the relationship diagram.
- A course may run for several days. The details of the course are held in the table ‘Courses’. During a course, attendees may be asked to fill in several Questionnaires
- An Attendee is a Person that attends a Course. Attendees are held in the table ‘Attendees’ and their details are held in the table ‘Person’.
- There is a ‘Library’ of questions that sit in the table ‘Questions’
- The questions can be assembled into “Standard Questionnaires”. These sit in the table called “Questdesign” which is a junction table. Assembling a Standard Questionnaire involves using a form to pick questions and give them an order (Qnumber). I HAVE DONE THIS.
- A specific “Questionnaire” is a “Standard Questionnaire” that is used on a specific course. The list of Questionnaires is held in the table “Questionnaire”
- Scoresheet is the junction table between Attendee and Questionnaire (an Attendee on a course may fill in several Questionnaires and a Questionnaire may be filled in by lots of Attendees.)
I now need a table (Scores) in which to put all the scores to the questions (in other words, the scores of the questions on the Questionnaires that are completed by the Attendees on a Course.)
At the end of the day I am aiming to have a form in which:
The Attendee number is entered and all the person’s details are filled in automatically) – I HAVE DONE THIS
The Questionnaire number is entered and all the course details are filled in automatically – I HAVE DONE THIS
A Scoresheet ID is filled in (Autonumber) - I HAVE DONE THIS
A subform appears which shows the right set of questions and question numbers for the appropriate Questionnaire – with a blank column so that the user can fill in the scores which get stored in the Scores Table. - I CAN'T DO THIS !!!
I cannot work out where to link my Scores table and how to build a query that drives the correct behaviour of the subform
I hope I have explained this clearly. I would be so grateful for any help. This Forum is fabulous.
Many thanks

Using Access 2000 is it possible to specify a starting location ie (c:) and using VBA search every sub folder from this point for files ending .mdb or .xls?
I want to be able to build a table with an record showing the file name and directory for each file found.
Any help most appreciated.

Access 2000: How can I populate a two field table (1. Table Name 2. Field Name) with the name of ever field within every table in my database using VBA code?

I have been building my DB and learning everything from scratch. If anybody could give me any advice as to where I may be going astray, it would be much appreciated as I feel like I've hit a brick wall. I run a building firm and need a DB to look after customer information, write estimates, invoices and ultimately do the accounts.
I think my DB needs are very basic to start with and I'm guessing the system only needs to be fairly simple and straightforward. So far my DB has:-
•Customer form with an in-built Estimate subform - this form gives me a brief outline of the customer and how many estimates I have for him.
•If you then double click on an estimate number (in the Estimate subform) this takes you to my Items form (when I create an estimate normally in Word, I have to break jobs down into their components and price each item individually, hence I made an Items table). Each item has an Item Cost.
•I then run the report “Estimate” and have set up a total calculation box on the report ready to print it out for the customer.
My problem is that I would like to know how I can get the Estimate Total to appear in my Estimates Table and Estimates Subform. So far I have achieved making a crosstab query to calculate the Estimate Total (Amount) for each specific Estimate ID, but I cannot get the Total from the Crosstab Query into the Estimate Table, from which I would probably be able to get it into the Estimate Subform. I have a suspicion I need to build an expression in the Estimate Subform - but.....
Once I am over this problem I will want to turn Estimates into Invoices and have that data displayed in my Estimate Subform too, although I think I have got a good idea of how to do this, I would again be open to comments/advice if offered.
Thanks Steve
Hello!I have a table, with quantities in a field that I need to split in batches of 25, to build a new table. Example:object price qtyblah1 1.00 144blah2 2.00 76My results need to look like this:object price qtyblah1 25.00 25blah1 25.00 25blah1 25.00 25blah1 25.00 25blah1 25.00 25blah1 19.00 19 (5x25+19=144)blah2 50.00 25blah2 50.00 25blah2 50.00 25blah2 2.00 1 (3x25+1=76)I've been able to build a new table based on these values of 25 etc using MOD, but it's making columns. How can I build a new table and make new RECORDS using MODULUS (or another?) technique instead?? I hope this makes sense, and I hope someone can help.Cheers
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to build a table relationship, however when I enforce referential integrity, I keep receiving the message: "No unique index found for the referenced field of the primary table".
I checked and I have no duplicates in the primary table or secondary table.I will set up the two tables as thus: 1. Master table - People Who Eat 2. Secondary table - a table for all people who eat pizza.
I am trying to link my pizza table to the Poeple Who Eat table. I have created my own primary key for each table (an account number). My secondary table is much smaller in population than the People Who Eat table (which would include data from other subgroups). I am trying to get the 'yes'/'no'/'uncertain' from the secondary table into the primary table without manual entry.
I have searched all over the web and have not been able to find why the tables will not link. I am new to Access, so there may be something I am overlooking. Is there a way to get this information from the other table other than building a relationship?
When I click the button "open new order" after that my form it's open with new id and it's ok, but when I push the key "F5" then Ms Access goes to another record (no new record). Why is that?
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to requery a subform 'in the background' before repainting / refreshing the screen?
I have a subform which has multiple controls, some of which have conditional formatting applied to them.
The problem is, whenever I open the tab that contains the subform, there is a momentary 'flicker' as the CF calculates and highlights the appropriate controls. I have a requery command in the change event of the tab control (rather than recalculate the entire form).
Code:
Private Sub tabAllFunctions_Change()
Select Case Me.tabAllFunctions.Value
Case 0 ' Page 0
Me.sfmSubForm0.Requery
Case 1 ' Page 1
Me.sfmSubForm1.Requery
Case 2 ' Page 2
Me.sfmSubForm2.Requery
End Select
End Sub
It would be neater if the subform waited until all of the necessary requerying / recalculating were done first before showing the final result. Admittedly this would introduce a short delay (we are talking a fraction of a second here) but it would make the output appear more stable rather than seeing controls flick between colours while the recalculation takes place. For me, this would be preferable.
How I can 'pause' the screen update while the Requery takes place to remove the momentary flicker?
Is there a way to append a pivot table to a table or possibly make a query based on a pivot table? I need to get a count of Part Numbers and I need the average price for all these parts. Additionally I want to ignore a count of less than 3.
Also I am having trouble filtering on the count in the pivot table... haha, so I was gonna Query on it later on.
I have made a database where i plan the company's resources in form of hours. The idea is that every employee will put in their own data for the upcoming 4 weeks. I do this in a table where i store employeeID, weeknumber, year, PlanneHoursUsed, ActualHoursUsed.
This again i take into a pivot chart to see a forecast for the next month.
I have somehow achieved to get up a graph where i for every month can see the sum of all planned hours and all used hours (See attachment). BUT; my boss wants to see a running total instead of a "weekly image". On the graph attached one can see the numbers for every week. But i would want to see instead a running total.. For instance week1 then week2 would be the sum of 1 and 2, week 3 would be 1 ad 2 and 3 and so on. So the graph would be inclining throughout the year.
Is this possible with functions with my current data? Or do i need to have another field in my table where i store a running total? (This would be tricky when we get a lot of data and when somebody changes an old value...)
Without putting a /CMD parameter value in the command line, is there any way to detect in VBA that the current state of the application is that it is executing from a scheduled task ?

I have a form that users enter billing logs in. There is a button users can click to the right of their billing data that opens another form where they can enter details regarding the billing log. Beside this button is a check box that shows them if details for this particular billing log has been created.
I can not for the life of me work out how to get the check box to update with a check after I enter Billing details without opening and closing the form again. I felt I have tried requery and refresh in all ways I have seen here, yet it is not working.
The main form is frmDslEnter and the billing log is entered in a subform from here called tblSessions subform. The checkbox on this subform is called chkProgressEntered, and it's control source is =Not IsNull([DSLIDNumber]). I tried putting the refresh on the Close button on the Billing Details page, on the Got Focus of the subform and the main form and haven't had any luck.
My database is slowly coming together. For the final part of this phase i would like to create a shortcut on each users desktop which runs a summary report of information within my database.
I have criteria set so upon opening the report the user is asked for which address they wish to see information from which works great. But I do not want users to have access to the database, I just want them to be able to click a shortcut, be asked what address they are looking for and for the report to ping up in a 'Print Preview' type layout so information can be seen and displayed but not altered. All users have the access program.
I've Saved an Access 2010 File as an .accde version that opens Ok however none of the buttons (eg; delete record, go to first record, next record) that I placed on the form work at all (the standard record selectors at the bottom of the form still work). All the buttons work fine in the .accdb version - only the .accde version that doesnt work...
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen designing a table I've created a field and set its lookup properties to display a combobox with a row source that returns a DISTINCT set of values already entered into the field.
After a row insert or row update the combobox needs to be required to ensure its list is complete.
If I create a form to display my datasheet this is easy. But I'd prefer to enter data directly into the table datasheet directly. I need to enter simple data into about 20 different tables and I'd prefer not to create 20 forms unless it's really necessary.
The lookup wizard generated entries similar to those I'd previously created manually, except the wizard generated a couple of extra settings that appeared briefly that were not part of the regular set of lookup tab properties. These additional settings referred to 'update propagation'. Once they'd disappeared I couldn't see any way to get them back..
(I am using Access 2013)
I have a form that loads when the database is open, and the form has buttons etc. that leads to queries and reports in the database. (Queries open in a form). Since most queries take a while to load, I was wondering if there is a way to Pop up a message box stating "Please Wait, Query is running..." (or something like that), and once the form opens the MsgBox should close automatically. (The user should not have to hit Ok button.)
Most users of this database would have restricted access such that they would not have navigation pane and toolbar visible - hence I want to make it a touch more interactive when a process is running...also if someone is new to access they might not notice that taskbar status and I don't want them thinking the program is stuck etc..
I am new to access.
On occasion my access database all of a sudden begins to operate very slowly, I notice the queries take a much longer time to run.
Last week it suddenly began to operate very slowly after idling in excess of 30 mins
Today when I change the screen to design view and then back to form view once again it begins to operate very slowly. (yesterday was working fine on my desktop at home, I have not made any changes to the database with exception to saving and using the file this morning on the shared drive at work) If I shut down and re open it operates well but once again changing to design view causes the same issue. Sometimes compact and repair rectifies sometimes not.
Can anyone tell me how to get a running balance on a report. I know how to create a running total, by setting the "running sum" property of a text box to "Over all".
I can't however see how I can adapt this to give a running balance (as in a bank statement for example). Attempts to do so end up in failure!!
Many thanks in advance.

Hi
Ive made a booking system in Access and need to convert it so it can handle multiple users on a network. The problem i have is that when someone selects a block of time on one computer i need the other systems to lock out those blocks on their screens. I have a table which records each user's activities so i could always use the On Counter event on the form to repeatedly check if there is any blocks to be locked out according to data in that table. The obvious problem with this is the huge overhead.
Is there any other way round this? or is there any way of detecting changes to data in a table so that i can run code to lock out the blocks only when theres a change?
Any help or suggestions much appreciated! :)
Hi all,
I am trying to update a table in a database (Lets call that DbNew). I want that when DbNew form is loaded it automatically updates its underlying table (lets call it TblNew) by running a make table query (called "coversheet") that is located in another database (call that DbOld). DbNew and dbOld are all on a network and I dont have total access on DbOld (but I have created the make table query "coversheet in DbOld).
I should also state that DbNew is bound to TblNew and I am not interested in keeping the old table in DbNew. Information is frequently updated in DbOld and all I am interested in is loading the most current info in DbNew so the current table can be deleted upon loading DbNew and a new one created. Here is what I tried doing and I have it in the form load event of DbNew. This however returns an error (Runtime Error 3010. That TblNew already exists)
Dim db As Database
Set db = OpenDatabase("\networkdbOld.mdb")
db.Execute ("Coversheet")
DoEvents
Set db = Nothing
End Sub
P/S: I am not good at access in anyway I should state.
Thank you for taking the time to read.
I have now a database where I made a query that will show me all clients I can charge when there is a end date and an account number mentioned. I have also in a table where I put if the client is already charged. This is a check box that gives me yes or no. Is it possible to run the query and once those selected show up, to also add a yes to the table so next time I run the query the ones charged will not be charged again.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a running total query that seems to run but when I try to total the query results then Access will be "Not Responding". I tried to change it to a Make Table query because I need to use the running total result in another query. So I created a table but when I try to run the make table query it just says "Run Query" at the bottom. Here is the query:
SELECT [OTMissing].[Employee], [OTMissing].[AsOf], [OTMissing].[HRsEarn], (SELECT Sum(OT1.[HRsEarn]) FROM [OTMissing] As OT1
WHERE OT1.[Employee]=[OTMissing].[Employee] AND OT1.[AsOf] <=[OTMissing].[AsOf]) AS RunningTotal, [OTMissing].[RemainPP] INTO OTGenerated
FROM [OTMissing]
ORDER BY [OTMissing].[Employee], [OTMissing].AsOf;
My OTMissing query is 47061 rows. Does that have something to do with it? The only other thing it might be is that most of the records have 0 although I'm not sure why it would be a problem I thought I would at least mention it.
