I have several fields that were set up as text fields since the numbers would never be used for calculation. But now my users want to see 100,000 instead of 100000. I have looked everywhere for an answer but do not know if it is possible without retyping the data. The text or rather the numbers that are text can be from anywhere of 1 to 1,000,000 plus. They are just used to show population figures. How to do this with formatting?
View RepliesI have a few bit fields that, when checked, specific text need to be displayed in a field separated by commas.
Example:
Child 1 = checked
Child 2 = not checked
Child 3 = checked
Child 4 = not checked
Output:
Child 1, Child 3
I did find this sample expression that I am using in another area and it is working perfect and I understand it works based off of string length.
Mid(IIf(Len(Expr1), ", " & Expr1, "") & IIf(Len(Expr2), ", " & Expr2, "") & IIf(Len(Expr3), ", " & Expr3, ""),Len(", ") + 1)
What is the best way to accomplish this?
I am wanting to make a text box on a form, to return a number (amount of records returned by a query)basically so if the query returns 5 records, the text box on the form will show"5",
Lets say the form is called "A", and the query is called "B" .How do I put this in the source control of the textbox ? < if this is right too ?
Is there a place within an Access database besides a table where you can store a flag (text or boolean or number) that persists after the database is closed and can be checked when the database is opened (using VBA)?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI 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.
I have a field in a table where it is a lookup is a combo box. So this makes the data type of the field a number when in reality it is a text. When I have this field show in a list box it shows the number instead of the text.

I am again having problems with these damned commas, they seem never to conform to my knowledge.I tried to convert the otherwise good and working update query into an sql but i got red colours showing that Access does not accept my commas.I tried with single commas ' or with double commas """" but obviously i jumbled the commas up with no result.Would you help me convert the update query below into an sql ?

Hi All:
I am exporting 9-digit ID numbers from access using a macro and the Transport Text and Export Delimited feature.
I wish to have a comma after every ID number that is exported.
Any ideas out there?
Many, many thanks

I have a table with an auto number PK. This table will contain orders. I'd like to use the PK from this table as the Invoice number on the invoice. I'd like to have it start at a number other than "1" just because it looks better on an invoice. I don't know how to do this. I looked at the table design to see if there were options available to me there but couldn't find anything. Is it possible? (I do not know how to use code.)
View 7 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am trying to get it to display a prompt box that will display entries with a certain ID.
This query can be used to get the records with the IDs of 1 and 8:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE id IN(1,8);
Now this code can be used to get a record with an ID number that the user specifies:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE id=[Enter the ID Number];
So, I tried to combine the two together with this:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE id IN([Enter the ID Number]);
This however doesn't work because the prompt strips out punctuation - so if I type "1,8" in the box, it displays record 18.
Any ideas?
Hi, I am converting a database from Access 2002 to Excel 2002 but when converted each value in the spreadsheet has the value ' directly before it. Is there anyway around this problem.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form where I combine several fields in 1 textbox. At the end there is an amount. It should look like below:
The total cost of the products is EUR 29.342,45
I have the following formula in the textbox:
Code : =" The total cost of the products " & [Currency] & " " & [TotalPrice]
It would be great if the TotalPrice could be with the dots and coma in the correct way.
I tried to format it, but it was giving me nothing, the numbers stayed the same.
I would like to export fields from Access 2003 with a comma pragmatically added between each field as a CSV file.
I am able to export the fields without the comma, but the Accounting Program that I want to use for the importing of the data requires a comma to separate each field.
Example
one,two,three,four,five
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'Insert database table into document
Selection.Range.InsertDatabase Format:=11, Style:=191, LinkToSource:=False, _
SQLStatement:="SELECT * FROM `tblNoonan`" & "", _
DataSource:="N:TorrentSetupNGS.accdb", _
From:=-1, To:=-1, IncludeFields:=False
End Sub
The code runs and displays like this:
xxxx yyyyyy
xxx yyyyyy
xxx yyyyyy
xxxxxx yyyyyy
xxxx yyyyyy
xxxxxxx yyyyyyy
xxxxxxx yyyyy
xxx yyyyyy
xxxx yyyyy
xxxxxxx yyyyyyy
xxxx yyyy
xxxxxx yyyyyy
xxxx yyyyyy
xxxxxxx yyyyyy

I have a small question. There is a table that I am trying to use that houses product numbers, the only problem is that those product numbers start with a '0' but the '0' got deleted because the numbers are housed in a number defined field. If I change the table properties to text, is there a way I can add a leading '0' infront of every existing product number?
