I downloaded a student template from microsoft and have been able to figure out most of it. I cannot see where to enter the emergency contact information. Also, when I try to see the student and guardian table/list, the guardian list comes up empty even though I entered this information when I entered the student info...
View RepliesI have visitors who come in from one to several days at a time through different times of the year. Usually someone visits each day. Currently I use Excel to track visitors but I often keep typing and retyping the same persons over and over.
I would like to create a database of these people but I'm stuck with how to enter and retrieve the information on a daily basis. Should I create a table with many date fields (up to several); or just two; one FROM and one TO and try to draw the information out through a query? If so, how would one ask ACCESS with a query to PRINT TODAYS LIST and another VIEW TODAYS LIST (of visitors) with a button on a form (I know how to create buttons).
I would like to know how on a report to make a button action that when i click it present information from contact list (full contact details).
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm not an advanced user of Microsoft Access 2010, I've been working on a database for a company that does Non Destructive Testing, so my task is to simplify how the technicians process the information and make their jobs easier.
Firstly, I have assigned a Unique Identification to a code in this case - X8120 This code is assigned to a row of information.
What i want to do is enter the code X8120 into a text-box and once the code is enter, i want the database to retrieve all information that's assigned to that code from the row (which is 17 fields) in a table.
When the information is retrieve, i want those 17 fields to automatically populate into their own text-boxes, so there would be 17. This would all be on one form. So the technician only has to enter a code which displays the information relating to the testing the technicians have done.
What i have done so far is made the table into a form and added a select button command, so a technician would click on a button that opens a form and select the row of information they want and populates those 17 fields.
So my aim is to simply enter a code or an event and the database will retrieve the information instead of going through a form to select the information. So i am simplifying the process even more.
hi all......i really need your help.
i have a db inaccess 97, which was working by last friday properly.
it has 3 main forms:
1- add tasks
2- update tasks
3- close tasks
the first 2 forms work ok, however, the form 3 doesnt.
Before closing the form 3, it saves the values updated in 2 tables, the main table (newchanges, updating values) and in the history table (history, inserting records). when i press the save button, the sql to insert records in the history table works perfectly, but the update statement doesnt work.
any idea? all the values are ok.. thx 4 your help
Public Sub grabarstatus()
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunSQL "insert into [history] (change_id,before,after,user,modify,action) values (" & Me.Task_Num.Value & ",'" & vstatus & "','" & Me.status.Value & "','" & Forms!Login!username1 & "','" & Now() & "','Validate status');"
DoCmd.RunSQL "update [newchange] set status='" & Me.status.Value & "' where change_id=" & Me.Task_Num.Value & ";"
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
End Sub

I have given an example in the attached excel spread sheet with a few comments at the head of each column.
1. I want to confirm that my best modelling approach for this kind of information is a series of 1 to many relationships linking the attributes in columns A->D?
2. In the example given an environmental rating is given to each make/model of car based on each combination of attributes A-->D. How would this work in terms of user form design to enter the necessary information? in order to assign an environmental rating?
I am working on a database for a Skip Delivery Company, I have all relevant tables and Forms done and can add customers and so on. I have a field name in my Skips Delivered table called Delivery Docket which contains a long list of customer dockets. What i want to do is, be able to retrieve all customer information (such as Customer Name, County, Location, Phone Number and so on ...) on my Skips Delivered form by just entering the docket number on that form. I'm thinking i need an SQL Statement somewhere?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a query where a user will enter information in boxes (any combination) on a form and a query will bring up the joined information from 4 different tables but I do not know where to start with the relationships on the query let alone the best method to search.
To start it off I have attached a db with the tables and the form I want the user to enter the search criteria into as well as my attempt at a query.
I work for a firm who have a few thousand clients and we are wanting to go through a process of checking with them that the data we send them is going to the email address they would like it to go to. However in some cases we don't currently hold an address so we are contacting them by phone to get the addresses over the next few weeks.
The way I've chosen to do this is to use the excellent link between Access and Outlook to send an email to the address we have on file (or have gotten) with a very light form they can optionally fill in to update the email address if desired.All seems well in testing this with 2 exceptions:
1) I have 2 email boxes in outlook, my "personal" one and a group mailbox. I'd like the emails access sends to come from the group mailbox but cannot see an option to control this.
2) We're likely to send the emails out in tranches - is there a way to have a single table the drives the email process but some how have it know that we have sent the emails out for certain clients such that when I send a second tranche, it doesn't re-send to clients that have already been contacted?
I have table with companies (accounts) and a table contacts (people working for the specific company.
Then among this contacts there are contacts - individuals not linked to any account.
How to relate tables contacts with accounts if some are linked and some not ?
why I get a pop up asking for parameter value of fields I no longer have in my table? It says this when I open my form. I deleted the fields from my form but it's still asking for it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having some problem with the Microsoft Access. I want to preview the report but it always show the popup asking me to enter the parameter value after I clicked the button. For your information, this problem doesn't occur in the subform. But when I try to test it with my main page, the problem is occur. Need to remove the popup.

View 5 Replies View RelatedHi I am in the process of designing a new database using Access 2003 for my company. I have very little knowledge of access and what knowledge I do have is self taught!
The database is to hold medical records about patients that we see (we run a small medical centre)
The information that we put on it will include the patients personal details (name address etc..) and also details about treatments given to them.
Could anyone give me some advice on what type of database sounds best for this type of information. At the moment the database will only be used in the medical centre but will be accessed by more than one person at a time (not sure if that is relevant !
I really would appriciate some advice as some of you guys have helped me before and i value your opinions.
Many thanks in advance

i have to write a result of the query to the excel, which is a invoice template where i need to enter the data.
Depend on the result the template can grow in size also, here if the size grows there needs to be informatin coming on first page for eg: address in first page should not repeat in second page, second page have purly order details and footer at the end which have signatue and attestation.
Problem is data can be in 1 page, 2 pages, 3 pages ..or more
How can i achieve this task as all pages have water mark as page 1, page 2...sand so on...?
(A Sample i have attached)
I have not developed a database application before. At my work I was seconded to fill in as a team lead for a change management team. We are in a production environment and need to track the progress of product improvements. The current system is very complicated using an enormous Excel spreadsheet and a very bid MSProject schedule. It is very handraulic in the way it is maintained.
Before I started I reviewed who inputs data, who uses the data, and what metrics are reported. I can reduce the amount of data that is recorded by only generating many of the existing Excel fields through calculation run when a report is generated or a chart populated.
I need to track the state of several hundred minor changes through the production run. The reference data I need to store is serial number against production batch. This is fixed data that is not changed, only used as to show the entry point of a change into the production line and which serial numbers the change is applied to.
I have two third-party library programs that allow you to type in an ISBN and the software searches, say Amazon, and grabs particular missing data: author, cover jpg and summary etc, and imports the info to the program. I'd like to replicate this process with Access. If I can type in an author, title or ISBN to Access, I'd like it to search Amazon to gather and input the missing data to my assigned fields. Is this possible? Or am I stuck to typing in the information separately.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI a a new user to Access having only every ceate a couple of small databases using the wizards. I have just started a database where I have created my tables and I am now creating a form to display information. The problem that I am having is that when in Design mode I can see all the information and fields that I have used to create the form, however when i save the form then opening in display mode I do not see any of the fields, revert back to design mode and hey are all there.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI am using Access 2010. I have a database that on a form uses a multiselect listbox. That part works just fine. The list box is for selecting additional people to email. Now I have had no luck with returning just the email address that are in a hidden column (the persons actual name is seen and "selected"). The names come from a separate table and is used as a forgien key. On that same table are the indivuals email addresses. What I did was loop through to get all of the ID numbers I am getting from the list box (the ID numbers are stored in the table that the form is based on).
Once I have all of the ID Numbers I thought that maybe there was a way to retrieve all of the email address associated with the ID Numbers. This is what I have so far. I know that AllQuery returns the first email address from the list box. I just have no idea if the query is returning more than one record, or if it is how to then go to the next record. I have tried a few things with little to no success.
Code:
Dim ListItem As Variant
Dim AllItems As String
Dim AllQuery As String
For Each ListItem In Me.EmailAdditionEgineers.ItemsSelected
AllItems = AllItems & Me.EmailAdditionEgineers.ItemData(ListItem) & " or "
Next ListItem
AllItems = Left(AllItems, Len(AllItems) - 3)
AllQuery = DLookup("EmailAddress", "AdditionalEmailRequestQuery", "[ID] = " & AllItems) & ";"
I see a lot of requests for this operation, but apparently .DB files are so general that sometimes it's impossible? Any all-encompassing program that can read files like this? I believe they come in different formats and are produced by a variety of different programs. The only thing I ever see though are files with [.db] as the extension.
If I open the one I have with notepad on a windows machine I see some of the info but some of it is not there and is garbled.
