General :: Collecting 2 Types Of Information From Combo Box
Mar 6, 2014
I have 2 tables
1. stocklist
2 product details
I created a form called " product details "
Using a combo box in the form "product details" I select a "part number " of which the part number and the associated description of the part comes into a fields called "part number " and "part description "
The part number selected then goes into a table called product details
Is it possible that when I select the part number , both the part number and the part description go into the table called product details.

I have a database that, vaguely looks like the following
NAME Value Category A Value Category B Value Category C
Name A -50 0 0
Name A 0 50 0
Name B -100 0 0
Name B 0 75 10
Name B -25 0 0
Name C -100 0 0
Etc. etc.
What I'd like is to find a query that will first, generate a Category D which should be a total of all the values in the three different categories and consolidates the names to one line. So it should spit something like this out.
NAME Value Category A Value Category B Value Category C Total
Name A -50 50 0 0
Name B -125 75 10 -40
Name C -100 0 0 -100
After this, I'd like to have another query that will only display the values that are NOT zero.
NAME Val Cat A Val Cat B Val Cat C Total
Name B -125 75 10 -40
Name C -100 0 0 -100

I have a database for recording jobs and invoices for our transport company. I was thinking of adding an "Attachment" type field to my invoice table to store pdf's of scanned copies of the delivery notes relating to the invoice. How this will affect the performance of the database? Will adding this field greatly increase the size of the database and slow the whole database down?

I have inherited a number of 2007 Access databases that have a PDF (Adobe Acrobat Document) as the file type for the locking record.
These databases seem significantly slower, and have more frequent "Not Responding" periods on the network - especially when compared to those with a standard ldb file type locking record.
What determines the file type for a locking record?
Can the Adobe locking record be changed to a ldb? and How?

I am now working on this new database. I would like to make a calculation so that I could derive a value called eGFR from a patient's serum creatinine. This is a test of kidney function.I am having the following problems.
a. Modules are not appearing in the Navigation Pane of the Access 2007. When I press 'Object Types' in the Navigation Pane I get all object types such as tables, queries, forms, reports, macros but not modules. I know there are modules as I have written lots of vba code.
b. I have written the following code within this Function. The following is the code.
Public Function eGFR(creatinine, Gender, Age) As Single
If IsNull(Age) Or IsNull(creatinine) Then
eGFR = 0
Else
[code]....
This code is working fine in another database, however when I try to upload a query in the current database that has this function in one of the fields, I get an error saying the the function eGFR does not exit.
I have inserted the function into one of the modules that I have managed to enter.
Do I need to deposit the code elsewhere? How do I access Modules from the Navigation Pane?

Looking for a way to use transfertext to make a table and create a spec file from csv files I am importing. I want all fields in the table to be shorttext.
Otherwise I need another way to bring the files into a table.
I have a generic spec to use that brings in any data as text.
Created the spec from a delimited file with 255 text fields... Field001, Field002, etc.
However the field names need to be changed. My field names are in the first row of a table. I will need to read each fields data in the first row and rename the field.

I am working on a project where I have data coming in from about 70 different sources across my state... but right now, they're all submitting their data in different ways (some through websites, some through databases, and some through excel spreadsheets they send monthly). As you can imagine, this is a nightmare for trying to get all of the data in one place to do some statistics on.
My question is this - if I were to set up an Access form where each client could fill in the blanks with the same information they've been submitting to all these other sources, could I send it out to them and have it all compile in one place? The last place I worked, we used Access to manage all of our on-site stuff, but we were all on the same network. Could it work the same way if everyone is spread across one state?

I have a database which will contain sensitive data, but as part of that database there is a table which contains a case number (related the case table) and three different costs (Cost 1, Cost 2 & Cost 3), I would like to be able to use the email collection service in Access, to send our Finance guy the table, have him fill the costs for each case and send it back, without him having access to the rest of the db.
I have been trying to set this up but the html form the wizard outputs, is well... a form, only allowing one of each cost to be entered.Is there a way to bend the email function to my will or am I going to have to do it another way?

I have a form that is used for data entry; from there I want to create a new form where I can select a field from a combo box which would generate the amount associated.
Example on the first form it has a Carpenter that has a calculated output of $1000, on the second form I would want to click on the combo box and pick carpenter and I would like the calculated field to be shown next to it.
I tried making an if statement on an unbound box but I found it difficult
=IIf([Combo2]=Building Service Engineer, =[Forms]![Estimate]![Text787],IIf([Combo2]=Carpenter,
=[Forms]![Estimate]![Text788],IIf([Combo2]=Custodian,
=[Forms]![Estimate]![Text789],IIf([Combo2]=Custodian - Shift Pay (5am - 6am) ,
=[Forms]![Estimate]![Text790],IIf([Combo2]=Drafting Technician,
[Code] ......
[Text787]-[Text805] are fields from the first form, these are calculated fields that multiplies wages quantity etc.
Also [Combo2] wont let me pick any data that I typed in.

I have a database I'm creating for DVD/blu-ray sales. I currently have a order system in place in a subform, which uses a combo box to find the customer and fills in all the information in the rest of the subform. One piece of information is the date of sale.
I need to be able to have the ability to change the price of the DVDs and have a history of sales with the right price. The easiest way to do this seemed to be by Date of sale. So the price is linked to the date of sale, when the price changes, all orders before that change use the old price, after use the current price.
I was wondering if there is anyway to have a second subform on the same page and us the date of sale from subform1 and have it display the price in the second subform?

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 sales form that contains a combo box lookup to tblCUSTOMERS. It allows me to select a previous customer if that person is already entered into the system. If the person is NOT in the system, a form pops up to add the customer into the table.
What I need to know is, if the person IS already in the table BUT their address etc. has changed, what is the best way to get to that record to edit it? I'm THINKING a button with a command to go to that customer's profile.
What is the code to open a form to the customer selected in the drop down.
the customer name field is CUSTID

Hi 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
Paul :)

Creating a form against a table with the following fields
EC
Project
Originator
Title
Full description
Effectivity
Etc....
Easy enough to create the Project combo box, problem comes with trying to systematically assign the next EC number.
When I select a Project from a combo box I want an EC assigned with format ECXXXX-### where XXXX is the project number from the combo box and ### is a sequential number. ECs should start at -001 for all projects.
Do I need to add an EC suffix field to hold just the ###? Then what?

I'm working with Access 2007 and am trying to make a form with multiple tabs that will update when a certain business name is selected in the combo box at the top of the form. I have tried looking up different codes to make the combo box update correctly but can't find anything. Right now I have this code in my After Update:
Private Sub cboBusinessName_AfterUpdate()
On Error GoTo myError
Dim rst As Object
Set rst = Me.RecordsetClone
rst.FindFirst "[GrowerID] = " & Me.cboBusinessName
Me.Bookmark = rst.Bookmark
leave:
If Not rst Is Nothing Then Set rst = Nothing
Exit Sub
myError:
MsgBox "Record Not Found"
Resume leave
End Sub
Here is a picture of the tabs and combo box.

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.

I 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.
