Sep 7, 2012
create a check on a feild(customer id) of customer table in MS Access , as "Customer ID is of 8 characters, the first 4 are alphabets and the last 4 are digits"
I have a Table Sales - that lists customer and order information
Most of the customers are new - is there a way to populate Customer Name Table with a new entry each time a new customer is input into the Sales Tale
(Without having to add the custome to Customer Name Table - then going to Sales Order) OR Failing that - is there a way to use a list box that points to Customer Name Table (and if it doesn't find the one you want, will allow you toadd a new record) In the SAME form as you use to add to Sales Table.
So: Date (textbox linking to form.Sales) Customer Name (List Box linking to form.CustomerName + adding the info to form.Sale)
My current database creates an invoice per order. Until now that worked wonderful. Now i want to create an invoice per month per customer with multiple orders on the same database. So i will have to create a new table/query on the existing order table.
I have a DB set up with a debtors table (Customers) and a Customer Contacts table, I was thinking of combining these two tables into one.Most of the Debtors are companies, but a few are actual people. With the current setup, i need to have both a debtor and a customer in two different tables, but with exactly the same data.
So I have this field in a form/table called "CustomerID". This is to be an ID number for our customers that includes the first four letters of their last name (LastName field) followed by four digits.
This ID is created when a button is pressed in the form. After that, code needs to grab the first four letters of the last name (LastName field in the form and table) and then go to the Contacts table and see if there is already a CustomerID that starts with those four letters. If there is not, then the CustomerID will be those four letters followed by "0001". If there is, it needs to be those four letter followed by the next number sequence that still does not exist for those four letters.
For example: First four letters of last name = zabo Check to see if those four letters exist in CustomerID returns negative then CustomerID assigned = zabo0001
Another example: First four letters of last name = zabo Check to see if those four letters exist in CustomerID returns zabo0001 and zabo002 then CustomerID assigned = zabo0003
I am doing my project to create data base for Video Hire shop. Was allright so far; however hit the wall now. I need to create query to list Hires(rentals) by customer age group.

I am working on a database at the moment to try and find the customer that has spent the most money. At the moment i can only get the customers that have placed the most orders. I have a dispatch table that consists of all the orders and a customer table that are linked using a Customer Number. Each order has a dispatch number because one customer can buy more than one product per order. Like i said at the start I'm trying to find the customer that has spent the most money but the top 10 would be better.
I have 2 controls, a textbox and combo box. I want to prevent users from entering anything other than number integers on the textbox and only strings on the combo box.I want codes that will prevent users by customized msgbox instead of default access error message. I am using ms Access 2010.
I am in the process of creating a DB for customer names, job numbers and document numbers, but have run into a problem right from the start.We are using a naming convention of the first 3 letters of the customer name, and 3 numbers after that. Eg. Customer names Allstar, Allpro would be All001 and All002 respectively.
The job numbers would then be sequential numbers, for each customer. So the first job for Allstar would be All001-001 and so on.How do I get Access to check/create the customer ID's? And then how do I get Access to check for the next job number for each customer?I was able to do this in Excel with the following;
=LEFT(B12,3)&COUNTIF($B$3:B12,LEFT(B12,3)&"*") in one cell =IF(B12="","",LEFT(D12,3)&TEXT(RIGHT(D12,1),"00")) in another to add the preceding zero's. Obviosuly , Excel is not the best way of tracking customers, jobs, documents etc.
Let's say I have a list of customers. For each customer I have much more info on other lists (order list, personal info list, bank info list, and so on) - all are of course connected properly.
Now let's say a certain customer is no longer my customer, so I want to remove him from the customer-list. But, I want to move him to a different list - past-customers - so all the information that was related to that customer will remain so. In short, I want to remove from the customer-list without affecting the related data.
the job table needs to store who BOOKED the job, and who was the PASSENGER in the job.
i want to use the person ids in the job table..
im having trouble here with the whole relationships and forms..
i need my user to be able to simultaneously add a booker and a customer to the person table and assign them both to a job and i dont know the best way to do it..
a few rules
job1 can be booked by person 1 have passenger as person 1
job 1 can be booked by person 1 have passenger as person 2
also the booker and/or passenger may be unknown.. which is why i want to create an unknown person in the person table.. with id 1 for example.. and anytime the booker or passenger isnt known my user can just type in id 1
"Dynamically search multiple fields" using my own customer data.
I'd like to add in additional searches as what he has will let you do one search but I'd like to, in his example, search on vintage and state, or the like. I assume Id need two multi-searches for this.
Right now the data is in excel so I have a completely blank page to fill.
I have a client table. I have a client product table for ski's Each Client has 1 or more products (skis)

I have a table with all patient information ~1000 patients. However, not all patients will be case managed. I have another table where I will add all the patients that need to be case managed ~ 100-300 patients. I'd like to be able to autopopulate the 2nd form (the case managed patients) by selecting the Patient ID.
I'd like the patient ID to pull the patient info from the 1st table and populate it into the 2nd table.
Same for physicians. I have a physician file with around 2000 physicians. I'd like to type in the physician ID in my form and have it pull all the demographic information for the physician and populate those fields...
Any thoughts? I am sick of cut/paste and retyping all this info that could easily be pulled for seperate existing tables.
When I open one of my tables or queries and look at the customer Id, the displayed info is a single digit. On my customers table my primary key is the customer Id with auto number with the format like this: "ID"000. This is great however, when you look up the customer id in other tables it only displayes the single digit. I want it to show up like ID001 or ID002. In the customers tables it looks just like that, but if you click in that cell/field it takes away the ID and just shows the 001 or 002. I changed the format in my other tables under customer id to "ID000" but that didn't seem to make a difference. I would like to be able to do a search lets say by customer ID in one of my products table and when I type ID005 or ID012 it takes me to those records. But right now I would have to enter 5 or 12. Datatype in my other tables on field customer ID is set to text. Do I have to do a validation rule? How can I get it to show up the way I want it?
I am trying to create a database for farm auditing. The idea is you gather information monthly from the same farms and enter this into the database.So as time pogresses for example, farm 1 will have 6 entries for each field in each table, in 6 months time. But i need to be able to see each entry that was put in each month. I do not want it to just show the most recently modified information, and I want it to show the date f these.
I need to create a form that automatically populates Dealer_ID in my Customers table when a user selects Dealership from a dropdown box.
The form is updating all of the user controlled fields in the Customer table as the user inputs the information. I have a separate Dealership table who's Primary Key is Dealer_ID where dealership information (including the dealer name) is stored. A one to many relationship is in place that connects Dealer_ID from the Dealership table to the same field in the Customer table. The user inputting the information will know what the dealership name is but will not know their ID. I need a solution that will allow the user to select a dealership name in the form and auto-populate the Dealer_ID field in the Customer table with the appropriate ID from the Dealership table.
I am trying to use the template provided in the Access database wizards, pages and projects. Its called Order Entry. What i would like to do is edit the template to fit my needs but i need to change the Product ID feild from Autonumber to a product id of my own. I would however like to keep it as the Key.
