General :: Error Using Access 2010 Contacts Database Template
Jun 13, 2014I used the Contacts Database Template to import a comma delimited txt file of contacts data. The template included a number of tables, queries, forms & reports which I did not require. I deleted them leaving only a Table entitled 'Addressbk'. I added an Entry Form using the standard access tools and this works fine with the table. However, on running the access database I get the following error message; 'The form named "Main" is mis-spelled or refers to a form that doesn't exist. My only form is labelled 'Entry Form', so it would appear that one of the forms I deleted must have been named 'Main'. If one ignores the error message the database & entry form function perfectly.

View 6 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Create A Button On Form To Convert Data To Text File Template
Jul 14, 2015I'm currently working on a project within access which will allow users to select/input information in a form which will then save to the database.
What I need is to create a button on the form which will allow you to convert the data collected from the form to a custom text file template.
(Or maybe the last row added to the database. - although this may cause errors. Example: the form information doesn't save which will in turn create a text file with the data collected from the previous job)
The custom text file template should have a sentence description followed by the value recorded from the form.
Example:
1 configuration type: (data from form)
2 model type: (data from form)
3 Poc: (data from form)
And so on.
So in summary - I would be to use the form to collect the desired information which will save to the database.
Once actioned, a custom text file should be populated with the collected information (with specific data placement as per the example above)....
Customizing A Toolbar
Jun 28, 2006Hi,
I was trying to customize a toolbar by adding the "size to shortest", "size to narrowest", etc., stuff from the format menu. The first item, "size to tallest", I just clicked and dragged from the format menu onto my toolbar, and that worked fine....except that it disappeared from the format menu. Then, I tried to drag "size to tallest" back to the format menu; Now it has disappeared totally from both my toolbar AND my format menu. How do I get it back???:confused:
BTW, I found out if I ctl-drag items from the format menu to my toolbar, they stay on the format menu but also appear on my toolbar. Wish I had known that before ....

Customizing Date Format
Sep 19, 2005Hi
I was hoping someone could give me some advice on formatting dates in a text box upon a form.
The date forms part of a serial number that consists of a user selected prefix, from a seperate list box and a 4 digit date in the format of year and week, ie "yyww".
I was intending to use the current system date as the source.
Thanks

Customizing Access Parameter Queries
Apr 7, 2006Hi
I wonder if anyone could re-orientate me and put me in the correct direction regarding the above subject. Without wittling on too much what I,ve been basically trying to do is to get a query that I've made, derive its criteria from a form that has 3 combo boxes on it allowing a user to select varying options. I have been using a forum thread which described the process in more detail and whilst I,ve followed it to the letter the end result that I get
an annoying message "The expression On Click event that you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: A problem occured while MS Access was communicating with the OLE server or Active X control. It goes onto say that the expression may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a user defined function, or [Event Procedure].There may have been an error evaluating the function, event or macro". The thread took me to www.fontstuff.com/access/acctut08.htm and it is on this site that I have been trying in vain to come up with a matching result. Am I going mad or is there someting on their tutorial that is mis-leading me! I am desperately trying to adminster some 'self help' and to use the forum threads but I am still at a loss as to what to do next. Could some kind person please help...

Customizing Multiple Item Forms
Apr 15, 2014I am trying to create a form for a query so that I can filter on a chosen record and have the data presented in a more reader friendly format: the idea being that I have the common data show once in the form header and the rest show in the detail section (kind of like a form with subform type)
First I tried using the form wizard to create a Tabular layout form which I could have easily customised, but I am unable to use this because I get an error message telling me the wizard cannot create my form due to me choosing too many fields.
In my next attempt, I elected to use the Multiple Item form option, which seems to work OK but presents the following problems:
1) It has not included all of the data fields in my query... though it looks like I can add these manually
2) I am unable to reorganise the text boxes and labels the way I would like, as they all seem to be locked together Is there a setting somewhere that I can change to stop this from happening?
Customizing Field Display Depending On User
Aug 30, 2006Hi,
I am looking for a way to customize fields to be hidden or not depending on user in forms or reports.
Any idea ?
I wanted to explore the customisation of each query but there must be an easier way to save personal parameters somehow so that the user would go through the forms and hide the non necessary fields once and we would then save somewhere these settings for each user.
Has anybody already experienced such a request ?
Queries :: Customizing Access Parameter Query - No Data
Apr 22, 2015I don't want my user to type in the parameter value for a query in case of miss spelling. Therefore, I'm using a dialog box form with a combo box field. The row source of the combo field is a table with one field for the list. I've added VB code (Event Procedure) to a buttons on the dialog box which says to run a query after click. I've created the query for the info I need displayed and am using the forms combo field as the criteria.
Private Sub cmdOK_Click()
DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryRequestsbyBranch", acViewNormal, acEdit
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmDepartmentList"
End Sub
The query runs except I'm not getting any data.
Forms :: Customizing Input Mask Violation Error Message?
Jan 5, 2014I am trying to change the standard input mask violation error message to a personalised one. I have found this code:
Private Sub Form_Error(DataErr As Integer, Response As Integer)
Const INPUTMASK_VIOLATION = 2279
If DataErr = INPUTMASK_VIOLATION Then
MsgBox "There was an input mask violation in the field no!!"
Response = acDataErrContinue
End If
End Sub
However, i would like to change the message for a number of different text boxes. and i don't know how to isolate each one, and give each one a different message?
General :: Updating From Local Database To Central Database
Sep 12, 2012Database: Access 2007
I have designed a touchscreen input system using Visual Basic.net and this writes to an Access Database. Each Touchscreen has its database locally so it can still work even if there are Network problems.
Now what I would like to do is have all these local databases write to a central database say every minute but only write new records to the central database. The Central Database can either be Access or SQL.
What is the best way to do this?
General :: Database For Metal Market Prices To Be Used In Another Database
Jun 24, 2015I have been working on a database for over a month now, and my boss just threw a monkey wrench in my work. I believed that the Metal Market Prices would be entered once a week in the current DB. My boss informs me today that he wants an employee to go in every morning and enter that days Price for Each Metal with respect to many different markets.
There is a total of 12 metals, and 5 markets. I need the data to be stored first by date, then by either market or metal, and lastly by which ever isn't used second (Either: date-market-metal, or date-metal-market). I think the Latter of the two methods makes the most sense. Is it possible for my current DB to lookup values from the Metals Database based on date-metal-market?
