I'd like to know how to implement a pop-reminder that runs reminding the user of the database of :
1. some to-do actions for the current day or, for example, a week ahead of a certain event, that is related to some date previously entered in a table.
2. this should be within the access database.
3. I saw something like that in the [URL]... website, but actually couldn't understand it.
I'm working on an access database and I need to connect that database to the reminder function of Outlook.
At first, I set the reminder precisely six months before the due date, everything was okay and the reminder worked. But after some revision required by my supervisor, I need to set the reminder based on month (not exactly on the due date), so the tasks which have due dates in the same month will be wrapped into a single reminder. The reminder also should be appear in every two weeks. Here's the code I've been worked on :
Code: Private Sub Expired_AfterUpdate() Dim outLookApp As Outlook.Application Dim outLookTask As Outlook.TaskItem Set outLookApp = CreateObject("outlook.application") Set outLookTask = outLookApp.CreateItem(olTaskItem)
[Code]...
I put this code on the AfterUpdate event in the column containing the due date. How should I rearrange the code so it would be able for the reminder to appear based on the month? (just consider that the reminder will be active six months before due date).
I need to create a guest database for a small hotel. And I would like to create a pop-up alert that appears when I open MS Access to remind me birthdays of the guests.
I would like to add to the initial startup of my application a form with a password command that if you do not enter the correct password in 30 days it will terminate this application? Is that possible? Thanks matt
This is my problem!!! Bit new to Access, so here goes! I am setting up a claibration database for test equipment, what i need to do is to set up the database so that say a week before a calibration date is due, the database will flag this up, say display a reminder!! Can anyone tell me is this possible and the best way to set this up????
hi all. there's a new db im making and i'd like to add in a 'follow up reminder' feature where; after 1 month of job completion (as updated by a auto update date field) we can give a 1 month follow up call with the customer just to say 'hey, just wanted to make sure your stuff is working' or so to speak. the reminder must say something to the likes of '1 month follow up required for customer vin deisel acct # 5777'... in other words the popup box gotta have the option to capture data from the db as well!
about 2 or 3 guys in here (total access noobs-myself included) are the ones making the db and we'd like some assistance here.
hi! I'm doing a reminder program this program alerts you if you have things to do each day it has a code that I obtained on the internet wich retrieves the user name. My problem is that when I enter as a user a window shows up say my username and the number of things I have to do but I can't get it to count the number of things to do. I tried a query but it doesn't work (either it shows "#name" or it goes all blank)please help. thanks in advance, newbiepr
I have created an email message to be sent via a closing button on a form, using the DoCmd.SendObject command. It all works fine except that MS Outlook then puts a message box on the screen with a countdown bar saying that MS Access is trying to access Outlook and to press Yes if this is to be allowed.
Is there any way that I can disable this message box please. I appreciate that this is more an Outlook problem than an Access one, but some database programmer has probably come across the same problem before.
I want to create a query that says starting on a specific date, every 6 months a reminder will pop up when a certain report opens (or form, preferably a report). So if I said the starting date is 10/16/2013, once April 16th, 2014 hits and this user opens the report, a message pops up.
Another way would be to add that message to the report itself, so it's not technically a pop up but its built-in to the report.
How I would accomplish the following scenario in Access 2010. I have created a data base for a funeral home. One of my tables includes the date of death of the individual (DOD) (i.e. 04/16/2014). From that date I want to trigger a reminder to follow up with a family letter 6 months from that date. Would I do this with a macro or would I do this with VBA Script?
Sorry to open with a question but its usually the way, i'm quite an experienced computer user but never used any office products before and just thought i should learn as i'm losing money every week by not keep track of things properly.
So then to my question..
I've made a table to cover all the orders i have had placed, this includes a date column for when that order was placed. I just wondered if it would be possible to have some kind of system where after 7 days without any acknowledgement from me it either pops up or turns red or something similiar. I'm thinking the acknowledgement could be the yes/no box and i tick that when i recieve the item back, if i dont it either pops up or turns red or something :confused:
I've got a db system linked with webpages that handles rent management and i'd like to set up an email reminder every thursday to tell the student tenants to put the rubbish out for the bin man. I have their email addresses in one table and another table telling them whether its recycling or landfill rubbish.
Basically the question is how would i go about getting access to send the email at a certain time and date ?
I created a Tracking System and would like to send an automatic reminder to the person the ticket has been assigned to, using the due date and the text message in the field "reminder message". Once the message send, I want the database to recognize and not send it again. I want the database to send a new message if the due date has changed.
I have a form (Access 2010) in which i insert contracts; each contract has a start and an expiry date, but instead of dd/mm/yyyy i would like the user to be able to insert just the year, while the day and month are predefined values and they are automatically inserted (i.e. 01/10/yyyy; the year being the only value that changes, and it is manually inserted by the user).
I would like to set a pop up remainder (on form load) x days before the expiry date, but, because too many of them have the same expiry date i am wondering if the reminder can be set on different days, based on another field (i.e. partner location [country]).. i.e. reminder for contracts with Austria to pop up 60 days before expiring, for UK = 67 days and so on.. or even a specific day for each, i.e. for Austria = 01/08/yyyy, for UK 01/09/yyyy).
I am desperate for some help. I have been asked to establish a database for our office use and I have done the best that I can without any 'education' or 'instruction' on access, but now I am just absolutely stuck.
I have made forms, and tables, and a switchboard but I think I am having major 'relationship' issues and thats why my forms are not 'cooperating' with me.
My questions I think are so specific to the database that I just created, or tried to anyway, that I really can't ask a question in 'general'. I could send someone my database and let ya look at it and then perhaps you could assist, if anyone is interested.
Thank you so much, like I said I am very much inexperienced in this and am desperate.
I need to be pointed in the right direction if you don't mind. I understand underlying database structures pretty well, but I am not sure how to create a form in Access so the user can enter new data. I am tring to create a form based off of the classes table first and then go from there. I was hoping to be able to allow the end user the ability to enter all information from one form.
I have attached the relationship structure that I have setup but I am not sure where I need to go next. Should I create queries and then insert the queries to my form?
I got an MS Access 2003 db which I think has an general option disbabled or so dnno, here's the case:
When I create a query, and choose to close the query (just be clicking the "X" button at the top), Access doesn't ask me to save the query or not.. it directly displays the box to fill in the name of the query
When I execute an action query, Access just executes it when I click "!" button, without asking me if I want to "deleting, updating, adding xx records"
I've been searching ages to find an option to enable but I can't seem to find anything
im trying to upload a document with screen shots on the forums. Its 336kb, how do i make that smaller so ican upload since the limit is 100kb, if i take a screenshot and put them into 1 docuemnt per screen shot it still 115kb.
i'm getting annoyed by Access 2003 (and 97 for that matter!) just corrupting records in a table and then i have to scrabble around, kicking people out the database, compact & repairing, maybe installing the back up copy and in one case, doing a make table query from the data table that excluded the corrupted record
:(
are there any general things i can do to avoid these things, or am i just going to have to roll with them?
Hi, I'm very new to Access DB developing, but I'm learning loads, thanks to this site.
What I'm trying to do, and it's driving me crazy, is the following: I have a Table that has to fields (Total Daily Weight) and (Total Yearly Weight) and I have a field that calculates the percentage of yearly weight based on the total daily weight. Now I know you're not supposed to store calculated values, so my question is..How do report on this calculated value?
A little more backround on the database: The Database tracks waste for companies. They supply me with a total for the year, I weigh the total for the day, and then calculate to % and report on it for them....The problem comes when I go to print a report...I don't get the calculated % of yearly waste.. I keep reading on here that it should be done in a query? Can someone please guide me what I should do? I can put a copy of the DB up if it helps. Any help would be appreciated.
