General :: Link Two Separate Clients?

Apr 9, 2013

I'm creating this database for a claims management company. Yesterday I learnt about making a many to one relationship between the claims and clients tables.

Turns out its more complicated than that. Since I'm dealing with claims, a person may add their partner as the second claimant. (usually the case in mortgages)

So where parties A and B are in a relationship:

person A may claim on their own
Person B may claim on their own
Person A may be the primary claimant and add person B
or conversely person B may be the primary claimant, adding person A.

The end goal is to automatically fill in a financial form (making use of a mail merge). So from what I know I think this means:

that grouping them as one contact is not going to work as I need them to be able to do a solo claim, and also I will not be able to easily change around who is the primary or secondary claimant, which will then carry over onto the mail merge.

So I think this means I need them as two separate contacts. However, I don't know how to create a link between them to easily add their partner to a claim.

Would this also mean I need a many to many relationship between clients and cases.

General :: Sub-Clients For Records In Table

Jul 3, 2013

I have a table that contains clients. There are a few select times when there will be one client organization but I will need to have two entries--say when one department has a separate contact & record of events than another department.

In most cases these separate departments can be treated as entirely separate clients however in some ways they should be counted as one--such as when counting the number of clients that we serve.

What is the best way that I can accomplish this?

My current idea is that when this situation arrises I have some type of command button that will create a new client record in the table, copy the information from the first record, then I can change it as need be.

I don't know if this is possible, how to do it, and how to set up queries that will recognize the two entries as one record. I don't even know if this is the best way to do it

General :: Lock File Shows Admin User Active For All Clients

Jul 2, 2013

We have a split ACC2010 database, with the back end on our server and 5 front ends on 5 client PCs. I hadn't run a compact/repair on the back end for months. When today I tried, I got the 'database is locked' error. The lock file showed 'Admin' logged on at all 5 clients. The front-ends had been closed on all 5 clients. We do not have a user called 'Admin'. Because my issue occurs for all clients, it might be caused by some sort of programming error in the front end.A VBA bug (implicit comparison to a control in an If .. Then construct) caused this type of behaviour but was resolved in Access 2007.

General :: Send Email To Individual Clients Via Access Database 2003

Sep 17, 2014

I have a requirement to send a email to individual clients via my access database 2003 . I am using the email address of the client in the current open form . I then created a query using the id to filter that particular client, this query then becomes my record set.The content for the email is held in a .txt file , On my c drive . Every things appears fine however the fonts that I select in the .txt file are not being use in the actual email body. I created a word document with my preferred fonts and copied and pasted them into the .txt file but on sending the email the selected fonts do not appear.

I have attached a demo of what I am trying to do . To test enter your own email in the email address field of the form . Note the .txt file is on the C:/ drive.

General :: Separate A List Box In Two Categories

Nov 28, 2012

I would like to separate my list box in two categories.Indeed it is composed by 2 types of criteria but arranged in the same List box (I can't create another List box, it's forbidden).how can I proceed?I've thought to insert a dash but it has to appear all the time and I don't know if it's possible to do that.

I've also thought to enter a title IN the list box above each category but it has to appear all the time too..when I click on one item in the List box it becomes highlight.May be code the 2 titles I could add for being always selected (highlight).I don't want to have to select the 2 titles every time!!!

General :: How To Secure Data In Separate ACCDB

Jan 27, 2015

I'm building an application in MS Access 2010.

This application must be able to read from a big table in a separate accdb.

This separate accdb contains info that should NOT be available for all my users to copy, as it is valuable competitive information that could be abused by people with bad intentions. So, a linked table solution is not an option.

However, it should be possible to run parameterized queries that do simple look-ups that return only small/relevant portions of the database.

General :: Creating Separate User Permissions Without VBA?

Aug 19, 2014

The problem is I need it to be only editable by 1 user, but allowing multiple other users to access it and view the records- just not able to add/edit/delete them.

The other question I had about the Split database would be- Does having a split database mean the data needs to be updated in 2 tables or am I taking Splitting databases too literally?

General :: Possible To Store Forms And Reports In Separate FE

Jul 27, 2013

I have an A2007 database used for time and billing. As time goes on I've had to add more forms and especially more reports. I feel the because of all these "additions" the FE is getting a bit bloated, something like 2.2MB right now.What I want to inquire about is the possibility of moving at least some (if not all) of the forms and reports to another FE and can this be done without having to move tables and/or queries?

The navigation pane is "hidden" from the users so they don't see all the tables, queries, forms and reports but some are smart enough to figure out to "unhide" the navigation pane.Concerning the forms; there are certainly some forms that I do not want other users to open out of curiosity, or for whatever other reasons they might have, so these I would want to move. The same basic reasoning would apply to the reports.

My thinking would be this; move a particular form/report to a separate FE that merely acts as a "bucket" to store the form/report. Clicking on the control in the main FE would open the form/report stored in the other FE using the tables and queries in the main FE.can it be done without having to re-write a bunch of code? I know I can add code so certain controls aren't visible to certain users but I've not found a way to permanently lock and hide the navigation pane.

General :: Delimiting - Separate File Into Individual Records

May 24, 2013

I am trying to import several hundred records into Access from a txt file but I can't find a way to separate the file into individual records. A portion of the file is given below:

'C Olive Teece', 'Census, 1940', 'birth: 1919 New York', 'residence: 1940 Ward 4, Canandaigua, Canandaigua City, Ontario, New York', 'spouse: John H Teece', 'parents:', 'children:'

General :: Put Combobox / Listbox Values In A Separate Table Or Not?

Jan 29, 2015

Whenever I create a combobox, Access asks me if I want to grab the values from another table, or if I just want to manually input the possible values.

My question is: is one of the two solutions "better" than the other?

Let's imagine I am creating a Form where I can create a new Contact, and in a listbox (with multiple selections allowed) I want to list the possible character traits, so I have

- Funny
- Annoying
- Smart
- Interesting
- Good-looking
- ...

I think that if I need to store in the Contact records these possible traits, I will have to create a Many-to-Many relationship (therefor creating a junction table) between Contact and Traits.

On the other hand, could I do everything without grabbing values from an extra table and directly inputting the values in the listbox? How would these elements be stored in the Contact record if I allow multiple values in one single field?

General :: Simple Audit By Posting Whole Record To Separate Table?

Jul 30, 2014

I need a simple audit capability

I have a table (Called Master Active List)

I have an empty duplicate of it called History of Master Active List. (Identical fields, with the addition of a distinct ID (primary key)

I have a form where the master can be changed (Called customer details)

When any change is made I want to post the whole record to the history table

1 - Am I correct I no longer need a form based one,(office 2013) and can do one on the data table itself?

I want to capture everything, can this be done with a wildcard, or do I need to go line by line?

The master table has a ton of fields.

The 'max power density' and 'max rated power' are in table and subform 1 but 'cylinder capacity' is in table and subform 2.

General :: Change Link From One External Database To Another?

Feb 26, 2013

I've got an Access 2010 application that currently links to a SQL Server 2000 database. I need to change the link to a SQL Server 2008 database on a different server. Where do I go to change the link? When I click on External Data, ODBC Database, I only get an option to import source data. I don't want to import any data. I just want the application to link to a different external database. If I go ahead and click OK, I choose my ODBC connection and log in to the 2008 database. Now I've got a list of "import objects" to choose from. I choose one table (just for testing; I actually want to link with all tables), it says it imported successfully, but when I view the data in that table from Access, it's the same old 2000 database data.

General :: Link Excel Files To Access DB

Sep 11, 2012

So I've just started with a company where my job is to manage a ton of data. I am new to Access (2010) and am completely impressed by all the awesome things it can do. However, I am running into some issues with knowing the best way to get my current data (which is all in Excel spreadsheets) into Access.

We are working with about 68 customers in 6 different focus areas (or areas of improvement). To make it easier for them, my company has not required them to enter all their data for each area into a centralized database. Instead, we are pulling reports (into Excel) from 3 different databases. The customers who are not currently submitting data to these databases are sending us Excel spreadsheets with their data (they send a seperate spreadsheet for each focus area). So you can see where my problem lies ... NOTHING is the in the same format. Even then the Excel spreadsheets look different from month to month (and customers submit a new, updated form every month with the current month and previous months) because the people managing the data before I came along changed the format a few different times and the customer has the ability to change them too.

Basically, I would really really really like to be able to just link the Excel files to my database, but I am struggling knowing how to do that with my data in so many different places and forms.
