When using Access 2007, I have a new record button, but that record is only written to the db once you navigate away from it. How do I write immediately to the DB, so that record is saved without navigating away from it. I believe I can use ADO or DAO but I'm having difficulties.
i want to have a button where the operator can cancel when on a current record. i want an if. if form has changes made but not saved then undo else close.
In my Access app I need to get the latest record added of an item from a MS Sql table and check the period between now and the date saved in the record.
So my guess is: Select TOP 1 * from tbl_StockItems Where StockId = Loc_StockId
I then need to check the days between tbl_StockItems.LastStockDate and Today.
How would I write an Access VBA query to give me the amount of days and put that number into a variable.
I was wondering if anybody could help with this. I have searched through this forum and there doesnt seem to be an answer to this.
I have a form that i would like to validate. At present i have put the data validation on the save button which triggers a script that checks to see if certain boxes have been filled in on the form. I can only get this to work be attaching it to the onclick event on a save button, however, what i really want is to be able to ditch the save button (since access writes to the DB as it goes along) and have this script triggered whenever the user tries to navigate to either a new record/ another existing record or close the form
I tried putting this on the beforer update event, but this does not work, additionally tried doing before update event with the code inside an if me.form.dirty = true statement this did not work either, has anybody got any suggestions
Please see my code below
Thanks

Hi, Sorry noob here with a noob question... I built my first database for my work, and I want buttons that can navigate through the records on the form view, but I want them to be like A,B,C,D etc... When I click the button I want it to go to the first last name in the record of that letter of alphabit.... I know it can be done because at my previous employment they had that feature. Please help... I can't figure this out... :confused: Also, how do I import IMT forms into an access database???
I have a form and a subform for data entry.It is often the case that not all the data may have been entered and so a user might need to go to recordID 24 in 30 already entered main records.However, he needs to get to that record via a (unique) 1-1 field. How do I create the form so that as well as being able to go to the first, the last, the next, the previous record, I can go to a record of my choice.
I'm writing a course registration Db. I have a have 3 tables at the moment tblContacts [ContactID], [FName], [SName], [Etc..] tblCourseRegistration[RegID] [ContactID][CourseID] and tblCourses[CourseID] [CourseName] [Etc...]
These are all linked on a tabbed form. I have found that the same Contact can sign up for the same course twice. I need to stop this happening. Is there an easy way to prevent this or do I have to write a query that runs before the save command to prevent this?
Is there any way to view a Saved Import to see what it is doing?
I just inherited a database from someone that has several saved imports. I need to be able to see where the data is coming from and where it is going to so that I can recreate it using VBA.
I have a split database (A2000) on a server; many people use the database at many different terminals. I would like to save the computers identification to the record being created. Any ideas on how to accomplish this? Thanks gMAC
What i want to do is if a user forgets to put lets say Address or Zip Will not allow user to save record but instead will highlight the text boxs that are required. Once data is put in will allow user to save record.
I have a Multi user Access Database which has been split into a Front and Back end. What I am noticing is sometimes when the user enters data into the Front end form, it is not being saved in the Backend tables....
How to confirm when the user clicks save that the data is actually being saved in the backend tables.
I pasted the tables, modules, macros, etc. from one database to another and the only thing left is the Saved Import. How can I get that into another database? It is quite a large import, otherwise i would just recreate it.
I'm working on a "Product Details" form somewhat similar to form in northwind, which the record source in "Products" table. what i'm trying to do is after clicking "save and new" command button to go to new record in form, i would like all text boxes to automatically retrieve the value from last saved record set as default value.
after google searching this subject i found the LastModified Syntax but i just don't understand whether i use it in VB or marco, or even how to implicate this. Should I make macro on each txtbox or should i create module? if i have to create either macro or module.
need information in form to write to report before accepted and saved to separate table, so operators can read it. background:manifest information entered into form in receiving office, analysis ran in lab and then entered into form. When analysis is approved, Operators unload material then truck checks out in receiving office. Need to see analysis before it is written from load_temp table to Load table.
I have a form with my own navigation buttons. The problem is a AddNew button is clicked for a new record, but it automatically adds into the relevant table when I click on the MovePrevious and MoveFirst button without data entry.
Has anyone encountered such problem? Kindly help me.
How can I force a field in a form to be updated before the record is saved / changed?
For instance I have a form with information on it and I want to ensure that any time the form is updated the user fills in a section providing the date and by who it has been updated by. I dont want the record to save unless that information has been filled out, and I also want it to take you to the field if you press save and it hasnt been filled out along with an error message.
To try and be a bit clearer. At current I have a Save and New button. This saves the form if dirty and opens a new record.
I want to add in the step that if record has been changed and FieldA has not just been updated then go to fieldA (Showing a message box). If FieldA has just been updated then save record and open new as normal.
My current save & new button properties are as follows (in Macro Editor)
On error Go To Next If [form].[dirty] RunMenuCommand Command SaveRecord End If If [MacroError].[Number}< >0 Message =[MacroError].[Description] Beep Yes Type None Stop macro On Error Go To Fail Go To Record Record New Go To Control Control name Resort Code
I have written a database in Access 2003, saved as an Access 2000 format. This runs fine on Windows XP workstations. When I install the same system on a Windows 7 system, my login screen launches, the user is able to enter in their name and password. Then nothing happens. What is supposed to happen is a form opens up after the password is entered that applies security written in code based on the user.
I'm merging a few databases together. They're fairly simple on their own but I'd like them as one big database. I read that I should import each access database into a new, blank one.
It all works fine, but none of the saved imports and exports come with them. Unfortunately, these imports and exports are relied upon quite heavily.
Is there a way to bring saved imports over from other databases, or will I have to rebuild each one?
I have designed a database that has two forms as inputs to a table. The first form is a checklist and when it is completed it saves all fields except the ManagerID field. I then use the blank ManagerID, clientID and Date to pull onto a form for the manager to complete. On completion I want the ManagerID to save into the current records so they do not show up in the manager checklist forms and I then have a complete record. I have been searching online and cant seem to see how the best avenue is. I have an append query, see below
Code: INSERT INTO ChecklistResults ( ManagerID ) SELECT ChecklistResults.ManagerID, ChecklistResults.ClientID, ChecklistResults.DateCompleted FROM ChecklistResults WHERE (((ChecklistResults.ClientID)=[Forms]![TeamLeader]![ComClientNotFin]) AND ((ChecklistResults.DateCompleted)=[Forms]![TeamLeader]![ComDateSelect]));
Code: Private Sub CmdAppend_Click() Dim dbsNorthwind As dao.Database Dim rstAmend As dao.Recordset Dim qdfAmend As dao.QueryDef
I have a piece of code that I'm using to display an image on a report based on a path saved to each record. the code is:
Code: Option Compare Database Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) If IsNull(Me.ImagePath) Then Me.ImgPic.Picture = "O:BellinghamIntranetProductionLabelsNo Label.bmp" Else Me.ImgPic.Picture = Me.ImagePath End If End Sub
It seems like every few months the code crashes access and then never works again. When I debug, the part that is highlighted is:
Code: Me.ImgPic.Picture = Me.ImagePath
The only way i've found to correct it is to delete the report and the module and copy them back in from a backup database. What could be causing this code to crash or how to stabalize my database to prevent this from happening again.
I have a data entry form/subform with an embedded graph allowing users to preview the data they input. When I navigate to a new record in this form the the fields in the form and subform echo "#Deleted". Yet the data is still there, it is just not shown in this form.
I have tried copying all the controls and code into a new form but the same error still occurs!
If an answer to this is out there, sorry. I haven't had luck finding anything. I have a form with an unbound combo box. When you select an item from the box, the objects on the form and subform fill in based on the selection. The person using this would like to click arrows to navigate through the combo box. How do I do this?:confused:
I have a form that contains a pretty large list of items and several columns and the list can be sorted by each of these columns. When a user double-clicks on a particular item, another form pops up that lets the user view/modify the item. The problem I'm having is that I still want to be able to use the navigation buttons in that second form, but right now its just saying 1 of 1 (Filtered).
The way I'm applying the sorting is by updating the Rowsource field of the list with an "Order By" statement
