Generate New Rec. In Another Table On Error
Oct 12, 2005
I'm a novice in fact this is my first serious try at creating a database. I'm setting up a database to track contracts both potential and active for marketing. This will be converted to a SQL when I have it finished. I have a customer table setup in the fashion of a contact list. Most of my forms need to access the information in it via a list box. I want to set these list boxes to generate a new record in my customer table if the name that is entered is not currently in that list. By using the event option "On not in list" I'm able to get the form for the customer table to open but when the new data is saved and the Customer form is closed the information is not available to the list box. How do I get it to update the list box without having the user start from scratch on that particular form?

I am building a simplified re-order point system - if inventory position drops below a certain level (the yellow level is this case) one or more purchase order lines has to be created in another table.
I have one table with the following field and data:
ItemId Red Yellow Green Multiple Inventory position
0001 10 30 50 5 45
0002 5 40 47 5 23
0003 11 20 30 10 5
I would like to generate new records (in another table) based on the above fields and three records.Basically the end result should look as the following:
ItemId Qty Start inv Aggregated inventory Prioritization
0002 5 23 28 Yellow
0002 5 28 33 Yellow
0002 5 33 38 Yellow
0002 5 38 43 Green
0002 5 43 48 Green
0003 10 5 15 Red
0003 10 15 25 Yellow
0003 10 25 35 Green
The logic is quite simple - if inventory position is less than the yellow value new order lines should be created in multiple qty (based on the multiple field) until the aggregated value (in table 2) is above the green value.The priotization value should be based on the start inv (in tbl 2) compared to the values in red, yellow and green in tbl 1.

I have 2 tables
- Staff Position(Unique Position Name, Description, Hierarchy)
- Training (ID, Name, Description etc.)
I essentially want a table with Staff Position as the Field, and Training as the Rows. The intersecting entries/matrix will be Yes/No to say whether that staff positions requires that training.
Simple Example
..................... Worker ........ Senior ........ Principal
IT Training ......YES ............. YES .............. YES
Accounts ......... NO ............. YES .............. YES
Management ... NO ............. NO ............... YES
I need the user to be able to add as many training entries and as many staff positions as they want. It doesn't HAVE to be that sort of format...

I currently have tables that are in the database but they require the user to import the data from an excel file. This works fine however due to the data being imported I only require certain columns from the import, this is where I would use a query.
The data of the import will always have the same column headings. Firstname, lastname, usernumber etc..Unfortunately i'm not quite sure how I could get a script to generate a query of the selected columns after an import is completed.

I have a table with a field that contains IDs, e.g.
123
456
789
I would like to generate a single string from this table, seperated by commas, e.g. 123, 456, 789 and output to a field in an existing table. This will then be used in a SQL statement.I am new to VBA and don't reallly know where to start/

I have a table called bookings, three records within that table are;
arrivaldate
departuredate
breakfast
This Table (Bookings) is linked to the guest table via GUESTID..Assuming that a guest arrive on the 5th and leaves on the 10th, I am trying to create a breakfast voucher for the guest for each day of their stay.
So 5 vouchers, 1 each for the 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th.I have created the breakfast voucher as a report and a query to include data but I dont know how to propagate the new data to actually create the vouchers. All I can get is data for the arrival or departure fields.

I Have a table with 15000 entries. This table lists components we use. This table is used to generate queries/forms. I have been asked to add a hyperlink to this table to link to a drawing of the component. All the drawings are in PDF and in the same folder. I am looking for a way to automatically update the hyperlink fields all at once. The Hyperlink will be in the format of servershareddrawings12345.pdfwhere 12345 is the component name from the table.
But there are a few small problems with the component names.
1. If the component begins with a B- . The drawing name will be all the characters except when there is a second dash in the component. So if the component is B-12345-678 the drawing name will only be B-12345.
2. If The component begins with AB, The drawing will be the first 5 characters regardless of what follows, e.g. AB123.
3. Finally for all other components the full component name will be the drawing name.
Putting the naming to one side, how to go about auto generating the hyperlink. I have posted this in the table section, but maybe this should be in another section like queries or VBA.

I have two tables, submit and imgdest. Submit is edited by front-end users to load pictures for back-end users who then delete the images when they're done with them. Submit is edited by a form, in the form I've placed a button (Command37) that has code:
Code:
Private Sub Command37_Click()
Call InsertData
MsgBox "Completed", "0", "Completed Backup"
Exit Sub
End Sub
Private Sub InsertData()
[code]....
This code was working for a short while, now anytime it's run I get error 3027 - Cannot update. Database or object is read-only. However, I can open the linked table and manually change information in it with no problems.

I have a single table called "Books". One column is "Book title" and one is "Author(s)".
One author may have written several books, and one book may be co-authored by several authors.
It should be ok to use the analyze function to normalize the table into 3 tables. (autors, books and booksauthors_xref)
The problem is that the Authors-column contains one or more autors separated by ;
When I use the analyze function I only get the first autor in the join table. Since authors "AA ; BB" are treated as one, not to entities I had to split the field into a "co-autor" column and manually add one and one co author.
Is it a smarter vay to do the normalization?

Hi,
I have the following very general question, but I hope you can give me a few hints so I can start and find things out on my way.
I just created a database which via VBA procedures runs all kinds of queries and puts the results in tables, for instance I have about 20 tables now with 10 fields each and for every table I want to run the same type of report.
I already made one report for one table via the report wizard, I would like to use the layout of this table for all other tables using a VBA code, so when I run this code it will create all these reports for me.
What is the best way to start?
Many thanks!

Hello, I'm a newb to this forum but I'm kind of desperate. So any help someone can offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time in reading this. Please be advised, I am not a super access programmer, but I got nudged into this. I was asked to create a Access 2002 db for one of our Admin VP's that will allow her to track office supplies from our location to 5 other locations. This db would be able to accurately compile quantities, costs, location of these supplies. I created a table that would hold all the information I wanted to know. Pretty basic stuff:StoreItem HeadingItem DetailQuantity costCommentsI wanted the user to be able to input the supplies into their respective store and fill in the above. I have a lookup wizard for the store field which has all our other stores in there. I tried to do the same thing with the Item Detail field. I had about 8 pages of items that I inputed into the lookup wizard when I finished I saved my work and the lookup had everything I'd just typed in there, so I thought I was home free. Until when i closed the table and opened it again I received an error that says the following:"The setting for this property is too long. You can enter up to either 255 or 2,048 characters for this property."I click ok to move past the error box.Then all of the items I'd inputted disappear from the lookup field for Item Detail I just spent 15 minutes typing in. It's done this on all 4 of my attempts.I'm taking this to mean that I've inputed way too many items and Access just can't handle it? I'm trying to verify if that's the case (hopefully one of you here on the forum can help me out with that)The lookup wizard for Item Detail had information in there about the types of supplies, eg "Post Its 3 x 3" or "Copy Paper 8 1/2 x 11" and so on so the user would only have to type the beginning of it in and it and then just click off on it. I did it that way because when they want to run a report to see how man "Post Its," are in company "a" there would be almost no way they could oops it.Any suggestions how I can get past this, or if there is a way to keep all of those look up items in there without the error.Or, if there might be an easier way to do this.Thanks in advance for your advice.Regards,- Neo

I have to generate unique code for each person in an Employee table. This code will not be the primary key for this table. Primary key is an auto number. This Unique code is for refering to each person in all the correspondence/document/everywhere and every person will know his code and refer in all the correspondance.
I want to make a column in this table for this code. There can be two criteria for this code generation--
1. The code will be First alphabet of first name followed by sr no for that letter in 4 digits. Say Mr. Andrew is 99th person with alphbet A then his code will be A0099. Or Miss Jany is first person with letter J, her code will be J0001.
OR
2. The code will be a five digit 7 digit number--of which the first 4 digits are year of joining in organisation and remaining 3 digits are joining serial number of this person in that year.Say Mr. Andrew is 12th person who joined in 1996 then his code will be 1996012. Or Miss Jany is 118th person who joined in 2000, her code will be 2000118. For this I will add two columns namely Joining Year and SrNo in this Table.
I want the Access, by some means to generate this code based on the above critaria in one table.Can you people help me with the ideas about achieving this task. Presently we are manually assigning these codes.

Hello all,
Is there a way that I could put a command button on my form and on clicking it, it would generate a word document (I have a word document saved) but on the word document, it would populate the address field with the information on the form. I have about 5 fields on the form that will be used in the word document.
I thought about creating a report in access instead, but I might want to edit the word document manually, is there a way to do this?
Thanks much.

I have a talbe called LOOP in access. The fields in it ar appl,sales_table,title_code,and passalong.
From this table i want to autogenerate sql and run them in a vb function through access.
My first step was crating the sql. I did it using this query.
SELECT "DOCMD.RUNSQL "&"'"&"SELECT tsr,title "&title_code&" ord_time from "&sales_table&"'"
This generates the following vb command:
DOCMD.RUNSQL "SELECT tsr,title,q2_title,ord_time from appl_sales"
The genrated sql will be a insert into query but this is just an example.
Now this will give me the sql that i want. But I have no idea how to get that into a function.
Basically say it generates 10 different vb commands i need that to run as one function. Is there a way to do this through Access and VB.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hello Again,
I have an ID field that I want a custom ID generated based on Name, Phone Number & Record Number.
Here is the code I'm currently using....
'User moved out of supplier name field
Public Sub SupplierName_LostFocus()
If Me.NewRecord = True Then 'If user adidng new supplier
SupplierNameTemp = UCase$(Left$(SupplierName, 3)) 'Store 3 characters from supplier name
End If
nd Sub
'User moved out of suppliers phone number field
Public Sub SupplierPhoneNo_LostFocus()
If Me.NewRecord Then 'If adding a new supplier
supplierPhoneNoTemp = UCase$(Right$(SupplierPhoneNo, 4)) 'Get 4 right characters of phone #
End If
End Sub
I then have a procedure which combines the two strings such as....
Private Sub GenerateSupplierId()
SupplierID=SupplierNameTemp+SupplierPhoneNoTemp
End Sub
The problem is when I check the SupplierPhoneNoTemp & the SupplierNameTemp within the GenerateSupplierID procedure. The contain no information meaning the SupplierID will have nothing as well.
However, when I check SupplierNameTemp within the Public Sub SupplierName_LostFocus() & SupplierPhoneNoTemp within Public Sub SupplierPhoneNo_LostFocus(). They both contain the proper info. It seems they loose this information when moving outside their procedures.
Does anyone know why this would happen & how I could fix this?
Thanks.

I am working on a database for our health services office, which includes a table "Tbl_Patients"
THe Key in this table is a number the office will enter. They have an ID number for existing patients that they will use when they come in.
However, should a new patient come to the office, they would like for the database to assign a new number, the first one starting at 4000.
I would like to put a command button on the new patient form that says "Assign Number" and have that number generated and used as the new ID.
THis may not be real clear, so ask if you have any questions
Thanks in advance!
