I have a database I use at work for writing up non-conformance reports and we have 5 different dispositions(see picture) but when we run our report, they show up as numbers(1-5). I want to know how to get them to show up as text. I went into the main table and changed the "disposition" category to text and changed each button to show what text I wanted it to but for some reason it wont save. When I go back and click the radio button and bring up the properties, it reverts back to a number. I just want our dispositions to show up as the text(Use As Is, Rework, RTV, etc) instead of numbers when we run our monthly report.

I'm an Access newbie, self-taught. I can make a basic form to input data.
What I'm trying to create is a tool for assessing aquisition of student skills. I want to be able to check that a student knows the name of a letter or the sound of a letter - but have the check recorded as a date in the datasheet.
Is this possible? And, can you explain to me how to do this in language I can understand? I'm not a programmer you see
I would like to store the string in my table when I choose a string from a combobox or radio button in the form.For example, if I choose 'Business' ( from major field in my department table ) in my combobox, I expect there is a 'Business' in my major field in my department table. And if I click radio button labled 'A' (position field), I expect there will be 'A' in the position field in my table. However, those only store numeric values, for example '3' for 'Business' and '1' for 'A' in the table. How can I store the 'real value' in my table instead of number when I choose them.
I am having a frustrating problem with a report filter I have been using for years. The filter works fine if the data is a number, but I am using it for text this time and it simply will not filter the report because I am unable to have the text display as per below. I need to be able to put a qutotation mark before and after the text so that the report filter will recognise and apply the filter appropriately.
I have an Access database where we grade reports. At the end of the grading form I have a memo field [Comments] for the grader to enter comments about why the report received the grade [Grade]. Each report is graded by multiple people. So for example, ReportNum 08-001 may be graded by 5 people and therefore will have 5 records in the database. I need a report to show all the comments for all the reports where the grade is <80. I know how to do this except for how to display all the comments from the memo field in the 5 records on one report for that ReportNum.
i need to create a text field and button in a form that will show all the records for a particular JobNo in a report once the txt has been typed and the button is clicked, i.e if I type JobNo001 I need to to create a report showing all the information for that JobNo(but there can be multiple JobNo's).
Do i have to create a query for this. I am new to this so please be gentle
Hello, I am not sure what cateogory to choose for this question but I would greatly appreciate your help.
I have 5 buttons in my option group: 1. very often 2. often 3. occasionally 4. rarely 5. never
I have to produce a report using description of each button in my report, not numeric value. I heard something about global variable but I am not sure how to do it.
My database has Main form and a Sub form. On main form i place one unbound text box named investigations. In subform of which datasheet there is a column named TestCode. I want unbound text box (Investigations) to display row values which selected in a column (TestCode) of subform.for example:Investigation field should display "CBC,HB,ALP".
I'm trying to pull a date from a table into a text box on a form tab control using DLookup and I just can't figure out what is wrong with my DLookup expression:
=DLookUp("DateOrdered","tDateOrdered","PrNumber=" & [PrNumber]) ----- (DateOrdered is short date, PrNumber is text, db is split Access 2013)
Whats missing in this expression? I've tried every criteria variant I could find but to no avail.
I have a form with 7 List boxes linked to 7 Query's which in turn are linked to a table. Each list box if for a particular trade.
I am trying to select a person or persons from each List box and then have them sent to a report. I have Code to do one list box, but do not know how to link all boxes with code to a 'Open report' button.
The code I am using is as follows:-
Private Sub cmdOpenReport_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdOpenReport_Click Dim strWhere As String Dim ctl As Control Dim varItem As Variant 'make sure a selection has been made
Is it possible for a command button to appear on a form only if a certain condition is fulfilled ? Otherwise it is invisible. The condition would be that one of the field entries on the form must equal a specific value.
How might I make that happen ?? (I'm a beginner !)
Is there a way to show the toggle buttons in an option group as NOT selected when the form first loads up? I've cleared all the default value properties in the table and the form but it always loads as showing one of the buttons pressed/selected. I want the form to load and both buttons in the group look the same.
If Me!Type = "Workboat" Then Me!DWT.Visible = False End
This works fine but where the TYPE field is enetred as another category other than workboat, the DWT field is still missing. Am I missing the Else part?
I have a table and a form called patient demo. It displays last name first name and address city state zip. I created another table and form called insurance as radio buttons i have the following self, spouse, child, other. It also displays last name first name address, city, state and zip as text boxes. what i want the radio button to do is when i click self it will copy all information from patient demo to insurance form. I tried to do this several ways but every time i change the information in the insurance form it also changes the patient demo which i dont want it to do because i want to edit that box without changing patient demo. any ideas.
I'm somewhat new to access and I'm having a small problem. I have create a web based form via Frontpage 2003 using the access database wizard. In one part of my form I have 6 different options (radio buttons) for a user to select. I want the user to be able to select "multiple options" that apply not just one which is all it is doing right now. How do I change this to allow multiple selection? I opened up my results table and went into the design mode and I can't figure out where to allow multiple selections. Thank you for any help you can provide.
I have documents (mostly Word) stored in an Access table. The table contains two fields. (1) a text field with the document's name and (2) an OLE field that holds the document.
When I press a button with the document's name on it (or it could be a hyperlink or a dropdown) on a form then I would like the document stored in the matching OLE field to open in the appropriate program for that document.
If I could set the permissions of the document to read-only then that would be great too. If I could prompt for read-only or read-write (no password necessary) access upon opening then that would be even better.
I can store documents in the table, but I have no idea how to launch them from a form button (or hyperlink, or dropdown).
Note: This is all within Access. This is not a web page related question.
I have a form thats already created. I would like to put a box or something next to a button so I can monitor when the last time the button was pushed. Ive seen it somewhere before and never took a moment or a need to see how it was put together.
