Okay I'm in the process of making a database for a Uni class and need help. The assignment requires a query to be made on a table. The query is meant to be on a table holding records of trainers teaching courses. The query is meant to obtain results of trainers teaching more than one course. I need to know how I can query recurring names or a recurring ID used. Thanks in advance. :)
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recieve Excel worksheets with information and then import this information into a table I have in access. I verify the data and as a last step I append the data to a table called AllReportData2012 which is used to pull information for my reports. Part of the Excel information that is imported to a new table includes the employee's name with work details in each row.
In my access report I do not use the employees name, I use their employee ID number. I have a table in my acess database that contains 2 columns. The employees Name and their associated Employee ID number.After I import the Excel information to Access how do I set up a macro or programming that will look at the name in each row and change it to the correct Employee ID. I could have anywhere from 20 rows of recods to 600 rows of records.
In my db the look up fields show up as numbers.
for example i have a look up field called "company" and i have two companies in it (Reddot & Thingz).
But on report they come up as 1 and 2 instead of their names.
The db is attached.

View 2 Replies View RelatedEvery month I download an Excel spreadsheet from a vendor and import it into Access 2003. Even tho the first row has column names, a dozen fields have incorrect names and data types and I have to manually change them each time. The spreadsheet has columns representing the amount spent for specific months. The column names are all like "May-02", "Sep-03", etc. and are all currency. After the import, many of the fieldnames are like "1/5/02 0:00:00" instead of "May02" and the data type is text. The column formatting is "mmm-yy" on all the columns, even the ones where the field names match the column names. How do I get all the fields to import correctly?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a query that looks through a table and shows me any calls that have a status of either 'O' 'or 'C'. What I would like to have in the query result is the O or C replaced with the words Open or Closed. Then when my count will make alot more sense rather than having O 29 etc.
I have had a look through the forums on the net and I am convinced this question has been asked before, but I am struggling to find the key word to search for

So I have 5 querys exported to an excel file (C:/File.xlsx) using transferspreadsheet.The sheet names are named the same as the query names.Is it possible to change the sheet names (in the file C:File.xlsx) to what I want them to be named in access vba? Either after I export, or possibly change the query name before it is exported (all done in vba).Like a line I would add after transferspreadsheet like oldsheetname.name = newsheetname.Also need to find out how to change field names in the excel file to what I want in vba.

Please help! I am a newbie and VERY confused. I am not a programmer but am just learning so any help much appreciated! I'm not even sure if I've posted this to the right place?
I have so far created a table and also an asscoiated form - they both work! Changes in the form go into the table, no problem EXCEPT where I have a calculated field in the form - this info doesnt go into the table - how do I get this information to go back into the table?
I am trying to do this because I want to include the result of the calculated fields in a mail merge letter in Word (and Word wont pick up fields from my associated form - only from the table or from a query!)
Please rescue a damsel in definite distress (I've been knocking my head against a brick wall on this for 3 hours now!)
Many thanks in advance :D
I have two text fields:
their names are :
field 1 ="txtfilter"
and
field 2: "text333"
How can i change the names of the two fields with vba code?
I need field 1 to get the name of field 2
and field 2 to get the name of field 1
This will be temporarily.

When exporting my tables from access to excel my table names change if they have a space in the name. Example table name "New Record" turns into "New_Record".
What I am trying to do is export the table data to excel than update my access program than imort the table data back. This way I can take a vertion of my access program and update/modify it as time permits than reinsert all current data with min down time.
The code I am using is as follows:
Dim td As DAO.TableDef, db As DAO.Database
Dim out_file As String
out_file = CurrentProject.Path & "excel_out"
Set db = CurrentDb()
For Each td In db.TableDefs

I have a very basic application to manage the tasks. In the main form "Tasks" one of the field is the priority (Order by) and I have this example:
Task Priority
B 1
A 2
C 3
E 4
D 5
If the user change one priority, I need a code to automatically change the others too respecting the new priority order. For example if the user change the priority 3 to 1 for the task C, the other numbers have to change to become:
Task Priority
C 1
B 2
A 3
E 4
D 5
There is a way to do this?
I have a form with several data fields on it. I also have a button on the form that allows the user to duplicate a record . The reason for this duplication is so that if there will be an additional client record for the same customer, but only one piece of data will need to be changed, it's easier to copy the record and then change the one field.
However, I am getting the following message:
"some of the field names you tried to paste don't match fieldnames on the form"
and then not all data in all fields gets duplicated.
I need to figure this out, but am going nuts with it. If anyone has an idea or two they'd care to toss my way, I would be happy.
Thanks one more time, in advance!!
How can I repeat column names and row names on multiple pages of the report ?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm having multiple problems with my database like things such as -
i'm currently working on the Query 2 - On the Phone database (ignore Query 1) and i want to search for multiple plot numbers preferably in one parameter prompt with a comma to seperate numbers. (this could be a multitude of numbers so i would like to be able to input as many as needed). Also when i do search on this query since the Criteria is a 'Between' Value i would expect everything between the 2 numbers input to show up - but a lot of numbers out of the range show up too - why is this? (The Numbers are like "69 to 136" and they will show up - but 1-69 and 136-170 would too
I would also like to implement the search results from Query 2 into the Form i currently have made but it just opens up a access table when the search is made?
i cannot link my database as it is too big for the server - But here are the Criteria for Query 2:
Plot No - (criteria = Between [Enter First Plot No:] And [Enter Last Plot No:])
Site - (criteria = Like "*" & [Enter Site:] & "*")
Product - (criteria = Like "*" & [Enter Product:] & "*"
The Query is the one im most concerned about , i can live without a form.
Ok so in excel I have some numbers that are stored as text. The reason being that they are zip codes and some begin with 0 and excel doesn't want numbers to start with 0....so when I import these into an access field that has an input mask for zip codes...will it convert these correctly since the field is a text with input mask?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have 2 fields that I would like to automate if possible
One field is called "p/o number" and another field called "line no"
These fields are part of an ordering database
Let say I have 200 items to purchase form 10 suppliers
And form example 20 items from each supplier
What I do at present is put the order number on each line item and the line number
example
p/o number line no
1 1
1 2
1 3
2 1
2 2
2 3
2 4
What I want to do is just put the first po number in the required line . Put the first line number in i.e. "1" and the macro will complete all the p/o numbers and line numbers for me as per the ones marked in red.
Example
1 1
2 2
3 3
2 1

I have a table with fields like this one but the weeks go all the way up to 52. What I am trying to do is count the number of consecutive zeros and if it is more than five, count how many of the following fields have a number in them and if that number is less than the number of zeros preceding it identify that person.
For example Joe would be identified below because he had 6 consecutive zeros and then he had 5 weeks of numbers immediately following the string of zeros. Bob would not be identified because he had 5 consecutive zeros and then 5 sets of numbers immediately following the string of zeros so the zero frequency isnt higher than the number frequency immediately following.

I am trying to change the button color on a subform if a related form data changes.Main form is products with a continuous subform with serial numbers of products i.e, serial number, location, price and a button to add addtional issues if there are any for this particular serial number (this will open up another form related to the serial number so I can add an issues if there are any).The reason I would like the button to be a different color is so I can quickly see if there are any additional notes been added to the serial number. Just in case you may ask why not add the field to the continuos form is that the issues and be quite lengthy and there may be lots of serial numbers on the form
2346 location warehouse price 29.99 (button - green)
2347 location shop price 29.99 (button - red)
I have not done much work in later version of Access. Now I found if I change a design in one form and similar forms (names are different) which are linked to the same tables got changed as well without openning them up and making changes. Is this something new with Access 2003?
Thank you very much for help.

My question is how can i devide the above three names into three seperate text boxes.

Once a control has been named and referenced a couple of times it becomes a fraught task to rename said control.
Is there an easy way that controls and their references can be globally renamed, so that the DB continues to work?
I need an opinion. I'm new to access so I'm really lost I have to create a database consisting of 20 clients. Then they gave me 4 steps I had to accomplish:
Create a total of all account balances, so the total number of recievables are known.
For each account, calculate the number of days each balance has been outstanding.
Classify the account into 4 groups three late (30,60,90 days overdue) and one current (under 30 days), Total the amount of outstanding recievables for each catagory.
Sort using number of days balance is outstanding as primary sort key and outstanding balance as the second sort key.
My question is should I make a field called Days overdue and a separate one for outstanding balance. It also seems they want me to do calculations in the table. I thought that was not an excepted taboo? Are the 4 goals possible to accomplish in access? Please give me some help!
I am creating a query that retrieves data from one table and creates a second table. I want to name the columns in the new table using the contents of the controls from a form within the same mdb. The form will be open when this query is run, but I am having trouble creating and saving the query.
Here is a sample of what I am trying to do...Any help is greatly appreciated!!
