I want to delete a relationship temporarily so that I can delete a record. After the record is deleted I will restore the relationship immediately. But I am concerned that this will ruin any queries I have already established or ruin my other records.
Could you let me know if this is possible without making a mess of things that have already been established.
Thanks

Hi, i have created two tables, containing the same fields. One table if for '1 day tests' and the other is for '2 day tests'. I need to keep these two in seperate tables.
At the moment i have two seperate forms, one for each type of test, but as the fields are all the same, i was wondering if i had a combo box, so the user could choose whether they wanted a one day or two day test and filled in the rest of the fields, the record would then be stored in the appropriate table. Ie 2 day test table, if the chose 2 day test on the combo box
Thanx
Hi all,
I have two date and time fields which format are like: 15/09/05 09:48:43,I have another field which calculates the time difference between these two fields. I am doing a calculation on the time difference field and want the time to be displayed as for example 03:00, but at the moment it just shows 3:00.
This is the control source which has some formatting in it:
=Int(CSng((([txtDateDel]-[txtdateRO])-[closed])*24)) & ":" & Format(([txtDateDel]-[txtdateRO]),"nn")
I have tried adjusting this but am having no luck.
I would be grateful of any help,
Thanks :)
How do I use a wildcard in a query, see attached .mdb
Table "myDATA"
Sam and Zeb have serial number 23a4224A and 23a4224 in their records.
I want to locate a serial number(s) in multiple fields of a table, based on the users input with a wildcard.
query "Serial Number query"
Enter Serial Number: the user enters: 23a4224*
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
My combo box problem is still at large!
I've tried every way i can, and i cant get the rowsource query right.
If someone could look at this and post a fix, so that when one uses the "training record" form it allows you only to select course dates that are already in the tbl_course_dates table.
Thanks so much

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a little dbase for personal keeping track of a number of companies I deal with, so that i store their details and also the products they distribute.
In more detail, I want to have 'fixed' product categories, which will be assigned to supplier, and each category will include the product models I have set, including their details (such as price, manufacturer, country of origin, etc).
My point is to be able to create several customised reports and listing:
1. All product models I have in a category including their details.
2. Report per supplier to view their details and the products they distribute
3. Certain product models in a list with their local distributor (companies I deal with).
I assume it involves a couple of many2many relationships, however I have created a file in MS Access but never managed to have it work properly.
Any1 have an idea, or template maybe?
Regards ;)
I have pasted the code that SJ posted on another thread that any changes to a record will ask the user to save before closing the form, this located in the beforeupdate event.
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If MsgBox("Save changes?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo) = vbNo Then Cancel = True
End Sub
The problem i am getting is that if the user selects no it pops up another message saying "You can't save the record at this time" followed by a description.
How do i prevent this second message appearing i cannot find a thread with this in?
Thanks as always

Hi all, long timer viewer, first time poster
Any way, im not nearly as experience as all you, I have a small form, on the form I have a combo box, the form shows the relevant info with regards to what is selected in the combo box, the source of the combo box is a table, the data in the table is alaphabetical, but when you select the combo box the data shown to select from is not alphabetical its all over the place!
Hope that explains it, its driving me nuts!
Hello,
I have a very strange problem:
I have a table linked to an SQL Server table in my MS Access 2000 Application containing 5 text-fields (SQL Server Type, in Access seen as MEMO-fields) and several other fields (in total about 140 fields). Updating any field works fine except for some records. In those records I can only edit the non-text-fields in my application. When I try to edit one of the text-fields I get a error message telling me that another user has edited the record and i have to discard my changes.
The strange thing is that this problem only crops up for some records. (1 in a 100 or so) All other records work fine.
Does anyone know what happens here? And how this can be fixed?
Thanks.

I have a problem about deleting record from a form, it will be grateful if anyone can help me with this.
Here are my tables:
Par_tor: some personal details such as ID, name, phone NO., etc
Par_tion: the record of who has participated which activities.
Activity: name of the activity.
My problem is: the main form of the my form contains the stuffs in table Par_tor, and the subform contains the stuffs in Par_tion, so the user can view these participator's details and the activities they have participated.
In the main form, I also wanted to created a delete button to delete an entire record (including a participator's detail + his/her participation record) at once, but it didn't work since the participation was in the Par_tion table not in the Par_tor.
So is there any way that I can delete these records at once?
Hi
I have a form with a "Clear Form" button on to allow the user to delete the record they are working on without updating the database. A question window pops up asking if they are sure they want to delete the record, if they answer yes the form will clear and re-load without updating the database.
The OnClick Event Procedure will not allow me to delete the data, it always saves. I've tried
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
If MsgBox("Are you sure you want to abandon changes to this record?", vbExclamation + vbYesNo, "LogBook 2002") = vbYes Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
Else
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
End If
but I get the error "2046 - The command or action DeleteRecord isn't available now." Is there another way, a better way?
I have two tables (same data but slightly different attribute structure) with a one-to-one relationship (the join field is "ID"). There are 69 matching records in these tables. How can I delete these matching records from table A, while leaving them alone in table B?
I'm confused because I brought both tables into a select query, created a join from ID to ID (within in the query's design view), and then added all fields from table A to the query. I then ran the select query and saw the 69 records from table A in the query's data view that I wanted to delete, highlighted all records and clicked delete. However, this action deleted the 69 matching records from TABLE B, not Table A!!! How is this possible? What should I do instead? Thanks.
A strange request but I hope someone can help with this one
I have a table (tbl_Econ) where I have to delete a specified number of records from a table. It does not matter which records as long as I delete the exact number
e.g On a form text box I enter the number or records to be deleted (e.g.6000).
The table (tbl_Econ) has 8000 records, so I have to delete 6000 records. I need to be able to do this automatically :eek:
How can I go about deleting records fully? So that there autonumber, etc can be used again without access moaning.
Thanks :D
I have a query (Query1) which returns results In one field recordID.

I am Developing a simple VBA program for Access for my final year of my Degree and I have come up with a problem that I don’t seem to be able to fix.
I have create tables using SQL
SQL = "CREATE TABLE tblInvoiceLines" & _
"(InvoiceNo LONG, PartNo LONG," & _
"Quantity LONG)"
DoCmd.RunSQL (SQL)
Deleting this with the below code works,
SQL = ""
'This will delete the Invoice Line Table
SQL = "DROP TABLE tblInvoiceLines"
DoCmd.RunSQL (SQL)
But once I alter the table with the below code the Delete command doesn’t work, does anyone know how I can fix this problem?
SQL = "ALTER TABLE tblInvoiceLines " & _
"ADD CONSTRAINT fkInvoiceNo " & _
"FOREIGN KEY NO INDEX (InvoiceNo) REFERENCES " & _
"tblInvoices (InvoiceNo) " & _
"ON UPDATE CASCADE " & _
"ON DELETE CASCADE "
conDatabase.Execute SQL
Thanks

Hi All,
I have a very simple name and address DB. What I would like to know is "What is the easiest way of finding a record using the switchboard and then deleting that record from the DB?"

Hi All
I have 2 tables "Customers" and "Work in Progress (WIP)"
The "WIP" table is result of the form "WIP" where I input all my data for each job completed. I use a lookup control "JobNo" to input the customer details from the table "Customers".
The objective is to call up the customer details into "WIP" add the job details, then on save, delete the record in the "Customers" table.
If this is possible, could you give me some ideas how.
Thanks in Advance.

Let's say we have a table:
Sipping branchReceiving BranchProduct #Qty to ship
a c PR1 43
a d PR1 25
a k PR1 1
....
Now I want to delete all lines that have same product code and shipping branch as a privous line.
So the only max amounts for each product and each shipping branch will remain.
How to delete those lines?
Thank you.
Hi.
Is there a way to delete multiple queries or tables when in Design View, rather than 1 at a time?

Hi,
how would i go about deleting a set of records? i can get a list of records together in a query taken from 4 tables and would need to, if necessary, delete a single line. not all information needs to be deleted from all 4 tables though? the info to be deleted would only be deleted from 1 or 2 tables being the last 2 in the relationship.
i guessed it might be an append query but im not too familiar with them.
any chance of a possible suggestion?
many thanks,
NS
