Help Needed Urgently ... Pls Pls Pls
Jun 14, 2007Hi,
i have got a database which consists of table, queries, forms and reports.
I have one problem now is that I wan to do a query that will be able to bring the figure from another field to the current one.
ok say i have got Ref_No, Event_Date, Balance_BF, Adjustment, Balance.
so if say this is the first event for this particular ref_no (1234) it will bring the amount from another table (Principle_Table) linking the same ref_no (1234) to the Balance_BF fields,
If this is not the first event for this particular ref_no (1234) it will then bring the amount from the previous event Balance field to the current event Balance_BF field.
I am very lost how to do this. Is there a way doing this using query?
This is wat i mean
Ref No Event Date Balance_BF Adjustment Balance
06/00014 31-May-06 115140 -5,757.00 $109,383.00
06/00014 31-Aug-06 109383 -5,757.00 $103,626.00
06/00014 30-Nov-06 103626 -5,757.00 $97,869.00
06/00014 28-Feb-07 97869 -5,757.00 $92,112.00
U can see that the Balance_BF is actually brought down figure from the previous Balance starting from the second events. For the first event, the Balance_BF is actually draw down from another table (Principles_Table)
Is there a way to do this using query?

Jan 22, 2005I have been trying to solve this problem for two weeks and am almost tearing my hair out! I have attached a scaled down version of the database I am working in - could some kind person have a look at it and help me, please?
I am trying to make a combo box on my form that will allow me to click on the CID (CustomerID) field, let me click on my customer, and have the rest of the fields filled in automatically.
I have followed the instructions in 'Step by Step - Microsoft Access 2000' to do this, but although it shows the fields, I can't actually select them on the form....

Jan 2, 2005Hey guys. I'm an A level ICT student (british exam) and I am currently working on a patient management database in Access as a project for the A2. So far all has been going well. The problem lies within one of my forms. The form (called frmTreatment) is a form with a subform. The main form contains patient and treatment data, whilst the subform allows for costs to be added to the system. The problem is that when making a combo box to select a patient by the option "Find a record on...combo box", the combo box does absolutely nothing. It brings up an empty list, whereas it should bring up Patient ID, Patient Name and Patient Surname. I suspect its a problem with the relationships. What the combo box should do is bring up patients from tblPatients and subsequently present data on them in the rest of the form's fields.
The second problem is with the subform. I want to add a combo box that allows the user to select the cost from the tblCosts, much in the same way with the afforementioned Patients combo box. Yet subforms won't allow new objects to be added and I can't see any way of making Cost ID perform such a function.
Can someone please help me by having a look at my project, and in particular the frmTreatment? I can't seem to pinpoint the error out and everything seems fine. I've done normalisation and everything already. The project is due after the Xmas holidays, plus its difficult to get in touch with my ICT instructor now. So any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Elh
PS: If you're willing to help give me your e-mail so I can send a zipped version of the project to you in order for you to help.

Jul 26, 2007Commission: IIf([Amt]<=10000,30), IIf(Int([Amt]/1000 Between 10000 And 50001)*3.5+3.75)
What I required to do is that when amount is greater than or equal to 10000 than Amt multiply by 30 simply.
and when amount is between 10000to 50001 than Amt/1000 multiply by 3.5+3.75
means that when amount is 15000 than according to per 1000 it will be calculated.
please dear help me out in this I required it very very urgently.

Apr 29, 2005I need some help on a database that is set up for work use.
It's rather large and I have no technicial knowledge of access whatsoever so an answer in plain english would be appreciated.
I have attached a picture of the screen that i am having the problem with. The blank fields contain peoples names and addresses. On this page i have to click on "update service user" on the first user, the database opens a seperate page and i enter a few details, then i click to go back to this screen.
When I return back to the screen, the scroll bar is at the top of the list. This is OK when I am doing the first few letters of the alphabet (the users are listed alphabetically) but when i have too use the scroll bar and choose the letters later down the list, then click to update then return to the screen and the scroll barr is not where i left it...ie: it's at the top.
So what I am asking is, is there a way of freezing this scroll bar so it will stay there even when i have navigated away from the screen to update each user?
If someone could answer me this query then I would be most grateful as it's quite time consuming for me to use the scroll bar and find the next person that i need to update.

Mar 15, 2006Hi, looking for help big time!! I am a novice at using MS Access and struggling like hell. I have been set a project at University that requires me to import data from Excel, sort the data (i.e the data imported will be for a whole year and I am only interested in looking at single months), use calculations on the data imported and display this graphically. Is this possible with Access?? Any help will be gladly received as Im desperate.:(

Sep 18, 2006I have a multiple user access database on share drive with user-security level created. I created myself as administrator, and remove default Admin from Admin group. Removed permission from user group and joined workgroup file which I created as "MBS work group.mdw". I created shortcut on user's computer. I believe the syntax is correct
"C:Program FilesOffice 2003OFFICE11MSACCESS.EXE" /wrkgrp "\ServerNameMBS DatabaseMBS Work Group.mdw" "\ServerNameMBS DatabaseMBS.mdb"
Everything works fine. When I directly double click the database (MBS.mdb), it pops up a login box. However, when other user double clicks the database directly (not from shortcut) from their station, login window doesn't pop up. It allows them to access the database. I saw the work group file used default System.mdw
My question is how can I restrict them by double clicking the database without go through shortcut? Why my database security not protect user access without give user name and password. I tried by joined user’s work group file to MBS work group.mdw. It works, but I don’t want let user manually to do that one by one.
Is there anybody can help me go through this problem?

Jan 11, 2007Hi,
I am fairly new to DB's and have been trying to get my head round a database I want to build. I have had a few pointers from other people on here which has helped etc.
I was wondering if anyone out there would mind helping me with this project. I will go into detail if anyone is interested. I am hoping that someone would let me add them to messenger so when I get stuck etc, I could drop them a quick note. I am not going to harrass you every minute of the day (I promise not to try to anyway :D ). I would like to work with someone so I dont have to keep explaining it to someone different each time.
If this is something that someone wouldnt mind doing, please, please, please let me know.
Many thanks
Jamie

Apr 21, 2007So far I haven’t got help on my DB.
I am attaching my DB.
The DB has two tables: DiaryTable & RBCaseTable
I want to resolve two issues on this DB
First issue: The DyNo field will start from No.1 on new year (DMax function). Since there will be duplicate records with the same DyNo for every year, I want to filter the records year-wise. For the current year, I should be able to do data entry, edit, search, print etc. For the previous year’s records, no data entry should be allowed and only search and print to be allowed.
Second issue: Two fields in both the tables are same i.e. DyNo and Remarks. I want this to be linked. What I want to do is that after I open ‘frmRBCaseAdd’ when I type the DyNo, the form should show the ‘Remarks’ field of DiaryTable so that I could update/edit.
I know nothing about VBA coding etc. Whatever codes I put in this DB was obtained from this forum and I simply made changes to suit my requirements. However, I failed to get help on these two issues. I shall be grateful if you could kindly help me. Thanks in advance.

May 9, 2007I need help please.
1. I have a [CmdBtn] to do some calculation on the first day of every month.(The Btn and calculation code are ready and working).
2. On clicking, the [CmdBtn] will look for [FieldTotal] entry. If no entry, it will execute.(This code is also fine and working).
3. While executing the command, it will populate the [FieldTotal] automatically so that second clicking of [CmdBtn] will take no action and the populated field will tell the user that calculation is already done.(Code for auto-populating is also fine and working)
4. On the last day of the month, the [FieldTotal] entry will be deleted.(Here also the code works fine.).
I have two tables Table1 & Table2. I have the form for Table1. The [FieldTotal] is in Table2. I inserted a TextBox in form and tried to link it to Table2.FieldTotal throu Data-ControlSource, but it is not working. When I open the form ‘#Name?’ appears in the [FieldTotal]. I tried changing the field property to Text and then Number. In both options, I get the same ‘#Name?’.
Interestingly, when I leave the text box as it is without linking it to Table2, the [FieldTotal] in my form appears blank. Here I am able to populate the [FieldTotal]. But when I exit and reopen the form, the text box is again blank.
Please guide me (1) in linking the Table2.[FieldTotal] to my text box in form (which is based on Table1) or (2) how to keep the text box entry permanent till the end of the month.

Mar 12, 2006I have searched the archives for hours but no luck.
I came across a sample db a while back that had a text field and two buttons on a form.
One button let you browse for the file name and it stored the result in the text box. The other button opened the result stored in the text box.
Has anyone a copy of this sample db or something similar.
Thanks in advance
