Help With Simple SQL Code Required Please
Apr 30, 2005
Hi,
I have a database with 8 tables. One of these being staff
I have staffID as a Primary key in the table staff
The format of this is "STA"0000
and input mask "STA"9999
I would like staffID to be automatically generated by taking the value of the previous staffID (eg STA0001) and creating a new staffID for the next member of staff that is to be added (eg, STA0002).
I have access experience but have never had to use SQL code and am struggling. If anyone could be kind enough to help me with this I would be very grateful.
Thank You
Nicholas

hi. I am trying to write a code to sum the total cost of all jobs that are selected as 'yes' in a combo box.
Once the user selects 'yes' in a combo box, they enter in a cost for that specific job. Each client may have 10s of jobs. I need to write a code that will sum up all the 'yes' selected jobs for a client. I know it should be an 'if' statement but I can't seem to get it to work. I need this value for a report. How would I do this and where would i put the code.
Help is appreciated.

Works great, but when I hit the number "3", (3 times in row) it will let me into the form. I want it to not let me in IF I don't know the password.
Where did I go wrong?
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim pw As Variant
If InputBox("What is the password?", "Password") = "1" Then
Else
MsgBox "Invalid Password", vbCritical, "Sorry Charlie"
DoCmd.Close
If InputBox("What is the password?", "Password") = "2" Then
Else
MsgBox "Invalid Password", vbCritical, "Sorry Charlie"
DoCmd.Close
End If
End If
End Sub

I need code that I can incorporate with the code below, that will notify a user when required fields are left blank so that they have to go back and fill it in before updating the record. Below are the objects (shown in the order they appear on the form):
cmbModel
txtSerialNo
txtExpDate
txtPONo
cmbOfficeLoc
If any of the objects above are empty, the user should be prompted to go back and fill them in setting the focus back to the first empty object (again the fields above are in order). If conditions are not met, do not run the code below. If the conditions are met then proceed with the code below.
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim strMsg As String
Dim iResponse As Integer
' Specify the message to display.
strMsg = "Do you wish to save the changes?" & Chr(10)
strMsg = strMsg & "Click Yes to Save or No to Discard changes."
[Code] ......

I am checking to see if a memo field and/or a text field has more than 1000 characters and if so then it calls a function that prints legal size paper vs. 8 X 11. It works fine except when the either field is empty. I have searched and searched the Forum and found many that are close but no cigar!
I know this involves a "IsNull" routine and I know I need to check both fields but can't quite come up with the right syntax. Right now if either field is empty I get an error msg = "Invalid use of Null"
Could someone please help?! Thanks in advance once again!
This is the basic code after setting the focus,etc....
If Len(strMsg) > 1000 Then
cmdOpenLegPrnt_Click
Exit Sub
End If

So far I have a query that picks up any collisions between booking dates with the following:
SELECT [Customer Details].[CustomerID], [Booking].[RoomNumber], [Booking].[DateFrom], [Booking].[DateTo]
FROM [Room Details] INNER JOIN ([Customer Details] INNER JOIN Booking ON [Customer Details].[CustomerID]=[Booking].[CustomerID]) ON [Room Details].[RoomNo]=[Booking].[RoomNumber]
WHERE DateFrom Or DateTo Between [Forms]![Bookings]![DateFrom] And [Forms]![Bookings]![DateTo] And ([BookingID]<>[Forms]![Bookings]![text38]) And (RoomNumber=[Forms]![Bookings]!RoomNumber)
ORDER BY [DateFrom] And [DateTo];
But the problem is that it doesn't pick up dates inbetween DateTo and DateFrom. So:
Booking 1
12/12/06
20/12/06
Booking 2
13/12/06
19/12/06
On trying to book Booking 2 it will not notify me of 'no clashes' when there are. As it isn't passing by the 12th or 20th my SQL doesn't pick it up.
Can anybody help me? I'm new to code so I'm probably missing the obvious but all help will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Luke

Just arrived here, so I hope this question is in the correct forum.
Here is my question
I have one field called ContractType, another field called Contract Description.
What I like to do is if ContractType = CO and Contract Description, DO NOT HAVE TEXT IN THE Contract Description field, flash the Contract Description field. How do I identify if there is text fill out in the Const_Description field?
This is what I have so far:
Private Sub Form_Timer()
If Me.ContractType = "CO" Then
Me.Const_Description.Visible = True
Else
Me.Const_Description.Visible = Not Me.Const_Description.Visible
End If
End Sub
I hope I made this easy to understand. Very new at Code.
Thanks
Joe

I got this to work easily on another form but on this particular form it doesnt work. I enter a command button and name it d1, then I enter this code for it to populate the current date in the field next to the box:
Private Sub d1_Click()
Date_Entered.Value = Date
End Sub
Can anyone see why it doesnt work :eek:
ERROR IS:
Run-time error '2465':
Database cant find the field 'Date' referred to in your expression.
When I enter a date field it enders whats in that field (blank) into the field I told it (Date_Entered) on my form.

Form: frmProduct
Field: unitprice.
I have some simple validation that unit price is greater than 0. The code is this:
If Me.txtUnitPrice.Value <= 0 Then
MsgBox "Please enter a value greater than zero", vbOKOnly, "Alert"
Me.txtUnitPrice.Value = Null
Me.txtUnitPrice.SetFocus
End If
However, when I run it, the setfocus doesn't work. It jumps straight into the next field. I can make it run to any other field (productname, productID). But not back to UnitPrice.

I found this simple password code that I use to open some forms:
Code:Dim x As Stringx = "password"Dim y As Stringy = InputBox("Enter password for form")If x <> y ThenMsgBox ("Invalid password")DoCmd.CancelEventEnd If
I would like to use it in a switchboard button, but the following statement is
OnClick already "=HandleButtonClick(4)". How can I incorporate this statement
with the code?
(I guess I don't really understanding how the auto-switchboard works.)
As always...Thank You

hiya every1, (access 2k3)
quick easy question, as im a noob when it comes to coding/vb.
Within our company database we have the usual timesheet table. With the table I have create a query (called "dailytimeforkeith") that gives me the sum of time for an individual person for one day (in fact its the previous day). What I have done then is created a form (called "keithyesterdaytime") that shows this query entry (called "sumoftimespent").
Each user has a different database screen logon and forms that are present when they log in. So what I then done is on one of these forms the load up, i attached this:
Private Sub Employee_Enter()
Me.Employee = User.FirstName
If Me.Employee = "Keith" Then
Dim stdocname As String
stdocname = "keithyesterdaytime"
DoCmd.OpenForm stdocname, , , acAdd
............
then on "keithyesterdaytime" opening the following code runs
------------------------------------------------------------
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Dim internal1 As Integer
internal1 = Forms!keithyesterdaytime.SumOfTimeSpent
If internal1 < 6 Then
DoCmd.Close
MsgBox " Less than 6 hours have been entered " & Chr(13) & " into your timesheet for yesterday. ", vbCritical, Title1
Else
DoCmd.Close
End If
End Sub
-------------------------------------------------------
Whenever i logon with the user keith, i get the following error 'runtime error 2427: You entered an expression that has no value.
If I open the form "keithyesterdaytime" on its own, the code works and i dont get an error.
What have i done wrong, and be gently. HEHEHE. Also is there any easy way i can do this instead of having to create the the form "keithyesterdaytime"

Ok I am right now making a simple Vendor/Product database to create a line sheet for some sales folks. I have 3 tables: Vendors, Products, and an associate entity Vendors_Products to relate the two. I have a form currently that draws the Vendor Name (primary key) from the Vendor table and the Product Name from the associate entity. This allows me to create new vendors and select current product types from a drop down box. The problem is that the drop down box is too long and it is tiresome when 1 vendor has 10 product types.
Can anyone tell me how to resolve this? I thought it would be better to have option buttons and display all available products. Then you could just click all of the option buttons that apply to that Vendor and it would create the relationships...is this possible?

I protect my code from people being able to read it by setting a password on the code from Tools > Properties, selecting the Protection tab and entering a password, and clicking "Lock Project"
Is there a way to write code that will remove that Lock Project check and check it back on?
I've looked through the Application.SetOption command and it doesn't seem to be one of the choices. It would be very helpful if someone knew how to do this.
Thanks

Commission: 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.
Please Please Please Please. ....................................

I am fairly new to Access and may very well be trying to walk before I can run.
I have an Excel Spreadsheet that is currently used to produce a Nominal Roll that is listed by the following:
Surname
Enlisted Month
Enlisted Year
POP Month
POP Year
I know how to transfer it across to Access.
I then need to be able to produce lists (The listings order needs to be Enlisted Month/Year then POP Month/Year) that can then be merged into tables 4 columns wide (where at the top of each table is a General Comment) and the names run down in alphabetical order then move across to the next column.
(Basically for example I have 24 names that needs to be divided by 4)
hopefully that is as clear as mud, any help would be greatly appriciated

How do I set the Required property for field that already exists via SQL. I'm thinking along the lines of: ALTER TABLE table1 ALTER COLUMN field1 text(50) NOT REQUIRED.
But this doesn't work, any clues?
