I am creating a database at my job. The database tracks how many hours a CONSULTANT spent with a CLIENT vs. the number of hours the CLIENT has bought. The hours from the CONSULTANT are entered into three different subforms (because there are a few "types" of hours). I want the total number of hours bought (entered/shown in the parent form) to subtract the hours the consultant worked (hours entered/shown in the sub forms). I half-way got it to work but I am making several entries in each subform and I need to calculate ALL hours. If someone could please help, I would greatly appreciate it. I have attached a copy of the database so to give you a better idea as to what I am talking about.

Hi gang, I'm an Access rookie with a problem. I have a table with three columns and I need to create a result field which will "count" the number of occurences of a value in the "CustNum" field. (There are other columns in the table as well so I can't use a "count" function) Please see my simulated results in the "Count" column. I'd like to have a query create this expression. Any help? Thanks! Sorry for the formatting, not sure how to replicate a table in my post.
I hope this makes sense? I have a main form with a button that opens a new form. On the new form I have 5 fields. 1 of those fields is the Employee ID which I have the form getting from the main form (IE the Control Source is =Forms!Search_Employee!Employee_ID )and the other fields are bound to my table for the new form. I am unable to get the Employee ID to show in my table, it is not updating or writing the value to that field. Not sure if there is code or how I should or can get this field to write to my table. Any Ideas or be very appreciated. Thanks anyways guys I igured this one out. I was able to set the dafault value to point ot my main form so that my Control Source could point to my table and it worked.
I am building forms from a large questionnaire and I need to write to 2 tables from one field in the form. How can I do this? The reason I need to do this is because I have over 255 variables so I needed to create 2 tables. I want to write my case number to both files so I will have a link between the 2 files. Thanks.
I am creating a production line database for use on a touch screen (no keyboard or mouse) which has to be really easy to use. At the start of the week i got to the point were i thought i would test what i had done to date and have come across a serious issue.
I thought that the data from the forms i am using to input the data to the main table tblProductionDetails would write into individual records but although new records are created at the appropriate point e.g. when the comand button labelled START on frmDetailsCorrect is clicked the data is not writing to the new record that is created. I thought it would be an easy thing to solve but 20 hours later and much mucking about with DoCmd.Goto's etc i am no further forward. I have attached what i have done in the hope it is something obvious and somebody will be able to point me in the right direction.
The way the db is set up is that frmDayStart needs to be opened the command button clicked and then each form opens once the OK comand button in the top right of each opened form is pressed.
It is still a work in progress so a bit rough and ready but i need to get this fundimental problem sorted before moving on.
Any help appreciated (i am not looking for somebody to do the work on the DB just point me in the right direction or point out what the error might be).
I have a query called VOLTEST that is not bound to the form. VOLTEST sums a field in a table from a subform. When the input is finished in the subform and control goes back to the main form, I want the total from the VOLTEST to show in a field on the form that is not a tab stop. Basically, this is just for reference. I have tried to put =[VOLTEST]![SumOftest_value] in the control source of the field on the form but I keep getting "Name?" as the result instead of the sum total. I can run the query in the gotfocus of the first field in the tab order after the subform and I get the correct result in a datasheet view. So, I know the query is working correctly. I just need it to show the result in field on the form.
Can anyone tell me what's wrong with the below statement ? I'm trying to pull the contents from a text box in a form. The text box is supposed write the contents to a field (memo data type) in a table. Thanks ! ! !
Hi Guys, I don't know Access very well but I know enough to generate a 2 dimensional database. The problem I have is that I have been asked to look at a travel agents database to create some additional letters. The problem is that they use a form which has an underlying data table called customers. When they create a record in the form all fields in the customers table are filled in except those on the form which derive their data by calculating two or more fields i.e Date Due is [Date of Travel]-70 (days), Balance Owing is [Cost]-[Deposit]. None of these derived fields fill in their corresponding fields in the customers data sheet.
I would welcome any ideas please. Thanks in anticipation
I need to create a table with names of controls on my forms.
I'll use that table to apply user rules.
Any solution to write the table automatically using VBA code ?
I know how to populate a combobox...
DoCmd.OpenForm YourFormName, acNormal, , , , acHidden Dim c As Control For Each c In YourFormName.Controls [Control-Name].RowSource = [Control-Name].RowSource & c.Name & ";" Next c
I'm trying to write code which writes text into text boxes on a form depending of certain content of other text boxes. The names of the text boxes are all very similar
F.i. R1, R2, R3 ...... R12 if the content of these boxes are empty then the content of the corresponding text boxes VR1, IR1, VR2, IR2, VR3, IR3.......VR12, IR12 should also be empty.
In fact I am trying to write something like this
DO UNTIL i=12 if me.R(i).value = "" then me.VR(i).value = "" me.IR(i).value = "" endif LOOP
But this isn't working. The solution below works but isn't a very nice one, writing 12 times the same code
if me.R1.value = "" then me.VR1.value = "" me.IR1.value = "" endif
if me.R2.value = "" then me.VR2.value = "" me.IR2.value = "" endif
I some code that is reading the first 32 lines of a text file and paste the results into 1 text box on individual lines. I would like each line to go into an individual text box.
I have 32 text boxes named txt_1, txt_2, txt_3 I have a variable named ThisLine holding the line of the text file. I have a variable named textBoxName holding the name of the control.
Need to putting these together to write the line to a text box .
Code: Sub ReadFile() Me.txt_newData = "" Me.txt_OrigData = "" 'again, we need this strange thing to exist so that ... Dim fso As New FileSystemObject
I HAVE A DATABASE WHERE THERE ARE CERTAIN FIELDS THAT NEED TO BE SUMMED UP. I HAVE BUILT A UNBOUND TEXT BOXES WITH THE EXPRESSION BUILDER TO SUM THE FIELDS IM WANTING.
THIS IS FINE HOWEVER WHEN THE RESULTS ARE SUMMED ALL MY RECORDS ARE BEING SUMMED TOGETHER. WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO IS TO SUM WHATS ON THE FORM. SO IN A TEXT BOX WHERE THERE IS A NUMBER 2 AND IN ANOTHER TEXT BOX THERES A 3 THEN IN THE SUM IT SHOULD EQUAL 5.
DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO GET AROUND THIS RATHER THAN IT SUMMING THE TOTALS FOR ALL MY RECORDS?
THE CURRENT EXPRESSION IM USING FOR MY UNBOUND TEXT BOX IS
Hi I have a Text box that stores a date of when a problem or query is received on to a customer account, when resolved the date it is resolved is inputted in the next text box as a resolved date. My third Text box then needs to display Yes or No depending if it took less than 28 days to resolve.
Ive used a Text box and DateDiff expression to work out the ammount of days in the control source, Called query dauration then a macro to test if its less than 28 days to display the yes or no. But this is not working days Mon - Fri. Has any one any ideas?
Created a form that requires daily work flow info to be entered. Tested the form accepting random typos like "%, # ! etc... Worked just fine. In production received the following long error:"The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Expression may not result in the name of macro, user defined function or event procedure".
I have three fields on the form. First one is Combo box - "Contact person", Second - "Code" is Text field, Third - "Department" is the text field. Corresponding to this I have a table "Department "with fields Contact person, Code, Department.
I want that when I select the Name from the combo box, corresponding records like Code and Department should appear in the respective text box.
I'm not sure this can be done,but here goes it, I have 5 [plants] A, B, C, D & E. If one plant recieved [A] plant reject [Reject] then I need a response from plants B, C, D & E. If plant [B] receives a reject then I need a response from plant A, C, D and E. How would I show what other plants havent' responded>
How would I create a query for this? any idea's would be greatly appreciated
I have a procedure which I undertake and wonder whether it can be automated in any way.
I have a field on a form for Purchases (frmPurchases) for a Purchase Order number. To get the order, I click on a command (cmdpo) which opens another form and clicking a command on this form (cmdgetpono) produces a unique Purchase Order number. I then manually copy the number given and paste it into the field on frmPurchases (PONo).
I have not used Macros before but cannot see that there are the options to achieve this. If someone could suggest the ones I should uses fro the list it would be appreciates.
Alternatively, is there another way of looking at this?
This was to dumb to write in the title. But when I am trying to write a code, the drop down, only stays down for a few seconds. Does that mean I am doing something wrong. I am trying to learn to write, but I am about sharp as marble, when it comes to writing.
Further to an earlier post asking how to check if forms were open ...
I have a form EditCompanyForm which pops up to let people edit the details of a company. The form can be opened from one of three forms.
When the EditCompanyForm is closed I want to update the form that opened it.
So I have this rather ungainly bit of code. __________________________________________________ ___________ Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer) Dim oAccessObject As AccessObject Dim FormName As String FormName = "CompaniesForm" Set oAccessObject = CurrentProject.AllForms(FormName) If oAccessObject.IsLoaded Then Form_CompaniesForm.Requery End If
Dim oAccessObject1 As AccessObject Dim FormName1 As String FormName1 = "CompaniesCallForm" Set oAccessObject1 = CurrentProject.AllForms(FormName1) If oAccessObject1.IsLoaded Then Form_CompaniesCallForm.Requery End If
Dim oAccessObject2 As AccessObject Dim FormName2 As String FormName2 = "CallListForm" Set oAccessObject2 = CurrentProject.AllForms(FormName2) If oAccessObject2.IsLoaded Then Form_CallListForm.Requery End If End Sub __________________________________________________ _
Do I need 3 separate AccessObjects?
Should I be using ... Set oAccessOjbect = nothing ... at the end?
I am fairly new to msaccess programming and am trying to build a stock control system for my business.
I am happy with everything I have done so far but there is one thing I cannot figure out.
I have set up so that the user can click a button and remove the relevant number from the stock level. The buttons are for removing 1, 5, 10 or 20 (there are reasons for these numbers). However I would also like the button to take information from the form (which is referenced to a query) and write that information, along with an autogenerated id number and the current date/time to another table. This is for our record keeping, so that we can record what is selling well etc and when the last one was sold.
How do I do this?
I have gone through the help files and my books, but I think the problem is I don't know where to start looking.
I also want to add a button that will add items to an order table. Again by taking the information from the form and writing it to another table. With this one a message will appear asking for the quantity to be entered. It will also check the order table to see if the item is already there and advise if it is.
So I'm trying to get the hang of having a Microsoft Access db on an ASP page. I'm just testing the water right now to see how to do simple stuff (selects and updates). Tomorrow I'm going to do loops. Exciting.
Anyways, the tester I have right now is doing a basic update, then select and then print the results. I'm getting the following error:
"Item cannot be found in the collection corresponding to the requested name or ordinal."
It didn't give me this error when the field name was only one word. But because this particular field has spaces in it (and I can't do anything about that sadly), it throws this error. I tried offsetting it with the [ ] but that doesn't do it like it does for the SQL command. I searched the web and didn't really find anything of any help.
The line is:
Response.Write "NAME:" & rs("[Full Name (Name Field)]") & "<BR>"
Without the brackets it gives an exception error message.
I have a database (I've attached it for you). I'd like to set it up so that in the "incentive scheme" form when the field [term 1 allow] is changed and is more than 0 then have the form "permissible explanation" appear with that record so the user can add an explanation, they should not be allowed to leave it empty if the [term 1 allow] is still >0 and then save and return to the "incentive scheme" form for further input.
I want to count the number of occurences in a datatable when loading a form. BUT i want only to count if it is equal to a value on a text box on this same form.
what i made:
1-created a unbound textbox 2-inserted on "control Source" this expression =DCount("*";"T_Pendentes";"[disponente.Procurement]= " & [me].[disponenteProcurement].[Value] & "")
where * is to count all, T_Pendentes is the table, and de expression is the criteria.
I have three fields on the form. First one is Combo box - "Contact person", Second - "Code" is Text field, Third - "Department" is the text field. Corresponding to this I have a table "Department "with fields Contact person, Code, Department.
I want that when I select the Name from the combo box, corresponding records like Code and Department should appear in the respective text box.
