Viewing All Records

Apr 18, 2006

Hi, can anyone please help me.
I've just set up a form with 2 pages which I can add data into, but for some reason, I can't view all records.
I've tried using the switchboard to add buttons to both add records and view (but they both only add), and i've also set up my own button with the instruction to view all records, but it just won't work.
On the first page the data source is tbl_CompanyInfo, and on the second page, the data source is a subform with the data source tbl_Contacts. The subform will link contacts to the company info via the CompanyID field. I hope that makes sense.
Can anyone please tell me how I can view all of the data via the form.
Thanks very much

Viewing Only Those Data With Value

Sep 29, 2006

I'm wondering how can I view only those query data with value in certain fields.

For example in a record of students with check marks, view only those students with check marks and leaving those having no check mark out.

I know it has something to do with the criteria but not sure what. I've already search the MS Access Help as well as this forum and have not found anything.

Thanks in advance.

Subform Viewing

Jul 21, 2006

I am working creating a data entry form. I am using the data entry option in the form properties to do this. However, when I do this, my subforms do not display any information.

Ideally, I would like them to display information when the field linked to the subform is entered on the main form. Is there an option for this ?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Viewing HTML In A Form

Apr 14, 2006

I've used Access 2003 to create a database which contains a table linked directly to the "Orders" table on my mysql server. This table holds all of the customer orders placed on our website. I next created a form in access to give me a nice justified view of the orders.

My Problem? The field on the mysql server that holds the line item details for each order is a "Memo" field, and all of the text is formatted in html it appears. When viewed on the form, I see the all of the raw code, and not the nicely formatted text. If i highlight a section of the code from the form, and paste it in a Html editor (Frontpage for example), I see the line items nicely formatted as intended.

Is there a way to get this memo field to display the formatted html text instead?

My access skills are pretty limited, so detailed steps would be appreciated.

Size Of Viewing Window?

Mar 4, 2007

Hi All,

users can opening a file (either .doc, exe or .pdf) with additional data to the record they're looking at by clicking on a icon on a form. The icon has code behind it that opens the document (Application.FollowHyperlink NameDocTo Open). That opens the doc OK, no problem, but what is a problem is that the window for this document is exactly the same size as the window of the access form from which the second doc is opened.

The size of the access window is defined. I'd like to get the word or excel or pdf to be maximized. The weird thing is that I use the same code in another database and there the 'secondary doc' opens in a new window and of large enough size. How can the same code generate 2 outcomes? And how can I fix the issue described?

Thanks guys.

Record Viewing Within Tables

Apr 29, 2008

I was wondering if there is some setting that can be set such that certain records within a table are not visible when the table is opened, or a form is accessing its records.

It seems from time to time, some records seem to 'disappear' from view?!?

Other than a filter...

Does anyone know how this is possible, and what can be set or specified in order for this to be happening?

Thank you for any enlightenment...

Viewing Contents Of Two Tables

Aug 27, 2007

Greetings to All,

I have one table (tblLink) that resides on an SQL Server quite a distance from me. I have another table (tblLink_r) that resides in a local .mdb file. The tables are identical except for the data they contain and where they are located. Only one index (LinkIdx=autonumber) exists. I am making sure there are no duplicate indicies in the LinkIdx fields because I started the LinkIdx field in tblLink_r at 2100000000.

When I open tblLink (remote), I can scroll to the end of the 21,000 records relatively quickly - read: little latency. Queries performed on this table similarly show little latency.

When I open tblLink_r, I also have little latency. This table has 100 records.

I need a single object which contains the contents of tblLink and tblLink_r. I have tried a UNION ALL, but this query takes upwards of 4 minutes to complete which I can't understand since either of the constituent tables only take ~.5 seconds to call up.

I am hoping someone can provide a way to speed up the UNION ALL query or provide an alternate means to combine the contents of these tables.

Viewing Listboxes In A Report

Nov 19, 2005

Good Morning all,

On a Form I have a series of Listboxes, each drills down to a final piece of information. The Listboxes store a number_id which displays along with other information In this case the number_id is associated to a TEXT description. When I send the Listbox info to the Report it displays the info but the text doesn't wrap and it gets cut off. There is no "can grow" option on a list box.

So I need to create a Text Box in the Report but when I refrence the listbox in the control source only the number_id shows up. I need to see the associated text (field).

Any help would be great!

Thanks,

Phil "bones"

Linking Records & Viewing

Jan 18, 2006

Before I spend an age trying to get this to work I thought I'd consult some experts.

I have a main data table for recording all possible insurance claims against a company. What I want to do is create say 2 incidents but link them in some way. i.e. One of our drivers had a car accident (1 claim against our motor policy), but then the driver of the other car sues us(1 claim against our public liability).

I can create 2 seperate records and maybe have a field to highlight parent/child reference numbers, but is there anyway I could allow the user to click a button and see the related records simultaneously?

Cheers

Viewing Combo Box Properties

Nov 17, 2006

I have a lookup colum in my datasheet. Is there any way that i can change the properties so that I can view both the first name and the last name in the same box once it is chosen. Currently in design view I have a column for first name and a column for the last name. When I choose a name from the lookup column, all it shows is the last name... i would like for it to show both the lastname, firstname.

please advise... thanks

Probelms With Datasheet Viewing

Dec 2, 2006

HeyI made a form which displays formulas such as [unitprice]*[quantity]. These forumulas are working perfectly when I display the form in 'form view'. However, when I open the form in 'datasheet view' it displays '#error' in the same field. I think the problem has something to do with me attaching a subform to the form. As when ever I click on the '+' to display the subform in datasheet mode, the '#error' becomes into a correct value.Why is this so?I would appreciate the help.Thanks

Viewing Forms And Reports

Sep 17, 2004

I have a report that will not preview as full screen unless I hit the button in the right corner. Is there a way to default it to large every time?

Along the same line, I have a form that opens with the menu just fine but when I return to it after running the report, it comes back full screen instead of the size it should.

I am sure these are easier ones for some of you but I can't seem to solve it.

Updating A Listbox According To The Record You're Viewing

Apr 30, 2005

Hi

I have a database containing 3 tables (for now):
Customers
Orders
Catagories

Now i also have a form with customer information.
In that form is a listbox with a query statement, so that should display wich orders are placed by that customer.

SELECT Orders.[Order-ID], Orders.Description, Orders.Date, Orders.Category FROM Orders WHERE Customer=[Customer-ID];


Now this works for the first costumer record being displayed.
However when i view the next costumer, the listbox still displays the order information from the first customer.

How can i get the listbox to update itself when a diffirent record is viewed?

Thanks in advance

Database Onto The Internet For Public Viewing

May 1, 2005

Hi all,
I have done a multi user database for a private company (and thanks to all those that helped me out) but now I need to do another database to put onto the Internet so the general public can view it and order the products. Obviously some of the database needs to be private (so I can update records) but some needs to be viewed over the Internet. I would like the general public to be able to view the products over a web page, not download a program to view the database.

I have made the database already so I can pull up a web page (from within access) and order the products - all I need to know is how to do this over the Internet?

I don't expect anyone to hold my hand through this, I just ask if anyone has a link to a walkthrough so I can do this?

Regards, James

PS Have another question -
I have 17, 500 records and I wish to add a new Field, how can I change the values of the Field without going thorugh them one by one? e.g If the Record has 'Rarity = U' then I want the 'price' (which is the new field) to equal 1.

Viewing A New Form With More Details Of A Record

Nov 27, 2006

I have got a form with summarised data (of records) on view for people to look at. (this is a continuous form). For each record I would like to have a button that displayed another form with more details on it. So by pressing the button opposite a particular record it would take the Id value of the record and open another form (with more details) at that particular record.

I would be very interested in seeing this done with a macro if possible but beggers can't be choosers!
