How To Autofill Company Info In Employee Form By Pressing Button

Oct 6, 2005

Hi there,

I am stuck for over a week now, and tried just about everything I am capable off ...

I have two forms: COMP (where I fill in fields for Company Table) and PERS (where I fill in fields for Person Table).
On the COMP-Form I have a button, named: 'Add Person/Employee to Current Company'.

The two tables (Company and Person) are linked by PK - FK (PK_CompanyID & FK_EmployedAtID).

I can't get it to work properly.
The PERS-form must be filled with the company info I filled in the form COMP, after I press the button.
But the PERS-form also must be filled out normally (not via COMP, but seperately), choosing the company in the comboboxfield 'Company Name' on the PERS-form. Do you stick with me?

So I want to start the PERS-form with the filled in company Info by pressing the button.
And I want to be able to start the Form seperately (which I can off course) and choose the company myself , by selecting the right company in the combobox.

I have a attachment sent with this.

Can someone look at this for me, and explain what I am doing wrong.

I tried to do it with a autofill macro, and with some code ...

I just don't seem to get it right.

Thanx in advance for all the help,

Quinten

Prompt For Password And Username Each Time While Pressing Cmd Button

Jan 23, 2007

Being dealing with my database and having quite some trouble with it. Is it possible to track down what the users did, during the time they login into, database, is it possible to prompt users for password and username when they buttons for like, delete cmd, or update command.

Just a breif idea on what im trying to do.(hopefully it won't confused you all)
Im trying to created a 2 main username. One is for admin group and another is for users group. Then users can login in to database, however whenever the users update or delete entries in the database, the user will prompt for their username and password (not the users group login ). Is it possible to build a table to store in the username and password for the prompting purposes one.

Sorry for confusing question. Actually im trying to think of another way, but for now this complicated event all i have think of. Feel free to voice your suggestion here. Thanks alot. TQ

Prevent Default Command Button When Pressing Enter

Nov 7, 2005

I have a form which contains several controls and a listbox. I have set the Default setting to yes for a command button that returns the results of the search, so when i click the Enter key on any control (with the exception of other command buttons), the result is returned.

Question: I want to prevent the Default command button from activating when pressing Enter from the listbox.

I thought of using the KeyDown event with this code
If KeyCode = vbKeyReturn Then
'do something
End If
but i can't get it to disregard the default

Suggestions?

Auto Email By Pressing Button In Access 2007

Jun 29, 2012

So I have created this database for a lessons learnt system. Is it possible in Access 2007 to create a button that if pressed automatically sends an email out to someone? So my main form in the database is a split form which contains a search filter, which works well and also contains a button called add new lesson. This button is linked into another form and when pressed brings up this new form. In this form it has a save and close button. What I actually would like is when the form is updated and this save and close button is pressed, an email is sent to a "project head" who has to confirms the information before the data is saved into the database. Is this actually possible?

Forms :: Cancel On Load Event When Pressing Command Button

Aug 21, 2013

I have a form (Pipeline) with an on load event that automatically directs the user to a new empty record.

Code:

Private Sub Form_Load()
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
End Sub

Now my problem is that I am trying to design a 'search form' that will allow the user to look up a specific record in the main form by pressing a command button. Creating the search form is easy enough. I cannot figure out how to override the on load event in the main form when pressing the command button.

As it is right now, the button opens the form and then go directly to a new record.

Forms :: Button To Autofill A Field In All Records

Oct 21, 2014

I know all of the main features and can even do a bit with macros and VBA. I need creating a button to auto-fill a field in all the records in a table.

I have a database centered around a table called tblCand; each record contains a date field called intDate. On the main form, initDash, when the user hits a certain button, a window pops up (either a message box or perhaps a separate form) that asks the user to type in a date, which would be stored as intDateDB. When the user hits OK, I want the value of intDateDB to replace the value of intDate in all the records in tblCand.

I'm not sure whether this is called auto-filling or auto-populating...

Add Employee Form

Apr 29, 2007

I have an Employees table. I have a form to Add Employee and a form to Remove Employee. Remove Employee works great. It's a drop down box, they select the employee and click on remove. With Add Employee, I have a textbox where they enter the name and a button to add that employee to the database. I setup a VBA script to take the value in the textbox labled "empname" and insert it into the Employees table when the button is clicked through the onClick event.

Is there an easy way to do this? I need the UI to be simple. I know you can bound the textbox to the employee name, but then when they open up the form it will show all the records and they have to click the new record button to add someone. I know this question was asked very recently, but it wasn't answered very well.

I have the db attached. It's in Access 2003 format. The macro in there is the VBA script that I wrote, so don't worry, it's not harmful. I'm very good with SQL, and I would've chosen to use ASP for the user interface, but the people that need this don't want to run any servers (IIS). They just need a file they can double click on and work from there.

Thanks

Autofill Fields In Form

Feb 18, 2007

Hi,

I have a form that has a field called scope of work which is a combo box that you have 3 options to select from.

I have set up a table called scope of work which has other fields
ie: Scope of work, Est Man Hours, Normal Rate, Overtime Rate and Est Due Date.

The combo box works fine selecting the scope of work but I want the fields on the form to automatically fill in the other information. Say they select option 1 in the scope of work based on this option it will fill in 40hrs at $150 per hour normal rate and $180 per hour overtime rate and this will take 4 weeks to complete. Based on the start date field it will also calculate 4 weeks from now for the completion date.

I have tried everything from queries using SQL statements, joining tables one to many etc.. and for some reason I cannot seem to get it to work for me and I've spent hours searching around for a solution..

If anyone has any ideas it would be greatly greatly greatly appreciated!!

Thanks a Bunch

I have a table with customers details(Address Etc) but there is too many for me to use a combo or list box so i would like to use a text box.
Here lies my problem.
What i need is to be able to enter into a text box on form1 the first few letters of the customer ID no and this will open a hidden subform that will list the customers with those first few letters.
I then want to be able to select one from the list using the number keys and once i press enter it opens another form(form2) with all the customer information already inserted into the text boxes on form2.

Form/Subform With Autofill In Both

Jul 22, 2005

I am creating an ostensibly simple database, but I need help trying to get it to work. There are three tables.

1.Users – UserID, Dept Code, LName, FName
2.Boxes – BoxNumber, Description, Contents, and many other fields
3.CheckOut (junction table) – UserID, BoxNumber, Description, DateIn, DateOut

I want to create a form that would have the User fields at the top and a subform with the checkout fields.

I need the user fields to autopopulate after filling in the UserID (primary key).

I need the box Description to autopopulate after filling in the BoxNumber (primary key). At the moment, the form thinks that I am trying to ADD new records. There are no new records (boxes) being added. I simply want to use the form to check out and check out boxes.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance.
