How To Organize--By Individual Item Or Classification?
Aug 9, 2006
I am not sure what to search for to find an answer for this, so I'm posting a new thread.
I would like to make a data-entry form for a couple of my tables. I have already done this with some other tables I have, and it has worked great. These tables are different, however, so I'm not sure how to do it.
I have two tables that list our individual subscriptions to journals/magazines/etc. I have a Membership field, where I can indicate which membership, if any, the individual subscription is a part of.
When I pay invoices for one of the tables, it would be nice if I could have a form that listed all of the titles for a particular membership, so I can update price information all at once. (There's often a membership price, plus additional costs for the individual journals.) It would be very convenient if this same table also could display information on titles that are NOT part of the membership.
Is this possible without splitting the table up? Is there a select query that I can set up and run the form off of that?
I just can't think of any way to set this up so that it actually works. Is there a function that will do this that I just don't know about?
ETA: I can do something similar to what I want in a report, where it will sort the records by a particular field--but I don't know how to set that up in a form, and to make it show multiple records on one page of the form.
Thanks,
Siena

I have a database where I record grades for my students. I would like to create a macro so that every time I record a grade as an "F", the student will receive an email that will contain an attachment of their scores. A lot of the information I want to include in this email is in several different tables. So to make it easier, I have created a query that lists the following:
Students name (SName)
Student's email (SEmail)
ID# of the form I use to record their grades (ID)
ID# of the studen'ts work (WorkID)
Date of their work (CreatedDate)
Date I graded their work (AuditDate)
Grade="F" (Accuracy)
How can I create something that will automate emailing of this information--to the individual student with only their information? I am using Access 2010. If I can't automatically send the emails, I would like to create a button in my audit screen that will send a report containing that student's information to them.

I am trying to setup a database to store the information for a database of clothing.
There will be mens and womens shirts, jackets and accessories.
Right now I have a Product Table.
Product
-------
ProductID
ProductName(Shirt/Jackets/Accessories)
A shirt table
Shirt
-----
Shirt_ID
ProductID
Title
Description
Photo
Price
Fabric
I'll do something similar for jackets.
My problem I run into is with the sizes and colors. Each shirt has 4 or 5 sizes and about the same for colors. There is about 20 or 30 different colors that the shirts will pull from. About 10 different sizes. How should I organize this? What I would like to do is when I design the ASP.NET site for this I want to have the sizes and colors in a dropdown list for the user to select. I know how to set that up, I just don't know how to make a relationship between the shirt and the size or the shirt and the color so the right sizes and right colors show up for the shirt the user selected.

I have a form with 2 listboxes: 1 to show the name of the products having a code "v" (recordsource query), 1 to show the name of the products having a code "a".
2 arrowed buttons (left-right) would make a product "jump" from one to the other.
The way I wanted to do this is, when the appropriate button is clicked, the actual product code is changed, then the listboxes refreshed, so that it looks that the product jumped listboxes (when the code changes and the listboxes refreshed/requeried, it will disappear in one and appear in the other, because of the recordsource queries).
I want to do it this way, because it is imperative that the code gets changed!
But how to get the record of the selected product "out" of the listbox. When I select a product and check e.g. the ".value" of the listbox, it is "null"!?
So how to "get" the record corresponding with the selected item in a listbox in VBA?

I have a form that simply lists the items:
DEPARTMENT_NBR and DEPARTMENT_NAME
In the table: DEPARTMENT_TBL
When I edit the field DEPARTMENT_NBR and it is in error (must be between 01 and 99) I want to put out a message in a MSGBOX and SetFocus back on the DEPARTMENT_NBR.
I coded the MSGBOX with vbokonly and then DEPARTMENT_NBR.SetFocus, but after the message displays and enter is hit for the ok the cursor jumps to the DEPARTMENT_NAME on the current line. Is there a way to get the SetFocus to work properly on repeating items like this? I can never seem to get them to perform the same as they do on non-repeating items.
Thanks for your help.
HERE'S THE EXACT CODE:
If IsNumeric(DEPARTMENT_NBR) = False Then
If DEPARTMENT_NBR <> "00" Then
MsgBox "DEPARTMENT NUMBER must between 01 and 99.", vbOKOnly
DEPARTMENT_NBR.SetFocus
GoTo DEPARTMENT_NBR_EXIT (exits the paragraph skipping other checks)
End If
End If
Also, is there a way to look at a specific item in a list like that? IE. I want to reference the 3rd row's DEPARTMENT_NBR. Thanks.

Hey all.
I'm trying to get a combo box to populate the box next to it.
Basically pick a project number in the 1st box and have the project name show up in the second box.
I have it working, but the problem is that when it puts in the name of the project, it fills the whole column with that name, and not just the one box.
Here is what it's doing:
http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/2659/dbhm4.jpg
Here is the code im using.
Private Sub ProjectNumber_AfterUpdate()
On Error Resume Next
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSQL As String
ProjectNumber.SetFocus
If ProjectNumber.Value > 0 Then
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM ProjectList WHERE ID = " & ProjectNumber.Value
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
If Not rs.BOF Then
Me.ProjectName = rs("ProjectName")
End If
rs.Close
Set rs = Nothing
db.Close
Set db = Nothing
End If
End Sub
Let me know what I can do.
Thanks!!

Okay, my first problem is solved...Access now stops me from entering a phone number that is already entered...so I'm a happy camper...thanks again to those who helped :)
now I have my next problem, I have 8 columns, each column has phone numbers and I've separated them into what the first digit of the phone number starts with...so columns 2 to 9...
now I'd like to sort each individual column so that it puts the phone numbers in numerical order...the only option I find for sort sorts all 9 columns as if they were one column and then everything is out of whack and mixed together...sorting like that works fine in excel...what's the trick to get Access to do the same thing?? Thanks a bunch :) Rosey :confused:

Hi everyone.
I have a pretty basic database with about 8 tables linked together.
The database is going to be used for keeping an electronic record of claims for upto 5000 people.
I have been asked though to have box on the menu screen which shows both the number of claims and the number of batches (where the claims are put)
All i require really is a way to count each individual number in a coloumn
EG
abc123
abc123
abc124
abc125
number of batches 3
any ideas?

I have a continuous form based on a query. I would like to have a button or control that performs some command on only one certain record. In other words, the user sees the record he wants, clicks a button and it changes the value or changes the color. When I add a button to the form, it appears next to each record and performs the same command to each record. I have tried different controls, but get similar results with each one. Even a single form seems to do the same thing, but on different pages.
Am I missing something? Or maybe I am not following the concept of the form.

I'm sure this is here somewhere but I just can't find it.
I have a form where a selection of suppliers are selected, I then want to email each supplier a report attachment - headed up with their particular details - for them to complete and return.
I can use the SendObject to send one email with all reports attached, how do I split it up? Can I split it up?

Man I thought this would be simple, but it quite clearly isn't!
I have a .csv file that contains around 250 email addresses. I simply want to import these into an Access table, each email creating a new record!
NO using the import function only seems to allow you to import data as long as each separate piece of data is on field in a record! I understand whent this might be the case, but why the hell can I not import it so each piece of data is a separate record in the table!!!!!!!!!!!
Please note I understand some sort of complex query may do it, but I am not that experienced with that yet and so don't know how it's done!
Please can anyone offer a simple solution? From where I am sitting, there does not appear to be one!!!!
Thanks.

Hi all - new here - hope to get some help :)
Situation: I have a bunch of individual databases (approx 70) - each holding one table called "Meter" with some GPS reads and additional information about the GPS point.
Am looking for solution to create one big database file holding all GPS reads.
One idea i have is linking all tables into a new database and run a create table query and then an append query.
Is there a way to somehow have the one append query run automatically on all existing linked tables (remember approx 70 tables so i really want to avoid of creating 70 append queries ;) )
To make it more complicated: data sets in the original individual databases could be modified or new data could be added. From what I know linked tables are updated but is there a way of keeping the my big, newly created (appended) database up2date automatically as well?
Hope it all makes sense?
Thanks a lot in advance
Regards from Ireland

My database records order details for analysis. I have created a form to monitor individual trends in orders placed by my customers. As we supply bespoke items each customer has a list of products which they alone purchase, i.e we do not supply stock items, each item is specifically for one customer (they can then buy the items on a regular basis). The products are assigned to a customer in the products table.
The Analysis form I have created displays the customers name and two graphs. The first graph shows total sales each month, this graph updates as I navigate through the records (i.e. a different graph is loaded for each customer). The form also contains another graph, this is where the problem lies! This graph shows orders of the individual products, controlled by a drop down list containing all the products we supply. I need to limit this list to only show those products relevant to the current customer select on the form. (The products are assigned to a customer in my products table). Currently I achieve this by using a query which when the form is opened asks me to enter a customer ID, the drop down list is then limited to the products supplied to that customer.
What I would like is for the drop down list to update as I navigate through the records. i.e. when customer A is displayed show all the products assigned to customer A, when customer B is displayed show all the products assigned to customer B.
I’ve attached a snapshot of the form to help explain what I mean.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hello,
I would like to hide some of the tabs of my tab control on load, and make
them visible only later via another event.
How do I hide individual tabs vs. the entire tab control?
Thank you.

Hi
I want to set the On Click Event of a button to unlock the current control a user is on. I know the code to set the property of a named control, but I don't want a button for every control I want to unlock. Is there a 'Me' option for controls?

Hi--I have a contact database, and would like to be able to have a command button on the form for each contact to print one individual mailing label for that particular contact, preferably in a user-specified row/column on a page of Avery 6245 labels. Am realizing that this is a major hassle in Access but would like to do it within Access (why is it so easy to print huge lists of labels but so hard to print just one??). Any help would be appreciated. I'm pretty good at writing queries and reports in Access but a rank newbie at the underlying SQL and VBA so need major handholding if that's involved (and I know it is ). Thanks.

i am making a contacts database. I have a table to hold the names and addresses of 700 people. I have another table holding the names of the mailing groups those 700 people can be in. One person can be in multiple mailing groups.
i made another table, and i typed in all the people and the multipe groups they were in. For example, a there would be seven records for a person if they belonged to seven groups
then i made a query relating that table to the addresses table. I want to be able to open forms to show an individual group, and cycle through the people in that group only.
i can do this, but access wont let me edit any of the records.
is there somthing wrong with my relationships? how do i tell accesss to allow records be in multiple groups?

I have a button on a report that I want to use to confirm if the contents of a field were prepared or not. Below is the button vba:
Private Sub Command60_Click()
'retrieve the records
Static Count As Integer
Count = Count + 1
'
Select Case Count
[Code] ....
The problem with this is that it changes the text and background for every button in the report. I want the button to change its text etc for individual records in the report. and not all at one time. In other words I want each record to have a button, and each button associated with each record.

I wish to make an Access DB that will work as a HUB for a few different people in our company to work off of as a means of putting analytical results in tables where a SampleID is given to each sample and is unique. I want to know if there is a way to group any given number of SampleID records together into a 'ProjectGrp' and produce something along the lines of a work order form so the other people in the company can look at a ProjectGrp, see what SampleIDs are part of that group, and then fill in the data for each SampleID.

what i want to do is lock each individual record created by each user from the other 3 users after they have been saved ( I am not referring to record locking/table locking while updating/creating ). ie They can all read each others created records BUT only update/modify their own created records. They all have individual passwords to log in.
