Create Form From Wizard
Jan 1, 2006During the create form from wizard process, there is a screen which gives the option of applying a style. Can this be bypassed or can a 'none' option be added.I'm new to access, so any suggestions are welcome. I think creating a form in design view will build with no syle, but how do you add fields?thanks

Apr 25, 2005For my assignment at college, i'm making a database about an IT company. I've created all the tables and the relationships between them at college, and I sent it home so I could work on tonight. When I go through the wizard, I can select the table but there are no fields for me to choose from no matter which table I choose. I have added all the data into each table.
I am using access 2003, however the text above the window with the tables/forms/queries selections says 'Access 2000 format.
The form creation worked at college but I have no idea why it is not working at home. Please help, I'm running out of time lol :confused:

Queries :: Wizard To Create A Find Duplicates Query
May 29, 2014I used the wizard to create a find duplicates query. I know for a fact that 15 records are duplicates. I'm getting over 300 records. When I dumped the data into Excel and did a pivot table to count the number of records by account number only 15 had a total count of 2. All others only had 1. Why are the ones with no duplicates showing? I just want to see the 15.

Choose Table In Parameter Query
Oct 23, 2005Hi
I would like to set up a query that uses two tables. One of the tables, the 'main table', wil be used every time the query is run. Each time a new record is created in the main table a 'new table' is created containing a subset of data - the name of this table uses a ref ID from the main table. I would like to be able to select which 'new table' to use in the query as part of a parameter query.
eg. Main table record 1 has a field JID of J0001 and a corresponding 'new table' titled J0001. record 2 in main table has JID J0002 and creates a 'new table' J0002 etc
so I would like to set the query up such that when a record is chosen in 'main table' the query knows the name of the 'new table' corresponds to the JID of the record in 'main table' ....
Have seen the same question asked but no answer - is this possible ?
any pointers appreciated..
How To Choose The 10 Latests Entries In A Table (from A Form)
Aug 10, 2007I'll start by saying that I'm not sure which sub-forum to choose, as my question(s) covers several areas, so I have tried with this one first.
I'm currently making a database, which among other things contains a 'Port of Call list' table. I have a form, where I can add data to this table, meaning, that whenever a vessel has left its port, user can update following: Port name, security level, arrival date and departure date.
What I need is two things (it might be more or less the same):
1. When user click a "Generate" button on a form, the 10 latest port calls from the table, should be shown. I'm not sure what kind of control is the best to should the list on the form. Code is also needed.
2. I would also need to be able to print the list. It should be part of a report. Again which controls/which code to be used is needed.
I hope that someone are able to assist, as I have no clue what to do.
Thanks.

Map Table Wizard??

I want to manipulate a few tables and make them into one table, but I don't want all of their fields. I heard that I could do it with "map table wizard" from the top of the menu. Where can I find it? Or, can anyone recommend me what I should do better?

Lookup Wizard Or Separate Table
Jun 8, 2005I've been doing a lot of research and reading on databases and normalization and things of that sort because I need to create database from scratch. I've been maintaining a db that someone else made, but it turns out I will have to recreat the whole thing because it's not useful anymore and the users need a more user friendly db. I have a couple of days some are:
tblTO
------
TONumber
Contract
Product Directorate <- combo box 20 items
Document Type <- combo box 15 items
TOManager <- combo box 10 items
tblTOItem
----------
Product <- combo box 13 items
JobNo
BasicDate
ChangeDate
ChangeLevel
TotalBillablePgs
TotalTextPgs
TotalArtPgs
Standard <- combo box 22 items
TemplateVersion <- combo box 20 items
SourceFormat <- combo box 15 items
SourceLocation <- combo box 10 items
The ones I have the arrows for will be a combo box on my form.
My question is should I make each of these field a table of its own?
For instance make the Product field a table and list all the 13 products there?
Or keep the Product field in the tblTOItems and in design view of tblTOItems use the Lookup Wizard and type in my values there to make a lookup column.
I have seen it done both ways, and I was just wondering which way is more efficient.
Tables :: Lookup Wizard In Table Design
Aug 28, 2013I've designed a database at work to collate information about locations around the world that are contaminated by conflict and military activities. I'm struggling with the use of the lookup wizard to populate some fields in one table from another table.The database is ultimately meant to be used to identify contaminated sites in various countries and also to be a source of data for an online interactive map. As such, it needs to hold a fair amount of information. I figured that it would be normal that some fields and tables would be connected to one another. So, for example:
Country table is looked up by the conflict table to provide the names of countries participating in a conflict. To do so I used the lookup wizard. Similarly, the Site information table is looked up by the Site contamination event table to provide the names of contaminated sites. The Site contamination event table. Then the Site assessment table looks up the Site contamination event table to provide the name of contaminated sites. The relationship between these three table is intended so that at any given site multiple instances of contamination and their subsequent assessment can be recorded. This is where I started noticing problems. When I tried to input some fields into the Site assessment table, specifically the 'Site name', it would only display the primary and foreign keys in the drop down menu but not the 'Site name'.
- Have I messed up by relying on the lookup wizard in my table design? This seems to be the consensus in this and most forums (I checked another thread in the 'Tables' forum here). That said, I've seen some people making a distinction between using 'Lookup tables' and 'Lookup fields within a table', but given my relative newbyness I'm struggling to see the difference!
- If the answer is yes then what approach should I take to achieve the same aim (having multiple tables that feed information to one another). Initial research seems to suggest putting lookup/combo boxes in my forms. I'm dabbling with that at the minute but so far the results haven't been as desired.
I've attached a zip file with a screenshot of my relationships diagram to give an extra idea. Note that the relationship between the 'Site assessment' table and 'Site contamination event' table isn't showing up as I removed while trying to troubleshoot, but it is supposed to be one-to-many from 'Site contamination event' to 'Site assessment'.

Jul 14, 2015I am trying to create a lookup wizard to record the number of people who attend a regular event.

Previously people have been manually adding the names of attendees and of course there have been inconsistencies in the data. I want them to look up the names from the table of registered members. I have been using the lookup wizard, but it is only displaying the first name in a string. I need it to display id, first name, surname and DOB in a table.

View 13 Replies View RelatedAm I Heading For Trouble? I've Never Had So Many One-to-one Before...
Jan 17, 2008I have been asked to redesign a database that tracks a huge number of data points. These are projects and the original table had over 100 fields. I have managed to separate them to related tables in an attempt at normalization. They are:
tbl_workorders (main project info)
tbl_services (services ordered)
tbl_contacts (internal company contacts)
tbl_customers (customer information)
tbl_project_dates (milestones of project)
Now this is different from other databases I've designed because all of the tables need a one-to-one relationship with the main table (tbl_workorders).
Am I heading for trouble with so many tables existing in a one-to-one? Also, The table tbl_workorders has its primary key as an autonumber. I want any new order on this to create matching foreign keys on all the other tables...I assume this should be handled since I have enforced referential integrity with cascade on update/delete for all the other tables.
Thanks for your feedback!
Force ROW Heading In A Crosstab
Dec 7, 2005Being an amateur at Access, I've only recently realized that you can force column headings for crosstab queries, by typing those headings into the properties of the field selected as the column. But can you do the same for ROWS?
My data concerns patients of a specific type and the times of day they show up at our A&E (ER). I've grouped these by hour and now I want to crosstab them by day of week. But if there aren't any between say 3am and 5am, those hours don't show in the query, which is screwing up a pre-formatted report I have.
I've found some assistance on other threads.....

Is there an easy solution? If not, it's not a huge problem and I can "fudge" it once a month, offensive as that must sound to you professional types!
Thanks as always.

Modules & VBA :: Place Heading In First Or Second Row In Word Doc
Sep 30, 2013I have below vba code in a sub that opens word application and generates the data from a table based on criteria provided thru a form.
These lines are smoothly working..
But I need to place some headings in first line or second line of the document and then to start the table information to appear in the doc.
I tried to place my company name below way (see bold lines);
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim I As Integer
Set db = CurrentDb()
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("SELECT * FROM T_CustomerMaster WHERE SALESMANCODE='" & Forms!F_ReportMaster!TxtRepCode & "' order by custcode;")
WordSetup
doc.Tables.Add Range:=doc.Range, numrows:=1, numcolumns:=5
'Trying to place main heading
'doc.Range(1, 0).Text = "fsdafds"
[Code] ....
But the table starting from column 1 and cell 1 till data ends up.
Finally I converted my trial lines to remark as it is not working at all.
