I created a database with a list of companies, with many details in separate tables linking them - shareholders, directors, address etc.
Now i want to create something where the user will be able to just Select the company, and the information would be shown below just for that company. I would want to design of course in order to appear nice.
I am basically looking for a way to display the total number of records for a selected number of tables and queries in my database on one screen or on one single page view. The problem with using reports or forms is that they tend to bind you to a single table as a record source. This summary would require multiple tables and queries. The summary data would look something like this with a total coming from a Count() or count type function:
# of records: 3000
# of records to insert: 500
# of records to delete: 400
# of records to update: 2100
# of records changing location: 100
and so on. One from each table or query.
I am currently developing a database to provide a friend with an auction tracking and ordering system.
I will have a number of questions the first is related to the Home Page/Dashboard/Summary form I am creating. I basically have a few sections, one of which is a combo box offering the user to select an auction to view in the summary section. This summary section contains the list of lots but I also hope to to expand on this and create multiple text boxes, each containing the answer to a number of queries (totals etc).
I have written all the queries and can see the results however as the form does not have a record source I would like to know how to make each text box populate with the result of different queries (ideally in vb - I am using ms access 2010)?
I have tried a few things, control source doesn't apply as I have no record source (i guess). I investigated Dlookup/Dcount but am unsure if these apply for the same reason. I understand I am likely to need a recordset etc in vb and have already tried a few things but unfortunately none of them work.
Hi Guys!
It's me again.
From one of my tables, custinfo, i want to generate a summary of records. What I mean is I want to count the total number of records, count those who doesn't have address entries, count those who doesn't have credit records. So in presentation, I want to have this:
Field No Records With Records Total
Address 10 256 266
CreditREc 5 261 266
Is it possible?
Thanks!
I have three tables with data.
Table1 is data for meals.
Table2 is data for room costs.
Table3 is data for payments made.
Each of these tables has a foreign key for EventID.I'm trying to produce a report that will show, for each EventID:
The total billed (which is meals + rooms)
The total paid (from Table3)
The balance due (the difference from the two above).
Do I have to create summary queries for each table?
The user will be creating a new project that contains a bunch of releases. The releases have standard names which are stored in a table tbl_ReleaseNames It should be noted that the list of names is not static.
The user selects which of the releases pertains to their project and then based on their selections, new records would be created in tbl_RFP_Release and then a subsequent form would open where it would display each of these newly created releases where they could enter additional information. I thought of creating an unbound checkbox associated with each of the standard names, and then checking to see if the checkbox was checked and then creating the new records followed by opening up the new form.
Is it possible, within an OnOpen even of a specific report, to set the printer selection and page setup (size, margins, etc.) to certain things? If so, how would I go about accomplishing this?
I would like to do this for specific users within our domain (this I won't have any trouble with).
I am having a DB and a report is there from query now what i want is ;
if query fields are apple, bat, cat, dog, elephant and I want in report the first three fields like apple, bat, cat to be displayed at first page then remaining on next and so on. Whereas I have a proper report header and footer which I do not want to change for any page means will remain same for all pages..
Before anybody says anything about it, no, my MS Access is not corrupt, and I don't need to reinstall, or update or anything like that.
Now, to the problem...... I have a union query that in essence ties 4 tables together. The query works great! Here's the issue...... When I try to create a data access page using the wizard, I get an error msg saying wizard was unable to create data access page. If I try to create in design view, I cannot view the fields of my union query to add to the data page.
I am including 2 databases..... the first one, called "union" contains the union query that will not work to create a data access page..... the second one, which is very similiar on the union query, just not as detailed does work. It is called "joined"
The only difference in these two union queries, is that I tried to include times for db"union", whereas for db"joined", I only calculated hours. I can make a data access page using the union query in db"joined", but not the union query in db"union"
Any ideas?
I want to create a main menu page for my database. I have tried the Navigation form and obviously I am doing something wrong....because the tabs won't open the forms. We have Access 2010 at work and I would like to create something similar to this:
Cardinal Rap - Main Menu
[button] Input Monthly data
This button would take me to another screen that would list the tables for appropriation, expenditures and revenue, each with their own respective button
[button] Reports
This button would take me to another screen that would would list the reports available each with their own respective button
[button] Monthly reconciliations
This button would take me to another screen that would list the tables necessary for my monthly reconciliations each with their own respective button that open that table.
The tabs in the Navigation form don't seem to do anything.
I haven't used access before and have been set the task to create a data of photos. The table is called 'Find a Photo' and contains 6 catergories of various information including river, site and date. I would like to create a search/command button by which i can type the river, site and date into seperate text boxes and search all of them at the same time.I don't know how to connect a command button to command button and not sure if any macros/queries are needed. Hope all this aint to hard to do.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have table(fruit) with 5 fields - apples, pears, grapes, oranges and lemons.
Say i have a shopping list apples -5, grapes -6 and lemons -2.How do i get this into the table.
My idea have combo box that you can select the apples, grapes and lemons from.
Have input form
label(apples) input(5)
label(grapes) input(6)
label(lemons) input(2)
how can i do this.
What i am try to do is have specific text boxes or items appear on the form depending on the combobox item you have chosen.
For Example
Combobox
CAR
CAKE RECEIPE
CLOTHING
if car is chosen 2 text boxes appear example car manufacturer, Car name. If Cake recipe is chosen a larger text box appears, if Clothing is chosen another combo box appears and gives you more options.
I have a form that contains a list box with 11 separate options. Within this list is the option named "None". My desire is to have a message box displayed when any option is selected other than "None". I have searched various threads, however I have been unsucessful nailing down my issue. Thanks in advance for the assistance.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to take a form, select the fields that you want to display on a template(I created the template)? Then the fields that aren't selected grey/disable them? In other words. We perform several tests, ie. test 2006.01 and 2006.02 etc. Each test is based on 1 table. So instead of having to go in each time a new test is needed, can I create a form that has selectable fields(checkboxes), and once I say ok it opens the "new" template it will have the fields that need to be on that test then grey out the ones that aren't going to be used this time around? Sort of new to this....
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am learning Access fairly quick, but still a newbie and stuck on an autofill problem. I have read everything I could find and it seems there may be code involved, which I'm not sure about.
The problem seems simple enough: I want to populate field "Rate" in the table "Services" based on the selection from a dropdown menu referencing ClientID in the Clients table. Specifically, my form uses a drop down menu to select ClientID for the Client table to associate with fields in the Project table and I have imbedded another form at the bottom which contains fields from the Services table including the Rate field I want autofilled based on the ClientID selection. Here are the tables and fields I'm working with...
...table...
Client
...fields...
ClientID (PK)
Rate
<and more>
...table...
Project

ProjectID (PK)
ClientID

Please be easy on me if this is a simple problem. Thanks!!!
If it possible to change if a group is visible based on what page a different group is printed on.
The report I'm working on is a Invoice and it has subtotals in one group and totals in another group.
If the totals are going to print on page 1 then there is no need to print the subtotals. Is there a way to know what page the totals will print on so I can set visible for subtotal group to true or false?
So I have a report with two pages. One page is about product exchange information and the other one payment. This report can either be printed or saved as a pdf (one pdf for both pages) and e-mailed.
This works fine, however if the item is under warranty then the exchange is for free and I do not want to print/e-mail the 2nd page (payment).My trigger field for this is "Warranty" which can be "Yes" or "No".How can I prevent that 2nd page from printing/e-mailing? Can it be simply skipped when the report is being created based on my field?
Hi
I have a subform on which I log the times spent on any particular project.
I have another subform on which I want to select a month and use this to select all the instances on which work was done on any given project for a particular month. I would prefer to use a pop up calender to select the month (i.e. by slecting the last day of the month in question)
Has anyone got any idea how I might do this - I am completely stumped.
Thanks in advance
Cheers

Right, I think this is a quick and easy one....just not for me!
I have a combo box with a list of names. I want to use whichever name a user selects as criteria for a query.
What do I need to type in the query criteria box or as SQL?
I have a form with a combo box this combo box looks up values in my STC table. The STC table has two fields STC & Resolver and each STC has a unique associated Resolver. What i want to happen is after the user has selected the STC from the combo box on the form the associated Resolver be displayed in a textbox on the form. I am ussing the following code but nothing seems to be happening:
Private Sub cboSTC_AfterUpdate()
Dim ResolverSource As String
ResolverSource = "SELECT tblSTC.[Resolver] " & _
"FROM tblSTC " & _
"WHERE tblSTC.[STC]='" & Me.cboSTC.Value & "';"
Me.txtResolver.RowSource = AgentSource
Me.txtResolver.Requery
End Sub
I choose a ‘Year’ from a combo box. Why doesn’t the data in my textbox update? (It’s a count of records for that year)
View 2 Replies View RelatedA tricky one this. Searched for answer but cannot find.
Acc 2003.
I have a main menu with 2 subforms.
In the on load event it sets the source object of the first subform, which displays a list of options (menu Style).
When choosing an option from SubForm1, I want SubForm2 to display the form I have coded in.
I currently have within subform 1 in the on click event the following.
Form_MainMenu.subform1.sourceobject = "formtodisplayinsubform2"
When running this from the main menu, nothing at all happens.
When opening just the subform 1 on it's own and clicking the option, it merely opens the main menu form.
Can anyone see what I am missing?
Thanks in advance
I inquired on this original thread [URL] .... to hide/show fields based on two Yes/No dropdowns.
Summary:
1.
If "OtherUnivEmployeesInvolved" = "Yes":
The fields
"OtherUnivEmployeeFullName1"
"OtherUnivEmployeeFullName2"
"OtherUnivEmployeeFullName3" are shown.
If "OtherUnivEmployeesInvolved" = "No": These 3 fields are hidden.
2.
If "OutsideRepresentVendor" = "Yes":
The fields
"OutsideIndividualLastName"
"OutsideIndividualFirstName"
"OutsideIndividualCompanyName"
"OutsideCompanyStreetAddress"
"OutsideCompanyCity"
"OutsideCompanyState"
"OutsideCompanyZip" are shown.
If "OutsideRepresentVendor" = "No": These 7 fields are hidden.
I have this basic validation code when a user hits the save button:
Code:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim ctrl As Control
For Each ctrl In Me.Controls
If ctrl.Tag <> "skip" Then
[Code] .....
Within "1." - If yes is selected, I only need "OtherUnivEmployeeFullName1" required.
Usually skipping FullName2 and FullName3 would be easy using the ctrl.tag "skip" but I am already using the control to show hide these fields so how to do that.
Within "2." - If yes is selected, I need all 7 fields required.
So I need to figure out how to require fields based on those Yes/No selections because right now the form is checking every field regardless of the yes/no selections. I would also need to skip "OtherUnivEmployeeFullName2" and "OtherUnivEmployeeFullName3" everytime.
if it is possible whereby if a user makes a selection in combobox 1 it must automatically generate the given vaules in combobox2 from the selection in combobox 1.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI know how to assign an event to a combo box, but I want to be able to launch a specific link, app, or email template, based on the actual selection from the combo box. So when I make a selection, whatever program or event I assign, to that specific selection, will launch.
