How To Display Data From A Relation In List Box
Jul 3, 2013
I made a database with 3 tables:
"city"
"company"
"person"
Each company has a director (I choose from a list that's bound to "person" by its ID field)
Each person lives in a city (I choose from a list that's bound to "city" by its ID field)
So:
- a person's city is stored in "person" as the ID of "city", so I only have numbers (1, 2....)
- there can be two persons in "person" with the same name (the only thing that differs them is the city they live in)
The problem is:
When I try to choose a director in "company" from a list, it shows me the name, surname and the ID of the city the person lives in, all from the table "person". The trouble is, since there can be two persons/directors with the same name, I really need to see their cities (the real city name, not just its ID). But I still want the city in "person" to be stored as ID of "city".
I attached my database so you can see what I'm writing about.

Lastly i need to be able to move the stock either from one location to another in the warehouses or to a customer on a orderI have created a few tables and tried to link it as best i can after reading 100's of posts and access for dummies
tblProduct

I have created listbox with one column (contains one column only), now i would like to display all the characters of list item (want scroll bar to listbox).
How do i display all text of list item, I have already fixed Column Widths to max length (22";0.1"). However when scrolling to right, it is going to next blank column of list box, which is created only to change Column Widths property.

I have a form where I have two drop down list box.The first list box is called Transaction_Type. It contains three values: Created, Allocated and Sold
The second list box is called Product_Status. It contains 6 items: Allocated, Produced, Reworked, Shipped, To Be Produced, Unallocated.
I have a products form. When a user created more inventory they will selected in the drop down list create, then a quantity. Then I would like the status of the product to update to "Unallocated".
When the user placed an order but doesn't finish it they will choose the status of the inventory to be allocated so I would like the product status to be updated to allocated automatically.
They other status the user will choose them self and do not need to be linked to each other.
In my vba code I have tried with the OnClick and AfterUpdate sub procedures with the following code.
If Me.Transaction_Type.Value = "Created" Then
Me.Product_Status.Value = "Unallocated"
End If
If Me.Transaction_Type.Value = "Allocated" Then
Me.Product_Status.Value = "Allocated"
End If
Yes when i select "created" from the drop down list it does not change product_status to say "unallocated"

hi. i would like this to happen....
i have a database where jobs are entered and the date and times of the jobs are kept in separate Date and Time fields.
to enter a date the user uses this method "30 12 05" and to enter a time like this "21.30"
i would like a query that will display the 10 most recent job additions according to their respective date and times. however, it will not be enough simply to view these records in a report.. what would be ideal is if the 10 records are opened.. in their original form format (goto next record...previous...(1/10...5/10) and the fields are editable like in the default job entry form. this is because after a job record has been added, maybe 20 or so minutes later, that record would need to be retreived as the last bits of information for that record will have been established.
how can this be acheived. i am clueless at the moment, so if there is a solution even resembling this scenario that would be ideal. (if a filter is going to be used...it can be either the 'date' or the 'time' fields, ideally though the query would use a combination of the two to retreive a more exact date to filter the records by)
thank you access world for even considering my dilema.

I want to create a combo box on a form where I can choose between 5 company names, and upon my choice, I want a list box or another combo box to display the departments under the company I chose (each company has different departments), and when I choose the department, I want to another combo box to display the limited job titles under that department.
For example: I choose company A > combo box displays the 5 departments under company A (dept.1,2,3,4) I choose dept. 4 > display job titles under dept. 4
How can I do that? Should I do a table? A query?

I'm trying to get a listbox to display results of a query that are only related to the current record being viewed.I have a form (setup as a continuous form) that displays a vendor table. I have a query setup to reference what parts a vendor supplies, and I would like those results to be visible on the form. I would use a subform to make this happen, but if I try and drop a subform on the main form, it says it won't do it with a continuous form. So, the listbox. I copied my form, dropped in the subform, and took a copy of the SQL statement. I then took that SQL statement and dropped it on the Row Source of the unbound listbox. I do get a return of Parts and Prices, but its the whole list, not just a list for the currently displayed vendor. My SQL is currently thus:
Code:
SELECT tblPrice.[Part Number], tblPrice.Cost, tblPrice.[Price Date], tblPrice.[Bulk Discount], tblVendors.[Vendor Name]
FROM tblVendors INNER JOIN tblPrice ON tblVendors.[VendorID] = tblPrice.[VendorID];
I have tried to wrap my head around it, and I'm stuck. GoogleFu has also failed me, as I can't find something quite on point to what I'm doing.

What I want is for the "Time In" column in the listbox to show the time as hh:mm, just like the other two. The listbox is pointing to the table correctly, as evidenced by all the data showing up, but what floors me is despite the "sign_in" table showing time in all three columns in the desired format of hh:mm, the listbox seems to have its own thoughts about how to display the called data.

Hi to all,
I developed a database where I keep all the problems that I face and their solutions along with its category.
Now I want to have a form that when I choose each category, I should have all its records.
I heard that I should implement this by using a subform but I couldn't manage. With a search at the topics I've seen that I should use a macro but I don't know how to implement it.
Possibly after the lookup field I should have an After Update function but how can I connect it with the subform?
ex. at category "hardware: floppy" i have 2 records and i want to see only these, and when i choose category "hardware: hard disk" to have other 5 records of that category
Help plz?

I have code attached to a command button to fill a Combo Box with data from a music collection. A letter of the alphabet is entered into a Text Box then records beginning with that letter are copied from a table, either by Artist or Title. They are saved to a temporary table at which time they are in no particular order. Those records are copied to a further table and saved in alphabetical order. This table is then used to fill the Combo Box.
I used two temporary tables because the records were not displayed in the correct order. I hoped this might cure it, it did not. The records are in order in the table but not in the Combo Box.
Code:
Private Sub Command68_Click()
'SEARCH AND FILL COMBO BOX
On Error GoTo errTrap
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunSQL "DELETE * FROM tempList;"
[Code] .....

I have a form which displays records based on a selection from a list box on the form.
The default record displayed when I load the form is record 1 from the table, this is not an issue when I initially load the form but I also have options to filter the records displayed in the list box using various SQL statements, depending on the options selected.
However, when I apply one ofthese filters to the list box the default record displayed on the form still defaults to the first record in the table, which may not be included in the filtered list box.
Is there a way I can default to the first record listed in the list box rather than the first record in the table.

I have a question regarding the display of a list of numbers that are stored into a field of my database. Currently the numbers are comma-delineated which is fine with me, but I was wondering if there is a way to change the display of those numbers on the form so that it is easier to read.
Example:
current format - 1,2,3,4,7,8,9,10
desired format - 1-4, 7-10

I have a table which contains a number of records, each with a load of different columns. However, the new way of doing H&S splits Risk Assessments into Short and Long COSHH forms. Each experiment only has one Short form, but can have from 0-20 (or more Long). I need a way of adding a box to the form that will return all the associated Long forms for that particular record. I have tried using List Boxes and Combo boxes as well as creating a separate table for the Long Forms, but it isn't doing what I had envisioned.
List boxes appear to do what I want, however they just dump all of the results from the selected columns into the table. I only want the data for the specific record in question. For example, my first record has 6 Long forms, but a list box basically just pusts a snapshot of the table in there rather than the specific results.
All the Short and Long Forms have to be hyperlinked to the associated documents. I have successfully done this for the Short.

:confused: :confused: :confused:
Hello, I am new here to the forum.
I have a list box on a form that i want to display a list from a single cell or a table in my access database. The list in this cell is a list seperated by commas such as.....
Field 1 Field 2
example a, b, c, d
I want my listbox to display the list from the first cell in field 2.
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks,
Kevin :)
PS I know something similar can be done in visual basic. For example, a simple program can be written to take a list (seperated by commas (,) ) and then display this list in a listbox on the form. Is there a way that the simple code such as that can be altered to work in access?

I'm using the new Access. I never created a relationship till now. I linked three databases. I expected to enable a right-click and launch and be able to see all the records in the linked databases. Nothing happened. What am I doing wrong.

PS Is there a way to review the code used to creat relationship. I'm from dBase 4 where we had a dot prompt or regedit, not graphics. Not a complaint. It might taker me abit.

I have the below code behind a form so that a combo box will display a specific list of items based on the data in another combo box on my form.
I have two copies of this same form for two different departments. One of the forms works like a dream. However, when I copy that form, change the name, and update the code as pictured below, the form is asking for a parameter FROM MY ORIGINAL FORM and will not requery the combo box. I can't figure out why...there is no reference to the original form in my VBA as you can see below. I tried deleting the form and re-creating it, I tried deleting the code and re-typing it to no avail.
Private Sub cmboType_AfterUpdate()
Me.cmboAction.RowSource = "SELECT tblStatusList.Status FROM tblStatusList WHERE (((tblStatusList.Department)=[forms]![frmInquiryFraud]![cmboType]));"
End Sub

Hi everyone,
I cannot figure out how to link my tables. Here is my problem: I have one main table that contain informations about contracts (No folder, name of the provider, etc.) And I have 12 other tables. Each of them contains informations about one specific type of invoice. for exemple, one table is used for gaz billing, an other one is used for shipping, and so on. Now I don't know how to link all these tables with my main one. Because one entry in the main table have a 1-to-many relationship with all these tables. should I leave the relations, and just retreive information manually?
Here is the definition of the main table:
No - AutoNumber and primary key
Localisation - Text
...
The definition of the 12 tables is:
NoBill - AutoNumber and primary key
NoAutoInstallation - that contains the No from the main table
Total - total of the bill
I'm really confuse. Thanks in advance for your help!

Usually, a lookup column looks like this - "Take the value stored in this lookup column, use it to find some information in another table, and then display the information from that table in this table."
I need to Take the value stored in this lookup table, use it to fill two separate tables depending on ordertype. If the order is type1 I fill table 2 if order is type 2 I fill table 3
I have a database with 3 tables:
Table 1:
ID autonumber primary key
ORDR (numeric value increases by 1)
Table 2: Oders printable info1
ID autonumber primary key
ORDR (linked to Table 1 )
Table 3: Oders printable info2
ID autonumber primary key
ORDR (linked to Table 1 )
It's a piece of a large dabase and hard to explain, but I have to enter specifinc information in Table 1 then with relationship enter that information in Table 2 or Table 3 depending on the order type. Table 2 and 3 hold other information that is used to generate a report. Table 1 provides start unique identifier increased by 1 like, ORDR-001, 002 003 etc.
I never have to enter or should I say link same order number from table1 to both. Would like to prevent it by acident too.
Do I need a junction table to make it work? Is there a better way to make it work?
Thanks.

The problem:
I have a table: TBL_INVOICES
and I have table TBL_SHIPMENT_NOTES
One invoice can have many shipment notes, so a created a
One to many relation between TBL_INVOICES and TBL_SHIPMENT_NOTES
However, the shipment notes are created earlier, thus there is no
invoice_ID when I create a shipment note.
How to deal with this problem ? Please, help ...
