How To Make A Field Automatically Receive Same Value From Another Field

Apr 22, 2014

In Access 2013, in a table named DOCSDETAIL or form, I want the UTENTE (meaning user) field (Currency type €) automatically receives the same amount of PVP field (Currency type €) but can be modified as needed.

Example: Registration of documents in which the amount paid by the USER has two possibilities;

1. DifferS from PVP (Public Sale Price)
2. Equal the PVP

Looks like it might be used

= "Update your_table set your_field_new = your_field_old"

= "Update DOCSDETALHE set UTENTE = PVP"

But do not know where to put and if the syntax is correct!

Automatically Populate A Date Field Based On Value Entered In Another Field

Nov 10, 2005

I need to create a New Form control for this situation:

If I enter a date into a field and the choice for another field is equal to a certain value. How can I get the date I entered to be automatically populated into another date field.

For example:

If I enter 11/10/2005 in a date field and I choose either "BN", "BA", or "BT" in a text field, I need that date of 11/10/2005 to be automatically populated in another date field on the same form.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Tables :: Automatically Fill Field Based On Keywords In Another Field

Dec 3, 2013

I'm trying to complete a database.

It is to manage details of pupils with additional support needs, and plan for the extra arrangements the school will provide for assessments.

It has 2 Tables

tbl-PupilDetails
-ScottishCandidateNumber primary key (Unique number which identifies pupils to the exams board)
-Forename
-Surname
-DOB
-YearGroup
-Class
-NatureOfNeed (memo)
-EvidenceOfNeed (memo)

tbl-SubjectLevelArrangement
-ID Primary key, Autonumber
-Pupil foreign key to tblPupilDetails
-Subject
-Faculty
-Level
-Arrangement

I currently use forms for adding new pupils, and updating pupil subjects/arrangements/levels.

I also have forms to search for specific pupils, and to create lists for faculty heads showing which pupils are taking subjects within their faculty and the arrangements we expect to provide.

I use the forms to run queries, which can then output to reports for printing.

Where I am currently having an issue is the faculty field in the tbl-SubjectLevelArrangements. (If I didn't have to report to faculty heads I would just leave it out, but management will insist.)

Currently I have a form with dropdowns for adding subject, faculty, level and arrangement manually. This is acceptable for the subject, level and arrangement because they are completely interchangeable and dynamic throughout the academic year as pupils may drop down a level, or change the type of arrangement they require.

However as faculties are inextricably linked to subjects, I want to remove the possibility of human error. i.e. when a user (me) chooses either geography, history, or RE, then the faculty will always be Humanities, likewise if the user chooses French, German, or Spanish, then the faculty can only be Modern Languages etc.

I'm convinced there must be a very simple way to ensure that the faculty field prefills based on the limited keywords available in the subject field, but I just cannot figure it out.

Reports :: Get Remarks Automatically In Field Based On Other Field In Report

Dec 15, 2013

I made a report that have 'txtRemarks' field, I just want to get remarks automatically in 'txtRemarks' field based on the other field in report. that is why I used a function like below:

Code:
Private Function Estd_Remarks(Estd_Point As Long) As String
If Me.Estd_Point < 20 Or Me.Estd_Point = 0 Then
Estd_Point = "Earlier Established"
Esle
Estd_Point = "OK"
End If
Estd_Remarks = Estd_Point
End Function

And I wrote in properties 'On Format' event this code below:

Code:
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
If Estd_Remarks = "Ok" Then
Me.txtRemarks = "Ranked & Sortlisted"
Else
Me.txtRemarks = "Estd_Remarks"
End If
End Sub

When preview the report then it shows
Compile error
Argument optional

Automatically Set A Field Based On A Field In Another Table

Aug 12, 2005

I have two tables, each has a "status" for a project. In the first table there is only one instance of each project name, in the second table there may be more than 1, will always have the same name but may have a different "Status" (field).

I need the Status field of the first table to be set to "Assigned" if ANY of the records in the second table pertaining to that project are set to "Assigned".

Can I do this with my table or will I need to do it with a query/form combination?

Thanks,

Make Field Auto Populate Based On Value Of Field In Another Table

Mar 4, 2008

I'm creating a database that keeps a track of questions and scores.

The questions in the database need to be dynamic and are changed frequently.

I have a scorecard table which keeps a record of scores and the applicable question at the time the record was saved. I need to do this because in 6 months time we may want to provide feedback. As the question may have changed we need to be able to refer back to what the question was.

I want the question field in my scorecard table to populate with the value in my question table.

I have tried a number of things including setting the question field in the scorecard table to a lookup based on the following query:

SELECT tblQ1.Q1
FROM tblQ1;

This works however only as a list or combo box. I don't want the user to have to select the question. I want it to auto populate, is this possible?

Copying A Field Automatically From Another Field

Apr 14, 2005

Hi

Forgive me - but i am new to db.

I have an employee field in my purchase orders from and when I do stock transactions - i have an employee field against each item in the purchase order. I would like to just copy the employee field from the purchase order form automatically next to each product listed instead of having to keep typing the same thing.

the reason i am doing this is because when people come to take stock out - i would like to see there name against each item in the products from so people can not not take more than they ordered.

thanks in advance.

Column Names. Can I Make The Name Field "higher"? (to Make Room For More Lines)

Sep 25, 2006

I'm currently working with a form, which is in datasheet view. I have many rows which are combo boxes (yes/no), and the name is rather long. So each line (each row) spreads on to 2-3 pages to the right.What I would like to do is make the namebar, on top of every column, a little bit higher, so the name would be split into two lines, or three. Allowing me to make the width allot smaller.Here is an example of my problem:http://213.213.137.96/~terminal/columns.jpgSo my question is, can I change the height of the column name? Or is there some trick I can use?regardsFrímann Kjerúlf

How To Make Unbound Field Auto-populate Conditionally From Another Unbound Field

Jan 30, 2015

To make it simple, I have a list of contact names and their email. I want to have a form with no control source and have 2 simple drop down boxes for their Name and their Email. What I would like to happen is the user choose a name from the drop down in field 1 and then the field below auto-populate their email in field 2. I understand I can use conditional IF/THEN and list out each email, but the contact list is ever changing, so I want to first drop down to link to the TblContacts, have the user pick the name from the list and then have the 2nd field autopopulate from that same TblContacts with their email respective to the Name entered in field 1. My form has two field [Traveler] and [Email]...The tblContacts two fields are [Name] and [Email]

Code:
DLookup("[Email]", "tblContact", "[Name] = [frmEmail]![Traveler]")

Automatically Fill In Field

Aug 12, 2005

Hi everybody,

I have a table that has 4 columns as shown below:

(*It really isn't code, I just couldn't figure out how else to keep the columns in place!)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Store Name Invoice Number Customer Name Customer Address
Store1 1 Bob PO Box 55
Store1 2 Joe PO Box 789
Store2 3 Chris PO Box 1254
-------------------------------------------------------------------
On my input form, for entering a new invoice, when you select the customer name, I want the form to automatically fill in the correct address in the "Customer Address" field.

I think there has to be a way to do this because there is only ever going to be one address for every customer. And the same customers will be comming back very often.

Does anyone have any ideas?

-Chris

Automatically Update Field

Sep 12, 2006

I am currently handling an insurance operation. I have 5 Sales Executives (SE) who receives certain percentage of commission for each sold insurance policy. SE receives their respective commission on a pro-rata basis. Meaning, if they give 4 equal monthly payment scheme to their clients, they will also receive their commission -- 4 times.

Example:
SE Commission for one sold policy is: 100.00. (Granted SE gives 4-month-term, SE will be receiving 25.00 monthly, upon cleared payment)

On my 2 tables lies the following fields:
[Table1]
SECom1
SECom2
SECom3
SECom4

[Table2]
CustPayment1
CustPayment2
CustPayment3
CustPayment4

Is it possible to automatically update Table1.SECom2 based on the figure on Table1.SECom1, once Table2.CustPayment2 is updated?

Thank you!

Sheila

Automatically Filling A Field

Jan 25, 2006

This is probably very simple to do, but, I am most likely missing the obvious...
I have 3 fields,
UnitPrice,
NumberPerUnit, and
NumberPerUnitCost.
I would like to have the NumberPerUnitCost field filled automatically based on what I have entered into the other 2 fields. I would also like to have this saved in my table as I will use this single unit cost when calculating some production costs.
Any and all help would be appreciated. If I am going about this the wrong way, please redirect me.

Automatically Add Field To Imported CSV

Feb 5, 2015

My "MainMenuForm" contains a button that imports a specific csv on a specific location.Someone should do this import once per day. The problem is that there is no way for me, once the import has been done, to know which records are "new".There is no unique field that distinguishes the new records from the old ones.

I was thinking of adding like a Date() field to that csv (= the date where it was imported). Can this be done automatically? So if I import a file today, the final column would be 05/02/2015If i import a new file tomorrow, it would be 06/02/2015.

Automatically Add New Memo Field

Jun 27, 2011

My boss has been asking me to create forms in which he can add new records at any time. He has different review cycles for each company he owns (either monthly, quarterly, or annually). I have a form called "REVIEWS" where my boss wants to be able to add a memo with a time stamp each time the review cycle is updated.

How can I use the "addNew" function so that a new memo text box appears in the form each time the review cycle is completed? My boss wants to be able to see each of his notes for each time he reviews a company so I want to be able to keep the old memos as well.

Adding An Autonumber Field Automatically

Apr 27, 2007

Hi,

Can somebody help...
I'm trying to put via an automatic way a field to a table that autonumbers. When I use a select-query: ALTER TABLE tablename ADD COLUMN Id Autonumber, Access doesn't recognizes the type "Autonumber". Even in VBA when I use the .createfield method, I can't set the datatype "Autonumber". I'm pretty sure it must be possible (as access can store anyway the indexes.. actually, I want those indexes as numbers in a separate field).

Thanks a million for any help!!!
Leen
