Hi,
On my form I have an option group with 4 radio buttons. Depending on the button selected certain fields become visible. This works all fine. Problem is though that I don't know how to store the selected value. At the moment, every time you open the form you have to select the same button to see the info stored in the fields that become visible. I guess that I'll have to somehow store the value for the selected buttons in the table. But How? Do I refer to the frame and store the value corresponding to the number of button (1, 2, 3 or 4) or do I store the balue for each button seperately?
I've played with it for too long now and cannot find the golden tip. Please advice.
Thanks,
Walt

I want to use an array to store data from a list box into a variable. I want it to be able to store one value, or multiple values, depending on what is selected.
Main problem: this list box feeds off a table which has employee names and their e-mails. The list box itself only shows the names, and when I select what I want the array to store is their e-mails, not their names.
Code:
Dim strNames As String
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim intCount As Integer
For Each varItem In Me.lstNames.ItemsSelected
intCount = intCount + 1
Select Case Len(strNames)
[Code] ....
That code successfully displays the item I selected, but only displays the name. I need to make it look in the table and get me column #2. I also want it to be able to select more than one item at a time.

I am using this code
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "rptFilter", "Excel97-Excel2003Workbook(*.xls)", strFilename, True, "", , acExportQualityScreen
With the OutputFile set to "" so the user can select the directory on where they want to store the exported template. I'm trying to figure out if I could get the file path and the file name and store it on a string so I could use it for something else.

I have a form with windows media player embedded in it. What I want it to do is play a random song when I open it. So I put a field called Randomizer in the form and added this code.
Me.randomizer.Value = Int((60 - 1 + 1) * Rnd + 1)
Now How do I put the URL for the song into vba format? I tried just using the URL property field for the player (D:[randomizer].mp3) but no luck.

Hi guys,
Bit of a problem I'm hoping someone can help with. I have a telephone call logging system. The system is a tabbed form with each tab representing a person's Telephone Call Inbox. As new calls are entered into the database, they appear in each person's inbox until they are marked as dealt with.
This all works fine and there are no problems with the basics of it, but the problem I do have is that after I have split the database into a Back end and a Front end and distributed the Front ends to each user, when a new call is entered it doesn't appear in the persons inbox until they do a requery.
At first I sent the form to requery using the ontimer event, but the problem I have is that after every reqery the form goes back to the first record. A user on the office forum suggested I use the following code:
vCurrent = Me.Bookmark
Me.Requery
Me.Bookmark = vCurrent
But this gives me invalid bookmark errors, so I was then told to add
On Error Resume Next
But this stops the bookmark function working and instead the first record is loaded every 1 minute (as set by my timer).
Can anyone recommend a better way that actually works without invalid bookmark errors?

I was once told that Access does not like to store calculated values but I would like to.
Here is my expression: =([Shift Lenght]-[Total idle time]-[Total down time])/([Shift Lenght]-[Total idle time])*(0.33*[Total pc])/([Shift Lenght]-[Total idle time]-[Total down time])*([Total pc]-[Total scrap])/([Total pc]+0.1)*100
This gives me the value that I desire, now I need to store it in the table with the rest of the records data.
I am planing on storing 3 -4 expressions like this and then averaging them.
Then building a query to the averages for the day,week,month, and year.
Please be gentle I am not very familiar with access but learning a lot:)

Hi hope someone can help,
What I’m trying to do is work out price per quantity, at the mo I have a database that has products and price so lets take paint for an example.
If I have a 5 litre pot of paint and I’m selling it for £10 I would like a field that tells me the price per litre, so what I’m think I need to do is have a field called ”price” and divide it by a second field called “quantity” and output the sum to a third field called “price per litre” which populates the database.
Sadly I haven’t got a clue how to do this with access and if anyone can help it would be much appreciated.
Thanks

In everyones opinion what is the best way to handle picture uploads in an Access database?
One picture for one employee, where should I store the pictures. I know that keeping pictures in the database eats up space and really can slow ya down. Make a new folder just for pictures??
Thanks fellas and ladies.

Ok I know everyone is going to say you should not store calculations, but I have no choice!!!!!!!!!! I have the form ORDERFORM (recordsource ORDERS table) with a subform ORDERFORMsubPROD (recordsource ORDERSPROD table). Essently theses 2 forms togather allow me to place an order for multiple products and store them in the ORDERS (key: ORDERID) and ORDERSPROD (foregin key: ORDERID) tables. The ORDERFORM includes information such as an ORDERDT and the ORDERFORMsubPROD includes a sum of cost the products ordered which is shown in ORDERFORM with a boundcontrol = to the ORDERFORMsubPROD control that does the actual calculations.
Next I need to be able to pull specific informtaion from the ORDERS table and group it togather by the SALESMANID. To this end I have a form SALESMAN with a subform SALESMANsubORDERS that displayes the ORDERID, ORDERDT, and the calculated sum of the products ordered on that ORDERID based on the SALESMANID of the order.
So far everything stated above is correct and should not require that I store calculations. My problem comes in when I am trying to make a form that will filter this information based on user supplied criteria (my user does not want to have to use the filer buttions supplied by Access). I'm using DoCmd.OpenForm and setting my WHERE criteria based on a bunch of If .. Then statements that check the various filter text/combo boxes to determine if they are populated and then admend the WHERE statement accordingly. At least that is how it works on a very similar form that filters ORDERFORM. I have discovered that because the subform, SALESMANsubORDERS, is based on a query that includes calculations the WHERE statement needs to be phrased as HAVING. I can not figure out how to get Access to comply with this so all I can think of is to store the calculated values (and be able to allow them to be updated later) then pull them directly from the ORDERS table.
Anyone who can write precise/generic code and most importantly tell me where (what event) that code should be placed on please let me know. This is the first time I have run into this problem and it is really my last problem before completing a DB application that needs to be completed by Wed 1/19/2005. Thanks in advance for any advise/help I receive.

NE1 help me with this?
I want to store some pdf drawings in an mdb.
I want to be able to search just by the file name of these drawings.
I want to be able to click on any one of the file names I find and have adobe display the file.
I want to compile this into an mde to make it a stand alone app.
I can do this using asp on a web server. But I can't seem to figure out how to do it just using access without asp.

Hi
I am creating a contact management database.
I have set it up and now need to create an invoice section. An invoice needs to be issued every month and is worked out on a percentage of works complete. For example in one job there may be 10 items of work and for 8 of these iems 25% of the work is complete and the other 2 no work has started.
Therefore my invoice needs to be able to calculate 25% of the value of the 8 items and work out a total price to be invoiced. Each time an invoice is created I need to be able to store the invoice value and the percent value of each item complete.
Does any one have any ideas as to a good way of doing this. That is if you can undersatnd what I am asking for. Thanks for any help.

I have a handful of misc. data that is unique an really doesn't fit anywhere... I need it to be easily updateable, as it will and needs to change from time to time, What should I do with it?
Some of the data is a "Common Footer" that prints on ALL reports and DOES change periodically. I decided to create a common footer table with a single value and can access it from all of my reports... it works great!
However, I now have a bunch of other misc. data that I need to store, like the "Working Year" (I am going to use the field to dictate which year of info to pull the data from) "Common Header", etc. Additionally, I am considering storing formatting data such as font size (still considering this).
So with all this explained, to sum it all up, what is the best method for handling all of this misc. data? I didn't think creating a separate table for each piece was the best idea.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Lets say an employee form withs the name, the position, the birthdate, ... and a picture of the person.
There are several ways to store pictures in a database, each having pros and cons.
Experienced developpers in dealing with pictures would be kind to tell me the way they recommend to store the picture, and the best way to simply display it on the form.
Thanks,

Hi,
I know this goes against typicall database rules however I really need to do this.
I have a table in it are three fields
Rate, Amount, and Pay
The Rate is fixed, the amount is fixed per record however the pay varies for each record.
I am calling this table for a word merge and I cannot get the calculation to run on the word document.
So, how can I populate the table field Pay with the calculation? Is there some kind of query or something?
Thanks.

I have a form based on a query. The query uses a parameter to filter the data to be displayed on the form. The user then enters additional data. I'm using a requery macro to refresh the data after the user completes the data entry. The problem is the user has to enter the parameter value twice. Once for the original parameter and once for the requery.
Is there a way for the requery to use the values from the original parameter instead of having to re-enter the parameter values? If so, how do you store the values from the parameter and pass these values to the requery?
Thanks for you help,
Jeff

I searched the archive for how to store a calculated value and found a lot of controversial dialogue about the pros/cons but not really a solution on how to do it.
I have a form based on a query. The database behind the form and query is our ERP database and is connected though an odbc connection. The form allows the user to enter some shipping dimensions and freight rates. The data is automatically stored in the ERP database and any user can view the data from the ERP software.
Here is the problem. There are also some freight calculations that occur on the form that our business teams want the results stored in the ERP database. They can view the results from the calculations using the ERP software instead having to open a 2nd application (Access form) to view the calculated data.
I have determined which fields in the ERP database will hold the data. I only need the vb code or other suggestions on how to update the calculated values into the database.
I apologize for the long message. Thanks for your help,
Jeff

Hello Everyone,
I'm not sure if this is possible. I have a form (link to a table) with option boxes that when I click on one of the option boxes sets a value to a field in the table. The problem is that when I check a different option box I have to manually uncheck the other option box that was previously checked. Is there a way to have this done automatically? Meaning that if I check box 1 and then box 2, when I check box 2, then box 1 has to get Unchecked.
I also tried using a group option with different option boxes and that seems to work fine as far keeping only one option box checked, but don't know how to make the checked box to store its value to a table. Please help!
:confused:
Thanks!

Hello, is it possible to temporally store a date from a combo box and display this date in the header of a report? (without having to store in a table)I have a form with 2 combo boxes, one combo where the user selects “from date” and another combo where the user selects an “End date” and a button that loads up a report. I would like to temporally store these 2 dates and display them in the header of the report when the report is loaded by the button.Ideally with either a "to" or a "-" between the dates like this: 25/02/2006 to 03/03/2006Is this possible?, I think I need to a variable to store the date(s) but not sure how to go about this. Anybody kindly point me in the right direction?Thanks

I created a report database that rely's on both default data and user entered data. Unfortunately the default data is going to be different for each office and needs to be easily updated as needed. So I created a "default data table" and named it DefaultData_tbl; and has these field names in it:
Office
Phone
Address
Fax
The personnel Main form is run from the Main_tbl with the exception of the items above (which reside on the DefaultData_tbl). This default data then needs to be automatically applied into the Main_tbl, via the Main form, which has Main_tbl as it's data source. Then the user does not have to keep filling in these textboxes for each personnel entry (unless it is different for a particular reason; which they should be able to change as needed and then automatically revert back to the DefaultData_tbl for any future personnel inputs). A personnel report (to file in their personnel records) is printed and will also need to pull from this table the items listed above (unless it is changed by the user for that one person they were entering in). The report name is NIPRNet_rpt.
For instance:
Say the Office is "Marketing"...
Everywhere on the reports, tables and forms that asks for the office should automatically put "Marketing" in the spot.
Now, if I get someone who is working in Recieving today, I should be able to update those office boxes with "Receiving" (just this one time) which will also have to be updated on the Main_tbl and NIPRNet_rpt (but should NOT update the DefaultData_tbl).
Then it should automatically revert back to "Marketing" when I pull up a new user
Putting this information in the default data under properties works fine, but I am sending this out to all the offices and want them to be able to easily enter in their particular default data. I don't want to have to create 30 databases all with default data set in them already. Plus, if something changes, like their phone number, I want them to be able to update this in their default data form and it be updated for future use.
I tried putting this in the Office textbox on the Entry Form:
=[Tables]![DefaultData_tbl]![Office]
All I get in the textbox is "Name?"
I would make it a Label instead of a Textbox to associate it, but the user has to have the ability to easily change this default data inside the form as they are filling it out. This updated data is also needed to update the Main_tbl and the NIPRNet_rpt.
I am racking my brain trying to figure out what I am missing here. The DefaultData_tbl will not have more than one record in it; as all it is doing is storing the "initial setup" default data to be used in reports and forms. Anybody know what else I can try to get this to work?

I have a table with with records that need to be captured for current and historical reporting. This is my table:
[Incident] [planned_end_date] [Report_Date}
1234 3/8/13 2/28/13
1234 3/8/13 3/1/13
1234 3/10/13 3/2/13
Then, on the next report dated 3/3/13 the incident may not be on the report because it is closed.
I need to be able to report on a count of incidents that meet different criteria at any point in time. I first made [Incident] and [planned_end_date] the PK but then when the [planned_end_date] changed it wouldn't be imported. If I have no PK all records will be imported and I would have the data I need but I think the table will grow too quickly (40 new records per day).

How do I enter and store a period of time that may be of any length: years (.. unlikely but ...), days, hours, minutes, seconds (or even micro seconds) that I can later add to other dates or times stored in my database? How do I create a sensible data entry mask for yyyy/ddd/hh:nn:ss.999 and then convert this to a field compatible with date/time functions? And what format should this data take (be converted to ..?) and be stored in?
