I'm trying to pull fields from a table into a form - and have had other problems with this.....
What is textual information in one table. ie. the table I am trying to acces from a drop down will only appear as numbers instead of the text entry in the original - I have triend the bound colums but these are correct?
I've had this problem at a couple of points - it seems to be formatting the forms as numbers and pulling in the record numbers rather than the textual information. The bound colums are pointed at the textual entries but I can not change the formatting in the forms etc to text rather than number... In the drop down it shows the text entries but will not allow them to be saved when updated?
I have a main form and a subform. The main form displays the information as combo box = column.2 (in other words it shows the actual word not recorded y/n checkbox = obviously shows which is checked
However the subform shows
combobox = 1 or 2 etc the recordid y/n check box 1 for yes 2 for no
How do I get the subform to display the words instead of numbers? (can live with the Y/N)
have basically the same issue with a split form (combo only) shows words and datasheet view shows corresponding record id number
tried using =[coffeetype].[column.2] on both the subform and split form datasheet but doesn't work.
I have some data I need to clean. It is in an address field the majority of the data is fine but there are some records with words that have been spelt with numbers:
I have a form that have textbox that calculate total and then i want to convert numbers to words. Iv got the code with function currencytotext but when i set the code source of another textbox to:
=currencytotext([inv_total])
I have an error. I saw this on internet but i think bcz I am using access 2013 may be the syntax is different a bit.
I'm working on a form that when opened has a pop up filter that asks you to enter "1, 2, 3, 4 or 5". These numbers have to be equal to an actual word within the form. For example, on the form we have a box called "business unit". One of the options in "business unit" is "Human Resources".
I want to set 1 = to Human Resources so that way in the filter box all a person has to type is 1, and all of HR's records will pop up. The reason for this is we are trying to eliminate typing as much as possible.
I am using access 2007 i need to know that i have a field as combined sum of apx cost with the name =sum([apx cost]) in the report section, i need the value coming in this box to be converted in text as pak ruppees.
I am attempting to split out a descriptive field so that each words which may exist in that particular field will be split out into seperate fields ... for example, if the violation field is populated with a four worded description of 'Assualt on Police Officer' I would like to somehow strip out the words so that 'Assualt' and 'on' and 'Police' and 'Officer' are all in seperate fields. I am not sure if this can be done using a simple query in access ... if anyone can offer any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it.
This is what I have: Private Sub GO_Click() If [ARyear] = 2006 Then DoCmd.OpenForm "frm2006AR", acNormal DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmSelectYear"
Else End If
If [ARyear] = 2005 Then DoCmd.OpenForm "frmFilterForm", acNormal DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmSelectYear" Else
End If
End Sub
This is on a command button that references an unbound field (ARyear). Naturally when I enter 2005, it pulls up the proper form - however, when I enter 2006 I recieve an error: Run Time '2467'. However, it still opens the form if I click on 'END' on the error box.
My guess is that the code is not finished and thats why the 2005 works (because its at the end).
Th following sql select statement works in mssql server but gives an error in Access. Says that there is a "syntax error in FROM clause". Can anyone translate this into access.
SELECT L1.* from log as L1 JOIN (SELECT [vehicle number],Max(Date+' '+time) as maxdate FROM log GROUP BY [vehicle number]) AS L2 ON L1.[vehicle number] = L2.[vehicle number] and L2.maxdate = L1.date+' '+L1.time
data sample
unit id Date Time 00100 01/12/2007 8:00 00100 01/12/2007 8:45 00200 01/12/2007 8:50 00100 01/13/2007 13:30 00300 01/13/2007 13:45 00100 01/14/2007 11:00 00200 01/14/2007 11:30
I'm having multiple problems with my database like things such as -
i'm currently working on the Query 2 - On the Phone database (ignore Query 1) and i want to search for multiple plot numbers preferably in one parameter prompt with a comma to seperate numbers. (this could be a multitude of numbers so i would like to be able to input as many as needed). Also when i do search on this query since the Criteria is a 'Between' Value i would expect everything between the 2 numbers input to show up - but a lot of numbers out of the range show up too - why is this? (The Numbers are like "69 to 136" and they will show up - but 1-69 and 136-170 would too
I would also like to implement the search results from Query 2 into the Form i currently have made but it just opens up a access table when the search is made?
i cannot link my database as it is too big for the server - But here are the Criteria for Query 2:
Plot No - (criteria = Between [Enter First Plot No:] And [Enter Last Plot No:]) Site - (criteria = Like "*" & [Enter Site:] & "*") Product - (criteria = Like "*" & [Enter Product:] & "*"
The Query is the one im most concerned about , i can live without a form.
Does anyone have a definitive list of reserved words in Access? I understand certan words are reserved because they cause a problem when using vba. Is this correct?
It would make sense because I used to have a field called "Name" and my controls never worked correctly. I have since changed this and all is ok.
I have searched Access help files and this forum, but am unable to find a complete list other than the odd one like name, date, group etc.
Hi. I have a list of 120000 entries, of companies in the UK. I need a query that will grab all the ones which have relevent similar names to others, like a duplicate query, but a bit more specific. For instance, First Choice UK, and First choice PLC are the same company, but have two entries. but I dont want to just scroll it would take ages. Is there a way to get a query to grab anything with matching words to other entries. Not necessarily the first two words, as my subject suggests, because the company name may not be two words, but whether there is any similarity in the name at all.
Has anyone seen the message in the attached file? I got this when I was trying to update the row source on the field after I had a problem with data in a report coming up inaccurate. I've been developing in MS Access for about 7 years now and have never seen this. Any explination for this would be greatly appreciated.
I am using MS Access 2000 on a Windows 98SE machine. :eek:
I have a table and in there is the names of sandwiches, their prices and also extra info which includes whether the sandwich contains nuts etc. The actual text is "MAY CONTAIN NUTS" . When searching through the query i have made, there is the text - Extra info? for the query criteria or question and then i have to type in what i want to search or query for. Is it possible that i can just use the words 'nuts' when i search and then it will bring up sandwiches which contain the text "MAY CONTAIN NUTS" in the extra info field so that when querying it is much faster to find the sandwiches which contain nuts? If you can do this then please help. Thanks, jon.

Ok so in excel I have some numbers that are stored as text. The reason being that they are zip codes and some begin with 0 and excel doesn't want numbers to start with 0....so when I import these into an access field that has an input mask for zip codes...will it convert these correctly since the field is a text with input mask?
I have 2 fields that I would like to automate if possible
One field is called "p/o number" and another field called "line no"
These fields are part of an ordering database
Let say I have 200 items to purchase form 10 suppliers
And form example 20 items from each supplier
What I do at present is put the order number on each line item and the line number
example
p/o number line no
1 1 1 2 1 3
2 1 2 2 2 3 2 4
What I want to do is just put the first po number in the required line . Put the first line number in i.e. "1" and the macro will complete all the p/o numbers and line numbers for me as per the ones marked in red.
