Dear all,
I am trying to do the following on a form:
field "A" is a combobox listing filed from a table (Field= CustomerName, Table=Customers).
filed "B" is a combobox that have to list filed Contact.Name where Ciontct.CompanyName = <companynmae selected at te first combobox>. What is the field name containing the value selected in the first combobox? How to write a SQL that workds?
Thanks for your help.
Itschak.
I have a combo: cmb_TrainingType. The sql is:
Code:
SELECT tblTrainingType.TypeID, tblTrainingType.Type FROM tblTrainingType ORDER BY tblTrainingType.Type;
My second combo (the one that should be filtered based on the Type chosen above) is cmb_Project_Title. The sql I have written (which isn't working) is:
Code:
SELECT tblCourseDetails.CDID, tblCourseDetails.Project_Title FROM tblCourseDetails WHERE (((tblCourseDetails.TypeID)=Forms!frmResourcing.cmb_Training_Type) And ((tblCourseDetails.Type)=Forms!frmResourcing.cmb_Training_Type)) ORDER BY tblCourseDetails.[Project_Title];
Both of the tables that are referenced have the fields TypeID and Type.
Hello all,
I'm new here so hello everybody.
Ok, I'm pretty new to Access '97 and so I have a problem already.
I want to make an adres database. I want to make the adres central and link the persons to that adres, so that i can have multiple persons on the same adres. I created an adres table and a person table, but how do I link the person to the adres???
I want to import data from one DB to another,
but only data without affecting the table structure and names.
In the import dialog box has only two options,
import tables and data
import tables only.
I want the third one ;)
import data only.
Is there any automatic way or do I have to make a VB sub?
What I'm doing now is to importing tables and data
to the second DB, but as u know this results in having every table
twice like Students Students1 Classes Classes1 and so on.
Then I'm removing one by one all the old tables and then renaming every the
Table1 to Table.
As you can imagine this is not a practical solution and it can be implemented only to small DBs, with a small number of tables.
In my case we are talking about a huge DB with over 20 tables,
and the above process (importing data) has to be done at least once per month.
Let me inform you that copying data and only data from one base to another is the only method suits in my case so please avoid suggesting alternative solutions.
Thanks in advance
Hello friends,
Please can anyone tell me how i can make the selections in my combo box (combo is bound to column1 of a table) appear in ascending order, by name (column2).
I.e. It's bound by column 1 (with is the Id#), but i want it to appear in ascending by column 2 (Usernames) to make selections easier. Please help :)
I'm new to database designing, and my first project is to build a website and database for the proposal development department at my job.
After reading up, this is the design I've gone with:
Proposal Database
I know this is really complicated for my first project. There is a lot of many to many relationships that I'm not sure that I need. I've tried to normalize it as much as I could, but thought I would post it here to get professional opinions.
Also, is it possible to create a form that would update the junction tables between the make to make relationships? For example, if I wanted to add Criteria from the EvaluationCriteria table to the first Proposal in the Proposal table, would I have to go in and manually update the Proposal_Evaluation table each time?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
I have a problem and I need any help I can get!
I have a master form (MasterForm) and a subform (SubForm).
in the SubForm I have 2 comboboxes (Institution) and (Office).
Each Institution has a number of Offices.
What I want is:
Based of the Institution the user choose, the offices that belong to this instituion will appear in the combobox.
How can I do that?

I'm trying to set up a database of books in a small library - each book has a prefix (Maths, English, Art etc) which I want users to be able to pick from a drop down list - I can do this, but the next field is a sub-category - is there a way of populating the dropdown list for the sub-category field depending on the chosen entry in the prefix field. eg if maths was chosen I would like the user to have the choice of number area, volume etc. but a different choice if the prefix was English.
any help very gratfully received - it seems to be a simple problem but it has me stumped.
i want to substract value in combobox, but the source of the other combobox is in other table then Form query shows. How can i do that?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a table called Locations that lists Countries and Cities:
USA, Detroit
USA, Chicago
USA, New York
UK, London
UK, Liverpool
UK, Birmingham
France, Paris
France, Le Mans
I then have another table for inputing details on people I know. This table would have columns called Country and City. I've figured out how to make the Country column a "lookup column" so that I can only enter USA, UK or France. But how do I make the City column show only the appropriate list of cities relevant to the country that I've selected (e.g. Paris or Le Mans if France is the selected country).
creating dynamic RibbonXML where statement will depend on user that is accessing access database. I created DynamicXML no problem and it changes context depending on user but my main problem is refreshing ribbon. I see that UsysRibbons tables changes fine but it's not being loaded. I have to restart access in order to this to take effect. I tried gobjRibbon.Invalidate method but it doesn't refresh ribbon for some reason... Here is my code:I created new module with name "Ribbon" and put this in there:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Public gobjRibbon As IRibbonUI
Public Sub CallbackOnLoad(Ribbon As IRibbonUI)
' Callbackname in XML File "onLoad"
Set gobjRibbon = Ribbon
End Sub
and then in form that validates a user I put:
If (Not gobjRibbon Is Nothing) Then
gobjRibbon.Invalidate
End If
This is something I've been working on that very nearly works until it get to point DM
What I need to do is convert a build time for a single unit which is stored as mins:seconds into a build time depending on number of units being built then display the time as Hours:Mins.
I don't know of any functions in access that do this so have been playing with the code below which works upto the point of DM where I need to add the mins together then if more than 59 add the hour(s) to hours and then use the mins part as the total mins.
It needs a lot of cleanning up as been playing but hope somebody can help.
T = The Time IE 2:43
N = Number of units being built
Function GetTotalTime(T As String, N As Long) As String
Dim M As Double, S As Double, Y As Integer, MZ As Integer, MS As Long, H As Single, Min As Long, MM As Long
Dim DM As Long, Z As Integer
Y = InStr(T, ":")
If Y <> 0 Then
'Do The Mins Convert To Hours First
M = Left(T, Y - 1)
If M > 0 Then
M = M * N 'Minutes * Number Of Units
'Convert Total Mins Into Hours
M = M / 60
Z = InStr(M, ".")
H = Left(M, Z - 1)
'The Left Over Mins
Min = Mid$(M, Z + 1, Len(M))
End If
'Do The Seconds
S = Mid(T, Y + 1, Len(T))
If S > 0 Then
S = S * N 'Seconds * Number Of Units
If S > 59 Then 'Has Minutes
S = S / 60 'Convert Total Seconds To Mins.Seconds
MZ = InStr(S, ".")
MM = Left(S, MZ - 1)
'Dont worry bout odd seconds
Else
MZ = InStr(S, ".")
MM = Left(S, MZ - 1)
End If
End If
End If
'Now Add The Mins Together then / 60 to get hour /mins and add the hours to hours the remaining mins are the total mins element for build.
DM = MM + Min
GetTotalTime = H & ":" & DM
End Function
Many thanks

Situation: 3 tables. Manufacturers, Countries & Provinces/States. 1 Form for data entry in Manufacturers.
Countries table contains ID, Country and CountryCode fields. i.e. 47, Great Britain & GB
Provinces/States table contains ID, Province/State and CountryCode. as in 1, Alaska and US.
In the form the country is easily selected from a list refering directly to the Countries table.
Problem: How to make a list in the form from which the user can simply select the province for the country that has previously been selected. And not a list with all teh provinces and states from every country in the world. (This would be a really really long list...)
I have several comboboxes (6) on my form.How to populate these comboboxes with values depending on selected value in previous combobox.
Example.Lets say that you select value "Audi" in combobox 1, then available values in combobox 2 should be "A4","A6","TT" etc. and if you selected "BMW" in combobox 1, then available values in combobox 2 should be "3-series", "5-series" etc...
I have a form that currently uses a "catch all" table for listing available equipment to choose from for an equipment field. I call it tblEquipment. What I want to do is to make it so when I type a name in (1 of 35) in one field of the current record, the record source for the equipment field immediately looks at a different table that has equipment available only for that name. To do this I plan on making 35 different tables with limited data originally found in tblEquipment. I would call these tblEquipment1, tblEquipment2, etc. I do not use a sub form, nor do I want to.
So my questions are:
1) can this be done
2)If it can be done, how can I do it?
Hi everyone,
I have two combo boxes on the same form bound to a table. I want the contents of the next combo box to change based on the previous combo selection e.g
cboContinent cboCountry
Africa Zambia
Africa Congo
Africa South africa
Europe England
Europe Holland
If I choose Africa in cboContinent, I want to see only Zambia, South Africa and Congo under cboCountry and if I choose Europe I want to see only England and Holland
Thanks

I have a Suppliers database which contains a form that will allow me to place orders with Suppliers.The Main form has a combo box that allows me to select the supplier. The combo box is called SupplierID with the following:
Row source: SELECT Suppliers.SupplierID, Suppliers.CompanyName FROM Suppliers ORDER BY Suppliers.CompanyName;
The subform is called Stock Subform witha combo box called ProductID with the following:
Row source: SELECT DISTINCT Products.ProductID, Products.ProductName, Suppliers.CompanyName, Products.Discontinued FROM Suppliers INNER JOIN Products ON Suppliers.SupplierID=Products.SupplierID WHERE (((Products.Discontinued)=0)) ORDER BY Products.ProductName;
Event Procedure - AfterUpdate: Private Sub ProductID_AfterUpdate()
On Error GoTo Err_ProductID_AfterUpdate
Dim strFilter As String
' Evaluate filter before it's passed to DLookup function.
strFilter = "ProductID = " & Me!ProductID
[code]..
The Link fields are done on the Purchase Order ID (PONoID).What I want to achieve is to select the supplier from the combo box (SupplierID) on the main form and then the combo box (ProductID) on the subform to filter to only show products directly supplied by the Supplier selected on the Main Form.
I'm looking for a way to have a text box auto fill based on the selection of a combo box on the same form. I cannot use the method i find all over the internet of using multiple columns in the combo box and basing the text box on that because the combo box already has multiple columns being used to determine its own possibilities and other combo box possibilities.
I would really just like the text box to work like this, but im still kinda inexperienced in VBA...
If combo box is "F004-001", then text box is "237"
If combo box is "F004-003", then text box is "280"
I know how to add in an "after update" thing, but i do not know how to do If/then statements.
I'm have quite a difficult time getting a form in Access 2010 to perform the way I would like it to. I have multiple tables that I've created, and a query that contains the data from the various tables. I then ran the form wizard to select the data from the query that I wanted to populate in my form and I've added 2 combo boxes.
What I want to do:
1. I want users to be able to select a category in combo box #1 (example: "Bag")
2. I want users to be able to select a detail in combo box #2 based on the category they selected in combo box #1 (example: Combo box #1, "bag" would populate the following selections for combo box #2: "sandwich" and "tool")
3. I want users to then receive a list of suppliers that provide the product they have selected, either "Bag: Sandwich" or "Bag: Tool"
I have combo box #1 populating a list of categories already. However, I am not able to get combo box #2 to provide choices based on the selection chosen for combo box #1.
Let's assume we have 3 tables:
Order_Category (Order_Category_ID, Order_Type_Name) with 2 records:
1, Minor
2, Major
Order_Type (Order_Category_ID, Order_Type) with 4 records:
1, Book
1, Pencil
2, Car
2, House
Orders (Order_Category_ID, Order_Type, value) with 2 records:
1, NULL, NULL
1, NULL, NULL
2, NULL, NULL
I want to create a Multiple Items form presenting Orders table with two Combo Boxes:
1. A combo box to select Order_Category_ID.
2. A combo box to select Order_Type. When 1 (Minor) is chosen in the first combo box it should show Book and Pencil, when 2 (Major) is chosen it should show Car and House.
Examples in the Internet show how to do it on a 'single row' forms using the RowSource property. I tried to use a query like:
SELECT Order_Type
FROM Order_Type
INNER JOIN Orders ON Order_Type.Order_Category_ID = Orders.Order_Category_ID
WHERE Order_Category_ID = [comboBoxOrderCategoryID]
But it sets same values for all records in the Multiple Items form and it should return different values in each rows based on value in the first combo box (Order_Category_ID).
Here's the deal:
I'm an extreme newbie, I do not know access very well, nor do I know VBA, I do know PHP.
I have a for in access that has 2 user input fields, one for prodid one for shipid. I have a combo box that upon entering data into the previous 2 fields, it does a query against an MsSQL database looking for a record that has both. In any case there will only be 2 outcomes, either 1 record, or null. I would like to have that same combo box automatically use the result as it's value so that users don't have to check the box, because they won't, and so that the rest of my VBA will be able to function properly.
Can anyone assist?
Thanks.
Thanks in advance for your help.
I would like to set up rules/constraints such that the value selected in combo box A determines the available values in combo box B. For example, "Combo box A" is bound to the [PartnerType] field and "Combo box B" is bound to the [PartnerRole] field. Let's say that the two choices in Combo Box A are "LLC", "LP", and "Corporation". There are 5 possible choices in Combo Box B: "X", "Y", "Z", "Q", and "U". If a user selects "LP" in Combo Box A, I would like Combo Box B to only show choices "X" and "Y". And if a user selects "LLC", only choices "Y", "Z", "Q", and "U".
Similarly, I would like to set this up so that Combo Box B is not initially visible--it becomes visible when a user selects "LLC" or "LP". If a user selected "Corporation", Combo Box B would remain hidden.
I have seen a few articles here and there on using a combo box to filter records in a sub-form and to filter records in another combo box, but I am not getting anywhere. I hope someone can belp
Exercise 1
For this exercise, I have the following tables:
tblClients containing client names
tblProjects containing some project details
I want to set up a simple form, so that the user can select a client name from a combo box on the main form which filters the project detail records in the Projects sub-form.
Once the user enters project details, I want this info as well as the selected ClientID to be fed back to tblProjects.
Exercise 2
I have the following tables:
tblProjects as above
tblWorkstream containiig names of workstreams and some other details.
Every project has one or more workstreams
I have a form where users will enter hours worked on each workstream. They will first select Project from a combo box on the main form. This should then filter records to be displayed in the Workstream Combo box, before they can then enter hours.
Please let me know if you need me to explain any part of this better.
Thanks in advance.
ps. I am a novice, so I'm hoping to do the above using default MS stuff, not with complex programming!!!
Thanks
I'm an Access newbie and I'm having trouble restricting a combo box on a subform based on the selection of the combo box on the form.The combo box (Combo1) on the main form (FrmOrganisation) gives a list of companies, I want the combo box (Combo2) in the subform (SbFrmEmployees) to list people only from that company. I then have a subform within that subform that displays information about the employee.

I have had a look through the forum and I am not sure if this can be done. I have a table. i.e. with columns Decsription 1, Cost 1, Description 2, Cost 2 Description 3, Cost 3 description 4, cost 4 etc.
I am looking to try and gave a combo box show this information as follows. I.e
Colum 1 on Combo; Column 2 on Combo
Description 1 Cost 1
Description 2 Cost 2
Description 3 Cost 3
Description 4 Cost 4
I want to be able to auto fill some fields on a form based on the combo box selection.
Has anyone done this before and can it be done.
Thanks
