I Need A Database For Work
Jul 7, 2006
I need a database that will contain employee names and three job titles they will choose.
When a Job comes open I want to search the entire database and pull together a report that will show every employee that has chosen that job as one of his her three choices sorted by hire date.
I also would like a seperate table with the job titles and position codes that can be filled in automaticaly on the main form by typing the position code.
I have a database started with some of this but I can't get it to work right!
First I haven't got a clue how to make the job choice combo boxes link to the three textboxes on the form where the job titles chosen will be displayed.
Can someone please Help me?
Thanks
Charles

Hello everbody,
I'm sorry if my thread is in wrong section, cause I'm first time on this great forum :(! I hope you'll undrestand me ;)
My problem is with my database for my coffee bar, man who made database is still, and I don't have somebody to repair my database unfourtanetly :(
I formatted my C:, cause I installed new OS Windows XP PR SP2, and everything is deleted, but I save this .mdb file, but I don't have instalation CD for this program, cause man who installed me this database didn't give me instalation file :(!
And I saved this .mdb file, and now I try to run this POS.mdb,I can open "POS KASA" in english POS CASH, and I see articles - (ARTIKLI), and value of them it account values of them, just program doesn't count for me like before "sume" or "total" of EX. one count, for example coca cola 2.5 KM, fanta 2.5 KM = 5 KM, and now he doesn't count sume - total in program total is "UKUPNO", if somebody to know to repair this, or something another what is importing to work this database like before, please help me, database is on bosnian, if you need translating just ask me, cause I don't know to edit this file, and to have access to change words :(!
1'st colone in program interface (bosnian - english)
Sifarnici -something like codes
Artikli = Articles
Ulazi = Inputs
Storno racuna = storno count
Pregled storno racuna = review storno count
2-nd colone in program interface
Dokumenti - Documents
POS kasa = POS cash register
Dnevni promet = daily exchange
Trenutni saldo kase = current saldo of cash register
3-rd colone in program interface
Reports
Printanje prometa po broju = Printing exchange by number
Printanje prometa od datuma do datuma = Printing exchange from date to date
Printanje trenutnog prometa = Printing current exchange
IZLAZ = EXIT :)
Actually for me the most important is POS CASH REGISTER, cause it doesn't count total value of one count , total = ukupno doesn't work, sume doesn't work, and I can't give on my guests count, and I have problem with inspection cause I don't have counts :(, please help me and if you can repair this; IN ADVANCE TNX MUCH!
Greetings to all, from Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegowina!
I'm sorry really on my bad english, and I hope you'll understand me :(!

I am trying to take a string from an input box and place it in a table. I was told to use ado. I have tried but it seems to have problems with Access Data Projects. see http://databaseadvisors.com/pipermail/accessd/2003-April/005252.html
Does anyone know how to get this to work in an .adp database?

Goal: : To improve an application's performance by basing sub forms and combo
The application has a front and back-end. There is no SQL server involved. I use a module for, seeking out the back-end and automatically linking to the back-end in order that I might be able to provide updates. This has worked for me since first setting everything up.
First let me define what I mean by, “sub form” as to how I am designing my application. I have a number of, what I call, “main (unbound) forms” that are used to open up separate application modules. Each module contains a number of hyperlinks to each of the other application modules. Also, each main form (application module) contains a tab form with bound forms. Therefore, I am calling these lower level bound forms, sub forms and basing them on query files instead of tables. Many of the tables have fields for collecting information across a second form. I did not want to bring back all the fields when they are used in any of the two are three forms bound with the same table.
Problem: When I base either a main form or a sub-form on a query, that particular front-end query form no longer links to the back-end database table via a query file whenever I import everything g into a new/fresh version of the front-end application. Whnever I open one of the query files via the form, I get an error message in each of the fields indicating it can't fine the field even though the table is listed with all the fields. No, I do not have the same problem with forms based on tables.
I suspect that my problem is in what I am calling a main and sub form; and that the main form is really the first level bound form and never the top unbound form if one is used. I have a lot of forms. I just wanted to get some feedback on
my suspicions or find out what else could be the source of my problem before re-doing everything.
Thanks,
John

I have been using Excel to keep a daily track of when people are in to work, but the number of persons employed has increased and it is taking too much time to manually input data into the sheet.
I am looking at Access and I would like to know if what I want is possible.
The fields I would need are , Name , Date , Time worked(1 for a full day and 0.5 for a half) , Reason worked, and funded by(inside/outside organization)
I would like to make a template of form that has the following options.
1. The ability to select a date (possibly through a calendar selection)
2. Select one or multiple different persons from a list
3. Possibly two check boxes (full/half day) - that when selected input a 1 or 0.5 into the database
4. A text entry for reason worked.
5. Another check box for inside/outside funding that reflects the time worked in step 3 and that can be queried to see how many total days funding was given.

Hi all
I am facing disaster after two months of solid work on this database, the deadline is the morning of the 25th and just when i thought i had got it all working i then put the main bulk of the data into the database and the main search query won't work, it freezes and ends with 'invalid argument', when its the same argument as before when there was less data in it. also the relationships window is acting somewhat strangely, i cant seem to move the tables around within it, this is the same for any databases on my computer (im guessing this could be something to do with my Access on my computer)...
A quick note about the search function. it runs three queries dependent on each other, the master query runs of a sub query which runs off an inititial query (this was found to be a very good way of dealing with null values in the database). two of the the tables it runs off is a one to many relationship with the main table so not all contacts will have that variable, but i don't see why this would affect the query. in short the first query in the sequence searches for a status of a contact, then the second uses these results to search for a sub status then the final query searches for publications contacts want from the sub status query. the three tables it runs from are contacts, status(which includes substatus) and publications.
well, it really is the 11th hour here, quarter past the 11th hour to be honest. short of throwing my computer out the window and running off to a tropical island does anyone have any ideas....????
many many many many thanks in advance....

I am currently exploring the possibility of adding another element to our Database.
Each of our courses has a scheme of work associated with it, and this is completed on a daily basis by the tutor for each student. These are currently just Word documents we print out.
Example : I already have provided provision for recording attendance in the database, see below, (it may look a bit strange, but our training is ad-hoc so slightly different requirements than a college for example).

Is there way a to get this audit trail module to work with a form in Datasheet view? It works fine with a form in Single Form view; I can open the table where the audits are saved and everything looks good. But when implemented on a form in datasheet view, nothing happens. I don't get any errors and nothing is saved to the audit table.
Link : [URL] ....
Here's the vba code:
Sub AuditChanges(IDField As String, UserAction As String)
On Error GoTo AuditChanges_Err
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rsT As DAO.Recordset
Dim ctl As Control
Dim datTimeCheck As Date
Dim strUserID As String
[Code] ...
You call it in the BeforeUpdate event like so:
Code:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
'Track all changes made to the record
If Me.NewRecord Then
Call AuditChanges("Asset_ID", "NEW")
Else
Call AuditChanges("Asset_ID", "EDIT")
End If
End Sub

I 'm trying to create a database for tracking time off from work and print a weekly roster. I have built several databases in Access 2003 and have now transitioned to 2010 and it is seems to be going well. My past databases have been rather simple data in data out not really that big of a deal. However on this database they need a report that will show them a week view that shows them all the employees regular days off and any additional time off they have schedule in that week.
I have an employee info table that has employee basic info, Emp name, Emp number, Work Week code (which identifies which days off the employee has) Hire Dates (for seniority sorting) and then I have 7 fields listed as D1, D2, D3 and so on until D7 (I will try to explain these fields later).
I have another table (Time Requests) that has 3 fields, Date, Emp number, and Time code (which identifies why they are off work or unavailable to be assigned).
The last table I will refer to has 7 fields, they are Date1, Date2, Date3, Date4, Date,5 Date6, Date7
I now have a form. This form has the 7, fields Date1, Date2.... Date7.
On my form Date1 field is updated by a manager with a date that is a Sunday then Date2 = [Date1]+1,Date3 = [Date1]+2 and so on until I have all 7 fields showing dates from Sunday - Saturday.These fields are lined across the top in a vertical direction positioned above a subform of the employee info table. So directly below the 7 Date fields are the D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6, D7 fields then to the right is the Emp name and Emp number, This gives me a Week view of who is working.
I have been able to get the D1, D2.. fields to show their respective Work Week codes by writing very simple If Then statements . So here is where I AM STUCK, When I am showing this week view how do I get D1 - D7 to identify what date they are supposed to be in reference to Date1 - Date7 then compare themselves to the table Time Requests to see if they have a match and then set the value of D1, D2 . to the Time code in that table. D1 - D7 need to auto populate and do this for about 50 employees.

I am creating a database that tracks current projects for my team at work.
Some projects are only due once (e.g., mailed brochures due on 1/1/14) and some are due at scheduled intervals (e.g., status report due monthly, quarterly, etc.)
Ultimately, I'm hoping that my end result will allow us to click on a form and look at what everybody has due that day, in the next 7 days, and so forth.

We are creating a simple database to maintain driver license information for faculty, staff, and students who use cars from the university’s motor pool.
To do this, I have created two tables: tblDRIVER and tblLICENSE.
The fields in tblDRIVER are:
pkfDriverIndex
strLastName
strFirstName
strInitial
strAddress1
strAddress2
strCity
strState
strZIP
datBirthDate
The fields in tblLICENSE are:
pkfUpdateIndex
fkfDriverIndex
datDateUpdated
strState
strLicNumber
datExpirationDate
ynViolations
ynActive
Information about the driver is stored in tblDRIVER and the driver’s license information is stored in tblLICENSE. Periodically, we run a report that identifies drivers whose licenses are due to expire within a certain number of days. All this works fine.
My problem is that I am trying to create a lookup form that will load from a data entry form that will permit the Motor Pool Clerk to look up a driver by name and review the licensing information (which appears as a subform).
All this sort of works- I am using a combo box (based on a query) to look up a driver’s last name (which it does) and to populate all the driver’s information on the look-up form (including license information in a subform). Currently, the combo box locates the driver (including the unique index, last, and first names), and populates the form with first and last name but the rest of the information is not displayed on the look up form. Worse still, sometimes one driver’s last name matches up with the first name of the next driver listed in the table! This seems to happen only if a look up is attempted more than once. What gives.
Thanks for the help.

I’m a newbie to Access, I have done some simple things but I now have to do something that is out of my league.
I work in an engineering company and I'm trying to make a database that the engineers can select a specification quickly, a specification or spec is like a table. Things like materials, ratings, pipe Schedule, etc are stored in it. The spec says how strong a pipe will be.
When selecting a spec you have to look at the service (what the pipe is caring, eg high pressure steam, or low pressure water). Services also store things like Design Temperature and Design Pressure.
You are giving the Service, and you have to select a spec that will be able to handle the Design pressures. To do this you compare the Design pressure to the Maximum allowable Pipe pressure (it is calculated at the join (flange) as this is the weakest point).
One other pike of information is the Tables that have the Maximum allowable Pressure. To find the Maximum allowable Pressure, you need to know the Material, Rating and the Design Temperature. Each material has its own table.
If you have a look at the attached file then in tables, SPec has Spec ID (Spec) which is Primary Key. Flange Material (FlangeMat) and Flange Rating (FlangeRating).
The Flange Material should take you to another table, FlangeMat. This table is used to get you to the correct Maximum allowable Pressure table.
There are 2 Maximum allowable Pressure Tables, TABLE_211 and TABLE 212. Here the rest of the information from the Spec is needed (Flange Rating (these are the field names with 150, 300, 1500, etc numbers)). And also the Design Temperature is needed of the service.
Then it looks up the Maximum allowable Pressure from the Table and displays it. I was thinking a form.
Also the design Pressure needs to be displayed so the engineer can compare the two.
So for the form, there will need to be a drop down that has the Service, A drop down that has the Spec, and the two values, the Design Pressure and the Maximum allowable pressure.
All I have done is shown on the file, I started to play around with the Relationships and tried to create a Form but I could not get it to work so. I deleted it and left it with just the tables. If possible can someone please help me, maybe even get my file to work and the post the working one, I will then be able to understand it.

The company I work for uses A97 throughout. Although on my laptop I have Access 2003. I want to design my inventory control database using A2003 not 97 for obvious reasons. I know A97 users cannot open a Acess 2003 db.My Q is: If I created a A2003 db and also built some data access pages within the database and placed it on my server, could users view/add/edit records in the db via these pages using their web browsers? This would only be required across our small network of less than 10 users.Any advise welcome. Even just a YES or NO would help Many thanks.

Hi All,
I need to create some conditional formatting on a field that will change the colour depending on how much money has been spent
I have MaxBilling As the Field I want to attach the condition formatting too which can be a user entered value or system updated depending on other things.
The Current worked costs total field Is Called Text119.
when a project starts The Cost will be 0 so I don't intend to assign a colour there.
when the Costs get to 50% of MaxBilling I would like to change the colour to Green
70% Chances to yellow
90% Would change to Dark Red
I can do most things but %'s and me don't mix well LOL
Any help would be much appreciated
thanks

I have two database which are very similar. They both use the same back end table. I have a query that I developed in one db and it works correctly there. However, when I import it into the other db, I get the Ambiguous Outer Joins message. I've tried copying the SQL from one and pasting it into the other and that didn't help. I've checked the table used and they are all properly linked in the second db. Any ideas about what could be going on?

I have created a query thats initiated by a command button from a form and one of the criteria for the query is a 'Like' command.
On the form, various option buttons and combi-boxes determine the search criteria and put it into a hidden textbox. Then, the query is run based on the contents of that hidden textbox using 'Like'.
However, I cant seem to get the 'Like' command to work with the contents of the hidden [forms]![frmSearch].[txtSearchcriteria] field.
Do I need to edit the VB code on the form to format the text to include the Like '* prefix and *' suffix, or should my search box remain basic text and have the Like command in the query ??
I seem to have tried loads of variations incorporating the various components of the Like command (the asterisks, single quote marks and even the Like command itself) on either the Form field or query but nothing seems to work. Anyone have any ideas ??
Thanks chaps.

The on click event, for a Report, has the following:
Sub DateEntry()
Dim Start_Date As Date
Dim End_Date As Date
Start_Date = InputBox("Enter Start Date mm/dd/yyyy")
End_Date = InputBox("Enter End Date mm/dd/yyyy")
End Sub
This works fine and allows for Input. I added the sub below, but it does not work and the report opens:
Sub CheckEntry()
If Start_Date Is Null Then
MsgBox "No Date was Entered"
DoCmd.Close acReport, "Summary Action Report"
Exit Sub
End If
If End_Date Is Null Then
MsgBox "No Date was Entered"
DoCmd.Close acReport, "Summary Action Report"
End If
End Sub

I thought I understood Dlookup – but I am not able to make it work!
Here’s my scenario:
tbl_Details (GroupID, and other misc fields)
tbl_GroupList (AutoKey, GroupID, GroupName)
rpt_Report (GroupID, and other misc fields)
I would like my report to show the GroupName instead of GroupID (Data is entered as GroupID – hence, I created the look-up table “tbl_GroupList.”
I created a text box on my report:
=DLookup(“[GroupName]”,”[tbl_GroupList]”,”[GroupID] = Reports![rpt_Report]![GroupID]
I think my syntax is correct – I just can’t figure out why it won’t work. Do I need to link the tables?
I even tried DLookup in a query (changing the above code to fit the query fields) and can’t seem to make it work. Please help!
PS -- I don't think it matters, but I am trying to do this in a sub report.

i am trying to run an append query in SQL which appends a calculated value into another table 50 times incrementing the day by one day each time. When I run it it asks me for the parameter [NewDay] each time. It is obviuosly not picking up the variable.
Can anyone tell me why ?

For n = 0 To 50
NewDate = Date + n

I created a database in MS Access 2000 for the company I work for.
I sent this database from the US to our sister company in the UK, and the gentleman there has no right-click access within the data entry form.
Is there something that needs to be turned on or a check box that needs to be checked for right-click access within the program?
Thank you in advance.

SELECT Table1.T1Field1, Table1.T1Field2, Table1.T1Field3
FROM Table1, Table2
WHERE (((Table1.T1Field1)=[Table2].[T2Field1])
AND ((Table1.T1Field2)=[Table2].[T2Field2])
AND ((Table1.T1Field3)=[Table2].[T2Field3]));
I took this code off another thread, and wodnered if it would work for mine.
I have two tables in the database, one is data we update monthly the other is data we get send monthly, each customer has a unique id, but not customer id's are included in the data we get sent. I need to match the customer by their id then the name and then the product group.
So firstly i want it to check the id if there is an id match then i want it to look for the product group. If there is no id i want it too look for the name then the product group. Will the code above work by doing this.
Thanks
