The above formula works as is in the field I have it in, but need it performed only if [Label5] is marked yes. I guess what I need is what goes in front of the above formula. I've looked through the forum, but it is so huge I had no luck finding what I needed.
If [Label5] is no, I need it to go to [Label6] and if [Label6] is yes, perform another calc like the one above. If [Lable6] is no, I need an error message.
Hope this is clear. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Hi all very simple question i'm sure but had a look through the forums and couldn't find anything.
On a form i have 2 buttons, one for new data and one for editing data. When either of these buttons are clicked a few text boxes pop up and immediately display data (The first record of the recordset). For the edit button this fine, however how do i get the text boxes to display a new record and not allow the user to head backwards through the recordset only onto a new record??
I have a form that has code tied to the 'on open' event that is going to be accessed by users where we want them to only have access to certain fields which we want them to fill out. The fileds that will be locked will change based on the field called 'Item Number'. The code will be long because there are 30 different Item Numbers and about 10 to 20 fields that we will disable based on the Item Number. The code is like:
Dim Item_Number As String If Me.Item_Number = "32000" Then Me.Batch_Lot_Number.Enabled = False End If
This is all great except that the disable makes the field kind of obscure by the color it gives it. I don't want to use the lock property because that doesn't give you a visual clue that its locked.
Is there a way to change the color of the field background using VBA?
I may be missing something here, but can any one help?
I am using a Iif statment in a query to filter records as follows:
If([value from a form]= "all holidays",("weeks hols" or "days hols"),"not a holiday")
This is returning a to complex to calculate error - I think it is a Syntax error but could be wrong but if I enter The string "week hols" or "days Hol" as the criteria without the Iif statment that works fine.
Can anyone help? I have a table with the following: Booked with a y/n field Person Name with a text field So... Yes(True) Jim Yes(True) Jim No(False) Jim
What I need is to be able to show a query that shows if the checkbox is ticked (True) and the Name is Jim total up how many true items there are. So from the above I can see that Jim has 2 true items. I would then like this shown in a text box is this possible? Also, it is not always going to be a person called Jim so... (From above) Yes(True) Jim Yes(True) Jim No(False) Jim Yes(True) Jack
So how would this go on a query in a sub form? So Name Jim would show 2 and Jack would show 1? At the moment is is grouping the name and I dont want that. Any ideas Cheers
This should be really simple, but I am stumbling on the criteria. I have a combo box which returns "Y" or "N". I'm using this value as criteria for a field called [Planned=Y/N]. This field stores either a "Y" or a "N" to indicate that a network outage was planned or not. If the combo box is "Y" I want to return all values(Y and N). If the combo box is "N" I only want to return values of "N". I've tried the following in the criteria without the desired affect:
IIf([Forms]![frmOutagemenu]![cboflag]="Y","","N") - only returns records when "N" is selected.
IIf([Forms]![frmOutagemenu]![cboflag]="Y",null,"N") - only returns records when "N" is selected.
IIf([Forms]![frmOutagemenu]![cboflag]="Y",In("Y","N"),"N") - too complicated for Access to decode.
Is there another way to return nothing for the criteria when "Y" is selected?
I run various queries on a daily basis for multiple date ranges (previous day, week to date, month to date, and year to date). The below criteria allows me to get WTD numbers but it has a flaw. When I run the reports on Monday, this criteria gives me Sunday and Monday's data when I actually want the previous week's data. Does anyone know of an iif statement that basically, says, "If today is Monday, give me last week's data, else give me wtd of the current week?" Right now, I manually change the criteria on Monday morning to hard code the dates and then revert to the formula on Tuesdays but I need to have this completly automated because there are a large number of queries and I don't have time to change them all. Thanks for the help!
Hi! When it rains, it pours, right? I'm wondering if any of you know of a way to count true statements...
What I mean is, I have a query where I have a series of 5 different OR statements, meaning I want to see records with either a min. ed. number, or a years of experience number, etc...
The query returns every record with at least one of the criteria being met. What I need is to count the statements that are true for one record. Let's say I have someone who meets all of the OR criteria, I need a way to count the number of criteria that they met. Is there a way to do this? Maybe with a crosstab query??? Thanks!!
I have 3 queries that pull from 3 dfferent tables. All 3 tables contain a field called Acct but the other fields in the 3 tables are different. What I would like is to have a form field that the user can input an account number and depending on which query the account number is in, that query and result will display. I have been trying the dlookup function but can't seem to get the coding down. Also, if the account number is not in any query I would like a message box to display saying it can't be found. Thanks for any help!

I have a database with 3 tables. Each table has an account number field however the tables are completely different as are the account numbers that populate them. To go with the tables are queries that will bring in desired information. What i would like is for the user to input an account number on a form and have some code in the background that will find the account number in the table it is in and open the corresponding query. Is this possible? Thanks for the help. I have been trying to write code with DLookup but can't seem to get it to do what I want.
New to Access, and having a heck of a time learning it...or rather learning how to correctly design databases.
All my expertise is with Excel. I'm creating a project where I use Excel to parse a non comma delimited text file, then feed certain figures into an Access database. This is all through VBA.
It wasn't until yesterday that I realized I had a problem. There are two text files with data that makes up one complete record. With what I already have built, and with what I have tought myself (ADO w/ VBA wise) I tought the easiest solution would be to create two tables that will hold the data from each respective text file. This is what I'm working with:
A store has a department with 5 areas of measurement that is collected daily. One complete record would be like this:
Date | Store | Dept | Sales | Cust Count | Item Count | Avg Price | Mix
...and there are (right now) 3 stores and 15 departments that are watched in this project. What I came up with for a table design was this. Fields with an "!" prefix reflects primary keys.
Table1 (using data from txt file 1): !Date | !Store | !Dept | Sales | Mix Table2 (using data from txt file 2): !Date | !Store | !Dept | Cust Count | Item Count | Avg Price
In each table, I have to have a compound primary key to make up what is a unique record. I just learned I could use a compound index and an autonumber as my primary key. Either way, I'm using the 3 primary keys in each table with a 1 to 1 relationship. This seems to work if I make a query.
Now, will the way I did it hold up? Is there a better, more correct way to do it?
I have a query that shows banned users (I work in a school). When a student's ban has ended, a tick box is checked in a form linked to tblBannedUsers to show they are no longer banned.
The query itself simply queries all records in tblBannedUsers with a username field (UserID) taking search criteria from a box on a form.
However, I want to filter out the students that are no longer banned (those with a tick in the checkbox). To do this, I thought it would be a simple case of editing the query, and in the Ban Lifted field criteria, use =False to say I only want those records with a tick.
This doesn't work and I still get all records given the combo box filter (which are just filtering for a username...if I leave it blank it gives all records via Is Null).
What should I be putting in the criteria to filter out those records with a ticked checkbox?
Thanks,
Steve Swallow
EDIT: I've just done a test query and <B>No</B> is the criteria to use, but when I use this criteria in my query which also take data from a form's combo box it ignore the <B>No</No> criteria.
I need a help. I have one table that has a field called "Initial ZIP CODE", another field called "Final ZIP CODE", and a field called "AREA".
I have a data base that will give me the specific "ZIP CODE", that will be between the "Initial ZIP CODE" and "Final ZIP CODE", and I want to get the "AREA".
Hi, in my web page, i would like to user to see a ticked checkbox should the database = True however, i cannot seems to be getting it. Would anybody be able to help me out?
strSQL = "SELECT DeptHeadA FROM Employee WHERE EmpId = '" & strEmpId & "'" nRecDHA = GetRecordset(strSQL, arrDHA)
if arrDHA(0,i) = True then arrDHA(0,i) = "Checked" else arrDHA(0,i) = "" end if
Hi, the syntax is of iif is that iif(case, true, false) right. In my case I have role_ID to filter so my iif statement is something like iif([role id] = "1", "2" or "3") But it does not work, I don't know why iif([role id] = "1", "2") It works. So I think OR statement is something wrong.What should I do in this case?
Hey all, i got another small problem with this bloody database!
The problem today folks is this, im making a booking system (well the booking is a small part of the overall system) so i have DateArrive, RoomID, and all the usual.
now what i want is to make a query that says if DateArrive & RoomID (Booking Table) then make RoomOccupied(Room Table) true
if that makes sense, i tried some in sql and got the date bit working, but wasn't sure how to go further so as to make it so RoomID is involved
(ill say in another way If a room is booked on a specific day i want to make Occupied true)
Is it possible to filter a forms records by using a boolean True/False field. I want to show all current records for option 1, Expired records for option 2, and all records for option 3. The form is based on 'tblMembers' which has a field [Expired] which is a boolean yes/no field formatted to true/false.
This is another feature I would like to add to my Haunted Labyrinth worker database that I am developing. I have attached the db so that anyone can take a look at the structure.
I have a Roster table that includes a Checkbox called B4L (Banned for Life) that is checked if this worker is not allowed at the Labyrinth anymore. I have a form to sign in workers for that specific night. The Rowsource for the worker field is:
SELECT [RosterID], [LastName] & ", " & [FirstName] & " " & [Phone] FROM Roster ORDER BY [LastName] & ", " & [FirstName];
What I am trying to accomplish: If a worker's B4L checkbox is set to True, I want a MsgBox to come up warning the staff person that this Worker is Banned for Life. The name should then not be written to the table.
On form1 I have a command button to open form2. Before opening form2 I open form2 first in design mode to add an extra command button to form2 using the following code:
Dim ctl As Control Set ctl = CreateControl(FormName, acCommandButton, , , , 100, 100)
I want to set this newly created command button to Transparant = True. During normal "interactive" design you can set Transparant to Yes in the dialog box. But whereas coding like
ctl.Caption = "New button" ctl.Name = "MyButton"
works fine, the code
ctl.Transparant = True
gives an error like "This property or method is not supported by the object"
I have a report which i am trying to format, I want every other row's details to alternate colour which i have done (See below)
I also have on my report, a checkbox and a text feild (not sure if i could use a rectangle and format that instead , it doesn't do anything i just need it to change colour)
chkbox name = "chkClean" Text box name = "txtclean"
I just want the back colour to go red if the check box is true and white if the check box is false
Please help

Can I generate an IIf statement with two-true values? I have these two statements but don't know how to combine them:
IIf((Weekday(date);1)=vbMonday or vbTuesday or vbWednesday or vbThursday or vbFriday;x;””) IIf((Weekday(date);1)=vbSaturday or vbSunday;y;””)
I have at field with a date and will like the true statement to be “x” if the data is Monday-Friday and “y” if the date are a Saturday or Sunday and if the date field is blank, I want to have a blank field here as well.
I have tried:
IIf((Weekday(date);1)=vbMonday or vbTuesday or vbWednesday or vbThursday or vbFriday;x;y)
There are around 100,000 records to update. Would a SQL Statement be more efficient?
It is a local table being used to sum up the results of a handful of rules. The columns can only hold True or False (datatype) If and only if all columns are True - then true
MyRow T T T T T T T T T T - Sum in next column is T MyRow T T T T T T F T T T - Sum in next column is F
Speed is very important. The Recordset for a single row is still open on the Currrent Record since the Update just finished.
Code: RS_RE_1SegStatusProfiled.Fields("Total") = (RS_RE_1SegStatusProfiled.Fields("RE_1") AND CStr(RS_RE_1SegStatusProfiled.Fields("RE_2") AND (RS_RE_1SegStatusProfiled.Fields("RE_3") ' and so on
My guess is that since the recordset is open to the current record on a local table, it will be efficient to just re-read all of the values and And them together.
Since I have code writing to each record, I could also go through all the extra assignment of a local variable.
