I am new to access and am having troubles figuring out if statements. I want an if statement in a table that says if column 1 = "whatever" then column 2 = "YAY" else column 2 = "NO".
How would I apply this to a table?
Also I have a table that has one column it is a list of codes. In another table there are 2 columns column 1 has a code i want column 2 to say if column 1 code is found in the list of codes from the other column the put "MATCH FOUND"
Is there a way to execute two statements in one query in access? I tried the following but received the following: "Characters found at the end of the SQL statment".
Here is what I have in my qryUpdateRecords file:
"UPDATE dbo_CE, tblCE_Details SET tblCE_Details.LIC_NUMBER = [dbo_CE].[LICENSE_NUM], tblCE_Details.Credit_Hours = [dbo_CE].[CREDIT_HOURS], tblCE_Details.Course_Sponsor = [dbo_CE].[COURSE_SPONSOR], tblCE_Details.Course_Name = [dbo_CE].[COURSE_NAME], tblCE_Details.Auth_Code = [dbo_CE].[AUTH_CODE], tblCE_Details.Category = [dbo_CE].[CATEGORY], tblCE_Details.Course_Date = [dbo_CE].[COURSE_DATE], tblCE_Details.ImportDate = Now() WHERE ([dbo_CE].EXPORT_TIMESTAMP IS NULL ) ; UPDATE dbo_CE SET([dbo_CE].EXPORT_TIMESTAMP = NOW() WHERE ([dbo_CE].EXPORT_TIMESTAMP IS NULL);"
I'm trying to run an if statment, on the records in a field (called "Current_Month"), in an existing table called ""Current_Months_Lag1_Data".
The IF statements work fine - and simply perform a different action for different data in "Current_Month".
I am having problems referring to "Current_Month", where I keep getting 424 (Object required) and 3420 (Object invalid) error messages, on the last line of code.
I have defined & identified the table in which the field is located, yet somehow cannot identify the field within that table. (I've already tried searching the web for similar problems under error messages 424 & 3420).
Function LAG_Forecast_03() Dim dbs As Database Set dbs = CurrentDb Dim Tbl As TableDef Set Tbl = CurrentDb.TableDefs("Current_Months_Lag1_Data") Dim FLD As Field Set FLD = Tbl![Current_Month]
Column A Column B Column C Column D 1*010101001000000 CF 5 010101002000000 RF 010101002000000 RF 010101029000000 CU 1*010101001000000 CF 10 010101351010000 RF 2*010101354000000 CF 11 2*010101354000000 CF 13 010101358000000 CY 1*010101001000000 CF 5 010401328100000 CF
NOTE in the actual data won't be there it is just to show you what I am referring to.
Is there any way in another column in a query to say if Column A repeats itself somewhere else in Column A AND if those two that are repeated both have a "CF" code add column C (which is just an amount for each number)
So for example in this data there are 2 numbers that repeat themself that have CF codes. For these I would need to total them in column D for the first number resulting in:
Column A Column B Column C Column D 1*010101001000000 CF 5 20 010101002000000 RF 010101002000000 RF 010101029000000 CU 1*010101001000000 CF 10 010101351010000 RF 2*010101354000000 CF 11 23 2*010101354000000 CF 13 010101358000000 CY 1*010101001000000 CF 5 010401328100000 CF
Hello, I am using an IIF statement in my SQL criteria, and was wondering "if" it was still possible to reference a column within a combo box... here is one iif statement
Like IIf(IsNull([Forms]![fSampleSearch]![cboCustomerName]),"*",[Forms]![fSampleSearch]![cboCustomerName])
I want to refer to the third column of cboCustomerName... How would I do this ?
Just a quick question, I can't seem to get this right (as usual :confused: )
I have a form and I want the label in the header to display the text from a field in a related subform. I have tried the following syntax to no avail: =[Forms]![sfrmCompanyName]![LastName]
I know how to refer to a control on a form by using [forms]![formname]![controlname], but can anyone help with referring to a subform.
I have a subform called subPrograms, on which is a combo box whose contents need to be filtered depending on the selection from another combo box on the main form.
The combo box on the main form is cboDivisions. The combo box on the subform is cboPurchasers Main form is called frmMain Subform is called subPrograms
The user is supposed to select a Division, and then depending on that selection the contents of cboPurchasers will change to only show those that are within that same division.
I would also like to know how to update the cboPurchasers when the cboDivision has been selected? Can someon help?
I'm trying to write a formula/program that will look at a table, look at the date of each record, and sort out and group the records by week (in this case, Sat.-Friday). However, in order to do this, I'm assuming that I must be able to have the program look at, not only the date of the current record, but also the date of the records before and after the current one. What would be the easiest and most efficient way of writing the references? Thanks!
I have obtained some VB code shown below which adds an icon to the windows task bar as I intend to put some additional code behind this that displays messages near the clock when something happens in the database. The problem I have is that the code does add an icon but the icon is literally blank. i.e. it makes an additional icon space but does not display any picture. The code is not actually for VBA so I need to tweak it. I am struggling with telling it which icon to display. Does anyone know how to refer to the application icon using code??
The code I am working on is: (there is also a module but I will post this if you need it.) -------------------------------
Private Sub AddTrayIcon()
Dim nid As NOTIFYICONDATA
' nid.cdSize is always Len(nid) nid.cbSize = Len(nid) ' Parent window - this is the window that will process the icon events nid.hWnd = frmSystray.hWnd ' Icon identifier nid.uID = 0 ' We want to receive messages, show the icon and have a tooltip nid.uFlags = NIF_MESSAGE Or NIF_ICON Or NIF_TIP ' The message we will receive on an icon event nid.uCallbackMessage = 1024 ' The icon to display nid.hIcon = frmSystray.Icon ' Our tooltip nid.szTip = "Always terminate the tooltip with vbNullChar" & vbNullChar
' Add the icon to the System Tray Shell_NotifyIconA NIM_ADD, nid
' Prevent further adding cmdAddIcon.Enabled = False End Sub
Private Sub cmdAddIcon_Click() AddTrayIcon End Sub
-------------------------
This is the code that is the problem. I dont think VBA has this function so I need to tell it where to find the .ico file I use for my database. Thanks folks.
How can I refer to a form by using its index number? Also how can I retrieve an index number of a form?
(I'm opening multiple instances of the same form and read that the only way to refer to those instances is by using their index number. I found some solutions that use hWnd as well but I can't get any further support on it as far as referring to a form by using the window handle so I'm trying to capture and then use the index number)
A main form - named [formMain] On [formMain] I have a tab control - named [tabMain] [tabMain] has 3 pages named [pageOne], [pageTwo] and [pageThree]. On [pageThree] I have created a subform named [formSub]. On [formSub] there is a tab control named [tabSub].
Now what I would like is to make [tabSub] (in)visible if the user switches from [pageOne] or [pageTwo] to [pageThree].
Code: Sub tabMain_Change()
How do I refer to [tabSub] from within this subroutine? I am trying something like:
The [ItemsID] is actually on the form as a txt box. but i dont really need it there for any other purpose other than the vba above.
In the form i have a field that is in the form as a txt box that has a relationship to the ItemsID. i have attached a image of the relationship.
The field that is in the form is tblOrdersItems.OrdersItemsID and i also have tblItems.Items. so rather than adding another meaningless txt box to the form(ItemsID) i would like to be able to use the relationships to get the correct ItemID ...
I want my subform to allow additions. I would like the default value for one of the fields in the subform to be the value chosen in the combo box that is used to select which records are shown in the subform. The row source for the combo box is
SELECT tblLicensee.LicenseeID, tblLicensee.[Licens#] FROM tblLicensee; where LicenseeID is the key field and Licens# is what is displayed.
If I refer to the combo box for the default value for that control on the form… =[Forms]![frmFindRecord]![Combo37]
the key value (LicenseeID) is entered as the default instead of the value displayed in the combo box (Licens#). How can I set the default value to record the Licens# instead?
I have a form which contains fields from my main table and also has a subform containing a query based on a filtered list of my main table.
I have a combobox on the form to select a name and pass it to the query to filter on.
The list of names is in a table called tblnames which has 2 fields, name and ID. I have linked the ID field on this table to a field called nameid on my main table which is a numeric field (and that allows be to select a name from a list when I enter data into my main table.
The xox is unbound, control source empty and row source set to tblname.
The combobox is only showing a list of numbers (I assume they are the id field from tblname). Yesterday I had the list of names showing and I checked a backup and the only difference I can see is the row source property refers to the name field in tblname but I don't know how I got it there. When I click on the list box for row source I only get offered a list of my objects.
I have a simple date stamp that works great in a private sub within a form. (error handling removed for clarity)
Code:
Private Sub btnDateStamp_Click() ' UserInit is global variable Me!Notes.SetFocus Me!Notes = Chr$(13) & Date & " - " & Time() & " - " & UserInit & _ " -" & vbCrLf & Me!Notes
[code]...
I am rewriting it as Module function that is Called from various forms, to save space. The function receives the parameters varFormName and varControlName. I wish to write the results of the function back to a memo field on the form.I am stumped at the get go by the need to refer to the Forms controls with a full reference instead of the Me command.
Code:
Function DateStamp(varFormName As String, varMemoName As String) 'varInitials, varFormName, varMemoName are global variables Forms!varFormName.Controls!varMemoName.SetFocus ' Error here 'Me!Notes = Chr$(13) & Date & " - " & Time() & " - " & varInitials & _
[code]...
how to refer to the forms control's with their full reference, from within the Module's function, the rest will fall into place.
I am trying to use a calculated field in a recordset but I am having problem with the script trying to compile.
my record set is
Set rstPrice = db.OpenRecordset("SELECT Period_desc, Price, Round(Price/7,2) AS Daily_rate FROM qryPropertyPriceList WHERE [Our ref] = '" & rstProp![Our Ref] & "' And [Year] = " & rstProp![Next year price base] & " Order By Sequence", dbOpenSnapshot)
The calculated filed I have added in is Round(Price/7,2) AS Daily_rate
If I let it run just with this it runs fine.
and then I try to use this calculated field:
Do Until rstPrice.EOF Temp = Temp & rstHTML!html35 & rstPrice!Period_desc & rstHTML!html36 & rstPrice![Price] & "-" & rstPrice![Daily_rate] & rstHTML!html37 rstPrice.MoveNext Loop rstPrice.Close ' Tidy up Set rstPrice = Nothing
They it stops running and it all seems to be because of the Daily_rate field
I have a form with a subform that has a table on it. The subform table is a price list with the fields Description, Details (which is hidden as it's too big for the table) and Price.
I want to be able to double-click on a chosen item from the table to display a pop-up showing the same details but with the Details field shown. I have the pop-up in place but I am struggling with displaying the chosen information.
How do I reference the fields on the chosen line in the table?
I have a form named frmMain that contains five buttons that lead to subforms, one of which is named frmDeceased.
In frmDeceased, I needed to create a combo box that relied on selections from the combo box before it. I was able to do this successfully in frmDeceased, but then today when I opened the database and opened frmMain, I realized that the query fails when frmDeceased is opened via frmMain. It works perfectly if I just open frmDeceased directly.
The first combo box is ROHE and the second is Iwi (which is dependent on the Rohe selected).
The query for Iwi has this criteria: Forms!frmDeceased!cbo_ROHE
When I open frmDeceased through frmMain, I get the 'enter parameter value' message showing "Forms!frmDeceased!cbo_ROHE".
I tried changing this query to: Forms!frmMain!frmDeceased!cbo_ROHE, but it didn't work.
Access is telling me it can't find the record and from what I have tested it seems to be the Update line, not the where line. I am basing the set portion as equals a query - could this be causing the problem? Or can code be based on a query?
I have a query[view] where I have six employee numbers, I left join these to an Employee table to retreive the names.
I've created a report that uses this query/view as its source. For some reason my report keeps making all six name fields refer to the same control source Employee.Name and not Employee_1.Name, Employee_2.Name, Employee_3.Name,.... respectively.
In design view everything looks fine but when I switch to report view the switch happens, it displays the same name in all fields. When I switch back to design view all of the fields have changed to the same control source.
why this is happening? My tables are in a SQL server.
I have an Access 2010 application and I'm having trouble referring to properties in my subform withon a Navigation form. Based on a selection in a Combo Box, I need to change the filter on the subform. The relevant forms are:
Main Navigation Form = frmAdminNav "Standard" Navigation Subform = NavigationSubForm My Subform = frmShowInventory
How do I refer to the Filter property on frmShowInventory?
So I have a list box that lists organizations. I recently changed the list box type to extended multi select. On the same form, I have a button that opens a new form where the user can input contacts for each organization. When the list box was not multi select, the expression [forms]![media]!
[List30] made the default value of one of the fields in my contact form the bound column from the selection in the list box. However, now that the list box is multi select, the contact input form does not seem to be able to get the value from the bound column in the list box. When multi select is turned on, is the bound column stored differently.
To even get the contact input button to work, I had to change the code from:
Private Sub Command40_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Command40_Click Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String stDocName = "Contactsqry" stLinkCriteria = "[Organization ID]=" & Me.List30
Any way to list all currently opened Access databases? It feels like this must be possible by referring to the databases collection, but I just don't know how.
Also, is it possible to refer to controls on a form in one open database from code in another database? (and obviously if so, how?)
I have a form with a subform which resides in a tabbed control. In that subform, I have a textbox in the footer that sums values in the detail section of the subform.
I have a textbox on my main form that should display the same data that is in my subform footer textbox, but it is giving me the #name? error.
This is the expression in my subform footer textbox (which returns the correct result):
TxtSubtotalHQPCalc - =Sum([ActualHQPCalc])
And the expression in my main form textbox (which returns #name?):
I have verified that my subform name and textbox names are all accurate. This is very frustrating because I am using this exact same method in a different database with no problems!
