Im having problem with my database, i have managed to set up a calcualtion so it does the sub total thanks to a query, however i want the information to be displayed in a text box on the original form. Is there anyway i can transfer the ammount over to the original forms text box?
Any help would be appreciated
What I would like to do is create a list box that will only display the information from another form that is related to the current form.So I have a form call Equipment Catalog and that form is related to Equipment features 1 to M relationship and the Equipment Features is related to a Features form M to 1.
So what I want to do is display all the related equipment features in a listbox that is related to the current PK of that form.So if there is only one feature on one form the list box will only display that one item however is there is 6 features on another it will display all 6.I have been trying SQL and Queries but I still can't get it to work.
Hey guys,
Bit of a nightmare, put loads of information into my database, and when i look in the table all information is still there but can not get it to be displayed in my form, what has gone wrong??
I have forms in a database that I am looking at. How can I tell which table the forms are connected to?
Easiest thing, I know. Help much appreciated.

I am attempting to place a label on the top of a tabbed form and I am having a problem. Here are the important parts of my database:
tblInstructors
InstructorID Autonumber PK
RankID FK to tbl Ranks
LastName
FirstName
tblRanks
RankID Autonumber PK
Rank
I have a tabbed form with a combo box for RankID and text boxes for FirstName and LastName. Obviously there is more information than this on this form, it is tabbed and I would like a label on top of the form that shows the name and rank of the person's record that is being edited or viewed while the user is on another tab. Normally I would use =[RankID] & "" & [FirstName] & "" & [LastName], however this isn't working since the RankID control is passing the Autonumber from tblRanks instead of the actual rank (yes this is military rank abbreviation). For example I get the number six instead of TSGT. I need to find a way to show the text value instead of the autonumber that represents it.
I have searched to the best of my abilities to find anything on this forum about this as I am sure it has come up before but have been unable to find anything.
I have couple of forms where...The users enters a name of the river where he/she was fishing in, I also have an option where the user can browse for previous entered rivers.I am wondering how this works, how do I let the information entered go automatically into the browse section and how can I prevent from duplicates will appear in the browse for previous entered rivers. thanxp.s is this something that I will work with in the table it self or can I change this in the form ???

I have previously posted this on another message board with no responses. I am hoping that someone here can help.
I have a form that has several subforms. The forms are linked Child to Master using a Company Name Contol. In the table where the Company Name is set up, it is not indexed.
It is not a primary key. When the EU (in test) enter data with the company name a second time (a second record for the same company), all the information in the first record populates the second record. If any changes are made to the second record, then it is also reflected as changed in the first record. I hope that I am clear in my explanation. What have I done to cause this?

I've got a form that has certain information and I would like to be capable of clicking on a button entitled "add a client". When that button is pressed I would like another form to open and provide a search query asking for the client's name. When I hit okay I want a list of clients to be viewed based on a partial search. Once I have found the one I want I want to be able to click/do something to get me back to the original form. At this time, all the client information all will be put on the form and introduced to that particular table row.
If you have any questions regarding what I just said please ask.
Thanks in advance,

Okay, here's a question that should hopefully be simple. I have a form that I am setting the default value of two text boxes based on the form previous. Here's basically the rundown of what happensfrmForm1Input Month: FebruaryInput Year: 2012OK - Opens frmForm2 and then closes this one---------frmForm2Month_Default_Value: #Name?Year_Default_Value: 2012---------And this always happens for every month and every year. So could you tell me what could possibly be wrong with my "Month" default value? Here's the code...Private Sub Form_Load()Month_Query = [Forms]![frmStatementDialog]![Month]Year_Query = [Forms]![frmStatementDialog]![Year]Me.Month.DefaultValue = Month_QueryMe.Year.DefaultValue = Year_QueryEnd SubThanks!--Mike
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a patient information database which uses a filtered form to show records for only one patient at a time. All the records in the database are linked together using one number, the patient's unique identifier.
I have designed a report which draws information from separate tables and generates a complete summary of information. This report depends on having the ID number of the patient to generate the report.
Originally, I had envisioned having a command button on the data entry form, which would then automatically take the ID number from the form, and generate the report. Though good in theory, it never worked out in practice, as I could never figure out how to make it happen.
Is there a way to design a macro or some other thing that would take the ID number from the field on the form, and use it to generate the report? Currently, I have it configured to prompt me for the ID number. When I enter it manually, the report is generated perfectly.
Thank you in advance,
I have created Form1 with a button and after I click the button Form2 appears (frm_Rollover_Progress). Form2 is a (poor mans) progress indicator that makes some labels visible after a section of a query has run. I have set the first label on the form to Me.lblProgress1.Visible = True but I keep coming up with Compile Error - Method or data member not found. However, when I put a button on the second form and copy in the exact same code then Me.Label1.Visible = True works. I have tried to SetFocus to an item on Form2 but still does not work.
'Open progress form to show progress indicator
DoCmd.OpenForm "frm_Rollover_Progress", acNormal, , , acFormReadOnly
'Add current changes to Total Changes table
Me.lblProgress1.Visible = True
Me.Label1.Caption = "10%"
DoCmd.OpenQuery "qry_Change_AddedQX2", acViewNormal, acAdd
Me.lblProgress2.Visible = True
Me.lblProgress3.Visible = True
Me.Label1.Caption = "30%"

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a form with payment information and need a list, what date the payments are due. These can be only 2 or 3 payments up to maybe 24 payments. The result I want is something like this:
Date Amount Total paid
1.7. 500.00 500.00
1.8. 500.00 1,000.00
The list itself is not a problem, but I need a list who only shows the number of payments as agreed, 2 lines (with paydates) if 2, 12 if 12 payments. I have the information of the total amount, the number of installments and the first payment date.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm making a customer survey database. Also be aware I'm not proficient with access.
All the customer information is being imported from an excel spreadsheet. That will include ServiceRecordID, ServiceDate, TechID, CustName, ServLocation, PhoneNum, and DeptID.
Another table will include records for answers to 5 questions that will be asked by a manager on the phone. That table is called TblQuestions. This table will also have ServiceRecordID to go with the answers.
What I'm trying to do is create a Form that at the top has a box for ServiceRecordID. I'd like to be able to type in the Number for that ID, and then all the information shows up on the form for that specific ID. And below all that, fields to add the answers to TblQuestions for that specific ServiceRecordID.
The reason I'm doing this is because the manager will get a report with the customer information that needs a follow up call. So I want them to be able to call up that information on the screen with the ServiceRecordID number, and also be able to add in the information that they get back from the customer with the questions that will be asked.
I don't know why I'm having so much trouble with this. But I'm not experienced with access or VBA both.
Hi there
This im sure is an easyone to most of you but for me I cant find away around my problem!!
I have a form I use to enter infomation and I have also made a report that I am trying to get the infomation from the form onto the report.
I would like to have a command button on the form that once I click it, it then prints out the report.
How do I get the information from a form to a report as when I have tried doing this myself it only allows me to use information from a query or table.
Any suggestions would be great for this newbie!!!
Thank you
Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me.
I have a simple database, consisting of two tables and one form. I'd like the form to display information mainly from the first table (table 1). For this, I have used the Form Wizard, which works well and displays as it should. My problem comes when trying to display data from table 2, without using the Form Wizard.
I have a simple field called 'Number' in 'Table 2'. I'd like this value displayed in a text box along with table 1's data. I've tried using the expression builder, which gives me something along the lines of:
[tbl_Table 2]![Number]
But this is displayed as:
#NAME
...when I open the form. Could anyone explain how I do this correctly please? All I'm trying to do is display data from other tables in the form.
Any help is much appreciated.
Hello
I have made a form based on a query that pulls information from 4-5 tables. I would like to be able to change information in those 4-5 tables by using that form, but I am unable to do it. I opened up the properties for the form and set "data entry" and "Allow edits" and "allow additions" and "allow subtractions" all to YES. That didn't help.
Is it possible to do this, since the form is based on a query? I couldn't figure out a good way to set up the form getting the information directly from the four tables. I'm not sure why it's been so difficult.
I have one table full of all of the various titles I have. The tables are related using those titles, and each table has a different sort of information for each record. So, the "main" table is "ALL TITLES," but when I go make a form, I can't get ALL TITLES to be the controlling table. It's very frustrating. But a query works beautifully--I just can't change anything.
(I would like to have the form be a "user-friendly" way for people to make changes.)
Thanks for your help.

I have a form that shows a subform at the bottom which displays all the corrsponding jobs so that an individual can make the current master form display the specific job information. My problem is I would like the subform list not to display the current master's job as one of the listed ones.
Example:
I have made an order for today and tomorrow. Im looking at the order for today and I see the list of all the jobs I did which is two on the subform. I would like the subform not to display today's job since I am already in it.
I have created a form and a subform within it, I have managed to populate all the dropdown boxes from the tables I need. but I need to save all the information in putted to a table called bookingstbl and I do not know where to begin?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a form that is used for data entry; from there I want to create a new form where I can select a field from a combo box which would generate the amount associated.
Example on the first form it has a Carpenter that has a calculated output of $1000, on the second form I would want to click on the combo box and pick carpenter and I would like the calculated field to be shown next to it.
I tried making an if statement on an unbound box but I found it difficult
=IIf([Combo2]=Building Service Engineer, =[Forms]![Estimate]![Text787],IIf([Combo2]=Carpenter,
=[Forms]![Estimate]![Text788],IIf([Combo2]=Custodian,
=[Forms]![Estimate]![Text789],IIf([Combo2]=Custodian - Shift Pay (5am - 6am) ,
=[Forms]![Estimate]![Text790],IIf([Combo2]=Drafting Technician,
[Code] ......
[Text787]-[Text805] are fields from the first form, these are calculated fields that multiplies wages quantity etc.
Also [Combo2] wont let me pick any data that I typed in.
I have a Table with Emp_ID and Details of my Employees. I have created a query and set parameter [Enter Emp_ID]. When I pull up a report, I get a pop-up and it asks me for the Emp_ID. When I input same, I get the information I need. Everything is good so far...
My Question... I have designed a report when user will need to enter Emp_ID and click on a button and they will get the report "EMPReport" without having the pop-up window asking for EmpID.
I have been using the below code but I get the pop-up again and I need to enter the Emp_ID again to view the report
See below Code:
Code:
Private Sub Image11_Click()
If IsNull(Me.Emp_ID) Or Me.Emp_ID = "" Then
MsgBox "You must enter an Emp ID.", vbOKOnly, "Required Data"
Me.Emp_ID.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
DoCmd.OpenReport "Rpt_HR1", acViewPreview, , "[Emp_ID]= " & "" & Me!Emp_ID & ""
End Sub
