Insert New Record Disable

Sep 27, 2007

Hiya,

I've inherited an Access 2003 database, a rather complex one. The database has a login, with the credentials stored in a table which I can view (minus the pass, which is masked). Of course, for security reasons, I shouldn't be able to just add a record and create a new ID, in essence bypassing all security. As such, the table with the user records does not permit new records to be added. What steps need I take to add new records, the option being greyed out in the interface, no new record bar available at the bottom of the table.

Any insight is most appreciated.

Disable Record Navigation

Oct 16, 2006

Hi there I found alot of nice tips here, thanks for that :) But I havent found exactly what I am looking for. I will keep searching but I thought I would post as well.

Here is my problem : I have to design a form that works like an old application form written in VFP7.

Basically a combo box chooses a customer, another combo box filtered by customer chooses a job. A third combo box filtered by Jobs chooses a stock.

There is a subform linked by Stock_ID that displays details of the stocks, amounts, locations, etc...

I want to limit record navigation to these combo boxes. Right now even with navigation buttons hidden and limiting tab cycle to current record; a user can use the mousewheel and page up / page down keys to change the current record in Stock table and thus changing the details in my sub form.

Does anyone know of a way to stop all record navigation unless I explicitly move the record pointer via code behind the combo boxes?

I will keep looking around here and will likely play with the Current event to reverse any changes made to the record pointer but it does not seem the best way to handle this.

Thanks much :)

ps Im using Access 2003

Disable Combo Box After Select The Record.

Sep 20, 2006

Hi Everyone,

I want to try to restrict the user not always changing the record, so i need a Disable combo box command. And i did try it by using "Name.Enabled = False" after user select the value from the combo box, but the program won't let me do that because of the record is on focus. So what can i do? I only have an idea of after the user select the value from cbo then jump the cursor immediately to the second column, but anybody can tell me how to do that?
Thanks alot!

Regard,
alex

Disable Tool-Bar Menu - 'Delete Record'

Apr 20, 2006

Hello Everyone,
Before I pose my question I would first like to applaud and thank this forum for the excellent and timely help it has provided me so far. The assistance I have received to date, from you as members, and via the search facility has been extremely helpful particularly as I am new to this type of stuff�

My question is this...
I would like to disable users from selecting the 'Edit - Delete Record' facility from my main form upon its load. From searching the various forums I found a method upon which to disable the whole 'Edit' menu but not the specific 'Delete Record' function. Please accept my sincere apologies if this has already been posted but I simply cannot find it readily via a standard/refined 'search'. It might be the fact that I am phrasing the question incorrectly?? I don't want to severely restrict my users by disabling/hiding the whole menu but would rather limit them to accessing this option via a password protected command button?

What I have found so far.
Private Sub Form_Load()
CommandBars("Menu Bar").Controls("Edit").Visible = False
End Sub

Any assistance/guidance would be very much appreciated

Kind Regards � Best wishes to all of the registered site members

I am currently working on a database and I'm using a form to view the records. A standard Access behavior is to show an empty record (new record) as the last one. is there a way to disable this "feature". I would like my form to display only the records, which are really filled with data and not show the blank one at the end??

Thanx in advance

Disable Subform When Creating Record In Parent

Jul 27, 2004

I'm having difficulty controlling data entry to (disabling) a subform when a new record is being added to the parent form. I can set the subform to be disabled if there is no index value in the parent form (this allows the subform to function for existing records) but then the user has to create the parent record and move off of that record and then return to it in order to add child records to the subform. This is basically a create new records/data entry problem and I'm feeling pretty stupid. There must be a way to handle this...

Forms :: How To Disable Ability To Change A Record

Jan 17, 2014

I created a query that shows the Student ID, First Name, and Last Name.I then created a split form from the query.Finally I added an unbound text box called search with a button next to that has a macros within it:

Code:
[LastName] Like "*" & [Forms]![SearchID]![Text14] & "*" Or [FirstName] Like "*" & [Forms]![SearchID]![Text14] & "*"

1. I love that it searches for the name you type in and displays the record
2. What I don't like is that you can edit the record.

I tried to set the AllowEdit in the form properties to no but that also took away the ability to type in the search text box. Is there a way to allow typing in the text box but not allow changes in the record?

Apologies if this is an obvious one but is it possible to hide this:

I would rather use my own Next Record and Previous Record buttons so it would dieal to disable/hide these arrow buttons.

Many thanks for your assistance in advance,

Forms :: Disable Delete A Record Shortcut CTRL

Mar 24, 2015

I would like to disable the shortcut, CTRL - which allows a user to delete a record. A user accidentally deleted a record while typing in an email address that had an underscore in the email address. While trying to type it she must have hit the CTRL key instead of the Shift key follow by the -. She noticed the delete confirmation, but not thinking, pressed enter and thus confirmed the deletion of the record.

Other than telling her to pay more attention, how can I disable the shortcut in Access 2013?I tried using the Application.OnKey "^-", "" but I continue getting the error method or data member can not be found

Forms :: Disable / Enable Fields Not Working For A New Record

Aug 9, 2014

I have some code like this that sets some fields up to be disabled when the form loads, then enables them when a combo box ('Type') is selected to 'Instrument'. This works fine as far as it goes, but if the user has selected 'Instrument' and then goes to a new record, the fields remain enabled.

Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.CalibrationTolerance.Enabled = False
Me.AcceptanceLimit.Enabled = False
End Sub

[Code] ....

I've looked this up and it appears I need to use the property Form.NewRecord, but nothing I do seems to make it work.

Can't Insert A New Record

Nov 11, 2011

I am using an Access form that I created on an earlier version of Access and I have been able to insert (add) new records with this form and database.

Recently, I added some text, moved some text around on the form, and saved the form.

Sense my revisions, I am unable to insert (add) new records. (The "New" button in the software's header is grayed out.)

I have saved and compacted/repaired the form/database, but this did not solve my problem.

VBA - Insert A Record From One Table To Other?

Aug 15, 2014

In my VBA code, i am trying to move some table records from table1 to table2. Both table1 and table2 has exact structures.

In the INSERT statement for table2, what is the easy way to insert a record from table1? I am trying to avoid having to specify each field name in the INSERT statement. Because, i have 100 fields in table.

Is there a way to INSERT a particular record from table1 to table2 without having to specify field names in the INSERT statement like in below example?

INSERT INTO Employees " _
& "(FirstName,LastName, Title) VALUES " _
& "('Harry', 'Washington', 'Trainee');"

Cannot Insert A Null Value Into Table Record

May 2, 2007

Using the sql profiler gives me no clue.

This is the insert query from the profiler.

exec sp_executesql N'INSERT INTO "ENVIS_GSD".."wat_springflow" ("result_dt","site_id","result_va","remark_tx") VALUES (@P1,@P2,@P3,@P4,@P5,@P6)', N'@P1 datetime,@P2 int,@P3 float,@P4 nvarchar(4),@P5 varchar(3),@P6 datetime', 'Feb 10 2009 12:00:00:000AM', 3000723, 8.000000000000000e-001, N'test'

The two records that I get the proplem on are not included here, but somehow they have been updated. I traced the access code, but I could see no reference to them that they were used for the update in either the form or any modules called.

Somehow up to a few weeks ago those two columns were updated.

Tracing the code and using the immediate window the user_name variable stores the login name corectly.

Someone mentioned "error 28" any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Accessing ID Of Last Record Right After You Insert It Into Table

Apr 13, 2005

Hi folks,
I have an Append Query (Insert Into...) that I use to insert values into a table from a form. But to have that tie into other tables I need to gather the Student_ID (primary key) that is autogenerated when the record is inserted. How do I do this? I want to store it in a public variable. I've done quite a bit of searching but nothing of any value has turned up. Please help.

What I have on button press:
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Register Camp Students"

After that I need something to gather that newly inserted Student_ID and store it for later use. Please help!

Ciao,

Unbound Controls To Insert Record

Jun 12, 2006

Hi guys. I hope someone replies to this thread....I am struggling with this one.

I am developing an Asset Management System for our IT Equipment.
We wish to record the software installed on each PC.

The Manufacturer and Software names are stored in separate tables.
The AssetMain table has a one-to-many relationship with the AssetSoftware table.

I originally had a (continuous) subform for software on my main Asset form. However, as I am using cascading combo boxes (to filter the Software Combo by the Manufacturer) it mean that changing the combo on each record would appear to change the existing values too (common problem).

I would therefore like four unbound controls.
1) Combo Box - Manufacturer
2) Combo Box - Software Package
3) Combo Box - Package Edition
3) Text Box - Serial Number

When the user selects/enters these values and clicks an "Add" button I would like add a new record into the AssetSoftware table where Asset_ID = Parent.Asset_ID.

I will then have a list box that queries the software for that particular Asset. This will requery on each CmdAdd_Click.

Attached is a screenshot of what I would like to achieve (if I click Add it should add Microsoft Office XP to the list box below)

Would really appreciate some help (do not normally get many replies to my threads :( )

Thanks
BF

Insert New Record To An Autonumber Field?

Jan 31, 2005

So, I have a table with an autonumbered key field. I started the autonumbering at 1000 thinking that I may want to manually backfill some old records at a later date. Now I�m stuck.

Is there a way I can insert a new record into this table, filling this field as �950� for example?

Insert A Record To A Specific Spot

Aug 29, 2006

Creating a flight management database to create flightplans that determine local/zulu times and dates of each leg of the flight. Arrival and departure times are calculated by durations entered for flight time to get arrival information, and time on the ground to determine departure time/date.

My question, is there a way for the user to insert a record (leg) into an exisitng flight plan that they are editing? The legs are currently in order by an autonumber so inserting a new record would not necessarly put the legs in the correct order of the flight.

Currently, the user only needs to enter the airport identifier and air/ground time along with initial departure time/date. No dates are needed for each leg.

Thanks

Modules & VBA :: Dmax After Insert Record

Aug 8, 2013

after I insert a new record using INSERT INTO and then use DMax() (in a private sub) to look up the new record. About half the time DMax() pulls the new record based on the primary key field (AutoNumber) just fine. However, half the time it pulls the max record prior to the new record being inserted. I.e. record 1001 was added and DMax() pulls record 1000. I'm assuming that my issue has something to do with the timing of when the record is writen/saved in the table. Is there a simple method of refreshing the table that I can use prior to using DMax()?

Need To Insert Blank Rows If Record < 1000

Mar 24, 2005

Hello all!

I have a database that needs to post records that are joined from three different sources into a table. The query is done, and I get about 1,489 records out in 4 different states.

What I need to do is make a table with these records. Furthermore, it must be separated by state, whereas if there are less than 1000 records for each state, it must insert blank lines until it reaches then next thousandth (sp?) row (i.e. 1001, 2001, etc.), and then start posting the next state.

For example, AZ has 420 records. There has to be 580 blank lines before the query can start posting the next state, CA. At row 1001, CA starts posting, but there are only 200 records for CA so there must be another 800 blank lines before moving on to CO at row 2001, etc. etc.

Anyone have any ideas on this? Thanks!

Insert New Record In Ref Integrity Linked Tables

Sep 6, 2006

Hi All,

I hope somebody can help me on this.

I still use Access 97.

I have 4 tables that contain a vehicle registration number field as their primary key and have one-to-one referential integrity applied.

I want to add a new registration to all 4 tables from one query. How?

I've tried many permutations with no success, such as putting the registration on a new table and trying to apply this to the 4 RI tables. I keep getting ref intergrity violations. Obviously I could disable the ref integrity rules, update the tables and then reapply the rules, but this is not possible if I am going to make the database available to a user group. A new registration needs to be added seamlessly. By not having ref integrity could leave the DB in an inconsistent state.

Help! If what I want is not directly possible, then any work-round would be appreciated.

Thanks in anticipation

Richard
