Hi,
Am currently working on a project for AS IT. one problem that i need to come across is trying to see data in a field that comes from a query?!?! Confused?! so am i!
When i first open the form, a paremeter query appears asking me to insert a surname (which i have created) when i insert the surname....and click on the drop down button, it gives me three values...ForeName, Surname and class
When clicking on the pupils name, i want the Class of the student to be inserted into the Class Field!
Here is what I am trying to do. I have a query with 2 fields. "Time In" & "Time Out". What I would like to happen is this. Whenever a character, let's say a "t", is entered into that field I would like the current time to populate that field. Right now we are actually typing in the time. I have the fields set up as DateTime fields currently.
I have a form for entry and some fields are computed or result of a query from another table. I have a function that looks up a value from another table like so
************************************************** ******** Public Function GetTargetType() As Variant GetTargetType = DLookup("type", "tblFormulations", "[tblFormulations!formulation]=Forms![frmNmsConsumptionEntry]![formulation]") End Function ************************************************** ********
Which works fine when I test in the immediate window.Then I have this form event. This however does not insert this value when I am adding records using my continuous form.
************************************************** ******** Private Sub Form_BeforeInsert(Cancel As Integer) Me!target_group = GetTargetType() 'Forms!frmNmsConsumptionEntry!target_group = GetTargetType() '[tblNmsConsumption.target_group] = GetTargetType() End Sub ************************************************** ********
making sure I can insert this value once retrieved.
I have a form with many fields and one field has an OnChange event to run an insert query or log an entry in a table about the change. I get insert entry written with everything except one field.The OnChange event code is:
Code: If AddressStatusFld = 2 Then 'If it has changed from Current to Non-Current create a Contact Log entry for this matte If (Val([MatterShortNoFld]) Mod 2 = 1) Then Me.OperatorFld = 16
[code]....
I just can't work out why the record in MatterContactsMade table has a null value for the field Operator.
I have a form for member details that comes from the member table and I want to include a button on the form that will remove the member details from the member table to a member history table and then delete the details from the member table. When moving the record I also want to include details from another table called 'promotion', this table is linked to the member table via the member ID (Foriegn Key).
Firstly I want to know if this is possible and if so how I would achieve this. I am having trouble getting the SQL query to identify the current record that the form is displaying so I can select additional information and move it into the Member History table.
I've searched all over and can't seem to figure out an answer to this, so I'm putting it in front of the experts (who'll probably have a simple answer in about 10 seconds).
I'm doing a survey that has both radio buttons and check boxes. If it were all radio, it'd be easy, but the check boxes are making it complicated for me.
Here's the insertion code I'm working with: Code:SurveyInsert2 = "INSERT INTO data (answerID, surveyID) VALUES ('" & Request.Form(fld) & "', '" & currentsurvey & "')"oSurveyAdd.open SurveyInsert2, "dsn=survey" For Each fld in Request.FormoSurveyAdd.Execute(SurveyInsert2) Next which is spewing the answer: Code:Request object error 'ASP 0102 : 80004005'Expecting string input/survey_process.asp, line 44The function expects a string as input.
Hi, this dilemma really has me in a bind - say I have table1 and table2, when I enter data/update table1, I need to also enter the same data into table2. I know this sounds royally weird, but if there is a way to do this I would appreciate any and all help asap!
I have recently had to add a new field to a FIRM table in our contact database, Firm.PhoneNumber (please don't ask why it wasn't there before!). The primary key in this table is Firm.FirmID.
I have a list available to me in .csv format that contains all the phone numbers I need, it has two 'columns', labelled FirmID and PhoneNumber.
The process is surely a simple one, I just need to update/copy/insert the corresponding phone numbers from the csv file into the Firm.PhoneNumber field. I won't bore you with what I've attempted thus far but could someone please provide me with the quickest possbile method for achieving this task?
i have a problem adding the data from the fiels on the form into a table. I know you can just click on the navigation arrows and it will save the record but i want to use a submit button as this is more user-friendly and suitable for the work i'm doing.
I have attached the database... the form that needs the code for submit button is 'frmNew_JobStatus' and the table i'm trying to insert the data into is 'tblJobStatus'
can anybody have a look at what i've done so far and suggest how i can fix this... sample code would be very usefull as i'm not an access expert.
I want to design a form , please note I have beginners information regarding Access, I have 2 tables , 1 table has Project No, Document No, DEpt NO. with all the information
There is another table-2 with Project No, Document No. and Resourcrce. There is not data in this table
What I want to do is , I want to create a form where in I select the Project No. and Dept No. When I select these items the form should list me the data in Table 1 for that Project no and DEpt No. , after this data is listed , I will add the REsource data and all this data has to be stored in table-2. I hope some one will be able to guide me on how to do this.
when i am inserting data into table useing insert into statment i am getting one warning "do u want to append or not". what i can do to overcome this messeage.
I am new to Access and i am designing a payroll system for my company. I have created a Table with
EMP Id, Name, Basic Pay, Total Working Days, Actual Work Days, Earned Salary, OT days, OT Hrs, OT Pay..
Now i have created a form with all the above fields.and calculated the earned salary from the control source where Earned Salary= Basic pay / Total Working Days*Actual Work Days and OT Pay =[Basic Pay/Total Work Days/8]*150%*OT Hrs.
Now my problem is i am not able to populate the fields in the table.
i have the below code which inserts data and then i want to retrieve the value in the first two columns but firstly it says "you must use dbseechanges" but i have put this into the code you may see below,
Code: Dim db As DAO.Database Dim rs As DAO.Recordset dim sSQL as string
I am trying to read from an excel file that has the same format but changes data every day due to reports that I run from a different program. I just export them to this excel file called test.xls
What I want to do is import this data from the excel file and insert it into existing data in my table. I need to this every day.
Currently I cannot get the data to append. I can only insert the data once and cannot get it to append. I tried using macros, but think it would be better to use VB.
I am new to access (using Access 2003) and am having trouble working with forms. Here's what I want my form to do:
-Use a combo box to select a specific system -Given the selected system, pull up ID numbers and descriptions (in separate text boxes) from two separate tables corresponding to that one system -Navigate through those ID numbers/descriptions from each table independently to find ones that match -Store the ID numbers of the ones that match into another linking table
The biggest problem right now is being able to navigate through the different table ID numbers/descriptions and add both ID numbers to a row in a different table. I've tried using a combo box with the INSERT INTO statement into the code builder, but I keep getting syntax errors.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a better way to do this?
In the above example student 1234 has a missing record in year 2004 which supposed to be Term2 in the previous year (i.e. 003) and Term2 supposed to be Term1 value in the following year (i.e. 004). Similarly for student 3311
Hello everyone - what I have is a a set of default text's that I need to be able to insert into a memo field - this is how I've set it up (Access 2000)
A table with the text fields in it called wordings table comprises of Id field wordingnme (txt) wording (Memo) and I have a combo box on a form which looks up the wordingnme and hold this info - I need to have a button that will take this wordingnme and insert the wording that it relates to into the field of my record - Called Endor (memo)- I will have many text s say upto 50-60 but when I insert these into endor field I will probable only use say 5 or 6 at any one time on the record line so an example follows
line 45 in endor I wish to insert wordingnme "A" and then Wordingnme "B" I also will do some free form type within this - any idea's :eek:
In a Access 2003 database, I have an "Inscriptions" (subscription) database with a primary key on 2 fields idPersonnel (employee) and idSession. I have made a form so that user can select a session (in a listbox), then one or more employee (another listbox) and suscribe them to that session by using a button, which, on VBA side, first check that there is enough room on the session (defined by "MaxParticipants" field on "Sessions" table, linked to "Inscriptions" table on idSession), then insert data in "Inscriptions" table
This is working fine in a single-user environnement, but fails if 2 people want to join some employees on the same session at the same time, as I have a confirmation message between check and insertion. Therefore 2 users can select employees, get the confirmation message (at this point both are told there is enough room), resulting in having more people than expected joined to the session. Fortuneatly, if both users try to insert the same employee(s) to that table, one will get a duplicate error, but insertion will be made if employees are different.
On another DB engine, such as SQL server, I would use a stored procedure that would lock the table, do the check and the insertion then unlock the table.
But it does not seem to be possible in MS Access. What are the possibilities in MS Access to prevent a session from having more than maximum number of participants ?
I'd have thought this should work but it doesn't.I just get a "Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement".
My date field, called "Date" (just in case that's a problem!) in my database has no input mask defined, it's just a basic date/time field. I've tried replacing the '#' symbols with single quotes, and doesn't work either. I haven't had any luck finding a definitive example of how to do this, even though it's trivial surely. All the similar examples I've found talk about how to update a record set with a date, or how to set the system locale, etc.
Hi Guys, my first post hereim making a database for work and need to figure out the followingi have two people that uses a ms access db, each entering data.i made a custom macro in the vb editor:Public Function cUsername() cUsername = Environ("USERNAME")End Functionwhat i want to do now is, everytime a new entry is added in the table, it should add that username to the "user" cell... it should only do this once, so for example, when i enter data it will show "albert" and if i was to close it, login as "steve" it should still show "albert" under the ones i added, and not steve...this needs to be in the table not a query or form...thanks for your timeAG
I want to update an MS Access table date field with a blank date. How do I go about it? Right now, if the "dateAskFor_Funds" text field is blank, and I try to update the "AskFor_Funds_Date" field in the database, I get an error. That is why I don't do anything.
What expression should I use in the place of
intJunk = 1
in the code caption below.
Private Sub cmdUpdateApplication_Click()
Dim todaysDate Dim intJunk As Integer Dim rst As ADODB.Recordset
todaysDate = Date ' MyDate contains the current system date.
Set rst = New ADODB.Recordset rst.Open "EA_Apps_List", CurrentProject.Connection, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic … … … If IsNull(Me!dateAskFor_Funds) Or Me!dateAskFor_Funds = "" Then intJunk = 1 Else rst!AskFor_Funds_Date = Format(Me!dateAskFor_Funds, "Short Date") End If … … … Set rst = Nothing
I like to store SQL code as a memo field in a table. I then use a form to collect selection criteria from the user, and this is used to create a 'WHERE' clause which is then appended to the stored SQL. This has always worked, but in one recent case the SQL failed. On examination I discovered that although the SQL is correctly stored in the memo field, when Access retrieves the code it inserts a space character in the middle of one of the words, thereby of course creating an invalid SQL string. It's easy to work around it, but why this happens? A bug in Access?
I have a database with a form that has 3 fields in a subform. I need to paste there data from multi rows. Now I have to do this column by column and paying attention that I select them correctly. Is there a way to directly insert the data by selecting only 1 field and have the data directly there as it would in excel?
Now we use excel as a "between" road to paste it there and then copy it from excel and paste it into access.
I've got a table - "Products" - in my database, with a text field - "Info" - which contains info about products.
Within this field I would like to have footnotes. To do this, I think the best way to do it is by putting numbers inside the text at the location of where I want the footnote to refer to. These numbers will actually be foreign keys to a table called 'Footnotes'.
I can then program the forms and reports to show any numbers as superscripts or whatever.
(Of course, if the user will actually want to insert a number into the text field which is NOT a reference to a footnote, I will have to make a workaround e.g. by making access put a symbol in front of the number, so access will know the number is just part of the text (and I will program the form to not show the symbol in front of the number)).
Is it wrong to have foreign keys within a text field? I think if executed correctly, it should work perfectly.
Is there a way to insert a hyperlink in a field title on a table? For example, I have a field that is a check box for whether the person has taken a class. What I would like to do is insert a link in the field title for that class so I can click on it and bring up the supporting documentation in a PDF file for that class.
