I have two forms both with separate tables
(1) Register and
(2) Payments.
One of the common denominators between them is the URN which is auto-populated as it is an auto number field. My issue is that when I want to add a new record to the payments table using the forms (I can get to the payments form via the register form), I want to be able to identify the record that I am currently viewing within the register and auto populate the URN field with the same number. This is what I have done so far,
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub AttachPaymentDetails()
Call PerformInsert("tblFinancialBudget", "frmFinancialBudget")
End Sub
[code]....
Hi,
I looked through your forums and didn't see this question answered. Forgive me if it is already there and I couldn't find it.
I have a report that I want to add a new text box to. When I create a form there is no problem choosing the different control sources of data that I want to put into the text boxes on the report. However, once I have created the report I can't seem to go back and make the data come through correctly if I am adding a new text box.
Example: I want to add a text box that is pulling through data from a field named "Duty" in a table named "Container_Vendor_Information". I put the text box into the created form and navigated through the control source choices to get the text box to point to where I want it to. Something goes wrong after that. When I close the form and try to reopen it I get a pop up box that is asking me to enter the parameter values for "Container_Vendor_Information."
I know there has to be an easy way to do this. All I'm doing is looking to add a new text box to an exsisting form. Any thoughts would be most welcome.
I would attach the database but I guess I don't have enough posts yet to have that option.
Thanks
Eddie.
Hi, I want to insert an Expression in a text box of a report using VB.
This is what I wrote in the code builder section of report header.
Me.totalBox.Value = strTotalExp
Me is the header section of the report.
totalBox is the textbox.
strTotalExp is the expression that I want to enter, it is a string.
How should I do this?
Thanks.
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:
Hi,
I have a strange problem, I have created this query:
INSERT INTO WEEKONE ( Assigned_To )
SELECT QPTActions.Assigned_To
FROM QPTActions
WHERE QPTActions.Entry_Date<=DateValue('1/2/2006') And QPTActions.Close_Date>DateValue('1/2/2006');
It works, but it inserts Numbers into the Assigned_To column in the table WEEKONE. When I looked in the QPTActions database the values are text but the type of column was originally set to Number. I changed this to Text but its still inserting Number values into the destination table. How can I fix this?
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.
Hi,
I am working with a simple MS Access database. I am trying to add a new user with the following SQL statement:
Set connection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
connection.Open(strCon)
strSQL = "INSERT INTO UserTable (UserID, FirstName, LastName, Password) values ('" & userName & "', '" & userFName & "', '" & userLName & "', '" & userPWD & "')"
connection.execute(strSQL)
However when trying to run the code, IE gives me the following error:
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e14'
Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement.
/dvdcollection/registration.asp, line 60
Line 60 is the connection.execute(strSQL) line.
I have double check the statement but cannot see anything wrong with it.
I would appreciate it if someone can help me out on this one.
Thanks.
I have been sending plain text emails for a while, but now I have a project where the formatting of the text needs to be specific and I need to send as rich text.
I can use the rich text from a table, excel, or word, but I am at a loss on how to get the data to Lotus Notes.
hi
i have attached a document with print screen of the form and combo box properties i am working on
the way it works is, when the user selects a code, the appropriate desciption, uoi and price is displayed. but for some reason the price combo value is not being written to the price field in the table. all the data on the form except for item desc and uoi is written to tbl_waste. the item info for the combo boxes comes from qry_items.
please help..i have been banging my head for days now...thanks
I really hope I can explain this right :o
When a customer makes a purchase I INSERT the transaction into the 'transactions' table, which I have no problems with. My problem stems from that I can't seem to get the 'OrderNumber' back from the 'transaction' table (OrderNumber is an AutoNumber by the way).
I have tried the following code -
TempOrder = DLookup("OrderNumber", "transactions", "customerID = '" & Forms![frmOrder]!TempID & "'")
"Forms![frmOrder]!TempID" is the value I use from another form (to see who the customer is). I want "TempOrder" to be the OrderNumber that is created in the transactions table.

I have a form and a subform. There are a number of buttons on the form, allowing me to add, update, delete, etc. records from the subform. The process is that I select a record on the subform, its details are displayed on the form, then clicking on <Delete>, for example, removes it.
Each of these processes work fine on their own and also if carried out one after the other, for the most part. The one problem I'm finding is when I delete a record.
Firstly, the subform appears to refresh and the record is no longer shown. However, if I then try to select another row from the subform, I get a message saying 'record is deleted'. I click on <OK> to remove this message and I can then select the same row or another row without any problems.
Secondly, if I now try to add a new record (the code behind the button is just 'DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec'), I get a message saying that I can't go to the selected record.
If I close and reopen the form between each activity, all works fine, suggesting that something isn't refreshing properly. I've tried putting 'Me.refresh' and 'Me.requery' immediately after running the deletion, but to no effect.
Any suggestions?
I have a query with records,
I want a field named RECORD NUMBER beside it I want a consecutive number increment EG
RecordNumber - RecordDecription - RecordTitle
------------------------------------------
1 - TITLE001 - TITLE001
2 - TITLE002 - TITLE002
3 - TITLE003 - TITLE003
is there a formula i can use in my query to create this?
Hi,
I'm trying to insert a record into an Access database from some ASP Code.
I have:
...
strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblUser (UserID, Date, Comments) VALUES " & _
(" & nID & ", #" & Now() & "#, " & "''" & strComments & "');"
conn.Execute(strSQL)
...
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.
Any ideas as to what I might be doing wrong?
Hi,
With a table in open view can a record be moved to a different position, i'm using access 2003. Also is there any way to sort besides ascending or descending?
I've got a lot of tables to make and if I forget a single column/field and have to add it later (like I have done all ready numerious times) I'm almost having to recreate the table again in order to have the field fit in the correct spot in the table. These tables are bound to combo boxes so its important every thing is grouped for easy choosing.
Thanks--All help will be very appreciated
The problem I have is, that I need to insert an apointment into de database but first I need to verify if there is a record or an apointment in that room that day the same hour, if that is so send a msgbox saying an apointment already exist in that room this day at this hour.
i tried using dlookup but it only works in one record using just one criteria
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 15 unbound text boxes (daily temperatures) and what I am trying to do after entering the temperatures into the text boxes the user clicks an add button which will add 15 new records into the temperature table
the code I have started off with is
Code:
CurrentDb.Execute "INSERT INTO ColdTemperatures (ProductID, ColdTempDate, Temperature) VALUES (" & Lettuce & ", #" & Me.RealTime & "#, " & Me.Lettuce & ")"
which adds 1 successfully however if i repeat the code above for all 15 this Im assumming will create a potential bottleneck and slow the system down
is it possible to add all 15 records at once? do you think Im going at this the right way
I have a main form where information for a particular part number or job is entered. Should the part number not yet exist, Access will let you know. I have a button within the main form that opens up the Form_EnterPartNumber form which allows you to enter the new part number.
What I would hope to be able to do would be to refresh (requery?) the main form after creating a new part number and closing the Form_EnterPartNumber form..........but, keep the main form on the current record instead of resetting back to record number 1.
Is this possible?
I have a text box in a form (unbound) and when I go to add text into it, the text carries over from one record to another but I want it to be exclusively for that record.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make use of the OpenForm command to open a form to a record where a textbox matches the value of a text box on another form.
On Form1, I have a textbox called txtRtnRef, and it contains a reference number in a similar format to SWR-9
On Form2, I have a textbox called txtReOrderRef (control source ReOrderRef) which also contains a reference number in the same format (SWR-9)
I am trying to have a button next to the text box on Form1 that has an OnClick Event that opens Form2 to the record containing the same text reference number.I have tried, to no avail, a number of variations of the OpenForm command, the most recent being
Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "Form2", , , "ReOrderRef = '" & Me.txtRtnRef & "'"
The form opens, but to a blank record?
I've made the form below, with a sub form in it to show the table below the text boxes. What I'd like, is for the user to be able to select a record on the table (preferably just by clicking on it) and the text boxes to automatically populate with the relevent data. Is there a way to do this?

Hi all. Question: On a new record, what is the value of a text box prior to it being updated? I have tried to check and it is neither Null or Zero or "".
Basically, I have a text box on my form linked to a field on my table(the field is defined as number). In addition I have two check boxes also tied to their respective table.
I need to make the following happen:
Allow the form to close when
1) Both the text box and the check boxes are empty and/or unchecked. (on a new record)
2) The text box contains a numeric value and one of the check boxes is checked.
I can make the #2 work, but not #1. Any ideas, suggestions?
Thank you.
I have a Text Box called: VNo , and a table called: DocControl.
The Table contains this information
Name........Version............Date
-------------------------------------------
GFD v0.1 09/03/2008
GFD v0.2 11/03/2008
GFD v0.3 12/03/2008
TRD v0.4 13/03/2008
GFD v0.5 14/03/2008
I want the Text Box to display the last value in the Version Column, which in this case is "v0.5"
Any help thanks?
