View 1 Replies View RelatedDisplay Info From Different Record Source
Feb 27, 2006Hello once again,
I am wondering how I can display information on a form that is not of the same record source without using a subform.
Right now, I have a form setup with qryAll as the record source which provides the information to a listbox i have setup on the form. When I select something in this list box, I want to display information related to it from a table based on a CenterID. Is this possible to do? I won't need to edit the values, I just need to display them into a textbox or something.

Pull Info From One Text Box Forward To New Record
Aug 10, 2005Looking for an automation solution
currently I have a database for client progress and prescriptions. when the file is opened it is set for data entry so that a clean note form is opened. I have a button that pulls up past notes for their review.
it has been requested that there be a way to pull the last narative field forward to the new record for editing as a number of the features of the narative remain the same.
Currently the only way is for them to open the last seen note hightlight the field and past into the new note. to high level for some of them.
Need to make this an automated feature where they would just click on a button and the process would all occur behind the scean and the note would apper in the new note narative box.
I know that I could tell the form to not be for data entry but then they write over the last note. this needs to be a new record.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated

May 9, 2006Apologies if this is an obvious one but is it possible to hide this:
"Record:1 out of 34" and the arrow buttons at the bottm of a form(s)?
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,

Open A Form With A New Record With Selected Info Already Filled In
Sep 29, 2006Hi again,
One last one that's been niggling me - I just can't fathom the code... I bet it's very simple...
I have a Form ("frmJobSummary") that shows all the jobs for a customer - the customer is selected and the Customers ID is stored in a Control called "CustomerID" (It's just a number)
I have a button that opens up a new form... "frmEditJob" This allows you to add a job to a customer. I know how to get it to open up as a new record... but...
How do I get it to open up as a new record (or job) for the customer selected on the form "frmJobSummary"?
Here's the code so far... all it does is open the form with the Current record. :(
Your help is, as always, most appreciated!
Private Sub OpenNewJob_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_OpenNewJob_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "frmEditJob"
stLinkCriteria = "[CustomerFK]=" & Me![CustomerID]
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit_OpenNewJob_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_OpenNewJob_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_OpenNewJob_Click
End Sub
Having A Records Calculated Field Get Info From Previous Record
Jan 20, 2007I have a table (tblStats). The user enters his current weight in a field named Wt. There are 2 other fields in the table named WkLoss and TTDLoss. These two fields are intended to be calculated. What I am trying to do is when the user enters his current weekly weight figure into the Wt field, I want the field WkLoss to get the user's weight from the previous record and place the difference in the field WkLoss. Also I would like to keep a total to date in the TTDLoss field.
So far this has been my attempt.
Code:Public Sub setWeight()Dim rs As DAO.RecordsetDim Startval As DoubleStartval = 190Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("tblStats")'Select records to be updatedSet rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset _("SELECT * FROM tblStats ") rs.MoveFirst Do rs.Edit'field to update rs.Fields("WkLoss") = Startval rs.Update rs.MoveNext'increment step value Startval = WkLoss - Wt Loop Until rs.EOF rs.Close Set rs = Nothing End Sub
All I get is the value 190 placed in the first record and all zeros in the subsequent records. Also I don't have a clue as to how to get the Total To Date field to calculate.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks for your time.
Modules & VBA :: Creating A Record And Then Updating With Additional Info In Various Fields
Apr 24, 2014In the code below I am creating a record with the INSET INTO statement and then Updating with additional info in various fields. it is not working the way I thought it would, so I am trying to create the record in it's entirety.
Code:
SQL_Grade_GUSD_ID = "INSERT INTO Grades (GUSD_Student_ID) VALUES (" & Me.GUSD_Student_ID & ")"
SQLM1_1_ELA = "UPDATE Grades SET Grades.Subject = ""BM1(ELA)"""
SQLM1_2_ELA = "UPDATE Grades SET Grades.Type = ""Exam"""
SQLM1_3_ELA = "UPDATE Grades SET Grades.Score = ""0"""
SQLM1_4_ELA = "UPDATE Grades SET Grades.Nam = ""GUSD BM-1"""
DoCmd.RunSQL SQL
[Code] ...
I am running to syntax problems when I try to USE the INSERT INTO to create the record with all the info in one statement.
Code:
SQLM1_1_ELA = "INSERT INTO Grades ( GUSD_Student_ID, Subject, Type, Score, Nam ) " & _
"SELECT (" & Me.GUSD_Student_ID & ")"" AS GUSD_Student_ID, ""BM2(ELA)"" AS Subject, " & _
"""Exam"" AS Type, ""0"" AS Score, ""GUSD BM-1"" AS Nam " & _
"FROM Grades"
I am Getting this error:
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression '(12345)" AS GUSD_STUDENT_ID,
"BM2(ELA)" As Subject, "Exam" AS Type, "0" As Score, "GUSD BM-1" AS Nam From Grades'
Update Order Info Based On Quote Info
Nov 7, 2006I need help on this, from what the best concept is, to what I need to look into using:
I store Quote data from phone calls into tblQuotes. There is a seperate table that holds much of the same information except that it is for actual orders called tblOrders.
As far as function goes, I have each working much the way I need it to except for one thing... If a sales person is on the phone with a customer with a quote already in the system, right now they re-enter the data into the Order table. Most times, the order is what was quoted, but maybe with a few small changes (so I will wnt to keep a historical record of the quote). How could I copy the contents of the quote recordset into the recordset for an order, where all the sales rep does from there is edit the quote to the actual order?
Would I use VBA or an update query that is executed via VAB? Honestly, I am unsure how to do this at all, I hope someone has seen this before and has a good suggestion...
Thank you.

Need All Info In One Row
Nov 10, 2007I have a query that creates 8 columns, exactly as I want. However, the information in the last 2 columns, Dbk and Com, I'm trying to get on the same row. Right now, when the query is run, the Dbk amount shows up on one row and the Com column is blank, then the next row shows the Com amount and the Dbk column is blank. Is there a way to get both values to show on the same row? Thanks.

Deletion Of Certain Info Within A Row???
Aug 4, 2005Hello Gurus,
I need to perform a massive deletion within Access and I want to find out if there is a simple piece of SQL that can be written to complete this task.
Example:
I have a table called GAB - one of the columns is called email addresses
Currently all the email addresses look like this: m14.dpitts@****.com
I need them to look like this: dpitts@****.com, so all I need to do is remove the 'm14.'
Is there something within Access that will accomplish this?? Kinda like substr in Oracle?
Any help would be great!!! :)
Info About 'like' Operator From Help
Sep 26, 2005I am new to this forum, so forgive me if this question has been asked before
I needed exact information about the way the 'like' operator works, so I pressed F1, typed 'like' in the "Answer Wizard" and was told to "rephrase my question". :eek:
The index was slightly more helpful as it obviously contains 2 topics with 'like_operator', but choosing them does not reveal anything. :confused:
Where can I find info about such things?
I also need to use an operator called 'contains' which I have used when working with SAS, but appearently it does not exist in Acccess or it has another name. Has anybody heard about it?
Merge Info
Jan 17, 2006I have 3 tables: tbl_1, tbl_2, tbl_3
All 3 have the same 3 columns: name, email, code
Can I write some queries or a code or something that can create one "tbl_MASTER" with the same 3 columns?
Ex:
tbl_1 - 3 records
tbl_2 - 7 records
tbl_3 - 21 records
tbl_MASTER - 31 records. Now the information in the other 3 tables changes everyday so I want it to all be automatic, I dont want to execute 3 different queries or anything like that. Is this doable. Thanks.

Getting Table Info From Another DB
May 13, 2005Guys i have tried to seach the Forum but can't find a solution to my need.
I would like to get a collection of table names from another DB, what i am trying to do is populate a table with a list of table names that the front end links to and their paths once a user has selected the data file location.
Instead of me having to force a user to place the DB files in a location of my choice when the database first loads it will prompt the user to select the location of the data file then (this is why i need the above) populate a table with a list of table names and their source, then establish a link to them for the front end to work.
Also if i ever send amended DB files or they move the location of the data files they can automatically re-establish the linked tables.
Hope this makes sense.
Cheers guys.
Info Gathering
Aug 28, 2007Hi,
I have been struggling with a project and cannot seem to get a solution. The following is a bit drawn out so I apologies, but if anyone can help - (or tell me if it is not possible) I would be grateful.
I have a club DB with 42 members, and have a table with members details etc.
They meet 12 times a year and I have a table with details of the meetings (each meeting is a separate record with date, venue etc)
I use forms to view the records.
What I would like to do is be able run a query/report to see who attended each meeting/or how many meetings an individual attended over the year. (I have not got to the query/report stage yet, as I cannot figure out how to set up the information).
(I need to know each year how many meetings an individual attends)
I thought of putting a list of the members and a tick box next to their name on each of the 12 meeting records, (which will update when members join/leave) then be able to run a query with the name of the member, and the dates (or number) of the meetings attended, but don'y know how.
At the moment all I can think of is a memo field, and just type in their names on a specific meeting record.
Any help would be gratefully received
Regards
Adrian
Info From Two Columns In A Third
Jan 22, 2008Hi!
Say I have a table/qry:
ID | VARIETY | PRODUCT
1 | Fresh White | Garlic
2 | Fres Valencianita | Onion
Is therey a way to merge variety and product? Cause I want to make an invoice description with a text that can be made out merging fields of a same table/qry.
Sth like the following:
"[QUANTITY] of [VARIETY] [PRODUCT] from [COUNTRY], size: [SIZE]...."
I saw a topic about listing items horizontally but I think it was kinda different from what I wanted, specially cause involved more than one table.
Info About A Control
Aug 4, 2005I have a form with some controls, and for some of the controls, I would like to provide some info, when a user key presses a particular key. I would like that when this assigned key is pressed a small box will pop up providing the relevant information. However, for this feature i do not wish to use the msgbox, to provide the information in, but i would like to use something as those "white boxes" which are normally used in help files (the ones that normally describes a definition of a particular term).
Can this be done in access, and if you kindly could you point me in the right direction.
Thank You for any feedback.
Retrieve Info.
Mar 21, 2007Hi,
Suppose I have sharing drive, let's say "\server1sharefolderDatabasesdb1.mdb"
if I run this CurrentProject.Path inside the database file, it will retreive the current path with drive letter, but how can I retreive the server, and sharefolder information?
Finding Info In Another Table
May 11, 2005Please note that I am self taught (90% of what I have learnt has been off these boards!). I did make this form with info I found on this forum.
I am having problems with a log in box for a database, the line of code is -
If Me.txtpassword.Value = DLookup("password", "customers", "[customerID] =" & Me.EbayName.Value) Then
This code is in a Form; "password" is the value in the table of "customers"; [customerID] is the primary key value I wish to remember; Me.EbayName.Value I assume is the value in the table that access is looking for.
Questions -
A) It is not looking up the value for [customerID] - what have I done wrong?
B) In the line of Me.EbayName.Value what does the 'Me.' part tell Access to do? I assume it's a pointer to it's own form? What part of the line do I need to change to make it point to another form (or table)?
C) When this is finished how do I get the program to remember the 'customerID' while the customer is fillling out other forms?

Options To Get Info From Tables
May 16, 2005It seems that there are a few different ways to get info from the tables when developing an applications that i know of:
1)queries
2)dao
3)ado
4)selects without any of the above
I lean towards the last 2 but I need to know this: is there any advantages in using ado as opposed just sql?
For instance i ran this sql:
Private Sub Command0_Click()
Dim SQL As String
Dim strCriteria As String
strCriteria = Forms![form2]![Text1]
SQL = "SELECT * FROM Table1 WHERE (((Table1.clinic)='" & strCriteria & "'))"
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmClinic"
Forms![frmClinic].RecordSource = SQL
End Sub
it worked fine. I could see how a beginner would prefer to use queries over sql but I would prefer to use sql in vba. I've read that dao is older and I should use ado instead. So that leaves ado vs. the way I displayed it in the above code. So which way should I go? If I'm over looking queries or dao in favour of ado/sql, just point out their advantages if you don't mind.
Thanks,
scratch
Getting Existing Info To Different Table (same Db)
Aug 8, 2005I have an inventory table and a repair table for computer equipment. The inventory table is already set and working with all the data I need.
In the repair table, I would like to just enter the ID number and have some of the information already stored in the inventory table automatically entered into the repair table as needed.
For example, computer 138 has repairs done to it. I would like to then go into the repair table to add a new entry, type in 138 and have the some of the data from inventory table (model, serial number, etc) transfer into the repair table.
Is this possible with Access?
I have only been able to do something with the lookup wizard, but that doesnt seem to work well.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
