I am creating a training database and first I have tables in relationship to the courses:
tbl_Courses Course ID (Primary Key) Course Title Objectives
Instructors (lookup field allowing multiple instructors to be selected, meaning they are skilled to teach the course)
tbl_Instructors Instructor ID (Primary Key Last Name First Name Full Name (Caluclated to put Last Name, First Name)
[code]....
What I am trying to do on a form to create a new event is once the user selects the Course from the Course ID combo box, then I need the Instructor combo box to only display the instructors who are skilled to teach the course which are selected in the tbl_Courses.
I can get all Instructor ID's, but not the names and the class that has multiple instructors show on one line.Should I have not put the Instructors field in the tbl_Courses? Do I need another table for instructor skills or something?
In one table I want to limit the options of one field depending on what is chosen in another field.
Field Type has two options: Receivable and Payable.
I want field Sybtype with this limits:
If Receivable is chosen in Type field you will only have CreditCard & Lockbox available in the Subtype field. If Payable is chosen you will only have Cheque & Transfer to choose. Shall I have two separate tables? or only one table with Type and SubType as below? but then how can I make the above work?
Type SubType Receivable CreditCard Receivable Lockbox Payable Cheque Payable Transfer
I am building a form in access and I am trying to find a way where user input isn't possible in the associated textbox when "No" from on option box is selected.
I have several result fields which are all drop down lists. I want each result field's drop down list values to be different depending on the selected value of the Test1 drop down list.I came up with using the .rowsource keyword. My syntax seems to be fine but I'm not getting any values under the result fields when I run the form.Here is my code so far:
Private Sub Test1_AfterUpdate() If Me.Test1 = "Stress Echo" Or Me.Test1 = "Stress SPECT" Or Me.Test1 = "Stress PET" Or Me.Test1 = "Stress MRI" Then Me.Test1Result2.RowSourceType = "Value List" Me.Test1Result3.RowSourceType = "Value List"
I am looking for a way to customize fields to be hidden or not depending on user in forms or reports.
Any idea ?
I wanted to explore the customisation of each query but there must be an easier way to save personal parameters somehow so that the user would go through the forms and hide the non necessary fields once and we would then save somewhere these settings for each user.
I want to add a combo box to a form, where depending on the values entered in the box another combo box would show more values. In other words, if the first combobox had choices of 1, 2, 3 and 4, if 1 was selected the next combo box would have values a, b, c and d. If 2 was selected, it would have values of a, d, e, f and g.
Is there an easy way to get user input like the parameter value box in an update query, where you want the user to specify the table name and field name to run the query on?
I have a search form that looks up a value in a field and lets the user know if it is there or not, they have now asked to put in multiple values to search... eg. searching containers number, I will put user input box where they can put these numbers
NYKU023561 TRLU102356 TCNU123023
This will search my container number field and show a pop up message box saying.. Please note below NYKU023561 - has been found you cannot use this container TRLU102356 - has not been found please check internal system TCNU123023 - has beeen found you cannot use this container
Below is the basic search I had before which was all I needed.. how can I adapt this?
Code: Private Sub Command256_Click() If (CntSearch & vbNullString) = vbNullString Then Exit Sub Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim CNT As String
I'm trying to update the account number via an input box with a do loop but I don't have the code right. The at the input box, the user will type in a 4-8 digit number and it will update all the account number fields in a table that are null.
I have a table, at the table I'v got these fields:
ID | num1 | num2 | sum
I want that the user put numbers at 'num1' and 'num2' fields and then the 'sum' field will calculate automatically the operator (sum=num1+num2).
I've tried to put any combination at 'Default value' of the sum field (all the fields are numbers , also tried to change the sum field to text...nothing works).
I'm getting a message that 'num1' field is not recognize at the table
(I tried =[num1]+[num2], without the '=', num1.table+num2.table , ...nothing works)
I also tried to do it with SQL command but it dosn't work.
There is any way to do it, is it possible? Or other way to do it at least at Form or at Report ?
I have a form in Access2000 with 5 text fields which get transferred to the table for each new record. Is there a way i can "LOCK" one field so that once the user has input that data it never changes until closed. I can already lock the field but once i create a new record the field then goes blank.
I have created a query with the parameter for the Domain field. however on the form the user enters this information via a drop down menu. i was just wondering could the parameter box be set to a drop down box as well to save the user entering in the full Domain field name?
I'm stuck! I want to create a form which has a combo box where you select someone's name, and their address appears in another text box on the same form. The names and addresses are in a table called "cardholders".
I'm doing separate combos for first name, surname cos I think that's the only way you can do it.
The fields in the table are credit_add, credit_name & credit_surname. The combos are called "cardholder name" "cardholder surname" etc. This is the code in the text box where I want the address to appear:-
tblTreatment contains Cost for different AppointmentTypes.
The above two tables are linked as 1-M relationship (1 Treatment can have Many Appointments)
Entering data in the tblAppointment - AppointmentType and AppointmentCost are the fields in tblAppointment. AppointmentType a drop down box, so that a specific AppointmentType can be selected.
Problem: Now depending on the AppointmentType selected the AppointmentCost field should automatically display the correct Cost.
Now, in the amendment field, I've inserted a combo box, with 3 options in it. Let's say option A,B and C...The thing I want access to do, is, when option C is selected, I want fields Period, Salary and Shift to be automatically "Yes".But if option A or B is selected, the the user must choose what the other fields are going to be either Yes or No
I'm trying to make a report that a untrained user can use to review the relevant data from the database I'm creating. All of the work I've done so far has been directly in the tables . Here's a quick outline of my general data organization:
Basically, I want the user to select a department to view using a combo box or option group (which I'm not sure of how to do in a report). Then, I want to view the employees within that department sorted first by whether or not the Needs_Work check box is selected, and then by how many of their competencies are unchecked.
I have a fairly simple database that looks like the attached. It is the beginnings of a school database. Unfortunately, the MS template doesn't quite do it.
We have around 700 pupils in 5 year groups. Each year's intake is assigned the year of that intake (e.g. 2002, 2003 etc).
The youngest pupils are in Year 7 whilst the oldest are in year 11.
Each Class is assigned based on the intake year but given the name of the schooling year - (e.g. year 7, year 8 etc). And there are 6 classes per year - hence names 7.1, 7.2, 7.3 etc.
My "Students and Classes" table should combine both the classes and pupils. However, I want to be able to firstly select the class to put the pupil into (and hence infer the induction year), then just show in the next filed only the pupils that belong to that induction year and hence go into the selected class.
However I design my lookup or query, I can't seem to figure out how to do this, or if this can even be done.
Not sure if this is a form or table query, so here goes...
I have an invoice table and then an invoice line items table.
In the line items table I have field 'work order number' i.e. each line item will have a corresponding work order number. The db at the moment gets these numbers from a look up table and that table also has a description for that work order number i.e. nr 123 is for surveys and studies.
Now surveys and studies may have three sub headings but the work order number is an umbrella for the main task description and sub taks. The sub taks do not have there own number and at present i can not give them there own number.
Becasue you may have upto 10 different work order numbers for a project and upto 5 sub headings this equates to 50 + sub headings. What I would like to be able to do is that when the work order number has been chosen this filters out the sub headings belonging to that work order.
I am just unsure how to set this up as at present the work order number is a look up with the main heading.
Do I make work order a table in its own right and link that to the line items and then have a lookup for sub headings linking to the work order table??
Thanks for your help.
reading this back it does sound more like a table query??
From a table I want a text field which has a path to a file to be copied automatically into a another field of the same table with a hyperlink text type...
I need to create a field in an input form that is simply the concatenation of two other text fields. I have tried all sorts of things, but when I look at the data in the table that field.
I have a field called ID that I want to be created like this:
=Format([UniqueID],"00000") & "-" & [Mosque]
This works well in my output fields, but does not work the same way on the input form. It needs to be based on the currently input values from the current record. Anyone have any ideas?
I need for Access only to sum the "hours worked" of my payroll data, only if another field, "pay code" meets a certain criteria.
In Payroll, some codes are used to designate actual hours worked like REG (Regular Hours) and like OTS (Overtime Straight) while other codes are added as "premiums" to these hours and do not mean that you actually worked those hours, like OTP and HOD (Overtime Premium & Holiday Premium). The hours are only added as a reference to the actual hours worked they are attached to. Their units should not be counted as hours worked.
I want Access to 1) Group By Cost Center, 2) Sum "Hours Paid" that are tied to a REG or OTS (only), but 3)Sum the Earnings for all pay types.
Basically, (in excel-like terms: Hours Paid Column= SUMIF of Paycode = REG OR OTS. But Earnings Amount Column= Sum of all Paycodes)
Cost Center Job Type Hours Paid Pay Code Earnings Amount
I would like my form field to populate based on what the user selects from 2 combo boxes I have. I have a table set up with Region, Position, and Name. I would like when the user selects for example Eastern for the region and President for the position that John Smith would auto populate in the form field. Is this possible and if so, how can I get this to work?
