Limit Query Based Form
Jan 30, 2008
Hi,
I've attached a zip version of my database (which is still in the early stages of development) as I think it will be tricky to explain what I need. I've studied lots of other threads but can't find the answer I'm looking for.
Basically I have a form "Goods-in" which has a subform in continuous view that lets you pick from a product list. I'm trying to limit this combo to products that relate to this supplier only, but (it seems) because the subform is based on a query I can't update it.
I have tried several approaches but got nowehere. At this stage I don't know whether the problem is with
- how I'm linking the parent and child forms
- the SQL of the combo recordsource
- my relationships
- my overall design
- the weather!
- etc.
I would be eternally grateful if someone could take a look and advise me. The items shaded grey on the forms are just my shorthand for what will be invisible in the final version.
I'm going home now and even though I may read replies tonight, I wont be back in the office until 9am.
Thanks in advance!

My problem is the following: when I receive say 5 computers in a purchase form, I want to register the serial number of each of them in another form, bound to another table.If I receive 2 units in the purchase form, my user should only be able to input 2 records in the serial form (a continuous form), if we receive 3, then only 3 records,I cannot quite figure out how to build this second (serial number registration form), so that it refuses input after the correct number has been reached.

Hey Y'all.
I have built a query (Loading_query) that brings in the prefix, number and date_loaded (=null) for each rail car.
I now want to display the rail cars numbers in a drop-down but be limited by the prefix selected in another drop-down on the form.
For example:
If the prefix that was selected = GATX then
the next drop-down should use "Loading_query" to only show the rail cars that are empty (according to date_loaded) and have a prefix that = GATX.....
Still new at this and do not know how to use a value from the form to limit the query.

I tried to word the title as accurately as possible.
What I'm trying to build is a Form where they can select data in different fields to limit (filter) the list. In my query criteria I want to read the form, if there's a value use THAT in the criteria (for that field) otherwise ignore it.
I've tried isnulls etc. If I put a value (like City) it properly returns all the records with that city, however if I put nothing the "ISNULL" returns a value that the criteria doesn't match i.e. I get nothing.
There must be a way to tell a query to NOT use any criteria if an object (form!field) is blank...?

Essentially I have a table for rooms around my school and what the rooms contain. Most of the details for the rooms are Boolean (e.g. If the room has a projector, Yes/No). So what im trying to do is have a form where i can select a checkbox(s) and if i tick one, a query that holds all the room details will only show rooms with projectors in them, which i can then display those results in another form.
My question is how do I get the check boxes in the form to narrow down the room results to only show the ones with the criteria i have selected in the form?

Field B is a combo with the options of : 100% Availability, 75% Availability, 50% Availability, 25% Availability, OR Not Available
If I choose "Present" in Field A, I want the "Not Available" value to disappear as an option.

I have a form which uses a parameter based query to present an individual senior doctor with a list of names for of individual juniors to provide an assessment report on. When the first form opens the user enters their RespondentID.
Once senior has decided which names to comment on I have another form which has the questions to be answered which is opened by clicking a button on the first form.
How can I pass a parameter from the first form to the second so that only the records relevant to that senior doctor are displayed? The underlying table has 60 senior doctors and 20 junior doctors. The senior doctor is identified by the field RespondentID in the first form. I've tried putting a WhereClause in the FormOpen command but I still get a dialogue box asking for the parameter RespondentID when the second form is opened.

I have two tables linked by ID (Table1,Table2)
The Table1 holds data that is a request for a task.
ID, Request, Task_tms (the number of times the task is required to be done)
1, Make a cup of coffee,15
Table2 is my allocation of people to the tasks.
ID, Person, Task_done (the number of times this person has done the task)
1,Sally,10
1,Eddie,5
What I want to do is to limit the amounts of allocation in some way (ie in this case if I have already put 10 for Sally then I would be unable to put anymore than 5 when entering the amount for Eddie.
Additionally if I were to allocate all 15 to Sally then no additional people would be able to be allocated to this task (ID 1)
The two table are in datasheet format linked on a form.

I have a DB with 4 tables:
Property (used for look-up values)
Service Type (used for look-up values)
Rate Table (uses the Property Table and Service Type Table and is used as a rate look-up table for the daily service table noted below)
Daily Service
Using the Daily Service table, I need to choose a property, choose a service type that is limited to the property (100's of service types, but a property may only have a limited number), and enter a quantity, and have the Rate Table return the specific cost of the service. I didn't think this was too hard in Access (2013), but I seem to be hitting a wall and spending too much time figuring it out. Now I am behind in my project.
I have been trying to do this in a table format, but have been unsuccessful in limiting the results of the Service Type combo box based on the property chosen.

Hi all,
stuck on this, not sure if it can be resolved....
I have a parameter query for which the parameter is based on a form field entry (i wanted to avoid the dialog box popping up).
No problems with this....however, I want to create a chart based on the same query however, i get the following error message because it does not recognise the query parameter.
Error Message: The Microsoft Jet database engine does not recognise '[Forms]![frmChooseDTDate]!DateOccured' as a valid field name or expression.
Can this be resolved?
Help most appreciated!
regards to all

We have a database with one main data entry which stores records in a seperate table. There are several thousand records keyed in using this form. Therefore, alongside the entry we have a search form which allow the user to search for a specific record and display it in the main if he/she needs to edit one.
We have received a request from users for a functionality which allows users to browse all records, using the main form layout, that they have keyed in. I guess what I am asking is: Is there a way to limit the records visible in a form using field on that same form as a limitation (ie. the users name - which is a required key-in)?

Hi,
I'd like to know if this is possible and if so, how to do it.
I have a couple of text fields, let's say text1 and text2. I would like the following functionality:
if text1 = "somevalue"
then allow entry into text2
else disable entry into text2
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

I have a Top 10 query (it is based on $ amount) and everything works fine except...say I have 1,000 records and 5 are >$0 it shows those fine but since the other 995 records are $0 it shows "all" of them.
I would like to limit the record count in the query to only 10. Within that 10 records if there are $0 records then I would like to show them up to the 10 record limit.
I see both sides I think but you would think that if you say "Top 10" it would be "10".
Thank you :confused:

strSQL = "SELECT * FROM Table1 WHERE expire_date>#" & dteDate & "# ORDER BY post_date DESC LIMIT 3;"
If I take the LIMIT part off, it works, but add it on and it causes:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error in ORDER BY clause.

Any ideas?

Hello
I have an access 2003 db. I have a csv file that regularly downloads from a propietary system. This file contains about 18,000 records. Some customers have more than one record so there are about 7000 customers. I have linked this table to access to benefit from the regular download changes.
About 150 of these customers are accounts I want to filter out of my db. I tried a query criteria Cust# Not "(Cust#) or (Cust#) and so on. Access will not let me have this many in my query. Is there another way?

I am working on my DB for work and am almost finished with my DB. I have a query that gives me totals for days. This is the code that I have been using.
TotalTMD: IIf([SumOfTMD Total]>=180,IIf(IsNull([SumOfLOA Total]),180,"180"),[SumOfTMD Total])
TotalLOA: IIf([SumOfLOA Total]>=180,IIf(IsNull([SumOfTMD Total]),180,"180"),[SumOfLOA Total])
The "TotalTMD" and "TotalLOA" days are limited to 180 days for each table. However what I need to do now is limit the combination of both fields to 180 days. Is this possible?
Since "TotalLOA" is more serious, I would like to use what ever days are in this field and then include what ever days are left over to total 180 days from "TotalTMD" days.
Maybe I could use this as an example:
Name TMDDays LOADays Total days
John 190 20 210
Jim 80 90 170
Tony 250 190 440
Should display:
Name TMDDays LOADays Total days
John 160 20 180
Jim 80 90 170
Tony 0 180 180
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

"Microsoft Office Access can't create any more controls on this form or report.If you have deleted from this form or report in the past, you may be able to rename the form or report and then add more controls to it."
I tried:
- rename the form -- > same problem
- copy/paste the form --> for some reason it's not duplicating (don't know why)
Is there a limit to insert controls on a form?

I've built a function that open a form in Design mode, read records from a table about appointments and create a grid with textboxes representing one appointment each. On the left there are labels with hours and as column headers there are doctors names. Practically each column shows each doctor's daily appointments (it is a medical clinique).
Every time i change the date all controls are deleted and rebuilt.
But after three or four day I pass I get a message of memory limit.
The question is general : Why the memory finish if I close every variable I use during the creation with the instruction:
set frm = nothing
set newTxt = nothing
rst.close
set rst = nothing

I have a table that I need to identify the records in that have specific text in one of the fields, the field also contains other data. i.e. the field (accessdescription) can contain any combination of the following text (Bridge, Report, Email). and I want to list only the records that have email in this field, noting that the field usually contains at least two of the possible entries.
Any pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I have an unbound form with a subform which is bound to a query. The subform prioritizes and individually lists all projects my company has on its agenda and the project’s corresponding cost. Is it possible to enter a dollar figure (which would represent our budget) on the main form and have the subform list only the top prioritized projects whose running total costs would fit within the budget figure stated? Any help would be appreciated as I don’t even know if this is possible. Thanks.

I am querying a linked ODBC table with a date column called "db_created_tms" that has dates in formatted like "2/25/2004 8:54:02 PM" , because it is a linked table I can't edit the data type. How can I limit my query results to the last 30 days.
My query without the date limit currently looks like this:
SELECT QBReportAdminGroup_v_txn_po_line.doc_num_h AS po, QBReportAdminGroup_v_txn_po_line.quantity_qnty AS qty, QBReportAdminGroup_v_lst_item.name AS REFERENCE, QBReportAdminGroup_v_txn_po_line.unit_price_amt AS cost, QBReportAdminGroup_v_lst_vendorODBC.name AS vendor, "" AS LOCATION
FROM (QBReportAdminGroup_v_txn_po_line INNER JOIN QBReportAdminGroup_v_lst_item ON QBReportAdminGroup_v_txn_po_line.item_id = QBReportAdminGroup_v_lst_item.id) INNER JOIN QBReportAdminGroup_v_lst_vendorODBC ON QBReportAdminGroup_v_txn_po_line.vendor_id = QBReportAdminGroup_v_lst_vendorODBC.id;

I'm working in Access 2003
I have a table of projects done by my company, which includes
-organization name
-project year
-service 1 provided
-service 2 provided
-service 3 provided
-service 4 provided
-project fee
-project consultant 1
-project consultant 2
-project consultant 3
I've created a Query Based Form where you can enter in any combination of search criteria (e.g. org name and btwn 2001-2004) and the button press runs a query that returns a table of projects that match all the criteria you've entered.
I've figured out (I have no formal Access or programming training) what to set the criteria as in the query so you can get info by entering org. name, project year (with start and end dates) and/or project fee (with bottom and top amts).
The issue that I'm having is that I want to be able to enter a consultant name into the Form, and have the query return any projects that have that consultant listed a either project consultant 1,2 or 3 - and the same idea for the service provided. Right now I can only get the query to look in the 'service 1 provided' and 'project consultant 1' columns.
I had a thought that I could run 3 different queries - 1 that will look at org, date and fee, a 2nd that will look at all consultants, and a 3rd that will look at all services - and then run a 4th that would give me a table that only showed projects that appeared in all 3 of the other queries. However I haven't been able to figure this out, nor do I know if it's the best way to achieve my desired result. Right now I have the 4th (using UNION) showing all projects that show up on ANY of the 3 queries, plus the button press makes all 4 query result tables pop up, and I'd like it if only the 4th (final) query produced a visible result.
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, can anyone help? I have set up a query that looks at a list box on a form for one of its criteria and then a text box on the form for the user to also specify a date. A command button on the form runs the query. Is there any way for the query to work if the date field is unpopulated (as well as having the option to specify a date)?
Any help gratefully received x
