Locking Specific Fields
Jan 30, 2007Hey guys,
Is there a setting that will allow me to make specific fields in my table read-only unless I enter a password, or I am the DB administrator?

Locking A Specific Field Of A Specific Record
Oct 3, 2005Hello, I have just spent ages doing searches and reading everything I can on locking. But, I have yet to find an answer as to how I can lock a specific field in a specific record.
e.g. Staff enter customer details, then at the end of the day the admin (me) checks it over and presses a big old button that stops them from locking certain fields in the current record only - they must still have access to the unlocked fields of the current record, and it must not lock any other records.
I'm guessing there's some VB code in the form of fieldname.lock = true, but then it locks the field throughout the whole table!
Can anyone tell me how to do this please?

Mar 18, 2014Is there any way other than through coding/controls I can lock specific records in a table.
I have a reference table with less than 200 records on it. 5 and only 5 records need to be locked so that they primarily can not be deleted but also so they can't be edited.
I've read about locking it at form level but that, to me, means some sort of coding.
Locking Fields In A Table
Feb 15, 2006How do you go about locking certain fields in a table, so that data can only be input to them via the form?? I have a few tick boxes set up, and i want them to changed only in the form, as they can only be ticked under certain circumstances which aren't setup in the table.

Fields Are Locking, But Very Stange
Dec 1, 2005Hi,
Ok, i have a really stange problem
I have two tables tablea, tableb. They both have the field Line address in which is a number.
However, when i have both these tables in a query and link them on line address the dataview sheet becomes locked. But if i just run a query with tablea on its own, i can write in the dataview and if i just run a query with tableb i can also write in it, but when linked together on line address, it fails
Any ideas?
Thanks

Locking Datasheet Fields
Sep 4, 2007Hello,
I need a little help with locking some fields in a datasheet.
Simply, there are many fields, one of which is a combo which has either Yes/No fields
I would like to lock the records which have a Yes in the field i mentioned.
Ok, what i've tried already. - in on current and after update.
I have also tried this with the Me. function.
if [avail?] = Yes then
Qty.Enabled = True
StockCode.Enabled = True
StockPoint.Enabled = True
Else
Qty.Enabled = False
StockCode.Enabled = False
StockPoint.Enabled = False
end if
This works but locks fields in all the records even when selection is "No".
Any help will be appreciated.
Forms :: Locking Fields Even If They Have Unsaved Changes
Aug 8, 2013I have a button on my form which locks (and disables) some fields. by locking and disabling fields, I am able to change the back color of the fields to a "grayed out" look to warn the user that they cannot change the contents of the field.
some of the fields that I have disabled are in fact option buttons and check boxes which have no back color to change, keep this in mind!
So i have a macro that changes ALL of the fields to disabled and locked, as well as their background color.
This causes an error with the check boxes and option boxes so to bipass them I have got the clause "On Error Resume Next" so that my macro continues to complete and finish locking the rest of the form.
With this "On Error Resume Next", If the code reaches a field which has been changed, another error occurs due to a field being changed which blocks the rest of the code from working however why it wont change regardless of the issue, I dont care if the content was saved to a record or not, I just want to put the fields into disabled and locked.
Is there a way I can remove this "You Can't Lock A control while it has unsaved changes" error to ignore that there has been changes? Where the changes just dont matter?

Modules & VBA :: Set Of Fields - Method For Locking Records?
Aug 20, 2013On my form I have a set of fields that can be displayed as editable or read-only depending on a "Lockout" checkbox for that record.Is there an easier way of doing this? If not, would it be smarter to create a function to do this? As it stands I'm assuming I would have to have this code run when the form loads, when the Lockout box is clicked, and whenever the record is changed just to ensure that the records are displayed as locked or unlocked appropriately.
Here's what I have:
Code:
Private Sub Lockout_Click()
If [Lockout] = True Then
Me![Customer_Text].Enabled = False
Me![ReqDesc_Text].Enabled = False
Me![MoreInfo_Text].Enabled = False

View 5 Replies View RelatedUpdating Specific Fields In Table
Dec 9, 2005Hello everybody. I am new to Access and as such I don’t know how to perform the following. Please help me out.
The project is about a library loan system. I have a database consisting of the following tables: member (MemCode, LName, …), book (BkCode, Title, TotalCopies,…), purchase (PurDate, BkCode, CopiesBought,…) and transaction (MemCode, BkCode, RentalDate,ReturnDate,Returned).
TotalCopies is the total no. of copies there are of the book
CopiesBought is the number of copies that have been purchased
RentalDate is the date on which book is being loaned
ReturnDate is the last date on which the book has to be returned
Returned is a Yes/No field to indicate if the book has been returned
In the library a member can take only one book at a time.
Problem 1:
The library may have several copies of a particular book, but all will have the same code. For example, a book, let’s say Harry Potter 6 has code 97. Initially only 1 copy of the book is purchased. When the librarian sees the book has great demand, he decides to purchase 3 more copies. All the copies will have the same code, i.e., 97. Only the TotalCopies will become 4.
BkCode is Autonumber in book table and Number in Purchase table. Relationship is 1:many.
I have a Purchase form to record details of books being purchased. I have a command button “Book form” that opens the book form when the user clicks on it. He will use it if the book being purchased is not already available in the library. What I want is:
(i)If he opens the book form to fill in details of the book, then when he closes the form I want the book details to automatically appear in the corresponding fields on the Purchase form.
(ii)The CopiesBought will have to be used to update the TotalCopies in the book table. How should I do this?
Problem 2:
When the user wants to record a loan, the system will need to check if that member already has a book which he has not yet returned. If it is so, then the system will need to provide a prompt to inform the user of this and consequently blocks the user from completing the transaction. How do I do this?
Thanking you in advance for your help.
Forms :: Counting How Many Fields Have A Specific Value
Nov 16, 2014I have 7 combos, which for the most part set the value in another field - however, there are two values in the combo that do not have a value attached - one is AH, the other is SK. I have two textboxes (one for AH, one for SK) that I wish to have a count (preferably running) of how many times each of these values appears in the seven combo boxes.
View 5 Replies View RelatedFields Get Cleared Out When Specific Criteria Has Been Met
Oct 1, 2012We have a PHP website that utilizes an Access 2003 SP3 database. This website is used as an authorization process for a business process in our company. On the website, 8 different people must "sign off" on the process. This sign off process simply consists of typing your name and date into two different text boxes, as well as a third drop-down menu for "APPROVED" or "DENIED". These, of course, correlate to their respective fields in the Access database.
Within the past year or so, the 8th approval section was added. Since then, there have been sporadic issues where all of the approval fields would simply be erased and everyone has to go back to the form and "re-approve" their fields. I believe we have narrowed the issue to when the 8th person signs off before the 7th person. However, the approvals are not cleared every single time this happens, but this condition exists every time data is cleared. So my question is, would this be an issue related to access, or with the coding of the website?
Validation Of Two Fields Against A Specific Range
Aug 16, 2015I am using Access 2007. This is the problem; I have a warehouse divided into four departments North, East, South, and West. Each department is assigned its own storage location range North is N1-N1000, East is E1-E1000, South is S1-S1000, and West is W1-W1000. On the access input form of my database are two fields, one combo box field for Department and one combo box field for location stored.
When the user is updating the data base for parts received or shipped, the user must enter the department and location stored to correctly debit or credit that department. The location stored entered must be assigned to the department. (Example: dept. is north and storage location is N65, the user enters D65 instead, error message is displayed, "you have entered the wrong location").
What I need is instructions how to write the code to check the fields to verify location stored matches department, and display a warning message. How do I do this? I have a table with department names and storage location ranges.

It works great returns the correct results. But I don't need everything out of Assets. I just need a few things from there and a few things from 2 other tables.
I tried this but it now gives back over 220 repeating results.

Importing Specific Excel Fields Into A Table
Nov 17, 2004Hi all~
Does anybody know how to go about running a query or macro in Access to import specific fields from all worksheets contained in an excel workbook?
Say I have ExcelFile.xls, and it has worksheets with varying names. I want to pull fields B12, B16, B20, B24, B28 from each worksheet and create a new record in a table (one new record for each worksheet). Is there an easy way to do this other than pulling the data into a Crystal Reports pivot table or some such?
