I have created an access database to track orders through out production. I have also created a form labeled "orders" with a subform where it has all the orders information, customer info and product info. Along with this there are 3 check boxes for each order they are labeled, "Routed", "Pressed" "Finished". I am looking for a macro for when I click the "finished" check box that order is moved to another form to reduce the amount of clutter on the orders form. Is there anyway to do this?
I have a form that a user fills out and the record is not uploaded to the database until the user hits the submit button. In other words, if the user closes the form without saving, the record is not inserted.
My end goal is to have the user click the button and have 3 things happen:
1) Record inserted into the database 2) A PDF of the record is saved to a per-identified directory 3) An outlook new message window opens with recipients pre-entered and the newly created PDF included as an attachment.
I can achieve steps 1 and 2 no problem. However, the way I get the PDF is by having the VBA simply print and the user selects the Adobe PDF. This does not let the VBA dictate the directory (or file name) and then makes me completely stumped for step 3.
I'm enrolling medical centers in a new multi-center database. There are a number of steps that must be completed before the center is enrolled in the project. I have a form that serves as a checklist. I want the textbox at the bottom of the form to display the percentage of steps completed. I guess you would have to count the number of fields on the form that are filled in, but I don't know how to do it.
is there away to filter rows when certain values in three different tables are the same. e.g. it is a stock control db - so when goods orded = goods in = goods taken - can this then be filtered automatically to hide rows and avoids congestion on the user interface (form)?
I would like a textbox in my vendor form to display the number of times that the vender’s name appears in a jobs-completed table during a particular calendar year. I’m not sure where to start. I have tried building a query as follows:
SELECT Count(tblCompletedJobs.Job#) AS CountOfJobs FROM tblCompletedJobs HAVING (((tblCompletedJobs.DateOfEngagement)>=#1/1/2006#));
I am working with a training database. I am a fresh newbie to access (more of an excel user).
I need to find employee's who have never completed a certain training (DPW Medication Training), which is mandatory.
I have the following tables: Employee data TBL - Contains active ee's names CompletedTrainings - Contains all trainings completed by individual Events - name of all the trainings, including mandatory trainings
I have the following queries: DPW Med Training - Lists all who have completed the training DPW-Med-Last - Lists when each employee last had the training Med_01 - Lists those who have had the training, but need it renewed
I am trying to write a more complex macro that will start another macro at a preset time, however I am getting stopped at the first hurdle - getting a macro to run another macro.
Here is the code i am using at the moment, all I want to do currently is click the first button, then get the second macro to execute. But no luck, getting error 2157 "cannot find the procedure"
I have some code that checks if a file exists, its file size, creation date and date modified. The code works fine..however..
I need to import the file it is checking and that file can sometimes take up to 30 minutes to complete its posting. In fact I used the code to check it the other day and the code showed that it exists, its creation/modifed date and also its file size - however, the file size was what it was at that moment I ran the code. If I immediately re-run the code, the file size changes - obviously due to the fact that the file is still posting (and growing due to the date being posted to it). Also note that the (completed) file size will vary each day the file is posted
So, what I would like to know is, is their a way to check to see if a file has completed posting? Something akin to .filecreated like .filecompleted (yes or no) type thing?
Here is the code:
Public Sub sub_chk_files2() Dim obj_fs As Object Dim obj_folder As Object Dim obj_files As Object Dim obj_f1 As Object Dim db As DAO.Database
I have created an append query to update completed courses to a previous education table.
INSERT INTO Education ( ID, [Qualification Name], [Level], [Date Achieved] ) SELECT Courses.ID, Courses.CourseName, Courses.CourseLevel, Courses.CertRecvDate FROM Courses WHERE (((Courses.CertRecvDate) Is Not Null) AND ((Courses.CourseCompleted)=True));
The theory here is if CourseCompleted checkbox is check and there is a value in CertRecvDate, the qualification has been achieved and therefore should be added to the previous education table (which will be used later for CV's etc)
The problem I face is I only want it to add any particular course once to the previous education table and not every time the query is executed. I am thinking I need to pass the CourseID field aswell to the education table and somehow check to see if that has been already added .
I have attached a screenshot showing the structure of the two tables.
Hi all, I basically have a long form which requires me to use the right side scroll bar to complete everything.
I currently have a top header area (which is great because it is viewable even as you scroll all the way down).
I'm wondering if Access is capable of having a "side header" (for lack of better words), i.e. on the right hand side have just a few buttons or fields that always stays there even though I scroll all the way down the form? This would work the same way as the header, just on the side instead.
Hello. I have a question that seems simple but I can't get it to work. Any help would be appresiated.
I need a form that will pull the oldest record from one table, allow the user to add a few fields to the record, then paste the record to a different table. when it is done the original record has to be removed from the original table.
I have tried using a append Query, but it moves all of the records at once and doesn't allow data entry on each record. I'm not sure if this would be done by a Query, Form or Macro. I have laid out the nessacary data flow below incase there is an easier way to do this.
Persons A,B, and C enters data into table 1. later person D pulls the oldest record from table 1, reads the data then adds fields to the record and records it to table 2. The information is then removed from table 1. Person D then goes onto the next record from table 1. When person D is done, there will be no data left in table 1.
Any Ideas? or can someone point me in the right direction for help?
I have a continuous form that shows the main fields in my table. In the page footer of the form I have a tab control that has 4 additional fields for each record. I want to give the user the option of “Show Details”. When the user clicks on “show details” I want to move the tab control with the additional fields to the detail row so the user can see them.
I know how to move controls with VBA by setting the Top and Left properties and how to expand the detail size, but how do I move controls from one section on the form to another section on the form i.e. from the page footer to the detail section
I have a form we use for data entry, and not all the fields willhave data in them. When we click the new record button the cursor stays in the field where it was for the last record. We would like the cursor to move to the first field on the form everytime a new record is started. Can anyone help me out here??
i have a form, where a user inputs a account number inputting the account number, then populates all the relevant table fields, into the form for the user to edit.however if there is more than one account, with that account number, how do i get it so they can cycle through on the form?
Is it possible to set a property to allow the user to click and drag an open form out of the Microsoft Access 2010 parent window? Specifically to a second monitor.
We have a form, which has a field linked to a "Recipients" table through a lookup. The field is bound to the recipient's name, but the lookup displays additional columns for user to identify the correct recipient in the case of duplicate names.
The "Payment" table's Recipient field only displays the recipient's name. So where duplicates occur, it's impossible to know which recipient is the correct one associated to a payment.
I would like to add an additional field to the "Payment" table called "RecipientIDNo". I need a way to auto-populate this field, based on the already existing Recipient field. Is this possible?
Why I just don't modify the recipient field on our payment form to be bound to the user ID number, there are two reasons.
(1) The field is linked to too many other reports and queries at this point. I believe it could cause an enormous amount of work to modify. (2) the form likes to display whatever it is bound to. There may be a workaround for this, but I'm not aware of it and don't want the form displaying a number instead of a recipient name.
I'm trying to make a form with a single text box that will search for the contents of the text box in a table. Once it finds a match, it moves the record into another table. Anyone know how to do this?
I have a form with a subform in it. The subform is actually going to actually have more information and is going to take up the majority of the form. The reason why it's the subform instead of the main form is because of the nature of the parent/child relationship.
Layout-wise I'd like to have the content of the main form in the top left, with the subform taking up the space from the top right down to the bottom. This ends up covering the content of the main form in the top left. I tried using the Send to Back function on the subform but it still blocks the main form.If there's no easy way then I guess I'll just have to have the entirety of the subform below the main form content.
If I have a field in a tabbed form (the form has pages), can this field be moved from a tab to another programatically?
The form is called "ProjectMain". The field is called "Lenght" and the page (form tab) it is on is "specs1". Sometimes I need to have this field in the page (form tab) "specs2"
I have a primary school database. I'm trying to create a form that allows a teacher to select their class, then select a subject and then be presented with a data entry form in a table layout that lists only their student's names in one column and an empty column to input results for the selected subject.
To simplify my explanation to just three tables, lets say my tables are: > Students....which stores student names plus a foreign key for their class > Classes...which stores the class name > Results...which stores all the results (fields are: ResultID (key), StudentID, SubjectID, Result, DateofResult)
I have no problems creating reports where the teacher selects their class from a combo box to generate a report based on a crosstab query. But this one has me stumped.
I have a form with lots of combo boxes and text boxes. They are all linked to various MS Access tables and some of the fields are mandatory. I would like do an check to see if all the mandatory fields are not null i.e. are populated with a value and then run an update query for my master table in the database to flag the records as being complete if all the mandatory fields are populated.
If (IsEmpty(tab1.cmb_a)) Then do something
But I am just blank at the moment on how to proceed, especially on how I can do all the checks and then populate the database.
I have 2 tables, one is like a main table, containing all of the main data, such as a Job Number, Customer, Quantity, etc. I have a second, related, table that acts a breakdown of information. There may be several related records to one main record, it entirely depends on the nature of the job.
What I'd like to do is run a function that looks at a main record, checks if all the related records COMPLETED field is ticked and then tick a field in the main record. I only want it to do this for records where all of the related records are COMPLETED.
