Sequentially Number Records

Jan 10, 2007

Hi, i have a query which contains two fields: PtId and visitdate. I'd like to create a field that sequentially numbers the visits.

If you're really smart, the second part of my problem involves computing the time from the last (or max) visit to the visit before it. I was thinking if I had the visits numbered it would make this task easier, but if there is another way, that would be even better!
Thanks so much for your help!

Sequentially Numbering The Records In A Query

Jan 27, 2006

I need to add a column to a sorted query which effectively numbers from 1 to N. It is intended as a ranking field for later statistical analysis.

I can do this manually by saving the query as a table, then introducing a new autonumber field.

However, I need to do this automatically, as this is just one query out of many in a large and complex setup. Is it possible to add an autonumber field to a query?

Access Forms To Display Records

Oct 16, 2015

I have a form on access, that displays data for the customer and products that he has purchased. I want to set it up in such a way that if I click on the customer it shows all the products he has purchased. And if i click on the products, it goes to the product information page(form).

I currently have a form in which I have put in two text boxes that have the product and customer fields as data source. The form displays records from a query that is used to filter the customer's purchased products sorted ascending.

The form is working partly correct. It displays only one product from the customer that is in ascending order but not all. If I add more text boxes, it displays the same first product repeatedly.How can I set it up as to display all the products that the customer bought for each customer?

Making A Listbox Display A List From A Single Field (cell)

Sep 29, 2005

:confused: :confused: :confused:
Hello, I am new here to the forum.

I have a list box on a form that i want to display a list from a single cell or a table in my access database. The list in this cell is a list seperated by commas such as.....

Field 1 Field 2
example a, b, c, d

I want my listbox to display the list from the first cell in field 2.

Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks,

Kevin :)

PS I know something similar can be done in visual basic. For example, a simple program can be written to take a list (seperated by commas (,) ) and then display this list in a listbox on the form. Is there a way that the simple code such as that can be altered to work in access?

Access 97 Can Not Display Records By Entry Order

Making Records Inaccesable

Sep 13, 2005

i have a form hooked up to a table (pretty obvious i guess). anyway, what i would like be to able to do is be able to enter multiple entries, navigate them using the navigation buttons, close the form, then reopen and not be able to use the navigation buttons to look at ones that have previously been entered.

i could use the onclose function to run a query taking the results from the table and putting them into a different table while deleting the table hooked up to the form, but i was wondering if there is a way to accomplish this using just the one table.

please help.

Making Control Boxes Show 0 If No Records

Aug 17, 2006

I have a form where the records are propulated by ane xpression, which checks and sums database values.

Sometimes, the control boxes are empty as there is no data to sum for a particular record. Is there a way to get the control box to show the value 0 ?

I've tried default's, etc. but that doesn't seem to work...probably because the expression returns a NULL value.

I know it can be done using IIf but that will complicate the formulas even further.
Is there perhaps a way to do it using code instead ?

Modules & VBA :: Table With Auto Number Key Field That Is Numbered Sequentially

Oct 10, 2013

I have a table (tblContact) with an auto number key field that is numbered sequentially (1-8) there are no deletions, each new record is appended.I wrote a simple FindFirst line to locate a record that is the first record in the table. The FindFirst failed to find the record.So, I wrote a Do Until Loop that cycles through each record looking for the record that I want to find (the first record with key field 1).

Code:

rstContact.MoveFirst
Debug.Print "ContactID: " & rstContact.Fields("ContactID")
Debug.Print "CEmployerID: " & rstContact.Fields("CEmployerID") & vbCrLf

Do Until rstContact.EOF
Debug.Print "ContactID: " & rstContact.Fields("ContactID")
Debug.Print "CEmployerID: " & rstContact.Fields("CEmployerID") & vbCrLf

This works to find the first record... eventually, because it does not begin its search at the first record. The results in the immediate window are below.

Code:

ContactID: 4
CEmployerID: 2
ContactID: 4
CEmployerID: 2
ContactID: 5
CEmployerID: 4

[code]...

I believe the field CEmployerID is unrelated to the issue. I am also attaching screen shots of the table "tblContact" and code with immediate window. I have tried indexing and not indexing the CEmployerID field in the Contact table to no avail. Even though the Do Until Loop eventually finds my record,

MS Access Freezes Making Mde

Nov 30, 2007

Ok, so I've converted the database to 2003, split the database, compacted and repaired, but when I go to make an mde of the fe, the system "hangs" I even let it run overnight with no results. There's no error messages, nothing.... it looks like it creates a temporary database called "db1" but it never completes the conversion. Any ideas? Am I missing something simple? I have a feeling I am.

Making A Access Workout Journal?

Sep 8, 2006

hey all.
I used to know how to use access, and now haven't used it for years and I am having trouble getting started.
I wanted to make a journal that I could enter in data of an exercise routine.

But the thing is I have no idea how to get started.

I want to be able to add in a workout data for each day monday - friday (each a different body part).
do I make several tables? or just one?

Here is an example of all the data I want to put in, got a picture here
http://members.optusnet.com.au/~adrianloh01/workout.JPG


I find the excel version is messy and a form would be an easier way to save the data and easier to refer back to. If anyone has any idea's on how to do this thanks!

Making An Access Application Bilingual

Jan 21, 2005

Hello there,

I'm currently developing an MS Access 2002 application that I'd like to be bilingual.

I'm used to making bilingual stuff but for websites and I find it quite different to do it efficiently when dealing with forms.

Currently, I have tried to use a web technique and convert it for my forms.

Basically, I have a table that holds all my labels, classified by categories and owners, then when I load form, I do some VBA scripting to replace the content of my captions.

and it works...but because I always have to mess with a recordset, it gives me a feeling that its crappy and sluggish.

I have tried saving the recordset in XML and using the DOM to do XPath queries on the document (like I do for a website) but I'm not really used to dealing with the DOM object directly and its beginning to turn in a nightmare to run a XPath query with all those undeclared namespaces and all...

well anyway...all I meant to ask was what *you* do to make it efficiently bilingual ?

Thank you :)

Making Call List In Access

Jul 5, 2012

We have 4 managers and 16 foreman. Each month a manager is tasked with calling 4 foreman for progress reports.

I'd like to create a simple program with Access to have the foreman assigned to the managers differently each month. It would have to remember the past 4 months so the same names aren't assigned to the same managers. It also has to randomly assign the foremen so the managers don't have the same foreman after 4 months (if that makes sense).

Access On A Wireless Network - Making It Work

Jan 23, 2007

There are posts elsewhere on this forum about the adjustments you can make to Access to improve its performance on a wireless network, i.e. make sure you have XP SP2 and not an earlier version of XP, but the fact is that no programme will perform well on a network if the network isn't performing well. Here are a few things I've learned (the hard way!)

- Use USB wireless adapters, not card type adapters. One of the prime rules of wireless networking is to keep your adapter - and your Router - away from electrical equipment and metal objects, so why anyone even makes card adapters is beyond me.

- Place your adapters/Router as high as possible (above head height is best) using a USB extension lead for the adapters if necessary. Do not put them on or near metal filing cabinets!

- Think about line of sight when placing your equipment. If your Router and an adaptor are just on either side of a wall , opposite each other, the signal may only have to pass through, say, 6 inches of wall. If they are at opposite ends of their respective rooms, however, it may have to pass through several feet of the same wall!

-If there are other wireless systems nearby using the same channel as yours, change yours to a different channel even if the other signal is weaker than yours. Remember that you need to be 5 channels away from anyone else before there is 0% overlap in the frequencies. If you cannot achieve this because there are too many nearby networks, any difference is better than none.


I have a 9 user (each in a separate room) p2p network in my office running a split Access 2000 db. The place looks a bit odd with USB adapters stuck high up on the walls but it works. Only one user has the occasional hanging problem (about once a week) but she's using an oldish laptop with only 256k of RAM and it has to run Norton Internet Security at the same time. Three of the users have the db open more or less constantly, the rest have no problem or speed issues getting in whenever they wish.


Nearly forgot, our Wireless system is standard 802.11g. max distance from an adapter to the router is about 80 feet.

Sorry if any of the above is stating the obvious, thought it might help.

Making Access 2000 Forms, Non Editable

Could anyone out there tell me if it is possible to make the output on an Access form read only.

Mainly I am saving recipes on a form, and I don't want my children to be able to add anything to a record once it has been saved.

Reports :: Making Sales Sheet On Access Using Existing Table

Aug 29, 2013

I have a table which has the fields: Agentname,SaleDate,Branch,Sales, Percentage, Comission, Corrections, rent and Total

Total = Sales-comission+Corrections+rent

This table has the name of the agent that made the sale, the branch(location) where he made it, the date, the commission of how much he gets from the sale, Corrections which is various correction that need to be made like a refund and or bonuses, Rent which he pays and the total.

what i want to do is to get access to make me a sheet( a sales invoice) where i can see the sales for a specific agent for a specific branch. agents can work at multiple branches.

so lets say agent A on branch A sold 400 on 1/8, 300 on 2/8 and 500 on 5/8 i want to get a list of all the days from 1/8 till 31/8 and the records of 1/8, 2/8 and 5/8 automatically attached to the correct dates and the rest of the dates should have a value of 0.

Queries :: Making A Table From A Select Query In Access 2013

Jan 21, 2014

I have made a new access 2013 database. I have created a linked table that has imported a substantial amount of data from an external data source, (an Excel spreadsheet). So far no problem. I created a select query that plucked data from the original table mentioned. Again, no problem. Then I decided to create another table, using certain fields only from the select query. Microsoft's guide tells me to start with CREATE, then Table design. I am happy to use just 4 fields from my query, but what I keep ending up with is a table, that, when I double click on it gives me the following:

ID Field1 Field2 Click to add
(New)

It is presumably expecting me to enter an ID number and it will come up with some record, but I want a complete table that should show several hundred records.
