One more question... I'm loving Access... much more than Lotus Approach!! :-) Here's something I've wanted to do in Approach... how do I do this in Access???
REPORT showing all customers
1. John Doe, owes 9.00
2. Jane Kane, owes 10.00
3. Rob Johnson, owes 30.00
4. Albert Icar, owes 22.00
5. Johnny James, owes 5.00
Query all customers owing more than 10.00 (in this example it would be Rob and Albert).
In the report, I want Rob and Albert's name to be red font only, while everyone else is just regular black font.
Thanks to all posters who have assisted me thusfar, and anyone that can help with this.
I would like to have Access launch an Outlook email with a specific font (Arial). How could that be accomplished?
Here's my code:
Private Sub cmdEmailAO_Click()

Set OApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OMail = OApp.CreateItem(0)

;) Hey everybody,
I am working on a database used in recording device characteristics/test information. The main table of information has dozens of columns for test/part detailed information. When inputing the data for each specific test, many of the info. details are repeated when testing say 20 devices of the same part all at once. Rather than retype every piece of detailed information in every field, everytime, is there an easier way? Does anyone know of a way to make specific fields copy/paste the previous record's information in the fields automatically when a new record is created? Please, if anyone could help or has ANY ideas, let me know...
Thanks

In my current database there seems to be two different types of borders in my pop-up forms! The best way to explain it is that some forms will have the Access style border while others have the glass style border that you see in windows. I can't seem to find any settings that will change this or even determine what causes it.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am experiencing a problem in MS Access 2013. I have a form which was working just fine until now. It has form labels in Calibri font and their font colour is one shade lighter than black. Today, I changed the font colour of the form labels to be Automatic - black (shows as 'Text 1' colour in the form properties). I did this in Design view.
I find that when I switch to layout view, the font of the labels appears as Century Gothic. This is the font that appears in the Form view. So while the font colour is correctly changed, the font name is not what I had set in the Design view. When I go back to the Design view, and change the font colour back to the original colour which was one shade lighter than black (Text 1, Lighter 50%), the font is correct in the Layout view and the Form view (Calibri).
So it seems that there is some sort of binding between the font colour (black) and the font name (Century Gothic). When I change the font colour, the font also changes. When I restore the original colour (one shade lighter than black), the font Calibri is correctly retained.
It is a strange effect I get when switching among records.
In a form I have a TAB Control with some pages, when I open the form everything is ok:
But, when switching continuosly among records, the font becomes strange, looking like being bold.
It seems to happen only when using TAB control or, if you prefer, only on every TAB control's page except for the first one. Tried on different pc with different resolution.
Hi all,
title says it all!
I've got a form with numerous controls and labels. When i first open the form, all looks fine - all labels are Black Arial 8 Bold. But when i start scrolling through the records, the text on three of my text labels gets bolder. I haven't a clue what is causing this - the labels are just standard - two are associated with controls and one is all on its own.
I have no code written to do this, and in fact i'm not sure you could write code to do this. I've tried renaming the labels, changing the font, deleting and recreating them, but it's always the same three that get darker.
Ideas?
P.
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.
I am using a barcode font in order to generate a number as a barcode on my report records. In order for my barcode scanner to read the barcode it needs an asterisk at the beginning and at the end.
So, if my record ID is 62 - in order for the barcode to be displayed correctly, it needs to be on the report as *62* .
Without digressing into a discussion on barcode methods in Access, how can I precede and succeed each ID number field with an asterisks?
In an Access 2010 form is it possible to export select records and fields in those records to a specific location?

.InitialFilename = "C:"
.Show
If .SelectedItems.Count = 0 Then

The user can select the directory using the code above, but can specific fields in records be exported to a excel workbook in that selected directory?For example, if the are 5 records in the database can the fields LastName,FirstName,BirthDate in records 1,2,3 be exported to Setup.xlsx in that selected directory?
I have been able to successfully solve the problem of my pages showing relevant records by using form control.
How should I make my form display a new record everytime I open it? So, that when a lame user opens it , he wouldnt change the existing data on an existing record. How to solve this problem?
Kindly help. thanks
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 ?
I have records of vehicles numbered from B1 to B300. Can I make Access display records in the sequence B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 instead of B1 B10 B100 B101 etc?

I have a table that shows many departments with credit card transactions. I like to run a query to see specific department, or have an option to see all the departments when the query is run.
I have the following code in the click event of my button,
Code:Dim strCriteria As StringstrCriteria = "[1stApproval]='-1'"DoCmd.OpenForm "FrmLookupRecords", acNormal, , strCriteria
However when I click the button, there was an error that says,
Quote: The OpenForm action was cancelled. You used a method of the DoCmd object to carry out an action in Visual Basic, but then clicked Cancel in a dialog box. For example, you used the Close method to close a changed form, then clicked Cancel in the dialog box that asks if you want to save the changes you made to the form
What does this error mean? I want to open a form that only shows approved records and the column "1stApproval" is a Yes/No field. Thanks for any help!

Hello,
I'm sure this has a simple solution, but iv searched this forum and every solution that i get is filled with code that goes over my head! Well here goes...
I have a main form called expense... which contains a tab control. the tabcontrol in turn has three pages containing a subform each. (lets call them sbfrm1 sbfrm2 and sbrm3.)
All three subforms are based on three different queries (say Qry1 Qry2 and Qry3) but the three queries are based on the same table. this table contains all the expenses incurred over the months across three categories (hence three queries). the subforms are to display these expenses according to categories.. i.e. sbfrm1 displays records pertaining to Category1, sbfrm2 for category2 etc.(the queries ensure that!)
when the main form opens, the subforms display all the records in the table according to category...but not according to the month in which the expenditure was incurred.
I now want to add a feature that enables the user to choose records pertaining to a given month at the click of a button.
for eg. if there is an option group named month, (with toggle buttons as the month names), then if the user selects the month Aug, then immediately the subform1 displays records under category1 for the month Aug? However I want to include an "ALL" option as well whereby all the records are displayed for all months (the category criteria must be maintained at any cost!!!!
Is there a solution that will not use too much code!
Thanks in advance.
i have a table
ID - File Type - Source - Delivery - Return
1 - X - LB - ROY - LB via Roy
2 - Y - USA - Smith - USA via Smith
3 - Z - LB - -
my question is how can i make the last column (Return) to fill like the data above..what i mean if (Delivery) not null So the return will be filled like the above if the (Delivery) is null the return will be null too
-the user will fill only the columns (File Type - Source - Delivery)
-the column (Return) will be filled automatically if (Delivery) not null
I am working on a Human Resources database for a big project that has a field called 'Position Number' (eg. 290) which is unique for each position. But the position can have up to 4 different stages over the life of the project which is shown in the primary key field 'Position ID' (eg. 290-A, 290-B, 290-C). There are columns for each month of the life of the project and If the Start Date and End Date of the position are in between these months then a number one will appear in the Month column.
For example, position 290 will start at level A (290-A) and will start on Jan-14 and finish on Aug14. The next stage of the project will start and position 290 will do the same role in a different area of the project (290-B) and will start on Nov-14 until May-15. Therefore the 48 columns with months as headings from Jan-14 to Dec-17 will show a number one in those months from Jan-14 to Aug-14 and Nov-14 to May-15.
There are over 150 position numbers with up to 4 different position ID's which is phased throughout the 4 years of the project. I need to do a count of how many "number ones" are in the monthly columns per Position.
Hi!
I need a help.
I would like to (if possible) to place into Form an object that could create a Tree-like menu structure. The source from this object should be table/query.
Is this possible?
Many thanks.

I have a staff database in my office which holds, amongst other things a list of staff holiday taken. Presently the staff have no access to view holidays because they will also be able to view other employees details. What I need to do is enable members of staff to see their own holiday, but no others and Im really not sure how to go about it.
I have a workgroup in place; so each user has their own login/password.
Any ideas would be gratefully received.
Thanks,
Adam.
