Making A Selection On Two Tables And Then RIGHT JOIN

Oct 28, 2005

Hello,

I want to comine the following queries into one so that I can alter the parameters from a webpage.

I have a users table that has the department in and I have a TimeTable Table which has dates and option codes.

I need to select everybody in a department in the example it's Logistics.
I then want to link these people to the timeTable Table based upon a field.
The problen is that I want to select only a specific week. I can do this using two queries but that isn't going to work in ASP.

The Results should be as follows:

Person Date Option
A
B 01/10/2005 1
B 02/10/2005 2
C 01/10/2005 1


The two Queries look as follows:


SELECT TimeTable.*
FROM TimeTable
WHERE (((TimeTable.Date)>=#10/24/2005# And (TimeTable.Date)<=#10/30/2005#));

The above is then saved as Query1

SELECT Users.*, Query1.*, Query1.TimeOfDay, Query1.Date
FROM Query1 RIGHT JOIN Users ON Query1.UserID = Users.ID
WHERE (((Users.Department)="Logistics"))
ORDER BY Users.Surname, Users.Firstname, Query1.TimeOfDay, Query1.Date;

Any help would be great!

Cheers,

Matt

Hi

I have a subform on which I log the times spent on any particular project.

Has anyone got any idea how I might do this - I am completely stumped.

Thanks in advance

Populate Combo Box Based On Selection In Another Combo Box (Access 2010)

Jul 11, 2012

I'm have quite a difficult time getting a form in Access 2010 to perform the way I would like it to. I have multiple tables that I've created, and a query that contains the data from the various tables. I then ran the form wizard to select the data from the query that I wanted to populate in my form and I've added 2 combo boxes.

What I want to do:
1. I want users to be able to select a category in combo box #1 (example: "Bag")
2. I want users to be able to select a detail in combo box #2 based on the category they selected in combo box #1 (example: Combo box #1, "bag" would populate the following selections for combo box #2: "sandwich" and "tool")
3. I want users to then receive a list of suppliers that provide the product they have selected, either "Bag: Sandwich" or "Bag: Tool"

I have combo box #1 populating a list of categories already. However, I am not able to get combo box #2 to provide choices based on the selection chosen for combo box #1.

Combo Box Selection Triggering 2nd Combo Box Tables

Oct 26, 2004

I'm trying to get one combo box control what tables are available from another combo box. Example, combo box (a) includes numbers 1-5. Selecting (1) makes the data in combo box (b) specific to that selection. Selecting (2) makes the data in combo box (b) something different (pulls data from a different table).

Can anyone help me with this? Thanks!

Making Combo Box Selections Dynamic To Checkboxes

Mar 10, 2006

Hello people,

Say for example, in two fields within my dropdown for Camera Status in the Maintenance table...

FIT FOR PURPOSE - Availability Checkbox = Yes

What expression do I need in expression builder, so that Selecting UNDER REPAIR or FAULTY/DAMAGED instead makes the checkbox availability turn to unchecked automatically within a form, without the need to manually change the checkbox?

How do I do this?

Thank you.

Neil.

Combo Box Populated By Selection In Other Combo Box

Jul 13, 2013

I have a form with a number of combo boxes to select criteria in order to narrow down a list. A selection in any combo box should narrow your options in the other combo boxes.

For example:

Combo 1 is a list of all the states
Combo 2 is a list of all the cities

Selecting NY in combo 1 will change the list in combo 2 so that it only shows cities in NY

Or, selecting Rochester in combo 2 first will edit the list for combo 1 to show only states that have a city named Rochester

The point in me doing this is to be able to narrow down a list of over 230000 different but similar items by varying criteria in order to track inventory and value.

Scrolling through the whole list, typing criteria in manually each time and building new queries and reports every time I need to find something specific are not options.

I just need the combo boxes in a form to set the criteria to filter out the list in real time. Each selection made needs to narrow your options for the next selection.

Combo Box Selection

Jan 10, 2006

I have a form with 4 text boxes that are populated from a query with an unbound cbo box to make the choice from. There are two fields that show on the dropdown, "Customer" and "New Product Name". I created it all with wizards. Most of the Customers have only one product name but some have several. If I choose a customer that has several products, it always selects the customer with the first product it finds. How can I get it to select the Customer by product? I have looked and seen what looked like what I needed on this forum, but I couldn't make it work. I am not good a VB. Thanks in advance for any help that you can give.

Combo Box Selection

Dec 13, 2006

I have had some help on this previously but its not working the way i wanted.

I have a form called plan distribution which holds a record of all people who need a copy of a certain plan. There are several hundred contacts held in the database and i want to make this as easy as possible to choose the right ones.

To do this i want to have 3 combo boxes. One each for company, department and contact.

On the plan distribution form i want the user to select which company they want. The department combo box will then automatically show all departments within that company.

Once the user selects the department, the final combo box will hold all contacts within that department.

I have tried several ways of doing this but cant find one that works!

HELP!

Form Won't Stay Put When Opened

Nov 8, 2005

I have a Main Form that utilizes tabs to control several other forms by opening, closing and making them visible/invisible. One of the forms needs to be closed when its tab on the Main form is unselected. The problem is that once the form is closed, when it opens up again it opens right infront of my Main form's tab control so I need to move it down an inch to get to the tab control.

I've positioned this form where I want it and saved it numerous times. But once I select the tab, it opens up right ontop of the Main form's tab control again. I have the AutoResize set to No and the Auto Center also set to No.

Any ideas how I can get this form to stay put?

Any help is most appreciated. Thanks.

Zipcode Field - I Need The Zero To Stay Put!

Nov 18, 2006

In the zip code field of my form, if the first number of the zip code is a zero, such as 02436, the zero is deleted as soon as I leave that field. The zero won't stay and I want it to so I will have a valid 5 digit zip code. In other words, as soon as I leave the field the zipcode is changed to read 2436 - without the zero. How do I fix that? Thanks.

Combo Restricted Selection

Mar 8, 2005

Hello,

I have Customers recorded and a number of addresses associated with each customer.

They are in two tables linked by CustomerID and are shown in forms as frmCustomers & subfrmCustomerAddresses.

From frmCustomers, I open another form which records the orders maid by that customer. What I would like on this form is to select the customer address to be used for the order.

I can build a combo, but this shows all addresses on the database. What I would like for the combo to show only the addresses for that customer only.

I do not want two combos, one which selects the customer and then another which shows the addresses. This is not very user friendly to ask for the customer again. I would like one combo to show addresses for the customer on the form.

I would be grateful for any guidance on how I can achieve this.

Thank you.

Combo Box Record Selection

Aug 1, 2005

I have a Main Form
Main Form [Event],[Category],[Judge Name]
The Main Form also has a subforms
Sub1[Event],[Category],[Judge Name],[Score],[Comments]

On the main form I have a combo box that is set to retrieve records that meet the combo selection. and thus the subform is related to display the corresponding records.

In my selection combo box I see all of the various selections as follows
[Judge Name],[Category],[Event]
and it is bound to the judges name

Problem Example:
Pull Down Values
1.[Sherry],[Fitness],[Mrs. Canada]
2.[Sherry],[Swim Suit],[Mrs. Canada]

In the above when i pull down the combo box to select and I select the first example above all is wonderful ; however if i want to select the second row the [Category] and [Event] Do not change and the information i input into the subform ends up being associated to the wrong category.

How do i bind a combo box to more than one [field] on the form

I have over 50 hours into this DB to this point and this is critical.

Combo Selection Comes Up WRONG

Aug 30, 2005

I have a form with combo boxes for selecting products to be purchased.

When a product is selected, the price appears in a text box. This is working fine by making the bound column of the combo box the field containing the price.

When I have two different products that have the same price, however, the combo box always displays the name of the first item of that price.

For example, a jar of Lavendar Oil costs $12 and a Small Exercise Ball costs $12. The Combo list is sorted alphabetically. When I select the Small Exercise Ball, I get the $12 in the text box, but Lavendar Oil shows up in the combo.

How do I make the combo show what I'm selecting? I assume it's something with the bound column, but can't find the resolution.

I hope someone is able to help me with this................

Combo Selection Does Not Show

I have a combo box set up to select a product and put the price into a text box. I am getting the cost showing up in the text box Therapy_Cost just fine, but the combo box itself does not display anything after I select something.

Combo Box Will Not Display Selection

Dec 14, 2005

I have a form that calculates freight costs. I'm using a combo box for the user to select the route of the shipment from shipping port to destination port. The combo box has 2 fields. The index which is stored in the database and the description which is displayed to the user. I used the wizard to create the combo box and set the index to be saved in a table. Everything works fine, the freight cost is calculated correctly and the data is stored as designed.

The problem is when if the user goes back later and opens the screen to view the freight information, the combo box doesn't display what was selected previously. Therefore, no freight is calculated and the user has to reselect the combo box again. When I check the table, the index value of what was selected is in the table, but it will not display in the combo box.

. . . . Additional info to this post. . . . The combo box is set to use a data from a standard table. The user can only select what is displayed in the list. However, the index is then stored in another table after the selection is made. I want the combo box to do something like, if a selection was previously made then displayed what was select, if not, then display the data from the standard table.

What did I do wrong during the set up? Thanks for your help solving this problem.

Jeff
