Here goes my problem, and how I am attempting to solve it, but I am open to advice.
I have a table that contains all of the bird species in the US; (fields: common name, scientific name, species ID) I want to be able to update another table, (birds to chase) with particular bird species that I have not yet seen, (fields: species ID, common name, scientific name) and link that to a sub form that links to another table (chase birds locations) which shows geographic location data as to where I might be able to see new/unseen birds; (fields: species ID, date, other geographic data).
My problem is this. I created a form for the unseen birds table that allows me to only select a bird using a combo box of birds from the larger table of US birds. I want to select a bird using the common name in this box, and have it automatically populate the scientific name and the species ID into the birds to chase table. I link this tables to the location table using species ID.
A workaround that I have used is to close the form, run two update queries that populate the proper fields for scientific name and species ID and to re-open the forms. Although this works, when I return to the form it does not return me to the proper record, so that I can enter data into the sub-form.
Obviously this is a workaround and will work for me in the short run, but I want to learn how to do it properly within Access 2003.
I'm not a programmer and hence do not have access to the .NET tools or Visual Basic. Any hints for me out there?
I have a DLOOKUP which is used to auto populate a field on my Income Commitment Form based on a field on my Expenditure Commitment Form.It works perfectly when you enter a new commitment.Currently you enter a new Expenditure Commitment, save it but don't close it, then from the Expenditure Commitment Form there is is a button to enter a related Income Commitment. You save the Income commitment then close it, then close the expenditure form and you are on the Client screen with both these forms now showing as subforms, both have record selectors.
My issue is, that sometimes the Expenditure Subjective can change, so from the client form you use the record selector to open the Expenditure Commitment and select the correct Subjective, you then save it and close it. You should then click on the Income Record selector which opens the income commitment, but when you re-click on the Combo42 button, it doesn't reselect the Income subjective and I think it is because the Expenditure Commitment which is what it is looking up isn't open. My issue is how do I get the DLOOKUP to work and refer to the Commitment Form if it is a new commitment, or the Subform if I have gone back in through the record selector.Here is the code I have.
Private Sub Combo42_AfterUpdate() If (Me.Combo42 = 1) Then Me.IncomeSubjective = DLookup("[Subjective]", "tblIncomeSubjective", "[ExpSubjective]='" & Forms![frmCommitments]![cmbSubjective] & "'") Me.OtherIncomeConfirmed.Enabled = False Me.OtherConfirmedBy.Enabled = False
I have a subform that has the Expense Code from the Expense Codes Table and I want to look up the Description (yes I know its not correctly spelled in the formula but it is in the table)
I am looking to use a "If" statement with DLookup to find a record and see if the field name begins with "TW" as the characters. Here is what I have so far:
Code:
Dim matchCriteria As String matchCriteria = "LIKE 'TW*'" If DLookup("end_user", "tbl_module_repairs", "prikey = " & Me.txt_rid1.Value) = matchCriteria Then MsgBox "Success" Else MsgBox "FAILURE" End If
I am trying to switch between two sets of pricing for customers that begin with "TW" and then all else. Would the use of a "case" statement be better? If so I do not have the "end_user" bound to the form so I would need to embed Dlookup in the "case" method.
I have a command button on a Access 2010 form that i am using as my switchboard. On this form i have a hidden unbound text box that captures the users environ"username". When the user hits a command button on the form the code looks at the name in the hidden textbox that captures the environ"username" and then DLooks up a table to see if there is a match. If yes then it will open the next form and if not then a message box appears.
Code: Private Sub Command6_Click() Dim TxtUsername As String If Me.TxtUsername = DLookup("[OneLondon Login]", "TblAccessUsers") Then DoCmd.OpenForm "Bakerloo_Main_Form" Exit Sub Else MsgBox "You do not have permission to access this database" End If End Sub
This works fine apart from the fact it will only read the first name entered in the table. This table(TblAccessUsers) could have up to 50 names in it and possibly have names removed and re added at a later date. Is there a way i can get the code to look up every name in the table ??
I have a nested DLookup in a SQL UPDATE that is not working. The DLookup has an "AND" in the WHERE Statement as well. I cannot figure out the problem. I got a type mismatch with this code and when I take out the single quotes I do not get an error message but the data is not updated in the table.
Code: Public Sub test() Dim frm As Form Set frm = Forms!StationLevelSummary
[code]...
At the bottom im printing the content of the controls which are on my form. These should return 1 number, but for some reason it does not. Ive used this code many times but I cant figure out why nothing is being returned.
I'm pretty familiar with getting values from a table via Dlookup. What I want to do is almost the reverse if possible? I'm declaring a variable as follows:
Dim Ref as string Ref = [lead_id]
This is from a form.What I'd like to be able to do is go to the table [list], reference the lead ID in the table via the variable then change the field [status] to "INCALL".Can this be done in a similar way to Dlookup?
UPDATE - here is the code I am trying to use
Dim ref As String ref = [lead_id] Dim MySQL As String MySQL = "UPDATE vicidial_list SET" MySQL = MySQL & "vicidial_list.status = 'INCALL' " MySQL = MySQL & "WHERE (((vicidial_list.status)= Ref))" DoCmd.RunSQL MySQL
Dim a As Double Dim b As String b = Right(RepMonth, 4) a = DLookup("[EUR/TRY]", "Plan_FX_RATES", "YEAR = '" & b & "'") Debug.Print a Debug.Print b Debug.Print RepMonth
At the moment I have a form (InputFrm) for operators to enter production processes into the system. Each one of these has a certain weight which the operators enter and it all stores in InputTbl, which works great.
However I am trying to have a running total of the kilograms inputted on each day displaying when a new record is opened. To do this I have created a query (DailyDataQry) which provides me a running sum of how much input has gone through the process, and I can clearly see the data in this query.
I am attempting to have a text box in the upper right of my form which displays this number as after a certain weight of input the operators are needed to perform checks.
This is the code I have at the moment in the control source of a text box (DailyInputTotalTxt), but it is just returning a blank:
The work date is generated automatically when the new record is created by having Date() in the default value of the work date (WorkDateAtxt) on the form.
Is there any way which I can use this value to lookup the current total of input contained within DailyDataQry?
I am trying to run this code but getting a run time error 94 - null value - when it shouldn't be.I am thinking I have written the Dlookup incorrectly?
Code: Private Sub txtProductName_Click() Dim iProdType As Integer Dim ProductID As Integer iProdType = DLookup("ProductTypeID", "tblProduct", "ProductID" = Forms![frmBooking]![cboProductID].[Value]) Note ProductID in an integer
How can I diagnose this or what could the solution be?
I set up an Access 2003 database where this code works OK:
Private Sub Street_Exit(Cancel As Integer)
Me.Suburb = DLookup("Suburb", "Streets", "StreetName = Forms![Add A New Member]!Street") Me.StreetID = DLookup("ID", "Streets", "StreetName = Forms![Add A New Member]!Street") Me.Postcode = DLookup("Postcode", "Streets", "StreetName = Forms![Add A New Member]!Street") Me.Town = DLookup("Town", "Streets", "StreetName = Forms![Add A New Member]!Street")
End Sub
I've now migrated the tables to a back-end in Azure using ODBC to connect. The linked Streets table in my list displays as dbo_Streets but when I change the table name in my code I get an error.
I have the following SQL Statement which returns the desired result to me
Code:
SELECT tbl_p_stats.i_closing FROM tbl_p_stats WHERE (((tbl_p_stats.i_weekending)=[forms]![frm_a]![i_olddate]) AND ((tbl_p_stats.i_sacat)=[forms]![frm_a]![wfid1]) AND ((tbl_p_stats.i_complexity)=[forms]![frm_a]![wfc1]));
And am now trying to convert it to a Dlookup to provide the default value to a control on form Loading. The statement i came up with is
I need my INSERT statement to DLookup tbl_module_repairs and insert the information from a field based on a WHERE condition of primary key matching on the form and table. Here is what I have but it will not work on the last value:
I am having problems with Dlookup from a table which is linked to Excel.The heading on the fields from Excel have been imported as F1, F2, F3 etc... the code I am using is as follows .....
I am having an issue with DLookup, which, for some reason which I do not understand appears to missing the first record in the table.
What I am trying to do is to extract the e-mail address of all users who have 'Admin' status to the database. In the table ('LogIn') there are 3 users who have 'Admin' status and this is confirmed by the DCount function in the following code. There respective ID values in the table are 1, 49 and 51.
Yet when I run the Loop to get all e-mail addresses it misses ID 1 and just returns records for ID 49 and 51.
I have tried changing other users status to 'Admin' and it finds them but always misses the first record.
The basic idea is that I need to insert a record into a table and then return the Key field so that I can use it to populate another table. This was working just fine for a while, then it stopped and naturally I can't think of anything I did to make it not work. I get an Invalid Use of Null error at the bolded step.
Dim SQL As String Dim SpecID As Long Dim VerifySpec As Variant ' Check for empty strings If Len(Me.txtNewPartNumber & vbNullString) = 0 Then Response = MsgBox("Part Number cannot be blank.", vbExclamation, "Missing Data") Exit Sub End If
Part of my access application does invoicing. I have an invoice number table that wholes one field "InvoiceNum". On my invoice report i have the following code:
Code: Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer) '// lookup invoice number when invoice opens intInvoiceNum = Nz(DLookup("InvoiceNum", "tblInvoiceNum"), 0) End Sub
[Code] .....
Problem: My report open with groupby ClientID and ProjectNum. Multiple invoices print on the same report. If any invoice spills over to second page the Format Code runs again inserting an incremental invoice number to the second page. How can i prevent this from happening?
Basically I want to get the ID (a number) from a specific record where the JOB NUMBER equals the string I have typed in to a field on the form, also called JOB NUMBER.
However, my problem is that it doesn't navigate to the record where the criteria matches, it just chooses the ID from the very first record of the table.
