How I could do a multiple value InputBox in VBA, if this is even possible... This is so I can prompt the end user to enter a range (with two string values as start and end parameters) for a report I'm working on.
If this is possible, I would like to include this as an additional parameter option within the code I have below:
Code:
Private Sub EmployeesBadges_Click()
Dim soa As Byte
Dim emp, sEB As String
soa = MsgBox("Do you wish to print a single employee badge or all?", vbYesNo + vbQuestion)
Select Case soa
Case vbYes
I have a search form that looks up a value in a field and lets the user know if it is there or not, they have now asked to put in multiple values to search... eg. searching containers number, I will put user input box where they can put these numbers
NYKU023561 TRLU102356 TCNU123023
This will search my container number field and show a pop up message box saying.. Please note below NYKU023561 - has been found you cannot use this container TRLU102356 - has not been found please check internal system TCNU123023 - has beeen found you cannot use this container
Below is the basic search I had before which was all I needed.. how can I adapt this?
Code: Private Sub Command256_Click() If (CntSearch & vbNullString) = vbNullString Then Exit Sub Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim CNT As String
Can anyone tell me how I can format my access tables with multiple input masks under one field?
In my table I have formatted my telephone numbers so that they read (xxx) xxx-xxxx which suits our predominantly UK based business telephone numbers, however we also have a lot of Irish numbers which follow a different configuration e.g. (xxxxx) xxxx-xxxx - how can I add this second input mask so that both formats are recognised within the same column/ field?
I have a query that prompts the user to display certain/all of the members in my member table. The problem is, using a parameter query in the memberID field only allows the user to send the message to one member, not multiple members. "1 or 2 or 3" or "1,3" obviously don't work. I've tried creating a form with a list box to select the members (which I;ve done) but obviously you need code and stuff to get it to work which I think will be too complicated. Is there a simpiler way or is the form the only thing that will work? Thanks Kris
I’am a fairly new to access I have a Database with forms, on one form that is linked to the student table you can put in all the student details. what I want to do for the post code is have a drop down box with two place names that have different formats for there post codes E.G London : LL0 0LL and Cardiff : LL00 0LL , depending on which one is selected the corresponding mask would be applied to the Post Code text box. Any Suggestions will be much appreciated.
A little bit of context first: I am producing a database to store information on overhead line structure renewals.
I have a table called tblStrucTasks with four fields; Task ID, Structure Type, Create (specifies whether the structure is to be created or removed) and Task. I need to enter multiple records which will have the same Structure Type and Create fields but different Task fields. There are many tasks for each structure so I'd like a form where you only have to select the Structure Type and Create fields once. Some sort of list where the tasks could be typed in would then be perfect.
I'm not sure whether this should be done with VBA or queries. I'm new to databases so I don't know a lot about queries but I have a little bit of experience with VBA from Excel.
I have 3 tables, "Customer", "Offsite Service" and "Service".
Customer: ID Last Name First Name ...
Service: ID Date Price Trans#
Offsite Service: ID Date Price Trans#
All 3tables are joined by the ID#.
I need to create a sales report/query based on the results of the user input, which is a date range. I've got it working great with two of the tables, but not the third. Here's the code for the working one I have now. I had to add the Trans# to make sure it returned all the results. If I take it out it only shows a small percentage of the records. The Trans# is NOT the same on both the service tables.
This pulls the information from "Customer" and "Service" tables and returns Last Name - First Name - Date(Based on user input) - Price
SELECT [Customer List].[Last Name], [Customer List].[First Name], First([Service Records].Date) AS [First Of Date], Sum([Service Records].Price) AS Price FROM [Customer List] INNER JOIN [Service Records] ON [Customer List].ID = [Service Records].ID GROUP BY [Customer List].[Last Name], [Customer List].[First Name], [Service Records].[Trans #] HAVING (((First([Service Records].Date))>=["Start Date" Use format MM/DD/YY] And (First([Service Records].Date))<["End Date" Use format: MM/DD/YY])) ORDER BY [Customer List].[Last Name];
This pulls the information from "Customer" and "Offsite Service" tables and returns Last Name - First Name - Date(Based on user input) - Price
SELECT [Customer List].[Last Name], [Customer List].[First Name], First([Offsite Service Records].Date) AS FirstOfDate, Sum([Offsite Service Records].Price) AS SumOfPrice FROM [Customer List] INNER JOIN [Offsite Service Records] ON [Customer List].ID = [Offsite Service Records].ID GROUP BY [Customer List].[Last Name], [Customer List].[First Name], [Offsite Service Records].[Trans #] HAVING (((First([Offsite Service Records].Date))>=["Start Date" Use format MM/DD/YY] And (First([Offsite Service Records].Date))<["End Date" Use format: MM/DD/YY])) ORDER BY [Customer List].[Last Name];
I want to be able to pull records from a date range that returns customer name, the date and price from service AND the price from offsite service.This way I have the price from both tables that I can add up and get a total sales report.
And yes I'm an access dummy, so please keep your directions easy for me to understand. Thank you in advance. Bill
Hey all, I'm wondering if creating something like this is too difficult, or where I'd start? (see image attached). Here's kind of the process: Scenario 1 : 1) user selects value from combobox 2) clicks text link ("add") to add value to table 3) value is displayed on form, with "remove" link that can take previously written data out of table 4) combo refreshes, moves down and process can repeat
The values would be added to the table seperated by commas.
Scenario 2: This might be too difficult, in which case I could just use four or so text inputs and the user could type in the values... all written to different table cells. In this case, I'd need to show be able to write all the cells to a single textbox string on a form in the format "cast member 1, cast member 2" etc.
Anyone know what I'm trying to do and that could lend some advice? If there's an easier way to do this, please let me know. haha, thank yoU!
Hi, I have a big problem. Here is the business rule, I am trying to track meeging request(MR) made. A meeting request is made by a manager,MR can include many analysts, and MR involves 1 project. I need to generate several reports from the MR information so I am trying to make sure the info is inputed correctly. I am trying to creat an input form for the MR table (tblMR) The input form is going to contain all the fields from the tblMR except the manager_ID and and the Project_ID, I am also going to have it track which analysts attended the meeting(1 or more). The problem I am having is in creating the form but having the analyst, manager, project values come from their own tables but after selecting them through combo box or list box, for values of Manager_ID and Project_ID to be entered in the tblMR. And for the analyst involved to be stored in a a composit table called tblMR-Analyst. this table will help me track how many meeting each analyst has been to. Any suggestions will help.
We store data for clients which can be found online. Our current method of getting the data so we can analyze it is to copy a table found online and pasting it into excel.
What we want to do is to copy that data into an access table. This equates to inputting multiple records at the same time. There are 5 columns and around 20 rows (records) pasted at the same time. I want to do this in Access, through a form which would them store that data in the appropriate table.
I assume there is an ActiveX control out there which can put a spreadsheet in an access form. Then i could maybe write a VBA procedure to input the data into a table.
On my main form, I have a subform to input multiple dates, using date picker.
I also have a text box on the main form to input single dates, again using Date Picker.
On entering both the single date text box and the subform, I don't want the (default) date to be visible. I only want the date to be visible once I have selected a date from the Date Picker.
I have figured out how to do this with the single date text box. I have simply defaulted the forecolor to be white so that you can't see the font against the white backcolor. Then on the Change Event, I set the forecolor to be black. Works like a charm.
However... This same approach will not work with the subform. I've tried playing around with a bunch of different events, but so far nothing allows me to re-create what I am able to do with the single date text box on the main form.
What I have is a table that contains plant info (plants that produce a product not vegetation plants). I also have a table that contains all the fields related to the products themselves. Finally I have a third table that contains the constituent items that make up products (think raw ingredients if you will). I have various junction tables set up to define relationships between all these.
What I'm trying to do is create a way of inputting a product and having an option on the form to send that product information to multiple plants. I don't know why but I cannot visualize an approach to doing this.
I am using Access 2007 and have reviewed many blogs and looked at the Northwind db to try to solve this problem. I would like to create a form that functions in the same manner as the "Order Details" form in the Northwind db. Specifically, I want to create a form that will allow me to input a value and have the form get data from another table and populate the table I need populated.
I would like to populate a table "Outside", field names are Key, Name, term, Value, Date.
The table that contains the data is named "CV" and the filed names are Key, Name.
In the form, I would like to enter a value for Key into a combo box, and have it put the value for Key and for Name into the form, and allow me to enter whatever I want to in the Term, Value and Date field. When I tab out, I would like all this data to be in the table "Outside.
I am building a form to create a user record and at the same time i have some yes/no options which are located in other tables but when i want add a user i cannot select any yes/no options they seem locked?
I tried and failed to get this to work using a multiselect listbox..I have a list of departments in tblFunctionalArea...My main table is tblStatic..I want to be able to for each record select multiple departments affected by a record and store them in the tblStatic.After looking around i couldn't find many people successfully maanging to store listbox values in a table...
I decided to create 5 fields in tblStatic and in my form create multiple combo boxes cboFunctionalArea1, cboFunctionalArea2 etc etc which are bound to these fields.I want to be able to ensure the list for any combo box requeries and takes out any selection in the other boxes.
I have this working in a strict cascade fashion i.e. in cbo1 all dept's visible, in cbo2 it takes off whatever was selected in cbo1 etc. But if someone then jumps back and deletes the content of cbo3 then the whole thing breaks or if they amend in the wrong order it breaks
I have 5 tables that I would like to input data in. It can only be done with a single form. The fields I want to input in have the same names in all 5 tables, for example:
Table 1: Name Age DOB
Table 2: Name Age DOB
Table 3: Name Age DOB
Table 4: Name Age DOB
Table 5: Name Age DOB
Is it possible to input data into all of these fields in each table using one textbox for each field?
Preferably without having to use code but if it cannot be done without it then that would be fine.
I have a textbox where I need an afterupdate event, which should check that input is 3 letters followed by 3 numbers. The total is 6 characters, but always 3 letters + 3 numbers. If condition not met, a msgbox will be shown, for the user to input correctly, before being able to continue.
We receive hundreds of items at the time capturing the item barcode and the userID. I want to improve the process capturing the UserID once and updated the table with this entry on all empty records on the table. I have created the following script but I doesn't work.
Private Sub Command7_Click() Dim strSQL As String Dim strUser As String
strUser = InputBox("Scan your badge") strSQL = "UPDATE " & tblGER_ReceivingLog & " SET " & tblGER_ReceivingLog & _ "." & UserID & "='" & strUser & "' WHERE ([" & tblGER_ReceivingLog & "]. & UserID & is null);" DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL End Sub
I'm having trouble executing a SQL command in VB... I want it to find the the value of the input box in TBL-Purchases and Delete all related values. Here's my code.... I get an error on the line I've highlighted in green...
Private Sub Command31_Click() Dim Message, Title, Default, MyValue1, MyValue2 Title = "Sell Stocks" Default = "" MyValue1 = InputBox("Which stock ticker name would you like to sell?") MyValue1 = UCase(MyValue1)
I need to create a form to input records (or modify records) however im unaware of the methods that could be used to actually put the data into the tables..my current method is using:
Code: Dim dbs as DAO.Database Set dbs As CurrentDB Dim InsertSQL As String InsertSQL = "INSERT INTO [Table] (Columns) VALUES (Values)" dbs.Execute InsertSQL
I am not sure if this is the most effecient or best or if it has issues that other methods or ways to use but doing this seems to do the trick.
i have being requested to create a from that displays the number of files in different folders. I can accomplish this somewhat with the code below. In the example below it is only showing the code for the first 3 folders. I have 7 folders in total to count.
1.Each week the location of the data will change. In the example below it is showing 2014-W03, the following week it will be 2014-W04 etc. etc. I was thinking of having an input box in the form that the user type the date into, to trigger the code, but how would I go about changing the code to include this variable?
2.I need to repeat this code for 9 other products, so my form will be displaying data for 10 products in total. I know I could copy this code 9 times and modify it accordingly, but is it possible to loop it in some way?
Code: ' Returns the total number of fails Private Sub Form_Load() Dim file As Object Dim fileCount As Long With CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").getfolder(" estmachineProduct1 FAILS2014-W03") For Each file In .Files
how to input alarm in my access database?

something like in first--> ProductTime is column from Access Database i=j=ProductTime; for (i=0;i>= j+4hours, i++) { If(i=j+4h) { msgbox("ALARM- TIME is OVER"); } }
I'm trying to update the account number via an input box with a do loop but I don't have the code right. The at the input box, the user will type in a 4-8 digit number and it will update all the account number fields in a table that are null.
I am trying to get my VBA code to dump a query once the user pushes a button. I have the following code to call up the Excel app.
Code:

[code]....
The qry_PP_Errors_Union is a Union query. In this query there is a date field. I would like to be able to to use that date field as a parameter. So I have written this VBA to prompt the user for a Begin Date and an End Date.
Now the part that I am missing is that I am not sure how to make the "strBegindate" and "strEnddate" the criteria for the union query.
The following is the SQL for my union query.
Code: SELECT LastName, FirstName, Title, TeamName, WorkOrderNumber, DateCompleted, WorkCode, UICError AS Error, "Update and Internal Correspondence" AS Category FROM qry_PP_UIC_Error UNION SELECT LastName, FirstName, Title, TeamName, WorkOrderNumber, DateCompleted, WorkCode, BIDError, "Bids" FROM qry_PP_Bid_Error
[Code] ....
Without the criteria, my code works for dumping everything out into Excel. However, dumping all the data results in a 7 mb Excel file that requires manual deletion of the information that is not pertinent.
