Modules & VBA :: Name Auto-Correct Off But Auto Changes Appear
May 22, 2014
Access 2010 keeps changing the Capitalization of objects when I don't want it to.
For example "Cancel" becomes "cancel". Later it will be changed back to "Cancel".
There is also a table with a field "FULLNAME". Several Queries build a field "FullName". As a result FullName, even in places like Application. CodeProject.FullName get changed to Application.CodeProject.FULLNAME.
(Track Name AutoCorrect is off. ) It is especially irritating because I export the code to text files and check it into source control. Sometimes dozens, or even hundreds, of files will show up as changed because Access did it's rename thing.
I have reinstalled Access 2010 due to a computer malfunction. I had customized my Dictionary with about 2000 abbreviations for medical specific words: gast for Gastroenterology for instance. Saves tons of typing. I have never been able to save my dictionary just in case something like this happens. And, It's happened before. I may have saved(unsure) once, but it was years ago on Access XP-2003, somewhere in that time frame and was never able to find it if I did. So I am reentering all these words again. It would sure be nice to be able to add them by Anything! but going File/Options/ Proofing/ Auto Correct Options and then entering my shortcuts. that's 4 steps each time. It would seem to me that if you can add the Auto-Correct icon in Word to the Word ribbon, Access should be able to do this. There is no icon i can find in Customize Ribbons/ All Commands. My Word Dictionary does not -never has- synced with Access' Dictionary.
I currently have a database set up with three basic forms:
Form 1 = Main menu with options to go to Form 2 and Form 3
Form 2 = Employee information form which includes email address
Form 3 = Employee document upload form
My goal is once the Employee is registered in Form 2 they can then upload a document in Form 3. When they upload this document and fill out other parameters Including their bosses name (which is captured as a record in Form 2) they click "Submit Form." I would like for this submit form button to populate an email that is updated to send to the selected "Bosses name"
Currently on the Submit form button I have:
Private Sub Submit_Record_Click() DoCmd.SendObject _ , _ , _ , _ "email .com", _ <-- this is what I want to autopopulate with the correct persons email (as well as their name below) , _ , _ "***A new Lab Report has been submitted for your review***", _ "Bosses name," & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Please log into the Report Database and review the latest pending report. If you have any questions please contact the sender." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "This is an automated response generated from Microsoft Access." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Sincerely," & vbCrLf & "ESBU Lab Report Database", _ False DoCmd.Close End Sub
we use access database for printing lab reports. and a small graph is also printed on this report from another software(not an access application).
what i have done is that first we print the txt report from access and then use the same paper to print graph on it. I have alligned the report in such a way that these two reports fit perfectly.
we have to print twice and sometimes the graph is deleted in the other application, so we have to make the graph again.
what i want to do is: 1) prepare graph in the other application. 2) take a screenshot of it. 3) save this as an image file (jpg or bmp) 4) reference this picture in the access application and print it with the report.
So the problems are: 1) when i take a screenshot, how do i save it as a file, 2) how do i just get the area of the graph and remove all extra space. (usually all the other space is white as background)
Hi all! I was wondering if you guys can help me out with this one:
I would like to have data auto-inserted from a particular colum in table 'x' in to a defined column in table 'y'. similary, I'd like to achieve auto-updation of this data as well as deletion. Can anyone please provide some guidelines?
A little more detail :
I have a column "Client ID" in the table client_personal_info, the rows of which I'd like to have updated in the "Client ID" column in the client_business_detail table.
So if say, ClientID_1 is a row that has been added by the user, I'd like to have it auto-inserted in the client ID column in the client_business_detail table
Here is my issue. In a table with an Auto Number index some records have been deleted. I have been able to recreate them along with their original auto number. The problem is that I do not know how to append these records forcing the original auto number. I have tried changing the auto number field to a number field in the table, this works except I cannot change it back to auto number.
I am sure I’m not the first with this question or issue. I did search through a couple hundred entries about auto number before I posted this question.
I want wage rate should be inserted automatically instead of manually in attendance sheet. In labourwage form, wage rate will be fixed for labour type with wagedate as and when required. Once I add attendate in attendform, it should look-up the table labourwage and auto insert wage rate entry in to wagerate column for the respective month ie from the given wage date up to next given wage date of labourwage. I have tried much, but not succeeded and presently entering manually which is time wasting. This should be possible with writing some code with VB.
In a form, I have a comboBox with 3 columns.I update the field and with this piece of code, I update two more fields based on this comboBox data/columns.
I wonder if I can update fields which are not parts of a combo.For example, suppose I have a form with two fields, DATE and USD, Once I update the DATE field, this event, auto populates the USD exchange rate field.
How to set up Auto dialed in Access or know of a link where I can be pointed to. (I assume this will set it up with a modem dialler?)I know you can use the wizard to set in up, however when clicking the button it doesn't pick up the number form the number field in access.Also is there a way of recording calls numbers made, call time and call length in say a table or form in Access?
I am in Access 2007. I have two tables (Employer Contacts and Employer Followup). I have been successful in linking the "Employer Name" sections between the tables, and I have added to the "Employer Followup" table a combo box for the "Employer Name" field that when clicked successfully shows all the companies we added to "Employer Contacts" table in the field of the name "employer name". This is what I want. Now the trouble comes with trying to get the data from the fields; Location, contact name, original contact date, phone and email to auto fill into "employer follow up" using the information captured from the "Employer Contact" table. I can see it all in the drop down box but cannot get it to auto fill.
I have a Change Management database with several fields, the key fields that I need to talk to work together are as follows:
[Patch] , [CVE] & [Patch Approved]
When opening a form I have I can sort it by the patch number which will then sort out all other CVE's that are not associated with that patch. What I would like to be able to do is approve one patch under the [Patch Approved] field and have it carried through the rest of the filtered CVE's that have the same [Patch] number/ field.
I have a database studentreview. with the name of the student, the location of the student the course and the status of the course. What I am trying to do is when a condition is meet the name of the course "Anatomy" is meet and the status "Done" is meet I want to auto-generate a new record with the same student name with the same town and the course will be "anatomy 2" and status "not done". The name of the student and the location are linked tables with the studentreview table. This is what is did with a record set but clearly I am doing something wrong since nothing is happening
Public Sub AddRecordset() Dim db As Database Dim rs As Recordset Set db = CurrentDb Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tblStudentreview")
I have a form titled 'New/Edit/Search Contractor Employee" that provides controls to fields within a table titled "Contractors". In this table, I have a Hyperlink field that will store the location of the files related to individual employees. On this form, I have a Control that (at the moment) the user can copy a Hyperlink and enter into this, to populate the field. This will then allow the user to click on this Hyperlink to open up the individual folder location to drag and drop whatever files they want associated to this individual record.
I have created a Command Button to automatically create a unique folder for this record, VBA below:
Private Sub Command168_Click() strPath = "V:IntProdTrans&OpsTERMINALSDriver and Contractor Database 2014ContIndPW" & "" & txtCompanyID If Len(Dir(strPath, vbDirectory)) = 0 Then MkDir strPath End If strPath = "V:IntProdTrans&OpsTERMINALSDriver and Contractor Database 2014ContIndPW" & "" & txtCompanyID & "" & txtFirstName & " " & txtLastName If Len(Dir(strPath, vbDirectory)) = 0 Then MkDir strPath End If End Sub
What I'm trying to work out now is how to automatically enter this new folder location into the Control, which is then viewable and can be clicked on. I managed to do this (can't for the life of me remember how) but it entered the location as text and I wasn't able to click.
The Hyperlink control is titled 'Induction Paperwork' relates to a Hyperlink field.
I have to write piece of code to achieve the following:
1. When the Form gets opened then timer will start. 2. It will fire BtnClose_click event automatically after 10 minutes if there is no activity for 10 minutes. 3. Whenever BtnSave is clicked by the user then reset the timer.
I have info on my access form which is located here....
Code : Forms![Front Page]![Site 2 Owner]
and here
Code : Forms![Front Page]![Postcode S2]
I would like to export this information into cells B2 & C2( individually and respectively) on the excel spreadsheet which I have saved as a template here...
Code : C:UsersmedesktopAutoExcel Auto
Is this easily achievable? To be honest I will be using it to fill in about 12 cells but how it would be done for the first two i can just modify it as necessary.
I have a form that contains an autonumber field. Before any data is entered into the form that field displays the word "(Autonumber)".While it does this the subforms on my form that use that same field to run their querys are empty
Code:
Me.AllowAdditions = True DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec [Forms]![InvoiceForm]![CreateNewRecord] = True Me.AllowAdditions = False [CreateNewRecord] is just a invisible tickbox that is used to enter some data on the form; I don't want to use it but haven't found another solution.
Anyway. When the user opens the form they have to press this button Unless a new record was previously created and that's confusing. I'd like it in the form load event except I can't "see" the value of the field while it displays "(Autonumber)".My code for the form load is:
Code:
If InvoiceNumber.Value = Null Then Command82_Click End If
Where invoicenumber is the autonumber field and command82 is the new record button.
When I import an excel sheet into Microsoft Access database tables, I get a automatic [table name]_$importErrors table generated. Almost always, errors are type mismatch error. Then, I need to go manually fix the cells.
Is there a way to automatically point to excel cell(s) which have error(s)? I am trying to write a VBA code which opens an excel sheet if an "importError" table gets generated automatically after import. Then, it goes directly to a cell in the sheet where it has errors with a click of button in the Access form.
I have a very basic application to manage the tasks. In the main form "Tasks" one of the field is the priority (Order by) and I have this example:
Task Priority
B 1 A 2 C 3 E 4 D 5
If the user change one priority, I need a code to automatically change the others too respecting the new priority order. For example if the user change the priority 3 to 1 for the task C, the other numbers have to change to become:
I am using an access program with a form with detail section. I would like to create auto sr.No when i am creating a new quotation. Using Autonumber didn't work because it start numbering from last quotation.
I would like to let vba select all (one after the other) values in a combobox and run a query. The code has to be run using a Do While Loop for which I already made the condition.The reason I want to automate this is to allow the user to quickly add new links in the database. The combobox is used in multiple queries.I rather code it than make new queries for this situation because it involves many queries that would have to be added.
I'm making up a stock system for the independent jewellers I work for. Each stock pattern needs an individual code which can quickly be recognised read as tickets are often taken off the jewellery and can be mixed up easily. To this end we categorise based on two criteria:
1. Material 2. Type
At the moment these are as follows:
MATERIAL
IDMaterial 0Base and Miscellaneous 1Silver 2Gold 3Palladium 4Platinum 5Pewter
TYPE
IDStock Type 0Previously Owned 1Ring 2Pendant 3Chain 4Necklace 5Bracelet or Bangle 6Earrings 7Brooch 8Gents 9Gift, Clock or Miscellaneous
So if I had three pairs of silver earrings I want the first to be No. 161, the next 162, the next 163. If I had three Gold Bracelets I'd want them No. 251, 252, 253 and so on...Material and type are both selected form separate Comboboxes on a form.
i've got a data entry form. when i click the button add all the other buttons go grey, i am in mode "New" also i am able to add, edit, records in this state, when i press save i want the supplierID field to automatically populate itself with the next SupplierID record THAT IS EMPTY. So say that my last record was ID number 45 then when i click add on my form and go into "New" state the SupplierID field automatically populates itself with "46" btw this is all an unbound form,
I have a pivot chart in ms access and i want to have auto-axis for y-scale. I want that when the data will be changed the scale would be automatically arranged.
