Modules & VBA :: Restrict Value In Lookup Field To Only Include Values From Table B Not In Table A?

Feb 2, 2014

I have a database that has 2 tables. Table A and Table B. Table A is my primary table. On this table I have 2 fields. The first field is a LOOKUP Field that looks up information from Table B and displays my selection in the field on Table A. Then using DLOOKUP I automatically input the information in the Second Field on Table A based upon the selection from the First Field.

This is working mostly correctly. However, the problem is, when I click on the next record in the table, it automatically changes the Second Field on that record to the same value as the record before it and continues this trend each time I click on another record. This occurs without me making a selection in the first field. If I make a selection in the first field it does change the Second Field to the Correct Value, but then the next Record has the same issue.

How do I go about fixing this so it doesn't change the value with the change of the record. Only change if I change that particular field within that 1 record?is there a way to restrict the Value's in my lookup field to only include the Values from Table B that aren't already in Table A?

Multiple Lookup Values Into One Table Field

Apr 4, 2006

Hi,

Is there anyway to have a single field in a table which is populated via the use of a lookup onto another table, but allowing multiple value selection out of the lookup table and populating those into the field...

For example

Table 1 is customer details
Table 1 field 3 = areas of interest

Table 1 field 3 is populated via a lookup into Table 2 interests

Table 2 has 4 records

Sport
Household
Motoring
Family

I want to be able to select 1 or more of the Table 2 values and populate them into Table 1 Field 3....

Help my head hurts....

Modules & VBA :: Wildcard Search Of Combobox - Lookup Values In Table Column

Nov 19, 2014

I have a form which has a combobox called Task_Ref which looks up values in a table column.

I would like to be able to set the tickbox value of tickbox called P1 to True if the combobox contains the word "test", each entry on the combobox selection may vary such as:-

Test number 1
Yesterdays Test

As long as the word "Test" appears I would like the above to happen?

I was thinking of something along the lines of:-

If InStr(Task_Ref.Value, "Test") > 0 Then
P1.Value = True
Else
P1.Value = False
End If
End Sub

But this hasn't worked

Queries :: IIF With Null Included Field - Lookup Table Values

Jul 1, 2013

I am currently working on an instrument datebase, I have a mainquery that takes care of user inputs from a form. The main fields that have been queried on are Type, System, and Manufacturer and they are all look-up fields that contain some null values.

On the same criteria row for these fields, I have

Like IIf([forms]![User Interface].[qtype2]="","*",[forms]![User Interface].[qtype2])
Like IIf([forms]![User Interface].[qsys2]="","*",[forms]![User Interface].[qsys2])
Like IIf([forms]![User Interface].[qman1]="","*",[forms]![User Interface].[qman1])

qtype, qsys and qman are the user inputs from the user interface that returns look-up table values.

This works fine when all 3 of these fields are all filled out for a certain instrument. The problem arise when some fields of the instrument are left blank or is null. The instrument won't show up in a query at all. What I wanted it to do is to show everything including the ones with null fields when the user input are null or "". When the user specifies certain requirement I only want to show the ones that are not null. I understand that putting them on the same row means AND, I have tried to OR them and did not have the result i wanted.

Lookup Values In Another Table

Jun 13, 2006

BACKGROUND

I am desperate to solve this problem but unfortunately I have not been able to figure it out. Below I will outline a design of a database and the desired results.

I know what I want to do but I don’t know how to do it (or whether it is impossible!)

DATABASE DESIGN

The design below is a simplified version of the real thing but it contains the essential information needed to understand my database.

Staff Data
Contains daily data for several members of staff
Staff ID
Staff Name
Date
Data Field 1
Example records:
600-001, Bob Smith, 01/03/2006, 50
600-001, Bob Smith, 02/03/2006, 50
600-001, Bob Smith, 03/03/2006, 50
600-001, Bob Smith, 04/03/2006, 50
600-001, Bob Smith, 05/03/2006, 50
600-002, Jayne Cole, 01/03/2006, 60
600-002, Jayne Cole, 02/03/2006, 60
600-002, Jayne Cole, 03/03/2006, 60
600-002, Jayne Cole, 04/03/2006, 60
600-002, Jayne Cole, 05/03/2006, 60
600-003, Alex Winter, 01/03/2006, 20
600-003, Alex Winter, 02/03/2006, 20
600-003, Alex Winter, 03/03/2006, 20
600-003, Alex Winter, 04/03/2006, 20
600-003, Alex Winter, 05/03/2006, 20

Team Lookup
Shows what team each staff member belongs to and what date this is effective.
Staff ID
Team
Start Date

Example records:
600-001, Sales, 01/01/06
600-002, Sales, 01/01/06
600-003, Accounts, 01/01/06
600-002, Accounts, 04/03/06

Please note:

The first three records show that at the start of the year Bob (600-001) and Jayne (600-002) worked for Sales and that Alex (600-003) worked for Accounts.

The last record shows that from 04/03/06 Jayne switched teams to Accounts

Query Assign Team
Assigns the correct team to Staff ID for each date
Staff ID
Staff Name
Team
Date
Data Field 1
Desired Results:
600-001, Bob Smith, Sales, 01/03/2006, 50

PROBLEM: WHAT I AM TRYING TO DO

I don’t know how to get the query “Query Assign Team” to work!!

I would like to lookup up the ‘Staff ID’ and ‘Date’ in “Team Lookup” and return the appropriate value for ‘Team’

If the only two records in Tbl Staff data were:

600-002, Jayne Cole, 03/03/2006, 60
600-002, Jayne Cole, 04/03/2006, 60

I want the query to return:

600-002, Jayne Cole, Accounts, 04/03/2006, 60

Can anybody help me?

Should I be using DLOOKUP? If so, how?
Is VBA the only way around my problem? If so, can you tell me what it is?
Am I attempting the impossible?

How To Lookup Values In A Table And Add Them To Another?

Jan 22, 2007

I just started a new database and I'm new at this so I have a question about ID numbers for my two tables.

In Table1, I have faculty demographic information, and a FacultyID (unique ID number created by AutoNumber).

Table2 has the courses those faculty members taught - one faculty teaches many courses. But this table does not have the FacultyID that I added to Table1.

So, how do I automate the process of looking up the FacultyID number from Table1 and adding it to the currently blank FacultyID field in Table2? Theres hundreds of records and this will be done every semester, so I need an automatic way of doing this lookup.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Mar 9, 2007

Hi gurus,

I have two fields in the main record table with values lookup from two other tables. These two table has 1-many mapping (like country - States). Can I make change within the record table.

General :: Lookup All Values Of Another Table

Feb 12, 2014

II have been working in Access 2010 and by no means would I call myself an expert. I have two different tables, one is called 'JobsList' and the other one is called 'StatHolidays'. On the Jobslist form, I have a field that requires a ship date, however, I don't want to allow the user to select the dates listed in the StatHolidays table. Is there a way that when a user picks a date that is listed in StatHolidays that a pop up box will say "This date is Christmas, do not choose this as a Ship date". The 'StatHolidays' table has a field for a date and for a description of the holiday.

One Lookup Table With Two Needed Values - How To Use Both

The Lookup table has two fields containing values that are needed: Description and Amount ($). In the table that uses the Lookup, I'd like to have both values shown, but have a dropdown just once. In other words, when the user selects a description (the dropdown shows both the description and amount), can the amount be inserted into an Amount field as the description is done currently.

Tables :: Make Calculated Field In One Table That Calculates Values From Another Table Linked By Order ID

May 13, 2015

I have what is probably a stupid question but I've been struggling with this one for a while. I have an ordering database which has an Orders table (containing Order ID, Date, Supplier etc) and an Order Line table within which I have a combo box for Product name, supplier, price, VAT rate, Line price etc. At the moment, I have the order line table as a subform within the Order form (run from the Orders table). The problem I'm having is the subtotal and total fields. At the moment these are in the Order Line table as I cannot figure out how to get these in the Orders table. In summary, can I make a calculated field in one table that calculates values from another table (linked by Order ID)?

Modules & VBA :: Replace Values In One Table Based On 2nd Table

Jan 12, 2015

I have a table (tblConversions) that I'm using as a base for replacing values in a different table. tblConversions is set up as such and is made up of nearly 100 records:

ID LABEL CODE
1 Ashaway ASH
2 Barrington BAR
3 Bristol BRI
4 Jesse Smith BUR
....

Another table (tblSysItemLoc) has nearly 1,000 records with a field for Location Names such as Ashaway New Books, Ashaway Fiction, Ashaway Non-Fiction, Barrington DVDs, Barrington Reference, etc. Other fields in this table are just statistics.

What I need to do is loop through tblConversions, and find in tblSysItemLoc where the Location field Starts With the value from tblConversion.LABEL and replace the Entire field with the CODE. For example, from tblSysItemLoc "Ashaway New Books" gets changed to "ASH", "Barrington Reference" gets changed to "BAR", etc.

I feel like I need a loop inside of a loop, but I'm not sure where to begin. Loops are not my specialty.

Field & Lookup Table

Jan 6, 2006

I am very new to Access and any help would be appreciated. I have been through the entire Access Bible and many forums but can't find the answer to my specific question.

The project:

I'm setting up a database for tutors and students. Tutors will, via the web, enter data about a specific tutoring session (studentName, subject, sessionLength, etc.) Then at the end of the month a report will be generated detailing hours tutored and total compensation.

The problem:

Students pay varying rates based on subject (math or verbal). So in the Session table each record for each tutoring session has an empty field called payRate. This is the rate the student will pay based on subject. So I need this field to "fill in" automatically based on the 'student' and the 'subject' from the same record. Then I can multiply the field by sessionLength and get a totalPay field for the session. Add these at month's end and pay the tutors.

I've set up a lookup table called 'subject' with three fields (student,subject, payRate) and I have the student and subject combined as the primary key. Am I on the right track here? If so, how do I link the tables to get that Session 'payRate' field to fill in automatically. This is where is breaks down for me. I've tried the lookup wizard but all I seem to get when I open the Session table is an empty PayRate field with a drop down box containing the entire subject lookup table.

Sorry for being so long winded but I need help from someone better at his than me. Thanks in advance.

Multi-value Lookup Field To A Table

Mar 11, 2014

I'm having a big struggle with adding a multi-value lookup field to a table. I need to provide a long pick list of items (from a source table) but these items must not be output (in forms or reports) in alphabetical order, they need to remain in the order that they are in the source table.

Access wants to alphabetize the output even if a I add a number field to the source table and sort by that.

Is there any way I can persuade access to just give the selected items back in the same order as in the source table ?
