Modules & VBA :: Update Field On Exiting A Record
Jul 11, 2013
I need to update a field with the contents of 2 other fields when exiting a record. The fields (ItemNo) and (LotID) need to create or update the field (LotCode).
i.e.: ItemID (GM-235), LotID (26) will result in LotCode (GM-235-26).
I currectly use a Update Query that uses the expression:
[products].[MasterPN] & "-" & [lotid] in the lotCode Field - "Update to".
Unfortunatly, I am using a button on my form that executes the query, but it updates all the records and although it runs very fast, I would rather have it perform this task automatically when I leave the record.

On a push of a button from a form, I want to locate specific records within the table and update a field to Null if it matches a name
Dim strSQL As String
strSQL = "UPDATE tblmaster SET Score = "" WHERE [AdvocateName] = 'Anna Maria'"
DoCmd.RunSQL (strSQL)
I'm certain I don't have the syntax correct between the Set to Null and WHERE clauses..

Background info:
Split database
Back end on network
Front end on individual machines
I have a main menu form that opens up when opening Access.What I'm thinking is have some vba in the OnLoad Event of the main menu that Grabs the User and Time and track this to a table.When the database closes(Is there an OnDatabaseClose Event?), I'd like to track the User and time as well.
LogID(Autonumber)
User(text)
TimeIn(Date)
TimeOut(Date)

How to do an UPDATE using VBA on a form to update a specific record on the table using an unbound field on the form to filter the update.
Every time the code runs, it tells me: Run-time error '3144': Syntax error in UPDATE statement and takes me to the "CurrentDb.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError" line at the end of my sample below.
Here's my code:
Dim strSQL As String
Dim strCriteria As String
strSQL = ""
strSQL = strSQL & " UPDATE [tblTicket] SET"
strSQL = strSQL & " ([UpdatedBy], [AssignedTo], [Requestor], [Dept])"
strSQL = strSQL & " Values"
strSQL = strSQL & " ('" & unbEnteredBy & "','" & cmbAssignedTo & "','" & cmbRequestor & "','" & cmbDepartment & "')"
strSQL = strSQL & "Where [tblTicket]![DateTimeOpened] = #" & FORMS!frmTicketTracker.unbDateTimeOpened & "#;"
CurrentDb.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError

i want to be able to create an On Click Event when pushing a command button that will run an Update query to update a record and after it has been updated that specific record will pop up on a Form and be displayed. i know a different way is to run the Update query and then have it displayed in a Select query but i want it to be displayed on a Form instead. is it possible?

I need a way to dynamically store a particular value in "field_2" of the CURRENT record depending on whether or not the value of "field_1" of the CURRENT record is identical to the value of "field_1" of the PREVIOUS record within the same table. The table is sorted on "field_1".
So, if the value of "field_1" in the CURRENT record is "ABC" and the value of "field_1" in the PREVIOUS record is also "ABC", then store a value of "PPP" in "field_2" of the current record. IF on the other hand, the value of "field_1" in the CURRENT record is "ABC" and the value of "field_1" in the PREVIOUS record is "XYZ", then store a value of "WWW" in "field_2" of the current record.
I have a report that will use these results to count only the number of records that have a "WWW" in "field_2".
Is this doable, maybe in a query somehow?
I should add that whatever the solution, it needs to be compatible with Access 2000.

I wanted to get the autonumber ID before a record was saved to the table. My fields are on a form that is linked to the table. Maybe my solution is not the most elegant but it seems to work.
I messed around and came up with this solution: it creates the next record and captures the autoID then increments it and creates the record we will actually use. Since we know the current autoID we know 100% the next will be the current+1
Code:
' Code by Witchcraftz
' Button event to add new record
Private Sub cmdAddRecord_Click()
Dim strID As String

I have this on the Form - On Current Event to show how many records I have on the Form, However when the employee filters the combo box's I want the record count to show the current records when they finish each filter. At the moment it just shows random numbers.
PHP Code:
Private Sub Form_Current() If Me.NewRecord Then Me.lblRecordCount.Caption = "New Record"
Else Me.lblRecordCount.Caption = _ "Record " & Me.CurrentRecord & " of " & Me.Recordset.RecordCount
End If End Sub

I have lots of combo boxes in my forms that are mostly limit to list as I want the people entering the data to actually add the full details of a client or supplier or whatever instead of just typing the information in over and over again. if the person/client/supplier is not in that list I have a button that will pop up a form so they can add a full new record but I need it so when they add the new record it will show up in the combo box in the intial form once it has been saved and closed without having to also close that initial form and reopen it or manually refreshing it.
right now I am using an if statement on the save button on my popup form that looks at what form is open and if that form is open then it refreshes that form after the save and closes which works fine but adding this to every form and combo box combination is very tedious, so I thought I would ask here, what is the best way to update combo boxes after and new record has been added via another popup form?

Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim rs2 As DAO.Recordset
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT * FROM ExorData")
Set rs2 = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT * FROM MainForm")

Code:
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("Complaint", dbOpenDynaset)
[Code] ....
I find the record, and then try to update a field. The drop down menu field gets updated after it is initially changed from blank to a value, but it never changes after that though the re!C02 field has the correct newer data when I change it again.

I found this code and have substituted parameters to suit my own needs however the loop is not working. Only the first record in my recordset (which is a test recordset of only 3 records) is being updated.
Also, for testing only, the edit or update being applied is trivial: Description = "WHITE RESIN". If i can get the loop to work I want to substitute higher functionality to the module.
Private Sub Update_Click()
Dim dbs As DAO.Database
Dim rsQuery As DAO.Recordset
Set dbs = CurrentDb
Set rsQuery = dbs.OpenRecordset("qryRmResin", dbOpenDynaset)

I have a database which is slowly evolving. Users needed a feature to delete some records without a trail and some with a trail from the form. So I added an apply action field in the subform using which they can delete a record without a trail and if they wanted to keep a trail they could do that too. When user selects "Delete Violations as it was entered in error" the system deletes the record completely which is what everyone wanted.
After six months of use now I am asked to add an audit trail. I managed to do that also. I also looked at Browne's method but my data structure does not match the requirements for that method. I used an alternate method. It works as intended except when a record is completely deleted using the code I mentioned above. Then it goes in the infinite loop. I somehow need to bypass the before update event so that the function to write the audit trail is not called.
I have attached the database ...

I have a table with a multi-select listbox as one of the fields. I want to loop through the recordset (table) and changes the listbox selections for each record.
To go into a little more detail, the table (tblEmail) has a field (Label) that is a multi-select listbox. The listbox pulls from another table (tblLabel). I want to loop through records in tblEmail and edit/change the Label(s) for each email though VBA.
I've tried doing something like this:
Code:
With rst
.MoveFirst
Do Until rst.EOF
.Edit
!Label.Selected(0) = True
.Update
Loop
End With
However I get an error that says "Run-Time Error '438' Object doesn't support this property or method" ...

I have the following fields in an A2010 form
PaymentMethod
Total
InstalmentAmounts
OurFee
InstalmentAmounts field is populated based on the results of PaymentMethod which is a combo box
Here is the current code
Select Case Me.Payment_Method.Value
Case "Three post dated Cheques"
'If three payments by cheque
Me.InstalmentAmounts.Value = Round(Me.Total.Value / 3, 2)
In some cases there will be a few pennies that the client "overpays" because the instalment amounts will not add up to the Total. I need to add up the TotalInstalmentPayments to find out what the client actually pays and then add the difference between TotalInstalmentPayments and Total to the OurFee field
So
Total = 500.00
Payment Method = 3 instalments so
IstalmentAmounts = 166.67 (rounded) so client pays 500.01 so the 0.01 needs to add to the OurFee field.

I have 2 tables, one is like a main table, containing all of the main data, such as a Job Number, Customer, Quantity, etc. I have a second, related, table that acts a breakdown of information. There may be several related records to one main record, it entirely depends on the nature of the job.
What I'd like to do is run a function that looks at a main record, checks if all the related records COMPLETED field is ticked and then tick a field in the main record. I only want it to do this for records where all of the related records are COMPLETED.

I am provided a spreadsheet that contains multiple rows of similar data; each row/record represents a different stage in the process of financial transactions (requisition, purchase order, & voucher payment). Each financial transaction has these three records, with the amounts in one of three columns (pre-encumbrance, encumbrance, and expense), depending on the process.
What I am really after is the fuller, more detailed description that is apparently only available for the two records I don't want to import into the database (which is tracking only expenses and not the other two stages of the process). There is apparently no way to cross-reference these multiple rows due to the way the original database was designed (and we apparently have no control over this).
After importing the spreadsheet into Access, I would like to match the partial text string (truncated description) to the full description in another record, and update the record with the truncated description to the full description. To make mattes more complicated, I will also have to match values in the "pre-enc" or "enc" field with the "exp" field across these three records to make sure the correct descriptions are being matched because the truncated description will match multiple distinct records with the longer description.

How can I force a field in a form to be updated before the record is saved / changed?
For instance I have a form with information on it and I want to ensure that any time the form is updated the user fills in a section providing the date and by who it has been updated by. I dont want the record to save unless that information has been filled out, and I also want it to take you to the field if you press save and it hasnt been filled out along with an error message.
To try and be a bit clearer. At current I have a Save and New button. This saves the form if dirty and opens a new record.
I want to add in the step that if record has been changed and FieldA has not just been updated then go to fieldA (Showing a message box). If FieldA has just been updated then save record and open new as normal.
My current save & new button properties are as follows (in Macro Editor)
On error Go To Next
If [form].[dirty]
RunMenuCommand Command SaveRecord
End If
If [MacroError].[Number}< >0
Message =[MacroError].[Description]
Beep Yes
Type None
Stop macro
On Error
Go To Fail
Go To Record
Record New
Go To Control
Control name Resort Code

When I try to run a simple update query written in VBA I get no errors but the field that I am trying to update just gets a 0 instead of the appropriate ID that I am passing.
Code:
Function ExtractProjects()
On Error GoTo ErrHandler:
Dim db As Database, rs As DAO.Recordset, rs2 As DAO.Recordset, var() As Variant, i As Long, qdf As DAO.QueryDef, ii As Long
Set db = CurrentDb
[code]....
The funny thing is if I run the query itself it works by using a parameter query but when I try and run it like this all I get is 0's in the field that it's supposed to be updating.The field [(SDSK) Charges Master].PID properties are as followed and is a linked table:
Type: Integer
Indexed: Yes (Duplicates Allowed)
A debug.print of the results of the query trying to be ran is the follows:
Code:
UPDATE [(SDSK) Charges Master] SET [(SDSK) Charges Master].PID = 1 WHERE ((([(SDSK) Charges Master].[IBB Date]) Between #10/24/2014# And #11/19/2014#) AND (([(SDSK) Charges Master].[Charge Num]) Like '*BAA*' And ([(SDSK) Charges Master].[Charge Num]) Is Not Null));
As you can see it is providing a number to be set to but instead it just fills it in with a 0.

What I want to do is when a person exits my database I want the db to run this function before exiting so that all the new information is updated in the xml files.

I have a table called tblCompanies. When a company acquires another company, I need a method by which the acquired company's CompanyID (PK) can be updated to the new company's CompanyID (PK). I also need to be able to update all related CompanyIDs (FKs) to the new value in related tables.
In cases in which the new company does not have an existing record, there is no problem: the company name simply gets changed to the new company and the existing CompanyID is maintained. I then use an audit table and Track Changes function to keep track of the company name data and a union query to keep the old names in the selection lists.
The problem is when both companies already have existing records in the table.
So, let's say I have records for Company A and Company B. Company A merges with Company B and Company B is now the main record. What is the best, simplest and easiest way to update the CompanyID (PK) from A to B and change the CompanyID (FK) to the new value in all related tables?
I am envisioning a pop-up form that directs the user to select the new company and then an update query happens behind the scenes... but exactly how does the criteria for the update query get selected and how do all the related tables get updated? My vba skills are pretty basic, will I need extensive coding to do something like this?

Hi,
I want to show some text from another table based on the values of the bound fields in each record of a continuous form. I thought it would be easy, but I can't get it to work.
I step through the records in the bound recordset and use some of the values to query another table. Then I use the value from the query to populate the unbound text field.
It works fine for each record. But every time the unbound field is updated, all the records in the continuous form are updated.
I'm stuck on this one. It's probably something simple to fix - if you know what to do!
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks!

Trying to update a field in a record in my form after selecting from a comboox.
This an orders form with a record per row for order items. I select the product from a dropdown list which is populated by a dynamic query from the afterupdate event on another combo. When I do the selection access reports the following error:
Runtime error 3331
to make changes to this field, first save the record
Debug takes me to the line :
Me!product_id = DLookup("product_id", "products_table", myvar)
from :
[code]
Private Sub comboProd_description_AfterUpdate()
Dim strFilter As Integer
comboProd_description.Value = comboProd_description.Column(1)
myvar = comboProd_description.Column(0)
Me!product_id = DLookup("product_id", "products_table", myvar)
[end code]
I'm lost as to what to do (no such thing as beginners luck!!). I'm not even sure if the error is from the combo box or from the field that it is trying to update (product_id)
Thx for looking
Kev.
