I'm lost on how to use the LIKE to find a value in a field.
I try to use the open folder if a field contains "Retail" or any other containing as a part. So, I could have just "Retail" "New Retail" and then act on it.
How can I use the below proper?
Code:
If Me.Business_Type Like "*" & "Retail" Then
Is there a way to write a code or query to find the last value in the last Field (column) of a record in a table?
Or find the last field name that contains data, in a record?
I'd like to further automate our invoicing system and need a field which has the last day of the month an item was completed.
Currently we have a field in the table called [Date Done]. I'm planning on adding a further field [Tax_Point].
I'd like the field to select the [date done] value and enter the final day of that month, unless, the final date of that month is in the future. in which case it would need the current date.
We create invoices at sporadic times of the month, and in the next month for the previous month; hence the need for a system date check.
My update statement is shown below. What this is to do is change the PGTIN record in PP TBL to the GTIN that is in the UPC TBL where the UPC Code on the form is the same as the UPC Code in the UPC TBL. I am getting the error message "can't find field..." I have double and triple checked the field names but cannot find my error. Both PGTIN and UPC Code are text fields.
strSQL = "UPDATE [PP TBL] SET [PGTIN] = '" & [UPC TBL].[GTIN] & "' WHERE ([UPC TBL].[UPC Code] = '" & Me.UPC & "');"
What is wrong with this criteria...
RecSet.FindFirst ("[SomeField] = '" & mMESTO & "'") and ([CheckField] = True)
Memo field is called [Notes] and data is like this...
5/05/14 - Perry was on another call. LM 2/05/14 - Perry only at centre in the mornings, need to speak to him before sending samples. 13/06/13 - Perry in a meeting. lm 30/05/13 - See Little Hampton Early Learning - s/w Perry, has already received sample and info 29/05/13 - s/w Aspi, said to cb tomorrow and speak to Perry
I want to find each date in the Notes field so I can split the memo field data into another table where the memo field will become multiple records that hold date, text and customer/prospect ID fields. The customer table was easy because there was a <Div> tag before each date. However in the Prospects table there are no tags so how to change my vba code to search for each date before I split off the data.
Here is the part of the VBA code I used to find the <Div> tag in the customer notes field. How to find each date in the memo field? The date is in d/mm/yy format?
If Not rst.EOF Then
Do
StrSplit = Split(rst![Notes], "<Div>")
For x = 1 To UBound(StrSplit)
I am looking to find if a field contains a number and then build a case statement depending on which number is found. The field will contain data just like this:
Quote:
Repaired frequency response and grounding issues. Replaced 2 Hybrids, capacitors, and connectors. Tested MER/BER and operation to specs.
Here is my code that did not work:
Code:
If Me.txt_work_comm1 Like "*Hybrid" Then
'Sets up auto priced based on number of hybrids entered
'1 hybrid
If Me.txt_work_comm1 Like "*1" Then
strCriteria = "repair_item = 'Charter RF Amplifier Repair + 1 Hybrid' AND profile_types = 'Alpha'"
[Code]....
To Summarize:
1. I need to find if the word "Hybrid" or "Hybrids" is in the field
2. Then I need to know how many to determine a price
I have a table called login and inside that table is three columns: username, password and admin.
I have the username saved in a global variable called GsUser. How can i find the record in that table with the same Username as the string stored in GsUser and use that record for an if statement which sees if the value of the admin column is "Yes". Im trying to do it using VBA. Im not using a form where everything is bounded.
I have no experience with Access Modules which I think I need to find all the queries that reference a field, in this example: LAWSON_LHSEMPDEMO.R_STATUS
I would like for the module to list all the queries for me that reference this table and field of "LAWSON_LHSEMPDEMO.R_STATUS"
Is there an easy way to do this?
I have a main form that has a combo box (cboCurrentEmployeeName) to select an Employee Name. And then there is a subform within the same form that displays the list of active tasks.The record source for the subform is a query. The query is as follows. Please note that the tables are joined on employee-id and not the employee name.
SELECT TasksEntries.Project, TasksEntries.Task, TasksEntries.StartDate, TasksEntries.Status FROM TasksEntries INNER JOIN (SELECT EmployeeId FROM Employees WHERE Employees.EmployeeName=Forms!frmMainForm!cboCurren tEmployeeName) AS EmpList ON TasksEntries.EmployeeId=Emplist.EmployeeId WHERE TasksEntries.Status<>'COMPLETE';
The names of the fields in the subform are Project, Task, StartDate, Status and these are present in the subform only and not on the main form..I added an after update event on the cboCurrentEmployeeName which is as follows
Private Sub cboCurrentEmployeeName_AfterUpdate()
Me("StartDate").Form.Requery
End Sub
When I select an employee name from the combo box I get a runtime error 2465: Microsoft office can't find the field StartDate referred to in your expression. I get the same error doesn't matter what field I use.
I had the need every so often to quickly find all instances of any (particular) word within the database, without going to the bother of thinking about where that word/subject might be in the data base, I designed a report which does the job nicely. It uses a search form/control, searches and finds all instances of the word (or words) I have asked it to find, then does a report showing all instances of whatever RTF memo fields that contain the word(s).It has to be RTF memo field because (if I wish) it goes straight into the book text I'm writing, and also it searches the book's RTF memo field.
.
The trouble is, at present, I then have to manually "eye scan" the resulting report to find the occurrences of the "key searched for" word, nestling/hidden somewhere within sometimes quite large chunks of text. I would love to have the report show the found "key word(s)" highlighted in (say) light blue or whatever colour, so that I can quickly & easily lock on to it visually.
I enter the word I want Access to find, into a form called "formfindword" in a text box called Text0. I click on a command box on this form, to open up the report called "Querywhatsandhowschooseword" based on a query of the same name. The query's "what" field (from the main database) has the criteria
= Like "*" and [forms]![Formfindword]![Text0] & "*"
The query's "how" field criteria (in the "or" line of the query design) is also
= Like "*" & [forms]![Formfindword]![Text0] & "*"
I have tried to use the Conditional Format facility in Report Layout view, without any luck.I think therefore that I will need some VBA code (which is totally foreign to me, unfortunately) to make this simple concept a reality.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a database for work where I have a table of meters and a table of Faults which has a list of all faulty meters at one time. When a fault is repaired, I have a macro which updates the Meter Status to Working, adds a Fault Closed date, appends the record to the Closed table and then deletes it from the Faults table.
The user runs this from a form by clicking the Closed Fault button which activates the macro. I've added Echo on and off to hide that the form is temporarily closed while the Append and Delete queries are run and then it is re-opened again.
My problem is that the Form always opens at the first record in the Faults table. I would like it to open to the record which would have been next after the one that has been moved to the Closed Faults table.
Below is the code I have been using to test the Copying Meter Reference, closing and opening of the form and finding the correct record:-
Function CopyTest()
On Error GoTo CopyTest_Err
Dim strMeterRef As String
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.GoToRecord , "", acNext
strMeterRef = Meter_Reference
[code]....
As you can see I am trying to go to the next record, copy the Meter_Reference by setting it to strMeterRef and then Find strMeterRef when the Faults form is re-opened.
I have a Macro embedded in a button which calls the above Function by using RunCode but nothing happens.
I have two command buttons having two textboxes to populate. The way I am going to populate the text for both the textboxes is same but on separate clicks. Is there way to find which button (or control) is being clicked in runtime. I think I have done it a long back but not getting right now (I had a gap in my career). The keyword sounds like some 'Defaultcodecontrol' or something like that only.

When opening a form i get asked for a parameter value for a field that has been deleted. it obvioulsy still exists somewhere but I cannot find it. i have analysed performance, all tables, forms and queries but it doesn't come up with this filed anywhere. the field name has even been spelt wrong so i thought it would be easy to track! Help - what else can i do to find where this parameter is being called from??
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to convince Access to find a value and then convert said value into the name of the field it came from.
Below is my current code:
Code:
LowestMark:
Minimum([AvgOfOpening1],[AvgOfConfidentiality1],[AvgOfEmail1],[AvgOfTenureStatement1],[AvgOfOwnership1],[AvgOfClearExplanation],[AvgOfProbing1],[AvgOfUseofTools1],[AvgOfResolveBeforeS2S1],[AvgOfBridgeSolutions],[AvgOfSummarizeWrapUp1],[AvgOfOfferFurtherAssistance1],[AvgOfOneFaceOneVoice1],[AvgOfAppreciateBrandCox1],[AvgOfInteractwithCustomer1])
(Minimum is from a module that finds the lowest value in the list.)
I need my query to tell me which field gives that value.
Example:
Agent Name AvgOfEmail1
instead of:
Agent Name 41.7%
how to make this work?
Basically what I have is a form where operators can input certain information about a production process, in particular the kg input which has gone into the 'basket'. However this is divided by customer order number and sometimes more than one customers order is placed into the same basket. This means that the weight of the record is not representative of the weight in the basket, and it is the weight of the basket which determines efficiency in the process.
Each basket is designated a 'Disc Number' which is put in the basket so the parts contained can be identified after the process. What I am trying to do is right a code, whether in my table or form (or somehow creating a query) which compares the disc number of the previous record (or previous 2 or 3) and if they are the same the totals are combined. Each record the user places has a hidden ID which keeps them in order, and the records with the same disc number will always be entered after one another in that sequence.
How would I be able to code something to deal with this and where would I put it?The table in question which contains the records is called Thetatbl and then form it links to is Thetafrm. The weight of each record is contained in Orderkgtxt.
I have to deal with string arrays that store text. I need info on copying, comparing, appending arrays. Also on passing arrays as parameters to subs or functions. Where I can get to this info quickly without having to browse through many screens.
In addition to this I have some questions:
I have to find the duplicates of values in an array. Here is the code that I use.
Code:
Sub FindDuplicates()
Dim I As Integer, J As Integer, IEND As Integer, text() As String
ReDim text(IEND)
For I = 1 To IEND - 1
For J = I + 1 To IEND
If text(I) = text(J) Then text(J) = ""
Next J
Next I
End Sub
It works but is not performing well. Are there more efficient ways of doing this?
