I would like to make some changes to the Northwind sample database.I need to have the Customers section completely removed as my company issues products to our own staff, not to external customers, so there is no Customers and shipping details needed.
View RepliesI am trying to add extra validation in a sample db (done in A97 (converted to A2003)see attached.
I am attempting the following: Please not that the db has existing validation which I would like to keep (or change if advised) ...
Conditions:
1. Input into field "ID" must start with the letter P or p or R or r
2. If field "ID" starts with the letter P or p and field "Code" starts with the letter R or r, then a message stating that this combination is invalid should appear
3. If field "ID" starts with the letter R or r and field "Code" starts with the letter P or p, then a message stating that this combination is invalid should appear.
Below is code to adjust file attributes.
Code:
Public Shared Sub Main()
Dim path As String = "c: empMyTest.txt"
' Create the file if it exists.
If File.Exists(path) = False Then
File.Create(path)
[Code] .....
How can I adjust my required field so that you cannot simply enter a space bar character to circumvent the requirement?
Here is part of the code:
If IsNull([txtRequiredReason]) Then
MsgBox "The Reason field is required"
DoCmd.GoToControl "txtRequiredReason"
Else

Hey, its been a while since I've posted here, wow.
I had a database that contained samples on different date functions
(first of the month, last of the month, first weekday, etc...)
I can not find it, I have tried searching. I am pretty sure I got it from here.
Does anyone know where this is?
Hi,
I'm in over my head with something I've been asked to do at work as my access skills are pretty basic.
I need a sample database containing PRODUCTS and SUPPLIERS, that lets you book IN stock received from the supplier (and adds to the stock level) and lets you book OUT stock issued to staff (and reduces the stock level)
I'll have a go at reorder levels, form design, stuff like that myself, but I'm having trouble with these very basic requirements.
Does anyone know of a sample database that I can download to learn some of this from?
Hello all,
I finally got TreeView to work, by downloading the example database from this (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=80805&highlight=treeview) thread. I haven't had as much luck with ListView, though. Does anyone have a database they could post that has a working listview? I'd greatly appreciate it!!
Thanks,

Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if anybody would be kind enough to help me with a problem that I have with regards to a 'Contacts Database' that I found under the Sample Database link on this site - posted by MStCyr. When I try to navigate through A-Z buttons I am presented with a dialogue box which states " the object doesn't contain the Automation object 'RecordsetClone', whatever that means??
I would like to use this sample DB in my project however it is presently unusable unless I can figure out how to clear this problem. If this is not achievable could you please point me in the right direction where I could find a similar, downloadable file.
Hopefully a more experienced forum member than I could please help me out.........
Best Regards

Hello!
I'm still working on this supplier database for my boss and the supplier filter section is still causing me problems.
Let me set the scene for you....
I have a form with 3 combo boxes on it. These are cboProg, cboPPS & cboSupplier.
I need to get the combo's working so that when you select a programme from cboProg it filters the list in cboPPS (Primary Product or Service) to show only products and/or services that are used on that programme. In turn I need to make it so that when you select one of these Primary Product or Service's from cboPPS it filters the list of suppliers in cboSupplier to show only suppliers that provide that product or service.
Essentially, I have a HUGE list of suppliers that I want to filter down to suppliers that work on a programme providing a particular product or service using the combo boxes in the order shown below.
Programme (cboProg) --(filters)--> Primary Product or Service (cboPPS) --(filters)--> Supplier (cboSupplier)
When I have filtered the list of suppliers down to a list that worked on programme X, providing product or service Y, I'd like to make it so that you can just double click on that suppliers name to open their details.
I've based my previous efforts on a sample database called dbcombos that I found on this forum (I've attached it to this post). The only problem with this database is that it’s 2 sets of 2 tiered combo boxes on the same form and not a 4 tiered set of combo boxes as I originally thought.
Any ideas? All help greatly appreciated!

I am experiencing a problem with the mousetrap sample after I secured my database.
When I save on my main form and I try to go to my subform I keep getting the "Please Save this Record! You can not advance to another record until you either 'Save' the changes made to this record or 'Undo' your changed."
I have saved but it is still preventing me from going to the my subform. I numbered the Save Required msgs so that I know which one I am getting and I am getting the one from:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
On Error GoTo Err_Form_BeforeUpdate
Me.tbHidden.SetFocus
If Me.tbProperSave.Value = "No" Then
Beep
MsgBox "Please Save This Record!" & vbCrLf & vbLf & "You can not advance to another record until you either 'Save' the changes made to this record or 'Undo' your changes.7", vbExclamation, "Save Required"
DoCmd.CancelEvent
Exit Sub
End If
Exit_Form_BeforeUpdate:
Exit Sub
Err_Form_BeforeUpdate:
If Err = 3020 Then 'Update or CancelUpdate without AddNew or Edit
Exit Sub
Else
MsgBox Err.Number, Err.Description
Resume Exit_Form_BeforeUpdate
End If
End Sub
Above it is checking if tbProperSave.Value = "No" and in bSave you have
Case vbYes: 'Save the changes
Me.tbProperSave.Value = "Yes"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
Me.tbProperSave.Value = "No"
So it's setting the value to no again?
I know it's not a permissions thing because I am admin and have full permissions on the forms.
Any suggestions?
I am trying to create a button on an access form that will prompt the user to enter a search month and then export to excel all records in that database that match that month.
So, if the user prompt "what month" is October, then THE 30 records in the field [receivedate] that are in october (10/XX/XXXX) are exported to excel.
I have been trying to come up with a solution for a problem I am having for a while to no avail. We have a backend database that stores various tables full of data. We then have a custom Excel Ribbon that connects to the database and pulls in the different tables depending on the user selection form the ribbon. Everything is working well on that end. The problem I am running into though is that in the development phase of the ribbon and database we had multiple versions and so there are still some people who are using old versions of the ribbon and therefore not connecting properly to the database. Is there some type of code I can add into the database and ribbon where it checks for a specific version to ensure the user is using the most recent version?
Basically, before any type of query is run to connect to the database the ribbon would have some sort of label on it somewhere and the database would check for that label and if it is correct, the code proceeds and if not a message box appears that tells the user they are not using the most current version of the ribbon and exits the sub?
Hi,
I have a problem with form design,
I want a form like in Northwind sample database: Summary of Sales by Year Report.
It use Sorting and Grouping for Footer that I can't find it in Form design.
Is it any other way to do it in Form design so I can get the same result like in Report design?.
The reason why I want it, because I want to control the size.
thankyou in advance for your help.

I've been tasked with creating an Access database..We have a main table that includes information found on every lease, however there are 3 leases types. Each which lead to another table or two. Basically, I want to create a form that allows me to link the main table with the corresponding variable tables.
View 1 Replies View Relatedhow to read a specific line in a CSV file (using VBA), to see if the phrase "There are no records available." is present.
If it is present, then I'm going to do a debug.print stating that there are no records to load - and then the script will move on to the next file. If the phrase isn't present, then I'm going to upload the file to Access, parse the information, and then upload it to a CRM. (I already have the latter portion of the code up and running....I just need to account for the first part, where I can determine if the file has data or not).
The structure of the file never changes. The first row is composed of eight column headers (Post Date, Card Number, Card Type, Auth Date, Batch Date, Reference Number, Reason, Amount) and (if) the phrase "There are no records available." is present, it will show up on the second row, in the first column (under Post Date).
I know in access 2003 i can use:

First off, I'm really new to all this so I'm a little overwhelmed. I know what I want but may not describe it well.
I'm just trying to get a basic issue to work.
If I have 2 databases, one which has names, and another which has information - in memo form. What I'm trying to do is create a form which will allow me to bring up a persons name and have the subform query the information database for all information (events) which have this persons name listed inside.
I have tried both filters and queries and while I can get everything to work if I type in text in the queries in and/or filters if I try to use the value of the name in the main form nothing ever works...
Thanks...
How to adjust the column width of the fields to best fit in a Query using vba codes? Manually it can be done by selecting the Query - Click on More dropdown of the Reports section in the ribbon - Click on Column width - and select best fit as the option.I want this to happen by a vba code and not manually doing it everytime because the field length changes as it is a dynamically created Query.

I'm going crazy!! Someone who didn't really understand relational database theory (not like I'm an expert, but. . .) built a DB that is much more complicated than it needs to be. That person left and I got the job. I have to work with our IT people to hopefully redesign it completely (I would without asking, but they control the SQL server and the connection to the web.) but in the meantime, I have to work with a mess.
Okay, the question--I have to print a report of which organizations used which software company.
The table fields are:
Organization
Comp1
Comp2
Comp3
Comp4
etc.
the answers are a "1" for a yes and a "0" for no in the "Comp" fields, so there is an answer in every field of a record. Essentially, it's a spreadsheet.
Off the top of my head, I know I could query each Company name with the court individually and then union query them all together. But isn't there any easier way? We're talking about 15 queries if I do it that way!
Anyway, thanks for any help you can give--this is driving me crazy (over 40 table set up in similar disarray. . . .)
I have created a form using Create|Form.
I have now opened it in Design view and wish to adjust the width of the controls - text boxes etc but when I try to adjust one, all of the text boxes in that column are adjusted.
How do I individually adjust the widths?
I've created an Access Report of a letter to be printed and mailed to customers. The majority of the letter is text, however there is a subform in the middle that will have a wide range of records displayed in it. This causes the subform's height to adjust from 1/2" to several inches, depending on the number of records. I need the text below the subform to start just below the last record in the subform, no matter how many records are displayed in the subform.

I have a database that I use to put in orders for our shop and keep track of our part informations as well as paint and packing materials. Everything works good on this but I am trying to create a table for adjusting quantities on hand for packing material based on the part quantities and for adjusting paint in stock based on information given to me after the job is run.
There is already a relationship between parts and packing material as well as parts and paint. When I put an order in I would like to have it adjust out that many packing materials that are related to that part. Once a job is run I need to be able to adjust out the amount of paint used.
For the paint side of this I want it to track the paint used by order, we are trying to get a grasp on how much paint we are using for parts so it is important for me to know how much and when.
I am thinking I need a table that connects paint to orders and has quantities in it, then create a query and do the calculations from there... I do not know how to accomplish that but it sounds like it could be right...
