Hello. My question is how do I go about moving data from one field to another within a table? I want to move the data in ReportDateClo to ReportDatCom when both ReportDateClo and SupAct are true by record which are identified by the field LogNum. It is probably very simple but I am having a brain cramp.
ReportDateClo and ReportDatCom are "short date" date fields. SupAct is a Yes/No field. LogNum is an autonumber.
Ok my problem is this......
I have a form with a field "Property Status" on it. It has 4 possible values -
"C - SHELTERED (with warden charge)";"H - SHELTERED (No warden charge)";"J - WHEELCHAIR SHELTERED (With warden charge)";"M - WHEELCHAIR SHELTERED (No warden charge)";"X - DISCONNECTED"
When the value "X - DISCONNECTED" is selected in the form I want the record to be removed from its existing table and sent to a new table which keeps all the "X - DISCONNECTED" records together.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. How would this be coded?
Ok here is what I've got.
I have a table called (EQUIP REG)
It contains all the information to the equipment in the hospitol.
next i have a table called (WO REG)
It contains all the information for the workorders for the equipment.
In the EQUIP REG table I have field titled (PM) this is the date that the equipment is due for PM's. Now I could just run a query for all the equipment on a given date called "MONTHLYPM" and then "open" the workorders by hand....but would be an all day job becuase there are nearly a thousand PM's a month. What i need is a wuery to run off of the above mention query that will copy the some data from the EQUIP REG table to the WO REG table. I only need the fields called "MMCN" "SERIAL" "MODEL" and "LOCATION"
I know very little about access and even less about VBA, so who ever is brave enough to help me must be able to talk on a very low level.
thanks for any help in advance. :)
I am working on a calibration database which keeps track of measurement equipment and their scheduled calibration date. There are several gages that become "In-Active" because they are old, lost, or whatever. I have two tables that have Active and In-Active gage listings containing all of the pertinent information regarding that gage. I would like to put a button in the Active gage form which in the event the gage becomes "In-Active", pressing the button moves all of the information in the "Active" page to a new page in the "In-Active" table. So essentially one can look at Active gages and In-Active gages depending on the switchboard button that is clicked.
I know that is probably a crazy question but any thoughts or insight would be greatly appreciated.
My boss has assigned a task for me to move the details under a field name (eg:[Name]) in table 1 to table2 under another field name (eg [Insured Name]).
Previously, the software I planned to use is Excel, but my boss says Excel cannot handle large data as the computer will be hanging.So,he wants me to use Access to do the programming.I have some programming backgrounds (like C++) but it seems like I hardly understand how Access works! So can any Access expert here teach me how to do so that i won't get fired.
Firstly, We will have the data like this.
Table1
Code:
Name | PolicyNo | Age | Benefit
--------+----------------+----------+-----------
Chris | 123 | 21 | Death
Jane | 456 | 34 | TPD
Adam | 789 | 55 | DD
Secondly, we let the other staffs to key in which column to be mapped with the other. Manually Key in (both columns).Mapping Table:
Code:
Table1 | Table2
--------------+-------------------
Name | InsuredName
Policy No | Pol_No
Benefit | InsuredBenefit
Age | InsuredAge
Thirdly, the staff will run the VBA and result would be like this.
Table2
Code:
InsureName | Pol_No | InsuredBenefit | InsuredAge
--------------+--------------+----------------------+----------------
Chris | 123 | Death | 21
Jane | 456 | TPD | 34
Adam | 789 | DD | 55
As you can see the new table(table2) , field number 3 is the same with the field number 4 in table1. There is something like copy and paste job, but user can decide how the arrangement for the new table is.
I have a Macro Which my team members fill and submit the information of their daily workload. And the person who Submits has a Pivot table to check if the Workload that he has submitted has been QCed or not.
I have made 2 Tables one is temporary database and other is a master Database, I keep clearing the Temp Database because when users refresh the Pivot table it takes less time if there is less data and Vice Versa.
Problem Statement: When a particular Column is updated for example "QC Result" column is updated as "Green" or "Red" the entire column needs to be moved to the Master Table.
I have two listboxes on a form listbox1 and listbox2. listbox1 is populated by table1 which has 40 fields and 1000 records. listbox2 is populated by table2 which has identical structure to table1(same fields) but has no records.
For both listboxes Multi Select is set to simple. Rowsource is Select * statement from tables. Row Source Type is set to Table/Query.
I would like to select multiple records from listbox1 and add them to listbox2 and table2 or just table2. After selecting the records from listbox1 the user will click a button to add the records to table2. Also need to delete the values selected from table1 on same button click.
The database is saved with a .mdb file extension.
Well I have two tables, one is the workorder register and the other is the closed work orders. This is for maintenance. I have a form for creating and veiwing workorders. I need to link a command button to the form that will delete the record being viewed in the WO REG table and paste it in the Closed WO table. I think I need to use two append queries but have no idea what I am doing. Here is what I have so far.
INSERT INTO [CLOSED WO] ( WO, MMCN, TECH, NOMIN, FUALTS, TYPE, [SECTION], CLOSEDATE, OPENDATE )
SELECT [WO REG].[WO], [WO REG].[MMCN], [WO REG].[TECH], [WO REG].[NOMIN], [WO REG].[FUALTS], [WO REG].[TYPE], [WO REG].[SECTION], [WO REG].[CLOSEDATE], [WO REG].[OPENDATE]
FROM [CLOSED WO], [EQUIP REG] INNER JOIN [WO REG] ON [EQUIP REG].[MMCN]=[WO REG].[MMCN]
WHERE ((([WO REG].[WO])=[WHAT WO TO CLOSE?]));
Like I said I have no idea what I am doing, this is out of the SQL view for my "move to closed WO" query. the fields I need to move are WO, MMCN, TECH, NOMIN, FUALTS, TYPE, SECTION, CLOSEDATE, and OPENDATE.
Is this even remotly right? I know nothing of VBA an all these symbols mean nothing to me.
Howdy all!I am new to Access (only using 2 weeks) and have never taken a class. I am trying to update a DB for my company. []=Table {}=Field What needs to be done is as follows:When a new Purchase Order form is filled out each material ordered has a {ProductNumber} and has a {price}. The {ProductNumber} is the PK in the [Inventory], while this {price} is saved in the [OrderDetails] table (in the Price field)The table called [Inventory] stores info about the products (such a manufacturer, serial number, latest price).However, as it comes time to order new materials the prices have changed.That is, when a new PO form control {Price} is filled out, [OrderDetails]{Price}records the price and product number. I need the [Inventory]{Price} to update the LATEST {ProductNumber}'s price when a new purchase order is completed. Is this difficult?

I have a database with existing data, that is not normalized, and all the data is in one field...:eek: This what I am dealing with:
As you notice the first row of data in field1 C10A CHOLEST&TRIGLY has 3 spaces to the right the next row ALTORVASTIN has five spaces to the right, the next line LIPITOR has 7 spaces to the right, and so forth, hopefully you get at what I am trying to do, I just looked at the data and it is not showing up in view of the leading spaces, but I am trying to move the data based ONLY one the position of leading spaces, example all data that has 3 leading spaces would go into its own separate column, and all data that has 7 leading spaces would go into a separate column, I have tried to use the left, mid, len functions but I cannot figure out how to move the text and keep it whole only by data position of spaces.
Field1:
C10A CHOLEST&TRIGLY
ATORVASTATIN
LIPITOR
PFIZER
SIMVASTATIN
SIMVASTATIN TEVA

I have two particlular listboxes in an Access Form the first is named listEmp and the second is listAllocated
The source of the first is a query which is based on previous combo boxes.

Hi, I have data from a form on my website in a text file, that corresponds to each visitor's input, each 13 lines in the form belongs to one visitor, as shown (twice) at the end of this message.
What I would like to do is have each visitors inputs translated to ONE row, with 13 columns/fields each. It could be appended to the same table or preferably generated in a new one. Note, there are no blank fields, some won't have data after their title, i.e. addy_line_2: is often blank, but at the very least, addy_line_2: or another field name is always there.
It would ROCK if I could also automatically take the name of each field out, i.e. each name is continuous characters up to the : (colon) ...
Thanks in advance, my Access knowledge is obviously limited, I'm sure this is fairly simple!

Hi,
I was wondering if i can get some help here. The aim here is moving data from excel to Access '03.
At the moment, i'm having troubled in finding out a way to open a database and execute SQL - insert the data into the table.
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
With cn
.Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
.ConnectionString = "Data Source= C:MydocumentsmyDB.mdb;Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;"
.Open
End With
then, i got stuck in here whereby i need to execute the SQL insert command to insert record to the table.
Appreciates your help greatly
Thank you in advance
Hello,
I am looking for a way to use the dblClick function to move the current row of a list box to another. The idea is that users can look through data and pick certain rows to be printed in a report. I am not sure how to go about doing this and am not sure if it is the best way. The second listbox is so the user can review their selections before printing a report.
Thanks,
Kristopher
I have 4 drop down lists calling values from a query.
This part works as expected.
However, I would like the focus to automatically change to the next drop down field after ANY (valid) entry is made.
IE
Drop Down 1: "any value" ----> focus automatically set to Drop Down 2, etc
The code I have only relates to 1 of the drop down values, I want it to rerlate to any of the values.
*************
Private Sub Question1_AfterUpdate()
If Me.Question1 = "Yes" Then
Me.Question2.SetFocus
End If
End Sub
*************
My values are simple, just "yes" "no" "I don't know", etc.
OR
If this cannot be done with drop downs, how about with field lists?
:cool:
Hi, I have a form set up, among other fields in the form is a Weekly update
free form field. I have another field called Historical Weekly updates. What
I want to happen is that when a user clicks in the Weekly updae field, the
text that is in there should pop down to the Historical field and have the
date of the move post next to the text in the historical field. I have no idea if this is a click action, a macro, or if it's even possible.Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks!!!
I have a form we use for data entry, and not all the fields willhave data in them. When we click the new record button the cursor stays in the field where it was for the last record. We would like the cursor to move to the first field on the form everytime a new record is started.
Can anyone help me out here??
Thanks

If I have a field in a tabbed form (the form has pages), can this field be moved from a tab to another programatically?
The form is called "ProjectMain". The field is called "Lenght" and the page (form tab) it is on is "specs1". Sometimes I need to have this field in the page (form tab) "specs2"
ok ive read some responses to people having trouble or need to know how to move a record from one table to another...
i have two tables. One with member and another with thier siblings.
i have two forms. one with the member details which contain a command box to open the other form for their siblings. the siblings form is a tabular form so when i double clikc the siblings form i can all the children but when i open it from a specific member only their children are shown.
each member has a memberID (primary key). but the siblings have the same ID as their father(member)
i have put a commmand box in the siblings form next to every sibling. what i want is that when i click this button the record moves to the members column.
i only know the very basics of VB...so a step by step explination would be helpful...
this is very specific and if more information is required please ask here or ask for my msn address.
Thank you in advance
I have several thousands of lines of data which I wish to manipulate programmatically, if at all possible. I think that all of the possible permutations are summed-up by the following examples :
123 A text string
2-8 Another text string
A-C Another text string here
3-20 And some more text
3A-126B More text
Some text without any numbers or letters at the left
What I need to do is :
Move the alphanumeric data at the left to the right. So the data would end up looking like this :
A text string 123
Another text string 2-8
Another text string here A-C
And some more text 3-20
More text 3A-126B
Some text without any numbers or letters at the left
I suppose it hinges on identifying where the first space in from the left appears, cutting the string at that point, and
Is this possible, programmatically ?
Hello,
I have a big table like this:
ID Name Race1 Race2 Race3
-- ---- ----- ----- -----
1 a Asian russian
How do I create a query to be like this (either in query or report)?
I like to combine three fields (race1, race2, race3) in one field (Race), and break any value of races to the 2nd line, 3rd line, if there is a value...
ID Name Race
-- --- ----
1 a Asian
Russian
In Oracle and SQL Server, we can combine a few rows to be columns-like, but in Access, is there any way to do that? and how?
Thanks so much!
Jenny.
Say i have two tables
1 = computers (it holds info about the computers)
2 = Repair (this table holds only the PCs that are under repair)
I want to be able to move one computer record to Repairs table as soon as i select that "this pc is under repair" on a form. So it does not show up on my report of computers in hand and shows up on computers in repair.
and when i get the pc back from repair, i want to be able to select "back in stock" and it'll move the record back to Computers tables & removes tht record from repairs table
is there a way i can do this automatically (without manually move a record)?
Any suggestions - web links or examples will be much appreciated.
Thank you
