Multi Field Validation

May 25, 2005

Found some great code, else where that perhaps someone else can use.

Each required fields tag property - change to required
Dim blnContinue As Boolean
Dim ctl As Control
blnContinue = True
For Each ctl In Me.Controls
If ctl.Tag = "Required" Then
If IsNull(ctl) Then
MsgBox "Required Information Missing", vbCritical + vbOKOnly + vbDefaultButton1, "You must fill in the x xx xxx xxxx fields"
Cancel = True
ctl.SetFocus
Exit For
End If
End If
Next ctl
Set ctl = Nothing
End Sub

I created a field in access 2010 called OptionalSubjects . It is a multi value field where a user can select multiple values from the combo box, the selection are ID from a query. Now i want to limit the user to only two selection from the multiple values available and not less than two. So the field is either NULL or two selection only. How can I achieve this in validation rule or vba.

Validation Rules Tying A Field To Another Field

Sep 7, 2006

Hi all. As always, thanks in advance for the input.

I'm building a database of housing developments done by my organization. There are a number of rules that I would like to enforce--many of the rules for data entry in a given field, depend on the value entered in a separate field. For example, if someone enters "Residential" in the BldgType field, then the Affordability field cannot be Null (If they enter "Commercial" for BldgType, the Affordability field CAN be Null).

Similarly, if someone enters "LLC" in the PartnerType field, then the value in the PartnerRole field must be either "Member" or "Managing Member", whereas if they enter "LP" in PartnerType, then the value of PartnerRole must be either "Managing General Partner", "General Partner", or "Limited Partner."

Field Validation

Jun 19, 2005

I have little problem that I am struggling to find an answer to. When I output a piece of data from my text box, it must be either 10 or 11 characters long when it goes into the receiving data base. I just wonedered if anyone knew of a way of validating the text box to ensure that it met this criteria before output. Input mask is not an option, as other receiving databases may not require the validation.

Hope I explained that OK

I'm using Office 2003 by the way

Help With Field Validation

Dec 27, 2005

I am creating a database using Access 2000 that requires validation on a date in a field (it is a short date e.g. 24/11/2005). I need to create a validation rule that only accepts Saturdays. I have an algorithm (see attachment) that can turn a date into a number, which relates to a specific day however I do not know how to implement this using access. Any algorithm tutorials, help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. This is my first post so I am sorry if this tread is in the wrong set of topics

Multi-field Index

Dec 29, 2005

I am trying to set a multiple field index on a table. I would like to use 3 fields. One is a text field, the other two are date fields. The text field and one date field will always have a value. The other date field can either have a value or no value. The index will work if I only use the text field and date field that always have values. If I try to add the third field, it will not find a duplicate record. Can I not include a field that may have a null value?

I want if of course anyone can help me to Validate the next Invoice Number Not To Be Dublicate and to automatically Increment.

I can manage to increment the values in one field Invoice number but I can not incoporate the Invoice Series.

Any help would appreciated.

Note : I'm not good in VB so please be kind to me.

Kind regards

UK Postcode Field Validation

Nov 1, 2006

Hi,

I have a postcode field on a form that allows 8 characters. e.g. ST10 8BY including the space in the middle.
The only validation I have been able to use thus far is the above but I would like to know how to validate two letters (AA) then between 1 and 2 numbers (11) etc.

Is there any code/built in functions that allows this. I know there is an input mask but if I use that, I can set the poscode format up like ST10 8BY but it thinks that the rule has been broken if the postcode was changed to S10 8BY by removing the T. This is also a valid postcode.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

Multi Record/Query/Multi Table/Going Crazy Issues

Sep 7, 2007

I have spent the last couple of days trying to figure out how to make this work.

I have three tables.

tblIntakeMain
[IntakeMainID]

tblIncidentDetails
[IncidentdeatailsID]

tblPersonnel
[PersonnelID]

On the main form I use subforms to link tblIncidentDetails and tblPersonnel to tblIntakeMain. Both subforms can, and do, have many entries. This all works fine. What is not working is the search form I am using.

I am using Gromits most excellent Search Form. The problem is when I create a query, qSearch, to bring together the three tables I get a multiple records which makes the searches very confusing and near useless. Is there anyway around this? Is there something I am missing? Is there another search method I could use that would work in a similar way as Gromits? Please help before the Prozac runs out and I lose my mind--what little it left.

Multi-table, Multi-criteria: Avoid Repeating Records

Apr 10, 2008

Hi everyone. Apologies if this has come up before, but the search terms I've tried here and on google keep turning up the wrong information.

At work I manage a large database with many tables. It stores data for participants in a research study. Each table stores the data for a different test, so one participant may have multiple records. Primary keys for these tables are defined by a combination of the participant and date of test fields. (Everything is dependent upon a table that stores the static info for participants, so the database is normalized.)

I want to be able to make a table that lists target participants and dates, and then create a query that looks at this table and pulls all the available data from various tables for those individuals that was recorded within one year of the target dates.

I've successfully made queries that meet these criteria while pulling data from only one table. The problem I'm having is that when I try to pull from multiple tables, each with it's own date field that needs to be used as a criterion, I end up excluding almost all the data, because most of the target participants do not have all the requested data within the target dates.

I've tried being inclusive with my criteria (using ORs), but then I end up with tons of data that I don't want and I need to filter through it, which defeats the purpose of the query.

Any advice on handling this issue, or do I basically just need to create a separate query for each table?

I'm sorry if this is too vague, but it's illegal for me to upload any of my own dataset. I could probably come up with an example if it's helpful, though.

Thanks!

Forms :: Subform With A Multi-value Field

Jul 1, 2013

Every time I mentioned multi-value fields I get the same input, don't use them. So I am trying to replace this field with a junction table. This will have multiple records for each record in the original subform. The only problem is that the original subform is set to continuous view and now I get the error that "you can't view a form as a continuous form if it contains a subform".

Multi-Value Field Does Not Submit Selection On OK

Sep 2, 2014

I know many are opposed to multi-valued fields, but in this case it works out nicely for my purposes.. I pick a couple things from a table to put into a field in a separate table via multi-value lookup, and when I hit ok, nothing happens. Literally. Tried the enter button, tried a mess of different keyboard mashing, and nothing. URL....

Row Source:
SELECT [Cage Codes].[CageCode], [Cage Codes].[Company], [Cage Codes].[Division] FROM [Cage Codes] ORDER BY [CageCode];

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 ?

Validation Rule On Field In A Table

Apr 10, 2007

Hi

I have a form which people fill in (made up of fields from Table1) to record when sick days.

On the form, they have to enter the "week commencing" (which is set at Medium Date format); then they have to enter in a first day (which is set at Short Date format).

The First Day should be no more than 7 days from the date that they enter in the Week commencing field on the form.

I want an error message to pop up if they do this, for example:

Week commencing: 1st April 2007
First Day: 10th April 2007

(because the 10th April 2007 is more than 7 days from the 1st April). But it would be ok if they did this:

Week commencing: 1st April 2007
First Day: 8th April 2007

Help???

thanks!

I've got a table called Employee Payroll.
In it there are several earnings fields. They all have a drop- down box which consists of three values, £2.50, £2.75 and £3.10. Is it possible to make this into a validation rule so that the user can't enter other values?
Thanks
