Need Report To Show A Number Of Records Based On A Value In A Field Of A Table
Aug 9, 2006
Hi,
I have a table with a field that shows the number of pieces that a parcel contains. It looks like this:
ParcelID, Pieces, Description
Data example:
1001, 5, Jackets
1002, 10, shoes
etc
I need to print labels for each piece that shows to which parcel it belongs. The report will look like:
1001, Total pieces = 5, 1 of 5 pieces, Jackets
1001, Total pieces = 5, 2 of 5 pieces, Jackets
1001, Total pieces = 5, 3 of 5 pieces, Jackets
1001, Total pieces = 5, 4 of 5 pieces, Jackets
1001, Total pieces = 5, 5 of 5 pieces, Jackets
and
1002, Total pieces = 10, 1 of 10 pieces, shoes
1002, Total pieces = 10, 2 of 10 pieces, shoes
1002, Total pieces = 10, 3 of 10 pieces, shoes
1002, Total pieces = 10, 4 of 10 pieces, shoes
1002, Total pieces = 10, 5 of 10 pieces, shoes
If I could populate a table where the number of records equal the value of the pieces column then it's a pretty simple report but I can't figure this out.
I'm sure this should be simple but I can't figure it out. What I want is for a text box on a form to display the number of records within a table.
Basically I've got a make table query which creates a table ox X records depending on how many records in the original table match the criteria. So for example:
Table A has 100 records
Query identifies 30 that mee the criteria
Makes a new table called criteria_met with these 30 records
What I want is for a textbox on a form to display "30" and update whenever the make table query runs (probably via a macro??)
We want to send letters to clients on behalf of our salespeople on a weekly basis from a list of clients in a table. But some salespeople will have 5 letters go out and some will have 20 go out (depending on what amount the salesperson is able to followup on). I can store the weekly letter quantity number in the table no problem, but I am just not sure how to have the query show 5 letters for Bob and 20 letters for Sue. I know about the "Top N" setting in query design, but not sure how to set it to read from the table.
I have an append query that appends records to a table, and I have a form based on that table.
Users will click a button that will run the append query and then open a form for users to fill in remaining empty cells. How can I filter the form to show only the newly appended records?
I have a form that each day needs to be filled in by staff of their activities.
By selecting a date, I want to the textbox to display the contents of the comments memo pad field in the table (tblToday...columns are t_date and t_comments).
My very limited access and previous SQL knowledge has eluded me and cannot fathom how to get the text box to show data based on the date selected?
I am trying to create a table for income and expense [catergory] and would like the amount being entered into the [amount] field to have a negative or positive value on entering based on the category chosen.
so in my table I have
[catergory] which is chosen from a look up table ( which is either an INCOME or EXPENSE ) [amount] which is entered in the next field ( which has to return a positive or negative value based on the catergory choosen upon entering the data)
I would like to go one step further and indicate this negative value in red is possible in my FORM.
I am pretty new to MS access and have a question that I have not been able to figure out. I am making a database with a form to input the data in to the database. The only thing is I want to be able to search/lookup/record data by the products ID code and not by its record number. For example, product 1234 instead of entry number 1. How would I go about this? Thanks for your time!
I have fairly large table called QBInvoices that consist two fields- qbinv and date . Also, I have a report that showing info off query called TotalQueryQB. The table and query have no relations except dates . I need to show on report filed qbinv off table QBInvocies on the top of the reprot based on date. The user type date on form -frmQB text box txt Date and I would like to have contest of field qbinv off table QBInvocies on the top of the report base on date that was typed.
I'm an Access novice. I have a query based report that is based on several tables. All tables are joined by the same field "customer ID," but 1 table is not available under "Add Existing Fields." I cannot figure out why that table isn't available, but I need to add a field.
I have a database that I am creating for my work. I have a form that I am trying to get it to search the information from a table to pull the record on the form. I would like to search infomation such as employee id and wanting it to pull that information from the table.
I've looked through the thread and was unable to find exactly what I'm looking for ?
Basically I have a table with multiple fields & records and I would like to key on the ID field which has a slew of different ID's..... these ID's can be the same & show up on the table anywhere from 1 to 600 times.
What I'm trying to do is select each ID and pull only 10 records for each or if less than 10 pull in those as well.
So instead of pulling in the 600 records for that particular ID I only want to pull in 10 of those records, and for the ID that only has the 1 record pull in the info for that as well.
I've created a report and report has the same number of pages as the number of records that it's displaying.
If there are two records, the report has 4 pages...the first 2 are the actual report and then the other 2 are a copy. If there are 3 records, the report would have 3 copies (...6 pages).
Any idea how to change this so that I have only one copy of the report?
I have a continuous subform. Because the records are often many, the user needs to scroll down the page.
How do I have a text box in each row that shows Record x of Total Records?
I tried setting a text box control source = [currentrecord] in the Detail area of the subform but it didn't work . It did weird things because I suspect the control is trying to show the record that has the focus or something
I am trying construct a form that will only show an invoice if all the invoice records have been approved. I have created a form that will allow the user to look at each line of an invoice and has a checkbox to approve it. If the user has selected all the boxes it will disappear from the Approval view, which is a query that shows unique values.
The problem is that if all of the lines but one are checked it will also show up in the view for the unapproved invoices AND the approved invoices. I would like to know how to structure a query that shows unique values but ONLY if ALL of the invoice line items have been approved.
I have a form where we fill in information for supply of equipment to employees.
Each item must be signed for on a printed report.
I am encountering problems trying to create enough rows in my report detail for each signature of the items supplied.
For example, on the form I will select the "equipment" - 4 hats supplied and 3 boots. On the report I want the equipment set as the group and the detail to be a number or rows which equals the number of selected items. therefore under the Hats group heading I want 4 blank rows which are made up of 3 text boxes - Print Name, Signature & Date and another group heading for boots but with 3 lines.
Ok.. I have been racking my brain for hours trying to figure out how to do this. Maybe someone here can help me figure this out.
I have 2 tables. "AR94" & "RPIN" I need a query to look at the "Provider_PIN" field of both tables in order to find duplicates between that field in both separate tables at which point I need it to say If a duplicate provider_pin exists in the AR94 table & the RPIN table Then remove that provider_pin from the "RPIN" table.
The final result should be that the only records showing in the "RPIN" table would be those provider_pins' that were NOT found in both tables.
I have a form where someone enters a 'Job' to be done which in turn creates a record in a table with all this information
On the form I have a field called 'Repeat Frequency' where the user can choose how often they would like this 'Job' to repeat. e.g. Monthly
Then, on another form someone else can check what 'Jobs' should be done on that day
I have managed to get this to work fine using the DatePart function and it displays all jobs to be done that fall on the current day (e.g. if they choose to repeat it weekly, it will look for all entries where the datePart "d" [DateToBeDone] = Date()-7, -14, -21 and -28)
The problem is that i have been limited to the options of 'repeatability'
What i would like to do is change the options from 'Weekly', 'monthly' etc and instead have a field makrked "Repeat every so many days"
Is there a criteria i can use in a query where i can show records every so many days? i.e. if there is a job in the system that should repeat every 7 days and the [DateToBeDone] is set to 31/10/13, it would return this record on 07/11/13, 14/11/13, 21/11/13 and so on?
I Have tried DatePart ("d", [DateToBeDone]=DatePart ("d", (Date()-[RepeatDays] but what happens is it only shows it if the day is that many number of days in the past and not multiples as i said above.
I am trying to use Dcount to find the number of records in a query and put it on a text box in the header of a report. The query is a parameter query. The button opens a form which asks for start and end dates, the query reads those dates from the form and the report displays the correct number of records that fall within the date range. The query is based on another query, which is based on the table. I tried =dcount("*","qryName") but I get #error. Maybe becauase of dates? or parameters?
I have a form containing 4 text Boxes txt1, txt2, txt3 and txt4
I want
txt1 show records from table empDetail having age between 18 to 25 txt2 show records from table empDetail having age between 26 to 35 txt3 show records from table empDetail having age between 36 to 45 txt4 show records from table empDetail having age between 46 to 55
I have a list of all previous employers for a job applicant. I can enter up to 10 but I only want the boxes to show if there is a previous position for that box. So, if there are 3 previous positions, I want to see 3 lines. If there are 10, I want to see 10. I have fields [Company_1]. [Company_2], etc. I only want company 2 to show if the person has 2 previous positions entered into the form.
I have a query showing lots of records of equipment that is in different rooms. I would like to have a form where the user can bash in a room number and all the records from the query that have that room number in it pop up.
I have the below code to reset my subform after I have filtered it using some combo boxes. One of my fields in the underlying table had a calculated field so I'd get an error when clicking the reset button. I edited the query to update the 'type' field and deleted the calculated field in the table but now get another error. The exact error is 'Run-Time error '3327' Field 'Type' is based on an expression and cannot be edited.' It appears it will not reset my form and show all records as long as this field is based on an expression.
Code: Private Sub cmdReset_Click() 'Purpose: Clear all the search boxes in the Form Header, and show all records again. Dim ctl As Control 'Clear all the controls in the Form Header section. For Each ctl In Me.Section(acHeader).Controls Select Case ctl.ControlType
