I have attacked quite a few guides ( Dummies & Absolute Beginners ) on how to build a database of my gardening clients, but have run into a problem that they can't seem to resolve. Is there anyone out there who can help me with "referential integrity" and trying to link relationships between the various tables I have created.

I have a xml schema which defines all things necessary (tables, field names, relationships, etc) to build a database in access. The question is whether Access could decode xml schema and build the database (create all tables, fields and relationships) automatically by macro or something else. I have tried to load xml schema by using external data in Access. However Access can only recognize some tables, not everything.

I then import this table to Access. I have not been able to figure out how to have Access perform this. In Excel, I use an "if" statement.

I'm trying to build up a database for Multiple choice questions quiz in MS access 2010.My requirement are as follows
My quiz consist of 15 questions. Each questions carry some weightage. Suppose a question carries a weightage of 5 and there are two correct options like A & C. If user selects option A then he gets half marks.Multiple users can access the test at the same time.
I have an old database that would come in handy as a membership roster, but if someone drops out, how do I delete them from the database? I tried deleting the fields, but the blank form is still there. Also, I would sure like to add a search feature so I could go directly to an individual without scrolling through all the names. Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thanks

Hello,
Hoping some one could assist me? I am busy designing a database which I am going to put in access.
I have designed the tables and am now not sure how to link them. I was given an excell spreadsheet with headings and am now trying to make this into a database. Example : I was given Co-ordinator Name - Which I now split up into:
Co_First_Name
Co-Last_Name
Co_Initials
Co_Area_Code
Co_Tel_Number
Co_Mobile
Co_Email
Now there other fields like this , for example Regional Manager Name - which I have split up as above into a seperate table.
These fields all relate back to one Code - Called District
There are also a fields which needs to show the a fee required the fee paid and fee outstanding/balance .
The rest of the information required I can create check boxes for , I hope!
Anyway my question is how do a relate all these different tables together?
This is my mental block. And the check box tha information - is it stored a another table? I hope I am explaining my self correctly and I hope some one can make sense of my question
Hi there,
I am designing a search tool for a database table which has attributes such as part number, manufacturer's part number, description, etc. Each item in the database has all these attributes associated with it.
When I search, I am trying to allow a popup to occur when I want to access a modified report that has my search results computed. I created a query and a report, added some SQL code to it, etc. I can basically click the report and have my inquiry window come up asking for the part number, but I'm not sure if it's associated with my database because when I put in the #, the report comes up blank.
I right-clicked my Report and look under "Objects that I depend on" and my Queries tree is full of dependencies that point me to my database table. There is, however, still no report with any substance that I can pull up no matter what part # I put in.
Does anyone know what's going on? I know this is really easy and it's driving me crazy cause I've never used Access before. I don't necessarily have time for tutorials and any lesson enrollment since it's for work, and my profession has absolutely nothing to do with this. Ha.
Thanks for any help you may be able to offer.

I am developing a database for a friend and have all the relationships,
tables, forms, queries and reports working well. I used the orders template to
build this and just made a few changes. I have an orders form with an orders details
subform that works beautifully. There is also customers table, employee table,
products and inventory table. The inventory table has product ID, units in stock and reorder level
as the only fields. I need an easy way to have the orders detail form decrease inventory as
items are ordered and also some sort of way to enter restock. Can anyone offer advice that a
beginner can understand in regard to this?
I wrote an update query that he can run that will subtract the qty ordered from the units on stock
for orders with order date >= whatever date he enters, but if he enters a date he's previously updated it will update those records again. I think this is not a good way to go but the only way I could accomplish. I have him using the same order entry form with customer name Restock to add items to inventory by putting an if then else statement in the before mentioned update query. This just adds to inventory if customer name="Restock" else the qty ordered is inventory units in stock -qty ordered.
I'm sure someone can suggest a better way. A friend mentioned dsum function but can't explain how to apply it in this instance. Thanks so much!!!!
How do I build a form which will pull only certain work orders from my table [Work Orders], filter it through a query, [Payroll] which gives me only those work orders which match a certain repID#, for only certain Invoice Dates, and and then display a talley of the total number of times a certain product appears in the field [ProductSold] on the query [Payroll]?

Can anybody help me build the last table in my database? I have taught myself Access – and can usually get by with a little help from this forum. I have been trying for days to try and solve this !!!
The database is designed to manage feedback questionnaires from attendees of training courses.
I have attached the relationship diagram.
- A course may run for several days. The details of the course are held in the table ‘Courses’. During a course, attendees may be asked to fill in several Questionnaires
- An Attendee is a Person that attends a Course. Attendees are held in the table ‘Attendees’ and their details are held in the table ‘Person’.
- There is a ‘Library’ of questions that sit in the table ‘Questions’
- The questions can be assembled into “Standard Questionnaires”. These sit in the table called “Questdesign” which is a junction table. Assembling a Standard Questionnaire involves using a form to pick questions and give them an order (Qnumber). I HAVE DONE THIS.
- A specific “Questionnaire” is a “Standard Questionnaire” that is used on a specific course. The list of Questionnaires is held in the table “Questionnaire”
- Scoresheet is the junction table between Attendee and Questionnaire (an Attendee on a course may fill in several Questionnaires and a Questionnaire may be filled in by lots of Attendees.)
I now need a table (Scores) in which to put all the scores to the questions (in other words, the scores of the questions on the Questionnaires that are completed by the Attendees on a Course.)
At the end of the day I am aiming to have a form in which:
The Attendee number is entered and all the person’s details are filled in automatically) – I HAVE DONE THIS
The Questionnaire number is entered and all the course details are filled in automatically – I HAVE DONE THIS
A Scoresheet ID is filled in (Autonumber) - I HAVE DONE THIS
A subform appears which shows the right set of questions and question numbers for the appropriate Questionnaire – with a blank column so that the user can fill in the scores which get stored in the Scores Table. - I CAN'T DO THIS !!!
I cannot work out where to link my Scores table and how to build a query that drives the correct behaviour of the subform
I hope I have explained this clearly. I would be so grateful for any help. This Forum is fabulous.
Many thanks

I have some database with columns 'Number', 'Mfr Name' and 'Mfr Part Number'.
Number - internal catalogue item of a company.
Mfr Name - name of a manufacturer where from we purchase the item
Mfr Part Number - part number of a manufacturer where from we purchase the item
Each item may have one or more Mfr Name & Mfr Part Numbers.

I need to build a following query:
Input gets part of Mfr Part Number and output is all Mfr Name & Mfr Part Number of match item.
Hello All
Does anyone know how you might build sliding bar displays as an input device for scores into an Access database? I am building an application that could really use something like this.
Here is an example. First go to the 'Chelsea tab', slide the bars, submit the results, and see the results on the "Results" tab

How can I build a date in a query that is used for filtering purposes? The data is in the records in two fields - Month and Year. In our query we have an expression that builds a date - DateRange: [Month]/1/[Year] in order to qualify the record with the criteria Between FromDate and ThruDate. DateRange as it is shown here returns a date of 12/30/1899 for all records. DateRange: #[Month]/1/[Year]# is invalid syntax. DateRange: [Month] & "/" & 1 & "/" & [Year] is not recognized as a date.

The user wants to be able view data in a pivotChart without seeing interim versions- so 4.5.200512 would not show up but its data would be counted as part of 4.5. Anybody know how I can do this?

Hi everybody,
Let's say that I've got the following tables:
- tblCustomers(IDCust,NameCust)
- tblEmployees(IDEmpl,NameEmpl)
- tblProjects(IDProj,IDCust,IDEmpl,Duration)
My query:
SELECT tblCustomers.NameCust, tblProjects.IDProj, tblProjects.Duration, tblEmployees.NameEmpl, Sum(tblProjects.Duration) AS SumOfDuration
FROM (tblProjects INNER JOIN tblEmployees ON tblProjects.IDEmpl = tblEmployees.IDEmpl) INNER JOIN tblCustomers ON tblProjects.IDCust = tblCustomers.IDCust
GROUP BY tblCustomers.NameCust, tblProjects.IDProj, tblProjects.Duration, tblEmployees.NameEmpl
ORDER BY tblCustomers.NameCust;
What I'd like get when running my query is:
NameCust ------ IDProj - Duration ----- NameEmpl ------- ?????????
CUST1 ---------- 1 ------ 3 ------------ EMPL3 ---------- 7
CUST1 ---------- 2 ----- 10 ------------ EMPL4 --------- 10
CUST1 ---------- 9 ------ 2 ------------ EMPL3 ---------- 7
CUST1 --------- 11 ------ 2 ------------ EMPL3 ---------- 7
CUST1 --------- 13 ------ 8 ------------ EMPL1 ---------- 9
CUST1 --------- 18 ------ 1 ------------ EMPL1 ---------- 9
CUST2 ---------- 3 ----- 20 ------------ EMPL1 --------- 20
CUST2 ---------- 4 ----- 12 ------------ EMPL3 --------- 17
CUST2 ---------- 5 ------ 3 ------------ EMPL2 ---------- 4
CUST2 --------- 10 ------ 5 ------------ EMPL3 --------- 17
CUST2 --------- 17 ------ 1 ------------ EMPL2 ---------- 4
CUST3 ---------- 6 ----- 25 ------------ EMPL4 --------- 27
CUST3 --------- 14 ------ 2 ------------ EMPL1 --------- 14
CUST3 --------- 15 ------ 2 ------------ EMPL4 --------- 27
CUST3 --------- 16 ----- 12 ------------ EMPL1 --------- 14
CUST3 --------- 19 ------ 2 ------------ EMPL2 ---------- 2
where ???????? (manually done) = the sum of the Employee duration for ONE Customer !!!
But what I get instead:
NameCust ------ IDProj - Duration ----- NameEmpl ------- SumOfDuration
CUST1 ---------- 1 ------ 3 ------------ EMPL3 ---------- 3
CUST1 ---------- 2 ----- 10 ------------ EMPL4 --------- 10
CUST1 ---------- 9 ------ 2 ------------ EMPL3 ---------- 2
CUST1 --------- 11 ------ 2 ------------ EMPL3 ---------- 2
CUST1 --------- 13 ------ 8 ------------ EMPL1 ---------- 8
CUST1 --------- 18 ------ 1 ------------ EMPL1 ---------- 1
CUST2 ---------- 3 ----- 20 ------------ EMPL1 --------- 20
CUST2 ---------- 4 ----- 12 ------------ EMPL3 --------- 12
CUST2 ---------- 5 ------ 3 ------------ EMPL2 ---------- 3
CUST2 --------- 10 ------ 5 ------------ EMPL3 ---------- 5
CUST2 --------- 17 ------ 1 ------------ EMPL2 ---------- 1
CUST3 ---------- 6 ----- 25 ------------ EMPL4 --------- 25
CUST3 --------- 14 ------ 2 ------------ EMPL1 ---------- 2
CUST3 --------- 15 ------ 2 ------------ EMPL4 ---------- 2
CUST3 --------- 16 ----- 12 ------------ EMPL1 --------- 12
CUST3 --------- 19 ------ 2 ------------ EMPL2 ---------- 2

Hi all.
I have been given a simple task, but i have no idea how to do it! I need a form to do the following:
User types in a reference, for example TEST1
We have a standard link along the lines of http://www.testtesttest.com/blaablaa/
We need access to append the "TEST/1" (or whatever the user has entered) to the end of the link, so the result would be:
http://www.testtesttest.com/blaablaa/TEST1
I would be extremely greateful of someone could let me know the best way of getting this done.
Kind Regards

(Dear Admin, don't be mad I posted this post elsewhere but had no luck with answers)
Please guys, I just forgot how to do this:
I have a table with primary key (id) and sort of secondary key (id1). Several rows can have same id1.
id id1
1 1
2 1
3 1
4 1
5 3
6 3
7 4
8 4
9 4
...
I need to count the id1 - how many different id1 values are there.
This doesn't work:
SELECT COUNT(id1) FROM table GROUP BY id1
this also doesn't work:
SELECT COUNT(id1) FROM table
As I recall, it was something about DISTINCT function or something like that...?
Please help, I'm sure it's totally simple, but I'm stuck.

Hi, I'm new to Access.
I'm trying to do a very simple thing but I can't.
Let's say I sell a lot of cars, every day so I need a database only to collect info about selling. I need a table (SoldCars) which need refers (read: field) to 2 other tables: 1.Constructor and 2.Model, or only to Model (because Construvctor could be redundant). Anyway, when I register a new sold car, I want a menu in which I can find a Model but not after having chosne the Constructor, so when I choose "Ferrari" then I can only find "Testarossa" and "GTO" and choose one of them. Stored field can be Model, because Constructor is implicit. But I need this tip because let's say I sell thousands of cars per day and I want it to be very quick. Please help or I'll die under piles of cars!
Thanks!!!!
Using Access 2000 is it possible to specify a starting location ie (c:) and using VBA search every sub folder from this point for files ending .mdb or .xls?
I want to be able to build a table with an record showing the file name and directory for each file found.
Any help most appreciated.

I have been building my DB and learning everything from scratch. If anybody could give me any advice as to where I may be going astray, it would be much appreciated as I feel like I've hit a brick wall. I run a building firm and need a DB to look after customer information, write estimates, invoices and ultimately do the accounts.
I think my DB needs are very basic to start with and I'm guessing the system only needs to be fairly simple and straightforward. So far my DB has:-
•Customer form with an in-built Estimate subform - this form gives me a brief outline of the customer and how many estimates I have for him.
•If you then double click on an estimate number (in the Estimate subform) this takes you to my Items form (when I create an estimate normally in Word, I have to break jobs down into their components and price each item individually, hence I made an Items table). Each item has an Item Cost.
•I then run the report “Estimate” and have set up a total calculation box on the report ready to print it out for the customer.
My problem is that I would like to know how I can get the Estimate Total to appear in my Estimates Table and Estimates Subform. So far I have achieved making a crosstab query to calculate the Estimate Total (Amount) for each specific Estimate ID, but I cannot get the Total from the Crosstab Query into the Estimate Table, from which I would probably be able to get it into the Estimate Subform. I have a suspicion I need to build an expression in the Estimate Subform - but.....
Once I am over this problem I will want to turn Estimates into Invoices and have that data displayed in my Estimate Subform too, although I think I have got a good idea of how to do this, I would again be open to comments/advice if offered.
Thanks Steve
