I have a table that is a list of all of my events. Each record of events should have a child table that list all of the things that happened at the event. When a new record (event) is added how can I have a new child table created and linked to that record. Also I have a blank table to serve as a template for what each child should look like. How do I make sure this occurs? The child tables can have the same name as the index. I am just using numbers 1- for the index with 1 being the first event and so on?
Hi all- I work for a staffing firm and I'm trying to figure out a way to turn exports from our vendor-based sql gui (i.e. I can only get .xls files out of it, can't just run SQL queries) into spiffy reports using Crystal Reports. My grand plan is to use Access to process these various XLS files (one for each client) by linking them to an Access DB and coding a table to conditionally tally individual records based on different criteria.
The criteria are company name, position name, date submitted, active, and status. I was able to code an Excel template that did the trick perfectly, but required each file to be edited to reflect the new report format, and updated as more positions are added. My question is this: is there some way for me to create a DB that links to the XLS files for each client and puts each company name, position name, date submitted (pulled straight from XLS files) and then the following tallies:
submitted (just # of pos name by date) accepted (status != "s" AND active = "y" by date) etc.
I don't really expect someone to do all my coding for me, maybe just point me in the right direction, as the only coding outside of excel formula coding (which I feel doesn't really count despite my proficiency) that I've done has been over a decade ago. Any suggestions?

I Have a form that shows bills in a continuous form. My problem is that I want to put a textbox or a label that will display a kind of counter for each bills. For example, If I have 3 bills to display, I want my label or textbox to display 1 for the first bill, 2 for the second, 3 for the third, and so on.
But I don't know how to do that with a continuous form.
I am attempting to create a report that the user can specifiy a contact type which is selected from a drop down list and the report will only show those records. The name of the report is "Contact Listing bu User Supplied Contact Type." I also have a form called "Report Contact Selection." Right now I am getting only contact type of "recruiters" to appear when I run the report even when I select a different contact type. As you will see when you look at the "contacts" table, I do have records with different contact types. I am including a *.zipped version of this database and if you should need any additional information, please feel free to ask. Thank you.
I created a new table for my database that contains three fields. A first name, last name, and a full name field. Is there a way in the definition of the table that I can define the full name to =[TrackComposerFirstName] & " " & [TrackComposerLastName]? I'm not sure where I would define a formula in data elements of a table.
i want to have a feature in my database like the following..
these are basically day to day clock in times for my staff..
is there a way that everday.. a new record will be created..
eg.. on 04/06/06... i turn on my pc for the first time.. and when i view the timesheet form.. a record for today is automatically created.. then throughout the rest of the day, this form will be displayed..
when i turn on my pc on 05/06/06, the database will know its a different day, so it creates a new record for today... then i can just move back and forth throughout the days to see the details..
if i then turn my computer off for 5 days, then turn it on at 10/06/06, it still should have made records for 6,7,8, and 9th June, but they will be empty, and the record im shown is for the 10/06/06,
I have created a table containing jobs that need to be done from my team (IT production). Each time someone start or finishes a job, he must fill a box that updates a specific row in the table. I want to log the time of that action.
Any ideas of how I could set this up in Access? I have tried the Now() function in the Default Value of the field End Time, but this is updated everytime I refresh the table
In a field “NAME” I have “Adam Smith”. From this field I want in a QBE window (not in VB) to make two new fields “FIRST NAME” “Adam” and “LAST NAME” “Smith”. In Excel there are the functions FIND and SEARCH with which I take the number of the gap “ ” (5) between Adam and Smith and with the functions LEN, RIGHTS and LEFTS I have a result. What could I do in Access 2003?
I been tasked with a project to be written in access which I am rather unfamiliar with, web design is more my area.
For part of the project I need to copy some pricing fields from a pricing table to a new record at the point that the new record is created. The new record is created when a 'new form' button is clicked.
What I would like to know is what and where I should trigger the copy query from and what function should I be using?
I have a continous form bound to a query which also has a group by function. Is it possible to create an editable bounded textbox because Access is giving a message saying recordset not updatable.
I been browsing and I seen a few statement regarding a timestamp that displays when you create a new record so each new record would have the time it was created. What function is this?
I have a subform with a lot of fields in which require input. I have set the tab order correctly so they go through in sequence. However, I have found when I tab out of the last field. Its creates a new record which I dont want.I want it to either return to the first field to just stop.
I need some advice for an ASP.NET web application I am working on. I am trying to automate the making of a new table within a database and then have all records from an old table migrated to the newly made table. I would like this task to run from the scheduled tasks on the server in the way of an .exe
The new table would be created on the first day of every month, taking the name of that month. I was thinking to use an empty template table which already has all the fields, and then making a copy and renaming it to the current month.
After the new table has been created I need to copy all the records from the table that represents the previous month over to the new table that represents the current month.
why is it that as soon as you fix one problem another one needs dealing with :mad:
OK, the problem i have is that i have a BE/FE configuration database in a multiuser environment. I have built all the tables and the relationships in the BE configuration. In the FE configurations i have built the main forms to input data. It has no come to the point where i have begun to create the queries to allow reporting and data searching. And this is where i have a problem. I am trying to create a simply query and i do mean simple (at the moment i simply want 2 fields from 1 table and 2 fields from another table) no calculations or anything i just want it to display the data. I have tried creating this query numerous times and i keep getting the same error.
"The wizard is unable to open your query in datasheet view, possibly because another user has a source table open in exclusive mode. Your query will be opened in design view"
the above is the error i get when i use a wizard to create the query, after getting this message and going into design view i try to view the results in datasheet view and get the following error "Type Mismatch in expression"
If i dont use a wizard and create it in design view, when i go to view the results i get the second error message everytime.
If i create a query from 1 table only the query works without errors, but i always get errors when i have more than one table in the query.
Also i am the only person with the database open so therefore it is total impossible for the database to be open by another user in exclusive mode.
Anyone know what the problem might be or how to fix. Your answers will be very much appreciated.

Is it possible (and logical) for me to create a table with a calculated field from 2 other fields in the same table? Example; I have a long time field (mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss) aka StartTime, and a long time field EndTime. I would like to subtract the StartTime field from the EndTime field to get the total time elapsed, but in hh:mm:ss format. I can get it in hh:mm format, but I really need the hh:mm:ss format. Any Ideas? :cool:
I currently have a database where users input new parts into a database using a part form. When they put in the part type, a tracking number is automatically generated. I would like a folder to be created for each part where we can store pictures and a report. How would i have it create a report to a certain area using the tracking number as the folder name? I also want to be able to upload pictures and eventually save the report in there but creating the folder is the first step.
I have a form which produces an SQL query based on a main table and a number of lookup tables. This query is displayed on the screen and then can be executed or produced as a report. If it is produced as a report the user mentions on another input screen the columns of the main table to be printed and the sort orders. A couple of other parameters needed for the report such as its title, date, font family and font size are also given. Then the report should be automatically generated. For this purpose I am using CreateReport and CreateReportControls methods. But the parameters of these two methods are not very clear. I need a report header, a page header and details of the records one on each row. Do I have to use the Create ReportControls method three times? First one only once, Second one on each page, third one on every line? Any example of such a report or point at an example?
I have an issue with designing a query.i have three tables (there is more but these should do for this)
