Option To Specify An Item That Is Not Listed
Jun 9, 2006
Hi everyone,
I'm building a database that will allow me to enter medical information about patients. On the present form (paper) one of the question asks about the medical history of the patient with 7 available options( Diabetes, Cardiac, HIV etc). The 7th option is 'OTHER' and the patient is supposed to specify what Other refers to.
How can I translate this to an Access form?
I am thinking of a list of the 7 options, but when option 7 is selected; the user should be prompted to enter a specific disease.
QUESTION?
How can this be achieved, and how should the table be designed to accept this entry?
All help appreciated
Thanks
Will

I have a form with a combobox whose list items are taken from a table of currencies (called tblCurrencies)
Row Source = SELECT [tblCurrencies].[Ccy] FROM tblCurrencies ORDER BY [Ccy];
Problem is, there may come a time when the currency they want to select is not yet part of the tblCurrencies table, and needs to be added. For simplicity, I'd like to have an additional option in the dropdown (perhaps at the bottom) to specify a new currency.So an additional list item (e.g. 'Add New...') which when selected could prompt a subform where the user could specify the new currency (and any other relevant details specific to that currency) which can be programmatically added to tblCurrencies.how do I get that extra option into the list items for the combobox?...

How do I get only one item in a combo box when using the Table/Query option (ie No Duplicates). I want only one of each field with no duplicates.

how I can have a shortcut option when right click on each item on the list box. So I got my answer with below code that opens another form "frmshortcut" with a listbox inside that shows list of options like "new task" , "edit item" . Now my problem is (like attached picture) the shortcut list (frmshortcut) will be open in another place when I right click the mouse, it is far from location of click. Also it shows some default in access when I right click in the listbox ("subform", "cut", "copy"), actually I do not like it shows these, just I like it shows shortcut list I have defined by the list box.
Private Sub ItemList_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single) Const RIGHTBUTTON = 2 If Button = RIGHTBUTTON Then DoCmd.OpenForm "frmshortcut"
' DoCmd.OpenForm "frmshortcut", acNormal, , , , acDialog
Forms!frmshortcut!txtparameter = Me.ItemList.Value
End If
End Sub

I have a form that simply lists the items:
DEPARTMENT_NBR and DEPARTMENT_NAME
In the table: DEPARTMENT_TBL
When I edit the field DEPARTMENT_NBR and it is in error (must be between 01 and 99) I want to put out a message in a MSGBOX and SetFocus back on the DEPARTMENT_NBR.
I coded the MSGBOX with vbokonly and then DEPARTMENT_NBR.SetFocus, but after the message displays and enter is hit for the ok the cursor jumps to the DEPARTMENT_NAME on the current line. Is there a way to get the SetFocus to work properly on repeating items like this? I can never seem to get them to perform the same as they do on non-repeating items.
Thanks for your help.
HERE'S THE EXACT CODE:
If IsNumeric(DEPARTMENT_NBR) = False Then
If DEPARTMENT_NBR <> "00" Then
MsgBox "DEPARTMENT NUMBER must between 01 and 99.", vbOKOnly
DEPARTMENT_NBR.SetFocus
GoTo DEPARTMENT_NBR_EXIT (exits the paragraph skipping other checks)
End If
End If
Also, is there a way to look at a specific item in a list like that? IE. I want to reference the 3rd row's DEPARTMENT_NBR. Thanks.

I have a query based on a table that has the fields as shown below. When I run the query, I will get a separate record for each group as shown below.
prb_no | seq_no |commitment_user_group_cd
602 |3 |ERC
602 |3 |MCE
602 |3 |SRG
602 |4 |MCE
602 |4 |SRG
602 |5 |SRG
602 |6 |MCE
I would like to use a query to show only the records where "SRG" is not listed and where there is another group. So in the example data above, I would like the only record to show in the query to be the last record because it's the only one where SRG is not listed along with another group.
The logic behind this is when a problem is initiated and a group assigned, we do some things and document the results. So I am only interested in the records where we have not documented our results too.
Does anyone know how I can do this with a query?
Thanks,
Jim
I want the query to only show the data where there is a user group

I have created a report but discovered that I need to add a couple more fields.
I created a query for the one field and the other field I added to the existing queries.
Neither field is listed in the "add existing fields" drop down list. The fields have been added to the corresponding forms and tables.
How can I add these two fields without creating a whole new report?

I have a folder that gets updated with a few new xml files every day. I need to import the data in these files into a table. The names of the files to import is in a field (FName) in a table (tblFiles).
The code that loads up the files is this:
Application.ImportXML DataSource:="C:ImportXML FILES" & FileName & ".xml", _
ImportOptions:=acAppendData
Up until now I specify the name of the file in an inputbox, so I have to enter a bunch of names to get it done.
I am looking for a way to get the filename from the table and then load up the file automatically.

What is the correct syntax that would delete a file when the record is deleted. The file's path is listed in a record field, MailLocation. Every time I try this code, I receive an error!
I've tried the below, and number of iterations, including calling the killfile differently (me![MailLocation], me.MailLocation).
Code:
Private Sub Form_AfterDelConfirm(Status As Integer)
Dim KillFile As String
KillFile = me!MailLocation
Kill KillFile
End Sub

I have no experience with Access Modules which I think I need to find all the queries that reference a field, in this example: LAWSON_LHSEMPDEMO.R_STATUS
I would like for the module to list all the queries for me that reference this table and field of "LAWSON_LHSEMPDEMO.R_STATUS"
Is there an easy way to do this?

I created a query, and in field one i have a list of SKU codes (of which many are repeats), and in field two I have their corresponding volumes. In Fields 3-5 I have some various algebraic calcuations.
Now, in order to get a sum of the volume with only one SKU code listed in column 1, I use a group by on the SKU code, and a sum for the volume. When these are the only fields in the query, this works great. But when I add in the other calculated fields, the run query returns to showing each SKU code multiple times, and shows the volume and the calculations correctly. When I change the other calculated fields to Sum, then I get the aforementioned overflow error and no output at all.
Is there a way to both set it so that the output is only showing one SKU code, the total volume for that SKU, and the weighted average output of the other calculations in one query?

I have a simple crosstab query:
FirstName and Surname as Row Headings.
Date as Column Heading.
OnShift as a Value (Count).
These are from the table DailyActivityLogs. Also in that table is a choice field called Weather that lets you choose the conditions that day (Weather, Work, Part Weather, Subbed).
This is the report the crosstab query generates:
What I would like to do is colour the Count fields depending on what the weather was that day. It seems possible, as Weather sits in the same table, but the field Weather isn't in the crosstab query.
Can I do this?

I am using an Access database for a foreign language dictionary project.
One of the forms I use is populated by a query (qryLemmaTable) to retrieve information from tblLEMMA.
This form works precisely as I intend it to work, but there is a glitch on it that is driving me mad.
The form in question has an option group with 11 radio buttons that correspond to the parts of speech associated with each word in tblLEMMA.
When I click on the button optAdjective I apply a filter and the only records that are displayed are adjectives. (The same applies for Nouns, Verbs, Prepositions etc.)
Here is the glitch: even though the radio buttons apply the filter correctly, no “black spot” appears in the button. Other signals on the screen let me know what word type is selected, so I can accomplish what I want, but I want the “black spots” too!
Perhaps this will be a clue: For each radio button I use the following code in the GotFocus event.
Me.FilterOn = False
Me.Filter = "wordtype = 'A'" ‘(or N, etc)
Me.FilterOn = True
And this for the Lost Focus event
Me.FilterOn = False
Thanks for the help.

Hi
I've got an Option Group with 3 options; Yes, No and Future.
I also have a range of Check Boxes; 1 for every day of the week.
When one of the check boxes is selected I want the Option Group to change to Yes.
Currently, the Option Group defaults to Future and No will only be available by manually selecting it. This doesn't need to be changed.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Cheers

I stumbled upon the Option Group function just yesterday and, happy as a clam, I created a group with 2 options in radio button style. I assigned the values to a field called Registration_Type as the 2 options are "Confirmed Registrants" and "Prospective Attendees".
[Great. That part works well. When I look at the table, a 1 or a 2 is in that field so it's great to know how to control accidental ticking of radio buttons (previous 450 records or so didn't have this option group functionality so one might easily tick one of the buttons. So one part of controlling option group I know I can handle via the table itself for now.]
The challenge is how to ensure the user always ticks one or the other ... I went back to the main table and tested the 'required entry' option for the Registration_Type field but forcing an action like this is not ideal in my mind. The usual error message vagueness for the average user is no good and I don't want to limit the user so much.
Is there a way to simply have a popup come up warning that neither radio button was ticked? Perhaps something linked to the form - i.e., maybe "after update"?? I only learned about attaching code to before and after update on controls a couple of days ago, so not sure if this would be best approach.
Just something to let the user know that nothing has been ticked in the option group as that controls in which of 2 reports the data will show up in so any record not ticked might mean a registrant being left out, which would be rather disastrous <g>.

Attached you will find an example with the problem.
The query is only searching identical data between both tables.
I want it to show results from all users, with all the devices each user has.
What am I doing wrong with the query?

Hey all.
I'm trying to get a combo box to populate the box next to it.
Basically pick a project number in the 1st box and have the project name show up in the second box.
I have it working, but the problem is that when it puts in the name of the project, it fills the whole column with that name, and not just the one box.
Here is what it's doing:
http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/2659/dbhm4.jpg
Here is the code im using.
Private Sub ProjectNumber_AfterUpdate()
On Error Resume Next
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSQL As String
ProjectNumber.SetFocus
If ProjectNumber.Value > 0 Then
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM ProjectList WHERE ID = " & ProjectNumber.Value
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
If Not rs.BOF Then
Me.ProjectName = rs("ProjectName")
End If
rs.Close
Set rs = Nothing
db.Close
Set db = Nothing
End If
End Sub
Let me know what I can do.
Thanks!!

Hi
I have a field that contains some kinds of the student status, such as "Current", "Alumni" and "Expire". The table has already got a lot of records. How can I make a new item available to the field, for example, "Other", without entering a new status?
Like, "Student A" is "Current" but he is now "Other" status. When the user see his record, he/she needs to change the student status from "Current" to "Other". I don't want the user to enter "Other" manually. I want it to be available from a comb box at the first place. How can I add a new item into a field without entering a new student record?
Sorry, I am unsure that I explain enough ..
Thank you.

OK heres the deal:
I have an asset inventory database that i've made where item numbers 1000-1999 is one category 2000-2999 is one category, 3000-3999 is one category etc.
I've made a drop down menu with the choices, 1000, 2000, 3000, etc.
What I want to be able to do is, I want the computer to generate the item number from that drop down menu's selected choice. For example if the category 1000 is chosen i want the computer to be able to generate the next possible item number (without duplicating any item numbers).
Is this possible?
Thanks much for any help :)
