View 1 Replies View RelatedHi all,
A nice easy one for you. I am creating a database, one of the fields is total cost. Is there an easy way to have another field, which calculates the VAT without using a query? I would like this done as soon as the total is entered.
I have done this using a query, but didnt like this way.
I am sure there must be a very simple way of doing this but it has escaped me.

I have a form that I am inputting data into. I have been able to Clear the form. I have created an edit script and it brings the data from the table to populate the form. When I try to change the data in the form and run a VBA update to push the data down to the table I am having no luck. I can add/Delete recordswith no problems but I can't edit them and put them back in the table. I am novice and just learning the formats and scripting.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have just tried experimenting with placing a Chart control within a form (Access 2010). Although the chart ultimately seems to work (based on my one simple example), I'm getting an Error 1907 (Could not register font.......) each time I launch the database or reload or edit the form.
This error message is itself contained within a "Configuration Progress" screen for MS Office Prof + 2010 which seems to complete if I select Ignore the error message but runs again each time the database is launched (with the same error message showing up part way through). I am logged on as Administrator.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I've performed a search using a SQL statement which is based upon the results of two combo boxs.
Combo66.RowSource = "SELECT Product_Id FROM Product WHERE (Name_Suffix='" & Combo60.Value & "') AND (Name_Family='" & Combo56.Value & "');"
There will only ever be one result, I can display this result in a combo box without problems but I would like to display it in a text box. Is this possible?
I'm very much a newbie to Access so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I have a database with a couple of search forms to use for my company. My boss wants me to place this on the intranet so anyone can use it not only those with MS Access, which many people do not have on their computers. Please let me know if there is a way to do this and still make it interactive by means of searching. Thanks

I am trying to write a query that selects multiple rows of a table and puts those into a single string with a comma delimiter.
I want it to select all rows after a specific word is found in the row above and then stop selecting when another specific word below the last row is found.
Example below: >>>
The data i am using is very unorganised and has not headers, so I have to try and specific lines in order to allocate them to a specific user.
Sample Data:

The delimiter can be anything.
I created a Access 2010 database query to allow a user to search a list of orders between 2 dates, and I created a form for them to use for this search.
Then I created a report for the search results to land on. What I want to do is have the 2 dates that the user provided be displayed in the header of the report.
I created a new Text Box and placed it in the header. In place of the "Unbound" filler that was there, I placed
"=[Forms]![frm_DateRange]![txtStart]".
I used the following steps to do this:
Clicked on the Text Box controlPressed the "Property Sheet" buttonSelected the "Data" TabPressed the "..." button next to the "Control Source EntryThe "Expression Builder" came upDouble-clicked on the database name in the "Expression Elements" windowDouble-clicked on "Forms", then double-clicked on "All Forms"Selected the rpt_DateRange" formSelected "txtStart" from the "Expression Categories" window.I did not select anything in the "Expression Values" window.
When I go to "Report View", and see the Text Box I added, but inside it, it just says "#Name?"
The company I work for has branches in multiple states and we use Access to organize all their tax requirements. We print out reports for every month, and my company would like to create a pop-up window that will let us filter the report when it starts up so that it automatically shows only the dates that we wish it to. How do I create a filter that pops-up when the report starts?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI created a form in Access that retrieves data from a table. Inside the form, I am able to access/populate data fields with data from the table. I also have data fields, inside the form, that requires key-in data. I have some how lost the ability send all data field information to a second table and clear existing data fields for new entry.
Questions: What settings, code or buttons can I use to send/store data field information to a new table? What settings, code or buttons can I use to automatically clear all data fields from my form once data has been sent to the new table?
I have a totalquery that runs fine and give me the sum for both fields I'm looking for but I can't get the outputs to fill the fields on the form. I have tried the Dcount query in the control source but that just returns an error and locks up access.
Code:
SELECT [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, Sum([Tble-wcDelays].HoursDelay) AS SumOfHoursDelay
FROM [Tble-wcDelays]
GROUP BY [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, [Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID
HAVING ((([Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID)=[Forms]![Frm-ePlusCent]![cleanID]));
That is the query.
Hey Everyone,
I am stuck trying to figure out this problem. I have a main form "frm_tirelog_600" which has 4 combo boxes "cboleg",
"cbocar", "cbopos", "cboserial" on it. The first 3 combo boxes are used as criteria on 1 of 3 subforms that I have.
The fourth combo box "cboserial" is used for the criteria in a query on another subform that I have called "frm_mount_600_subform",
which is independant from the main form, I hope I have explained that clearly enough. What I need to be able to do is
have the subform fill in 3 of the fields on it "leg", "car", "pos" with the value from the 3 combo boxes on my main form. I
can get it to show in the fields but not write to the table. I have searched the forum and have not been able to locate anything
that would work and really need any assistance with this. Im not real strong in the coding department which is where I
beleive this could be done.
I have attached a copy of my DB which I hope will better explain it. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I am very new at Microsoft Access. I have two forms, A and B, that are filled out by two different users. Form A gets filled out first than form B gets filled out. Each has a name box as well as a birthdate box and a few other similar text fields. However, each form also has a few distinctive fields. I was wondering how I could input the common information in Form A to Form B so the user of Form B does not have to spend time retyping the name and birthdates again. In other words, I want to synchronize the similar records between the two forms. I would like the values to appear in a table as well. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me with the visual basic code. Thank You.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to create a command button on my form that copies values from 5 fields in the current record into a new record leaving all the other fields blank except for the new record ID.
The fields that contain the data that I want copied into a new form are:
1. Member_Name
2. Member_ID
3. Account
4. UBH/PBH
5. Assigned_WRCA
I currently have two forms: frmE_SAFind and frmE_SAOrder
frmE_SAFind shows results from a query including fields [txtIDPO] and [dtmDate]
Example:
IDPO Date
btnOpnFrm 6543 2/1/05
btnOpnFrm 5681 1/1/05
frmE_SAOrder shows order details including [txtIDPO] and [dtmDate]
I have a open form command button set up on [frmE_SAFind] that opens [frmE_SAOrder]. Is it possible for me to modify its properties so that when the open form command button is clicked, the order details in [frmE_SAOrder] will represent the order that the user is selecting via the btnOpnFrm command?
Example: If I click btnOpnFrm for 6543, [frmE_SAOrder] will show me PO 6543 details.
Hopefully I made myself clear enough to understand. Thanks for your help!
Hi there,
Can someone help me on this issue?
I want to copy Postal Address Information to Visit Address Information wthin the same record, in my Contact Database that I am building at the moment.
I want to copy 4 fields to 4 other fields within the same Record.
This the current code I use for the Copy-button:
---
Private Sub cmdCopyFields_Click()
Dim v1 As Variant
Dim v2 As Variant
Dim v3 As Variant
Dim v4 As Variant
v1 = Me!Field_a.Value
v2 = Me!Field_b.Value
v3 = Me!Field_c.Value
v4 = Me!Field_d.Value
RunCommand acCmdRecordsGoToNew
Me!Field_e = v1
Me!Field_f = v2
Me!Field_g = v3
Me!Field_h = v4
End Sub
---
The underlined part (acCmdRecordsGoToNew) is false part of this code, because it copies the Adress Info to a new record, instead of copying it in the same.
-Is there someone that can help me with this problem, to make the copy-button in the Form run properly?
-Are there other options to achieve te same?
I have put in a attachment, to give you guys a visual example of what I mean.
Thanks in advance,

I have the form (PROJECT DETAILS) that displays a specific record's information, one record at a time.I would like to click a button to export 5 specific fields (name, phone, address) of that form ("Project Details"), based on the PK "AssignNr", and then insert those fields in an already created Excel form that has those fields blank, but other fields filled in.
And then, as part of the same macro, I want to have the Print pop-up come up in the Excel form to select where/how that file will get printed.I've tried exporting from the Project Details form, but it exports all the records. And then I am not sure how / where to code the vlookup formula (if that's even necessary) to take the data from the exported file, into the existing Excel form that needs to be filled in.
Can this even be done in one macro, or do I need to create two - one to export data from Access to Excel. And then another in Excel to vlookup the details from the exported file, into the existing Excel file.
It would be nice if I didn't have to put in what the vlookup criteria is. (i.e. AssignNr (which is the PK)) - if it could just be taken from the PROJECT DETAILS form's current record selection.
I have one main form with 3 tabulated sub forms.
My main form consists of two fields.
When the user clicks tab 2 (subform 2) or tab 3 (subform 3) the main fields should hide
I tried to achieve this by using the on click event at the tabbed forms. I referenced the two main fields and used the visible property followed by a form requery. It didn't work.
thanks in advance
I'm trying to sum up the hours of a sub-form on the main form. I've followed the instructions in Access Help so far. I've created a text box in the footer of the sub form with the following control source:
=Sum([Mon])
which should sum up all the hours in HoursMon fileds.
Then I've created a text box on the main form with the following code in the Control Source
=[frmTshtProj Subform]!SumMon
But it doesn't work. I get a #Name? appear in the box instead of a total. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

If the combo field shows Wedding, then the addiditional field needs to show £200.00
If the combo field shows Funeral, then the addiditional field needs to show £100.00

Hi All,
I am really new to all of this and used to use excel for this stuff.... yes I know... I can hear the screems already .......... :):eek::rolleyes:
What I am trying to do is lock some fields in a form when they are entered so the data can not be changed after they move onto the next record. I think this might be done in the table but can not be sure.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? or some pointers please. Any help would be good.
Many thanks
Hi,
I have a form that has a field called scope of work which is a combo box that you have 3 options to select from.
I have set up a table called scope of work which has other fields
ie: Scope of work, Est Man Hours, Normal Rate, Overtime Rate and Est Due Date.
The combo box works fine selecting the scope of work but I want the fields on the form to automatically fill in the other information. Say they select option 1 in the scope of work based on this option it will fill in 40hrs at $150 per hour normal rate and $180 per hour overtime rate and this will take 4 weeks to complete. Based on the start date field it will also calculate 4 weeks from now for the completion date.
I have tried everything from queries using SQL statements, joining tables one to many etc.. and for some reason I cannot seem to get it to work for me and I've spent hours searching around for a solution..
If anyone has any ideas it would be greatly greatly greatly appreciated!!
Thanks a Bunch
I am sure this has been asked a thousand times, but I couldn't seem to find a thread.
I have a form, which contains a subform. When in the subform, I have a button to create a new main form and I want it to prefill in the data from some fields on the subform.
It looks like it should work, but #1, when I am in the main form inside the subform, the botton does nothing. If I open only the subform, then it at least works.
And #2, it definitely captures the values that I want, but it doesn't fill them in on the form.
Here is my code:
Private Sub Command44_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command44_Click
Dim doc As String
Static tit As String
Static desc As String
doc = "Business Requirement Document"
title = IssueType
desc = Issue
DoCmd.OpenForm doc, acNormal, , , acFormAdd
BRD_Title = title
BRD_Description = desc
Exit_Command44_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Command44_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Command44_Click
End Sub
Any help would be MUCH appreciated!!
