I work in an environment with 7 computers networked to the same database. Until last week the database worked fine on all computers.
One computer was wiped clean and reinstalled with XP pro sp2 with all updates, office XP with all updates and also every other programs needed etc etc...
Now the database that every one uses will open up but will crash when the date filter is used in any form/report/query... This is the only computer this happens on and the error sometimes comes back with the following number 2147418113 but is intermittent. I dont think it is anything in the VB as it works totally on every other computer and worked fine on this one until reinstall of everything...
any thoughts anyone??...or has anyone ever heard of this??
I have a database that has a combo box for CITY entry... Of course each city would have a different zip code... I would like my ZIP CODE field to be suggested (or entered) automaticly according to which city is chosen in the city field...... Can someone help???
View 7 Replies View RelatedIn my current, new position, I have been asked to look into the possibility of finding out if there exists some good tests available to test how much skill someone has with Access.
Do you know of any existing tests or websites that do testing like that? If not, I may have to create one for us, but I didn't want to have to totally reinvent things if something good already exists.
Also, if something doesn't already exist, maybe we could get some people here to contribute to a thread with potential questions to ask.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to produce an application diagram.
Sort of a map of an app, what data it hold in laymans terms rathers than table and field definitions. What forms do what, and how the whole application fits together.
Thanks for any assistance you can offer.
Hello I would like to make a table Relationships diagram to enforce referential integrity.
I wanted to make this diagram in the Back End container but I realized if I want to delete a corrupt table I have to delete the relationships as well.
(My clients might need to delete an individual corrupt table and replace it with a previous copy. This will cause the relationship to be removed and I don't expect my clients to re-establish this relationship.)
My question is: What if I put the relationship diagram in the Front End container? Will this enforce all the integrity rules? I assume if I put the diagram on the front end ... the user can replace tables in the Back End and the relationships diagram will be unaffected on the FE.
Any input on this topic would be appreciated thank you.
Hi i'm building a database with access for a computer business which sells computer products. The database is going to be from the point of view of the business not the customer. I'm having some trouble with the Relationship diagram, so far i have done this http://img509.imageshack.us/my.php?i...atabasefa1.jpg
The aim of the database so for the customer to purchase product, and the business records this transaction. Its from the point of view of the business not the customer. The business uses a supplier for its products and has no physical stock on hand.
Is there an easy way to get an explanation of where each query within the Db gets it's data from?
I'd ideally like to get a hierachical model - be it as a diagram, text, or whatever - along the lines of
QueryABC gets data from QueryD and QueryE
QueryE gets data from Table1
QueryD gets data from QueryX
QueryX gets data from Table2
I've only just needed to look at the existing queries in this Db in any detail and I'm hoping there's some faster way to sort this out, rather than manually opening and listing each one.
Thanks for any ideas.
Hello forum,I am new to designing databases and am excited to learn everything I can. I have read about normalization and relational structures and just need some assurance that I’m on the right track. I’m not looking for someone to design this database for me but am looking for someone to help critique what I have so far which is some user requirements and a RSD. My RSD is attached below.What I am building is a database to track carpets that have been cleaned in rooms which are in buildings. Employees clean carpets in rooms in a building. Many employees can be assigned to a carpet cleaning project. Employee’s record which building they are in, what room's carpet they are cleaning, what day and time they started and ended cleaning, what materials and method of cleaning they used, and the reason for the cleaning. Depending on the reason, the customer is charged a certain rate per hour of carpet cleaning. I am hoping to be able to query from this database to be able to answer, when the last room was cleaned, how long did it take to clean a room, and how much did it cost to clean a room. Some questions I have are: What attributes should be included in the PROJECTDETAIL table and not in the PROJECT table? When should I create a table showing DETAILS of an entity? How do I know when I should have an associative table or correlation table? Am I on the right track in creating this database? Thanks for your help!

its called class scheduling. below is the physical model. i need to make the logical, i have been told that course and section share a many to many relation as well as section and faculty and also bwee/ faculty and course, thus the creation of the intersection tbl, the OFFERINGS TABLE. i have inserted the foreign keys (FK's) into that table (which are the primary keys for the 3 main tables). what i need to know is that:
1. do i need anymore FK's?
2. wen i make my logical diagram, do i show it like the way i have shown it in the word file? i made it as such that course and section have the PK of the 2 tables and are now FK which allow duplication ie 1 course can have many sections etcc pls helpppppppppppp

Using access 2010; anyway to create an er diagram from an existing database? I have inherited a fairly large database and need to make changes to some field properties and need to find out where these fields are located. I know I can go into tools and run the documenter but doesn't give me an easy format to look at.
View 5 Replies View Relatedwhat means a table to appear as an entity on the diagram? And how to identify the cardinality of a relationship and how to specify which is mandatory and which is optional.
View 5 Replies View RelatedAll I have taken over a database. It has dozens of queries. Is there a tool or code that I can use that would quickly diagram the querie like a flowchart telling me what queries are related and the steps and so on.

Hey people, hows it going? Quick question
I am creating an EPOS system for a bookstore and I have a many to many relationship between the transactions table (tbl_transactions) and the products table (tbl_products) using a link table (tbl_linktblproductstransac). The below diagram shows what i mean below:
http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/3246/relationnshipswd9.jpg
I made it many to many because 1 transaction can have many products on it and 1 product can be on many transactions.
Now what I need to know is how will i make records with more than one product on one transaction (in the table itself or in a transaction form). I would really appreciate if someone could help. Thanks :) and have a good Easter
Hello : )
I am currently taking a database design class using Access 2003 and am looking for some help. I am trying to draw a dependency diagram before I create the tables based on the following attributes / fields in one table named Student:
StudentNumber, StudentName, StudentMajor, student's AdvisorNumber, AdvisorName, AdvisorOfficeNumber, AdvisorPhone, student's NumberCredits and student's Class (freshman, sophomore, etc.)
So far I have identified the Primary Keys as StudentNumber and AdvisorNumber and this is what I have:
Table #1 - Student = Student Number functionally determines Student Name, StudentMajor (?) NumberCredits and Class
Table #2 - Advisor = Advisor number functionally determines Advisor name, office number and phone
The problem I run into is with the the StudentMajor / Advisor / StudentNumber relationship. Since one student can have many majors and therefore many advisors since there is only one advisor per major, and each advisor has many students I am assuming it is a many-to-many relationship.
The problem I am having is determining the third table (and fourth if there will be one) and the relationship between StudentMajor / Advisor / StudentNumber.
Should StudentMajor be included as functionally dependent on StudentNumber? If it is there would be redundancy due to multiple entries in that field for each row so I guess I can't include it actually. :confused:
Wouldn't there have to be another attribute named AdvisorDept for this to work properly....that way there is a relationship between Advisor and their department they work in so I can link the student's major to the advisor :confused:
Any pointers and suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
I have upsized from Access 2003 to SQL Server 2008 R2 using upsizing wizard. Everything works fine. But I don't see relationship in SQL SErver 2008 R2 if I go to database. But I set relationship in Access 2003 before upsizing it.
Amso I don't see relationship (diagram) in Access 2003 , which I was able to see before.
So do I need to again recreate the relationship amongst the table in Access 2003 Or SQL SErver 2008 R2 ? I thought, if you link tables, everything should be taken care but i don't see relationship structure any more.
Hi-
I am a self taught beginner in Access applications, so excuse my lack of expertise and terminology. From reading through this forum, I realize how far I have to go. I am not a techy by any means.
My question: I have a database that keeps track of the delinquent taxes for our Town. One of the reports is set up from 2 queries, then 2 related tables (beginning balances and payments made). The query calculates the balance of each account based on the beginning balance minus the payments made, and returns a report which shows each account balance, and then another query returns a report showing the total balance of all the accounts due for the date the report is generated.
I am wondering if there is a way to generate the balances due on a previous date. For example today is July 13, and I want to know what the balances were on July 1. Both tables have a date field- beginning balance has a start date, and the payments table has the dates of any payments.
Thanks in advance for any advice
What is the condition or how should I write a VB code to block the command go to last empty record? I have a form which has three buttons : Go to Previous Record, Go to Next Record and Add New Record. If I add a new record, and I press "Go to Next Record" well, it goes to the next empty record this means it does the same job as the "Go to Add New Record" button. How can I stop this happen?
Thanks,

I hope someone can help me. I have a report that prints out with the customers social security number on it. I need to change it so that only the last four digits of the SSN show, so it would like something like this XXX-XX-1234. I still want it to keep the full SSN in my Table though so we can search for the customers info with the SSN.
Is there a way that I can change it on the report only and not mess up any other forms that I have it on? Any help would be awesome!
I have a form for all my clients, and currently there's a separate field for each part of the address. This does not make it easy to cut and paste an entire address block. I therefore created an unbound text box with the control source as:
=[FMT-NAME] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [Pref1] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [Pref2] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [PrefStrt] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [PrefCity] & ", " & [PrefState] & " " & [PrefZip]
This works ok, but if someone doesn't have anything in the fields [Pref1] or [Pref2] it leaves blank lines. Is there a way to code it so that I can have a complete address block? Thank you.
I have a form displayed as data sheet, how can I block the column so that the final user will not modify the width of the columns?
