Populate A Form From Existing Data

Sep 13, 2006

Hi
I cant get my head around this one,

I have a Form that enters all details for an Order.

On that form is a Tick Box that says Repeatable.

If that box is ticked in the future I am able to repeat on that stock item.

I have created a form with a List boxea that Lists all Suppliers Stock that is Repeatable

I want to be able to double click a Stock Item from that list, then let it populate another Order ( Unique Key ), fill in all the field from the previous order, so all I have to do is enter the Quantity I want to re-order.

How do I do this?

please help

Add New Field To Existing Table And Populate New Field With Existing Data

Apr 23, 2014

-Microsoft Access 2010

-Existing Access Database contains tables with 1-2 million records

I would like to add a field[dol] to an existing table[rei]. I need this new field[rei].[dol] to be populated with existing data from another table[main] based on the associated field[main].[account1] or [main].[account2] or [main].[account3].

Table1[main]
...account1
...account2
...account3
...dol

[code]...

In the [main] table. There is always data in [dol]. But there is NOT always data in the [account] fields. Sometimes there is multiple account numbers per [dol] but not always.

Customers will ALWAYS have at least 1 [account] number and [dol]. Some will have multiple [account] numbers and [dol]. Sometimes these [account] numbers are the same in multiple fields[account1] [account2] [account3].I just need to do a lookup or something to find the [account#] and pull in its [dol] from the [main] table and populate it in [rei].[dol].

Forms :: Display Existing Data On Data Entry Form

Sep 28, 2014

My db has multiple linked tables. As time passes and work on a project continues data needs to be added to a separate table that is linked to the first table to be populated.

i.e., Initial design data is entered first, when drilling is complete more data is added to a linked table, when drilling is surveyed yet more data is added to the second table.

What I want to be able to do is to query for a particular set of existing design data, display this on a form and on the same line enable data entry to other fields from other tables which are linked to the existing design data.

Aug 28, 2012

I have a database where I need to append part of a new record to another table. But when I open the query with the link to the form that is open I cannot see the added record until it's saved to the open form. I tried to re-query the key ID field but that does not work. How do I do a re-query without the form requiring everything and then I am on the incorrect record?

Forms :: Existing Data In Field Of Subform Also Filtered By Combo Box On Main Form

Mar 7, 2014

I have a form with subform (datasheet) .

On my subform i have one field which shows the

productId ( which is filtered from combo boxes on main form) .
productId contains two columns
1 bound column(id) ( hidden with width 0 )
2 column (desription) ( shown with width 2 )

Now after entering the data when i come back to the form again . It hides the data from the productId field on subform , because data in combo box (on main form) doesn't match. Although the row is showing up , only the text in field (productId) is hidden.

Now when i change data in combo box on main form to match the ProductId , then the productId field text shows again. after changing combo box it hides . What i need is the existing data should not hide when i change the combo box selection.

see pic 1 where product matches and pic 2 where not. please note i am using master child relationship on the form/subform.

Populate Form With Data From Excel Spreadsheet

May 3, 2005

Hello.

I currently have a data-entry form that users fill-out with data (duh!). The data comes an excel spreadsheet that is created during the work-flow process.

I would like to add an "Import" button the field that, when clicked, would prompt the user to select a spreadsheet (different each time) and once that was selected import data into the form (and ultimately the table). The data will always be in the same location (cells and sheet) within every speadsheet.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Pull Data From Main Form To Auto Populate Other Forms?

Jun 15, 2006

I need to pull data from a master project list to auto update other forms. When someone enters a project number I need it to pull the data for that project into another form so they dont need to keep typing details in. The other forms are trackers for our processes to complete the projects.

Let me know what you think...would a subform pull the info automatically somehow?

Forms :: How To Auto-populate Section On Form That Corresponds To Previous Data

May 30, 2013

Ok, this is what I have, I have a database that has 3 tables, a year table, that all my forms get inputted into, a table that has manufacturer addresses on it and a table that has sampling locations.

On my form, I have it where there is a drop down box, so you can just select the name of the manufacturer and select the name of the sampling location. But what I want it to do is, that you select the name from the drop down box and then in another box or two it auto populates the corresponding street address, and city for both the manufacturer and the sampling location.

Creating A Search Button That Will Retrieve Data From Table And Populate Form

Jan 24, 2015

I've been able to navigate a lot on my own, but there is one issue I cannot seem to resolve. I have 1 form and 1 table. I have the form set up so that you can enter data, and then press a button, and it will "save" and refresh the form for a new entry. However, I want to be able to pull that entry back up in the form, and fill out additional fields later on.The form is set to data entry = yes because I do want the form to open up as brand new each time.

To sum up my question. I want a text box and search button at the top of my form. When you type an ID number in the text box, and then press search, I want access to populate my form with the information in my data table associated with that ID number.

If I type in the number 1234 and hit search. I want my form to autopopulate with the data in the row for ID number 1234 (all the fields I have already populated). So by searching 1234, the name, phone, background info, etc that is populated in the row will appear.

HELP!! Trying To Nomalize Existing Data By Updating Data Into New Fields

Dec 19, 2006

Hello Tech gurus,

I have a database with existing data, that is not normalized, :eek: and all the data is in one field... This what I am dealing with:

As you notice the first row of data in field1 C10A CHOLEST&TRIGLY has 3 spaces to the right the next row ALTORVASTIN has five spaces to the right, the next line LIPITOR has 7 spaces to the right, and so forth, hopefully you get at what I am trying to do, I just looked at the data and it is not showing up in view of the leading spaces, but I am trying to move the data based ONLY on the position of leading spaces, example all data that has 3 leading spaces would go into its own separate column, and all data that has 7 leading spaces would go into a separate column, I have tried to use the left, mid, len functions but I cannot figure out how to move the text and keep it whole only by data position of spaces.

Field1:
C10A CHOLEST&TRIGLY
ATORVASTATIN
LIPITOR
PFIZER
SIMVASTATIN
SIMVASTATIN TEVA
TEVA
M1A ANTIRHEUMATIC N-STEROID
ETODOLAC
ETOPAN
TARO PHARMA
Thanks so much for your help... :confused:

How To Add Data To A Column Of Existing Data

Aug 1, 2014

I need to categorize 35,000 cells of data in a column into 3 different groups (A,B, and C). Each cell will have something like "G00001" or "G00525" in it, but depending on when it was added, I want to change it to "G00001A" or "G00525C". I created a select query to show only the G0000's column and the column that indicates AB or C, but i don't know how to add the letters at the end of my G0000's. Do I need to use an update query or can I do something more simple? Also, if I need to use an update query, how would I build it to do what I need to get done?

Creating Fields From Existing Data

Aug 10, 2006

I am not sure that I am in the Correct Section for this question but I am sure I can be forgiven for that :

I am attempting to build a db for a friend who has all his data in one table. During normalisation I have seperated the various threads of data into various tables of usable information. My problem is that I need to seperate his clients fullname into First & Surname i.e. Fullname: Mick Burke to FirstName: Mick and Surname: Burke - in other words make two fields from one.

Any help in doing this would be well appreciated.

Format Existing Columns Of Data

Sep 18, 2007

I have an old table that has many, many records. One of the columns lists the Date of Birth. Here's my problem:

Users have entered data into this column as "71462" This representing July 14, 1962. Is there a way to automatically format all data in this column so that it is more palatable - e.g. 07/14/1962?

Changing the column Data Type to "Short Date" in Design View would delete all existing data in that column, so this is not an option.

Thanks for your help.

Adding New Data To Existing Table

Mar 27, 2007

Please bear with me, first post, trying to get to grips with Access for work!

We (a primary school) had a "bespoke" database set up using MS Access by someone who has long left the area and now we need to make changes and I, as the most computer literate person on site, have been volunteered to make these changes.

My level is beginner (for now) and my first job is to add some new options to a "Titles" table, four columns, six records. Column1 = ID#, Column2 = Male Titles, Column3 = Female Titles, whilst Column4 seems to hold items from Columns 2 & 3.

If I add a futher option, I get the error "Can't perform cascading operation: Entry must be one of the Titles as featured in the drop-down box or in the Titles table.

Now, as far as I can tell, I HAVE added the new option to the Titles table, and they DO show in the drop down box in the main spreadsheet display, BUT the error comes back as soon as I try to confirm the new title.

Any ideas please?

I have the following statement which exports data based on a query to a .xls:

DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "qryreportsbydate", "C:Documents and SettingspdaintyDesktopRawQualityData_Weekly.xls"


This works fine it exports the data and names the sheet rawqualitydata.

The problem i'm having is when i come to run the export again Excel tells me the file already exists. What I want it to do is overwrite the data in the rawqualitydata sheet in the same file.

Is this possible?
