I have several lookup fields in a table that reference data in other tables, each with two fields (unique nummber & text data). The combo boxes in the data entry form work fine, but when I produce reports, the unique number shows up in the output, not the text data from the second field. What can I do to force the data that I need to see in my reports?
View RepliesSo I have a text box in a report that I want to pull in data from a field in another report, so the 'control' for my text box looks something like this...
=[Reports]![rptSalesReceiptSub]![Text141] (i.e Text141 is the data I want to pull into my report)
...the path is completely correct but when I run my report I get.#Name? If I run the report that has the data I want, it's fine (in other words Text141 has valid data in it)
I need to pull data from multiple tables in order to show a "financial summary"..Currently I have: Company; BalanceSheet; Debt; Liabilities; Income..All tables have a lot of information (which is why I built them in multiple tables).
I need to build a form where I can use a combo box to select a company from a list.Once selected - I need to the form to pull selected information from each of the above tables. (As well as perform some math functions).I've been struggling with the relationships (They don't seem to make a difference) and I believe I am above and beyond what the wizards will accomplish.
I have read thread after thread but cannot seem to find a specific answer on how to accomplish this.To make matters more complex - Once finished I want to be able to select multiple companies and create a report from the fields mentioned above (IE: pick company A, B, and C and have all of there "current Assets" add up on one report)
This task was originally achieved using an Excel spreadsheet but it has become to confusing for users and difficult to save information for future use.I believe all of my fields are constructed correctly. how to compile the data from multiple tables into one form/report.
I have a form and a subform. I want to pull the data (current record) from a field (Unit) from the main form and use it in a report query, which is connected to my subform.
I thought I could create a variable (strVarUnit) then call the variable in query but I'm doing something wrong.
On the main form in the open event I created the variable ...
Dim StrVarUnit as String
On the form after updating the Unit field I placed an event ...
StrUnit = Me.Unit
I then placed Call StrVarUnit() in the query.
This doesn't work (variable undefined).
I need filling in field information. I have all records of people in one table, and for all persons i have Fields A B C and D. For PersonA I want to have FieldA and FieldB be tailored to that person, but FieldD to be pulled from PersonB's FieldB when PersonB's FieldA Value is typed into PersonA's FieldC.
If it makes it easier, I want A Record to show
A:PersonA's FieldA,
B:PersonA's FieldB,
C:PersonB's FieldA,
D:PersonB's FieldB
when PersonB's FieldA is manually entered into PersonA's FieldC.
I'm a bit new to Access but have managed to build a very simple database.
I have a main table which I need to add 4 columns onto the end of, the data for which comes from 4 tables linked to it. Below is how they are linked.
Main table------> Table 1
Main table------> Table 2
Main table------> Table 3
Main table------> Table 4
All 4 relationships have a join type of 2 (Include ALL records from 'Main table' and only those records from 'Table1/2/3/4' where the joined fields are equal)
However, 3 of them pull back the correct data when I refresh the Main table, but the 4th one doesn't - which appears to be to be set up in the exact same way. It does bring back data, but it's the wrong data or in the wrong order.
For example, if the related field in the Main table is "Sarah" - It needs to bring back "Programme", but some Sarah's pull through Programme, some are blank and some are another option altogether. Table 4 has no duplicates or typos etc and I've tried deleting it, loading it in again and creating a new relationship but nothing seems to work.
I have a form and a subform created. From these two, I have created a report that populates with the information. However, I cannot remember the code, nor where to put it in order for the report to only pull whatever record is current in the form. Currently, the report will create a page for each record stored in the table.

There is a name table and data table. My goal is that when I run a parameter query if someone does not have data for that time period to have that name pulled in so that eventually a report could be generated stating there is no data for this person for the time period.
I trying to build a usage tracker. Users will take a reading once a week and enter data. I want to open the form and have 2 fields filled in based off the last reading entered into the table.

Ok, so I am creating an Access Database to track the progress of our collections staff. I need to pull data from a remote SQL database and filter it so that the appropriate records are appended to the appropriate tables in teh Access DB. Any ideas?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
Here is my problem. I am trying to use a form to enter data that is contained on one table, have it pull data from another table that is related to the original data, then add data and dump the whole thing off to another table. I would like to do this one item at a time. The only way I can get this to work is to pull all the data at once into the form. Is there any way I can pull just the related data I need by just entering the item number?
Thanks,
D
I have 2 Tables and 1 form.
Table 1 has:
Product ID #, Product Name , Catalog Number
Table 2 has:
Date, Product Name, Catalog Number
with the Form, You select a Product Name (From table 1) and you can enter a date, which is entered into the Date column in Table 2. The form will also transfer the Product Name to Table 2.
Now, the problem is I can't seem to get the Catalog Number from the Form to enter into Table 2 automatically. It enters the Product Name just fine. I can, in Table 2, click the field and select the Catalog Number from a list, but that's not what I'm trying to accomplish. When a Date is entered into the Form, I'd like it to update Table 2 with the Date, Product Name AND the Catalog Number.. automatically.
is this possible? and if so, how?
I sorry I'm really new to Access, so my terminology is all out of wack. I hope the question is somewhat clear.
I have a query and search form with this critera in each field for: Employee, Job Number etc.
Example: Like "*" & [forms]![F_SearchFormWide]![Job Number] & "*"
If I put in may the first 3 characters of the job it pulls it up but when I put the full number nothing comes up.
Also the DB has 40,000 records. The total at bottom of query is only 16,000.
I have tried verifying my join connections making sure all jobs are pulling from job table, I tried all 3 ways. Why its not pulling up all my records.
I have created a database to track the paper files that I am accountable for. Every day I get requests from workers for various files. I have split the database so that multiple users can access the db and edit or change the status of files. In the be I have the main db with fields required for the files and I have another database (table 2) with similar fields that i use to generate an email form that workers fill out to request files. Access then automatically pulls that data from the email form and inserts in to table 2. I pull those requested files then enter the data in to table 1 so that I know the who/what/where of a files location. I want to be able to automatically insert info from table 2 into table one after I have pulled the file and checked it out.
View 2 Replies View RelatedLet's see how well I can explain this. I'm sure the issue is much simpler than I know but my knowledge is limited as this is all self-taught.
I have two tables:
Table 1:
Category Name
Part Name
# used per house
Table 2:
Part Name
MFR Name
Part Number
Initial Cost
Rebate %
Final Cost
In my form table 2 is the subform as there are multiple manufacturers that we get price quotes from for every part that we use. I'm trying to query for the minimum price for each part but I cannot get it to give back the MFR name that has the minimum price. I currently can only get it to show the minimum price for each part but that doesn't tell me which MFR it is that provides that price.
Also, Final Cost is just the Initial Cost multiplied by the Rebate %. Is there anyway to make it be auto-populated within the table. Currently I'm just running a text box on my form that multiplies the two fields but that leaves my Final Cost field in the table blank obviously.
I have a few other things but figure I'll start here lol. Any help would be appreciated
I have data from a survey with qualitative responses. For a single qualitative question, I moved the ID & responses into a new table and categorized the response according to a bucket/theme, where each column is a new bucket. I now have 10 columns. Each response is represented in 1 or more columns. I used an excel formula to copy the response data into the column itself.
Example:
A1 // B1// C1 // D1// E1//... L1
ID // Response // Cats // Dogs // Elephants //.... Column 10
1 // I like cats // I like cats //(null)//(null)// ... (null)//
2 // I like cats and dogs // I like cats and dogs // I like cats and dogs //(null)//..//
3 // etc.
However, now I'm realizing that Access always wants to show data for all records, or at most I can limit using a WHERE clause in my query.I want to use Access to generate this report:
1. Section 1: Show all responses from the Cats bucket where there is data
2. Section 2: Show all responses from the Dogs bucket where there is data
3. and so on
I know how to do summary values, and I know how to do filtering that apply across the whole report, but this seems like more advanced filtering, where I want to see selective details differently for each field.
I am currently trying to pull a query off from a table that needs to have 3 columns side by side, linking to the same ID number. I seem to have managed to do this by making three seperate queries for each column I need, however, when I put it into one query, it is only pulling through the data form the second column (a total of 273 rows), when it should be pulling through the data from the first column (800+ rows).
The SQL looks like thiss:
SELECT [SM_Antennas_DL-1_Q].[Site ID], [SM_Antennas_DL-1_Q].[Antenna Type], [SM_Antennas_DL-1_Q].[Electrical DT], [SM_Antennas_DL-2_Q].[Electrical DT], [SM_Antennas_DL-3_Q].[Electrical DT]
FROM ([SM_Antennas_DL-1_Q] INNER JOIN [SM_Antennas_DL-2_Q] ON [SM_Antennas_DL-1_Q].[Site ID] = [SM_Antennas_DL-2_Q].[Site ID]) INNER JOIN [SM_Antennas_DL-3_Q] ON [SM_Antennas_DL-1_Q].[Site ID] = [SM_Antennas_DL-3_Q].[Site ID];
So the data DL-1, DL-2, DL-3 is from the same database.
I have a table/form [tblStdAdv] [frmStdAdv] that contains all advisers a student had during their program. that form pulls from refAdv which has:
Type
1- initial
2- current
3- previous
and then an Adviser field, per record
I need to pull the adviser onto the student's main page [tblStdInfo][frmStdInfo] either "current" (if they have had changes) or "initial" (if they went through without an adviser change) .
I would like to pull the info into the main page so that I only have to change, or add to, the one form able and the main form stays up to date.
i tried using a query and was able to pull either "2" or "1" or "both" but could not make it look for "2" Current first and if not found then use "1" Initial.
I have two tables; one has just variances entered, the other is the total number of events for the month (normal events + variances). The variances become the numerator, and the total events is the denominator.The report does counts of variances based on location, type of variance, etc.This is working just fine, but I also need to show on the report the number of variance/total events (%).
I am struggling with pulling the data for total events into the variance report.The variances all have dates, the totals have start and end dates (monthly). For the variances, my query asks for date range, but I want this same date range to be used for pulling in totals from the other table.I am trying to use DSUM("monthlytotal", "tblTOTALS",Between "StartDate=input start date from report query" And "input end date from report query").Should I setup a form that after the start/end dates are enter, the report is launched using these dates?
I'm trying to make a button on a form that pulls data from a table in a database on a network share to the current open database (with the form).
Database on network share info:DB location: est.com est estdb.accdb
Table in DB: Table1
The current open database has the exact same table:Table2.In the following VBA line I get Runtime Error 3126: Invalid using of bracketing in name '' (The quotes at the end are 2x ')
Code:
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO Table2 SELECT [ est.com est estdb.accdb].Table1.* FROM [ est.com est estdb.accdb].Table1"
I tried everything with changing the [, " and even the path name of the external DB as variant of type string. Nothing seems to work.
Hi I currently have 2 seperate reports that I want to use in one.
I have...
1. A Date report that works from a form with a to and from field, it then finds all reports between those two fields.
2. A Client report from a form, a simple drop down box that gets it info from a query, it then works of a macro to find all records to that client
What I want is to have the one form where you can 1st select the client at the top from the drop down and then you enter the to and from date, once you click ok it will bring up all records for that client within the dates.
This is the code I use for the dates, is there a way to add an extra bit that makes it look at the client combo as well to just show the records for that client between the specified dates...Code:Private Sub OK_Click()Dim strReport As String 'Name of report to open.Dim strField As String 'Name of your date field.Dim strWhere As String 'Where condition for OpenReport.Const conDateFormat = "#mm/dd/yy#"strReport = "clientnameanddate"strField = "DateJobReceived"If IsNull(Me.txtStartDate1) ThenIf Not IsNull(Me.txtEndDate1) Then 'End date, but no start.strWhere = strField & " <= " & Format(Me.txtEndDate1, conDateFormat)End IfElseIf IsNull(Me.txtEndDate1) Then 'Start date, but no End.strWhere = strField & " >= " & Format(Me.txtStartDate1, conDateFormat)Else 'Both start and end dates.strWhere = strField & " Between " & Format(Me.txtStartDate1, conDateFormat) _& " And " & Format(Me.txtEndDate1, conDateFormat)End IfEnd IfDebug.Print strWhere 'For debugging purposes only.DoCmd.OpenReport strReport, acViewPreview, , strWhereEnd SubPS I didnt write this code i just edited it for my own use so please reply in simple terms
Any suggestions are appreciated !!!
Thank You
I am using Access 2010 (self taught and continuing to learn each time I get asked for a new report). I have created a query based on the data being selected from two combo boxes on a form, ie start date and end date. The report works as it should but I want to be able to automatically use the dates in the report heading. For instance, Summary Report from xxxxx to xxxxx, where xxxxx is the start and end dates that the user entered into the two combo boxes.
The date field on my query reads
Between [forms]![F - CboReportDates]![Start Date] And [forms]![F - CboReportDates]![EndDate]
I'm trying to take a database from MS database (Works 7.0) into Access 2002. I've done this before by saving it as a DBase IV file and then opening it as such into access. However, this time I need the EQUATIONS to transfer as well, not just the values. I care little about the form view, or even the values themselves, but need the equations to transfer. Please advise. Thanks. :confused:

I am using the following control source for a text box on a report: =nz([Raw_Turb], "---")When I do, it pulls data from a different field from the data source. I am pulling the data directly from the data table. I have tried creating a query and get similar results only from a different data field!I have tried the same control source on a different report and it works correctly! Why does it not work on the current report?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a database with a form called "Main" where users input data and then print a report from it. "Main" has fields in it from another form "Members". This data (from "Members") is shown on "Main' by Dlookup coding, and therefore cannot be selected for input by the user. Now, lets say a user inputs data into "Main" and prints the report on 12/30/2012. On the next day, a member's name is changed and I update that data in the "Members" form. On 12/31, I would like to print the report again, but it shows the updated member's name instead of what is was like on 12/30. How can I keep the old data in case I want to print the report in the future like it was initially printed? What do I need to do to any form(s), report or what VBA code needs to be written?
