I then have various support queries that group customers based on reason for visit, type of visit etc. I need to be able to link this to my main table so that each customer has a category against them. The issue I have is that some customers will have more than one visit ref, which can also mean they have multiple reason for visits. I need to make sure that when I link my queries back to the main table that the right category appears against the customer and their correct visit ref.
I created a database for a survey. There are a lot of number fields and a few yes/no fields. I did a query to give an average for the number fields and a sum of the yes for the yes/no fields. I get the right number for the yes/no fields, but the number is negative. What do I need to do so that the number is positive?
I have a form with various text, date and combo controls. There is a button at the button that runs a macro (Close NB) at the bottom. What I'm trying to do is bring up a msgbox if certain fields are blank and not run the macro. I only want the macro to run if all the fields specified have data in them.
The fields are : cmb_cliname cmb_disease cmb_projectType cmb_ProposalStatus
The on click code is: If (Me.cmb_cliname Is Null) Then MsgBox "Please fill in the relevant details", ElseIf (Me.cmb_Disease Is Null) Then MsgBox "Please fill in the relevant details"
I`m trying to put 2 identical tables in terms of structure and layout with some identical values next to each other however I don't have unique identifier. I was thinking to import them and let access to create Id field and match them together but i wasn't successful because for some reason access changed the order of some rows. Good news is that when I import these text files into excel Im able to put them next to each other in order. How this could be achieved in Access?
I am creating a Make Table Query and calculating new fields based on current and prior year-end numbers. If the prior year-end number does not exist (Is Null), I want the use the current rate or calculate the change in rate. I have typed the below in the Field Box:
CHG_IN_PGM_RATE: IIf(([P0_10 Tbl - AM PYE PTD Detail w Rates]![PTD_PYE_PGM_RATE]) Is Null,([MASTER LIST CURRENT]![PTD_PM_PGM_RATE]),(([MASTER LIST CURRENT]![PTD_PM_PGM_RATE])-([P0_10 Tbl - AM PYE PTD Detail w Rates]![PTD_PYE_PGM_RATE])))
However, when running the query, I get the attached error message.
The screenshot will also show how the two tables are joined.
I was wondering if it was possible to link random external tables to the Active Database through VBA. I would like to run the code that would open up a dialog box that would let the user select the database as well as the tables within that database that the user can select to link to. I am able to select the database and but not able to select the actual tables. The tables will be random so I can't make a constant statement for a specific database.
One of the common denominators between them is the URN which is auto-populated as it is an auto number field. My issue is that when I want to add a new record to the payments table using the forms (I can get to the payments form via the register form), I want to be able to identify the record that I am currently viewing within the register and auto populate the URN field with the same number. This is what I have done so far,
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Private Sub AttachPaymentDetails() Call PerformInsert("tblFinancialBudget", "frmFinancialBudget") End Sub
I am trying to create a table for an assignment on normalization. It is similar to the problem here : http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/Pub0009/LPMArticle.asp?ID=88
I am trying to make it so that if a name appears in the Spouse, Child 1,2 or 3 column it will automatically appear in a dependants database with the EmpID and the Name of the Dependants, as separate objects so that the EmpID could be repeated. I have scoured info and I can't seem to make it work. Any help would be appreciated.
I was wondering if there is a way to link one field from a table to another table?
I have a main table that all of the data goes to and then a second table that the completed data goes to. I have made a query to show info from the main table and one field from the second table and it will only pull the info that is on both tables...i want it to tell me the info that is not on the second table:confused:
Sorry if this is confusing, but any help would be appreciated...thank you Cori
I am fairly new to Access and i am trying to create a database that stores member's details and records the payments that they make monthly.
I have 2 tables:
Members:Id number Fname Sname etc
and
Fees: Id number Fname Sname Amt paid Jan Amt paid Feb etc
What i want to happen is that any member's details entered in the members table also appears in the Fees table so that only the amout paid needs to be entered.
Having a little problem, have searched the forums but have not been able to find an answer.
I have a single db with 3 tables, artist, gallery and arts.
The main form should show the work details for each artist, i.e. each piece of art they have done. The problem I have is I think I have a link or relationship problem as when I try to create a new record in the arts table, I have a combo box which populates the artist name and gallery name and it should then store these details in the arts table along with the rest of the details I enter but it doesn't.
Each table has an autonumber and there is a one-to-one relationship from arts to artist and arts to gallery.
I would like to link 2 fields in a form. If I select data within one field with drop down list it should automatically bring up a name within the 2nd field. How would I be able to do this?
I've managed to lind the subforms to this drop down list which works brilliantly but this is a field within a form that I don't know how to link.
Ok. I have used access before to hold data but have always accessed and used it via asp. I have never actually tried to use the access forms and queries! But for a current project i am having to use it.
So far its been fairly simple but im stuck on one point. I have one table that holds user info and has a foreign key from another table. On my form i want the user to be able to lookup the foreign keyes available. Only i want the lookup to show the description field in the other table not the unique id (primary key) but when they slect the relevant row its obviously need to record the primary key of the other table in the foreign key field in my user info table.
How can this be done? Im not sure if i explained this very well. If anyones unsure what i mean please ask my to clarify.
I have to date fields one called from and the other called to suppose to look like this frm 07/05/05 to 07/05/05 what i want to do is when i type the date in the from field the same date will automatically appear in the to field any ideas.
My question is this: I have a form called Family with a RecID field. When I create a new record on this form the RecID field auto assigns a #. Then the user is supposed to click the command button which brings them to another form called Child. This Child form has the RecID field and another called RecChildID. The RecID field is linked to the same RecID field as form the previous form. But when I enter the child form and start it's linked record the RecID field is not filling in/ copying over the same # as the previous form. How can I get it to update the RecID from the first form to the second form? Thanks!
I have two different tables. Table1 contains information such as the name of a patient, which is the primary key, date of birth etc (fields that will not change). Table2, linked by the subject id, contains information about tests that they may have gone through. A form has been made using these two tables, in which table1 is that main form, and table2 is a subform. I want to add a field in table2 called "CurrentAge", which will use the date of birth specified in table1, to calculate their current age, and would like it to be displayed in the subform.
I created a sys admin database and the big problem I am having is linking the hostname field in table 1 to the hostname field in table 2. I have tried making both fields primary keys, I have tried creating a relationship to the two fields between the two tables. I have tried adjusting the join types.
Yet, no matter what I try, the hostnames from table 1 will not populate in table 2. I have even tried adding a new hostname to see if it would populate and it won't.
[General Info] has 2 fields. Name(is a primary Key as well) & Organisation
[Details] has 4 fields. Primary Key, Name, No of products & Type
[Details] is a sub form for [General Info]
It is a one to many relationship. With Name from [General Info] linking to Name from [Details].
I can update via the table directly and [Details] links the name fields automatically. I created a form but the form just cannot register the field automatically and requires the user to type in the Name from [General Info].
I have attached the DB file. Pls help... your help is greatly appreciated!
At the moment i have an exisiting database that was not created by me. It consits of about 7 tables and a main table. Each table has a Primary Key that is a joining field. The Main form is built with subforms and when i enter a number in the primary key filed of the main table it enters that number in all the other primary keys in the other subforms. i have now tried to create another subform to put into the main form but i cannot get this "link" between the primary fields to work. can someone please help.
I have a form with contact info, which also has a subform with other data on it. The subform is a continuous mode form. If I go to the "New" line (last line) of the continuous form, I can add information, and the records are linked via the customerID field on both the form and subform.
I want to have a button on that subform that says "New" that opens up a different form in a popup. I can do that part just fine, but when I try to enter data onto the popup form, the customerID field does not populate with the ID number of the person on the main form. It defaults to a value of "0".
So, is there a way to link the 2 forms like you can with forms and subforms? Or is there a way to have the customerID field in the popup form just populate based on the other form?
Not sure if this makes sense, but please help if you can. Thanks.
I'm formatting an Access table and need help linking 1 field to another. I need to specify that Field B will state "N/A" if and only if (back to good old geometry) Field A states "Yes." I've tried using the ValidationRule and Default Value functions but they don't let me refer back to Field A. Any thoughts would be hugely helpful.
Hi i am working with a database that contains customer information and sometimes files and attachments will need to be saved into the database. I presume i will have to save the attachments somewhere and then link to them, but i really haven't a clue where to start. Does anybody have any information about this or even know where i can look for information! Thanks in advance! Treasa
