I have a query that simply pulls back each tenant from a tenant table. Each row has a bit field that I use for check box's. This check box is true or false depending on the balance they owe. I currently use it to print off late reports and people that have this field set to true have a check box that auto populates on my datasheet.
I copied the query but I want to change it a little. I want to be able to show all tenants, but I want the bit field to show on my datasheet defaulted to checked for everyone (even if the table shows false) so that I can print all tenants without having to check the fields that are false in my table.
I tried to create an expression instead of using the bit field, but I no longer have the option to make that column into a "Check Box" under Lookup-Display Control.
I have a form that has a check box. If the box is checked then I would like the next field to be available for data entry, however, if the box is unchecked, then I wish for the next field to be grayed out and not available for data. I suspect that it is a simple bit of VBA, but I am not fluent in VBA and need help everytime, I find something new. Thanks for all your help.
I'm fairly new to using Access for any serious purposes. I'm trying to replicate some database functionality I setup in Salesforce and just trying to clear few core concepts in Access.
I'm messing around in the Contact Management template and I'm wondering how I can make it so when so when a yes/no checkbox field (called "Active") is ticked a date/time field (called "Last Date") is automatically set to today's date + 60 days.
In Salesforce I would create a Workflow Action triggered by an if Active = true statement, with a Field Update something like TODAY() + 60.
I can tell I need to create an After Insert/After Update Data Macro but can't quite figure out what to put in.
Finally got my DB straight so I am not using calculated fields however can't figure out the best way to handle the Combo Box so I do not show closed records ( Item checked out and item returned).
Please see the attached table of materials checked out and materials returned. How to setup a query so that if an item has been returned and matches the item checked out, Both the original check-in and the matching return records are filtered and not displayed in the Combo Box.
Also, I am a little worried about partial returns as when an employee only returns half the amount.
I have a data field (status) that is either Graduated, Terminated, or Current. I also have a report that has a check box representing each (such as a check box for graduated and another for Terminated etc).
I am trying to get the report to read the status and check the appropriate box in the report.
I have tried this in the control source of the checkbox =IIf([status]="terminated";True;False) but this does not work
I have also tried this on the OnOpen
If [status] = "terminated" then termcheck = true else termcheck = false end if end sub
But this does not work either - what am I doing wrong :confused:
I have created a user form that contains check boxes for various fields, and on this form, when the box is checked, I get a prompt that the field cannot be updated. I have several other forms that use these same yes/no fields, and I am not having the same problem on these forms. I checked the property sheet row source for the form and I don't see anything wrong with the select statement (that I know of).
Expressions in Access have given me some trouble before. Mainly due to inexperience. I hardly ever work with them. What I am trying to do is make the default value of a form textbox control the minimum value of a field A in a table A. The datatype of Field A is Date.
So far I've got:
=Min([table A].[field A])
In the Default Value of the form's property sheet, but this just returns a blank value. I've had a look in the table and there is no value that is blank in field A.
I was wondering how to delete records that have been checked (through a checkbox) in a form...
Also, I want to add a record after the record that has been checked. I only want this ability to add records available if only one record is checked. Otherwise, if more than one record is checked, the "Add Record" button would be disabled.
MS ACCESS 2010,i need to create macro, on insert. which will send mail if is selscted specificed value in combo multivalued list.but, i cant access to that field to test it.
Hello. I am looking for a way to make a field value automatically default to the value of the immediate prior field. For example, I am in record 11, and in Field "City" I type "New York." When I create record 12, I want City to automatically default to "New York." Is there a way to do this?
ex. total: [rate]*[dys] (working) ex2. total: [rate]*[dys]-[late] (not working when one of the field(late) doesnt have value)what i want to happen is even if the late field doesnt have value i want it to still calculate
just like in excel =a1*b1-c1 (even if the c1 doesnt have value it still works properly but in access total: [rate]*[dys]-[late] (if the late doesnt have value, nothing shows up in total field, even though rate and dys have.what i did was i assigned the default value of late field properties to 0.but the 0 is just so annoying to see when i have to many data.can i calculate 3 fields in access just like excel even if one of the field doesnt have value? if my only option is to set the default value of late to 0 , is it posibble to hide the default value?
Linked field is shown both in Master and child tables, but not in the default subdatasheets made by when a relationship is made between a Master and Child Table.
How do I make sure that for every record entered, a certain field automatically has a number 1 in it? I thought that it might be that you set the Default Value to 1 by typing "1" in the bit where it says "Default Value" at the bottom of the page. But this doesn't seem to work. :o
We have a database form that we use to create "SDN" forms for our engineering department. We want it to autogenerate a number for us for each form. We want this field to be 5600 + the record number. How do I do this?

I have a look-up field in a table that looks-up a range of values from another table. How do I set a default value for the field? I have tried entering in numbers as default values (IE the ID numbers for the records that are being looked up) but that doesnt work.
I have a form that is designed from one table. In this form I want one field to have the default value of a different field only if the one field has a value entered.
I've tried in the default value tab to enter =IIF([different field] is null,"",[different field]) nothing happens when I enter a value into the "different field".
Can I make the default value of a field be something in another field in another table. I tried to enter into the default value the following but, it does not find the field.
[tablename].[fieldname] I also tried it [fieldname].[tablename].
