I'm wondering if there is a way in Access 2013 to - for example - enter a value in a date field and then highlight it and drag it down to populate all the records in the table with that value, as can be done in Excel?
View RepliesI have a totalquery that runs fine and give me the sum for both fields I'm looking for but I can't get the outputs to fill the fields on the form. I have tried the Dcount query in the control source but that just returns an error and locks up access.
Code:
SELECT [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, Sum([Tble-wcDelays].HoursDelay) AS SumOfHoursDelay
FROM [Tble-wcDelays]
GROUP BY [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, [Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID
HAVING ((([Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID)=[Forms]![Frm-ePlusCent]![cleanID]));
That is the query.
How can I get some mainform fields' data to be the first entry in a subform? From the mainform, I would like the Head of Household name and date of birth to be carried over to the first entry in the HouseholdMembers subform.
The two forms are tied to separate tables. For each household member I need to be able to enter full legal name, date of birth and some additional pieces of information such as income and source of income.
What I'd like to avoid is making the users enter the Head of Household's name and date of birth twice. Is there a way to carry that information over to the subform?
Thank you, Charlotte
I have an order form that requires me to change the current promotion we're running continually. I need to populate all rows based on the update changes of one textbox. Is this possible? Right now when I update the promotion text box, it only updates the text for row one.

I have two tables in the same Access 2003 database.
Table1 is called "Clients" and has address type fields, e.g. street_name, postcode, etc. It also has a field called CYPAN_area.
Table 2 is called CYPAN_Postcodes and has two fields; postcodes and the CYPAN area that postcode belongs to.
I want to create a function so that when someone enters the postcode in table1, the database searches Table2 and identifies which CYPAN area that postcode belongs to and automatically populates the "CYPAN_area" field in Table 1.
any tips greatly appreciated

I want a quick-n-dirty method of filling char or numeric fields on a form with leading zeros. Can I do that without VBA?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm kinda new at ACCESS, and I've accepted an assignment that is giving me some trouble. For beginners, I could use some help as follows:
I am constructing a data entry form that is keyed on PID (Personal ID). I would like to be able to have certain fields in my form (Name, Title, Department, etc.) fill in automatically from information already stored in a different table, also containing the PID (which I can set as key). I would like this action to occur either when the PID field has reached 3 characters or when the PID field has LostFocus.
Thanks for any help in advance.

Is it possible to have some fields filled in automatically as soon as a certain value has been entered into another field. e.g. if a town is entered in one field, then the postcode is automatically entered into the next field.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a mainform Transactions with TransactionsID and a subform Site Details with SiteID. For non-database related issues (my users like things the way they are) at the moment I have to use text strings for the key fields instead of autonumbers.
SiteId begins with the TransactionID number (the program does check for uniqueness for TransactionID). At the moment the user copies and pastes the TransactionID into the SiteID textbox, and then just needs to add the site name.
I would like the SiteID to have the TransactionID partly filled in, so that one more step is eliminated. I have tried using forms!fTransactions!TransactionID, but I get #Error. I have also tried copying the TransactionsId text box onto the Site Details form and setting the property to invisible, and then using the forms! and I still get #Error. My first attempt was to change the data control of SiteID to TransactionID, but that didn't work either - it changed all the SiteIDs to their respective TransactionIDs. Fortunately I was working with a copy (rule number one of database design) and no harm done.
Is the issue that I am dealing with is that SiteID is a key field and that key fields can't be calculated? If so I will long for the day when all my key fields can be switched to autonumbers.
I am making a database and I require a box in a form where when I press a key, it enters the drink name, price, and stockID. It should also keep a running total of the price and make a subtotal where I can then input the cash given.
Can anyone help? How do I make the box?
Thanks,

I am new to Acces programming and have been tasked with making a database for work. I is a very simple database. What I need it to do though that I can't figure out is. Once the table is populated with information I want the user to be able to select a record from my combo box and then all the rest of the information from the record will automatically display in the correct text field so any changes can be made to it. So I have say Combo Box John Smith and when he is selected I want text field DOB to automatically fill with 01/01/1960 as that is what was put in there when he was first entered.
Thanks.
I am new to Access, but have an urgent need. I want to have certain fields (Yes/No type) to be selected based on a certain field (also a Yes/No) being selected.
It's very straight forward. Select West Coast, and the states CA, OR, and WA are selected. De-Select West Coast and the states CA, OR and WA are deselected.
Any thoughts? thanks in advance.

Is it possible to connect data so that when one field of a record is entered the rest of the fields associated with that first field of the record automatically fill in?
Example: If I were to enter a new contact record name in the name field I want the corresponding fields of address, city, state, zip, phone....etc. to fill in automatically.
I have the fields City, State and Postcode in my Member's table. My Member's form has the same 3 fields.
I have the CityLookup table which contains the City name and relevant State and Postcode.
I want my users to be able to either select from the combo dropdown list to select a City or start typing the name and the name will be autofilled from the list - then the correct City name, State and Poscode will automatically fill the fields on my form.
i have looked at a number of combo box methods and can not get one to work for me.
Any help would be appreciated.
The database needs to have columns for 17 individual connectors. These fields are populated from another table containing all of the possible connectors that could be used and a description of them. I need to set up a query that contains the 17 connector fields as well a field with the description of each connector. Is it possible to have this query auto populate the description fields from the table that contains the connectors. I have attached a picture below.... Each pin has a label that has to be manually filled and a pin name that has to be chosen from another table. I want to have the pin description fields auto populate to match the selected pin names.

I have a table with several fields. I would like to have a lookup in one field (combo list - get data from another table field) and for 2 other related field have the coressponding data appear automatically according to the selection in the lookup field.

Table2
Field1...|Field2... |Field3...|
Data1...|Data2...|Data3...|
I am not quite sure if my question is clear... I had trouble in describing it in my post...
Let's say in one table (called Employees) I have two columns, Name (the Primary Key) and Job (Both are text fields). One row contains "Jack" and "Gardener" in each column respectively. If I were to have a form for a different table where I select Jack's name from a drop down menu of all the "Names" in "Employees" and it then automatically fill in the next field with his Job (which would be "Gardener").
I really hope I'm making sense... Is this possible?
I have a form (Project Form) with (Project_ID,Applicant_ID,Project_description, etc). To make it easier for the user who may not know the Applicant _ID when he/she is adding a new project for the applicant, I want to put a combo box with the Applicant Names in it, and once the Applicant Name is chosen, the Applicant ID will be filled out automatically and be saved in the Project Table.
My Approach so far was adding a combo box with two columns(Applicant ID, Applicant Name), and basically adding the following code:
Private Sub Combo36_AfterUpdate()
Me.Applicant_ID = Me.Combo36.Column(0)
End Sub
This approach works well, when I select an applicant, the Applicant ID will pop up correctly. However, This ID is not being saved in the Project Table.
I have a data entry form feeding a table named [Group Members] using Access 2010.
It has 4 fields; [Group ID] & [Group Name] derived from tbl.[Groups] and [Member ID] & [Member Name] derived from tbl.[Mail List]. The 'ID' fields are foreign keys from the respective tables.
The 2 'Name' fields have drop down lists for input selection, but my requirement is to cause auto fill of the 'ID' fields when the respective 'Names' are selected.
I had assumed that this simple requirement could be achieved with a suitable control on the form property sheet. It is so simple to do in Excel!!
is there a way to have a form set to either auto populate fields based on the FIRST FIELD? For example: if the user type in the STUDY ID, the other fields like (first name, last name etc..) are auto-populated/auto-filled? and if the STUDY ID is new and not in the table, then the users simply fill in all the fields/complete the form and save? And I would also like a message box to show when I am typing the STUDY ID that would say something like: this person is on the system already. Click YES for this person and NO to add the user?...
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there an easy way in Data access pages to do like you do in forms as far as using a dropdown list and when you choose a name/acct#/rec# or whatever, that the rest of the fields are automatically updated to match? Just curious.
If you need an example, I can provide one.... basically, I'm trying to get a data-acess-page to act like a form so someone without access can do a simple search.
I have a Table named TBLBookings...on one of the fields I have a Lookup wizard thats linked to a Table named TBLVehicles which includes

Location
When I run the TBLBooking and click the drop down list it shows up
Car Reg
Car Type
Location
but once the field is clicked all it shows in the records is the REG where in a form id like to see what vehicle it is location etc...is it possible to have extra fields in the form named Car Type and Location and once the registration is chosen it automatically fills in the correct details for them?
