I've developed a multi user DB. When a user is keying in a record I want to be able to give them the ability to click on a button and the system automatically looks at two value from the previous record they keyed. There is a text box that contains their user ID so I can use this as a reference to look up their last record (I don't want them to take other users last records).
The fields are StartTime and EndTime. So I want the startTime and EndTime from their previous record to be dropped into the current record(without physically going backwards on screen).
I've got stuck in preparation of this sales query. The primary sales table contains a mix of Canadian and the US detail invoice sales records. All sales records are in their native currencies The secondary lookup table contains daily US/CAN foreign exchange rates (FX).
I need to multiply every $US sales record (marked with U) with the FX rate in order to convert it to the Canadian currency. Unfortunately, this FX lookup table is missing over 50 daily rates in the last two years and as a result I cannot match them date-by-date with the sales table.
As a workaround, it is acceptable to use the previous FX rate in the table. The previous rate can be one or more days before the transaction occurred.
Attached is a sample database with the query that I've already built. The query contains two sample US records that are missing the FX rate on Jan 6. The FX rate of $1.0639 that needs to be applied to it should come from Jan 3rd entry.

I currently have a table where we are logging a task number against a date and time for each employees to track activity.What I am looking to do is in a query have access lookup the previous reference number for the employee before the date/time of the individual record but on the same day
to show something like Staff 1 08/08/2015 12:00 Ref:1234 Previous Ref: Null Staff 1 09/08/2015 14:00 Ref: 3456 Previous Ref: Null Staff 1 09/08/2015 15:00 Ref: 7891 Previous Ref: 3456
Fields are Employee DTActStart - this is when task started DTActEnd - this is when activity ended Task ID - Reference for task (unique field)
I've tried seaching forums (Used DMax and Lookup) but doesnt find the most recent record before the in view record/I'm thinking a query is the best way so that when Print a report of tasks run of tasks will then show
I have a main form called FrmCalls with a button on, which when pressed brings up a pop up form called FrmSurround, within which is a subform in datasheet format called FrmContacts. This has 3 fields within it. I want the system to tak a value from Frmcalls (numeric value) when the button is pressed and place it as a new record in one of the fields on the datasheet (FrmContacts).
I'm creating a database which contains information for keeping dog grooming clients. It has 3 tables, table 1 is customer, table 2 is dog, and table 3 is booking.I want to be able to choose the customer table and within that you can see the pet linked to that customer and within the dog table you can see any bookings with that dog.What I have done is linked the pet and booking table to the customer details via mobile no. being the primary key.
I want a form called appointments which contains fields *ID, date, mobile, dog name, grooming stlye and other. What i want to happen is this, once the mobile number is entered, i then when it to lookup the mobile number in the dog table and pull the pet name from that, then in the dog name box it will then provide a drop down of dogs related to that mobile number.
I understand a query needs to be made in the dog name field, so in that field i created a query to look up the mobile no. in the appointment table, and to then lookup the pet name in the pets table. This kind of works. The two problems are this, the drop down in the dog name field shows all of the dogs in the database not just the ones assigned to the mobile no. in the field before. If i choose one of the dogs not related to that mobile it changes the mobile number in the field before to the relevant one (but i don't want to be able to see the dogs which arent related to the mobile no. in the field before.The other issue is that on one of the customers there are two dogs, now on the drop down you can see both dogs, but it will only allow you to select the dog that was entered first into the database. If i select the other dog it simply chooses the data for the one first entered.
I have read about doing Requeries on the afterupdate of the field and attempted this by choosing the dog name field and in the afterupdate telling it to requery pet name (I've also tried mobile), this hasn't worked. I have a feeling I'm getting a bit confused by which fields i'm supposed to use etc.
I need a way to dynamically store a particular value in "field_2" of the CURRENT record depending on whether or not the value of "field_1" of the CURRENT record is identical to the value of "field_1" of the PREVIOUS record within the same table. The table is sorted on "field_1".
So, if the value of "field_1" in the CURRENT record is "ABC" and the value of "field_1" in the PREVIOUS record is also "ABC", then store a value of "PPP" in "field_2" of the current record. IF on the other hand, the value of "field_1" in the CURRENT record is "ABC" and the value of "field_1" in the PREVIOUS record is "XYZ", then store a value of "WWW" in "field_2" of the current record.
I have a report that will use these results to count only the number of records that have a "WWW" in "field_2".
Is this doable, maybe in a query somehow?
I should add that whatever the solution, it needs to be compatible with Access 2000.
How to fill values in a new record with data from previous record?
I've total 11 columns in a table and values in 3 4 columns are repeating for few rows before it needs to be changed eventually. I want to fill these rows with values from previous record.
I need to know how to auto enter the date of the previous record into a new record. I have this db for my vehicle log sheets and I submit monthly a claim for the business km from my company. I usually cant remember the date of the previous claim and have to scroll back until I find the field with a date. It will be useful if the date was copied into every new record until I edit the date when I submit the claim. What I ask is during the new month all the dates will be the same until I submit the claim. I do not know how to do this, and yes I have done a search.
I'm struggling with a query to evaluate current and prior record data. I have a query producing 5000 records. I need to group records by Case ID and compare current date record to previous date record to determine if a team and worker name has changed during the year. I need to count how many times a cases is transferred to and out of a particular team from the beggining of the year. i.e., On 1/1/2014-Team1 has an inventory of 500 cases.
During the month 25 cases are transferred into Team1 and 15 cases are transferred out of Team1. So on 2/1/2014 Team1 begins with an inventory of 510 cases. Throughout the year cases come and go from and to Team1 each month so need to figure out how to create a query to count each change. See attachment displaying how the data is listed and how I invision it to work with the In/out column counts.
Specifically, at the begginig of the year (1/1/14) for case ID 1003 you can see it belongs to Mary in Team1 for January and February. Then in March the case is transferred out and went to Joe in Team 3. So for Mary a "-1" is recorded as a negative count for that Case ID. If later in the year the case is transferred back to Mary a "+1" would be recorded. Respectively evaluated for each of the 5000 records to get a total count for each of the teams by Case ID throughout the year.
I've started with DLookup, tried comparing current month to previous month using DMax. It works as long as I only select one case ID used in a separate query but if I use the whole subset (5000 records) it fails. I can't figure out how to group each set of case IDs and then apply the query.
create a macro that automatically fills in the next invoice number in sequence",,I'm assuming this macro would look at the value of the previous record and add a one to itI don't want to use a AutoNumber field as I might need
I need to add two previous record fields together in a query. I have attached a picture to illustrate.
The "StudyYears" filed is the primary key of the table the data is being pulled from. The zero's are placeholders for the sum of the previous record's data.
How do you compare one record to the previous record? I have a query that shows items sold. It is sorted by day with today on top. I would like to create a column that has a 'thumb up' or 'thumb down" if todays was a better day than yesterday.
I have an inventory report that I am given among the fields are Item, Ship Date, Signed Quantity, Filled-Recvd, On Hand I am given an initial amount in the onhand field but the fields below that for that item are blank. What I would like to do is [Signed Quantity] - [Filled-Recvd] and then add that to the On Hand from the previous record and place it in the on hand field..
If it were in excel I would say G2 – H2 + I1 G = Signed Quantity H = Filled-Recvd I = On Hand TIA! Scott
I have a Motorhome which I want to check it's Fuel Economy, seems simple! I record the odomiter readingwhen I fill up with petrol and the amount of petrol pumped in to fill tank and the cost I have done it in Excel 97 but I would like to convert to an Access 97 Database. The purpose is to open an Access Form, add a record with Three Fields, namely the odomiter reading, Amount of Fuel pumped into tank, and Cost. I would then like Access to subtract the previous record's odomiter reading from the new odomiter reading to obtain the distance traveled since last fill and using this number and the other 2 fields I can calculate my fuel economy I tried to attached the Excel (97) spreadsheet for your information but it was too large for this forum The calculations are based on Australian Dollars, LPGas and Litres but it would make no differance if it were Gallons, US Dollars etc. I would very much appriciate a note to tell me if anyone is able to assist me with this problem. Thank You Paul Leaver Glenview Queensland Australia rpleaver@bigpond.net.au
I'm a novice with Access but I thought I would use Access rather than Excel to record fuel use for our vehicles because the reporting functions should be more powerful.
I have set up a table where I input date, vehicle, member of staff, mileage of the vehicle and the cumulative reading from the fuel tank meter. I thought it should be simple enough to calculate the fuel used each fill by taking the meter reading away from the reading on the previous record, but I cannot find a way of getting Access to do this.
Hi Im wanting to set a default text from a previous record. I have a fields that has Start location and Finish location, Im wanting to set a defaulf so that the Finish location from the previous record is defaulted to the Start location of the next. Is this possible???? Please help.
:confused: I am trying write a select query to find the past age of the records based on a dated field "consigned date" and select only those records over 10 days old. I would like the user to input the date in time that will be used for the calculation reference. When I try this Access tells me the function is too complex. The query works when I change the user selected date with "date()" but this only give me the current age of the record not the age it was at a previous date. I would like to sum all record older than 10 days old from a user inputted date. Can someone please help I have exhausted my Access capabilities.
My code looks like below:
Records over 10 days: Sum(IIf([user input date]-[Consigned Date]>=10,1,0))
This one give me the current age. Records over 10 days: Sum(IIf(date()-[Consigned Date]>=10,1,0))
Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can help me with this query. I've had a look at some of the previous posts under previous record, but don't seem to be able to get to the bottom of it:
I have a set of data on employees who have all had one or more financial searches done on them and I want to return a field based on the previous record of that employee.
I would like an extra field that looks at the previous row, decides whether or not the previous row is the same employee id and if it is returns "Same" and if it isn't returns "Different"
Ive added my own navigation buttons as I needed to add some code to them, but when a user gets to the first / last records & presses previous / next record, they get an error message 'cannot go to the specified record' and have to close & reopen the form. It's prob. quite simple, but how do I get round this please?
When I click my command button that says, "New Record", I want it to go to go to a new record and populate the field "Town" with the value in the previous record.
e.g. ClientID on last record is 150 and has Town="London". Click "New Record". New record created. Town field on ClientID 151 has Town="London".
Hi there, I'm trying to make a form which calculates the annual depreciation value of a property. I have tried using the PrevRecVal function and I even made the following query:
SELECT Last(PropertyDepreciation.[Total]) FROM PropertyDepreciation WHERE (((PropertyDepreciation.PropertyID)=(Forms!Propert yDepreciationSF!PropertyID)) And ((PropertyDepreciation.PDID)=((Forms!PropertyDepre ciationSF!PDID)-1)));
But still no luck. I made a text field called PreviousTotalValue to see what sort of information was being returned by the query and PrevRecVal and for both, #Name? is returned. Any ideas fellas? Bob
I have still not solved the problem wich is doing my head in!!! In the following DB I have the "frm1" wich the value of the first record for "Value1" is 10 when I pass to the second record Iwould like to show automatically the value 10 in the field "Value1" this for all the records untill I change toa new value so from then on it will show the new value. I believe is the Dlookup function, but I have not find the way to make it work. I must be thick but I need your help!!!!! Thanks
