I have created forms to add data. What i do is click the add new record command button and add the details. But when i open the form again, it does not show the record which i have just added. However the record is present in the tables.
got any ideas? please help:(
Hey Gang,
Thanks for all your help on my previous problem but I now have another one that just seemed to start out of the blue. When I open my form the record selectors don't allow me to browse through all the previously entered records. This is a huge problem because if changes need to be made I can't call up the record to do so. I plan on adding a search funtion to the database soon but for now I need to be able to search through the records on my main form. Is there something I should look for or do you have any suggestions?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,

Ok this null value thing is killing me. I have a parameter query that works great. I know if I use Is Null in the criteria field it will show me this. The problem is I made a search form which the users type the value in and it opens a form based on the parameter query, the parameter on the query is [Forms]![Search_frm]![txtClosed]. If they type a date in here it opens the form and shows the user all the closed records. The problem is they want to see all the records that have no value or Null. I've tried eveything to make this work. I'm ready to jump!! Just kidding. Is there a way to do this with out creating another query. Thanks a bunch!!!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am building a search form in my DB. I have got this working by using a text search box on the main form which then links to a subform that shows the results. This works great, however, when the form is first opened, it shows all the records that be searched. Is there any way that I can stop this? I just want the subform to be blank until a search is ran.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI currently have a database which has a fairly simple form linked directly to a table, which records staff attendance information.
It generally works really well, however there is one thing I would like it to do, which is be able to hide certain records from view (rather than delete them completely).
I have a checkbox on the form (bound to a corresponding field on the table) called chkHide (the field in the table is called hide), which is not visible in form view; I have a button that is visible and when pressed by a user it will change the value of the check box to True.
So far so good. However, I would then like to have the form refresh and when it does so no longer show the record to the user (so it looks like it has been deleted, but in fact that record remains in the table).
I have tried applying a filter on load, but I don't know what expression to put in the Filter on the Property Sheet - - I have tried [Hide] = Is Null, but that isn't right. I have also created a Query where I have set the criteria for the field 'Hide' to Is Null and then put the name of the query in the Filter box - that doesn't work either, as it will let me put in new records but not let me see any of those put in before the form was refreshed.
When I add new records to the form and close the form, the tables are updated with the new records, but the new records don't show in the form (navigation).
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have search filter form that when I click the search button is passing a value in OpenArgs to the Main Form on open event. The OpenArgs is changing the recordsource of the subform on the main form appropriately. However, the main form is referencing all of the records, not just the ones that are int eh subform recordsource. My link master and child fields are correct. There is a 1:N relationship between my mainform table and subform table.
For example, my my subform, the recordsource is diplaying 2 records where the Status = BLUE, however, the mainform (Projects) is showing ALL records even where the status isn't blue. So when I scroll through the mainform records, if the project isn't status = blue, the status subform shows a blank record. I only want the Projects where the status is blue.
data not showing where no records
I have 2 tables...
tblEvents
tblFMForEradication
i am trying to run a query to generate the number of events that have happened for each code that appears in the tblFMForEradication table.
however when i run the query i only get 17 records returned wheras there are 30 records in the tblFMForEradication table.
If the code has not occured i need it to display zero,
but i always need all the codes in the tblFMForEradication to be listed in this case there should always be 30 records in the list.
please help

This is so weird.
I have a form that I built and is based on a relationship between four different tables. I can enter info into the form, save it, and verify that it saved to each of these tables. The problem is that once I close the form and re-open it, none of the previously entered info shows up. Bottom of the page shows 1 record, but I can still see all of the info when I open the tables. Please help.
Hello. This is a very basic question. I have a query that has relationships set within. Now.. When I pull up the query with a criteria such as "date" ... the query pulls up all the information for only the items that have all the related fields filled in. How would i make this query show ALL the items from that "date" even if their related fields are blank or there are no relationships in another table?
Please let me know.

Just setting up the query filters in MS Access 2007, by simply going into the design view for that particular query, setting the criteria, so really can't see how it isn't working? I put Like "*TOF*" in the criteria field and no records are returned for that, even though there's many records including that word in that field?
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi, I hope someone can help me. I have a database as thus:
Several tables ->appended together using 'union select' into a query called 'sheet1'-> information that is coded converted via linked tables in a query called 'sheet2'
'Sheet 2' looks completely fine - it works dandy but when I try and run a pivot table not all of the values in one column that should show don't even come up as an option.
The values that are missing on the pivot report do actually exist in the query that it is running from.
There are no filters on and Pivot tables work okay on the origional tables.
Has anyone had anything similar?
Help would be most appreciated,
Thanks,

Hi All
I have a feeling that this is an absolute newbie question.
I have three queries, qryVisitsDue, qryVisitsOverDue, qrySiteView.
The query qrySiteView uses SiteID to produce a listing of all sites which includes a count of visits for those sites. If there is no visit data the site does not display. To display the counts I'm using the other two queries. In the first two I'm querying a table, tblVisits, to find what visits are due or overdue based on the current date. They work fine where there is visit data. My problems start when there is no data for a site. I need to be able to show the sites where there is no visit data.
I'm not very experienced so basic explanations are probably the best.
Any help much appreciated.

I have two tables, bad design, not my choice of the way it's set up.
Table a has Fields 1-2, dups allowed in all fields. No pk was originally assigned.
Table b also has the same fields 1-6, but also has field 6.
Table a has all of the records in question, table b only has some of the records from table a but does not have any records that are not in a.
Something like this.
Table a
Field1 Field 2 Field 3 Field 4 Field 5
John Shirt blue denim button
Mark pants green straight
John Shirt blue silk button
Table b
Field1 Field 2 Field 3 Field 4 Field 5 Field6
John Shirt blue denim button new
Mark pants green straight used
If I query the two tables, a left join to b, then I get the correct number of total records. If I select any records from b, then the total records goes higher than there are, even for the two combined, listing the same record multiple time.
Any suggestions are appreciated. I am a blood bank lab person, not an IT person, or DBA, so simple responses are greatly appreciated.
I am doing some ICT coursework and I a bit stuck.
I am creating a database that will allow users to log in and submit bids on houses. There are only a certain amount of house plots available, but I cannot seem to make the database find the top bidders within the plots available, for example the top 5 bidders or top 7 bidders, depending on how many plots available.
I have 4 fields, from two different tables. I have a bidder ID field, House Type ID field (which I use "[please enter house type ID"]), a bid amount field and Number of plots field.
I want the query to select the top "x" amount of bids that it says in the number of plots field, e.g. 5.
How can I do this for all the different house types?
I have a form "Training", with a combo box that holds employee names and a subform with all of their training records linked by "EmployeeID". Quite often lately, when the user selects their name from the combo and the code below runs, someone else's records appear in the subform. There doesn't seem to be any kind of pattern, ie. the previous employee on the list or the next, etc.
Private Sub Combo6_AfterUpdate()
' Find the record that matches the control.
Dim Rs As Object
Set Rs = Me.Recordset.Clone
Rs.FindFirst "[EmployeeID] = " & str(Me![Combo6])
Me.Bookmark = Rs.Bookmark
'Forms!Employees![Combined Subform].SetFocus
End Sub
I have the db split with both the FE and BE on the server and a batch file that runs from a link on our intranet. The table that holds all of the data is at 3,195 records and the db is just under 4MB. I compact/repair regularly.
There are 66 users - usually 3-4 concurrently.
Is it time to think about moving the BE to SQL or Oracle?
Thanks for any help you could offer.

A form I created contains buttons for the user to restrict the display- showing records that are tasked to one specific employee.
So their choices are Employee a, employee b or all employees.
This is a process I use a lot :)
This last form opens with NO records displayed. When a button is clicked the records show correctly.
Any idea what to check?
Thanks,
My form, which is linked to my employee's table wont show all the records.
I know this is a basic thing. I've checked that it's not set to data entry in properties. I don't know what else to do.
the record source maybe? However, It was a tabbed form (cause it contains quite a lot of data capture fields).
this problem has occurred ever since I split my database.
I have a bunch of records that are assigned to categories which are problem tickets. I would like to print the report showing not just the categories that have records open in them now, but also ones that don't have any records in them. So say I have these three categories. Power, Circuit, Hardware failure..If I have a few open tickets in circuit and hardware failures and none in power. Power will show show up on the report but with no records listed underneath it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a subform that displays records from a query. Usually, there is no issue. Sometimes, though, the subform stays blank for no apparent reason.
Observations:
-Open form and select relevant information (subform stays blank)
-Open query and 1 record is present
-Go form layout view and turn "Data Entry" on, then back off
(The form appears to refresh when this setting is changed and the subform is displaying the 1 record properly now)
-Close form, re-open, and select the same information as before (subform, again, stays blank)
Again, the subform usually displays the records just fine. It's only sometimes that it has this blank issue even though records are present in its source query. I've tried refresh and requery macros on the form and subform, but that doesn't get the information to show up (though, switching "Data Entry" on and off does).
HI THERE.
IVE GOT A QUICK QUESTION ABOUT DATA ACCESS PAGES AND THE DATA THAT IS SHOWN. IVE CREATED A DATABASE THAT HAS AROUND 25,000 RECORDS OF LANDUSE PROPERTIES AND HAVE CREATED A DATA ACCESS PAGE TO VIEW THESE RECORDS. THE PROBLEM IM HAVING IS THAT WHEN I LOAD THE FORM ONLY 1000 RECORDS SHOW OUT OF THE 25,000 THAT I HAVE IN MY DATABASE.
ARE THERE ANY SETTINGS THAT ALLOW YOU TO CHANGE HOW MANY RECORDS CAN BE SHOWN? IS THIS ONE OF THE SHORT FALLS OF DATA ACCESS PAGES? :confused:
ANY COMMENTS MUCH APPRECIATED.
Please help me fix my database

I have a query which selects a material ID and material name from one table and the associated manufacturer, supplier, and packaging type from three other tables. Some of the manufacturer, supplier, and packaging data were imported from an Excel spreadsheet and did not have data for those fields, so those fields are blank. When I run the query, I only get the records which have all fields filled out. How can I get the records where the material ID and material name are filled in, but the manufacturer, supplier, or packaging type are blank? Here is the query I'm using currently:
Code:
SELECT tblMaterialSpecifications.ID, tblMaterialSpecifications.Critical, tblMaterialSpecifications.MaterialSupply, tblManufacturer.Manufacturer, tblSupplier.Supplier, tblPackaging.PackageType
FROM tblPackaging INNER JOIN (tblSupplier INNER JOIN (tblManufacturer INNER JOIN tblMaterialSpecifications ON tblManufacturer.ID = tblMaterialSpecifications.ManufacturerID) ON tblSupplier.ID = tblMaterialSpecifications.SupplierID) ON tblPackaging.ID = tblMaterialSpecifications.PackagingID
WHERE (((tblMaterialSpecifications.ActiveInactive)=-1))
ORDER BY tblMaterialSpecifications.Critical, tblMaterialSpecifications.MaterialSupply;
