Related Field On Form
Apr 14, 2005
Dear All
I am creating a form that is bound to the main table in my database.
However, I want to show one field from another table on the form that is linked to the main table (one-to-many relationship). I would do this using a sub-form but I also want the form to be a continuous form (as this has been asked form from on high) and Access won’t let me have a sub form if the main form is continuous.
Is there any other way that I can show the related field?

I have my Assets form and the primary key is the ChargerID, in this form I have an "Add New Job For This Asset" button, which opens up the Jobs form at a new record.
How do I make it so that the ChargerID field is automatically filled with whatever the previous record was instead of being blank.
For example if I have Charger12345 open in the Asset form, I'd like to click the Add New Job button and it automatically have Charger12345 in the ChargerID field of the Jobs form.

In a form of mine, I have the user input other person's initials, but I don't want those initials showing up on the report. It's a set group of initials to work with so I have each set associated with a random 3 digit number (that I input into the table myself). I'd like to be able to have the person input the initials in the form, but have the numbers display on the report, I'm not sure how to go about doing that.

how to write code to open a second form on the click of a button on the first form and specifically to continue on the record set I am focusing on.
I have 2 tables. The first is tblAccount (fields: AccountID [the PK]; AccountHolder) and the 2nd is tblUser (fields: UserID [the PK]; UserName; AccountID). They are linked so that one account can have multiple users. Each has a respective form; frmAccount and frmUser.
My goal is that once the AccountHolder field has been populated in frmAccount I can click a button to open frmUser with the AccountID field already showing in the form header.
I have managed to do something similar by selecting from a combo box before but I am having trouble making this work after directly populating the AccountHolder field and using an open Form button.

I have a combobox on my form with fields related to it (ie. when an option is chosen in the drop-down, the next two fields are also populated with data based on the selection made - I know this is duplication of data, it's just the way the 'powers that be' wanted it. I'm changing it in my next version of the database!)
The two fields that are populated as a result of the selection in the combobox are migrating into the related table fine, but the actual selection in the combobox isn't - it's showing up as blank in each new record in the table.

In my query, I have several results that relate to the same PK overall, and I'd like to concatenate these records into one expression/one field in a form.
Currently my query looks like this;
As you can see, the BandPK/BandFK are repeated where the GenreFK/GenrePK are different. What I'd like to do is concatenate the column named Genres into one field so the BandFK/PK isn't repeated.

I'm sub-novice when it comes to Access I'm trying to get calculated data in a field in a sub table to autofill in a field in a related table. So all of the data in 'total hours' column is calculated by the variable inputs in the 'hours' fields. Once there, I want it to feed itself into the 'total hours' field on the main table. Is that possible? Also - the 'total hours' field in the sub table won't calculate anything unless a value is placed in EVERY 'hours' field in the same sub table (e.g. 0).

Hello
Could you help me ?
My problem is :
I'm developing a ms database for the a "repair service" .
I created a table witch contains basic data from customer, including its unique ID number (key field), name and contacts ...
Now I need to store the "repair service" data from each costumer ( its time consumption, replaced materials...) in a separate table but, If I'm thinking well, I must have a table for each costumer so, I will need to link each individual "repair service" data table from each costumer to each costumer itself.
Do you know how to do this ?
Lots of thanks in advance,
Miguel

In a case where two tables are related, can the field names which relate them be the same? Or is it necessary to use different field names?

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how I can do the following without using code: I think it's really easy, and am sure I've done it hundreds of times before, but my minds gone blank...
When I select an entry from a combo box in a form, I'd like a related entry to appear in another field on the same form. I have a table with the both fields stored in it, although theres only 3 records so this might not be necessary.
Many thanks,
Nicola

I have 2 related tables by ID field.
In a subform I have all fields of a one table, when I make click in a button, open other form with info related by these ID.
All is ok but I have some doubts:
If in the second form (second table) there is no registers, how could shows me the ID by default and that the ID field is not empty
If I create a new register inside second form with a button, I would like that the ID field was always filled because the user don't need to know the ID.

Hi,
Need some help. Here's the problem:-
I've two fields in a table (A & B)
A B
1 Null
2 Null
3 1
4 2
5 3
6 5
7 Null
8 4
9 6
The fields are somehow related where values of B (unique) is taken from A(unique).
I trying to do an SQL such that if I input a single value A=9 or 6 or 5 or 3 or 1, the following should be the output:
A B
9 6
6 5
5 3
3 1
1 Null
Or in another case where I input a single value A=8 or 4 or 2
the following should be the output:
A B
8 4
4 2
2 Null
How can I do that? Many thanks in advance!! :D

How can I include a field from a table in to a query - that has no relationship?
For example...
The 'Despatch' field is in a seperate table called 'Product', because we despatch multiple products for any ONE order at different times, so it needs to be against the Product and not the full job itself.However, when I include the 'Product' table into the query and insert the 'Despatch' field into my query, and run it comes up with an error...
"The SQL Statement could not be executed because it contains ambiguouse outer joins. To force one of the joins to be performed first, create a seperate query that performs the first join and then iclude that query in your SQL statement". Here's the current SQL statement
Code:
SELECT [Materials Requested].[Job No], [Materials/Orders].Total, Jobs.[Project Name], Product.Despatch
FROM Product, Orders INNER JOIN (((Customer RIGHT JOIN Jobs ON Customer.[Customer ID] = Jobs.[Customer ID]) INNER JOIN [Materials Requested] ON Jobs.[Job No] = [Materials Requested].[Job No]) INNER JOIN [Materials/Orders] ON [Materials Requested].[Materials Requested ID] = [Materials/Orders].[Materials Requested ID]) ON Orders.[Orders ID] = [Materials/Orders].[Orders ID];

I have a table that lists classes available (tblCourses); one that lists class dates (tblDates) and another that lists employees (tblEmployees). I have a fourth table that combines that data into classes taken by the employee (tblTraining). I have a form to input the employee's training with combobox fields for the COURSETITLE and CLASSDATE. I want the CLASSDATE field to only display the dates available for the specific class that was selected. How do I do that?

What I would like to do is create a list box that will only display the information from another form that is related to the current form.So I have a form call Equipment Catalog and that form is related to Equipment features 1 to M relationship and the Equipment Features is related to a Features form M to 1.
So what I want to do is display all the related equipment features in a listbox that is related to the current PK of that form.So if there is only one feature on one form the list box will only display that one item however is there is 6 features on another it will display all 6.I have been trying SQL and Queries but I still can't get it to work.

I have a list of class sessions. To help with maintaining attendance, each session has its own roster. I just need to add a functionality so user can make sure the attendance roster is synchronized with the past sessions and future sessions in events of last minute additions/drop or updating names/contact infos. The sessions are related to themselves as below:
ClassID PreviousClassID
1 Null
2 1
3 2
4 Null
5 4
So therefore to propagate the changes into all sessions how would I instruct the query to look for each related ID then checks if it's also related...
I'm thinking I may have to use VBA to do what, but I hope that can be done with a append query.
Thanks!

I'm trying to create a system where if I enter data into one field it will automatically appear in the corresponding field in another table. For instance if I enter the values 10,12,15 into a field called QID in table A I would like this to appear automatically in a field called QID in table B. Both tables are related and I have enforced referential integrity and 'cascade' options but this still doesn't seem to allow one table to automatically update another. My ultimate aim would be to have a form that you filled in data for the field QID once that then propagated to both Table A and Table B.

Hi im stuck on filtering a combo box (i am using an sql query to populate a combo box with a filtered selection, this is in Access but im after some design sanity checking). I have users who can be assigned a category. Jobs can be assigned a category and also have a list of people working on that job (in the JobDetails table). I have the following tables:
Categories Table:
CategoryID (PK)
Description
Users Table:
UserID (PK)
Username
CategoryID (FK on Categories.CategoryID)
Jobs Table:
JobID (PK)
CategoryID (FK on Categories.CategoryID)
JobDetails Table:
JobID (FK on Jobs.JobID)
UserID (FK on Users.UserID)
Then in the job details when listing users for a job (many users can be for one job) i would like to only show the users which have the same category as the jobs category. Is this possible? i tried the SQL below for the lookup column field JobDetails.UserID but it doesnt work:
SELECT Users.ID, Users.Username, Users.CategoryID
FROM Users, Jobs
WHERE (((Users.CategoryID)=[Jobs].[CategoryID]));
All the tables are linked with relationships but my SQL isnt so hot!
Any ideas as to how i would do this and get it working?
Even if it can be done, is this even recommended? I can see funny conditions happening if the job details category changes or the users category changes then even if they are existing in the job details list they will not be shown? Even so, i would be interested in the above to know how it is done (if possible).
Thanks in advance,
Chris

This will be a definate newbie question but here it goes.... I am new to Access and fighting my way through building a database to learn. I have broken my tables down to as normalized as I am willing to go, mabey a little further than needed. So now I have several tables that are related. I need to know how to make a form update several tables at once and prevent the user from having to mess with the autonumbers that are created. Here is a sample of my tables:
All Primary Keys (PK) are autonumbers
tblStaff
StaffID PK
StaffTypeID FK to tblStaff
FirstName
MiddleInitial
LastName
SSN
AddressID FK to tblAddresses
tblStaffTypes
StaffTypeID PK
StaffType
tblAddresses
AddressID PK
AddressTypeID FK to tblAddressTypes
AddressLine1
AddressLine2
CityID FK to tblCities
StateID FK to tblStates
ZipID FK to tblZips
tblAddressTypes
AddressTypeID PK
AddressType
tblCities
CityID PK
City
tblStates
StateID PK
City
tblZips
ZipID PK
Zips
I now know that I may have taken the normalization a little further than needed but I have it done and would like to use it if I can.
I want a form where a user can add a staff member with all of their information on one form (name, ssn, and address) without having to deal with the autonumbers or needing to do it in a certain order to make it work. I also don't want excessive use of combo boxes (state is OK). So far I haven't found a way to do this, please help.

I need help. I am not sure if this is a form issue or a logic issue i have a db for tracking students the classes they take and their notetakers for classes. Each class is most likely unique to each student but sometime there are multiple students in each class that need a notetaker and there should only be one notetaker per class. I have 3 tables and they are all linked through a unique iD called CRN (number).
I am looking for a way to add a student to a class and create a class at the same time in one form. I am trying to limit the redunancy by adding a class each time and then adding a student to the class.
Any suggestions would be great. I have gone through 10+ redesign and am just at a loss on how to accomplish this.

Hi
I was wondering how to create a form which is using data from three tables, the data in the tables does not have any relationship setup as they are not related to each other.
When I use the wizard and I select the three tables, Access starts complaining about the fact that no relationship has been setup...
Please help,
Thank you,

I am fairly new to Access and have no formal training on this program, just a lot of trial and error. I have a database with 4 tables. They are tblEmployees, tblCourses, tblDates, and tblTraining. The key for each was an autonumber that is EMPLOYEEID, COURSEID, DATEID, and TRAININGID.
tblEmployee lists pertinent information regarding an employee (name, serial #, shift, etc). tblCourse lists all courses that are available for an employee (course name, #hours, required attendees, type of training, etc).
tblDates lists all available class dates and times for the courses in tblCourses and has a lookup field for COURSEID and COURSETITLE from tblCourses.
tblTraining lists all the training scheduled for and completed by an employee and has a lookup/relationship with tblEmployees for EMPLOYEEID and EMPLOYEENAME.
It also has a lookup/relationship field with tblCourses for COURSEID and COURSETITLE. Finally, it has a lookup/relationship with tblDates with lookup field/relationship with DATEID and CLASSDATE. I have successfully created a form where the training can be added to an employee (frmTrainingUpdated) and it has a subform (frmTraining) with all classes for that employee in a multilist at the bottom (from a query of tblTraining). The subform also has a field for whether the training was completed and then the hours are credited to the employee (txtCredit).
The problem comes when I try to add all of the credited hours for a single employee in a separate field. I am trying to create a field somewhere on the form that will total all of the hours for all of the completed classes for the one employee on the form. I have tried to list the data for the textbox as =DSUM([txtCredit], tblTraining, WHERE (EMPLOYEE=Me.Employee)) and only get an error message displayed in the textbox. I tried to do a totals SUM on the query and it only gives me the individual hours for each class on the same line for that record.
