Report Creation
Apr 18, 2005
I am attempting to create a report that the user can specifiy a contact type which is selected from a drop down list and the report will only show those records. The name of the report is "Contact Listing bu User Supplied Contact Type." I also have a form called "Report Contact Selection."
Right now I am getting only contact type of "recruiters" to appear when I run the report even when I select a different contact type. As you will see when you look at the "contacts" table, I do have records with different contact types.
I am including a *.zipped version of this database and if you should need any additional information, please feel free to ask.
Thank you.

I have a form which produces an SQL query based on a main table and a number of lookup tables. This query is displayed on the screen and then can be executed or produced as a report. If it is produced as a report the user mentions on another input screen the columns of the main table to be printed and the sort orders. A couple of other parameters needed for the report such as its title, date, font family and font size are also given. Then the report should be automatically generated. For this purpose I am using CreateReport and CreateReportControls methods. But the parameters of these two methods are not very clear. I need a report header, a page header and details of the records one on each row. Do I have to use the Create ReportControls method three times? First one only once, Second one on each page, third one on every line? Any example of such a report or point at an example?

I am wondering if anyone can recommend shareware or free ware Utilities/code to make Form & Report Creation/Edits easier?
I'm thinking of something like Cub Editor http://www.peterssoftware.com/ce.htm or SmartForm+ http://www.aadconsulting.com/smtfrmplus.html
but alas .... I can't do anything that will edit the registry (company politics says Access and it's Wizards is plenty 'perfect' http://www.dbforums.com/images/smilies/frown.gif maybe I will convince the powers that be but not in short time)
Also the code (or forms / reports built) need to work on Access 2000, 2002 and 2003. or well-commented on how to modify as I'm only modest with writng VBA code.
Any ideas? Thanks!

I have a table that is a list of all of my events. Each record of events should have a child table that list all of the things that happened at the event. When a new record (event) is added how can I have a new child table created and linked to that record. Also I have a blank table to serve as a template for what each child should look like. How do I make sure this occurs? The child tables can have the same name as the index. I am just using numbers 1- for the index with 1 being the first event and so on?

hi there,
i also need help in my form creation. as you can tell from my post, i am clueless.
anyways, here is what i want to do.
i have an input text as:
title1
name1
address1
these will grow based on how many people information one needs to enter. so say if i have 3 people i should have:
title1
name1
address1
title2
name2
address2
title3
name3
address3
and so on
the thing is i only want to show input text 2, 3, etc when i have several names to enter.
so what i want is, a button, such that when i click on that button, it creates input text 2, 3, based on the number of people i have.
i know how to do this easily with html/javascript, but i MUST do this in ms access, so i hope somebody can help.
TIA

I created a new table for my database that contains three fields. A first name, last name, and a full name field. Is there a way in the definition of the table that I can define the full name to =[TrackComposerFirstName] & " " & [TrackComposerLastName]? I'm not sure where I would define a formula in data elements of a table.

i have a table..
staffdayid
date
timein
timeout
notes
i want to have a feature in my database like the following..
these are basically day to day clock in times for my staff..
is there a way that everday.. a new record will be created..
eg.. on 04/06/06... i turn on my pc for the first time.. and when i view the timesheet form.. a record for today is automatically created.. then throughout the rest of the day, this form will be displayed..
when i turn on my pc on 05/06/06, the database will know its a different day, so it creates a new record for today... then i can just move back and forth throughout the days to see the details..
if i then turn my computer off for 5 days, then turn it on at 10/06/06, it still should have made records for 6,7,8, and 9th June, but they will be empty, and the record im shown is for the 10/06/06,
how can i make this?

Hello,
I have created a table containing jobs that need to be done from my team (IT production). Each time someone start or finishes a job, he must fill a box that updates a specific row in the table. I want to log the time of that action.
Any ideas of how I could set this up in Access? I have tried the Now() function in the Default Value of the field End Time, but this is updated everytime I refresh the table

In a field “NAME” I have “Adam Smith”.
From this field I want in a QBE window (not in VB) to make two new fields “FIRST NAME” “Adam” and “LAST NAME” “Smith”.
In Excel there are the functions FIND and SEARCH with which I take the number of the gap “ ” (5) between Adam and Smith and with the functions LEN, RIGHTS and LEFTS I have a result.
What could I do in Access 2003?

I been tasked with a project to be written in access which I am rather unfamiliar with, web design is more my area.
For part of the project I need to copy some pricing fields from a pricing table to a new record at the point that the new record is created. The new record is created when a 'new form' button is clicked.
What I would like to know is what and where I should trigger the copy query from and what function should I be using?
cheers

Hello all,
I need some advice for an ASP.NET web application I am working on. I am trying to automate the making of a new table within a database and then have all records from an old table migrated to the newly made table. I would like this task to run from the scheduled tasks on the server in the way of an .exe
The new table would be created on the first day of every month, taking the name of that month. I was thinking to use an empty template table which already has all the fields, and then making a copy and renaming it to the current month.
After the new table has been created I need to copy all the records from the table that represents the previous month over to the new table that represents the current month.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks

why is it that as soon as you fix one problem another one needs dealing with :mad:
OK, the problem i have is that i have a BE/FE configuration database in a multiuser environment. I have built all the tables and the relationships in the BE configuration. In the FE configurations i have built the main forms to input data. It has no come to the point where i have begun to create the queries to allow reporting and data searching. And this is where i have a problem. I am trying to create a simply query and i do mean simple (at the moment i simply want 2 fields from 1 table and 2 fields from another table) no calculations or anything i just want it to display the data. I have tried creating this query numerous times and i keep getting the same error.
"The wizard is unable to open your query in datasheet view, possibly because another user has a source table open in exclusive mode. Your query will be opened in design view"
the above is the error i get when i use a wizard to create the query, after getting this message and going into design view i try to view the results in datasheet view and get the following error "Type Mismatch in expression"
If i dont use a wizard and create it in design view, when i go to view the results i get the second error message everytime.
If i create a query from 1 table only the query works without errors, but i always get errors when i have more than one table in the query.
Also i am the only person with the database open so therefore it is total impossible for the database to be open by another user in exclusive mode.
Anyone know what the problem might be or how to fix. Your answers will be very much appreciated.

Is it possible (and logical) for me to create a table with a calculated field from 2 other fields in the same table? Example; I have a long time field (mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss) aka StartTime, and a long time field EndTime. I would like to subtract the StartTime field from the EndTime field to get the total time elapsed, but in hh:mm:ss format. I can get it in hh:mm format, but I really need the hh:mm:ss format. Any Ideas? :cool:

I currently have a database where users input new parts into a database using a part form. When they put in the part type, a tracking number is automatically generated. I would like a folder to be created for each part where we can store pictures and a report. How would i have it create a report to a certain area using the tracking number as the folder name? I also want to be able to upload pictures and eventually save the report in there but creating the folder is the first step.

My Database consists of three tables and a linking table, tbl graves, tbldeceased,tblmemorail and tbl memorialtablejoin.
Having completed my tables and checked that the relationship data gives the correct data I decided to embark on a simple form to display all the data on a single form.
So I used the create Form option, selected add existing fields. All of my tables are shown in the fields list.
From tblgraves I selected plot and grave Id, from tbl deceased forename and surname and from tbl memorial the inscription field.
The form was created but on examination I realised that my total records was shown as 12000 records whereas tble graves and tbl deceased has 39000 records and tblememorial 17000 records
So I created the form using just tblgraves and tbldeceased and that shows my 39201 records.
If I leave form view and go back to design view and add the inscription record from tblMemorials I see the message box as per the attachment.
Not every grave or deceased has a memorial but I would expect to see my 39000 records
I've also attached a screen shot of my relationships...

I have two tables; Customers and contracts.
I would like access to automatically create a record in the contracts table when I change the status in one of the Customer Fields from prospective to Customer.
The two tables are linked using the Customer ID field.
Is this possible?
