Request Form, No Idea How To Set Up

Jan 17, 2005

I am thinking of adding a Request form to my database so that if the user wants to add a code to the system, they could fill out the form click send and i would then be able to retrieve all the requests via a report.

I have designed the form to something like what i am after...

i have a few issue's here:

A)

i have set up an option wizard so that user can select if this is a new code or a failure mode request

if the user selects "New Event Code" i want the the text box and label for Eventcode Description to become visible and all others to become inactive.

i will explain what happens if the user chooses "Failure Modes" in a minute.

B) I have no idea what is the best method to sort the following section, if you look at my form at the bottom (Highlighted in red) i need this to be a continuous option as the user may wish to add more than one Failure mode to an Event Code.

C) going back to my options if the user select "Failure Modes" i need the bottom section to become active.

D) If that was not bad enough i have no idea on how to store this in a table.


Definitions:

Event Code ---> Top Line Code

Failure Mode --> Is the Event code description but broken down further

Any Advice or help would be much appreciated

All the best

Andy

Baxter....table/form Idea...

Aug 18, 2004

Bax, I am still dealing with that problem of getting my statistics form to show. Is it possible for me to set it up so that when a new player is added into the player information table that the statistic table will populate itself with the [Uniform #], [FirstName] & [LastName] and default 0's to all statistical fields?

Just a thought....

Password Request On Form?

Apr 14, 2005

i have a curious and annoying problem :eek:

I have a Access 2000 db, been working fine for 6 months+ and suddenly today, two out of three forms give "not a valid password" error on trying to open them.

There has never been a password set on the db, nor on the forms - and the same user who used it successfully yesterday now gets this error, along with any other users.

What has happened and how do i fix it? All ideas welcome!!

Complicated Form Request

May 4, 2006

Each time a person enters a part number into the form they will have an option to pick and load other forms. Looking to have 1 form with a cmd button that when pressed will go out and retrieve an object or objects (spreadsheet, word document and etc) and then place in the OLC’s and rename and store this object on a drive with the name of the part number and form name
I want the templates never to change or be updated. Only the objects store on the drive after the command button is pressed or the Ole object is double clicked can be edit.

I've tried hyperlinks, do not want to have operators do save as, also I would have to have all the forms entered for each part number prior to versus just using templates and having them be stored.

Example of save forms names
c:mydocuments racking12341234-Template-1
c:mydocuments racking56785678-Template-2


Not even sure this can be accomplished. See attachment for a visual idea.

thanks dmh

Modules & VBA :: Setting Up Certificate Request Database - Attach PDF To Form

Aug 11, 2015

I have been tasked with setting up a certificate request database. I have an Access 2032 FE & SQL 2012 BE. I need to store PDF documents from all our branches.

I have been working on this for the past 3 working days and I have seen a great deal about saving the file path to the database vs saving the actual document in the DB. The documents would be located on each users computer.

I have a Form with all the information that is required by the certification department. On the form is a button (Called InsertID(ID in this case is the persons Identity Docuement)) and the button is linked to a table called dbo_CertificationSupportingDocuments. The table is referenced to the Main Certificate Request table.

The dbo_CertificationSupportingDocuments table is structured as follows:

Code:
[CertSupportingDocID] [numeric](18, 0) IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[CertificateRequestNumber] [numeric](18, 0) NOT NULL,
[RequestBlob] [varbinary](max) NULL,
[RequestFileName] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
[RequestFileExtension] [nchar](10) NULL,
[RequestFileMimeType] [nvarchar](50) NULL

When I click the button I get a Run Time error 3075 "Syntax error (Missing operator) in query operator.

The code I am using is:

Code:
Dim fd As FileDialog
Dim strFileWPath As String
Dim FileNoExt As String
Dim FileExt As String
Dim StrSQL As String
Dim db As Database

[Code] ....

I have been looking at this code for so long that I cannot see what is wrong.

General :: Assigning Alphanumeric Request ID Based On Form Dropdown Selection

Apr 7, 2015

I'm working on a database to organize and streamline the process that the manufacturing facilities in my organization use to request removal of defective product and raw materials. Currently all of the facilities send me their requests on individual excel spreadsheets via email, which are difficult to keep track of and report on since nothing is consolidated. What I've done is create a form in access that mirrors the current spreadsheet being used, so all the facilities have to do is enter the info into the access form rather than excel. The use of access is more for my benefit than theirs though, as it will keep track of the requests as well as make reporting on the request data much simpler.

When the facilities fill out the request form and select their facility number from a drop down list, I'm wanting them to be provided with a "Request ID" so that they may keep track of the progress of the request. The request ID should be a sequential alphanumeric value that includes the facility's three digit facility code, the last two digits of the year, and the number of the request. An example would be PL1-150001. The kicker here is that I want each facility to have it's own set of sequential numbers. So for example let's say I receive four requests in one week, three from facility 1 and one from facility 2. They should be assigned request ID's such as PL1-150001, PL1-150002, PL1-150003, and PL2-150001.

A Really Cool Idea....If It Is Possible

Jun 12, 2006

Hey everyone,

I have a crazy idea that I think would be very cool if I got it working, but have no idea where to start. I have a database that is broken down into a front end and a back end, and there are about 10 users who use it off and on throughout the day. This database has an entry form to enter new records. I am wanting to put a text box or a label on that main form that would turn green if the database was in use by another user, besides the one that was currently looking at the form. It would be red if there are no other users accessing the database. Is this even possible? Any suggestions or input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris

An Error I Have No Idea How To Fix....

Jul 27, 2006

Yesterday I redesigned some of the forms in our database and all was working fine. It works fine on every pc in the office except 1.

On his pc he gets the following error when opening the database:

"An error occurred while loading form_ContractChargessub. Do you wish to continue?"

If you choose yes the database will open but it doesn't work. I have no idea how to even begin to solve this problem.

I did notice that he was running Access 2003 and everyone else is on 2002. Could this be the problem?

Thanks for any help you can give.

Help With Thoughts/idea's On Doing This

Oct 14, 2004

Looking for some advise and help. I think an array will be recommended and if so, please help with code on how to do this.

I am trying to track prescription (Rx) dates (RxOutDate) going out to medical professionals on a particular order. There can be mulitple Rx going out so there will be multiple dates of when those Rx went out. What I would like to do is have the earlies date posted. ie one Rx went out on 10/13/04 and another goes out on 10/14/04. I would like for the 10/13/04 date to show. I'm using a continuous form to display all Rx's per order, on frmRx. I'm trying to display the date out on the form containing the order (frmOrder).

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. If an array is suggested. Please help with code on how to it. I've never written one so I would definitely be in the dark.

Thanks ahead of time,
Shane

Jul 5, 2005

hi ,

see below for the current code to find a duplicate surname (this works Fine)


now that ive properly thought it through what i need to do is insert a surename and if (by Chance) when i insert the Date of Birth if this is the same highlight it as a duplicate record. However if these people are twins then i need the option to insert the duplicate record.

any ideas on how to go about this, see code below.

Private Sub Text24_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)

Dim SID As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
Dim rsc As DAO.Recordset

Set rsc = Me.RecordsetClone

SID = Me.Surename.Value
stLinkCriteria = "[Surename]=" & "'" & SID & "'"

'Check StudentDetails table for duplicate StudentNumber
If DCount("Surename", "tblData", stLinkCriteria) > 0 Then
'Undo duplicate entry
Me.Undo
'Message box warning of duplication
MsgBox "Duplicate Name " _
& SID & " has already been entered." _
& vbCr & vbCr & "You will now been taken to the record.", vbInformation _
, "Duplicate Information"
'Go to record of original Student Number
rsc.FindFirst stLinkCriteria

Data Organization -- Bad Idea?

Sep 19, 2005

My primary key for my database a WorkOrder Number. The issue is that sometimes problems span a selection of WorkOrders. For example, if we get a lot of bad parts, 3 different WorkOrders might be affected, and each may have different resolution to the effect.
To speed up data entry, I've had a request to make a button that copies the all the information from a current record into a new one.

If much of this information repeats, it this a poor way to handle this data?
Currently it is pretty straight forward with ostly one->many relationships, and this would make things pretty complicated with a bunch of many<->many relationships.

Just want to know ya'll opinions.

Help Implementing A Neat Idea

Jan 13, 2006

I’m working to ever-improve a Help Desk-like database and I got this idea for “templates.” That is, a quick way to fill out the as much of the ticket form as possible when common issues come in.

So I’ve created a table (Templates)that mimics the structure of my ticket table (Incidents). I’ve gone into Templates and put the values I want automatically entered in each field and I’ve added a combo box and a button on my ticket screen. The combo box is populated, from Templates, with the name of each Template.

My problem is that I have no idea how to make each field on the Incident form populate with the values from the Template table.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Most of the data for this is in a spreadsheet now I know I can import it where I want it. The main concerbn is that the main piece of information would be the Job Address.

My Stupid Loop Idea

Jul 6, 2006

I've got 20 checkboxes which i need to do the same thing but individually.

If IsNull(DLookup("[question 1]", "qryQuestions")) Then
chkQuestion1.Visible = False
Else
chkQuestion1.Visible = True
End If


I tried this:

Dim loopy As Integer
Dim tmpquest As String

For loopy = 1 To 20
tmpquest = "question " & loopy
tmpCheck = "chkQuestion" & loopy
If IsNull(DLookup(tmpquest, "qryQuestions")) Then
tmpCheck.Visible = False
Else
tmpCheck.Visible = True
End If
Next loopy

tmpquest works.
tmpcheck doesn't.

I tried dimming tmpcheck as lots of things but no luck.

Any help?

Opinion On Design Idea/possibility

Aug 23, 2007

Hello Everyone

I am looking to build and Overtime tracking form and have been pondering on the design of it. Here is my idea and not sure how I should go about doing it (straight forms and tables or queries). I would like to select my employees in a combobox and have their information autofill the remaining fields and/or add new ones. Additionally have fields that I can input any overtime occurred which would be stored in a seperate table but displayed in a sub-form in datasheet view. These fields that were just filled out with the overtime information would clear everytime the add record button is hit.

I know that sounds like alot and sure I can muddle my way through that part of it, the big question I have is do I need a seperate table for every employees overtime? Or is there code/query that can select the records of the selected employee and display the information that pertains just to them?

Has anyone come across or posess a sample database similar to this? If not can someone point me in the right direction for example code and tutorials?

I look forward to hearing from everyone on this.

Thank You

Jaz

Good Or Bad Idea? Text Box In Main Table Or Other?

Dec 1, 2004

I would like to add a textbox to my main form so that users can enter in some extra data regarding the job they are working on. This text box should tie to the current record of the main database, tableJobLog.

Is it best to keep this textbox as a field in the main database, tableJobLog? Or should I create a separate table (perhaps tableJobNotes) with just this text field and link the two tables?

I would think that having it in the main table would make the table grow considerably in size after some time.

If creating a separate table is better, I would need some guidance on how to do this.

Thank you very much.
