General :: Can't Change Required Field Property

Jul 16, 2013

I am trying to change a field to be required. I know where it is...

(Navigation Pane > Design View > Select field I want required > Properties Pane > General Tab > set Required property to Yes)

But I don't see that General Tab at the bottom of my page.

The closest thing I have to properties is on the right-hand side. It opens when I right-click, then hit Properties. It displays...

Format | Data | Event | Other | All... but that's it...

Reports :: Field Not Listed To Add To Report

May 8, 2013

I have created a report but discovered that I need to add a couple more fields.

I created a query for the one field and the other field I added to the existing queries.

Neither field is listed in the "add existing fields" drop down list. The fields have been added to the corresponding forms and tables.

How can I add these two fields without creating a whole new report?

Required Field If Enabled.

Aug 7, 2006

After some suggestions, I have a form with combo boxes, the combo boxes are set to enabled "no", but become enabled by an after update command on another field.

The after update command works perfectly, however once enabled I need to ensure data is selected, as opposed to leaving blank.

Any ideas on the best/easiest way?

Required Field In Form

Nov 3, 2004

I have a form that users update, but they continue to leave this one field blank and I have to go behind them to enter this date.

Field Name: OrigProcDt

This is a date field

I don't want this field to be a required field in the table, because it won't stop it anyways.

The record is already added by the clerical staff, the other users just update the record when it's time to.

The problem is that they need to enter a date in this field before leaving the record they are updating.

Any help would be appreciated.

Tables :: Set Default Value In Field Property?

Feb 13, 2013

My access db is used to compile payroll time records bi weekly. The Work Hours table is used to hold two weeks of time records then they are archived to a history table. Each week has its own week ending date. I have been updating the default value of the week ending manually in the table field property in the table's design view. Is there a way to have a macro update this default value?

The current process is, open table in design view, update week ending default value, enter payroll time then change default value again for second week ending, enter payroll time. Report hours to accountant, archive table to history table.

Only The Month Required From The Date Field

Nov 8, 2005

Hello everyone

I am wanting to pull out only the month part from a date field, 11/10/2005.

In the query I have made an expression to pull the month, eg 10 for October.

I need to convert this number of the month to the Title of the Month.

I made a combo box on the report based on the Expression and in the row source put

1,"January", 2,"February",3, "March", 4,"Apri", 5,"May", 6,"June", 7,"July", 8,"August", 9, "September", 10, "October", 11, "November", 12, "December"

Unfortunately it still comes out with the number of the month.

Can anyone tell me please where I am going wrong.

Thank You in advance.

Required Field Error Message

Feb 26, 2005

I have form "Project Log" for my table "Orders". One field "OrderTakenBy" ( text field) is a required field in the table.

In the field properities of OrderTakenBy in the Before Update event I have used the following code:

Private Sub OrderTakenBy_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)

Dim strMsg As String, strTitle As String
Dim intStyle As Integer

If IsNull(Me!OrderTakenBy) Or Me!OrderTakenBy = "" Then
strMsg = "You must enter your name."
strTitle = "Field Required"
intStyle = vbOKOnly
MsgBox strMsg, intStyle, strTitle
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub

When I first tested it, after trying to leave the field without making an entry-it worked great. Now it seems to have stopped working, I get no message when I leave the field empty.

Need Help With Required Field - Different Character Lengths

Sep 15, 2005

I need help with a required field that has different character lengths.

I have an input mask that covers the first 7 characters, however, the users are still entering the incorrect policy numbers, I need to put a stop to it.

I have 3 different policy number lengths involved, 7, 8 and 9.
They are different kinds as well, alpha, alpha/numeric and numeric.

Example below:
P###### - 7 characters
02###### - 8 characters
02M##### - 8 characters
NX####### - 9 characters
HX###### - 8 characters
HXL##### - 8 characters
HXM##### - 8 characters

My question is this -- do I have to create 7 different forms or can I program it to accept only the certain (policy#) characters above. Or can I create a query to insert into my form.

Any help is appreciated, Thanks as always.

Forms :: Required Field On Subform

May 30, 2014

Code:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)

' This procedure checks to see if the data on the form has

THis code avoids a form being closed if a required field (with tag "*") is not filled. How can I expand it to fields on a subform?Another "issue", how can I personalize the error messages :

2) Multicolumn index causes an error message "Ca't save because of duplicate value in primary key, index ...
