Same Field In 2 Tables But Using One Form Same Field

Nov 24, 2011

I have created a number of tables and I am now moving onto forms, but struggling to find out how I can get data captured in one form to populate into 2 tables(if that is even possible).

Table 1- Inventory

Ok, so I have a INVENTORY TABLE where all the stock items, amounts and calculations are done. In this table I have a field called "Shrinkage" so putting in an amount in under "shrinkage" for a particular stock item would deduct it from the total stock amount.

Table 2 - Stock Shrinkage

I created another table, STOCK SHRINKAGE TABLE with the following fields - ID; Date; ProductName; Quantity; Reason; User ID.

So those are my 2 tables, I have created a SHRINKAGE FORM, using the same fields in the STOCK SHRINKAGE TABLE.

What I would like is when a user enters an amount under the "Quantity" field in the SHRINKAGE FORM, I want that exact amount to be stored in the STOCK SHRINKAGE TABLE under "Quantity" and also in the INVENTORY TABLE under "Shrinkage" for that particular stock item.

Tables :: Auto Populate Field Based On Answer Of Another Field In Same Table

Feb 28, 2013

Within my table if Field 1 has an answer of Self (from drop down), then, I would like Fields 6-12 to auto populate; however, if Field 1 does not have an answer of Self, then leave Fields 6-12 blank.

I am not quite sure how to lay this out. I am using Access 2010.

Tables:
* Players - PlayerID, Fname, Lname, position, goals, assists, etc (all details regarding a player)
* Position - Positons (Table containing positions eg: defender. Data is selected in player's form as a combo-box)
* Competition - Competition types (Cup, League, Friendly. Data is selected in Match's form as a combo-box
* Venue - similar to Competition table
* Opponent - Similar to above two tables
* Match - MatchID, Competition, Venue, etc (form corresponding to table attached)

Forms:

I have a numeric field (long integer) in a table. I've set the format to fixed. No matter what I set the decimal places to, auto, 0 or 2, when I enter a value of 0.71, it displays as 1.00

In my form, I've also set the field property to fixed, but it displays the value as 1.

Tables :: Autopopulation Of Field From Another Table Based On Another Field Criteria

Dec 5, 2012

I have a main table which is autonumbered on unitid, I have another table which is linked via the unitid which holds items purchased for the main table, so the second table is a subform of the suppliers and will have multiple entries of the same unitid. What I would like to do is when an item is entered into the second table, check the main table to see if it exists, if it does populate the unitid field with the unitid from the main table, and if not exist create a new record in the main table with the next unitid number.

This in essence is what I want, bearing in mind that the tblinvoices is a subform and the tblmain is not open.

If ([tblinvoices]![Unit] = [tblmain]![Unit]) Then
[tblinvoices]![UnitID] = [tblinvoices]![UnitID]
End If

Tables :: Automatically Fill Field Based On Keywords In Another Field

Dec 3, 2013

I'm trying to complete a database.

It is to manage details of pupils with additional support needs, and plan for the extra arrangements the school will provide for assessments.

It has 2 Tables

tbl-PupilDetails
-ScottishCandidateNumber primary key (Unique number which identifies pupils to the exams board)
-Forename
-Surname
-DOB
-YearGroup
-Class
-NatureOfNeed (memo)
-EvidenceOfNeed (memo)

tbl-SubjectLevelArrangement
-ID Primary key, Autonumber
-Pupil foreign key to tblPupilDetails
-Subject
-Faculty
-Level
-Arrangement

I currently use forms for adding new pupils, and updating pupil subjects/arrangements/levels.

I also have forms to search for specific pupils, and to create lists for faculty heads showing which pupils are taking subjects within their faculty and the arrangements we expect to provide.

I use the forms to run queries, which can then output to reports for printing.

Where I am currently having an issue is the faculty field in the tbl-SubjectLevelArrangements. (If I didn't have to report to faculty heads I would just leave it out, but management will insist.)

Currently I have a form with dropdowns for adding subject, faculty, level and arrangement manually. This is acceptable for the subject, level and arrangement because they are completely interchangeable and dynamic throughout the academic year as pupils may drop down a level, or change the type of arrangement they require.

However as faculties are inextricably linked to subjects, I want to remove the possibility of human error. i.e. when a user (me) chooses either geography, history, or RE, then the faculty will always be Humanities, likewise if the user chooses French, German, or Spanish, then the faculty can only be Modern Languages etc.

I'm convinced there must be a very simple way to ensure that the faculty field prefills based on the limited keywords available in the subject field, but I just cannot figure it out.

Modules & VBA :: Loop Through Tables Updating Field In One From Field In Other

Feb 6, 2015

I have 2 tables, "Counselors" and "Appeals". There are several names in the Counselor table but it is not a fixed number of names (rows) usually around 7. There is also some variable number of records in the Appeals table, could be 0, could be 50, depending on the day.

I need to, in a round robin fashion, assign the counselor names one by one to the records in the Appeals table. How to loop through the 2 tables and update the name field in the Appeals table with the name in the Counselor table.

Tables :: Calculate Value For A Field Based On Value Of Another Field - Statement

Dec 30, 2012

I'm trying to calculate a value for a field based on the value of another field, [Field1] has a value list of 28 choices I want [Field3] to take that value and multiply it by the value of [Field2]. I'm using an Iif statement and it sort of works. I looks like this:

IIf([Field1]=1 Or 2 Or 3 Or 4 Or 11 Or 12 Or 13 Or 21 Or 22 Or 28,[Field2]*0.06,IIf([Field1]=5 Or 6 Or 14 Or 15 Or 23 Or 24 Or 29,[Field2]*1.1,[Field2]*2.1))

I receive nor errors but it will only return the value of [Field2]*.06 no matter what is selected in [Field1].

I'm sure I'm missing something and there is probably an easier syntax to use, but I'm at a loss at the moment.

Tables :: Set Up Email Field On A Form

Apr 15, 2014

I have an Email field on a form. Is it possible to send an email by clicking on the email address? Now, I only have a vague familiarity with VBA as I've taken an Access Intermediate class. We were just introduced to it at the end of the class, so you may have to walk me through it like a 6 year old. I went to a site that said a macro was needed in either the After Update, After Delete, or After Insert. With that said, I know where to go, but I don't know exactly how to write the code. I have outlook set up on my computer and am operating Windows 8.1 and Access 360.

Linking Info From 2 Tables To Same Form By A Field

Jan 25, 2007

I have two Tables, Contacts and FlowMeters.

On the Flow Meter Form Info is listed specifically for each Flow Meter.

I would like to bring some of the information from the Contacts table on this form.

For Instance if I am on Meter 1T-02 I would like for it to associate that meter number with the name of the customer thats already on the form, then look up that customer's name in the contact table and bring over that customer's contact information.

I built this database over a year ago and it has been a long time since I have worked with the design of it, therefore I am a bit rusty.

Please help if you can.

Thank You

Search Multiple Tables From One Form Field

Feb 18, 2006

Hello,

Stuck on a problem and was wondering if anybody has a possible solution. I currently have the beginnings of a database setup that uses a search field on a form to find a reference listing using a part number input by the user. It finds the part number, and then displays all the information about it on another part of the form. My question/problem is, I now want to expand this database to multiple specialties, all with different parts in their respective listings, so they would have different tables. The tables would be the same format, just different information. No one table would ever contain the same info.

Q: How would I set up a form to search for a unique part number over multiple tables, and return that parts info?

It works great for one table, but I am stuck on the multiple tables.

Thanks in advance!

1 Form, 2 Tables, 1 Field To Multiple Fields

Jul 1, 2005

Please be kind, i have little VB Knowledge, and wish to expand my learning on this topic.

I have a form that updates information on one table, and has a subform displaying info from another table.

the subform is filtered, and only shows data from what is specified from the filter of the main form.

If I update information on the main form for instance,
field 1, (the data on the subform has the same data so there is the relation), how do i update the subform by only updating the mainform? can this be done through some VB or something?

if you folks out there can give a Smidget of info on which VB codes i can use i can pretty much figure it out.

like Docmd.write something?

Tables :: Populate Value Of Field From Value Entered In Another Field?

Oct 25, 2012

automatically populate the value of a field [Industry] in a table after a user has entered the value in another field [IndustryCode] in the same table. The [IndustryCode] and "Industry" are stored in a separated table [2012IndustryCodeTable]. I have tried using DLookup and cannot get it to work.

Ex.

|IndustryCode|Industry|InvestigationDate|
|001 |Car |
|002 |Plane |

How can i get the [Industry] to populate the information from the [2012IndustryCodeTable] once a user enters the code into the [IndustryCode] field in a table?

Adding A Field To A Form Using Multiple Tables (And A Combo Box)

Jun 15, 2006

Hello!

It's been a while since I've asked a question here, but I can't seem to figure this problem out.

I am setting up a form using data from 4 different tables, all related, and I can't figure out how to add fields that I didn't initially add during the wizard set-up. I used the wizard because it's easier for me to do that and then go in and make the changes I want to make.


When I get data from just one table, all of the available fields from that table are in the "Field List" no matter what fields I chose to include in the wizard process. That's good. But when I get data from more than one table, only the fields I initially chose in the Wizard process are showing up in the field list. I can't figure out how to add a new and different field from one of those tables.

The way I "solved" this problem the first time was to start over, creating my form from scratch--but now that I've done a lot of work, it just occurred to me that I will need to add 2 more fields. (I actually don't even have those fields in a table yet, but I will add them later.) So, this will be an ongoing problem. Since this form will get much use, by several people, I don't want to have to re-create it every time I want to change something.

So, is this possible? How can I add another field?

Also, while I am at it... A combo box was working beautifully to look up specific records when I was gathering information from only one table. It isn't working anymore.

Thanks in advance!

Forms :: 2 Tables - Auto Populate Field In A Form

Oct 7, 2014

I have 2 Tables with following fields

Table [APM]: apm_id, apm_owner, apm_values
Table [DATA]: apm_id, serv_name, serv_place, serv_choice, serv_role

Both tables are joined with 1 to 1 relations based on apm_id as both of the fields are same. The table [APM] is pre filled with data. The idea is to list data from [APM] and collect data from user to be saved in [DATA] based on the info from [APM].

I created a form which list all the fields from both tables. The fields from table [APM] are only for displaying data and created a combo box based on [APM].apm_id to display the fields by chosing an APM ID from the drop down box.

A user adds a record and moves on to second record, completes the second record. Now if the user wants to list the first record by chosing the APM ID from the drop down box it only populates the fields from table [APM] but not the fields from table [DATA] which the user just added. Infect the fields related to table [APM] changes, but the fields from table [DATA] stays the same.

How ever if I click on the small arrows on the bottom which lets you cycle through records than it populates all the fields from both tables correctly.

How can I fix the issue so that all the fields would populate based on APM ID selected from drop down box.

Form Event (Before And After Update) Copy Form/Field Value To Another Table/Field

Aug 17, 2006

Group,

I thank you in advance for considering this inquiry.

From within a Form.field (based on a master table query), I desire to trigger two events; one before update and one after update.

This function will serve to document specific form.field value changes to a "log" table for review prior to being committed back to the master table.

What I'm looking for are functions, which I can use in a Macro or VBA code to facilitate a field read and copy before change and a read and copy after change triggering.

I'm sure this is absurdly simple.
