Hello All,
In my table, I have some records that are duplicated (aside from the primary key).
How can I select only one record from each set of duplicated entries? (There may be more than 2 of each of the duplicated records, but I only need to pull one of them...doesn't matter which one.)
i.e...Like a 'Find Duplicates' query, but only returning the top 1 primary key from each duplicated set.
Thanks,
Sarge.
I have a subform containing a list of Funds and attributes such as Asset Type, Fund Manager, etc.
Currently, I have a textbox, where the the control source is set so that it will be updated with the Asset Type from the subform.
I also have an unbound combo box that contains a list of Asset Types queried from a table via row source, where user can select the Asset Type.
What I would like is when a record is selected from the subform, the Asset Type is selected on the combo box as a default value. User can select another Asset Type if required. How can I do this?
I have one field AccountName in customer table and another field AccountID.
In my form I would like to select from the combo box AccountName during data entry and then have the AccountID automatically update in the Account ID field.
I am working on a database and i have notice after making a form that when i enter a record using a form if i enter incomplete data on the form access automatically save that record and generate a id for that record.
For example I have a table that contain
StudentID,StdName,FatherName,DOB,Adress,Phone
And I have created a form for that table that also containing these fields.
Here I want to do that on the form I want a "Save" button , and the purpose of this button that when I click on this button then MS Access Save the record and then generate the ID for that record and if i close my form without pressing "SAVE" button access do not save that incomplete record.
I have a database I am using to record financial transactions. I have a transaction edit/entry form that uses combo box lists to select the different segments of my 32 digit account numbers. The issue I am running into is that when I enter a value value in the first box/field the form jumps to the very first record.I then can use the navigation buttons to get back to the last record, and all the subsequent boxes/fields work fine without jumping to a different record.

Currently, I am only able to select the 1st record at the top of the dropdown list to appear in my subform. But I would like to select any record from the dropdown list and have it populate my subform.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have qrys that show current info and also repeated info. A request has been brought to me to now count how many times the repeated data has been repeated.
The data is updated daily, so the repeated record would need to increase in the number of it's occurances by 1 each day.
Any guidance on how to accomplish this is GREATLY appreciated! :)

I am trying to build a query which will find the costs from a set of tables where the client has costs.
The client has a cost on booking a fee, he has a hotel room cost and a room facility cost.
My query brings up what I want but each result is repeated 3 times.
I don't know why, can someone correct me please.
SELECT DISTINCT Addresses.ID, Holiday_Bookings.Initial_Cost, Room_Facilities.Cost, Rooms.BasicCostPerNight
FROM ((Room_Facilities INNER JOIN ((Hotels INNER JOIN Rooms ON Hotels.HotelID = Rooms.HotelID) INNER JOIN Stops ON Hotels.HotelID = Stops.HotelID) ON Room_Facilities.FacilityID = Rooms.FacilityID) INNER JOIN (Routes INNER JOIN WalkTypes ON Routes.RouteID = WalkTypes.RouteID) ON Stops.StopID = Routes.Arrive_In) INNER JOIN (Holiday_Bookings INNER JOIN (Groups INNER JOIN (Clients INNER JOIN Addresses ON Clients.ID = Addresses.ID) ON Groups.ID = Clients.GroupID) ON Holiday_Bookings.ID = Clients.ClientID) ON WalkTypes.Walk_TypeID = Groups.GroupID;

I am really new to using access and I have a massive table 16000 or more entries. What I need to do is take this example data :
VPIAddress
001:99_97_AO
001:99_96_AO
001:99_0_AI
001:986_51_CI
001:986_50_CI
001:985_51_CI
001:985_50_CI
001:984_50_CI
001:983_51_CI
001:983_50_CI
(This is just a tiny fragment of the total data)
The 001: to the first '_' is the important bit this is defining a "Router" what I need to do is total up how many '001:*_' there are, not including duplicate numbers.
Firstly if I understood this (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=92001) post correctly I need to have all the VPIAddress the same. If this is correct is there a way to get access to delete the data after the first '_' ? (I would of posted in this tread but i didnt think that would be right, if im wrong mods move the post :) )
Secondly will the info in that post help me to reduce the data into this :
VPIAddress
001:99_
001:986_
001:985_
001:984_
001:983_
So that I can then see how many Physical "routers" there are
If any one can help me and tell me that my idea will work then tell me how to do it id be extremely happy!
Even if any one says that wont work and gives me the correct way to do it and does a virtual "Clip around the Head" and call me a Daft Bugga I would still be happy because I wouldn't have to trawl through the entire 16000+ entries deleting and modifying.
I'm trying to set up a query where it returns me only the items that are repeated.
ie...I have a table that has clients that are one time clients and other that are repeated. Each client has a client number. I would like to get only the clients whose client number appears more than once. Is that possible?
I have a pair of combo boxes which are n a frm and work fine.
The code is:
Private Sub cboSubjectSelector_AfterUpdate()
Me!cboOneBookSelector.Requery
Me!cboOneBookSelector.SetFocus
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Current()
Me!cboOneBookSelector.Requery
End Sub
I want the combo boxes to be repeated five more times so that the same options are given within the same form. Every time inset a copy of the same combo box get the folowing error message:
'Microsft Access can't find the macro 'requery''
I am ot sure what I need to do nrder t remove the error message. I did not create a macro called 'requery' tis part of the code above.
I have alos tried to recopy the code above and then retnamed the cbo in the form adn then modified then copied and modified the code to see if that helps - it doesn't. Any ideas - please help.
I have a form that simply lists the items:
DEPARTMENT_NBR and DEPARTMENT_NAME
In the table: DEPARTMENT_TBL
When I edit the field DEPARTMENT_NBR and it is in error (must be between 01 and 99) I want to put out a message in a MSGBOX and SetFocus back on the DEPARTMENT_NBR.
I coded the MSGBOX with vbokonly and then DEPARTMENT_NBR.SetFocus, but after the message displays and enter is hit for the ok the cursor jumps to the DEPARTMENT_NAME on the current line. Is there a way to get the SetFocus to work properly on repeating items like this? I can never seem to get them to perform the same as they do on non-repeating items.
Thanks for your help.
HERE'S THE EXACT CODE:
If IsNumeric(DEPARTMENT_NBR) = False Then
If DEPARTMENT_NBR <> "00" Then
MsgBox "DEPARTMENT NUMBER must between 01 and 99.", vbOKOnly
DEPARTMENT_NBR.SetFocus
GoTo DEPARTMENT_NBR_EXIT
End If
End If
Also, is there a way to look at a specific item in a list like that? IE. I want to reference the 3rd row's DEPARTMENT_NBR. Thanks.
I have an activity report which has multiple entries for the same date by club members. I have managed to build the database:
2 Tables
2 Queries
2 Forms
1 Report
Which list attendance's and activities by Member and Date and Prints each one starting on a fresh page..What I wish to do is count each Club Members total days attendance. I have tried using the Totals button but I don't know enough about expressions to get it to count multiple dates as 1.
Everywhere I have looked can tell me how to count between dates, around dates, workdays in a year etc. etc. etc. but none give me multiple dates the same counted as 1.
I am running repeated calculation queries of different data, but its is not working to well. I have one query listing the total number of hats made from wool. I then have a second query of that lists the total number of hats made from wool and are black. I have third query that calculates the percentage. I have many different hats of many different colors, and i am doing the same three queries over and over. However, the calculated field for percentages does not update. E.G. I have 100 wool hats, 10 wool,black hats, 10%. The next round: i have 100 wool hats, 5 wool green hats, its will still show me 10%, as its is still calculating based on the previous data. how can i go about this most efficiently and why is not updating?
View 1 Replies View Relatedmy search form has a combo box with "make"names. i can add new makes via a other form. so the combo box needs te run via a query so that it can list new makes (so that i can also search them). but, since some makes repeat them selves in the table, sometimes up to 15 times (see atachment 1), the combo box will show 15 times the same make. i just need it to show the make 1 time, all of the makes just 1 time. only way i can do that is to type them my self (see atachment 2). but then new makes that are added later wont be shown in the list.
so: i want that the make is only shown once in the list, and that the list is updated with new makes that are added later. how do i do that?
note: a "make" E.G = Philips, Apple, LG, Microsoft, creative etc (just for the lesser skilled english readers like me )
all help is welcome
Right now I have a flat database with too many unnormalized fields. I am trying to figure out how to break down the repeated "QuantityOrdered" 1 through 5. "QuantityReceived" 1 through 5.
"RequestedItems" 1 through 5 and "Price" per unit 1 through 5. I'm not sure if they go into the same tables, if they are each listed 5 times and if in different tables how many instances 1 or 5 to show each as seperate and how to create a relationship between them.
hi guys,
some background on my data:
i have a table that holds Electronic Gift Card details (those plastic store gift voucher cards). it holds all details of every transaction for every card, so the card number, activations, redemptions, dates, times, transaction values etc. are all recorded in my table.
i have attached a small extraction in a spreadsheet.
a single gift card can have multiple transactions against it throughout its lifespan. there are sometimes error transactions, and i need to write a query that finds these error transactions (they are all flagged with a "1" in the [reversal flag] field, so that bit is easy) but then also then the next transaction that occurs on that card. this subsequent transaction will not be flagged with a "1", but is a reversal of the error and will have an "802" flag in the [transaction type] field.
each transaction is date stamped hh:mm:ss, but i don't know how to write a query that will
1) find gift card number that has a reversal code of "1"
2) find next transaction made on that gift card based on transaction time
3) check that subsequent transaction type is "802"
4) select both transactions
5) repeat for entire table
i can't seem to get the desired result just using a straightforward query, and i don't know much (or any!) VBA in access.
does that make any sense at all???
cheers

I have two subforms on my main form. Both subforms are very similar and comprise two fields each. Both have an After Update event set on one field to enter the current date into the other field.
In one form I can update a record, press F9 and everything is smooth - I can proceed to somewhere else.
In the second form, if I update a record, the date is entered in the second field, but with black background, and I have to focus on the field, press Enter and then Esc (in the right order) to be able to proceed. I have tried many things to stop this as it is slowing data entry (just when I am starting to feel abit sleep deprived with an early start ahead).
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

I just recently started programming in MS Access. I have some forms with lots of combo boxes. I do not want users to type anything in the boxes, but to only select stuff that is contained in the drop down menus.I found this useful code and I am using it in my combo boxes on the key down event to do what I want.
Private Sub cmb_a_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
If KeyCode <> vbKeyTab And KeyCode <> vbKeyReturn Then KeyCode = 0
End Sub
Private Sub cmb_b_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
If KeyCode <> vbKeyTab And KeyCode <> vbKeyReturn Then KeyCode = 0
End Sub
Private Sub cmb_c_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
If KeyCode <> vbKeyTab And KeyCode <> vbKeyReturn Then KeyCode = 0
End Sub
The issue is because I have so many combo boxes, is there a better way to rewrite the code so I don't have to repeat the same code in 20 places?
I have built a contacts manager based on an Outlook export (I know I can link the two programs, but I wanted to customize the contacts a bit further). I built the database in a way that phone numbers, addresses, etc. allow for multiple entries for each person under the same column using a foreign key. The only difference is a field called "Type" which designates the entry for Home, Work, etc. The issue I ran into is when I queried the data I get multiple entries for the same record. As you are all likely aware, Access repeats the data in a query for each different case. For example if Bob Jones has a personal and work phone number, Access will show the results in a query like this:
1. Bob Jones 555-555-5555 Personal
1. Bob Jones 555-222-2222 Work
2. Jerry Smith 555-111-1111 Personal
If I kept the data in Access it wouldn't necessarily be an issue. However, I want to be able to export the data in an excel file. How do I get Excel to return the data so it looks like this:
1. Bob Jones 555-555-5555 Personal 555-222-2222 Work
2. Jerry Smith 555-111-1111 Personal
Hi,
I would like to be able to abort a record input using code rather than the esc key on the keyboard.
Is this possible, if so can anyone help with the correct code or method etc.

Hi guys,
What would be the best control source to use for my sub forms detailed below:
I am designing an Asset Management System. Each the main Asset Table "TblAssetMain" has child tables "TblAssetType", "TblAssetDetails", "TblAssetEventLog".
When a new asset is created, the AssetMain form will have subforms for these three child tables (linked by Asset_ID = Subform![Asset_ID]).
Can I use a query of the child tables for data entry or, if I set the control source to the actual tables, can I limit the number of records in the child tables for each record in the Asset Main table to "1".
Basically each Asset will have one record in AssetMain and 1 relating record in each of the child tables i.e. you cant have more than one AssetDetail record for one Asset.
Did do a search and found the following code but not sure whether there is a way without using code?
Code:
Private sub Form_BeforeInsert(Cancel as Integer)
If Me.txtCount > 2 Then
Cancel = True
Me.Undo
Msgbox "Please return a book before checking out a new one", vbOKOnly
End If
End Sub
Hi all,
I created a form for entering employee skillset in Accounting.
I have set up three fields - one for Primary Skillset and the other two for secondary skill sets -
The skillsets are -Payables, Receivables, General Ledger, Purchasing etc.
How can I ensure that a user will not enter duplicate values in the three fields.
That is a user will not enter for examply "Payables" in the Primary Skillset, and Secondary Skillset fields.
I tried creating a multiple field index but it does ont appear to work.
I will appreciate all the help.
Thanks
I have a form that opens up and fills in all of the Orders Table when it opens.
I then have a subform that is used to fill in the order details.
Currently if they open the form and then close it, it creates a record in the order table. I want to be able to delete this record if no information has been filled into the subform?
