Setting To Allow Duplicate Company Names In A Contact Management DB
Jun 22, 2005
Hi,
In a contact management DB I want to be able to record the addresses of a number of contact people and braches of the same company. In other words, a company has several branches and I want to record their different street addresses. What settings do I need to specify in the field "CompanyName" or elsewhere?
Another question is how to set a Text box, especifically "CityName," so the name of the city fill out the text box when I start typing the first letter of the city name but without using a predefined list of city names.
The charity that I volunteer at has a web site through which they receive donations.
Most of the COMPANY names that they receive through their website are JUNK.
I would like to have a system to delete duplicate company names:
A = first programmatically delete all company names that are GOOGLE and this will remove about 60% of their spam B = next group all Duplicate Company names, which will be removed manually
I'm new to this forum so if I ask something stupid please forgive :)
I want to do something like the contact management database which is offered by microsoft for download.
I played a little with it and my problem is I copy-pasted the "calls" tab and on the pasted tab when I browse throug the different calls the call notes field below wont change / update. I thought there is maybe a macro behind it but I looked at every macro and did not find anything appropriate in my opinion.
It is maybe only a minor but I can not figure it out,
Thanks for any help in advance,
Leslie
PS.: I uploaded the database to rapidshare : http://rapidshare.com/files/1305209/Contact_management_database.mdb
I need to customize the sample Contact Management DB (CONTACT) that comes with MS Access 2000.
I removed the field ‘Region’ in the ‘Company’ table, in the ‘Company’ form, and in the ‘ContactAddress’ query, respectively. Now, when I try to access the ‘Enter/View Contacts’ form through the Main Swithboard's button, it shows a small warning windows asking to ‘Enter Parameter Value’, referring to "Company.Region." What did I wrong and/or should I do to correct this problem?
I am trying to add a command button to my main menu to open the contact names as a datasheet, I have changed the properties on the contact names form to datasheet as well as changing the properties on the button to the below:
Private Sub Command48_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "Contact Names", acFormDS End Sub
at first after I saved it, the button did nothing. Now after a bit of playing around (probably not a good idea) I have a new message that states:"The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Ambiguous name detected: Contacts_Click.To add some additional information, in the vba sheet above the code i wrote above it says:
Option Compare Database Private Sub Contacts_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "Contact Names", acFormDS End Sub
Private Sub Contacts_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "Contact Names", acFormDS End Sub
I have a firstName text field on a form and a Surname Text field. on the Event AfterUpdate i have this code:
If (Not IsNull(DLookup("[FirstName]", _ "Employee", "[FirstName] ='" _ & Me!FirstName & "'"))) And (Not IsNull(DLookup("[Surname]", _ "Employee", "[Surname] ='" _ & Me!Surname & "'"))) Then MsgBox "Someone already exists with the same name! Please check for duplicates", vbCritical, "IPDMS" Me.Undo End If
I am trying to Check the table "Employee" to prevent duplicate personnel from being entered.
My code at the moment is preventing any duplicate surname, its not combining it with the FirstName.
i.e. any person with the surname "Summers" cannot be entered twice even if they have different FirstName.
I have incorporated a search form (previously posted on this forum) and it is not cooperating when there's a duplicate name on the listbox. There can be more than one, say, John Smith on the database. In order to differentiate between two John Smiths, I need to be able to see their date of birth, where they are and who assessed their work.
So, I type the name John Smith on the search box, list box shows me all the John Smiths in the database, but only shows the first John Smith's details on the relevant fields on the form. What I would like to do is to be able to click on each John Smith's name on the listbox and see their details on the relevant fields. Attached db is Access 2000.
Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance :)
I want to stop duplicate entries from being entered on form. I have read through the thread , however I am totally confused as it seemed to be v high level complex queries. I am looking at:
Preventing duplicate entries to be entered
It should show an error "Saying entry already exists" Do you want to check,edit or add new...
I am working with an orders database and want to build a mailing label query that will not print duplicate labels.In the query I have the customer address book and the orders table. I know how to create the query to filter the year I want but how do I add the customer information as to not duplicate the customers and waste labels?
Example:
Order Date Year: ([Order Date]) Last Name Orders Addressbook
I want to be able to bring up all sales for 2014 but have no duplicate last names.
I have a form with several data fields on it. I also have a button on the form that allows the user to duplicate a record . The reason for this duplication is so that if there will be an additional client record for the same customer, but only one piece of data will need to be changed, it's easier to copy the record and then change the one field.
However, I am getting the following message:
"some of the field names you tried to paste don't match fieldnames on the form"
and then not all data in all fields gets duplicated.
I need to figure this out, but am going nuts with it. If anyone has an idea or two they'd care to toss my way, I would be happy.
My company rents equipment to our customers. I am looking for a db to track our stuff. There are three possible locations of everything. Warehouse, employee trucks, and Customers. I assume that warehouse can be added to the employee table. I can set up these 2 tables and one for our equipment list, but the hardest thing I am having with is with the table for transactions(I believe it should be a table), this needs to allow batch transations, because typically more than one piece of equipment is moved at a time.
I will need a report that will show each equipment id number in a customers home from date to date (date it was placed and date it was removed), one that will show a list of all equipment locations on a given date, and one more that will show equipment that has been in a customers house for 5 days or more so I can verify that it is still there, becuase equipment typically should never be with a customer for more than 5 days.
Right now I am using excel, but its not working well. I would greatly appreciate some help! The attachment only has the info I need for the 3 tables I mentioned above that I know how to do, and my best guess at what the transaction table should look like.
I have a database that controls donations for a Charity. There is to be a sister charity added to the database and a lot of the previously created objects can be used to provide for the new Charity. My idea was to create a "company" ID and label the categories of the donations. I could then use this company ID to identify to whom the data captured belongs.
I have used the switchboard manager to enable navigation, in this I have a ONload event procedure that requests the Company ID (1 or 2). That's as far as I have got.
How would I get Switchboard to open each form (some being based on queries - a couple direct on the tables) and filter the data on the company ID?
If there is a better way, please enlighten me!! :)
Hello All, I've searched and searched and can't find anything but it might be because I'm not sure what to search for.
Here is what I'm trying to do. (I'm simplifying this to make it easier to discuss) I have a table that looks like this: Company Date Sales 1 5/5/07 $1,200.00 1 6/5/07 $4,200.00 1 7/5/07 $2,200.00 1 8/5/07 $4,300.00 2 5/5/07 $1,200.00 2 6/5/07 $4,200.00 2 7/5/07 $2,200.00 2 8/5/07 $9,200.00 2 9/5/07 $1,200.00
I need to run a query that grabs the last 3 months for each company.
So the correct output from the above table would be: Company Date Sales 1 6/5/07 $4,200.00 1 7/5/07 $2,200.00 1 8/5/07 $4,300.00 2 7/5/07 $2,200.00 2 8/5/07 $9,200.00 2 9/5/07 $1,200.00
Any help would be appreciated. I'm sure this has been asked in the past so even if you could help me with a keyword to search for, I would be greatful.
I need to create a database of the info of a few hundred companies. Each company (food producers) specializes in various product categories, not just one. This is my problem/question: each company entry should then have a possibility to have as many product categories as needed. How can I do this without using "free text" fields? The website user should obviously also be able to search the db - by clicking checkboxes with the categories maybe?
(+Also: When the admin user needs to add the info of a new company (with, say, 9 product types) into the database, what kind of an SQL clause I need to INSERT INTO the db? For example if the product categories where laid out as checkboxes, and the user would just click the ones he wants.)
Result I get which I don't want What I want is the last table Order2.OrderQty Order2.Company Order# Order1.OrderQty Order1.Company 3 abc AAA 3 abc 3 abc AAA 12 abc 7 Oop BBS 8 Oop 12 abc AAA 3 abc 12 abc AAA 12 abc
Through word of mouth I hear that you can creat a link that can go from Access and link to the personal company system. Is this true? If it is, is there a standard code to use?
I've been asked to come up with a method of tracking outbound calls for my company. This is a new job for me and I'm aiming to impress.. but I'm a touch out of my element so I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel here.
I've found this starting point: [URL] .....
But I'm having difficulty conforming it to function the way I need it to. Basically, I want the applet to
-store the employees name -store customer names that were called -a checkbox for whether or not an appointment was set -a textfield storing an appointment date/time [if applicable]
-four radiobuttons to select which area of the business the call pertains to
The employees would submit new values everyday, and ideally I would like the data to be accessible in a real time line graph.. I totally assumed this would have been done and redone before and that there would be a plethora of templates to choose from online, but for the most part my search has been fruitless and the only solid lead is the one posted above.
I want to consider ways of sharing an Access database within our company. This could be web-based via our intranet or done some other way.
I understand that Microsoft's preferred way of sharing via an Intranet is to use SharePoint. However, as we don't use SharePoint (we use Atlassian Confluence) the cost of that route would be prohibitive.
Any methods of sharing an Access database across, say, 20 people? Simultaneous read/write access would be required but in reality the usage will be low, so performance is not really an issue. I would like to consider web-based or other methods.
I have chosen Access 2013 simply because we use Office Professional 2013 and Access will be familiar to some developers. We could use a different product. But I would certainly prefer a tool that supports RAD design of forms.
I am trying to count the number of times a client has engaged with our company. I have a company table, a reservation table, a rapid prototyping table and a project table. There is a one to many from the company table to each of the other 3 tables as can be seen in the attached picture.
Is there an easy way, in a single query, to list unique company names that exist in 1 or all of the 3 tables?
Just a question, I am developing a database for the company I work for and being new to Access, I have successfully made a login menu when the database starts up. The employee selects there name and begins data entry. Is there any way to log the activity of each employee, which records they inputted, date and time and so on?
