I am trying to build a query or table that will pull all Employees
in the ICU and include the required inservices so that I can
track who has attended and who has not.
This is a huge database I built for the entire hospital.
I need a relationship between the two that won't require me to
have EVERY employee record (all 850 of them) in the related table
so that I can pull just the ICU names.
Hi i have a small access program set up and it all works except one item, there is a sub table that we would like to add in information relating to the order number etc:
order number 1
sub table would have j number 12345
allocation 5
and j number 56789
allocation 25
order number 2 (new record)
could have j number 148
allocation 1
j number 2143213
allocation 12345555
j number 86868
allocation 34
etc
then when you move between each order the information in the table will show the specific information relative to the order number at the moment when you move from record to record it clears the fields but enters the information into a table
hope this makes some sort of sense
any assistance would be gratefully received
best regards
kev p.s.if it would i could attach a copy of the database
Hi all!! I've inherited a new db that was created by folks fresh out of school. I've been looking through it, checking to see how they built it, trying to scope out any neat and nifty new tricks they've used, before something goes wrong and I have to work on it.
They have a table that displays grouped records, and I'm not sure how they did it.
For example: In the PRODUCTS table, the first record is for [Product Type] "Sticky Stuff", [Product Name] "GooGoo", [Manufacturer] "XYZ Co.", etc, with a + sign in front of the record. When you expand the record, you get what looks like a sub-table listing all the transactions having to do with "GooGoo".
While trying to figure out how they got this effect, I checked out the Inventory Management sample db that's available on-line. They also have this type of grouped records in a product table.
Is there a simple explanation of how this is done, or do I need to invest some serious study time?
As always, thanks for any guidance you can give me.
How do we create a subtable in access. When you open a table. First column come with + singn. When you click the + sign you get another sub table. How do we creat that table. What is the purpose of this table?
Ok, there is one main form and a subform which is linked directly to a table. A VBA routine checks entries and flags certain rows for errors. We want to highlight specific cells that are out of tolerance.
Been playing around with the Me.ActiveControl.BackColor = vbYellow
But if this can be done to a particular cell on a table, and if this can be done using VBA.
I'm new to Access and am having trouble designing a database that houses application details.
All applications have a list of unique wrap id's but have different tables housing different details for these wraps.
I have a main table which is for data entry and lets me input whether or not a piece of software is Vista compatible (yes/no) etc.
I also have a field in this table showing which analyst is responsible for researching compatiblity of an application.
I have another table with different regions i.e. london, manchester etc that has the region/city listed as the field heading and then contains a list of wraps used in that city under the relevant field.
My main entry form is linked to the main data entry table that holds specifics for an app, name, vista compatible etc. This form is used for data entry. I want to add a subform on this form which shows a list of all applications, in table format, but I want a drop down list so I can select an analyst name / region so that analysts can update details for a specific area assigned to them. In the table I want all of the records based on this criteria to be displayed.
I guess I need to make a filter button on my subform but do not know how to do this. I put in a button control for apply filter by form but then dont know what to do.
I'm new to access and don't know much VB - e.g. the only thing I can do in VB is a make a message box that says hello world on the screen.
Any help is sincerely appreciated. Apologies for the Essay.
I have a sub table that acts as a revision history for the items in my main table. I've just finished uploading all the records into the main table and now I want to insert one record into the subtable for each record in the main table to start the history with the record creation.
The sub table looks like this:
tblRevisions - RevID (auto Number / primary Key) - RevDate (date of revision) - RevName (Who made the revision) - RevDesc (What revision was made) - RevAuthorized (Who authorized the revision) - RevLabel (Foreign key to the primary table)
The info I want to insert is:
RevID - Auto Number RevDate - 11/27/2013 RevName - 3 RevDesc - "Added Label to database" RevAuthorized - 1 RevLabel - (One for each record ID in tblLabels)
I suspect that I want to start with an insert into statement, something along the lines of:
Code:
Insert into tblRevisions (Revdate, RevName, RevDesc, RevAuthorized, RevLabel) Values ("11/27/2013",3,"Added label to database", 1, ?)
I'm not sure how to indicate that there should be one label for each Record in tblLabels or that revLabel value should match the ID from tblLabels though.
All seemed to be working well, however, I noticed that all my subtable records in the database are exporting with each Primary table record. In my output, I'm looking to see each primary table record followed by one or more subtable records from a one to many relationship.

I'm sub-novice when it comes to Access I'm trying to get calculated data in a field in a sub table to autofill in a field in a related table. So all of the data in 'total hours' column is calculated by the variable inputs in the 'hours' fields. Once there, I want it to feed itself into the 'total hours' field on the main table. Is that possible? Also - the 'total hours' field in the sub table won't calculate anything unless a value is placed in EVERY 'hours' field in the same sub table (e.g. 0).

ok I work a lot on databases but have recently been asked to set up an access database for my team. We are a marketing team within a large insurance company and need a small access database for MI and project management.
I have made a start on this and going well so far but there are some things I need it to do that I dont know how :P
Ive never messed about with Acess before so bare with me :P ok so this is what im looking for, any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have set up various tables for look up wizards for some of the menus on another table I designed for the raw data entry.
I need two tables, two forms - one table for very basic generic data such as
- Job Number - Description - Business Unit - Owner - Due Date - Completion date
I then need to drill down into this to add more information, so its basically two tables on top of each other with co-dependencies.
So for example one of my team enter a new project at the very basic lvl, they have a job number, they know what business unit it is for and they know the date its due, as time goes by and work is done on the project I want them to be able to click on a button that takes them to another form where they can enter information that is linked to the original information.
So they search for job number 00000 and come up with the above data on the first form, I want them to then click on 'Project Information' button and be taken to another form that has a lot more stuff on there, like a description, complications, notes, links to documents etc etc. I tried to do this linking two tables together but it doesnt work as the two forms/tables are not co dependend and are irrespective of each other.
Does this make any sense ? and does anyone know how I might make this work ? Please let me know if I am not clear and I will try to explain as best I can
I would also like to change the form 'theme' aswell and have my companies logo transparent behind the data fields etc, anyone know how to do that as I only have the option to use the standard themes.
Is it possible to set which VBA reference boxes are ticked each time a database is loaded?
A problem is created when a person amending the database to the person using it has different setups and so some of the references show as "missing" and so compile errors show on loading.
I made on option box on a form called Status. The 2 radio buttons are marked Open = 1 and Closed = 2. Is it possible to open a query based on what the user selects. In the query I want open to stand for Is Null and closed would be Is Not Null. I know this sounds unusual but it works in the query they way I want it to. Is this possible? Thanks...
I tried various searched and came up empty handed.
I have a user that is using a database that is on a network. When she enters records using her computer and exists the database, they don't save. If she goes back in, they aren't there. However, if she uses another computer, they save.
I can assume that it's not user error because it's the same user on two different computers.
I am confusing myself more and more as i read on normalization and queries and everything else. I am trying to create a database for parts that our company sells and am having trouble deciding how to lay out the tables. I figure I should use the part number for the primary key as it will not repeat. from there though, i have a problem, each type of part has different fields nessesscary to decribe its attributes. for example, one part number may be for a box and its describing fields might be brand, width, length,load rating, and height. but another part number might be for a circuit breaker which would have completley different describing fields like brand, amperage rating, voltage rating, connection type, and trip type. Should i create 1 table for everything even though many fields would be blank depending on which type of item it was or should i create seperate table for each type of item with only the required fields to decribe that item?
i have a subform within a form. when the form is loaded, i would like the subform to automatically be ready for a new record instead of shown the last record entered. i have tried various macros ( not VB ) but to no avail. the form shows the persons info and needs you to add a certain piece of info. this would be the only reason for the form.
how would i go about setting focus on a tab control? i have a tab control on a form with 6 tab pages. i am on page 4 ( bank ) and i have a button to add a bank account. this opens up the add form and i add the account. i then requery the form and the tab goes back to page 1. how do i set the focus back to the previous opened tab?
i have having such trouble setting up some tables in a new db, and am wondering if someone could give me some tips as I really don't know what I'm doing (I am new to this).
I have one main table, called Client Information. The PK is CaseNumber. I also have 11 other tables. The PK in each of these is called things like CasedetailsID, witnessinfoID, etc. Each of these tables contains the CaseNumber field (supposed to be from the Client Information table). The Client Information table contains the PK from each of the other tables.
The way I have the relationships set up at the moment is that the Client Information Table is linked to each of the other tables via the fields called casedetailsID, witnessinfoID, casetypeID, etc. The relationships are all one to many (the 'many' side being on the Client Info table, the 'one' side being on the related tables). There is obviously something incorrect about the way I have the tables set up, however, as when I try to enter data into the form, although the data gets stored in the individual tables, none of my queries or reports seem to be working (ie, I try to run a report, but it doesn't show any data).
any tips or advice regarding a good way to go about setting up tables and relationships would be very much appreciated.
17412 Hi, I am trying to set up a database for organizing Track and Field meets. I'm a newbie to a lot of the Access capabilities. I've attached a PDF of what I'm looking at doing for my Access tables. Some of the tables I think I have right. I don't know how to organize the meets, events, days. Should I have a table for each event? Can you look at my tables and give me advice on problems you can see? In the end I would like to enter the event results by race. Some races could have 10 or more heats. There are also field events that have different number of attempts depending on the meet. There are different track meets with different events each time and the order in which the events occur changes from meet to meet. Any help or advice you can give me would be great. Thanks!
I feel really stupid for asking this, but I am so stressed at the moment, I can't concentrate!
I have a database that stores land locations and information relating to it. In the database, I need a form that asks 13 questions and answers are given in drop down boxes (about 3 answers to each question). Each of these answers relate to a score, which I want to be able to show automatically.
What I would like to know is how to set the table for it. This table has to use the ID from the land locations table (which is sorted by the way).
Please see the attachment for a simple design of what my 'boss' wants it to look like. The form for this table will be a subform on the main form for land locations.
Please can someone help me? I would really apreciate it :)
Hi, I have a table I am trying to set up a query. I got into the query and set up the fields as follows: Name, Address, Landlord, Lease Date, 90 Day Reminder, 30 Day followup.
I want to show all these columns in my query. I need to set up formulas for the 90 Day Reminder and the 30 day followup from the Lease Date field. The 90 Day Reminder is the date 90 days prior to the Lease Date, and the 30 day followup is 30 days after the lease date.
I am having trouble setting up the formulas. I did it in design mode, and I tried filling in a formula and when I tried going into the dababase mode, it asks for for a parameter. I am having difficulty understanding what to fill in for the parameter. I am not sure about the formulas either.
