I have started my own MS Access Hints and Tips Club (http://msaccesshintsandtips.ning.com/profiles/blog/show?id=948619%3ABlogPost%3A301) and in an effort to attract new members I am offering a free calendar form.
I haven't seen any other Calendar form (DEMO HERE) (http://www.viddler.com/TonyHine/videos/35/fullscreen)with the advanced features that my calendar form offers, so I hope it's unique. It also benefits from the fact that it is very simple to set up and use on your own form. All you have to do is add two controls a command button to call the calendar form, and a text box to receive date.
you use a simple naming convention: Command button named: "btnDOB" Text box named similarly: "txtDOB"
The "DOB" portion can be any text you like as long as both buttons have the same text, >>> "DOB" <<< Any way Have a look at the DEMO at least! (http://www.viddler.com/TonyHine/videos/35/fullscreen)
I am trying to sort data in a free from date filed without success. For example I have 1999-present, Jul 14, 2003-Jun 2004, then 2004-ongoing... Is it possible to sort them? Thank you very much. Debbie
The correct way is the following: Inc# 2546 ^ capital I, no space between "c" and "#" but a space AFTER the "#"
Then the 4 digit long number.I was thinking along the lines of trying to identify the number, removing everything else and then placing "Inc# " before it... currently we allow notes, which should be made like such: Inc# 2546 - Notes.however, people have their own method for this too (however most of them are at least after then incident number so that makes things much easier)another issue is on the same database, some manual requests also appear which have different entry format: RQ# GK034LW2052 but that contains a mixture of letters and numbers... so when identifying the request number... as long as I make sure that it is a number and not a string of numbers and letters, I should be ok..
I have a simple data entry form with drop down facilities on 2 fields. One of these fields incorporates a drop down list from a table but there are occasions when I wish to make a free text entry for the single record, but do not wish to add it to the drop down list.
I have tried to achieve this with a Combo Box but without success, although I am sure that I have read that it is possible.
Hoi!Basically, I've got a form:21250And as you can see, in order to select the right loan (Or even see the loan details, Nursery name, book name, author etc) you have to look in to the loan table and then remember the Loan_IDGO back into the delete loan table and select the right loan_ID from the combo box...most people will probably forget before they even get to the delete_loan form :')So, somehow i'd like to insert some kind of 'sub' table at the bottom of my form..which will list all the loans from the loan table..I've tried sub report/sub form.. but it kept updating every time i chose a record in the combobox..(Lets say i selected #5 in my combobox, the table would then only show #5) I don't want to do anything with it, just show the current loansIs there any way to do this?Cheeeeeeèrs!
Hi all, I have a table shown in a form, beside that table a textbox with a button. How can I multiply the numer entered in that textbox by the the number displayed in the table, and view the result in the same table?? Please help me as soon as possible?
Thanks in advanced and sorry for bothering you.....
I am fairly new to access, as i have been asked to put one together for my work.
In my database I have a table and one form, on the form is text boxes and if needed a 'X' is put in there, how do I change this X to word or sentence in the selected field in the table. I don't how to this or where to start?????????
I have a list-box(Category) and a 'ok' button on the form.
My OK button has the following [Event Procedure]: Private Sub OK_Click() Me.Visible = False DoCmd.RunSQL "Select [Barg Unit],[Medical Option],[Medical Coverage Tier] FROM RetireeCensus Group By [" & Category & "];" End Sub
First of all, is my syntax correct in the above codes? Second, what VBScript codes do I need to add in so that when I click the 'OK' button, a report or a table will show the query results from my 'Select' statement?
I managed to create a FORM that has fields that calculates basic additions/subtractions formula but for some reason the fields on the TABLE does not update?? Any suggestions?
i am trying to show the total number of records that are in a table.
there are currently 8 entries in the table 'applications'
now i would like to show this on a tabcontrol in a form. I have been told to use Dcount. I have read about this and tried this on my form but unfortunately its not working.
Can anyone show me an example of how i would do this.
I'm building a simple access database to be used in a factory. It's pretty much there now, in the sense that it does all it needs to do, but some things feel a little "clunky". One of these things is the page where new products are created.
When a product is created the user has to specify what raw materials it's made up of and that works great, there is a continuous sub form that lets the user just add a row for every raw material. Having it as a continuous form makes sense as there can be lots of rows or just a few, so it's flexible.
Currently though the labour/time on that page works in the same way. But it feels a bit silly as there are only 3 sorts of labour (at least currently, they might add a couple more later). The labour types are..
- Build - Finishing - Handling
My question is, how would I go about turning the existing continuous row-by-row subform for labour into a single form that just listed those three types of labour (read from my labour type table)? So that it just shows a row that asks for quantity of each available labour type.
Not all products have all types of labour but it would be fine to write a 0 in the labour table for (for example) Finishing against a product that for example didn't need Finishing Labour. Obviously with the current continuous form approach no row would be written for Finishing if the user didn't select that.
I guess I could hardcode a single form to show the three current types, but ideally it would be flexible, coping with new labour types when the users find they need to add them.
I have an append query that appends records to a table, and I have a form based on that table.
Users will click a button that will run the append query and then open a form for users to fill in remaining empty cells. How can I filter the form to show only the newly appended records?
I have created a form that searches a table to show certain criteria. I am having trouble with a part where the table uses a checkbox and I am trying to use a combo box on the search form to return the results based on is it checked? Yes/No or both. When I test it I keep getting Runtime error 3075 missing operator.
The sql I am using is below and when I try and see where it is going wrong it highlights the line.
Code : Me.Filter = strWhere
Code: Private Sub cmdFilter_Click() Dim strWhere As String Dim lngLen As Long Const conJetDate = "#dd/mm/yyyy#"
I created a navigation form on which I put a form call [frmAnimal Setup].
I then placed one combo box on the Navigation frm Header. I have bound it to its source and it actually queries the tbl and show the right info. However when I select one, it will not let me.
In addition, [frmanimal setup] will not allow me to select a breed although it does query the tbl and shows the right information.
I have a form with two tables referenced. I am using the form only to update one of the tables. I am using the other table to pull a reference field. When I add my second table using the query builder, it makes it to where I can't edit/add in my form. I assume its because of the SQL insert statement, but I don't see this statement and can't find where it is to edit it. How to have the form only update one of the tables, while just using the second table as a reference for a field?

Im after some free images for buttons, for my stock control database system. Can anyone recommend me some ood site to look at? Ive searched but have been unable to find anything really suitable.
According to Clint Covington, Microsoft intends to release the runtime and developer extensions for free.
My opinion is that it should ALWAYS have been free instead of slapping us Access developers with an extra cost so our users don't need to pay hundreds of dollars more to use our applications. I can't think of ANY other development environment that has this drawback.

When a customer makes a booking, all I need to do is check that there is less than 20 cats in the cattery for every day of the customer's intended visit range. This isn't the same as a car-hire system where if a car is out for one day during the intended hire, then the booking can't be made - it doesn't matter which pen a cat is put into, as long as there is a pen free for each day of their visit.
i.e. a customer wants to hire a ford escort from 1st-10th january but it is already booked for the 9th onwards - the booking can't be made.
a customer wants to put their cat in ANY pen from the 1st - 10th so it just depends on ONE pen being free for every day of this visit.
Any suggestions? My teachers are hopeless and I need to have implemented my system by 20th January!!! :eek: Thanks, Jayce
My problem: There isn't enough free memory to update the display.
I looked all over the internet about this error but without any success.
Facts are:
1. I keep getting this error anytime I try to Print or Print Preview or export to PDF an Access Report (same error for printing Forms and maybe other objects).
2. I received this error when using Office 2007 with the same mdb and also after upgrading to Office 2010.
3. The same mdb on any other computer works perfectly. I can do Print, Print Preview or whatever I want. This seems to be related to this laptop I am using.
4. Resources are not a problem on this laptop: 3Gb RAM, Paging: 1Gb on sys drive C and 2Gb on D. The other machines have less.
I have a list of 500 PDA users, spread over 7 offices. I want to keep an eye on what happens with the devices and their SIM-cards. As they are often swapped between offices and SIM-cards get lost. I am pretty sure that I don't have to re-invent the wheel. Do you have any idea of a free/shareware tracking tool for PDA's and cell phones ?
I have a table which lists all documents that refer to a certain entity. the table contains the file names and paths. I would like the user to be able to search for text inside these documents.Can I use Windows Search for that by using code? Is there any other way?
