Spelling Of Name In Table Affects Whether It Appears On Reports?
Mar 28, 2014
I have a simple dbase that shows names in a table as "Smith, John" for example. My query links two tables, and should show all names in the aforementioned table. However, certain names are missing. Here's where it get's weird - if I change the spelling of their name (Smith, J for example), suddenly they will show with the correct data. There are no common strings to the missing names, but on each, when I change the spelling, each missing name appears. I have made sure the relationship is joined to show all data in the "Names" dbase.
I have 2 table: - tblInvoice include Inv#, Type (Debit/Credit), InvoiceDate, ... - tblCharge: ChargeCode, UP, Qty...
I have created a qry of these 2 table. It works properly. I added a Number spelling function to convert Total amt to word.
The error has happned when I change anything in tblInvoice. Every time I run the report, the report reports error 13 Type Mismatch. When I run debug, it point to Sodoc = Round(Sodoc, 0).
It's strange. This Number spelling function only spells the number in the report why is it impacted (by the change of tblInvoice record)?
P/S: The following is the Number spelling function mentioned above.
======= Option Compare Database Public Solay(0 To 15) As String Public Donvilay(0 To 4) As String
I have a report that i can order through buttons on report or openargs. Is it possible to get a field that would count the number of time an item appears i.e., if I sort it by employee, it would count how many times each employee is on the report, if i sort it by TypeOfMalfunction, it would count how many times each appears.
Hi, I'm working on a database project for class and I need do an error search type: Example: Look for the name Kathleen but with various spelling possibilities (Cathleen, Kathlene, etc). How would i go about doing this? Any help would be great.
I have a label on a form with text including the word "generated".The funny thing is when I switch from Design View to Form View generated becomes genneerraat :eek: :confused: It's easy enough to use a different word but there's obviously a problem somewhere and I'm worried that Access might make a mess of other words too.Anyone have ideas what's going on here?Addition: No matter what words I use, the last 10 or so characters of the text in the label is changed when switching views. I have been playing around with the text a bit more and it appears that the character & is the source of the problem. When I delete the &s everything looks fine again. Anyone care to comment?
this is a re-post - can anyone help? I think this is an easy one for the experts out there!
I have a form called frmTshtExp which is bound to a query called qryTshtExpenses. Most of the fileds in the form are combos and text boxes bound to the fields in the queries.
However, the first combo is unbound. It is called cboProjectSelect and it filters the second combo called cboWorkstreamExp. This is done using a query called qryTshtWorkstreamExp which has workstreamID, workstream and projectID as fields.
The filter works fine. The trouble is that selecting a project from the first combo filters workstreams from the second combo for ALL records that are entered. In other words, no matter how many rows are entered in the datasheet on the form, they all have to have a workstream belonging to just ONE project. I want to be able to enter different workstreams belonging to DIFFERENT projects on each row.
I hope you can help. I've put in a reduced version of my db in the following location:
unfortunately, I didn't know how to disable the securities I've set up, so you need to log use the shortcut (after modifying the target location in it's properties) and use the word "forum" as username and password.
I have a form where you enter a Case number (Primary key) and EmployeeID (foreign Key), the employeeID must match a employeeID held in the employee table. Within this Case form, I have a subform called Account which has an autonumber Primary key called accountID. Each of these accounts will have a questionnaire. So I created the questions in the same table (account). So Q1, Q2, Q3 etc. which are Questions relating to each AccountID, one accountID can have one questionnaire.
What is working fine is I can enter an account NUMBER which is a field in my account table (which creates a new AccountID(autonumber)) and can happily check the checkbox, fill out the text fields move to the next record and the checkbox is unticked and text boxes are blank (default state) which is great as I want them to ready for new input (new accountnumber/id).
My problem is assume I create my very first account number which would be say AccountID(0), I want all textboxes for the three questions disabled until the checkbox is ticked. So thats ok, I can put the default value of chkbox to FALSE, and in VBA I can do the on_checkbox_click, if chkbox.value = true then textbox1.enabled = true else textbox1.enabled = false. I can do that for the other two textboxes in the Chkbox click event.
When I Tick the checkbox it enables the textboxes, which is good, but when I create/move to the next record, instead of these textboxes being disabled as default, they are enabled because i ticked the chkbox for the first record. I dont want the manipulation of one AccountsIDs questionnaire to affects the other records. If I add an unbound textbox which I want to display a message if the chkbox is ticked, then if I tick it on one record, it has the displayed message on all records. How can this be if each questionnaire is independently i.e each questionnaire is for ONE accountID.
It seems the textboxes etc are not unique to each accountID but they should be because they are in the Account table and when I enter values and use the checkboxes without doing the disabling or showing a textbox comment, they are separate and work great, but when I use my code to manipulate the flow of a questionnaire for each account i.e enabling textbox/showing textbox comment, it changes the formatting on the other records questionnaire which I don't want as each questionnaire will be different, so a chkbox may enable a question on one ID but not on another as it wont be relevant, so at the moment I only have ONE truly working questionnaire which works for ONE account , but I want it to work uniquely for each account.
I am totally new to ms access form development. I have to construct a form with a text box a command button and listbox. listbox contains the list of items.I have populated the list box with the items in the tables.Now on the same page I have to add new item via text box and when click command button it should be added(all these thing I have done). Problem is that I have to do some thing like if a type any letter in the text box all listbox item are arrange like that like
If Items are abcd,aaaa,aabb, aa,abb,bba,bcd,bab I enter ba in the textbox then itme should be arrange like
I am trying to trap the database error "View cannot be updated because modification affects multiple base tables" in the Form OnError event to display a user-friendly message instead of the above.The above can happen in the scenario of inserting/updating several fields of different tables at one time, likewise what I am facing now is the scenario of the user copying an entire record and pasting it.
I tried Case 4405 MsgBox "Can not update the record. it is related to base tables" Response = acDataErrContinue
But it doesn't work. How can I know the case number and solve all the scenarios of multiple insert/update attempts?Also, are there any better solution than this? I first tried to detach the SQL statements out of the views and make it one select statement so that I can normally multiple update/insert(as this problem happens with views only) but since CTE is not supported in Access , I failed to do so.
Good Afternoon, Could some kind person please point me in the right direction as to how to stop the 'VB code' window appearing and remaining on my task bar when I initially open up my DB. When I look at whats in the window there seems nothing untoward, but I would simply like to get rid of it as it is annoying?? Other sample db's that I open up on a regular basis are fine, so I was just wondering what could be causing it and how I could avoid it re-appearing..
On this form I have a button to open another form, this works fine. On the second form I have a button to close the form. When I press this it closes, and the first form is still there which is what I want, but somewhere along the line it has unmaximised itself and is about half the desired size. Basically I want it to stay Maximized the whole time it is open.
The way I can think to get round this is to close and re-open the forms as I navigate through them but just wondering why this is occuring?
i have set up a search from that returns email addresses for contacts based on certain criteria. the only problem is that the query will return the same email address a number of times because the query is set up to respond to a number of queries each of which a contact might posses. therefore, i need to ensure that each contact will only reappear once in a query return, they are all assigned unique ID numbers so I am guessing something can be typed in the ID criteria of the query to ensure that each ID is only returned once.

I want to stop the beep sound from coming up when i open a messagebox, i did already uncheck 'Provide Feedback With Sound' in options. Any other suggestions?
I have a large database of names, I would like to produce a query that reveals anyone that appears in the database more than once.
For instance in the image below "Sayprasith, Nick & S Kaye S" are listed twice in the database. I would like an output showing anyone that has their name repeat two times or more within the "owner_name" column. Ideally the output would be in such a way that preserves the "account number" field as well.
Based on the above image the ideal output would be:
Account Number Owner Name 00015121 Sayprasith, Nick & S Kaye S 00015148 Sayprasith, Nick & S Kaye S
Only it would be for the whole database that consists of many thousand records.
I have a calculated control on a form that is summing other controls and then a subtotal on a subform. This is access 2007
The calculated control does not display the value until I enter a value other then the default in all of the source controls. If I hit the "refresh" button, the value appears in the calculated control for a moment, then disappears.
I have set the default of the source controls to be 0, so none are null.
the calc control value does not stay until I put a value in the subform and its subtotal thus has a value
I have a form called frmElements which has its Data Entry and Allow Additions properties set to 'No' so that only existing records can be edited, this is all good and works fine when used from the Navigation Pane.
I have created a macro which opens this form from a button on the ribbon, this is where the problem lies because it opens the form and allows new records to be added, I know this because there is an empty record with an '*' at the bottom of the form. If I change to design mode the Data Entry and Allow Additions properties are still set to 'No', when I then change back to form view the form functions as it should.
It does not seem possible to set form properties using the macro builder and it appears to override the forms property settings.
I have a form for updating contact details of customers/suppliers. Upon clicking an edit button the user can update txt boxes (as opposed to updating the table data directly and making a mistake). When they press save the below code runs:
Code: If Not IsNull(Me.txtp_fname.Value) Then Dim strFirstName As String strFirstName = Me.txtp_fname Dim FirstName As String FirstName = Replace(strFirstName, "'", "''") End If
I have a log in table that counts every time a user logs onto the database. Each time a user logs in it adds another entry to a table.
I have built a query to display the user name and date of log in so I could display this information in a report. The report is now getting rather long, and I am looking for a way to display each users name and have the total number of times they have logged in, not display each time they have logged in separately.
The Query has two fields "Agent Name" and "Logger Date"
The report displays the data as follows
Agent Name Logger Date User 1 26/5/13 User 1 26/5/13 User 1 27/5/13 User 2 28/5/13
What I would like to do is have a report listing each users name, with a column showing how many times they have logged on. e.g.
I'm trying to generate a query that can be used for a pareto chart (Bar Chart shows the count of a defect and a line chart as a second axis counts the cumulative percentage)
I've grouped my data, and sorted the Count of each time the record appears but I cant get my head around working the cumulative percentage. My datasheet currently looks like this:
Reason Count Per Expr1 A 35 47.9 Random Numbers B 11 15.1 " C 10 137 " D 9 12.3 " E 7 9.6 " F 1 1.4 "
I have windows 7 access 2013, I had a query made, and wanted to add fields to it, so i went into the SQL and added several fields. Only the first one i entered didn't work and on the query is called "Expr1003" when in datasheet view. Its right in layout view, and even when i tried adding the same field in layout view, it made it "Expr1004". spelling is correct, in both source table and query, i don't know why this field doesn't work especially when the others did.
On a data entry form bound to a single table, there is a subform displaying all the records in the source table.If the user accidentally adds a record that they didn't mean to add (or if I add a record to test the form's functionality), and then right-click and delete the record, "#Deleted" appears in all the input controls.
I have a form that contains a blank text box for each field in a record. Until very recently it functioned correctly for years. Lately data enterers tried to fill a ten character field with five characters (ANNNN format, example X9999). Some records require an entry in this text box, some do not, so their field is left blank. Lately when a new entry is tried in this field, only the first three characters are accepted, blocking character four through ten from being entered. It acts as if the text length for this text box has been changed to three characters, but it is still the correct length in the Properties box.
The system keeps track of clients who have attended a nutrition education class and the form involved is the location the class was taught.
