One of the Tables in my membership database is named [WaitList] and has a linked Form.
The Form is configured to pull data from another Table named [Groups]. The fields are [Group ID], [Group name] and [Leader].plus others from a second Table.
When the [Group name] is selected from a Form Combo Box it succesfully records the [Group ID] in the Form and Table, but repeats the [Group ID] in the [Group Name] column of the Table. I am convinced that the problem lies with the Column Width setting on the Property Sheet which is currently set at 0;2.54, but trying various combinations has not solved the problem.
The Row Source for the [Group Name] field is ; SELECT [Groups].[Group ID], [Groups].[Group Name], [Groups].[Leader] from [Groups] and the Column Count is set at 1 (2nd in Table)
I believe the [Leader] field is a different problem in that the Form correctly finds the ID and the Name but not the Leader. I have checked the property sheet for anomalies, but without success.
I have built this type of Table/Form relationship many times but have failed on this occasion.
i am making a database from which i can calculate fuel required from one point to other in any particular type of vehicle.the problem is fuel from Pt A to Pt B is not same as from Pt B to Pt A.A sample table is attached as zip. qp.bmpis there any way i can cross refer field values with that of rows .
My employer wants me to update and revise a form with almost a hundred controls. All of the information is stored in a single table.
Is there a way that I can (easily) sort the order of columns in the table to alphabetize them? I know how to sort and filter records, is there a way to sort the columns other than the manual click and drag solution?
Note: I know that the database I'm working on for this project is not normalized. My employer isn't concerned with normalization. I've made as many corrections to the table as possible, already, but some things just won't be fixed.
When I originally created my access database, I used a text field/column to connect 2 tables together. I would like to change this to reference the Primary Key/ID column instead of the text field.
Is there an easy way to go about doing this? My original thought was to create some vba code to replace the data in the column of the sub table with the autonumber in the primary table but I cannot figure out how to do it.
I have 4 tables that store information on guest charges (stayinfo/room rate, fuel charges, bar tab, merch charges) each linked to table carrying guest ID's. Is there a way to combine/merge all the tables into one in such a way that all of the guestID's are in one column, all of the charges are in another column etc? Basically adding one table to the bottom of another.
I have a replica at work, 1 copy on the network, 1 local.. I need to add a column to the main table, getting "Operation is not supported for this type of object".... I have users that use the database but was given a change to the form/report which requires a column addition. What is the simplest way to get around this??? I'm trying not to get into major problems.
how I can set a color on table column formatted as rich text and memo. For instance this table has 4 different columns of remarks, one from each engineering operating center. Remarks_1, Remarks_2, Remarks_3 and Remarks_4. Each one of the 4 operating centers enters the remarks in one of these fields. On the Dashboard report, what I do is I get all these 4 fields and merge in 1 because the report is already narrow due to several other columns as well. So there is a report combining all data : =Remarks_1& " -"&Remarks_2&" - "&Remarks_3&" - "&Remarks_4 under Remarks.
The point is that the Dashboard has colorcode, Orange for Remarks_1, Red for Remarks_2, Blue for Remarks_3 and Green for Remarks_4. All these fields are memo on rich text format. On the form I have set the color of each field, however the color doesn't get set on the table as well, but only on the form fields. How can I set a defined color to each field on the table? And also when I get all data in one column, I would see all different colors.
My problem is I have two tables. One of the tables was made specifically to draw information from to populate the second table. The second table has a combo box that draws information from one of the fields from the first table. What I am hoping to do though is have each selection from the combo box in the second table to draw different information from another field in the first table and use that data to populate another field in the second table.
Simplified: Combo box in Field (1) on table two has multiple selections that I want to autofill the data in Field (2) on table two based upon the selection of the combo box. Data from both fields in table two would come from two different fields from table one.
I have tried to work with the After Update button in the After Events section on the ribbon at the top; however, I am simply lousy with coding. Is there an easier way to do it other than using that option?
how data is best structured in Access.I have a table of values (for instance: weight) and I need to be able to look up a weight based on the column header (age) and row header (height).How is this sort of data best structured and accessed in Access?
In the organisation that I work for employees get paid every 2 weeks on a Saturday. So for this financial year the pay period end dates have been 08/07/2006, 22/07/2006, 05/08/2006 etc
I have a column in an Access table listing various dates. I want the next column to be populated with the next pay period end date after that date.
So if DATE is 05/07/2006 I want PAY PERIOD END to be 08/07/2006 and if DATE is 09/07/2006 I want PAY PERIOD END to be 22/07/2006 etc
i would like to sum all the column fields in a tables column where an id is the same as the id in that table. I know you can use the SUM function in the select statement of your query.
But how can i set this sum result into a variable, so i can use it for calculation further on in the program?
I am looking to add 3 or more different list values into the same column on the same table.All lists are stored in seperate tables within the same database.
I was just assigned this database task couple weeeks ago, I know VERY LITTLE. I have all my tables and forms set up. My company builds custom cars....very few per year. I have dozens of tables for all the different componetns of the car....and each table has the same column "Unit" in it. I have a form that when a new car is began being built, the the first thing it does is ask the user to type in the Unit for the new car, but that only puts it in the one table i referenced when creating this form. I want/need this Unit information to be placed in every single table (20+) that has the column "Unit" in it. How can i do this, any information is greatly helped.....im getting so frusturated, i feel like i've learned a lot in the past 2 weeks since starting but i stil really know hardly anything.
I have 2 Table that I will like to search in. I want to be able to search on a date and get the “ID” and the name of the column the date was found. Is that possible? I am thinking some kind of a Search-box, that will give a table/report.
The names of the tables are “2_PT_datoer” and “2_PT_CG_datoer”
In the first I want to search in the columns: “2U_PT-O_sendes(udfyldes_automatisk)”, “2U_PT-O_rykker_sendes(udfyldes_automatisk)”, ““4U_PT-O_sendes(udfyldes_automatisk)”, “4U_PT-O_rykker_sendes(udfyldes_automatisk)”, “8U_PT-O_sendes(udfyldes_automatisk)”, “8U_PT-O_rykker_sendes(udfyldes_automatisk)”, “6M_PT-O_sendes(udfyldes_automatisk)”, “6M_PT-O_rykker_sendes(udfyldes_automatisk)”.
In “2_PT_CG_datoer” I want to search in the columns: “Tjek_at_blodprove_er_taget_1(udfyldes_automatisk) ”, ”2U_CG-O_sendes(udfyldes_automatisk)” etc.
NB: I need an explanation for dummies as I am new to Access/Sql/codes in general

I made a bunch of tables by importing them from excel. Then I had someone ask me a question regarding a specific instrument. My tables have a bunch of parts and id's but I don't have the instrument associated with a specific part in the table.
Is it possible to add the data into the new column automatically using a query. I tried the append query, but I'm either doing it wrong or it won't do what I'd like it to do. I just want every record within that table to have the same instrument in an instrumentId column.
Hi well as the title says i have a database with a LOT of tables, and i need to find the tables that contain a certain heading, eg reference 6, is there an easy way of doing this?
