View RepliesI am trying to automatically update one table to another each time a new record is added to my form, I have tried using the Update and the Append Query is there another way to do this without using code?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've created two tables, one containing order data, the other additional order data. Not every order has additional order data.
First i've created them with no specific relationship and filling in data via form worked fine. If i added additional data, a new record in the additional order data table was created automatically.
Later i changed those tables to a "one to one" relationship by setting the long int field that links to the order data table to no duplicates. I just did it because i thought that's how it should bew. But since then i can't add additional order data via the form anymore, but get the error "Record(s) cannot be added; No corresponding record on the 'one' side" instead. I could just revert back to the one to many relationship, but it bothers me.
Hey..
I'm having a rather strange problem that no one can fix, apparently. My teacher is even baffled :S.
Basically, I created a custom menu bar, took off some of the defaults, but now I am having a problem. I deleted the original custom menu bar and now I am posed with the following error when my database is loaded (I am using an autoexec script that opens the switchboard).
Can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks a lot, again, guys :).
Table has a relationship with master table. Joined on TractID primary table - auto number, TractID child table - number. This works as it should when adding a new record.
What I am trying to do is create a new key for each new record added in the child table with an ID that looks like this: TractID.A, TractID.B, TractID.C etc. for each new record added in the child table. if so where do I look, how to accomplish it?
I am wondering if it is possible to automatically create a new field in one table whenever a new record is entered in another table. The name of the field would be the primary key entry of that new record.
I have one table (table 1) in which each record corresponds to a particular mouse with a unique ID number, and each field is the ID number of a particular genetic marker. The table overall shows what genotype (+ or -) a mouse has at each marker.
In the other table (table 2) the primary key of each record is the ID number of a genetic marker, and the fields are several different bits of information about the marker (e.g. what chromosome it's on, its location on the chomosome, etc.)
I would like to have it set up so that if I enter a new genetic marker in table 2 a field named after its marker ID will automatically appear in table 1. Is there a way to do this?
I am still new to Access code.
I was wanting to know if there is a way to Add the Username to a table as a default value when a new record is added. I know you can add =Date() to get the date. Is there a simple way to get the ID of the person logged into Window?
I have a table A in which I write down orders for cars. A record is an order. A single order may contain multiple cars in varying quantities.Each car has its components. Some cars may have some of their components common. There is a table B which indicates each car and its components required with their quantities required to build the car. There is a record for each different car.
Now suppose there is a new car we are going to produce so we need a new record in table B for the car and all its components. Also we need a new field in table A because people can now order the new car(in some quantity).
With form for table B we can introduce a new record. But how can we add a field in table A automatically after a record is added in table B?
Using DAO recordset, table enters unbound fields data properly for desired records, but adds an extra record which is a duplicate of the first record entered....any known access quirks for adding unwanted records?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a small issue, but cannot solve it. I have a form with a textbox bound to a time(7) on a SQL server linked table.
Even if I put the format as "Short time 24h" or "hh:mm" it will always come out with seconds, nanoseconds, etc as soon as you change record. I would like to avoid using the "current" event to keep the "hh:mm" at any record change.
Hello,
Using Access 2000, linking tables to Oracle 10g with a db trigger forcing the default display format within Oracle to dd/mm/yyyy hh24:mi:ss (ie 24hr time format). Unfortunately MS Access displays in 12 hr format in the datasheet grid. A Sybase article reported this issue:http://www.sybase.com/detail?id=1024202. Do you know if this has been fixed for more recent versions of MS-Access?
Thanks

I have a date/time field. I would like to:
Enter time this way and have it show in the form as:
Enter 5 - show 5 PM
Enter 515 - show 5:15 PM
etc.
I would like it to default to PM and not have to select or enter the PM. How do I enter this format in the table?
I would like to know if there is any procedure to restrict/stop auto number increment for certain number of record count (say 50), then increment by 1 for next 50 records.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an application with a backend db on PC 1, and the same application on PC 2 linked to the backend db on PC 1 via the network.
The link works fine but the time formats are different.
On PC 1 the time format is shortime and displays as it should i.e. in 24 hour clock format
However on PC 2, opening the same database via the network, the time format is still shorttime but when you read the time within the code it comes out in AM/PM format. Also, when the defaul tiem should be #20:00:00# but this changes to #8:00:00 PM#
Weirdly though, when you just open the table, the times are in the correct shorttime format.
Guessing, it must be a setting within the main core of Access 2003 that is different between the 2 instances?
Any ideas?

I have two fields in my form contained Start time and End time. Currently, Both fields using default Time$() on form. However, End time always wrong because until we get our job done, It took atleast 20 or 30 minutes more than current default time. My question is, is there any way I can setup the End time to just click on it, and a new current default time populated?
Thanks in advance..
I wanted to assign the field "Number of magazine" with special format based on date/time format but showing only year and month in the format: "yyyy-mm".
So in property of this field in format I put yyyy-mm and in input mask I type 0000-00;;-
I also created the form based on the table containing above field and I defined format and input mask for corresponding formant in the same way like at the table.
But if I try to type date for example 2014-01 in text box of the form it comes up with the full date 2014-01-01. Why does it do like this? What do I do incorrectly?
Is it possible for a query to automatically get updated each time a table is added. For example I am looking at prices and each month a new table of information is added for that month and I use a query to view each month next to each other. Is there a way that each time I add a table the query will automatically update?

I am creating a database where users will be entering Survey data. The Survey dates are in the format: Month-Year (February 2005, December 2004) etc....
I would like to capture the dates in that format, but retain the functionality that comes with Date type fields. For example to query a date range.
How and where do I specify the Date Format I desire?

create a macro that automatically fills in the next invoice number in sequence",,I'm assuming this macro would look at the value of the previous record and add a one to itI don't want to use a AutoNumber field as I might need
(a) to modify value or
(b) need to skip numbers.
I need to export a table to a .csv file.
One of the fields in the table is "Posting Date". Data Type: Date/Time. Format: Short Date
All records in this field are dates. Format is "dd/mm/yyyy". None of the records include a time.
When I export the table to a .csv file, the time is added to the date. So the exported result is "dd/mm/yyyy 00:00:00" e.g. 17/10/2013 00:00:00
I am exporting the table using "delimited" format in the wizard.
I cannot use the fixed width option.
How do I prevent the time from being added?
I am stumped: After importing from an outside source (an excel spreadsheet) I have to change the short-date format
