Tables :: How To Force Yes / No Display As Checkbox
Feb 12, 2013
Access 2010 - In datasheet view, some of my yes/no fields display according to the format set in design view (yes/no, true/false, etc., or -1/0 if no format specified). But a few fields that I have added since originally creating the table show up as check boxes.
I cannot find any discussion of how to force the checkbox display or even figure out where that is specified. This same behavior carries over to DS forms as well.
How can I specify a checkbox display style instead of Yes/No etc?
On all my databases I uncheck the "display database window" on the startup menu and for the most part it works great. However, when the database is selected from the recently used list off the file menu the database window shows and how do I fix that?
Hello everyone, I have some experience with access but am having difficulty at the moment with a command. This is what I am wanting to do;
I have some checkboxes which when checked I want a separate field to display a number. i.e. When 'Taster' is checked 'Overall Price' will show '£225' but also when 'Meal' is checked 'Overall Price' shows '£500'.
I have a table "LightDuty" with a field [Email Sent] that is a YES/NO field.
I do not have a checkbox on the main form for the [Email Sent]; instead this field is checked (in the table) when the user sends an email to the receipient. I use the [Email Sent] field as a criteria for my query.
I need to uncheck the checkbox when the user changes the date in a field called [Drs Excuse Exp].
This is what I have tried (in the AfterUpdate event of the Drs Excuse Exp control):
Code: Dim db as DAO.Database Dim rs as DAO.Recordset Set db = CurrentDb Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("LightDuty")
[Code] .....
I get the runtime error 3265 "Item not found in collection"
I'd like to copy checked records from one tale to another after a user presses a button.
Ex. The table 'Equipment List' has a checkbox column that the user can check off as they scroll through the table on a form. When the user presses a button, after they are completed with all of the checkboxes, each checked record is then copied to 'Equipment Transactions' to keep a record of which pieces of equipment were used for the day.
I'm trying to transfer records from a table in one subform to another subform (on same form) using a checkbox as a filter:
Private Sub TransferAndReview_Click() Dim db As dao.Database Dim strSQL As String strSQL = "INSERT INTO Forms![Extra Work Report Checksheet]![Equipment Input Subform1].Form[(QuantityUsed[, HoursUsed])] VALUES (QuantityUsed[, HoursUsed]) FROM Forms![Extra Work Report Checksheet]![Equipment Checksheet Table Subform] WHERE [Extra Work Report Checksheet]![Equipment Input Subform1].Form[EquipmentUsed]=True;" Set db = CurrentDb db.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError End Sub
I keep getting the error "Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement" which points to 'db.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError' and I don't understand why. Neither of the fields [QuanityUsed] or [HoursUsed] are lookup fields, etc.
Hi guys, I need urgent help on a simple question. I hope you will be able to help me. I have a table CustomerMaster which stores customer number and name. (Customermaster) I have another table which stores the product details for customer. (customerProduct) I have another table which shall store order details. (CustomerOrders) On the form, the user selects a customernumber, the system then displays the customer name. The user then picks up the product ordered by customer (picked from combo box). On the combobox on recordsource I have given a select query which fetches the records matching the customer selected from table Now I want the Product Price, tax and duty of the product to be displayed for the selected product. Somehow, I have to again make that as a combobox and then select the price (although there is only one record... Can anyone tell me how to do this? Regards K
I've got a form about personal attendance list (table: ATTENDANCE) where I need show their photos (these OLE images are save in another table PERSONAL)
How I can show photos in the attendance form ? Thanks
I have a database which contains details of groups of students. Groups are assigned tutor(s) using a link table between the Groups table and a Tutors Table.
I want to create a query which shows each group with their tutor. If I add the three tables to the query I can correctly generate a list of groups with their tutors, but any group which hasn't got a tutor (i.e. where the Tutor column would be blank) doesn't feature in the results.
I want all groups to be listed, even if they haven't got a tutor. Is this possible? How?!
i have a table of 3 columns Named as C_Name, C_City and C_PIN..i have a combo box with All Value (All,C_Name,C_City and C_PIN)...i want to display All columns ,when i select All in Combo box and when i select Column C_Name, only display C_Name Column).
I've been asked to consolidate data from a number of different sources, rationalise and set up some access controls to restrict viewing/editing. The raw data is combination of personal data, cost codes and dates.
My company supply labour and materials to offshore facilities, where our staff work on a rotational basis. These swings typically run 2 weeks on/2 weeks off, but often can run shorter periods. We need to track who is offshore and at which facility, both to prevent double bookings and identify when we can book people in for training etc. This data also needs to form the basis for our timekeeping application.
I've created the base tables successfully, rationalising where possible, however I cannot for the life of me figure out how to replicate the current process of assigning people to their rotation.
The travel team currently use a matrix where the user info is broken down by trade and name in the left hand column, then the dates are displayed in a row across the top. The process of allocation is then simply colour code the dates where the person is booked on or off.
I have a query that pulls data from 2 different tables. The query should display two columns made up from data of the two tables. Some of the data in the two tables are equal. How can avoid from displaying equal results.

I do not want to display the result in row 2 seeing that both are equal.
In a graphical display, I would like know how to show the relationship between 4 new tables in an access 2007 database. I know that I setup this relationship since in the past but I can not get the 'arrows' to show up in the graph. i looked at the following link, but this does not show the graphically relationship between the table:
[URL] ....
I also clicked on each table to look their properties, and nothing is marked as 'hidden'
I am using Access 2003. Access front end, sybase backend. I am building the queries in the design mode in Access. Here is my question...
I am looking for a way to force a one-to-many relationship between two tables. I am connecting the primary key in table1 to a field (foreign key) in table 2. But it keeps going to one-to-one. It should be doing one-to-many (the "1" and the "8"-sideways infinity symbol).
I have a query in Access 2000 that I can't get to force a certain value in empty rows for a particular field column - maybe someone here can see why?
The SQL for the query is as follows (give or take some)...:
TRANSFORM Count([Testing DB].[DB_ID]) AS [CountOfDB_ID] SELECT [Testing DB].State, [Location].[North], Count([Testing DB].[DB_ID]) AS [Total Of DB_ID] FROM [Testing DB] LEFT JOIN [Location] ON [Testing DB].[Address] = [Location].Address WHERE ((([Location].[Size])=Nz([Size],"Big")) AND (([Testing DB].[Window Length]) Is Not Null) GROUP BY [Testing DB].State, [Location].[Size] ORDER BY [Testing DB].State, [Location].[Size] PIVOT Format([Date],"mmm-yyyy");
I want my crosstab to end up so that any records in the "Size" column that are not matched between the two tables, and therefore come up empty for those rows in the query results, are forced to change from empty to "Big" - so that they can be added into the count of "Big" hits that the query ends up with in the "Size" column. But all my "nz" addition did was remove the columns with blank values from the crosstab - no addition to the "Big" counts.
Am I perhaps going about this incorrectly? Maybe I should have used some form of iif(is null) instead.:confused: Any help is, as always, much appreciated.
i have a database am working on in access 2010. I want a field to take its value based on another field's combo.Example;i have a checkbox field called "Loan" "Yes/No" and i have another textbox filed "Status" (which will hold eligibility). I want the Status to read Eligible when the checkbox is No and Non-eligible when its Yes
I'm sorry if this is obvious, but I have asked local professionals and scoured this site for answers before posting...
I have a database that I'm using to store and analyze language samples (basically, the mistakes that students make when trying to speak in another language). For each bit of language, I want to be able to say what domain the mistake belongs to - e.g. the 'clause', 'phrase', or 'word' domain. I have a table containing the five domains. I also have a table for each of these domains, containing the specific types of mistakes relevant to that domain. It is conceivable, but unlikely, that I will ever add to the domain table, but highly likely that I will add types of mistakes in the five related tables.
As I analyze bits of language, I will be appending each analysis (record) to a table as shown in the attached image. So far so good. The part that I cannot fathom, though, is how to display (let alone perform calculations on) this data: While the ErrorDomainID is a foreign key to the ErrorDomain table, the ErrorUnitID could refer to one of five tables, so that an ErrorUnitID of 2, for example, could refer to one thing if the Domain is 1 but quite another if the domain is 1 or 5 or whatever.
I've tried all kinds of coding and SQL workarounds, but I have a feeling I'm just missing something very basic here. If anyone could offer some guidance, I'd be extremely grateful!
I am trying to display all the fields from Employee table where Employee.TokenID= Rating.TokenID but I only want to display the fields from the Employee Table and not from the rating table. And each record displayed should be distinct by the TokenID....
How to display field types of access tables in vba? can any one show me how i can display display field types(like : phone integer ....) of access tables in a text box using vba? I have no idea how i can obtain that information using vba. Looking forward to your replys.Thanks
I currently have two different excel spreadsheets linked to access 2003. The first few columns are very similar with similar headings. What i have now is a form displaying the data from one spread sheet (Engine Status), and another form displaying the data from the other (Engine Health).
As I am very new to access is there a way that i can link the two spreadsheets together and display all the data on one single form. I would like a combo box to find the required serial number (tail number) and once the serial number is selected the data from both spreadsheets will be displayed.
The spreadsheets i have to work with are of set standard for ease to input data from numerous other sources. I have attached examples of the two spreadsheets with the headings that are the same between the two although i have attached these to a single work book in reality they are seperate work books.
What i would like is for a combo box to display the Tail number then have single boxes to display core serial numbers across the form in order of position, then all the other data associated with that core serial number displayed in seperate boxes below the core serial number. I hope this is possible as it will prevent a lot of toggling between forms.
I have the following input mask for a certain field in an ACCESS 2010 table : 00-000-a-a-a;0;-
It works fine. That is when I tab down to it and if I know that the format is : xx-xxx-x-x-x
but if someone does not know the format , things can be out of position.how do I code the field such that the format (xx-xxx-x-x-x) is displayed in the input field awaiting the actual keying of the data?
I agree completely with everyone when it comes to not using lookup fields in tables.But does that extend to Display Control of yes/no tables? What are the problems with setting the Display Control to "Check Box"?
I have created a table (data entered/selected via a form) which includes a drop down box, for 'Ethnicity' to pick a value from another table (ie used Lookup wizard to for options from another table).
The row source looks like this:
SELECT [Lookup_Tbl_ethnicity].[Code], [Lookup_Tbl_ethnicity].[Category], [Lookup_Tbl_ethnicity].[Sub-category] FROM Lookup_Tbl_ethnicity ORDER BY [Code];
Setting the ORDER BY [Code] displays the options in the drop down box in the correct sensible order.
The 'Bound Column' is column 3 - Sub-category. I assumed that this would be the 'value' stored, searched and displayed... but the table (and related form) display the Code.
how to change this so that the Sub-category is displayed?
