Tables :: Updating Table Data In Event Handler

Mar 11, 2013

I am working with MS Access. The database has 2 tables.

-Parent and Student and ParentID is the Primary key as a parent may have multiple Students
-There is a form that lets me add students for a particular parent

One of the fields in the Parent Table is FeeDue. I added a field in the Parent Table called NumOfStudents..What I want to do is as follows: When a student is added on the Student Form, I want fee to be calculated automatically for display AND update the FeeDue field in Parent table. Event handler executed when a student is added (checkbox clicked)

OnClick()
{
Read NumOfStudents from Parent Table

if(student_added = true)
NumOfStudents++
else /* This is to cover student withdrawl*/
NumOfStudents--

if(NUmOfStudents = 1)
Fee= 400
else
Fee = 500
}

student_added check box is on the student form NumOfStudents and FeeDue are fields in Parent

Modules & VBA :: Subform Itself Has AfterInsert Event Handler

Jan 14, 2014

On a subform, I have a text box control with an AfterUpdate event handler. The subform itself has an AfterInsert event handler.

If a user enters data into that tb control for a new record and then moves on (tab or click elsewhere), the AfterUpdate fires and does what it should, including setting Me.Dirty=False immediately before it completes. Then the form's AfterInsert event fires and does what it should, but finishes by returning program control to the ErrorHandler label within the control's AfterUpdate routine, reporting either an error 2101 (The setting you entered isn't valid for this property) or 3270 (Property not found). The form's AfterInsert handler does have its own ErrorHandler label, but it is not being executed.

Modules & VBA :: Event Handler For Mouse Right Click And Select?

Aug 11, 2014

I want to handle the event when I right click and choose "Paste" to pop up a message to the user that he cannot paste; disabling the pasting functionality.

I understand that the Button parameter refers to right or left button , but on which event to best use (mouse up ,mouse down , mouse move - as it seems to be a mixture of the three) and the code for that event.

Code:
Private Sub List_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
' See if the right mouse button was clicked
If Button = acRightButton Then
'DoCmd.CancelEvent
'do event here
End If
End Sub

I don't want to cancel after there is a right click , but rather after right clicking and choosing "Paste".

Tables :: Updating Fields In Multiple Tables Without Onclick Event

Oct 23, 2013

I am working on a database which has two tables used as part of a registration and login process.

I would like a couple of fields from table one to automatically update in table two, once the fields in table one are populated without using an 'on click' event.

The reason I would prefer not to use an onclick is because the completion of the form used to generate the users table does not require any buttons for the data to save.

Tables :: Updating Table Data From External Db?

Dec 24, 2012

I have an Access db in a 3 person multi-user environment on a Windows network.

There is a "PRODUCTION" db and a "DEVELOPMENT" db.

Let's call them PROD and DEV.

PROD has the most current data, shipping records, item master, customer data, sales, etc. - but not the most current structure.

DEV has the most current struture - all the front end stuff - forms, functions, modules, etc. - but not the most current data.

The way I've handled this in the past (it seemed to work) was to take the PROD db and rename it to PRODX. Then take the DEV db and rename it PROD. Then open DEV (now called PROD) using the usual shortcut to PROD.

So now that opens fine, and I have to update all the tables from PRODX - and I mean ALL of them - since I don't really know what data has changed since the last update.If I try to delete records I get blocked by access because of all the related records (I don't have cascade delete set on every relationship). So I delete the whole table - ALL of them (this requires me to also delete the relationships). Then I IMPORT all the tables from PRODX (these have the current data). But now the relationships are all gone. It seemed at first that the relationships were back and intact - but when I last looked they were gone. So this is my problem.

HOW do I COMPLETELY empty ALL of the tables - or even delete them - and then restore them or repopulate them from an exact copy of the db but with current table data - and WITHOUT affecting the relationships?

Obviously any back end structural changes have to be handled differently. Usually by manually making the same change on the PROD db that I had in the DEV db - because deleting the table will cause the structural changes to be lost.

One last thing - I've been working this way on an un-split db, and now I'm in the process of splitting it - which SHOULD make updates much easier.

Tables :: Adding Field To Table And Updating Data?

Dec 1, 2013

I have a table in my DB called, devices. This contains all the information about various devices we have deployed in the field.

These devices are also contained in 2 other separate MySQL DB's.

What I need to do is add 2 additional field to my access table for the DeviceRecno and DeviceID of the same device from the MySQL DB's.

Adding the field is easy, but I cant think of a way to enter the recno and ID from the other DB's without typing them in manually for each one.

The common between them all is the serial number of the device, and I can get a list of serial numbers, recno's and ID in an excel sheet.

like a vlookup in excel to easily populate all the existing records with the recno and id's from the other db's?

When I created the access system there was no intention to link it to the other DB's for any reason, but that has now changed due to a lot of reasons.

Using The NotInList Event And Updating Two Fields The Table

Nov 26, 2005

I have a data entry form where country(ies) (there can be more than one for
each project) is/are entered in a sub-form on a tab control. Countries not
listed are entered by the following:

Private Sub CountryName_NotInList(NewData As String, Response As Integer)
Dim strSQL As String
Dim strMsg As String
Dim ctl As Control
Set ctl = Screen.ActiveControl

strMsg = "Country " & NewData & " Is not listed!" & vbCrLf & "Do you want to
add it?"
If MsgBox(strMsg, vbYesNo, "Not listed") = vbYes Then
strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblCOUNTRY (CountryName) "
strSQL = strSQL & "VALUES('" & NewData & "');"
CurrentDb.Execute strSQL
Response = acDataErrAdded
Else
ctl.Undo
Response = acDataErrContinue
End If
End Sub

This works fine. However, if I restrict the country names by a region
selection on the main form (for example if region Africa is selected on the
the African countries are preselected) the NotIn List does not work. Any way to work around this?

Another question, I want the user to select a region (a combo box ) on the
main form and when a new country (using the NotInList event) is entered in the subform both values go into
the same record in tblCountry (which has two fields CountryName and Region).
For example, I enter AFRICA for region on the main form and on the sub-form I enter Malawi which is not listed. I have tried the following:

Private Sub CountryName_NotInList(NewData As String, Response As Integer)
Dim strSQL As String
Dim strMsg As String
Dim ctl As Control
Set ctl = Screen.ActiveControl

strMsg = "Country " & NewData & " Is not listed!" & vbCrLf & "Do you want to
add it?"
If MsgBox(strMsg, vbYesNo, "Not listed") = vbYes Then
strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblCOUNTRY (CountryName, Region) "
strSQL = strSQL & "VALUES('" & NewData & "', FORMS!frmAddPro!Region);"
CurrentDb.Execute strSQL
Response = acDataErrAdded
Else
ctl.Undo
Response = acDataErrContinue
End If
End Sub

But it does not work (Region is the control on the main form named frmAddPro).
Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks.

Updating Tables While Data Is Viewed

Apr 18, 2007

I have created a Production Tracking database for my company using
Access 2003. Everyone here uses Access 2000, so I have saved the file
as an access 2000 database. I am importing three tables from an ODBC
connection. These tables are being update by another department
constantly. I am using a centralized form for users to view the
information.

If the users are viewing the information and we try to update the
tables they are viewing, we get an error. My question is: Is there a
way around this problem?

This what I have done:
In the module I wrote, I am importing the tables, then renaming them
to the tables the users are viewing, and then altering the structure
of one of the tables. We cannot use linked tables, the reason is we
have only three licenses to access the software through the ODBC
connection. So as soon as three people open the access database they
take those three connections.

Any Ideas?

Thanks,
Phil

Updating Split Data Tables

Oct 12, 2004

This has to be a common problem.

I have an environment where I have two databases. One holding tables (The Data) and one holding everything else "The Programs" (Forms, Queries etc)

When the application gets enhanced I currently have no problem updating "The Programs" since I can just copy the new MDB on top of the old MDB.

This is not the case with "The Data", if I need to change any of the tables (since they contain live data, that is modified all the time) I have to physically connect to the machine holding the Data.MDB and modify the tables. The problem is there are getting to be many locations where these changes need to be made.

Is there any way to update the tables from a script (I used to use SQL to update remote tables in a mainframe world)

Thanks

Updating Data On 2 Tables Based On Criteria

Oct 8, 2004

Ok. Here's the situation. I have query setup. This query has 2 columns:
1. Agent Name
2. Sale Value

I have 2 tables.
Table1: Includes Sales for this pay period only
Table2: Includes all Sales From past to present.

We are setting up our system on Tiers and Each sale value is going to change. So, Here's what I need:
I need to run an update query that first Looks up all the records in Table1 based on Agent Name. The field that needs to be updated is called SaleValue. It needs to be updated with what's in my Query mentioned above.
Then, all the values in Table1, need to be copied (or updated) into Table2. This can be done based on the Primary Key (SaleID), which exists in both tables. So I guess we will need to run 2 separate update queries. Any ideas on how this can be done?

Tables :: Updating One Column Of Data Across Many Records

Jul 9, 2014

I have a database containing 10,000+ trouble tickets identified by a unique field called "Ticket ID". This is the primary key for my table. (It's on just one table.) These tickets came from an excel sheet that was exported out of a different database. (For various reasons, we've moved the tickets to access.)

Among many descriptor fields, I have a field called "SPR Type" that shows what type of ticket each entry is. (Bug, Defect, Enhancement, etc, etc) The problem we have here is... not all of the ticket entries have an SPR Type listed on my access table because not all of the tickets coming out of the original excel sheet had one.

I was given a new excel sheet containing 400 to 500 ish Ticket IDs and the SPR Type that applies to each of those tickets. How can I take that sheet and use it to update my access table? Ie. Use the excel sheet containing Ticket ID and SPR Type to populate the blank SPR Type fields for each of their respective Ticket IDs?

**Update: I'm trying something like this...

UPDATE [SPR Priority] inner join [EB Update of SPR] on [SPR Priority.Ticket ID] = [EB Update of SPR.Ticket ID]
SET [SPR Priority.SPR Type] = [EB Update of SPR.SPR Type]

But I am getting an error that says "Invalid Bracketing of name [SPR Priority.Ticket ID] and similar errors. What am I getting wrong here?

I thought about an Update query that would populate the SPR Type fields based on Ticket IDs. I could import the new excel sheet into a separate access table and update from there.

General :: Updating Table Data With Data From Preceding Entry?

Jan 5, 2013

My question is this: I have a table where I'm entering employees' hours worked. Basically, it's something like this:

ID WorkerNumberDateworkedTimeStartTimeEnded
121/2/201310:00:00 AM3:00:00 PM
221/3/20132:00:00 AM11:00:00 AM
321/4/201312:15:00 AM11:30:00 AM
421/5/201310:25:00 PM11:00:00 AM
531/2/201311:00:00 AM3:30:00 PM
631/3/201312:00:00 PM10:00:00 PM
731/10/20137:00:00 AM4:00:00 PM

I have a query that (easily) determines how many hours an employee has worked on any given day. What I can't figure out at all, is how to write a query that can figure out how much time an employee had off in between shifts.

Thus far I'm able to run a query that separates this main table into individual workers by their id numbers, but can't figure out how to determine time off between shifts - as the last hour worked one day, and the first hour worked the next day are on two different lines (they are two different table entries).

Tables :: Related Table IDs Not Updating

Dec 3, 2012

I'm not sure why a couple tables are not being updated after entering data. I think my relationships are correct. I've attached the database.

steps:
open Main form
add addres then try to add an owner. it doesn't work the first time but it does work the second time. add test data and that works. now if you look at the related tables (OwnerInfo, WellLocation, TestData) they all have p_id which is the wellLocation Id

now open gernalinfo form
enter in info (tests requested doesn't work right now but you can click on them in the tbl GeneralInfo)
Now if you go to the table OwnerInfo and TestData the key p_id has not been updated. But it's there in WellLocation (ID).

Why are these tables not getting updated?

Linked Tables Not Updating In Junction Table

Nov 20, 2004

Hi, I have the following structure:

Products 1-M ORDER DETAILS M-1 ORDERS M-1 CUSTOMERS

I have ORDER DETAILS set as a junction table so that many products can be recorded within one order. All is good apart from when i go into ORDERS and create a new order. I click the subform which links to the ORDERDETAILS. I then pick a product number(look up from products table). The problem is this: In the ORDER DETAILS I want to display the unit price of this product simply by picking the product id.

Eventually this would form the basis of an order form where I can pick Product Id and have it display unit price.

Any ideas on this one, I'm sure its quite simple!!

Thanks in advance

Updating Table Data Using A Combo Box

Sep 4, 2006

Hi all
I have been nutting out this problem but have been unable to find a solution, even my learned colleague is at a loss to help. This is an data update query using combo boxes and forms.
I have 2 databases, Data and App, I have linked 2 tables, Main and Supervisor from the Data.mdb to the App.mdb. Supervisor has 2 fields ID and Name. Main has multiple fields but is linked to Supervisor by the ID field. I have a query that gets details from the Main Table and this is entered into a form. I deleted the SupervisorID text box and inserted a combo box using the wizard, it gets its data from a query that gets details from the Supervisor table showing the Supervisor name, the ID field in the dropdown is hidden. The combo box selection is held in the SupervisorID of the Main table.
What I want to do is change the Supervisor name using the combo box however I am unable to select another name from the dropdown list.
I have tried changing the Data Entry property of the form to Yes, this did not work. Allow edits is set to yes. I have tried adding another combo box which gets the data straight from the Supervisor table but I have the same problem.
Can anyone help, we think it is a simple property setting but all we have tried has failed to date. Thanks in advance.

Trouble Updating Parent Tables With Child Table/form

Jul 6, 2006

Sorry this is so long but I am trying to make it as detailed as possible...

The Setup

My database is similar to the sample "Service Call" db. I have a main table called "tblTT" which has an autonumber primary key. The table also contains several foreign keys such as UserID (not an autonumber) from "tblUser", TechID (also not an autonumber) from "tblTech", etc. I have the relationships setup with "Enforced Referential Integrity" for both updating and deleting records. Each relationship has a RIGHT OUTER JOIN ("Join 3" in access) so that all records from child (tblTT) and only equal from parent (tblUser, tblTech, etc.) will be included. I have a form for nearly every table which serves different purposes but the main function of the DB is to create new Trouble Tickets (TT's), a.k.a. service calls. Therefore the main form used is my "frmTT" form in add mode. The form contains all the fields from my "tblTT" table and contains (directly) no fields from any other table (I guess indirectly it contains fields from all the parent tables...).

The Problem

When I pull up "frmTT" and try to create a new Trouble Ticket for a user that does not yet exist in the table "tblUser" I get the error "You cannot add or change a record bcause a related record is required in table 'tblUser'".

What I want is for my users (the "Techs") to be able to create a new Trouble Ticket without having to worry about populating the "tblUser" table (and other parent tables) first.

My Solution

I was going to (and unless someone can find an answer for me still will) fix this using VB script by setting up a query to check all the parent tables for the values in their corresponding fields in the form. If the query returns no results an "INSERT INTO" statement will run to populate the parents tables so that the form will save itself into the Trouble Ticket table ("tblTT").

I feel that this is a huge work around and not the proper fix. I would prefer to do this the right way both to have a correctly setup DB and for future reference. Can anyone help me with this?


Thanks,
Andy

Tables :: Updating Specific Records In A Table Using Sql Doesn't Work

Sep 15, 2014

I Have a table that contains the fields: CAT, CHAPTER, ID, someSrting and Completed

CAT, CHAPTER, ID are numbers and Completed is true/false. If I mark a certain entry as Complted (true), I want all the records with the same (CAT, CHAPTER, ID) as the one I marked to be updated to Completed.

For example, If I marked the entry cat:1 chapter:1 id:1 as completed (true), I want all the entrys that have cat:1 chapter:1 id:1 to be marked as completed (true)

the code I wrote is:

Code:
Private Pub Completed_check_AfterUpdate()
Dim myCC
Dim myCat
Dim myChap
Dim myID
myCC = Me.Completed_check
myCat = Me.CAT
myChap = Me.CHAPTER
myID = Me.ID
CurrentDb.Execute "Update [my Table] " _
& "SET Completed = (" & myCC & ") " _
& "WHERE CAT = (" & myCat & ") And CHAPTER = (" & myChap & ") And ID = (" & myID & ") ;"
End Sub

I'm running the code (my clicking the "check box") and nothing happens, I was thinking that maybe I defined the after "WHERE" statement wrong, and there are 0 entrys changed..

UPDATE: after removing the

Code:

"& "WHERE..."

row, the code does update the entire table, so I have a problem with the syntax of the sql..

Forms :: Label Not Updating After Afterupdate Event

Jul 15, 2014

So I have a bound form with the following onload code:

Code:
'Add the percent completed to lblPercentCompleted by calling the function
Dim Completed As Double

[code]...

This works fine and set the caption and color of a label on this form.On this form I have several (now only a few, but in the end probably 40 controls or so) which will get updated by the user. When any of these controls are updated, I want the label lblpercentCompleted to get updated with the propper caption and color, however I am having trouble doing this.

I have an afterupdate event on each control with the same code as the onload code, however the message box below appears but the label does not update.

Code:
Private Sub TransferDieCutsOn_AfterUpdate()
MsgBox "Updating Label"
'Add the percent completed to lblPercentCompleted by calling the function
Dim Completed As Double
