Tables :: Zero Not Showing Up In Telephone Numbers
May 4, 2013How I can get the zero in my telephone dialling code to show up in my tables?
I have set the number display to the Long Integer.
How I can get the zero in my telephone dialling code to show up in my tables?
I have set the number display to the Long Integer.
Is there a way to show negative numbers in brackets without selecting the Currency format?
I want to show (75,000.00) and not -75,000.00
To cut a long story short, i've got a union query that is a full outer join of 2 tables.
Anyway, the results i have got back needed formatting to no decimal places.
How do i do that?
I've tried leaving it as it is and formatting it in the report, but it still doesn't format and i can't total it up.
It's like it is showing as a text and not number.
Is there a way of converting the result to a number, particularly in a sql query.
Can anyone help me please.
I have a telephone field that has been imported from many different databases and the format is different in some cases and i need to have all of the fields the same as in 00000000000 in other words no spaces or brackets.
Some of the numbers are
(00000) 000000 or
(00000)000000 or
00000000000 or
00000 000000 and finally some are blank
I can't seem to get the code correct to achieve what I need.
Thanks

Good day all.
Here is a bit on an interesting one. I am currently designing a database and I would like to connect it to an apparantly existing bit of kit available in the uk that connects a pc serial port and the users telephone line. When someone calls, it will send the telephone number of the caller (if available) through to the pc. The database can then use this telephone number to retrieve the callers details, if they are held. Does anyone happen to know what these devices are called? I have looked on google for Caller Line Identifier Hardware etc but no joy. Thanks.

I'm a total newbie in Access....is there a way to format a field in a table for a phone number so that when you put the info in it automatically puts the dashes in between the area code and such?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I have a 3rd table looking at the row source of the 2nd table, which is looking at the row source of the 1st table. I only get numbers.
Everything I have read so far points to using a query as a solution. However, the query I made is not updating the information from the 2nd table.
I have attached a few examples.

this below shows. I changed "Bakersfield-test1" in the original table. However, the query I made does not update, still showing "Bakersfield-test". When you click on the drop down, it shows the updated "Bakersfield-test1", but it does not repopulate my column with the updated info from the table.

I have 3 tables.
Table 1: contains staff names and contact numbers
Table 2: contains training above staff have been on or need to go on
Table 3: contains pc and printer asset numbers of above staff
I used a form and entered some new members of staff in table 1. They got their auto numbers etc but when I open table 2 and table 3 those new members are not showing up in those tables. I have checked the relationship status between the 3 tables and the staffID from Table 1 is associated to table 2 and to table 3.
What's stopping the new entries from showing up in tables 2 and 3 ?
I am trying to get a "formatted phone" number to appear on a "make table" query. I have revised the input mask properties to format the field to parantheses around the area code and a dash after the first three digits. The query works fine as long as I run a "Select Query" but when I change the query to a "Make Table" query, the new table does not come across with the telephone number in the correct ( )xxx-xxxx format! Using the Input Mask wizard, I've tried both options of storing the data and still get the same results. I do NOT want to have to go into this new table each time and reformat the telephone number as I'm sending the table directly to a switchboard in a different database. Any ideas on how to keep the formatted phone number intact?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am doing a project where we are collecting home owner data and information on all the dogs in the household. The data for homeowner has an autonumber primary key because no field is unique or has been consistently collected. I am struggling to link the data for the dogs to the owners because an autonumber primary key will not work since not all homes have dogs. I need to have this set up so that people who are not tech savvy can look up each homeowner (or dog) and get the dog (or home owner) information. And to make things even more fun we need up to 15 potential dogs per household each of whom will have 18 different pieces of data collected.
It looks a little like this (and you can see my not matching ID issue):
Homeowner table
ID First Name Last Name...........Total Dogs
1 Max Maximus 5
2 Min Minimus 0
3 Mus Musculus 1
Dogs 1-5 table
ID Date Dog 1 Name Dog 2 Name .......Dog 5 Name
1 (Max's) 4/11/14 Bobby Billy Betty
2 (Mus's) 4/11/14 Jojo
Min will have no dog records at all, just home information.how to link the dog's to the homeowners .
wot i want..
the phone rings.. the phone is connected to the computer..
the incoming caller's phone number is sent to the database.. and then possibly used in some way..(eg in a query or displayed on the screen in the database)
anyone had any experience in this process or can recommend a phone/cable setup url...
thanks.
What I am trying to do is i have a list of area codes connected to other data
What I want to do is do a search on a telephone number and this will check against the area codes and diaplay the required info
Example
Area info1 info2
01234 ab cd
012345 ar mc
01235 fg tr
So if I put a number like 01234567890 in the search box the result it will show is 012345 ar mc as this si the closet match to the telephone number.
I did it in excel with
=INDEX(whatwouldbedisplayed,MATCH(searchinfo,rowof data,1))
Im not to sure if this can be done as a query so would it have to be a macro?
I know this is an Access 101 question, but what is the best way to view text rather than numbers in my tables. In an example which I have attached, an Orders table shows the Customer field as a number. I would like to view the actual customer name when I am looking at the table.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two tables in the database I'm working on from Excel.
Table1 has demographic information for faculty, to which I added an AutoNumber Primary Key.
Table2 has the courses those faculty members taught, but it does not have the FacultyID I added to Table1; it has their last name, first name.
Is there a way I can have Access look up the employee's FacultyID from Table1 based upon their last name and first name, which are contained in both tables?
Thanks in advance.
I have a form (frmHourEnter) with a combo box (cmbJob) and if the number entered into the combobox is not in the list then another form (frmJob) is opened and a new number is entered. On closing this form I run:
Code:
Me.Form!frmHourEnter!cmbJob.Requery
The combo box (cmbJob) does not show the new number unless I close the form (frmHourEnter) and re-opened it. If I add the following code to the one above:
Code:
DoCmd.Requery "Form!frmHourEnter!cmbJob"
Then click out of, and then back into cmbJob the number is in the list! What can I do so that the number is in the list when the second form is closed?
Hi
I have a form which has two command buttons A and B. I set that when somebody click the button A then table A will be open and so on. But I dont want that table opens in new window. I want that I can "draw" a "box" in form where the table will showed. So can anybody help me and tell how to set that table will always show in "box". Can I set this somewhere in Access or do I have write VBA code. (I'am very very poor at coding)
Table Info:
EmpProfile: EmpID (Primery Key), EmpFirstName, EmpLastName, Emptitle, EmpPhoneNumber
EmpTimes: EmpID (1 to Many relationship with EmpID primery key), Timein, Break, TimeOut, Totalhours
Query Name:
Selects the table from EmpTimes
Calculates the total hours worked for an empid, on a given day. It produces the total hours as "CalcTime"
Form Info:
1st Form Name: MainForm
Text name to enter empID : Txtempid (unbound)
Record Source: EmpProfile
2nd form name: SFTimeSheet
This is a subform within main form
Record Source: QryTime
Child and master fields are linked using : EmpID
Expecting Result:
When enter empid on the MainForm, in txtempid
subform should retrieve all entries for that empid
Getting result:
regardless what empid entered in txtempid, subform shows only the 1st record available in EmpTimes.
Today and yesterday I added new fields to a table and they are showing wrong when everything is right. I added yes/no fields and a combo box look up and when I drag them over to my forms they are just showing as textboxes and not a checkbox or combo box. When I look at the backend and look at the fields it clearly says it should be a checkbox or combo box. Iv done it the same way I always have and this time its just wrong.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am pritty new to access and have been tasked with creating a database !
I have two tables one called main which has 26,000 claims (listed under there part number).
The other table called part numbers is a list of all the part numbers in the main table but with no duplicates (126 part numbers)
I need to somehow count how many times a part number apears in the main table. Maybe display a count in the part number table as a extra field ? then i could put this field into the form i created to browse the parts numbers (to show how many times the part number appears in the main table)

I need some normalizing my data properly, and then showing the values in a form.
Currently, my table relationships look like this;
However, there can be multiple Genres per Band and each Genre will be applied to multiple Bands, and I know this is a Many-To-Many relationship, but I'm uncertain on how to create this properly and then show it in a subform in a form.
Using access 2007 (and tried 2003) I have a linked ODBC table which is using an ORACLE driver. If I query the table directly through ORACLE/SQL for a particular 'job number' I get the following results:
18598979 3 06-DEC-13 10:10
18598979 0 03-DEC-13 10:34
18598979 1 03-DEC-13 10:34
18598979 2 06-DEC-13 08:20
However when I link the table through access and view the same job number within the table (not even using a query) it displays the following:
18598979 3 06/12/2013 10:10:00
18598979 3 06/12/2013 10:10:00
18598979 3 06/12/2013 10:10:00
18598979 3 06/12/2013 10:10:00
As you can see it only displays the MAX date/time and associated data from the 4 available records, duplicating the record. I've checked the field formats and they all look fine. It does the same if I pull through the table on it's own or with other linked tables.
I got a table with "ID" as autonumber field. However when I have ID numbers:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
And I remove record 4, then I got
1
2
3
5
6
7
How can I make it fill up the missing "4"?
I would like to expand on this questions. I would like to generate a number based on a reference I use, a format like "14/000" where I use "14" with the last 2 digits of the year. However i want the auto number to generate the the last 2 digit automatically when the year changes i.e. when 2015 comes the field generates "15/000" without any prompt from the user.
