I have a two tables one contains a list of phone lines, the other contains fields named Date, Line Number, and Number of Calls. I want to make a form that will allow the user to enter the number of calls received each day for each line. I would like to have the lines displayed in several text boxes with text boxes next to them where the user could enter the number of calls. I could use static text boxes to list the lines but the lines change often and I want them to get their values from the Lines table.
I haven't been able to find a way to write an expression or code to set the default value of the text box to a specific record. Is this possible? I figured the expression for the default value would look something like this [Text1].DefaultValue = [Lines]![Line Number].Record1, Record1 being the specific line I want displayed in the text box. Anyway of doing this?
I want to hyperlink from a query direct to the relevant record in a specific form. I have a hyperlink field in the form which shows up in the query. When clicked in the query, this hyperlinks to the form but I cannot make it select the correct record in the form.How do I get it to select the correct record?
I have a form for creating projects in a database. I originally set this up with 5 buttons for when the project is due to be at 1 hr, 2 hrs, etc. Now, they "management" want me change two of these for end of shift of on the current day and start of shift for the next day. This is the code I had before for the 6 hrs:
Private Sub Command152_Click() Me.DueTime = RoundTime(Now() + 6 / 24, 1800) End Sub

Hello, I have just spent ages doing searches and reading everything I can on locking. But, I have yet to find an answer as to how I can lock a specific field in a specific record.
e.g. Staff enter customer details, then at the end of the day the admin (me) checks it over and presses a big old button that stops them from locking certain fields in the current record only - they must still have access to the unlocked fields of the current record, and it must not lock any other records.
I'm guessing there's some VB code in the form of fieldname.lock = true, but then it locks the field throughout the whole table!
I have a problem in my Database system. The title of my Database is Employee Evaluation. This is my problem.. I already make the default value the txtbox a current system date. but for the next day.. the txtbox for all record should become a current system date. but only the for the new record is the current system date. the all records are not current system date... I want from the opening of my system the textbox of all records are should be current system date.
I am new to access i have a problem which is i have made a form which contains a subform and a read only subreport, what i want is the ability to select a record in read only subreport as in the picture attached and make a button that when i press on it, it should copy the values of the itemsID field, Packing field, ContainerNo field and origin field from the selected record and then paste them in the subform below.
Also i want to add more then one item, so the when i press on another record it should paste the values below the first record.
I have a continuous form for which the recordsource is a query that retrieves dates from 10 days in the past to 10 days in the present. I want the record with today's date to be at the top of the form. The record with the oldest date is always on top. Is this a scrolling issue? How can I get the record with today's date to appear on top?
Private Sub jobdatebox_GotFocus() Dim dteFormDate As Date dteFormDate = CDate(InputBox("Enter the date:", "Date Entry")) Me.jobdatebox.SetFocus Me.jobdatebox.Text = dteFormDate
the above code pops up an alert and asks the user to enter a date. this value is then stored in the jobdatebox control (jobdate field)
the jobdate field is a Date/Time datatype and is the first item on my form so when the form opens this pop up appears instantly (which is fine)
they enter a date as the following: 6 6 and it displays as 06/06/2006
my user tabs through the fields, inserting a record.. when they reach the last field.. and tab again (to enter another record)
the pop up alert appears again..i dont want this.. i only want it to pop up the first time (when the form is opened) and then just keep that value in the jobdatebox for the remainder of the form's open session
i need something that does the following..
on new record creation jobdatebox.value = dteFormDate (the value entered previously)
OR
Private Sub jobdatebox_GotFocus() Dim dteFormDate As Date dteFormDate = CDate(InputBox("Enter the date:", "Date Entry")) Me.jobdatebox.SetFocus Me.jobdatebox.Text = dteFormDate for all records entered until form closes
OR
just before new record is created if jobdatebox = not null (has a date value inside already) then newrecord.jobdatebox = previous record jobdatebox.value
Does anyone know some code that will take me to the record whose field "A" has value "B"?
It sounds very simple but I can't find anything the does it!
Basically I have a table or enquiry records, some of which are related. I just want to be able to click on a button to take the user straight to the related record. The current design does this using a filter but this is pretty rubbish as it meanhs that in order to search on all records I need to select all records again first.
If DCount("[Po_Num]", "Orders", "[PO_Num] ='" & txtPO & "'") = 0 Then MsgBox "Sorry, No record matched" txtPO.SetFocus
Else
MsgBox "yes" DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmPopUp" DoCmd.OpenForm FormName:=strForm, wherecondition:=strwhere End If
End If
End Sub ------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Orders3" is the subform of Form "GoodOne" . When the user enter the PO Number in txtPo, and press "ok" , it will go to that record. BUT it just show a new blank reocrd instead.
What's wrong with the programme ??? (is it the matter of subform ?)
I have a form (frmHourEnter) with a textbox (Week_No_Calc) which has a calculation, in Control Source, based on another textbox. After exiting from Week_No_Calc how can I get a field (Week_No) in table (tblHourEnter) to be updated with the calculated value?
Basically I want to type the ID(key) of a record table in a unbound text box and then by pressing a command button to be able to bring up that record (in form view). I do not want to use a combo-box.
So what do i write as VB code in the Private Sub mybutton_Click()
Table name is [ACTION_ID], ID field name is [ACT_ID] & text box name is [TEXT_BOX]
I have a form that displays customer account information. The form is connected to two tables. each customer has their own account number that i use to lookup their information. right now i have to click on the account number field and click find to pull up the record. I have built a popup form that displays the customers names with their respcetive accounts. My question is, How can i use the popup form to select a customer name and have the main form goto that record without using the find button.
I was wondering how I could select a date for a particular field in my main form. What I'm trying to do is this: When I make a particular selection in one of my fields, I need to be able to specify a date that will be displayed on the main form, and also print on the report. I need to be able to select a specific date, and not a default date.
Hope this is clear, trying to keep it simple - which can be pretty complex.
Basically im creating a db that the company i work for will use for invoicing creating orders storing the clients we have and so on. This is my first time using access and ive been working on this project for a few months so my vba knowledge is pretty poor to say the least.
What i need is for the orders form to view the current order i have open in report format. Everything on this order form works and is linked to the invoice report that i created, i even managed to get it to print the current report. I just cant seem to get it to view the specific order im looking at, ive tried loads of things from using my crap vba to queries..
Would greatly appreciate some help on this as my boss needs this db completed asap.

I'm working on a "Product Details" form somewhat similar to form in northwind, which the record source in "Products" table. what i'm trying to do is after clicking "save and new" command button to go to new record in form, i would like all text boxes to automatically retrieve the value from last saved record set as default value.
after google searching this subject i found the LastModified Syntax but i just don't understand whether i use it in VB or marco, or even how to implicate this. Should I make macro on each txtbox or should i create module? if i have to create either macro or module.
I'm building a database to control projects of new products for a company, the flow is easy:
-Step 1: Record the general information in a main table (db_master_info) (i.e. project name, description, date of launch, etc.) - Step 2: Record the product codes in a detail table (db_units) (i.e. product codes and quantities) -Step 3: Record monthly information like, production and sales forecast in the detail table (db_units) -Step 4: Build a monthly stock equation(production minus sales forecast) and record a comment, in a comment table (db_comments), about the results.
The steps 1,2,3 and 4 I did successfully!
The step 5, I'm unable to think outside of the box!
I drew a sketch (form_stock and comments.jpg attached) that might be a possible solution...
Use a continuous subform with a unbound textbox with VBA to load record and edit/update???
I am working on a database used in recording device characteristics/test information. The main table of information has dozens of columns for test/part detailed information. When inputing the data for each specific test, many of the info. details are repeated when testing say 20 devices of the same part all at once. Rather than retype every piece of detailed information in every field, everytime, is there an easier way? Does anyone know of a way to make specific fields copy/paste the previous record's information in the fields automatically when a new record is created? Please, if anyone could help or has ANY ideas, let me know...
Hi, I am having a problem using the combo boxe, I think it is an easy problem but I have been spending the all morning trying to find a solution with no success. i am designing a form allowing to enter the different costumer information in our system. The costumers information are broke down in 2 tables TblCostumer and TblCostumerOffice where a single costumer can have many offices across the world. The form shows the main costumer with a subform showing the different offices location. I wanted to use a comboxe on the main form allowing the user to go on the specific costumer page selected, I am just working with 2 fields for now CostumerID and CompanyName. The combo boxe is bound to CostumerID and is not allowing any change, I don't know if it is the right method because I would normally use combo boxe to change a field value not find a specific record. Should i use code in the after update event using the 'gotorecord' or 'findrecord' command?
I need to export a specific record in the table. The menu's export option only export the entire table. Is there a way to define certain record to export?
Note: Dates are in "dd/mm/yyyy" format. Also, not all data is in order in the table. It’s not how I would have designed it but that’s what I need to work with!
I would like to run a query that groups by custID & itemcode and also the most recent date for any price change. I would then like the query to display the relating price for the record it pulls out. (EG for custID 'AAA' and item 21, it would display the price of £5 as that is the value for the most recent price as of 01/06/2005) I then want to link the custID & itemcode to another table that has sales in, to check that we are using the most recent price.
Is there a way I can do this via a query or do I need to put some code together?
First let me say, I've search this forum for as long as tolerable looking for a simular problem as mine and could not find one. I am sure this isn't the first time this question has been asked.
I have taken a few Access courses at a local college for my own personal use and have discovered that the courses albeit expensive, just covered what appears to be mere basics.
At this time, I do not understand SQL or VBA. Nonetheless, I have created a database to organize my four bookcase library.
The library consists of books & mags, records(33's, 45's and 78's), DVD's, VHS & Digital tapes, CD's(Music and software).
I have created tables for Books/Mags, Video and Music. All of which pulls required data from a list in other tables such as mediatype (Book, DVD, Record etc..), location(C1S2R which has a description field as Case 1 Second Shelf Right side area) and Genre(Country Music, Video Sci-Fi, Fiction Reading etc...).
When I query on a field such as Title, it brings back the desired results. However, when I query on a field where the data was import from another table such as Genre, the result is an empty table and yet the record truly exsist.
For instance this is the criteria I used Like ["Genre"] & "*" When prompted I typed V and expect at least one record that had Video Sci-FI listed. The result came back blank. When I just hit OK then the whole table would display and sure enough the Video Sci-Fi record would be there as well.
This is true of all the fields/data that has been pulled into the table from another table. I have tried many combinations of the criteria command to no avail.
If I can get this part to work I can quit biting my nails (or should I say nubs)
