Transfering A Formula From A Form Into A Table
Nov 21, 2007
I've built a table and used it to build a form. One the form I have three boxes, one to enter the DoB, and two others that record the age and also put the individual into an age bracket.
In the latter two categories I have entered a formula in the Properties Box under Data & Control Source (the formulas are below) to automatically work out what the age and age bracket is when the DoB is entered. This works fine but the information isn't transferred back to the table.
Do I need to do the info in the table first and then update the form? And if so where do I enter the info in the field properties in the table design view?
=Int((Date()-[DOB])/365.25)
=IIf([age]>=50,"50+",IIf([age]>=35,"35-49",IIf([age]>=25,"25-34","16-24")))
Many thanks in advance

I am creating a database for a hyperthetical car hire company. I have a table for the customer details, a table for car details, a mid table with current car hire information. I want to create a table for previous car hire information. Is there a way that i can transfer the details from the current car hire table to the previous car hire table without copying and pasting? (when the customer returns their car)

Hi there, this is probably a very simple problem for people with experience of Access, however i have been having problems with being able to tranfer information from a query to a table.
I have made a query which displays a number of different items with their prices and who bought them (ie. booking ID)
I have then made a query which asks for the booking ID, then once you have input that it searches the items and adds up the price for all the items which that booking ID has.
both these queries work fine. The problem i am having is that i want to transfer this total price into a table. I have been able to do this by manually typing into the sql code the price, however when i try to get the query to collect the price itselfs, it gives the error
"operation must use an updateable query"
btw i am making the query as a update query,
sorry if this post is a tad long and messy,
thx in advance for any help

I have a subform within a form that displays filtered data based on dynamic selection criteria which is assigned to the RecordSource/OrderBy of the subform. On this form, I have a "Print Results" button -- OnClick, I would like the RecordSource/OrderBy of the subform to be copied to the Report, then run the report. What I have that doesn't work is:
Reports!rpt_frmTaskMain.RecordSource = Forms!frmTaskMain.frmTaskSub1.RecordSource
Reports!rpt_frmTaskMain.OrderBy = Forms!frmTaskMain.frm.TaskSub1.OrderBy
On execution I get error: "Object doesn't support this property or method"
I am thinking this can be done, and likely have the references wrong. Help?

Hi
I am creating a database but I am having a problem with one little bit (so far!!)
I have form (and table) 1 and form/table 2. When I am in table 1 (which is company details) I want to be able to click a button which will open form 2 and allow me to enter a new record of incoming mail details regarding the Co. selected in form 1.
I have made a relationship between the Company ID on both tables.
I cannot seem to work out how to make Access take the Co ID no from form/table 1 and stick it into form/table 2 when I push the button.
Can anyone offer any advice??
thanks heaps
Siobhan. :p

I have two fields on a table that has numeric values.
I'd like to create a third field where i would just like to divide the two numbers, multiply by 100 and display the results on field three.
I can't use forms or reports as i need to be able to export this information to excel.
Can this be done?

I have a form that has 3 fields each representing a different table. I want the sum of 2 of the fields to update the third field. The third table has an existing value in it, but I need it to change when the formula is executed. I have a formula embedded in the form and can make the formula work, but it doesn't update my table. How can I make it do this? :confused:

I'm sure this is a simple issue, but so simple I can't find the answer.
I have a recipe DB and have calories and fat and fiber fields, I want to have another field which will display a point count for a formula (calories/50+Fat/2+fiber/5) but the catch is if the fiber number entered is over 4 I only want the calculation to use 4 max.
Not sure how or where to create this formula to populate a field in the DB.
As you can tell I'm new to all this and any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Hi everybody.
I'm trying to secure the table records in my db. I'm looking for something that will allow me to input regular text from a form and then once the form is closed it would add texts to the record that is stored in the table record.
Example: Input "HELLO" into form.
Table record would show record as "xegaHwueEoieLwoiLiwoO"
Also, recalling the text would also have to be able to revert the jumbo text back to regular texts also. This would be needed for forms and reports.
Any help, much appreciated.

I have a database I inherited that I'm trying to do some clean-up on. One of the things I want to add is a text box on the startup page that tells users the date of the most recent record in the DB. The date field is stored as "Batch Posted Date" (already yelled at them for spaces) in a table called "Adjustment Data."
I tried using =Max([Adjustment Data]![Batch Posted Date]), but I get #ERROR. I thought it might be a problem because of the spaces, so I wrote a query to pull the max value of the date, and tried dlookup. When I try =DLookUp("maxofbatch posted date","qryHighDate"), I also get an error message that says #ERROR.
I'm a bit new to formulas in Access, can someone help me out?

Hey All,
This may have been covered already, and if it was I appologize. Searched for it but couldnt find it.
Any how, I have a large table of records (problem is its growing). It lists customers and dates. My table has way to many records, so i need to condense it a little bit. What i need to do is transfer contracts that have been fulfilled (by date) transfer to another table that contains records of contracts that have been fulfilled. I want to do this by a push of a button, automatically transferring any records that the date has passed to the pastcontract table.
Any ideas? Im not quite sure how to proceed.

I am currently studying for my A levels and need some help with microsoft access. What I want to do is transfer information from one table in my database to another. When it transfers however, I want it to alter under a certain validation. This is what i want to do;
Admission numberArt
011649
011650 F
011651 B
011652 C
011653
This is an example of the information. The letters regard to a GCSE result. I want the grade to be transfered to a table called "point score". Each grade has a value, A* = 8 points, A = 7 points, B = 6 points and so on. When the data is transfered to the point score, I want it to just state the point score and not the grade. Can anyone help?
Cheers

Hello everyone,
I am still trying to solve the following problem:
I am trying to transfer data from one table to the other in a different folder using the follwing command:
Private Sub Commandtransfer_Click()
DoCmd.TransferDatabase acImport, "Microsoft Access", "D:DBSsewertvinsp.mdb", acTable, "tblSanTV", "tblSanTV"
End Sub
By using the above command I could be able to transfer "tblSanTV" table from D:DBSsewertvinsp.mdb to another table in a different folder but it transfer the table and data together. But that is not what I want to do. All I want to do is to transfer the new data from one table to existing data in another table. These tables have the same names but different field names.
I tried the following command to solve my problem, but I end up with more problems than solution:
PPrivate Sub Commandtransfer_Click()
DoCmd.TransferDatabase acImport, "Microsoft Access", "D:DBSsewertvinsp.mdb", acTable, "tblSanTV", True, "INSP#; MAINLINE ID#;US MH ID#", "tblSanTV", True, "INSPNO;MAINLINE; SAN_MH_FROM"
End Sub
In the above command, I was trying to import data from "D:DBSsewertvinsp.mdb", tblSanTV" table to the general database. But I want data in the field "INSPNO;MAINLINE; SAN_MH_FROM" in "tblSanTV" goes to the corresponding fields in general dabase "tblSanTV" table, fiel "INSP#, MAINLINE ID#,US MH ID#" consecutively.
I want somebody help me out with this issue. Please help me. Thanks.

Hello everyone,
I have still an issue with tranfsfering data from two tabels to another two tables which have parental relationship. A while a go on this forum someone have suggested to me to use the append query but that only works to append to one table, which is not my case.
If I don't transfer these two tables together or at the same time, they will loose their relationship because of their relationship which is auto number.
I have tried to modify the append query SQL and didn't work for me. Please someone help me solve this problem or tell me other alternative way of doing this. Somone look at the following modified append query and see where I made a mistake or cannot do it this way:
INSERT INTO tblSanTV ( INSPNO, MAINLINE, [US MH ID#], [DS MH ID#], [ADDRESS#], [STREET NAME], [CROSSING STREET], [FL TYPE], [P SIZE], [MT TYPE], [MH DEPTH], [P LENGTH], [SITE CONDITION], REVERSE, HEADING, [INSP DATE], [TAPE#], [TAPE START], [TAPE STOP], [INSPECTOR NAME], [PROJECT NAME], [PROJECT NUMBER], [REP TYPE], [REP PRIORITY])
INSERT INTO tblSanTVmk (DISTFROM, DISTTO, [COUNTER], [OBS TYPE], CATEGORY, DIRECTION, [SC PERMIT#], COMMENTS, [PHOTO CLIP] )
SELECT SANTV2.[INSP#], SANTV2.[MAINLINE ID#], SANTV2.[US MH ID#], SANTV2.[DS MH ID#], SANTV2.[ADDRESS#], SANTV2.[STREET NAME], SANTV2.[CROSS STREET], SANTV2.[FL TYPE], SANTV2.[P SIZE], SANTV2.[MT TYPE], SANTV2.[MH DEPTH], SANTV2.[P LENGTH], SANTV2.[SITE CONDITION], SANTV2.REVERSE, SANTV2.HEADING, SANTV2.[INSP DATE], SANTV2.[TAPE#], SANTV2.[TAPE START], SANTV2.[TAPE STOP], SANTV2.INSPECTOR, SANTV2.[PROJECT NAME], SANTV2.[PROJECT#], SANTV2.[REP TYPE], SANTV2.[REP PRIORITY], tblSanTVmk2.DISTFROM, tblSanTVmk2.DISTTO, tblSanTVmk2.COUNTER, tblSanTVmk2.[OBS TYPE], tblSanTVmk2.CATEGORY, tblSanTVmk2.DIRECTION, tblSanTVmk2.[SC PERMIT#], tblSanTVmk2.COMMENTS, tblSanTVmk2.[PHOTO CLIP]
FROM SANTV2 INNER JOIN tblSanTVmk2 ON SANTV2.[INSP#] = tblSanTVmk2.[INSP#]
WITH OWNERACCESS OPTION;
I tried to modify the append query to the above format but didn't work. I even tried "inner join" to put the above table together but I could be able to make it work. Anybody knows how to solve this, please help. Thanks.

Hi all,
A nice easy one for you. I am creating a database, one of the fields is total cost. Is there an easy way to have another field, which calculates the VAT without using a query? I would like this done as soon as the total is entered.
I have done this using a query, but didnt like this way.
I am sure there must be a very simple way of doing this but it has escaped me.
Help

I've been trying to put a formula in a text box within a form, with not much successes.
What I want the formula to do is:- From the Date field in the form, if there no date entry's then display a Blank, if there is only one date entered, I would like it to display the time in week since that entry. But if there are multiple dates entered I want it to display the Ave time between the dates, in weeks. BUT only as far back as 12 months. Any dates further back can be ignored.

i have 3 databases containing data in the same format.
basically i work in a school, and have a database for 3 different classes.
each database has a table containing the childrens details(table a), and a linked table (through primary key in table a) to targets and points scote for each week.
--table a--
child number
name
carer
address
etc
--table b--
index
child number (linked)(displayed as childs name in table, but stored as a number)
week starting
target 1
target 2
target 3
points 1
points 2
points 3
etc
now this database has been working really well. but if ever a child has to be moved class then i need to be called to transfer the records manually (because nobody else can do it) and i have to get the records manually and copy and paste them between databases. This works fine and i've had no problems. And the auto number in table a is changed from the original. but this seems to automatically corrolate to table b when i paste that over. so everything is working fine.
but....
first of all, it creates lots of work for me when kids move classes, and also if i'm not there nobody else can do it.
so....
i've tried using an append query to transfer the data. I tried using 2 append queries (1 for each table).
but....
it works fine for table a, but i'm having trouble with table b.
the append query for table b pastes all the records into the equivalent table on the other database through searching all records related to childs name on table a, therefore retuning all records in table b for that child.
the problem.......
when this data is transfered it transfers table a data fine. but table b is fine except for the fact that it doesn't transfer the childs name data (number), which i can kinda understand, but from what i can understand, my queries are doing the same thing as if i was to cut and paste manually and it works fine when i do that.
ok so its all very confusing, and i hope ive explained adequetly.
oh and btw, i can't put it all in 1 database, because each class may need to access the database at the same time.
thanks
