I have two main forms which are essentially the same apart from some command buttons, one form to enter data, one form to view data.
These forms also contain about 8 subforms, in Data Entry mode (for the data entry form, funnily enough).
Problem is, obviously when I open my form to view records, the subforms don't update as I flick through, due to them being in data entry.
What's the easiest way to prevent this problem? Obviously I'll need to turn data entry off, but was wondering whether there's a more elegant solution than either creating 8 duplicate subforms with data entry turned off, or using about 50 lines of code to turn Data Entry off/on every time.
Can anyone tell me what code I can use to manually enter data from a textbox. I don't want a bound box, but want to write some code that will take the text from that text box and enter it into a field in a table when i wish it to.
I have a table in a database where the telephone numbers are in two separate fields, i.e. [123] (which is the areacode) and [456-7899]. Is there a way to take the two fields in this table and put combine these two numbers into one field so the new field will be in this format.... [123-456-7899]?
Please help. I have create the below code in red but what is the mistake.
If DCount("[product_code]", "PRODUCT MASTERLIST", "[product code]"= " & Me.Product_code& "'") Then MsgBox "This Product Code has already exists!!" Cancel = True Me.Undo Exit Sub Else 'Do nothing End If
How to give a VBA code for duplicate records is without entry in Subform datasheet. I just used in the screenshot code but that is not working properly. how to change a vba code for without entry duplicate names.
First I would like to give thanks to all the knowledgeable folks here who have helped me with my DB to date. It is working and every one is very happy and I have learned a lot.
So now I would like to add some more functionality to this existing project.
My DB is for data input of customers for a drawing. It has the following fields: Id, account number, first name, last name, date/time, score1, score2.
I t is taking a great deal of time for the users to enter in hundreds of entries a day. Most of the entries are customers who are already in the DB. I would like to get the fields to auto fill the data for existing customers say after the account number is entered. So after you put in the account the name and any other pertinent data would shows up saving users from typing it in again.
The first problem I am having is that this is still a data entry form and I can’t figure out how to be able to see the account information and still add new data to the record? The new data is a daily score they get.
Second I haven’t figured out how to call up the customers information from just the account field.
I’ve googled this and haven’t found anything terribly helpful.
I an trying to create a data entry form (IndividualsEntryFm) to input data for fields such as (First Name),(Birthdate) etc., these to be saved to the (IndividualsTbl)
I also have another table (NamesTbl) which has family names etc. The two tables are linked by a (MainID) field. I want a combo box on the individualsEntryFm so that I can select the family name. Then I wish the empty fields for the IndividualsTbl to be available to enter data.When I press the save button I then want this data saved, together with the MainID from the combo box to the IndividualsTbl.
I have set the IndividualsTbl with a (PersonID) field as an auto number each individual therefore has a unique PersonID but may well share the MainID. I'm trying to link many people to the same address.
I want to use the same form in datasheet mode for data entry and retrieval. When retrieving, all controls are disabled and locked. I am trying to enable and unlock them for modifying but that isn't working.
My aim is to have my forms open to a new record, which I have done, but if my users need to then update or edit data in previous entries, they can click a button that allows this.
My thoughts were to add a button, then put in code so that the necessary properties changed the form from displaying a new record or records entered since opening it, to showing all records in the associated table....
As an example there is a table for purchase orders. When clicking on this from the main menu form, it opens up the purchase order form to create a brand new PO. At times though, we will need to revisit an order to attach a copy of an invoice, or update the cost of whatever was purchased.
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).
My db has multiple linked tables. As time passes and work on a project continues data needs to be added to a separate table that is linked to the first table to be populated.
i.e., Initial design data is entered first, when drilling is complete more data is added to a linked table, when drilling is surveyed yet more data is added to the second table.
What I want to be able to do is to query for a particular set of existing design data, display this on a form and on the same line enable data entry to other fields from other tables which are linked to the existing design data.
I have a shared db where there is a requirement for more than 1 user to enter data in the same form and hence the same table. Up till now there has only been 1 data entry clerk so there has not been a problem.
Would accessing the same form by different users cause a problem, assumming they are inputting different records?
This has most definitely been asked before but I really cant find anything on the forum! Ive created a data entry form which has a save button which the user must click each time to save the record. However how do I refresh the form i.e. empty all data from the previous record without exiting the form. Ive tried to combine the undo macro but that simply deletes the previous record. Any help please!!!
I have a textbox on my form that is for "week of", always a Monday. There is vba to populate the appropriate Monday when the user selects something other than Monday via the date picker. This code is in the on change event. However, this is not friendly to a user entering a date in this field. I did try after update event, but that requires user to leave the "week of" field. This is not acceptable in this instance, there are other form fields that change as a result of this "week of" value.I also tried evaluating the length of the text or else exiting the code. However, I was expecting the date being returned from the date picker to always be 10 positions, but for March 3rd, it would return 3/3/2015...which is only 8 positions.
We need to enter the string INCL as a data value in one of our tables. When we try to exit the field, Access keeps changing it to INCLUDE. This occurs whether the value is entered via a form or directly in the table. I assume it is doing some type of autocorrect based on th spelling. There is no VBA code associated with this field.
I am doing a project which currently requires me to input a new file we just got. However, the dates on all of them, as in the field containing the dates, displays something like 20030608 instead of June 8, 2003. I was thinking I could just run the file through a looped vb array to go through the information, reformat it, and then dump it into a new column.
I would like to turn a cell red in a query - is this possible or can this only be done in a form or report. I have created a table with medical information and want the cell to turn red when blood pressure entry is greater than 140. Not sure what and where formula should be entered.
I have been tasked with replacing an external database in house and obviously the external database has multilpe tables joined by various id fields. I'm assuming when they created the db they were assigned autonumber qualities etc to create unique numbers.
However, I can't replicate that in mine. I have the external references for existing data fine. But ho do I now create a new record with a unique number in the existing field.
I tried setting it to primary key and/or no duplicates etc but it's expecting me to enter a number.
I imagine I've got to set some kind of loop to count from one and matech it and then when it finds a number not currently in use it'll stop and use that but how to do that........
Hello, I have a query that returns a list of courses undertaken by certain employees. They are in the format NPTC CS 30; NPTC CS 31; NPTC 33; NPTC FTC 38; NPTC FTC 40 etc...
Anyway what I need to do with this is convert these results to a string and manipulate them in such a way that they can be displayed in a text box on the back of an ID card in the following format:
NPTC CS 30, 31, 33, NPTC FTC 38, 40... etc.
Because there is not enough room on the back of the ID card to use a subform to just display them in a list...
I'm filtering a sub form in datasheet using an option group frame, and the on click does exactly what I want it to do.However, Once I'm done filtering, I can either set the filter to all ...
Code:
Case 1 Forms!frmmain!frmtoplinelist.form.FilterOn= False Or click a Button "Remove Filter"
Code:
Private Sub btnClear_Click() Me.frmTopLineList.Form.FilterOn = False End Sub
(I've tried both references to the subform too... "Me." and "forms!etc. However, the subform filter isn't switching off.
im doing my ict unit 7 edexcel ict exam atm and as one of the tasks we have been asked to generate the testid. the test id consits the year a underscore and then the number of the month so for example if a test happened this year and this month the test id should be 2013_5. i can get the year and the underscore into the code to generate the testid but im not sure how to get the month to change to a number so for example if i select may from a drop down the code needs to take that and generate it into a number.
I have a file structured as listed below. I need to pivot Patient Id, Patient Name, Send Reason, Provider Name and Visit Number into columns and then insert the values into the corresponding columns.
My data set contains about 1,000 rows, so I cannot simply paste special in Excel.
Patient ID 111111 Patient Name Doe, Jane Send Reason Cannot resolve provider Provider Name Doe, John Visit Number ABCD#F1234567
I have tried Pivot and Transform, neither of which seems to work.
