I am trying to run a simple update query to copy data from one column (Addrl1)to another column (Working_Addrl1) within the same file and I can't for the life of me figure it out. Then I need to repeat for addrl2 and addrl3 to working_addrl2 and working_addrl3.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a form that displays an updatable subform. The main form has search fields and a search button that when clicked will reset the record source of the subform and then do a refresh. The problem is that after the search the subform stops becomes locked. Here is the code:-
Me!sbfDepartmentSub.Form.RecordSource = MySQL
Me.Refresh
I have tried Me.Requery also.
Hi,
I have a data entry form that is based on four tables which are linked by a field 'fileno'.
I am now trying to enter new records via the form and update the four tables but i'm not permitted to do so. It seems that all the fields are locked for display only.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

I created a form with a query as it's source. I am able to open the tables themselves and update them, but when I go to a field on the form I'm unable
to update. What could be wrong since I have full update rights to these tables? I've checked the properties and they appear to be set correctly.
I'm trying to have the user select an item from a combo box which gets its values from a table with multiple columns. Once something is selected in the combo box the form will auto-update the adjacent text box to a value in the same row (different column). The combo box is called 'Media' and the text box is called 'Tape Cost'. When you select a type of tape in the combo box the adjacent text box should populate a value determined by the second column of the table. Instead I'm getting a message that the, "Method or data member is not found" and it highlights the red text below.
Here is the code I'm using:
Private Sub Media_AfterUpdate()
Me.Tape Cost = Media.Column(2)
End Sub
Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Thanks!
I have a form which is based on a query which selects information from three different tables. All fields apart from one are locked, all are enabled. The table the field I wish to update is native to the current DB i.e. is not a linked table.
when I activate the form and try to click on the Check box, which is not locked, I get a beep but it does not change state.
I am using Access 2007 on win7 Pro.
Trying to update a field in a record in my form after selecting from a comboox.
This an orders form with a record per row for order items. I select the product from a dropdown list which is populated by a dynamic query from the afterupdate event on another combo. When I do the selection access reports the following error:
Runtime error 3331
to make changes to this field, first save the record
Debug takes me to the line :
Me!product_id = DLookup("product_id", "products_table", myvar)
from :
[code]
Private Sub comboProd_description_AfterUpdate()
Dim strFilter As Integer
comboProd_description.Value = comboProd_description.Column(1)
myvar = comboProd_description.Column(0)
Me!product_id = DLookup("product_id", "products_table", myvar)
[end code]
I'm lost as to what to do (no such thing as beginners luck!!). I'm not even sure if the error is from the combo box or from the field that it is trying to update (product_id)
Thx for looking
Kev.
I am a very new Access user. Just getting into it. I have created a database and want to do something that seems simple to me but I can't figure it out.
I have a database containing membership information for a local fishing club.
I want to be able to create a situation where I can do the following.
Enter a membership number and have the members info displayed so that I can then make any changes and update it. I want to be able to do this one member at a time so that I can update as changes come in.
Can anyone help.
I see a lot of really interesting ways to do this via code as an automated action, but what I can't seem to find is how to do this manually?? I will look into the automation at a later time and probably use some of these wonderful ideas. For the moment, however, I just need to know a simple way to update my front end table after I have redesigned it in the back end. MSAccess help files can't seem to point me in the right direction. I've already changed my back end table, but can seem to make those changes reflect in the front end. I would appreciate any help with this, thanks.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello. I'm trying to design a simple database for a bicycle recycling charity. I hit a brick wall when realising that I had never before attempted to update a record. :eek: Until now I've just used Access to add new members to a bus user's organisation.
If the shop takes delivery of 20 tyres, I need to add 20 to the current stock.
Is it possible to achieve a simple Form that adds to or subtracts a quantity from current stock, or do I have to learn some access programming?
I've looked through some textbooks and can't find a simple update solution.
Thanks for any suggestions. :o
I am trying to update the value in one field (RUS Prop Class Document) of a form based upon what is selected in another field (RUS Prop Class Code). I plan on this being a hidden field so I was creating an after update expression in [RUS Prop Class Code]. My problem is that the value returned is the very nice and working query but not the value of the query. I'm missing something that I think is simple but cannot figure out with my limited resources and late hours.
Here is what I have for the after update expression in [RUS Prop Class Code]:
Private Sub RUS_Prop_Class_Code_AfterUpdate()
[RUS Document].Value = "Select [tbl_List of RUS Classifications].[RUS Prop Class Document] " & _
"FROM [tbl_List of RUS Classifications] " & _
"WHERE [tbl_List of RUS Classifications].[RUS Prop Class ID] =" & Me.[RUS Prop Class Code] & ";"
End Sub
Thanks ahead of time
Hello,
I am still wet behind the ears in regard to Access so your help and support is much needed.
I have created a form in Access where i am having trouble with a textbox. In short this box is called [Shift] i want it to be populated by the result the system returns in another Textbox which is called [Time], this box is set up as Time().
So below is what i need it to do when the Form is used.
Textbox: [Time] = (07:00 - 14:59) would return "Earlies" in Textbox: [Shift]
Textbox: [Time] = (15:00 - 22:59) would return "Lates" in Textbox: [Shift]
Textbox: [Time] = (23:00 - 06:59) would return "Nights" in Textbox: [Shift]
I have tried the VBA below without success in this task so i can only assume it is due to the fact that the Time field is system generated or the fact it is in time format:
Private Sub Time_AfterUpdate()
If Me.Time >= "23:00 And < 06:59" Then
Me. Shift = "Nights"
End If
End Sub
Any Help you give is much needed, Thanks
Hi... I searched quick, didn't find anythign, but you guys are so responsive... :D
Question:
Part 1. On TimeSheet form, I want to click to "create new job", and the Jobs Form opens, at a new record. Currently it opens at record 1.
Part 2. I foresee that when I return from the modal job form, the old form (timesheet) would not have updated the combobox to show the jobname I just entered.
I guess this is what subforms are, because I keep reading about them, but dunno what they are.
Thanks

I've done this tons of times, so I don't understand what's happening... The title says it all: when I update the ID of one record of the main table, the referenced records on related tables won't update even though they have a relationship between them with the option "Cascade update" clicked.
In the attached database, the main table "Expedientes" is related to table "Actuaciones".
I created a table to keep contact information such as address, phone number, and email address of instructors. I also modified the New Instructor Entry form to add an email address, since we usually have this when hired.
The problem arises when no such information exists for an instructor. I have attached a "sample" database with all the important components and "sample" data.
When I choose an instructor in which some contact information exists, the Instructor Contact Entry form performs as expected. On the other hand, if no information for an instructor exists, the information can be entered, even though the Employee Number, Family Name and Given Name fields are blank, contrary to the first case. Not only can the information can be "saved" but no data appears in the table.
How do I have to set this up to get it to work for an instructor not in the table?
I am currently unable to delete any data from my table. When I highlight a row and right-click, the option to delete the record is grayed-out. I have deleted and recreated the table and relationships, saved the database as a new file, and compacted and repaired, but I am still unable to delete anything.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi, I'm trying to connect to SQL Server Express from MS Access 2003.
I've created an ODBC data source and tested it within the ODBC Wizard. It successfully connects to the SQL Server database.
From within MS Access, I choose File > Get External Data > Import and I'm presented with a dialogue for choosing the data source. As soon as I choose ODBC from the Files of Type drop-list, the dialogue disappears. No error-message, nothing!
Has anyone else had this problem?
I am working with two forms frmManager and frmMMeasures where based on selection from the combo box of frmManager of the department, position and staff member frmMMeasures is loaded where MUserLoginID and MPositionName is populated based on selection from frmManager. This is what I use to populate the MUserLoginID field for the control source " =[Forms]![frmManagers]![cboStaff] ".
My problem is when I go to the next record on the form those two fields do not change from what was picked up from the form frmManager.
I don't know how to ensure that the correct data is displayed.
it is zip file unable to get the size lower yet minimal amount in database I have 2 tables and one form when I create an query on the form the form then becomes that I cannot enter data in it or edit etc
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Union query that is linked into about 10 different excel spreadsheets on our drive and it pulls back only 3 columns of data (Document Number, Date Registered and Date Implemented). I then have another report which refers to the results of this query and does its own thing from thereon.
Here is a sample of the SQL:
SELECT CINT(RIGHT(RT_01000.[Rev-Trac Number],5)) as [Document Number], RT_01000.[CC_RT Issue Date] as [Date Registered], RT_01000.[Actual Delivery Date] as [Date Implemented] FROM RT_01000;
UNION SELECT CINT(RIGHT(CC_RT_01000.[Rev-Trac Number],5)) as [Document Number], CC_RT_01000.[CC_RT Issue Date] as [Date Registered], CC_RT_01000.[Actual Delivery Date] as [Date Implemented] FROM CC_RT_01000;
My Issue:
As it is above, the query will run, but we end up with duplicate numbers in the "Document Number". It only brings back the final 5 digits from each of these files and ignores the differenciating part of the number, the "CC_RT_" or the "RT_". This causes huge issues in the file which then goes onto use these results afterwards.
My Plan: (failed)
I thought I could simply update the "5" to an "11" to catch anything named "RT_00001" and also "CC_RT_00001" serperately so I can clearly see which is which without any duplicates. However, I recieve the below error when doing so:
"Data type mismatch in criteria expression".
I've been playing with this for hours and unfortunately many many reports reply on these results being correct. It is also not possible to change the names of the RT and CC_RT files that it links into.
I want to say update set field1 = field2
But field1's data type is Number and Field2 is Text. (Field1 is fed by a lookup table). Am I doomed to go through the 700 or so by hand, gurus, please?
I would like to run a query and then be able to edit that information. I want the data I change to be put into the table the info was gathered from. Right now when I edit the query data it only saves it there, not on the other table. I tried to do the copy to table but the original table was going to be erased and then written over. What should I do? thanks
