Update Field In One Table From Another
Dec 14, 2004
I need to update a field within one table based upon a value from another. The problem is after i have setup the relationships the field i need to update will not work.
I have enclosed a screen shot of the relationship and field layout.
I need to update the field" registered with"(tblhistory) using the data within "clubname"(tblplayers) ,this field is updated from clubname(tblclubs) via a relationship.
Please help at a loss.I am not sure whether i need to change the design and relationship side of the database.

I have started work on a database to track the many (several hundred per annum) projects my company undertakes. A 'main' table lists projects, their fees, their key dates, their project numbers, etc. I have created another table for tasks. Each task is assigned to a project (via the project number), and may be 'open' or 'closed'. I have separated the tasks table from the projects table as there may be several different tasks for each project. It is also good to keep a record of the tasks.
I want to prepare a report from the projects table that lists projects IF they have any open tasks.
In my mind, this means 'If a task, with the corresponding project number, is open, put a 'Yes' in the 'Tasks open' field of the Projects table.'

I have a table called Inventory (table1 - PK=INVID) that contains all inventory ID numbers and descriptions. I have another table called Inventory Transactions (table2 - FK=INVID) that gets updated through a form. When a new transaction is made in table2, I want the transaction amount to get added or subtracted to an OnHandQty field in table1. I tried having table2 (transaction table) as the main form and then table2 as the subform, but I couldn't get table2 to update.

I have a table products with a field "id_product" and "total" (Total items in stock)
I have a query with the fields "id_product" and also the field "total in stock"
I want an update query to update the field 'total' in table 'products' with infos from that query
For each id-product in table products, replace the field total with the field 'total in stock' from the query
So I want to update a filed in a specific table with infos form another table.

I have an "order details" table that needs to populate a field called "Voucher" with data from another table called "codes". The "codes" table also has a true/false field called "allocated" because once allocated the code cannot be re-used.
I am trying to work out how to automatically allocate the next unallocated code in the "codes" table to each record in the "order details" table when that order details record has a DiscountID of "92".
Order Details Table Fields and conditions/criteria:
ID - primary key
DiscountID - only when the DiscountID = 92
Voucher - only populated when Discount ID = 92
Codes table Fields and conditions/criteria:
ID - primary key
code = text field with a code like "einstein01", "einstein02"
Allocated = False
Is there a way to put the next available code into the order details record then mark that code as allocated in the codes table. Then, move on to the next order details record that has a discountID = 92, input the next unallocated code and mark that code etc. etc.
Ideally, I would like to do this to happen via an event when the Order forms button "Close" is clicked.

Some days ago I made it by using "query", but now I forget it how I make the relation on this situation. Here is my problem.I have 3 Table on mdb file, named Table: A, B, Status.Table Status have One Filed with 1 Data: Dishonor
Table A have three fields
Sl Number: (Auto Number)
Status: Lookup wizard-data of (Table-Status)-Default Value is "Honor"
Amount:Number
Table B have two Fileds
Sl Number: Number
Status: Lookup wizard-data of (Table-Status)
After Entering Some data on Table A it's Look like as:
Asl numberstatusamount
1Honor5222
2Honor855
3Honor988
4Honor7777
5Honor777
6Honor9999
[code]...
Now I want to change the Status of SL Number Honor to Dishonor so I fillup data on Table B is as like following
sl numberstatus
5Dishonor
Now how I can get the result as following by using query:sl numberstatusamount
1Honor5222
2Honor855
3Honor988
4Honor7777
5Dishonor777
6Honor9999

I'm trying to update one table's field, via a Form, with certain data from another existing table in my DB when I enter key data in this first form. Example:
Table Equipment ... Some columns... Year, Make, Model, LIcPlate, etc.
Table Fuel ... Some columns... Year, Make, Model, LicPlate, Fuel Dispensed, Milage, etc.
Form for Fuel has Year, Make, Model, LicPlate, Fuel Dispensed, Milage, etc. BTW, it will take Year, Make and Model to fully qualify the search/lookup as there may be more than one occurrence of a Year and Make in the Equipment table, so Model is necessary to fully qualify. . Yes, something like VIN would be a simpler lookup but remembering a VIN is much harder than entering a Year, Make and Model.
In a Form over Table Fuel, I want to have the LicPlate field (possibly other fields as well) automatically updated from Equipment Table when I enter the Year, Make and Model in that form.
I'm assuming the solution involves creating VB code, of some such, via an Event (AfterUpdate) or some such built through the LicPlate field in the Fuel form. A mass Update via SQL is not appropriate.

Ok. I've got a table named SIPATable and some of the fields contain summed values. Let's say for instance I have a field named "GaDRaw", which represents a raw score. now...I need to update a field called "GaDPer", based upon the value in "GaDRaw". So...If "GaDRaw" <=16, then I would want "GaDPer" to be updated to = 35. Further, if "GaDRaw" = 17. then I want "GaDPer" to = 37. and so on....
I think it's an If Then Else statement, but not sure how or where to place it. Id like it to be as code under a command button, and update the table all at once.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

I have to update a field in a table with some values from an excel file. Before I update the field in Access, I want to check if there are any letters stored in this field that I just imported from excel in a separate table. If there is logic, where do I run the code in what event property so it will check all the records at once?
Thanks

I have the following situation.
Table 1:
------------------------
Primary Key
Name
Secondary key
Table 2:
------------------------
Primary Key
Age
Secondary Key
*****************************
This is just an example. The first table is totally populated. The second table does not have the secondary key assigned, but otherwise is populated. In additon, some of the records in Table 2 do not have a matching entry in table 2.
I would like to be able to update table2, populating the Secondary Key field in order to allow me to delete the Primary Key fields. The Primary key was assigned by somone else who created the db, and makes no logical sense, i'm trying to replace it with a key that can be used more easily. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a simple MyAddress Project. It consists of one main table, a couple of queries, some forms and reports. Most fields in the table are typical text fields. The project allows me to select records from the table and print labels for those selected records. One field is a "yes/no" field. If the field value is true, the label prints; otherwise it does not. I have a form which allows me to scan the list of records and mark those I wish to print. So far so good. I am trying to add two buttons to the form to enable me to 1. Clear All and 2. Check All. I am trying to use an UPDATE statement to activate when I click the appropriate button. However, when I execute, I get the error message "Compile error: Sub or Function not defined".
The name of the table is tblMyAddresses.The firld I am trying to UPDATE is PrtLbl.The update value will be true or false depending on the button clicked. Since I want to change the values in all records, there is no WHERE required. The code I am trying is as follows:
Option Compare Database
Public Sub CheckAll_Click()
Update tblmyaddresses
Set PrtLbl = False
End Sub

I am currently trying to add a last updated field for each field on my table. I figure I would have to add a before update code for each field on my form. However, the field that I want to have updated is not located on my form, but just on the table. I would like to have the field on the table updated with the last user and time the field was updated.

Hi,
I have a parts table with a field that holds a vendor's name which is selected from a combo box on a parts form. I've just noticed that if a vendor name is changed on the vendor form the field in the table isn't updated. I now have to go through all parts to adjust any changes done to the vendor name. Is there a way I can automatically update the vendor name in the parts table if there is a change done to the Vendor name in the vendor table?
Thanks

I've a form with comboboxes and listboxes on, which populates a table with data. The cbo or lbo are bound to the relevant table field.
Unfortunatley, there is one lbo that just wont update the relevant table field.
I've tried lots of different settings and etc, following advice reseacrhed from these forums.I've even tried copying an lbo that does work, all with no luck.
Has anyone ever had similar experience? If so, how do I get out of it?
Cheers

hi there
I am having some difficulty with using Access (aren't we all?) ;-(
I have a table with a the following fields: START_DATE, END_DATE, RENTAL_PERIOD, DAILY_COST & TOTAL_COST.
What I am tring to achieve is that when someone fills in the START_DATE, END_DATE & DAILY_COST fields (which update the table behind the form) that the form will take the END from the START and put the result into the RENTAL_PERIOD field and then multiply this by the DAILY_COST value to automatically fill in and display the TOTAL_COST field.
It must be simple but I just can't get it to work and it's stopping me from sleeping :mad: I have found myself doing Access in my dreams which is not good!!
Any tips much appreciated - Thanks
Mike
PS I have written 2 queries which will calculate this for me but dont seem to be able to action the queries from within the form (if that helps!)

Hi all,
I have two tables and one of them (table1) has two fields called
pct_id and pct_name.
table2 has the field pct_id.
I also created a new field in table2 called pct_name.
What i'd like to do is set table2.pct_name=table1.pct_name wherever
table1.pct_id=table2.pct_id automatically.
Is there a query that can check to see if its the same and update table2?
Heres what i tried but it didnt work
UPDATE table1
SET table1.pct_name=table2.pct_name
WHERE ((table1.pct_id)=(table2.pct_id));
Thanks in advance

the record is from a query where as the field is unbound, still we need to insert the values from record and this field at the same time into another table..
example: i have item master and item production table.... from joining these table i get a query which will give me item A and prod qty .. when i use this query as form datasource, the detail section has these two fields.. now i want to have an unbound field budget.. so i have the followig in detail sectin

Hello,
I am a basic/intermediate user of Access. I have been given a small assigment to
update a field (the primary id field to be exact) in one of my tables based on the choice
selected on my combo box on my form.
Tables:
Survey_Answer (N/A, yes, no, Dev) with sur_ans_id being the primary id. (this is the
table that I am using to populate or pull information in my combo box. sur_answer: The NA, yes, no and dev.
tblSurvey: has foreign key sur_ans_id.
Therefore, when the user selects yes, no etc. from the combo box , it is supposed to pull the id (1 or
2 or 3 or 4) based on the choice and update table Survey's sur_ans_id.
Currently when the choice is made, it duplicates values (even though i have for my row source for the
combo box: SELECT DISTINCT sur_answer FROM Survey_Answer in the Survey_Answer Table.
My Main code to update I have put in On change under the combo box property is:
Public Sub DoSQL()
Set dbs = CurrentDb
Dim strSQL As String
strSQL = "UPDATE Survey " & _
"SET Survey.sur_ans_id = (SELECT Survey_Answer.sur_ans_id FROM Survey_Answer WHERE cbosur_answer.Column(0) = Survey_Answer.sur_answer)" & _
"WHERE Survey_Answer.sur_ans_id = Survey.sur_ans_id AND Survey.que_id = Question.que_id"
DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL
End Sub
However, this is not working: I know it has something to do with my BOUND COLUMN count property but that is mostly where I am stuck. I cannot
update Survey.sur_ans_id properly. I understand the concept of BOUND COLUMN but i don't know how to apply it to my SQL statement.
I am sorry for the long narration but any help or guidance will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

I would like to update two fields [Category] and [ProdType] in tblAccum based on a reference table.
The reference table is tblReference and contains the fields [Code], [Category] and [ProdType].
tblReference example of field values:
Code Category ProdType
A Blank Accessory
BS Blank Blank Stock
O Printed Offset
So if the Code field in tblAccum has a value of O then based on the tblReference table the Category value would be Printed and the ProdType value would be Offset.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I am programming an Acess Database, the primary data come from an excel sheet. Since Access one to many relationship only works for primary key and another field in another table as foreign key, I can't have normalized database.
I will explain what I mean with a hypothetical situation.
So, let's say I have two tables: WindowT1, CustomerT2.
WindowT1 has fields: WinID (the pk), WindowName.
CustomerT2 fields include CustID (pk), CustomerName, WindowName, WinID.
So, in table "CustomerT2', WinID is the foreign key and I need that field filled in to make one-to-many relationship between these two tables to work. CustomerName and WindowName will be imported and prefilled already from an excel file with append query.
My question is can I make a update query (after the initial append query that brings in the data into Access) such that the criteria is matching WindowName (from CustomerT2) and the update would be the corresponding WinID (the pk number from WindowT1) that would be filled in the field WinID (in CustomerT2)? I know for this to work tables must have relationship and I did that.
Is there a better way to accomplish this task? i.e. through a form (remember info will be prefilled, so can't use combo box to fill in another form field) or maybe can I do this using the first append query (that brings in data)?
I am not good at Macro or VBA. The only thing I have done in code builder is After Update event in forms while using combo boxes. So, if there is no easier solution, I will try to deal with codes.
