I'm new to access, but not new to databases in general. I'm having what should be a common problem/question, but I cant seem to find much on it.
For example, I have a standard table, with ID, text and a "yes/no" (lets call them booleans). I've made a query for that table - of only records with the boolean to no.
I have a form which displays the query. If it i put the boolean to yes, it still stays on the list until the form is opened and closed. This could be useful but if I want it to do it right away, what should I do? I didn't see any simple VB or macro command anywhere. Should i script open and close? Use a SQL command to update.
hi guys i have a list box which has 4 columns that come from a query. when a user double clicks a selected item, i want the frmUPdate to open with the selected item; it gives me no error it just always goes to the 1st contract . have no idea what else to try...
here is the code:
Private Sub List33_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
Dim rs As Object
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmUpdate"
Set rs = Forms!frmUpdate.Recordset.Clone rs.FindLast "[ContractID] = " & str(Nz(Me![List33])) If Not rs.EOF Then Forms!frmUpdate.Bookmark = rs.Bookmark
This is my first post, but I've been lurking for sometime. I'm grateful for all the great advice given here; despite my efforts, I can't find anything directly related to what I'm doing, though.
I have a form that is populated from a query. The query has some calculated fields and some direct selection fields from a couple of tables. One of the direcly selected fields is one that I'm trying to populate from the items in a list box.
On this form, there are two list boxes, List1 and List2. The user makes selections in List1 and clicks a command button, which runs code so that the second list box is populated with the items from List1. This was shown here:
MS Article (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnofftalk/html/office03022000.asp)
I actually just used this code and made changes accordingly so that this feature is working perfectly. However, the items in List2 need to be updated into a table's field, and this is where I'm having the problem.
I've got List2 bound to the proper field in the query, and I can manually run that query and make changes in that field fine. What I can't figure out is why I can't get the ItemsData property of the List2 control in there. For ease of code, I've added a line that copies the List2 rowsource variable to another variable so that the values can be used elsewhere. I can't seem to get the field to receive the variable in VBA, and I can't figure out how to get the values back into the query so that the query's source table is updated.
Any clues? Or is this unclear? I'm happy to give any further information. I've been working on this for more than a week, trying different things, and I'm at wits' end.
I am designing a nomination form (web database so no vba macros can be used).
The form has 3 combo boxes: cboStaffName, cboLevel, cboNominee.
The form is bound to the tblSubmit table where the submissions are populated.
I used a select statement:SELECT Staff_List.Staff_Name FROM Staff_List; to populate the combo box for the Staff Name selection.
This is the select statement to populate the job level combobox:
SELECT Staff_List.Level, Staff_List.Staff_Name FROM Staff_List WHERE (((Staff_List.Staff_Name)=[forms]![frmtest]![cboStaffName]));
The select statement to populate the combobox for the nominee combobox:
SELECT Staff_List.Staff_Name FROM Staff_List WHERE (((Staff_List.Level)=[forms]![frmtest]![cboLevel]));
The problem is that the staff_name in the first combobox is still found in the nominee combobox which should not be because a staff cannot nominate self. There is a field in the Staff_List called YesNo that should be activated for each staff that is selected so that the select statement on the nominee combobox can be updated accordingly to remove items with the field "Active"
How to get the checkbox selected for each corresponding staff.
hello, I have a list box and I use this to add stuff to the list. I loop through the recordset to add all the items to the list box i use this: Me!RecordList.AddItem Item:=rst("id") & ";'" & rst("name") & "'"
It works, but it brings up the message box for every entry. Anyone know what's wrong and how to get it to work? This is part of a search, as the user is typing in the search box, for every character he/she hits it searches and displays search results in the list box. Is there a more efficient way of doing this? Thanks.
I am working on a database for a bowling tournament. I'm currently working on a form where the user selects from a combo box bowlers' names for doubles pairings. I thought that as a helpful tool I would also display a list of available remaining bowlers once the combo box information has changed.
I'm trying to write a module for the combobox_change trigger. What I'm having trouble doing is pulling the updated recordset from the base form and using that to update the availability box -- in other words, how can you query data from the recordset underlying an open form before the form is closed and the data is saved to the tables. The only way I can do this now is to temporarily close the form, manipulate a recordset from the table, then re-open the form. There's got to be a better way. Maybe I'm just missing something here.
I'm creating database that will display about 6000 different names. My question is how can i insert a last name into the last name field, and have the first name of that specific person automaticlly filled in in the field next to it titled, First Name. The answer is probably simple, but i'm as stupid as they get right now. I would like to thank everyone in advance for their help!
I am using a combo box in my form. It is a growing combo box allowing new entries to be entered to create a growing list.
When new entries are made to the combo box list they are only displayed when I quit the form and then return to it. Is there any way I could allow the combo box list to grow dynamically rather than having to get the user to quit the form and then return to it?
i have created a form and its working correctly. however i have just been informed some of the fields needed deleting and different ones put in their place. so im just wondering if there is anyway to updated the field list so i can just add the new fields without having to recreate the whole form.
How I can insert the email address from 'Newemail' into my existing customer list 'masterlist' i.e. contact email of ID 1 and 3 :confused: ? I would like to ignore ID 4-5 from the 'Newemail' table. And I would like to keep ID 4 from the 'masterlist' table.
I have a list box populated with record ID's all of which need a date field updated. I have been succesful at using the list box to update single records, but am not sure how to transfer this idea to work with multiple records simultaneously.
The code i am using is:
Private Sub Command13_Click() Dim i As Integer Dim strSQL As String Dim sMessage As String Set db = CurrentDb() Dim sTitle As String For i = List10.ListCount - 1 To 0 Step -1
I need to construct a very complex student/coach/time/day Database.
Every student can attend a lesson twice a week, on a particular day and time with a particular coach.
Every coach has his/her own time table (Days available, times available on those days).
So I want this effect on a form:
Day: Monday Coach: Jack Time: 10:00
So Coach is dependent on Day, Time is dependent on BOTH Coach and Day.
I got the first one working but I am stuck on the second.
I created a Table for every day of the week (Mon through Friday) and have each coach's name as the "header" of a column, in that column I have the times they are available:
Code:
Jack - Roy 08:00 - 09:00 08:20 - 09:20 08:40 - 09:40
In my form, in the event procedure of the second list box I have the following:
Code: Select Case [Swimming_Day_1] Case "Tuesday" [Time_1].RowSource = "SELECT [Coach_1].Value " & _ "FROM [Tuesday Times] " End Select
But now when I select for example "Jack" in the "Coach_1" List box, the "Time_1" list box lists 3 entries of "Jack", not "08:00, 08:20, 08:40" respectively.
How can I accomplish the above without having to create a separate Day/Times Table For each and every coach (There are 8 coaches and 5 days, and I want things as easy as possible to update coaches should there come extra or some leave maybe).
I am trying to make a simple database where the data entered in a form will update to a table. My issue is, one of the fields is manufacturing location where I would like the user to be able to enter multiple locations and then have those locations update the table where the record is stored. I've been able to set up a list box with multi-select but am stuck at getting the table to update with the choices made from the list box selection.
I have a basic form linked with a subform inside of it. The main form has a list of customers in a combobox and the subform lists all the things they have ordered from us. This all works perfectly fine, I can add data to the list of things ordered and it's ok.
I decided instead of using a whole extra form to add customers I'd just have a not in list event and allow users to add customers through there, bit more intuitive and cut down on forms.
It works to certain extent except one small problem, if I add a customer I have to close and reopen the form to be able to add/remove data from them in the subform. If I leave the form open and try to enter in data in the subform immediately it just shows whatever customer I had last on the combobox and adds it to the last customer as well.
It works perfectly fine if I reopen it so I thought it was some kind of query or update snafu but all the VBA code examples I found don't seem to do anything. Not exactly sure where to go from here.
PHP Code:
Private Sub cboDept_NotInList(NewData As String, Response As Integer) Dim oRS As DAO.Recordset, i As Integer, sMsg As String Dim oRSClone As DAO.Recordset Response = acDataErrContinue If MsgBox("Add dept?", vbYesNo) = vbYes Then Set oRS = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("tblDepartments", dbOpenDynaset)
I have a list (table) that I've created in sharepoint 2010.I link to the sharepoint table with Access 2010 to update mass amounts of items at once. Some of the queries have no problem updating the sharepoint items, but other queries require me to "Enter Paramater Value."
In this particular queries; I'm trying to populate field A with dates from field B, when field A is null.
--------------------- UPDATE Table 1 SET Table.[FieldA] = [FieldB] WHERE (((Table 1.[FieldA]) Is Null)); --------------------
When I run the above, I receive the "Enter Parameter Value" input box.All records have Field B populated (it's actually the created date.)
The goal is for field A to be populated with the values in Field B, without the query asking for parameters.
Note; I can go in each individual record and update them via access, one at a time. But it's the running of the update query that failing.
Here's a query that the bottom listview in the attached form i.e. a listview representing a table of calls(many) to fims (1 top listview)
Code: SELECT calls.id, calls.firm_id, calls.called, calls.said, calls.spoke_to, calls.next FROM calls WHERE (((calls.firm_id)=[firms].[id])) ORDER BY calls.called DESC , calls.next DESC;
When I run the thing...I get a dialog asking me for firm id.
I want to change this so when I move up and down the firms LV (top)... the bottom LV updates taking firm id from the top LV with focus.
I have a form that has combo boxes and text fields (as well as sub forms). There is also a button linked to some code that says'
Private Sub cmdQuote_Click() 'Creates quote date and prints quote Me.QuoteDate = Now() Me.cbAgentID.Requery DoCmd.OpenReport "Quote", acViewPreview, , "BookingID = " & Me.BookingID End Sub
When the button is pressed the QuoteDate field (it is bound) should be be populated, but unfortunately it is not. I have played with refresh and requery but cannot derive a solution.
I have a table with book information. I want to be able to change information in that table by using a form. Is there a way for when the form opens, to type in the books number to bring up that information so I can change it?
I have a table called Primary Employees and another table called Secondary Employees. I also have a form where you can add new employees, which updates the Primary Employees table. What I would like to do is, after I add a new employee have the new data update both the Primary and Secondary table at the same time. These tables have the same information within them. These two tables are currently relational to one another, but I still have to go in and manual update the Secondary Employee table after I add a new employee. I have to have two databases because of other form requirements. Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
I have 2 fields in a form called 'Employee No's' which use a combo box (this information for these comes from a query). However, I have another form called 'Employee Details' (this form comes from the same table as the query is taken from).
The 'Employee No's' form opens by a command button in the 'Employee Details' Form. However, what I need to be able to do is for the query (used for the combo box) to update with information I have just put in the 'Employee Details' form while I have not yet closed the 'Employee Details' Form.
Would I use an SQL statement for this? If so what would I put?
For some reason, after i added new records to my table, the fields on my form don't update... :confused: .. any idea why and how i can solve this problem ?
How would I go about updating a table from a form? My table consists of employee contact information, ie.. Cell phone, pager number, home phone. I have created a forum with unbound combo box called employee. As I choose the employee name all other fields are populating just as i want. After I update the form with the correct system contact information i want to be able to save the data and have it update the table. It appears the only data not updating the table is the anything in the combo boxes that are unbounded. Any suggestions?
Ok so ive built a form that a user can use to enter in data that will update a certain table.
The table has for fields: Email, Password, Active and ID.
In my form ive got rid of the active and ID fields as i want them to update automatically when the user fills in the email and password and hits the submit button on the form.
The only problem im having is getting my head around how i would update my other two fields once the user clicks submit?!
i was thinking that i could simply code the submit button to add the relevant info into the fields eg onclick active = 1 and ID = previous id +1 but im completely lost
I have been struggling with this for weeks now and it must be fairly simple.
I have a form linked to a table with the fields
number road town
and
partnernumber partnerroad partnertown
I input the first 3 fields and I would like to be able to click a command button and copy those 3 fields to the last 3 fields to save extra typing. I cannot get the command to work though.
