I have a form that opens a subform with a list of work orders by who they are assigned to. I would like to be able to close any or all of the work orders. When I close them, I need the timestamp to be updated, but I can't seem to figure out just how to make that happen. Any ideas?
I'm very new to Access and this may be a REALLY simple question but ...
I have an Access 2000 db on a web-based server and a website form that inserts a record. Everything works properly but I now need to insert the date each time a record is entered. These records will not change or be updated once entered. I think there must be a way to have a hidden field in the web form which submits = Date() or whatever the right code would be.
The field I'm sending the date to is called "dateOfEntry" . Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance.
The Timestamp Field I have is formatted like this: 11/4/2014 5:56:46 AM. The field name is [Timestamp] it is in a table named INPUT_RedSheets_Plates. I have a query right now that pulls in certain fields from this table based on criteria of the [Type] field Like This:
There is a button on the form that allows users to send email with the form as an attachment in pdf. I'd like to create a date/time stamp in another table called tblLog. Trouble is the code works uptil sending emails but it doesn't record the stamp.
I have a simple data entry form on which there are about 30 to 40 data fields to be update by users. One of the field is called "Stage" which is a combo box with 2 entries "Formal Case" and "Informal Case" with no default value whien a form is first opened.
Users will normally create a data entry which updates the table and save.
However if in future users open any one existing record and try to change Stage field from Informal to Formal or vice a versa I would then like this action to
1) update a time stamp concatinated with the stage change value in a text field perhaps
2) save/close the form
3) open a new form with all the existing entries(plus changed status of "Stage Field") with a new record ID and new time stamp.
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?
First, let me point out that I am a new Access user, so apologies ahead of time
I have a form which has a field called 'Initials'. I want this field on the form to default to whatever was last entered (into the table called 'Main Table'). I first tried setting the default value with a DLast command, which seemed to work for a day or so, but then it returned values from mid-table - very strange
I then set up a query which does return the value of the last Initials entered (cunningly called 'Last intials entered'), but I can't get the field in the form to default to this value - it comes up with #Name?
Can anyone help, or have I not explained myself very well
1) I Created a button that imports data into a table (Hours) 2) I created a query that finds duplicates in that table 3)I created a form put the button on said form 4) I dragged my query from explorer window onto form 5) I click button, code runs to import data into table however query on form doesnt update, I have to close and then re-open the form, obviously this is no good.
Hi, I've spend ages reviewing the relationships between my tables and changing my query but cannot get this to work. I've read alot of the posts on the subject also but trying to apply the suggestions to my problem hasn't worked.
It is a database of engineering drawings. A drawing can have one or more revisions. I have written code to import the drawing and revision info into the datebase so when the drawings are actually received I need to be able to add the additional data in tblReceivedDrawings such as the tracking number, date received etc. These are my tables:
I have created a query called qSelDrawingsAndRevisions which combines tblDrawingRegister and tblDrawingRevisions.
The form is based on a query called qSelIncomingDrawings. This query joins qSelDrawingsAndRevisions and tblReceivedDrawings. It shows all the records from qSelDrawingsAndRevisions and related records from tblReceivedDrawings and is joined on the drawingNum and Rev.
Adding the extra info e.g. tracking num, date received etc about drawings that are in tblDrawingsRegister works fine. However if I want to add a completly new drawing I get an error message: "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot find a record in the table 'tblDrawingsRegister' with key matching field(s) 'qSelDrawingsAndRevisions.DrawingNum'
How can I get it to update the drawingNum in tblDrawingRevisions and tblDrawingsRegister at the same time? Is it an issue with my query or relationships? Or do I need to write an OnUpdate procedure for the DrawingNum textbox so that it created a new record in the DrawingsRegister table to correspond with the one in the DrawingsRevisions table? I have a feeling that this might be overcomplicating it and that I just need to change the query?
Am very confused about how to approach this and would really appreciate a few pointers...
I have made a form based on a query that pulls information from 4-5 tables. I would like to be able to change information in those 4-5 tables by using that form, but I am unable to do it. I opened up the properties for the form and set "data entry" and "Allow edits" and "allow additions" and "allow subtractions" all to YES. That didn't help.
Is it possible to do this, since the form is based on a query? I couldn't figure out a good way to set up the form getting the information directly from the four tables. I'm not sure why it's been so difficult.
I have one table full of all of the various titles I have. The tables are related using those titles, and each table has a different sort of information for each record. So, the "main" table is "ALL TITLES," but when I go make a form, I can't get ALL TITLES to be the controlling table. It's very frustrating. But a query works beautifully--I just can't change anything.
(I would like to have the form be a "user-friendly" way for people to make changes.)
I have a table holding clients data, I need it to work out the age of someone when an application is made, which I would like to be stored on said table. I have two fields [DOB] and [signed date], which I have used created a query with and an (unbooud?) field called age at application with the expression =DateDiff("yyyy",[DOB],[Date signed])
This works fine when I run the query, but I am unsure of the new next step of how to commit it to the table and even if that's possible.Ideally I would like this to run behind a form maybe using some click event after the [signed date] field has been entered.
I am building a Inventory Management Application for Tyre Shop. I have SaleMainTbl and SaleDetailTbl both used for preparing daily sale summary. I have Mainform based on SaleMainTbl with TxnDate and Total Amount (Sale) and the TxnDate is in one to many relation with SaleDetailTbl. FormSaleDetail is multiple row(continuous) form that makes billwise summary of each day having -TxnDate--BillNo--ItemSold--Company--Qunatity--Rate--Amount fields. I have inserted this form in FormSaleMainTbl.
So FormSaleMainTbl is Main form and FormSaleDetail is subform. TxnDate in FormSaleDetailTbl is automatically taken from SaleMainForm. I have further added text boxes in Main Form to show company wise sale for each day for which there is a query build one for each company that takes the currently loaded date from FormSaleDetail and calculates the Sale (Sum) of each brand (Company) of Tyres. All these objects are working very fine. However I have to close the MainForm and reopen it for result of query to appear in the appropriate text box in Main form.
Is there way to do this as soon as record is entered or at least at the end of completing the entry of each days sale transactions without closing the form. So the gist of the problem is realtime display of query result in text box on a form or updating the form screen immediately on updating any record or at the most after completing the updating of form but without having to close the form.
I have set up an ACCESS database of journal articles. Each article has one or more authors. I have created a form listing the article title, the name of the journal etc. Included is a subform listing each of the authors. The authors are listed in the order that their names appear in the article. I wrote a query to sort the articles alphabetically according the name of the first author (in the subform). The main form is based on this query so that all the articles are sorted according to the name of the first author. However, the query uses the “First” feature in the “Total” row on the query. The use of this feature precludes me from updating information in the form that is based on the query. Is there a way around this problem and if so what is it?
I am new at programming within Access, and I am trying to develop a simple database that will record a timestamp when an order is placed. I have tried the Now() function, but that will record the timestamp on the desktop which can be changed manually before entering the record. Is there a way to record a timestamp using a Unix server or another desktop from access?
I have a timestamp field in a database and only want to display the Date. In the query I placed this: Date Received: Format([RItemTimeStamp],"Short Date")
Works fine however if I try to run a query to serach for a date range it doesn't give me all the days.
I then tried this: Date Received: DateValue([RItemTimeStamp])
but get the message that the this expression is typed incorrectly or too complex. Here is the entire sql statement for this query:
SELECT DateValue([RItemTimeStamp]) AS [Date Received], Count(EARNS_Data_tbl.RTransaction) AS [Total EARNS Received], Format([RItemTimeStamp],"Long Time") AS [Time Received], Count(EARNS_Data_tbl.Earns_Processor) AS CountOfEarns_Processor FROM EARNS_Data_tbl GROUP BY DateValue([RItemTimeStamp]), Format([RItemTimeStamp],"Long Time") HAVING (((DateValue([RItemTimeStamp])) Between [Forms]![PowerUserForm]![Start_Time_audit] And [Forms]![PowerUserForm]![End_Date_audit])) ORDER BY DateValue([RItemTimeStamp]);
Hello, I am a noobie. I am trying to create a text box on a form where when a user clicks/focuses on it, it jumps to the next line and automatically adds a date and time stamp so that there is a time record for each message following it. Thanks!
So i am using a forrm to add records to a database and I need to know exactly what time that particular record was added. How can i add a timestamp and have it be added as part of a record without the user seeing it on the form that they are filling out? Thanks for any help that can be given.
I have a table with timestamp as one of the columns. I am having to use a passthrough query on this table to get a few other fields which are not available on the access front end. Now i am trying to filter those records based on a date range. But the passthrough wont let me give the date range! This is what i tried:
Code:
SELECT intake_taken, staff_7, accept, Reason_for_Rejection_party FROM DBA.case_intake WHERE matcode = 'S S' AND accept='N' AND intake_taken BETWEEN '06/01/2011 00:00:00 AM' AND '12/01/2011 00:00:00 AM'; 2nd try:
I have a field in a database that captures the Timestamp in a format of m/dd/yyyy h:mm:ss AM/PM. I have a query that need to extract the short date from this filed and sort it in an Ascending matter. I have the following in the Filed query: Date Received: Forma([TimeStamp],”Short Date”) but when trying to sort over a date range of 04/01/08 to 04/18/08 the data is not sorting correctly. Any ideas how to resolve this?
