Updating Checkbox In Table With Query?
Jan 10, 2015I need to update a checkbox in a core table from a temp table. How can this be done?
View RepliesI need to update a checkbox in a core table from a temp table. How can this be done?
View RepliesMy database has a text field "Status" where the text is either, A, W, C. There is a form to update this field; currently it uses a standard Access created text field. The users want a checkbox which will show up as checked when the status is W, if the status is anything else, the checkbox will be blank. If the user clicks the checkbox within the form the status will be changed to W.
If [table.status] = 'W'
then checkbox = 0
else
checkbox = -1
and then somewhere on the update it would be
if checkbox = -1 then [table.status] = R
Except that Access doesn't think the way I do.
I have some VBA code that generates a query and saves it. The query is a list of people who will be sent a communication along with the formatting for the communication. After producing the query I want to look through it and decide if there is anyone I don't want to send the communication to. I can't delete records from the query without deleting them from the database or I would simply do this.
I thought I could add a checkbox in the query that I can tick to stop a communication being sent to that person. I only want the setting saved within the query and then when I have finished it be deleted along with the query.
Hello to everyone,
I have a colleague who executes a make-table query that reads a txt file. While doind this, he wants to convert two columns (binary format) to checkboxes (Yes/No format). Is there a way to do that?
Thanx in advance
I have a invoice system I have created in Access and it did used to work perfectly and then maybe an update Who knows stopped the system working.
I have an customer order screen that has customer details and then a subform within the same form this takes a total of items & costs for this order and then it entered it into the customers table from the order_Details table using me.Order_total = Order_Total.
I know this is bad design but I store it because once the order is places I need the total to be static because the invoice has been sent and so if someone changes the order then the total owed doesn't change.
I then have a reconcile form which is on a datasheet form straight from the tab;e so it is editable which has a checkbox that then once ticked copies the total from the Order_Total in the table to the reconciled field in the same table and then I use a report to show who owes me still.
So I have made a Select query from the Orders table & Order_Details table and used a Group by Order number (Which is the link between the 2 tables) this shows correctly but now not editable because of the rules So I am trying to add an editable checkbox on the same form.
I tried to use a dlookup makes all of the boxes either ticked or not. I've been looking at Recordsets but I'm unsure if this is what I need or not really
So really I just need to see if I should be putting the Total from the Subform into the mainform and then entering it into the table (Like previously) using a calculated unbound field and then using the Afterupdate event to insert the data into the table. but for some reason it just wont work.
I can get the OnClick to work but then as soon as i go to the next record for some reason it then resorts to 0.00 but then the table shows correctly which ever record the form is working on.
Or should I be using the new query based idea to create the reconcile form and if this is the best way I just don't now where to start on how to get a multiple table query that I can then add a reconciled checkbox which then copies the Order_Total from the table to the Paymet_Recieved field.
I'm using an UPDATE query to update records in one table (tblMain) from another table (tblTemp)
Here is my SQL :
Quote:
UPDATE [tblMain]
INNER JOIN [tblTemp] ON [tblMain].[MainField1] = [tblTemp].[TempField1]
SET [tblMain].[MainField2] = [tblTemp].[TempField2];
I only want to update the records in tblMain which have a corresponding record in tblTemp (linked by MainField1 / TempField1)
If any record doesn't appear in tblTemp, I want tblMain to retain the existing value for that record.
However, it appears that in such situations, the record in tblMain has it's MainField2 value set to null / ZLS.
I've tried using LEFT JOIN and RIGHT JOIN and also tried WHERE clauses but the result is the same every time.
Is it possible to update a query without updating the underlying table?

A) Select the proper criteria and and change the update query to the new salary and do it manually?....
B) Can I somehow follow option "A" but at the end select the proper "grade" under my update query and let that somehow change it to the new salary?...(with out me having to type the salary..but only the salary grade?)
C. Or can I just type the auto record under to the updated query . Under my update query to ??.
In other words I am trying to select a salary from me typing a record number or a salary grade field..
I have a query called providerIds

Everything works fine however when ever new data is added to a form
The data shows in the append query but not in the table where it appends to.
How do update the table where the append query is attached to.
I have a table and a query both of which have the same [Resource ID], [Resource Name] fields.
I am trying to update the [CBL_1_Date], and the [CBL_1_kW] fields in the table with the [CBL_x_Date] and [CBL_x_kW] fields of the query. The problem is that when I try to run the query I keep getting "Operation Must Use and Updateable Query" error.
here is the SQL Code
UPDATE tCBLAggregation
INNER JOIN qBestof4CBLs_avg
ON (tCBLAggregation.[Event Date] = qBestof4CBLs_avg.[Event Start Date]) AND (tCBLAggregation.[Resource ID] = qBestof4CBLs_avg.[Resource ID])

i want to update a field of the table from a field of query .
this is the syntax :
UPDATE tbl_PresentStockAll INNER JOIN qry_BroachStock ON tbl_PresentStockAll.ProductId = qry_BroachStock.ProductId SET tbl_PresentStockAll.Broach = [qry_BroachStock].[BalanceQuantity];
but i am getting error of "operation must use an updateable query".
I'm working on a project management database for my fathers small business. Data Entry goes as follows: Users enter a Work Order, and all the parts that must be created for that work order. The parts have different processes (tasks) done to them to be created. The database runs a simple system like this as we want it to work. I am now attempting to allow handling of more advanced work orders. Specifically, some parts require the completion of multiple other parts before they can be created.
Here is how the database should handle these events:
1) User clicks button named "requires other parts" when entering a new part.
2) On click a subform is opened that allows the user to enter which other parts need to be completed first.
3) Once all of the parts are completed the next part can begin.
This is my current solution:
1) A query calculates if a part is complete
2) Some form of logic looks up to see if all the required parts are completed. If the answer is yes, a field named ready changes to "Yes" and if the answer is no, a field named ready changes to "no"
I have a field in table A (used as my main form) that I would like to update with a unique yet understandable name. I have created a query that takes the first few characters of two other fields and the event date and concatenates them to a unique name.
Challenge is the three fields that create the unique name are in table B.
So I tried the following in query design just to see if I could update a field in the same table
Code:
Expr1: IIf(([EVENT_TBL].[EVENT]="Jacksonville" And [EVENT_TBL].[EVENT_DATE]="4/17/2011" And [EVENT_TBL].[EVENT_TYPE]="PRE-DEPLOYMENT"),([EVENT_TBL].[EVENT_TYPDTE_ID]="PREJACK170411"))
The results were #Error# in the cells.
I have a number hat has been calculated in a query which I want to be kept in a field in a table.

I created an update query that says it has successfully updated 600 records, but when you go into the table, it has not been updated. I am working with an .mde. Does that make a difference?
I first created a select query to find everyone in TX. Then I changed it to an update query to change all TX to CA. Since it did not update the table, I tried running the update query again and this time it says there are not records to update (since it uppposedly updated my 600 records).
Your help is appreciated.
Hi!
The structure is like:
C query is based on 2 tables, A and B.
Then D form is created based on query C.
What I did:
Now I split table A to 2 tables, A1 and A2, which are independant from each other, and I updated query C to retrive data from A1 and A2.
Problem:
Then the form D which is based on C doesn't work properly.
Question:
Do I need to recreate a Query C because I split table A?
or do I need to recreate a From D because Query C is updated?
Thanks very much
I am trying to edit an existing record in my database.It goes to the correct record to update but will not update if "RecordUpdate" is specified as auto numbered.If the "RecordUpdate" is just specified as a number in the query it is fine.
CurrentDb.Execute "UPDATE QryIssueData " & _
" SET RecordUpdate =" & Me.txtRecordNum & _
", IssueDate ='" & Me.txtIssueDate & "'" & _
", Equipment ='" & Me.cboEquipment & "'" & _

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 have created a 'junction' table between 2 many to many tables:
Jobs table (details all jobs)Jobparts table ('junction' table details Job ID, Part ID, quantity and unit price)Stock table (details all stock).The fields Job ID, Part ID and Unit price are each lookup fields from the corresponding fields in the jobs and Stock tables with quantity being a manual entry. This works fine.
I discovered you can automatically populate the unit price field using autolookup based on the entry of the Part ID field on the form. However having amended some pre-existing jobpart details randomly on the form when I checked back to the table they had not updated. Similarly when creating new entries while the form 'unit price automatically updated on entry of the 'Part ID' these details did not feed through into the table.
I assume it has to do with how the table was originally set up the field properties will need to be changed.
I'm a bit in over my head. Unfamiliar with Access macros, I need to write a bunch of them for work, and soon. Unixen I can deal with, largely undocumented convoluted Access macros are something else....
My current problem is: I have a table. The first column has a value in it for almost every row. However, there are six other columns after it. I need to write a macro to automatically delete all of the rows that don't have data in the last six columns. Microsoft Help is, as always, of zero use. The FindRecord feature allows me to use expressions to search, but of course, the help fails to tell me what syntax Access uses.
Oh, and it asks me to select a table from the drop-down list. Can I use wildcards here? Is there a way to get it to automatically open the newest table, or will we have to change the macro accordingly each month?
Most tutorials/guides I'm Googling rather brilliantly repeat the same things the help does, AKA, are useless. (Why do they bother writing them if you're not giving new information...?)
I'd ask about the other various access questions I have, but I can pick them up as I go, this is the most pressing question.
I have a list box whose data is inserted in a table named as "test0" ,now in a macro of vba i want to select all the items in the list box and create there pdf files in a folder at my desired location. So far i have managed to create a pdf file of single item ,but i want to select multiple items at once ,
Code:
SELECT test0.ID, test0.item FROM test0 WHERE (((test0.item)=[ItemNumber]));
So, in this query itemNumber are multiple and i want to create there pdf files at once ..just on a click of one button ?
1. I have a table which lists all of the equipment we use in our company and would like to use it as a template in a form so that users can select a checkmark if the equipment is being used that day. The checked items would then be used to populate another table which records all of the equipment the user has selected. I thought the checkmark method would be best so that the user can scroll through the list of equipment and select multiple pieces for the day. The reason I don't use a multi-value field is so that the user can also enter quantity and hours of equipment used in the same table when they scroll through the list.
2. Once all of the equipment pieces have been checked, I would like the user to be able to click a review button which would navigate to the next form with all of the selections for the day. This new form will have the option to go back to the first form if any corrections need to be made. And also have the option to submit the results.
3. Once the user is finished with their selections, the user can then select Submit which will finalize the recorded equipment table and clear the checkboxes and any inputs from the equipment template table (without modifying anything) so that it can be used for the next day and so forth.
I am using access 2013...
Thanks for your time to look at this... I am working a project that has some checkboxes on a form. I would like to have it so when a checkbox (Check1) is clicked and then the "Submit" button is pressed, it updates a form ("InputH"). I currently have the table set up with Yes/No data types. I need when submit is pressed for the Yes/No checkbox in the table is updated to show a check. Here is what I have so far:
Private Sub Command21_Click()
Dim update As String
If Check1 = True Then
update InputH.Table
Set Completed = (Hazard1 = -1)
Else
update InputH.Table
Set Completed = (Hazard1 = 0)
End If
End Sub
However, when I try to execute the scripting, I am getting an error: "Compile Error: Expected Sub, Function, or Property" and it has the word 'update' highlighted in the line: (update InputH.Table). What could I be doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Hello:
I have a "create table" statement as an action for one of my command buttons (on a form) within my access db. I can create a yesno field with no problem, my question is - how within the same "create table" statement or otherwise with code can I make the yesno field appear as a checkbox?
I can do it within the design view of the table once the table is created, but I want to do it on the fly. Also, I don't want to do this within a form, just on the table itself.
Thanks in advance

Hello!
i have a small for you probably problem! I tried to find something here but only bits and pieces could help only a little!
well here is my problem!
i have a form with a subform! the subform is a datasheet by a table!
In my main form I have a check box! what I want to achieve is to filter my subform by current date when i mark the check box and remove the filter when i uncheck it!
i could have it done by query or something but it was a last minute idea! thus i would have to change a lot of stuff doing it that way! the table is already filtered by a combo box record selector!
-----------------------
i have used a code but it does not work probably because there is no filter to activate!
Private Sub Today_Filt_Click()
If CheckBox = True Then Me.FilterOn = True
If CheckBox = False Then Me.FilterOn = False
End Sub
So could i put the filter parameter on the vba part???
any sudjestions????
Thank you :)
