There is a field with yearly salary in it and another with an ID number. Recently these slaaries have been increased by a non-standard amount. I have another table with the emplyee ID number and their new salary. I need to update the slaary figure in the first table with the salary figure in the second table. Is there anyway of doing this?
Any help would be most appreciated

Hi there people...i'm doing a databae project for A2 level coursework and have encountered a problem..please help me if you can.
I have a table of names. Also another table (actions) which contains several fields, but 2 of them are names, (1 being Proposer, and other being Actionee), are obtained from the names table.
However, when altering for instance the spelling of one of the names in the names table it does not update the spelling in the actions table. i have tried using the relationship-update option but this doesn't work because the names appear more than once in the actions table. if it were to appear just the once in the actions table then i wouldn't have any problem. but it is a requirement that the 2 names fields are in the actions table.
Any ideas of how to solve this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIm using Microsoft Access 2003 and have a form 'frm_contacts' linked to a source table 'tbl_contacts'. My frm_contacts form has a button which when pressed opens a popup form 'frm_hottarget' of some additional fields from the same source table. The frm_hottargets form contains the field 'State' which is the same field in the frm_contacts form.
What i want is to have the State field from the popup frm_hottarget form to change to the value of the State field in the frm_contacts form as soon as the button is pressed. At the moment, the only way i can get the State field from the frm_hottargets form to change to the same value as the frm_contacts form is to close both forms and reopen them, or click the next record button and then back record button from the frm_contacts form.
Any ideas? Cheers
Hi,
I need some help, I’m trying to update 1 database which is in SQL on one server with data from another database which is on another server There are around 8000 records. It is taking for ever updating the data via MS Access Append Query and Update query. Do you know if there is any other faster way in code, which can be updated? Maybe in a loop doing 100 records at a time or any other suggestions.
Reason I need a faster way is the data on the SQL database is needs to be updated is linked to a website with data in , while the data is being updated the website crashes.
I would really appreciate your help.
Thanks
Hi,
I have a table with many records, and I would like to update for one of the fields, the same information as in the first record. Keep in mind that a group of records have the same attribute.
The same problem is easy to solve in EXCEL just by dragging down the info from the above cell - in this way you populate all the records with the same info as the first record, for a specific field.
How can I achieve this using ACCESS?
I want this:
FROM:
1 cost1 cost2
2 cost1
3 cost1
4 cost1
5 cost1
TO:
1 cost1 cost2
2 cost1 cost2
3 cost1 cost2
4 cost1 cost2
5 cost1 cost2
Thank you!
Ok so I have a table that has Customer Contacts logged into it. One of the fields in the table is Owner_ID. This field is a text field that contains the salespersons name that is the current "owner" of that account. Because of the business that I am in, this field can change many times within a given quarter (I will be updating every quarter). For duplication purposes (i bulk upload records from excel worksheets that the salespeople give me) I have my primary key set up as contact first name + contact last name + zip code. If I have to update lets say 400 records just to change the owner of a certain customer contact, how can I do that as a bulk import?
My first thought would be that I would have on my excel sheet the 3 fields that make up the primary key along with the 1 field (owner_id) and it would autochange the information in that particular record....but obviously I don't know how to really do this.
Please help. :)
i have a query which find all the records of stock that are similar. I want to count how many of these there are. How would i go about doing this?
I then want the user to type in the system they want, how many they want, and this will "remove" the system from the list, but not from stock i.e. makes it unavailable. The query is been created from the stock, and so everytime the query is run, it would overwrite the "unavailable stock". If any one could help, this would be great!

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

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.

I have a database I created. its has Units, then it has Tracts and under tracts it has Leases. the main form is for the units. then I have a sub form which is tracts. in the tracts there is a field for Leases Vol/Page. everything works great. now I have a client that wants to send me Title opinions which are for several of the leases in the tract sub form. I need to input the info in a form and have it saved in fields in each Lease at one time.
Right now I have to goto each lease and insert it every time one by one. the field for each lease is the Vol/Page field. is their a way I can do this without having to goto each lease one at a time.??????? in other words one title opinion might be the same for ten of the leases I need to update these all at once.
I have one form and its consists of some records. I will assign one button to that form. when i click on this button this record need to save to in another table or query. How to do this. I want to create a receipt that's why i am asking this question.
View 1 Replies View Relatedhi all,
I have this database I'm working on and have a couple of issues I can't work out.
The first is this, I want to have my sub forms go to the last record when moving through the main form, currently I can only get this to work when I open the form?
If I move through the records in my main form (forward and backwards), the two sub forms go to the first record only, so how can I get them to go to the last recor?
I've attached the DB to show you what I mean.
Thanks in advance

I have this table "tblPreventativeMaintenance" which calculates when the next appointment for service. Stored in the field "NextDueService". I have three fields in this table. "SerialNumber", "NextDueService" & "Engineer'sReport".The whole purpose of the table above is to do the calculations.Now the results of the calculations I need them to go into another table "tblInstallations" so I can use it to show Next Due Service when there is a call out in regards to certain ready installed equipment. I have same fields in both tables.I tried update query but for some reason it didn't work or at least wasn't giving me the results I needed from it.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI created a new form with two subforms. They each reference their own table but are linked by a field called Case_Name. I created a unbound combo box in the main form to allow filtering of the records based on Case_name and I do a requery when the record is found. I am importing data from another application into the three tables ( main with other fields, as well as other tables ..Case_Name only).
The form/subforms are then used to modify or add new data to the existing records in each table/subform. The problem I have is when I go to update/add data in the subforms, it comes back and tells me that it cannot add data due to data integrity. It thinks I am trying to add a new record with the same Case_Name. I have the forms and subforms set up as Data Entry = No so that no new records can be added. I only want to modify existing data as the records are created from the import process.

I have a database too big to upload here at the moment, however i have a main data entry form that is based on more than one table, what i want to do is create an email form either as html or info point and have this form emailed out so that my colleagues can then fill in thus on its return add records to the database.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI currently have a database that is missing various pieces of information, we are getting a temp in to complete this. I don't want the temp adding data directly into Access so I have exported the table that needs updating into Excel.
How can I then import the new data without altering current data.
I know this is no problem for new records, but if I have a current record with a few fields of information missing how can I just import information into the blank fields. This can't be a manual process as there are hundreds of records.
Any comments would be much appreciated!

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.

I was wondering if what I'm trying to do in Access XP and 2003 is possible. I've looked at countless templates and samples and havn't seen anything like what I want to do to be able to construct it. I've tried manipulating queries, relationships different table joins but to no avail. I'm only a beginner in VBA and know little SQL, I would be truly gratefull if someone can please shed some light on the below.
I've been creating a preventitive fleet maintenance database in access and want to make some changes that will make the database more flexible.
What I have is a main form which has the following main fields from the tblWorkOrder; WorkOrderID, FleetID, StartDate, FinishDate, Odometer, and ServiceTypeID.
Within this I have a subform in datasheet view (tblServiceItems, fields; ServiceItemID, ServiceDescription, ServiceCompleted(checkbox)) and this lists all the service items that belong to the ServiceTypeID in the main form.
I have another table called tblServiceDetails and this has the fields WorkOrderID, ServiceItemID which join the above two tables.
My problem is that I can't get the subform to list all the records that are in the table tblServiceItems, it only shows each record if you go through and select it manually. What I want it to do is to show like a listbox and allow me to go through the list and check of those service items once they have been completed. On top of this I want all those service items for that service type to be recorded against that workorder (regardless of completed or not) so then when I create a report on a WorkOrder It will list all the service items showing the checkbox's of which services have been done.
I've tried to do this with a listbox, but It doesn't show the checkbox, only yes or no. I've also tried using the tblServiceItems as the subform but this only updated the table and didn't create a record in the table tblServiceDetails matching it with the workorder.
Any idea's please...
i have developed an access database and working on interface through forms & reports .i needed that a user must have to click save button to update the data and i have found that without an unbound control its hard to achieve functionality .so i want to know step by step how to update records using unbound controls and a save button .
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a table with entries describing a sequence of Tasks (tblTask)
tskID TaskDescription
10 Clean Room
12 Wash Dishes
etc
I have second table called Steps (tblSteps) that is related to tblTask via the field "StepNumber" which is a concatenation of [tskID] & "." & [StepOrder]
So if we look at washing dishes as a task then the steps are as follows:
StepID, StepDescription, StepOrder, StepNumber
202 Put plug in the sink , 1, 12.1
512 Turn on tap, 2, 12.2
205 Put in detergent, 3, 12.3
210 Place dishes in sink, 4, 12.4
435 Turn off tap, 5, 12.5
etc
If I decide delete the third step I get the following:-
StepID, StepDescription, StepOrder, StepNumber
202 Put plug in the sink, 1, 12.1
512 Turn on tap, 2, 12.2
210 Place dishes in sink, 4, 12.4
435 Turn off tap, 5, 12.5
Is there a simple way renumbering the StepOrder entries when one step is totally removed to give me the following?
StepID, StepDescription, StepOrder, StepNumber
202 Put plug in the sink, 1, 12.1
512 Turn on tap, 2, 12.2
210 Place dishes in sink, 3, 12.3
435 Turn off tap, 4, 12.4
