I have a list box on a form and right now the list box lets me scroll through the names of people in my database. What I want to be able to do is click on one of the names in the list box, and then a set of controls adjacent to the list will be populated with data for that person so that I can edit and view their data. Is there a tutorial or person that can tell me how to do this? Thanks!
View RepliesI'm working on a report called Open Orders and when the database loads, it takes you to a Navigation Form. You make some selections mostly from combo boxes, then click run report which runs a query then launches the report.
I want the user to be able to click a check box called "Ready Only". If the checkbox = True, then I would like the field "Ready Pieces" in the query to have the criteria ">0". If the checkbox = false, I want that field to show all values (*).
I have no problem setting the criteria of a query field to equal that of a combo box value (Warehouse Like ([Forms]![Process Form]![Warehouse] & "*") but have problems when the criteria isn't the exact same as the value of the control.
Things I have tried to no avail: Putting a Iif statement in the query criteria: gives an error that criteria is too complex Creating an invisible text box whose value is determined by the checkbox to ">0" or "" then basing the Ready Pieces criteria equal to this....doesn't work Trying to use the DoCmd.RunSQL with my SQL code that changes via VBA when the checkbox is changed...Get an error and the SQL doesn't run
I have a form with two subfroms.
On each of the subforms is a text box (in the footer) which holds the sum of the values (Cost) on its form.
On the main form I want a text box which adds these 2 sums together.
I have maanged this by setting the value on the main form
Me!Textbox = Forms!mainform!subform.Form!textbox + Forms!mainform!subform2.Form!textbox
However its setting the value on Load - is there a way to set it as the control source so if the values change in the sunforms the mainform automatically recalculates.
I get an error if I try the above as the control source.
Thanks
On the form I need to give the user the option to select a 'from date' and 'to date' and for this I have put in 2 calender controls which have the same control source(same table column). The problem I am facing is when I select a date from one calendar, the other calendar control automatically populates with the same date and vice versa.
I need to have a functionality where 2 different date can be selected and then when the Search button is clicked, then data within the date ranges should be displayed.
what changes I need to make to acomplish this ? find a screenshot of the form attached.
I have a music database in which I keep track of my CDs and how many times I've listened to them. I have a report that uses grouping to show me the total listens for each artist for each year - the totals are in a group footer, with nothing in the detail section of the report. It looks something like this:
-------94-95-96-97-98-99-00-01-02-03-04-05-06-07-08-09-10-11-12-13-14
BAND1--00-00-00-01-13-04-03-00-01-00-01-03-10-16-04-04-01-00-01-03-00
BAND2--00-00-00-00-00-00-00-33-31-14-15-07-02-00-02-01-11-05-01-00-01
(The dashes are blank spaces.)
The first line is the column header showing years (last 2 digits for space reasons).
The second and subsequent lines are created in the group footer section, first is the artist name, then the Sum of listens for all titles by that artist in the year given ([Sum of Listens1994]).
This report works perfectly.
Here's what I want to do, and I can't get it to work:
In the above lines of data, let's say that the earliest title for BAND1 is from 1975, and the earliest title for BAND2 is from 2001. My yearly counts start in 1994. Therefore, there were listens for BAND1 prior to 1994, but there weren't any listens for BAND2 prior to 2001.
GOAL: Instead of showing "00" on the BAND2 line for years 1994-2000, I want them blank.
I've put a conditional format code in OnFormat for the group footer section, telling Access to turn visibility off for the text box control ([Sum of Listens1994] etc) if the [Earliest] field (which contains 2001) is greater than the year being displayed (1994 first, and so on). This, which seems like it should work, makes no difference. Oddly, if I put a F9 code break on the If statement, it never breaks, which makes me believe the code is never even being executed.
I do have prior experience with controlling field visibility in forms and reports, so the concepts aren't new to me. I feel like the big difference with this one is that it's in the group footer section rather than the detail section. [Access 2013]
I am trying to determine the state that a job is located in. If the ProjectID begins with a 2 then it is in California. If it does not then the job is located in Nevada.
State: IIf(Left([tblMainFrontierUnits].[ProjectID],1)="2","CA","NV")
What is wrong with this statement? I am getting a compile error.
How do I determine which forms, reports or other queries use a specific query in my entire database?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I have a sub, which shows in the Intermediate window who is currently logged to the database. This is my code:
Sub ShowUserRosterMultipleUsers()
Dim cn As New ADODB.Connection
Dim rs As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim i, j As Long
Set cn = CurrentProject.Connection
' The user roster is exposed as a provider-specific schema rowset
' in the Jet 4.0 OLE DB provider. You have to use a GUID to
' reference the schema, as provider-specific schemas are not
' listed in ADO's type library for schema rowsets
Set rs = cn.OpenSchema(adSchemaProviderSpecific, _
, "{947bb102-5d43-11d1-bdbf-00c04fb92675}")
'Output the list of all users in the current database.
Debug.Print rs.Fields(0).Name, "", rs.Fields(1).Name, _
"", rs.Fields(2).Name, rs.Fields(3).Name
While Not rs.EOF
Debug.Print rs.Fields(0), rs.Fields(1), _
rs.Fields(2), rs.Fields(3)
rs.MoveNext

End Sub
Now I want to provide this information in a table or other kind of output, when the administrative user presses a button on a form.
What do I have to do with that code? :confused:

Hi,
I have a form with 8 pages (tabs) on it. Each page has a Quit button which populates both a Form name variable and a Question name variable. When a user clicks the quit button the code forces the page name associated with the quit button. I would like to try and catch the same information if someone clicks the DB Close button(s) at the top of the screen. How can I programatically determine what page was/is open when the close db button was clicked? I guess I could create a switch that is populated when a page has focus and then call the last switch value. But I think that seems like extra programming, if I can just call the current page name/index. Is there something like the form name?
E.G.:
MyForm = Me.Form.Name
maybe an active page index or something? The problem is I won't know what page is opened at the time a close button is clicked unless I use a switch of some sort.
Thanks.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a multiuser database back end with approximately 25 tables. The file size for the back end has recently jumped from approx. 50mb to 270mb, but I do not know where the data causing this increase is placed. Is it possible to measure the file space usage (in mb) that each table contributes so that I can determine the source of the increase.

I have a form that shows employee license information. I also have a query & form based on that query to show licenses currently suspended. I would like to on my employees form to flash "license suspended" label if their name/record id is on the license suspension query. For all employees whose license isn't suspensed I would don't want anything to show. I can get the label to flash and to appear. I just need help evaluating the query and comparing it to the current record. Example I
if me.id = queryname.id then....execute label flashing, etc.
Can I write code to do this? Thank you
hey,
i have a customer form which includes a "Country" combo box.. the reason i did this is because i have a separate table with a list of countries and their VAT (Value Added Tax, you americans call it sales tax i think :)) rates.
i want this country saved in the customers table.. i need the country table to act merely as a source of data. Now ive spent a good hour tying to fix it messing around with the relationship between the two tables and the combo box itself.. but ive only been able to come to two end results
a) access tells me i cant save the new customer record cause a related record is required in the country table.
b) access enters a new line in my country table with the autonumber of the country selected on the add new customer form in the Country field.
im stumped as to where the problem is:// how can i fix it?
Hi,
I need a little help with my Query design.
I have an Arrival Date and a Departure Date for campers checking in on a campsite. I need to produce a report for the warden to have to check who's on site.
So far, the best way I though was using a new field in the query for "On Site" (which isnt in the control table) and then using an expression such as...
[Date of Departure] < Date()
However this isnt working, probably for some silly oversight on my behalf.
Any help?
Thanks, Adzi.
I am trying to avoid the creation of a lookup table where I know I should be able to calculate this. I need to determine the start and end date of a week number. I did find this post from 2002: http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=33116&highlight=start+end+dates+week but it doesn't seem to work.
What I am trying to do is show all projects that were opened at the start of a week number. For example, week 2 is from 1/7/2008 and ends on 1/13/2008 (provided that your week starts in the week that 1/1 occurs and that your week starts on Monday). I need this start date so I can show all projects that started on or before 1/7/2008 and were in an open status.
If I can't calculate this then I will have to create a table and relate the query to it.
|Week Number | Start Date | End Date |
Queries are run on a webpage:
The queries would be a little bit different – instead of just one operator, it would get all operators for each category and then either create a record in Access (if it didn’t already exist) or update a record (if it already existed). For example, the first query might get
JSMITH 22
KWALTON 33
Since these records don’t exist yet, we’d do an insert for each. If the next query (for a different entry/verify category) got
JSMITH 44
VJONES 50
we would update JSMITH (since already inserted after first query) and insert VJONES. This has to be done since not everyone works in every category. Not sure if you can import different spreadsheets into Access and have it determine automatically for each row whether to do an insert or update (of course, we can do this in code in the web page).
Can you help?
I need a module but haven't got the foggiest on where to start. I have a query that works out whether a staff member has done a sleep in based on their clocking out time (TIME OUT). I also have a column for DAY IN which it stores the day they logged in and HOUSE which indicates which house they clocked in at. What I want to do is determine whether each 'sleep in' is a weekday or weekend shift and at which house. We have different rates of pay based on the houses and whether it is weekend or not.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a field on a report which I am struggling to produce the right query for.
I have a table - tblTillDept which consists of a 4 fields. The first is the PK, which is the number of a till department. The second - fourth fields are names of 3 different branches of the small garden centre I am writing the database for. The values in these fields are the names of the corresponding departments. Not every branch has exactly the same name for each field.
Prior to the report being is run, a small form, frmCentre pops up asking the user to select the Centre they are printing the labels for. They select the name of the branch from a combo box (cboCentre) bound to a field list of tblTillDept. When the report is formatted, the intention is that the value of this combo box selects the field from which the value for the department is taken. I can see that I need to set the control source of this property to some sort of query, but I can't quite work out how to do it.
I've uploaded the database, written in Access 2000, here (http://www.moppy.co.uk/plants.mdb) as it's too big to post as an attachment.
