I am trying to "silently" send an email if for instance an event is trigger. In this case, if the amount of X is less to the amount of Y then send an email to remind me to buy more from product X.
I will be using Outlook for this matter.
The .Body should read something like "Your reserves from "Product X" are reaching its minimum. Please buy more of it"...
Is it possible to put a graph in an graph in an outlook message? I realize I will need to use an outlook object but not sure how to start off - ?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a query that has some reminder dates. 10 days before an event and 5 days after. I was wondering if it would be feasible to create an outlook reminder based on the query and if so how would I go about it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have a form which has a list of actions on it. There are 5 fields to be filled in per action. A user can add a new action by clicking the arrow button to go to the next blank record. My problem is that there is one field which is required. At the moment, if I click off the record I have just entered, and I have not filled the field, I get a standard access message telling me the required property of the field has not been set to true because it contains a null value. Obviously this is fine for me, I know what to do but my users will not understand it. I need to trap the error and put out a simple message along the lines of 'Please Select a Classification'. I don't know on which event I trap the error. The problem is that they could click off the record at any point, i.e., they might fill in 2 fields then click off, or they might fill 4. So I want it to be trapped just before the record is saved to the database but only after the user has been given the chance to fill all the fields in. I don't want the message to appear after they tab from field 1 to field 2, if you get what I mean.
Any ideas on how I do this?
thank you!
Hi
I have form with a series of text boxes in which users can edit the data that is populated in them. For one of the text boxes I want to add an after update event, so that if the user changes the value in the text box, a message window appears telling them to click on the submit button at the bottom of the form.
Does anyone know the code that I should use to make this message appear when the value in the text box is changed?
:confused:
I would like to trap event name where an error has taken place in.
I do not want to type in every event name by hand for each error messge.
Exit_Command27_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Command27_Click:
Call ErrorLog(Me.Name, EventName, Err, Err.description)
Resume Exit_Command27_Click
I would like to have a message box popup 30 minutes after a user checks a checkbox (check5). I am thinking I would have to have VBA code to run on the After Update property of the checkbox but not sure what the correct code would be.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi. I have managed to create a command button on my form to send a date field on the form to Outlook as a task. I know this isn't exactly what you wanted to do, but you may be able to tailor the code to suit.
Private Sub cmdOutlookRem_Click()
Dim OutlookApp As Outlook.Application
Dim OutlookTask As Outlook.TaskItem
Set OutlookApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutlookTask = OutlookApp.CreateItem(olTaskItem)
With OutlookTask
.Subject = "Contact " & Me!Forename & " " & Me!Surname & ", " & Me!CompanyName
.Body = "Company Tel No: " & Me!CoTelNo & ", " & "Direct Line: " & Me!DirectLineinCo & ", " & "Mobile: " & Me!MobileNo
.ReminderSet = True
.ReminderTime = DateAdd("n", 2, Me!DateNextContact)
'Remind 2 minutes from now.
.DueDate = DateAdd("n", 5, Me!DateNextContact)
'Due 5 minutes from now.
.StartDate = DateAdd("n", 2, Me!DateNextContact)
.ReminderPlaySound = True
.ReminderSoundFile = "C:WindowsMediaDing.wav" 'Modify path.
.Save
End With
End Sub
I have a form with a field called "CCN" and what I need to do is have some sort of code that will look at the table "Application Data - NE" and check to see if there are any duplicate records for that CCN on the "AfterUpdate" function and if so; spit out an error message saying "CCN already exist; please try another".
Does anyone have any ideas on how to code this?
I know how to do the custom error message; I am just not sure how to have it check for duplicates before the rest of the form can be updated/before the record is saved.
=IIf([Text34]<=2644,0,IIf([Text34]<=7164,650,IIf([Text34]>=242506,22000,[Text34]*0.0907194)))
The above formula works as is in the field I have it in, but need it performed only if [Label5] is marked yes. I guess what I need is what goes in front of the above formula. I've looked through the forum, but it is so huge I had no luck finding what I needed.
If [Label5] is no, I need it to go to [Label6] and if [Label6] is yes, perform another calc like the one above. If [Lable6] is no, I need an error message.
Hope this is clear. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi all very simple question i'm sure but had a look through the forums and couldn't find anything.
On a form i have 2 buttons, one for new data and one for editing data. When either of these buttons are clicked a few text boxes pop up and immediately display data (The first record of the recordset). For the edit button this fine, however how do i get the text boxes to display a new record and not allow the user to head backwards through the recordset only onto a new record??
Thanks in advance
Hi everyone,
I have made a form for our database and I would like to have a .gif image display when a certain checkbox is checked. Any idea how to do this?
Thanks
PS - sorry if this is a noob question...I don't use access much
I have a form that has code tied to the 'on open' event that is going to be accessed by users where we want them to only have access to certain fields which we want them to fill out. The fileds that will be locked will change based on the field called 'Item Number'. The code will be long because there are 30 different Item Numbers and about 10 to 20 fields that we will disable based on the Item Number. The code is like:
Dim Item_Number As String
If Me.Item_Number = "32000" Then
Me.Batch_Lot_Number.Enabled = False
End If
This is all great except that the disable makes the field kind of obscure by the color it gives it. I don't want to use the lock property because that doesn't give you a visual clue that its locked.
Is there a way to change the color of the field background using VBA?
First Post - please be gentle :)
I may be missing something here, but can any one help?
I am using a Iif statment in a query to filter records as follows:
If([value from a form]= "all holidays",("weeks hols" or "days hols"),"not a holiday")
This is returning a to complex to calculate error - I think it is a Syntax error but could be wrong
but if I enter The string "week hols" or "days Hol" as the criteria without the Iif statment that works fine.
Thanks Dean
Can anyone help?
I have a table with the following:
Booked with a y/n field
Person Name with a text field
So...
Yes(True) Jim
Yes(True) Jim
No(False) Jim
What I need is to be able to show a query that shows if the checkbox is ticked (True) and the Name is Jim total up how many true items there are. So from the above I can see that Jim has 2 true items. I would then like this shown in a text box is this possible?
Also, it is not always going to be a person called Jim so... (From above)
Yes(True) Jim
Yes(True) Jim
No(False) Jim
Yes(True) Jack
So how would this go on a query in a sub form? So Name Jim would show 2 and Jack would show 1? At the moment is is grouping the name and I dont want that.
Any ideas
Cheers
This should be really simple, but I am stumbling on the criteria. I have a combo box which returns "Y" or "N". I'm using this value as criteria for a field called [Planned=Y/N]. This field stores either a "Y" or a "N" to indicate that a network outage was planned or not. If the combo box is "Y" I want to return all values(Y and N). If the combo box is "N" I only want to return values of "N". I've tried the following in the criteria without the desired affect:
IIf([Forms]![frmOutagemenu]![cboflag]="Y","","N") - only returns records when "N" is selected.
IIf([Forms]![frmOutagemenu]![cboflag]="Y",null,"N") - only returns records when "N" is selected.
IIf([Forms]![frmOutagemenu]![cboflag]="Y",In("Y","N"),"N") - too complicated for Access to decode.
Is there another way to return nothing for the criteria when "Y" is selected?
I run various queries on a daily basis for multiple date ranges (previous day, week to date, month to date, and year to date). The below criteria allows me to get WTD numbers but it has a flaw. When I run the reports on Monday, this criteria gives me Sunday and Monday's data when I actually want the previous week's data. Does anyone know of an iif statement that basically, says, "If today is Monday, give me last week's data, else give me wtd of the current week?" Right now, I manually change the criteria on Monday morning to hard code the dates and then revert to the formula on Tuesdays but I need to have this completly automated because there are a large number of queries and I don't have time to change them all. Thanks for the help!
Between Date()-Weekday(Date()-1) And Date()-1
Hi! When it rains, it pours, right? I'm wondering if any of you know of a way to count true statements...
What I mean is, I have a query where I have a series of 5 different OR statements, meaning I want to see records with either a min. ed. number, or a years of experience number, etc...
The query returns every record with at least one of the criteria being met. What I need is to count the statements that are true for one record. Let's say I have someone who meets all of the OR criteria, I need a way to count the number of criteria that they met. Is there a way to do this? Maybe with a crosstab query??? Thanks!!

I have 3 queries that pull from 3 dfferent tables. All 3 tables contain a field called Acct but the other fields in the 3 tables are different. What I would like is to have a form field that the user can input an account number and depending on which query the account number is in, that query and result will display. I have been trying the dlookup function but can't seem to get the coding down. Also, if the account number is not in any query I would like a message box to display saying it can't be found. Thanks for any help!

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a database with 3 tables. Each table has an account number field however the tables are completely different as are the account numbers that populate them. To go with the tables are queries that will bring in desired information.

View 7 Replies View RelatedNew to Access, and having a heck of a time learning it...or rather learning how to correctly design databases.
All my expertise is with Excel. I'm creating a project where I use Excel to parse a non comma delimited text file, then feed certain figures into an Access database. This is all through VBA.
It wasn't until yesterday that I realized I had a problem. There are two text files with data that makes up one complete record. With what I already have built, and with what I have tought myself (ADO w/ VBA wise) I tought the easiest solution would be to create two tables that will hold the data from each respective text file. This is what I'm working with:
A store has a department with 5 areas of measurement that is collected daily. One complete record would be like this:
Date | Store | Dept | Sales | Cust Count | Item Count | Avg Price | Mix
...and there are (right now) 3 stores and 15 departments that are watched in this project. What I came up with for a table design was this. Fields with an "!" prefix reflects primary keys.
Table1 (using data from txt file 1): !Date | !Store | !Dept | Sales | Mix
Table2 (using data from txt file 2): !Date | !Store | !Dept | Cust Count | Item Count | Avg Price
In each table, I have to have a compound primary key to make up what is a unique record. I just learned I could use a compound index and an autonumber as my primary key. Either way, I'm using the 3 primary keys in each table with a 1 to 1 relationship. This seems to work if I make a query.
Now, will the way I did it hold up? Is there a better, more correct way to do it?
Thank you for the time & help!
I have a query that shows banned users (I work in a school). When a student's ban has ended, a tick box is checked in a form linked to tblBannedUsers to show they are no longer banned.
The query itself simply queries all records in tblBannedUsers with a username field (UserID) taking search criteria from a box on a form.
However, I want to filter out the students that are no longer banned (those with a tick in the checkbox). To do this, I thought it would be a simple case of editing the query, and in the Ban Lifted field criteria, use =False to say I only want those records with a tick.
This doesn't work and I still get all records given the combo box filter (which are just filtering for a username...if I leave it blank it gives all records via Is Null).
What should I be putting in the criteria to filter out those records with a ticked checkbox?
Thanks,
Steve Swallow
EDIT: I've just done a test query and <B>No</B> is the criteria to use, but when I use this criteria in my query which also take data from a form's combo box it ignore the <B>No</No> criteria.
