Forms :: Daily Memo For Users To View
Jun 17, 2014I am currently updating our old Access DB 2003 to 2013 and wanted to make a few modifications along the way.I would really like to allow users to leave notes for each other on a front page. This front page form does not have any underlying table to it as it is only used as a switchboard.My question is, is it possible to have some sort of memo or text box that users can enter notes into that can be easily viewed from the front switchboard and then they can delete/update the notes as required?

Dec 17, 2013I'm trying to protect the frontend of my database from unwanted changes. How to disable the navigation pane, ribbon, and only display my navigation form. My navigation form has 10 buttons that open forms for data entry. I only want the users to be able to open forms and add data. I don't want them to be able to go to the navigation pane or anything other than the forms.

Mar 22, 2014I am displaying table records in access form Datasheet view. While business users accessing that form, they are hiding and rearranging some columns for their use. So it will be hard for other users to access. I just want to know any settings are avaible in MS Access or can we accomplish this using any events or macro or modules??
View 14 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Search Filter Option For Users - Ability To View Data?
Mar 12, 2014My department and limited the users to only specific tables based on their need and role. However, users have expressed the need to view past work. I do not want to give them access to the table - I am thinking that there should be a way to create a report that shows the data, but how would I set up a search filter option so they can find the one record that they are looking for?
View 2 Replies View RelatedQuestion About: A Table Of Users Who Have Relationships To Other Users??
Feb 21, 2006Hi,
I have a table of users somthing like this:
User_ID
Name
Hobby
Favorite_Food
Blah
Blah
Blah
Users can be friends with one another and I need some way of logging this.
My 2 options (that i can see) are:
1) Putting a friends entry in the main user table then comma delimiting the User_ID's in the friend entry like so:
User_ID: 001
Name: John
Hobby: Frizbee
Favorite_Food: Cake
Friends: 002,004,010
2) Making a seperate table with multiple entries for each user like so:
User: 001
Friend 002
---
User: 001
Friend: 004
---
User: 001
Friend: 010
---
User: 002
Friend: 001
---
User: 004
Friend: 001
---
User: 010
Friend: 001
---
The database has to be handled by a web service and/or a web appliction making the comma delimited option occupy more server time breaking down the string into usable user_ID's.
But (and this is probably my actual problem) if i was to impliment my second idea, I'm not sure what I should make the tables primary key or the best way to relate it to the main user table.
My initial thought is to just have a, technicaly useless, ID be the primary key and impliment a one(User) to many(friends entries) relationship... but im a bit of an access n00b so thought i better come ask for some advice.
Thanks.
Forms :: Text Boxes Showing In Design View But Not Display In Form View
Apr 19, 2014I have a Form which I have linked correctly to a subform. The Text boxes are showing in the Design view but are not when one switches to the Form View. Labels for Fields are visible in the Form View. Have even created a new subform and that will also not display the Text Boxes.
View 1 Replies View RelatedForms :: Unable To View Object Properties In Form Design View (Access 2010)
May 16, 2014Why the ability to view the properties of an object within a form is not available when you double click on it in design view?
I was happily working away double clicking on a command button to edit some code when for some reason the next time I tried to edit it did not open up for me.
I was unable to access it even by right clicking on the object & selecting properties as that also appears to be disabled, not greyed out or anything but just does nothing when selected.
Have I inadvertently changed a setting somewhere that prevents the properties from being displayed?
How Do I Show The Subform As Form View Instead Of Datasheet View :confused:
Jul 19, 2007See title :)
I have seen that in some sample db's rightclicking the mouse showed the menu with an option to check or uncheck the dataview option, unchecked the formview was applied, but when i 'just' import the subform, i cannot find somewhere the possibility to change from dataview to formview.
Maybe someone can help me with this, probably very simple(?), question?
!!??? All My Forms Are Blank Under Form View - But Fine Under Design View!!!

Jul 2, 2007I have a table called NewTransactions_tbl that I have been using for some time. I am trying to add a new field called CustomerProjectNumber.

Any ideas why it is not showing?

Forms :: No Filters - Cannot View All Records In Form View
Aug 27, 2013I have 4 tables and around 440 records but can only view up to 417 in the form I have designed. I have been adding new records via form and it has been added to my main table, but when i try to view it in form view - the record is not available to view. What do I need to do to correct this problem?
I have checked that there are no filters, data entry is set to No, Auto deletions, additions and edits are set to yes.
Also to mention it seems that the problem has arisen since I set up some new queries, there is a one to one relationship between the tables!
Forms :: From Pivot View To Filtered Datasheet View
Nov 14, 2013I want to "zoom" to the underliyng data from pivot view. When in excel someone doubleclicks a field in a pivot table, it automatically creates a table containing all the lines that field were made up from. I want to achieve the same behaviour in Access.I started to think towards a VBA coda, that could be initiated from the form's double click event. It should go to datasheet view with the prpoer filter criterias.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI Want Datasheet View... Why Does It Keep Showing Form View?
Apr 6, 2006I have a form which is opened with a filter from another form. For some reason it views the form in form view, although it was set up as datasheet view. I even went to the form properties and the default was datasheet and i made it not to allow other views. This still didnt solve it. I want it to be in datasheet view because i want to show multiple records at the same time.
If u kno how i could resolve this please offer ur help

View Records In Form View
Apr 6, 2006Hi, I am in the process of creating a new database - I am a bit new to this. I have a main form, which also contains two subforms. The record source of the main part of the form is 11 tables, and then each of the subforms is based on one table each (so there are 13 tables altogether).
Everything seems to be linked up ok, and when I add new information to the form (and the subforms), the information gets saved to the tables as it should be. However, I want to be able to view past records in the form view, so that users can regularly update past records using form view. I can't do this. Each time I open the form view, the thing at the botton left says 'record one of one.' THen if I put the curser in (for eg) the box called 'client name' and click on the search button, I get a message saying:
"you can't find or replace now, the fields are not searchable due to:
- the fields are controls;
- the fields have no data;
- there are no fields to search."
well I don't really know what that means. There is definately data in there somewhere, because I can view it in the table view, but I'd like to be able to view and update old records, and search, in the form view.
any tips?
thanks for helping
Design View - Where'd The Table View Go ?
Apr 18, 2008You know how normally in design view there would be a table at the bottom of the screen where you can drag your fields from the view above.
Well, I have a query where this table view has disappeared ?
I can edit the query in SQL view, the query works, just the table view is missing.
Ever happened to anyone else ? I've done the obvious and scrolled down as far as I can and nope, it's not there ??? :confused:
Normal View -v- Design View
Jul 20, 2005I am wondering why the alteration to my form in design view is not reflected in the "normal" form view. I have included the two views. In design view I moved "Staff In"/"Staff ID" to the top of the form believing that as I work left to right thay would appear on the left hand side in normal view.
However, in the image of "normal" view you can see that "Staff In" is way over on the right hand side of the form.
Any ideas how I can fix this?
Thank you

Design View Keyboard Shortcut - Expand Columns In Design View Of A Query
Jun 5, 2014I'm looking for a keyboard shortcut to expand the columns in "design view" of a query.
What I mean by this is rather than selecting all of the columns and double clicking to see the entire text, I'd like to be able to a shortcut.
The entire process as I see it involves 3 steps so I will need thesolution to the 3rd step.
(1) [ctrl+spacebar] to select initial column
(2) [shift+arrows] to select all of the columns I need
(3) [keyboard shortcut] will expand all of the columns "field" names to the size of the column heading
Alternatively, if you know of a shortcut that will expand the columns without having to select them first I'll take it!!
Blank Form In Form View But Fields Present In Design View
Oct 19, 2005After reading many of the posts here, I decided that one of the problems with the tables in the db I was working on was in the primary keys. I had used the same field name as the primary key in all of my tables. This was RecipID, which was a user entered textbox with an example in a label beside it showing the format to use.
After reading stuff here, I decided this wasn't a good idea. So I changed RecipId to be an autonumber in the parent table (Household_Info) and a long integer foreign key in the children. Also, I added some fields to the parent table to identify the head of household (lastname, firstname)
I already had a continuous form made with a subform and a pop-up form associated with it based on my previous tables. Reran the query underlying the form, and the new fields showed up in the field list box for the form. The fields are all still present in design view, but I get a totally blank form in form view. I checked the forms recordsource and made sure that it was set to the new query.
Can anyone give me an idea about what I'm overlooking? Do I have to recreate the form?
(Sorry if this is a repeat of a question someone has already addressed, but I couldn't turn up any relevant threads after several hours of searching.)
Thanks, Charlotte
Multiple Users
May 9, 2005All,

How can I setup this database to allow multiple users? I am very, very green at Access. Please don't say split the database...please! :eek:

View 3 Replies View RelatedMultiple Users?
Aug 18, 2005Hi,
I am trying to create a database that MULTIPLE users can log on and view the data.
Eg. I have a client list and have employed 5 ppl to call each one of my clients and confirm their details.
I have imported all the details into a table and just want users to simulataneously log on and click a "next record" button that will bring up the next "new" record with the details displayed on a form. of course the database will flag this record as "old" and which user called them.
Main thing is 5+ computers can connect to this database simultaneously and no record gets displayed more than once.
Can MS Access do this?
if it cant, would a vb front end located on each computer help?
Thanks for any suggestions!
