I would like to know how to display a msg box for missing or duplicate information when entering data into a form. My database keeps track of call accounting codes and the code is the primary key index field. I use macro's for all of my automated tasks such as finding codes, filtering for available codes and such. What I want to do is to display a simple message when adding a new one to the database if they forgot to enter the code and if they did enter a code if they entered a duplicate. The default error meesage tells them there is a problem but they won't know how to fix it. I know I should use the Before Update and After Update but I am not good at writing the vb code. I found some code in one of the the threads and copied it and changed the field names but it failed. I need a simple message like "You did not enter the Fac code" and "The Fac code you entered is already in the database please check your information."
The field name of my primary key is "Fac"
Thanks in advance for anyone that could help me with this.
I do have a DB that takes some data from Stripes and imports them into access. Since this will be a multi user DB I want to make a warning form.
Basically a user will do the download, I want a form or a pop up message that will show to the next user that will open the DB while the download process is ongoing, to see that the download data process is still ongoing, That he needs to wait until the data download has finished.
when i am inserting data into table useing insert into statment i am getting one warning "do u want to append or not". what i can do to overcome this messeage.
I apologise if this has been answered, I couldn't find anywhere else on the forum.
On the data access page it gives an annoying warning that says 'This website is using your identity to access a data source. If you trust this website, click OK to continue, otherwise click cancel'.
Is there a way I can suppress this message? It looked cool at the start, but now it's just annoying....
Table1 CustID - (Autonumber/PK) FirstName MiddleName LastName Address City ContactNumber
Table2 CustID VehID - (Autonumber/PK) PlateNumber FrameNumber ProdNumber.... etc.
Property of all fields in Table2 are set to Indexed(No Duplicates).
I need a warning message form to appear on the screen if User adds a new record of PlateNumber which already exist. Then, automatically shows User who currently owns that PlateNumber.
I have a table which holds information relating to a fleet of vehicles; each of these vehicles is currently physically checked on a daily basis for a number of items, one of which being to check that the vehicle has valid VED (tax disc).
With the paper disc being abolished now, we have a situation where the individual using the vehicle cannot be certain about its VED status (the chances of one not being taxed is next to nil, but we are talking a fleet of nearly 1000 vehicles here, so anything is possible)
Our current database has most of the vehicle information stored already, so in theory I think I only need to add a couple of fields, which will make the table structure (roughly):
Is it possible that when a Form (not related to the table, and most likely the main switchboard form) is opened that both the MOTExpiry and VEDExpiry dates are checked, and if either or both of them are due to expire within 7 days or have already expired that a warning appears (vbaOKOnly messagebox would do fine) stating that there are vehicles that require their MOT & VED dates to be checked and updated accordingly)?
I have a form that collects data, it works perfectly and writes all inputted data to the table. I have made the same form but using the data web page wizard.
It works fine but when i look at the table, some of the data is missing. there are 12 fields to complete, (all drop down boxes) I have one table which contains the employees ID number and name.
When the id number and name and picked from the drop down box on the web page, they are listed and fine. The record gets added and no problem.
However, go an look at the data in the table and for some reason the employee ID number is present but the name field is blank?? It has not copied the data across.
Even more confusing (currently a test system) if i delete all the data in the table, it works for the first entry, i.e the web page populates the name field but only for the first entry. After that the name field remails blank.
Any suggestions? I have already deleted and re added all the table fields that relate to name and id number and still the same error. I have used the wizard to make several pages and the same problem with all of them. I am baffled why it just refuses the one field and all the others are fine.
Hi! I'm new here and have a little bit of experience w/ access...
I have a problem... I've created a form in my db but when I go to view it (not in design view) the information in the detail area is not there? The problem is not unique to this db either, I have this problem in another... Any ideas? All help is appreciated.
I have system that developed by using Ms Access which has been used for 2 years. But last week, data in one of my table missing in the half way when user do the data entry. There is header table and the details table in the form. All record of the header table were gone but the details record was not problem.
Why all data in table were missing? Please give some guidance.
I am a beginner using Access 2007. The custom written program that I am using has a minor glitch. The report has a subform inside the main report. In this subform is a form header, detail, form footer. The information that is entered into the main report that transfers to the form header, detail, and form footer works and that data is saved with no problems. When I go to create a pdf file from this report all the data transfers to the printed pdf except the information in the form footer. I have looked at the property pages and compared all the properties and they are all identical.
Below is a screen shot of the report in the design view. The areas circled in red are the data that is missing from the pdf when printed. The area in green prints correctly as well as the main body of the report. We insert comments in the comment section and also type initials in the signature section but this do not show up when printed in the pdf. The database saves the information that is input but does not print it. Not everything in the company has access to the database so this is the reasoning for generating a pdf so that it is placed on the company drive for everyone to see.
I have a "Search" form that I am using to search through a query in a list box of all of my Customers. Once the record that I am wanting to view comes up I highlight it and click a "View" button to bring up another form with the customers full record. When this form is open I am able to update the customer information and add User's to it if necessary.
My problem comes after I click on my save and close button that takes me back to me search form. I want to close the search form and the error I get is "The record cannot be deleted or changed because table "tblUserProfile" includes related records." I click OK and get a SECOND error stating "You can't save this record at this time. MS Access may have encountered an error while trying to save a record. If you close this object now, the data changes you made will be lost. Do you want to close the database object anyway?"
I have already made my changes and saved them in the form with the customer record so am not sure why I am getting an error when trying to close the Search form.
I have two tables table1 his a master list of companies that I have already delt with table2 is a list of companies that I have delt with as well as new companies and I allow for multiple instances of company data to be in table2
table2 my have several records refering to "ABCD Inc" but table1 will only have it once
If new companies show up in table2 how can I get a mass copy of all the companies that are in table2 but not in table1 into table1?
I have a query which combines several linked tables, the query has about 10 columns, I need to show only the records which have one or more empty fields.
Some records may only have one missing field others may have several.
I want to use a column in a query to show where data is missing in other fields.
In excel I have used this statement:
=IF(COUNTA(I5:J5)=2,"","error")
Basically, I have two fields PRICE and WEIGHT. I want a column in the query to show 'Error' (or any kind of flag) when either (or both) of these fields are blank.
When i preview, i see all data just fine but when i save a PDF of my report, i am missing some data in the report. That data is rather important because its the quantities and size of my items in my Purchase Order Report.
I currently have query that looks at 2 tables that hold financial information. I am querying the data to do some adding and subtracting based off a financial class of a facility. The issue I am having is that one table may have a financial code that the other does not have but I still need to show that financial class for the facility.
My looks as follows
FROM [CashValue Link] INNER JOIN TCashValue ON ([CashValue Link].FINANCIAL = [TCashValue].FINANCIAL) and ([CashValue Link].Date1 = TCashValue.Date1) AND ([CashValue Link].FACILITY = TCashValue.FACILITY) AND ([CashValue Link].CLT = TCashValue.CLT)
I have a master table that holds all of my data. The table details what qualifications someone is holding.I would like a query that would enable me to produce a list of people who DO NOT hold a qualification.
I have all my data sitting on a server in SQL. Within Access, I have linked tables pointing at SQL tables. I display the data on an Access form. Somewhere in their it is dropped a few records. This system is used for in and out processing and occasionally misses a few individuals. Could this have anything to do with the method in opening the table, ie dbopenTable vs dbOpenSnapshot.
Below is a text file that we need to import from a POS system but the layout is not conducive to a typical database import. 2500 series of numbers are in the second field of the table and I would like to add that account number to the second field for each row and I would like to add the date 4 the field of each line but not sure how I would accomplish this.
In the above example student 1234 has a missing record in year 2004 which supposed to be Term2 in the previous year (i.e. 003) and Term2 supposed to be Term1 value in the following year (i.e. 004). Similarly for student 3311
The detail section has these lines...first line exits for all students, other 2 lines optional. Each line includes data from each of the 3 views:
Demograhic and bus/route information Special needs information Additional text information
Each student may have multiple lines in the detail section, one for pickup route, one for drop-off route and possible other routes.
Using VBA and the On Format event of the Detail Section, I have formatted the report to not display repeating information (not apply to use "Hide duplicates" feature) and not display either/both of the optional lines in the detail section.
All works well except that on the first line of each subsequent page, most of the data is missing. I have stepped through using the debugger and see that the data is returned by the query, but not displayed on the report.
I am getting two different results when I preview or print a report. When I preview a report the report title and page title are populated with the strings I built and assigned to global variables. In the report load event the GVs are assigned to the text boxes. Everything works great. If I hit the print icon while previewing the report, those text boxes are populated with the right strings. The problem is I have the option to send the report directly to the printer without previewing it, using the code below.
When this is executed, the report title and page title text boxes are blank. I have put a debug.print (the 3 GVs) in the load event and it spits out the three strings, but the actual printout has no titles. The bound data always prints, but these unbound text boxes fail. I have even copied the string assignment to the open event and that did not work.
I have 2 tables: one for repairs and the other for the billing for those repairs. There is a foreign key(record_num) in the billing table to match the primary key(prikey) in the repairs table. This works fine as long as the unit repair has been completed.
Now an employee wants to see records even if they are not completed and wants the rate to be $0.00 if the unit has not been completed. But by this method there is no record in the billing table.
My problem is if I have the 2 tables joined then I only see records that match both tables. Here is my SQL for the query:
SELECT DISTINCTROW tbl_module_repairs.end_user, tbl_module_repairs.pickup_date, tbl_module_repairs.complete_date, IIf([pickup_entity]="Storm","APS Storm","APS Field Tech") AS [Repair Pickup], tbl_module_repairs.mfg_part_num, tbl_module_repairs.manufacturer, tbl_module_repairs.module_type, tbl_module_repairs.incoming_module_sn,
I work in an office where we use the same database in a folder on a shared server. When Mary Jane is signed on to her computer she can't see all of the data for a record but I am able to see all of the data for the same record on my computer. So I had Mary Jane log out of windows on her computer and I logged onto window on her computer. Once I was logged onto windows on Mary Jane's computer, I then opened the database in the same folder on the shared server and I was able to see all of the data for that record.
