hi,
I added a field to a table in the backend
I also addded the same field to show up in the form
Now the problem I am facing is that in a new record I can type my values for all fields but an error(2465) is thrown when i try to save it
I suspect that when this field is added in the form it is not getting committed/saved into the table
how do i go about doing this?
thanks
I'm trying to add a combo box field to an existing table and form. I added the new field to my existing table and set it up as an combo box added my row sources. Then added the new field to an existing form and now am getting a error stating "The record source "Table name and added field here" specified on this form or report does not exist. When I just make the new field a text box instead of combo box it works just fine.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe attachment is the database Im working on and I have a problem.
I need to add a supplier Product number in there some where so I could keep the numbe as reference and so it may be easier to enter items recieved.
in the form section, I will have Invoice with a sub form Invoice details.
I need to put suppliers Item number somehow so it would search and if the item is on the product list it would fill out the rest of the values.
should I make a separate table for suppliers product number or should I just include that into the invoice detail? I dont want to put it in the product table since I get same Items from different suppliers.
I have created the code below to add a new column to a table each month. This may not be the best database design but it meets our needs for now.
However I am having difficultly with the code below. The CreateField Function is unable to accept the parameter periodDate. Any Suggestions on this would be apprerciated
Function DateField() As Long
Dim colFullName As Object
Dim dbsCurrent As Object
Dim yearInt As Integer
Dim monthInt As Integer
Dim table1 As Object
Set dbsCurrent = CurrentDb
Set table1 = CurrentDb.CreateTableDef("103TblCustomerBalancesCombined")
yearInt = Year(Date)
monthInt = Month(Date) - 1
If monthInt = 0 Then
periodDate = CLng(yearInt - 1 & 12)
Exit Function
End If
If monthInt < 10 Then
periodDate = CLng(yearInt & "0" & monthInt)
Else
periodDate = CLng(yearInt & "" & monthInt)
End If
Set colFullName = table1.CreateField(periodDate, DB_TEXT)
table1.Fields.Append colFullName
End Function
Hi folks,
I am really struggling w/ the following & would greatly appreciate advice!
I want to add several Fields to a Linked Table in Access. The Access wouldn't let me do it because it is a Linked Table. What should I do?
There is also a nicely designed Form that goes w/ that Linked Table. So I figured that once I add the Fields in the Table then I can add them to the Form too. - But can't even add the fields yet....
HUGE THANKS in advance!
I am building a DB for my college, it is needed to replace a spreadsheet they have in place. The spreadsheet is used to monitor and track Students grades.
Each unit a student passes gives that student a certain number of points, the number of points depends on the grade (e.g. a student will get more points for a B than they would for a C). The point of the DB is to input all the students grades so that student can see how many points they have.
I was wondering if there is a way to add a value to a field, so if I put in a field that a student got a B grade the database would know how much a B grade is worth points wise. Each field should be added together to generate an overall score. Is this possible?
I have tblCategory and tblExercise. The data in tblExercise can sometimes match with more than one record in tbCategory. When inputting data into tblExercise how can I choose to have that stored under more than one field in tblCategory?
Example:
tblCategory: Arms
tblExercise: TRX Biceps Curls
so TRX Biceps Curls can also be under
tblCategory: TRX
Right now I have to input TRX Biceps Curls under Categories Arms and TRX. Very time consuming.
I am using a form to add a record to a table and need to be able to specify one of the fields in the table that will be added to. This field is predetermined by another form selection. If there is a way to force a value on a title box with a control source this would also do the trick.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to add a new field to a table each month end. the name of this field should reflect the previous month. For example when running the update in August 2006 the name of the field should be for July 2006, the format of the field should be as follows: 2006 07. Is there any way to create a function in Access to do this, thanks

I have a table that has records added to it using the following VBa code:

What I would hope to be able to do is add a "standard" randomly to each SubmssionNumber (each SubmissionNumber might be 1-100 records). The record I need to add should be chosen at random from a list of 6 or so options and added at the end or middle or start of the job (SubmissionNumber) is this something that is easy to do or should I just give up and add it manually?
Thanks to everyone who has helped me in the past, it is getting me up to speed quickly. Access seems to be quite popular as I have contacted 3 developers to help with my dB but they are all to busy to help me so I am going it alone.
Can someone tell me how to go about adding security to a field in a linked table so that only certain people can access and modify the information? I am using Access 2002. I also wonder if someone can tell me how to modify a field in a linked table? I have tried altering and saving the changes, but it won't save them because it's a linked table. Thank you in advance to anybody who can help me out here!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a make table query created from a linked to a table. i want to add field to the make table query that are not fields on the table. How do i insert a created field? Hopefully this is a basic question.....
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am looking to create a query that adds a new field to the resulting table. The field should be 'Yes/No' and for every entry the default should be 'Yes'. The query looks something like this:
Code:
Select .*, [here the new field]
From MyTable1
Union
Select .*, [here the new field]
Form MyTable2
The Union statement isn't really relevant, just for completion's sake.
Is this possible, and how can I do it?
Adding a second auto number field to current table and auto numbering current entries?
I need to combine some records from the same order number that currently have detailed names. I'm trying to simplify them, but I can't because it creates duplicate records.
I have been struggling with this and would appreciate any help. It sounds so simple!!! I have 4 fields (Unit Price 1, Unit Price 2, Unit Price 3, Unit Price 4) in a Orders table that I want to add together and store in a 5th field (Sub Total) in the same table using a form. I am having problems with the sum and I am unsure how to get it to show in the Sub Total box in the form as well as the table. Thanks for your help!!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got a fields called rev code that contain the following values:
field name: 110 131 250 255 258
field value: 7.49 6 11.25 12.11 78
I'm writing a query that pulls from the first two digits of the rev code and need to round off to the nearest dollar so in my query I'll have a column 11 with a value of 7, a column 13 with a value of 6, then I need to take columns 250 255 and 255 add the values together and round off so I get a column 25 with a value of 101.
How do I do that?
I have a query all set up and now I have to add one field from another table in it. I am looking for a date which has the criteria Now() - Last Movement Date. Last Movement Date is the column I am taking from the other table which I just added which is the ZLX02 table. When I run the query, everything but the Last Movement Date shows up. What can I do to get the Last Movement Date to show? Check out the attached pics.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a table A in which I write down orders for cars. A record is an order. A single order may contain multiple cars in varying quantities.Each car has its components. Some cars may have some of their components common. There is a table B which indicates each car and its components required with their quantities required to build the car. There is a record for each different car.
Now suppose there is a new car we are going to produce so we need a new record in table B for the car and all its components. Also we need a new field in table A because people can now order the new car(in some quantity).
With form for table B we can introduce a new record. But how can we add a field in table A automatically after a record is added in table B?
I have a table in my DB called, devices. This contains all the information about various devices we have deployed in the field.
These devices are also contained in 2 other separate MySQL DB's.
What I need to do is add 2 additional field to my access table for the DeviceRecno and DeviceID of the same device from the MySQL DB's.
Adding the field is easy, but I cant think of a way to enter the recno and ID from the other DB's without typing them in manually for each one.
The common between them all is the serial number of the device, and I can get a list of serial numbers, recno's and ID in an excel sheet.
like a vlookup in excel to easily populate all the existing records with the recno and id's from the other db's?
When I created the access system there was no intention to link it to the other DB's for any reason, but that has now changed due to a lot of reasons.
I'd like to know how to add a blank filed (memo), called "comments" that is not pulled in from any existing table, in an existing maketable query which is getting it's fields from different linked tables , so that the destination table that comes out of this query, has all those data along with an extra column for me to add comments.

Hi,
I wonder if someone can help with what must be an easy solution to this problem.
I have a table with 350,000 records, but without a unique identifier field. I just want a simple incrementing number field to become the primary key but dont know how to add this in. I cannot add an autonumber as there are two many records - it falls over.
Ive tried exporting it all to excel, but as well as being cumbersome, something went wrong and so I'm back to square one.
I think there must be a way to add an incrementing number either via a query or in VBA but I dont know how. Please can somebody provide a solution.
Thanks,
Adam.
I am looking to add a field to my table with a timestamp for each new entry.
I am working with a split database. All of the records are inputted by forms (in the back end by other users). I want to be able to see the exact time that a record was added, but without having to add this field to the actual form. I just want to be able to have a field in the table that shows me when the user submitted an entry. Is there a way to add an automatic timestamp field to the table?
