Hello all,
Is it possible to add logos and headers to mdb tables. This is required because the tables are to be printed out and presented. The database itself is manipulated through java swing, so I would like the table to be ready to print out when opened. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI am new with Access and I am setting up a data base that will have 16 tables and each table with have over 3,000 customers. The reason for 16 tables is that we will be inputting information on a monthly basis for each of these customers (12 of the tables) and I also have 4 tables that will be perfomring different "tasks" for each customer (one is just to keep the notes we make for each customer, one will be to show any billing done, one is going to be a summary of the entire year along with some additioanl information not entered elsewhere and the final one is our customer information table).
The customer account number is the primary key for all of my tables.I want to know how I can add a new customer (either using query or form) at one time that will populate all the tables. Right now I have everything set up as tables but I can set up queries if need be.
I am using Access 2007 on my front-end and SQL Server 2014 on the back-end. I have a table of Car Dealers and a table of contacts at the dealerships. These tables are SQL tables. The user can select a dealer and then see everyone that works at that dealership. When they look at this there is a field called Email. This is a hyperlink that they can click on to open Outlook and send an email. The table called DealerEmails is an Access table. My table layout is:
Dbo_Dealers
------------------
ID (PK)
DealerName
DealerAddress
DealerCity
DealerState
DealerZip
DealerPhone
ModifiedBy
ModifiedDate
Dbo_DealerContact
---------------------------
ID (PK)
LastName
FirstName
Postion
DealerID (FK)
ModifiedBy
ModifiedDate
DealerEmails
-----------------
ID (PK)
DealerContactID (FK)
Email
ModifiedBy
ModifiedDate
Now I'm trying to write the code to add a new contact. My code works but I need to obtain the AutoNumber from When I add a new record to the table dbo_DealerContact. My code is:
Code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Dim adoDealerContacts As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim daoDealerEmails As DAO.Recordset
Private Sub cmdSave_Click()
[Code] ....
I tried to add Me.Dirty=False, but this still returned a value of 0 into my variable intDealerContactID.
I also tried moving intDealerContactID = .Fields("ID").Value outside of the With block.
I'm aware that there is a command in SQL @@Identity. But I'm unsure how to use it in this context.
Is there a way to get the primary key from dbo_DealerContacts so I can insert that into my Emails table?
I have a database that tracks staff training in a health trust. It's pretty simple, tb_staff, tb_courses_done which is 1:n and a tb_courses 1:n on the staff_id of tb_courses_done.
I want to know how to go about adding a table(s) that will allow me to book staff onto courses and track if they attended or not. At present it's 1 staff member has many courses so any courses entered are "done." I have a main form with staff details and it has a subform where I add completed courses.
Hope that's clear?
Thanks.

Hi..I have three tables A ,B and C, which have fields A,B and C respectively.
I want to do that following default calulation
A.a=B.b+C.c
meaning adding two columns of different tables and storing it in a third column.
It works for me in the forms but I want to do that in the table.
Is there any way to go about it
Regards

Background info: I have created a database that consists of 22 tables that contains hundereds of electronic components seperated by type. In each table are columns for evey project so that i can determine what projects each component is used in.
Everytime there is a new project i need to add the new column to every table. Is there a way to add the column to every table in one step rather than having to do it seperately for each table? Every table set up the same, same number of columns and column titles and everything.
Thanks

Hello -
I am new with Access and fear that this might be a very elementary question - apologies. Basically, I would like to create a few different tables that all have the same base information (like the primary key and name of the data), but different additional information. The only thing that I can't seem to figure out is how to be able to add a new entry to one table and have it show it up in the other tables. Is this possible? Thank you!

I have a switchboard that points to other switchboards (sub switchboards so to speak). I'm looking to change header title depending on what I group on that switchboard. However, when if I change one of them I change them all. Example: The main switchboard has a header of "switchboard". I have a sub switchboard that I would like to name "Report Switchboard". If I do that it changes all of them, not just the one that I want. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
Eddie.
P.S.
In looking through the forums for this answer I found this awesome thread about to jazz up a database. Thanks to any of you that put suggestions on there.

I am attempting to create my first crosstab query in design view. Adding a simple row and column header and one value, I always get the error message 'Too many crosstab column headers (454)'. What am I doing wrong? Here is the SQL:
TRANSFORM Sum(Forecast.QTY) AS SumOfQTY
SELECT Forecast.HECI
FROM Forecast
GROUP BY Forecast.HECI
PIVOT Forecast.QTY;

How would I go about creating a datasheet style form with 'sort by' headers
for example:
I could create a form with a list box sorted by 'name' by default. If i wanted the same data to appear but sorted by 'Address' or 'Phone Number' how would I go about this?
Many databases give a datasheet view of the data where you can sort by clicking the appropriate header... how could this be achieved in access?
any hints or suggestions welcomed?
Hi,
I have a report that has category, subcateogry and districts.
I can get the first part of the report to work as I want it like so:
Category
FruitSub Cateogry
Apples
OrangesMeatSub Cateogry
Pork
Chicken
Now is where the fun starts. I want next to each of the subcateogries a count of districts, but I want to name of the districts to be at the top, and the counts to go underneath - here is 2 lines to show what I would like.
Category District Name
FruitSub Cateogry 2Apples 3Oranges0
The red text "District Name" would be 4 different districts, going across with the counts under the related districts.
I can not get the districts to show up at the top of the report next to cateogories, and go across with all of the districts, it keeps on wanting to list them underneath each other.
All reports that I have seen have a "set" header, not one created on the fly according to a database.
Is this possible to do, and if so, can someone point me in the right direction?
thank you for your time
My report has a header that contains "Shipped-From" and "Ship-To" information. I only display this on the first page of my report by using some code in the Page Header section. The problem is that the field names of the detail section are also in the header. This means that from the second page on the field names are absent. What can I do to include the field names in all of the pages - but the "Shipped-From" and "Ship-To" information only on the first page?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm using Access 2003. I have a report that I've set up with 2 columns. Unfortunately the Page Header won't print the headings for both columns. I looked on the Help screen and it says the information below. I assume this does not apply to the Page Header section? When I try to use a group header, all I can get is a header for every single row in the group. What am I doing wrong?
Repeat a group header in another column
Open the report in Design view (Design view: A view that shows the design of these database objects: tables, queries, forms, reports, and macros. In Design view, you can create new database objects and modify the design of existing objects.).Double-click the section selector (section selector: The box on the left side of a section bar when an object is open in Design view. Use the box to perform section-level operations, such as selecting the section.) of the group header (group header: Used to place information, such as group name or group total, at the beginning of a group of records.) to display the property sheet.Set the RepeatSection property to Yes.
Im trying to add 2 new tables to a split and linked database... but no matter which side i add the table to (BE or FE), it wont show up in the linked table manager.. so my question is 1.) is there some trick to getting it to show up in the link manager? or 2.) is there some way to re-merge the database, add the new tables.. and then split it again?

I'm trying to add an image into a table. I know I can do it manually by creating an OLE Object and so forth. I am actually trying to get the user to enter in the path of the image and add it into the record/table.

Hi everyone,
This is in regards to user security. I'm a relatively new user to Access (and this forum). My company uses Access 2000 and I'm taking over a database thats used by several departments at my company. This database contains sensitive information so I put user security on it using the wizard. Due to the nature of the database, a particular user group needs to have the ability to create new tables. The problem is this: No matter what I do with the user group security settings, I cannot prevent other user groups from creating new tables. Is there a way to prevent certain users from adding a table?
:confused:
Your help is appreciated
hi, i am new to access and struggling so any help would be great...
i have a db with 3 tables. students contains a Primary Key ('studentid') and then 'firstname' and 'lastname' fields. The two other tables (contactdetails, coursedetails) have 'studentid' as a Primary Key and then they each have other fields.
I set up relationships between the tables (1 to 1) but i would now like to create a form that will allow me to enter data to all three tables at the same time. (this would be ideal as it keeps the data normalised) if this isn't possible i would like to create a form that adds the 'studentid' record to each of the tables.
let me know if you need anymore details but if someone can point me in the right direction it would be cool.
cheers
I have created my tables, relationships and I have gotten halfway through my forms and I have realised that I have missed out a field in a table.
How can I go back and change this without screwing everything up (I believe that would be the best terminology to discribe an error :))?
Thanks :D
Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to link 2 tables to add rows based on corresponding data...below is an example...
First table contains general info...
row 1: column 1 = John Doe column 2 = Sports
row 2: coulmn 2 = Bob Smith column 2 = Music
Second table contains detailed info
column 1 = Sports
row 1= Football row 2 = Baseball row 3 = Soccer
Expected Result:
I would like multiple rows to show for each person linking all of detailed info...
row 1: column 1 = John Doe Column 2 = Football
row 2: column 1 = John Doe Column 2 = Soccer
row 3: column 1 = John Doe Column 2 = Baseball
Thanks,
I created a form from the wizard. In the wizard, I added fields from two tables. Now, after the form is complete (and I've edited it in Design view so that it looks how I want it), I want to add another field from a third table.
Although I can add fields from the first two tables that were originally included (by clicking on the "Field List" icon and dragging fields from that list), I can't find a way to add fields from any other tables in my database. The "Field List" dialog box doesn't contain any fields from anything but the first two tables.
How to I get fields from other tables into the "Field List" dialog box?
Thanks,
Kelly
