Ask User For Input

Apr 3, 2006

Hi,

I'm reasonably new to all this, and have read many posts and got most of my answers from reading the posts here! THANKS.

However I need some help with the following:
I have a form that allows someone to input information about products being booked in. However sometimes we have the same product from the same supplier with the same invoice number etc.. but they have individual serial numbers. So the scenario is I have ten items being booked in, they are all the same product from the same supplier but they have individual serial numbers. I have created a do while loop where I can duplicate all the information for each product, but I need it to pop up a box asking the user for the serial number each time it goes through the loop. He is what I have so far.

Dim MyQuantity As Integer
Dim TempSerial As String
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("BarcodesDB")
MyQuantity = 1
Do While MyQuantity <= Me.Quantity
'insert into table using either a recordset or Append Query
rs.AddNew
rs!Supplier = Me.Supplier.Value
rs!Date = Me.Date.Value
rs!Invoice_Number = Me.Invoice_Number.Value
rs!Pcode = Me.Pcode.Value
rs!Item = Me.Item.Value
rs!Quantity = 1
rs!Serial_Number = Me.Serial_Number.Value 'Get this value from user each loop
rs.Update
MyQuantity = MyQuantity + 1
Loop
rs.Close
Set rs = Nothing

Thanks in advance.

Subtract Day From User Input

Oct 31, 2007

Hi,
Working on a query, what I have is a user will select a date on a form and hit submit.

I need the query that it runs, to pull all data -1 day from what they select.

So if they select 10/31 on the form, it needs to pull everything for 10/30 only.

I have this in my query now,
[Forms]![frm_change_report]![txt_Date]

Which pulls the data for the date they selected, but not sure how to subtract a day.

User Input Form

May 22, 2006

I am trying to make user input forms for each of the tables in my current database. I have made the forms, but I am required to have the forms come up blank first (so they can create a new record), but allow the user to edit existing records too. How do I do this?

Accepting User Input In A Text Box

Sep 9, 2006

Hello, all.
I have created a project in Access 2003 to track a student's progess toward a college degree. I want the user to enter their student id in a text box on a form, look up if that user is present in the student table, and if not show the form to enter their student information.

I can't get the text box to accept user input, and return the student info as a single record on the form. I have a query but I don't know how to set the proprerties to run the query.

Thanks for any help.

User Input Multiple Criteria

Oct 5, 2006

Last question.. honest.. maybe ;)

I have a query that prompts the user to display certain/all of the members in my member table. The problem is, using a parameter query in the memberID field only allows the user to send the message to one member, not multiple members. "1 or 2 or 3" or "1,3" obviously don't work.
I've tried creating a form with a list box to select the members (which I;ve done) but obviously you need code and stuff to get it to work which I think will be too complicated. Is there a simpiler way or is the form the only thing that will work?
Thanks
Kris

DLookup With Criteria = User Input From Like()?

Dec 5, 2007

I seem to have run into a snag. I'm pretty sure this would work otherwise:

DLookup(iif(Left( [GenericFieldname1], 4) = "C101","Offered","NOT OFFERED"),"Generic Query")

When I added this field/function to the query, I got #error values and when I clicked on one, I got an error that said:

The expression you entered as a query parameter produced this error:The object doesn't contain the automation object 'Please Enter Year'.'

I assume the problem is that I have the user filter the report by use of the Like() function for [Year] in the query when the report is accessed. How do I tell the DLookup function to search the column as filtered by the Like() function?

User Input Strips Commas

Feb 21, 2008

Hi,

I am trying to get it to display a prompt box that will display entries with a certain ID.

This query can be used to get the records with the IDs of 1 and 8:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE id IN(1,8);

Now this code can be used to get a record with an ID number that the user specifies:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE id=[Enter the ID Number];


So, I tried to combine the two together with this:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE id IN([Enter the ID Number]);

This however doesn't work because the prompt strips out punctuation - so if I type "1,8" in the box, it displays record 18.
Any ideas?

Forms :: User To Input Data Into One Box Or Another Not Both?

Mar 10, 2013

I have a form, and on the form there is a Provider Rate which is a combo box, if the user select a zero rate, then it has the description please enter manual rate in box below. There is another box which the user can enter a manual rate.

how I can limit entry into these boxes, as currently a user can select a rate in the provider rate box and still enter something into the manual rate box. I want it so that if a rate other than zero has been selected in the provider rate box, then they can't enter anything into the manual rate cell.

Query : Group By & Sum Total With User Input?

Mar 15, 2007

Hi all.
Stumbled onto this forum during a google search.. looks like a great forum.

I have a question.
this thread http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=124689

goes into a simple function to group by the name and add their total.. however what i need to do is that plus have a user input of the date.

eg of the table

Date Title Invoice
02/02/07 ABC123 11.00
02/02/07 ABC123 12.50
02/02/07 DEC123 11.50
03/02/07 ABC123 10.50

What i need is a paramater query to be able to work to give me the total of the groups..
Whenever i try to join my Parameter query with my sum query it gets messed up..

heres the code... what am i doing wrong?..
What i want displayed after they input the date is the group by and sum total of the parameter query..

SELECT RawData_tbl.[Title 2], RawData_tbl.[Estimated Value], RawData_tbl.[Date In], RawData_tbl.Quote, RawData_tbl.GST, Sum(RawData_tbl.Invoice) AS SumOfInvoice
FROM RawData_tbl
GROUP BY RawData_tbl.[Title 2], RawData_tbl.[Estimated Value], RawData_tbl.[Date In], RawData_tbl.Quote, RawData_tbl.GST
HAVING (((RawData_tbl.[Date In]) Between [Please Type the first day of the month] And [ Please insert the last day of the month]))
ORDER BY RawData_tbl.[Title 2];

Creating Reports Using Combobox User Input

Apr 10, 2008

Please could somebody point me in the right direction of code.

I have a database which I would like to query using a form with a combobox or two, each of which containing a list of eg. Customer Names, or Reference Numbers, which will then produce a report which can be printed out.

I know basic ADO, like get the database, open it, find records, update and delete records, however I have been unsuccesfully searching for the code to open a report, which will respond to certain sql parameters that correspond with the values in the combobox. And then be able to print that report if possible.

I would be much appreciative if anyone would point me in the right direction,
Thanks!!

Query Needing Like And A Place For User To Input

Apr 14, 2008

Okay my access skills are low at best and I'm trying to build a database for work so hopefully this isn't to stupid of a question.

I'm trying to creat a query that will allow the user to type in a work type and have it generate the all records containing that work type. The way the data is in there to get it to generate just a specific work type without the input I have to use Like "*newacct*" for example. Is there any way to do this since there are more then one work types for some records?

Thank you

Auto-modify User Form Input

Feb 2, 2006

I have a form where a user will enter a 11 digit number (12345043456). Using ASP (VB) this string of numbers queries an access database and returns the entry for that specific number to the user.

Unfortunately, the numbers in the access table are an 11 digit number with hyphens seperating the string like this 12345-04-3456 (the ndc # of a pharmaceutical).

So What i need is some code that monitors and modifies the form input so that the hyphens are added in to the string when the user is inputting the data.

If i cannot do this, then is there some VB that I can add which modifies the field in the text file when it is imported into access on a daily basis.


Thanks
Terrons

Have User Input WHERE Criteria In An OpenRecordset Method

Jan 27, 2006

How can I have a user enter the WHERE criteria in the Set Rs statement below.


Set Rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT [Net] FROM [tblRecap] WHERE [Yr] = 2000 and [Event] = 'lancaster'")

I would like a message box to ask the user to define the [Yr] = and [Event] = fields since they would change from time to time and then pass the values to the OpenRecordset method. Is this possible? Can someone help supply the code?

A parameter query won’t work because when you manipulate these queries in DAO through VBA you need to supply the parameter value before you open the recordset object. If you don’t DAO generates an error.

Here is my code:


Option Compare Database
Option Explicit


Private Sub ReportFooter_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)

Dim ConsqWin As Long
Dim ConsqLoss As Long
Dim tmpWin As Long
Dim tmpLoss As Long
Dim Rs As DAO.Recordset
Set Rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT [Net] FROM [tblRecap] WHERE [Yr = 2000 and [Event] = 'lancaster'")
Do While Not Rs.EOF
Do While Rs!Net > 1
tmpWin = tmpWin + 1
Rs.MoveNext
If Rs.EOF Then Exit Do
Loop
If Rs.EOF Then Exit Do
If tmpWin > ConsqWin Then ConsqWin = tmpWin
tmpWin = 0
Rs.MoveNext
Loop

Set Rs = Nothing

End Sub

By the way the YR field is a number and not a date so the WHERE clause doesn’t need #2000#

Any help would be appreciated.

Adding User Input To An Insert Statement

Feb 14, 2008

Greetings,

I have a form that contains an unbound listbox that is populated from a table. The user selects multiple records in the listbox and then clicks on a "Commit" button. The "Commit" button then copies portions of the records to another table. (And now that I am analyzing the flow of data, I realize that not all the data needs to be copied over, but I'll fix that at a later time).

Anyway, the code looks like this:

Code: Dim lst As Access.ListBox Dim rownum As Variant Dim vHEDR, vLeague, vFname, vMI, vLname, vClass, vQual, vSex, vYouth As String Dim intResponse As Integer Dim sqlstr As String Set lst = Me![lstHistorical] DoCmd.SetWarnings False For Each rownum In lst.ItemsSelected vHEDR = CStr(lst.Column(0, rownum)) & "," vLeague = "1," vFname = Chr(34) & lst.Column(1, rownum) & Chr(34) & "," vMI = Chr(34) & lst.Column(2, rownum) & Chr(34) & "," vLname = Chr(34) & lst.Column(3, rownum) & Chr(34) & "," vClass = CStr(lst.Column(4, rownum)) & "," vQual = CStr(lst.Column(6, rownum)) & "," vSex = Chr(34) & lst.Column(8, rownum) & Chr(34) & "," vYouth = Chr(34) & lst.Column(9, rownum) & Chr(34)'<<Here>> sqlstr = "INSERT INTO tbl_RosterTest (HEDR, LeagueID, Fname, MI, Lname, ClassID, QualID, Sex, Youth) VALUES (" & vHEDR & vLeague & vFname & vMI & vLname & vClass & vQual & vSex & vYouth & ")" DoCmd.RunSQL sqlstr Next rownum DoCmd.SetWarnings True MsgBox ("Persons successfully registered")

At the <<Here>> point, I would like to proc a single dialog box the query the user for some additional information - 2 items from comboboxes and one is a yes/no. Is there a way to gather the info so I can insert the values into the INSERT string?

Thanks.

Tables :: User Input Once Imported Data

Jul 9, 2013

I am using Access 2002.I am going to be producing a macro that imports a txt file. Once the text file is imported there will be a empty field for a date value. Nothing in the file that is being imported will have a date in it.

I would like to (if possible) to, once the file is in the table, open an input box asking the user for a date (formated as YYYY-MM-DD) and once the date has been entered and the ok button pressed it inputs that date in to all records in the date field.

Forms :: Save User Input Value Into A Table

Mar 2, 2014

I need saving 2 input fields into a table. Here is the situation

tableA
studentID
Name

tableB
studentID
Name
Course
Fee

I have a form with a drop down list, to select studentID from tableA. I selected a dropdown from studentID to display Name, and that I tied to txtName

I then type in txtCourse and txtFee whatever value I want, example:

txtCourse = English
txtFee = 50.00

Now, I'm able to transfer studentID and Name from tableA and save to tableB, and delete the record I just selected in tableA.

The issue is, I can't save the txtCourse, txtFee as I don't know how.

Here is what I have

Private Sub Insert_Click()
Dim strSQL As String
strSQL = "INSERT INTO tableB SELECT studentID, Name FROM tableA WHERE studentID = '" & txtstudentID & "'"
CurrentDb.Execute strSQL

strSQL = "DELETE FROM tableA WHERE studentID = '" & txtstudentID & "'"
CurrentDb.Execute strSQL
End Sub

I'm stuck on how to save txtCourse and txtFee into tableB where I have Course and Fee fields.
