Auto Delete Record Button

Oct 7, 2005

Hey.

I have created a button which when clicked imports a table from Excel into Access. Every month the users want to click on this, they want to update the Access table with the updated info in the excel table. My problem is that the whole table is imported again and not just the new rows which have been added in excel. I was just wondering if there was a way to have a button which when clicked it clears all of the records out of my table in access, instead of manually deleting them. So that my users can just click this and then click the import button.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Auto Delete Record On Date In Field

Jan 1, 2014

I have a database of personnel. People come and go all the time; however I can't have a personnel record deleted as soon as they leave. They remain on our books until a specified date for each individual. The date is different for each individual. I was hoping to have a field in their record with the date, and have a query or some code delete that record on the date in the field. Is this possible?

Delete Record Button On Form

Jul 31, 2006

I have created a form and have put a delete button on it to delete the active record. This works fine in that it deletes the record as required.

However, at the top of the form is a combo box which can be used to find records. Once a record has been deleted, it is still listed in this combo box but as #Deleted!. Closing down the form and reopening it corrects this and the #Deleted! entry disappears.

How can I get around this? Possibly by making Access refresh the form after the delete command? If that's the correct solution, how do I do it?! Otherwise, is there a better way.

Thanks in advance,

Gary

Add/Delete Record Button Error

Aug 2, 2006

I am creating a form that includes an add and delete button on the form. I have two other databases that these buttons work with. Using the same VB code (and name of the button) in my current database gives me the following error:

"The express On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: A problem occurred while Microsoft Office Access was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX Control.

*The express may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a user-defined function, or [Event Procedure].

*There may have been an error evaluating the function, event, or macro."

My VB code is as follows for the two buttons:

Option Compare Database
Private Sub add_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_add_Click

DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec

Exit_add_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_add_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_add_Click

End Sub
Private Sub delete_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_delete_Click

DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, 8, , acMenuVer70
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, 6, , acMenuVer70

Exit_delete_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_delete_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_delete_Click

End Sub

Any ideas on what may be the problem and how to rectify this error? All help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

A Button To Delete A Newly Created Record?

Sep 19, 2006

Hokay, firstly my apologies if this is the wrong subforum, but since my question revolves around the behaviour of one of my forms I guessed the thread should go here.

I have a very simple little database which I use to log RMAs (Returned Merchandise Authorizations). The database consists of three forms:

Form A - The switchboard. The main menu, works fine.
Form B - The View/Edit window. Allows me to look at the records in the database and alter them if necessary, works fine.
Form C - The Add window. Has the same form layout as B, but allows for adding records only. This is the one causing problems.

Now the situation is that when I enter Form C, the box for the RMA number gets autofilled out - which is correct - thus creating a new record. However, what I want to achieve is a button on the form that will allow me to quit back to the main menu without saving the record that has been created by opening the form. This is for situations where the form has been accidentally opened, or where a form has been started, but is not required to be finished.

If Response = vbYes Then

End Sub

I don't know what I am missing for the cmd to actually delete it.

Auto Delete Records?

Jul 29, 2005

I am creating a web database where users submit entries using an online form. When they submit the entry, I am saving the entry date and time in a column called Timestamp. What I need to figure out is if there is a way to create some sort of expiration date, based on the Timestamp, that will automatically delete a record after it is 7 days old. Is there a way to do this? Thanks so much for any help that you can give.

Delete Form Button Help

Sep 1, 2005

Hello

I currently have a button that holds a delete command. When the button is clicked, a MsgBox pops up and ensures that you want to delete (yes and no); Yes deletes, No cancels.

Now I need to change it around a bit so that it is more secure. I would like add an 'authorization' code (password). When the msgbox appears, I would like it to have a text box where the user needs to enter in the password, if the password is correct then it would delete, if wrong then cancel.

I need help. I finish my contract tomorrow and this is all I have left

thank you

I have a delete query in my database which I would like to run from a command button on a switchboard. When I use the command button wizard, it does not show delete queries in the menu of available queries. If I create a command button manually I will need VBA code for the event procedure.

Can someone give me an appropriate code for running a delete query with a command button?

Thanks

Forms :: Delete Row From Table Button?

Jul 16, 2013

The purpose of this database is to have a simple form that inputs data into a table. There is a subform view on the form so they are able to see their data that was submitted into the table.

Problem:I have made an attempt at making a Delete Row button. The idea behind this is to allow them to select a row on the subform view and then delete it from the table.

Form = frmEvaluationForm
Subform = frmReviewSubForm
Table = tblEvaluationDatabase

figuring out what is causing this error 3075 (syntax error in query expre. Is there a more specific way to delete a row that has been selected?

Access 2007

Code:

Private Sub cmdDelete_Click()
'check existing selected record
If Not (Me.frmReviewSubForm.Form.Recordset.EOF And Me.frmReviewSubForm.Form.Recordset.BOF) Then
'confirm delete
If MsgBox("Delete this record?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Delete") = vbYes Then
'delete now
CurrentDb.Execute "DELETE * FROM tblEvaluationDatabase WHERE CAccount = " & Me.txtCAccount
'refresh data in list
Me.frmReviewSubForm.Form.Requery
End If
End If
End Sub

Delete Command Button - Continuous Form

Oct 23, 2006

Good Evening,
I wonder if anyone could help me please.........
I have found Ghudsons attached ‘Browsing2’ example to be of enormous
benefit/use to me when I have been creating various Databases, however I was wondering whether Ghudson or any other kind person(s) would either show or point me in the right direction as to how to create a ‘Delete’ facility which is very similar to the ‘Open’ command button on the continuous form.

I have attempted to adapt the enclosed 'coding' to see if it will come up with the result that I want, but unfortunately I cannot!

Attachment kind courtesy of Ghudson
