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.
I have a table, at the table I'v got these fields:
ID | num1 | num2 | sum
I want that the user put numbers at 'num1' and 'num2' fields and then the 'sum' field will calculate automatically the operator (sum=num1+num2).
I've tried to put any combination at 'Default value' of the sum field (all the fields are numbers , also tried to change the sum field to text...nothing works).
I'm getting a message that 'num1' field is not recognize at the table
(I tried =[num1]+[num2], without the '=', num1.table+num2.table , ...nothing works)
I also tried to do it with SQL command but it dosn't work.
There is any way to do it, is it possible? Or other way to do it at least at Form or at Report ?
Can someone tell me how I can change the increment in an existing database.
The PK is currently Auto ID with each new record currently 1001, 1002 and so on.
What I am trying to do is say starting monday the next new entry begins at 5003 versus 1003, in essence I am trying to change my first number to a 5 versus a 1.
I have a web database in access and I am trying to set up a new table. They key piece of this table needs to be a randomly generated ID number that is between 4-6 digits long. I know that when I set up a new table the ID field is set as "AutoNumber" but I can't seem to modify the properties of this field like I can in Non-web databases.
Is there a way to have a randomly generated ID number that is a specific length in a web database? If so, how can I do this (preferably without VBA since that is not Web compatible)?
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?
I want to put a textbox on a form that will take user input (a zip code) and put it into a table. I'm not sure how to do this. Is it even possible, and if so, any suggestions?
I am working on a database that uses a form requiring personnel to log in. This information comes from a user table and is something that I have added on numerous occasions to various databases. The question I have is in relations to a "lockout." How do I set it up so that someone gets locked out after so many attempts loging in on this form?

I have a report that requires the user's input for a field called UserID.
I also have a form in which I want to have a button that can be used to print off this report (which would involve automatically entering the UserID into it). How do I do this?
Here is the code for the form button that I am using at the moment, but when you click it, Access still needs the UserID (duh!). So, how can I automate the input?
Code:Private Sub Command25_Click()On Error GoTo Err_Command25_Click Dim stDocName As String stDocName = "Menu" DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acNormalExit_Command25_Click: Exit SubErr_Command25_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_Command25_Click End Sub
I have a query showing lots of records of equipment that is in different rooms. I would like to have a form where the user can bash in a room number and all the records from the query that have that room number in it pop up.
hi everybody, im have a database with table called "project". there are many column in this table. my user want to export this table to Excel, but only some of column, with particular order ( depend on him) to analyze in Excel. he asked me to build a form with a list box, drop box,somthing like this, so he can choose what column to export in what order. i try to make a query like this: " Select Forms!UserInput.combobox1.value , Forms!UserInput.combobox2.value,etc, From Project" but it wont work. Dou you have any idea. thanks in advance
I have a table with product numbers and their cost. That table has 3 fields : SKU, Cost, Month. (The cost can change every month, therefore the list is built to have a cost / month)
I want the user to be able to input the data in the table using the form but I would like the form to be sorted Alphanumerically for the SKU numbers and then per month (in their normal order not alphanumerically).
I have a combobox (named month for testing purposes) to force the user to select one of the 12 months and the field type is Text.
Also I am unsure how to "autosort" (or apply a permanent sort) the form whenever it's opened. Will it be applied if I just set the sort and then restrict the user from seeing let's see design mode?
I am need of something that will help me auto populate the user name on a form. What I am thinking of is setting something that is diplayed when the form is open, asking users to enter their name. I then want this name to be populated in the user name of each record they update.
Can anyone help me? This sounds like a pretty easy thing to do , but sometimes what I think should be easy turns out to not do-able!
I am building a form in access and I am trying to find a way where user input isn't possible in the associated textbox when "No" from on option box is selected.
I am building a form to create a user record and at the same time i have some yes/no options which are located in other tables but when i want add a user i cannot select any yes/no options they seem locked?
I am fairly new to Access and my "changed" position at work requires that I learn much more about the software. My first challenge is to learn how to make an existing form prompt a user to confirm or cancel changes. I don't know anything about coding but I searched online and found some coded that is supposed to make this happen. I went to "form properties'' and typed this (below) in BeforeUpdate:
'If the form data has changed a message is shown asking if 'the changes should be saved. If the answer is no then 'the changes are undone
I have an unbound control in data input form requiring to input a 6-digit number. I have put a validation rule restricting more than 6 digits. Most users prefer to enter, say 123 and the system can enter the 3 leading zero for them.
Started a new thread: Rebuilt database and still working with auto number for multi user form. The code I have works for single user but not multi user. Also if someone opens the form and closes without adding anything to the form the number is used with blank record.
This is what I have thus far:
Private Sub Form_Current() Me.[PO] = Nz(DMax("[PO]", "tblPurchaseOrder"), 0) + 1 End Sub
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
How does one have variables automatically appear if one is adding another record from a previous record.
IE. My first record has ClientID and date. If I hit the add record button then how do I make it so the next record has the exact same ClientId and date?
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.
I want to put a textbox on a form that will take user input (a postal code) and put it into a table. I'm not sure how to do this. Is it even possible, and if so, any suggestions?
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
