i build a query that filter names.
i want that when the user start to write the name he want to find in the query , he will get a list of names that starting with the same letter he wrote
how can i do this thing in access ?
Ok, i'm very new to access, so please be patient!
Right, disclaimer over, hopefully someone can help me with this.
Essentially, I have a table of employees who have something called an OUC - this is a group identifier which allows us to recognise certain info about them. The first three digits relate to the line of business (LOB) that the employee is in.
ie. John Doe - JPGA2X; Joe Bloggs - JPGB3Y; Frank McRank - JDH3B;
John Doe and Joe Bloggs both are in the IT LOB (as defined by JPG), and Frank is in Finance (as defined by JDH).
I currently put the OUC in the employee table, and have got a translation table for OUC->LOB (ie the left three digits of ouc's, and how they equate to the correct LOB). What i can't work out how to do is get the two tables to interact. How do i get the employee table to automatically work out which LOB the employee is linked to?
I hope this is clear, and that someone is able to work out why i am being such an idiot about this! (it's probably basic principles of Access that i've skipped over in my haste!!).
Thanks in advance,
Ferg.
This works:
Code:
SELECT sum(iif(dDateClosed is null,0,1))/sum(iif(dDateFound is null,0,1))*100 AS Calcul
FROM Q_Defects
WHERE (Q_Defects.dAreaFK)=[Forms]![F_MainMenu].[cboStatsArea];
This doesn't, can't find out why...
Code:
TRANSFORM nz(sum(iif(dDateClosed is null,0,1))/sum(iif(dDateFound is null,0,1))*100,0) AS Completion
SELECT sum(iif(dDateFound is null,0,1)) AS [Found], sum(iif(dDateClosed is null,0,1)) AS Fixed, sum(iif(dDateClosed is null,0,1))/sum(iif(dDateFound is null,0,1))*100 AS Compl
FROM Q_Defects
WHERE (dAreaFK=Forms!F_MainMenu.cboStatsArea
OR Forms!F_MainMenu!cboStatsArea IS NULL)
AND (dShiftFK=Forms!F_MainMenu.cboStatsShift
OR Forms!F_MainMenu!cboStatsShift IS NULL
AND month(dDateClosed)=month(Date()))
GROUP BY month([dDateClosed])
PIVOT month([dDateClosed])
IN (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12);
I am using to select and append data to an output table. Everything is working fine until the last step. The last step appends all the data to an output table from the initial table. The intermediate steps select the data to output.
"AddExpenseToOutput()" is stopping about halfway through the list of criteria. Initially I thought there might be a null in the list, but it doesn't look like there is after dropping everything into Excel to manipulate.
Code:
Option Explicit
Dim rstAccount As DAO.Recordset
Dim rstAccounts As DAO.Recordset
Dim CAccounts As String
Dim Item As String
Dim AccountKey As String
[Code] ....
I'm very new to access, but see it has potential for a big payoff for a project I am doing. Currently, I'm stuck summing across the columns for Step 1 EC (est completion) - Step 8 EC. This may be a poor design on my part from inputting the data in the table. But all of these jobs being a stochastic process with always different steps in machining, I don't know how else to do it.
With all that being said, I would like each Piece Part to have a sum of days at the bottom of estimated completion and actual completion. Again, it must show the total for EACH part.
For example, as shown in the access file in report under "Piece Parts Report" the first part (No. 2 Aluminum Base Plate), it goes through 3 steps... with the steps being 1, 5, and 5 days respectively. I'd like for it to show at the bottom a total of 11 days for that part to be manufactured.
I have a database which is working ok where i have a set of tasks in a table with a bunch of irrelevant fields. On creation of a task i assign users to those tasks into a multivalue field(this is all fine).
Using a query i can report to each user what tasks they are assigned to easily.
To make the database more complex i would now like to assign these users to a task and then allow them to assign there portion complete (but not the whole task complete) but i can not assign a bool variable to a .value (can i?).
My thoughts are my database is just not set up for this by using the multivalue field to hold the assigned users?
I have a task completion database. Each record of model consists of an expiry date. I need to review and update the records before the expiry date. Each model may have more than one record as I have updated the models a couple of times. I would like to select all of records with the expiry date less than 30 days so I can plan to review and update them on time. How to select all these records.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using the following expression to calculate a completion date for a project which is based on the due date. My problem that I am running into is when I get to a project that is due on a Tuesday, it returns a date for Sunday when it should be Friday.
IIf(Weekday([Due Date])=2,DateAdd("d",-4,[Due Date]),DateAdd("d",-2,[Due Date]))
I am in the process of development of a database and one of the functionality that I would like to achieve is a custom ID to become automatic on my 'ADD-CUSTOMER' form (e.g. CID0001 - CID0002) so on an so forth. From my research all I can see in access 2010 is a autonumber which cannot be altered (or at least i don't know how).

any ideas???
I am tying to create a setup application in access. The setup forms are incorporated in the database application.It has to split my database into a FE and BE so that the corresponding files can be placed in thier corresponding files folders automatically.
Iam doing this because the database has to be exported to a number of remote locations every after two weeks.
Apart from using the Database Splitter, Could there be any Ideas on how i can split and link my database through code.
I am using DMax function for my custom autonumber
I just realized that when using this in a multi user environment, I am getting duplications.
This field is not the primary key, and I am using this as a group ID and cannot set it to “no duplications”
My form also has a sub form, and when entering the sub form, the main record gets saved automatically.
First I added the following procedure
Private Sub Form_AfterInsert()
If IsNull(Me.OrderNo) Then
Me. OrderNo = DMax("OrderNo ", "tblOrder") + 1
End If
Private Sub cmdSave_Click()
If IsNull(Me.OrderNo) Then
Me. OrderNo = DMax("OrderNo ", "tblOrder") + 1
End If
However, I then realized the after insert function will add the new autonumber to the form. However, it will not saved it to the table until the main record is saved again (which may not happen)
“DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord” doesn’t seems to be working after the “Form_AfterInsert”
Now I moved the code to the “Form_BeforeUpdate” (still testing)
Does anyone have any experience on this problem?
Thank you

Hi there,I know very little about Access but been asked to find out if this is possible:On a database we have a date field for when subscription is due, is there any way that if a DirectDebit method of payment has been chosen, when the date of renewal is, access will automatically update the year to the next one?Thank you very muchCathy
View 1 Replies View RelatedOur small newspaper needs to create a database of subscribers from which we can print labels in what the post office calls "Walk Sort" order, the order in which the mail carrier hand delivers the mail on his route. The number associated with a particular subscriber is not fixed because if another subscriber is added on that mail carriers route, it may fall between two existing entries. So the Walk Sort field needs to automatically renumber up or down when an entry is added or deleted. I will use that field to sort chronologically and print form feed labels.
I've figured out a way to do this in Excel, but I think Access might be a better program to use for this database. My question is, can Access automatically renumber a Walk Sort field if I add or remove entries? If so, how do I set it up to do that?
P.S. I haven't used Access for quite some time, and I wasn't very proficient with it then. :o
Hello everybody,
I have many front end's (using ACCESS 2007 runtime version) in different terminals. Suppose that from 'terminalA', I am assigning a task to an employee who's using 'terminalB'. The user is already looged on to the program by this time, so I want that 'task' to appear on his terminal without him having to press the 'Refresh' button (that I placed on the form) every time I give him a new task when he's logged on so he could see it. How would I do this?
Thank you very much.

I am creating three columns a,b,c in a table in MS access
When I enter the value of a and b, the value of c should be a+b automatically
Is this possible in MS Access, if yes how?
I am building an employee performance report database. Part of this report I need to integrate initial and midterm feedback dates. These dates are as such:
The initial is 30 days after supervision started or annual performance report completed
The midterm is 120 after supervision started or annual performance report completed
I'd like to give the supervisor a set month for their feedback completions as a guidline. If they are a few days prior or after the "30 day or 120 day mark" it is not a big deal, so I am just wanting it to automatically calculate the month rather than a specific day. After a performance report is completed the intial and midterm feilds should automatically update to calculate the new feedback dates for the next year.
The most updated dates need to be available for supervisors to print on a master report on all their subordinates. No need to store older dates (unless the performance report has not been completed yet)
Pertinent Info:
Form: Perf_Report
Table: Rater_tbl
Field Name 1: Initial ::: (format = mmmm)
Field Name 2: Midterm ::: (format = mmmm)
Field Name 3: Date of Supervision ::: (format = dd mmm yyyy)
Field Name 4: Report Completion ::: (format = dd mmm yyyy)
Hi
I have a column which is made up of two parts from the table as follows...
function area .... FINANCE
ID number ... 001, 002, 003 etc
combined together this will make my ID column which should look somehting likie this : FINANCE 001, MARKETING 002 etc
BUT
the problem is that now i need to import some existing data into the tables and it appears as though the existing data has repeating numbers for different function areas
e.g.
FINANCE 001
FINANCE 002
MARKETING 001
MARKETING 002
how would i get this imported into my current table structure?

Hi
I'm fairly new to Access and databases in general but I have built a great database which I am really pleased with, but I want to be able to have a pop-up reminder which is activated when a date in one of the form fields is reached.
First of all is this technically possible?
If it is could somebody give me an indication of how to go about doing it because I have no idea!
If it is not possible, is there any other way around it?
Thanks in advance for your assistance and the simpler you can keep any advice the better!!
Many thanks
Steve
This is going to be a dumb question for all you Access experts, but how do I insert a field that will automatically display the date that the record was created (not updated, but created)?
Thanks!

I have a form that has a combo box. The row source of the combo box is a query with 3 fields. I also have a text box located to the right of the combo box. I would like the first item to the left in my combo box to show up in the actual combo box when selected. Then I want the value of the second field to be automatically placed in the text box. I had this working kind of when my text box was a list box and in the combo box code i put
Me.MyListBox.Requery
But this changed all of my records from that point on. Everytime I change the value in the combo box, the list box value changed for every record.
Please Help.
