Automatically Highlighting Multiple Rows In A Subquery On A Form
Dec 3, 2004
Hello!
I have a form with a subquery on it that shows all of the records that the form is based upon. The subquery and form are linked already, so whatever record I change to on the form, the subquery will follow. The records are chronologically ordered by date in ascending order. Depending on what day the form is on, I want to be able to highlight the rows/records of that particular week automatically in the subquery. I was just wondering what method I can use to do the highlighting/selecting of the records if there is such a thing. Hope I was clear...THANKS! =)
I just built a tracking database (I can't post it because it contains PHI, and I do hope I don't have to) and it's been giving this issue starting today.
When I am in a field the cursor automatically goes to the end and highlights everything between the end and where I click. So if I mistype the third character I need to delete everything from the end to the third character to edit it.
It just started doing this when I loaded it up. Does anyone have any idea?

We have a bunch of notes that are stored in a database. The program looks for the notes that are relevant to each order, and it adds them one by one to a textbox.In some instances, when highlighting the notes (as certain parts of them are copied by the user) it appears that you are highlighting the correct text, but when the text is copied and pasted, different text was copied to the clipboard (usually a string that is offset a couple characters).
I can't post an image (I haven't posted enough), but highlighting everything in the text box selects what appears to be blank space. I wish I could show you. Maybe I'll get to the needed number of posts and be able to attach the screencap.
I'm doing a subquery to select the top 5 of products for each supplier. The selection needs to be done randomly on the products for each supplier. For this I have made the following query (based on Allen Browne's example):
SELECT tblProducts_temp.SupplierID, tblProducts_temp.GTIN FROM tblProducts_temp GROUP BY tblProducts_temp.SupplierID, tblProducts_temp.GTIN HAVING (((tblProducts_temp.GTIN) In (SELECT TOP 5 Dupe.GTIN FROM tblProducts_temp AS Dupe WHERE Dupe.SupplierID = tblProducts_temp.SupplierID ORDER BY RND(Dupe.GTIN) DESC))) ORDER BY tblProducts_temp.SupplierID, tblProducts_temp.GTIN;
The query returns a random number of products, but not a top 5. So for supplier X one time 3 products and the next time for supplier X 7 products.The query without the RND function, so just the top 5 works fine:
SELECT tblProducts_temp.SupplierID, tblProducts_temp.GTIN FROM tblProducts_temp GROUP BY tblProducts_temp.SupplierID, tblProducts_temp.GTIN HAVING (((tblProducts_temp.GTIN) In (SELECT TOP 5 Dupe.GTIN FROM tblProducts_temp AS Dupe WHERE Dupe.SupplierID = tblProducts_temp.SupplierID ORDER BY Dupe.GTIN DESC))) ORDER BY tblProducts_temp.SupplierID, tblProducts_temp.GTIN;
I have a subquery on a table which got the previous and next rows from a table. This worked fine, until I started replacing my table with real data instead of dummy-data. I now receive the "at most one record can be returned by subquery" error every time I run it. I checked that I do not have any identical rows.
My query:
Code: SELECT z.DateFrom, z.DateTo, z.ArticleID, z.retailerID, z.Actuals, z.Statistical, (SELECT y.Actuals FROM tblActuals AS y WHERE (y.retailerID=z.retailerID) AND (y.ArticleID=z.ArticleID) AND ((DatePart("ww",z.DateFrom,2,3)-1)=DatePart("ww",y.DateFrom,2,3))) AS ActualsMin1 FROM tblActuals AS z;
I append new rows via a VBA-script from another table.
I wrote a query to return the TOP 32 items for a key. Works fine:-
SELECT TOP 32 [my Disks Coefficients sub].[thier Disk ID] FROM [my Disks Coefficients] AS [my Disks Coefficients sub] WHERE [my Disks Coefficients sub].[my Disk ID]=1 GROUP BY [my Disks Coefficients sub].[thier Disk ID], [my Disks Coefficients sub].coefficient ORDER BY [my Disks Coefficients sub].coefficient;
I then plugged this into a query in the WHERE clause using In (Select Top .....;); [changing the =1 condition to pick up the correct id from the emcompassing query]:-
SELECT [my Disks Coefficients].[my Disk ID], [my Disks Coefficients].[thier Disk ID], [my Disks Coefficients].coefficient FROM [my Disks Coefficients] WHERE [my Disks Coefficients].[thier Disk ID] In (SELECT TOP 32 [my Disks Coefficients sub].[thier Disk ID] FROM [my Disks Coefficients] AS [my Disks Coefficients sub] WHERE [my Disks Coefficients sub].[my Disk ID]=[my Disks Coefficients].[my Disk ID] GROUP BY [my Disks Coefficients sub].[thier Disk ID], [my Disks Coefficients sub].coefficient ORDER BY [my Disks Coefficients sub].coefficient;);
This runs fine but the the number of items returned is for each key is less than if I run the Top query by itself for each key seperately? So when I run it stand-alone for ID 1 I get 127 rows (there are many equal coefficients); when I run it as a sub-query I get only 121 rows for ID 1!
We are developing a complaints tool. Each completed complaint needs to be signed off by 3 leads and I'm hoping to display the progress of this in a form. Obtaining the first is simple and I was able to do that relatively quickly. The subsequence ones are now giving me a headache as it doesn't seem I can reference the initial subquery field in the others.Here's what I have so far:
Code: SELECT COMPLAINT_TBL.COMPLAINTID, COMPLAINT_TBL.CASENUMBER, COMPLAINT_TBL.COMPLAINTANTFORENAME, COMPLAINT_TBL.COMPLAINTANTSURNAME, BUSINESSUNIT_TBL.BUSINESSUNIT, COMPLAINT_TBL.FINALRESPONSEDATE, (SELECT TOP 1 [SIGNOFF_TBL].[SIGNOFFDATE] FROM [SIGNOFF_TBL] WHERE [SIGNOFF_TBL].[COMPLAINTID] = COMPLAINT_TBL.COMPLAINTID ORDER BY [SIGNOFF_TBL].[SIGNOFFDATE] DESC) AS FIRSTSIGNOFF,
I'm trying to add up all the emails in a single string , but I can't access the records one after the other. The best I can do is display the currently selected record's adress ( The one with the black arrow in front ) . I tried browsing through the Fieldname.Value propertie ( in this case Me.Courriel.Value ) . I though I could cycle through all the Controls in the form , but Me.Controls.Count returns 3 , so I figured all the records must've been embedded into one control. Can anyone help me :( ?
(Sorry if this is a documented question , I've tried searching but couldn't find anything )
I have this form which shows an order.... linked to this order are the client, the principal company, and the company that carries out the order. The information for these three companies are all stored in one table (since the information is very similar).
Tables look like: tblOrder - OrderID - ClientID * linked to CompanyID - PrincipalID * linked to CompanyID - Contractor (company that carries out the order) * linked to CompanyID - Date - ...
I would like to make a form that can insert more than one row at one time. Something like add first column, then ask the user how many of the second row they would like, then prompt them for what is in the second row then add the information for the rest of the columns and have a separate row for each of the second column. So every row with have the same first column, but from there have a different row for how ever many desired in second column. So lets i enter for the first column, ABC, then I wanted 3 rows with ABC, then prompts me for the rest of the information for each of those rows separately.Something looking like this, oh and it would be updating an already existing table.
EDIT: I would also like to know if it is possible so it does it in ranges and dont have to do it manually like you enter the first column then enter a range for the second column and a bunch of rows are made with each value in between the range that was specified.
I am using Access 2007. I have an ODBC source feeding data into a table, to which I made a crosstab query that displays the useful data from that source. I need a way to add data(new field), using a form, that is a associated with the lines in the query. I've tried creating another table that uses the sample ID as the primary key, but I need it to automatically create a new row for each query line. Is there a way to do this, or better way to add data to a query. Examples are below.
I have a table with the following columns: Task, Visa type, time it takes to perform the task. There are several taks that are performed for all visa types. I want to create a form to enter data to the table in which for the field visa type I have a list box that can allow multiple values, however, I do not to create a single line with the task and on visa type all the types of visas selected. I want to create a line for each type of visa with the information introduced.
I don't know if this is possible, the reason for which I want for the form to create several rows depending on the visas types is because then I have a query that sums all the types of visas. Can this be possible? I don't want the people to introduce manually directly to the table the data and also that for the same taks they have to enter manually 50 rows with values. I want it to be more simple and easier.
OK, so I have a database with four tables (Well, more than that, but these are the relevant ones). It's to be used for recording the results of site inspections.
"Tbl_Typicals" is a list of products. We'll call its key "Typical_ID". "Tbl_Actions" is a list of tests performed on each product. A given product may have many tests, but each test applies to only one product. Its key is "Action_ID". Each row contains a Typical_ID to link on. "Tbl_PlantComponents" records which products are installed on which site. Its key is "Component_ID". Each row contains a Typical_ID to link on.
The fourth table ("Tbl_Results") contains the results of each test. As a result of the relationships above, each row is specific to a single Action which applies to a particular PlantComponent, which is to say, each row has both a Component_ID and an Action_ID to link on.
So, what I need is a query that pulls all of these together, such that I can use these details as the line items of a subform.
The main form displays the details of the PlantComponent, which is a simple query to relate line items in Tbl_PlantComponents with the data about that particular product in Tbl_Typicals. So far, so easy.
The subform shows the details of each test applicable to that product. It then has toggle buttons and a comment field to indicate the results of the test, the results of which should be stored as a line item in Tbl_Results.
The "easy" way is to use an append query to generate Tbl_Results in advance. This works, but it raises a variety of new issues.
The nice way would be to use a normal SELECT query and have Access fill in the necessary linking fields (the Action_ID and Component_ID) on each row automatically. Now for trivial examples, this is very easy - my main form query manages just that: I created a link between Tbl_PlantComponents and Tbl_Comments (which stores general comments about each PlantComponent which aren't related to a specific test) based on the Component_ID and that works fine - when I edit the Comments field, the row is automatically created and the linked ID field filled in for me.
However, when I need to do it with 2 links, it all falls apart. I've tried everything I can think of, including generating a single-column unique ID to use for the link, but Access just won't autofill for me. It just makes those fields on the form (or in the datasheet view of the query) non-editable because there's no associated row in Tbl_Results. If I create a matching row in Tbl_Results the query works fine, but that's not the point.
Implementation of the query is non-trivial because it requires two outer joins involving 3 tables - All from Tbl_Actions to matching in Tbl_Results, and All from Tbl_PlantComponents to matching in Tbl_Actions. This necessiates splitting the query into two - the first relates Tbl_PlantComponents, Tbl_Typicals and Tbl_Actions (returning one row for each Action for every Component), and the second performs a single outer join (using an AND) between the first query and Tbl_Results.
I am trying to set up a form that will tell me when people are due for reccuring training events. I would like it to highlight the record when they are 1 month away from expiring on their training.
ie. I need the database to automatically put in the date that the training will expire when I enter the date that they had the training.I also want it to highlight in yellow when the training is due and highlight in red if they miss the expiry date.
This should be easy but I can't see how to do it efficiently. I have a small application that books people in for a competition and creates a record for each. At most I get about 500 people registered in a day, I need to be able to highlight when anyone from a specific list of names (no more than about 15 people) comes forward and tries to register. I guess this is some form of CASE statement where I compare surnames against a text array or is there an easier way? ps I don't mind if it's hard coded into the VB code rather than as a look up table. Thanks pps you can do this with conditional formatting but the limit there is three.
I know tables should not be used for viewing but is it possible to search for all values in the table with the data "Not Found" and hilight the box a different color?
I was given a task by my boss to create an appraisal system for our department here in one of the local schools in the Philippines.
Anyway, what I created first a form from which all subjects being offered will be displayed. I did this by having a main form (bind to personal info table) and a subform that displays all the subjects (bind to subjects table). Then, the user will simply click on the appropriate rows bearings the subejct that the students wish to enrolled and when the save button is click, such will be saved into the enrol table.
My questions is, what control will I use to allow me to select multiple rows? and how will I be able to save selected rows into the enrol table?
I have a table of products and a table of ordersEach product requires multiple processes to completeCan I make a query that will lookup the products in the orders table and show a list of all the processes that need to be done to complete all the products on order?The bit I dont get is how can a query return multiple rows for each product?
Could somebody please help me! I am new to access and trying to create a database that brings together information from a number of different sources, into one large database. I need to import a large amount of data from another access table and I would like to just cut and paste it into my table. BUT, I can’t figure out how to add multiple rows at once to my existing table. The data that I am importing contains about 6,000 rows and 4 columns. Can anybody tell me how I can do this without having to manually create 6,000 rows, one at a time? I really do not want to do that. Thank you for your help.
But I am getting an error "Missing semicolon( at the end of SQL statement" and placing a semicolon at the end isn't helping either. I can insert a single row so column type or primary key isn't a problem.
Here's the table structure,
rvp - number (pk) rvp_name - text controller_id - number
Is there a way to select several rows of records in a datasheet view of a table and delete all of the selected records?
Every time I try to delete more than one record at a time, I get the following message: "The Micorsoft Jet database engine stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time."
Then it will let me delete one record out of the selection.
I am the only one in that particular table at the time I am trying to delete the record.
