tblCD/Main: CdID - autonumber, CDName - text ...anything else will be a lookup field that we will get from another table, so we will come back to this table
tblAuthorType - AuthorTypeID - autonumber, AuthorTypeName - text. author type name will have, as I see it, 3 types : Composer, Group, Artist.
tblAuthorName - AuthorNameID - autonumber, AuthorName - text, - the name of all authors, composers and artists that u will pick from later
When I select Author which can be a cdgroup which is fine it will display those cd's related to the cdname. Such as Author TypeName Composer, Group. Artist.
tblTrackNumber - -Name of Song TrackNumID - autonumber, TrackNum
I have a subform and I want it to go to the tbktrack number with Name of Song related to that CD after I select an Author from the list box.
I am fairly new to this I need the vb codes for modification

I set up these tables so then the relationships will refer back to them.
Hi! I have a tables. One is called: products => prdouctID,productName, ProductPrice
I created a dropdown list. To read in the values of productName.
I wanted to have a textbox / label which will update the productPrice. If i select productName as "Pirates", the textbox/label will show $50.00 If i select productName as "Who let them out?", the textbox/label will show $80.00
I have managed to do the dropdown list but cant seem to figure out the label / textbox.
I have lookup fields for CD Group and CD Name Do I need a autolookup Query or Syncronized combo box to perform the following function. Filter by Form CD Group Select from List box CD Name only Display CD's related to that Group
Mormon Tabernacle Chior Cd Group Only display CD's related to the Mormon Tabernacle Chior NOT ALL RECORDS IN THE DATABASE.
I've bent my self backwards on this and get no were I know it might help me with some visual basic coading. The only resources I have is some books on Access I Live in a Rural Area and there are no computer coarses near me that fit my time.
This following procedure I think would be done for example with any Products Database let's Say like Bakery Items NAme of Company Nabisco NAme of ITems Crackers Cookies Only display products by each item Name NOT ALL RECORDS IN THE DATABASE WHICH ARE BAKERY ITEMS IN THE LIST wHEN I FILTER BY FORM
PLease email me at mikevds@optonline.net So somebody can get back to me on this I can even send you some screen shots if you don't get what I am getting at.
I have 2 tables one, Contacts, primary key ContactID this table contains names, addresses etc and one group called Form primary key Form ID, foreign Key Contact ID. I want to store the related contact ID in my form but display firstname ad surname from Contaacts list. This works fine when I am selecting name. List box shows 2 columns with correct data but when I recall the form after making other entries it only displays the firstname. The correct ContactID is stored. Why does this happen.
If I can get this working I would like to concatenate the Firstname and surname to make it more readable but don't know where to begin.
Let's say I have a list of customers. For each customer I have much more info on other lists (order list, personal info list, bank info list, and so on) - all are of course connected properly.
Now let's say a certain customer is no longer my customer, so I want to remove him from the customer-list. But, I want to move him to a different list - past-customers - so all the information that was related to that customer will remain so. In short, I want to remove from the customer-list without affecting the related data.
As expected when we published to Sharepoint additional fields were added to the Access tables [App Created By] and [App Modified by]. We want to use these fields for Audit information however they are always empty. How should they be populated?
I have a table that has the list of "Project design" choices, and I enter in there the choices that a project can be. I then have that table related to a junction table that has the "Project design choices" linked to the "project code." Anyway, I THOUGHT that one of the bonuses to using Access was that if you see something spelled wrong, you could fix it in one table and it would fix it everywhere. However, when I see that I spelled something wrong in "TBLProjectDesignChoices" and I want to fix it, it tells me that I can't because it contains related records.... ok so, if this is bad design.. I may have to leave it because I have spent countless hours doing data entry for this..
I am currently working on an Access Database that houses our security clearance information. Most of the system is up and running but the most recent form has got me spinning my wheels. I have a Word User Form that users will download and complete, once completed the macros will automatically send us the document to be added to our database. Most of this is working the problem is that this portion of the database has multiple related tables and at any given time a user may require multiple records in the related tables. I have created the code to copy most of the information but am getting stuck adding a new record on the sub-form when multiple items are required. Here is a breakdown of the scenario
Word Doc Table 1 = Basic Organization Info Word Doc Table 2+ = Sites to Visit (There could be more than 1 table added here) Word Doc Table 3+ = People to go on site (this might not be the third table based on user interaction for sites)
So far I can get Table 1 and Table 2 data but if there are more than 1 site I cant seem to get the system to create a new record on the related table it is creating a new record on the main form. Here are the lines I used to try to create the related record..
When I put just the above code on a button it seems to have worked as the sub-form showed an additional record was created but when using this on my macro the sub-form is not taking the focus for some reason.
I want to Double-Click on a row of a subform to open a related table/form that are connected with a common ID. So far, I tried the following code, but it does not work.
Private Sub PackingSlipT_subform_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String stDocName = "ProductT" stLinkCriteria = "[PackingSlip_ID]=" & Me.PackingSlipT_subform.Column(1) DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria End Sub
this works fine and i can search using a requery button
however as deptartments are stored in tbldepts
when i change the query to retrieve the dept name instead of number directly from the table and i try to change this on the datasheet subform it changes it in tbldepts instead?
how can i change what dept the employee is in (as in change the number in tblemployee - but display the actual name?)
What I would like to do is create a list box that will only display the information from another form that is related to the current form.So I have a form call Equipment Catalog and that form is related to Equipment features 1 to M relationship and the Equipment Features is related to a Features form M to 1.
So what I want to do is display all the related equipment features in a listbox that is related to the current PK of that form.So if there is only one feature on one form the list box will only display that one item however is there is 6 features on another it will display all 6.I have been trying SQL and Queries but I still can't get it to work.
I have a subform within a main from which switches by entry. The subform is a datasheet. I have two dropdowns in the datasheet and I want to limit one off of the other. I keep getting a prompt. The prompt is Forms!CLTS Subform!Environment. To my understanding it looks like it can't find Environment. Does anyone know the proper format.
This is my code for the second drop down in the subform. Also special note Environment is what I am referencing to and it also is in the subform.
SELECT PackageName.PackageNameID, PackageName.PackageName, PackageName.EnvironmentID FROM PackageName WHERE (((PackageName.EnvironmentID)=[Forms]![CLTS Subform]![Environment])) ORDER BY PackageName.PackageName;
In my simple database (attached), I need to mass duplicate Tasks and their Notes.
I have three tables: tbTasks (PK: Task_ID), tbNotes (PK: Note_ID), jtbTaskNotes (FKs: Task_ID and Note_ID). jtbTaskNotes is my many-to-many junction table that ties Tasks to Notes.
The main form (fmTasks), bound to tbTasks, has a subform (sbfm_TaskNotes) that displays notes associated with each Task. On themain form,you select which Tasks you want duplicated via a checkbox. The append query (quCopyTasks) will duplicate all tasks that have the checkbox checked. All good there. However, I can't figure out how to also duplicate each task's Notes.
I found Allen Browne's solution [URL] ....., but that only handles duplication of one record at a time, whereas I need to duplicate many records at a time (sometimes 10+ records). How do I go about duplicating multiple Tasks and their associated Notes?
Before you ask "why are you duplicating records?": There are times when tasks need to be re-accomplished and therefore need to have a new record. It's easier to duplicate records than it is to hand-jam everything again.
I have a list of class sessions. To help with maintaining attendance, each session has its own roster. I just need to add a functionality so user can make sure the attendance roster is synchronized with the past sessions and future sessions in events of last minute additions/drop or updating names/contact infos. The sessions are related to themselves as below:
ClassID PreviousClassID 1 Null 2 1 3 2 4 Null 5 4
So therefore to propagate the changes into all sessions how would I instruct the query to look for each related ID then checks if it's also related...
I'm thinking I may have to use VBA to do what, but I hope that can be done with a append query.

I've finally figured out how to populate my list box with radio buttons (3 companys listed on the radio buttons, you click one and employees for that particular company populates the list box). Now I'm trying to figure out how to click on an employee in that box and have their contact information populate the subform that holds that info.
After trying unsuccesfully with VB, I considered using a macro that would open the subform where the Last Name = the Last Name clicked in the list box, but I couldn't figure that out (couldn't figure out what the name would be for the selection in the list box) but I would prefer the subform be there permanantly in "add" mode untill a selection is made in the list box.
I'm code ignorant and rely on google and what books I have for reference / copy-past.....any ideas?

I have a private sub on a subform called txtsearchstring_change.
The txtsearchstring box is = to the client_id on the main form.
Basically when the user clicks on the next record button (which is on the main form) it should update the txtsearchstring_change on the subform and then display the new results in the list box.
Im not to sure how to do this. I understand im calling a sub from another form, so i did try a public not a private sub. And i have added on the next and previous button - txtsearchstring_change.
how do i click on my data in a list box (4 fields unbound)) on my (main form) so that it goes straight to my subform fields (same 4 fields from the list box), this will save me on data entry and i can just enter my quantity and it will calculate a total for me.
i don't want a combo box in my field on the subform.
I am having the same problem as some others. I have 2 cascade combo boxes When I select CD Group and CD NAme they display the related values in a list box that's fine.
ex. CD Group Mormon Tabernacle Chior CD Name displays cdnames with that Group. NOW After I click cdnames I want it to go to that record on the subform which is cdtracks so it only displays cdtracks with that record.
The other problem is this might have to be straightened out is when I select a cdgroup and or cdname value it displays that value for all the records. email mikevds@optonline.net so I can send you a attatchment
I am trying to build a training database, I want to open a form which shows the employees details, when open I want the attached Sub form to show a list of training documents completed to be listed. I have got it so that the sub form shows a list but of all the students, but I just want a list for the the specific person.
In the subform i have the layout i want with the text boxes and so on.
Now i have that in the main form the sub form is fairly big, but the problem i get is the subform only displays 1 record at a time. Is there a way i can get the subform to display all the records and for it just to add a verticle scroll bar.
I have searched everywhere but I cannot find the anwser. I'll try to explane.
I have a table in ma database, to make it easier, let's call it Table1.
Table1: Id,Name,Category
Now, In my form, I wanna see this table. I did it with a list, and that works perfect. Now, I want the next thing to happen: If category = 1, then the backcolor of that record should be yellow If category = 2, then the backcolor of that record should be green.
Now the problem is, how can I get multicoloring in my list? or in a subform?
My main form has a union query as it's record source. This displays a list of items for which the user uses this form to apply a category for each of the items. This relationship of item to category is stored in a temporary table. I have a subform with a list box that shows the current selections and is based on the temporary table. The linking of the master and child is based on the "description" field. I would like the user to be able to select one of the items in the list and have the main form go to that record. (the list box has multiselect set to none).
