HI
I am working on a database that holds communications from treatment episodes.
the sub form holds the communications related to that client and that treatment episode.
when you enter a date into the communication record a mesage box asks if this is a new treatment episode and if yes opens a new treatment record. If it is the same treatment episode it just remind you that you are in the same treatment episode.
what i would like to do as an additional cue to the user is that once a client has been discharged from the episode that all communication records change color.
I can get the field that says dc to change color but I want all the fields in all the records from that episode to change color.
any ideas?
thanks
I have an unbound box on a form and, within the box are 25 strategically placed "X" marks (text fields) named X1 - X25. I want only one of the X marks visible based on the value of two fields, i.e., if field "Impact" = 0.5 and "Probability" = 0.3 then X23 will be visible.
Could someone please get me started with the code to accomplish this?
Trying to setup a conditional format for a field on a form based on conditions from another field.
I have a form with [Field1] and [Field2]
I have a 3rd field called [New SMF]
What I want to do is have conditions on [New Field] so that if the value is greater than Field1 or less than Field2 the background of new field turns red.
I am trying to change the color to display when the order close to red.whilst leaving the open records as default. Iam attempting this on a continous form. Currently operating access 2000
Hi, can anyone help me? I'm using an access database to collect information and pull reports. One of the fields in one of the tables contains dates and time. In my query I would like to be able to state that records created after 17:00 and before 08:00 of the next day, get counted in next day reports. (i.e. Record 1 created 26.05.05 at 18:01 would show in my report as coming in on 27.05.05 at 08:00 am). Thanks,
I have a query that I have an expression in that is returning a text value instead of a number value. The field in my table is a number value but when I use the expression it returns it as text. I have done several searched but can't seem to find anything that matches formatting an expression as a number. Here is the expression I am using, the reason I am using it is because I need to return a zero if no records matched the criteria.
Hello everyone. I have a multi user database that is used across 2 sites. In one of the sites the regional settings for 'short date format' is set to dd/mm/yy - the other site its set to dd/mm/yyyy. All the data that its the tables are set to dd/mm/yy. When the second site try to use the reports and queries they permanently error due to the fact that the date look up box is setting its self to dd/mm/yyyy as per its short date format. The IT manager there refuses to change this as its - and I quote 'its not y2k compliant !!!! :mad: :eek: :confused: - anyway. I cant change the data in the table to yyyy as its a text feed and Im not in control of that.
I planned on using a hidden text box to format the date to dd/mm/yy and hence bypass the regional settings, but this queries arent recognising the new foramt and are returning null and blank tables. Im now completely lost and stuck. Can anyone help ??
Have searched for a while, but could not find an answer. Probably is very simple.

I have a linked table that updates regularly. It stores all words in Upper Case.

Hi - I wonder if anyone could possibly help, I have a list box that is populated by a query, which currently populates the list according to which site is selected within a combobox - what i would like to do in addition is to have a check box which controls how much data is shown, ie, if the checkbox is ticked show all data from April 1st onwards, if not ticked to only show the last 12 weeks (84 days)
I have tried to acheive this using the code below:
[Forms]![frmPccAnalysis]![cboSelect] --is used to select the site--
IIf([Forms]![frmPccAnalysis]![chkFilterLimit]=-1,(Between #01/04/2006# And Now()),(Between (Now()-84) And Now())) --is what i am trying to use to either restrict or show all data--
when i run the code i just get empty fields, if i manually enter the "Between #01/04/06# and Now()" statement in the criteria it works fine, just not with the conditial checkbox. Can anyone please point me in the right direction?
My Access is very rusty and I really can't get my head round how to do this!
I have a simple caller i.d. system which detects incoming telephone calls. I have been running an append query where the incoming call number is a query parameter against a table of customer numbers and names. The append query basically adds call numbers, names and times to a call log table.
This all works fine! ...however I realise that if the incoming call number is not in the table of customers numbers and names, no log entry is created. What I wish to do is, if the number is not found to append it anyway together with the time of call. Basically if the query fails to find a result, append details anyway albeit without a customer name.
I'm sure this must be simple but I'm going round in circles. Any thoughts anyone?
i have a query from 2 table. let's say table a & b. i have one form to show the query. the query show data based on what enter on the form.
when someone enter a value, on form, the query use it as filter for displaying data. my problem is one field of my query show data from the second table. if input is AA, the data will be shorted by AA plus showing first colum of table 2. if input is AB, the data will be shorted by AB plus showing second colum of table 2. etc.
so far, i make several query for each kode to display the corect column. can i use 1 query to do that? if not, what should i use? macro/module? please the example aslo.
I have a query that combines fields with an IIF statement adding a comma as the seperator "," is it possible to put a condition on it so that if a field had soley an integer or even a string with a value of 4 or less characters that the comma will be excluded, so for example:
A1 A2 1 Parlmont avenue
changes to: 1, Parlmont avenue
want it to change to: 1 Parlmont avenue
this is how the IIF statement looks like: IIF(IsNull([I1].[A1]),[I1].[A2],[I1].[A1] & IIf(IsNull([A2]),"",", " & [A2])) AS Expr2
where I1 is table and A1,A2 are first and 2nd fields respectively, any suggesetions very much appreciated.
I am looking for a way to format a date in a textfield troughtout my application. I created a module containing a Function that receive a Date as parameter and returns a string. I put : =formatCustomDate([dbColumnName]) in the source field. Everything works fine when the date is not null. However if the date in the DB is null, empty, etc. The function is not even executed and I get a #Error in the field.
Why is the function not executed? Is there another way to do that? The reason I want to do that is because I want to avoid using the formating embeded in Access. I need the Function to return mm/dd/yyyy (00/00/0000).
Thanks
Jonathan
Here is the code I used to do that:
'************************************************* ******** ' Function formatCustomDate(dbDate as String) As String '************************************************* ********
Public Function formatCustomDate(dbDate As String) As String
'MsgBox dbDate
On Error GoTo err_Wrong_Date_Type
Dim formatedDate As String
If IsNull(dbDate) Or IsEmpty(dbDate) Or dbDate = CStr("") Then formatedDate = Empty Else formatedDate = Format(dbDate, "mm/dd/yyyy") End If
Ok, still some visual work to do on this screen, but what i want to do is format the 2nd and 3rd colum as currency. As you can see in the attachement it currentley doesn't show cents. Any help or suggestions how i can correct this would be appreciated.
I have a database that has a form with 3 subforms. Once a user has entered date, there is a command button to print the current record. The problem is, the 3 subforms have a very thick black boarder around them. Is there anyway to remove the thick boarder? Any help would be appreciated.
I am constructing a databse for Time and Attendance and wish to have a cumulative total column for the hours worked in the month, the Time in/out, lunch and TotalHours fields are using the ShortTime format but when the total hours exceed 23:59, obviously the field will not accept this Data, any ideas how i can record the TotalHours worked in a month. Many thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Two questions, which I hope are pretty much straight forward and interlinked.
The first - The below VB is used to populate a text box, taking data from several other fields. Currently, the way I have written the VB takes it right across the VB page. Is there a way I can break it down into sections just to make it easier to work with.
Me.CommentLog = "Appointment held with client - see original log dated " & [Forms]![TblLog4AppointmentUpdate]![DateLog] & ". Outcome of appointment: " & [Forms]![TblLog4AppointmentUpdate]![CommentKept]
Secondly, - commentlog is a memo text box. Is there a way I can get it to populate the memo box again in sections, rather than as single string.
So instead of reading
Appointment held with client - see original log dated 20/01/2005. Outcome of appointment: appointment kept.
It infact reads
Appointment held with client - see original log dated 20/01/2005.
