Forms :: Copy Value From Field In Subform To Field In Main Form During Data Entry
Jul 18, 2013How can I get the value from a field in one table (in the sub form) to copy/insert into a field in another table (in the main form) when adding a new record?The main form and sub form are linked using parent/child linking, and the sub form is in a tab.I have table A (Visit Dates) in the main form which is used to record the date of a visit to a church. Table B (Quarters and Peals) is used to record an event that took place at that church during that visit. Note that not all visits in table A require a record to be created in table B - but half or more do.
In tables A and B I have a field called "QuarterOrPealID" and these are both primary keys, though the field in table B is set to 'no duplicates' and in table A it's set to 'duplicates allowed', as table A has its own auto number/pk. They are both linked in the relationships.
So, when I add a new record to table A using the main form, I might then need to click on the tab in the sub form to create a new record in table B, which has to be linked to the same record in table A. When the "QuarterOrPealID" auto number/pk is generated in the sub form (table B), I need that value to update to the "QuarterOrPealID" field of the main form (table A), so that when I'm viewing these records the form pulls all the information nicely together.
1st Field In Copy Of Form Will Not Allow Moving To Next Field
Jun 27, 2005Okay. I am certain that I am missing something real easy.
I have a somewhat large, form. I needed to offer users a similar form, but with a few field changes.
So, I copied the form, added the new fields.
If I work with an existing record and do not change the 1st field's data (idnumber), then no problem.
BUT if I try changing that idnumber or adding a new record, I cannot exit that 1st number.
There is no afterexit info for it or other issue that I can see. (But am I 'blind'?)
I appreciate any ideas.

View 5 Replies View RelatedCopy From One Field To Another (in Different Tables)
Oct 7, 2004I am looking at copying one field to another (held in a different table) by using a command button. I've applied to following code to the OnClick event of the command, but it doesn't seem to work and I'm not sure if you can actually copy between two different tables :
Private Sub Command59_Click()
[enquiry_mainsite]![mainsite_unit] = [enquiry_entity]![entity_postalunit]
[enquiry_mainsite]![mainsite_streetnum] = [enquiry_entity]![entity_postalstrnum]
[enquiry_mainsite]![mainsite_street] = [enquiry_entity]![entity_postalstreet]
[enquiry_mainsite]![mainsite_suburb] = [enquiry_entity]![entity_postalsuburb]
[enquiry_mainsite]![mainsite_state] = [enquiry_entity]![entity_postalstate]
[enquiry_mainsite]![mainsite_postalcode] = [enquiry_entity]![entity_postalcode]
End Sub
This code is basically trying to copy fields from the enquiry_entity table to the enquiry_mainsite table. Does anyone have any insight to if what I am trying to do is fesible?

Apr 27, 2005I have a field called Shipdate. I have created a new field that is called invoicedate. What I want to do is copy all of the shipdates and paste them in the invoicedate field for my old records. From here on out they would be distinct fields but for old records and reporting purposes I need those dates.
Can I do that in a query, do I need a module???
It's probably easier than I think it is.
Thanks.
Copy Autonumber To Another Field In Same Table
Jul 31, 2006I need to make changes to a table already containing data. Currently the autonumber field is simply there as a primary key, but I now wish to use it for another number field (Accession No) which was previously completed manually.
As this doesn't seem possible or practical (as I need the flexibility to overwrite the number sometimes), I just want the autonumber to also appear in the Accesion No field when a new record is added (but be manually overwriteable).
I've had a play with default values and lookups, but with no success, and haven't found anything on the forum. Where am I going wrong, or is this just not possible?
Thanks for your help.

Copy Field Data To Status Bar
May 24, 2006I have a form that resembles a spreadsheet and have data in certain fields that is longer than the field is wide. (The widths are set according to client preference and widening the field is not the solution.) I was thinking perhaps I could use the status bar to show the data when the focus is on that particular field. Right now, the only help on the StatusBarText topic that I can find indicates that the status bar can be "programmed" with static text only, but I was hoping to make it dynamic, depending on the field in focus.
If this is the wrong approach (i.e. can't be done), does anyone have any ideas about how to use an external control to show (and possibly edit) data on a spreadsheet-like form?
The client has been using MS Works and is being dragged into Access only if the transition isn't too painful (for him, lol) and having an ability to look and feel like the Works interface is important to him.
Thanks,

I also created a new field in table2 called pct_name.
What i'd like to do is set table2.pct_name=table1.pct_name wherever

WHERE ((table1.pct_id)=(table2.pct_id));
Thanks in advance

Modules & VBA :: Copy Field1 To Field 2 In Table
Feb 20, 2015I want to save the timestamp created in a table when a user opens the database. My vba saves the computer name and user name and sets the currentuser = yes. The table is mysql odbc, and has the requisite timestamp and id fields. I have a form that I can open that shows who is online at that moment. When a user closes the database, the currentuser field is set =no. All of that works well. Now, I have added a "starttime" field in which I would like to store the timestamp that was set upon opening, since when a user logs off, the timestamp gets changed to the log off time.
Code:
Dim myQry As String
Dim sUserName As String
Dim sUserComputer As String
Dim currentVersion As Date
[code]....
The UserTimestamp in red is the field value of the first record in the table, not the usertimestamp in the user's record. How do I store the log on timestamp in the "starttime" field?
Queries :: Copy Result Of Expression In A Field
Dec 5, 2013I've got these expressions in a query to extract parts of an mp3 file full path from a field and just let the name of the song.
exp: Mid([imported];[exp3]-[exp2];Len([imported]))
exp2: InStr([imported];"")-4
exp3: InStrRev([imported];"")
exp4: Left([exp];Len([exp])-4)
"exp4" is the clean name of the song.
Now how can I update my "song name" field (which is empty) to be same as "exp4" . Is it an update query? If so how can i do it?
