Create Checkbox In Table

Sep 14, 2005

Hello:
I have a "create table" statement as an action for one of my command buttons (on a form) within my access db. I can create a yesno field with no problem, my question is - how within the same "create table" statement or otherwise with code can I make the yesno field appear as a checkbox?

I can do it within the design view of the table once the table is created, but I want to do it on the fly. Also, I don't want to do this within a form, just on the table itself.

Thanks in advance

Create Query With Checkbox In Result

Aug 21, 2005

I am trying to create a form using VBA which will be a list of people, in a particular group, with a checkbox next to each name. The point of the form is so that the user can check those individuals who shoud not be included in a particular process. The names are the result of a query and the list will be of different lengths each time. I have tried to create a query with the first field being the person's name and the second field a checkbox, which would default to No. Then I would be able to use each name with it's checkbox to accomplish this. What I really need help with is the query, so that one of the output fields is a checkbox.

General :: Using Checkbox Form From One Table To Populate Another Table

Dec 11, 2013

1. I have a table which lists all of the equipment we use in our company and would like to use it as a template in a form so that users can select a checkmark if the equipment is being used that day. The checked items would then be used to populate another table which records all of the equipment the user has selected. I thought the checkmark method would be best so that the user can scroll through the list of equipment and select multiple pieces for the day. The reason I don't use a multi-value field is so that the user can also enter quantity and hours of equipment used in the same table when they scroll through the list.

2. Once all of the equipment pieces have been checked, I would like the user to be able to click a review button which would navigate to the next form with all of the selections for the day. This new form will have the option to go back to the first form if any corrections need to be made. And also have the option to submit the results.

3. Once the user is finished with their selections, the user can then select Submit which will finalize the recorded equipment table and clear the checkboxes and any inputs from the equipment template table (without modifying anything) so that it can be used for the next day and so forth.

I am using access 2013...

Checkbox Updateing Table

Apr 27, 2007

Thanks for your time to look at this... I am working a project that has some checkboxes on a form. I would like to have it so when a checkbox (Check1) is clicked and then the "Submit" button is pressed, it updates a form ("InputH"). I currently have the table set up with Yes/No data types. I need when submit is pressed for the Yes/No checkbox in the table is updated to show a check. Here is what I have so far:


Private Sub Command21_Click()

Dim update As String

If Check1 = True Then
update InputH.Table
Set Completed = (Hazard1 = -1)
Else
update InputH.Table
Set Completed = (Hazard1 = 0)
End If

End Sub

However, when I try to execute the scripting, I am getting an error: "Compile Error: Expected Sub, Function, or Property" and it has the word 'update' highlighted in the line: (update InputH.Table). What could I be doing wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Checkbox To Filter Table

Mar 17, 2005

Hello!

i have a small for you probably problem! I tried to find something here but only bits and pieces could help only a little!

well here is my problem!

i have a form with a subform! the subform is a datasheet by a table!

In my main form I have a check box! what I want to achieve is to filter my subform by current date when i mark the check box and remove the filter when i uncheck it!

i could have it done by query or something but it was a last minute idea! thus i would have to change a lot of stuff doing it that way! the table is already filtered by a combo box record selector!

-----------------------
i have used a code but it does not work probably because there is no filter to activate!

Private Sub Today_Filt_Click()

If CheckBox = True Then Me.FilterOn = True
If CheckBox = False Then Me.FilterOn = False

End Sub

So could i put the filter parameter on the vba part???


any sudjestions????

Thank you :)

Forms :: How To Archive Data In Table With Checkbox

Sep 26, 2014

I need to archive some data in a table with a checkbox on a form. I have tenants table & property tables. Sometimes tenants move out & new move in but i don't want to delete information from old tenant. But i can't have duplicate property id's assigned to different tenants.

So I made a checkbox on the tenants form that sets the tenant to active or inactive with a status column in the tenant table. how do i delete only the property ID so i don't have duplicates when the new tenant moves in?

How do you update table with unbound checkbox? I'd like to add basic yes/no, true/false on update. Currently I'm using a workaround like this

Code:
If Me.chkInkt = True Then
status = "true"
Else
status = "false"
End If

Which is ok if there's one of these, but sometimes I have more...

Tables :: Use Checkbox To Copy A Record In One Table To Another

Dec 13, 2013

Access 2013

I'd like to copy checked records from one tale to another after a user presses a button.

Ex.
The table 'Equipment List' has a checkbox column that the user can check off as they scroll through the table on a form. When the user presses a button, after they are completed with all of the checkboxes, each checked record is then copied to 'Equipment Transactions' to keep a record of which pieces of equipment were used for the day.

Queries :: Can Add Checkbox To A Query That Is Not Bound To Table?

Aug 31, 2014

I have some VBA code that generates a query and saves it. The query is a list of people who will be sent a communication along with the formatting for the communication. After producing the query I want to look through it and decide if there is anyone I don't want to send the communication to. I can't delete records from the query without deleting them from the database or I would simply do this.

I thought I could add a checkbox in the query that I can tick to stop a communication being sent to that person. I only want the setting saved within the query and then when I have finished it be deleted along with the query.

If CheckBox True INSERT Into Temp Table

Mar 8, 2013

I have a form where the user selects check boxes to choose what fields to include in a report. Because of the massive amount of data, I need to send it to a temp table and then on to Excel and not use a query.

I have this line of code, for the insert into temptables for other forms that don't require the yes/no box and it works very well, but I can't figure out how to do it with these yes/no conditions.

This is the execute line that inserts into the TempTable for the other forms:

db.Execute "INSERT INTO TempPicktbl (Field1, Field2, Field3, Field4, Field5)" & strQuery, dbFailOnError

How would I write:
If Check1=True Then INSERT INTO TempPicktbl Field1
If Check 2=True Then INSERT INTO TempPicktbl Field2
If Check 3=True Then INSERT INTO TempPicktbl Field 3
etc.

I'm pretty sure it's the INSERT level where I need to put this code.

Form Checkbox To Enter Text In A Table Column

Mar 29, 2006

I have a column in a table that only is allowed one value, "Repealed" or simply left blank. I would like to have a checkbox on a form that enters the word "Repealed" or removes it depending on whether it's checked or not, rather than having the user enter the word "Repealed" each time.

Can anyone offer direction as to how to complete this? I've not had much experience with VB code.

Thanks

Access VBA In A From (when Checkbox Is Ticked Then Put Text In Field In Table)

Jan 17, 2014

I have 2 tables both linked to SQL Server 1 has policy information and the other has error information both tables are linked with the relationship policy Ref. The error table(table2) has fields Pol ref, Error_Type,error, Comments, response_comments and response_Date.

There are 25 types of error so what I have done is copy all fields from table 2 25 times exlcuding the policy ref and Error_Type but to make them relate to the relevent error I need to setup some VBA code that does an if Error1_checkbox is ticked then make Error_Type ="error1" and Error=1 else if error1_checkbox is unticked then make error_type null(blank).

General :: Group By Query And Adding Checkbox Fields To Update A Table

Oct 24, 2014

I have a invoice system I have created in Access and it did used to work perfectly and then maybe an update Who knows stopped the system working.

I have an customer order screen that has customer details and then a subform within the same form this takes a total of items & costs for this order and then it entered it into the customers table from the order_Details table using me.Order_total = Order_Total.

I know this is bad design but I store it because once the order is places I need the total to be static because the invoice has been sent and so if someone changes the order then the total owed doesn't change.

I then have a reconcile form which is on a datasheet form straight from the tab;e so it is editable which has a checkbox that then once ticked copies the total from the Order_Total in the table to the reconciled field in the same table and then I use a report to show who owes me still.

So I have made a Select query from the Orders table & Order_Details table and used a Group by Order number (Which is the link between the 2 tables) this shows correctly but now not editable because of the rules So I am trying to add an editable checkbox on the same form.

I tried to use a dlookup makes all of the boxes either ticked or not. I've been looking at Recordsets but I'm unsure if this is what I need or not really

So really I just need to see if I should be putting the Total from the Subform into the mainform and then entering it into the table (Like previously) using a calculated unbound field and then using the Afterupdate event to insert the data into the table. but for some reason it just wont work.

I can get the OnClick to work but then as soon as i go to the next record for some reason it then resorts to 0.00 but then the table shows correctly which ever record the form is working on.

Or should I be using the new query based idea to create the reconcile form and if this is the best way I just don't now where to start on how to get a multiple table query that I can then add a reconciled checkbox which then copies the Order_Total from the table to the Paymet_Recieved field.

Tables :: Pull Field From Main Table And Create A New Table With Date Stamp

Nov 4, 2014

I have a make-table query that pulls all the fields from 1 table (MainTable), and creates a new table with a date stamp based apon a form value entered (New Table = MainTableWithDate).

Currently, I setup the query to pull info from the form field like this:

DateField: [Forms]![frmmain]![DateField]

However, when the make-table query is done - all date fields are blank (all other fields are correctly created), and when I look at the new created table (mainTableWIthDate), the typeassigned to the date field is "Binary" (in the form, I've specified LongDate).

Create Table Of Different Columns In Three Tables Join To Form A Master Table?

Jun 4, 2015

I have three tables that contain different columns but linked by a primary column call Name. I want to create a table where all these different columns in the three tables join to form a master table which can be updated regularly either through the master table or the smaller tables. The master table also has the primary column as Name.

If I update the master table with records, it should update the respective linked table and vice versa. I also want to link these tables to my SharePoint site.

Note: except the Name column, none of these tables have any other columns in common How do I go about this?

Create Table From Truncated Info From Other Table

Oct 20, 2006

I'm a relative newbie to the more advanced features available to Access.

If someone could help me or point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.

I have one table that contains companies and associated contact info. Each company can have more than one unique number ID (3 digit alphanumeric).

I want to take this table and run a query to create a new table that will only have one instance of each company name, along with the other contact information. The unique ID's aren't needed in this table (but it would be great if I could somehow toss them in, too).

This new table would then be used to create a form with a combo box containing all of the names to quickly jump to their contact info.

Any and all help would be appreciated. If a query isn't the best avenue for this, then please point me in that direction, too.

Thanks!

Using Data In One Table To Create Fields In A New Table

Dec 7, 2006

Hi there :)

I'm not sure if I've picked the right forum topic for this... It's not a straightforward table question, and I think the only way I can do what I need is with a query of some sort. Apologies if it should have gone in 'Tables'...

The situation is: I'm creating a database (using Access 2003) in which our secretaries can enter exam marks for students. The difficulty is that there are ten papers (exams), each student's exam is marked by at least two examiners and there are at least 6 examiners per paper. Every examiner also marks more than one paper, but doesn't mark all papers.

So, I've got a table with all of the examiners and the papers they're marking and I've got a table with all the students and the papers they're taking. Because we have to enter the marks in such a way that we know both which mark an examiner gave and (obviously) which mark a student received (e.g. so we can look at statistics for each examiner), I thought the best way to do this would be to run a query that created a new table per paper in which the field names would be: Student_ID, <name of examiner 1 for the paper>, <name of examiner 2 for the paper>, <name of examiner 3 for the paper>, etc until the end of the list of examiners for that paper. The student's number would populate the Student_ID field and then the secretaries would enter each examiner's mark in their named field. Like this:


| Student_ID | A.N. Other | J. Blogs | J.Q. Public | Agreed_Mark |
1234A 72 74 73
2345B 65 68 67
3456C 71 73 72
4567D 52 51 52



Listing the name of every examiner (including those who aren't marking that particular paper) isn't an option (and would have to be hard coded into a table in any case, as far as I'm aware, either in a query or in a table design. This is something I'm loathe to do). Ideally, the secretary would be able to press a button on a form and have all the mark entry tables for all the papers created automagically.

The examiners for the different papers change every year, and not every academic marks exams every year, so this data will not remain static. Hard coding a table with examiner names would make more work for the secretaries. (I want to avoid this as all mark entering for all students is done in a single day. This means over 600 students at 3 marks per student [mark 1, mark 2, and final agreed mark] with time to contact examiners with questions... and only 2 secretaries, each of whom deals with a different section of students).

Because of the nature of the marking, it would also make quite a lot of work for the secretaries if we had to cross reference a generic Examiner_1 field with a different examiner for each paper, so the field name really must be the examiner's actual name.

Can anyone help me? I'm happy to do it with either VB or SQL; I'm not a programmer, but I can usually work out what code does even if I can't write it myself. I should be able to adapt anything presented as long as it's complete and doesn't assume that I know the basics. :) I've also got two reference books to hand: _Microsoft Access 2003 Forms, Reports and Queries_ by Paul McFedries and _How to Do Everything with Microsoft Office Access 2003_ by Virginia Anderson.

Thanks very much for your time. :)

-Jen
