Data Thelp With Copy And Repeat O Next Point In A Field
Oct 21, 2005
Hi there
I am new to Microsoft access and I am currently exported an advanced revelation database in CSV format to access now because advanced revelation is a multivalue pick database I needed to create a the key for the multivalue fields which I have separated the data which is NI.
Now all the data is separated in order but the NI field only shows once then its blank going down till the next NI which is the next record this is due to to the multivalue fields data that has been separated.
How can I get access to copy the NI number down into the blanks slots till it reaches the next slot and then copy that one and so on in a loop once this is done I can use this as a key field and separate the data further..
So I have this killer report that took me hours to set up. I run it daily and it is great.
I now need to filter it slightly for 1 specific user. So what I did was I copied the query and renamed it. I added the filter I needed. But I don't want to have to re-create the report. Even though I know what I need it will take quite a bit of time to recreate it.
Is there a better way? Can I copy the report (using the same query) but add the filter on the report side?
I have a field for Item Price. It would be a currency field, but I want it to be able to work with up to 6 decimal places. currency only seems to handle 4. So, in the table, i changed it to a Single. In the form, I left the control on Currency.
If I type in $1.43, instead of storing $1.43000000 it stores $1.43003243953
Why is it adding all these bogus sub decimal numbers? Any clue?
Beginner with Access 2010 - making additions to one field in a JunctionTable. Need to extend a field by adding some new numbers but have found it easier to Export to Excel - make changes and replace in accdb.
I have found an Excel formula that does what I want but starts from the number "1".
=INT((ROW()-1)/9)+1
Which starts with number "1" and repeats this 8 times then increments by one and repeats 8 times.
But I want to start with a number of choice (7270 and go to 9028). Have seen some VBA versions but none give me control of the start number. I am then able to update the second empty field on the JunctionTable from a query. (this is a fixed number).
How 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.
I read a lot for work and the material is from many different disciplines. To keep track of all this information, I set up a simple db to keep track of all my references and have fields containing various bits of information for each record. In the beginning, I assigned one keyword to each reference as a means of retrieving articles on related subjects. Over time it has grown to three keywords per record although some of the keyword fields are null. All keywords are in a single, separate table and I add a keyword to a record from a pick-list. When I increased the number of keyword fields to three in tblCatalog, I just added more links to tblKeyword. Now, I am having a tough time trying to query tblCatalog. Obviously, my basic db organization is not right so I am looking for suggestions on how to straighten out this mess. Here is what I would like to do:
* During data entry, select form one to three keywords for each record * During data retrieval, concatenate all the keywords (one, two or three) and list the resulting text in a single control on a form.
This seems like it ought to be easy but not today. There must be something fundamental that I do not understand.
I need to sort out the repeat customer, e.g. I have a list of customer's name, like Nike, Emerson, Alcan, etc... and if they sign another contract with my company again this year, I will name it like Nike 05, Emerson 05, etc...
So how can I get the result of how many customers have signed the 2nd contract with us. I have no clue now... :confused:
Hi, all... welcome back to the new Access World Forums... glad we're still operational, even if some data was lost. It's the minds, anyway, not the data...
I have a query that pulls from 3 transaction tables.
tblTransactions - lists purchaser, amt tendered, other details tblPurchased_Items - lists products and services paid for tblTherapy_Treatments - lists treatments paid for
(Note: these are not separate lists of available items. They're two subforms' tables, one that deals with insurance and one that doesn't.)
I can pull this data fine, but in a case where someone had 1 treatment, but purchased 2 products, the query lists the treatment twice. I do have unique IDs for each table's items, but am not sure how to "list" each transaction once, but each thing paid for once, also.
For example: Joe Blow comes in and has physical therapy and buys 2 books.
My query will show (bogus fields for illustration purposes): TransactionID Name TherapyID TherapyCost ProductID ProductCost 33 Joe Blow 10 180.00 15 12.00 33 Joe Blow 10 180.00 17 19.00
So, if I total TherapyCost it really gives me twice the correct amount.
Can someone point me to a solution? Pardon my rank ignorance, yet again.
I 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.
I 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.
I have a single table / single form on the form we are entering amounts in two fields
Split Net Values Total Net Value
We then have a further two fields
Split Gross Value - which is a calculated field based on Split Net Value plus 20% Total Gross Value - which is a calculated field based on Total Net Value plus 20%
I have a further two fields
Actual Split Gross Value Actual Gross Value
I need to copy the Split Gross Value into the Actual Split Gross Value but still be able to amend the figure.
Also need to copy the Total Gross Value to the Actual Gross Value and yet again be able to amend the figure.
I have a continuous form based on a query. I''ve added a combo box unbound, and the problem is that any data I enter in any cb are repeated in every record. Any ideas how to avoid that?
I need to design a simple clinical database that will allow me to collect and display recurring data. Example. Every year a patient comes into clinic for follow-up. They complete a fixed data set questionnaire, their vital statistics are recorded and any new clinical results recorded. I have created all the tables/Forms but i don't know how to automatically add a new event that repeats the same data. So far i have 5 excessive years worth of follow-up data. Sadly, I have had to make massive tables by copying the identical data with either a 1,2,3,,, to signify a different year.
We have been trying to copy data from a combo box to a field without any success.
=== Private Sub PortfolioCode_AfterUpdate() ' From the combo box "PortfolioCodek" Place the field data into Column # 1 Me.PortfolioCode = Me.Broker.Column(1) End Sub ===
I am using access 2010. I technically have an unbound form but I am changing the record source by command buttons. Switching between 3 command buttons. My problem is that I have a subform that I was linking to the form to an unbound search field. Now I want to switch the master and child links to a field on the form when I switch the record source which happen to be the same field as the unbound search field; however; it still pulls from the unbound search field rather than the field on the form. Do I need to delete the search field in order to get is to point to the appropriate field?
I am currently updating an old Db which rosters staff. One of the enhancements will allow the user to automatically allocate staff details to a Roster after a given date. i.e. Roster date 20th Feb 15, repeat for 3 days. 21st 22nd 23rd Feb 15. I have created a form with a medium date field and then a Combo box with drop down values of 1 thru 7 days. I want to link the combo box value to the Date box.
In my office we have used Access 2002 for many years. We enter data directly into a table. Many values are repeated row after row, with only slight changes in a few fields. I am looking for a way to automatically have the previous value in a field entered into the current row, and allow this value to be modified if it has changed, but then become the new "default" value for following rows. I have searched the web and found solutions when using forms, but nothing for entering data directly into a table. I have also seen the suggestion for Ctrl + ', this works but I would rather it be done automatically.
I have a form puling from one table and then a subform in that form pulling from another table.I have a field in the [FORM] called [GROSS REFUND] and a field in the [SUBFORM] also called [GROSS REFUND].I want the value of [FORM].[GROSS REFUND], if the value is not zero, to be copied into a new record on the [SUBFORM.[GROSS REFUND].
I have a query which generates a full list of times and appointments for a given day from two separate dates using a right join and enters a "-" in the field for unallocated time slots using an ISNULL function.
I want to refine the query further so that if a single task/appointment is block-booked in multiple adjacent time slots, I only want to return the start time of the first slot, the end time of the last slot and display the task name once.
The intention is that this will be used to create a daily timetable list in an Access (2000) report with the date being specified in a Combo box in a form in which it will be embedded - though I'm not concerned about the form/report design at the moment, only how to do the query.
I've tried several variations of SELECT DISTINCT and using nested queries to no avail.
I have a main form that has some sub forms on it linked by master child on PK. When I select a new record on the sub forms I want to take a date value from the main form and populate the value into a field in the sub form. How do I do this as I cannot see a new record event on the sub form?
I am using Access 2010.Most of the time a tenant pays his exact rent. When that happens, I currently type in the payment (taken form the Rent field) and date of payment (current date) into a form. The date should not change.
I would like to place a checkbox into the form. If checked, the rent would be entered into the payment field and payment date (current date) would be entered automatically. Otherwise, I would just enter in the payment and date manually.
I'm trying to create a system where if I enter data into one field it will automatically appear in the corresponding field in another table. For instance if I enter the values 10,12,15 into a field called QID in table A I would like this to appear automatically in a field called QID in table B. Both tables are related and I have enforced referential integrity and 'cascade' options but this still doesn't seem to allow one table to automatically update another. My ultimate aim would be to have a form that you filled in data for the field QID once that then propagated to both Table A and Table B.
The following code works to change the column header name for a listbox in form view when the data source is a local table, but not when the data comes from a sharepoint list.
Code: sqlstatement = "SELECT ID, PONum as [PO Number], ActDate as [Date], VendorName as [Vendor Name], Service, BuildingNumber as [Building Number], ReservationDescription as [Description], POAmount as [Amount], QuoteType as [Type of Quote], Comments" & _ " FROM ActivityLog" & _ " WHERE (Activity = 'AcceptReservation') AND (PSCName = '" & Me.PSCCombo4.Column(0) & "')" & _ " ORDER BY ActDate;" 'MsgBox sqlstatement Me.EditPOListBox.RowSource = sqlstatement sqlstatement = ""
Also it appears that there is no such thing as a caption property for a sharepoint list column.
I am using Excel/VBA as a frontend and Access backend. The sheet2 stores the queue name and Queue number. We have to update the sheet1 from column L to column O by looking for the values from the Access table for the date selected from the comboboxes. Now In sheet 2 , it says Queue number and in actual in access table it is the combination of Type & Type1 & Type2. So we have to look for Type & Type1 & Type2 in the table and find out total Batches ,Total Envelopes,Total documents and total pages and then store the values in the ExcelSheet1 from column L to column O.
The following formulas will be used in the select statment:
Total Batches = count(BatchNo) for date selected Total Envelopes=sum(Envelopes) for date selected Total Documents=sum(Cases) for date selected Total Pages=sum(Pages) for date selected
