vAns = MsgBox("Are you sure you want to delete this record?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Delete")
If vAns = vbYes Then
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, 8, , acMenuVer70
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, 6, , acMenuVer70
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, 5, , acMenuVer70
I'm trying to create a delete function. First, it prompt me whether i want
to delete this record
vAns = MsgBox("Are you sure you want to delete this record?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Delete")
However, after i click 'Yes". Another prompt will pop up and ask me whether i want to delete this record. This prompt is not this prompt vAns = MsgBox("Are you sure you want to delete this record?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Delete")
I think it is access built-in prompt. my qn is that is there any way to prevent the 2nd prompt from being pop up?
Hello everyone .. help me please..I am really new in Access. Currently, i create one query; there i use " AS " keyword for example: Month(date) as month. Later, i wanna create another query which is to update some values of the month. When trying to execute the update code for the month, i always get the error message: month field not updatable. I wonder what's wrong with that. If is not updatable, could you give me some solutions?
I cannot implement search function for my database through List Box Wizard ; it doesn't have option that "Find a record on my form based on the value I selected in my List Box".......
Who can tell me why......
If i don't use this wizard, is there any way that i can implement search function??
I have been searching online for the past couple of days for a thorough tutorial that aids the user to make his/her own detailed database based on example data (that does not necessarily have to be adhered to) supplied as the tutorial progresses.
As a student participating in an advanced computing class, I feel that this would benefit me as I can do as the steps ask and see how certain things are done. I am not a complete Access mug... I have a basic knowledge of the fundamentals, but stumbling accross an in-depth tutorial that details all of the standard features (tables, queries, forms etc) along with possibly some example modules would be excellent and beneficial.
All I have found so far is various snippets - "SQL basics" and "Macros: what they do and how to implement them" for example - these miss the bigger picture I am looking for. Surely a step-by-step tutorial on "Designing and working a fully-featured database from the gound up" is not that rare!

I need some helps I have a table with date + time, how can I query so that it retrieve a 7 days range from today and go back ti 7 days

All I am trying to do is insert to have a form with a "Delete Record" button on it. The problem is I don't want anyone to be able to delete a record, I would like someone to have to insert a password to confirm the delete.
I have a query based on two tables, joined on one field (this field is the primary key in Table A. Table B doesn't have a primary key). When working inside this query, it gives me the option to delete records. However, when I try, the row disappears from the query but then if I save and close and either re-open table A or the resulting query, that record is back. It doesn't actually delete. If I go to table A directly and delete it, it's gone for good.
How can I make it so that when I delete the record inside the query it actually deletes? And if that's not an option, can I make it so that it doesn't seem like I can delete records inside the query so that people don't make the mistake?
I have two simple tables. I want to delete the records from Table1 that are on Table2. I've created a select query that gives me what I want but when I change to a delete query, I get this message: "Unable to delete from specified tables"
I think my problem has something to do with security but I can't figure out what to change.
I have an issue where I need all but 2 users out of my DB on Wednesday morning for billing reasons.
I thought of writting a batch file that would delete the frontend DB from all computers from 8:00 - 10:00 every wed morning. However if a user comes in before 8:00 and have the DB open then it will not delete the front end from their desktop.
Can anyone think of a way to keep users out of a system from 8-10am every Wed?
have searched forum for this but not getting what i want (or maybe i just don't understand very well) but here's my question anyway:
the table is related to several other tables and the cascade delete property is on.
on a master form (with subfrm for related tbls) i want cmdbutton to do this:
when the user DELETE a record, the deleted record (and! it's subdata) must be removed from the current table(s) but copied(?) to another table(s) which won't be accessed by the user, so that i can keep track of deleted records.
do i have to setup DUPLICATE tables (and relate them again) to capture deleted records ? and then have a qry that will cut(?) paste records that gets deleted?
i think i need only one qry that will do all this, but not sure how ?
I have a table with several fields and I am trying to delete one of the fields. It tells me the field in related to one or more tables and to use Database Relationships to delelet the relation. I have taken every table out of the Relation Database, Deleted every query, form that ever related to the table and still can't delete the field from the table. I have done Database repair, delete the entire table and rebuilt it and I still have the problem. Any help out there? Thanks.

Table A Table B Case Case 1 2 2 4 3 4 5 I want the results of the query to delete CASE 2 & 4 from Table A
I have a field that if another field matches the criteria then a user must fill in that field. If that makes sense!!
I have some code that if a user exits without entering any information on it asks them if they want to and if not undoes what the user has entered in the form. This works fine however a user can enter something into the field exit the field then go back in and delete it. When the user then goes to exit it doesnt flag up as it thinks it has been updated. Can anyone help with this.

hello, can anyone point me to a thread that deals with vba code to delete. i am trying to delete a file path in my table and at the same time it would delete a physical file in a directory that corresponds with the deleted file path.
I am using Access 95. Lately when I make a new Form it works for a few tries then I get this error message "The Form Name you entered in either the property sheet or a macro is missed spelled or refers to a Form that does not exits. " Well I know the form exits because I just made it and I can see it. Then when I try to delete it to start over it says it’s deleting the form but still remains in the database. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I have a form in Access 97 which contains embedded charts.
When I try to open the from I get this message..
"282 error when you loaded the form or report. You loaded a form or report that has controls or properties that Microsoft Access does not recognise and will ignore."
If I try to open the form in design view from the main database window I get the following...
"The microsoft jet databse engine stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time." -this happens when I am the only user in the database.
and then
"A problem occurred while microsoft access was communicating with the OLE server."
When I try to delete the form Microsoft Access closes down.
i have created, from scratch, the form again which workd fine but I can't get rid of the old one.
I have a wizard made delete record button on my form and up until today it worked fine. Now when clicked an error message comes up saying: cant find the field 'forms' referred to in your expression. I have no field 'form' in any of the tables or queries relating to this form, in any of my tables in fact, i don't have a clue what is wrong and why it suddenly wont work. Can anyone help please. Thanks

I have a library database that I want to delete a record in my tblStatus when the book is returned. I have found the deleteobject function but it appears that that will delete like a table or query or report or something like that. I have no need to keep track of how many times a certain book has been checked out or that John Doe has checked out books X, Y and Z. As a mater of fact that is exactly what I don't want so I just want to delete the record that says Book ZZZ was checked out by John Doe. When the book is returned I just want it available for some one else.
Is there any way that I can restrict a text box entry from being changed? I am working on a tracking system and presently can capture when a text field entry is added or deleted. I can't capture when a text field entry is overwritten. Therefore I only want the user to delete the present entry and then add a new entry in the text box. Is this restriction possible for a text box?:cool: :rolleyes:
