Duplicate Posts

Jul 11, 2005

i have a table with 3 fields: ID, line_item, and pay_app.

line_item and pay_app are linked to other tables in a one-to-many.

For every pay_app, there can be up to 100 line_items. However, I only want each line item to appear once (at most) in each pay_app. I want to prevent the same line item from showing up multiple times in the same pay_app. Essentially, I want to prevent duplicate entries, but with a stipulation, if that makes sense.

Old Posts

Jun 5, 2005

I'm really afraid to ask this question. I was working on a database for our LawFirm about a year ago but it was a longterm project and low priority. For reasons beyond my control I got away from it and am just getting to back to it. Miles and many of you were very helpful to me in answering my questions. I can't remember the user name I chose and my dob is not listed so I can't find it that way. I have searched what I thought was the user name and every combination thereof. I'm wondering if I got deleted after so long for inactivity? I certainly don't to waste people's time by asking the same questions a second time. Anyone have any ideas how I can find my old posts?

Limited Posts In Access DB Forum

May 2, 2007

Hi there!

I`ve been using Access DB for a forum for about two years now, but from time to time I have to download the db and delete about a 1000 posts (+/-).

The reason for this is that the db want accept more posts unless I do so.

My question is how do I "extend" the db to accept more posts?


Thx in advance,
Sarre

General :: Not Receiving Email Notifications Of Posts

Apr 9, 2013

I don't appear to be getting any email notifications of posts in threads to which I have subscribed.I have Instant in my profile/userCP, but have not been receiving emails for some time. I edited my preferences today again -- I set it to daily, saved, then reset to instant, and saved. Thought that the edit may tweak some anomaly???

Forms :: Prevent Duplicate Values With Alert After User Enters Duplicate Value

Dec 30, 2013

We are working on an Access (2007) database that is on a SharePoint Site (2007).

Currently the form is operational, but there is one last thing that would be nice to have.

The table is "Updated Headcount" which contains "EMP_ID" which are unique numbers stored as text.

In the event a new employee is entered in the system by another user on this site we would like to prevent any duplicate "EMPID"s from being entered and saved on the SharePoint, we would also like to alert the user and prevent the data from being saved.

All data is currently bound, so once the user makes a change it is made, no submit button is required.

We are running into some difficulties in doing a dlookup from the value entered and comparing to a column in the table.

TABLE - UPDATED HEADCOUNT
COLUMN in UPDATED HEADCOUNT - EMPID
FORM CELL user will input an EMPID - newEMPID
FORM CELL used for a dlookup to compare what user has entered to what is already in the table - duplicateEMPID

So below is what we are trying to do, we are sure there are a few commands missing....

=IIF(newEMPID=dlookup([UPDATED HEADCOUNT]![EMPID]), newEMPID, "Error, EMPID already exists")

Duplicate Tag #

Mar 19, 2008

Hi All,
I have a table that has a device column and a tag # column, I want to pull out a report that shows duplicate tag # for different devices, the tag # can only be assigned to one device, I received an excel sheet that has to be fixed, I have the sheet in an access table. Please help. For example: device 123 and device 345 have tag #abc. I can’t simply create a query to show duplicate for tag# because I can have duplicate # only if it’s the same device.

I currently have a table that had 30 fields, the unique fields are survey, date, and business name. I'd like to create a query that will display all of these records so that i can get rid of them. They were imported from another table that another user created. If survey, date, and business name are identical i'd like to get rid of them.

Duplicate Validation

Feb 22, 2006

Hi,

I need to make a database which wont allow any double bookings.

I've got all my bookings in a query and when a new date is entered (via a new bookings form) I need to make sure that date entered doesn't already exist in the query. I have tried a DLookup but it didn't work, however that is more than likely to be a user error, heh.

I've jumped in at the deep end doing this database. I've only done a few step by step databases before hand and the Access Help has sometimes helped my problems but I just can't find the solution on my own for this, I need somebody elses help.

Thanks a lot

Forg

EDIT: sorry if this is in the wrong area, I couldnt think where to put it

Duplicate Data

Feb 10, 2008

Hi I've just signed up to the forum.
I'm currently working on a booking system, where clients can make appointments.
However as I am fairly new to access, I would like to know how I can inforce some sort of validation where for example if a client makes an appointment on 17/02/08, then it checks to see if there are any current appointments of theirs on the day, if there is, then an error message would occur

Help With Duplicate Fields Please!

Dec 9, 2004

Hi, doing my project at college, decided to do a EPOS simulator for my sisters business based around barcodes etc and tied to a database. i've just knocked up something after normalising my data to prototype it to see if it is viable. I'm having problems with duplicate field entries. My db consists of essentially 4 tables at this point:

User : user ID, User Details

Product: Product ID, Barcode, Description, Cost Price, Sell Price

Transaction: Transaction Number, Date, User ID, Transaction Total

Transaction/Product - a compound key which is to manage the many to many that exists between Product and Transaction tables.

I am wanting to allow multiple entries for the same item, i.e. multiple scans, not a single sacn followed by a quantity. I keep getting an error message though that syas I am duplicating fields. I have tried altering the Index property for the fields in the Product/Transaction table but htis has had little effect.

Any thoughts please as to how to do this? I have attached the db for examination.

many thanks, Lol :D

Duplicate Values

Apr 19, 2005

I have a many to many relationship, and one of my tables (the junction table) has only 2 fields (BookID & AuthorID). These fields together are set as primary key, in order to avoid duplicate records. Eventually, if i will try to put a duplicate record, i will get Access error's message "The changes you requested to the table were not successful because they would create duplicate values in the index, primarykey or relationship ..."

What is the best approach in order to check whether a duplicate record is going to be created, and if yes, i will get a customised error message rather than the above mentioned default error message ?

Thanks

Trying To Duplicate Data

Jun 29, 2006

I have a medical database (Access 2003) containing information about patients. There is 1 form that is used to enter the information and a check box to say whether the patient has cancer.

I run a simple query to select the cancer patients.

I want to be able to add a large amount of information about (only) the cancer patients through a separate form. I also want a neighbouring hospital to be able to add cancer patients.

The ideal solution (I think) is to create an extra table to contain the extra information for cancer patients, and some of the informationfrom the original table. Cancer patients need to be automatically added to the cancer table once the "cancer" box is checked.

So far I have not ben able to achieve this - a create table query does not update automatically. I have tried creating a new table with the cancer information and creating a relationship between the tables and basing the form on the cancer table and a select cancer query. This does not work either.

Please can anyone suggest a solution! Do I need another database?

Thanks

Duplicate Records

Oct 24, 2006

Hi

I have a table (which is populated by people filling in a form) which contains two fields:

Section
WeekCom (e.g. week commencing)

I want to make sure that the form will not allow someone to make a double entry. For example, if Sally goes in and says enters "Benefits" as the section and "WeekCom" as 15/10/06, and then Ben tries to do the same - the form will not allow Ben to enter it.

How do you do this please? The table does not have a primary key at the moment....is there any way of doing it without setting one of the fields as a primary key?

Thanks

Maria

Duplicate Identifier

hello,

In excel i used the following formula =IF(COUNTIF(U$2:U$900,U3)>1,"Duplicate","")on one field to find duplicate, but I cannot come up with similar formula on column fields in a table.

Any guidance?

Thank you in advance
