i have started to try putting the concrete records i keep on excel into microsoft acces. for each record, i need to make note of the vehicle registration numbers. what is the best way of doing this? if it is possible
Using an example:I have three tables; tbl_weight , tbl_height , tbl_bmi...How do I make tbl_bmi automatically use the weight and height values (height/ weight) to determine the tbl_bmi values? Is there a way to store code behind the tables as if I was in MS excel?
NOTE: Im working in MS Access 2003, only results in this SQL/database (not mysyl, MSSQL etc)
I want to be able to ORDER an SQL query and put the NULL values last.
I have a basic databse:
Table name: PeopleTable Field names: TableID, PersonField, PersonID
The aim is to order by PersonID and put the NULL values last
See pic1.jpg;
The picture (pic1.jpg) shows the database as it is without a query.
See pic2.jpg;
Picture 2 (pic2.jpg) shows the query results when I use the orderby statement (SELECT * FROM PeopleTable ORDER BY PersonID As you can see it shows the results ordered by the PersonID however the NULL values are first.
See pic3.jpg
Desired results, it is ordered by the PeronID and the NULL values are last (NOTE this is an editied screenshot).How can i achieve this is MS Access 2003?
I am developing a simple database for students to register courses using Microsoft Access 2010. I have 4 tables: Student, Register, Course, and Section (1 Course can have many Sections).
Then, there is a criteria that a student can only take up to 6 courses. Hence, may I know that where and how can I include this constraint? I believe that it should be in the Macro (Before Change) of the table Register...
My relationship is: Student -> Register <- Section <- Course
I have a database that had some code that enabled the user to click a button and it would take information from one Access query or table and paste it into specific locations in Excel. This is important because the last worksheet has specific formatting in place.
If it didn't, I'd just use the transfer spreadsheet option and not even bother opening Excel at all with code.
I've got it working well except for the last part. The last query being copied has eight records and only one is being sent to Excel. Same code as the other queries where all of their data is going to the right spot in Excel with the right number of records.
I dont know hot to say this but lets try :rolleyes:
I have about 8 forms each form with a table behind it or a query, so the user starts at the first form selecting this and that, after the selection a button is pressed another form opens the user fills out the information and presses a button and another form opens and so on until all the information have been filled.
My problom is that I want this to be only one window (form), and when the button is pressed this form changes to next window and so on.
Now it works like when the button is pressed a new windows opens and this window (form). The user can see this as a another form I want the first form to change into the second and the second to third and so on.
Hopefully someone understands what I am trying to say.

soooo now my client wants the program i just wrote on his brand new server that he doesn't know how to use. i've semi-split my db (i kept my lookup tables with the program to save room for data). i'm not very familiar w/networking. my assumption is that i just put the BE on the server and put the FE on their machines, but i was wondering if i could put both the FE and the BE on the server with a shortcut to the FE so that i could update it and not have to worry about making sure everyone has the most recent copy.
anyone have any suggestions on how to make this run smoothly and make it appear as though i have some semblance of what i'm supposed to be doing?
I have created an Access DB for personal use and I am willing to sort the queries in folders. I haven't found a way to do this, is it actually possible?
Having 40 queries all inside the database window is not so convinient...
I have been trying to figure this out for a long time. Any tips/helps is much appreciated it.
I have a table with 3 columns(SSN,DeductionType,DeductionAmount). Let say I have 100 employees. There are 3 records per employee, because each have 3 different deductionType(TypeA,TypeB,TypeC).
I want to create a queryTable that will result with 1 record per individual, with TypeA,TypeB,and TypeC as column names and the DeductionAmount as their values. Make sense? Below is an example of what the new table should look like:
I'm a beginner to Microsoft Access, and I just started working on a project for a marketing company I work for. I have to build them a pretty straightforward database which has tables including Clients, Contacts, Vendors, Employees, Timesheets, etc. The point is to have any employee be able to work with the database and enter any piece of information they have into it. Again, it's a pretty straightforward database. Right now, I am working on a search form for specific jobs. For example, if they need to design a website for a particular company, that specific website job will be entered into the jobs table. I am working on the search form right now so that they can search for specific jobs and they will come up.
One of the sections of the form is a date range, for date received. For example, this would apply if they wanted to search for all jobs that they received between 1/1/05 and 7/10/05. In the query that I am designing for this form, I have the table entry "Date Received" apply to both of the two boxes in the form (I titled them "What Date Received 1" and "What Date Received 2"... my boss advised me to title the boxes in the search forms "What ___" to not get them confused with the forms displaying the information). In the query, the code I am using right now for Date Received is this:
Between [Forms]![Search Jobs]![What Date Received 1] And [Forms]![Search Jobs]![What Date Received 2]
I've also tried this code:
(Between [Forms]![Search Jobs]![What Date Received 1] And [Forms]![Search Jobs]![What Date Received 2]) Or IsNull([Forms]![Search Jobs]![What Date Received 1]) Or IsNull([Forms]![Search Jobs]![What Date Received 2])
The first code works if I have things entered into these boxes. However, if I try to search and leave these blank, I never get any results. I tried playing around with some "IfEmpty" statements, but none of those worked. The second code doesn't work either. Does anybody know how I should modify this statement so that if the "Date Received" boxes are empty, it just ignores it? Thanks a lot.
I would like to display a graph in a form along with the fields from a table. The user will be allow to update the table and the graph will be updated. So far I am able to display the graph on the report but I cannot find a way to display the graph on the form. Can somebody help? Thanks in advance.
I would like to put a query or some look up device into my form so that a certain part number can be found and its form opened for changes. How should I do this?
Hello everyone, new member here. I am in charge of a student sign in sign out database at the college where I work. This database has two forms and one table. What I would like to do is include a text box on the first form, which is the sign in form that will display a running total of the students that are signed in. This text box should count 1, 2, 3 etc. each time a student clicks the sign in button. Thanks for the help
I would like to put my database that I have created online so I can update it from anywhere, and was wondering what are my options - does access have a feature to do this? Or will it involve using dynamic coding to update the tables? I would like to use the forms that I have already created etc ... but is this possible?
I ma going to sound a complete idiot with this question, but I have been working on a database for some time now, successfully putting buttons on forms with the wizard, jumping from form to form, form to report, basically the button wizard used to work now it doesn't and I don't think I have done anything stupid. (I hope). The wizard was brilliant, I'm lost without it. How do you restore it?
Sorry guys, I thought this would be simpler than it was!
Basically I just want to update my "Resolution date" field with the date or time now (which I know how to do) but AFTER I input data in my "Resolution" field ie I want a field to automatically record what time I am entering the text in my "Resolution" field?
How do I do this, and can I do it without writing a macro? I thought it was along the lines of After Update, but now I am confused!
I have multiple tables that are linked to excel. I am creating a product selection tool to make it easy to find the products contained all these linked tables. They are necessary as they contain pricing data and information necessary to be kept in excel which is regularly updated.
Is there a way to create one table containing data from all these linked tables? I tried using an append query but realise that when the linked tables are updated the table containing all the data wont be?
Hey guys im really stuck on this one and hope some one can help me out.
I have the following structure:
Table: Products ID Product Name
Table: Suppliers ID Supplier Name
Table: Prices ID Product Name Supplier Name Supplier Offer
Query: QrySuppliers Prices.ID Prices.Product Name Prices.Supplier Name Prices.Supplier Offer Percent Off Trade: IIf(IsNull([Products]![Trade Price Euros]),0,([Products]![Trade Price Euros]-Nz([Prices]![Supplier Price],0))/[Products]![Trade Price Euros])
Because the "Percent Off Trade" field is unbound to a table I cant get the data into a report, instead every time I open the report it asks me for Products!Trade Price Euros :(
I've never tried doing complicated calculations in Access and would reallly appreciate any suggestions you guys could give me.
I tried to attatch the database but its 508kb so if anyone has a spare second and wants to check it out heres the link http://www.jeron.co.uk/Products.zip
Hey there, Im currently making a form so users can enter project information. For this particular project, the user must choose from a variety of options, and each option has a number value assigned to it for a rating. Now at the end of this form, I want a sum of the ratings, and then entered into the table. I am using a text box for the sum of ratings, and can get the sum of ratings to work on the form, but this data is entered as a 0 in the table. If anyone could help me find a way to put the actual sum in the table, that would be excellent.. thx a lot.
If it would be any help, here are the names of text boxes that I'm adding:
Health and Safety Rating, Maintenance Rating, Equipment Rating, School Size Rating, Student Enrollment Rating, SD Priority Rating, Project Requested Previously Rating
