View 1 Replies View RelatedCombo Box Value To Automatically Put Value From Different Variable Into Text Field
Mar 19, 2005I have requested this before but the example given did not fit my situation and I had a heck of a time trying to adapt the example given to me so I will step by step describe what I need. thanks...
Can someone show me how to do the following:
1) Take a combo box that looks up a table that has 2 variables (Var1 and Var2).
2) Depending on the value chosen in the combobox (Var1) then a text field will automatically have the value (Var2) appear.
3) This information from combo box and text field will then be stored in a separate table that is linked to the form.
__________________________________________________ _____________
Also:
Is there a way to extend this example further by adding another combo box that takes the result from the first combo box to filter in values for the second combo box which will then automatically populate a text box which would then be stored in a separate table.
__________________________________________________ _____________
Someone kind of showed me before but they used unbound variables and this confused me as the combobox was unbound but how is that information stored into my table?
Pardon me for my redundancy but this is frustrating me to no end and I unfortunately have a deadline of today!!!! :(
I think it is the row source thing that confuses me. I take row source to mean where the data is stored. But where do you identify where to obtain the data to then store in your "inputed" table?
Comparing A Date/Time Field To System Date
Dec 11, 2006Hi,
I am trying to compare a value in my databse produced by the date() function, short date format, to one that is exactly 24 hours after the value recorded by the date() function. If the value in the database is 24 hours prior to the current date(), I need to flag a text box a diffrent color to alert the user. I am unsure on the If statement that I will need to produce this result.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!
Thanks

Modules & VBA :: Expanding Treeview Automatically When Node Matches A String Variable From A Table
Jul 14, 2014I'd like to expand me tree view automatically when a node matches a string variable from a table. In other words, when a node in a tree matches the given name (variable), the tree will expand all the way down to that name. I guess I need to use "For each node" and when the node and variable match, the tree structure will show up.
I have come up with something like this:
Code:
For Each nd In Me.tree.Nodes
If nd = level1 Then
nd.Child.EnsureVisible
Exit For
End If
Next nd
Me.tree.SetFocus
But this only shows the first level of my tree ( btw. I have a 3 level tree). I get lost inside the FOR when I want to make use of another two variables - level2 and level 3

View 13 Replies View RelatedSystem Not Recognizing Date Input
Sep 15, 2004I have a form where the user inputs a date into a combo box and then selects a command button.
There are two options:
1. The user can select an exiting entry (by date from the combo box) to edit a existing entry.
2. to create a new entry they enter a new date (not in the combo box).
Then the user selects a command button.
The command button has an onClick macro where the value in the combo box is checked (IsNull([Combo40]))
If the "IsNull([Combo40])" is true a message box is presented saying the date field is blank.
The problem is (finally) if you enter a new date "3/3/04" and forget to hit the enter key the system doesn't recognize the entry, in other words the "IsNull([Combo40])" evaluates to TRUE.
We currently have the msgBox remind the user to hit the enter key but that seems a little low tech. Is there anyway to look at the field and see the data even though the user forgot to hit the enter key??
Thanks
Rnd Based Off System Time/date
Dec 7, 2004Hey all,
I'm trying to find a solution to a problem. Is there any way using VBA to generate a random number, based off the current system date and time? The theory is that a random number seeded by the system date/time will be truly unique and the possiblity of it ever occuring again will be nearly nil.
Or is there a better way to create unique ID's (such as member ID's, or something similiar) based off the system date/time that can be used as a primary key in a relational db.

How To Prevent Subsequent System Date From Being Update
Jun 11, 2006I've design a form as such when i FIRST add a NEW
RECORD, I want the system date to be capture into the
form. I have a table calls Register. And this table
has a field "DATE" which takes the value of the system
date(=now). However, when i open the same record the
next time, the orginal value(at the time when the
record is created) of the field "DATE" will be
replaced by the new system date. However, i do not
want this to be happen because i want the field "DATE"
to take the value of the system date when i first
created the record. My question is how to prevent
subsequent system date from being updated in the
record whenever i open the same record? Thank you.

View 2 Replies View RelatedQueries :: Linking Weekly Rota System To A Date
Oct 4, 2013I have a staff rota system that works on a rolling 4 weekly basis. I am using a table to store the shifts of a person dependent on week. I want to be able to tell access that Monday on week 1 corresponds to a certain date and then get access to figure out the rolling system based on that date.
eg Monday 21/7/13 is week 1 (7 days later it knows it is linked to week 2)
This is so if a staff member is off sick I can say they were off sick on the 24th and it will populate their timesheet with the corresponding shift without me having to input it manually. Doable?

I am trying to get Access to synchronise the client pc system date & time with the Sql server date and time.

View 14 Replies View RelatedQueries :: Unable To Convert Text Into Date With Different System Language Settings In MS Access
Jun 6, 2013I have a table in access database which contains a text field 'EDate' that stores Date value in format (12-Apr-2013). Now I want to run a sql query on that field. User will give an input date. The sql query needs to fetch me all the records from access database whose Edate is less than or equal to the user input date.
I am using DateValue function to convert my text filed Edate into date. My query is something like this:
select * from table_name where DateValue(EDate)<='user_input_date'
I am able to perform above task if the system language settings are 'English'. But if system language settings are different say Turkish, then the query fails.
I searched a lot on web and found that DateTime function compares test data with the system date time format and gives the result. Thus it fails with different language settings.

Aug 13, 2015How do you grab a custom Fiscal Year's values based on the system clock's date?
I am building a query where I want to see the number of closed cases based on the current custom fiscal year with the system clocks date. The report that it feeds only cares about the current FY.
I need the System Clock's FY value in this query
Code:
SELECT shortname AS Station, NZ(TotalCount.TotalCases,0) AS [Cases Complete]
FROM StationList LEFT JOIN (SELECT station, count([Open Issues].ID) AS TotalCases FROM [Open Issues] WHERE [Status]="Closed" GROUP BY Station) AS TotalCount ON StationList.shortname =TotalCount.station;
Within the Query Open Issues I have the FY broken up
Code:
fiscalYear: IIf(Month([Issues].[Opened Date])>=10,"FY" & Year(DateAdd("yyyy",1,[Issues].[Opened Date])),"FY" & Year([Issues].[Opened Date]))
Variable In A Date Calculation
Aug 14, 2005I have the following date calculation :
-----------------
Private Sub StatofLimits_GotFocus()
'--Determines Statute of Limitations accounting for minors.
If DateAdd("yyyy", 18, Me.Txt14) > Me.txtBegin Then
Me.StatofLimits = DateAdd("yyyy", 20, Me.Txt14)
Else
Me.StatofLimits = DateAdd("yyyy", 2, Me.txtBegin)
End If
End Sub
------------------------
Here is my problem. The number "2" in the else statement (Me.StatofLimits = DateAdd("yyyy", 2, Me.txtBegin)in the above example is a variable. The variable is selected from a combobox and stored in an unbound textbox. The variable will always represent a number of years-ie 3 years, 4 years, etc. I need to modify my calculation so that it will pull the variable from my textbox:
I know this isn't correct but this is what I need:
Me.StatofLimits = DateAdd("yyyy", (Number from MyTxtBox), Me.txtBegin)
Can anyone give me the correct syntext?
Pat, If you read this, I did listen. The reason I need to modify my calculation and use a variable is because I moved my Statute of Limitation Dates to the same table and different case types have different Statutes. They can be anywhere from 2 to 6 years.
