Queries :: Create Query Where User Will Enter Information In Boxes?

Jun 26, 2014

I am trying to create a query where a user will enter information in boxes (any combination) on a form and a query will bring up the joined information from 4 different tables but I do not know where to start with the relationships on the query let alone the best method to search.

To start it off I have attached a db with the tables and the form I want the user to enter the search criteria into as well as my attempt at a query.

Forms :: Create A Message Box To Flash On Screen To Tell User That Update Code Is Running

Mar 6, 2014

I need to create a message box or a form or something to flash on the screen to tell the user that a piece of "Update" code is running. the update code will be updated reports from marketing returns, but the 3 branches who use the information are separate so I am creating an update form to download and update the table.

The code for the update is already working, but can take a while, so I thought a message or splash screen would be useful as the update runs on start up.

It would have another use, I have a report which is made mainly of calculated fields on an onPrint event and also takes a while to work it out, so a similar screen would be more useful than my current spinning circle and blank screen.

Create A Form Which Allows To Enter Client Data

Mar 4, 2012

I'm creating a Dating Database on MS access, Now I've been given the attributes for all the tables. They are five (Client, Hobby, Meeting, ClientHobby, ClientMeeting)

Now I'm needed to create a form which allows me to enter the client data + at least two interests and their age calculated from their DOB. Seeing as I was only asked to put DOB in the actual Client table, I thought I'd create an Age query and then make that form out of the Age Query. (I already successfully managed to get the Age out of DOB in that query in a field of its own)

However, how can I add the hobbies field to that age query so I can finally create the form that I am required to do?

Second, I am to create a query which will be used for ‘matching’ clients. The criteria that you will use are: gender, age (using a range e.g. 20-25), interests/hobbies and city/town, this query ill be used to create a report which lists all the clients who match the entered criteria. How am I to do that?

Forms :: Forcing User To Enter Data Into Certain Fields?

Nov 23, 2013

i have a form with various tabs and a number of fields. If I could I would just select all fields to "required=Yes" in the table design mode. But some fields should only have data entered if another field has a certain value. So, I think I just want all visible fields for this data requirement (I set some fields to visible=false if I don't want them to have a value).

So far I tried to do this on click of the Submit Record button which I created using the "docmd.gotorecord, , acnewrec" statement, but I can't seem to make it work when combining it with if then msgbox statements. Plus I typed an if then statement for every required field.

Here's my code below:

Private Sub AddNewRecord_Click()
On Error GoTo Err1
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
Me.Label216.Visible = False
Me.CM_2A.Visible = False

[code]....

Queries :: Enter Data Into A Table And Create A Report

Apr 2, 2013

I am trying to create a form to enter data into a table that I ultimately will create a report from. I have created a blank table with the columns I need. I created an append query to add the new records and an update query and a macro to run them on click of a button. It all runs but it doesn't append anything to the table. What am I doing wrong?

Forms :: Restrict User To Enter Data If Dsum Exceeds Total

Sep 8, 2014

I need to be able to restrict users enter a value in the text box (on Form B) called "FTE Assigned" if Dsum of a field called "FTE Allocated" in another form A is less than what is going to be sum of FTE Assigned after the value is entered.

Both these forms are used by users to enter data in the 2 separate tables which are linked together through a join.

Master table - having FTE Allocated values and secondary table having FTE Assigned values.

Basically a message box would do if Dsum (of FTE used) is coming out higher than FTE allocated.

Forms :: Automatically Filter Combo To Show Only Projects That Match Training Type

Sep 13, 2014

I've attached a rudimentary example db to give an example of what I'm trying to achieve.

There is a form on the db called Resourcing with several combos.

When I choose a Training_Type from the first combo it automatically filters the Project_Title combo to show only the projects that match that training type. When I choose a Trainer_Name the text box for team automatically completes.

The bit I'm struggling with is Trainer_Name. As you will see from the table Course_Details not every trainer can deliver every Project_Title. So what I want is to display only the trainers associated with the project title chosen rather than displaying the whole team in the Trainer_Name combo.

Someone suggested a junction table but I'm not sure how this would answer my question. I'm thinking some sort of Dlookup but don't know how I would write it when it has to include data from four fields.

Enter Parameter Value Message - After Sorting

Nov 26, 2007

All,

SQL backend - Access frontend. All clients have the same frontend. Everybody can run the queries with [Please input value] as the criteria. Box pops up, they enter criteria and sort away, works fine.

On one machine, after sorting the results, it will always ask 'Enter Parameter Value'. I've relinked all the tables, checked for missing references, checked the ODBC, pulled across a replacement client. The query hasn't any ORDER BY clauses in, it's not linked to a report, it's just a simple query on one table. Except it seems on this one machine!

I've just tried stripping down the query to a couple of fields and changed the field the user has to input on. Same problem when I sort. So I've tried another table - same problem. It's as though the query is running and then forgetting the criteria?

I really want to put the PC in the skip now but it's got to be something relatively simple. Hasn't it?!!

Any ideas as to which way to turn would be much appreciated!

Many thanks

2. We were given 8 queries to try do, we had to come up with which commands would be used.

I have no 1 completed.

As for no 2.. we are still learning all the commands, so the lab here is for us to find what commands we think will be used. I have researched and have them all 6 queries we have to run.., I have all those commands written out on paper which I think are answers..how to find the command line to test them.

I'm using Access 2007 on Windows 7.

Calc User Totals Table 1 And Enter In User Records In Table 2

Oct 28, 2004

I have two tables. The first contains details of a budget holders money allocation for a given period, and the other tracks their spend on products over that period. How can I generate a query to calculate the total running spend for each user from the "budget spend table" that will be written into the users record in the "budget allocation table".

My aim is to show details of budget allocation, total spend to date and remaining budget for each user in an Order form / report.

Can anyone please advise me on how to do this or suggest another way of doing it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Regards Peter

Type Conversion Failure - I Don't Want To See The Error Message.

Jul 21, 2005

Good afternoon all,

I have a macro that I run. In this macro, I've changed the "SetWarnings" to No. This works since I do not get a "Are you sure..." when I do a makeTable query and the table already exists.

However, I do get a type conversion failure error message.

Does someone know how I click Yes on this without any intervention on my part when the macro is running? Would entering keystrokes in the macro work? I don't think that they will since the next command is not called until the previous has executed ... and I'm getting hung up on the dialog box before the make-table command has finished execution.

I've attached the error message text that I'm seeing.

Thank you for your time and help.

Let The User Enter The Field They Wish To See

Aug 18, 2005

Hi all

Can a SQL query be written so that when the user runs the query, a prompt asks the user to enter the field they wish to see?

i.e. a query is written to return certain predefined fields, plus a field that is not defined. When the query runs an error comes up to enter the field it should search for.

It would be handy for the start of each month, when a new field (month's data) is required. It will avoid updating the query each month.

Thanks in advance!!

VBA Code To Require User To Enter A Value

Mar 14, 2012

I am trying to edit the following code to be able to require the user to enter a Loan number and keep prompting the user to enter a value as long as the field is blank. Once the field is filled in, then the code should go on to check if the sql condition is met and make the necessary change if met, then finally, I have a save command code that will require the user to save the record. Right now I am getting errors when I added the code to require the user to enter a field. I am new to loop and if statements in vba so I am not exactly sure how to structure it.

Code:
Private Sub Save_Record_Click()
Dim SQL As String
Do
If IsNull(Me![Loan Number]) Then MsgBox "Please Enter Loan Number. This is a required field."

Memo Field Does Not Allow <enter> To Create Linebreak

Feb 4, 2006

Hi All,

I have a database with two memo fields. Both have exactly the same properties in table design view.

One field is called 'notes' and when I want a new line I just have to hit ENTER. Result is as wanted.

The other field is called 'responses' and when I hit ENTER, the cursor jumps to the next field (as if these were a text rather than a memo field). it does not start a fresh line. However, this field has not length restriction; I can copy and paste any number of lines into it. But I must not hit ENTER, and I cannot produce a line break.

As I said above, both fields appear to have exactly the same properties in Design View. Why then do they behave differently?

What's wrong? What have I overlooked?

Thanks for your help.

Adrian
