I have a form which I would like to enable scrollbars both horizontally and vertically (the main reason being, the application is designed for users with large / wide screens but may at some point be required on smaller screens)
Currently I have the scrollbars switched off and the form maximises but everything goes to pot if I resize the window. I'd like to add the scrollbars so if a user wants to resize the window to, say, half the screen, they can still scroll across to the 'hidden' parts of the form.
The problem with this is, if the form is maximised - or at least large enough to show the entire form - the area of the screen where the horizontal scrollbar resides is white (whereas the background colour of the form is a pale green) Which is quite unsightly.
I know I can remove the problem by removing the horizontal scrollbar and the navigation bar (which is already gone!) but then I can't scroll?
Is it possible to have a horizontal scrollbar but not have that white space at the bottom when the scrollbar is not required?
(Doesn't appear to be a problem with the vertical scrollbar?...)
How can I change the Vertical Scroll bar color? I want to keep it for using, but the color is always grey color. How can I change the color of the scroll bar?
Hi there, I got a little data transformation problem:
I have got a source table:
ID 1 2 3 1 x y z 2 xx yy zz
That I wanna transform to the following format:
ID ID2 Comment 1 1 x 1 2 y 1 3 z 2 1 xx etc...
The problem is, that I need a routine that takes the column names of table 1 and uses them as values in table 2. So basically, every column of table 1 (1,2,3, etc.) should become a new data record in table 2.
I have a Volunteer Database that has teams. There is only one team leader but some of the teams have two or three assistants. Currently I have a query that lists all the assistants for each team vertically.What I want to do is list the Assistants horizontally under headings like Assistant 1; Assistant 2; and Assistant 3 for each team on one line.
How to Creating a Three-Level Navigation Form, First and second level must be in horizontal orientation, third level desirable be to vertical orientation and dependent of level 2.
I need to replicate an existing report that has a number of 3 columns across the page and has 35-40 rows down the page...it's like a table in Word or a spreadsheet in Excel. I need to print the column and row lines.
Is there a simple way to include these in the report other than me drawing each and every line?
Background: I have a database with one main table that contains info on a variety of organizations and the services they offer. Another table lists regions these organizations are located in. The services they offer are listed in 11 different categories, each with its own field in the main database.
The end product of the project will be several reports. In particular, I need one report that lists by zipcode, each organization, its contact info, and any details about its services. The data for each organization will appear on several lines, as shown below: --------------- Org name Region Address Driving Directions Contact Name Phone Comments
Food bank: details of hours, etc. Hot meals: details.... [any services not offered does not appear or take up any vertical space] ---------------
The problem: Since the reports will be printed and put into booklets, we need to eliminate any blank lines caused by empty fields. In many cases an organization will only have one or two categories, so the other 9 or 10 lines would be blank and take up too much space on the page.
What I've tried: First I tried creating SubReports so I could use VBA scripts on the On Print event on the Detail section to make the SubReport invisble if it didn't have any data (HasData is false). That did make the SubReport not print, but it still took vertical space.
I struggled with various combinations of Can Grow and Can Shrink, but kept having problems with multiple lines appearing where there should hav been one line, and sometimes they were blank lines (especially if I didn't allow duplicates and there were several entries exactly the same). Whenever I got that undercontrol, the fields with no data took up space. Frankly, I'm not convinced I ever got them to NOT take up vertical space. (Maybe I didn't get it right. I'm open to trying again.)
Then I tried concatenating fields onto one TextBox, like this: Code:=("Food Purchase: "+[Food Purchase]+Chr(13)+Chr(10)+Chr(13)+Chr(10)) & ("Utilities: "+[Utilities]+Chr(13)+Chr(10)+Chr(13)+Chr(10)) & ("To Prevent Eviction: "+[To Prevent Eviction]) That works, but it seems like an ugly hack. The Chr(10)+Chr(13) create new lines. The + instead of the & makes it so that if any of the elements inside the parentheses are null, none of them print. So I can eliminate both the label and the new line, too.
Isn't there a better way to eliminate the vertical space when there's no data?
I am using information pulled from a separate database to create a new database for mail merger purposes. I have created delete queries that go out and delete specific records from the new database to help us get the proper list before setting up the mail merge. However, now I am stuck. We have customers that have multiple accounts with us that are qualified for this mailing, yet each customer needs to receive only one mailing. The table looks like this essentially. Table 1id statCode acct custNumber* addy-etc. *This is the field in which we can find exact duplicates. What I need to do is remove the duplicate entries and leave at least one of the entries within the table. It does in fact need to remove the whole record, but as I said leave at least one of the records behind. Can someone please help me to find a solution to this. I guess I should add that I am not very good with Access and I use it very sparingly. I assume that the above can be accomplished using a SQL statement. Any help will be greatly appreciated. LR**EDIT** I also needed to add that I do need to exclude 000 00 0000 from being removed because of duplication.
I need to remove all duplicate records in a table. These are records that have matching Contract and Order fields. I can't do a DISTINCT query, because that still leaves one record. Thanks.
I have imported a table from Excel. The table contains a long list of names and there are quite a lot of duplicates. How do I remove the duplicates so I can import the clean list into a value list in Access ?
I have a table which has duplicate records so I want to write down the code so that when the user click on a button then it should remove the duplicate records from the table.
I have this small database, I would like to have your support to setup this query "QryResults" in order to remove the duplicate records, I can't find a way to get shown only true records, for some reason I'm getting duplicate rows and fake values, the query is calculating operations from two different queries and a table.
I am attempting to filter the data in query design such that it will not return anyone in the database has there name present more than one time.
For example, in the image below under the Owner_Name field there is "Abbot, Mark C Etux Wanda C". This name appears twice in the database. My criteria is the name can only appear once, therefore this record would not be returned after the query. In query design I would like it to return only name records that appear once in the entire database if there is a way to structure that.
I have a competition ranking contestants. A contestant can compete multiple times, each time with a unique registration number.
I am trying to sort by score to rank the contestants, however the contestants can only receive one rank - their highest score (not a sum of their scores, only one score). ? ?
Example: Registration Name Score 2345 Sally 247 3456 George 230 4672 Sally 255
What I want to see: 4672 Sally 255 3456 George 230
I'm using a query to export a table to a text file, i.e.
SELECT * INTO [Text;HDR=No;Database=C:].[test#txt] FROM [TestTbl]
Text fields end up surrounded by double quotes as a text qualifier. Is there a property I can use to get rid of the text qualifier within the SQL (similar to how HDR=No gets rid of the headers)?
I've tried searching and guessing, but nothing has worked yet. Thanks!
I have two tables in my Access database. Table 1 has three columns, First Name, Last Name and Phone Number. Table 2 has just 2 columns, First Name and Last Name. What I would like to do is write a VBA macro to consolidate Table 2 into Table 1 and insure any duplicate First Name-Last Name combination is removed.
Table1
Code: F.Name L.Name Tel.N. John Smith 12345 Larry Miller 12344 Tony Woods 12333
Table2
Code: F.Name L.Name Albert Black Larry Miller John Bush
Table1 Post-Macro
Code: F.Name L.Name Tel.N. John Smith 12345 Larry Miller 12344 Tony Woods 12333 Albert Black John Bush
Issue: We are trying to remove duplicate information for one fiscal year in an ODBC then import and append the correct information from an Excel spreadsheet. The process we have followed is
Copy Master Access file and paste new file (to test, so we do not loose original data)Rename new file TEST.accdbCreate a delete query for Fiscal Year dataDelete information for duplicated Fiscal yearImport correct Fiscal Year information to a new table from ExcelAppend table to master table (ODBC)
Questions:
After being granted permission to delete information, it worked once and now no longer works. When the permissions are reviewed it appears that everything is still granted but the following message is received:
Why does Access change all copies of SDA, even if filenames are different and in different folders?
When we append table, why does it duplicate information?
I need to be able to run a number of queries where some of the queries are make-table queries. What I don't want is to have is all the messages that come up during the creation of the table ie deleting existing files and showing the number of records created to place in the file. Is there a way to block these messages?
