Linking Form Fields To Table Data
Jun 14, 2005Hi Guys,
Haven't done anything with Access since I finished uni and I can't remember much. I'm trying to set up a simple database with customer recording and order taking functionality. Just in the very early stages trying to get basic things working.
I have a form where you enter customer details..at the bottom there is a command button named "Place Order", which will be clicked to go to the order form for that customer. Attachement shows very simplified version of the order form. I need to enter a Product ID, and have the Product Name automatically extracted from the Products table.
How can I do this? I would have done a search...but not even sure what this process is called in Access.
Thanks for any help.

Linking Form To Table
Sep 15, 2005I am creating a Risk Management Database at work. I have created a tab with options to choose, as to log the risk relevant.
i.e. I have a catagory, subcatagory and then Risk boxes
When saving the record it will save the risk but it will not save the catagory, and the subcatagory options choosen? I have a seperate table for this information to appear, Does anyone know how I can make this happen without stopping it from shortening the catagories down.
I hope this make sense. I am sorry I am a little rusty in Access 2003.
Thanks,
Creating A Form And Linking To The Table
Jul 11, 2007Hi Team,
I want to create a form which will act as an outage tracker. I will be having 2 kinds of tables.
1. Type of leave
2. Headcount with employee schedules
3. Goals for outage
Please find the scenarios
1. In the front end as soon as the Team Manager selects his or her name the next combo box should show the names of his agents.
2. Once the user selects the date of leave, if the leave is being marked 48hrs in prior and the total outage is less than the goal then it should show the planned leaves options as per the leaves saved in the "Type of leaves" table or else a message box should pop-up stating the reason for not showing planned leaves options.
3. Also the form should show the %outage marked on the tool for the week.
Need your help as I am pretty new with access.
Regards,
Malay

Dec 30, 2014I would like to filter data from a table using a query (from an data input form). The objective is to output all results if input form field is empty and to output results higher or equal to the type in the field if field is not Null. The query code is as follows:
IIf(IsNull([Forms]![Form2]![MaxDiffInput]);[Maximum operational pressure (bar)];[Maximum operational pressure (bar)]>=[Forms]![Form2]![MaxDiffInput])

Linking Forms, And Data
Oct 21, 2005Hi All, I am having a problem with linking my forms, with linking data.
I have: Main, Landscape, A,B,C,D, Q,X,Y,Z (Forms). On Main there are command buttons for Landscape, Q,X,Y,Z I have linked Q,X,Y,Z by the Code field on Main and the Code field on Q,X,Y,Z.

Any Idea. *NOTE each form has a button called the same as the form, that is how the form appears. I have used SQL's for the Q,X,Y,Z forms. but that is not working for the A,B,C,D, forms.

Linking Data Within Tables
Jan 5, 2005Hi everyone,
I have a quick question. And perhaps a strange setup. We have an excel spreadsheet set up with a bunch of data.
The powers that be would like me to set up a database utilizing the spreadsheet as the foundation of the database. However, they would still like to keep the spreadsheet as one of the primary ways to enter/edit data along with the database.
Therefore, I was wondering if there was anyway..that I can set up a link(?)
between the access database and the excel spreadsheet in such a way that if one is editted the other one would be editted accordingly.
I know this is a replication of data etc etc. But this is what I was asked to do. Im not sure if it can be done anyway.
I know I can link in the excel spreadsheet into the access database...but can I create a table..based on the linked information..and add more rows and column to it?
Let me know your thoughts!
Thanks I appreciate any help!

Linking Data Between Databases
Jul 25, 2013I have two databases that are used by different teams. There is reluctance for both teams to use the same data base because they are used for different purposes etc.
However, there is quite a bit of information that crosses over. Basically, when an order is logged it goes to Database A (DBA) then they import the customer information such as name, address etc. Then the order is passed to team B who deal with the order, who use Database B (DBB). Currently Team B have to import all of this information again into DBB.
What I want to do is link the two databases so that once something has been added to DBA it becomes available from a drop down list on DBB and team B can then import all of the other necessary information they need.
What would be the best way of linking these up? i thought about trying to create a button in DBB so that when it is selected it asks for an order number which would then search DBA for that number and provide a new record in DBB with the first few fields already completed.

Mar 13, 2013I am new to access (2007), There is a datasheet in the form where we enter our time in/time out. We enter data using the form but that is one data at a time only. So I tried to paste multiple data (records) from excel into the access table. After pasting into the table, the data appears in the query, but not in the form.When I go to the form to check if the data I pasted into the table will appear in the form's datasheet...some data appears but some does not.

Oct 13, 2005I have a database for the clients at my work place.
The main table with PK ie FRED001 has main client details (address DOB etc) then i have numerous other tables ' relationship one to many' with their investment details (lots of investments per client), appointment details, pension details, health details etc. The data base works fine in table form all the links master to child work fine but now i need to let the rest of the office loose on the system i am trying to create more user friendly form system with command buttons etc
I have created a form for each table some of which have sub forms in etc on their own they appear to work fine you can view all the records and add a new one
I am having problems linking the numerous forms together and when they are linked together (i also need the child form to auto insert the code from the master form? since it comes out blank at the moment!). At the moment i have the main form with command buttons on it to open up the child forms. this works i can see the current investments already entered on the database but it will not let me add a new investment or a new appointment etc it says that by adding a new invesment under the client code i am breaking the code no duplication rules?? but the child tables are set up with the clientcode allowed to be duplicated ??
I need to have each child table in a new form really since there is far too much information for it to all be on sub forms within the main table.
I have tried to also put the forms on tabs but i get the same result.
basically i need to be able to open up the main form at client X then using command buttons or page tabs move to both view their existing investments and add any new investments. Im sure it is something very simple that i have done wrong but i have been trying to solve this for ages now and its getting me more and more wound up ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!
I have also tried inserting under tabs a small subform list for each table/formie policy number, surname etc to fill in new policies and the name with a command button to the form ( which should then have the details in?!?!) since i figured if these details were filled in then when i went to the form they should be there but tthat doesn't work either
thanks for any help or suggestions

Data Corruption When Linking Tables
Jun 28, 2005Right guys heres problem.
I link to an excel spreadsheet. all the data is except where Ive had to format a "column" of cells as text. This is done because in the spreadsheet the initial user enters data as text, numeric or a mixture of both (hope thats clear).
My problem is the data that was originally numeric and now formatted to text comes out at #num! ( Yes ive posted similar before) However, when ive imported the same data in to a pre-made table to try a different way of achieving the final job the numeric data (now formated to text) comes out like ---- e.g. instad of 1000344 it comes out 100034+007
And now Ive absolutly NO idea what to try next. Its one Ive never seen before. If i go in to either the linked spreadsheet or the premade table and over type the errors with the correct data - no problem!
So it seems like a conversion issue
Any ideas at all - Id be so greatful if you have1
regards

Queries :: Linking Data On 2 Fields
Sep 5, 2014I then have various support queries that group customers based on reason for visit, type of visit etc. I need to be able to link this to my main table so that each customer has a category against them. The issue I have is that some customers will have more than one visit ref, which can also mean they have multiple reason for visits. I need to make sure that when I link my queries back to the main table that the right category appears against the customer and their correct visit ref.

Forms Linking, Populating Data From Search
Jan 23, 2006Hi Experts! I'm having a problem that I hope some of the experts can help me with. I am in the process of designing a database for a health insurance company that does health fairs.
I need to have a data entry form for the nurses to enter the Health Fair results. I created a form for them to search for the Employer group. They type first few letters of the group, click "find group" button and it brings up a subform (frmGroup_sub) with the filtered group. I then have the group number (field PARGRP) hyperlinked to bring up another entry form (frmHF_entry) when clicked. I need the user to be able to find the group, click on the group number, then bring up another form which autopopulates that PARGRP from frmGroups_sub into the new form, frmHF_entry and stores that group number in the table tblHF. Further, they will need to do more than one "employee" for the pargrp. So I was going to make a subform of frmHF_entry where they could enter multiple records for that same PARGRP.
I just confused myself and probably all of you...but the problem I am having is I cannot get PARGRP from frmGroups_sub when clicked to open and auto populate the form frm_HFEntry.
Here is a screen print, maybe it will help explain what I need.

General :: Linking Tables Without Duplicating Data?
Dec 12, 2012I have two tables that I'm struggling with how to relate to each other. One is tblHardware which contains all the items that we sell. There are no duplicates in this table. The only columns are a part #, description, long description, and cost.
Then I have another table with is tblPackages. These are the packages we sell which pull from tblHardware. This one just has an autonumber, description, and image (image I'll add later and not worried about now).
What I'm struggling with is how to tie these two together because one Package will contain multiple items from Hardware however there are multiple Packages that have the same Hardware items (17" monitor for example).
Tables :: Multiple Table Data To Save To A Different Table From A Form
Mar 6, 2014I have three tables: Vehicles; Vehicle Reallocated; and Vehicles Retired. I have a form that runs a query to find all the info in the Vehicles tbl that is not "Retired", not visible in the form. I then have the option to toggle to a Reallocated or Retired form. When i toggle to the reallocated form, i have the like fields in that table (ie Van #, Vin, Make etc) pulling the info from the hidden subform with the vehicle query, so i do not need to fill in repeat data. However, when i add a reallocated date and the new clinic that vehicle is for, i get the record ID for the vehicle reallocated table as expected, but when i save none of the data moved over from the query saves in the record?
How to get all the data on the reallocated form to save?
Table Linking
May 19, 2005Ok...I have an issue that I don't know how to resolve.
I have a table called 'orders' in the orders table there is a place for " quantity', 'colours' and per unit. The cost per unit is based on quantity and colours.
For example: 12-35 shirts 1 colour are $2.85 per unit. 12-35 2 colour are $3.50 and so on.
I would like to be able to put in the quantity and # of colours and the Unit price fills in a field.
I don't know how I can accomplish this.
Linking Just One Table
Sep 4, 2006I have created an Access database application that is stand alone for each account manager/client at our business except for one table that I want shared as a source of data across all separate databases that are created.
I've investigated automatic Database Splitting and this works, except I only want the one table to be split and the others remain unique to each database.
I tried exporting the table in question to another Access database and then linking the table into each other database, this seems to work except that referential integrity can't be set up as it was. Is there any way to keep the integrity between the external database and the databases it links to?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
