Hi,
I am using a list to display a query. The query has a few fields and one of these fields retreives its values using a look up. The problem is that, when I run it, the value of the look up field displays numbers instead of text.
Any help to fix this problem will be very much appreciated.

Help !! - Can anyone help. I have had a quick look through the previous threads and can't seem to find anything that may help me. Has anyone got any ideas.
I have a table which has many columns, one of these columns is called actions. On the design of the table, the action column is a Text Datatype and on the lookup tab the row source is a typed in list of actions.
A form has been created from this one table. A drop down box has been created which looks at the action column and so drops down to give us our typed in list of actions.
Users will select the current action from the drop down list.
What I actually want to do is depending on what the current selected action is, that the drop down box only shows a subset / filtered list of actions.
I know how this is designed is not the tidiest/slickest way of doing things, But unfortunately, I have inherited this from someone else who has been running the database this way for over 6 years !!
I have created some tables using CREATE TABLE but they do not appear in the list of tables although they are there. How to make them appear.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have several combo boxes and textboxes showing quanity,productname,
size, and price. How can I pass all of this info in a single row that also calculates
the quanity and price. Also, multiple selections can be added, so several items can
can added in other rows. THe ability to cancel each row would be required as well.
Thanks
I created a multivalue list in my table. It contains a list of names and a checkbox. I designed the form based on this and am able to check off multiple names. When I go back to look at the table, it stores in each name separated by a comma. So far so good.
When I create a report to display the data, it displays it as 1,2,3..etc., instead of the names separated by a comma.
What do I need to do to display the names ?
When we browse through records in a subform we store the records in the database.When we want to delete a records for example the third record from the five records always the first records will be deleted. How can we delete the records where the cursor is at? When we are at the third record and press the delete button the third record from the list in the subform should be deleted.
Code:
Option Compare Database
Dim FocusBln As Boolean
Private Sub Identificeer()
Me.[Datum Aangemaakt].Visible = True
Me.[Datum Aangemaakt].SetFocus
If Me.[Datum Aangemaakt].Text = "" Then
[code]...
i have two tables, tblgroups and tblrecipes
on a frmReview i am displaying the groups in a list box so that user selects a group and sees relevant recipes ( which i am displaying in a subform after quering from lstgroups).
Default value for lstgroups is "[lstGroups].[ItemData](0)" so that it always displays first goup recipes... (otherwise subform dont displays anything when i first open the frmReview)
is it possible (which i am sure it is) that when i first open frmreview, the subform displays all recipes in all groups (whole database), so that when i select one group in lstgroups then it run query and filters the desired recipes. May be we can put "all" in lstgroups as first item so that i can use the default value..
thanks in advacne
I am working on my DB for work and would like to display all of the report names that are listed in the Reports-Objects of my DB.
I would like to display a Form with two boxes. The left box would display the names of the reports as listed in the Objects-Reports. When a report is highlighted in the left box it would give a description of the report in the right box. When you double click on the report name it would open the report.
Since I am fairly new to Access could you give me an example of what I would like to accomplish? Your assistance is appreciated.
Thanks,

I purchased a copy of Office 2003, on Ebay, for less than half the price it normally sells for. I created databases, which work well on my computer. However, when I copy them over to the office computer from my computer, via Flash memory stick, the program does not run. The message seems to indicate a problem with registration. When I installed Access, it asked me for a registration key, which I did provide. After that it worked-not activation process. Does this mean that you can only use the computer you created the database on to run it, or that I do not have a proper version of Access 2003? I cannot transfer, from my home computer, to the office computer. Is this Microsoft paranoia again?
Subsequent uninstalls and reinstalls of the program did not ask for the installation key.
What should happen? I would like to resolve this major problem and your help will be greatly appreciated. The program is flaky. Also, Switchboard does not work-must use Option Box.
These questions most user must know about initial installation and copying mdb files to other computers -please reply.
Hi,
Can anyone tell me what's wrong with this:
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO tblPersoaneJuridice (Denumire,Localitate,CodUnicInregistrare,NumarInre gistrareRegComertului,Telefon,Fax) VALUES ('" & Forms!frmPrincipal!subfrmTipVersus!txtDenumire & "','" & Forms!frmPrincipal!subfrmTipVersus!txtLocalitate & "','" & Forms!frmPrincipal!subfrmTipVersus!txtCUI & "','" & Forms!frmPrincipal!subfrmTipVersus!txtNumarInregis trare & "','" & Forms!frmPrincipal!subfrmTipVersus!txtTelefon & "','" & Forms!frmPrincipal!subfrmTipVersus!txtFax & "')"
cui = DLookup("[CodUnicInregistrare]", "[tblPersoaneJuridice]", "[NumarInregistrareRegComertului]='" & Me!subfrmTipVersus!txtNumarInregistrare & "'")
i have a string variable denoted by cui and i need it to take value from table tblPersoaneJuridice from field CodUnicInregistrare. CodUnicInregistrare and NumarInregistrareRegComertului is text.
Have not coded for about 5 years and need a little refresher. Can't remember what I need to do. Thanks
Dim SelectedCompany As String
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Dim Cn As ADODB.Connection
Dim sSql As String
Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
Set Cn = New ADODB.Connection
SelectedCompany = Me!cboCompanyName.Text
sSql = "select Customername, AddressLine1, AddressLine2, AddressLine3, AddressLine4, AddressLine5, AddressLine6 from customers where "
sSql = sSql & "CompanyName = '" & SelectedCompany & "'"
rs.Open sSql, Cn, adOpenStatic, adLockReadOnly
this last line fails with error "No value given for one or more required parameters."
The code is executed when someone selects something in a combo box on a form in an access database.
Thanks

I think I'm just tired, and not seeing what to do here.
I have my main table.
MainID PK
bunch of other fields...
I also have a 'created by table'.
Createdby_ID PK
User ID
Main ID
Date_created.
I also have a user table, with a list of all the users.
User_ID PK
User_Name.
Is this the right way to setup these tables?
Only 1 person can create any paticular record.
I want it to be required tha whoever creates the record selects their name and dates it.
strSQL = ("SELECT onespace2(MeetingMinutes!MinutesID, '.' ) & " - " & [MinutesTitle] AS Item, MeetingMinutes.MeetingCode, Minutes.*, MeetingMinutes.MinutesCode, MeetingMinutes.MinutesID ")
strSQL = strSQL & ("FROM Minutes INNER JOIN MeetingMinutes ON Minutes.MinutesCode = MeetingMinutes.MinutesCode ")
strSQL = strSQL & "WHERE MeetingMinutes.MinutesCode= " & MinutesCode & " AND MeetingMinutes.MeetingCode= " & [Forms]![MinutesMFnew]![ComboMeetingNav] & ";"
cant get it running.
i got the same query running made in the querybuilder, but somethings change, so i need to adjus it in vba. But it doenswork, and get a type error
please advice
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO tblAccessLog " _
& "(DateLoggedOut, TimeLoggedOut) VALUES " _
& "(#" & Date & "#,#" & Time & "#) WHERE " _
& "(LogID = '" & LogsID & "');"
Could anyone possibly tell me why this isn't working? Probably something stupid i've done bus still.
When i run it, I am getting the error message "Query input must contain at least one table or query" yet i've told it to use tblAccessLog so i'm just confused.
Thanks
StrSQL = "INSERT INTO LV (Directory_Name:,Filename:, Total_Files,Total_Records:,Total_Batches:, Total_YH) VALUES ('" & DirectoryName & "', '" & FileName & "', TotalFiles , TotalRecords , TotalBatches , TotalYH);"
Have tried loads of combinations of the " ' and ' " to get it working but just keeps giving me the damn syntax error!!! :mad:
What's wrong with it? Thanks
strSQL = "INSERT INTO TBL_History (Filename, Agent, SentRecieved, Accepted, Notes) VALUES ('" & [Forms]!FRM_ImportSubmission.submission_filename & "','" & [Forms]![FRM_ImportSubmission]![cboAgent] & "','Recieved','True','');"

i've posted it as the sql string is built in the code
i get a 'catastrpohic error' when running it from vb like this and when i build put the string into a query and run it through the access user interface it worrks
I made a number of changes to a DB that was working fine (normalised further). So what's wrong? I have a number of forms (for my sample DB I have stripped down to just one, if I can resolve for this I can apply to others).
qryENTRY_COMPUTERS
ENTRY COMPUTER FORM
The user adds a new computer then selects the Computer Make (qryLOOKUP_COMPUTER_SUPPLIER) & Computer Model (qryLOOKUP_COMPUTER_MODELS).
This now returns error 'recordset is not updateable'.
The query on which the form is based is incorrect (qryENTRY_COMPUTERS). Previously I was able to add tblSupplier & tblSupplierProducts to the query then add field ProductDescription fom tblSupplierProducts to the query. This allows users to select a value from cboComputerModelID (ProductID), field ProductDescription then displays the related descriptive value for the ProductID selected (value remain on screen when user naviagtes between records.
I have attached a sample database (access 2002-2003 format).
I am sure the answer is staring me in the face but I have now spent hours trying to resolve!!
Help very much appreciated.
Phil.
Update: One difference I can see is that on the query 'qryENTRY_COMPUTERS' where i have added tblSupplierProducts & tblSupplier the join properties are in reverse i.e. Left Table Name = tblSupplierProducts Rigth Table Name = tblComputers Left Column Name = ProductID Right Column Name = ProductID ????
I can't edit this.......................
i cant seem to get this to work.
any help would be greatly Appreciated

thanks in advance
I am trying to create a form that has an unbound text box which row source is a field in a table. I have created a subform that gets the records from another table.
Both tables are linked in a one to many relationship. When a user selects a record in the cmbo box i want the table to show only those records which are related.
This obviously didnt happen. So i changed the subform instead of a table as its source but a query, then in the criteria of a query just set it to look at the cmbo on the form. After the cmbo was updated i got the subform to requery.
This worked fine, but i was unable to make any changes or updates but with no particular error.
When inserting a subform using the wizard i do remember coming across a section of a wizard that asks me if i would like to tie in the subform with something on the form. However this part of the wizard just doesnt show. Maybe i was using a different version of access for this wizard?? i am currently using Access XP.
Am i really going MAD!!?
I'm trying to mess with a combo box where when one user selects a value a form opens up. This is the code I'm typing in but I keep getting a syntax error
DoCmd.OpenForm(Phone,[View As AcFormView=acNormal],[DataMode As AcFormOpenDataMode=acFormAdd],[WindowMode As AcWindowMode = acWindowNormal],[OpenArgs])
Hi,
Trying to make the selection in a combo box on frm1 be the filter on frm2.
I found this example by searching the form, but it's not working for me
Option Compare Database
Private Sub Command3_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command3_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "form_lastnametotal_exludeholidayform"
stLinkCriteria = "[Employee_Name]=" & Me!cboMyCombo
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit_Command3_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Command3_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Command3_Click
End Sub
I get an 'the openform action was canceled' error?
Any ideas?
The second form is based on a query
Thanks
Hello once again. I have been working on a small database that records all IT records (Desk Info / Software / License Info / Hardware etc...) Somebody out there might even find it useful!! Will post to DB forum when working :)
Where to begin. I thought it would be a good idea to normalize a little more........(still not 100% but an improvement). I seperated Software/License information. I now have tblSoftware & a tblLicenseDetails.
Basically the clux of it all centers around a form 'frmDeskSetup'. You can search via three methods (Desk ID / User ID or Computer ID). I would like to amend the Installed Software Form (last form on frmDeskSetup) to include the License Information.
I have also tried to create a query linking tblComputerSoftware tblSoftware + tblLicenseDetails. My idea was to create a form that would allow users to Add Software/ Add a License for that Software and then allocate the licensed software to a computer all from one form. The query run OK but would not allow data entry via the form!!
Sorry for the length of this post. I have attached a stripped DB for forum in Acess 2003 format.
Thanks in advance,
Phil.
IIf([Count: ERName]>=5,"Yes","No")
What is wrong with this line? I am entering it in the following query:
ERName Group By
Department Group By
Date of Call-In Group By
Type of Call-In Group By
Count:ERName Count
The other thing I tried is just doing another query based on the above query and doing a totals (sum) line on Count:ERName. That doesn't work, it prompts me for count (as if that is a parameter I want to choose.
Any ideas? Sorry to be a pain. Thanks!

Hello,
I am still learning access- I am hopeful someone does not mind helping me...no matter how easy or simple this may be. I will do my best to describe what I am trying to do.
I am creating a system admin database- starting from scratch and am willing to start over.
I would like to create 2 forms that work directly with the appropriate tables.
Table 1 (host/IP):
Hostname
IP address
User - uses a drop down already created
System - uses a drop down already created
Table 2 (system updates):
Action- uses a drop down including install, remove, etc...
Software- uses a drop down to select from including virus, system updates
Date updated
Comments
Form 1:
-new record button (to enter new hostname record and IP associated)
-find button
-save button
-Exit (database button)
-Delete Record button)
-hostname
-IP address
-user (drop down to change user if necessary)
-System (drop down to select laptop, workstation, etc.)
-"Add/update patch" button (which I would like to link to form 2 showing
only the records for the selected host/IP on form 1)
- "view all updates for this system" button (within last week or month)
Form 2:
- Clear or undo button (which will undo any field entered by mistake on this
form)
- Save button
- Exit (to main form) button
- Hostname field which matches what is on form 1
- user field which also matches what is on form 1
- Next, there are four separate lines (as seen below)- each with the
appropriate links to table 2. The purpose of the four lines is if the admin has
four separate updates to be entered, they can do it on one page, click
save and each separate will be saved and accociated with that hostname,
IP.
1. Action - Software - Date Updated - Comments
2. Action - Software - Date Updated - Comments
3. Action - Software - Date Updated - Comments
4. Action - Software - Date Updated - Comments
- System Admin field - this is to show who did the updates for the selected
hostname/IP
Now, I seem to be okay with form #1 (except the "view all updates..." button)
Form #2 is giving me a fit. I seem to be having problems populating all the hostname records that have been entered. Also, the four lines are not working independently.
Is it possible to have the date update field automatically update when action or software is updated/selected.
Perhaps I have the second form set up wrong due to the relationships or primary keys or I just did not configure the form correctly.
Sorry for the long message- I hope someone can help straighten me and/or this database out.
Thanks in advance,
