I'm creating a database that keeps a track of questions and scores.
The questions in the database need to be dynamic and are changed frequently.
I have a scorecard table which keeps a record of scores and the applicable question at the time the record was saved. I need to do this because in 6 months time we may want to provide feedback. As the question may have changed we need to be able to refer back to what the question was.
I want the question field in my scorecard table to populate with the value in my question table.
I have tried a number of things including setting the question field in the scorecard table to a lookup based on the following query:
SELECT tblQ1.Q1 FROM tblQ1;
This works however only as a list or combo box. I don't want the user to have to select the question. I want it to auto populate, is this possible?
the table 2 is the source of a form that will let the user change the numbers. table 1 should change Date1 and Date2 Fields based on the two fields (3months) and (6months) if i want to make a lookup wizard it should be changed manually and if i make a calculated field i can't find other tables in the expression builder
VBA Code to go in the on double_click event of a name field in a Subform bound to a table. The subform is just a copy of a data table and within the subform view, When the field "employee name" which contains e.g. John is double clicked, I would like access to Lookup and get John's email in the employee table under field "Email" and launch outlook application and insert it into the To field.
I assume hyperlinking the field can also achieve this similar to what excel does but I am fast learning that what is standard functionality in excel is a whole another story in Access..
I have two fields the have differing dates in them. I need an action query to make the date in one field the same as in the other. I have thousands of records to do this to. Is there a way via an action query (update?) to do this or does it have to be an SQL statement query?
In Access 2013, in a table named DOCSDETAIL or form, I want the UTENTE (meaning user) field (Currency type €) automatically receives the same amount of PVP field (Currency type €) but can be modified as needed.
Example: Registration of documents in which the amount paid by the USER has two possibilities;
1. DifferS from PVP (Public Sale Price) 2. Equal the PVP
Looks like it might be used
= "Update your_table set your_field_new = your_field_old"
= "Update DOCSDETALHE set UTENTE = PVP"
But do not know where to put and if the syntax is correct!
I'm currently working with a form, which is in datasheet view. I have many rows which are combo boxes (yes/no), and the name is rather long. So each line (each row) spreads on to 2-3 pages to the right.What I would like to do is make the namebar, on top of every column, a little bit higher, so the name would be split into two lines, or three. Allowing me to make the width allot smaller.Here is an example of my problem:http://213.213.137.96/~terminal/columns.jpgSo my question is, can I change the height of the column name? Or is there some trick I can use?regardsFrímann Kjerúlf
To make it simple, I have a list of contact names and their email. I want to have a form with no control source and have 2 simple drop down boxes for their Name and their Email. What I would like to happen is the user choose a name from the drop down in field 1 and then the field below auto-populate their email in field 2. I understand I can use conditional IF/THEN and list out each email, but the contact list is ever changing, so I want to first drop down to link to the TblContacts, have the user pick the name from the list and then have the 2nd field autopopulate from that same TblContacts with their email respective to the Name entered in field 1. My form has two field [Traveler] and [Email]...The tblContacts two fields are [Name] and [Email]
Is it possible to send e-mails to all of your e-mail addresses in one single e-mail?
Right now I am able to open up an individual e-mails for each of my stored e-mailo adresses but it would be so much better (and more user friendly) if I could just have one e-mail with all addresses in the To: field.
i have a table called students with the following field:
Name Surname Address Class
I want to create another field in the table called summary where i can create a default for that field to place the [Name] & [Surname] & [address] & [Class].I have now done it in expression prob being it wont let me add a number field or lookup field.
Can I make the default value of a field be something in another field in another table. I tried to enter into the default value the following but, it does not find the field.
[tablename].[fieldname] I also tried it [fieldname].[tablename].
I have an Email field on a form. Is it possible to send an email by clicking on the email address? Now, I only have a vague familiarity with VBA as I've taken an Access Intermediate class. We were just introduced to it at the end of the class, so you may have to walk me through it like a 6 year old. I went to a site that said a macro was needed in either the After Update, After Delete, or After Insert. With that said, I know where to go, but I don't know exactly how to write the code. I have outlook set up on my computer and am operating Windows 8.1 and Access 360.
I have a button setup to email a Proposal Report to specific people. Works fine. I now need the ability to email the Proposal Report (without an addendum) OR email the Proposal Report with an addendum. There are additional fields on the report with an addendum. I have tried the on format event of the Proposal Report to make the addendum fields invisible using this if statement:
Code: if Forms![CurrentJobs]![Addendums].Form![AddendumNum] Is Null Then Me.AddendumNum.Visible = False Me.Label324.Visible = False Me.Label325.Visible = False Me.AddendumDrawings.Visible = False Me.AddendumDrawingsDate.Visible = False Me.Label326.Visible = False Me.AddendumFloors.Visible = False Me.Label327.Visible = False End If
But I keep getting an "object required" error. how I can run the Proposal Report with or without addendum information depending on the job?
I have a query in my database, and I have recently added new possible entries for area. My report tells me how many male chickens vs. how many female chickens I have. Now with the new entries for area, I want my breakdown to EXCLUDE any chickens that live in a specific area.
For instance:
Pen A has 15 males & 15 females. Pen B has 12 Males & 13 Females. Pen C has 50 males & 50 females.
Pen C is the recent addition...
Right now my report shows: 77 Males & 78 Females...
I WANT it to EXCLUDE Pen C, so it would report: 27 Males & 28 Females.
Can anyone tell me how best to do this? I figured I would add a custom field to the query that the criteria for is "Pen = C" and then on my report I would change the data source from: =Count([Chicken Query]![Male] --- and make it =Count([Chicken Query]![Male] - Count([Pen="C"]) --- or something like that.
Can anyone help me? And if so could you help with the proper code for the second part that I am adding new? I know the Count([Pen="C"]) isn't right, but until I know exactly how to add a custom field to the current query, with the critieria of Pen="C", I don't know how to write the -Count([NewField]) code, if that would even work.
I have a form with a subform. I would like to make a field on the subform not visible if a field on the primary field is null. Can anyone help? Thanks.
i have probleb with the comboboxes if i change cobobox value, then comes a error :to make changes to this field, first save the record the combobox code is

I am doing a project for school. I would like to make the default value in one field (available or rented) to be "rented" if the value in a field in another table is null. Is there an "easy" way to do this?
I have downloaded a contact template from the internet ready to go. There are few things I need to get rid off and make changes to.
One of the most improtant thing is making one of the field unique. For some reason, i can get to the design view. I open navigation panel and right click on the table, there is no such thing call design view on the menu.
If I have a Form that is used to populate a Table can I make one field entry dependent upon another?
For example, if I have a field for Discipline (with values such as Mechanical, Electrical, Piping) and another field for Equipment Type (with values such as Motor, Gearbox, etc) can I set up the Form so that when I select Electrical for the Discipline, only electrical items (such as Motor) are available to select for the Equipment Type field?
Using the table below as an example, if I select Electrical for the Discipline field in my Form, when I go to select a value for the Equipment Type field the drop down shows only Motor and Fan?
Discipline Equipment Type Electrical Motor Electrical Fan Mechanical Gearbox Mechanical Pump Piping DN 150 Pipe
Or, better still, can I set it up so that if I select Motor for the Equipment Type field, the Discipline field will automatically be populated with Electrical?
