Hi Everyone
I have been searching EVERYWHERE, but was unable to locate even the correct wording of my problem, so I decided to see if there is anyone here solve this riddle for me:
I have a simple table with 2 fields
ie :
NAME NUMBER
George 5
John 3
etc...
I have the need to make a report that makes stickers and make 5 stickers with the name George on it and 3 with the name John etc...
I cant even think of a query that would produce 5 rows of George followed by 3 Johns (;})..
The actual problem is more complex than this ( many times ) but this is what is holding me back atm.
Thanks in advance people, and I would like to say that I have learned VERY VERY MUCH from this site alone , and within a month from starting to learn Access for the first time, I have succesfully made a database that is working just fine for invoices and keeping track of inventory....
I have a form where we fill in information for supply of equipment to employees.
Each item must be signed for on a printed report.
I am encountering problems trying to create enough rows in my report detail for each signature of the items supplied.
For example, on the form I will select the "equipment" - 4 hats supplied and 3 boots. On the report I want the equipment set as the group and the detail to be a number or rows which equals the number of selected items. therefore under the Hats group heading I want 4 blank rows which are made up of 3 text boxes - Print Name, Signature & Date and another group heading for boots but with 3 lines.
I have a form where we fill in information for supply of PPE to employees.
Each item must be signed for on a printed report.
I am encountering problems trying to create enough rows for my report detail for each signature of the number of items supplied.

The Query gives the results below: (Item name is linked to a PPE table containing Item ID, Item Name, Cost etc..)
IssueIDDateProvidedItem_Name AmountIssued 0001 01/11/2013 Gloves (Orange) 10 0001 01/11/2013 Hard Hats (Black) 2 0002 02/11/2013 Hi Viz (Large) 5
The report I aim to generate from this should look as attached ...
The query/report is set up as a parameter report so I will enter the issueID such as 0001 and only those items will appear on the report to print and sign.
I'm trying to get the maximum number in a table field to increase it by one depending on the member that is selected in a drop down in a field.
I have three tables: members, programs and times. Each member can have N programs and each program can be broadcast N times.
Each member has a three digit code, like XXX. Each program has the three digit code of the member + three numbers that are supposed to auto increment. That is, the first program of member X with the member code XXX is called XXX001.
What I'm trying to do is that when a new program is filled in and I select the member, then the program code should update automatically, adding one to the latest program by that member.
That is, if the last program by member X that was inserted in the database is XXX010, then if a new program is inserted it should automatically be XXX011, even though programs by other members have been added in between.
This is the code I use now, for the AfterUpdate when selecting the member in a dropdown in the form. But although I've played around a bit, I just get error messages...
Private Sub medlemsruta_AfterUpdate() Dim medlemskod medlemskod = Me![medlemsruta].Column(2)
Dim strMax As String
strMax = DMax("programs_kod", "table_programs", "Left$(programs_kod, 3) = medlemskod") Me!program_kod = Left$(strMax, 3) & Format$(Val(Right$(strMax, 3)) + 1, "000") End Sub
Medlemsruta is a dropdown where one selects the member from the members table, where the three digit code is in the third column (Column(2)).
I'm trying to use DMax to get the maximum number for the particular member and after that adding 1 to that for the new program code.
I have an Access2007/SQL Server 2012 system with 20 users for an insurance company. The company does most of its business via a network of vehicle dealers around the country. If someone comes in to buy a motorcycle, boat, or recreational vehicle at a dealership they need insurance to take it home, and our dealers send the quotes to us.
The dealers, in turn, receive payment from us each month for their efforts. Some are paid a % commission on the premium, some are paid for each quote they send regardless of whether the policy actually sells or not, and some are paid a set amount per sold policy. (Yes, that is relevant information!)
We already have reports that tally the amounts due each dealer based on their payment scheme, but last month our bookkeeper had to write about 650 checks manually because the check writing is not automated. She'd look at the report, and then enter name, address, and amount (in digits and words) into Quick Books and print the checks from there, a horribly tedious process. I've been asked to print the checks from Access. Basically one click would print all 650 checks.
I've opted to use a Make Table query to move the commissioned dealers amounts to a single location, and then to run two append queries to add the records from those paid per quote and those paid per policy. At the end of the day, one table contains all the information necessary to print the checks...except one.
The check number.
I need a way to sequentially number each record in the new table with a user generated starting point, the first check number.
By the way, the check blanks are on standard letter sized paper, three to a page, with tear-off perforations to separate them, in case that information has any relevance.
I think the best way to accomplish this is from the report itself. I've created a blank field on each record for the check number, and what seems most logical is that the sequential number is generated on print and written back to the table, rather than just generating all the numbers at once. That way, should print ever be interrupted, it will be easy to take up where we left off.
I want to edit a specific textbox depending on a number which is dependent on a number of things and varies each time the form is run.For example, if the number is 0 I want to edit tb0.value. If it's 1 I want to edit tb1.value etc. I have specifically labelled my text boxes in this way.I thought something like this would work
textBoxName = "tb" & number textBoxName.value = "this is the value I want to enter".
However, this does not work and it produces an error saying 'Invalid Qualifier'.
I am trying to create a report that has a header ( all ok ) then could have 1 or 15 detail lines ( all ok ) which contain cost for each line
then I have a footer with the subtotals of the costs and also bank details then I have footnotes
What I need the report to do is keep the subtotals, bank details and the footer notes at the bottom of the page all the time weather I have one detail line or 15 detail lines
What is happening at this time is the footer information is moving up or down depending on the number of lines I have.
I have made a query from different tables; however, my query is returning about 5 rows for each person because some fields in the query return more than 1 row.
I need to do a count of the total number of rows in a table or query. Say I have a table with 7 records, I want to be able to get total number of rows instead of the sum of the row and save it to some other table.
I have an address database where people have been allowed to type in any characters they want in place of just leaving a missing field blank. For instance the Zip code was not a required field (don't as me why because I don't know. It just wasn't) so over the years when the person entering the data didn't know what the zip code was they would put a ?, a 0, a 000 or a period or what ever else they could think of at the time.
I would like to add a filter in my query where I could eliminate any thing with less then a certain amount of characters.
I thought something like this would do the trick
Zip: IIf(Len([V_ZIP]<5),[V_ZIP],"0")
But I am getting a data type mismatch in criteria expression. Any ideas of what I am doing wrong?
I need to write a code that checks if every 6 lines in a table contains a string. If it contains the string, then carry on looping, but if it does not, it will delete the current line and the previous 6 lines before it. The program should then continue looping through the entire table.
For example,
Code: Apple a b c d e Apple f g h i j Apple l m n o p q Apple . . .
I need to find the string "apple" in every 6 lines. So, that means that the first 2 Apples are fine, but for the third one needs to be deleted as it contains 7 lines instead of 6.
I am looking for a way to limit the number of rows that are added to the subform of a main form. Is there anyway that the allowable number of rows be defined using a field on the main form.
I wrote a query to return the TOP 32 items for a key. Works fine:-
SELECT TOP 32 [my Disks Coefficients sub].[thier Disk ID] FROM [my Disks Coefficients] AS [my Disks Coefficients sub] WHERE [my Disks Coefficients sub].[my Disk ID]=1 GROUP BY [my Disks Coefficients sub].[thier Disk ID], [my Disks Coefficients sub].coefficient ORDER BY [my Disks Coefficients sub].coefficient;
I then plugged this into a query in the WHERE clause using In (Select Top .....;); [changing the =1 condition to pick up the correct id from the emcompassing query]:-
SELECT [my Disks Coefficients].[my Disk ID], [my Disks Coefficients].[thier Disk ID], [my Disks Coefficients].coefficient FROM [my Disks Coefficients] WHERE [my Disks Coefficients].[thier Disk ID] In (SELECT TOP 32 [my Disks Coefficients sub].[thier Disk ID] FROM [my Disks Coefficients] AS [my Disks Coefficients sub] WHERE [my Disks Coefficients sub].[my Disk ID]=[my Disks Coefficients].[my Disk ID] GROUP BY [my Disks Coefficients sub].[thier Disk ID], [my Disks Coefficients sub].coefficient ORDER BY [my Disks Coefficients sub].coefficient;);
This runs fine but the the number of items returned is for each key is less than if I run the Top query by itself for each key seperately? So when I run it stand-alone for ID 1 I get 127 rows (there are many equal coefficients); when I run it as a sub-query I get only 121 rows for ID 1!
The above table suits me well for data entry.For analysis reasons, I want it to have another table or query or something (let's call it "Teacher Info") that looks like this:
Is there any way that I could do this? I have been struggling with this for a while.Just so you know how this data is connected - At the moment, I have a form where I put in new Teacher information. I have a subform attached to that, where I put the student names and numbers. This way, the students are linked with their student #s, and each of them are linked to a teacher. Unfortunately, the table ("New Teacher Registration") that this creates looks like this:
id....Teacher Name 62...... Alice (+ tab).........A.........432 ...................B.........674 ...................C.........875 18.......Katie (+ tab).........D.........934 ...................E.........345 4........Dan (+ tab).........F.........134 ...................G.........734
I created the "Student Info" table (above) from this to work with data entry (drop-downs and such). Now I'd like to create a "Teacher Info" table (above) for analysis.
I am trying to count rows in the result of one of the queries and I am having a bit of trouble getting it going.
The current code - this is executed as on-click event when clicked on List Box feed with query below.
What I want to add is simple if that when number of rows produced by the querry is 1 it will enable a picture item in the different part of the form, however it does not want to count the rows for me.
Code: Private Sub search_items_Click() Me.OBSFullFilledOrdersHolder.Enabled = True mysql = "SELECT orders.[order id] , STUDENTS.[first name]& ' ' & students.[surname] AS Name, students.[contact name] AS ContactName , ORDERS.[Online Bookshelf order] AS OBS , STUDENTS.[Delivery Address 1], STUDENTS.[Delivery Address 2], STUDENTS.[Delivery Address 3], STUDENTS.[Delivery Address 4]"
[Code] ....
The query itself works when tested but when used in code with DCount function will return error: Run-Time 2471 the expression you entered as query parameter prouced this error
I have an access DB.I have an XLSM Data Sheet.In the XLSM I have A few Rows with Fields.In the Fields I have a few matching fields as in the Access DB.I also have a few extra fields that i want to add to the Access DB
I want the new fields of the ADB to Populate from the XMLS in the proper rows based on the ID number in the ADB.
Not sure if what I want to do is possible, or at least possible the way things are set up.
I have a massive table - c. 6 million rows. It contains data along these lines:
Plan#, Item, Price, Description, Colour, Value, Location, etc.
The primary key would be Plan# + Item. Each Plan# has approximately 1,000 Items, and there is only 1 Item per Plan#. There are only a limited number of Items (c. 1500) and all or only some Items might be assigned to the Plan#. All items under each unique ID# belong together, sort of in a set. So this huge table has approx. 6,000 unique sets (based on Plan#).
To add to the confusion, Item A under Plan#1 may have different information (Price, Description, Colour, etc.) from Item A under Plan#2. I know this isn't a great way to set up data but this is what I have to work with.
Over the years it's possible that the exact same combination of Items with identical values might have been set up for multiple Plan#s. What I need to do is find any Plan#s which have the exact same combination of Item, Price, Description, etc. So if Plan#R has 200 rows and Plan#S has 201 rows, it automatically doesn't match. If Plan#R has 200 rows and so does Plan#T, all information in each record must match between the two Plan#s (with the exception obviously of Plan#).
I don't think this is possible, and if it is I am sure it's not going to be easy. So far the best I can do is to come up with finding duplicates on Item, Price, Description, etc. but that's only one record at a time and doesn't tell me if the two Plan#s match.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.
I am making a Invoice DB. I have made a combo for Suppliers which takes data from SuppliersTable and data is recorded in InvoiceTable. I have another Combo for Services which takes data from SuppliersTable and records up in InvoiceTable. And I have another field (PaymentPeriod) dependent on ServiceCombo
I want to make Services Combo dependent on Supliers.
How can I do that?
Combo 1 = SuppliersCombo SuppliersTABLE: suppliers data origin Field: SupplierMaster InvoiceTable: supplier data destination Field: Supplier
Combo 2= ServiceCombo dependent on Suppliers Combo SuppliersTABLE: suppliers data origin Field: ServiceMaster InvoiceTable: service data destination Field: Service
Form Field: PaymentPeriod dependent on ServiceCombo SuppliersTABLE: suppliers data origin Field: PaymentPeriodMaster InvoiceTable: paymentperiod data destination Field: paymentperiod
How can I do these dependent?
I hope I explainned myself clearly, I am access first timer.
On my form I have a number of buttons named A1 to A6. I want to be able to click on a button and bring up a report that thows all records A6 if that is the button I have pressed or A1 if that is the button I have pressed. I know I could make each query individually, each one looking for the appropriate data, but I was hoping I could make one query and have the criteria change automatically depending on the button that I press.
Is this possible or am I asking a little to much of Access!
I would like my form field to populate based on what the user selects from 2 combo boxes I have. I have a table set up with Region, Position, and Name. I would like when the user selects for example Eastern for the region and President for the position that John Smith would auto populate in the form field. Is this possible and if so, how can I get this to work?
Right, my first access database is coming along well, with the help of some people on here, but I have another question. The database is designed to track jobs in our small workshop.
We have a 'price matrix', that has our regular customers on the left, the material type long the top ( mild steel, brass, etc), and a cost in each area for each of four types of standard job, so i suppose its a sort of a 'cube' rather than a matrix, except not all customers and materials have an agreed price for each of the standard jobs (there are only four of them, a maximum of 3 per customer)
Now, my database revolves around a 'main' table, with a unique order ID, customer name (from lookup table ), and other details. Initially, I have created another 'cost matrix' table, with a primary key, customer ID (based on the same lookup table), material type and job type (both lookups), and price fields. What I want to do is that my guys can select material and job type, and the cost will be recorded somewhere. Now, I understand that you shouldn't have the same data twice anywhere in the database, so I figured of I am recording the material and job type in question on the main table, and given the customer ID is recorded as well, I should be able to reference this to my cost matrix table and then be able to populate a field on the main form, query against it on reports that sort of thing. However, there is a field on my main table for cost adjustments ( say we work 24 / 7 on a rush job), which is manually entered on a job by job basis, so should I record the total job cost in my main table, or always calculate it when needed using a unit cost + adjustment type of calculation?
Also, how do I populate the field on the main form that the cost should be 'x' from the'cost matrix' table, given the values of the customer, material type and job type fileds?
I am searching the net for a response to my problem but no result; I have 1 BD access (Facture) in witch there is 2 tables (Entete_Facture and Detail_Facture) with a relation in Field (Numero_Fac).
It is very easy to use "INNER JOIN" to do a Query (Facture_with_date) fusionning the 2 tables, But I want to add to this query another column : " SUM(Qte_Article) GROUP BY Code_Article " as below:
Is there a way to have a different message box pop up depending on a "Yes" or "No" response? I have a message response that pops up now, but does so no matter what the response is.
I'm have a query with some fields but only one record. The values in the record depends on comboboxes in a form.
What the query is doing, is that is calculating percentage. So the problem is if you go from zero to something bigger than zero, then this this gives you an infinite value of percentage. I solved that by if it is a zero, then it's changed to null. Then the percentage will be zero.
What I want, or wonder, is if the value is zero, is it possible to to have a textbox or something "lightened up" in a form? What I mean is that if you do your choices in the comboboxes and this gives you a "bad zero" in the query then a text pops up and tells you that "the values are a little bit wrong" or something like that=)
More "shortly" said, can a texts visibility in a form depend on the value in a query?
