Populate Data After Creating Many To Many Relationship
Apr 17, 2014
I have about 600,000 records in an excel sheet and tried using the table analyzer but I run out of memory. Instead i have broken up my giant table into a few other tables with their own primary keys and have populated from a maketable query. I related the tables together in a 1 to many and many to many table and one of the subforms is working great. The problem i am having now is with the many to many table (WorkedJunctionTbl). I don't want to have to manually input thousands of lines of data, so is there a way i can populate the data from the original data correctly using the new autonumber primary keys?I can't seem to get an append query to work correctly.
I've been able to navigate a lot on my own, but there is one issue I cannot seem to resolve. I have 1 form and 1 table. I have the form set up so that you can enter data, and then press a button, and it will "save" and refresh the form for a new entry. However, I want to be able to pull that entry back up in the form, and fill out additional fields later on.The form is set to data entry = yes because I do want the form to open up as brand new each time.
To sum up my question. I want a text box and search button at the top of my form. When you type an ID number in the text box, and then press search, I want access to populate my form with the information in my data table associated with that ID number.
If I type in the number 1234 and hit search. I want my form to autopopulate with the data in the row for ID number 1234 (all the fields I have already populated). So by searching 1234, the name, phone, background info, etc that is populated in the row will appear.
I have a table with all the job information for each of our jobs. I want to create another table with a job notes field that is linked to the job info table above. My main goal is to be able to make a query or report for the job notes on all our jobs on a specific date.
Q1. Is there a way to link the job info field with the job notes field where the job # and job name information will automatically populate into the query?
Q2. How do I build a relationship between the job info field and the job notes field. I tried to link them, but when I do the query the job # and job name fields aren't being populated, it only shows a single blank row for the whole query.
I have a database assignment where I need to link some tables. One is a table with a composite primary key and the other is a table with a regular primary key. The composite key is already linked in a one-to-many relationship with the first of its two fields; the problem is the second field also needs to be in its own one-to-many relationship with a different table. Access keeps creating a one-to-one relationship. I need it to be a one-to-many relationship.why this might be happening?
I have started a new project where I have tables of people, organization, and roles, as well as one that is supposed to contain the relationships among them. In all four tables there is an AutoNumber ID field as the primary key. The fourth table, the relationship table, has as foreign keys, the primary keys from the first three.
I have created a form with a combo box for each of the three main tables. The intent is for the user to select a person, an organization, and a role, and then click on a button control that will create the relationship in the relationship table. What I am trying to do in the code is, using an AfterUpdate event procedure for each of the combo boxes, open the appropriate table as a recordset, find the selected record, and set a form-local variable to the value of the ID field for that record. So far, I can't get past the first combo box. Here is the code I have written, including both the form variable declarations and the AfterUpdate code:
Option Compare Database Dim personID As Integer Dim orgID As Integer Dim roleID As Integer Dim rsPerson As Recordset Dim rsOrg As Recordset Dim rsRole As Recordset Dim rsRel As Recordset
[code]...
The error message I get is Compile error: Object required, with the personID reference in the last statement highlighted. (qryPerson is a query based on tblPeople that combines first and last names into LNFN.)
Hi, I’m having a problem creating a form for easy data entry. Let me give you a little background. I have a database for a tutor program, students request a tutor for a class, and then I fill out a follow up report to find out if they are being tutored or changed their minds. Next I enter the contact information indicating the date and time of their tutoring session.
Students can be tutored in more than one class but they can only have one tutor for each class.
I have a form where I enter the tutor request info and sub forms for their classes, follow ups, and sessions. Ideally I would also like a form just to enter the session info. I want a combo box to select the tutor and then a sub form to select the tutee with a combo box which will auto fill the Subject, and Course fields, and field to enter the date and contact hrs.
I think the problem is with my relationships. I’m just kind of stuck. I think I need to create a form based on a query but I haven't done that before. Any help would be appreciated. Attached is a screen shot of my relationships and of my current form for your reference.
Hi, I am new here and need some help with MS Access97. I am looking for a more convenient way to join tables together. The usual way that I know is to drag the field(s) in one table and drop it in the other table (within the relationship window).
Is there any other way that I can do the same without drag and drop (keyboard instead of mouse)? This is real problem to me when I need to do some modification and have lots of tables scatter across few pages and the vertical scroll of the Relationship window is not working properly with drag & drop technique.
I have a relationship between two tables; the parent table is "Client Information" with a primary key of "Client_ID", the child table is "Event Information" and the foreign key is "Client_ID".
I know that within the Event Information table I can select which Client_ID to use as the link. I want to have that done within a form, however. I have a form for Client Information with a subform for Event Information. If I go into the table and manually set the Client_ID then everything displays fine.
How can I set the Client_ID in the subform to automatically match the Client_ID in the main form? I can only assume that these solutions require the parent/child relationship to already have been established.
I have a Client database table in Access. I now need to add a simple order table (related) to the client table. I have a client ID field set to autonumber in the client table. As I start to create the orders table I'm not sure how to link the two so that I'm not entering data twice and have assurance that they are tied together.
Each each record in table1 has a unique four character (alpha-numeric) code to identify it. The first two numbers of this code represent the group it is in. (Ie. 15AB and 1502 are both grouped together) The second table stores values that apply to the entire group. I need to create a relationship between these two tables based on the first two characters in the ID field.
Things I've tried: * Making a calculated field with left$() formula - Access doesn't allow relationships on calculated fields * Create a new field for just the first two characters and create a data macro for after update and after insert to update that field with the expression - cannot edit the field the user is on
I've been tasked with creating an Access database..We have a main table that includes information found on every lease, however there are 3 leases types. Each which lead to another table or two. Basically, I want to create a form that allows me to link the main table with the corresponding variable tables.
I have a form that when initially displayed shows all client records in my database with the ability to add new ones through a "Add New" command button. I have another command button called "Search" that displays a second form containing a dozen or so fields to search and filter down on.
When the Search button is pressed, I display search form and enter data in some of the fields for searching. I then click ok and the main form should now display a subset of the records based on the data I entered on the search form.
My dilemma is that the WhereCondition of the docmd.OpenForm doesn't work. The doccmd works to open the form when I don't include the WhereCondition, but the moment I put the WhereCondition in, I get an unknown runtime error (3000).
Here's the code. I've stripped out most of the search fields to target just the one until I can get it working, then I'll add the others back in.
Private Sub cmdSearch_Click() Dim varWhere As Variant ' Initialize the search string to Null varWhere = Null If Not IsNothing(Me.srchLastName) Then varWhere = "([p_last_nam] LIKE '" & Me.srchLastName & "*')"
I want to create a text box within a form that automatically populates a contact number based on a selection from a combo box, also in the same form.
For example, I have a Bidders Table (tblTenders), this form includes information regarding the Tendor like the company name and a main contact within that company and a phone number for that contact.
I've created a separate table for all the contacts called tblContacts. This table holds all the contact information for each contact. I have a simple form called frmTenders that asks the user to input the Customer (which is the company who are bidding) and the Main Contact, which is a combo box to select the main contact from tblContacts. Below that combo box is a text box called 'Contact Number' - I want this box to display the contact number for the main contact automatically when a main contact is selected from the combo box.
The contact number text box isn't storing that information in any tables etc. It's just for viewing purposes when we need to make a call to that specific tender.
The idea is that ALL ACCOUNTS have the information in table 1, and specific SETS of accounts have the ADDITIONAL information in each supplemental table (at the same group level). A one-to-many relationship would not be correct here, and I've tried to use a 1-to-1 relationship.
PROBLEM: When I make a new item in tblAccounts or (for example) tblLoanAccountsSupplemental, I want it to autocreate the KEY and make it the same for both tables.
My intuition may be wrong with the 1-to-1 relationship. What should I do? :(
I have created a many-to-many relationship but am now having trouble figuring out how to add new data.
I have a table PEOPLE: ID First Name Last Name 1 Participant A 2 Participant B 3 Participant C
And I have a table BEHAVIORS: ID Behavior 1 Yelling 2 Grabbing 3 Smearing feces
And I linked these together in a many-to-many relationship in a table PEOPLE_BEHAVIORS: ID Participant Behavior 1 A Yelling 2 B Yelling 3 C Yelling 4 A Grabbing 5 B Grabbing 6 A Smearing feces 7 C Smearing feces
All that's good to go. But now I need a table so I can count how often these behaviors occur every day. I need to link PEOPLE_BEHAVIORS to a new data table that will count how often I see the behaviors linked to the people every day. So my table should look like:
ID Participant Behavior Date Frequency
But I should only document the frequency of the behaviors linked to that participant (so for Participant A, I should have a space for yelling, grabbing, and smearing feces whereas for Participant B, I,d only have a space for yelling and grabbing). Is it possible to create a table that will basically partially create records for me? So if I open the table to add data today, I'd see the following and fill in the frequency blanks?
ID Participant Behavior Date Frequency 1 A Yelling 6/16/14 2 B Yelling 6/16/14 3 C Yelling 6/16/14 4 A Grabbing 6/16/14 5 B Grabbing 6/16/14 6 A Smearing feces 6/16/14 7 C Smearing feces 6/16/14
Clients may include those who needed advocacy services. Clients table counts by every visits, not by per person.
However, with advocacy, I need a mean of tracking actual person.
Right now, I have one to many relationship from client.clientid to advocacy.clientid, but seems to not be the right solution as I would get duplicate advocacy records when there should be only one advocacy record per person with many client records (as in visits).
The duplicates is created whenver a name is chosen in the combo box in the Advocacy form, to which a new AdvocacyID is assigned to the same person. It shouldn't have done that.
What I can do to ensure that there is only one unique Advocacy record that can be referenced by several Client records?
I created two tables, but i don't know what kind of relationship i should create.
In the first table, i would like to put all different tests (medical tests, such as EMG test, and so on), in the second table, i want to add the settingup for each test, say, recording site, stimulating site et.al, then i want to use one form to populate data into these two tables, what should i do?
I am trying to create a 2-table database where we can enter our survey data. I want them to be linked by "head"# so that the "Temp" "Date" "island" and "site" are autofilled into the "time dep"table from the data I entered in the first "perm"table.
I would also like if the lookups were filtered so that, for example, when I choose "Cat Island" my only two options are "fishbowl" and "Cuda" then from there depending on which of those I choose, The "head"# can be chosen from a dropdown as well. There are about 22 coral-heads per site, and two sites per island. I don't want to have a giant dropdown of 80+"head"#s, but at the same time, if we are typing them in, it increases chance of error. limiting the options of head number to be site specific would be ideal.
I feel like I may be going about this all wrong, and need a form? But I cannot figure out how to make the form data fill the datasheets that I have created.
I want a Text Box Query on my form to display the Status, Workshop, Time, Enrolled and Limit. The problem is these values come from two different tables and the Enrolled value comes from a single field that contains the different workshops.
What I mean is: In Table[Attendees] a row contains a customer's Number, First Name, Last Name, Workshop and Phone Number. The workshops vary for each customer so one row on the table could have John Doe attending Cover Letter Writing and the next row could have John Smith attending Resume Writing. What I want is to be able to count the different workshops within the Field[Workshop] and total them and then display the total in a Text Box Query. I have a Text Box Query set up displaying Status, Workshop, Time and Limit as these values all come from Table[Workshops].
So basically I need to Query to also display a result that is the Total for each workshop from Table[Attendees] and display the total for each workshop in a Query with data from Table[Workshops].
Here is a link to an Example Database [URL] ....
I'm trying to avoid putting things on different reports and the like because the people using this are basically computer illiterate and if they have to click a button (no matter how well labeled) they won't do it and the information might as well not exist.
And if there's a better way to do it, I'm all ears. The only thing is, I have to update these workshops month by month. Since they are dynamic, I want to avoid creating separate tables for each workshop.
First of all, I want to say Thank you to everyone in this forum I have been reading just about every question in each Topic and I have pick up a lot more than I tough I knew. [Thank you]! I not sure how to ask this question or better yet write it. Here is my Situation I work for the NAVY as an Enlisted Personnel station in (New Orleans, LA) I have created a few databases for my workcenter and were simple enough that I managed. Now, I been task to help create a Call Center DataBase to keep track of Phone Calls and Issues the Agents(Employer received Daily) As well run other reports.
I am Including a copy of what I done so far. Can someone advise me about my Database Design? Does it makes sense? Are the Relationship seen good? my frmCustomer is based on query (qSupport) I would like to know if the form and the SubForm are set up ok where I can have the Agents input data. And one more thing on the frmMenu I have a few Text Boxes where I would like to display the total Amouth of Phone Calls received - as well the ones pending and Close? Any Criticism or Suggestion are more than welcome.
I hope my Question / Request makes sense. Thank you ....
I'm currently using Access 2010 and I'm working on a database project. My question is related to table relationships. Within that project I do have a table that is related to other three tables where that table is the parent. The problem here is that once that table is updated or have a new value it never cascades it down to the other tables.
1- How to have multi relationship to the same field on the same table from different tables? 2- how to cascade the updates to the related fields? 3- Is there any way to force the data update to other tables?
I have 3 inputs based on which i'll fetch records from table in a subform for the given input criteria. Please let me know how to populate subform programmatically?
I tried source object property and form.recordsource property. It gives me some error or the other. let me know the right syntax to do the above mentioned.
I have a standard Data Entry Form based on a WorkOrder. I am dealing with over 90 offices nation wide with mulitple offices in a state. I have a seperateTable that lists all 90 Offices which I have created a Query to Promt the user to enter the State code for that State.
Is there a way I can Select an Address from the Query and auto populate that information onto my WorkOrder form?
Any help would be greatly Appreciated as I have Exhausted myself trying to figure this out!
Each client record is unique. A client can have 'several' routing records.
Key field in Client is 'Client ID'.
Routing table has foreign key of: Client IDFK
I created a relationship of one to many from Client table 'Client ID' to Routing table 'Client IDFK'.
I created a form for the Client table and works.
Where I am having issue is: Client data is not populating into the following Routing form.
* I want a 'Routing form' that you can lookup client info and place it into that form. * The bottom of the form will be all the routing table fields. The new routing info will be entered into it.
My client needs that form printed for the driver. Client will have many routing forms(records) but only one client record. The driver will have one completed form for each time he picks up client.
