Jan 23, 2008Hallo,
I have a post code field on my form. What I want to do is, if a user enters a wrong code ... i,.e., not Post code format it alerts the user of post-code not in use. Please if there is any example of a database of this functionality usage or a way of doing it will be much appreciated.
I live in UK and the post codes down here are like E12 5AH ....
Many thanks
Post Code Validation
Apr 7, 2006I have searched the forum for posts on the subject of UK postal code validation and found the reg expression that seems to be recommended for this.
I tried the expression but it will not accept this postal code? TS183AM
Like "(?:(?:A[BL]|B[ABDHLNRST]?|" & "C[ABFHMORTVW]|D[ADEGHLNTY]|E[CHNX]?|F[KY]|G[LUY]?|" & "H[ADGPRSUX]|I[GMPV]|JE|K[ATWY]|L[ADELNSU]?|M[EKL]?|" & "N[EGNPRW]?|O[LX]|P[AEHLOR]|R[GHM]|S[AEGKLMNOPRSTWY]?|" & "T[ADFNQRSW]|UB|W[ACDFNRSV]?|YO|ZE)" & "d(?:d|[A-Z])? d[A-Z]{2})"
First Number In A Post Code
May 23, 2007Hi,
I'm trying to isolate the first letter / letters of UK post codes.
Typically they are of the format ..
WS9 0JL
The obvious choice is left,2 but of course it's never that simple
some post codes are B1 7FH so left 2 gives me B1 but I need just the B
I can use Left 2 and the look at the second character to see if it is = "1" or "2" etc. but this seems a bit crude.
Is there a way I can find the position of the first number in a string (using the Instr function maybe)
That way i could Isolate the letter/s
Thanks

Post Code Validation
Mar 20, 2006hello all
this thing is really bugging me im trying to come up with a post code validation and i have tried dozens, which should have worked really, but just havent so wondering if you guys knew any
examples of postcodes would be
BN3 8JH
BN41 8JH
the first and second characters have to be a letters
the 3rd has to be a number
the 4th is sometimes a letter (not always present)
then theres a space
then there has to be a number
letter
letter
any suggestive codes would be great, as none of mine have worked its in access
thanks
Modules & VBA :: Search Code Deactivates Navigation Buttons When Search Results Are Longer Than A Page
Jun 24, 2015I have a form that has a subform on it. The main form shows a category of furniture and has custom navigation buttons and a search text box for asset numbers and command button that runs the search. The subform shows the asset numbers associated with that furniture category, sometimes there is only one asset number, in other cases there could be 60. There is a scroll bar to scroll through the asset numbers when there are too many to see in the initial window.
The buttons all work as they should except when I search for an asset number that is part of a category that has too many asset numbers to show in the main window. When this happens the "previous" and "next" navigation buttons do not take you to the previous or next record. All of the other buttons on the form work though - you can go to the first, or the last record, and you can search for a new asset.This is the code for the search:
Code:
Private Sub cmdAssetSearch_Click()
Dim rs As Object
If IsNull(Me.TextAsset) Or Me.TextAsset = "" Then
MsgBox "Please type in an asset number to search for.", vbOKOnly
Me.TextAsset.SetFocus
[code]....
I've also attached a picture of what I mean when I say there are more asset numbers than what the window shows.

Apr 17, 2008Hi everyone. I have the following code attached to a text box.
Private Sub txtsearch_AfterUpdate()
Me.lstsearch.RowSource = "Select [R&D ID#], [SKU#], [Project Name], [Construction level], [Manufacturer], [Hobbico Status], [R&D Work By], [Product Manager], [Desktopper]" & _
"From [Project Main]" & _
"Where [Project Name] like '*" & Me.txtsearch & "*'" & _

"OR [R&D Work By] like '*" & Me.txtsearch & "*'" & _
"OR [Product Manager] like '*" & Me.txtsearch & "*'" & _
"OR [Desktopper] like '*" & Me.txtsearch & "*'" & _
"OR [R&D ID#] like '*" & Me.txtsearch & "*'"
Me.lstsearch.Requery
End Sub
This code searched for matching text strings in a few different filed. It is working really well, but it would become much more helpful if instead of searching one single text string, I could enter two in the same box and it would perform the search based on matching both strings, that is, list all the records that have xxxx and xxxx in any of the fields checked.
Can the above code be tweaked to do this?

Modules & VBA :: Code To Search For TIF File And Then Open It
Aug 15, 2013How to write some code that will search a known drive and folder structure for a tif file and on finding it, open that tif file.
The known drive/folder structure is as follows:
M:CustomerSatisfactionStdDGImages
or it could have the full path as follows:
prdfs01QUESTIONSCustomerSatisfactionStdDGImag es
and then there are the following folders which contain any number of tif images:
01_Q
02_Q
03_Q
04_Q
05_Q
06_Q
07_Q
10_Q
11_Q
12_Q
13_Q
14_Q
17_Q
18_Q
19_Q
20_Q
21_Q
23_Q
24_Q
28_Q
29_Q
30_Q
31_Q
32_Q
33_Q
34_Q
35_Q
36_Q
37_Q
38_Q
39_Q
AR_Q
HE_Q
SKY_SKY3B
I would like to have a button in a form that the end user clicks and they then enter the name of the tif file they are looking for and on pressing enter the file is searched for and if found it is automatically opened up for them to see, if it is not found then a message "File Not Found" is displayed.
I Believe that I will need something like this:
Code:
Dim FS As FileSystemObject
Dim filenum As Integer
Dim tmp As String
Dim Folder As Folder
Dim subFolder As Folder
Dim File As File
[Code] .....
It's when I get to this point that I've got stuck, I don't know how to structure the code required to do the search and on finding the tif file open it.
An example tif file I might search for is: 0H214_2CJ0001905.tif.

Queries :: Telephone Number Search Area Code (STD)
Oct 27, 2013What I am trying to do is i have a list of area codes connected to other data
What I want to do is do a search on a telephone number and this will check against the area codes and diaplay the required info
Example
Area info1 info2
01234 ab cd
012345 ar mc
01235 fg tr
So if I put a number like 01234567890 in the search box the result it will show is 012345 ar mc as this si the closet match to the telephone number.
I did it in excel with
=INDEX(whatwouldbedisplayed,MATCH(searchinfo,rowof data,1))
Im not to sure if this can be done as a query so would it have to be a macro?
Modules & VBA :: Checking Multiple Criteria Search Code Is Correct?
Feb 25, 2015Staff are monitored to make sure they are keeping up to date with our customers. A customer can have multiple projects going through the factory at any one time. Each customer has a record per project and a 'general' record. Ideally we would like our staff to be able to move the 'general' record when they update a project record as opposed to either having to find and then update the general record after, or forgetting and calling the customer again 2 days later!
Including a msgbox for the EnqNum seems to show the general record correctly, however being new to access I am unsure if I have the update part correct.
Code:
If Me.chkMoveGen.Value = "-1" Then
Dim EnqNum As Integer
EnqNum = DLookup("[e_id]", "tblEnquiries", "[c_id]=" & Me.txtc_id & " and [e_status] = " & "13")
DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE tblEnquiries " & _
" SET e_date_due=#" & Format(Me.txte_date_due, "MM/DD/YYYY") & "#" & _
" WHERE e_id= EnqNum"

Don't Know Where To Post This
Jul 8, 2006I am developing an Access (2000) database to provide reporting data gathered from SAP and make it easily accessable for 12 analysts. The data set is HUGE, 5 months nearly a gig and will need at least 2 years worth, so I don't see any option other than using SQL as a back end. I have experiance using SQL server as the back end but have never had to develop my own server.
I do not have access to an existing server but do have permission to purchase SQL software, this is where I need the help. If anyone has suggestions, advice, links or other information I would be greatly appreciative.
Thanks in advance for your help.
“where I added information”
A lot of you have been reading this but no help.:eek: Did I use a poor title? I have used SQL as a back end but really need to know how to produce one out of thin air.
I ordered SQL 2005 off my company's IT store but when reading further it needs a special operating system, I think. Is this true? What do I need to have in order to provide a very large data set to a bunch of barely computer literate analysts?
These people are excited when they realize that vlookup can do more than one thing!! The concept of a union query would blow them away. I am frustrated with the competency of my co-workers but need to give them something that is idiot proof without letting them know that this is the object.
Currently they are having an SAP download sent to a specified share drive and running an Excel “macro”, moves a couple of columns an such, that puts it into a format that is semi-usable. This is totally inefficient for their needs but they don’t know it as yet.
What I am asking is how to take a fairly robust pc and make it a SQL server that will service a dozen or so people. What kind of operating system is needed and what sort of admin rights will be necessary to allow access to the desktop so they can get their data?
The IT help desk is very scary, not really understanding the requests presented. I haven’t been with the company very long but what I have garnered disturbs me I don’t believe the IT people have a clue.
I’ve been an Access developer for about 4 years now and know this is not an insurmountable obstacle. I am confident that SQL is the solution but haven’t ever had to create it from scratch before. Please, links or other suggestions are MOST appreciated.
Dunno Where To Post This....
Sep 4, 2007Preface: I don't know where to post this since I'm using a VBA executed SQL command or if this is a table issue.
I'm trying to import a .csv file into a "master" table of several .csv files. I've figured out how to link them and import them even though they have different field names, but the problem I'm running into is with serial numbers.
Some serial numbers are entirely numbers, while others are alphanumeric. When the field is set to numbers all of the parts (a different field) show up, but not all of the serial numbers are imported. When the field is set to text some of the parts are dropped, along with their associated serial numbers and then some of the serial numbers show up as scientific notation.
Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

Follow-Up To Previous Post...
Nov 15, 2004Greetings,
I am just posting a follow-up on my previous post on designing functional forms. Telling by the lack of replies, my original question may have been long winded and tedious. Let me try to narrow my question and make it more concise.
In two tables connected by a one-one field name ProfileID, how can I set a new field in the second table (call it StepNo or procedureNo) so that it increments step numbers for each unique ProfileID record? Thus for each new Profile record created in the first table, a new form will allow the entry of X numbers of steps into the second table and automatically link the two records?
I hope that clarifies my problem. Thanks in advance.

I have a very simple database which displays the questions stored in a table in a form . The recipent answers the questions generaly yes or No. On answering yes or no i wish to attach values (hidden) to thier answers and then based on the answers produce a simple set of bar charts. I have tried but do not know how to assign the values to the questions . i would then like to produce 5 bar charts 1 for each of the catogories and one as a total (as an overall and also in sub groups of which there are 4 each of which has a field with a specific prefix either b,c,r,s dependant on the type of question. )
hope someone can help
