v sorry for the basic question, but ive been banging away at access and i cant my head around this..
i need to run a simple query. the query/ search will ask users to enter in the number of a document. i want, when this code is entered, for 2 controls on the form be updated with codes that are stored in a table based on the code they searched for originally.
heres my table structure...
Table A
Doc ID (PK)
Doc No (manually input and is the search item that users enter)
Table B
Unique ID (PK)
Doc No (FK)
Info (to populate field 1)
Info (to populate field 2)
how do i perform this in the query section? do i need to manually code the SQL required, or is this query basic enough that i can just select the fields required in the design view of the query?
I have two different database files. One is 2010 ".accdb" format where I have created a form and the inputs to the form is getting saved as records to an access.mdb file in a shared path.Now if the users want to edit the existing record I should allow them to search their previously submitted record with a unique ID number.
I know it is possible when we have both the form and table in the same db. But I want to know whether it is possible to search with a unique ID and pull the data from different db in a shared path using a command button?
Code BrandName Lead Free Nickel Free 001 AAAA Yes Yes 002 AAAA Yes No
On a form the user selects the code field and in this table the field is called BRAND. On the same form, I need to display the value in the Nickel Free field so if selects 001, the field on the form needs to be "Yes", if the user selects "002", the value needs to be "No"
I am having trouble with our receiving database. This database consists of two tables. One for vendors, which basically contains their vendor ID as well as vendor name and phone # etc. The other table is our receiving data table. When our receiving person receives product in, they log this in the receiving table including info such as date, autonumber for record, vendor etc. The problem is, when the person selects the vendor id, which is set up as a lookup field, we would like to have the vendor name pop up atuomatically within that record. I cannot for the life of me figure out why this isn't happening. The person is using a form to enter all of this data and runs a summary report at the end of the day. Our accounting dept. is requesting this info be added, but I cannot seem to figure it out. Thanks so much for any assistance! Amy (monet1369);)
I have a form I use for data entry, it needs to generate an id called RO Number and i need it be generated by access starting at number RO129036 and then keep adding sequentially, so RO129037 etc etc.
as i already have data in my DB that i need i cannot just reset any fields
having a table with just one field - the numeric part of the RO number so first one would be 129036 - so i need the form to pull this field, add 1, and then add "RO" at the beginning of it? i have really been struggling with this database
I am trying to add an attendance records to my database but cannot figure out how best to do it..I already have a 'children' table were all the kids info is stored and have created a 'roll' table.
i want to be able to open a form and search first and/or last name from the 'Children' table, then be able to save both first and last names and the date into the 'Roll' table. (then open reports etc later based on dates)how to pull data from one table and store it in another.
I have a table that has four columns. Column 1 had people's names, column 2 has their email, 3 has a category, and 4 has their office.
I have a form with radio buttons, When you check a radio button and press OK it will display the e-mails for the people selected. Problem comes when it's by category, since categories are not unique to one person. I want to click the category radio button and have it display every person under that category, concatenated with a comma.
Problem is I can't make a listbox because it will show the same categories several times instead of just once, so I want the radio button with the category name on its label, and then in the code I need to tell Access to go to the table and search for the e-mails from a specified criteria, the category.
Right now I have a subform with a combobox that pulls it's data from a table. I want the user to either select an existing item or type in a new item and have a macro create the new table row. What I have right now works in the sense that it prompts the user if they want to creat a new item and the new item is created (and I can see it in the combobox list), but I'm still getting an error saying that the item does not exist in the table forcing the user to manually select the newly created list item they just typed in.
Code: Private Sub MaterialCostCode_NotInList(NewData As String, Response As Integer) Dim rst As DAO.Recordset 'Update value list with user input. On Error GoTo ErrHandler Dim bytUpdate As Byte
[Code] ....
It appears that the new item doesn't always show up automatically and requires the form to be refreshed, so now I need to figure out how to get it to consistently appear right away without a refresh.
I have a module that is in Excel that is connecting to a back end database. I am trying to pull data from a table that meets a number of conditions. With the following statement, it is not returning any records,even though I know there are records that meet all of the conditions. I suspect the problem is with the last condition. In that condition I am trying to say that pull in records where it has been at least 14 days since the last review.
Code: strSQL = "SELECT tblsojrol_oc.* FROM tblsojrol_oc WHERE tblsojrol_oc.[Status] = 'Pending' AND tblsojrol_oc.[1st Review Date] IS NOT NULL AND " _ & "tblsojrol_oc.[3rd Review Date] IS NULL AND (DateADD(Day,14,tblsojrol_oc.[2nd Review Date])) >= #" & dt & "#;" objRs.Open strSQL, objConn, adLockReadOnly
I have built a nice database that has a form to enter data which logs in product received, there is a combo box on the same form that is linked through the query builder to auto populate the names from the contacts info table (the receivers of the product received) the contacts info table also contains information that is specific to each name such as locations.
As of now I have created a command button that brings me to the form that shows the information fields I need specific to a name, once I get that I have another command button to bring me back to the main form. How to create an additional list box on the main data entry form so as when the name is entered the new list box or text box (which is best?) will auto populate the information I need on one form instead of going back and forth.
Example:
Requester Name [ auto populate name ] currently linked to contacts info table (working)
(New field) Preferred Location [ need to auto populate location ] from the contacts info table (how do you pull locations specific to a contact name from the same table?
Is it possible in Access to create one input form that includes fields from different tables.
I want to create a single form that dispenses input fields to separate tables, I don't see anything to make this happen. I know you can retrieve data from separate tables utilizing querys. But is it possible to input data into a single form to multiple tables ?
i have 2 tables.. 1 with bookings and 1 with a BonusPeriod range.
in the Bookings table there is a field called [ServiceDate]
in the bonus table i have a field called [Period] which is text i also have 2 dates, [StartDate] And [EndDate] i need to Dlookup the Bonus table to return the value of the period table based on where the [ServiceDate] falls.
i dont want to use VBA (i really need it to work within a query that inserts it's data into another table)
i've tried everything but had no joy
Expr1: DLookUp("[Period]","BonusPeriods","[ServiceDate]" Between "#[StartDate]#" And "#[EndDate]#")
Expr1: DLookUp("[Period]","BonusPeriods","[Staff_BookingsAndQuotes_Master].[ServiceDate]" Between "#[StartDate]#" And "#[EndDate]#")
Expr1: DLookUp("[Period]","BonusPeriods","(FormatDateTime([ServiceDate]),"yyyy-mm-dd") Between (FormatDateTime([BonusPeriods]![StartDate]),"yyyy-mm-dd") and (FormatDateTime([BonusPeriods]![EndDate],"yyyy-mm-dd"))))
I'm totally newbie so please go easy on me, I finally learnt how to make database and tables by reading online tutorials. I'm now able to create a simple database in access, using tables and stuff. I want to ask, say i put 500 entries in my database and then i want to search for some specific data, how do i do that?
Say I'm making a database of model's agencies, and i want to pull all the models working in same agency and stuff like that, how do i do that. Do i have to create queries or forms? i'm confused, please help.
I have a make-table query that pulls all the fields from 1 table (MainTable), and creates a new table with a date stamp based apon a form value entered (New Table = MainTableWithDate).
Currently, I setup the query to pull info from the form field like this:
DateField: [Forms]![frmmain]![DateField]
However, when the make-table query is done - all date fields are blank (all other fields are correctly created), and when I look at the new created table (mainTableWIthDate), the typeassigned to the date field is "Binary" (in the form, I've specified LongDate).
I'm working in Access 97 (though I can use Access2000) and Outlook2000 and am trying to write a process that will go into a specified folder in a user's outlook and pull in the data from the emails there. The data will be in a standard csv format - but my biggest problem is trying to figure out how to systematically go into the folder, import the data from the email, and then move to the next email in the folder...
I have a form with a subform. I have the subform running a update query on a command button in the subform. The subform has the textboxes and I cant seem to get the query to pull the data from those textboxes. I have used the normal [forms]![form_name]![textbox_name] in the past but everything I try to pull the subform textbox data is not working.
I have tried [forms]![form_name]![subform_name]![textbox_name] [forms]![form_name]![subform_name].[form]![textbox_name] [forms]![form_name]![subform_name].[form].[textbox_name]
Nothing works. What is the correct syntax for this? Any help would be great !!! Thank you in advance.
I posted the following code on a button (report to a first sergeant). I can't pull e-mail addresses from the report (rptLateByUnit).

What I want the form to do is filter on a column where I have combined 3 columns of actives together. So the form will filter if one of those values is any of those three columns. So I have a macro setup right now trying to filter for anything "Like" what has been selected in the combo box. Here is what I have in the where condition of the filter macro:
see below the code . The select statement searches the Printpoolno value from the top to bottom in table tblmaster. As in my table tblmaster there are thousands of records and it takes long to search for that Printpoolno from the table . Is there anyway we can write a query that will search the table from bottom to top as the Printpoolno will always be in the bottom records and not in the top records.
Code:
Dim cn As ADODB.Connection Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset Dim r As Long
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.
