I have a text box on my table form with the expression =([LINES]-[MISSED LINES])/[LINES] which gives me the results I want but I also want this total to go to the "On time %" column in my table.

View 6 Replies View RelatedHello I have another prob. I need to be able to take a new ID from the topics table and insert it into the messages table after a form has been posted. I haven't got a clue on how to do this.
Its for a message board where a new topic is inserted. Two tables need to have records inserted, the topics table and messages table. The Topic_ID from the topics table is an autonumber and needs to go into the TopicID field in the messages table. Here's my insert query:
sqlString = "Insert into Topics (Topic, BSection, Username, MesDate) values ('" &_
Topic & "', '" & BSection & "', '" & Username & "', '" & MesDate & "')"
Con.execute(sqlString)
sqlString2 = "Insert into Messages (Username, Member_ID, Topic, Message, MesDate, BSection) values ('" &_
Username & "', '" & UserID & "', '" & Topic & "', '" & Message & "', '" & MesDate & "', '" & BSection & "')"
Con.execute(sqlString2)
I've tried using the identifier command but that didn't work so I haven't got a clue on what to do. Can anyone help?
thanks

Private Sub btnAddWorkingday_Click()
Dim strSQL As String

I have the following tables, tblAudit and tblCriteria. The first records companies and period of audit, the second contains the criteria against which they will be audited. The audit period determines which criteria apply.
Results are recorded in a third table, tblAuditResults.
Relationships
tblAudit 1:M tblAuditResults M:1 tblCriteria
My problem is when I try to add a new result by selecting a criteria via a combo box a new row is inserted in the criteria table as well as in the result table. Inserting a row in the criteria table is wrong.
I have attached the database for you to look at.
Thanks for any advice you can offer.

I have a table that holds company information for the user - eg farm name, company name, manager, phone number and email address etc. Its simply used to provide headers for reports, so that the same generic database can be used on several farms. There is only one record in this table tblfarmdetails.The second table tblorder is for orders and receipts - I currently have code that allows the user to send an order request by email to the manager, and to also send notice of receipt of goods through to the manager. I would like the code to get the email address from the unrelated table.Can I reference this field in the vba?
Private Sub cmdemailorder_Click()
Dim orderdate As String
Dim stafford As String
Dim item As String
Dim itemamnt As String

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have elected to have tables inserted into my forms. For example on the School Information form, I have the Employees table inserted at the bottom so that it will show the employees that are assigned to that school when it's pulled up.
Before I split my database into a BE/FE situation, I could expand the items in the tables to other related items, but now that option is gone.
Is there any way to get that back with a split database?
Hi, I want to insert an Expression in a text box of a report using VB.
This is what I wrote in the code builder section of report header.
Me.totalBox.Value = strTotalExp
Me is the header section of the report.
totalBox is the textbox.
strTotalExp is the expression that I want to enter, it is a string.
How should I do this?
Thanks.
I know how to do this in VB.NET ... I have a form with a combo box. I would like to create an "on change" event where it updates the text boxes on that same form depending on what's been selected in the combo box.
I don't know how to change the combo box's selected index so it defaults to the first item so there's no blanks/errors in my form.
So when the combobox contents is changed, I'd like a routine that updates all the text boxes kind of like this:
sub update()
TextBox = "SELECT * FROM Table_Name WHERE ID =" & Combobox.text
end sub
I am trying to pull a number from a text box. I listed the expression for the box below. [Current Record] is a number and Count(*) is a number. I couldn't figure out what field gave me the total records so I did a count instead. If I want to pull the value from just the count portion, what expression would do that?
Code:
=[CurrentRecord] & " of " & Count(*)
Note the spaces on either side of "of"
I have a table with a text field (named Description), which may or may not contain an "ID Number", which is of the form [CHSV]#[A-Z][A-Z][A-Z]## - NB this is not necessarily at the beginning or the end, and will vary between records. For e.g.
"something C4CLE01"
"something H5STT02 Something else"
What I would like to do in a query is to extract just the ID number part and put that in a new field e.g.
"something C4CLE01" => "C4CLE01"
"something H5STT02 Something else" => "H5STT02"
So far I have considering LIKE, which is no good because it doesnt tell you where in the string the regular expression is, and INSTR doesnt work with regular expressions AFAIK.
Added bonus difficulty - I use the database as an external source for an Excel pivot table. I created a function (which I named JOBID) in VBA to do the above job easily enough i.e. I added a field "JOBID([Description])", but when I try to use the data in said pivot table, it says "Undefined function JOBID in expression". I have tried copying the function to the Excel workbook, but that doesn't work.
Im using Office 2003 if that makes any difference. Thanks in advance.
I would like to be able to put an if expression in the default control of a tx box.
I would like to say
if txtA = 0 then [Forms]![frmNewAppointment]![OrderTime] else [Forms]![frmAppointmentTreatmentItems]![TextA]+[Forms]![frmNewAppointment]![OrderTime]
Is it possible and am i close to doing it mysel?
what's wrong with this iif statement?
=IIf([Details]="COST OF PRODUCT",[PerUnit]*[Quantity],0)
it keeps coming back with 0 even when the text says COST OF PRODUCT
I have also tried:
=IIf([Details]="COST OF PRODUCT*",[PerUnit]*[Quantity],0)
=IIf([Details] Like "COST OF PRODUCT",[PerUnit]*[Quantity],0) =IIf([Details] Like "COST OF PRODUCT*",[PerUnit]*[Quantity],0)
I'm using the expression builder to create it in a total box in the report footer, I have a box that gives me the total of the report using a sum and I need to show the cost of product separately to this as I need to use it in another calculation.
I have a form used for taking inventory. One table to lookup items, one for writing values. Tables linked by an ID #. I created a text box on my form to lookup a value called PARQTY in the lookup table. I need to be able to subtract that value from the QTY that is entered into the Qty_Counted box on teh same form when they take inventory.
I created a new Text box and in the control source for it, I entered an expresion that basically says subtract The PARQTY from the QTY_COUNTED it reads = [QTY_COUNTED] - [PARQTY]
The box is subtracting the QTY_COUNTED from the ID # that is linking my two tables and displaying it. Its not supposed to be subtracting the QTY_COUNTED at all. It should be subtracting the PARQTY value that is displayed from the QTY_COUNTED. The PARQTY box does display the right value from the lookup table so I can't figure out why it's pulling that ID number or where from. The rest of the form / program works and we've been using it for a few years. I also created that, but like now, I had to muddle through each and every little thing I did.
I am attempting to create an expression that will change the font to red if it is an overdue date. It will be on a form with the records showing.
My datebase is for entering, changing, and searching for information dealing with orientation dates, contacts, and associations. My data sheet holds the company name, employee name, date of orientation, due date (orientations are completed annually), contact employee, and status. I would like the date, when opening the form, to show red if it is past due. how to create an expresion to return the status as "Current" or "Overdue", as I am still unsure which method I want to use.
I'm currently in the process of moving from Excel to Access and am setting up a user table with 5 Fields (Full Name, First, MI, Last, Alias). I would like to only transfer the Full name and have the other field be calculated fields, so they automatically fill in. I was able to get the "Last" field to work, but the others are being tricky. Especially the "Alias" field which would need to take the first letter of the first name, MI letter and the entire last name, like (JPDoe).
The current format of my "Full Name" field looks like, (Doe, John P.) without the brackets of course. I'm new to Access, so I was trying to use the Expression Builder to do all of it, unless there is an easier way?
I am just starting with access and I have a VERY stupid question. I made a combobox (it gets its values from a table with 2 colums the first the ID and the second is the products) when a user selects one of the products in the combobox the combobox is supposed to update another table with that value (and I mean the product name) yet what it updates is the ID # of the product that was selected!! How do i go around this.
I am new to access so i am not sure how things are done yet in access, i am pretty good in VBA in excel, but this is a new front for me that I am trying to learn. I did the above combobox using the wizard.

Using Access 2010 and ODBC connections to pull data from 3 sources (SQL Server 2008, a customized Documentum application, and Windows AD accounts). Problem is user_login_name is sometimes recorded as lowercase, sometimes as propercase, and sometimes as uppercase depending on which table or source being used. For example, lowercase would be "abcd123", propercase would be "Abcd123", and uppercase would be "ABCD123". I thought I could just wrap each join comparison in the From stmt in the query(s) with the UCase() function, but Access doesn't like that.
How can I convert or cast the various user_login_names within the FROM join statement to be the same text case so joins will pull correct data?
I have a subform generated by a query, I then have a double click function to run a further query this works when I open the subform separatly, but if I open the form and then double click on the field in the subform this will give me a error!

I have two tables in a query joined by a ID field. The problem is in the one table the ID fiels is a text format and in the other table its a number format so the query builder doesnt like that and gives me the Type mismatch in expression error.
There's no way around it though; i need it to be those formats in its respective tables for reasons i wont go into here for simplicity.
I would like to convert a text string to integer.
Lots of posts say to use val, but it is not listed in access 2010
So I am trying,
Creating a field that is numeric then just referring to the string field.
This works good except where it finds actual text. It puts the value "#Type!" in there.
Would there be some kind of function to check for an error or check if the value is text.
New here, looks like a great resource.
I have a question about a form which has several fields on it. What I need to do is to capture the ALL the fields of the record I just entered(updated or inserted)
So, for example, if my form has fields for
RepID, RepName, Company
After I edit or insert a new record, when I click to the next line, is there a way I can use AfterUpdate event to capture ALL the fields that were just updated on the form, and do whatever it is I need to do with them? I hope I am amking myself clear. Thanks for taking the time to look.
I am inserting a new record into a 'master' table. Primary key is generated using a sequence. Now using that newly inserted primary key value, I need to insert a new record in child table. These 2 insert queries need to run at the time of deployment. how shall I store that primary key in a variable so that I can use it immediately in next insert statement?Can I use a returning into clause?
