I have a field that contains an input mask : 99/99/00 99:00;0;_ this allows the user to enter a date and time in one field. Such as 04/24/13 15:00 . I want to put validation on that field, so that the user can't enter a time that does not exist such as "25:30" or a date that hasn't happened yet. How to accomplish that? The data is going into a linked SQL table so I'm limited on what I can do on the table end I think.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello, all;
I think this is probably a simple solution for some of you.
I have a database containing records for which I need to set dates to follow up on.
I would like to ensure that the date that is entered is a business day (So that when I run my follow up report for the day - I don't end up missing items that were inadvertantly entered for a weekend!)
I have hunted around for a similar thread - but have not found anything.
I am thinking that a simple bit of validation could be entered for the field properties.
Any ideas?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi All,
Does someone know how to validate data entered in textbox to a table? In other words: how to check the value entered in the textbox exists in the table.
Thanks.
I have a form that needs to be updated by multiple users. The information must be entered in the following format:
<a href="http://website.com">Write any title here</a> and then they can add a description
The users are not familiar with HTML and often submit it with incorrect syntax. I would like to prevent these errors prior to submission by writing some sort of validation. Is there a way to accomplish this? I imagine a macro is best for this situation. Multiple entries are often entered in a single cell (not sure if this would mess with the validation?)
i would like some help on how to validate a user's entry in a form. i have a query that calculates number of hours remaining for a particular customer. when a user submits the number of hours used on the form, i want to check that this value does not exceed the number of hours they have remaining. and display a message box if they dont have enough hours remaining. any suggestions on how best to do this?
the query has a where statement like 'WHERE customer = customer_code' so customer_code is entered by the user. how do i set this so that the value for customer_code is taken from a field on the form?
Hi
I was wondering if anybody could help with this. I have searched through this forum and there doesnt seem to be an answer to this.
I have a form that i would like to validate. At present i have put the data validation on the save button which triggers a script that checks to see if certain boxes have been filled in on the form. I can only get this to work be attaching it to the onclick event on a save button, however, what i really want is to be able to ditch the save button (since access writes to the DB as it goes along) and have this script triggered whenever the user tries to navigate to either a new record/ another existing record or close the form
I tried putting this on the beforer update event, but this does not work, additionally tried doing before update event with the code inside an if me.form.dirty = true statement
this did not work either, has anybody got any suggestions
Please see my code below
Thanks

I am trying to validate that the user selects at least one checkbox out of three on the form in Access 2010. They can select one, two or even all three if they wish, but at least one must be checked. I am using the following code attached to the click event of a command button. It was fine but seems to have stopped working. The control names are generic to illustrate my code. The form is unbound:

I have a textbox where I need an afterupdate event, which should check that input is 3 letters followed by 3 numbers. The total is 6 characters, but always 3 letters + 3 numbers. If condition not met, a msgbox will be shown, for the user to input correctly, before being able to continue.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've done some looking into how to validate in Access and I found how to do it for an entire field but I was wondering if it's possible to validate a single record in a field.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a main form that has 3 fields. They are all locked fields, only to show the user the "person" record that they are looking at. They update to subforms on a tab. The first subform is activities (like from a mailing - received return no forwarding address, received updated address, called us, etc)
The other subform is for addresses, original and updated.
There is a date field for the date of any updated addresses.
What I need to do is allow users to enter activities and move around from main record to main record. The important thing is that if they enter an activity on the subform that is for receiving an address change, I need to make sure that they do not leave the main record, without entering in an updated address for that same date, on the address subform.
The activity subform has a date field too, so the validation part seems like it wouldnt be too hard...
IIF ?subform-activities-field-activitytype = "updated address" (3/code to lookup table) AND ?subform-address-field-date = grrr this is where I get confused.
Then msg "Stop, you must add the updated address for the activity of receiving an address change"
cancel = true
end if
make sense?
Any help would be gratefully appreciated!
Hello
I have a field called [Hours]
If a user tries to change the [Hours] I need to check if any of these hours have been assigned to staff in another table.
How do I get to run the query and use the value from the result of the query as the Minimum value?
I would like to
run sql and if the value is being entered into the [HOURS] field is less then show a message and do not change allow the value to change.
I am sure this can be done in VB but I am am unsure of the syntax
I hope U can help
Payroll main form to post attendance record. Before I open the attendance form, I wanted to check if there is a record in the sql statement.

Dim stSQL As String
Dim dbHBK As DAO.Database

I would like to ask how can i validate the username and password in a textbox? I have a frmLogin and frmMain.
I have also a table called 'tblUsers' with column fields 'username and password'.
If username is not found in database then a msgbox will prompt 'Username is not yet created'.
If username is okay and password is incorrect then msgbox will prompt 'Incorrect password'
If username and password is okay, then a msgbox will prompt 'Successfully login' and will continue to frmMain.
I have a table called 'Klanten' which contains the rows 'password' and 'login' (and several rows not needed for this form)
So I'm trying to make a login form which first checks if something is entered (this part of the code seems to work).
Private Sub Knop13_Click()
'Check to see if data is entered into Username
If IsNull(Me.Username) Or Me.Username = "" Then
MsgBox "gelieve een login in te voeren.", vbOKOnly, "Required Data"
Me.Username.SetFocus
[Code] ....
But from then on i seem to have some issues.. The part of the code underneath seems to only work for the first 'login' and 'paswoord' in my table called "Klanten".
-Username is the name for the field where they enter their 'login'.
-Password is the name for the field where they enter their 'paswoord'
If Username.Value <> DLookup("[login]", "Klanten", "[Username]='" & Username & "'") Then
MsgBox "Invalid Username. Please try again.", vbOKOnly, "Invalid Entry!"
Exit Sub
End If
If Password.Value <> DLookup("[wachtwoord]", "Klanten", "[Password]='" & Password & "'") Then
MsgBox "Invalid Password. Please try again.", vbOKOnly, "Invalid Entry!"
Exit Sub
End If
Then as last part i would like to goto another form called 'Mainmenu' if both the Login and the Paswoord is correctly entered in the fields Username and Password. Here i have the most issues as this doesn't seem to do anything at the moment
If Password.Value = DLookup("[wachtwoord]", "Klanten", "[Username]='" & Username & "'") And Username.Value <> DLookup("[login]", "Klanten", "[Password]='" & Password & "'") Then DoCmd.OpenForm "Mainmenu"
End Sub
I'm working with several different source datasets. Mostly this are TXT files.
When I import the data in a new table with a specification, I want to validate if the dataset is the correct dataset be validating the headers in the source data.
I have created a table with the headers, that consists of 92 columns. Below 3 example columns of the header data:
tbl_Tickets_Headers
Field1 Field2 Field3
StagnationId TicketTypeId SequenceNr
Now I want to check during the import of the imported data has a line in it that is equal to the data in the table headers. If not, the import stops and informs the user that the data set is not correct. This to prevent that incorrect data will be inserted into the database.
Some extra information: The data is import into the database via VBA DoCmd.TransferText into a new created table, using an inport specification.
If the data is okay, it will be appended to an existing table that is being used to process the data further. After that the import table is being deleted.

I am trying to deny users from logging on from multiple pc's. Here is how i've got it so far,created table tblLoginLock with fields EmpID and LoggedIn both numberical data type created a form to set the Empid with tempvar!TempEmpId and LoggedIn as 1 when a user logs in.When he clicks the logOff button he is signed out and a form opens up and closes to set the LoggedIn field to 0.Now whenever a user is signed the LoggedIn Field is checked with this expression
Code:
DLookUp("[TempVars]!TempEmpID","tblLoginLock","[LoggedIn]=1")
if there is a one then the user is logged in the condtion is met and a message box pops up to warn the user that he is already logged in.
The above code does not check the specific TempVar to the LoggedIn field, the LoggedIn field is randomly checked for a '1' meaning if there is a '1' anywhere in the table then the condition is met and the user denied. how can i set the condition to validate the logged in user to the LoggedIn field.
