Forms :: Timestamp Record When Field In Subform Updated
Jun 16, 2014I have a form and a subform based off a query, I am trying to run a SQL update statement from one of the fields in my subform. I know what fields in my table i want to update but the Where part of the statement is what i am having a issue with.
DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE [Daily Work] SET [Daily Work].QC_Start_Date = Date(),
[Daily Work].QC_Start_Time = Time() WHERE ((([Daily Work].CUS)=[Forms]![QC_Queue_Qry Subform]![CUS])
AND (([Daily Work].LN)=[Forms]![QC_Queue_Qry Subform]![LN]) AND (([Daily Work].Note_Date)=[Forms]!
[QC_Queue_Qry subform]![Note_Date])))"
What this is trying to do is once the the field is updated i want to set the date and time of that record in my table, basically I am trying to time stamp the record when the field in my subform in updated.
Forms :: Timestamp Record After Update Event And Copy Data Into Another Form?
Oct 2, 2014I have a simple data entry form on which there are about 30 to 40 data fields to be update by users. One of the field is called "Stage" which is a combo box with 2 entries "Formal Case" and "Informal Case" with no default value whien a form is first opened.
Users will normally create a data entry which updates the table and save.
However if in future users open any one existing record and try to change Stage field from Informal to Formal or vice a versa I would then like this action to
1) update a time stamp concatinated with the stage change value in a text field perhaps
2) save/close the form
3) open a new form with all the existing entries(plus changed status of "Stage Field") with a new record ID and new time stamp.
Multiple Record Entries
Sep 6, 2004We currently have an Access database that is designed to keep track of a number of calling cards that are issued to our clients.
The serial numbers given to us are sequential when issued in batches of 50 or more but, when another batch is ordered the serial numbers can be out of sequence by anywhere from 100 to 10,000 numbers. At present I am the only one who is entering the serial numbers into the system, this is done by importing from an Excel spreadsheet or from a text file.
What I want to do is, add another form which will allow the other operators to add the data themselves by entering the start and the end of the batch seqence rather than entering them in individually or having to teach them how to import data without overwriting the current information.
Can anyone help me?????
Limit Number Of Record Entries
Mar 3, 2006HeyI'm trying to create a Library database. This involves restricting the number of loans available to each member (currently 3). I need to make it so no more than 3 records exist in that table for each member. For now ive just entered a VB script that has a message box saying not to enter more than 3 loans per person but I dont think thatll be enough, I need some sort of validation for the whole table rather than a field.I know how to limit the returns of sql queries which is all I can find, but not how to limit the actual amount of entries. The loan table is part of a double query within a subform of the member form if it helps :s

Jun 3, 2014I have created a DB to hold training records for a company and have been using it for some years. When I record training I have to enter the data for one person at a time which is fine when you only need to do 10 or 12 but recently I had twenty people complete the same training and I don't really want to enter them one at a time.
What I would liket to be able to do is to bring up the Training Form, select the one Training Description (TrainingDescriptionQuery) and then select multiple Employees from the EmployeeDetailsQuery.
Find The First Occurrence Of Multiple Record Entries
Mar 8, 2008As my screen name implies, I am a new to Access and I’m seeking some input to resolve an issue. I have tried numerous queries, read MSDN forums and Access help w/o success. I hope someone would have some ideas.
See ATTACHMENT for screen shot of the following scenario:
Two tables in a one-to-many relationship. The parent table (tblAdmByWard) contains the autonumber primary key (PatientID) and additional fields that will not change while the child table (tblContStayEval) has a corresponding field (i.e. PatientID) to secure referential integrity PLUS additional fields as shown that are evaluated and updated daily. During the update the current date is entered (DateOfReview) along with additional info thus creating a new daily record in the child table.
I would like to query the child table (tblContStayEval) to find and return ONLY the first occurrence (DateOfReview) that the criteria (Variance) was selected…i.e.2/24/2008 as illustrated in the screen shot. This needs to occur for all (PatientID) records but exclude any subsequent and/or similar selections. By “similar” I mean the date will be different for each record in the child table while the data in the other associated fields may or may not be.
I hope I explained this okay as I’m not sure how to go about this. Any ideas or thoughts would be appreciated.
Posting Multiple Values Or Entries To One Record?
Jul 14, 2014I am trying to create a database for a company I work with which creates a food product which needs to be traceable from creation to finish. I have created a table with all of the necessary information for the creation of a batch.
1. During this batch creation, we add water multiple times which we record each time, i.e., 2cups, 2 cups, 2cups, etc. I have a field for "water", and wish to record each instance and amount of water added, but only want one record for the complete batch. Also I only need the total water amount in the batch record, but want to be able to expand to see the individual amounts as needed.
2. Also, we need to record various readings (temp, etc.) throughout batch creation. Again, same problem as before.
What is the best way to do this? I want to be able to reference this info anytime I want to check creation specs for each individual batch.
I am using forms for data entry.
Table Record Entries Exists But 0 Shown In Form
Jul 23, 2005Hi,
In the current db there are some tables and queries, forms designed around them
With one table Test
http://members.optusnet.com.au/~lukechang/access/table_d.JPG
That has 3 records in them
http://members.optusnet.com.au/~lukechang/access/table.JPG
Just won't show in form anymore, at this stage
http://members.optusnet.com.au/~lukechang/access/form.JPG
The Form was working previously. This is the second time this problem has came up, I thought it would go away if I made a new form and pasted all the controls and codes. It indeed went away for a while until this problem hit me again...
This db is in Access 2000 format and designed using Access 2003
I would appreciate if anyone is willing to point me to the right directions, many many thanks in advance
Reports :: Relevant Record Entries Into Report And Email

View 1 Replies View RelatedQueries :: Show New Record Entries Made From A Form
Feb 26, 2014I created a form for data entry only where records could be continually added until you were done and closed the form. Into that form I dropped a query that kept a running list in datasheet form of all the new records entered while the form was open, and then cleared when the form was closed (so the query was empty when the form was opened again).
My Problem: I accidentally deleted that query.
What I need:
-Query to be empty when form is opened.
-Records added while form is open get displayed in the query after record is saved.
Forms :: Creating A Form Which Copy Selective Entries From Previous Record
Dec 10, 2013I am tasked with creating a scientific database of fish catches at various different sampling stations. I envisage the entry form having hierarchy levels, ie year, season, date, sample station, species caught, and then the specific associated data with each species (weight, abundance, length etc) will form each distinct record.
In each year there are 2 sampling seasons. In each sampling season there are up to 20 dates on which samples are taken. On each date there are up to 50 sample stations recorded. And at each station up to 20 species can be recorded.
In order to enter each species caught in a survey, the end user will potentially have to fill the season box with an entry 40,000 times. For each season there will be 20,000 date entries to be made. For each date, 1,000 station code entries, and 20 species entries for each station. What I would like to happen is this.
When the end user is entering the data, he or she will be working through the hierarchy from the ground up. Ie., they will enter a particular species' data (abundance, weight, length etc) at a particular station on a particular date during a particular sampling season. The next entry will be a different species at the same station on the same date during the same season. I would like the duplicated information from the previous record to be copied across onto the new one so that all the end user has to do is enter the species name, abundance weight and length data.
Once they have finished entering all the species data for that particular site, they can move onto the next site which they would fill in the data themselves for the station code. So, in the hierarchy, the first button would copy all the previous data except the species name and associated weight length abundance data. The next button would do the same, except leave the station code blank. The next button would leave the species name, station code and date blank. And so on up the hierarchy. The end user would be able to selectively choose which data is copied over by using these buttons, saving lots of potential extra work doing repetitive entries.
Creating Two Tables - Old Entries And Weekly New Entries?
Mar 13, 2014I have a table in access which is updated weekly; I need to create two tables from this updated table.
1st table will consist of all the new entries for the current week
2nd table will consist of all the entries from the previous week - an amalgamation of all the entries which are not from the "current week" (table) For example; the table below shows the two entries from last week.
ID
Name
1
Adam
2
Ben
This week I have three new entries New entries
ID
Name
3
Charles
4
Richard
So when I run the same query next week I will get something like this.
Old Entries
ID
Name
1
Adam
2
Ben
3
Charles
4
Richard
[code]....
How do I get a query /queries which divides up the weeks new entries and also all the old entries.
Date And Timestamp
May 8, 2006I am new at programming within Access, and I am trying to develop a simple database that will record a timestamp when an order is placed. I have tried the Now() function, but that will record the timestamp on the desktop which can be changed manually before entering the record. Is there a way to record a timestamp using a Unix server or another desktop from access?
Any help would be appreciated.

How can I query for a date range while ignoring the time part of the stamp.
EX. a parameter query for a month worth of encounters using the above date format.

Problems With Timestamp
Apr 23, 2008I have a timestamp field in a database and only want to display the Date. In the query I placed this: Date Received: Format([RItemTimeStamp],"Short Date")
Works fine however if I try to run a query to serach for a date range it doesn't give me all the days.
I then tried this: Date Received: DateValue([RItemTimeStamp])
but get the message that the this expression is typed incorrectly or too complex. Here is the entire sql statement for this query:
SELECT DateValue([RItemTimeStamp]) AS [Date Received], Count(EARNS_Data_tbl.RTransaction) AS [Total EARNS Received], Format([RItemTimeStamp],"Long Time") AS [Time Received], Count(EARNS_Data_tbl.Earns_Processor) AS CountOfEarns_Processor
FROM EARNS_Data_tbl
GROUP BY DateValue([RItemTimeStamp]), Format([RItemTimeStamp],"Long Time")
HAVING (((DateValue([RItemTimeStamp])) Between [Forms]![PowerUserForm]![Start_Time_audit] And [Forms]![PowerUserForm]![End_Date_audit]))
ORDER BY DateValue([RItemTimeStamp]);

Sorting Issues With TimeStamp

Any ideas how to resolve this?

My code looks something like this and it work fine by producing an email and inserting into an access database
My problem is I also want to insert a timestamp into the column that already exists in the database and I just can't get the syntax right
SQL= "INSERT INTO Employees "
SQL= mySQL & "(FirstName,LastName,Address,City,Region,PostalCode ) "

Timestamp, Multi-user Issues.
Jan 10, 2007I use a timestamp field in my tables to help me with productivity metrics for about 6 individuals who use one of my databases.
The issue I have is that their system times are constantly "out of whack." We fix them, and it just happens again. It apparently another program on the computer that causes the issue, but I can't do anything about that.
Is there another timesource available for the timestamp when using now()? Is there a way to use the time of the server (shared) that the backend is on?
I have no idea how to fix this issue.:confused:
