I am new to the forums, so if i posted this in the wrong section...please accept my apologies...
I am creating a database for recording some information about various customers. There is a date field involved, and if a certain number of days pass from that date, i want to create a button that when it is pressed it will check all the dates to see if this condition is true.
EX
Current Date is 10/21/2006, when i press the button, the database will check to see if 10 days have passed from the date recorded.
User 1 - 10/05/2006 - True
User 2 - 10/10/2006 - True
User 3 - 10/15/2006 - False
Then it would just display the records which are listed as true only. I was thinking of using a query, but i am not sure how to quite do so...please give your recommendations as to what i can do.
I'm an Access newbie, self-taught. I can make a basic form to input data.
What I'm trying to create is a tool for assessing aquisition of student skills. I want to be able to check that a student knows the name of a letter or the sound of a letter - but have the check recorded as a date in the datasheet.
Is this possible? And, can you explain to me how to do this in language I can understand? I'm not a programmer you see
I work for a company that manufactures home appliances & electronics. When those products fail within the warranty period, we are obligated to repair the units for the customers.
We have around 200 factory technicians who make those repairs. Each tech is able to make approximately 8 repairs each day. We have a dispatching system that assigns the repairs to the techs based on their availability each day. But the problem is that we have to manually enter and adjust the schedule for all 200 techs every single day, and this takes a lot of time. And of course technicians get sick, take vacation, etc, so we have to adjust the schedule so no techs will be assigned calls when they're off.
The problem: For example, currently when a technician takes off for 2 weeks, the user has to enter 14 individual records for the tech, which is somewhat time consuming. What I need is to program a button click event to determine the two dates (startDate & endDate) and append multiple records from one single entry in the form for each date in between and including the two date fields.
I know I'll probably need to create a loop that will loop through the two dates on the form and append a record for each day, so I can then cross reference the dates to the master schedule dates to make sure that no availability is opened for the techs taking time off.
Looking to create two command buttons or two keystrokes sets in an Access 2007 form that will allow me to place a current date and time in any allowable field where the Cursor is presently placed. Similar to what was in Access 2000, ctl: (for the current date) and ctl shift : (for the current time).
I created a database and I manage to split it into front end and backend. now I'm going to make an EXE of the front end.My question is when I open the front end, I need the database to be empty, and them create a button that will make the user select which project he wants to open (backend).I also need to create a button that will create a new empty backend and save it as a new project.
I have created a query for telling me the dates when I need to check driving licenses from my drivers.
I have also made a Yes/No check box for when they are 'Live' employees and another Yes/No check box for when they have left. I need to exclude the records from the query with the 'Left Employment' box checked ('Live' box un checked).
I need to keep the record for 12 months after they leave so I cant delete it.
We use access to enter our service tickets in at work.What we have are three date fields.
Call Date Start Date End Date
We are 24/7 operation.Currently all 3 just autopopulate with the current date.What i would like to do is ADD a CHECKBOX next to each Date Field.And make it work like this.
1. let them autopopulate as they are currently 2. if you end the call AFTER MIDNIGHT (the next day). CHECKING the box would automatically populate yesterdays date in each of the fields that has the check box CHECKED
I have some code that filters job raised I have 2 text box's txtdatestart and txtenddate after entering. date range between the too text boxs it shows me all job raised with in the period.i have entered what I would like is filter it again by client field using combo box cboclient so if the user enter's client name in cboclient combo box and date range in txtdatestart and txtenddate it will only show jobs raised with in the date range of the client enter in the combo box but if the combo box is empty show.
Code:
Private Sub cmdPreview_Click() 'On Error GoTo Err_Handler 'Remove the single quote from start of this line once you have it working. Dim strReport As String Dim strDateField As String Dim strWhere As String Dim lngView As Long Const strcJetDate = "#mm/dd/yyyy#" 'Do NOT change it to match your local settings.
I'm trying to create a checklist in my access database that can be assigned to different companies. Is there a way to maintain a blank checklist so that we don't have to recreate it every time we start working with a new company?
I am building a database for a friend of mine and I would like to give the user the option to mark all of the checkboxes simultaneously. The Checkbox field is called "[Printed Yes/No]". I have set up the command button which is called Check All and I would like it to function like a light switch enabling and disabling all the checkboxes when disired. I am unsure how to make this happen, I would imagine that it will require vb code which I am only just begining to learn.
Thanks for any help. :)
I have attached a screen shot of the Form in question. Please Ignore the entered data it is random test data.
I'm new to access. I have created table with following fields.
ID No, Name, Address, Gender, Favorite Food
I want to create form to insert data into tables. I have used option buttons for Gender and Check boxes for Favorite Food. But data didn't insert to the table specially option button and check boxes data didn't insert but other data successfully inserted into the table.
So I am building a database to track PTO. I already have a form set up with an append query but what I want to do it use a list of check boxes to create mass appends incase a large group of people leave, Holidays, etc. Instead of having to do them individually.
I have a database that involves a lot of data about ppl and I'd like to prevent duplicate entries.
I have a form that gathers data. I'd like to have a button after name, surname and birthday are written.
A click on the button would display a msgbox that says that person already exist, maybe even with the added - edit the old entry/add new record anyway/abort options.
Enforce referential Integrity and Cascade Update Related Fields
Thus, it is possible to change the name of the state or city, but can not be deleted until the state is associated with some of the city.
I also made a form for the "state" in which is the list that contains a list of all states. The name of the list is "lstState". So that I can delete the "State" I make a button in form and I use the following code:
Code: Private Sub DeleteState_Click () If IsNull (Me.lstState) Then MsgBox "Select the state you want to delete", vbCritical else DoCmd.SetWarnings False
[Code] ....
Everything works fine when the state is not assigned to any one city. But the problem arises when trying to delete a state which is assigned to the city, that is when I select this state and click on the delete button then the state is not deleted - this is ok, but without any message told why the state is not deleted and that's the problem.
My question is how to make the code that the user receives a message that such State can not be deleted because there are cities that are associated with it.
I need to create a record of Users. I created a form with fields containing Username,FirstName,LastName & Email Address wherein the UserName is equals the value of the fields FirstName & LastName. I have a save command button and when I click it, I want it to be able to check if the new entry has a similar UserName that exists in the database, if it exists then it will allow me to edit the UserName and then save the data otherwise will allow me to save it.
Could someone give me a few pointers on how to create a 'Browse' button on a form with the intent to search for an image in an bound-image to record and assign it and store the bmp selected by the user from the user's machine?
I would like to create a button with a macro that will bring up a blank form to create a new record (as opposed to going directly to the datasheet table). There are options to Save a Record, Refresh a Record, Search for A Record, Delete a Record and Show All Records, but I don't see a macro to create a new record.
I have a contact list db that displays in datasheet view on startup. I also have an alternate form that displays in datasheet mode that i want to be able to toggle to with a click of a button. I would like the button to appear at the top of the default datasheet form, that will allow a user to toggle to the alternate form when they need to.
I know this has probably been gone over, but I'm just looking for a super-simple way to put a button on my form that will create a number of records equal to the number of days in the month listed in a field. For instance, if MyField is "4/1/2015", I'd like the system to create one record for each date between 4/1/15 and 4/30/15.
I have scoured the forums, and I find many threads on creating multiple records, but none of them deal with the same type of thing I need. I have a field, called MyField, and I have a table called MyTable with a column called MyDate. I want to enter a date into MyField, then click a button, and the button will run code/macro/whatever that will create multiple rows in MyTable, one for each date in Month([MyField])
I have created a form and housed in the form is a combo box that pulls info from managers I work with. I want to create a command button that I can click to send them an email. I have their information tabled and then have also converted that table into a form. I have their email address I just need to know how to properly code the command. I have no visual basic experience. I have had classes where I've coded in C++ and HTML but very limited.
