General :: Duplicate Field Message?

Jul 16, 2012

I currently have a field on a form thats indexed (no duplicate values). What I want, is if the user types a existing social in the field, that it lets them know the social is in use and that the record will not save.

I believe this will have to use the before update event for my pSocialSecurity control and that I will need to use the DCount function.

General :: Remove Rows With One Duplicate Field In A Rank?

Feb 6, 2013

I have a competition ranking contestants. A contestant can compete multiple times, each time with a unique registration number.

I am trying to sort by score to rank the contestants, however the contestants can only receive one rank - their highest score (not a sum of their scores, only one score). ? ?

Example:
Registration Name Score
2345 Sally 247
3456 George 230
4672 Sally 255

What I want to see:
4672 Sally 255
3456 George 230

Duplicate Error Message Help

Jul 6, 2005

hi,

the below scrip was taken from another forum member.

i have put this in the Forms / error VBA

but i still a little lost

i have set 3 fields to be indexed not to allow duplicate information (Forename, Surename, DOB)

i was then advised to error trap so it would highlight that i have enterd a duplicate record on typing in the DOB (As that as third feild to be entered)

so i then used the below script, however this doesnt highlight that it is a duplicate it just doesnt let me go on to the next record, the only time the error message is highlighted is when i go into design mode.

anyideas on where to go from here.


Private Sub Form_Error(DataErr As Integer, Response As Integer)
If DataErr = 3022 Then
Response = acDataErrContinue
MsgBox "Tis MerID alredy exist!"
Exit Sub
End If
If DataErr = 2169 Then
Response = acDataErrContinue
MsgBox "Tis record will not be saved!"
Exit Sub
End If

End Sub

Warning Message For Duplicate Entry

Nov 27, 2006

I have struggled with this for so long now I hope someone can help.
I have a form called frm_Collections which is run from the query (qry_Collections). When I type into the Reg field in the Form I would
like the user to know if the Reg details have already been used in a
previous record. The database can have duplicates in this field, however a
"Warning Message" would promt some investigation.
I have tried loads of DLookup on Before Update, but really need setting of
in the right direction.
Thanks

How To Change The Default Duplicate Message? And More...

Jan 14, 2005

Hello to you all, it's my 1st post here…


How can I change the default message (as you can see in the picture) that appear every time that I try to update my record?


I want to write something like "You Have to select a different Number"


And one more question, the message only appear when I'm pressing the record selectorbutton only after the user has already filled all the form) is there a possibility that I can write a code that will check for duplicate data immediately after the user typed it?

Thanks for your help

Duplicate Entry Error Message

Jul 7, 2006

Hi!

I have a form which is based on student records. What I'm trying to get Access to do is to bring up an error message as soon a duplicate student number has been entered. At present I've managed to replace the Access standard error message 3022 with my own by using the following code:

Private Sub Form_Error(DataErr As Integer, Response As Integer)
Const conDuplicateKey = 3022
Dim strMsg As String

If DataErr = conDuplicateKey Then
Response = acDataErrContinue
strMsg = "Duplicated record. Please recheck your data."
MsgBox strMsg
End If
End Sub

However the error message only appears when you try to leave the form (e.g. start a new record). I would like the error message to appear as soon as the user leaves the Student Number text box on the form. Is there anyway to do this?

Forms :: Message Box To Confirm Entry Of A Duplicate Value?

Oct 24, 2013

I have a single table in my database and I have to make a form for entering contact details for clients, staff, funding bodies and everyone else into this table. There is a phone number and what code I would use the get it to check if the number already exists.

If it does, I wanted it to return a custom message telling you what entries it already exists for by displaying certain fields so that they can be identified, such as name and organisation, but then I wanted the custom message to allow you to confirm entry of the data anyway. This is because there may have been an error in entry or as some people may be contacted on the same phone number, I want it to allow the option to continue and enter the data anyway.

Forms :: Custom Message For Duplicate Entries

Aug 5, 2015

I have tried the code below, but I am not getting what I need. I have a table [Student Info] with a field [Student ID] as the primary key and many other fields. I added the Student ID field to my form, [Student Add]. When I input an ID that already exists I get an error code as expected but then my form still loads. I currently have a second form for updating student info [Student Update] for which I have a parameter form that asks for the Student ID. I would like to use just one form to add and update students if possible. So, if you add a new Student ID you can enter all pertinent data. However, if you enter a duplicate Student ID the form should populate with that student's information.

If I must have two forms (1 to add and 1 to update) and a duplicate Student ID is entered into the Add form, the user should get a message stating that the record already exists. Then, (Option 1) force the Add form to close without saving or (Option 2) give an option for opening the Update form. Either option is acceptable at this point because I am stuck.

When attempting to use the code below, I get a data mismatch error on the "Answer = DLookUp......" line.

Here's one I use on Social Security numbers for a pop up when a duplicate....
SS# is stored in table "tblApplicant"

Private Sub SocialSecurity_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim Answer As Variant
Answer = DLookup("[SocialSecurity]", "tblApplicant", "[SocialSecurity] = '" & Me.SocialSecurity & "'")
If Not IsNull(Answer) Then
MsgBox "Duplicate Social Security Number Found" & vbCrLf & "Please enter again.", vbCritical + vbOKOnly + vbDefaultButton1, "Duplicate"

Cancel = True
Me.SocialSecurity.Undo

Custom Pop-up Message When One Attempts To Add A Duplicate Record?

Dec 27, 2012

I would like to create a custom pop-up Message when one attempts to add a duplicate record.

Currently, I have a default pop-up message when you try to add a duplicate record. I set the field as Indexed= yes(No Duplicates) which generates a default pop-up message but it is technical and wordy. I would like to be able to simplify the wording to just let the user know not to add a duplicate record.

Weird Error Message On Prevent Duplicate Name Entry

Mar 7, 2005

So now, I'm using the code below to prevent duplicate name entry and it is working great - EXCEPT when I enter a first or last name which contains a ' (ie, O'Tool, O'Malley, O'Hern)...anyone got any ideas for me on how to make this not happen?

The error I get is:

Run Time error '3075'

Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression '[Last Name]='O'Hern' And [First Name]='Lori'.

The code i'm using is:

Private Sub Last_Name_AfterUpdate()

'Check for duplicate first and last name using DCount

If DCount("*", "[Constituents]", "[Last Name]= '" & Me![Last Name] & "' And [First Name] = '" & Me![First Name] & "'") > 0 Then
Beep
MsgBox "This first and last name already exists in the database. Please check that you are not entering a duplicate constituent before continuing.", vbOKOnly, "Duplicate Value"
Cancel = True
End If

CustID_Exit:
Exit Sub

CustID_Err:
MsgBox Error$
Resume CustID_Exit

End Sub

Tables :: Change Duplicate Values Error Message

Aug 14, 2013

How to control the below message to something like this through VBA:

"The Job: " & JobNumber & " already exists in the table." or to open an alternate form where they can make the change. Allowing duplicates is not appropriate for what I am trying to accomplish. I just want a friendly way of rerouting a user to understandable answer.

instead of this:

"The changes you requested to the table were not successful because they would create duplicate values in the index, primary key, or relationship. Change the data in the field or fields that contain duplicate data, remove the index, or redefine the index to permit duplicate entries and try again."

Modules & VBA :: Error Message On Creating Duplicate Record

Jul 25, 2013

I need to be able to produce an error on a form where the user attempts to create a new user that already exists. The error needs to be produced when the save button is clicked.

See below for the existing code on my save button which exists in form, 'frmAddEditUser':

Private Sub cmdSave_Click()
If IsNull(cboManagerID) = True Then
MsgBox "Please select a manager", vbExclamation, "Details Missing!"
Me.cboManagerID.Requery

[Code] ....

Currently, if I attempt to create a user with the same Payroll ID as an existing user, my 'User details saved' message box is displayed and to the user it looks like a new record has saved successfully which isn't the case.

I need a message box to appear displaying something like "Payroll ID n already exists" where n is the 'PayrollID' of the duplicate record. (Is it possible to combine a value from a certain control and ones own custom text?)

Note: PayrollID is a combination of letters and numbers, i.e. two letters, followed by 5 numbers, e.g. JD12345.

For reference, the table/field and and control are called, '[tblUser].[PayrollID]' and 'txtPayrollID' (on 'frmAddEditUser') respectively; it is from this field and control that I want the error to be produced if the user is entering the same values which are existing in 'tblUser'.

Error Message To Display On Entry Of Duplicate Value With Two Fields As Index?

Jun 27, 2011

I was using the following code on a field (ItemCode) that was indexed to prevent duplication of records. The intent is that the user will get an error message that a duplicate exists before they enter all the data for the record and get the built in error message that Access 2003 provides when an index violation has occurred.

Code:
Private Sub ItemCode_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim Answer As Variant
Answer = DLookup("[ItemCode]", "tblQuestions", "[ItemCode] = '" & Me.ItemCode & "'")
If Not IsNull(Answer) Then
MsgBox "Item Code already exists" & vbCrLf & "Please enter unique Item Code.", vbCritical + vbOKOnly + vbDefaultButton1, "Duplicate"
Cancel = True
Me.ItemCode.Undo
Else:
End If
End Sub

Now, the index for this is based on two fields (ItemCode and Question Group). I would like to display the same message before update but don't know how to include the second field in the syntax.

General :: No More Records Available To Give Message

Dec 11, 2013

I have a table that is a list of available UPC codes that through forms are being assigned to several different tables (types of items). When the UPC code is assigned, there is a yes/no box which is checked. I need to have a message box appear when the last of these UPC codes has been used (or better yet perhaps when there are a specific number left - such as 10 - so the user isn't all of a sudden locked out of any more work).

It could even be triggered when a specific UPC code is reached - they will be in numerical order (ignoring the check digit). Is there anyway to do this globally or would the check need to be on each form as the UPC is assigned?

General :: Stop Access Warning Message

Feb 14, 2013

I have an Access 2010 db on a shared network drive. All users accessing the db are running Windows 7 OS and have a licensed corporate version of Access 2010. The advanced options "Shared", "Edited record" and "Open dabases by using record-level locking" are turned on. Additionally, the locking time limits are set to their default levels. If a user selects the save icon after making additions or updates, the following waring message appears:

Costar Job Database can't save design changes or save to a new database object because another user has the file open. To save you design changes or to save to a new object, you must have exclusive access to the file.Since I developed the db, I am the only one that makes design or object changes. I know that users don't need to select the save icon to update the db, but I don't want them to "freak out" if they select save and see the message.
Is there any way to prevent the message from being displayed?

General :: Warning Message When Deleting A Table

Feb 16, 2015

I have a temporary table within my access database. I have a macro button that makes the table (thus deleting the old one in the process) and then appends information from three other queries to it.I want to stop the standard warning message from coming up. The message I get is below. I have already cleared the action queries check box so the warnings for the making table (if no previous table exists) query and appending data query have disappeared. However the below message still pops up when the make table query begins to try and delete the old table. How I can make it go away?

"The query you are about to run is a make-table query. Unlike most queries that displays data in Datasheet view, a make-table query creates a table and copies specific records from one or more tables and queries. If the table already exists, the query will replace the structure and contents of the table.If your intention is to create or replace a table, click Yes. To avoid being prompted when you run such queries, click the File tab, then click Options. In the Access Options dialog box, click Client Settings. Under Editing, clear the Action queries check box.
