Hello, I have just spent ages doing searches and reading everything I can on locking. But, I have yet to find an answer as to how I can lock a specific field in a specific record.
e.g. Staff enter customer details, then at the end of the day the admin (me) checks it over and presses a big old button that stops them from locking certain fields in the current record only - they must still have access to the unlocked fields of the current record, and it must not lock any other records.
I'm guessing there's some VB code in the form of fieldname.lock = true, but then it locks the field throughout the whole table!
I want to hyperlink from a query direct to the relevant record in a specific form. I have a hyperlink field in the form which shows up in the query. When clicked in the query, this hyperlinks to the form but I cannot make it select the correct record in the form.How do I get it to select the correct record?
I have a query on a form in which I want to lock the first two rows to prevent the user from manipulating the data. The user will input information in the third column.
Is it possible to access specific records from a Microsoft Access table without locking the whole table?. I have different processess accessing at the same time different records from the same table and I getting an execption, indicating the table is locked. Can any one provide me some help regarding how to access specifi records without locking the whole table in MS Access?
Is there any way other than through coding/controls I can lock specific records in a table.
I have a reference table with less than 200 records on it. 5 and only 5 records need to be locked so that they primarily can not be deleted but also so they can't be edited.
I've read about locking it at form level but that, to me, means some sort of coding.
I am new to access i have a problem which is i have made a form which contains a subform and a read only subreport, what i want is the ability to select a record in read only subreport as in the picture attached and make a button that when i press on it, it should copy the values of the itemsID field, Packing field, ContainerNo field and origin field from the selected record and then paste them in the subform below.
Also i want to add more then one item, so the when i press on another record it should paste the values below the first record.
I created a template called "AD - Assembly". In this table I have fields for:
"AD_ RecNum" - This is the auto generated number field for each record, and also my Primary Key "Document Number" - This is the number that is being assigned to each document placed in this table. (i.e. AD-0001-001) "Description" - This is the description of each of the documents "Originator" - This is who is assigning the document a number "Origination Date" - This is a =CDate(Now()) field that will automatically generate the date and time the document was assigned a number.
I then created a form called "AD - Assembly". On this form I created a field called "Last Record". I want to open the "AD - Assembly" Form, and have this "Last Record" field automatically filled with the "Document Number" filed of the last created record based on the "Origination Date" field.
Any way I can set a table up with an intrinsic limit, specifically that only ONE record at a time (this will vary) can possibly have value X selected from a lookup field containing assigned values X, Y and Z. Is this possible? If so, how do I do this?
I have an access form that needs filling in daily by various people.
It's to document changes to a website and I currently have a combobox box set up for the various sections to state whether they are AMENDS, REVERTS or NO CHANGE.
I have set conditional formatting to then highlight these sections but am also trying to get it to work so that if the user chooses "NO CHANGE" then the data for that field copies over from the previous record.
I have set this up in the AfterUpdate code for the combobox, but nothing is happening, not even an error....
Code: Private Sub COMBOBOX1_AfterUpdate() If Me.COMBOBOX1 = 3 Then Me.[FIELD_TO_CHANGE] = DLookup("[FIELD_TO_CHANGE]", "tb_TABLE", "[ID]=Forms![form_FORM]![ID]-1") End If End Sub
(Where 3 is the value of NO CHANGE in the combobox, and FIELD_TO_CHANGE, tb_TABLE and form_FORM being the names of the various elements)...
How to do an UPDATE using VBA on a form to update a specific record on the table using an unbound field on the form to filter the update.
Every time the code runs, it tells me: Run-time error '3144': Syntax error in UPDATE statement and takes me to the "CurrentDb.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError" line at the end of my sample below.
how to read a specific line in a CSV file (using VBA), to see if the phrase "There are no records available." is present.
If it is present, then I'm going to do a debug.print stating that there are no records to load - and then the script will move on to the next file. If the phrase isn't present, then I'm going to upload the file to Access, parse the information, and then upload it to a CRM. (I already have the latter portion of the code up and running....I just need to account for the first part, where I can determine if the file has data or not).
The structure of the file never changes. The first row is composed of eight column headers (Post Date, Card Number, Card Type, Auth Date, Batch Date, Reference Number, Reason, Amount) and (if) the phrase "There are no records available." is present, it will show up on the second row, in the first column (under Post Date).
I have recently been doing a lot of work on this area. Im able to export to where i want to and run macros through the VBA code inside of Access to edit the spreadsheets. This is ok if your making a new excel workbook/worksheet.
But what im stuck on is exporting to a so called template in excel. I can export to it at the moment but creating a new worksheet, in which i have to then cut and paste the data into the correct worksheets through code and then delete the worksheet that i had been working from (which is annoying because you have to confirm the deletion of this worksheet, which is why i couldnt really do the process this way).
What i want to know is there a specific way of telling the data you are exporting from a table/query/querydef to go into a certain worksheet and into a certain cell. For example; a list of names, i want all the Surnames to go into a worksheet called "Claim_Breakdown" and start from cell "A15" downwards until they have all been exported into the worksheet.
Anyone have any ideas on how i could achieve this? Thanks.
I am trying to figure out how to make a button that sends an email to a specific email address, containing the information from 1 row.
we have rows where we put the the address, the quantity and the time interval we can collect the packages in. these information have to be send to a trucking company. I want access to send an email to the trucking company's email address, and not a whole report of all the rows, but be able to choose to send row 1,2,3 etc.
so i have an interesting question and im hoping that someone can help on this one. i need to pull date from a specific table, no problem, that's written and working fine, next i need to be able to join the data from another table by a primary key, again no problem. third, i need to be able to select the date (using WHERE) for a specific date range. (i.e. i enter the date range of 01/7/2007 to 15/7/2007) and the query comes back only showing the data from that specific time, not the data from before or after. this is where my problem lies, all the entered data is being shown after entering my date range. i am going to include my SQL statement, just so you can actually see what im really talking about.
SELECT srealest.Name0, srealest.Dist1, SREpayments.Face2Pd, SREpayments.Penalty2Pd, SREpayments.[2paid], SREpayments.Face3Pd, SREpayments.Penalty3Pd, SREpayments.[3paid], SREpayments.Face4Pd, SREpayments.Penalty4Pd, SREpayments.[4paid], srealest.Map, srealest.Parcel, srealest.LeaseHold, srealest.TaxRebate1, srealest.TaxFace1, srealest.TaxPenalty1, srealest.TaxYear, srealest.BillNo, srealest.PdRebate1, srealest.PdFace1, srealest.PdPenalty1, srealest.DatePd FROM SREpayments INNER JOIN srealest ON SREpayments.BillNo=srealest.BillNo WHERE (((SREpayments.[2paid]) Between Forms![SD SRE]![Beginning Date] And Forms![SD SRE]![Ending Date]) Or ((SREpayments.[3paid]) Between Forms![SD SRE]![Beginning Date] And Forms![SD SRE]![Ending Date]) Or ((SREpayments.[4paid]) Between Forms![SD SRE]![Beginning Date] And Forms![SD SRE]![Ending Date])) Or (((srealest.DatePd) Between Forms![SD SRE]![Beginning Date] And Forms![SD SRE]![Ending Date])) ORDER BY srealest.Name0;
any thoughts or ideas on how to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated!
Does anyone know some code that will take me to the record whose field "A" has value "B"?
It sounds very simple but I can't find anything the does it!
Basically I have a table or enquiry records, some of which are related. I just want to be able to click on a button to take the user straight to the related record. The current design does this using a filter but this is pretty rubbish as it meanhs that in order to search on all records I need to select all records again first.
If DCount("[Po_Num]", "Orders", "[PO_Num] ='" & txtPO & "'") = 0 Then MsgBox "Sorry, No record matched" txtPO.SetFocus
Else
MsgBox "yes" DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmPopUp" DoCmd.OpenForm FormName:=strForm, wherecondition:=strwhere End If
End If
End Sub ------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Orders3" is the subform of Form "GoodOne" . When the user enter the PO Number in txtPo, and press "ok" , it will go to that record. BUT it just show a new blank reocrd instead.
What's wrong with the programme ??? (is it the matter of subform ?)
I have a continuous form for which the recordsource is a query that retrieves dates from 10 days in the past to 10 days in the present. I want the record with today's date to be at the top of the form. The record with the oldest date is always on top. Is this a scrolling issue? How can I get the record with today's date to appear on top?
I have a form that displays customer account information. The form is connected to two tables. each customer has their own account number that i use to lookup their information. right now i have to click on the account number field and click find to pull up the record. I have built a popup form that displays the customers names with their respcetive accounts. My question is, How can i use the popup form to select a customer name and have the main form goto that record without using the find button.
I was wondering how I could select a date for a particular field in my main form. What I'm trying to do is this: When I make a particular selection in one of my fields, I need to be able to specify a date that will be displayed on the main form, and also print on the report. I need to be able to select a specific date, and not a default date.
Hope this is clear, trying to keep it simple - which can be pretty complex.
Basically im creating a db that the company i work for will use for invoicing creating orders storing the clients we have and so on. This is my first time using access and ive been working on this project for a few months so my vba knowledge is pretty poor to say the least.
What i need is for the orders form to view the current order i have open in report format. Everything on this order form works and is linked to the invoice report that i created, i even managed to get it to print the current report. I just cant seem to get it to view the specific order im looking at, ive tried loads of things from using my crap vba to queries..
Would greatly appreciate some help on this as my boss needs this db completed asap.
Hi, I am having a problem using the combo boxe, I think it is an easy problem but I have been spending the all morning trying to find a solution with no success. i am designing a form allowing to enter the different costumer information in our system. The costumers information are broke down in 2 tables TblCostumer and TblCostumerOffice where a single costumer can have many offices across the world. The form shows the main costumer with a subform showing the different offices location. I wanted to use a comboxe on the main form allowing the user to go on the specific costumer page selected, I am just working with 2 fields for now CostumerID and CompanyName. The combo boxe is bound to CostumerID and is not allowing any change, I don't know if it is the right method because I would normally use combo boxe to change a field value not find a specific record. Should i use code in the after update event using the 'gotorecord' or 'findrecord' command?
I need to export a specific record in the table. The menu's export option only export the entire table. Is there a way to define certain record to export?
