I have 2 tables and a query to show the details of both tables on a form for an attendance database. The idea is that whenever someone is absent they have a record created.
tbl[Staff] has the following fields StaffID,Name,Team,Job Title
tbl[Absence] has the following fields StaffID, abStartDate,abEndDate,abIssue
I can set up the query to find the member of staff by name but I want to be able to use this form to add new records to the Absence table for each individual. eg I use the query to search for "Joe Bloggs" and the form shows the details from staff table and then use the form to add details to the Absence table.

I am trying to create a form with a button attached to each record that would allow the user to click the button and it would automatically open outlook and fill in the TO:, SUBJECT: and BODY: fields. Here is the code that I currently have:
Code: Private Sub Command33_Click() Dim strEmail As String Dim strMsg As String Dim oLook As Object Dim oMail As Object Set oLook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Set oMail = oLook.CreateItem(0)
[code]...
There are two issues I keep running into:
1. This code opens outlook and populates all of the fields but pastes the email incorrectly. Instead of pasting just the email (email@email.com) it pastes the html tags as well (email@email.com#mailto:email@email.com#) which means that the user would have to delete everything between the #'s in order to send the email every time.
2. I currently have the email BODY pulling from a table but this obviously limits what I can do. I would like to simply encode the BODY within the VBA code. The setup I am looking for is: one paragraph a blank line a hyperlink to a website a blank line another paragraph
I want create a query that adds a field called DATE to my existing data. I want every record to have a date of 1/1/2011 populated in it. I need it to have date formatting so that I can add/subtract other dates from it.
I have small database in ms access which i am using for invoice creation. When invoice is created i save it as PDF. I would like merge another single Page PDF along with the report as 2nd page so end report is 2 page PDF.
Second how can i get 1 PDF from 2 ms access reports.
Now the "User" table has the ff. fields: ID(auto num),FName,MName,LName,User,Pass,Type.
Now what I want to do is, if I add a new a record in the table "User" and if the record has the data "Admin" in the field "Type" then the record should also be saved in the table "Admin" but if the data is "Teacher" or "Pupil" then it should be also saved in their respective tables.
On our main menu table, I only want to be able to add one record.
On the form that I have linked to this table, should you press the tab key to go through all the items / buttons, it opens a blank record screen. However, I do not want this. Any ideas?
Hi, I am trying to run an append query, but instead of appending the whole table, I would like to only append a single record.
I have an append query, and it works like a charm. I can also get it to work with prompting the user for a parameter (in my case LeaseId which is a primary key). When the user is prompted and enters the LeaseId it only appends the single matching record. Works like a charm.
However, I don't want to prompt the user for the paramater. I want the user to generate the LeaseId based on the selections in two combo boxes.
So far the I do get the right LeaseId, but I have no idea how to actually pass the LeaseId to the query. I've tried the following, but I know it's completely wrong.
I am trying to make calculations at a single record level. I have many products and I want to select only 6 of them, which I just found out that I can do it by their SupplierID. then I have a query that finds the amount of pcs that I have for each product. The aim is to determine the final weight of this 6 products. So to start I need to find the weight of each individual product by multiplying the number of pieces (from the query) by the weight of a single piece. Obviously each product weights differently, and at the end I need to add all the weights of the individual products to make the total weight of the 6 products.
don't know how to approach the problem of selecting a single record. And also I don't know what would be best to do it in a query, a form or a report.
I'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.
I have a form NoWorkOrder, i have attached a command button to Print Report. The report is named No Work Order. When I'm viewing that a record in Form View and click the command button i want only that record to print out onto the report.
So I have a list of jobs and each job is subject to change from the original plan.
Each change needs to be documented and dated. So what I want is a form where the site can be selected and a note written. When this is saved, a record of the current time would also be needed.
The form aspect of this seems fairly straight forward to me. I just cant visualise where the 'notes' will be stored.
I would like to be able to place a button on my invoice form that will allow me to e-mail the individual invoice to the person being billed (the e-mail address is included on the form). I created a macro that works to send a PDF file of all of the records and I am having trouble figuring out how to send just the current record. I would also like to have the e-mail address automatically populated based on the e-mail address on the current record.
Hi all. Using Access 2003 I am trying to figure out how to print and collate a report and an existing pdf file that is opened based on a field in the record. I figure that it probably has to do with looping through the records but I am not very good at that. So I have a form with a sub form that opens records based on a combo box. I then have a report (a checklist sheet) that prints 1 page per record. I would like to print a pdf file associated to that record before it prints the next record.
Here are the names of the objects being used: tblMoveDoc frmMoveDoc subfrmMoveDoc rptCheckList
This particular database generally looks at reporting individual records as opposed to summary reports. So for a particular data record i have the following data [x1][x2][x3][x4][x5][y1][y2][y3][y4][y5]
I need to chart (scatter) these figures as paired x,y variables for display on a feedback report such as
x1,y1 x2,y2 x3,y3 x4,y4 x5,y5
For some reason i simply can't wrap my head around haw to make this happen.
Hi I would like to exclude two specific records from my recordset.
For example suppose I have a Flights Database and I want to see all the flight records for Aircrafts 132 and 232 only, between the date jan 1, 2007 to Sep 12, 2007.
The above I know how to do achieve...
([FltNum] = 132 or [FltNum] 232) AND ([FltDate] >= Jan 1, 2007 and [FltDate] <= Sep 12, 2007)
However, among this set of records I want to exclude flight 132 on Aug 1, 2007 and flight 232 on Sept 1, 2007.
([FltNum] = 132 or [FltNum] 232) AND ([FltDate] >= Jan 1, 2007 AND [FltDate] <= Sep 12, 2007) AND NOT ([FltNum]=132 AND [FltDate] = Aug 1, 2007 ) AND NOT ([FltNum]=232 AND [FltDate] = Sep 1, 2007)
I haven't been able to accomplish this using the query grid. Is it possible or do I have to write SQL?
I've searched high and low on this forum on a step by step on how to do this and everyone's answer is either vague and assumes everyone is an access wizard, or really complex and codey and assumes every one is an access wizard!
I have a "lead sheet database" and I need to add a button on the form which emails just the contents of that current record. My company still handwrites these lead sheets and faxes them to consultants so I'm trying to bring them into the 21st century! An uphill struggle. I'm a code and VB newb by the way.
I've tried sending the form to a report as other posts suggest, but I get an error message about there being too many fields. So I'm stuck. All I need is for each form record to be emailed to a different consultant each day.
(I've had to rar then zip the database file due to size restrictions. I couldn't get the files size down enough by just zipping.)
I want to have a box with yes/no choices defining the Lessons a Student chooses. Sth like this Because the Lessons are quite plenty and they change from time to time, I don't want to have them predefined in the Sudent table, but to have a related table containg the Lessons providing more flexibility. My problem is how to assign the Yes/No values from the form to a single record. ANy suggestions? A first thought is to create a List from Lessons table, with 2 columns. 1st the Lesson and 2nd the Y/N box. Every Lesson would have a value like this: 1,2,4,8,16,32,64... With this way the sum of the Lessons would be unique for each combination and it could be saved in a single record. But such a solution is not so practical. Any alternatives?
I would like to develop a command button that archives the current record displayed in the form - my intent is to move that record from one table to another - a sort of automatic cut and paste from one table to another...can anyone help???
I use the first record of my table as a blank when the form is opened. Users are supposed to use a drop down to navigate to a record for updating. Some users have populated fields into my blank that i've had to go in and delete.
I'm wondering if there is a way to prevent that first record from being edited.
I have an access .adp project which is linked to a sql server tables (2008 r2), I have a button on an access form which I click and successfully gets customer details based on a query. What I wanted to know is when I am viewing a specific record i.e. details for Patient Number X, when I click on a mail merge button from their record form can the mail merge document only open with their details not all customers?
I have tried to delve into vba and modules to acheive this but I am a newbie.
