Hello everyone. I hope you are well. I am new to this forum and need some help with access.
I have a database which records an organisations addresses. There is the main address, where the activity takes place, and then there is the postal address, which is often different. What I want to be able to do is to select all the organisations in one town (e.g. Town1), but send information in the post to their postal address (Town2).
Is this something that can easily be done? I hope somebody can help me (especially with some user friendly terms).
I am running a query which uppends the record to one table from another table. My requirement is that, it should check one field of the destination table table before inserting the record. If that field matches, it should run Update query or else it should run Insert Query. How Can I do that?
I have a list box that pulls data from a form. It pulls ProjectID and ProjectName. I want to be able to select one of the ProjectName(s) from the list and have it take me to a form for that ProjectName. I have one form for all the ProjectName(s), and want to be able to simple select one of the ProjectName(s) from the list and have access bring me to the right page of the form. Please Help! Thanks!
Hi, I would like to have a dialog box open when the user clicks on a command box so that they can choose the file name and the directory where the exported excel spreadsheet would be saved. Does anyone have any ideas? Btw, my code to save an excel automatically is below and I would like to use code.
I have a database with information on carriers, lanes, and prices. I need to choose the cheapest 3 carriers for each lane. The lanes are either 3-digit zip code to 3-digit zip code or state to state (410-300 or CA-GA, etc.) So for each of these lanes, I need to find the 3 cheapest carriers all in one query. So the resulting table should look like:
ok this is weird post but im wonderin how to go about it easily cause i can think of a few ways, dunno if they will work of not, so im asking for ur opinion. I need to find out possible cominations for a salary cap football league based on dollar amounts for the players and points based on last years results, yet it cant go past $100.00...so one possible choice is (QB Tom Brady $22.56 183.50 points). its 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE 1 Kicker, 1 DEF team and i have to do all 9 for it to count...so would i have to set up 6 columns, one for each position and have a way of picking 1 of A 2 of B 3 of C 1 of D 1 of E 1 of F for 1 qb, 2 Rb, etc? and have it so sum of values is < $100 and it also must add the points so i can see the best possible combination/most points i can get for $100.00...i know its last years points and this year will be diff but I am just comparing...all i need is an outline i dont need u guys to do it for me i have some experience with access...thanks for anyone who can help
I've run into a little problem while working on a electronics component database:
My plan was to use one specific table for each kind of components, i.e. resistors, capacitors, transistors etc as the specific data of each type is quite different from the other types (resistance/capacitance etc). I also thought I'd use a main form with a drop box allowing the user to choose which component to look for and then a component type specific subform to let the user make a more detailed search.
The thing is that I'm not quite sure how to call different subforms based on the drop box selection (I guess I need a subform for each type of component)? Or can I call a table with each component's specific data types and generate a subform based on this table? (I'd prefer the latter...)
To find a specific resistor you might want to specify the resistance, the type of resistive material, size and tolerance whereas an integrated circuit requires information on type of circuit, package, size etc.
All similar questions I've found relates to the use of a single, main, table only, I can't really see how to do that here...
I would like to have Access launch an Outlook email with a specific font (Arial). How could that be accomplished?
Here's my code:
Private Sub cmdEmailAO_Click() On Error Resume Next Dim OApp As Object, OMail As Object, signature As String, Email As String, FirstName As String Set OApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Set OMail = OApp.CreateItem(0)
I'm quite new to creating a database. On my navigation form, I have a dropdown list/combo box that contains up to 16 possible selections. The user should be able to select more than one item, but can't, when using the navigation form. In the man form that this 'writes to' the selections can be made, with checkboxes in front of each item in the list; but not in the navigations sub-form. the Navigation sub-form only shows the list in a column. I don't see any properties that explicitly allow more than one suggestion or restrict to only one, so am I using the correct control?
I have a form with a command button that runs a report. I have been asked to modify things and if the data in the text box is "A", run report "A". If the data is "B", run report "B" and so on.
Is it possible that two mgsbox will Show up, where the user can put in the timeperiod.
The time period would be the starting day of the contract.
It's called inception_date
Code: Private Sub Befehl1_Click() Dim xlApp As Object 'Excel.Application Dim xlBook As Object 'Excel.Workbook Dim xlSheet As Object 'Excel.Worksheet Dim rstID As DAO.Recordset, tmpStr As String Dim rstGr As DAO.Recordset, strSQL As String
I have a form for user to select multiple items from a combo box, and 18 unbound text boxes , each time user selects an item in combo and hits "add" the value appears in txt box by order, I mean select1 then "add" filling txtbox1, select2 then "add" filling txtbox2 ... and so on till we reach txtbox18, then msg box appears that he filled the whole 18 boxe. I have already done this before for one txtbox which is a very simple operation, but i cannot figure out how to do it with multiple txtboxes.
I have a combo box linked to a look-up table. There are 8 fields in the look-up table but only if one of three is chosen do I want additional combo boxes to become visible. Do I put the code in the "after update" or "on change" event of the combo box and how do I express the code-
If TechniqueCombo="caudal" or "spinal" or "epidural" then TextNeedleType.Visible=True
All I am trying to do is get a subform to requery after choosing a name from a combobox on the subform itself, thus updating the records on the subform. The main form name is "BasicTestOneF" the subform name is "ICminiBasicF" and the combobox name is "Combo4"
I have the combobox requery on After Update, but I still get the "Enter Parameter Value" popup. I've spent the last hour and a half just trying to get this simple thing to work and have gone through I don't know how many sites and forum posts, tried every combination of VBA code I've found, and I still can't get it to work.
I´ve gotten a project on my hands, making a database of different materials for CAE purposes. But im a bit confused as to which "language" to use. I´ve done quite a bit of programming before, mostly in Java. My "boss" (who dont have much experience at all in programming) feels that Excel is a good program to use when building this database. But since I will have so many different types of data to store i dont know if Excel(or Access, pretty much the same thing IMO?) will be enough. For instance i might need to store a couple of different arrays for each material along with simpler data like strings and so on. My question is this, can I make a General table containing short info about all materials and some sort of link to a uniqe table for each material? If this is possible, is it worth it? Seems like the database would become extremly large and hard to grasp in the future for someone who might want to update/add functions to.
I was using access 2000 to build a small office app. It will be on a network and will generally be used by only 2 or 3 people(max). I was wondering if the default jet technology would be good enough for this. If it isn't, what should I use? I looked at other options such as msde and ado but it's a bit confusing when you're new to this stuff.
I'm trying to create a database for a taxi-type service that runs on thursday, friday and saturday nights. My question is: Is there a way to save the database at the end of the night separate from the previous nights, and so that the database is empty for the next night, but reports can be viewed for all of the nights combined?
ok I have an access db which is all on access. the dbase has been operational now for 3 years and working well however, do to business needs and changes I'm trying to figure out a better way to collect and share data. So the backend of the database is stored on our local office server when users log on to enter or review data they must be in the local office. We now had the need to access the database remotely from customer sites. Now the way this works is we use a local dialer to connect to our company's network and then are routed to our local server (you can imagine how slow this is) it is impossible to operate the current database this way. So I have been reading different posts and different options (front page, sql, asp etc.) What I would like to do is convert my dbase to a program which can allow input and review of data both remotely and locally without a huge speed loss. What is the best approch for me?
I unticked all the boxes in the Tools > start up window. I closed my database then reopened it. Now, I can't put these settings back again as I can't see the Tools tab.
I'm by no means an expert when it comes to using access and its many controls that are avaliable to use on forms. Thats why I've come here to seek your help.
I have a database that has been created by someone who has now left the company and it needs a little work done to it.
The ideal thing we would like to get working on form, is that we would like a number of options to be greyed out and only accessable when another option is ticked.
I'm not sure how to group these options together, nor an I sure how make them active only when an specific tick box is ticked. Any help would greatly appreciated on this matter.
:o Please help... I am trying to get the following results. If the Qty is less than 99 bag 10 per, if the qty is between 100 and 999 bag 100 per and if the qty is greater than 999 bag 200 per.
