I am using MS Access 2000 to handle a help desk system. Each job is given a task number and users are able to output a report of all of there tasks, with full notes.
What I would like to do is create a index front page or section which lists just the task numbers and the page number they appear on.
Can this be done or is there somewhere to perform a search on a report?
Basically I want to run a query that adds an index number against each record returned, however I want the index number to reset every time a name in a field changes e.g.
Date Name Index
01/01/05 Smith 1 01/01/05 Smith 2 02/01/05 Smith 3 04/01/05 Smith 4 01/01/05 Jones 1 03/01/05 Jones 2 01/01/05 Davies 1 02/01/05 Davies 2 06/01/05 Davies 3 07/01/05 Davies 4 As you can see the index is reset at each change of name.
This is a real mind bender. I am running a2k. I am merging two databases. table1 is in the backend database. table2 is linked to the second database. I run an append query to add table2 entries to table1. The append fails for 96 recs saying key violation. Turns out I can rerun the append if I drop the zip code field. I then try to manually change the zip code and receive the duplicate values in index, primary key, or relationship.
I ran a compact & repair the databases, still no go. I can't edit the value of the zip code. I import the table to a new database. Still can't change the zip code. I drop MANY of the indexes. Even the index on the zip code field. Run compact&repair. still getting the index message. I even re-imported to a new db again. Still same error message.
I may start again by importing JUST these two tables to a new blank db and see if I get the same issues. I'll keep you posted...but maybe there is someone out there who has seen this error before.
fyi-if I enter a new record, the autonumber field correctly increments to the next available autonumber field. (I say this because of another thread on this matter w/ autonumber fields and bug in A2003)
I am using Access 2010 32-bit on a Windows 7 64-bit platform.I have a database that I have imported existing data into. For the most part, I have eliminated duplicate entries in my Item Number field.
Obviously I have missed at least one (or possibly more) duplicates. When I try to create a NO DUPLICATES index, I am informed that there are duplicate entries.I am looking for a quick way to generate a list of values that are duplicated so I can address those and correct them.Item number field is a number field of type DOUBLE with 2 decimal places.
I have a situation where I have a report which I will generate to print our companies pricebook. I need an index/table of contents for customers to go to the page where a product is to look up prices. The problem is that we add and subtract products on a consistent basis.
So a new product will get added, but of course, to run alphabetically, there's no way to insert it, then renumber the pages for it to be easily found.to use a maketable query, which sorts all of the products alphabetically. Each time it is run, it will delete the previous table. I then need to have an autonumber field created to create my "page numbers". Yes, each time the pricebook is run, products can and will oftentimes get new page numbers.
So my thought is to have a macro run which creates the autonumber field to the table. This will then be the basis for the form, which will in turn utilize the "page number"/autonumber field to both serve as page numbers in the report. And of course, the table which is created each time will be the "table of contents".
I have a Summary report and a detailed report in MS Access. Upon clicking one of the records in the Summary report should open the detailed version for that record only. Lets say the Summary report has a list of employees. Upon clicking an employee record/link in the summary report should open the detailed report containing the details for that employee alone.
I have a problem with indexes in tables. I made an inventory DB where we can store items on several locations. Their are several difference items, each kind of item has his own table because they all have different fields that the user has to fill in. The only thing they have in common is the place, they're all stored in the same room, which has numbered racks and each rack has numbered spaces (for example: Sample X is in Room 1, Rack A, location B) The combination of Room-Rack-Location has to be unique, this I can do in one table by using indexes, but how can I combine the indexes of several tables? Do you think it is better to keep the track of place inside another table but how can I do this?
name/ score/ peronal best) -> logic if participant has only one score - this remains his/her first best; if more than 1 scores - then the lowest gets 1st best, second lowest - 2nd best, etc....
I have above table in access. I want to use this table in query to find value of any product using a formula (Value A*X)+Value B. The product and X query picks up from another table. The same can be done easily in Excel using Index, Match formula but how in Access.
In my first steps working with Access I feel unable to find out how can I create a report that shows the data (records from a Clients Table - Name, Phone, e-mail fields-) in a "spreadsheet like" format with gridlines. Can anyone help me on this?
I have several queries that I'd like to consolidate into one report. Any ideas? I tried selecting fields from multiple queries, but I got an error message.
I am having a DB and a report is there from query now what i want is ;
if query fields are apple, bat, cat, dog, elephant and I want in report the first three fields like apple, bat, cat to be displayed at first page then remaining on next and so on. Whereas I have a proper report header and footer which I do not want to change for any page means will remain same for all pages..
I'm having an issue trying to get a report to show a single customers' data on one report. The way I am doing it at the minute isn't really a way I would like to do it, using a query to create the report, but I don't know how to do it via a form. Basically when I do it at the minute, it will create an invoice... but with every customers' data on the same report.
But what I want to do is have it so that when I create a new record in a form, when I press a button it will create a report with just the information in that form and the details of the customer (as the form only uses the customers' ID)...
1Create a report called rptCustomersByGender. The report should:
a.Print your company's name at the top of the first page only b.Print your data labels at the top of each page c.Group your data by gender d.Display all the customer information in the detail section e.The customers should display in ascending numerical order by Last Name f.Below the list of Female customers, it should say: "Total number of Female Customers:" and then the total number of female customers should display. Do the same for the male customers g.The page number should display at the bottom of every page h.The list of Female and Male customers should each print starting on a separate page. i.Make sure the report runs without producing any errors and looks professional.
I created a report and grouped it by gender but I can't do step F. creating two different labels for each group..
I want to be able to have a report automatically generate at the beginning of each month and save it as a PDF file and have that report saved to my access database.
I have a report that contains game and its rating, the rating goes from -10 to +10, I would like to highlight the games that have a rating 1 or more with green color, rating 0 with yellow, and -1...-10 with red color, allso I would like to make a link on the game, so that when I click on it, it will open a form where that game is registered, for example it I want to change rating.
I have a database in MS SQL. The users connect to database via MS ACCES ADP applications.
Some tables (like a TV Station or Names of employees) in the database have fields that serve as the flags. If the flag has a value of one, then such a record is used in the query to create a report.
Because there are multiple users of the database, frequently happens that flags overlap. One user sets the flag to one, and second sets the flag to zero. Therefore, it often happens that the received report incorrect.
I'm working with getting a 3 page report to print/create PDF of the 3 pages. Right now I have the formatting set up for the 3 pages but each is an individual report.Is there a way to combine the reports into a single report? I've been messing around with subreports but can't get it to display correctly.
I am creating a database to store patient ultrasound reports in a clinic. The form I've designed contains a single patient's report with various values and measurements. I need a button on that form that opens a report showing ONLY THAT PATIENT'S data.
So, for example, if I've opened the form (AbdomenForm) on patient with ID 4, when I press this button, it should open the report showing only patient ID 4's data.
I can get it to work manually by creating a query (AbdomenQuery) that contains 4 in the criteria for ID (my table's primary key). Then I made a report (AbdomenReport) that uses AbdomenQuery as its data source and everything turns out well.
Now, how do I go about making a button on the form so that when patient ID 5 is open, that button opens the report for only patient ID 5? What code should I use and where should I put it?
I have a query which displays only the records that match the criteria in the form given before. Now i want to create separate report for each of these records. How should i go about with it? I don't want a seperate form for this purpose, is there any way to do the same with a macro?
I have a master recordset containing sales data for numerous products. I'd like to create a dynamic "dashboard" (i.e. a single report or form that the user can interact with dynamically) where the user can click a product name from a ListBox and see a summary report generate in the space below. If they click a different product name from the ListBox, I'd like the report space to automatically refresh and show the next summary report.
I've created my desired report and dragged it into the form but I'm having trouble embedding it dynamically into the form: I tried using the "Link Child Fields"/"Link Master Fields" properties, but get an error message saying I can't build a link between unbound forms. Here's a screenshot what I'm trying to accomplish...
I have a database that I created that uses a form to fill out information about server builds. I contains information about who built it, the IP address, server name, etc. I want to be able to create a dailog box that allows the user to input a server name to query the database and create a report based on that input. And if the user input isn't found in the database, a dialog box comes up with some sort of error message. I am still pretty new to Access, so the more detail you can give me the better. Thank a lot.
