I'm using a lookup table to populated a combo box on my form. I use a provided list of input strings (hundreds) in my combo box and the list is provided in all caps. How can I convert these provided words (strings) to first cap from either the quarry level or form level.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have problems understanding lookup tables, especially how to populate them with data. I'm working on an exams database, and have many such tables...
Table for Students
Table for Subjects
and a lookuptable for studentsubjects
Table for Classes 1, 2, 3, 4
Table for Subjects Eng, Math, Geo, Chem... 11 subjects in all
and a lookuptable SubjectClasses
Having inserted data for all subjects and all classes, should I then go ahead and Insert data for SubjectClasses? There will be 44 items!
Even more appalling, studentsubjects table will have (no of students * 11) for my small school, it will be 1,760
I have a table holding a list of post codes, and their servicing depot EG -
ID Postcode Depot
1 AB10 Edinburgh
2 AB11 Edinburgh
Then a form, which has a field for depot ( Fld_Depot )
What i would like is, when the user clicks on the field, a msg box prompts, asking for them to input a postcode
Once the postcode is entered, it populates that field with the relevant depot from the table....
I have a form that requires at least a transaction code (from a combo box) and a total value field (numeric) to be entered.I have used the following code but when I click OK on the message box the form is closed.I want it to remain open so the user can enter the fields and properly save the record. As the code is in the Before Update event it does the same thing if I have Cancel = true.
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
' Check to make sure the TransCode has been selected and the total field doesn't = zero
'If Me.cboName.ListIndex = -1 Then
' MsgBox "A value is required for ...."
' Me.cboName.SetFocus
' Cancel = True

I have a form that collects a survey where the user selects between 1 to 9. I was wondering if the user selects a certain range, for example between 1 to 4 a yes/no dialog appears. If the user selects a range from 5 to 9 , they get no dialog box.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI want to create a text box within a form that automatically populates a contact number based on a selection from a combo box, also in the same form.
For example, I have a Bidders Table (tblTenders), this form includes information regarding the Tendor like the company name and a main contact within that company and a phone number for that contact.
I've created a separate table for all the contacts called tblContacts. This table holds all the contact information for each contact. I have a simple form called frmTenders that asks the user to input the Customer (which is the company who are bidding) and the Main Contact, which is a combo box to select the main contact from tblContacts. Below that combo box is a text box called 'Contact Number' - I want this box to display the contact number for the main contact automatically when a main contact is selected from the combo box.
The contact number text box isn't storing that information in any tables etc. It's just for viewing purposes when we need to make a call to that specific tender.
I have a textbox & button that when entered & pushed - run a query for the top values randomly depending on the value entered into the textbox.
My code is...
strSQL = "SELECT TOP " & Me.Text140.Value & " [CAN - NAME].Name, [CAN - CPT/VOUCHER].Voucher_Number, " & _
"[CAN - CPT/VOUCHER].Procedure_Code, [CAN - CPT/VOUCHER].Service_Date_From, [CAN - CPT/VOUCHER].Patient_ID, [CAN - CPT/VOUCHER].service_id, Rnd([service_id]) AS RandomNum " & _
"FROM [CAN - CPT/VOUCHER], [CAN - NAME] WHERE [CAN - CPT/VOUCHER].Service_Date_From Between " & Me.StartDate.Value & " And " & Me.EndDate.Value & " ORDER BY Rnd([service_id]) DESC "
It runs like it should but doesn't populate any records...that is until I go into the design view, deselect one of the fields and then reselect the same one - only then does it populate.
Do I need to open the query first and then update/append instead?
BACKGROUND
I am desperate to solve this problem but unfortunately I have not been able to figure it out. Below I will outline a design of a database and the desired results.
I know what I want to do but I don’t know how to do it (or whether it is impossible!)
DATABASE DESIGN
The design below is a simplified version of the real thing but it contains the essential information needed to understand my database.
Staff Data
Contains daily data for several members of staff
Staff ID
Staff Name
Date
Data Field 1
Example records:
600-001, Bob Smith, 01/03/2006, 50
600-001, Bob Smith, 02/03/2006, 50
600-001, Bob Smith, 03/03/2006, 50
600-001, Bob Smith, 04/03/2006, 50
600-001, Bob Smith, 05/03/2006, 50
600-002, Jayne Cole, 01/03/2006, 60
600-002, Jayne Cole, 02/03/2006, 60
600-002, Jayne Cole, 03/03/2006, 60
600-002, Jayne Cole, 04/03/2006, 60
600-002, Jayne Cole, 05/03/2006, 60

600-003, Alex Winter, 05/03/2006, 20
Team Lookup
Shows what team each staff member belongs to and what date this is effective.
Staff ID
Team
Start Date
Example records:
600-001, Sales, 01/01/06
600-002, Sales, 01/01/06
600-003, Accounts, 01/01/06
600-002, Accounts, 04/03/06
Please note:
The first three records show that at the start of the year Bob (600-001) and Jayne (600-002) worked for Sales and that Alex (600-003) worked for Accounts.
The last record shows that from 04/03/06 Jayne switched teams to Accounts

PROBLEM: WHAT I AM TRYING TO DO
I don’t know how to get the query “Query Assign Team” to work!!
I would like to lookup up the ‘Staff ID’ and ‘Date’ in “Team Lookup” and return the appropriate value for ‘Team’
If the only two records in Tbl Staff data were:
600-002, Jayne Cole, 03/03/2006, 60
600-002, Jayne Cole, 04/03/2006, 60
I want the query to return:

Can anybody help me?
Should I be using DLOOKUP? If so, how?
Is VBA the only way around my problem? If so, can you tell me what it is?
Am I attempting the impossible?
I just started a new database and I'm new at this so I have a question about ID numbers for my two tables.
In Table1, I have faculty demographic information, and a FacultyID (unique ID number created by AutoNumber).
Table2 has the courses those faculty members taught - one faculty teaches many courses. But this table does not have the FacultyID that I added to Table1.
So, how do I automate the process of looking up the FacultyID number from Table1 and adding it to the currently blank FacultyID field in Table2? Theres hundreds of records and this will be done every semester, so I need an automatic way of doing this lookup.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
I have a database that has 2 tables. Table A and Table B. Table A is my primary table. On this table I have 2 fields. The first field is a LOOKUP Field that looks up information from Table B and displays my selection in the field on Table A. Then using DLOOKUP I automatically input the information in the Second Field on Table A based upon the selection from the First Field.
This is working mostly correctly. However, the problem is, when I click on the next record in the table, it automatically changes the Second Field on that record to the same value as the record before it and continues this trend each time I click on another record. This occurs without me making a selection in the first field. If I make a selection in the first field it does change the Second Field to the Correct Value, but then the next Record has the same issue.
How do I go about fixing this so it doesn't change the value with the change of the record. Only change if I change that particular field within that 1 record?is there a way to restrict the Value's in my lookup field to only include the Values from Table B that aren't already in Table A?
I have a small database with 3 tables.
tblBilltoCustomer
Fields - Key - BillCustID , companyname, address1, address2, city, state
tblOrders
tblCustomers
I have a form that has tblCustomers as the main form then tblOrders as a sub form.
I want to place a combo box on the form that will lookup a company name from the tblBilltoCustomer table then brin in the address1, address2, city,state , into the form for that record. But then I need that same info to print on a rpt.
I can get the lookup to work using =cboCompanyName.Column() but the addresses , city and state will not show on report
Is there any good samples of lookup fields
Any Ideas are greatly appreciated

II have been working in Access 2010 and by no means would I call myself an expert. I have two different tables, one is called 'JobsList' and the other one is called 'StatHolidays'. On the Jobslist form, I have a field that requires a ship date, however, I don't want to allow the user to select the dates listed in the StatHolidays table. Is there a way that when a user picks a date that is listed in StatHolidays that a pop up box will say "This date is Christmas, do not choose this as a Ship date". The 'StatHolidays' table has a field for a date and for a description of the holiday.
View 7 Replies View RelatedThe Lookup table has two fields containing values that are needed: Description and Amount ($). In the table that uses the Lookup, I'd like to have both values shown, but have a dropdown just once. In other words, when the user selects a description (the dropdown shows both the description and amount), can the amount be inserted into an Amount field as the description is done currently.
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
Is there anyway to have a single field in a table which is populated via the use of a lookup onto another table, but allowing multiple value selection out of the lookup table and populating those into the field...
For example
Table 1 is customer details
Table 1 field 3 = areas of interest
Table 1 field 3 is populated via a lookup into Table 2 interests
Table 2 has 4 records
Sport
Household
Motoring
Family
I want to be able to select 1 or more of the Table 2 values and populate them into Table 1 Field 3....
Help my head hurts....
I have two tables (Table 1, Table 2). Table 1 is blank and has the fields "Field1, Field2, and Field3." Table 2 has data and 10 different fields ("Field1, Field2", etc). I want to copy all data from the matching fields in Table 2 to the corresponding Table 1. I've tried an Update Query in design view. Did not join any records, and just a simple:
Field: Field 1
Table: Table 1
Update To: [Table2]![Field5]
This returns 0 records to update. I thought about a Make Table to override the entire Table, but that isn't working either.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am currently working on an instrument datebase, I have a mainquery that takes care of user inputs from a form. The main fields that have been queried on are Type, System, and Manufacturer and they are all look-up fields that contain some null values.
On the same criteria row for these fields, I have
Like IIf([forms]![User Interface].[qtype2]="","*",[forms]![User Interface].[qtype2])
Like IIf([forms]![User Interface].[qsys2]="","*",[forms]![User Interface].[qsys2])
Like IIf([forms]![User Interface].[qman1]="","*",[forms]![User Interface].[qman1])
qtype, qsys and qman are the user inputs from the user interface that returns look-up table values.
This works fine when all 3 of these fields are all filled out for a certain instrument. The problem arise when some fields of the instrument are left blank or is null. The instrument won't show up in a query at all. What I wanted it to do is to show everything including the ones with null fields when the user input are null or "". When the user specifies certain requirement I only want to show the ones that are not null. I understand that putting them on the same row means AND, I have tried to OR them and did not have the result i wanted.
I have a form with a text box that the user enters their name into. When they click submit a menu form is opened. I want the name that was entered to be carried over to a field on the menu form. This will welcome the user, eg: WELCOME John Smith.
Im thinking that i should use the INSERT INTO function, but im not sure of how to go about it.
I have a split database and need a field (Combo type) in the table to lookup values from a query in the front end. How do I do this as it doesn't see the querys because the front and back end are split?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a form which has a combobox called Task_Ref which looks up values in a table column.
I would like to be able to set the tickbox value of tickbox called P1 to True if the combobox contains the word "test", each entry on the combobox selection may vary such as:-
Test number 1
Yesterdays Test
As long as the word "Test" appears I would like the above to happen?
I was thinking of something along the lines of:-
If InStr(Task_Ref.Value, "Test") > 0 Then
P1.Value = True
Else
P1.Value = False
End If
End Sub
But this hasn't worked
