Forms :: New Fields Added To Table / Won't Look Up On Form
Sep 8, 2014
I have this table that I built a form from . I added some fields to the table, most of which are look up. I added those fields to the form.When I try to test the form those lookups show nothing.I used the lookup wizzard.I removed those fields and added new ones (same problem).I compared them to the ones that are working - they are identical.I changed the control source to one that is working - didn't work.
I have a form based on a table and I just added 3 fields to the table. When I go to the form to add these fields, they do not show up in the field list. I've also tried creating a textbox and going to the Data Tab and choosing the data source but those 3 new fields are still not showing up. How can I go about adding these 3 fields?
I have a form that has a few combo boxes that I use as drop down lists that the user can choose from. After the form is completed, the user clicks "Submit" and the query/table is updated. However, 2 records are added instead of 1. The first record leaves the first field blank and every other field completed. The second record has every field filled out with the same info as the first. In other words, the first of the 2 records is unnecessary. How do I eliminate this from happening?
Using DAO recordset, table enters unbound fields data properly for desired records, but adds an extra record which is a duplicate of the first record entered....any known access quirks for adding unwanted records?
I have a combo box that pulls account name data from tblAcctInfo. the combo box has an OnChange event which updates a textbox, txtAcctAddr.
when i have a new account that i would like to be listed in the combo box, i use a form, frmAcctAdd, to add a record to tblAcctInfo.
what i would like to do, is: 1) when i type a new value in the combo box that isn't in the list, have that string value pre-populate in the frmAcctAdd. 2) when i have added the new account info into frmAcctAdd and then saved the record, i would like the new value to pre-populate in the combo box, with the txtAcctAddr textbox also updated via the OnChange event (or maybe a different event is more appropriate?).
I have created a long version of this which requires a lot more user interaction (1-user typing in a new value into the combo box, 2-user RE-typing the SAME value into a data entry form, frmAcctAdd, 3-user saving the new record, 4-user re-clicking the combo box and selecting the newly added value) but i am trying to streamline the data entry with auto-populated fields.
I have a form with a dataset based on a table. (there are a number of buttons on the form with code so it's important I don't delete the form and start again with a new one)
The data displays correctly but the order is wrong. It displays the last record added as the first record when viewed in form view.
I want to reverse this order, how do i go about it? It seems very simple but I've yet to find a solution.
I also don't want to base it on a query because of the code mentioned earlier.
I have a totalquery that runs fine and give me the sum for both fields I'm looking for but I can't get the outputs to fill the fields on the form. I have tried the Dcount query in the control source but that just returns an error and locks up access.
Code: SELECT [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, Sum([Tble-wcDelays].HoursDelay) AS SumOfHoursDelay FROM [Tble-wcDelays] GROUP BY [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, [Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID HAVING ((([Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID)=[Forms]![Frm-ePlusCent]![cleanID]));
What's the best way to lock down form controls after the user has entered data into them? I will have a button that reads "Save Record" that will make it so the records cannot be accidentally (or intentionally) changed after the button is clicked.
I have a database created in Access 2003 about six years ago. I’m the sole user of the Application, which I use to keep track of my personal assignments and to quickly access other resources. A search form was added and tweaked over time until it contained the features I desired. The search form uses a subform to display a list of records, with the ability to click a record‘s "Edit" field to open and update that record.
In about March 2014 we upgraded from Office 2003 using Windows XP to Office 2010 using Windows 7. All users on other Applications that I’d designed and support experienced missing Reference issues, but those were resolved rather quickly. I'd been off work intermittently for about six weeks between April and July and gradually started noticing other issues with my personal assignments tracker that I did not immediately associate with the upgrade. Early on, I noticed that I could no longer delete or rename database objects on several of the databases that I'd designed and support. Eventually, I also noticed that I was unable to create new records and received SaveRecord error messages associated with the subform. I'd encountered SaveRecord issues before and went through previous steps to resolve, but to no avail. Eventually, I came to the conclusion, right or wrong, that all of my recent issues were associated with the upgrade.
I found through online research that my loss of ability to delete or rename Objects was possibly due to the loss of Object Owership and Permissions, which was associated with my Security Workgroup. I confirmed that Ownerships and Permissions had been lost and was unwilling to recreate the database, just yet. No user of other Applications that I support reported any problem creating new records.
I know now that new Access doesn’t have the Security menu item that allows Workgroup creation and joining. After months of online research and trial and error, I was directed to Microsoft Knowledgebase Article 918583, which provided VBA code that allowed me to Run the Workgroup Administrator to rejoin my previously established Workgroup.
After rejoining my Workgroup, everything seemed to return to normal. I could delete and rename records and was able to create new records. After a few days, I noticed that new records were not being displayed in the search form right away. I confirmed that the records were being added to the main table, but still not available in the search form, queries, or reports until after an additional record had been added. In other words, for example, in order to view record 1, a record 2 would have to be added. In order to view record 2, a record 3 would have to be added, and so on. This makes it very tedious to enter new assignments.
I believe the present issue is greater than my search form, because the newest record is not only not available in the search form, but not available in any other form, query, or report. I have no clue where to start.
I am trying to automatically update one table to another each time a new record is added to my form, I have tried using the Update and the Append Query is there another way to do this without using code?
I have a project which produces a report of names, addresses, etc. I added a print button to the form to send the report to the printer. The code is as follows:
Private Sub Command32_Click() Docmd.SetWarnings False 'Docmd.OpenReport "rptAddresses", acViewNormal Docmd.RunCommand acCmdPrint Docmd.SetWarnings True End Sub
Both alternatives in the code produce the same result described following.However, the printed report includes only the first 2 colums of about 10 of the 90 plus records. If I send to to a PDF, it works fine. If I do a print view on the screen ir looks fine.
My form was working fine but when I added an extra tab it started showing as completely blank in design view. When I deleted the tab I had added I still was left with the same problem!
I've attached an image of the form properties. I want to use the form to enter data so it needs to show even if there are no records.
I had read that it could be if there is no data but typing data in the tables hasn't worked either.
I am trying to disable a field in a form based on a value in a field on a different table/form. I have been able, through simple VBA code, to disable fields based on a value in the same form. Are queries/sub forms the only way to go?
I am wanting to populate a control in a form based off of two different fields in one table. Is that possible?I have a table called tblEmployeeMaster and it has a LastName column and a FirstName column in which I need to have both first and last name show up in one box on my form?
I have 6 text box on the form which are unbound. Now we enter the entry in these boxes then I have update button on the form to update the record in table. all fields should be clear after update the records in table so I can enter the new entry.
I am using ms access 2007. Is there any liberary to add?
Is it possible to have the user select which field is added to the query through a parameter? In my query I have a table where each record has a part number and has sales number for each month. When the user runs the query I want them to be able to select which month is returned.
My table basically looks like this:
PartNumber,Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May etc. 01PartNumber,15,20,30,25,28 etc. 02PartNumber,12,14,12,16,20 etc
I want the user to enter "Mar" when prompted and return the parts numbers with values from "Mar".
I have an employee and asset database. If an employee gets fired, I need remove them from the general employee records, but I want to save a record of that employee. Is there a way to delete an employee from one table and have it automatically added to another table?
I have an ODBC link in an Access 2002 d/b to an AS400 table (with the ODBC refresh interval set to 10 seconds) and as the data changes, the data in form view changes just fine and dandy, thank you very much. However, when a new record gets added to the AS400 physical file, the recordset doesnt update to show this, even if I use records>refresh. I have to close the form down and re-open it to see the new record. Is there a method to achieve this?
Hello, I have created a form to enable data to be easily added to the database table, however does anybody know why the query that looks up the records from the table does not return the new entered records, only what was originally in the table? Thanks
I created a form in Access that retrieves data from a table. Inside the form, I am able to access/populate data fields with data from the table. I also have data fields, inside the form, that requires key-in data. I have some how lost the ability send all data field information to a second table and clear existing data fields for new entry.
Questions: What settings, code or buttons can I use to send/store data field information to a new table? What settings, code or buttons can I use to automatically clear all data fields from my form once data has been sent to the new table?
I have a form that lets you add records to my table, it works well and I can see the records in my table but then once I use my search form, which also is working well, the new records won't come up when I do a search, it just keeps searching through the records that were there when I created the search form.
I have a subform that has 3 check boxes. If the record was an existing record in the SQL table and I want to change the value I can change it no problem. If I try to check the box for a new record added to the database then it doesn't allow me to save the change. I know that this is a problem with bit values in SQL when deleting so I made sure all 3 fields have a default value, but it still doesn't let me make changes to new records.
Table has a relationship with master table. Joined on TractID primary table - auto number, TractID child table - number. This works as it should when adding a new record.
What I am trying to do is create a new key for each new record added in the child table with an ID that looks like this: TractID.A, TractID.B, TractID.C etc. for each new record added in the child table. if so where do I look, how to accomplish it?
