Link All Tables By Special Number Will Info Auto-populate?
Aug 20, 2013
I have a few questions about tables and forms joining, and auto-population of data.
If I join all 8 of my tables one to one to one to one to one, is that possible? That is my first question.
Secondly: If I have my RSN number that I'm using to track each record, is it possible that if I type in the number on a different form, and two of the fields are similar on every form that they will auto populate since the tables are joined?
And if they're filled out in one form, they should know that these were the fields we said were attached to this number it'll just appear? Is that a real thing?
I have a text field that I would like to have some information automatically populated when the form is open. I know the basics but the trouble I am having is having the date and time populated before the default text.
Here is what I tried but no luck on it
Code: Private Sub Form_Load() Dim strQuery As String 'Dim js As Integer Dim currDateTime As Date currDateTime = Now() Me.Description = " & currDateTime & " & " " & "J.Adams 41066 CLT SMB - AM : " & " " & "" End Sub
my asset numbers look like this MIT000001DT, MIT000002DT, etc is there a way to auto populate my asset number without having o enter it. I was thinking it would look like this $$$000001$$ + 1= (new asset number)?
Hi I have created 4 tables which have 3 field common in all these tables and carry the same data value. Is it possible to enter data in the first tables and it copies to other tables automatically. After all its the same 4 data fields in these tables. Liver database Table 1. Auto ID; Surname, First name, Patient ID;-----other not common fields. Table 2. Auto ID; Surname, First name, Patients ID;----other not common fields.
I would like to know if there is any procedure to restrict/stop auto number increment for certain number of record count (say 50), then increment by 1 for next 50 records.
I have a table called Jobslog which contains records for my permanent jobs I have to do for customers in one week.Structure is like:
JobID TeamID DayName JobDescription Instructions
Each job is assigned to a team, but is following same schedule every week.Can I create like a module or query to autopopulate the table with next week jobs, but putting the date as well, not only day name.For example, each Monday job should have a date field which should be 8/12/2014, Tuesday jobs should have 9/12/2014 and so on until Sunday.Usualy they are more jobs for each day (not day and job).
Now I have created the relationships between the tables for the various ID's. My issue is the following:
I will be automating this process, so when the data is imported to the various tables, I need the relevant keys from tbl_1 tbl_2 and tbl_3 to be added to tbl_4 when the new data is brought into the tables.
As to the process of importing the data, I was looking at using PHP to facilitate this. Any ideas, help or direction would be greatly appreciated. I have looked around the net for an idea of how to solve this, but, being so new, I am not exactly sure how to word the question.
Both tables are joined with 1 to 1 relations based on apm_id as both of the fields are same. The table [APM] is pre filled with data. The idea is to list data from [APM] and collect data from user to be saved in [DATA] based on the info from [APM].
I created a form which list all the fields from both tables. The fields from table [APM] are only for displaying data and created a combo box based on [APM].apm_id to display the fields by chosing an APM ID from the drop down box.
A user adds a record and moves on to second record, completes the second record. Now if the user wants to list the first record by chosing the APM ID from the drop down box it only populates the fields from table [APM] but not the fields from table [DATA] which the user just added. Infect the fields related to table [APM] changes, but the fields from table [DATA] stays the same.
How ever if I click on the small arrows on the bottom which lets you cycle through records than it populates all the fields from both tables correctly.
How can I fix the issue so that all the fields would populate based on APM ID selected from drop down box.
First hurdle in my database tables, I have a field called Date_Created which I want populated just once, whether from a form or an import.
I have another field called Date_Updated which I want to update any time the record is changed. I know I can do this by using the default value of Now(), but how can I get the Date_Created field just to update when the record is created and not any time after ?
I also want to show these values on the form, but have them as view only, hoping that is possible ?
I would like a way to auto-generate a pdf when a user clicks a link based on available tables within my database.
Basically i have developed a pricelist database and our reps need a printable pdf version of that available items and there attributes.
I have done some research and it appears that visual studio and crystal reports may be what I am looking for. This is an access web database that is accessed housed in sharepoint.
I have with my database. It's holds cost data including purchase made in foreign currencies which need to be converted to GBP using the correct exchange rate so a variety of reporting & stats can be performed.I have a table called Costs within which there are 2 fields
Purchase Currency Exchange Rate
I also have another table called Exchange Rates 13/14 within which there are 2 fields
Currency Exchange Rate
When a value is entered in the Purchase Currency field on the Costs table (this is a look up field linked to Exchange Rates 13/14 so it shows the listed currency in drop down) I need the database to automatically populate the Exchange Rate column in Costs i.e. match the value in the Purchase Currency field to the Currency field in Exchange Rate 13/14 and populate with corresponding Exchange Rate from Exchange Rate 13/14.I have tried the following and none work:
SQL Tried
1. UPDATE Costs SET ExchangeRate = [Exchange Rates 13/14].[Exchange Rate] WHERE Costs.[Purchase Currency] LIKE [Exchange Rates 13/14].Currency
2. UPDATE Costs SET ExchangeRate = [Exchange Rate] FROM [Exchange Rates 13/14] INNER JOIN [Exchange Rates 13/14] ON Costs.[Purchase Currency] = [Exchange Rates 13/14].Currency
3. SELECT [Exchange Rate] FROM [Exchange Rates 13/14] WHERE Costs.[Purchase Currency] LIKE [Exchange Rates 13/14].Currency
I know it is possible to have a drop down for Purchase Currency which shows 2 columns (both Currency and Exchange Rate) you can then use the exchange rate figure for a calculated field. The problem I have is that I am importing data into the costs table from excel. In Excel I can only have 1 value in the Purchase Currency column on the upload template. If I just have Euro in this column the database does not match it to the Euro in the Purchase Currency drop down and also store the correct exchange rate.
Or is the alternative to put this into the calculation of GBP Unit Cost where this somehow matches the Purchase Currency in the Costs table to the Currency field in Exchange Rates 13/14 tables and uses the appropriate exchange rate from Exchange Rates 13/14 to calculate GBP Unit Cost in Costs table.
Is there an easy way to auto-populate a Junction table [in access 2010] given the following two tables with a many-to-many relationship for Tasks? The two tables are
As part of a larger multi-user system there is a time recording part with a simple table called tblTime with an autonumber field. Today at 11:45 users started reporting receiving a 3022 error. On looking at the table I noticed that if I tried to manually add a record then the ID field number inserted automatically was not the next number in sequence, but one that already existed, hence the error.
Here is my issue. In a table with an Auto Number index some records have been deleted. I have been able to recreate them along with their original auto number. The problem is that I do not know how to append these records forcing the original auto number. I have tried changing the auto number field to a number field in the table, this works except I cannot change it back to auto number.
I am sure I’m not the first with this question or issue. I did search through a couple hundred entries about auto number before I posted this question.
Using Access 2007..I have a table where the RecordID is an autonumber, and PK.To set this table up I have a load routine, (becuase I have done this multiple times for testing and further deveopment and I compact and repair the DB prior to loading) - the 690 records are correct numerically and autonumbered.This table has transactional data where existing records are updated and new records are appended.
I found the autonumber was not incrementally increasing - so no reseed the auto number (using ALTER TABLE 3IWSPLans ALTER COLUMN RecordID COUNTER (1000,1)) prior to starting the transactions.
New transactions will append correctly, up untill I amend a existing record (using a delete and append query via a staging table) - then the autonumber tries to reuse a number already in the table and because its not unique it errors.why the auto-number is not incrementally increasing correctly
Need to have a command button at form.. what i need to do is is saving a record through command button one time so produce same id for all parts like;
if i am having a field as parts and id now if i put parts as;
Parts ID
Wheel Tyre Rim
so at the time of button click (command button) the id number to be issued as same as 1 for all three parts, when adding more parts after few minutes or after the click then after addition of next parts the id should be 2 for all, means what i need is to have id number as respect of button click but once click then 1, then after =2 and so on..
When I first was making my database I used all auto numbers for PK's. But then I read an article or two saying that you really don't need to do that if you don't have to (actually, the article said "don't use autonumber if you want anyone to understand your database). I have a few tables (most employee experience type tables) where I just use the word as the PK and there is no auto number in the table at all.I continue to build my database?
There is a autonumber column in one table Order.Everyday I need delete records in Order and then append records into it.Doing so, autonumber keeps on increasing.Is there any way to reset Autonumber from 0 after deleting records?
Is there a way I can format AutoNumber for a primary key, for example, have the first ID start as C001 then for the next entry Access will automatically go to C002, and so on and so forth?
I have a table which will be completely emptied and refilled. The table has a field autonumbered it is also the primary key. When the table is refilled I want this field to start from 1. How can I do that. Yes some people will say this subject has been discussed search for it. But here the issue is somewhat different we have an existing field and I do not want to compact the database each time the procedure runs.
i have created a Union sql Table View, that i have connected to in access. Its a list from 5 different companines of Supplier accounts. I need to create an autonumber for this table? Not sure if this may be more SQL based than access
SELECT PLSupplierAccountID AS AccountID, SupplierAccountNumber AS AccountNumber, SupplierAccountName AS AccountName, 'RWL' AS Company FROM Roth.dbo.PLSupplierAccount UNION ALL SELECT PLSupplierAccountID AS AccountID, SupplierAccountNumber AS AccountNumber, SupplierAccountName AS AccountName, 'FAH' AS Company FROM FAH.dbo.PLSupplierAccount UNION ALL
I am having a table for invoicing and vouchers, and I need to have two fields that will have auto incremental numbers. How I can have two fields in the same table with autonumbers and how can I get one of them to start from a different value.
Eg. Record 1 - [inv No] 1 [Vno] 0005 Record 2 - [Inv No] 2 [Vno] 0006
