Hi, found this forum looking for an answer to this question. Hope someone can help.
I'm trying to build a database that tracks electronic components. Mostly the database tracks location movements, but also repair issues and other possible changes. I'm thinking the best way is a database that has a record for each move, and any other changes are included in each record.
My question is, is there a way I can easily have the current information be propogated over to a new record, where it could then be modified? Example: I'm looking at a record of an item that was just returned to me. I would like to click a button on the form which would create a new record, then move all currently displayed information into that record.
I need to be able to move 2 fields from the previous record to the next record. Does anyone know how to do this?
What I am doing is the following:
I have a table with 3 fields. I am using a form to enter the information. Two of the fields on the form will be information from the previous record. How can I bring that information forward to automatically be on the form and in the table?
I am trying to split a field that typically contains a revision level and a revision date in a single entry as follows:
(Rev Level) {Space} (Date: MM/DD/YY) REL 10-30-14 A 11-20-14 C 11/13/14
Note: dates use either - or / as separators. 99% of the time, there is a space between revision level and date.
Is there a simple way to write an update query to take the value in the current field, strip away all letters and spaces (but not - or /), and insert the remaining value into the revision_date field?
I am trying to create a report that has a header ( all ok ) then could have 1 or 15 detail lines ( all ok ) which contain cost for each line
then I have a footer with the subtotals of the costs and also bank details then I have footnotes
What I need the report to do is keep the subtotals, bank details and the footer notes at the bottom of the page all the time weather I have one detail line or 15 detail lines
What is happening at this time is the footer information is moving up or down depending on the number of lines I have.
When I add a record in the subform and then move to the next record whilst still in the subform, the main form jumps back to its first record? I then have to move back to the right record in the main form to update the next record in the subform.
I want to move to the next record in the subform without affecting the main form.
I have a subform with records of call details (date, time, subject) - the date and time are autogenerated and subject is a text field. After entering text in the subject field and then clicking on the close button in the main form, or clicking anywhere else in the main form, the record is saved to the table. However, if I enter text in the subject field and then move up to view previous records (within the subform) and then click the close button in the main form the record is not saved in the table. How can I either save the record before allowing the user to move to another record within the subform or before exiting the subform set the focus to the new record so that it will be saved on exit?
i have a database that holds details of calls that have been answered on the phone concerning problems with computers. details that are recorded are caller name, and date of call etc...
however, i want to know if there is a way that i can move all calls recorded BEFORE the present date to another table ( say a "past calls")..?
is there a button that i can put on my database that will run a function and move all calls recorded before the present date to another seperate table..?
I currently have a database that I had to copy over each field from another databse to create the one i have now. When i copy the records from one field over it appears they all move up three spaces for some reason is there a equation i can enter to make them all move down three records in the table?
I need SQL Statements to use in VBS code for microsoft access that will move the current record being displyed on the form (lets say the table name is called 'old') to another table called 'new'. Also the record that is being moved to the new table needs to be deleted from the 'old table'. All of this needs to be done with the click of the mouse on the 'old' form.
I have a table that’s full of records, I want to split it into 2 separate tables (identical structure but they have input masks), The input mask is set to LLL0000 all I want to do is send valid records to one table and invalid ones to the other.
I think the best way would be an update query but it doesn’t check the input mask only the validation (and trying to break the string apart using an expression is impractical and lengthy)
Can anyone think of any way of splitting this table – I’m getting rather desperate now and have been trying for over a week with no success
I have an Employee Database with a form that displays the employee record. When an employee leaves they want to be able to click on a button on the form and have the record moved to a different table. My thought was to do a append query to move the record from my active employee table to the termed employee table, but that would still leave a copy in my active table. I'm not real up on coding that much so Im not sure if there's a way to have code move a record from 1 table to another table or copy the data from 1 table to another table and delete it from the first table. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Is it possible somehow to move a record in the same table, to different row (in the form)? Or in other words, is it possible manualy adjust the position of records (rows) in a report?
I have a continuous form, where rows are filled with data (e.g. 10 rows ).Then i have report , which looks the same as form (rows, and their order). But sometimes user wants to move certain position (row) up or down, to be it on top or bottom or two places above, or below etc, of row list....is there any easy way to do it? Like some button press, where you could swap position with next record (next row) .....
Or just delete (everything) and fill again from beginning the way he wants...
I have a form set to the table Client Information with a subform set to the table Event Information. Client Information has a one to many relationship to Event Information.
There is a button that deletes the current record in Client Information--also deleting the related records in Event Information--then closes the form. The code works fine but a blank record in Event Information is apparently being created before the form closes.
Here's the VBA that I'm using:
Private Sub CmdDelReturn_Click() Dim CmdDelReturnMsg As String CmdDelReturnMsg = MsgBox("Delete event & client then return to front?", vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton1, "Delete and Return?")
[Code] ....
It's not a big deal because the button won't be used often and I can manually go into the table to delete the blank record. But if there's a simple solution to prevent this that would be nice.
This database will show the asset, where it is, what it is and who its with . It will display this on a form.
When this asset gets given to someone else i want a button on the form which displays the assets current data to be clicked and for that info to be moved from the asset current table into the asset history table.
Can anyone tell me how do i move to the previous record in the database using asp. i have tried the following Code:rs.moveprevrs.moveprevious hint's will also help
Here is the code I have to Update a table tblExternalIncomeSchedule
It works fine and updates the table for the first record.
How do I move to the next record StartYear 6 thru EndYear 10 and write that data to the same table without overwriting the data from the first record?
It should add 5 more records to the table
Yr 6 2000 Yr 7 2000 (since inflation = 0) Yr 8 2000 (since inflation = 0) Yr 9 2000 (since inflation = 0) Yr 10 2000 (since inflation = 0)
Code: Function FillExternalIncomeSchedule(nClientID As Long, nProposalId As Integer, nProposalYears As Integer, nRetireAge As Integer) Dim rst As Recordset Dim qdf As QueryDef Set qdf = CurrentDb.CreateQueryDef("", "DELETE * FROM [tblExternalIncomeSchedule] WHERE [ProposalID] = " & nProposalId) qdf.Execute
OK guys, ive done some searching and saw some stuff on this, but everytime I try something I get a INVALID SQL error message. So Im hoping you guys can help out cause Im lost right now.
I have a 2 tables, Training and Schedule. Training contains all the employees training records. Schedule is meant to be a temp table where the supervisors can enter the training and then once completed, can check the COMPLETED checkbox and hit the LOAD TO TRAINING RECORD command button and it moves ONLY the files for that trainee (a combo box) with a completed checkmark to the training table.
Ive tried this code sooooooooo many ways and its giving me a headache. My original way didnt work at all (had a lot of Do..Loop and With Statements, and then someone posted something about Archiving which is the code Ive gone off of now). Any help you guys can off would be awesome!

I have this database I'm working on and have a couple of issues I can't work out.
The first is this, I want to have my sub forms go to the last record when moving through the main form, currently I can only get this to work when I open the form?
If I move through the records in my main form (forward and backwards), the two sub forms go to the first record only, so how can I get them to go to the last recor?
I've attached the DB to show you what I mean. Thanks in advance Tez
I am designing a database to keep track of a state's surplus fire property to be doled out to volunteer departments as I see fit.
I have a table for surplus property that includes what department currently has the surplus property, what type of equipment it is and additional equipment information. I also have a table for "pending transfer property" to track what pieces of property I have decided to potentially assign to a fire department from the state's surplus inventory.
My problem comes when I need to transfer a piece of equipment from one department to another. I would like the surplus property table to automatically remove the property from the surplus property table to the pending transfer table so that it will not be listed on a pending transfer and in the states surplus at the same time. On the flip side, if a transfer falls through I'd like that record to repopulate in the surplus inventory again.
