We have a ComboBox on a form with the months: Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, etc.
We have fields in a budget table named: Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, etc.
We want to create a query that pulls the correct field based on the value in the combo box.
This is what I have that doesn't work:
MyField: [Query1].[SumOf] & Forms![Main Menu]![test]
How to do this?
I created 2 combobox that list specific table in a data base. I want to create an unmatched query based on the selection from those two combobox.
All field in those table are the same.
Hi,
I wish to use the results of a crosstab query in another query which will make table. The trouble is the field names are not always the same in the crosstab.
The results are coming from a normalised table so if there are no records for a particular field then that field will no appear in the crosstab.
I need to make my 'make table query' (qryTabletImport_CollarMakeStaging) account for the missing fields names when it tries to make the new table. Since I have made the make table query with all availble field names I get this error when some are not present.
<the jet engine doesnot recognise 'qryTabletImport_CollarConvert.Hours' as a field name or expression>
(because the field Hours doesn't have any data in the normalised table)
make table query - qryTabletImport_CollarMakeStaging
Crosstab query - qryTabletImport_CollarConvert
normalised table - tblTablet_HOLEDETAILS
Hope this makes some sense to someone.
I am ok with vb so am willing to go that way but getting my head around which way start is another issue
Cheers
Hello All,
How can I create reports in Access based on dynamic queries? I did a lot of search on this but couldn't find anything reasonable.
Any help to get me started will be extremely appreciated.
Thanks
I have a report that gets its data from a query. I need the query to run before the report based on criteria based from two combo boxes on a form.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat I am wanting is to be able to build dynamic form content/elements based on entries on a table. This is for a gym membership system. What this form is going to be used for is to allow the front desk to scan a membership card which then performs a search on the database. Part of this search is going to be on a table that contains various add-on classes, tanning sessions, etc that a member can add beyond their base membership.
On the left side of the form, I will display a picture of the member and their name. What I am wanting to do on the right side of the form is to build a dynamic list of the add-on perks they are enrolled in.
I know I could hard program elements on the form to be visible or invisible, but that would be static and leave gaps when I have to turn things off b/c that member isn't enrolled in that class, etc.
Is this even possible with Access and VBA? I know I could do this sort of thing with a webpage using PHP, PERL or whatever. I don't know the limits of Access Forms and VBA.
How to get my query to run from criteria based on a combobox from another table. I have a field "prac" that has entries such as JF, MG, PM, RJ etc.
My query has the criteria for prac as [Forms]![PracReportPrint]![PracChoice].
PracChoice is the name of the combobox.
If I specify a valuelist for the combobox the query works. I created a different table just for a list of practitioners that contains only an index key and practitioners (JF, MG, PM, RJ, and so forth). When I set the combobox to table/query and select practitioners from my other table I get the correct list,b ut the query doesn't seem to detect what is selected from the combobox.
I have a combox with the following query in its RowSource: SELECT [Error Codes].[ID], [Error Codes].[ErrorCode], [Error Codes].[Active] FROM [Error Codes] ORDER BY [Error Codes].[ErrorCode];
I now need to change the query's Rowsource via code and so far I have figured out that this works:
Code : Forms![frmAcceptReturn].Form.cmbErrorCodes.RowSource = "Select ID, ErrorCode FROM [Error Codes Missing]"
However, the table "Error Codes Missing" also has a field called "Active" which I need to take into account; If the error code is not active then it should not show up in the combobox.
I know how to do that in the original RowSource, but how do I do it with code?
Sometimes i have a problem with dynamical queries. For some of these i need to put in the same parameter value two times, before it works. Why this occurs?
View 2 Replies View RelatedRight now I have a subform with a combobox that pulls it's data from a table. I want the user to either select an existing item or type in a new item and have a macro create the new table row. What I have right now works in the sense that it prompts the user if they want to creat a new item and the new item is created (and I can see it in the combobox list), but I'm still getting an error saying that the item does not exist in the table forcing the user to manually select the newly created list item they just typed in.
Code:
Private Sub MaterialCostCode_NotInList(NewData As String, Response As Integer)
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
'Update value list with user input.
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
Dim bytUpdate As Byte
[Code] ....
It appears that the new item doesn't always show up automatically and requires the form to be refreshed, so now I need to figure out how to get it to consistently appear right away without a refresh.
I have a dynamic cross tab query - thus the column headings will change each time it is run.
At present the column headings are displayed in alphabetical order - how can I change this so they are based on a different order - eg by the descriptions corresponding ID
I have a form that shows a list of all of my records in my database. I want to be able to click a button called "Report" and have that print a report that has all the records I have filtered on my form. I have a report in the format that i want it in, however, currently it prints every record and not just what is shown on my form. (The form is dynamic and I want the Report to be dynamically based on the form) HELP PLEASE!
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to use a combobox called Manufacturer to select which table the combobox called Model gets it's rowsource from using the code below.

Hi,
I have a table that looks something like this:
Company Product Sales
1 A 5
1 B 2
1 C 7
2 A 8
2 B 1
2 C 2
I want a query to produce a table showing Products A though D which is
the sum of Products A and B. Result:
Company Product Sales
1 A 5
1 B 2
1 C 7
1 D 7
2 A 8
2 B 1
2 C 2
2 D 9
I have many rows and many summations and the current union query and
supporting queries are pretty messy and not easily changeable. What
I'd like to do is have a third table which would hold the summed
product names and the formula used to get to it (Product D, A + B) and
have a query that can be dynamically based off of that table. Do I
need to use VBA? Does anyone have a better idea? Any help or even a
good search term would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Hello.
I am trying to make an invoice sheet in Access 2000.
My program consists a Order Sheet (frmOrder2), Delivery (frmDelivery) Sheet and a Invoice Sheet (frmInvoice).
All three are linked by DoNo.
The DoNo is made by frmOrder2.
I have a form that is called frmInvoice and a subform called subInvoice.
What I basically want to do is, to get the subform (subInvoice) to show records depending on the selection in the combobox DoNo in the main form.
subInvoice should show the Items, UnitPrice, Amount, TotalPrice, Remarks. These Items should show the records of frmOrder2.
I am kind of confused and totally lost, because I have no clue how to start!
And I am quite a beginner so, bear with me! Thank you!
I have three different forms.
1. form is a Login form where i choose between: AA, HH or FA
After choosing on my first form second form opens.
Now my question - how can i do the following:
Based on the combobox in form 1, my button i form 2 will either open form 3, 4 or 5...
Hi,
I currently have a form that creates a report based on a query that takes in a start date and an end date.
What I would like to do is to create comboboxes that will let the user choose a month and year for the report.
Is there a simple way to choose an entire month in access? I've tried using the Month() function to no avail.
The SQL statement for where I select the start and end date is below:
WHERE ((([tblData].[EntryDate])
Between [Forms]![frmByRange]![BeginningDate] And [Forms]![frmByRange]![EndingDate])
Any help would be much appreciated!
I have a form named form1. In the form I have two unbound text boxes formated as general date; startdate and enddate are the text box names. In my query criteria for the ContactDateTime field I put the following code
Code:
[Forms]![Form1]![StartDate] And [Forms]![Form1]![EndDate]
When I run it I don't get any results. So it runs but no records come up. I have about five queries that run when I click a button and I want to be able to just select start and end dates once on the form and have all the quieries run.
I am unable to get multiple search output using the below code in queries, the search text is based on form :
Search form name : Find
Query name : Search
Table name : Sheet1
[forms]![find]![city]
The above works fine if it is only used in one of the fields, but as soon as I have it in multiple fields the output is null.
I am aware that i can used Like "*" code, but the thing I want to find records which are perfectly matching based on the form.
I would like to set up a picture in the form that changes based on a combobox selection, for example if you select from combo box list "design1", a picture that have a name : design1 will appear as a background to the form ..
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a split form that was not made by wizard. On the form part I have a combobox that is unbound to the form data set. The combobox has a query row source that is based on the current row selected. I want the combobox to have an up-to-date result based on which row is selected.
If I set the combobox to requery in the form_current event then I get what I want. I don't want to put up with the little delay that is generated every time a user changes rows because of the requery, though. I only want the requery to happen when they use the drop-down menu.
I have the requery in the gotfocus event of the combobox on the form. I mostly get what I want this way, however if they select an item in the drop-down list, then choose a new record in the datasheet, then try to use the combobox again, the combobox is not refreshed (because it never lost focus?).
To get around this, I've tried to setfocus to something on the form in the on_current event, but access gives me an error: 'Access can't move focus to the control btn_Refresh'.How can I get the combo to requery only when users are about to use it?
Using Access 2007. I have a form (Broker), with a combobox (cboClassifier), that I use to select 1 of 4 phrases, display the selected phrase and color the field with a color that I've assigned to each phrase.
Next, I have a report that contains all of the Broker names, addresses, etc. based on a query (qryBroker). I need the vba or whatever that colors the matching records based on the phrase selected by the combobox on the form, when the report is opened.
What I want to do is set the criteria of a query to the value on a form if the form is open, and set it to a different value if the form is closed. I tried using a function on the OnLoad event of the form to set a variable called IsOpen to 1 if the form is open, and reset that variable to 0 when the form closes, but when I tried using the variable in an IIF statement in the query criteria, I got a "Its too complex" error.
Here's what I really want to do. I have a very complex form with multiple tabs and subforms. The subforms populate based on a query of what is selected and loaded into a textbox control on the first tab of the form. The first tab has a subform that is based on the main table. Rather than recreate that form, I want to copy it and change the rowsource on the first tab to a subset of the main table, and tell the query to use the textbox on the new form so I don't have to go and replicate all the other subforms. Is there a way to do that or am I just screwed?
I need a query's field to change to what is selected in a combo box.
Example,
I select product 1 in the combo box on a continuous form, after the update there is a requery. The form now displays the data from product 1.
I have tried putting [forms]![form1]![combo1] into the field box of the query. But this only makes the form display "product 1" in every row, it does not take any data from the table.
Hi, hope this is a reasonable thing for semi-beginner to intermediate person to do.
Our MS Access 2000 db shared on a server stores projects, categories of projects, clients, contractors doing the projects. Contractors are offered projects within their chosen categories based on their order on the list (last company who was offered a contract goes to bottom of list, like that).
Currently we print out a phone list of the contractors (in desc. date order of the most recent offer accepted or refused), then we phone down the list until someone accepts. Later we enter all those offers in order on frmOffers to store the date & time stamp of that offer.
Problem is, several contracts can be on offer on a given day, so when a company accepts/declines Project A, that company is still showing as high on the (paper) list for Project B. So when we have 3 people phoning they don't know they've offered multiple contracts to the same company this morning.
Is it possible for a form "Offers" to be based on a query that keeps updating like that? For example, you open frmProject to display details of a certain Project, cmd button to open frmOffers (continuous form, showing all offers so far with company, phone #, "accept"/"decline" & date/time stamp). Then, when you tab to the next record, can you have it show which company is next in line (even as the person beside you has updated their frmOffers in the meantime)?
Would you need to have a separate table storing only the most recent offer for each company? If so, how would you get that updated all the time?
Anything you could offer to point me in the right direction would be very much appreciated!!
Thanks,
I have 2 comboboxes, the first one is called "activity", whereby I have 3 options to choose from, and the second is called "level".
When I click an "activity", for example Drawings, I want the "level" combobox to list a unique set of options for that category. and if I click on a different "activity" for example Planning, I want the "level" combobox to show a completely different set of options.
If anyone can give me any help on how to do this then I would be very grateful!!
Thanks
Angela :eek:
