I have users who use a form to enter data. One of the fields is "DateRange". The users tend to enter records in groups. The group of 10 records will all have the same "DateRange" As they start a new record is there a way that the "DateRange" field can copy from the prior record?
Any help would be great!
In my db I am tracking different stages for an event. I have a subform that is in datasheet view. The last field (current) is a yes/no check box that says that this entry is the current stage of the process. In one of the fields I have a afterupdate event that says me.current = true. But what I need is to change the previous entry to show that stage's current to be false.Does that make sense?Date Event Location Current02/01/07 Drying Dryer X (when next event added this =false)02/05/07 Bagged Warehouse XUp until I enter the 02/05 entry the 02/01 entry was the current stage and I want a check in the current box. But when I enter the 02/05 entry that now becomes my current stage so on the 02/01 event then current = false and on the 02/05 event current = True. I can get the 02/05 event to show current = True but how do I make the 02/01 current =False?Thanks,Rick
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am building a student register for a school for disabled children. There is a screen listing all students, one showing detailed student data chosen by #=IIf(IsNull([ID]),"(New)","Open")# clicking on "Open", one listing all the guardians, choosing a guardian by #=IIf(IsNull([ID]),"(New)","Open")# clicking on "Open", to diaplay Guardian details.
From the student list, I select and view student details, including a pointer to their guardian details. After selecting the first student details, and then viewing their guardian data, any subsequent student details and guardian details updates the prior guardian data with the next guardian's data.
How can I prevent the successive guardian details from updating the prior guardian table when it is exited? I view the guardian details using ADO recordsets populating a form. When I exit, it updates the previous record.
Hi
I am building a forecasting database that will have known amounts entered for various projects. If a project has no known future amount (lets say for next March), I want my query to calculate a projected number by taking the most recent equivilent month (for this last March,which may be a number or even zero) and applying a growth factor.
I thought to use Dlookup in this way, but it is not working:
Amt: IIf(IsNull([Amount]),DLookUp([amount],"data_table",DateAdd("yyyy",-1,[data_table]![date])=[data_table]![date])*[growth],[amount])
I have created "placeholders" for the non-existant months in a prior query (i.e. this formula should replace null cells w/ projected values only if there is no actual value)
I would appreciate any suggestions very much!
thanks
I have a main form "FrmTimesheetEdit" that I open in edit mode to review data in a query that uses two tables TblEmployee and TblTimeSheet. The TblEmployee has two fields called EmployeeID, and Employee. The Tbltimesheet table has a field "Weekendingdate" and "EmployeeID".Prior to loading the mainform I launch a form "frmEmployeeReportRange" that allows me to specify via combo box the Employee I am interested in and also the time periods I am interested in being "Beginningdate" and "EndingDate" These in turn are criteria for my query that supplies data to the main form "FrmTimesheetEdit" Everything seems to work ok.
However the first time I open the main form It open a form/window saying "Enter parameter Value" for EmployeeId, BeginningDate and Ending date respectively. Then the subform loads "frmEmployeeReportRange" which allows me to specify Employee plus beginning and ending dates. I select Employee from the combo box say "Emp1" and specify Beginning and Ending dates of 1-Jun-2013 and 30-Jun-2013. I then make the form invisible and the mainform opens up.I do this but get no records. If I close the main form "FrmTimesheetEdit" and reopen it the subform pops up as expected. It is preloaded with the data I entered the first time i.e. Emp1 plus 1-Jun-2013 and 30-Jun-13...If I leave the dates the same but select the next employee "Emp2" and them make the form invisible the mainform opens in edit mode as expected but with the records and dates specified for Emp1.
Bottom line it would appear that although the filter data is specified for the query that feeds the main form it is not requerying prior to opening the form. I have tried having the "frmEmployeeReportRange" launched as a VBA event on each of 'On Open' , 'On Load' and 'On Current' but no matter where I put it the results are the same in that the mainform is not requerying the data prior to opening.
I am posting a report to the web, in a pdf format. the issue is I have data that is hidden under conditional formating in which if it meet the criteria the font is white and background white. This is great since it shows up blank on pdf. However if a slick person takes the pdf highlights the page and transfers it to a word document, he can highlight that area change the font to black and see the data. Is there a way to hide the data prior to creating a pdf.

I have a large spreadsheet I need as the basis for an Access database.
The spreadsheet contains... Company Number, Name, Address, etc...
The Company number is consistant and always the same..
However the Name and address is different... eg LTD v Limited, ABC House v 34 High Street etc....
how I can prepare the data and get into access?
I am basically setting up a macro that will change the value for a field from "N" to "Y" for all records from a query. The macro works fine except for it does not know when to stop and gives an error message of "You can't assign a value to this object" after it has gone through all of the records and there are none left to change. The macro is set up like this:
OpenForm Action : This form is populated by the query and I set the Where condition to open records that don't already have a value of "Y".
SetValue Action : I use this to set the value of the field to "Y"
Close Action : I use this to close the form and save the changes
RunMacro Action : This is where the problem is. I use this to repeat the macro so it can go through the rest of the records that still have the field set to "N". I need to set the Condition or Repeat Expression so that it checks if all of the records have been changed. It either needs to check that all records have the field = "Y" or check that the macro is on the last record. Basically something that will cause the macro to not open itself again when there are no more records to be changed.
My query has the fields setup ID, Date, Session, Value.In a report I am trying to create a bar chart that shows session names on the y axis and values along the x axis. I want to show 1 chart per ID.However, when I run chart wizard and create my chart I am getting charts for each ID repeating by the number of sessions (number of records in my query).So for example with 3 sessions im getting:
ID: 1 - Chart
ID: 1 - Chart
ID: 1 - Chart
ID: 2 - Chart
ID: 2 - Chart
ID: 2 - Chart
ID: 3 - Chart
etc.
Where the chart is setup the way I want it, but it repeats for each session.how I can get the report to show 1 chart per ID?I tried grouping by ID but didn't seem to work
Here we go again i have another problem.
I am finding it very hard to explain my problem so i have attached a copy of my database:
Have a look at NUMBERPLATE OPTIONS in the booking table. When you click on this field you have to type in the END DATE and the CAR TYPE to generate a list of numberplates that can be selected. This END DATE and this CAR TYPE have already been enetered into the BOOKING TABLE for this particular record. Is there anyway of repeating this data entery?

I have a table like this
Stuff.
ItemNo Name ImageName
123 Foo 00123.jog
123 Foo 00FOO.jpg
123 FOO FOO123.jpg
456 bar 00456.jog
456 BAR 00BAR.jpg
456 Bar BAR456.jpg
...
I want to do a query to return just one row per unique ItemNo
So the query would return
ItemNo Name ImageName
123 Foo 00123.jog
456 bar 00456.jog
I don't care which one it grabs, the first is as good as the last, as they are essentially different names for the same thing coming from different systems.
I know there's gotta be an easy way to do this, but I've tried things like TOP, DISTINCT, etc and none of them work for me.
I have SQL query/dual sub-query in MS Access that is returning data from the left side of the query FROM correctly, but is only returning one record from the right side of the query FROM. Furthermore, it repeats the display of the one record and it repeats the entire results set with a different one record each time until all the records have been displayed. I expect that problems described as "Furthermore" will not exist by fixing the one record issue. I have tried using all the join types available in MS Access, but none change the result.
The desired output is:
Yellow Blue
11/23/2013 11/19/2013
11/19/2103 10/01/2012
10/01/2102 10/08/2010
10/08/2010 12/14/2007
The actual output is:
Yellow Blue
11/23/2013 11/19/2013
11/19/2103 11/19/2013
10/01/2102 11/19/2013
10/08/2010 11/19/2013
11/23/2013 10/01/2102
11/19/2103 10/01/2102
10/01/2102 10/01/2102
10/08/2010 10/01/2102
The same pattern is repeated 2 more times with Blue values of 10/08/2010 and then 12/14/2007.
Here is the SQL:
SELECT Long_List.Yellow,Short_List.Blue
FROM
(
SELECT DISTINCT BirthDate AS Blue
FROM (
SELECT DISTINCT BirthDate FROM citizens
UNION
[Code] ....
I have read lots about importing files but can't find anything on how to handle importing data that repeats itself in blocks from with in a txt file.
Note that I intend to run the import as an event each time the db is opened.
the data is an audit log that looks like this:
Date: 12-01-2004 Time: 11:16:57
Transaction #: 061318 Cashier ID: NB

Computer: COUNTER2
Deleted All Lines From Transaction

Whats the best way of doing this.

and I have several queres using the same table. I was trying to add 2 columns and fields to my 1 querie. I do not use program much but I have it for my cattle. SO I was clicking around. Went to Table and went to add the field.I changed my Primary Key field then realized I should not have done that.I changed it back to "ID" and "Number" and added my fields. THEN I went to the one querie and added my columns and fields.However NOW the one querie I messed with has 30,888 rows as it just repeats the 20 or so rows over and over .The other queries do not and they use some of the same data "ROWS" from the table
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello. I am looking for a way to make a field value automatically default to
the value of the immediate prior field. For example, I am in record 11, and

I am creating a database for a hyperthetical car hire company.
I have a field with a lookup/query. The data that this query searchs for is entered into my table/form already. Is there anyway of avoiding repeating this data twice?
Iain
is it possible to repeat a query on data returned by the same query while returning it to a single table?
i have a query that runs on the following info:
PartNumber - the part number of an item
AsmNumber - the part number of the item the part belongs to
IsAsm - true/false on whether or not the part is an assembly
(see attached database)
the current query, when 11135 is used as input, returns 11124, 11165, 11103, and 11155. likewise when 11165 is entered the query returns 11109, 11110, and 11111.
i would like the query to return 11124, 11165, 11109, 11110, 11111, 11103, and 11155 when 11135 is entered.
the sample database attached is stripped down but accurately reflects what i'm working with. i do not know how many sub-assemblies belong to a top-assembly (could be zero, one, or sixteen), therefore i think the 'sub-query' would use the 'IsAsm' value as some sort of criteria - yes?
if what i'm asking is impossible, i'm very open to suggestions as long as they work with the data given.
i appreciate any help (especially being this is my first post) and apologize for the verbose post, i'm not good with brevity.
I have an Access DB with a VB 6.0 front-end. I have a table with a PK that uses an auto-number. I deleted from data from this table in the past, then re-added it back in again just now. However, now when I go to enter a record in this table from the VB executable, I am getting an error for duplicate keys--as the auto-number tries to use a number that already exists. This happens when I just enter a record directly in the table in the DB also.

I have a form that is basically an autoform for inputting into my main table. I have one combobox that has customers in it.. let's call them a b and c. Further down is another field, called Reference. Each customer can have certain references. I want the reference field to be a combobox, in which the selection list is dependent on the choice in the customer combobox.
So if customer is a, the ref. cbo gives you the choice of 1, 2, or 3. If Customer is b, ref is 4, 5, or 6, and if customer is c, ref is 7, 8, or 9. See what I'm saying?
Sorry if it's not explained very well, I am happy to answer any questions to clarify it.
Thanks.
I am importing a txt file from a vbform. However, sometimes the file creation is delayed so I need to check the DOS modified/created date prior to running the query. Can you please provide some insight as to how to determine the txt file's modified/created date from vba?
THanks,
I want to flag a form IF a name field AND an address field (from two separate tables) both contain the same values that I currently am inputting on a previous record.
Specifically, if a customer "X" files another claim for the same loss location, then I want to flag the form.
What is the best way to get this kind of feedback on a form with the least amount of drag imposed on the inputting process?
I am creating a Make Table Query and calculating new fields based on current and prior year-end numbers. If the prior year-end number does not exist (Is Null), I want the use the current rate or calculate the change in rate. I have typed the below in the Field Box:
CHG_IN_PGM_RATE: IIf(([P0_10 Tbl - AM PYE PTD Detail w Rates]![PTD_PYE_PGM_RATE]) Is Null,([MASTER LIST CURRENT]![PTD_PM_PGM_RATE]),(([MASTER LIST CURRENT]![PTD_PM_PGM_RATE])-([P0_10 Tbl - AM PYE PTD Detail w Rates]![PTD_PYE_PGM_RATE])))
However, when running the query, I get the attached error message.
The screenshot will also show how the two tables are joined.

I thought its better to mention it here as well:
How do I get the query to repeat itself to gernerate extra rows of info.
I have "[Enter Ingredient Code]" in the criteria section on one column, this gives me a popup when starting the report to enter the code. I would like to have this reappear to enter more information. Maybe the action to with another pop up box like
"Would you like to add another ingredient"
"Yes" "No"
Click on yes and the query will rerun and enter the data in, select no and the report is made.
