I have an Email field on a form. Is it possible to send an email by clicking on the email address? Now, I only have a vague familiarity with VBA as I've taken an Access Intermediate class. We were just introduced to it at the end of the class, so you may have to walk me through it like a 6 year old. I went to a site that said a macro was needed in either the After Update, After Delete, or After Insert. With that said, I know where to go, but I don't know exactly how to write the code. I have outlook set up on my computer and am operating Windows 8.1 and Access 360.
VBA Code to go in the on double_click event of a name field in a Subform bound to a table. The subform is just a copy of a data table and within the subform view, When the field "employee name" which contains e.g. John is double clicked, I would like access to Lookup and get John's email in the employee table under field "Email" and launch outlook application and insert it into the To field.
I assume hyperlinking the field can also achieve this similar to what excel does but I am fast learning that what is standard functionality in excel is a whole another story in Access..
I have a form which has a button to email the data out in a standard email message.
Private Sub Command60_Click() Dim MyDb As dao.Database Dim rsEmail As dao.Recordset Dim sToName As String Dim sSubject As String Dim sMessageBody As String

This works well enough, however, FIELDS 11 through to 16 contain the venue address. This is all we ll and good if every field of the venue address is populated. here are times when not all of the fields are populated, for instance, the address might only be 5 lines.I know I can do this using IIf statements on a report, but how can i achieve the same thing for the email.
I have a database which is populated, but users have to review and amend the data. I was going to ask users to sign in to do this, however my boss wants the data collected via email.
I have looked at using the email wizard, but it produces a rather messy looking email form regardless of if I choose HTML or InfoPath. Is there any way to adapt the email to make it better, or maybe another way of emailing users (through VBA)?
In my database I have a table for all of the customers emails which list the 3 titles for each district they serve, for example District 1 has across the President, Vice President and Clerk. each email is a hyperlink that when clicked once automatically takes you to outlook, however, how can I choose all 3 at once without having to go back and forth to the database and outlook after the one click? so all 3 recipients are included in the email at once. In Excel you can copy and paste the 3 emails but in Access it doesn't allow you to do that. How I can execute this?
I have created a number of tables and I am now moving onto forms, but struggling to find out how I can get data captured in one form to populate into 2 tables(if that is even possible).
Table 1- Inventory
Ok, so I have a INVENTORY TABLE where all the stock items, amounts and calculations are done. In this table I have a field called "Shrinkage" so putting in an amount in under "shrinkage" for a particular stock item would deduct it from the total stock amount.
Table 2 - Stock Shrinkage
I created another table, STOCK SHRINKAGE TABLE with the following fields - ID; Date; ProductName; Quantity; Reason; User ID.
So those are my 2 tables, I have created a SHRINKAGE FORM, using the same fields in the STOCK SHRINKAGE TABLE.
What I would like is when a user enters an amount under the "Quantity" field in the SHRINKAGE FORM, I want that exact amount to be stored in the STOCK SHRINKAGE TABLE under "Quantity" and also in the INVENTORY TABLE under "Shrinkage" for that particular stock item.
my html template is built inside access.. the form button is clicked and the template opens in outlook.
it looks fine in outlook.. so i send the email.. when i receive the email in outlook, it looks fine..
here is what it looks like

it looks fine in hotmail http://www.londonheathrowcars.com/image3.jpg
however in gmail it looks like this..

now, these gaps are appearing in between tables..
<table>blablabl</table>GAP<table>...
now, my question is.. is there anything i can add to the code that will remove these gaps.. i know my code is messy.. at the moment however it begins with <table> and ends with </table> (the main wrap table)
i realise i may need to add some kind of html type or something, but i dont know what..
as always, if anyone can shed some light on this matter i would be ever grateful..
thank you
below is the code

Private Sub emailbutton_Click() 'References: Oulook Library Dim strEmail, strSubject As String, strBody As String Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application Dim objEmail As Outlook.MailItem

Using Access 2010, I have a table the contains a field, MembereMail, that is defined as a hyperlink. I imported data from an Excel spreadsheet which looked to be consistent in format and did not realise that anything was wrong until I wrote some VB code to generate personalised emails with personalised attachments. I then found that some of the hyperlinks worked and some didn't. Those that were essentially text worked, those that were genuine hyperlinks tried and failed to go to addresses prefixed "Mailto:".
I have finally managed to convert all email hyperlinks to text content (although still defined as hyperlinks) and my code works. However when I add a new record to the table through a form, the field still being defined as Hyperlink, it goes in as pure text. I therefore have the need to use the address in both text form and as hyperlink so that the user can click on the field and start an Outlook email as well as my code running correctly for mass mailings.
So a number of questions:
-Why does Access not store the email address as a clickable Hyperlink? -How can I satisfy my two requirements from one field? -Can Access 2010 check the input text to ensure that it is a correctly formatted email address?
On the Flow Meter Form Info is listed specifically for each Flow Meter.
I would like to bring some of the information from the Contacts table on this form.
For Instance if I am on Meter 1T-02 I would like for it to associate that meter number with the name of the customer thats already on the form, then look up that customer's name in the contact table and bring over that customer's contact information.
I built this database over a year ago and it has been a long time since I have worked with the design of it, therefore I am a bit rusty.
Stuck on a problem and was wondering if anybody has a possible solution. I currently have the beginnings of a database setup that uses a search field on a form to find a reference listing using a part number input by the user. It finds the part number, and then displays all the information about it on another part of the form. My question/problem is, I now want to expand this database to multiple specialties, all with different parts in their respective listings, so they would have different tables. The tables would be the same format, just different information. No one table would ever contain the same info.
Q: How would I set up a form to search for a unique part number over multiple tables, and return that parts info?
It works great for one table, but I am stuck on the multiple tables.
Please be kind, i have little VB Knowledge, and wish to expand my learning on this topic.
I have a form that updates information on one table, and has a subform displaying info from another table.
the subform is filtered, and only shows data from what is specified from the filter of the main form.
If I update information on the main form for instance, field 1, (the data on the subform has the same data so there is the relation), how do i update the subform by only updating the mainform? can this be done through some VB or something?
if you folks out there can give a Smidget of info on which VB codes i can use i can pretty much figure it out.
I want to automate the distribution of individuals Vacation Balance and Usage via email. The data is being pulled from 2 tables related by an Employee ID#. tbl-Employees provides the Header Info for each employee and tbl-VacLog provides the detailed Usage data.
I want the output to appear as follows in the body of the email:
Name Start Date Vac. Bal TotVacToEOY Personal Bal. John Doe 1/1/99 120 160 8
Usage Date Hours Reason Code 1/1/13 8 V 2/15/13 12 V 3/6/13 8 V
I've got a handle on creating the email and sending but where I'm having trouble is in making the link between the two tables with the Employee ID# and printing the corresponding detail data with Parent Record.
Code below...
Option Compare Database Sub SendMails() Dim DB As Database Dim RecordSetA As DAO.Recordset Dim RecordSetB As DAO.Recordset Dim TotalRecordsA As Integer
It's been a while since I've asked a question here, but I can't seem to figure this problem out.
I am setting up a form using data from 4 different tables, all related, and I can't figure out how to add fields that I didn't initially add during the wizard set-up. I used the wizard because it's easier for me to do that and then go in and make the changes I want to make.
When I get data from just one table, all of the available fields from that table are in the "Field List" no matter what fields I chose to include in the wizard process. That's good. But when I get data from more than one table, only the fields I initially chose in the Wizard process are showing up in the field list. I can't figure out how to add a new and different field from one of those tables.
The way I "solved" this problem the first time was to start over, creating my form from scratch--but now that I've done a lot of work, it just occurred to me that I will need to add 2 more fields. (I actually don't even have those fields in a table yet, but I will add them later.) So, this will be an ongoing problem. Since this form will get much use, by several people, I don't want to have to re-create it every time I want to change something.
So, is this possible? How can I add another field?
Also, while I am at it... A combo box was working beautifully to look up specific records when I was gathering information from only one table. It isn't working anymore.
i want to insert a calculated value of a e.g field6 (field4 * field5) in forms into the database table. by using expression builders in my forms. i have made that feild and on click it shows the calculated value but on filling in the rest of the form and clicking on Insert button does not update this calculated field but iserts all other fields.
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.
Is it possible to send e-mails to all of your e-mail addresses in one single e-mail?
Right now I am able to open up an individual e-mails for each of my stored e-mailo adresses but it would be so much better (and more user friendly) if I could just have one e-mail with all addresses in the To: field.
I Have made a change to a field in my tables. it was was based on ethnic background and originally i had just created the field but had not added in the options ( via adding it into the row sources).
So now the tables field have been updated but unfortunately on the form it has not updated into the dropdown i had created containing the options..
I have a button setup to email a Proposal Report to specific people. Works fine. I now need the ability to email the Proposal Report (without an addendum) OR email the Proposal Report with an addendum. There are additional fields on the report with an addendum. I have tried the on format event of the Proposal Report to make the addendum fields invisible using this if statement:
Code: if Forms![CurrentJobs]![Addendums].Form![AddendumNum] Is Null Then Me.AddendumNum.Visible = False Me.Label324.Visible = False Me.Label325.Visible = False Me.AddendumDrawings.Visible = False Me.AddendumDrawingsDate.Visible = False Me.Label326.Visible = False Me.AddendumFloors.Visible = False Me.Label327.Visible = False End If
But I keep getting an "object required" error. how I can run the Proposal Report with or without addendum information depending on the job?
Normally I don't have any troubles sending an e-mail; however, this time I want to include a text field (cc copy) that is sometimes blank. The e-mail will not send if the field is blank. So, I tried using an If Then statement but that doesn't work within the SendObject command.
Here's the code I tried ...
DoCmd.SendObject acSendNoObject, , acFormatRTF, Me.POC1EMail, If Not IsNull([Me.POC2EMail]) Then Me.POC2EMail, , "FOUO: Assistance Request", "Text here", True
I have vba code set up to automate a query output to email with outlook. I am having issues with the "TO" field. I have tried different types of code, such as the following:
Both of these work, but the issue I am having is the "TO" field in the outlook message looks like this: admin@blahblah#mailto:admin@blahblah#
Why my code is adding the email address twice, I need to get rid of the #mailto:admin@blahblah# but I do not know how or why it keeps adding that end part.
How to add attachments to a email using a sub form were I store the attachment paths
E.g I have a main form called frmteaminfomer with various fields and continuous subform called attachmentssubform in the sub form I have a field call txtaddress . I have some code that I can pick a file then put its file path into txtaddress field and also have a check box call add to email. so what I trying to do is loop through all the records in the subform and if the check box is true add the files as attachment on the email.
