Visible Option On 2nd Record Linked To First Record
Jun 16, 2006
my form works fine on the first record of the database but now i have added a 2nd record some of the functionallity form the first record is applied to the second. At the moment in my table for each record i have a status field which speifies whether certain data is visible to the user or not. When i select visible = false on record one this is also appled to record 2. I dont want this and want each record to have there own specific status.
For example at the moment i have:
if me.combobox.value = 1
Me.mytxtbox.visible=true
else
Me.mytxtbox.visible=false
endif
This seems to apply the rule to all records not just the current one i am in. If explaination isnt clear i will gladly expand further
My database has a master quote form with a gajillion subforms. The database is set up so if a user wants to enter a new quote, a button "enter new quote" is clicked and a new record pops up. (The form is attached to a master quote table.) Originally I thought if the user chooses to create a new quote, they will, and follow through till the end. Now I'm wondering if I should give them the option to save or delete created quote.
Save is automatic, ofcourse, but not sure what method to use to delete record. Will potentially need to delete info from subforms. All tables in use are enforced with referential integrity and cascade delete.
Also, user can go into previously created quote and change if need be (until the quote is approved then this is not possible). Would like to give option of undoing changes and again, I'm not sure what method to use.
i want the user to make a selection from one of two option boxes, with the choice that they make i want a list box to appear straight away, depending on there selection, can anyone help please.
On my form is an option button called "optClosed". When the option button is selected, I want to lock the current record so that data cannot be changed. Is this possible?
I've a form to create new customers accounts. The form has a drop-down control listing the cities in the "cities" table. This drop-down control has a hidden column (id) and a visible column (city_name). The user can choose a citie from the list and the city id (1st column in the drop-down list) will be stored in the "city_id" field in the "customers" table.
Problem:
I need to allow users to enter cities not listed in the drop-down control. When they entrer a new city, I need to create a new record in "cities" table for the new city.
I tried opening a dialog using the NotInList event, and the dialog pops up as espected, but also pops up an ugly msgbox wich says that the typed text isn't a listed item.
I have a table called "Workorders" that I have created a split form for and have customised it so that it had combo boxes etc to enable the user to change the record data.I then needed to add some existing queries to the form so that I could calculate some totals from records in a few other tables. This all works fine EXCEPT that I can no longer change any of the fields in the records.
I am sure that it is something to do with the fact that the 3 queries I added to the form use the "Grouped by" option and based upon my Googling, this is probably the issue.Here is one of the queries:
SELECT DISTINCTROW [Workorder Labor].WorkorderID, Sum([BillableHours]*[BillingRate]) AS [Labor Total] FROM [Workorder Labor] GROUP BY [Workorder Labor].WorkorderID;
I need to have the totals and I also need to have the ability to change the data..
I have recently updated several forms from Access 2003 to 2010.
On the old version I could 'hold down' the forward or backward pointers to quickly scroll through the individual records. Now I have to click each individual record to move one at a time.
Have I inadvertently changed a setting or is the quick scroll option no longer available?
Is there a way to duplicate, triplicate, a record based on an option group selection. i.e.
Form Field: Option group Value = 1 Value = 2 Value = 3 Field 2: Field 3: Field 4: and so on.
Basically if value 1 is selected, then I fill out the rest of the fields hit enter and go to a new record. But if value 2 or 3 is selected, I fill out the the fields, hit enter. The information is recorded said number of times based on the selection in the option group. Ideally I would have2 or 3 of the same record in the db, with different Primary keys of course.
I created a database that performs certain functions ("functional database") and I want to archive the changes I make to that database's structure in a central repository that is nothing more than another database ("repository") that I will create to track all of the revisions made to the 80 or so databases within my department.
I would like to create a link on the main form in the functional database that will, on click open the specific record in the repository database that refers to the revisions previously made to the functional database.
I have created a query to show the fields from different tables but I am unable to add a new record. I have pin-pointed the problem to the Bottle_Speeds table. I believe it is the join that is preventing additions/edits (please look @ the attached picture) because as soon as I removed that table from the query I can add/edit. Can anybody tell me why it is doing this and if it is possible to fix? I would be happy if I could just edit the record, I can do a seperate form for adding. Thanks in advance.
I am getting the error RunTime '2105' You can't go to the specifed record.
Just converted my test database to read from a sybase linked table rather than the development local table. It reads fine but the new record button now gives the above error. I presume I need to code myself a new record function . . .
Is this what I have to do, and if so, what's the best (and quickest!) way of going about it?
I have an access form that has a marco button to open another form using a filter that returns records in the new form that have a matching recordID field from the main form. This works fine.
I want to be able to add records to the table which works as well only the recordID field is not populated with the id field used in the filter from the main form. How can I populate the recordID field with that of the master filed from the main form? It is just blank on the new records created now.
I developed a database in Access 2000 on an XP SP2 machine with linked tables to another Access 2000 database.
Everything works fine using my machine, but when a user running Windows 2000 uses the database, they cannot add a new record to the linked table (either directly using the datasheet or a form). Running a query on the table also did not let me add a new record.
I have searched the MSDN libraries, but I wasn't able to find anything.
I have 4 tables that contain a vehicle registration number field as their primary key and have one-to-one referential integrity applied.
I want to add a new registration to all 4 tables from one query. How?
I've tried many permutations with no success, such as putting the registration on a new table and trying to apply this to the 4 RI tables. I keep getting ref intergrity violations. Obviously I could disable the ref integrity rules, update the tables and then reapply the rules, but this is not possible if I am going to make the database available to a user group. A new registration needs to be added seamlessly. By not having ref integrity could leave the DB in an inconsistent state.
Help! If what I want is not directly possible, then any work-round would be appreciated.
I am trying to have a command button load a form which will filter the records to those pertaining to a value selected in a combo box on a previous form and have the value for the combobox selection display in a textbox on the subform. However, I also want the subform to only display a new record, while still displaying the value selected from the combobox.
Basically, I want to select value on combobox, click button to open form and see a new record with the selected value displayed in a textbox.
So far I have used the wizard to create code for linked fields, and then pasted code for adding a new record, but the two don't seem to go together. Does order matter? Is there a better way of trying to make this work?
I have posted this a number of places and so far haven't been given any useful information. Can anyone help?
What I have is a form with a combo box that lets a user select the Letter Type. For 1 letter in particular I want it to open up a subform(s) that holds "options" that users can click on. My question is how would I get these options / multiple options to link to 1 record that correlates with the Letter Type?
I have several tables that are linked that I need to be able to add to. This is an example of the structure:
Patient Info ID FK_Ward - ID of Ward table FK_Room - ID of Room table FK_Cond - ID of Condition table
Ward ID WardID
Room ID RoomNumber
Condition ID Description
Unfortunately, its not the exact one as I can't post that here! What I am trying to do is to add a new patient record using information from the other tables as guides - e.g. the user selects the name of the Ward but the ID in the Ward table is entered, the User selects the number of the room but again the ID in the Room table is entered, and for the Condition same thing. So I would like to have dropdowns (or ComboBoxes) for each of these and based on the user's selections add a new record to PatientInfo using the ID values as links.
From what I have read, I understand you can't use the seek command on a recordset from a linked table from another database. Is that true? If so, what is the alternative to find a specific record in the table using an indexed field?
I have three tables which I have linked with relationships. The linked fields are given the ID number of the parent, where I wanted the value. What on earth am I doing wrong, something stupidly obvious I bet! Access 2007
I have a form that is linked to a query by its Record Source.In one of the Text boxes I want to appear the number of rows in the query where Days = 4 so I thought I would try to use DCOUNT as the Control Source for the Text Box. However every expression I try for DCOUNT throws back error? or name?. How to sort my code?
=DCount("[EPISODEUNIQUEKEY]","1-12 Show Records by Date Range","[Days] = '4'")
I linked a table (front to back) yesterday. I had a user enter information into this table. It's a login table. The login screen of the asp page is not able to find the record, even though I can see it in both tables. I am not sure what's wrong, since both tables show the same information. Does anybody have any ideas?
My form used to work and as I kept adding event scripts now when I click on the ID text field, it doesn't open the linked record, but a blank record with 'Filtered' showing on the bottom navigation. I guess a question I have is,
-is there an order on which the procedure scripts run -do they all run everytime, or just the specific event script
=================================== Private Sub Company_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "frm Company", , , "[ID] = " & [ID] DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmCompanyDirectory" End Sub ===================================
I used to have code on a button on the "frmCompanyDirectory" that added a new record to "frm Company" and that's when the ID = ID stopped working.
Access 2010. I have a form pulling from a query to create a "To Do' list of sorts. On this form is a button to open an input form for the corresponding record (I hope). When this button is used I want it to pull certain data for that specific line from the query and input it into the new record opened by the button. I know this is possible as I use another db that does this but I have not been able to figure out how to make it work in the new db.
