I'm creating a form where user enters client data on various fields (tbl_Clients). This table is connected with others like (tbl_ClientContacts).
What I'm trying to do is to list personal contact information (name, phone, email, position) in a list box from table (tbl_ClientContacts) inside a form responsible for entering client data and later on using those contacts on reports as well BUT
Everytime when I open this form I'm being prompted with param required box.
on a query responsible for those contact data im using following code (end of select clause):
WHERE (((Tbl_Client.ClientName)=[Forms]![Frm_Client]![ClientName]))
I'm trying to recover this data based on field in form. It can't be done with requery connected to a button as well.
Can someone help me with this problem?
Good Morning All,
I am wrestling with a problem with continuous forms.
I have a continuous form based on a query that pulls transaction information from a table.
I want to have text box on each row where the user can override the fee value, at which point when the submit button is clicked the overridden information is written into a second table in the database.
When I add an unbound text box onto the continuous form I end up with all entries reflecting the amount I have just entered.
If I add a dummy column onto the SQL query, I am unable to edit the information.
Is there a way to do this? Below is an example of the form input I am shooting for:
Snip:
I don't think this can be done in Access.
I think the closest you can get, is to display the value from the secondary table in your continuous form; and then, after some user input (focus into the textbox, or double-click the text box, or button click), prompt the user to enter a value using either the VBA InputBox function, or leveraging the built-in Zoom box. Check that the user-entered value is a valid number, update your external table, and refresh the query results.
You might also create a custom form to validate the input.
I'm new to MS ACCESS, I would like to know if there is a way to clear an auto number field using a clear button. I've tried to follow some videos on you particularly this one but it seems to be not the proper way on how to deal or create an auto number field.
This is the image is the sample of the form which I'm experimenting with this particular subject.
And this image is the error code which I'm getting right after I clicked the clear button.

Below is the code I use for this experiment.
You don't need to clear autonumber field, it handled automatically. So, remove EnployeeID field from INSERT statement and delete rows with Me.txtEmployeeID from clear procedure
The AutoNumber Data Type is assigned automatically and can't be
changed. Also once you enter data into some other field like Employee
Name(New Record event initiated), access will assign a value to the
AutoNumber let's say 1. If you press Esc, access will cancel the edit. Next time you create a new record access will assign the value 2 and so forth. Unless you repair the database then access will reset the AutoNumber counter.
If you want a data type that you change its value, you need to change the Data Type to Number. In this case you need to assign each value by code or by the user input.
I have a problem with the workflow which I prepared for Communities users. The idea whole idea is to populate Address field according to the values which Communities users will enter. However, when I did the test it looks that the workflow doesn't work. I feel lost as everything looks fine for me. Here is the screenshot of my workflow:
and here is the action which I set up for this workflow:
At this point I was trying to refer to Description field just to be sure it works and it is not spoiled by any of Address field settings. However, it doesn't even populate the results in the Description field. Could anyone help me with that please?
I see the error in your field update. You are using description field in both places: as a field to Update and as a formula value. If you want, that description field are populated from adress field, you should chose adress field for formula value.
I have been trying to update a text field in a form that will automatically generate a new number in a read only state when a user fills out the form. When the user completes the form and selects the submit button, the form will be attached to SharePoint List and the following user will open the form and the number field will be the number +1. I have used 'count(mynumber)' and the field returns 1, but when I close the form and re-open it, the field still displays 1 and never increases. When I use 'count(mynumber) + 1' the field returns 2 and also never updates. Finally, I used 'max(mynumber) +1' and it returns NaN. I have come to the conclusion that there is an array here, but don't know what I need to do, to fix this.
I have informed my manager of 'InfoPath 2010 Cookbook' so hopefully this will help, but I also took a gander as this following link, which was not easy to follow as I believe its for 2007 instead of 2010.

I am using SP 2010.
So, here is the simple approach to the simple request:
•Just like in any database, every item in every list and library in SharePoint has a unique ID. This ID is stored in the ID field, which is available for viewing in any list or library. Go to your list, modify the view, and check the box next to the ID field so you can see what I mean. This ID is 100% guaranteed to be unique and is never duplicated.
•Since you already have purchase order numbers, you can't use the IDs by themselves, however, you can use them to drive your auto-generated Service Order numbers
•The easy method for doing this is to utilize your SO field, which is now a Number field, and determine the differential between the next ID in the list and the next Service Order number that needs to be created.
•Then, create a simple workflow in SharePoint Designer 2010 that ONLY runs on the creation of a new item (only runs once per item/form), and set it to add the differential to the current item's ID (Something like Do Calculation: ID + 1200) . Next, use Set Field in Current Item to set your SO field to the variable created by the Do Calculation step
From then on, you will always have a GUARANTEED unique, auto-incremented SO # for each form, and you should make this field read-only inside the form so that users can only view it and not edit it.
