    Entering Data in a Query

    Currently, I only have the Tanks as a Lookup Wizard, (Enter your own), column. However, it would probably be best if I did make them a separate table to track the different sizes. I will go ahead and do that... Especially if it helps with this issue.

    Entering Data in a Query

    I've attached a sample Db with just the two tables concerned. What I want to be able to do is create a form for each tank to attach to the opening Form so that the user can change the status or change the data for the current run of each. As you can see when opening the query, I cannot update...

    Entering Data in a Query

    Calculation Issue

    Using VLOOKUP to format cells

    Hi All: I have what should be a simple formatting question. I have an entry page with multiple columns. If the user enters one item into cell D4, then depending on the product the user only has to fill in certain cells below. I made a conditional format that looks up a table on another sheet...

    Split Database Issue - Cannot Open Anymore Databases

    Evidently there are 170 database connections when I run the report. I was actually able to fix my particular issue by taking one of the Union queries and changing it to a regular query with an elaborate if/then statement to replace the separate unioned queries. It actually took it from 170...

    Split Database Issue - Cannot Open Anymore Databases

    Hi: I'm having an issue after splitting a public database. As a precaution I chose to split a shared database on my company's shared drive to ensure the data would not be corrupted. Within this database, I had a report based a Union Query and within this report, I have a button which has the...

    Pivot Charts as objects

    Hi all: My company recently upgraded to Office 2013, which has ostensibly made all of our Access databases currently unusable since we used the pivot chart feature in all aspects of our operations. I've been charged with the task of fixing this dilemma, particularly before our quality audit at...

    Chart and Pivot Table access 2013

    I've tried creating pivot charts in Excel by linking my Access query, and then inserting the excel sheet into Access as an object. However, when I insert the object into the form and open it, it only allows me to make one filtering change and then freezes. This is highly problematic, as before...

    Operation must use an updateable query

    So, I'm going to have to make an append query to store the data I want to delete into a separate table and use that table as the basis for my update criteria from which to delete archived data? It's a long way around, but I agree in that it's the simplest solution and seemingly the only one.

    Operation must use an updateable query

    Hi all: Hopefully this is a quick fix. I'm trying to create an Update table for an Audit database and I am receiving the error in my title. I'm not certain what makes this different than other update queries I have made. As an example, the following update query worked: UPDATE tblTarget...

    Issue with Dates

    I changed the ActionDueDate to: IIf([ActionReq]="Yes",CDate(DateAdd("m",2,[DateComplete])),""), which for my test row returns a date of 7/20/2015 The compliant formula is the following: IIf(([ActionDueDate]<Date()) And ([ActionDueDate]<>"") And ([ActionTaken]=False),"Overdue","Compliant") I...

    Issue with Dates

    Hi all: I know this likely has a really simple solution, but I've been coming back to it for days now with no success and I feel like I'm going mad trying to figure it out... so here goes. I have a database with a table tblSOPAudits. In this table there is a "date completed" column and two...

    Editing in a query linked to a linked table

    I was able to find a work around for my particular purpose. I created an update for my appended table that finds records not in the ODBC table. Then I created a delete query that removes those records from my appended table. Then I just inserted a button that does the three functions of...

    Editing in a query linked to a linked table

    the outer joins do not work. I still cannot edit. When I outer join to the ODBC, no data comes up and when I outer join to the tblTargets all the appended data comes up, when all I really want is the data present in the ODBC table. In all scenarios, the system will not allow me to check the...

    Hi: I am having an issue with a query not being able to be edited. I created a database with an ODBC connection to my company's Warehouse Management System. However, for purposes of auditing product from specific sections, and the ODBC table being unable to be edited, I created a new table...

    Iif Contains in column from other table

    I'm still not certain how I would be able to coordinate with my other table. For example, if I have only 4 records so far: Georgia Green 8:00AM Horizon Blue Georgia Green 7:36AM Slate Blue 5:22pm And my table with the colors looks like: Color_Like Color Georgia...

    Iif Contains in column from other table

    I assumed that was the issue. However, with the format of the excel page I'm linking to, it would never come up. Essentially, the page actually has a drop down in which the colors are located and they choose one. However, often they unlock the page and put notes. For example, when changing...
