    One form to create multiple data entries

    Is this form bound or unbound? In other words, does it store the record automatically when you leave the form, or do you have code that stores everything for you when you push a button to 'confirm', etc? The usual method is bound forms, but it affects the answer/solution. Also, will all...

    One form to create multiple data entries

    Did you delete a thread about this from earlier today? I swear I answered this one already... Anyway, we need a little more information to help you. In particular, what do you want to do with the 'remainder' of a bill - if the total is $250.76 and there were ten diners, who gets to pay for the...

    Showing more than one record

    That's a Continuous Form, which Mihail offered you about 13 posts ago. Size it so you get six records on the same screen. Understand that this will not let you ENTER all six simultaneously (though you can flip between them at will). If you think you need to do that, I suspect you need to...

    Create New Record

    You can consider the subform to be a complex 'control', especially if it only contains one field. Subforms give you flexibility and leverage the strengths of a relational database - i.e. connecting one-to-many in this situation. Why might you not have control over your tables?? Don't let other...

    Pulling Check Box's on form

    A mockup we can look at (critique) sounds best. The line " I'm wanting to have the same information entered/stored in the table exactly over and over again." concerns me because it sounds like your data tables are not set up correctly for a relational database. Have you learned about...

    Calculated Query with IIF, AND & ELSE Conditions

    Yup. Since you had "0" in your example I figured you were using a string variable for some reason. Glad you got it working!

    Form/Subform print to report

    Stupid question, but does your report have WorkID as a control in it? It's not enough that it be in the recordsource, it needs to be on the report... though you can set it to .Visible = False if you want.

    Help on DB With Updating Dates

    Generally when I want to do this sort of reporting, I build a popup form with two unbound date fields on it. Then I build a query/report/form/whatever that points to those two fields for its Criteria (>= the left one, <= the right one, etc... remember to account for 'time' if these are not pure...

    Showing more than one record

    Your question still does not make sense. What is the purpose of entering six (identical?) records at once? Have you tried a Continuous form, like Mihail suggested? In what way does that not meet your needs? Help us help you. Be specific and concrete.

    Concatenation in Update Query

    What is the purpose behind storing the calculated value, versus just putting it in a query?

    Calculated Query with IIF, AND & ELSE Conditions

    IIF already has an Else clause. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/access-help/iif-function-HA001228853.aspx You can do ANDs with parentheses. So probably something like:Total_Cost: IIF(([Canceled]="-1" AND [Paid]="0"),"0",Sum( insert calculation here))

    Are you an atheist?

    This is called Pascal's Wager, and it breaks down the instant you realize that somebody ELSE's God might be right. http://www.iep.utm.edu/pasc-wag/#H3

    Can Access Expression Builder mirroring "IF function" from Excel

    What error message does it given when it stops? What happens when you hover over the CustID and rs!CustID in that screen? Do the values there make sense? Also hover the variable a just for fun...

    Form crashes on 1 PC only

    Can you open the database on that PC in developer mode, add a breakpoint, and step through your code? Do you know at what point it freezes (switchboard load, first saved record, etc? I've had that happen a few times when some bad reference or whatever hits my code...

    Dynamic Top Value

    Yes, much clearer, thanks! :) Unfortunately while I know what you want to do IS possible, I am not at all sure what the best way to do it is, so I'll leave that to others... my method would involve abusing recordsets and arrays a great deal, but that's because this week I am working primarily...
