    Modify Titles of Query Fields

    Good Afternoon, I have a simple Query which very satisfactorily exports data to a Tab Delimited Text File to upload to a website. The field titles are dictated by the Table Field Names but I would like to modify these for the export. Is there a simple criteria code by which this can be...

    Auto Populate Form Field

    Paul, You were correct the column count was increased to 3 and then the update functions for the second condition. However the outcome is weird, instead of producing a 'Leader's' name, it produces a Member ID, which is obviously being picked from the main table [Mail List] vis the [Groups]...

    Auto Populate Form Field

    Paul, I need to bother you again with a supplementary but related question. Is it possible to add a second line of code in an afterupdate event procedure to display and save data to a second text box. My first line reads; Me.[Group ID]=Me.[Group Name].Column(1) and that works, but I wish to...

    Auto Populate Form Field

    Many thanks Paul, That works beautifully! You have been extremely patient & helpful. Things are so much simpler when you know what you are doing, or more precisely when one is led by the hand. I am puzzled as to why others on the forum have emphatically stated that such a procedure should not...

    Auto Populate Form Field

    Nothing wrong with your eyes as I will explain. The problem relates to the [Group Members Entry Form]. The #Name error occurred when I was applying your non-saving option of autofill. This occurs when the control source of the [Group ID] text box is written as [Group Name].Column(0). The #Name...

    Auto Populate Form Field

    Sorry Paul, As the suggested solution failed I removed it. I will reinstate it and do another upload tomorrow. I apologize for wasting your time. jcbhydro

    Auto Populate Form Field

    Paul, as requested, attached please find the db file. I have reduced all but 75 of the records and have done some severe editing for reasons of security. This should't affect the structure or coding of the databas. I confidently predict that you will note many aspects of the database which are...

    Auto Populate Form Field

    Paul, I have been looking for a protocol for posting a cutdown database, but haven;t found one. Obviously, I need to delete the bulf of the records and modify those that remain, for security reasons. Where should I look for guidancee. jcbhydro

    Auto Populate Form Field

    Paul, Thanks again. Yes I had included an = sign. However, I have concluded that your alternative solution might be more appropriate to my needs. I detail below my interpretation of your suggested coding; Property Sheet [Group ID] Text Box {NB Group Members is the table associated to form}...

    Auto Populate Form Field

    Many thanks for your response. I have read and attempted to apply the principles you outline in your htm file, but without success. The code which I listed previously is intalled in the 'row source' for the [Group Name] field. The control source for the [Group ID] text box previously contained...

    Auto Populate Form Field

    Good Evening, I have an entry form for a table named [Group Members]. The form has several fields deriving data from 2 other tables [Mail List] and [Groups] I wish to automatically display a Group ID when the relevant Group Name is selected from a drop down list. The Row Source Code is as...

    Exporting a Query to a Tab Delimited Text File

    I am obviously doing something incorrwctly as I cannot get the suggested criteria to function; If I detail the structure of my query perhaps you could suggest where I am going wrong' The 6 columns of my query are: E-Mail, First name, Last Name:Surname, eNewsletter:e-NEWS List, SO:Subs SO...

    Exporting a Query to a Tab Delimited Text File

    Namliam, I now recognize the IIF function and the logic of the suggested expression. I assumed that I should incorporate the expression IIF([eNewsletterr],"Y","N") as a 'criteria' in an additional column in the Query Design View, but what do I use as a column heading? Also, do I need a...

    Exporting a Query to a Tab Delimited Text File

    Namliam, Thank you for your rapid response to my query. Sadly, I don't have the faintest idea of the meaning of your suggestion! I have never come across the term 'lif' previously. I assume that it is an abbreviation for some procedure implemented in building the query. Any further comment...

    Exporting a Query to a Tab Delimited Text File

    Good Morning Folks, I am able to successfully export data from an Access 2010 Query to a Tab Delimited Text file without difficulty. My problem is that the Query includes several 'tick boxes'. The resulting text file shows the text boxes as 1 or 0 as appropriate. What I actually require is a...

    Incremental numbering from existing Number Sequence

    Rebecca, The code I used in the Default Value of the Property Sheet is; =DMax("[Member ID]","[Mail List]")+1 'Member ID' is my numbered Primary Key field and 'Mail List' is the database name. regards, jcbhydro

    Incremental numbering from existing Number Sequence

    Paul, I have revisited this problem and used the =DMax proposal again and amazingly it now works perfectly. I am pretty certain that I am not doing anything differently this time but in any case it works. Thank you once again for the considerable effort you have expended on my behalf. jcbhydro

    Auto Fill of Form Fields from associated Tables

    The [Group Members] table was built, on advice from this Forum, because it will eventually incorporate data other than that copied from the other 2 tables. It would be inappropriate to clutter these 2 tables with unrelated data. Hence my need for autofill of the current fields is still...
