    Using cascading Combo Boxes to filter record

    Another picky question that has me flummoxed. I can get my head around cascading combo boxes, but this one has got me. In the header of my form frmStaff i would like to place two combo boxes to filter the records shown. Records for this form come from a query Q_StaffNOTExcluded The first combo...

    Query on Date and Null

    Morning, One query that i need to run contains, amongst other things, two date fields. These are to do with training. First one is DateStarted and the other DateCompleted. I need to run a query to check all the training occurrences for null DateCompleted but only where there IS a value (any...

    Same form - different Queries

    It does. I need to make it simple, for the varying users who will use the application. What i was thinking was a main page (switchboard - called frmMenu) with two combo boxes, one "cmbSelectLocation" and "cmbtype" which lookup values from their respective tables and then a command button to run...

    Same form - different Queries

    Well, filtering on a subform is one, but only when searching for an entry (unique ID). The main work is form and subform. Let me explain... Form contains equipment (frmMainData) This contains Location and Type (1/2/3 1=Printer, 2=Cutter, 3=Binder) and also State (faulty/working/sold) Subform...

    Same form - different Queries

    I have a standard form and subform setup, with quite a few boxes and organisaed layout. Trouble is, now i need to run different queries on the date (such a only show location A where equipment = x AND equipment is faulty) varying on types of equipment and locations. Don't have a problem...

    Date Calculations

    Bit of a Query on a Query! I have a table (tblTraining) and a field called QualExpiry (short date field). This is date listing when a persons qualification requires renewal (expires). To plan ahead, i want to run a query listing all my staff members courses when the expiry date is only 4 months...

    Background colour dependant on a null

    Sorry, i meant to say background colour of the whole sub-form. On balance, i may try just highlighting the cell. May be easier. Cheers

    Background colour dependant on a null

    Evening again. Probably a quick one for the folks on here (and yes, have tried a search but getting conflicting and confusing returns?). In a subform (frmFaults) i need the background colour to show up red, when a text box date field (bound) [Date_returned) contains a null value. Any takers?

    Date Calculations

    Doubt it will be used that far. Probably for another 18 months or so, plus entry input for the last 12 months historical data.

    Date Calculations

    Pretty much spot on with ref to the checking rules. Didn't think about leap years though!

    Date Calculations

    OK. Fair points. Different question, and I probably should have put this in the OP. I need to add up the total number of lost days due to equipment failure over the last 12 months. For example, i will have a range of dates as below: 1. 1/5/07 - 1/6/07 (days lost = 31) 2. 1/6/07 - 14/10/07...

    Date Calculations

    Evening, Having a spot of bother with some date calculations. I have two date options (Date_down and Date_returned) for kit that goes away for repair. Not that it probably matters, but these dates are contained in a sub-form for each item of kit (one kit can have many faults). To keep a track...

    Is MS Access the right programme to use?

    The shifts do follow a pattern, but the pattern can be changed at 48 hours notice and other options need to be selectable (eg: Someone moving from an early shift to a late shift, or perhaps someone working a late shift now training or sick). Staff can only do one option in relation to shifts...

    Is MS Access the right programme to use?

    Sorry about that. I totally forgot about the multiple drivers when typing the first post. I do have the design, with relationships and controls but i am not sure how to post them on here in the best way so you can understand. How about this...

    Is MS Access the right programme to use?

    All drivers have to sign a useage record (for speeding tickets/accidents etc) but rather than check all 20-odd books to see who was driving it would be nice to do a check by driver of the vehicles they have driven and the dates. Does it complicate it if i muddy the water by adding the fact that...

    Is MS Access the right programme to use?

    Exporting would be done into Excel, preferably not CSV (sometimes needs to be emailed). Luckily all user (if multi-user) would be on a shared drive system (between offices)

    Is MS Access the right programme to use?

    Righty, The basic tables (drivers, routes etc poses no problem). I am a bit stuck with the shift pattern table (date/person). Any thoughts on the exporting/saving of the daily running?
