Table relationships

184 New Member
Hi all

I have been working on this project now for 4 months and is still no further than the first step. This is driving me to suicide.

As a testing database I have set up the following:

Table 1(Clients) :

ClientID
Firtsname
Lastname
HouseNumber
Streetname
Town
Postcode
HomePhone
MobileNumber
Email

Tabel 2(Treatments) :

TreatmentID
Treatment
Cost
Date

Now I am not sure how to relate these tables . I also want to set up a tabbed form and on the first page only enter new client details but then on the second enter any treatments for existing clients. Now how do you link a specific treatment to a client?

After 4 months I should know how to do this, but I think I have gotten myself into such a muddle I dont know left from right and plus we have just upgraded to Access 2007.

Thanks for any advice.

Don't worry there is no offence :)

It's a common mistake and I'm well used to it. NeoPa was just being friendly and pointing out the correction (and teasing me while he's at it).

As Mary says - I was just pulling your chain.
The ;) generally indicates a jokey manner and certainly does in this case.

...Besides, I was way off base confusing McCarthy with McCartney anyway :(

Morning

Right , I do have a little problem I cant get past. For the treatments form I have written a query to include the following :

ClientID
Treatment(Looku p to treatments to select)
Cost(Lookup to prices to select)
Date
Full Name ( Full Name:[ClientFirst]&" "&[ClientLast]

Now the only problem I have left is that Full Name does not present me with a list of existing customers to select from, instead it only displays the first client name from the table and I cannot even edit it.

Cant figure out where I am going wrong here. I have tried redoing it about 5 times now.

Try this ...

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Full Name: (SELECT [ClientFirst] & " " & [ClientLast] FROM Clients WHERE ClientID=[Client Treatments].ClientID)
  2.

I'm trying to build a database that will handle the monthly billing needs of a small company.

I am running Access 2002 and just ran the built in Access wizard for splitting a database into a back end (with tables) and front end (with queries, forms, modules, etc.). After running the wizard, I opened the table relationship view and noticed that all the relationships are missing. Is this supposed to happen? If so, why? I've noticed that queries are behaving strangely now, seemingly because the relationships are not established....

I'm creating relationships between tables using VBA and ADOX. I can create one-to-one relationships with an inner join, but I can't figure out how to create these relationships with an outer join (specifically a left outer join). I'm including the code that creates the relationships with the inner join. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! <----- CODE FOLLOWS ----->

Is there really any advantage to using DIV elements with float style properies, vs. the old method of TABLE and TR and TD? I'm finding that by using DIV, it still involves the same number of elements in the HTML to get everything just right. When you consider the class attribute on the DIV elements, there's not much size savings anymore for using DIV. There are other disadvantages to not using TABLE/TR/TD, such as the lack of ability...
