Using multiple tables in one form.

4 New Member
Hi …

I’m very new to using MS-Access and I need some help.

I work for a medical device company and prior to me coming on board they tracked ECO (Engineering Change Order) Numbers using pen & paper. I’ve created a Table (Table-A) to automatically assign an ECO number, track who the originator is, the product line being affected, and status of the ECO.

I’ve set this up so that Table-A stores information for the Originator (Table-B), Product Line (Table-C), and Status (Table-D) from separate Tables. I’ve also created a database interface page to input the required information into Table-A.

My question is … How can I get my (interface) Page to read directly from Table’s B, C, and D that will then store this information into Table-A ?

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Brian

Does anyone know how to use VBA to relink tables between two MS Access databases? We have two databases, one with VBA code and the other with data tables. The tables are referenced by linked tables in the database where the code resides. If we move the database with the data tables to a new directory, the links are no longer valid. I tried to update the links by changing the Connect property and refreshing: Set td = db.TableDefs(0)...

Hi All, I've got a situation where I am developing an Access 97 app for a client, and am in the "beta testing" stage. I have split the app up, using the DB splitter, into front-end /back-end for the usual reason ... so I can mess with form/report revisions. Since splitting, I've had issues with re-linking the tables ... as it relates to the completetely different "My Documents" data paths on several different Win98 / Win XP computers.

Hello there, I have a front end database that I have recently made very many changes to to allow off-line use. I keep copies of the databases on my hard drive and link to them rather than the live databases on the network. Is there a way, via code, when I get back in-house from being on the road to click a button, and select the backends I want to link to? I would want to delete all the current links and link to the "live"

Quite awile ago I posted to this newsgroup in regards to using Datasets in my VB 2005 application. About how many Datasets should be used.. a limit to the number of tables that should be included in a dataset, etc. The concensus I was given was that one Dataset should be created per logical set of data, or approximately 1 Dataset per form (usually consisting of 5 or less tables). After finishing 2 projects using VB 2005 and DataSets I...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
