How do I create one Dlookup for multiple criteria in different tables? TxtMfrNumber with the name of the control that you're using to get this number.

How to use DLookup in MS Access to automatically populate a value in a column based on a value selected in a drop down list in another column. How to Lookup Values Using Multiple Columns in.
The short answer is no, the DLookup function can only reference 1 table or query, but you can create a query that joins the two tables and then perform the DLookup using the query. The Dlookup will only return 1 value.
If multiple records with the same ID are in the related table, you will get an error. Alternatively, you can use a DLookup function within a query.
For example, create a query that pulls the ID from the first table and use the DLookup function within that query to pull the info from the second table SELECT firsttable.ID, Dlookup('fieldofsecondtable', 'secondtable', 'IDfieldinsecondtable=' & firsttable.ID) FROM firsttable Edited by: jzwp11 on Fri Feb 12 14:39:33 EST 2010.

I have a form that runs a query to find all the info in the Vehicles tbl that is not 'Retired', not visible in the form. I then have the option to toggle to a Reallocated or Retired form. When i toggle to the reallocated form, i have the like fields in that table (ie Van #, Vin, Make etc) pulling the info from the hidden subform with the vehicle query, so i do not need to fill in repeat data.

Access displays a circular reference error message. Jun 14, 2012 There is a public master database with a bunch of tables and data in it being maintained by another group. My boss wants to skim some information from this, add some of his own information to it, and save it in a completely separate.mdb file on our server. I've used Access to link to the public database, built a custom table just for us, and built a form.
The form uses bound controls on the left side to pull in data from the public database, and unbound controls on the right side for user entry of data. I coded a VBA save button that should save all controls (bound/imported as well as unbound/data entry) to our local table.
The unbound controls save just fine, but the bound controls are missing from the table. A new row is created with no problems, I get no error messages, but half the fields in the table are just blank.

If anyone can help I would be so greatful Thank you Nic May 8, 2015 I have a simple data entry form based on a table. However I have a few fields that I do a lookup in a field on the form from a query, and yes I know I should not have a lookup in the control source however, this is the way that I will be doing it on this occasion. =DLookUp('Salary','Salary Query') How I get the value from this unbound field to enter into the actual field in the table. Do I bring the actual field into the form and hide, and do some sort of after update, as I have tried and it does not work.
I have called the unbound field with lookup 'Salary Level Base' and the actual field in the table is 'Salary Base'. Apr 25, 2013 I am working with a database that I downloaded and am trying to modify to fit my needs. This is an inventory database. The products table contains a description and pricing.
I want the description and pricing to populate in the Purchase Order form, so I added Dlookup fields in the Purchase Order form. However, the pricing information is not populating to my Inventory Transactions Table from the Purchase Order form by way of this Dlookup feature, and therefore will not show on my report, and in turn does not show in my Total of my Purchase Order report. As a work around, I tried creating a calculation in the purchase order report, of =UnitsOrdered.Products.UnitPrice, and the pricing totals show fine on my report, but the subtotal doesn't work. I was unable to upload my file.so a few notes of info. There are no queries set up in the database for this report. I had tried a sorting grouping thing (in the Report) by Subtotal, but now can't get rid of it. When I show the field list for the report, across the top of the window reads: SELECT DISTINCTROW Employees., Products., Inventory Transactions., Purchase ORders., Suppliers., nz(Inventory Transact Looks like it runs out of space I am trying to attach a couple of images to support my comments.
Since this issue crosses both reports and forms (and tables!), I am not sure where to properly post. The end result I am looking for is on my report. I am using Access 2003. May 29, 2015 Having problems getting dlookup to work in the control source field of a text box. My form has fields: Catalog # (numeric value) and Country (drop down text selection).
I would like to query a table CatNameList for a name (text) if the catalog # and country find a match on the table. My field names on the CatNameList table are: Name, Number (to validate against the Catalog # entered on the form) and CName (to validate against the Country drop down on the form). I am successfully able to populate the name from the CatNameList table on my form using lookup of the catalog # using this: =DLookUp('Name','CatNameList','Number = Form!Catalog #') However, I will eventually have several catalog numbers that will be identical in the table CatNameList, thus why the country is important as the second criteria to be added into the dlookup. I have tried for a few hours unsuccessfully to add the second portion to my dlookup.
This is what I have currently (not working) that I have been playing with, I'm sure I'm missing a quote mark, & or something simple. =DLookUp('Name', 'CatNameList', 'Number = Form!Catalog # And CName = ‘”& Form!Country & ”’”) Mar 22, 2013 I have 3 table table; Invoice table, Product table and Saleproduct table.

Jul 1, 2007 Hi all, instead of doing a dlookup via a query, i'd like to do a dlookup for price direct in a table where the criteria is the value in Text1 from Form1 outt = Nz(DLookup('Price', 'Table1')) Where Product = ' Text1' from Form1 Whats the correct syntax for this please? Thanks Jan 10, 2014 I have a few selected reports on an Access 2007 database that users can run. Is there a way for users to view the report, save as a PDF and automatically save a copy to a shared drive by modules/vba coding as an On Click event procedure? Aug 10, 2006 Okay, I've been working on this database for weeks now, I'm almost done, there is a light at the end of the tunnel and my boss is anxious to implement the db as I'm only here for 3 more weeks and it MUST be completed, tested, error checked before I leave.
So I'm running out of time FAST! Okay, the problem is simple. I'm using a Data Access Page in Access to build a nice little front-end for my database for my co-workers to use. On this DAP (Data access page) I have an Input box that allows the users to browse their directory and select a file. I need to take the path/file name that pops up in the input box and just save it to the table. I can take care of all the other elements. So, through DAP, how do I save the value in the inputbox into my table.
Please, any help would be great!:eek: Feb 14, 2007 Hi Guys, What i am trying to do is, i have two tables called Table1 and Table2. I have created a form called Form1. This Form1 has all the fields from Table1. What i want to do is, as soon as a user fills in the details in Form1, obviuosly it saves those details in Table1, BUT i want it to save a couple of field values into Table2 as well. How do i go about doing this??
In Table1 i can access the fields by 'Me.Fieldname' (from the VB script), but how do i access Table2 OR how do i save data to Table2 from Form1. Thanks Mar 6, 2008 Hi there. I have a table which contains a field with the name 'date'.
I have defined the property 'date/time' on the data type of this field and as an input mask I have: ;0; i want the date to be saved as but every time I try to save it the zero digits are deleted and it is saved as 2/2/2008. How can I do that??
Jun 6, 2013 I have in my Form. Table 1: Vender Name, Number, contract, amount, quantity,and order number. Table 2: Doc #, Date. Multiple Doc #'s and dates will be saved under one vendor name (hence the two tables).
What I need is a MACRO where once I save the Doc #and Date to a record, I need to be able to go back to that record and enter a new Doc # without saving over the one I originally did. Mar 29, 2013 I have two tables each containing fields Brand, Form, Area.
Table 1 has some other information that needs to be gathered (data entry) and Table 2 is just a reference table for changes to these areas. This reference table has an additional field labeled area point value which is the value I want to 'print'. The form is based off of Table 1 and has all of the fields I want the users to input. Stripped down, I have three combo boxes for the user to choose Brand, Form, and Area.I also have an unbound textbox control where I want the area point value to based off of the value of the three aforementioned boxes.
I believe this can be achieved with a lookup but I've never actually used a lookup in a control this complex before. Aug 15, 2013 I'm pretty familiar with getting values from a table via Dlookup. What I want to do is almost the reverse if possible? I'm declaring a variable as follows: Dim Ref as string Ref = leadid This is from a form.What I'd like to be able to do is go to the table list, reference the lead ID in the table via the variable then change the field status to 'INCALL'.Can this be done in a similar way to Dlookup?
