    Subforms and searching for two items in separate records

    Hi I recently posted another message relating to subforms in my library catalogue. This problem is that I have an interface to the catalogue to enable searching for information in several fields. The main form has a subform linking to a table titled Subject Keyword. When I catalogue an item...

    Subform duplicating fields from source

    I created a library catalogue using Access and the main form to enter details includes a subform to assign subject keywords for each item catalogued e.g. a book. The subform is connected to table containing the Subject Keywords. There is no limit to the number of subject keywords I can assign...

    Changing the Indexed property of a field in a table

    Dear Team I have inherited a poorly designed database and one of the problems is that a field has been set up as Indexed - Yes (No Duplicates) when (Yes Duplicates) should have been selected. This table only has an ID field and one other text field which is the primary key and is the one I...

    Subform - select item from combo box

    Hi I'm building my second db. I've got 2 subforms in my data-entry form. The first one is fine. The second one is based on a table with 5 fields. I would like one field to be displayed (Publication reports numbered 1-46) and after selection the remaining associated fields appear and then the...

    Report results incorrect

    Hi Lilliabeth There is no problem if I run the query. Its just in the report. I tried grouping on the report and that hasn't worked. But there is a new development with the report. The second named person with the same surname appears with only their records but the first person with the...

    Report results incorrect

    I have a report where there are two people with the same lastname but different firstname and the report relating to those two is presented under the first person only. Obviously there is either a problem with the query or table. Should firstname and lastname be linked somehow? And is it too...

    Adding a new field to a table

    Hi LittleSmudge I have the answer now. I thought the changes on the BE should be reflected in the FE, but they aren't. So your advice was correct. My database was split after the tables were constructed, and I wasn't aware that the tables in the front-end shouldn't necessarily reflect the...

    Adding a new field to a table

    Hi LittleSmudge It's still not working. This time I started from scratch. With the FE closed, I opened the BE and added the new hypertext field to the table. I then checked that the relationships revealed the new field in the appropriate table. Check check. I then closed the BE and opened...

    Adding a new field to a table

    Hi LittleSmudge Ok I've added the new field and then had to give the table a new name, and then updated the table links because yes my db is split. I believe I have to now re-establish the relationships but as its sometime since I created this db and its my first real on, I can't seem to get...

    Adding a new field to a table

    Hi This will be a very straightforward question for someone. I have an established database and need to add a new field (hyperlink) to my main table. I've just tried and the new field isn't appearing. I intend to add this field to my main table and reports. I realise that I will need to...

    Adding new field/s to an old form

    This should be an easy question - I would like to add a new field to my main form. The new field will contain hyperlinked documents from the web and/or the local network. Could a modification affect my database and queries, reports, tables etc? Should I create two fields, one for weblinks...

After the user types in their search query, they must then use the mouse to click on the command button titled Search...

    URL & other linked documents in form

    Thanks Lightning However not all the contents in that field would be hyperlinked. I only include a URL or local server address if the document is available electronically. I thought that I could select the URL and hyperlink it.
