I have a database problem. I want to create a simple Java FXML application which could help to my friend to search the protein/potassium content of the foods, because of kidney disease.
I have 4 class variables: name, protein, potassium, and id for the database (to identify the variables in the database).
I use Java DB - derby.
My application has 2 pane: 1. „home screen” has a textfield, where you have to type the name of the food you looking for, and if you click to the „search” button it will search the appropriate data from the database and show it in a table on the next pane. (the searching isn't working yet – you can type anything in the textfield what you want and then click to "Search", but no results showed yet in the table).
On the next page you can see the table, and at the bottom, you can add new data. I did a test to make sure the database works correctly, so the second pane I wrote a test Name, test Protein content, test Potassium content, and then click to the „add” button. Then the table shows just the potassium value, and puts this value in the first column instead of the „potassium column”. By the way, the db works but just stores the last value in the first column. I think I have a mistake somewhere in the setTableData method, but I run out of the ideas.

I would be very grateful if somebody could help me!

I'm working on a screen flow. The idea is to have a lookup component the user can search a contact. Then I would like to display the information from the Contact (Account Name, Contact Name, Number Email) and I would like to be able to have the user update that information if needed. I just stomped on how it can be done. I know it should be able to be pulled from the record ID in some type of way and maybe use an Assignment to display the information. Can someone guide me on a next step or if anyone has an instructional video would be helpful.
Thanks
You wouldn't be able to display the looked up contact's fields on that screen as soon as you populate that field. That would be something only possible in code (aura component or lwc).
What you can do, however is -
Get Record element after that screen element. (Get Contact, where Id = lookupcomponent.recordId)
Then EITHER:
use the new Fields (BETA) option on another screen Fields (BETA)
(this method is easier, doesn't have as much control and is limited on fields, depending on data type, you can use)
add inputs one by one and set the default values Add Fields One By One
(this method allows more control)
Then, you will need an update element. If you used the Fields (BETA) you can just update the record variable. If you did the inputs one by one, you will need to update the contact and set fields individually.

I looked in the "similar questions" and could not locate one like I have. I'm using Access to print labels for an event and there are 200+ volunteers to whom we will mail out their event package. I'm looking for a way to show all their names (thinking on a form) AND have a check box for the "print label." Once everything I need is checked, I open a report via command button and the selected names are printed on labels. Also, is there a way to store the date / time printed, so I can use that as a "was this label printed? function. I took a crack at what it would look like using Excel (see graphic),
First, create and fill a table holding the name, perhaps some other fields, and a Yes/No field:
ID - FullName - (other fields) - PrintLabel
Then, create a continuous form using this table as source (there is a wizard for this).
Finally, modify your report to use this table as source and specify a filter:
PrintLabel = True
Could someone help me with BrowseTo macro plsease? I cannot figure out one of the arguments in the this macro in ACCESS 2010 which is PathToSubformControl. I have this Form called "frm_navigation":
The names of all Tab are: nav_vacancies, nav_contacts, nav_organizations etc.
The field "Organization name" in the figure will hold the name from another table tbl_organizations. However, the Tab "Organizations" (the third from left) will display all info from the table tbl_organizations.
I would like to program a button that takes me to Organization Tab and set a current record according to the name displayed in the field "Organizations name".
So far I did it via DoCmd.OpenForm but it filters out all other records and opens a new window. I tried to set BrowseTo action as follows:
DoCmd.BrowseTo acBrowseToForm, "frm_Organizations", "frm_navigation.nav_organizations", "[tbl_organizations].[PR_ID]=" & Me.cb_org_name.Value
but I've got runtime error as my PathToSubformControl is wrong. How am I supposed to specify the path? I cannot understand the structure. It's supposed to follow this pattern: MainForm1.Subform1 > Form1.Subform1 but it's not explained what is what.
Thanks
Very late reply, but...
In your code, "frm_navigation.nav_organizations" needs to specify the name of the NavigationSubForm subform control (by default it is NavigationSubForm).
Let me try to re-state your command with generic names:
DoCmd.BrowseTo acBrowseToForm, "frmToDisplayInNavSubCtl", "frmMainFormContainingNavSubFrmCtl.NavSubFrmCtl", ....criteria....
So, in short, you need to go into design view on your frm_navigation form and determine the name of the NavigationSubForm control, not the names of the navigation buttons (e.g., nav_organizations, nav_vacancies, etc.) and use that after the dot, instead of .nav_organizations (the name of the button control).
I'm using Filestore to make uploads in a form.
It's a great implementation but I've a doubt about associating that file uploaded with a register in a table.
When I run the filestore.001.sql, it add 4 tables in Database (filestore_image, filestore_file, filestore_volume, filestore_extension).
Then in anoter table I have:
id
field1
idfile
I was thinking in how to do that association when I submit the form.
Maybe a dsql() and then selecting the last inserted file, but I don't know if this is the best option.
Thanks

When you add a image field to a form, it will return you ID (or list of uploaded file id's) on submission. So theoretically user can upload image and never submit form, hence it wouldn't be associated.
You can have the following table:
id
name
picture_id
and define picture as type image, there should be examples on the site - it will automatically receive ID from the filestore_file table.
There is another way you can do and it's exactly how Filestore_Image is being built. You can make your own model, and link it with necessary image and use that for your image field. Since it's your model, you can now control what happens before inserting, you can override beforeInsert and afterInsert events to build the proper associations.
Both methods have their own uses, pick the one which you like.
I cannot get my dataset to recognise a parameter supplied to it.
I have created a report parameter "ProjectID".
(In Report Parameter Properties, Name="ProjectID", Prompt="ProjectID").
In Dataset Properties|Parameters, Parameter Name="ID", Parameter Value="[#ProjectID]".
When I click on the Filter button in Query Designer, the "Projects with" panel says:
"? ID equals (unspecified)".
But when I run the query I'm not prompted to enter a parameter value, and multiple rows are returned.
I should stress that I'm simply trying to replicate the functionality of a pre-existing report where all this works exactly as expected.
When I diff the rdl files of the two reports there are obvious differences, and I can hack the xml (of the semantic query) so that it works, but I don't really have the understanding of why it's working, or how to replicate the necessary changes via the GUI.
Can someone please give me some pointers - preferably without referring me to the documentation as I've been through this numerous times as well!!
Thanks in advance,
Peter.
p.s. I can post some of the rdl differences if that will help, but wanted to keep my initial post clear and to the point.
OK, so what you need to do is when in the Filter screen of the Query designer, assuming you've already specified a filter in the main pane, such as:
"ID equals (unspecified)"
You need to click on "ID" and a context menu appears with "Edit as Formula", "Prompt" and "Remove Condition".
Select "Prompt", and there you go.
