I need to run a delete query in MS access. I want to run it from the Form, but to run the actual query, I want to use a command button.

When I use the command button wizard, the querys it will only let me use are select queries. The Delete query is not included.

Right click the button and select ‘Build Event’

Enter the following and change to your query name:

DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.OpenQuery ("deletequery")

I’m making a list of financial stuff for our office and when things expire, we’re allowed to throw them away. If we put an expiration date on certain files, is there a way for MS Access to alert us that it’s expired?

Sure. Create a report looking at only items that would be date()+x where x is the amount of days into the future.

How can you get MS access to add the date to a date field automatically? I want it so when I put data into the table i want it so my date field automatically puts the date it was entered into the date field.

1. Go into Design Mode on the table.

2. Create a new field in that table.

3. Give it a data type of Date/Time

4. On the general properties of that field (below) find the Default Value entry and add this:
Now()

That’s it, each time a row is written to that table it will be time stamped with the date and time of day.

I am using Filemaker pro but will be switching to MS Access ASAP! How do you transfer databases saved for pro to be able to open them in access so I wont have to recreate them…?

Does Filemaker pro allow you to export the tables to csv or text format. If it does then you could import these files into Access.

You will need to rebuild any forms or reports in Access though.
