Microsoft Access Error Messages

When capturing and handling errors, you probably think of the Err object, which stores information about the current run-time error. If a form or report encounters an error, you'll find the information you need in an event — the object's Error event to be exact. By default, Access handles action errors without any help from you. On acdataerrcontinue occasion, you might find you want a little more control. When that's the case, take matters into your own hands by usurping the object's Error event. About the Error event Both forms and reports sometimes generate action errors, such as trying to delete a record protected by referential integrity or trying to add a new record without filling in required fields. When this happens, Access displays a predefined warning message that's usually adequate. But if you prefer, you can take charge of the event and force it to do the following: Inhibit the internal message Display a custom message Redirect the application's flow Using the Error event A common form error occurs when you try to save a new record without filling in all required fields (required at the table level). Figure A shows how Access handles this error in a simple form based on the Customers table in Northwind (the sample database that comes with Access). Figure A In this case, the default message is sufficient. In fact, most are. So you probably won't use this event to change the message. Generally, you'll use it to redirect the flow, changing what happens after the Error event occurs. The Error event uses the following syntax: Private Sub object_Error(DataErr As Integer, Response As Integer) End Sub where object is the name of the Form or Report objec

I have created a Database that collates defects. The Primary key is called "DefectID" which takes its number from a defect form that error message is never repeated. Unfortunately ever so often a person will try and input the same defect twice, it goes without saying this would not be allowed as it is set it not allow duplicate entries. My question is, is there a way to create my own message box to pop up when this is attempted?

to validate the data entry by applying desired constraints over the field, it also facilitates users to show the messages in case of any invalid data entry field. By writing simple expression in validation fields you can collate entries from different fields and apply rules over them. Expressions are used in many places to perform calculations, manipulate characters, or test data. You can apply different expression over tables, queries, forms, reports, and macros for validation. This post will describe the most easiest way to apply rules and show messages in case of any invalid data entry. Launch Access 2010, open a table on which you want to apply validation rule. Select the field on which you want to apply field validation. For instance, we want to apply field validation column Marks. Now navigate to Fields tab, from Validation click Field Validation Rule, to write an validation expression You will reach Expression Builder dialog, here you can write expression to validate the field entries. In our case all courses carries 100 marks, so marks obtained must be less than 100, Syntax [Field_Name]
