Introducing the Automated Data Entry, a very flexible and smart form for the users, why would I say flexible? Users can choose their desired header from their table source eg. “Name”, “Age”, “Address”, “Birthday” etc. see image below.

Choose your Header

From InputBox highlight or select your Column Header then click OK, you’ll see the data entry form like the example above.

You can write anything from the TextBox generated which is subject to your header and ADD or EDIT your data  but, what is the special feature of this form? The special feature is when you click the OPTIONS Button.

 

OPTIONS

You’ll see the Header, Object, and Validation. The HEADER is your header in your table, while object and validation are subject into different types. From OBJECT you can use Textbox or ComboBox(dropdown).

OBJECT

In Textbox-type anything can be written (except when validated) while Dropdown or Combobox, the users limit their writing (when you filldropdown).

VALIDATION

Validation-type there are 4 types of validation that can be used. “General, Number, Date, Time”

You can validate or limit your USERS for writing anything:

General – anything can be written
Number – only numbers can be written (eg. 1,2,3,1.2,.01)
Date – only date can be written (eg. 1/23/1993, January 23, 1993)
Time – only time can be written (1:00 PM, 13:00)

VALIDATION SAMPLE

Close the Option and close the Data Entry Form to take effect your new settings.

Before writing your data please fill first your Drop Down button from your source of data. To fill it, click the “Fill Drop Down” button and highlight or select your list of data. Example below.

Fill the Drop-Down Button

CLICK OK!

RESULT

You are now ready to write securely just click the ADD button when you finished your data.

 

Now, everyone makes a mistake, how about edit your data, can you? Yes, you can! You can edit by clicking the EDIT button, change the ID number and it will help you find your matched data. Click MODIFY button and that’s it.

ERRORS WOULD BE ENCOUNTERED:

 

Before selecting your header always insert “ID” all caps (not “Id”, “iD”, “id” but “ID” case-sensitive) as your very first header in your table to avoid errors. Because ID column is your guide to write your data smoothly and organized.

Always create a table (go to Insert, then click Table) for your data to prevent some abnormalities or errors in the process.
