A Warning/confirmation Message For User Before Printing??
Mar 12, 2006
Hi all,
I am building a simple db from scratch using the limited knowledge i have, and a lot of the information gained from searching these forums as a guest. I've now reached a point where I can't seem to find what I'm looking for, so any help would be gratefully received!!
I have a single table, single form and single report (told you it was simple;)). The table has nearly 2000 records and 2000 pictures (linked). On the form I can print every record with a single click of a command button. This is great, but I would like a message box to popup and confirm the print action, as this is gonna be expensive if its clicked on every record!!
If anybody can help, I would be chuffed!! I searched the forums and can't seem to find anything on this!!
I am trying to create a button to delete record, I have used the wizard and it works fine but now I want to have a confiirmation message to confirm that they really want to delete this record.
below is my code. The prompt works but the record never deletes.
Any Idea's
Private Sub cmdDeleteRec_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdDeleteRec_Click
DoCmd.SetWarnings False If MsgBox("Are you sure you want to delete this record?", vbYesNo, "Warning.........") = vbYes Then Me!frm_Entry.SetFocus DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord DoCmd.SetWarnings True Else DoCmd.SetWarnings True End If
Is there any way to customize append query confirmation message? Unclicking Confirm Tools-->Options-->Edit/Find-->Confirm-Action Queries disables all warning messages.
My query takes some records from one table and append them to another table. When I run the query, first warning message says "Warning you r about to run an append query that will modify data in your table" (this is the message I do not want to see) and then if OK is clicked, the message says "you are about to append XXX rows...(this is the message I would like to customize)
can someone please modify the following code to add a warning message to an add button.................this add button allows to add details filled in a form...
Private Sub addrec_Click() Dim strSQL As String DoCmd.SetWarnings False
I use a close button to close a form. There is list box in this Form. If the list box is empty, then simly close the form. However, if there are projects in the list box, I want to give a warning. If the user say YES, then everything in the listbox will be deleted and the form will be closed. If user say NO, tehn the form will not be closed. They then can use anotehr button to save teh projects.
I wrote the follwing code. The delete portion itself works. But it seesm comfused with msgbox. Could you pelase help me correct this code? Thank you very much for your help.
lbDestination -- list box name
Private Sub Close_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Close_Click
If IsNull(Me.lbDestination) Then DoCmd.Close Exit Sub End If
If MsgBox("You have unsaved initiatives. Are you sure you want to close?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton2, _ "Delete?") = vbYes Then
Dim rsDestination As DAO.Recordset Set rsDestination = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("tbInit", dbOpenDynaset)
rsDestination.MoveFirst Do While Not rsDestination.EOF
I have struggled with this for so long now I hope someone can help. I have a form called frm_Collections which is run from the query (qry_Collections). When I type into the Reg field in the Form I would like the user to know if the Reg details have already been used in a previous record. The database can have duplicates in this field, however a "Warning Message" would promt some investigation. I have tried loads of DLookup on Before Update, but really need setting of in the right direction. Thanks
I apologise if this has been answered, I couldn't find anywhere else on the forum.
On the data access page it gives an annoying warning that says 'This website is using your identity to access a data source. If you trust this website, click OK to continue, otherwise click cancel'.
Is there a way I can suppress this message? It looked cool at the start, but now it's just annoying....
I have an Access 2010 db on a shared network drive. All users accessing the db are running Windows 7 OS and have a licensed corporate version of Access 2010. The advanced options "Shared", "Edited record" and "Open dabases by using record-level locking" are turned on. Additionally, the locking time limits are set to their default levels. If a user selects the save icon after making additions or updates, the following waring message appears:
Costar Job Database can't save design changes or save to a new database object because another user has the file open. To save you design changes or to save to a new object, you must have exclusive access to the file.Since I developed the db, I am the only one that makes design or object changes. I know that users don't need to select the save icon to update the db, but I don't want them to "freak out" if they select save and see the message. Is there any way to prevent the message from being displayed?
I have a temporary table within my access database. I have a macro button that makes the table (thus deleting the old one in the process) and then appends information from three other queries to it.I want to stop the standard warning message from coming up. The message I get is below. I have already cleared the action queries check box so the warnings for the making table (if no previous table exists) query and appending data query have disappeared. However the below message still pops up when the make table query begins to try and delete the old table. How I can make it go away?
"The query you are about to run is a make-table query. Unlike most queries that displays data in Datasheet view, a make-table query creates a table and copies specific records from one or more tables and queries. If the table already exists, the query will replace the structure and contents of the table.If your intention is to create or replace a table, click Yes. To avoid being prompted when you run such queries, click the File tab, then click Options. In the Access Options dialog box, click Client Settings. Under Editing, clear the Action queries check box.
I would like to show a Message box to an operator when a certain number of records have been reached in a subform e.g when 36 records have been entered I want a message to appear telling the operator that a certain report can then be raised. Whether this is possible
I have a questions database. When user is filling out the form, the following fields are required: Questions, Author, Type of Question and Answer selected. Answer is selected by clicking on the button next to the Answers. If these fields are not filled out, a user gets a prompt saying that so and so field is blank. If have a problem, it works for all required fields except for Answer. Below is my code. I have attached a screenshot with Author and Answers blank. I only get a warning about the Author and not the Answers.
Code: Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) nullerr = 0 strnull = "" If IsNull(Me.txtQuestion) Then nullerr = 1
I do have a DB that takes some data from Stripes and imports them into access. Since this will be a multi user DB I want to make a warning form.
Basically a user will do the download, I want a form or a pop up message that will show to the next user that will open the DB while the download process is ongoing, to see that the download data process is still ongoing, That he needs to wait until the data download has finished.
I have a table (ComponentT) of different device components a user can select from ( generators, gearboxes, etc.)
The table has 3 fields - ComponentName, ComponentType, ComponenentDetails
I have a query returning all the ComponentDetails values.
I then have a combobox that uses this query as a row source.
The user can select different components they want from the combobox. Once something is selected, it is added to a new table - UserSelectedComponentsT
As a device can have only one gearbox or one generator etc. I want a warning messagebox to be displayed if the user tries to select a generator from the combobox when one has been previously selected.
I am in the UK and the company i work for moved to Budapest and so did my access database and is now on their server. Today a user in Budapest has come with a problem (see attachment). I really don't understand what has happened here...all the user is doing is clicking on a button, which has a hyperlink to another form, no printing involved at all. One of their colleagues in Budapest can run the report with no problems, do you think the problem is most likely to do with their computer settings...thanks for any responses.
Is there a way to send another user a message within Access? (Like "Instant Messenger" or Lotus Notes "SameTime") If you have any experience or info I would appreciate some info. Thanks in advance!
My database at the moment counts how many records of each Pupil is entered into the system. When a pupil has been entered into the system 10 times I would like a Notification Message to come up, are such messages possible?
I am trying to create a realtionship between two tables so I can use both of them in a query. The problem is when I attemp to do this I get an error message that says "The Microsoft Jet database engine stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time." Problem is there is not another user. Anyone has an idea what the problem is and how to fix it??? Thanks RCox
This is the second time I am posting this thread as I didn't receive any replies the first time. Since then, I've realized that the problem I've described below is happening on a computer that has a full installation of Adobe Acrobat 7.0. None of the other db users have this. Maybe this will help.
I have a split Access 2000 database. 15 users are able to view and enter data with no problems. One user is continually receiving this message:
The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Error accessing file. Network connection may have been lost.
This message is peculiar to her pc. We're running Windows XP Professional. She has not, in fact, lost the network connection as she can still access other files located on our network. The network administrator has no clue why this is happening. If I reload the front end application on her hard drive, she's able to use the database for a couple of days, and then the message appears again. Does anyone have any ideas? I would much appreciate any input. Thanks so much.
I have look around in the forums, but I haven't found what I was looking for. I just maybe didn't use the correct search criteria. But anyway this is what I am looking for.
When a certain user Logon into the database. I would like the have a message sent just to that one particular user. Bottom line is. When a report is due and that user is responsible for it, I would like a notification go to that user.
I have a field that is pre filled in with a value. The name is "Business".Then there is a combo box with various values. If the user would select a value that does not match with values that can be selected if in "business" a value is selected, it should show a message that the selection is wrong and user needs to select the correct one.
Example:If in the field "Business" the value "Food" is selected, then the possible values to be selected in the combobox would be: Fruit or Meet or Fast Food. If the value in "Business" would be "Wood" only selections could be made: Talble or Chair or Cabinet.So, if a user select "Food' in "Business" and in the combo box "Chair", it should show a message that the wrong selection was made and don't let them use the wrong one.
