Access Forms Question
Jul 6, 2005
hi all,
I have a form in my access database that gives the option to update the records with it.
i now want to add a new field that when ever i use the form to update the record the new date will enter the date field.
Wwhen i choose to show as default the date it does not know to put it in the record & when i bound it with the database field i cant seem to add the new date.
any ideas?
Cheers,
Sid

tblProduct

name = text
InHand = integer
Price = float
frmNew
txtname = textbox
txtInhand = textbox
txtPrice = textbox.
I need to coy frmNew.txtname into tblProduct.name and so forth.

I've been using the following code successfully in Access 2003 & now I need to migrate to Access 2010. The purpose of the code is to use the items that the user selects in the list box to build the criteria of a query. Access 2010 keeps giving me a syntax error when I try to run the query & I don't know why:
My code is:
On Error GoTo Err_Command151_Click
' Declare variables
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim strCriteria As String
Dim strSQL As String
[Code] .....
The syntax error I get in Access 2010 is:
Syntax Error in query expression 'SELECT * FROM
qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK WHERE
qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK.Rep ortableName IN('Adbri
Masonry NSW');'

Where can I find the Hex or RGB value for the blue colour that Access 2010 uses by default for buttons on forms? I need to change some buttons to yellow (I know the code for that) but later change them back to the previous shade of blue, which is shown in the Properties pane "Accent 1, Lighter 40%".
By clicking in the standard colors area at the bottom of the colour chooser I can find a very similar blue #D6DFEC but it doesn't look quite right. And the "accent" colour does not give me a Hex value.Is that "usual" blue even one colour? How can I reset a button to that style having changed it?

I am creating a simple data entry form wherein the user will enter the product id and on change the product description and retail price must be displayed.
When the order quantity is entered, the total cost need to be calculated. I am able to do this using DLookUp and simple multiplication.
However, after doing the above, I need another row to appear so that I can accomplish the same for another product.

I am developing a small database for use in a multi-user environment: I have split the tables off and am testing with two copies of the front-end on different machines. All seems to work well except on one form.
On this form, the value of a bound control (exposed as a number of radio buttons) is used to make related controls on the form visible or invisible. I use the AfterUpdate event to trigger appropriate VBA code to accomplish this; it works well.
However if two users have the same form open at the same record (unlikely, but not impossible), and User A changes the value of the control via the radio buttons, Access will eventually propagate the change to User B's copy of the form but the AfterUpdate event will not be triggered and the form becomes inconsistent. I understand that events are only triggered when a user makes a change to a control; how can I be alerted when Access makes a change?

Two forms have matching fields (ContractID), and each form has different data displayed from different tables (SQL views, actually).
I want Access 2007 to stay on the same ContractID when the user switches to a different form.

I have an access form with tab control pages each with embedded forms.In one page I have a list of records as a datasheet form with the record identifier field configured as a hyperlink. When I click on this it passes its value to a form field in the form in the following tab page (works without the hyperlink but its a useful way of highlighting which field to click) which is a display/edit form of the details of the individual record. The Subroutine which does this sets the focus on this field it is passing the value to on the other form and the 'On Got Focus' event in that triggers the query that fills the editor form.
When I click back on the following tab to select another record to view/edit, the identifier value of the other record is passed to the other form but the data displayed in the rest form doesn't change. I understand this is because the field with the 'On Got Focus' never lost focus and so the query function was not called. To correct this I tried adding the same function call to the 'On Change' event however this does not work (the field is a text box set to 'locked' if that is relevant).I can get the form to do a new query properly if I click on a different field in the form before going back to the list tab or (as this is removing the focus allowing the On Got Focus to work again) if I click on a button to select a different record (which just takes me back to the list form).
Is there any way I can get this to work without having to manually remove the focus from the problem field? I have tried setting its On Got Focus event to move the focus to another field after the query function call however this prevents the Setfocus line in the code in the previous form from working. Here is a snippet of my code below.This code is for the list form and passes a value to the editing form:
Private Sub SalesID_Click()
Forms!Mainform.Requery
Forms!Mainform!Sales_Admin_Form!Sales_Admin_SalesI D.Value = SalesID.Value
Forms!Mainform!Sales_Admin_Form.SetFocus
Forms!Mainform!Sales_Admin_Form!Sales_Admin_SalesI D.SetFocus
[code]....

I am doing an assignment and I am stuck at this validation rule. So in my database I 've got one table named horse and the rules I am supposed to set are these two:
1:A horse cannot be added that does not already have a Dam and Sire existing in the database unless either or both are not known.
2:A horse must not be deleted if it is the Sire or Dam of an existing horse.
I guess I am supposed to create a data entry form for table horse and apply these two rules in the form, but what should I do to achieve that? Seems a bit complicated cause the entering need to check some other fields (sire and dam) in the table..
My table looks like this
Horse_id Name Colour Sire Dam Born Died Gender
101 Flash white 201 301 2001 0 S
102 Star brown 201 302 2002 0 M
201 boxer grey 401 501 1991 0 S
301 Daisy white 401 502 1992 0 M
I know it might seem too simple to you but I am a full-time worker doing this online course. The consulting resouce for me and the time are both quite limited.

I have a Main (Home) form that has a sub navigation form (frmNavigationSubform).Need to access 3 forms. Forms 1,2 and 3. Also, have 1 options form.
Subform has 2 Navigation buttons. NavigationButton2 and NavigationButton3.
NavigationButton 2 Navigation Target Name = 1 (frm #1).
NavigationButton 3 has no Navigation Target Name. This is passed on when user picks Option1 or Option2 form options pop screen.
Now I can pass the name to the Navigation Buttons2 but the subform does not show it. I have to click on the Navigation Buttons2 again for it to show. What I want is when the user makes the choice in the options screen the name is passed and form 2 or 3 should load/show.

im creating a database for a team that run courses. someone else started the database but never finished it. I have 2 tables which i will refer to as Contacts & Training Courses. I also have a form that displays the information from the Contacts Table. All the information that is being displayed on the form is showing up in text boxes. I want to now add a drop down list box in the form so when its on a particular record showing the information about that contact it will also show me a list of what training courses they run. Both the contacts table and the training table have a Company ID field and the numbers for them are the same in both table.
I have tried using a query but its not working and all i get so far is the contacts showing up and the courses ID repeated several times.
I hope someone can help me

Hello from Greece.
I have a little problem. Let's say I have a Tubular (Continues) Form with these Textboxes (assigned to fields in a Table Customers) :
SerialNo Name Date_Of_Birth Value
1 Theodore 9/12/76 5
2 Theodore 9/5/70 6
3 John 4/4/90 3
4 Maria 7/4/90 2
5 Anna 12/5/05 3
Then I apply filters (By right clicking and filter by selection). Let's say multiple filters for Name and Date_Of_Birth.
Is there any possible way, after the filtering, to have the Sum of the Value of each record (filtered Continues form) in a seperate textbox?
Thank a lot ...

Please help!!
I am creating a program that will allow the user to select a sale and pull up only those product items associated to that sale in the details. Any help would be appreciated. Then with in the details section the user will/should be able to enter in the Quantity needed to order. Any suggestions on how to do this. My tblSale does provide the data needed so how do I get the data to go to the form?
I am new to this forum so if I have not asked properly I apologise now.
The Database is attached. Form Orders is the form that I am using to accomplish my task. The getproducts4Sale Query is the information needed.

Hello,
I work at a library and we often add books to the library. Each time we have to fill out a form and fax out multiple copies keep a copy. Today I made a database and form in access to do this, so it won't be done on paper anymore. It is actually the first thing I have ever used access for. I have 1 problem now, I need to make it as simple as possible for everyone using the form. I am trying to make it soyou can click on a shortcut from the desktop and open just the form without having to open access and then enter in the data. Is this possible? I have attempted to save as a different type, export as a different type and nothing works. Can someone give me a little expertise on this? Thanks.

I have a 2 part question. I'm looking to enter the names of different files that I have for a particular client so that they appear/pop up as a list in a subform in "real time". I'd also like those file names to be hyperlinks to their actual location on my server. Is there any way to do this?
