Accessing Fields In Continuous Forms
Feb 8, 2006
Hi Guys,
I currently have a subform which relates to the primary key of the main form.
This subform contains possible 'Answers' which related back the main form/table 'Question'. Each possible answer has a true of false field to show whether or not it is the correct possible answer from the question field.
Currently the subform performs correctly, in that it shows up the 3 possible answers for each question... (in continuous form view)ie all three appear at once in 'form view' - but in the subform the only one answer and one true or false attribute appear at once.
Here is where the problem is - i need to be able to access the individual field values for these 3possible answers (in VB code). I cant work out how to do this? Does anyone know how access calls them? What will the checkboxname be? The problem is because there is only one checkbox on the form in 'Design View' (to see if the answer is the correct one), but then 3 in 'Form View', I cant work out how access distinguishes between them.
Many thanks
Ross

I have a bound continuous tabular form,However, based on data content in one field of a record, I want a checkbox in the same record enabled, so the user can check it if necessary. I have created a record set using the form as shown below, and I am looping through each record. To show that my code is referring to the field with required data content, I display it as a message box and it works, yet my checkbox does not enable.
I have the code in the form_load event, however, for testing purposes I have it behind a button.If I am seeing this properly, the code behind the button enables the checkbox for ALL records once the criteria in the required field is true, and based on the last record, which has no data content, it disables the checkbox in ALL records. I also have the PK ID for each record hidden in the form. Can I utilize that to target the checkbox of each individual record??
Form Detail
-Form does not allow additions or deletions. Edits allowed
-All fields are disabled and locked
-I only want the check box to unlock if data is found in the "RequiredField" as referred to below. I have also tried if not isNull(requiredfield.value) then -enable checkbox, which yields the same results
Here is my code
Code:
Dim rstMyForm As DAO.Recordset
Set rstMyForm = Forms!MyForm.Form.Recordset
rstMyForm.MoveFirst
Do While Not rstMyForm.EOF
If Not RequiredField.Value = "" Then
[code]...

I have a form I would like to sort by:
first - by App_Flag (a yes/no field) - have all the clients with "yes" on top
second - by App_Date - from the earliest to the latest
The query sorts it fine but the form does not - even if I requery the form (added a requery button).
Can a macro or coding make it sort it the way I need it?

I'm trying to use the following code to programmatically sort four fields on the continous subform:
Code:
Me.SPlanChange_03_OFFSET.Form.OrderBy = "AOBJ ASC, ORG ASC, AVAILABLE DESC, AGFND ASC"
Me.SPlanChange_03_OFFSET.Form.OrderByOn = True
It appears that the code works partially - the values in the "AOBJ" field are as they be and so are the values in "AVAILABLE" field. The values in the "ORG" and "AGFND" fields will not sort.
Is what I'm trying to do even possible?

i have a continues form that lists all my active items and I'd like to use it to quickly check if they have all the data inserted, ie entries in each separate table. it looks like this
I perform a simple check on form load chk = DCount("[phID]", "preh", "[phbID] = " & Me.tID) where me.tid is the item ID and this gives me 0 or 1 and writes ok, or missing into the appropriate box.Problem is it tkaes value for the first item and repeats it for eah other, so I get ok or missing throughout the continuos form.How can i force a check for each line?

I have a continuous subform recording the information of various wireless products for an employee embedded in an employee main form. Please see screen shot enclosed.
There is a check box "BYOD/Personal" on the subform. I want to hide a number fields when this check box on independent record is checked. However, if I use the following codes, the changes apply to all records under that employee.
Private Sub BYOD/Personal_AfterUpdate()
If BYOD/Personal.Value = True then
Me.Provider.Enabled = False
Me.XXX.Enabled = False....etc.
Else
Me.Provider.Enabled = True
Me.XXX.Enabled = True....etc.
End If
End Sub
How can I just disable those fields on the subform of a specific record when the BYOD/Personal field for that record is checked?

I have a database with a number of tables 2 of which are:
# Personal Members Table (with all their details and addresses and contact details)
# Organisation Table (including who are members of this Org)
My conundrum is this; In the Org table I have just created a 'Treasurer' Field and want to choose a name from the Members Table so that I do not have to put the data in twice (which is what has happened in the past.)
I have linked the tables and but within the Members table the Field names for the Personal Name are as follows <FirstName> <LastName> and there is another for the <Org> they are connected with...
In the Members table it would also be good to have the ability to hover the mouse over the <org> field (or click) on it and then underneath a box appears with everyone who is a member of that org. I have seen this working on another database but cannot seem to replicate it here for some reason?

How do I use fields in related tables to create a calc field? The wizard only shows me the current table's fields. Can I do create me desired field by manually creating the calculation and bypassing the wizard? Or is this another restriction of Access?

HI,
I am using ms access 97 for the first time. We have an application which is created in MS Access 97....in which we have lots of forms,linked tables,queries,macros etc.
This application is used to Update certain information to our Database Oracle server . Now, say this application is updating our Oracle database ABC123 , now we are migrating from this server onto another Oracle server XYZ 123 .
All i need to do is to modify this mdb file and make it point to XYZ123 so that updations happen in XYZ123 instead of ABC123.
When I trying to open any forms,Queries Macros...Its saying I do not have Permissions.
For eg : when I m trying to Open a Form using 'Design' Button it says
" You dont have Permission to read <form name>
You need to have Read Design Permission in order to view the same".
Nobody here knows anything about this application and nobody has userid or password to administrator user acct(which I hope is there).
If I am able to open any forms which contain the DSN name I guess i will able to achive the redirection...But when I am trying to open any form it gives me the above error message.
Please help me with this.
Thanks a ton in advance.
Regards,
SS

Hi
i have a slight problem. In my tool i'm creating, i have a workproduct form and a button that takes me to another form that allows me to enter in defects to that work product (which works). The thing is, if the defect is found in a 'coded' work product, some fields will appear for new data, and other fields will disappear. On the work product form, there will be a field that displays if the work product is code or not (taken from a table) and the fields that will appear (and disappear) are on the defect form. I want the tool to look on that work product form to see if the 'phase' field is 'code', if it is, then show/hide fields on the defect form. Heres my way of interpreting what i want in code form. I hope you can gather whats going on from this:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
If !Form.preMeetingForm2.phaseName = "Code" Then
lineNumber.Visible = True
lineNumber_Label.Visible True
function2.Visible = True
function_Label.Visible = True
page.Visible = False
page_Label.Visible = False
section2.Visible = False
section_Label.Visible = False
End If
Note: this Form_Open event is on the defect form (where the fields will appear and disappear)
Thanks in advance :)

Generally for doing filtering on the reports, we attach a form that gets activated on opening of the report(i.e, by attaching the event to open a form on opening the report). But I would like to know if there is any way that the report can be opened on some event fired in the form?

Is it possible to sort a continuous form by two fields?
ie. If two records have the same value in one field, look at the second field to see which one is displayed first.
I was thinking that it might help to combine the two text boxes into one (a not visible text box) and sort it by that, but I don't know how to sort by an unbound, not visible text box either...
Any suggestions?
cheers, joe

How can i apply the following code to the immediate record in my subform. I would like when the assigned check box value = true, then the fields for that record become locked.
Ive written the following code to an onclick event for a check box labeled "assigned" on my form, the problem is it executes on all the records in my form.
Q. How do i apply the code to only the immediate record?
Private Sub Assigned_Click()
If Me.Assigned.Value = True Then
Me.Serial_Number.Enabled = False
Me.Component_Group_ID.Enabled = False
Me.TypeID.Enabled = False
Me.Description.Enabled = False
Me.Status.Enabled = False
Else
Me.Serial_Number.Enabled = True
Me.Component_Group_ID.Enabled = True
Me.TypeID.Enabled = True
Me.Description.Enabled = True
Me.Status.Enabled = True
End If
End Sub

I have a code to add links to files into a field, I recently migrated from Windows 7 to 8 and the name of the folders in 8 are different; therefore the database I have does not find the linked file anylonger.
To avoid this happening in future, I would like to have the option for the user to set the folder path through maybe a table and then the link will refer to the settings in the table.
Currently I am using the following code:
Private Sub AddLinkDoc_Click()
Dim strFilter As String
Dim strInputFileName As String
Dim varDirectory As String
varDirectory = "C:UsersMarco TagliaferriDocumentsBA CityflyerCrew SchedulerDocumentationDocs"
[Code] ......

I have a form that I have exported certain fields into a word doc (it is up and running just fine). I created bookmarks in word and put some VBA into my access form, so when I click on 'Create word report' it pops up and automatically populates the record I am on. Here is the tough question,
How to make this work with a continuous form? My main form has several subforms, one being a continuous form. The main form shows one bridge at a time. The sub continuous form shows information for all of the bridges spans (could be anywhere from 1 to 9).

I have a drop down box on a continuous form called (cmbItem).When the users choose Option 6 (Other) and on the open event I wish to show another field txtOther which allows the user to give a description of what 'other' means but I only want to show the field for that record. (the user could potentially have more than one record as other)Using conditional formatting I have managed to change the colours of the box so that the background is the same colour as the form unless other is chosen when it reverts to white. However I can't do the same with the border as this is not one of the options provided.

I have just created a new continuous sub form within a main form to display bookings of a particular date. The date field is in the main form, when updated, the data in the sub from updates. Before this, I was using a list box, however I changed to a continuous sub form since I wanted to have conditional formatting.
Now I'd like to have the option to choose a row of data from the sub form and then enable/disable a command button on the main form depending on certain critera...i'd like to know what is the best way to let the user choose a particular row of data...
i have thouhght of a command button or a option button, but it seems that the control wouldn't have a unique identity pertaining to the row..
any ideas appreciated..
many thanks..

I have a form where I'm entering data relating to each inbound shipment such as date of arrival, vessel name, etc...however i'd like also to enter invoice numbers and values that cover each shipment. one shipment can have more than one invoice. this means that for one shipment i need to enter , for example, 10 invoice numbers and 10 values.
I thought abt having two tables...one table having the shipment data and another table that keeps the list of invoice numbers/values of the shipments (having a foreign key relating to the shipments table).
now...i have an issue on how i'm entering the invoice numbers/values on the form..since the number of invoices might vary with each shipment...i thought abt having a continuous form...i set up one with two unbound fields...invoice number and value...but as soon as i enter data on one row, all the rows become with same value. any feedback on how should i approach this issue?
am not quite sure at what stage would the data in the continuous data be appended to the table..i'd like to have it save to table as soon as a command button in main form is clicked..
appreciate feedback....thanks! :)

I have my application split, BE and FE. This is a form with a subform.For both I have the properties set to
Data Entry NO
Allow additions NO
Allow Deletions NO
Allow Edits NO
anyone person can open the form, but when a second person tries to open the same form we get the standard, locked by user or user does not have permission.If user 1 logs out then user 2 can get in. So it seems not a permission issue but some setting I have wrong. maybe at the query or table level?
