Apply A Sort

Oct 21, 2005

Hello Everyone

I have a form with a "Keyword Search" This functions great. It applies a filter when I do the search. Which is what I want.
But when I'm done, I want the filter removed. I can do this with a macro "ShowAllRecords". This works fine when I click on the command button it is applied to. The only thing is, it is no longer sorted by the "Auto" number field :( . I would like this to be done automatically when I remove the filter.

Is there any way to do this without clicking on my field, and then clicking on the "sort" button on the toolbar?

Thanks for any help.

:p Up to now, I've been able to find the answers to my questions by doing a search on this forum.
So thanks to everyone who has been answering everyone's questions

Can I Do A Sort Within A Sort On Combo Boxes?

Oct 16, 2006

Hi all,

I have a form in Access 2K that properly displays city, state and zip codes. As I type in each letter of a city's name into the combo box, I get the first city in the sorted list displayed (autofills). That's fine when there is only one zip code for a city, but when I enter "chic" for chicago I still get the first chicago zip code in my table.

It sure would be nice if I could do a "sort within a sort" so that if there were two or more records with the same city name then that whole group would drop down so I could choose one of the other zip codes. If this is doable, kindly point me to an example as I need all the help I can get.

Thanks in advance for any responses.

Cannot Apply Filter?

Mar 27, 2007

I have a query where on an IIF result a field is displayed or an "OK"

I have an imported field of 6 chrs where I only want the left 5 so I use
Loc:=Left([Location],5) ,

I then compare the result in, MoveTo: to another fixed field [PreferLoc]

MoveTo: IIf([Loc]=[PreferLoc],"OK",[PreferLoc])

I wish to citeria out all the "OK" values so I have <>"OK" in the critria section but when I try to run the query I am presented with a selection box asking for Loc
This Query feeds a report so I set the filter to yes in the report properties and use [MoveTo]<>"OK" as the filter and this works great until I close and reopen the app where the filter has gone ?
Can anyone advise where I am going wrong with my query and or my report ?

thanks in advance

Survey - Check All That Apply

May 23, 2007

I will have the following tables:

tblSurvey
tblQuestions
tblAnswers
tblResponses
QuestionID -PK
SurveyTakerID - PK
Response

You get the idea - a normalized table.

Anyway for questions that state "check all that apply" I could either store in the Response Field a yes, or a no (or a number code for those answers) OR simply store the yes values for ones that are checked. Seems like the latter, but for querying later, will I run into problems? I have had different views based on reviewing posts.

ADP/ Apply/filter Error

Jun 13, 2006

Hi,

I am working on an ADP ( first time working with this ). I have a form that is based on a parametized query.

The record source for the form is the parametized query which works fine the first time it is brought up. When the user wants to change the client number, a button "change client" is clicked and the event that gets triggered is openform=("edit client")...... Well, instead of being prompted, I get the error "The ApplyFilter action contiains a filter name that cannot be applied".... When I do a right -click on that same button, and "remove filter "I can get my prompt, but I dont want to keep doing that. I am not sure how to remove the filter from this button. I am not sure what the error message is telling me. Thanks for your help.

Apply Filter In ACCDR

May 6, 2015

I have created a runtime setup package for a friend to let her use my Access 2010 application, without having to purchase Access 2010. However, the ApplyFilter macro in one of the forms doesn't work in the runtime environment. The message suggested I use a SelectObject before ApplyFilter but that gave me another error.

Apply Changes From Date Changed

Jun 12, 2014

I have a database that contains a table with all tasks made in our team and the time it takes to perform the task. I have another table with month, year and value in which I put month after month the volumes that each task handles. So, in a query I multiply the time to perform the task and the volume; month after month I have different results. However "the time to perform the task" may vary depending on processes improvements that we made. If before I had 5 minutes to perform the task and now I have 2, I change it and then the results on the query are changed for all months. I do not know if there is a way to specify that that change must be applied from the month where it is updated to the following months and not retroactively.

Apply A Filter To A Recordset

Whenever the last line is executed, i.e. rset2=rset1.OpenRecordset, I get the following error message:<<<Too few parameters, Expected 2>.. It used to work before? Maybe an issue with my library?

Apply 'save Formatted' To Reading?

Jul 2, 2007

I have a DB with tables where the primary key fields are autoincremented, but with formatting applied.

Formatting is for example "CC"000000 so record 1 will be CC000001.
(each table has a different alpha prefix)

This works fine, except the database content is being read by another application, and it sees only the 1, 2, 3 etc.
Exporting the data to Excel format proves that this is due to Access not the other application.

However, if I export to Excel format, and tick the "Save Formatted" option, the data exported is as I require, CC000001, CC000002 etc.

Is there a setting or way to make Access present the data when it is read by another application to be the 'formatted' version of the data?

Apply A DoCmd Command To A Different Form

Dec 20, 2005

Hi,
OK my main form is unbound and I have a subform in it which is shown as a datasheet. What I'm trying to do is have a list box control at the top that allows the user to filter the records shown in the subform.

Q1. Do I need to have this set-up like this? Is it possible to just use one form? I have tried doing this but when I add my list box, lables etc to the top of the form or the header they just do not appear in datasheet view.

Q2. If I do need to use a subform how do I reference it when using DoCmd.ApplyFilter from my main form:

DoCmd.ApplyFilter , "DrawingNum = '32-35612'"

At the moment this gives an error saying that the action or method is invalid because the form is unbound.

Thanks for your time,
RCurtin

'Exceeds The Limit Of 1,000 Row (actions) For A Macro' But Does Not Apply!

Jun 17, 2005

Hi.
I have a table used for years. I added new fields bringing number to 160.
When I go to insert another row, I get message saying 'Row inserted in the grid exceeds limit of 255 rows for table or 1,000 rows (actions) for a macro.'

BUT as the number of records had not increased and I am under the 255 limit why the error message?

I tried in vain to copy and compact/repair the database, but still no luck.

Ideas?

How Do I 'copy' A Form Design And Apply It To A Different Table?

Sep 23, 2006

Hi!
I am making a form that will be composed of two subforms. Each subform will be based on a differrnt table, however the tables are identicle as far as the number of columns. I designed form_1 to be based on table_1. Now, is there a way to copy form_1 (which will be changed to form_2 in the copied version) and redirect it to table_2?

I tried copy and pasting form_1, opened it in design view, looked at the Form properties, specifically: Data-> Record Source, and changed it to table_2, but.....the form didn't pick up table_2 field names, values, etc. I am guessing this is not the way to do this but how does one do this?
Thanks
John

Apply Filter To Control Button On A Form

Oct 11, 2004

I am trying to create a form with control buttons on the form for all the letters of the alphabet.
When a user clicks on the button for A, I would like them to only see records that starts with an "A".
I assume that I should apply an event to the button's OnClick-property, with a filter, but I can't seem to
get it right...any suggestions would be very much appreciated!

Apply Filter From Subform To Form By DATE

Sep 21, 2005

Hello everyone.
I am having trouble with applying filter on 2 date fields in form. I have succeeded by applying fiter on report by Date, but I just can't seem to work it out on Form!
I believe there has to be something to do with the DoCmd code.

I have a main form (frmRate) which has fields (txtDate & txtValidity) that contain dates.
I have a subform called (frmSearchRateCustomer) which has 4 fields (txtStartDate, txtEndDate, txtStartDate2, txtEndDate2) where the data range should be filled in as search criteria. I have also an additional combobox (cboCustomer) where user can select customer as a search criteria as well.
I have a button that has to do the Search in frmRate.
The combobox criteria works very well, just the date filtering is not working. I am pasting my code as follows:

Code:Private Sub cmdSearch_Click()On Error GoTo Err_cmdSearch_ClickDim strCustomer As StringDim strFilter As StringDim stDocName As StringDim strForm As StringDim strField As String 'Name of your Order field.Dim strWhere As String 'Where condition for OpenReport.Const conDateFormat = "#dd/mm/yyyy#"Dim strField2 As String 'Name of your Arrival field.Dim strWhere2 As String 'Where condition for OpenReport.Const conDateFormat2 = "#dd/mm/yyyy#" strForm = "frmRate" strField = "txtDate" strField2 = "txtValidity" ' For the Order Date Search Criteria Date range If IsNull(Me.txtStartDate) Then If Not IsNull(Me.txtEndDate) Then 'End date, but no start. strWhere = strField & " < " & Format(Me.txtEndDate, conDateFormat) End If Else If IsNull(Me.txtEndDate) Then 'Start date, but no End. strWhere = strField & " > " & Format(Me.txtStartDate, conDateFormat) Else 'Both start and end dates. strWhere = strField & " Between " & Format(Me.txtStartDate, conDateFormat) & " And " & Format(Me.txtEndDate, conDateFormat) End If End If ' Debug.Print strWhere 'For debugging purposes only. ' For the Arrival Date Search Criteria Date rangeIf IsNull(Me.txtStartDate2) Then If Not IsNull(Me.txtEndDate2) Then 'End date, but no start. strWhere2 = strField2 & " < " & Format(Me.txtEndDate2, conDateFormat2) End If Else If IsNull(Me.txtEndDate2) Then 'Start date, but no End. strWhere2 = strField2 & " > " & Format(Me.txtStartDate2, conDateFormat2) Else 'Both start and end dates. strWhere2 = strField2 & " Between " & Format(Me.txtStartDate2, conDateFormat2) & " And " & Format(Me.txtEndDate2, conDateFormat2) End If End If If IsNull(Me.cboCustomer.Value) Then strCustomer = "Like '*'" Else strCustomer = "='" & Me.cboCustomer.Value & "'" End If ' Build filter string strFilter = "[txtCustomerName] " & strCustomer DoCmd.OpenForm strForm, acNormal, , strWhere ' for date DoCmd.OpenForm strForm, acNormal, , strWhere2 ' for date stDocName = "frmRate" DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, acNormal ' Apply filter to report With Forms![frmRate] .Filter = strFilter .FilterOn = True End WithExit_cmdSearch_Click: Exit SubErr_cmdSearch_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_cmdSearch_Click End Sub

I have used the same code as I have used for my Report, just changed few things like rpt --> frm etc...

Please Help me, because I am STUCK! Thank u~~

Forms :: Apply Filter On Navigation Form

Jul 23, 2014

I have a form with a bottom that has a macro that uses applyfilter to filter the current form based on what is within a textbox located on the form.

I used the macobuilder and have my where condition as

[num] Like "*" & [Forms]![frm_Main]![Text181] & "*" Or [name] Like "*" & [Forms]![frm_Main]![Text181] & "*"

This works when I open the form by itself but when I try adding the form to a navigation form I get prompted to put in "num" and "[Forms]![frm_Main]![Text181] " etc. when I click the bottom.
