I hope someone can guide me in the right direction. I have developed a database to keep track of Service Calls we receive. We manufacture and/or service a wide range of products from Automatic Laundry/Kitchen chemical dispensers to office furniture. We are currently using this data base and it works well, I'm trying to make it easier for the user.
I have a form to enter information into a table, tblService Calls. In the form I have a ComboBox labeled Issue Code which looks up information in a table tblService Issue. I also have a ComboBox labeled Service Issue which also looks up information in the tblService Issue.
tblServiee Issue looks like this:
Issue Code Service Issue
101 Laundry Install
201 Kitchen Install
and so on
What I'm trying to do is when I enter issue code 101 in ComboBox Issue Code, I would like the Service Issue (Laundry Install) to automatically post in the ComboBox or TextBox labeled Service Issue. Is this possible?
Thank you in advance for any help you can give me!

It related training (Training topic and Training Date). I used combobox as training topic (fill with items 0 and 1. 0 for not train and 1 for trained). when user choose 0, cursor will go to another combo box (Other training topic), by Training Date is disable, but if user choose 1, cursor will working as normally let user to enter training date.
Problem : When I choose 0 in topic control in Form View and save, It works normally (Training Date is disable), but when I Open it in Form Design View and Open It to Form view that topic control become enabled.
I have a table filled with company contacts and form with a combo box containing the contacts names.
When a contact is selected I want it to show their Telephone, Mobile and email address in text boxes below. But it only shows the telephone number and the other two fields stay blank.
what I'm doing wrong ?
I have this code assigned to the combobox:
Code: Private Sub MainContact_Change() Me.Text169 = Me.MainContact.Column(3) Me.Text167 = Me.MainContact.Column(2) Me.Text177 = Me.MainContact.Column(1) End Sub
And this is the row source:
Code: SELECT tbl_Contacts.Salutation & " " & tbl_Contacts.ContactForename & " " & tbl_Contacts.ContactSurname AS MainContact, tbl_Contacts.ContactTelephone, tbl_Contacts.ContactMobile, tbl_Contacts.ContactEmail FROM tbl_Contacts WHERE (((tbl_Contacts.ID_Company)=[tbl_CompanyBookings].[ID_Company]));

I have a form that has 3 combo boxes and a text box that I want to be a lookup. I have a little experience with DLookUp, but I do not think that will work here. The three combo boxes are linked to queries, and Tables. The first combo box is for choosing "Precious" or "Base" metals. The second combo box is filtered from the first and displays the "Metal Names". The third combo box is to choose a "Metal Market". There are currently four options for that. I want the text box to display the "Metal Market Price" based on the second and third combo box selections.
Here is a screenshot of the table with all of the metals and their market prices filled in with dummy values for now:

Here is a screenshot of the relevant Form: Metals form screenshot.PNG
Here is a screenshot of the Table that relates to the relevant form: Metals table design.PNG
Here is a screenshot of the Metal Market table that the Query is based on: Metal Market Table.PNG
I would like to create a combobox on a form in which a user has three selections: negative, positive, other.
If negative is chosen a textbox auto-populates with "none detected". If positive is chosen the text box populates with "positive" and If other is selected the text box populates with "unspecified".
Got a bit stuck in a database. I have a form based on a query. On the form I have 4 comboboxes.
The combo boxes filter eachother without a problem (based on custom select query)
Now I want after the fourth combobox value is selected, I want to populate a text field with a value from a different column from the master query (after the 4 selections only 1 value should be possible)
Master query contains 5 columns: - group - type - job - insurance - charge
combo1 selects group (and filters records) combo2 selects type (from remaining records and filters again) combo3 selects job (from remaining records and filters again) combo4 selects insurance (from remaining records and filters again)
Combo4 is based on following query: -column1 Insurance Total=Group by Show=yes -column2 Job Total=Where show=no Criteria [forms]![name].[combo]
This works great and the dropbox only shows 1 OF EACH DIFFERENT record
If I add a text box and want to see the "charge" value, that I thought I could use the ME.text-code. But in order to do this, I have to add the charge column into the query of Combo4.
If I do this, the dropbox for insurance gives me multiple values that are the same. Is there any way to make this work?
I am designing a Web Database with a bound form to a submit table.
On the form, I have a combo box with selections that should influence the value to be displayed in a textbox also on same form.
For instance the combo box for Staff Name contains list of all Staff and I want the textbox to automatically display the level of the staff that was just selected in the combobox.
I know how to get this done using a combobox but my boss insists that the level should be automatically displayed in the textbox once combobox selection is done.
Using the combobox for level, I used the select statement in the RowSource property :
SELECT Staff_List.Level, Staff_List.Staff_Name FROM Staff_List WHERE (((Staff_List.Staff_Name)=[forms]![frmtest]![cboStaffName]));
I am in a dilemma of how to replicate this for the textbox because textbox only has control source and no RowSource where I can put this select statement.
Also, I will still need to bind this textbox to the submit table with the column name "TxtLevel" in the control source
Please see attached sample access db.
Also note that I cannot use action queries or VBA because it is a Web database and not a client database.
I would like that when the user opens the form and adds a new record the combobox showed the row immediately following the condition defined in the previous record.
For example.
First time that I open the form I select the combobox the condition A. Second time that I open the form the combobox automatically selects the condition B Third time that I open the form then the combobox automatically show me the condition 3
I am trying to get the value of a combobox after selecting an "OK" button but get "You can't reference a property or method for a control unless the control has the focus." Most would probably say use .Value but when I press "OK" I am prompted for a value, or as in another case get Null.I tried setting the focus prior to the violating line of code, but no go.
Example:
Code: Private Sub viewByRegionOKButton_Click() DoCmd.OpenReport "byRegionReport", acViewPreview, , "RegionName = '" & regionComboBox.Text & "'" End Sub

So I got everything to work exactly as I wanted it to.. the listbox has its rowsrc manually changed via VB on form open or record change... so everytime the record changes or the form opens, VB creates a query string that pulls the TFE_Num and TFE_Name from the DB for only those records where the forms current key (me.key.value) equals the TFE_key values. And everything works.
The problem is that this VB based query is very slow... so everytime the record changes, we wait 1-5 seconds for this listbox to pull data and display it. My question is this: Is there a better way to do this, some way that doesn't require VB based SQL statement. I'm asking because all the non-listbox controls on the form use a control source and they get updated instantaniously on form open or record move, but the list boxes that are unbound and are populated using VB SQL are really slow... and there are really only 1 or 2 records ever displayed in the list box.
I have tried to set the rowsource for the list box within the properties tab and comment out the VB SQL code, but haven't succeeded. I suspect the issue is that the form is linked to all fields in the master table while the list box is linked to a 1st and 2nd generation child table... I just can't get it to work! I've tried simple adding the TFE tables and fields to the forms record source poperties, but when I do that I can only navigate to records that have TFEs associated with them.
I suspect I could resolve the issue myself, if only access queries allowed "me.key.value" to be used in the WHERE statement. Am I correct that you cannot do this in Accesses query builder or the SQL version? When I tried, it worked but then I notices the me.key.value got converted to a number (the first record) when it ran the first time.
I have a subform in datasheet view for tracking calls from clients. The Client Name is a combination of the first and last name. I want to create a text box that allows me to start typing in the client name and it will filter for only those Clients that match. Currently, I have the following code (below) for the textbox, however when I start typing in a client name all the clients disappear from the table. The client name is in a combo box so I don't know if that is making a difference.
Private Sub Text3_Change() Dim strFilter As String Me.Refresh
I'm using a very simple unbound textbox on a very simple form, with the following Expression to find me data in a query and sum the last 30 days, based on a combo-box on my form...
Only thing is, it's showing me only the data from the last 30 days...regardless of the value in the combo.
=DSum("Credit","qryIncVsExp","TransDate>=#" & Date()-30 & "#" And "AccountID_FK="""&[cboaccount].[column](1)&"")
I'm sure it's something to do with the number of "'s I have, but I'm probably more than likely ever so wrong.
I am trying to use a combobox called Manufacturer to select which table the combobox called Model gets it's rowsource from using the code below.
Code:
Private Sub Manufacturer_AfterUpdate() If (Me.Manufacturer.Value = "Siemens") Then Me.Model.RowSourceType = "Table/Query" Me.Model.Recordset = "SeimensTable" Me.Model.RowSource = "SELECT Model FROM SeimensTable" Else If (Me.Manufacturer.Value = "Samsung") Then Me.Model.RowSourceType = "Table/Query" Me.Model.Recordset = "SamsungTable" Me.Model.RowSource = "SELECT Model FROM SamsungTable" End If End If End Sub
But when I run the form and select Manufacturer. Combobox Model remains empty. tell me what I'm doing wrong?
I have a date textbox (Week_Ending) and number textbox (Staff_ID) in a form (frmHourEnter), when both have values I open another form (frmStaffReport) with textboxes (txtDateStart and cmbStaff).
How do I open the second form with the values of the first form pre-entered?
I have a database for billing. In my database, I have a form that consists of a main form "Order" and 2 subforms "OrderDetails" and "Customer" OrderDetails are to enter the products to be connected to the Order. All function super, but I want to have some information from one of the forms "copied" over to on of the others.
Here is what I would like
In the subform "OrderDetails" I have made a textbox that summarize all prices to a total, his tekstbox i called "Tekst31". I would like the amount in this textbox to appear in a field "Bel�b" in the main form "Order".
I have tried some different commands, but nothing has worked, also I have made a query which dose the same ting as the tekstboks, as the information in that tekstbox it not stored anywhere.
I have a text box on 'Forma' & a textbox (named text3) on 'Formb'. I want to copy the contents of the textbox from 'Formb' to the textbox on 'Forma'. I have used the following code in the textbox on 'Forma'....
=Forms![Formb]![Text3].text
This doesn't seem to be working whether both Forms are open or only 'Forma'. Could somebody please advise as to what I am missing. Your assistance is very much appreciated.
I have two tables, one with a list of accounts (ACC), the other to post data about the accounts (DATA). I created a form for DATA and a combo box to select the account it relates to.
In the DATA split form, the account name shows up correctly in the datasheet. But when I select the DATA table, the ID of the account name shows up instead. How do I get the table to look the same as the datasheet in the split form?
I have a database containing 3 tables: Book, Member, and Loan. A relationship exists between the 3 tables(the relationship has no problems, I have enabled referential integrity). I created a query named Loan Query which uses all the 3 tables.
In the loan Query, the Member ID field is in Loan Table and the Member Name field is in the Member Table. This allows the database to automatically type the Name when the Member ID is entered into the query retrieving the information from the Member Table. This also works fine. But the problem is that the Name field of the Loan TABLE (not query) remains blank.
All I want to do is for the database to also write the Name in the Loan Table along with the Loan Query. I will also have to apply the same for other fields also.
I am a beginner in Microsoft Access and so whosoever replies, please elaborate the solution.
I have some code that checks if a file exists, its file size, creation date and date modified. The code works fine..however..
I need to import the file it is checking and that file can sometimes take up to 30 minutes to complete its posting. In fact I used the code to check it the other day and the code showed that it exists, its creation/modifed date and also its file size - however, the file size was what it was at that moment I ran the code. If I immediately re-run the code, the file size changes - obviously due to the fact that the file is still posting (and growing due to the date being posted to it). Also note that the (completed) file size will vary each day the file is posted
So, what I would like to know is, is their a way to check to see if a file has completed posting? Something akin to .filecreated like .filecompleted (yes or no) type thing?
Here is the code:
