I have a search form (Form A) that as I type in a text box the contents of the listbox refreshes to show only those items that match the text in the text box.
When you double click on any of the items in the listbox it jumps me to a detail form based on the ID field.
On the detail form, there is a subform for any notes which uses a listbox (it lists all the notes entered for that detail item).
The notes subform listbox is only displaying the first note entered in the database....
So if I search for information in case 43, I find case 43. I double click on case 43 and the details for case 43 pop up. I go to the notes subform and the listbox showing all the notes entered is only showing the notes for case number 1.
Public Sub cmdRequery_Click() Dim vFlag As String vFlag = Me![EncounterNbr] Me.Requery
With Me.Recordset .FindFirst "[EncounterNbr] = '" & vFlag & "'" Me.Bookmark = .Bookmark End With
The user starts on a continous form and opens a record, makes some changes, and then when that form closes it triggers this public sub.
The code does what I want it to do in that it returns to the last encounter number that was selected (now on the continous form again) and it requeries and shows anything that was changed about the record on the form that was closed before requery.......
But it always resorts and moves it and I want it to stay in the same spot unless the user sorts. Is there any way to make that happen?
This should be a simple one, but right now I just can't get it. How do I get a Bookmark to pick up on the entry that I chose from in a combo box when there are multiple entries for the same item I want to chose from (ID - primary key is unique, just not the name of the item - 'FullP', and that is what I am using)?
For instance I want to be able to choose the correct record where 'FullP' will have multiple entries, but unique ID's.
Originally I had this bookmark off of a set of cascading combo boxes on a form, but unfortunately when using this set-up the ID (primary key) is not transfered foward, the rest of it works fine and it takes me to the first record for each 'FullP' (just not the correct record when multiples are entered). The record source for the combo is similar to:
“SELECT [LDetails].MDay, [LDetails].Session, [LDetails].DL, [LDetails].FullP “ & _ “FROM [LDetails] WHERE (((([LDetails].MDay)=Forms![DEntries]!EDay) “ & _ “And ([LDetails].Session)=Forms![DEntries]!Session) “ & _ “And ([LDetails].DL)=Forms![DEntries]!DL) “ & _ “ORDER BY [LDetails].FullP, [LDetails].ID;” AND
Dim Rs As Object Set Rs = Me.Recordset.Clone Rs.FindFirst "[FullP] = '" & Me![FullP] & "'" If Not Rs.EOF Then Me.Bookmark = Rs.Bookmark Rs.Close When changing the final combo box and binding it directly to the query, the primary key is transfered foward correctly, but I am still having problems getting it to go to the correct record. I have added:
Dim Rs As Object Set Rs = Me.Recordset.Clone Me.RecordsetClone.FindFirst "[FullP] = '" & Me.FullP.Column(0) & "'" If Not Rs.EOF Then Me.Bookmark = Rs.Bookmark Rs.Close This just takes me to the very first record...
I would really like to keep the cascade combo boxes working. Any ideas?
I've found a few posts about this subject, on the forum, so I'm guessing that my database (or at least one table therein) has become corrupt.
I've tried the various suggestions I could find (compact and repair, import into a new Db, etc) and none have worked. I have, however, located a version of the database from the day before this error first occurred. I've checked the problematic table and it contains no 'Error#' lines.
The single table affected contains a lot of data and is pretty irreplaceable. I have daily backups, so no information will actually get lost, but if I can't add any new data to it (for fear of corruption) it won't be much use.
1) What causes this problem? I can't seem to find a definite answer to this one. 2) Is there one definite fix I can use to prevent the problem occurring again?
Hi, I am having some weird problems when using bookmarks. All I want to do is display 1 record at a time in a listbox each time a user clicks a button.
At the moment I save the bookmark value to a global variable, and when the user makes another click is should move to that record. Right now it gives me a "Not a valid Bookmark" error when I click on the button for the second time. First time is alright, but second time it comes up with that error. Any help is appreciated.
Here's an example of my code
Option Compare Database Dim varbookmark As Variant
Private Sub cmdadd_Click() Dim cnn As New ADODB.Connection Dim rst As New ADODB.Recordset
With lstHotel .ColumnCount = 4 .ColumnWidths = "1in;" End With
Do While rst.EOF <> True If varbookmark = "" Then lstHotel.AddItem rst!Name rst.MoveNext varbookmark = rst.Bookmark Exit Sub Else rst.Bookmark = varbookmark lstHotel.AddItem rst!Name rst.MoveNext varbookmark = rst.Bookmark Exit Sub End If Loop
I tried to search the forums for an answer but I still can't seem to solve the problem. I receive the "Not a valid bookmark" error message when attempting to open my database. I have tried the compact tool through access and also jetcomp but it just brings up the same error message on access and says "error compacting database" on jetcomp. Can anyone provide a solution to my problem in order that i can either open the database or else retrieve data from it? Many thanks, any help appreciated Jon.
I have attached the database in case you have any software which might be of use.
one of the databases at my place has started acting really strange and was wondering if anyone knows what could possibly be wrong?
there's only one big tble holding about 7.5 k records with approx 10 fields
info that was entered yesterday has now been deleted (by access?) and when you scroll down or go down to the end records, all those records that were there yesterday now show either #error or #deleted and then an error popup appears saying "Not Valid Bookmark"
The UID doesn't appear to be working either, i.e it's not incrementing properly?
I have a knowledge base database which lets the user search for articles containing answers to common problems and issues. Some of the users want to be able to bookmark certain useful articles. The DB is a front end/back end design so I am thinking if I have one table stored in the front end which can be used to store that particular user's favourites then that would be great. However, I a little stuck on how to implement this. Ideally, I'd like a simple checkbox option next to each article, which when ticked, would store that article ID in that user's local front end.
Private Sub Form_Current() If Not Me.NewRecord Then With Me.Q_Subform.Form .RecordsetClone.FindFirst "N=" & Me.N .Bookmark = .RecordsetClone.Bookmark End With End If End Sub
The problem is that when the Q_Subform has no records I have the error 3021.
How can manage it. It's the last step before ending My db
Ok....Just when you think it's all running smoothly.... :( I have a combo box, MDLastName, with a column count of 9, with column 2 displaying and all others hidden. The selection made with this combo populates 7 corresponding fields (first name, address, etc). It's working perfectly.
The first problem I encountered was with identical last names, but different corresponding data. When I selected Jones, for example, it would populate the first Dr. Jones and his info, listed in the table. However, if I selected the second Dr. Jones in the combo list, it was still populating only the first Dr. Jones' info. I resolved this by binding the fist column (ID, aka primary key), but still hiding all colums but column 2. First problem fixed..
Next, I have a Word Template document bookmarked to receive data from the form, frmDenial. I have all the coding working fine and dandy to insert the data from the fields on the form, save, and print. However, instead of inserting the text from the MDLastName, it is inserting the primary key (because it is the bound column in the combo box). Now, because of the first problem discussed above, I cannot change the bound column to column 2 (containing the data I need in the Word Template). How can I get the right info to appear in my template with the bookmarks?
I understand how to pass text boxes to bookmarked locations in Word, but when it comes to combo boxes, list boxes, or option buttons, I am lost. So, my problem this time is the following:
I have an access user form that is asking the user to input data and make selections. Once entered I am trying to get everything to export directly to respective bookmarked locations in a Word Report. I have my text boxes working and I have the combo box now working. The issue I am experiencing is with the user making multiple selections from a list box and I am not really sure how to get that to export to the word document.
Here is what I have:
Code: Dim strNames As String Dim ctl As Control Dim varItem as Variant 'ensure the user has made a selection from the testers name text box If Me.testersNamesText.ItemsSelected.Count = 0 Then MsgBox "You must select at least 1 Capability Testers Name"
[Code] ....
I am very new to trying to code with the Visual Basic side of things, I know this is probably the best method to do this but the issue that I am experiencing is receiving a Null error for the line with
And when I attempt to pass the strNames in place of the testersNamesText I receive that the user form can't find the field "strNames" referred to in my expression.
Basically I have a Customer Form, which I have a New party button on it,this button opens up the party form to a new party, what I would like it to do is open up a new party but make the new party for the customer I had selected in the previous form.I have tried the GoTo macro's but cannot seem to get it to work.
I am thinking on clicking the button it will need to get the Customer ID, and then open the party form, create new party, and paste in the Customer ID, which then updates the Name - Date - Address - Company Fields.
I have been tasked with creating a tool to analyse mobile phone bill data and present the analysis, and our recommendation, to a customers. Being new to Access (other than basic tuition) this has been a slow uphill task, which is finally nearing completion, however there is a problem which I have not yet been able to overcome.
The requirement is for the DB to open first on a splash screen (lets call it Form A) with fancy picture where our customer is selected from a combo box, the customer is then telephoned, a linked computer screen is established and our staff then click "Go" to proceed to a second form (Form B) showing an account overview and more details.
The problem I have is when "Go" is clicked, the second form loads via on click event, and even populates the correct customer in its combo box. Unfortunately that is as far as it gets - the combo does not look up the information. The customer needs to be selected again for the subforms and subreports to load with the customer overview. To clarify, form B just sits there blank until the customer is re-selcted from the combo box in form B.
On the form: User enters first name, then last name. Upon updating the last name field, I would like another form to pop-up and display all the people with that same first name and last name that the user just entered.
On the pop-up form: All of the matching first names/last names are listed with a button control beside each record that says 'Select'. The user clicks the select button beside the record he/she wants. This pop-up form closes and all of the data from this selected record is now showing on the original form.
So far, I have a query/form that pops up only showing the matching first/last names. I'm having a hard time getting my original form to auto-populate with that record that the user selects on the pop-up.
(Also my main form is actually a sub-sub form - so in my trials I could've been massacring my syntax trying to point to it.)
I am trying to create a user form with sub form using the form wizard. I have only 2 tables, Employee (main table) and Vacation (subform table). I pick the fields from Employee Table then fields fro Vacation, but the wizard treat the Vacation as main form and Employee as sub form.
I have a fault form which the user enters details of a fault. When the fault form is submitted the data is saved in the relevant table and the form is cleared so that the user can enter the next fault. On the fault form i have a subform which displays the faults previously entered by the user. I want the user to be able to click on an entry in the subform and open the orignal fault form and see the data that had been entered. How can i create this functionality??
how to make my form controls change size / position as my form is resized / loaded on a computer with a different resolution. Several of the tutorials out there suggest putting code on the "on resize" property of the form. When I looked at the Northwind database to try to mimic their code however, it looks like they must be doing something different as there is no on resize code under the form properties and I was unable to find the code they do use.
I have a bound form which is from tblEmployee, I'd like to have a dataset below (like a splitform but not a split as they have limits) so when i search in the box it gives me say all the smiths - i select for example david smith and it displays his information in the form objects above so they can be edited?
I have one table containing name of restaurant with its address etc. Then i created another table to list out the restaurant workers names and details. Just as an example,
Table:Restaurant Restaurant name Address line 1 Address line 2 Restaurant # Website
Table:StaffContact Staff Role Name speciality email phone
I have the main form that has all the restaurant details only. And i have another form containing the Staff information. Please note the two table have a relation and it works well.
Now to make it user friendly(basically easier for the lazy ones), I dragged the staff contact form on to my main form and displayed it as a datasheet(basically a sub form).
Now, my boss does not want users to add/delete on this sub form(datasheet). So,he wants me to create buttons to open new record of staff for each restaurant(new form)
My issue is with opening a new record to enter a new person to the staff list and give them a role as well in form view.The new form has
So i ran a Macro, with open form with Where condition
What I would like to do is create a list box that will only display the information from another form that is related to the current form.So I have a form call Equipment Catalog and that form is related to Equipment features 1 to M relationship and the Equipment Features is related to a Features form M to 1.
So what I want to do is display all the related equipment features in a listbox that is related to the current PK of that form.So if there is only one feature on one form the list box will only display that one item however is there is 6 features on another it will display all 6.I have been trying SQL and Queries but I still can't get it to work.
Can I look up and verify data on a "second" form based on a selected record from first (still open) form.
I am trying to allow users to select a User Name from a combo box list and then open "Change Password" form when they select "Change Password" for that selected user name.
My problem is that I can't figure out how to associate and verify the data tied to the user name selected on the previous (Login) form ( I am trying to validate the old password tied to that selected record).
I have the first login form created, and it's working just fine. I also have the change password form created (and it's displaying the user name selected from the first form using:
Code: Private Sub Form_Load() With Forms![frmLogin]![cboUserName] Me.txtPwdChgUserID = .Column(2, .ListIndex) End With EndSub
I also have the code written to validate and confirm old password, new password and validate new password (when the save button is clicked). I have yet to update the password with the new password (still trying to figure that out).
Attached zip file has screen shots of the two forms.
When I right click a row on the data sheet side of a split form an select "New Record" I want the curser to go to the first field on the single record side. I've placed this in the OnCurrent but it did no good.
Code:
If Me.NewRecord Then Me!Descrfiption.SetFocus. End If
Any way to set the focus to the single form Side of a split form?
The user will be creating a new project that contains a bunch of releases. The releases have standard names which are stored in a table tbl_ReleaseNames It should be noted that the list of names is not static.
The user selects which of the releases pertains to their project and then based on their selections, new records would be created in tbl_RFP_Release and then a subsequent form would open where it would display each of these newly created releases where they could enter additional information. I thought of creating an unbound checkbox associated with each of the standard names, and then checking to see if the checkbox was checked and then creating the new records followed by opening up the new form.
I am very new at Microsoft Access. I have two forms, A and B, that are filled out by two different users. Form A gets filled out first than form B gets filled out. Each has a name box as well as a birthdate box and a few other similar text fields. However, each form also has a few distinctive fields. I was wondering how I could input the common information in Form A to Form B so the user of Form B does not have to spend time retyping the name and birthdates again. In other words, I want to synchronize the similar records between the two forms. I would like the values to appear in a table as well. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me with the visual basic code. Thank You.
