My situation is that the access form field name is "Number" , there is a folder named "member" in
desktop C:UsersTomDesktop
For example If i press the command button (Field name "Number" is 123) in form , then automatic open named "123" folder inside named "member" folder
What is the Command button Code ?
This is my data:
Table: "Facility Info"
Data in the table: "facility", "city", "date", etc.
Query: "Q Facility"
Report: "R Facility"
Form: "Main Form" is where the data is entered that goes into the "Facility Info" table.
In the "Main Form" there is a dropdown box where I can select the "facility".I would like to add a button to this form that opens my report "R Facility". But this report is a collection of all the facilities and I would like it to just report the ones for the facility that I selected from the dropdown box on my "Main Form".
I would like to create a form to allow the user to choose a location to place a file. I would prefer to have a browse command button so when he/she clicks the windows explorer view opens and the user can select the location. I have seen this done, but I am not sure where to start. If anyone has an example to show me, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
I am 2 years into my database. I am trying to find and open a folder based on a text box. The problem is folder could be in many sub folders which is hold on our J: drive.
To further complicate, the folder i am searching may not be exactly as the text box states.
EG. Text box could say 123456 however the folder could be called M123456 etc.
How do i locate a folder or subfolder and open it based on part of a text box...
I'm trying to automate a process of selecting a set of file/s and move them in a folder. When I click on a button, it should open a current folder that is setup in the code.
Lets say that I have a folder C:documents est, and very time I click on the button, it should open the dialog box with that path so I can select the files from another folder, drag them there and they will be saved in that folder.
This will form part of wider automation that will send an email stating that those file/s where placed in that folder.
I have in the same form where the button is placed, 3 check boxes that needs to be passed to the email as well that one or all the files where placed in the folder.
I'm trying to open a folder based on a BIN nr. This folder could be in a main folder that has diferent subfolder. As there where differnt naming used to create the folderes, one of the things they have always is the BIN nr. It alwasy start with a unique number and maybe I could use it to scan the subfolders and open that one that the BIN nr is equal as in the field BIN.
Now we have serveral 1000th of folders and finding them takes time.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI have four similar forms - they each have a list box and an "edit" button.
The user selects the item in the list box and clicks edit.
Another form pops up, open to the record that was selected in the list box.
This works in two forms, it doesn't work in the other two forms. Instead it pops up the first record in the table, regardless of what is selected in the list box.
The code is identical on all four "edit buttons." (with field names changed, of course.)
Code:Dim stDocName As StringDim stLinkCriteria As StringstDocName = "frmCaseTypeEdit"stLinkCriteria = "[Case_Type_ID]="&Me![listCaseTypes]DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
The properties in the listboxes are also the same on all four forms - based on a query, 3 columns, and bound column is the first one (which is the ID field).
Does anyone have any ideas what could cause this?
I have a bit of code that upon a button click will check to see how many records match (CustomerID); if there are no records returned it goes to another action (works fine), and if there is a record returned, it opens another form to that record (again, works fine).
However, should there be more than one record, how do I get it to open the first one?
The code to open the form is
Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "PublicComplaintsMain", , , "CustomerID='" & varInput & "'"
Once the form is open, what code would I use for a command button to find/goto next matching record (as I haven't used .FindRecord in the first instance, .FindNext won't work - or will it?)
I have a continuous form that lists all unapproved invoices. I would like to have a hyperlink at the end of each row that says Review and will open another form that queries the details of the unapproved invoice based on the invoice number in the current row.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI 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
Code:
[Staffcontact]![Rest Name]=[Forms]![MainForm]![RestaurantName]
But, it does not work .
I have a subform in which I want to put in a Command Button to open another form.
I used the wizard as per normal, but when you come to matching specific data fields, there is nothing in my left hand column of the sub form. I have checked the record source property and it is bound to the correct table.
I have read that this is an issue with Access 2007? Is this the case or am I missing something obvious here?
I have 2 forms.
The first form is called "entry"
the second for is called "play"
I am trying to open the play form on the click of a button so that it displays the records matching the value set for the [playid] field in both forms.
Can anyone help me with the code?
I have a field on a form which the user currently has to manually type in the file path to a specific picture on a local drive. After the file path is entered, the path is linked and the picture is shown in an image box. I did this because I didnt want to bog the database down with attached files.
I wondered if I could have a browse button, which when pressed brought up the browse window to allow you to locate the image (using the standard windows browser). Then when you clicked ok, it writes the filename into the correct field on the form.
The table ProductInfo has an ItemID, and its corresponding Quantity.The table Orders has a PO column, an Item# column, a OrderQuantity column, and the column Item#CurrentStock which holds the Quantity of the selected item, for 3 items.I have created a form that has a ComboBox populated with the ItemID's from ProductInfo, that when selected populate the corresponding Item# in the Orders table.
I would love if the Quantity(stock) from ProductInfo would automatically fill the Item#CurrentStock field on the form when the ItemID is selected from the ComboBox.But all of the fields only relate to Item# from the first ComboBox!?!?I have tried =dlookup,

Can't really do code but get on OK with built in wizards etc. Wonder if someone might be able to help with this one:
Is it possible to set a command into a form that opens up a windows folder elsewhere on the computer or network? For example, receive email from DIY multiple containing kitchen plan, installation costing etc, as attachments. File attachments in folder on server, manually enter detail into access database which generates "Customer ID Number", decides which fitter, surveyor etc. then need to email a report (have managed conversion to PDF and to launch outlook) but then wanted to copy and attach the original attachments to this new email, along with Access report for forwarding to various surveyors / fitters around the UK. Thus require if poss to open file on server, copy attachments and paste in new e mail, thought it would save time to do by one button press to open server file??
May seem easier to just forward original e mail but unfortunately some of the info in the mails from the DIY multiples is not for distribution and filtering isn't possible.
Perhaps one simply can't do it but worth asking, thanks again. Paul
Open a specific Windows Folder.I am using this code to open a specific Windows folder ..... and it works perfect:
As String Dim folder
folder = "c: Documents WORD"
Dim Retval
Retval = Shell ("explorer.exe / e, / root," "" & folder & "" "", 1)
... but also need to open in the specified path, taking the data "UserName" of one field in a table:
TABLE: "Assignments" IDEExp, UserName, Date
So instead of going to the folder = "c:Documents WORD" would go to: c: Documents WORDUserName ". In Windows and subfolders are created with UserName1, 2,3,4, etc.
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 3 attachment boxes in my table that appears in a form.each attachment box contains specific files (not specific as in extension such as PDF, JPEG, etc.) but specific as in Company Documents, Certifications, Resumes. The issue is there's a lot of document and I see my database growing (fast)...My question finally is....
Can I use a Hyperlink to open a folder within a specific directory where multiple file are located so i can open the specific file need there RATHER than attaching them in the attachment box individually?.?.....If not how this can be done (no SQL) unless that route is very simple and basic coding.
My thinking would be to place the file path to the documents in the table and hyper link that column in the table, but not knowing exactly how Hyperlinks work I don't think it would actually work..

I have a Form1 that is based on a select query with a criteria [Enter PIN number]. When we enter the PIN it returns the correct result. I want to have a button that opens a second form based on the same PIN number entered to open the first (in fact there will be numerous forms I want opened based on this PIN).
Example:
Sidewalk - button
Curb X button
Tree - button
Hydrant X button
In the example above, only CURB and HYDRANT returned an entry. Therefore when I click on the button next to CURB I'd like the frmCurb to open showing the data based on the PIN numbered entered to open the From1, and when I click on the button next to HYDRANT it would open frmHydrant showing the data for HYDRANT based on the same PIN number entered to open the Form1.
Thanks,
