Browse To Macro Within Tab Control
Apr 23, 2015
Is it possible to use the "Browse To" macro within a subform on a Tab Control (Not a navigation form). I am trying to set up the "path to subform control" in a "Browse to" macro. I am not using a navigation form but instead am using the Tab Control feature. On my third tab I have two subforms; one that displays all of the records within a related document set in datasheet view, and a subform that displays each of these records individually. I want to be able to click on a record in my datasheet view and have it populate the main form.
I am just trying to figure out what the "Path to Subform Control" should be. All of the examples I have found are using Browse to on a navigation form and not a tab control. My Main form is called "BRC Form", The form in datasheet view that I want to make my selection from is called "Biomarker SubFrm", and the form I want the data to populate into is called "Copy of BiomarkerQry"..In the "On Click" event, I have added a browseto macro.
Here is the macro I am trying to mimic from the Contacts Web Database. Here is what I have so far. As you can see I am trying to figure out the proper code for my Path to Subform Control. again, this is not a navigation form so I need an extension that will work within this tab control.

Hi,
I'm trying to add a control to my form that I don't know how to do.
On my form, I want the user to be able to click a button which will open up the standard file open dialog box. The user then will be able to browse through the appropriate directory and select an image file which will be saved on that specific record.
Attached is a strip down database as an example.
How can I do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated - I'm trying to do this for my work.

I know everyone is going to say DONT PUT IMAGES IN YOUR DB< PUT LINKS TO THEM IN!
I am not at liberty to change the structure of what my boss wants, he wants the images stored in the DB so that is what I am giving him.
My problem is this: I have a single form for entering data into my Table, and I want to add a control that will let the User Browse for the right image, and them add that image chosen into the DB with maybe an upload button or something.
Now, if it is VERY VERY poor design to do it this way, and it is SOO much better to do the link to image way, if you could please detail how it works in both ways, I may be able to talk my boss into changing. My problem is I am not very good at this DB Designing and such, and have no experience using OLE type fields.
Thank you for ANY assistance you may give!
PS: All images will be same type and size!

I have a Web Browser Control which displays the location of premise from a table using Bing. The Control itself isn't large enough to show the entire Bing page, so it has vertical and horizontal scroll bars.
It's vertical position is fine, but I'd like it to by default display from the far right hand side as opposed to the left. I'm guessing there's a way to set the ScrollValue (or similar) of the horizontal bar in code, but am unsure what to do. Or perhaps there's a really simple way and I'm missing it.
I've done quite a bit of searching, but keep coming up for solutions for List / Combo boxes etc.

I'm trying to create a simple embedded macro for a checkbox control on a form [Company?]. The default value for this checkbox is No.
I want to write an If statement that basically says "If[Company?] = Yes, then GotoControl[CompanyorNameCombo], Else GotoControl[CustomerFN]
Although the checkbox field label and the control itself IS named [Company?] in the table and set as a Yes/No field, when I try to write the If statement I get an error that says "Microsoft Access cannot find the name 'Company?' you entered in the expression"
That's the name of the control and it is included in the table and shows in the field list.

I am trying to write a more complex macro that will start another macro at a preset time, however I am getting stopped at the first hurdle - getting a macro to run another macro.
Here is the code i am using at the moment, all I want to do currently is click the first button, then get the second macro to execute. But no luck, getting error 2157 "cannot find the procedure"
Code:
Private Sub Command3_Click()
MsgBox "1st macro running", vbExclamation, "Note"
Application.Run "teststart1"
' Application.OnTime TimeValue("19:55:00"), "teststart1"
[code]....

Hello all:
I'm trying to create a browse button in MS Access. Here is the code I've used so far:
Private Sub ImgBrowse_Click()
Dim OFN As OPENFILENAME
On Error GoTo Err_cmdInsertPic_Click
' Set options for dialog box.
With OFN
.lpstrTitle = "Images"
If Not IsNull([ImageFullPath]) Then .lpstrFile = [ImageFullPath]
.flags = &H1804 ' OFN_FileMustExist + OFN_PathMustExist + OFN_HideReadOnly
.lpstrFilter = MakeFilterString("Image files (*.bmp;*.gif;*.jpg;*.wmf)", "*.bmp;*.gif;*.jpg;*.wmf", _
"All files (*.*)", "*.*")
End With
If OpenDialog(OFN) Then
[ImageFullPath] = OFN.lpstrFile
[ImagePicture].Picture = [ImageFullPath]
SysCmd acSysCmdSetStatus, "Afbeelding: '" & [ImageFullPath] & "'."
End If
Form.Refresh
Exit Sub
Err_cmdInsertPic_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description, vbExclamation
End Sub
and here is what is in my module:
Option Compare Database
Public Type OPENFILENAME
lpstrTitle As String
lpstrFile As String
flags As Long
lpstrFilter As String
End Type
When I attempt to compile it says Sub or function not defined and highlights MakeFilterString. Why is this and how can I fix it? An ideas? Thank you

I have a field in a form to which I wish to be able to browse to a particular PDF file. This location is then to be a hyperlink that when clicked upon, it will open the chosen file.
I have seen a thread already for file browsing, but it said to look at the VBA code, which I have no idea what it means :(
Please help, this is driving me mad.
TIA

Hi, all! I really need some help from you geniuses here. I've never worked with modules and my coding from objects is very limited.
I need to create a browse button that will be used to select a file to import into my database, using a command button. I hope this makes sense. I was reading the post:
http://forums.aspfree.com/microsoft-access-help-18/how-to-link-fe-to-be-using-vba-76392.html?&highlight=browse+button
I am so limited in my aptitude for coding that I was totally lost reading this. I think that it is for relinking a database, with a browse functionality. Can anyone help me figure out how to adjust this to work for my needs?
Thanks!

hi all
i'm hoping some guru can help me out here, i've got a function that opens up a browse window and lets me choose what sort of file type i want to view in a directory. what i need is to modify it so i can have the option of arranging the files by the date modified, so i can have the last file saved come up as the first file available.
anyone know if this is possible???

Hi,
This post was very useful, it really helped me out, but I do have one question. My database will be used by multiple users and will be stored on a mapped network drive, just as the files that I want to link to. Now unfortunately not all machines are configured the same, so the same network drive can have different drive letters depending on the machine and this might cause problems. Is there a way to modify the code to get the absolute network path instead of the drive letter?
thx

I adapted the findform from the address book sample database. After the search is performed I would like it to be able to continue to browse (continue scrolling through) the rest of contacts rather than excluding everything but matches. More like a go to kind of search rather than a select query. I'm betting this is a simple fix (I hope), I just don't know what it would be. Any help?

I am designing a form and I need to add a Browse button to it. I need the Browse Button to point to the "My Computer". Once that file is selected I need it to fill in the hyperlink box. I have the hyperlink text box on the form and it works if you manually type a link in. I would like it to auto fill-in with the selected file.
Any help would be great!!
Thank you :)

Below is a pic of the form I'm having trouble with. the poject is a database of golf courses. there is a form for entering/viewing information for each hole for each course. basically each record has a thumbnail pic of the hole.
That browse button needs to do something. It needs to open a browse dialog box, similar to the browse dialog box you get on many other programs. The idea is that the user selects the picture from the browse dialog box and the file name of this picture is put in the PhotoFile field.
I have no idea where to start on this, but I did check out the Northwind database that comes with Access - its similar but has loads of other functions bundled with it that I don't need and doesn't work without these functions.
I'm no programming genius either! so any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

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 have a database that keeps track of customers by last name, first name and various other information. I have the combo box setup so that I can type in a last name and it brings up my results. The problem is that it only brings up the first match and doesn't let me browse through all the matches. The last name and first name are seperate fields so if I look for a last name that more than one customer has like smith it only takes me to the first match. Is there any way to make it filter all the names that aren't matches out of the combo box as the values are typed in?

I'm having a small difficulty in using the code example ghudson posted for Browse [Find a directory or file]. First off, the code works great. Thanks a lot for posting it!
The problem I am having is when linking a folder via dBrowseDirectory. The folders I am linking are on a shared network drive and I am trying to figure out how to set the initial directory to default to the networked PC. This way the user doesn't have to navigate to the shared drive every time. All they would have to do is navigate to the particular folder to link (2 clicks instead of 10+).
The dBrowseFiles function allows to set an initial directory, however I cannot figure out how to set it for dBrowseDirectory. Is there any way to do this by altering your code for dBrowseDirectory?
Thanks in advance!
