I would like to have a button on my form that would update a record to a closed status, but I want to have an "Are You Sure?" window pop up first. I did a search on "verify," "verification," "sure," and several others but haven't found what I need. I looked through my Access bible, with no luck.
I have two subforms in a main form. book_sub and book order subform. there are various subforms which i toggle in book order subform window by changing their properties with command button on main form. here is the code -
Code: private sub billq_click() Me.BOOK_SUB.SourceObject = "BILLQ" Me.BOOK_SUB.LinkMasterFields = "[BOOK ORDER SUBFORM].FORM![ORDER ID]" Me.BOOK_SUB.LinkChildFields = "[order ID]" private sub stock_click() Me.BOOK_SUB.SourceObject = "stock" Me.BOOK_SUB.LinkMasterFields = "[BOOK ORDER SUBFORM].FORM![BOOKCD]" Me.BOOK_SUB.LinkChildFields = "[BOOKCODE]"
Now the problem is when i change billq to stock it shows parameter entry window with caption [order id] twice. after clicking ok it does toggle the form to stock. then when i click button for billq again it shows the same thing.
the code works fine except showing parameter entry window twice with every toggle.
Hello, How would I go about in making a command button bring up a report to show a result of items for the end of the month? For example, when a user clicks on this button it will bring up a report showing all the items that are out of date for the end of the month. I am having problems with the query as for months have different lengths e.g. 28/29/30/31 days. How would I make a query show the end result for each month correct as February if going to be different each time i.e. when it is a leap year. I have got far but having trouble with this part. Hope you can help.
I added a "print preview" button to a report that does just that, shows the print preview. The issue I'm having is that I can't do anything in Access after I click that button. Everything in Access seems to stop working, I can't click on anything with my mouse. the only thing that does anything is that i can move the report up and down with the up/down/left/right keys. If I click on a different application that isn't Access (i.e. excel, spotify, email, etc.) and then go back to it, everything works fine.

I am using Access 2010 and creating a front-end for a customer database.
Take a look at the screen capture I added to this post.
What I want to happen is on that "Supplier" button. When I click on it, it opens a new window with the "Supplier" form and on the specific supplier for this product. There is an attached image of what that macro looks like.
The problem I am having is that I do not want the Supplier form to open in a new window, I want it to open within the Navigation Form, replacing the what is currently on the screen.
I have a database that uses a switchboard with a close button that runs several instructions before it exits. The problem is that some users have access to the database window and I need to prevent them from closing the database by hitting the X in the upper right.
Hello everybody, it's been a while since i wrote on the forums and yet again I am in the need to ask for the help of this wonderful community. I have a form on which is a button that I want when pressed to open a Windows Explorer window displaying the contents of a directory. The exact way that I want this thing to work is like this : The user is browsing a form of lets say client details and on the form lies the button that when pressed will take the client's name and apply it to the path in order to open that Windows Explorer window and create a path like C:program filesclient name and display the contents of that window. I would like if possible someone who can point me as to how I can construct this button to work cause I cant see to get it done. Many thanks for your time :)
Is there a way to use a command button to display the database window. I changed the Startup to not show the database window and want to be able to show it using a command button. I would appreciate any help.

I created a command button from using the wizard so when I click to delete the record the button is for, a window pops up asking if I am sure I want to delete the record. Is there a way to not have the button pop up?
Here is the code:
Private Sub cmdCompleted_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdCompleted_Click DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectRecord DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord
I have a parent window which upon clicking on a button will pop-up a child window containing a listbox. The listbox recordsource is a subset of the parent window. I want the user to select a record from the listbox which will load the selected record onto the parent window.
How does one pass argument back from child window to parent window?
From parent window to child window, I used docmd.openform ,,,,,,[argument] and me.openargs in the child window
Hi I have designed a database for a small organization. It is a ver small database. can any one verify and tell me the mistakes in my design. It hardly takes 20 min for the people like you. This is my first step in designing. I am attaching the zip file which contains dbm file and business requirements. Complete physical data model is there.
especially in "category_tests" table i feel that i have done some thing wrong.
I'm using the code below to check new product# input from a form called frmProducts that is bound to a table called tblProducts.
Private Sub Prod__BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) Dim varX As Variant varX = (DLookup([Prod#], "tblProducts", Forms!frmProducts.[Prod#])) If Not IsNull(varX) Then MsgBox [Prod#].Value & " already exists as a product #" Me.Undo Cancel = True Else 'do nothing! End If End Sub
The problem is that any new product# that you input results in "product already exists".
This is my first question posted on this site. I have created a survey with questions to be answered. The database is already populated with records of the people's names who were getting the survey. What I need is when the data entry clerk brings up the customer's name on the form, is that they are forced to enter the surveys answers for certain questions before they click the "Save" button. The answers are set up as radio buttons on the form (ie Less than 6 Months, 6 Months, 8 months and 1 Year).
Not sure if a Before or AfterUpdate macro is needed?
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Please email me directly if you have code.
Hello, I need some help. I have a form named MASTER based on a table also called MASTER. A control of my form in names SSN which stores the client SSN.
On the same form I have placed a subform which has its record source to a table named 21.
What I am trying to do is: When I enter a new record in my form MASTER, the code should: 1) Verify if in table 21 a record with that SSN already exists. If YES, skip the code and do not add the SSN. If NO, well, run the appendquery.
2) At the same time, verify if a record with that SSN already exists in table MASTER. If NO, add the data, if YES, abort the code and exit the form.
The form EForms is a menu form I use to access the records.
This is the code. Something is not going right, I think with the end if functions. Any help? I have placed the code in the AfterUpdate event of my control SSN.
Dim mydb As DAO.Database, MyRs As DAO.Recordset Dim strCode As String Dim strFilter As String Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String
Set mydb = CurrentDb Set MyRs = mydb.OpenRecordset("master")
stDocName = "MASTER"
stLinkCriteria = "[SSN]=" & "'" & Me![SSN] & "'"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
If Not IsNull(DLookup("[SSN]", "21", "[SSN] = '" & Me!SSN & "'")) Then Forms("EFORMS").Visible = False Else If IsNull(DLookup("[SSN]", "21", "[SSN] = '" & Me!SSN & "'")) Then DoCmd.OpenQuery ("Appendssa21tax") End If End If
If Not IsNull(DLookup("[SSN]", "MASTER", "[SSN] = '" & Me!SSN & "'")) Then MsgBox "Sorry! A record with this SSN is already in file. Retrive case from E-Forms Menu.", vbOKOnly, "Warning" DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, acUndo, , acMenuVer70 DoCmd.Close End If Forms!eforms.lstPreInterview.Value = Null DoCmd.Close DoCmd.OpenForm ("Eforms") DoCmd.RunMacro ("CloseEforms") DoCmd.OpenForm ("Eforms") End If

Hi, I'm not sure if this is possible, but I've heard you guys really know your stuff.
I have a client who would like to import a list of e-mail addresses, but would like to verify the domain name used in the provided address against a list of domain names pre-populated in a table. Do I need to use Dlookup? Here are some additional details. Thanks in advance!
I have a picture stored on a network file share that populates each time a particular form is opened. Every so often we lose our connection (which is a different issue altogether). Right now the error I get after much grinding away, is "Bad file name or number"
Is there a quicker way to check for the connection before it spends 45 seconds trying to find the whole path?
Code: Dim vFolderPath As String, dirFile As String, strFile As String vFolderPath = Nz(DLookup("FolderName", "tblCodes-FolderControl", "FolderKey = '" & "Profile" & "'")) dirFile = vFolderPath & Dir(vFolderPath & ctrl_people_id & " *", vbDirectory) strFile = dirFile & "profile_pic.*" 'Debug.Print dirFile On Error Resume Next If Dir(strFile) <> vbNullString Then Me.[ctrl_ImageFrame].Picture = dirFile & "" & Dir(strFile) Else Me!ctrl_ImageFrame.Picture = "X:~stuffprofile_icon.png" End If
