Greetings, all.
Run into a snag with a payroll db, appreciate any help you can give me.
Main Form, with ordinary payroll/personnel info--clock no, first and last names, S.S.no., etc.
Subform for entering regular hours worked, OT hours worked, etc per Period Ending, keyed to main form by SS no. Pretty basic stuff.
Problem is, when we try to enter the first data in the subform, we get this error message :
"You can't assign a value to this object.
*The object may be a control on a read-only form.
*The object may be on a form that is open in Design view.
*The value may be too large for this field."
We get the message in the first field we go to, no matter which field we go to first.
None of the "may be" conditions apply.
When we hit "OK" the message goes away and we can enter our data, the records are created corrected. But as soon as we move to the next record, we get the same error.
I keep getting this message when I try and input a product ID in the subform in my 'Order Form', the message says 'you can't assign a value to this object' and when i try to click the row below it says 'You cannot add or change a record because a related record is required in table 'Invoices'', how can I change this? do i have to relate it to the Products table and if so how do i do this? Thanks, Bob.

I have searched the forums and I don't see this problem. I have a split database. When I test it it works fine. It resides on a network drives and permissions have been checked. When users try it they get an error message that says "you can't assign a value to this object". This occurs after they have selected a project and the user form opens. The user form appears blank.
I have gone to other offices and if I am signed on to their machines it works but if they are the message comes up. I'm at a complete loss and need some advice. It's probably as plain as the nose on my face but I've been struggling for days.
By the way - I used to be Mrs.Meeker...I haven't been around for a long time.
I am trying to use Access 2007 popup calendar to populate a combo box with a selected date. When I select the date on the calendar the above error appears.
Code:
Private Sub Calendar9_Click() 'Set Date to the selected date and hide the clalendar. MAssBDate.Value = Calendar9.Value MAssBDate.SetFocus Calendar9.Visible = False End Sub
I have an unbound form, with a subform datasheet (sfmStaffDS) - not linked to the parent form, which displays a list of all staff. There is another subform (sfmStaff), which displays data based on a field in the form which takes its value from the DA subform.To add a staff member I press the button and this clears the fields down as expected.
However, when I start entering data (in the First NAme field), I get the error as stated in the title. Interestingly, I can carry on and the data gets saved as 'normal'.I have used this technique before with success, except that the DS subform is linked to a value on the parent form.
I'm building a simple database for storing records about books.
I'm currently working on one of the data entry forms. Part of this form is supposed to enable the user to add details about the book and the series that it belongs to (if it does belong to one).
The relationship is One-to-Many: One series can have many books. I've made the series part a sub form.
When I enter some data to test that it works, I get an error message when I try to add a new series using the sub form. It says:
"You can't assign a value to this object. *The object may be a control on a read-only form. *The object may be on a form that is open in Design view. *The value may be too large for this field."
As far as I know there isn't anything wrong, so I'm not certain why this error message comes up. I think it may have something to do with the primary key being the AutoNumber data type, but I just click 'OK' and ignore it, and it works fine.
The database works as far as I can see, I just want the error message to stop appearing.
Not sure whats going on here, nothing on the table that stops this from working. I just get Run-time error "2448 You can't assign a value to this object" When the code runs.
Code: Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer) Dim rst As DAO.Recordset MySQL = " Select max(ID) from TblUserQry" Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(MySQL) Myid = rst.Fields(0) + Int(Rnd(1) * 10) Me.txtMyID.Value = Myid
I have a form that runs from a query which combines data from 2 tables. I am trying to set up a filter on the form using a number of combo boxes and text boxes and a command button to fire it but I keep getting the above error (on the .Filter = strFilter line) and I can't see what the problem is with my code.
Private Sub cmdApplyFilter_Click()
Dim strSSType As String Dim strArea As String Dim strDepot As String Dim strStatus As String Dim strRisk As String Dim strZone As String Dim strContractor As String Dim strFilter As String
If IsNull(Me.cboSSType.Value) Then strSSType = "'Like '*'" Else strSSType = "='" & Me.cboSSType.Value & "'" End If
If IsNull(Me.cboArea.Value) Then strArea = "'Like '*'" Else strArea = "='" & Me.cboArea.Value & "'" End If
If IsNull(Me.cboDepot.Value) Then strDepot = "'Like '*'" Else strDepot = "='" & Me.cboDepot.Value & "'" End If
If IsNull(Me.cboStatus.Value) Then strStatus = "'Like '*'" Else strStatus = "='" & Me.cboStatus.Value & "'" End If
If IsNull(Me.cboRisk.Value) Then strRisk = "'Like '*'" Else strRisk = "='" & Me.cboRisk.Value & "'" End If
If IsNull(Me.cboZone.Value) Then strZone = "'Like '*'" Else strZone = "='" & Me.cboZone.Value & "'" End If
If IsNull(Me.cboContractor.Value) Then strContractor = "'Like '*'" Else strContractor = "='" & Me.cboContractor.Value & "'" End If
Hi Gang, I'm new to this forum so please bare with me. I have spent the last two days trying to resolve, or work out why on earth I am getting this error message. I am at the point of pulling my hair out - its SO frustrating so *any* suggestion would be great. I have created a small database for plant (as in flowers) details. To cut a long story short, its a simple db fronted by a form that allows me to display and add records together with an associated image (stored outside the db). I was trying to write some code that would look at the control that displays the image and, if there is no image associated with a particular record, it would display an "add new image" button. If there is an associated image, the buttons visable property is set to false. I had ammended a section of code for the forms "on current" event and saved the changes. I then changed to form view, tried to enter a new record and access throws up the error message. It does not matter which field I try to add data in, the same error still happens. I have checked, and re-checked all my code and property settings for every control and field on the form and I can not track down what is causing this error. I noticed from searching this forum that someone else had this error but the resolution does not appear to have been posted so can anyone help in any way at all. My grateful thanks, Kenny
When I attempt to create a new DB - by performing Blank Database I immediately get a message 'Object Library not registered'.
If I 'OK' that box and try to create a table, I can do so - create Table in design view.
When I then try to Import external data - an excel file I get the message 'ActiveX component Can't create object'.
I have looked ob various sites for help and forum information regarding these errors but have found nothing conclusive, with specidfic regard to Access 2003.
The version has been loaded on my machine about 1 year as part pf Office Professional but this is the first time I have attempted to run Access itself.
Does any forum member have any ideas as to how this problem could be resolved.
I am currently building a database for the company I work for that is fairly similar to the Northwind Database; however it is made from scratch so hopefully some of the common problems with that database won't find their way into mine.My problem is that when I go to my Orders form, I pick a customer from the main form, which creates a record on the Orders table. When I then go to the subform to choose a product/line item, I get the error in my title ("The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'OrdersT.") as soon as a product is chosen from the drop down list.
I'm getting an error message (informational only):
The object doesn't contain the automation object 'ClientID.'You tried to run a visual basic procedure to set a property or method for an object. However, the component doesn't make the property or method available for Automation operations.
Check the components documentation for information on the properties and methods it makes available for automation operations. This happens when I start entering data in the field "productname" of a subform.
So I'm assuming something in the form or in the code of the form is referring to ClientID. but I've checked it, and there is nothing referring to it anymore. Well, at least as far as I'm aware of.
This afternoon access crashed without any error, it just closed. Upon reopening the DB again, all my work of the past one and a half week was gone. Normally I always backup the data, but these past days I didn't due to christmas and still working a lot too. So I forgot.
I did some redesigning in the process this evening, deleting and adding some fields and code.
I can't get rid of this error. Can anyone help? Or point me in the right direction?
Also the DB is 3.5MB in size. While it is completely empty. And I can't imagine that some empty tables, queries, forms and a bit of code can be so much. But that's for a later time to worry about I guess, unless one of you says: this and that, maybe that works... Otherwise, I would really be very glad already if the error disappears....
I am creating an form in a database and whenever one of my procedure's run it creates this error message:
The expression ON Load you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Member already exists in an object module from which this object module derives.
*The expression may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a user-defined function, or [event Procedure]. *There may have been an error evaluating the function, event, or macro.
I want to create a function module or something similar which will assign a variable to the max invoice # used on that table, using sql if possible. I tried something like this, but it's not working.
Public Function max()
Dim maxinvoice As String
maxinvoice = "SELECT Max(tbl_original.invoice) AS MaxOfinvoice" & _ "FROM tbl_original;"
MsgBox maxinvoice
End Function
I would like the msgbox to popup saying "5", since that is the max invoice # used based on the above table.
I don't have too much experience using modules on their own without forms and variables on the form to assign to, can someone make a suggestion?
Hello! I'm trying to assign a number to a set of rows so I can, essentially, create a dual primary key on a table. Below is an example of what I have...
The numbers are just "student numbers" if you will. Something that identifies them. The second column is basically the name of a course. What I would like to do is number each row, but only within the group of that individual.
I have a frm called frmaddprovider Main form see database I Also i have subform called frmsubformproviderids with 2 command buttons Add Provider ID and Refresh data
When i generate a report by selecting insurance name, insurance id, from the table called tbladdinsurance and also select Provider, Pin from the table called tblproviderids
When i generate the report as you can see by the sample database only insurances that are selected in the combo box shows up
How do I assign a default value so if the insurance combo box in the subform field is left blank it will automatically assign the Pin# to all insurances and when i generate the report it will show all insurances along with provider and Pin#
I have been pulling my hair out (OK, I would be if I had enough to do so) over trying to assign a value to a control on a form. Basically, when a change is made to the form, I'm using the AfterUpdate event to trigger the code. The code in the event is
Me.txtWho = Environ("UserName")
Simple, straightforward or so I thought. Problem is, it gives me an error stating I cant' assign a value to that object. txtWho is bound to a field in the query underlying the form and the control is enabled and not locked. Can anyone shed some light on this for me please????
Hi, all! I'm working on another project and need some advice.
I've got a form where users enter items that will be listed in a budget report. This budget report is submitted to the client for approval. Once approved, these items need to be entered into a PO (purchase order) form and report. There is a checkbox that says approved for PO on the budget form for each record.
What I'm looking for is a way to group the records (that have been approved for purchase) together by vendor, and assign them PO #'s. I know that the end result will be doing an append query that will throw all the records into the PO table, but I don't know how to get the grouping and everything to work.
Does this question make sense? If not, please let me know what info you need. I really need help with this. Any ideas? Thanks!
I have a simple combo box with two options - elective and emergency. They are set up on a continuous form. When i try to choose a value it comes up with the message "You cannot assign a value to this object". I have checked the three criteria it mentions, object being on a form open in design view (no), value too large for field (no - text field with (defaulted) size of 50), control on a read -only form (no, form is editable). The strange thing is as soon as you clear the error message box it lets you enter the value anyway. Any ideas?
Hi, in my database I have a 7 subforms that shows fields for daily tasks for each day of the week. On the Monday, the tasks are assigned and then stored for every record for the corresponding date. The process is done again on tuesday, then wednesday etc. However, often the daily tasks for say tuesday will be very similar (sometimes the same) to that of monday's.
Therefore is there a way to set the default values for each day as the previous days tasks and then alter them if needed?
