Can't Disable Form.AllowEdit
Aug 24, 2005
Hi, I got a strange problem. When I set MyForm.AllowEdits to "False", I can still edit the fields on it from Access 2002 I am working with. I searched the documentation and found I did nothing wrong. But when I copy the file to another computer running Access 2000, the setting works there. Now I can copy back the program to my own computer and it works. It is so strange to me. Why the same setting works differently in different computer? Any suggestions and expanation will be appreciated!

Hello. I have a form with a million little buttons on it (don't get me started, I didn't design it! - heh)...
Depending upon which user is running the mdb, I would like all but 16 (of the 80 or so) objects/controls disabled/enabled. I would like to autodisable all the controls, then enable the subset (or all of them) depending who the current user is.
SO in short, other than individually disabling/enabling the many items, is there a magic command for vba, similar to enable *.* for controls [silly e.g., but I hope you get my point...]
Thoughts!
Thanks!

Hi all, I have a main form which contains buttons to control all other window. I'd like to prevent user to work on two forms at the same time. Can anyone advise me how to disable the main window while the second window is opened?

Hi,
I am currently working on a database and I'm using a form to view the records. A standard Access behavior is to show an empty record (new record) as the last one. is there a way to disable this "feature". I would like my form to display only the records, which are really filled with data and not show the blank one at the end??
Thanx in advance
Luke

I have a fully functioning frmLogin that appears when the database opens. After correctly logging in, it takes you to the appropriate switchboard. The problem is that I set autokeys to allow F1 to automatically open the switchboard, but I don't want users to hit this to bypass my login screen. The reason for keeping the switchboard open is to force the user to close the database using the switchboard(eventually I want to limit the user to only the forms that I have created in a split database).
My other option that I tried first was writing a module that would detect when all forms are closed, then open the switchboard. But I kept getting Error91 and got frustrated/stopped attempting this method. Using the hotkey gives the user a similar functionality, but less conveniently so(since its not an automated process, etc.).

In A2007 if you disable the Navigation Buttons on the form the Me.RecordCount will be set to 1 when the form opens ? I replace the Nav buttons with my own set but my "Go Next" button will not work untill I hit "Go to Last". This apparently restores the recordset count to the correct number of records.

I am running Access 2010. I have added the following to the "On Open" event on my main form:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
DoCmd.ShowToolbar "Ribbon", acToolbarNo
DoCmd.NavigateTo "acNavigationCategoryObjectType"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdWindowHide
Me.ShortcutMenu = False
End Sub
My main form (frmMain) is displayed when the database opens. As you can see, I am hiding the ribbon and the navigation pane from users. I also want to prevent users from right clicking on the form and opening it in Design view - trying to prevent any monkey business. However, the line:Me. ShortcutMenu = False
is not preventing users from right clicking on the form and getting the shortcut menu and going into Design view.If I go to Options and uncheck: "Allow Default Shortcut Menus" then I lose the ability to print reports because I have the ribbon hidden and this will not allow right click on reports.Converting to .accde is not an option at this time.

Apologies if this is an obvious one but is it possible to hide this:
"Record:1 out of 34" and the arrow buttons at the bottm of a form(s)?
I would rather use my own Next Record and Previous Record buttons so it would dieal to disable/hide these arrow buttons.
Many thanks for your assistance in advance,
Paul.

I am asked to create a checklist for a number of tasks to be executed in a particular shift. However in some tasks can be skipped. There are three shifts per day.
To accomplish this i have created a continious form with a number of checkboxes per task which represent the days of the week. The tasks itself are stored in a seperate table with a checkbox per shift (task settings). If the tasks must be performed in a particular shift, the checkbox is activated (= true).
Goal here is, if a task doesn't have to be executed in a shift the task should not be visible on the continious form. The recordsource of the continuous form is a query, which contains a join between the table with the task settings and the table with the tasks performed.
I have placed some code to perform the task in the form's current event
In the continuous form current event I have placed for every checkbox the following code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
If Me. PerformTaskShift.Value = True Then
Me.MaandagOchtend.Enabled = False
End If
End Sub
However when i execute the code and load the form, not only the checkbox in the row mentioned are set invisible, all the rows are. Is there any way to set only the checkboxes on the rows mentioned invisible, in stead of all rows?

I have a form called PAF_Assignment and on this form there are many textboxes for editing. After all fields are entered, the user clicks on a button and this button populates the PAF_Issued_Date field with the actual date.
Then I want to disable (enable=False) all fields on this form once there is a date on PAF_Issued_Date as I don't want any user to make any changes after submitting it, although the user would still be able to read the information submitted.
I have tried the following...
PAF_Assignment Form AfterUpdate Event
If Me.PAF_Issued_Date=Not null Then
Me.FieldName1.Enabled=False
Me.FieldName2.Enabled=False
Me.FieldName3.Enabled=False
[Code] ......
However this is not working, there is no error message or anything but the fields remain enabled with the date...

I have a table form (I want to have many records available in the screen)
I want to disable fields based on a value of another (main) field.
The fields are check boxes, so the automate formatting is not available.
I use the VBA code below:
Select Case name1
Case "POINT"
Me.sf1.Enabled = False:
Case "SIDE OUT"
Me.sf2.Enabled = False
Case Else
Me.sf3.Enabled = False
End Select
but the fields become disable to all records, not only to the records under the right condition. Why?

I have written code to look up a value in a table that then enables or disables a subform in my main form. The code works, but I know it is now as efficient as it can be. The main problem is that I have multiple values that determine if the subform should be enabled or disabled. I would like to use an IN statement but I'm pretty sure this doesn't work for Dlookup. Below is an example of the code I currently have:
Code:
Sub enablecontrols(setting As Boolean)
Inv_subform.Enabled = setting
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Current()
[Code] ....
Like I said, this works fine, but I am concerned if I need to add more items to look up and the stability of the code in general.

I am looking to completely disable a record when a specific Yes/No tick box is checked.
By that I mean all form fields are locked and disabled when the Yes/No tick box is checked (Yes)

Basically I want to put a code in the "on load" event of a form that enables or disables navigation buttons based on a value in a table (the table has 1 record and 1 column).
So if the value is "A", I want to hide navigation buttons on load; if it is "B", I want to show navigation buttons on load.
I know I can set this property in each form, but I have a number of forms that I want to configure at the same time.
My problem is that I don't know how to reference the value in the table.

Many thanks
