Cancel Record In Subform If Click Cancel On Parent Form Before Save

May 24, 2014

I have a form and a subform in it. I added New cancel button in the form so that the the user can cancel the record creation and no record will be inserted in the parent table.

But when details are entered in the subform (a datasheet) row records will be created in the subform table. what is the correct method or how to cancel these records if the user choose to click cancel button on the parent form.

Subform - Cancel Before Update

Jul 26, 2006

I have a subform which asks a user to confirm the update before it happens - if the user selects no - then the update is cancelled.


When the parent (they are not related record wise) form is closed the update on the subform is attempted - if the user selects no - how can I cancel the close of the parent form. At the moment a message saying "Cannot save the record at this time - changes may be lost". Which I don't want to see.

Thanks

Hit (cancel) But Record Still Creates?

Jul 31, 2015

When I launch my modal, I want the user to be able to 'cancel' without creating a new record. It's not doing that and creating extra 'junk' in my table. How do I prevent that?

Here's my code:
Private Sub Btn_Exception_SubModal_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "Frm_Exception_UpdateModal", acNormal, , acFormAdd
Forms! [Frm_Exception_UpdateModal]![clientnmbr].value = Me![clientnmbr].value
End Sub

Cancel Adding New Record If Condition Is True

Oct 11, 2007

Hi

I wrote code that should validate a field when entering a new record and then if a condition is true, that new record should be cancelled and not entered into the table.

I managed to partially achieve this by writing the code below, but the new record does not get cancelled because the table will still create a PK for that record and leave the rest of the fields empty. I am using an autonumber for the PK that's why the table creates it automatically What I want to achieve is to cancel the creation of a new record at once, I don't want even PK created for that new record.

I used the CancelUpdate because I thought it would cancel the record creation, but it did not! When I read about it it said that I need to use it with either Edit or AddNew, (which i don't understand why!) but it still does not work.

Private Sub PlotNum_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
On Error GoTo Err_msg
Dim db As DAO.Database, rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim n As Integer, i As Integer
Dim vPlotNum As Integer
Dim vPhaseID As Integer

vPhaseID = Forms![frmHouse].Form![PhaseID]
vPlotNum = Forms![frmHouse].[qryHouse2].Form![PlotNum]

Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tblHouse")
rs.MoveLast
n = rs.RecordCount
rs.MoveFirst
If n > 0 Then
For i = 1 To n
If rs![PhaseID] = vPhaseID Then
If rs![PlotNum] = vPlotNum Then
rs.Edit
rs.CancelUpdate
MsgBox "This plot number already exist in this particular phase." & vbCrLf & "Please choose a different Plot Number"
Forms![frmHouse].qryHouse2.Form![PlotNum].Text = ""
End If
End If
rs.MoveNext
Next i
End If
rs.Close
db.Close
Set db = Nothing
Set rs = Nothing

Exit_Err_msg:
Exit Sub

Err_msg:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Err_msg
End Sub


Any suggestions will be very much appreciated.
Thanks.
B

Queries :: Cancel Age Calculation Query For One Record

Mar 26, 2013

I have the following age calculation query:

Age: (Now()-[DOB])365

It works a treat! However, I do not want this to continue to calculate if the record has them as deceased - I want it to stop at their date of death.

I have a tick box that when selected indicates that this record has died, and a field where you can enter date of death.

Is there some way that via clicking this button, or by entering a date of death, I can stop the Age Query from calculating for just that relevant record, not all of them? If so, where to place the necessary VBA, etc?

Cancel Out Of Edit Form

Nov 1, 2006

Hi
I have a form with avout 4 fields based upon a query to allow user to edit an entry if needed.
I want to put a cancel button on so that if they change their mind after having changed a field it reverts to its original value - so for instance they decide to change a land line phone number to a mobile, exit the field but then have a brain storm and decide not to do this so hit the cancel button.
At the moment my cancel button just closes the form (and accepts the overwrite) which would be fine if I am using ADO but not if I am using a bound form.
I am sure there is a simple answer (since I cannot be the only person who thinks this option might be a good idea). I am just not sure how to look for it.
Any thoughts or ideas?
Thanks

Want To Cancel Prompt, Select No And Still Closes Form

Aug 14, 2007

Hi All,

I have a pop up form that requires me to fill out all 4 fields of the form. When I don't, I get a prompt telling me which field(s) I've forgotton to fill in and allows me the option to Cancel (Yes or No) and if i decide yes it wont save and will close the form. BUT when I say No (Don't cancel), it still closes out the form and I obviously don't want that. I don't know if it might have to do with my macro button either? Any clue?

Thanks in Advance!

MY CODE:

Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim blnError As Boolean
Dim strError As String

strError = "You are missing data for "

If IsNull(Me.[Account Number]) Or Me.[Account Number] = "" Then
blnError = True
strError = strError & "Account Number,"
End If

If IsNull(Me.Contact) Or Me.Contact = "" Then
blnError = True
strError = strError & " Contact,"
End If

If IsNull(Me.Department) Or Me.Department = "" Then
blnError = True
strError = strError & " Department,"
End If

If IsNull(Me.Address) Or Me.Address = "" Then
blnError = True
strError = strError & " Address,"
End If

If blnError Then
strError = Left(strError, Len(strError) - 1)
If MsgBox(strError & vbCrLf & "Are you sure you want to cancel." & vbCrLf & "If you do, the info will not be added.", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Close Confirmation") = vbNo Then
Cancel = True
End If
End If
End Sub

Forms :: Cancel When Hitting Form X Button

May 9, 2013

Here's the setup:

- I have a parent form bound to a parent table with a subform bound to a subtable.

- The parent does not allow data entry and has its sole field filled by a listbox.

- The subForm is a data entry form which contains two buttons in addition to it's fields: btnCancel and btnOK

-btnOK checks to ensure that all required fields are filled out and then saves and closes the parent form. - ALL OK

- btnCancel closes undoes any changes andcloses the form - ALL OK

The issue I have is with the user utilizing the Parent form x button to close the form. For uniformity I would like to not remove this button but would like it to prompt the user whether to discard the changes if the form is dirty.

I attempted the following on both the parent and sub forms to no avail. I can't even get the event to trigger:

Code:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim rspSaveorDiscard As VbMsgBoxResult
rspSaveorDiscard = vbYes

If Me.Dirty Then
intSaveorDiscard = MsgBox("Are you sure you want to close without saving?", vbYesNo, "Discard Changes")

[Code] .....

I was under the impression that when closing a form using the x button the before_update event was triggered first, then the close event, then the unload event. How should I handle this?

Modules & VBA :: Button To Cancel Entry On A Form

Jul 17, 2013

I'm looking for a button that cancels an entry on a form. I want everything within that form to be cancelled including the Primary Key field. I currently have a button the uses the me.Undo code and then automatically closes, however this only clears the data that has been entered by the user. So when the user re-opens the form the primary key field is showing a 2 instead of a 1.

Cancel Validation Rule Message Boxes On Closing Form

Oct 26, 2006

I want to close a form and I am using

Private Sub Form_Close()
Application.Quit
End Sub

as the form opens with the access application window hidden, and I found that the .ldb file didn't close if I simply used the X.

I have a series of fields with validation rules which activate on exit. One of these validation rules is in the box which gets focus when the form opens. This means that I get the validation text error message boxes when I close the form with the X.

If I have started to complete the form, I get a whole host of error messages and validation messages when I try to shut it with the X.

Is there a way of closing the form and cancelling or ignoring all error message boxes. I want the user to be able to close the form if they have decided not to fill it in after all, or have got part way through and want to cancel.

I would really appreciate any help, I am sure this is a very basic question and I should probably be able to find the answer, but I can't and I am very fed up!

Forms :: Creating A Form That Require User Input To Confirm / Cancel Changes

Jun 24, 2013

I am fairly new to Access and my "changed" position at work requires that I learn much more about the software. My first challenge is to learn how to make an existing form prompt a user to confirm or cancel changes. I don't know anything about coding but I searched online and found some coded that is supposed to make this happen. I went to "form properties'' and typed this (below) in BeforeUpdate:

'If the form data has changed a message is shown asking if
'the changes should be saved. If the answer is no then
'the changes are undone

On Error GoTo BeforeUpdate_Error

[Code] ....

BeforeUpdate_Exit:
Exit Sub

BeforeUpdate_Error:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume BeforeUpdate_Exit

After saving changes to the design, I tested by changing the record. I received no prompt.

Forms :: Refresh Parent Form And Move To Next Record On Subform

Dec 10, 2013

I have two subforms on a "Page"/Tabs. Subform #1 is a continuous form which accepts data about dimensions of a pattern piece. The other subform needs to update its information display each time the last control of the first subform loses focus, because it tells me how much material is required for all pieces of this pattern that are entered.

My first feeble attempt at this was to add the following code to the "Lost Focus" event of the final control on the first subform:
Form.Parent.Refresh

This succeeded in forcing the second subform to re-run its calculation.

However, after the recalculation took place, I wasn't able to move to the next record on the first subform. This subform is a continuous form, and I need to be able to add another row of data and then see the second subform change based on the additional information in the first subform.

Obviously I've done this wrong.

Cancel, Escape Et Al

Mar 9, 2005

Using Access 97, I have a single-form allow-additions form where a couple of bound fields are auto-populated 'on current' and a couple of other bound fields are left to be populated by the user (me!).

At the end of an input session, I can press ESC and then close the form OK. But if I forget to press ESC and try to close the form, I have an invalid incomplete record on screen.

How do I indicate that the new record isn't wanted? I have tried stuff like
If Me!txtRequiredBoundField = Null then
SendKeys "(ESC)"
End If
to no avail.

Thanks in advance.

Cancel Feature Help

Jan 31, 2006

Hi, I want my user to be able to "cancel" his entry. At first I tried just deleting the record they were working on. But that added numbers in the auto number "ID" field, and I also needed the feature for editing, so deleting wasn't an option. As of now I have something that works, but is kind of messy. I made a mirror "temp table" that I write the record to. If they "save" i append/update the record to the regular table, then delete it from the temp, if they "cancel" I just Delete it from the temp. Was wondering if there was a cleaner way to do this ?

Cancel And Undo

Jun 1, 2006

Hello All,
I am finding this one difficult so felt I should post my issue.
I have status field on my form. It is a bound field.
A combobox - inactive, active.
I wanted the field to do the following when changed
If change then msgbox = Please enter reason in activity notes
a vbYesCancel
If they select it calls the activity notes form - this portion works.
If they select cancel I tried making the field do
form.field.undo (Me.statusid.undo) - something similar
Cancel = True
to reset the field to the original state.
This fails and says my object is not valid
I would be happy to take any suggestions . As always thanks in advance.

Cancel Feature

Oct 12, 2006

Hi

After looking through the forums, i couldn' really see the answer i was looking for.
I have a form, that users can enter in details (with an auto-number created which is assigned to each record). Once they have entered the detials, theres a 'save' button which will save the record - which is fine. I also have a 'return' button which should return to the previous form and doesnt save the record. But as it stands, the record is saved when i click this return button. How do i make it so that the record isnt saved untill the save button is clicked? so if i return from the screen (pressing the return button), the record isnt saved (i.e. a cancel button).

Thanks in advance :)
