Hi all, I have a search form that pulls data from a query. The data is displayed in a subform. I would like the user to be able to edit the data from the subform. I have set all the allow properties to yes and it still doesn't work. Does this problem have anything to do with relationships.
Thanks to all, this forum has been a great help for me.
Hi,
Have a main form with subform. Can udo edits on the main form and am trying to do the same for the subform and am having problems. Can someone correct my syntax for me please..........and maybe someday I'll get it!
Here's my code below....thanx.

i want to create an edit button as seen in the picture below in my subform, the record source for the form in the picture is,
SELECT tblLoans.*, IIf([Status]<>"Closed","Edit","") AS Edit, * FROM tblLoans ORDER BY tblLoans.Title;
and the record source in the sub form where i want the edit button is
SELECT DISTINCT [BookID], [Genre],[Title],[Author],[Available_in_library] from qrySearch WHERE 1=1
and i was wondering how to put the button in the sub form
To make a long story short I have a command button that runs a query and opens a subform based on that query. I want to be able to update the records that are returned (via the subform) but I am getting an error - "This Recordset is not updateable". I've tried changing the recordset property to Dynaset (Inconsistent Updates) but that didn't seem to change anything.
Anyone point me in the right direction?
Main form is frmPeople
As you can see i have a subform called frmPeopleInsurancesSub
Next to that I have a Edit Command button which open a forms called
PeopleInsurances
When user wants to edit one of the insurances all user has to do is click on on one of the insurance and click edit to take user to that record
But cant make it work
Any Ideas
I have inherited a partially completed membership Access database which I
understand was originally generated from a load of linked FoxPro tables.
There is a form which uses multiple tabs, the first tab contains general
membership data (ie name, age etc) and this pulls data through from the
'Main' table in the database. Each of the other tabs includes a subform which
shows data held in a number of different tables linked to the 'Main' table
(eg, first tab - general data from 'Main table', 2nd tab - home addreses
from 'Home Address' table, 3rd tab - business addresses from 'Business
Address' table). All tables are linked to the 'Main' table through a common
'RegisterID' field. When I open the form I can query on any of the records
and amend and items of data on the various tabs them without any problem.
However if I add a new record using the >* option from the record navigation
I can add data to the first tab (ie. into the 'Main' table) but if I move to
the 2nd or 3rd tab I am unable to edit/add data to the fields on those tabs.
But if I save the record after completing the fields on the first tab and
then close the form and reopen it I can then edit the 2nd and 3rd tabs, can
you suggest how I can change the setup to allow editing/adding data to the
2nd and 3rd tabs without having to close the form and reopen it please. I
have checked the subforms and they are set to AllowEdit and there are NoLocks.
I've created a form that contains two subforms. Subform1 is a datasheet, subform2 is a regular form containing a subform (subform3) of it's own which is a datasheet.
Subform2 is linked to display detail information based on subform1...which works fine. Subform3 is linked to subform2 displaying additional details. When I open the master form everything displays ok and subform3 displays the correct information, but when I click on one of the records to edit it the form refreshes about 5 times and then record 1 in subform3 gets selected. In other words, I am unable to select any other record except record 1 in subform3 and thus unable to edit the records.
I have subform3 set to allow edits, additons, deletions and when I open subform3 by iteself I am able to edit/add/delete just fine.
This would all work fine if I did not need to edit subform3...all the links work perfectly and display's correct information. I am stumped. I hope I am missing something obvious.
Thanks.
May be this is easy for your guys. I want to freeze or lock the mainform data fields while allowing users to input, edit, delete data on a subform. I tried to change mainform properties so it can not edit, add or delete data on mainform. By doing so, I cannot do anything with subform, it seem read only as well.
Thank you for help

I have created a form (races) with a subform (yachts in a race) to edit data in joined tables. It seems to be working well but I am having difficulty selecting which record to edit in the main form. I can scroll through the records until i get to the correct race but this won't work well when there are a large number of races to choose from.
I can see that I can use linked forms to select a race from a multi form or datasheet and call up my desired form by a double click on the ID field. This should work but isn't really elegant with users scrolling down a long datasheet to select the race record they want to work with. Is there a better way?
Races are uniquely identified by 3 attributes: SeriesDivision, Date & RaceNumber.I have created an index in the Race table for these 3 fields which forces them to be unique.I would love to create an interactive routine which asks users to select from a list for each of these 3 attributes and then returns the form for editing with the appropriate race record selected or even cascading - users select a SeriesDivision can then choose the valid dates for the selected SeriesDivision and can then select the valid raceNumbers for the selected date
i've got a Form that contains Subform with an embedded Query that contains 2 tables only (Payments & Invoices) the Join properties between them show all records from payments and what matches it from Invoices where the joined fields are equal (Invoice no).. So, when i enter certain data in the main form the Subform show the results for it from Payments table and only one field needed from the Invoices table !!
The problem is.. i can't edit or add any data in the Subform results with the previous setting, but when i completely remove the Invoices table from the embedded Query then swift to the Form and it's Subform.. i become able to edit and add data in the Subform easily... !!
So, how to enable the edit/add in the Subform with the 2 tables in the embedded Query ?! Cause it's really needed to show that field from the Invoices table.
I have a form "Handover" on this form I have a button that enables edit functionality once clicked, I now have a subform on this form named "Bdown".
The Bdown subform allows edits without having to click the "btn_Edit" on the main form "Handover".
Is is possible to make the edit button on "Handover" control the edit function on "Bdown" also?
Currently "Handover" contains:
Code:
Private Sub btn_Edit_Click()
Me.AllowEdits = True
Me.btn_Edit.Caption = "Editing"
End Sub
[Code] .....
I have a query which looks for like * surname*
in tblemployee fname lname dept active
this works fine and i can search using a requery button
however as deptartments are stored in tbldepts
when i change the query to retrieve the dept name instead of number directly from the table and i try to change this on the datasheet subform it changes it in tbldepts instead?
how can i change what dept the employee is in (as in change the number in tblemployee - but display the actual name?)
I had Access '97 and was able to edit my table and make changes, etc.
I upgraded to Access 2000 and now I cannot edit my table and make changes, etc. The table is not locked.
Why?:confused:
I'm accessing an iSeries database with MS Access and Client Access ODBC driver. This works fine for reports and such, but not for editing or updating.
Trying to use edit queries, I get error 3073 (..must use an updatable query). But if I just open a table in Access and don't use a query, you should be able to edit directly into the table. But for me, this isn't possible.:confused:
What could be the problem?
I have a form called contractors. It works exactly like I want it but it won't let me edit it. The form is based on a query. I have checked the query as stated to do on some areas of this forum and I am able to change it by typing something in a field and it also updates the form for me but I can't edit the form directly. I have allow edits, allow deletions, allow additions set to yes and I have no locks on it. Any ideas?
I have also checked help in access on this to no avail. I am attaching the database so somebody can hopefully help me.

I've got a project where an existing access db is being converted for use on a web site.
Our problem is that several of the macros apparently reference an 'S:' drive.
Is there any way I can edit these macros to change / remove the drive reference?
A few years ago a consultant created a database for my company and trained one person on how to use it. Unfortunately, this person shortly left and the system was never used! I would like to get the system up and running, however I am a complete novice with Access and although I have figured out the basics I am having trouble with the one form that we use to enter data. Two of the drop-down or combo boxes must be completed by the person entering data in order for the record to be saved. How do we turn off this mandatory setting for each combo box? Or how do we add an option to the combo box that at least says N/A if the data enterer does not have the information on hand?
this is driving me crazy!!!

I have just finished my first access database, well almost, one problem- I can't edit or type anything on my database when I am using a link to an xml workbook. If I just import the xml file to use on my database I can edit and save it but not when I used a linked xml worksheet. If I change the xml file entries in Excel, the changes appear on the linked database but it won't work the other way around - I can't even type anything in any of the fields. What have I done wrong and how can I remedy this problem? Any help would be much appreciated.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to only let one user at a time edit or save to the table in the back end of my database? For example; I want it to pop up and say "you dummy there is another person with this file open"
Can I do this just incase two people try to edit the same table information???
Hi, I have a form called Edit Column, which contains two text boxes: ID and Description. The user types something in these two boxes and presses a button, and this button should take the value of ID and edit description for that particular ID in the table "Map". Here is the code I have written for it:
Dim d As Database
Set d = CurrentDb
Dim r As Recordset
Set r = d.OpenRecordset("Map")
r.MoveFirst
If r! = Me.Text1 Then [I]('Text1 is the text box where the user enters an ID)
Do While Not r.EOF
r.Edit
r![Description] = Me.Text3
r.Update
r.MoveNext
Loop
MsgBox "Successful", vbInformation
Else
MsgBox "This column does not exist in the Store", vbCritical
End If
Thanx in Advance
I have searched the forum and didnt find an answer to this.
I have an Edit Form. When it is opened, it displays the first record.
I have a Combo Box where I select the specified ID and the relevant record is displayed in the form.
What I want is that the Edit Form should be appear blank. The record data should appear only when I select the relevant ID in the Combo Box.
How do I achieve this? Please help.
