Change An Entire SubForm Within A Tab Based On Combo

Aug 24, 2004

I have a Form with some combo box's in header and a TabControl with 5 tabs in Body.

In each Tab I have a subform. All is working as should.. each form is requerying perfectly based on user combo choices.

What I would now like to do is swap one subform in one tab for another subform, depending on what choice is made in combo box.

That is...

Combo choice 1 ... requires Subform's 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5 in Tab's 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5 ..
Combo choice 2 though... requires Subforms's 1, 2, 6, 7, & 8 in same Tabs. .. Tab's are umbrella's for multitude of subform possibilities.

I really need some guidence here. Thanks.

Forms :: Change Record Source Of Combo Box On Form Based On Another Combo Box

Mar 31, 2014

I have a form that currently uses a "catch all" table for listing available equipment to choose from for an equipment field. I call it tblEquipment. What I want to do is to make it so when I type a name in (1 of 35) in one field of the current record, the record source for the equipment field immediately looks at a different table that has equipment available only for that name. To do this I plan on making 35 different tables with limited data originally found in tblEquipment. I would call these tblEquipment1, tblEquipment2, etc. I do not use a sub form, nor do I want to.

So my questions are:

1) can this be done
2)If it can be done, how can I do it?

If I choose Africa in cboContinent, I want to see only Zambia, South Africa and Congo under cboCountry and if I choose Europe I want to see only England and Holland

C Disable subform somehow because it doesn't apply

Could someone please provide some advice on how I could do this.

Change Subform Based On Form Selection

Jul 2, 2005

Greetings! This forum has been most helpful to a rusty Access user.

I'm creating a student group score entry form, having problems with creating the form I want. Say for example we have the following:
1. Three groups: A,B, and C.
2. Group A has 5 students, Group B has 3, and Group C has 20.

I want a form where I can select group A, and a list of the students will populate and enable me to enter scores for all of them on the same page. This will save time not having to re-enter the information for so many students. If anyone has a clue of what I'm talking about or is willing to lend me aid, I would appreciate it.

Cheers.

Forms :: Change Items In A Combo Box Based On A Field

May 29, 2014

So I have a combobox that pulls values from a table. I am being requested to do an update to the database which means that I have to filter some values on that combobox based on a field on a previous form.For example:The main form is called "frmcontacts" and has a table field called "txttypeofcustomer" which can have two values: "customer" or "dealer".

The form that contains the combobox is called "frmnewissue" the combobox is called "cmbissuetype". "frmNewIssue" is opened through a button on "frmContacts". This combobox pulls the values from a table "tblissuetype". The values in that combobox are then: "Repair" "Return" "Question" "Replace".

If the value on txtTypeofCustomer is "Dealer" then all the values for the combobox remain visible. If the value of txtTypeOfCustomer is "Customer" then "Replace" cannot be visible or has to be greyed out.

Forms :: Change Form Details Based On Two Combo Boxes

Jun 12, 2014

I have two combo boxes in the form header and command buttons in the form detail. The combos allow the user to select either a customer or a prospect, then the command buttons open forms that only show records pertaining to the customer or prospect selected. Combos are "4Custcbo" and "4Proscbo".

1.How do I change which command buttons are available depending on whether the user has selected a customer or a prospect? Do I use two different subforms or is there a better way?

2.How do I hide the other combo box once the user has selected either a customer or a prospect?

Change Value In Query From Command Button Based On Selection In Combo Box?

Jun 3, 2015

I have a dashboard-style form that has a list box with tasks connected to a query with line items of those tasks.

I have another query that will only show the line item selected from the list box. This means the query will only have one line item.

I want to have a command button below the list box that, when clicked, will modify the solo item in the second query to change a yes/no field from no to yes.

How can I accomplish this? Also, how can I make a button that deletes the selected line item?

Filter Subform Based On Combo Box

Dec 13, 2005

Hello everyone!

I think I am asking the impossible, but can't think why it can't be done!

Here's the dilema:

I am working with an unbound form to search a Mobile Register.

On the form I have an unbound combo box which looks up User details from a table (LKP_User).

When I select a user, I want the subform below to filter all the details for that user and show me which mobiles they have.

PROBLEM:
Combo Box has 3 fields, User_ID, User, Dept_ID. User_ID is bound column but not displayed in combo (only User) is displayed.

I need to link the User_ID with the User_ID on the subform, but don't know how to tell it to look at column 1 of the combo box.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Do I need some fancy code to get this to work?

Cheers in anticipation
NKA

Refresh Subform Based On Combo Box Selection

Dec 30, 2005

I have a form with three subforms, and I'm having problem with one of them. The link between subforms and forms are store number, which is stored in a combo box. Idealy, after a user pick a store from the combo box, the subform would update itself. Two out of the three subforms are based on two crosstab queries and they work perfectly fine. The last subform is a select query, and it seems like it's not rerunning itself after updating the combo box. The query is very simple, it just has store number, description, and grouped by amount. I tried with no criteria in the store field and run the masterform,seems like all it's doing is showing value for the first store in the table, and never changes afterwards, I also tried entering "forms!frmStores!cmbStore" in the criteria for the store, then the subform came out empty, it seems like it's only reading combo box's default value null. I have a line of code for the mater form frmStores as "me.[DisplaySubform].requery" for all three subforms, but it seems like it's working for the first two and not the select query. Anybody can help me with this? oh, the combo box is unbounded, because i do not want my table to be updated by selection. Please help

Open Subform Based On Form With Combo Box

Oct 27, 2005

I have a main form (FRMProspects) with a combo box (ComboCoName) that has a query as it's record source to sort the records displayed in it. It is bound by the CustID (autonumber), but displays the CompanyName.

What I want to do is open a sub form FRMNotes, based on the Company name that is selected in the ComboCoName. So for Company XY, I want to click on the Notes command button to open up all the notes for that company only (filtered). FRMNotes is based on a different table, but TBLProspects and TBLNotes are linked by CustID (one to many).

What code do I need for this? I am treading water with VBA!

Opening A Subform Based On Criteria From A Combo Box

Sep 30, 2004

The posting in archive t-31918 was very helpful and almost does the trick. I have a subform with gifttype that has only giftID and gifttype. There are four different gift types and I need a subform to open in a specific location, as a subform. The code given by the archive (my version):

Private Sub Gifttype_AfterUpdate()
If Me.[Gifttype] = "restricted/unrestricted" Then
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmgift1"
ElseIf Me.[Gifttype] = "planned gift" Then
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmplannedgift"
End If
...

Opens what I want as subform as a regular form.

How can I get the correct subform to populate a certain area on the master form?

Thank you!

Selecting Records In A Subform Based On Several Combo Boxes

Feb 2, 2005

Here is an example of what I am trying to do:

I have a main form which has 4 combo boxes all based on tblPeople.
Combo0 is skill
Combo1 is discipline
Combo2 is crart
Comb03 is active

The sub form is a datatable list of the tblpeople.

How do I apply the filter to the datatable. I am assuming I need to build a sql statement somewhere like SELECT from tlpeople WHERE me!combo0 = [tblpeople].[skill] and me!Combo1=[tblpeople].[discipline] etc

Is there a sample database? or can somebody tell me how to go about this.

Thanks
Steve

General :: Display Record In A Subform Based On Combo Box Value

Oct 11, 2012

I'm creating a database for my inventory. For now, my database have two tables namely tblSupplies and tblDetails. I have a main from (frmMain) and a subform (subDetails). On the main form i have a combobox (cboSupplies) and 5 textboxes, the cboSupplies and the five textboxes are unbound. If I select a value in cboSupplies it will populate the rest of the textboxes-OK.

What I want to accomplish is that when I select a value in cboSupplies it will grab all related records from the tblDetails and populate these records on the subform (subDetails).

SuppliesID was used as the link field from mainform to subform but its not working. Please note that SuppliesID field in tblSupplies and tblDetails has a One-to-Many relationships.

Modules & VBA :: Populate Data Sheet Subform Based On Combo Box Selection ALL

Aug 20, 2013

I have an unbound combobox on a form that is used to filter the records of a subform based on who they have been assigned to. The combo box is based off of a query to the personnel table and utilizes a UNION querry to add the option "**ALL**" with a id number "111111" as the first option in the combo box.

In other words: the combo box has a list of names to choose from and the word "ALL" at the top as the first selection. The idea is that when "**ALL**" is selected, the subform should display all records regardless of who they have been assigned to. I'm trying to accomplish this with VBA. I've started developing the code to try to impliment this, however currently when "**ALL**" is selected, I'm getting a datatype missmatch that seems to be caused by my use of recordset.

Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub cboTaskListName_AfterUpdate()
'On Error GoTo cboTaskListName_AfterUpdate_Err
Me.Refresh

[code]...

Also once the queried records are saved into the record set, how can I communicate that to the subform so that it displays them?

Populate Form Based On Combo Box "On Change"

Mar 6, 2007

Hey all,

I'm new to Microsoft Access but I'm not new to programming. What I want to do is when the combo box triggers and On Change event, do the following:

SELECT user_email FROM user WHERE user_first LIKE '[COMBO BOX CHOICE]'

Then set the value of that query to the textbox called "reportedEmail". I know this is easy, but I can't seem to find a decent tutorial on it anywhere.

Suggestions?

Thanks,

Filtering Field In 2nd Subform Based On Selection In 1st Subform

Sep 1, 2006

I almost have this form done.

I have a form with a combo box, and 2 subforms from it. When you select in the combo box (Group), it brings up the choices (Sections) for that group in a subform. Then there is another subform, that is supposed to bring up a series of questions that are related to the section that has been selected. The question field has a drop down to a list table, that has all the questions. Once the question has been selected, it stores in a Master table. The relationship is there. If you try to select any questions that do not pertain to the section, it gives you an error message.

What I need it to do, is when the section is selected, filter out the questions that pertain to that section, and have those questions be the only ones available in the drop-down list to choose.

I know that I need to have an After Update code once the section has been selected, but not sure how the coding should be.

I hope that someone can help with this!

Forms :: Fill Text Box Based On Combo Box (not Using Columns In Combo Box)

May 21, 2014

I'm looking for a way to have a text box auto fill based on the selection of a combo box on the same form. I cannot use the method i find all over the internet of using multiple columns in the combo box and basing the text box on that because the combo box already has multiple columns being used to determine its own possibilities and other combo box possibilities.

I would really just like the text box to work like this, but im still kinda inexperienced in VBA...

If combo box is "F004-001", then text box is "237"
If combo box is "F004-003", then text box is "280"

I know how to add in an "after update" thing, but i do not know how to do If/then statements.
