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?
I am currently working on an existing database (not created by me) which contains several queries. Each query relates to a particular product.
I am wanting to create a form which has a combo box so that a user can choose a particular product from the combox options and then click on the command button to run the correct query.
How to do this. I have created the form and the combox (together with the list of products). I just need to know what Event Procedure code I need to enter to programme it to look for the correct query and then run it.
For example.
I have the following queries product1query product2query product3query
I have the following options in the combo box product1 product2 product3
How do I get the command button to look at the product1 option in the combo box and then find and run the product1query.
I have two combo boxes on the same form bound to a table. I want the contents of the next combo box to change based on the previous combo selection e.g
cboContinent cboCountry Africa Zambia Africa Congo Africa South africa Europe England Europe Holland
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
What to do, I have a form that will reset online user of my system the field is yes or no type boolean and i using combo box that will show only online people but my problem is how to reset the yes to no when i choose from the combo box a username I want to logout. I use command button also.
I have been looking some information on changing image based on form combo box selection on form.
I manage to do case by case but i need it in a simple code because their will be many employees just to avoid adding case by case code for each one.
Private Sub Emp_IDCombo_AfterUpdate() Select Case Emp_IDCombo.Value Case "AM-001" Imageholder.Picture = "C:UsersAMGDesktopam-001.jpg" Case "AM-002" Imageholder.Picture = "C:UsersAMGOne DocumentsHR & Admin DatabaseEmployee Picturesam-002.jpg" End Select
I have employees table where all images location is saved in text field and i have a combo box on form which is employee id.
Tables relationship Employees_table [PK] to Contracts_table [FK] via field name {emp_ID}
Fields Name Combo Box name on form Emp_IDCombo and row source is SELECT Employees_table.Emp_ID, Employees_table.EmployeeName, Employees_table.Emp_Pics FROM Employees_table;
Text field is located in employees_table called [Emp_Pic] for images location.
More Info" button based on Combo Box selection. I need to create a command button that can be used to see all of the data in the table for whatever name is selected in a combo box. For example, if John Smith is selected from the combo box, the user could click a "More Info" button, which will open a separate form showing all the data in the table for John Smith.
I have a tabbed form in a navigation form with a chart on it. The records source of the chart is a query. The query runs when you click the tab and takes a long time. I changed the Row Source of chart to "" and that eliminates the query running on form load. I've read many posts on changing that row source when a command button is clicked. I tried
in the onclick event of the command button. This doesn't work. I've tried many variations of the syntax. I don't know if I have to tell the query to run after the row source is changed.
On a side note, the query criteria is based on beginning and end dates entered into text boxes on the form. This all works if the query loads when the form is opened.
I have a form on which i make a selection. This selection then populates a query which in turn generates a report. The problem that i have is that when i go back into my form and make another selection the query, and therefore the report, holds the original data.
My question is how can i refresh the selection and therefore produce different reports based on this selection without exiting the application?
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.
I'm have quite a difficult time getting a form in Access 2010 to perform the way I would like it to. I have multiple tables that I've created, and a query that contains the data from the various tables. I then ran the form wizard to select the data from the query that I wanted to populate in my form and I've added 2 combo boxes.
What I want to do: 1. I want users to be able to select a category in combo box #1 (example: "Bag") 2. I want users to be able to select a detail in combo box #2 based on the category they selected in combo box #1 (example: Combo box #1, "bag" would populate the following selections for combo box #2: "sandwich" and "tool") 3. I want users to then receive a list of suppliers that provide the product they have selected, either "Bag: Sandwich" or "Bag: Tool"
I have combo box #1 populating a list of categories already. However, I am not able to get combo box #2 to provide choices based on the selection chosen for combo box #1.
Right now, I have a contact database with email addresses, and would like to know if anyone has any suggestions on how to implement a command button that when I click on it, it will do the action as clicking on a link that says
mailto:anyone@anyone.com
If I type the mailto: before the email address, and click on it, it will open the email message window, but I am looking for a way to have the user click on a button and then it opens the email message window.
I'm trying to build a database for daily work. My work in daily basis I have to fill all condition for several items.
We have two areas, with two locations under each area, and three systems under each location and each system contain more than 500 items.
I created all tables and fill by all information:
1-Table 1: Area 1, Area 2, Area 3, Area 4, Area 5, Area 6. 2-Table 2: Location 1, Location 2. 3-Table 3: System 1, System 2, System 3. 4-Table 4: all items under System 1-1-1 5-Table 4: all items under System 1-1-2
[Code] ....
Last table will be LogBook which will be as follow:
date l time l area l location l system l item l Conition1 l Conition2 l Conition3
My question regarding to the form of the above table:
How can I make a combo box for area field and when I select for example area1 will appear only the locations which under area1 in location field, and when I select location1 for example will appear only the systems under location1 in system field, and when I select system1 one for example will appear only items under system 1.Combo box list will be based on the selection in previous combo box and so on.
Once a supplier name is selected from the combo box i only want it displayed that suppliers products in the subform, subform. (products combo box) I can get a basic query to show these results but can get the combo box to do the same.
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?
I'm making a database that so I can log calibration information about equipment every year.I have 2 tables:
The Equipment details table The Calibration record table
ID Number is shared between the 2 tables so a calibration record can be linked to its' details.
For Example (simplified sample data):
Equipment Table ID Item Unit Type 104 Thermometer DegC PT100
Calibration Table ID Cal Point 1 Test Equipment Unit Under Test Date 104 20 21 22 06/01/15
What I want is a button on a form that creates a new blank record in my Calibration record table with the ID number already entered based on what record I selected in a combo box linked to my equipment table. I really don't know where to start.
if it is possible whereby if a user makes a selection in combobox 1 it must automatically generate the given vaules in combobox2 from the selection in combobox 1.
I know how to assign an event to a combo box, but I want to be able to launch a specific link, app, or email template, based on the actual selection from the combo box. So when I make a selection, whatever program or event I assign, to that specific selection, will launch.
Per the instructions detailed here... http://www.fontstuff.com/access/acctut08.htm
...I created a parameter query in the form of a drop down box that, once an option is selected, should display a form with a number of fields pre-filled from a record chosen by the drop-down selection.
The drop down has a command button with the following code in the Onclick event:
Private Sub cmdCreateReport_Click() DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryUIRFollowUp", acViewNormal, acEdit DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmOpenUIRLookUp"
As it now stands when I click the button I get the form but none of the selected data is filled in. The fields are blank.
What code to I need to add to the above to make the form hold the data selected from the drop down?
Form 1: I have a combo box on my main menu(MenuMainF) called cboCompanyType with typical values 1,2,3,4,5,etc......
Form 2: I have a command button on my administration menu(MenuAdminF) called cmdDevelopment
My goal is to have the cmdDevelopment button of Form 2 be visible if cboCompanyType on Form 1 is equal to 1,2,3, or 4, but if it is any other value, then cmdDevelopment should be not visible.
I get a bizarre situation while I am using MS Access 2010 to select values with Combo Boxes on a form, i.e.:
* After I select one or more values from the drop-down list of a Combo Box, there is no response when clicking OK button using the mouse. It is stalled. I need to do the process again and then the mouse-click on OK button could work: click anywhere outside of the combo box, re-select the values, click OK Button, and done.
* However, I can always use Enter key (on the keyboard) upon OK button to complete the selection.
* The values in the drop-down list of the Combo Box were entered manually.
What is wrong with the combo boxes on the form? Why do I need to do twice to complete the selection using mouse-click? Why the keyboard-click ('Enter') can be always OK but not for the mouse-click?
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
I have almost completed my database, everything I had originally intended to implement into it has been done, with some extra added features I popped in along the way. There is just one more thing I require assistance with...
My database is used for booking camera kits in and out. On the add booking form the user has to pick a "Camera Type" from a combo box. When they have made their selection, a form pops up with details of all of the components contained within the kits. The user can then check/uncheck the relevant components and close the form.
I have used a command button which prints off the data contained within the current booking form, and also the data contained in the form that pops up when the camera type is selected.
However, as there are more than 1 different types of camera, comprising different components, I need to be able to print off the form relevant to the kit type.
I do not know how I can do this as I have just specified the command button to print the form for the default kit.
I basically need some VB code which will print the form based on my combo selection, as my knowledge of VB is pretty primitive, I was wondering if someone could help me out :)
