We are working on an access data base where we had initially set the information in a check box i.e. showing whether the machine had a particular part or not. I now want to change this to an option box - but having problems.
View RepliesHi
I've got an Option Group with 3 options; Yes, No and Future.
I also have a range of Check Boxes; 1 for every day of the week.
When one of the check boxes is selected I want the Option Group to change to Yes.
Currently, the Option Group defaults to Future and No will only be available by manually selecting it. This doesn't need to be changed.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Cheers
Hi,
I need an help on my DB.
I have a form with some comboboxes and checkboxes inside an option group, which is a value of a table.
The table is named TB_ALLEGATI and the field inside this table is named TIPO_CANALE (this also the option group name).
the checkbox inside the option group are named SMS, MMS and VOICE with value as 1, 2 and 3.
I want to save the value checked by the user and store it in the table TB_ALLEGATI, but the problem is that i'm able to save only 1,2 or 3 and not the value name that are SMS, MMS and VOICE.
Have you a suggestion on how to perform this action?
Have you any code example?
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Antonio.
Hi there,
I inserted an option group with 3 checkboxes (Yes, No, Re-open). My problem is that I see the values of these checkboxes (1=yes, 2=no, 3=re-open) in my table. I want to see just text and no number. How's that possible ?
Thanks

How can I indicate with a color change in the label, that a checkbox is checked? I've got it working ...sort of. but when the change occurs it's happening gobally - I want the label to color to apply only to the record I'm viewing. If the check box is checked then the color should be red, otherwise black.
My code is as follows:
Active_Admission.Value = -1 Then
Label1177.ForeColor = vbRed
ElseIf Active_Admission.Value = 0 Then
Labe1177.ForeColor = vbBlack
Exit_Sub_Active_Admission_click:
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
Also, the condition only works with -1 and 0 - I've read in other places that the condition is 1 and 0. HELP!

I have a form with one checkbox on at the moment. Depending on whether it is checked or not I want to choose to display or not display a field on a form.
I have the following code below but whether the checkbox is ticked or not it doesn't affect the report.
If Check4 = True Then
[Report_Temp].Medium.Visible = False
DoCmd.OpenReport "Temp", acViewPreview, , MyFilter
What have I missed?
Sorry if this is an easy one and I just missing it, but I have a form in an Access2003 database with option groups for ratings for 18 individual tasks ie:
Safety: 1. Satisfactory 2. Marginal 3. Unsatisfactory 4. N/A
The value stored in the table is 1,2,3, or 4 for each one, obviously.
How can I change the stored value in the table to "Sat" "Marginal" "Unsat" etc?
Or, if easier, make the report convert the numerical values to names?
I was wondering if anyone can help.
Please see attached jpg
I need to change the background color of the lead status box when one of the options is selected. i.e. when warm (amber) when Hot (red)
Can anyone help please?
I've created a form using the form wizard and all of the fields show up as combo boxes. I would like to change a couple of them to option groups with radio buttons. Is there anyway to do this without deleting the fields and making the option boxes from scratch? The reason I ask is because when I do the option boxes from scratch with the wizard, it alters the way the information shows up in the datasheet (it's a split form).
View 2 Replies View RelatedI’m really stuck on how to create: Check Boxes/Option button/Option Group in VBA.
Could someone help on either all of them or some of them please?

I am using an Access database for a foreign language dictionary project.
One of the forms I use is populated by a query (qryLemmaTable) to retrieve information from tblLEMMA.
This form works precisely as I intend it to work, but there is a glitch on it that is driving me mad.
The form in question has an option group with 11 radio buttons that correspond to the parts of speech associated with each word in tblLEMMA.
When I click on the button optAdjective I apply a filter and the only records that are displayed are adjectives. (The same applies for Nouns, Verbs, Prepositions etc.)
Here is the glitch: even though the radio buttons apply the filter correctly, no “black spot” appears in the button. Other signals on the screen let me know what word type is selected, so I can accomplish what I want, but I want the “black spots” too!
Perhaps this will be a clue: For each radio button I use the following code in the GotFocus event.
Me.FilterOn = False
Me.Filter = "wordtype = 'A'" ‘(or N, etc)
Me.FilterOn = True
And this for the Lost Focus event
Me.FilterOn = False
Thanks for the help.
I stumbled upon the Option Group function just yesterday and, happy as a clam, I created a group with 2 options in radio button style. I assigned the values to a field called Registration_Type as the 2 options are "Confirmed Registrants" and "Prospective Attendees".
[Great. That part works well. When I look at the table, a 1 or a 2 is in that field so it's great to know how to control accidental ticking of radio buttons (previous 450 records or so didn't have this option group functionality so one might easily tick one of the buttons. So one part of controlling option group I know I can handle via the table itself for now.]
The challenge is how to ensure the user always ticks one or the other ... I went back to the main table and tested the 'required entry' option for the Registration_Type field but forcing an action like this is not ideal in my mind. The usual error message vagueness for the average user is no good and I don't want to limit the user so much.
Is there a way to simply have a popup come up warning that neither radio button was ticked? Perhaps something linked to the form - i.e., maybe "after update"?? I only learned about attaching code to before and after update on controls a couple of days ago, so not sure if this would be best approach.
Just something to let the user know that nothing has been ticked in the option group as that controls in which of 2 reports the data will show up in so any record not ticked might mean a registrant being left out, which would be rather disastrous <g>.

Hi to all

can this be done?
Please help and thanks a lot.
Hello all,
How do I write a QBF query such that when a check box on the form is clicked, the name of query runs based on the name of that checkbox.
I have a form called, QBF_Form, which has a series of checkboxes. Each checkbox has a name. I have a table, "Type", and I would like to run a query based on the information on the form, ie. when I click a check box, the query gets the name of the check box and runs the information based on that.I know the basic qbf is:
[Type] Like [Forms]![QBF_Form]![Type] & "*" Or [Forms]![QBF_Form]![Type] Is Null
But I don't know how this would work if I have a check box for values in field "Type" in my table.
Thanks for your help!
Iwant to suppress the message "The macro or function set to the Beforeupdate or ValidationRule property for this field is preventing Microsoft Access from saving the data in the field".
The message is correct-Iwant to prevent updating the checkbox if certain conditions aren't met.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Hi,
I do NOT want to create one field for check mark in the table. I just want to make temporary checkbox to select the record in the continuous form.
But, When I put a check mark on one record, the check marks are shown on all records in the continuous form.

I installed Microsoft Office 2003 on my computer. It asks me to register the product otherwise not all functions will work properly. I was curious so I didn't register it and started an Ms Access Application. Interestingly, when I clicked on a checkbox in a form , nothing happened.
After registering the product and going back in to the mdb the checkbox worked just fine.
Any one ever seen this before or know what causes that?
Thanks
I want to make sure that only one check box can be checked and also to make sure that on is selected, i.e. to display a warning that one is not check if someone is going to save the record. Any ideas guys?

hey all, i have a supplier table (Supplier), that has a yes/no check box column field depending if they are active or not. About 200 suppliers in all, many of which not active.
I want to be able to automatically set the active field to True within the supplier table depending on the condition that records exist in my delivery schedule table (Schedule)
SO for instance if a supplier name "Power" exist in my delivery schedule, then i want supplier "Power" in the supplier table to be checked i.e True. I guess some form of dlookup is needed here, but not im not sure where to start. Any help appreciated!

I have created a query which search all fields in my database from one text box. Is it possible to search only records which have checkboxes ticked by ticking a checkbox on the search form/in the query.
Thanks in advance
I have a standard Select query with various fields, three of which are:
- Quantity Ordered (number)
- Quantity Delivered (number)
- Short Delivery (checkbox)
Basically I want the check box to be checked if the qty ordered value is greater than the qty delivered.
I have this code in the criteria of the Short Delivery Field and it does not work
IIf([1A-Quantity Ordered]>[1B-Quantity Received],1,0)
Can anyone give me any pointers, also should I be using an Append or Update query?
Hi, Im trying to build query that filters my recors by checkbox value in form.
I have field id_reason with numeric values, my idea is that when checkbox1 = 1, id_reason is filtred by value 11, when checkbox1 = 0, id_reason <> 11.
i tryed this formula as criteria in design grid:
IIf([forms]![form1]![check1]=1;[id_reason]=11;[id_reason]<>11)
but IIF is not operator, so it doesnt work...
Can anyone help with this one? :cool:
tnx
Greetings to everyone,
I've been looking through the forum for this, but I've only found how to add/count checkboxes in queries, and how to make a query based on checkboxes...what I need is to add a checkbox to every result on a query, I need this in order to add the ticked items to a record table, this is, the ticked items are accomplished tasks and therefore need to be registered (in the table) and the unticked tasks weren't accomplished and therefore shouldn't be added to the registry (table). Can anyone tell me just how to add the checkbox to the query?
I would thank any help on this.
