Changing Listbox Column Head Titles?
Mar 23, 2006
Hi there
I have a listbox and all is well - the only problem is that the column heads are a little 'ugly' - my column names are usually something like 'catagoryName', 'productType' and 'price' instead of looking pretty, like 'Catagory Name' and 'Product Type' and 'Price' respectively.
Is there any way to edit/format the title/column heads without having to change all the tables and queries etc, so they look a littler prettier?
Many thanks
Edd

Hi, I would like to change the properties of either the column heads in a combo-box or the column names for tables. I don't think there's any way to adjust the column head properties, and I'm doubtful there's a way to change the column caption properties.
Some of my column titles are long, and I'd like to be able to word wrap them essentially. Anyone know if this is possible? Thanks.

Hi,
I have a listbox from where i can make selections and generate a report for the selected values , the problem is the selections are limited to 28 selections, if i try to select even one more after that i get an error:
" Run time error '7769' "
" The filter operation was cancelled. The filter would be too long."
Now is there anyway to make this limited selection changed to a higher value or unlimited??? so i can select as much choices as i can , even all of them if i want? Does anyone have an idea , i looked throught the properties of the listbox but no help.
thankx,
solig

I have a subfom that displays perfectly in datsheet view.
One of the columns changes its contents depending on a value. i.e. a list of units or a list of costs. I change the data using a Recordset update.
When in the Main Form I am trying to change the column label that appears in the SubForm header above the column, to either 'Units' or 'Cost, to match the data.
I am strugging to find the correct syntax, can anyone help?
Also, can I change this via the Recordset update?
Thanks :confused:

I have a listbox which is populated by a query from a table.
I also have a sub which allows users to quickly select multiple items from the listbox (based on a pre-defined criteria) rather than scrolling through and selecting them manually / individually
The sub works fine but when it is finished, the listbox is automatically scrolled to the bottom (or, rather, to the last selected item)
I would like to have the listbox scroll back to the very top once all of the appropriate items have been selected.
(I could loop through the listbox items in reverse - or 'bottom-up' - in the code but that would only have the desired effect if the topmost item was selected. I want it scrolled to the top regardless of whether the topmost item is selected or not).

I'm still a little new to this, so please bear with me. I've searched to no avail for what I am looking for, so if there is an existing thread and you would rather point me in it's direction as opposed to answering my question, that would be fine.
I want one of the parameters of my delete query to be only the first column of my "ProdList" listbox, but don't know how to specify this. This is what my query looks like so far... Can someone tell me how do i need to change it?
DELETE ProductionLog.Username, ProductionLog.Date, ProductionLog.OrderNumber
FROM ProductionLog
WHERE (((ProductionLog.Username)=fOSUserName()) AND ((ProductionLog.Date)=[Forms]![Production]![TheDate]) AND ((ProductionLog.OrderNumber)=[Forms]![Production]![ProdList]));

I have a crosstab query that reports KPI numbers for the last 5 weeks, using the week no as the column header. Then I am generating a report from this query. It works 100%
However, when I go to the next week, the report fails as the first week from the previous query no longer exists
So, this is happening...
The first report generated columns called 39,40,41,42,43 because the crosstab query uses week number as the header.
The second report (1 week later) cant find column 39 so it crashes!
Can't see how to change the column header to a generic as it is created by the crosstab.....

I have a list box and a series of 11 fields a user can search by. My problem is that the List Box has changed the column order.
Example: In the design wizard of the list box I had it such that the columns were in order 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
Now after I hit search the fields populate out of order... 4, 9, 2, 1, etc...

hello all,
I was wondering whether there is an "easy" way to make the column widths of a list box to adjust to the largest peice of data under it.... without filling it in yourself in the design view... So in VB....
I know that there is the property COLUMNWIDTHS, and that you can adjust it by calling that property..
But how to make it the column width to adjust automatically to the largest piece of text in that column??
Any ideas would be welcome...
tnx

I have a list box with 3 columns and one line on my form and am writing an update query that is to use the value from the first column of the query to update a record in a table. I have referenced the list box as ListBox.Column(0) but the code displays a value of null when I run it and the record that is to be updated is updated to Null (it is blank). How do I write the code so that the value that is in column 0 of this list box is passed through the code?

Currently I have a calculated field in my table; however, under certain circumstances I need to change the value to another value which is not related to the calculation. I understand that the calculated fields are read only (why is that?), so I was wondering if there was any way to change values within a calculated column without actually changing the expression itself.

Hi
I've created a listbox and am using the following code
stWhat1 = "": stCriteria1 = ","
For Each vItm1 In Me!LstArchive.ItemsSelected
stWhat1 = stWhat1 & Me![LstArchive].Column(0, vItm1)
stWhat1 = stWhat1 & stCriteria1
Next vItm1
Me!txtCriteria1 = CStr(Left$(stWhat1, Len(stWhat1) - Len(stCriteria1)))
The problem is that my bound column is a text field. I'm really struggling on where to put my quotations so that I get the following with the In function
In('00638','00639').
Any help or pointing in right direction would be very much appreciated

In short, I have a form that has a combo box containing people type values. Then two text entry boxes, firstname, lastname. Then an add, update, and delete button...
When the person type is chosen from the cbo, and the names are filled out, and the 'add' button pressed a query sends the values back via sql insert, and a listbox next to these controls then lists the new person records. Great - No worries...
Then, when someone wants to update the record now shown in the listbox, on double click of the record in the listbox, vba repopulates the name text boxes from the listbox's columns values (easy), and then *magically* the person type combo box chooses amongst its values the value stored in the person type column from the listbox.
I can't get the combo box to be set to the value that I am grabbing from the listbox's column values.
Code:
cboContactInfoType.{magic happens here} = ListBoxOfficeContactInfo.Column(3)
txtContactInfoValue = ListBoxOfficeContactInfo.Column(4)
txtContactInfoValue2 = ListBoxOfficeContactInfo.Column(5)
Part of me wonders if I would have to program in a way to search among the combo boxes values and find out which one was selected from the listbox, find it's index value and then set the combo box to be that index/value record... but that seems like a hard way to do it... and I'm not exactly sure how?

This is the function i'm using for summing a listbox column:
Function TonSum() As Variant
Dim I As Integer, J As Integer, ctl As Control
Set ctl = Me.lstDrivera2
J = ctl.ListCount - 1
[code]...
The problem i have is if one the records in the listbox doesn't have a value (is null) then Access gives me a 'Type Mismatch' error. How to treat the null value so it excludes it from the sum?

i have a subform on a form with Source Object="Query.myquery", my form is generating a sql string dynamically and assigning this sql string to the RecordSource property which works fine. But now if the user changes the width of the columns in the subform and close the form , a prompt is thrown asking if the "myquery" needs to be saved. I dont want to save the settings of "myquery" but at the same time avoid this modal dialog. If i use DoCmd.SetWarnings=False , i dont see the warning anymore BUT the query gets saved.
I am using "myquery" to just display column names in the subform when the forms loads and also without it i cant directly use RecordSource property in my code.
any suggestions?

Hi Everyone,
I hope I'm posting in the right place, I've been trying to solve my problem using queries so I thought it might be appropriate here.
I have a database for a health care service which contains among others the following four tables...
Table 1 contains client details, primary key [ClientID] plus other client details.
Table 2 contains Episode of care details, primary key [EpisodeofcareID], [episodeofcareDate] etc...
Table 3 contains all test results for assessment 1, primary key [CoreID], [CoreDate] plus numerous scores for individual tests.
Table 4 contains all test results for assessment 2, primary key [HonosID], [HonosDate] plus numerous scores for individual tests.
Table 1 is linked to Table 2, and Table 2 is linked to both Table 3 & 4.
I have set up a search procedure whereby the user enters a clients name which then opens a list box of all clients with that name. When the client selects from the listbox I want a second listbox to open which has three visible columns. One giving the date of each episode of care for the client, the second giving the date of each assessment completed and the third giving the name of the assessment carried out.
I'm managing to get the date of the Episode of Care to display on the first visible column but I'm getting stuck on the next two. This would seem to involve somehow combining data from different tables into individual columns on the listbox. For example I need the second visible column on this listbox to list all the dates of assessments for the chosen client from tables 3 & 4. (e.g. [CoreDate] and [HonosDate]). Column three would then give the title of the assessment next to the date in column two. None of the tables have a field listing titles as this is determined by which table the data is entered into. I've been trying to solve this by queries without much success.
Could anyone give some ideas as to how I could solve these problems?
Many Thanks
John
