I have a report with an if then statement for a checkbox.
If checkbox is true...etc versus if checkbox is false...etc
When there isn't a record that has this checkbox checked, I get the error
"You entered an expression that has no value." (Runtime error 2427) How can I ignore this error
when the record doesn't apply to the criteria?
I'm using the following code (from GHudson) to check for required fields being filled in but it stops at a particular combo box and gives the error message Runtime error 2110 "can't move the focus to the control" although it works on previous combos which are set up in the same way.
Private Sub Close_Click()
'Key "Required" in the Tag property of the form object.
Dim ctl As Control
For Each ctl In Me
If ctl.tag = "Required" Then
If IsNull(ctl) Or ctl = "" Then
MsgBox "You must complete all required fields to continue. Your cursor wll now be set to the missed field", vbCritical, "Required Field"
ctl.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
End If
Next
Set ctl = Nothing
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdClose
'If MsgBox("Have you selected the record type and filled in the other yellow fields? These are mandatory. If you haven't - click on 'No' to return to form", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Open Form?") = vbYes Then
'DoCmd.SetWarnings False
'DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdClose
'DoCmd.SetWarnings True
'End If
End Sub
When I try to do a spell check in a Form by pressing F7 I receive this error:
Can't start the spelling checker because it isn't installed.
How do I get it installed?
Thanks!
I have a form - see attached image.
The first text box is called Job_No. When a number is entered here how can I check that the number doesn't already exist when the user tabs to the next box. Then if it does exist display a custom message to the effect "This already exists" and not the Access default duplicate error message.
Thanks

Hello,
I have written an extensive Access DB Application for my company and have placed it on a cd for distribution. When we try to copy it from the CD to a folder on another machine the above mentioned error comes up. Any Suggestions. Jeff
Other than a check box, is there any way to check if a user has printed a report when they open it to view and give them a reminder on close?
Thanks

I have create a report which contains a check box. What I want to do is to hide the box if it null. I have attached an example database to show what I'm trying to do. I have tried using:
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
If IsNull(Me.[Written Work Seen1]) Then Me.[Written Work Seen1].Visible = False
If IsNull(Me.[Written Work Seen2]) Then Me.[Written Work Seen2].Visible = True
End Sub
in the OnFormat event of the Details section of the report.
I'm trying to figure out how to filter a report using a check box.
I have created a form, which if you push an industry labled button on that form it will show you the report with what work was done for that industry.
Now I'm trying to modify it so that I have a group of check boxes; each check box being a different office location the company has.
What I want to make happen is if say out of office A. B. C. and D., A. and D. are checked and I hit the button of a specific industry it will bring me up a report of office A. and D. Combined for that industry.
From what I've figured I can create a bunch of reports of all the different possiblities and link those to that senerio, but that seems tedious and ridiculous.
Is there a way I can code VBA to do this for me? Or am I going to have to go through the proccess of creating a bunch of different querries and reports beyond what I have now to pull up an industry.
I have a check box in a form (set to yes/no in the table) and when I generate a report I would like the check box value to show up as yes or no in text box, but I can't seem to figure it out.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have some code that will run if I am populating an empty table(no duplication's possible) but now I am trying to create a Sub to check for existence of a record and handling it going forward.
Anyways the big picture is looping through a text file and placing data where it needs to go. The code follows including some comments point to the issue.
Code:
Sub PutinNewTag(TableIn As String, Tagtype As String, textline As String)
Dim strSQL As String
Dim NameIn As String
Dim TagName As String
Dim Db As DAO.Database
Dim rstin As DAO.Recordset

Error: Error evaluating check constraint in the validation rule
What does this mean?
I have used a combo box in the table to input into 2 fields - one restricted to numbers 1 to 5 and the other restricted to letters A to E
Message comes up when I try to change the view or press submit. Does it have anything to do with the field type?
I would like to convert a text string to integer.
Lots of posts say to use val, but it is not listed in access 2010
So I am trying,
Creating a field that is numeric then just referring to the string field.
This works good except where it finds actual text. It puts the value "#Type!" in there.
Would there be some kind of function to check for an error or check if the value is text.
Good Day!
I have a simple table where the user enter expiry date for visa. User also enter return date of visa holder.
I am looking for a way whereby, every time I start my database a report is automatically sent if Visa Expiry daye is close to departure date.
I already have the query and the report based on it, but how to have this checked and sent?
This is in my query
VISA_CHECK: IIf([Visa_LOI_end_date]-[Return Date]<7,'Fail','Pass')
If it fails this should trigger the report being sent.
I hope I have been clear and that someone can help.
Thank you in Advance

I have a report that has a nummer of check boxes, I want to count the number of boxes that are true.
Example:
I have 10 boxes on my report and only three of them are True.
I have put in the bottom of the report
=Count([checkbox])
But this seems to count all boxes
Please help
Cheers

On design, layout and report view, everything looks exactly how I want it. However, when I display it in Print Preview mode, checkboxes appear about the Project Name.There's nothing in my report to show that I have these checkboxes on the report. Where these could be coming from and why they only show in the Print Preview layout?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to modify one report as "I have 3check boxes, when I select one then others should disable and the report I selected should be generate"
So I have to create additional check box. What is the code to create & generate the report by seleted check box.
I have a query that gives field values like name, age, department, etc for all the staff members in our company. These fields are obtained from many other tables and queries. Now I am planning to generate a report, which would display the results of this query. The catch is I am trying to do it in such a way that I want the user to have the option to select for which staff members he wants to run the report. Example: if I have 10 staff members, the user should be able to select staff3, staff6, staff7 and run the report such that it displays all the field values from the query related ONLY to these 3 staff members.
I could put up some labels and checkboxes for each staff on the form, and then select some checkboxes and get the report to read which checkbox is selected, and then display the concerned results through the report.
On my switchboard form, I have a check box which the user can check to make a text box (which appears in several different reports) visible and uncheck to make it invisible. The text box in the reports has the same name on all of them.
I am having trouble making this work.
I can think of two solutions, but haven't had success with either yet.
1. I could simply change the visible property of the report(s) control from the form. This works if the report is open, but throws an error if the report is not open.
Code:Public Sub showNumOrgsInReportCB_AfterUpdate()If Me!showNumOrgsInReportCB.Value = 0 ThenReports![publishZipR]![numOrgsF].Visible = FalseElseReports![publishZipR]![numOrgsF].Visible = TrueEnd IfEnd Sub
Is there a property or function I can use to test whether the report is open before I set the text box visibility?
2. Alternatively, a less elegant solution would be to run an event procedure to close all open reports. This would eliminate that issue, but I haven't gotten the code to work yet:
Code:Public Sub showNumOrgsInReportCB_AfterUpdate() Dim rpt As Report ' Enumerate Reports collection.For Each rpt In ReportsDoCmd.Close rpt.nameNext rptEnd Sub
This line:
DoCmd.Close rpt.name
throws a Run-time Error '13', Type mismatch.
How do I fix that?
I'm open to better ideas!
Thanks
I have created a report with the report wizard in Access 2007 that includes a check box. The check box is located under the label but to the far left side. How can I center the check box under the label?

I have a database that keeps track of street light inspections.
There is a form with inspection info and a subform with any faults found - Works Fine
There is a report with the same information - Works Fine'ish
The report allways used to work fine but for no apparent reason it previews fine but when printing I get the following message and the subreport information does not print (although if I open the sub report seperately it prints fine).
'This expression is typed incorrectly, or it is too complex to be evaluated. For example, a numeric expression may contain too many complicated elements. Try simplifying the expression by assigning parts of the expression to variables.'
I am banging my head against the wall with this one. It used to print fine and I have made no changes, apart from data. Have tried compact/repair to no avail.
Could someone please point me in the right direction, my head is hurting...
I am making a payment data base and table structure is like this:
ProjectNo
OrderNo
OrderDate
InvoiceNo
InvoiceDate
InvoiceAmount
ChequeNo
ChequeDate
ChequeAmount
1st thing is to be done is data input till Invoice Amount and then on due dates payments are released thru cheques. Sometimes payments are not one to one, means there can be 3 part payments for one invoice. So when we take the balance payment due, we get errror. Report shows total invoice amount 3 times, because details have three fields. Means like this:
Overall Supplier Invoice Payment Status For The Supplier Name - True Fab Engineers Private
Limited
InvoiceNoDateAmountPaymentDateChequeNoChequeDateChequeAmou
Supplier NameTrue Fab Engineers Private Limited
ORDER NO. P-158/B/10848 DATED 12-Apr-07

TOTAL PAYMENT DUE:13,736.00TOTAL PAYMENT MADE:6,868.00
You can see that total amount due is just double of actual. Beacuase of this all accounting is going waste.
Please help. Thanks in advance.
Hi all,
Using Access 97 :( to create a fairly simple database for a couple of users.
When setting up a report using the wizard, I am given an error message of "No Current record" when I try and Finish the wizard.
I have re-installed Access 97 - which I thought would have most definatly fixed the problem - but doesn't seem to have done the trick.
Any thought are welcome?
Thanks, Neil
Just a quick one.
I'm not usre how to handle the error when cancelling a report. so when I hit a control to bring up a report and say I cancel it before I put in any parameters for example I get the dialog box " runtime error" "OpenReport action was cancelled" etc.
Could anyone help me on how to handle this with VBA so that it's at least a more user friendly dialog box?
thanks
I want to create a report using the data currently held in a form. I found this bit of code somewhere:
DoCmd.OpenReport "report", acViewPreview, , "[job number] = " & txtFilter.Value
txtFilter is the name of textbox containing the data I want for the report. This works if in the table for txtFilter's data the field is set to a number. But if I set this field to text it comes up with a data type mismatch error. How do I solve this? (sorry new to access and vba). The reason I want to set it as a text field is so that I can limit the number of characters entered.
Thanks
Chris
