I am a beginner and this question might seem stupid, but here it goes...
I want to put a few check boxes on a form...Basically I want to have week 1 to week 10 check boxes to register student's attendance. I would them export data to excel and use pivot table to generate a report. What I could not figure out yet is how to link a check box to a field on a table...
please see attachment. I created a small database to help explain my issue.
When I click on the check box in box 1(train), the text box turns blue...great...and even better the other records stay clear when I scroll down, which is what I want to happen. But when I scroll back up, from dog to train, the blue in the train box has gone- not what I want! I would like the blue to stay in every box that I click on. Any ideas?

I have a main form with 2 check boxes. The title of the first box is Manufacturing and the title of the second check box is Purchased. I have 2 different forms based on the titles of the check boxes. After the user checks one of the boxes, I want the user to click a command button which opens the correct form based on the box checked.
Using the On Click for the command button, I created this code, with no success:
Dim stDocName As String
If Me.Check14 = 1 Then stDocName = "frmManufacture" DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName Else If Me.Check16 = 2 Then stDocName = "frmPurchase" DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName Else stDocName = "frmError" DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName End If
I've been stomping around in the forums for an hour now and I have to ask for some help because I really don't know what it is I am looking for.
I am interested to know if there is a way to write VBA code that reopens my menu form if all other forms have been closed. The database window is hidden in my app and normally when all windows close this will exit Microsoft Access too.
If there's not an easy, established way for this, I'm not really in a spot that requires me to use this, I just wanted to know for future forms.
I guess my real question is how to you build events for the entire database, not just a single form or report?:confused:
I am using my form to add job descriptions and if the user checks the check box for current, it adds the description to the table as the current job description. I need to clear the check box for the next entry but the box retains the choice so when the user selects another description, the form saves it as current even if the box shows no check in the box. I tried the code below, but that only changes the state of the box, but not the reality of the state of the box.
I'm currently making a signup form for a 6day event.
Certain details are taken (Name, Age, Contact no etc).
I also have a registration form; so when someone comes back for the second day of the event I tick the 'saturday' checkbox, or 'monday', or whatever the day is...
When someone comes to sign up for the first time, I'd like the form to automatically check the box for that day (to indicate their attendance). This would save me opening two forms to signup one person, if I make sense.
So, when someone comes to register on a Tuesday, I fill in all their details - and then it automatically checks the 'tuesday' field box.
I'm unsure of the best approach for this. I have 4 check boxes to verify. Only 1 of them can be checked, the others need to be disabled. But the user must check one of them.
I'm trying to create a form to link data. I'll give you an example..I have 25 football teams and 100 players. I want to link 4 to 7 players to each football team. Those players can be repeated in different teams.
I wish to do it with a form where I choose the team first (combobox) and then I select the players in the subform. The point here is that I want to choose the players via a checkbox and I want to see all players in that subform too.
SUBFORM - [Checkbox] [name player 1] - [Checkbox] [name player 2] - [Checkbox] [name player 3] - [Checkbox] [name player 100]
Is it possible to do without programing Access with VB?Do I need to create an intermediate table with the checkbox and then create the subform?
I have a form (MemberDetails) and I want it to check if the member I'm adding has already been added, or at least give me a warning that the member might be a duplicate. I have a FName field and LName field that I would like checked (together). I know it's possible because I've seen it done on the Address Book template, but they have it set up to where the First & Last name are saved as one field in another table.
I have the following vba to check if a table exists, but I can not find on the net how to check if a form exists, I tried to modify this script but there does not seem to be a formdef
Code:
Sub table_Exists() Dim dbs As Database Dim tbl As TableDef Dim dbsExist As Object Dim tablename As String tablename = "Table2" ' Your Table Name Dim exists As String
I've saved a form to an text file to investigate a corrupted form issue. The output text file has below extracted text. I am wondering where I can find the TOP, RIGHT BOTTOM property of the form in design time? I could see some properties such as GridX, GridY, but not sure where are TOP property.

I have a form with datasheet view and I need to make user that user fills in all fields before he moves on to the next row. how to catch the moment of moving to another row?
I am trying to make a checkbox with different graphics since the checkbox can not be resized. I thought I could stack images on top of each other and toggle between showing and hiding based on if the checkbox was checked. This actually works, but I wanted to hide my checkbox, so I hid it behind my images. This didn't work. So I brought it to the front and made it invisible. This didn't work either. What can I do? The checkbox is linked to the table, but I want the graphics to show thumbs up or down and not see the checkbox.
I have a check box on a form,that when ticked ,Iwant it to lock that check box (basically i dont want that info altered after this time) I know its something to do with the property but cant get it to lock the check box).
I have a continuous form in my database that depending on the criteria used will display any number of records. Each record has a check box so the user can select a record for printing. Quite often the user wants to select all of the checkboxes.
Is there a way to do that in vba off of a command button.
I have a form with a number of fields and sections which change visibility based on the data entered in other fields,
The fields have an "on update" event to check the content of the field and make the appropriate changes,
I've changed this form to be able to edit records instead of "Data Entry" so now I need the checks to occur when the record changes as well as when data is entered,
How best can I achieve this without simply duplicating the code (which seems like a bad idea) into the "On Current" event?
I have a form open, but want to print only specific fields in each record. Been trying lots of filtering methods to no avail as I am a novice at filtering.
I can filter records, but cant figure out how to filter specific fields from those records.
My project goes something like this:
Each record in my form consists of listed items like on an invoice. However, not all the items on any given invoice will be printed. Therefore, I set up checkboxes beside each line, so for each invoice, I only tick the items I want to be printed from that invoice. However, I just cannot yet find a way to print the selected items.
I need to pass values of my two check boxes on my Form
Check box US and Check Box Canada if both checked the criteria would be "UD", "ud',"b","B","us","US","CD","cd" if Canada check box checked criteria would be "cd","CD" if US only checked criteria would be UD", "ud',"b","B","us","US"
how to write the criteria statement on the query?this probably would be a complicated iff statement?
On a form I am making, I have two combo boxes. Box 1 has "Title" and Box 2 has "Full Name". In the table associated with FullName, there is a Check Box name "Still Attached".
What I am trying to do when choosing a "Title" in Combo Box 1, I would like only the people with that "Title" and a check in "Still Attached" to be available in the drop down list.
I have tried and I can get combo 2 to filter by title, but not by the "Still Attached" value.
I have a Paycheck form with a subform on it. The goal is to not have to click on the check field for every paycheck, instead use a Batch procedure. When you click in the subform (field) (CCheckNo) which gets the focus by default it advances to the next check number and performs other code operations. If you have a lot of checks this is not very user friendly. I created a command button on the subform to try and auto ate this process. Below is the code for this. It gives no errors but does nothing. The db is very complex. The form opens to the first record but can't be sure when the user could run the Batch procedure.
The idea was to try and use the OnClick procedure to run the event code. The field in question is CCheckNo which advances the check number.
frmBonusReimbursementChecks is the Main form. (Check) form is a Subform CCheckNo field gets focus on Load which is the Subform.
Code Below is on a Command Button on the Subform.
If MsgBox("Are you sure you want to Assign All Checks?", vbYesNo, "All Checks Confirmation") = vbYes Then End If If IsNull(Me.CCheckDate) Then 'If no Check Date, Assign One. Me.CCheckDate = Date End If If IsNull(Me.[CCheckNo]) Then 'Advance to the next available Check Number. Me.CCheckNo = Next_Custom_Counter
I tried to check if all required fields have been filled before saving the record using the following code.
Private Sub txtReportNo_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) If IsNull(Me.cboMainCat) Then Cancel = True MsgBox ("Please enter Data for Main Cat") Me.cboMainCat.SetFocus End If Repeat above code for all required controls here. End Sub
It did not work with following error code.
Run-time error 2108
You must save the field before you execute the GoToControl action, the GoToControl method, or the SetFocus method.
The error message contradicts my original intention that prevents from saving without all required fields have been filled. Is there any way to get rid of this error message?
In addition, under the value of certain field, I need to check additional fields under that scenario. Is any additional code required to add in for that purpose?
I am a website administrator and don't want to send back a verification email as people register on my website. So, I am wondering whether there is a way for me to check the validity of their registered email addresses. How can I easily check whether an email address is valid or exists?
