I have a form that users type in a part number and a due date. I then run a
report that prints the part number, the components needed and the processes
needed. For example:
------User Form-------
Part 1 6/25/05
Part 2 6/28/05
Part 3 7/1/05
---------Report--------
Part 1 6/25/05
Component 1--------SAW-----WELD------SMOOTH
Component 2--------WELD-----PAINT
-------------------------------------------------------------
Part 2 6/28/05
Component 1--------DRILL-------WELD
Component 2--------SMOOTH-----PAINT
-------------------------------------------------------------
Part 3 7/1/05
I'm confused about how to go about this. I don't want the users to have to
manually type in anything. I want the components and processes to show up
when they type in the part number. I want the user to be able to check off
processes as they go, but I want all the processes to show up when they type
a new part in the form. I would appreciate it if someone would point me in
the right direction.
I just want to know how to manage items in set and individual item. Suppose my product list are
individual items = A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K and 5 pc set = A,B,C,D,F and 3 pc set = G,H,K
How should I design the table. Previously I designed the table for individual items and whenever orders for set is placed user had to enter individual items with quantity.
E.g. order is for 5 pc set = 3000
A=3000 B=3000 C=3000 D=3000 F=3000
Now I need to just say 5 pc set and it should be automatically populated. And also if order have combination of individual and set items.
I would like passing values from first form until third form.
In the first form I have a list box after selecting items (For each selected item in first form I have 4 values) and pressing button (or right click of mouse) the second form will be open, then in the second form I have 2 option (inserting, deleting), when I select inserting or deleting in the second form, third form will be open, in the third form there is a "OK" button, when I press that, passed values from first form will be used for inserting or deleting records to the table.
why do ALL form items disappear if certain records are not there? my mainform is fed by a people Qry and the people have payments however, if you delete the payments, all of the items on the mainform disappear. if i go into the table and manually add a payment, everything re-appears. the mainform is exclusive to "peopleQry" and there are 2 subforms which show different data at different times. when the form loads, these subforms have a sourceobject set to "" so it couldnt be them. the mainform doesnt display any payment information unless asked and then, it is shown on a different form. this is a bit of a problem now.
Suppose you have 10 fields on a certain spot in a form. And you want to place these ten controls, say command buttons) to line up under each other with an even spacing of about 0.2...Up to now, for a whole lot of controls, I've been selecting them one by one (or "line" by "line"), and manually entering the correct numbers in the left and top property setting fields so they line up the way I want them to. In the beginning I've tried selecting multiple controls at once and then using align but this actually never does what I want it to do.Do you guys and gals know something I don't concerning this which could make life easier?
I am trying to count the number of certain items on a form. I have the formula =count([field]) which gives all entries for that field. How can I separate out certain criteria such as count only items that have the number 1 in this field?
I have created a form with a 2 column list box. This is populated using vba but when I open the form in form view I cannot seem to select any of the items.
I have a form with a combo box named 'Venue'. The combo box values comes from a Table with a list of about 200 countries. As of now a user is able to select only one country. However, I want users to be able to select more than one country.
I have an Orders form (frm-Orders) that includes a subform (frm-Order Details Subform). The subform has line item totals.I want to be able to sum the line item totals and show the result on the main form, but I can't get it to work. Seems like it should be an easy thing to do.
Someone suggested I try this but it didn't work:
In the footer of the subform I created this expression - =SUM([Line Item Total].
Then in the main form I created a textbox with this -- =[Forms]![frm.Orders].[Form]![frm-Order Details Subform].[Form]![txtSum].
I have a bound form which shows list of items in the stock. When i click on a button it should open another form which shows the details of item which we choose from the first form.the code which i have in click event of the form is :
Code: Dim strCrit As String strCrit = "PkID=" & Me.RadStocks DoCmd.OpenForm "frmIssueRadItems", , , strCrit
It works sometimes but most of the time it gives error saying " syntax error(missing operator) in query expression 'PkID=Airmux 200E DC".
I want a good describe about how to create database for supermarket specially how to build a form for selling item, what is a structure of tables ........
I have a list box on an unbound main form, which contains a rowsource consisting of files in a certain folder. The listbox is unbound
when I change an item in a subform, the listbox should update to show different items from the same folder.
Now it is updating correctly, so the rowsource appears to be correct, , but then the listbox behaves strangely - with the first item being sort of permanently selected - or at any rate - strange selection behaviour
out of interest, changed it to a combo box and it works correctly. so there must be some difference between the two?
After investigation, it might be this : [URL] ....
The appearance is similar to what is described in the thread.
although I have played with the strings to get them shorter without getting it work correctly. very strange
if I run the code to update the listbox from the subform, either directly, or by running as sub IN the main form, it produces this strange behaviour. If I run exactly the same code directly IN the main form, it seems to work properly.
trying to enable database users to filter records based on column names which i have in a combobox. They enter the required value in a textbox and click the "Find" button.The code (linked to button click event) is not throwing any errors but the records are not being filtered.
I have a report that generates 100 items in alphabetical order. All of the items are also displayed in a table. I have a bound form attached to the that table, and when the items appear they are not in alphabetical order. Therefore, it is a hassle typing in the data when the form will not appear in order, because instead of going in order I am flipping through pages. What is causing this to happen? And what can I do to fix this?
I have the below code behind a form so that a combo box will display a specific list of items based on the data in another combo box on my form.
I have two copies of this same form for two different departments. One of the forms works like a dream. However, when I copy that form, change the name, and update the code as pictured below, the form is asking for a parameter FROM MY ORIGINAL FORM and will not requery the combo box. I can't figure out why...there is no reference to the original form in my VBA as you can see below. I tried deleting the form and re-creating it, I tried deleting the code and re-typing it to no avail.
Private Sub cmboType_AfterUpdate() Me.cmboAction.RowSource = "SELECT tblStatusList.Status FROM tblStatusList WHERE (((tblStatusList.Department)=[forms]![frmInquiryFraud]![cmboType]));" End Sub
I have been trying to modify a sample database to suit what I want to do but I am getting stuck on the very first part cascading combo boxes i want to open a form and add multiple items to a table - first i want to select, from a combo box a department - then select a supplier from all the suppliers/manufacturers related to that department then select a stock item based on the description from all the items available from that supplier
I have attached the database I am using to modify and my database.
I have this database with the purpose to storage all the tasks that are done in my team. I have a table named Tasks with all their fields. Now, I would like to set a more user friendly way for clients to update this table. I have created another table with a list of most common tasks, so when a client wants to add their tasks list they can choose one of this tasks and add it to the list. I had created a form with multiple items that contains the common tasks and next to each task a button that adds the information they choose into the table "Tasks". This works just fine. However, I would like to add a single button at the top to add all the tasks instead of having to choose one after one.
The "Add All tasks" button has this code:
Private Sub Command79_Click() Dim valSelect As Variant, MyDB As DAO.Database, MyRS As DAO.Recordset Set MyDB = CurrentDb() Set MyRS = MyDB.OpenRecordset("Tasks", dbOpenDynaset)
I have several comboboxes in my database from which users select values. However, in most cases, I do want to give them the option to add an item that does not appear while simultaneously updating the underlying table which stores those dropdown values. I have made use of the builtin "allow edit list items" feature of Access 2007 but the form always opens on the first record of the form on which they are to add the new item. Is there a way to specify that it should open in Data Entry view apart from using VBA?
I wish to change the backcolor of a field on a current record being dispalyed in a 'multiple items' form. However when using me.A.backcolor = makes refrence to all fields called A on the 'multiple items' form and therefore all fields change colour not just the current record.
I have a main form (Parent) along with a subform(Children). I want to have a button that generates a report with the Parent information as a header and the items in the subform as details. In addition, I want the report to show only the children that were recently added not all of the children.
Hi, sorry but i have a new issue. Ok, here it goes.
I have a check box on my form that "black lists" that related record. I wish to warn the user that when they click/after update the check box, they will no longer be able to work with this contact unless an administrator unblocks the record.
Here is the VBA for what i have done so far.
Private Sub orgMisc_AfterUpdate() Dim intAnswer As Integer intAnswer = MsgBox("Are you sure you wish to Black List this contact?" _ , vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Time Saver") If intAnswer = vbYes Then orgMisc = True Else orgMisc = False End If End Sub
This works fine except for 1 problem. It prompts me if i change my mind and uncheck the check box. So basically, if (default) is False Then OnClick i want the above VBA to execute. If the check box already isset to TRUE then ignore the above VBA and orgMisc (checkbox) change to FALSE.
If any 1 can offer advice or knows how to solve this issue, that would be great :)
I have a form that has unbound check boxes on it. They are linked to a query. The query has the following script in the criteria section
[Forms]![frmTEST]![Check0]
This is set up so that when I put a check in the checkbox and press the control button it envokes the query. I have 6 boxes on the form with the same script for the exception of the [Check0] number.
Right now the way it is set up I have to check the exact sequence in order to get any data. Is there a way that I can simply check a box and pull up all the records that are checked. (Ex. I check "Box 1" and push the control button. I want it then to show me all the records that have a check in "Box 1" regardless of what the other check boxes are.) So far I have not found a way to do this.
Hi I have a form that displays the results from a query. I have a check box that users select in order to show they want to print that record However, it has stopped letting me change the check box, and simply gives me the helpful windows 'bing' when I click on it. All the controls are set to allow me to write to it. Has anyone got any ideas of why this might happen? Cheers Ben salt P.S. If I go into the table directly, I can still change the status of the check box
