Checkbox Search Form?
Oct 9, 2006
Hi all, hoefully someone will be able to help me with this. My idea basically is that my form will have 3 check boxes on it a command button and a combo box for results. What i want to achieve is that when the user fills the relevent check boxes the hits the command button the combo box will fill in automaticaly with the results (names) dependent on which check boxes were filled in.
Any help on this matter would be great I havesearched the net and cant find and tuturials ect for this.

I'm relatively new to Access 2010. I have an excel spreadsheet that I've converted into an access table for the purposes of creating a user friendly form for the end user to search for relevant criteria to retrieve a list of records that fit the requests. There are two main search functions: unbound keyword search (90+ keywords), and either a series of checkboxes or one list box that lists specific countries/regions matched in a column (columns, as I will get to shortly). The region selection is bound by a selection of 15 countries.
The key is each record can correspond to more than one country. This, one record can have "Belgium, Germany, brazil" and the next record can just have "brazil". Thus if someone selects brazil, the query must retrieve the Belgium Germany brazil record in addition to the record that covers just brazil. I've tried to do this with a concatenated column that list all countries and a text box search, I've tried to do this with individual checkbox columns for each country with checkboxes in the search form...and I can't get it to work. I don't fully understand the criteria to set for checkboxes or list boxes. What would be the best way to build this form, an how?

I have a search form that uses a query to show results of a search, but everytime I press search everything comes up even though I have entered search parameters, even though my search requeries every time and the search used to work before I added new records today. Also when I press the query alone on the navigation pane it asks me for the parameters and then it actually works but it won't when I use my form.

I am having a problem with making a textbox visible on a form if a checkbox is checked on the same form. I have done research on this site and have written the code below, but I am getting a Syntax error, see yellow highlight.
- My checkbox is named: Case is a Readmission from WRCA IP to WRCA IP
- My textbox is named: Date of Current IP Admission (I have defaulted this textbox to not visible).
Here's the code I have written:
Private Sub Case_is_a_Readmission_from_WRCA_IP_to_WRCA_IP_Clic k()
If Case is a Readmission from WRCA IP to WRCA IP =true then
Date of Current IP Admission.visible=true
Else
Date of Current IP Admission.visible=false
[Code] .....

I downloaded Checkbox open form.zip from this site. It uses option group for the checkboxes
It runs perfectly when I double click in access but i would like to use this in vba when called from another form. When i put the code in and try to run it I get the error:
Compile Error
Method or data member not found
It is referring to .Frame8
Here is the code I used:
DoCmd.OpenForm "Mainform", acNormal
Select Case Me.Frame8
Case 1
Open Form 1
Case 2
Open Form 2
Case 3
Open Form 3
Case Else
MsgBox "You did not make a selection"
End Select

Hi All.
What I would like to do, is have a form popup when the main form is opened in my db, which will detail all the changes I have made to it since the last version (this bit is OK) and also, I would like a checkbox on the popup form, that the user can tick once they have read the details so it will not show up everytime they open the main form. (Just like the "hidestartupform" property within the Northwind Database)
I create the form and all that, but do not know how to do the checkbox so once it is checked, the form will not appear.
Hope this makes sense and someone can enlighten me and point me in the right direction?
Many Thanks.
Frank.

I need some serious help! I am an Access newbie and I think I am trying to do something more complicated than my skills. Any help will be extremely appreciated!
Here is the situation:
I have a table of volunteer records that record each volunteer's availability and areas of interest, which are checkboxes. The volunteer information area of the form basically looks like this:
Monday Tuesday Wednesday etc.
Morning O O O
Afternoon O O O
Evening O O O
O "Trails" O "Greenhouse" etc.
The "O" designates the checkboxes saying "yes" they are available at that time and "yes" they are interested in that area. I did it in checkbox form because it is the most visual and simplest way for my users to understand the record. My users' thought process is going to be this: I am having a greenhouse clean up this Tuesday evening. I need to run a report of all our volunteers that said they are available Tuesday evenings to work AND said that they want to work in the greenhouse. What I would like next to happen is they load the database I'm designing, click the switchboard to a search form that has the same checkbox layout as the volunteer record. They check Tuesday evening, check Greenhouse, then click run report. Report appears on screen that they can view, which they can choose to print so they can call the volunteers.
I have seen samples of listboxes and dropdown boxes as search criteria on a form, but the additional problem is that my end users are over the age of 65, scared of computers, nice ladies. They wouldn't understand the listbox of fields, and it would be a disaster trying to get them to understand AND/OR statements and the entering of yes/no on a list of search criteria, especially if they have more than one time availability and area of interest that they want to run in one report. Hence, sticking to the easy checkbox format for the never-used-a-computer-before ladies to run the reports they need, spitting out the information to the question they are asking, like "Who are all the volunteers that said they are available weekends to work special events? I need to call them to see if they would work the special event coming up in 3 weeks."
I am completely lost about how to go about doing a checkbox form to run a query of checkboxed data that spits out a report with the results :[ I would appreciate a simple sample or an explanation in layman's terms of the steps involved to achieving the results I would like. I am the type who would like to try to figure this out, so that I learn, but I am completely in over my head with this one :[
All patience and help with this will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Newbie Volunteer Coordinator

Hey all this is my first post so thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
I am trying to use multiple checkboxes on a form to try and make a select query, when the box is checked the data is queried when unchecked it is not, sounds simple enough, here is my problem.
I set the query criteria with an expression like this:
[Forms]![frmMainLookup]![Check Box Alarm Number]="-1"
As long as the checkbos is checked everything seems to work fine.
If I uncheck the checkbox then none of the data is shows up.
I still get the columns to show up just no data.
I am sure there is something simple I am missing but the Force is not with me today.
Thanks again for any help.

I have a table "LightDuty" with a field [Email Sent] that is a YES/NO field.
I do not have a checkbox on the main form for the [Email Sent]; instead this field is checked (in the table) when the user sends an email to the receipient. I use the [Email Sent] field as a criteria for my query.
I need to uncheck the checkbox when the user changes the date in a field called [Drs Excuse Exp].
This is what I have tried (in the AfterUpdate event of the Drs Excuse Exp control):
Code:
Dim db as DAO.Database
Dim rs as DAO.Recordset
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("LightDuty")
[Code] .....
I get the runtime error 3265 "Item not found in collection"

I am trying to write an IF statement as a macro on the OnClick property of a checkbox and can't get it to work. Basically, if the checkbox is checked (for Yes) I want it to open another form. (The checkbox is a field on a subform on a form).
I haven't even gotten this far yet, but I would also like the IF statement to include an AND somehow....in other words I want the IF statement to basically say if the box is checked for yes AND the offer status field ="Accepted", then open another form. If either is False, then I don't want it to do anything except display a message box saying they can't initiate a contract is both conditions aren't true.

I have a reservation form and I want to tick a checkbox that will filter the form based on what is in the "Reservation Status" combo box.When the checkbox is ticked, the code would remove all records that have "Complete" as a status in the "Reservation Status" combo box. The non-working code that I currently have is:
Code:
Private Sub chkHideComplete_AfterUpdate()
On Error Resume Next
If Me.chkHideComplete = True Then
Me.filter = "[ReservationStatus] = 1"
Me.FilterOn = True

I have form 1 that brings up a record, I then open up form 2 with that record details.
On the 2nd form I have a 'status' combo box with values 'OK', 'bad', 'unsubscribe'.
I want to change the value of a checkbox, 'Active', on the 1st form, 'Maildelivery', from true to false if the combo value is changed to 'bad'
Here's the code:
Private Sub cmb_status_AfterUpdate()
If Me.Status <> "OK" Then maildelivery.Active = 0
End Sub

Here's the scenario:
I have a table of Clients, each of which can have zero or more Contacts. Clicking the Contacts button on the Client form opens a pop-up form that displays the Client's Contacts.
Each Client can have a default Contact, indicated by a DefaultContact checkbox on the Contact form. If the user checks this checkbox, I want to run a piece of code that checks whether any of this Client's Contacts are already set as default and, if so, warns the user before proceeding. If the user goes ahead, 'default' status is assigned to the current Contact & removed from the other.
It seems to me that the obvious place to do this is on the Contact form's BeforeUpdate event, when the record is being saved. However, it's only necessary to do this when the DefaultContact checkbox has been clicked. But there's no 'Dirty' flag for checkboxes & the only way I can think of is to set a global (within the scope of the form) variable and get the BeforeUpdate code to check it before running my 'Default Contact' code above.

I have a column in a table that only is allowed one value, "Repealed" or simply left blank. I would like to have a checkbox on a form that enters the word "Repealed" or removes it depending on whether it's checked or not, rather than having the user enter the word "Repealed" each time.
Can anyone offer direction as to how to complete this? I've not had much experience with VB code.
Thanks

I need to add an additional filter to my unbound form and can't seem to get the syntax right -
I have a text field in my form "[B Style]" that has either a "Y" or "N"
I want to add a checkbox on my main form where, if checkbox=True then [B Style]="Y"
Private Sub ckBStyle_Click()
Dim stFilter As String
Dim stDocName As String
stDocName = "Modify_OpenItems"
If Me.ckBStyle.Value = True Then
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , ("[B Style]" = "Y")
Else: DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName
End If
End Sub
stDocName is opening but is completely blank.
Incorrect syntax?

I am asked to create a checklist for a number of tasks to be executed in a particular shift. However in some tasks can be skipped. There are three shifts per day.
To accomplish this i have created a continious form with a number of checkboxes per task which represent the days of the week. The tasks itself are stored in a seperate table with a checkbox per shift (task settings). If the tasks must be performed in a particular shift, the checkbox is activated (= true).
Goal here is, if a task doesn't have to be executed in a shift the task should not be visible on the continious form. The recordsource of the continuous form is a query, which contains a join between the table with the task settings and the table with the tasks performed.
I have placed some code to perform the task in the form's current event
In the continuous form current event I have placed for every checkbox the following code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
If Me. PerformTaskShift.Value = True Then
Me.MaandagOchtend.Enabled = False
End If
End Sub
However when i execute the code and load the form, not only the checkbox in the row mentioned are set invisible, all the rows are. Is there any way to set only the checkboxes on the rows mentioned invisible, in stead of all rows?

I'm a novice user of Access 2013.
I would like to be able to use a checkbox control to make either text boxes or forms appear when ticked, ultimately to stop a form being so untidy/to conserve space. I'd be using this on multiple occasions.
(If actioned, would it automatically shift the other controls in the form down to make space, or would it just overlap?

My bound master form has bound subform in it and both of them has linked fields. In the master form i've placed a checkbox which if unchacked will lock and disable a textbox in the SUBFORM, and if checked will enable and unlock the textbox and fill it with a calculation result, which will then be passed on to the underlying table.
Now, suppose in the master form (named X), i have A (checkbox) and B (textbox with numeric value) and in the subform (named Y), i have C & D (both textboxes with numeric values). Hence if A is checked, I'd like D to return the result of - "B*C". Or else D will remain locked and disabled.

Currently I have a query where the criteria is dependent on the combo boxes on my form. I would like to add checkboxes to my form which determines which fields are shown or hidden. For example if I had a checkbox for address, selecting it on my form will show the address column in my query results.

I am using Access 2010 and I have my tables hidden in the navigation pane (I don't have any concerns about users finding the tables to make edits), however I am looking to "lock" all fields on a form once a user saves the record. The concern is that when they go to enter a new record they may end up on a previous record and overwrite the information. My thought was to create a checkbox on the table that I can edit each week to lock records. At that point, what type of code can I create or use that will lock records on the form?
