I have a query parameter that I'm running from a form and it works fine the first time. Pops up and asks me for the parameter with no problem and the query runs fine. However, if I run the same query again it doesn't ask me for the parameter - it just takes whatever I entered the first time. How do I clear this so it always asks me for the parameter?
View RepliesI am currently working on a form that exports a query that changes after a user set filter is applied, and am able to get the filter to apply and the query to export. The problem I am having is that the worksheet that the query is copied into retains all previous data, and if the earlier query export included more records, they remain as they were, is there any way of getting them to be blank.
I want to export my query onto a worksheet that has current data, need to delete current data or delete worksheet so that only the selected data is shown.
My code currently is:
Private Sub Command67_Click()
Dim strWhere As String
Dim strFile As String
Const strcStub = "SELECT NomT.shkFirstName, NomT.shkSurName, NomT.shkCompanyName, NomT.shkAdd1, NomT.shkAdd2, NomT.shkPostCode, NomT.shkRegion, NomT.shkCountry, NomT.shkAdd3" & " FROM NomT" & vbCrLf
With Me.FilterSub.Form

I have a form whose data source is a select query, q3, that is built from 2 other select queries. I'll call them q1, q2, and q3. q1 is a parameter query where I enter a "Cutoff Date" that the 3 queries manipulte and generate the desired results that appear in the form. The problem is that I don't know how to capture the parameter "Cutoff Date" from q1 to display on the form.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have a query that requires a Start-Date and an End-Date to be input by user for the Where clause. It is asking for both over and over. I've had it ask from 1 up to 4 times! :eek: Shouldn't it store the input and only ask for it once? I'm thinking that the way my query is arranged may be causing it to have to loop through that section more than once to find the data, but that's just my theory. Any help would be great!
Here is my code (abbreviated slightly):
SELECT DISTINCTROW C1.*, C2.*
FROM Pen AS C1 INNER JOIN Jobs AS C2 ON C1.subno=C2.[Jobs Acct]
WHERE ((C1.typ="SS" Or C1.typ="CC" Or C1.typ="PP" Or C1.typ="TT") And C1.stdate>=[Enter Start Date] And C1.stdate<=[Enter End Date] And C2.[Type]<>"EE" And C2.[Type]<>"QQ" And C1.entdate<=C2.[ChangeDate]+60);
I'm selecting rows from "Pen" and "Jobs" that have the same subno/Jobs Acct numbers (text), then there are criteria for "Pen" types, user inputs criteria for date range (Start Date and End Date) and there are criteria for "Jobs" types. Finally, there's a cross-table criteria based on a date field ("Pen" entdate should not be more than 60 days past the "Jobs" ChangeDate). Tables are in quotes in my explanation here.
So running the above, it asks for user input "Enter Start Date", then again for "Enter End Date"...but then it asks for each again...and again...and sometimes again!
Help! :confused:
P.S..I didn't notice this repeating until I made it user input (parameter query) because it was using whatever dates I hard-coded in there before.

Hi all
Im not sure what is the best way to go about this.
I have a table with 8000 records and on one of the fields the department name is wrong. eg should be "Marketing", but some records have the name "Marke" or "Marketi"
Is there an easy way to update this field to add on the missing characters ?
Thanks in advance
On a form I have 2 search unbound fields called keysearchword and guestsearchword. Each has an On Exit event that performs their respective searches.
If IsNull([Keysearchword]) Then
strLinkCriteria = "[Keywords] Like '*'"
Else
strLinkCriteria = "[Keywords] Like '*" & Me!Keysearchword & "*'"
End If
DoCmd.OpenForm strDocName, , , strLinkCriteria
However, after the first find, I see a "(filtered)" next to the correctly displayed records. At this point however, I can't even get the cursor into the second guestsearchword field.
What am I doing wrong and how do I fix it?

I have been tweaking my friend's database for him. I included some sample data in the main table (ficticious names and addresses etc.) and in a linked table.
I want to leave the sample data in so my friend understands how the database works. However, once he has tested it, he will want to blank those tables (not all tables, though), and reset the primary keys to start from 1 again.
Can I have a button on a form that will do this? Obviously with an OK/cancel message box. If so, how?
The tables are called Main and Workshops.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Hi
I have set up a simple password system to allow someone to have access to some forms within my database that I don't want others to see. I have created a pop up form for the password based on using the Input Mask Password. The password log in works fine but the password stays in the input box so if another user clicks on the button that brings up the password pop up form, all they have to do is press enter or click the command button and they are through.
How can I get the password input box to clear itself - probably on closing the password form?
I'm sure it's a simple piece of code but my knowledge of VB is limited and everything I have tried brings up an error of one sort or another.
Thanks for any help.
I have a one page form set up into 4 different sections. Each section has its own command. First section is Radio buttons with a drop down list. The next three are text boxes. I have a rather simple question, next to my OK command button I want a to create a button that will say "Clear" and I want it to clear the text inside the text field but if possible to clear the radio buttons and the drop down list too. Its not a main concern about radio buttons because you can just unclick it. But I was not sure what the VB is for clearing text inside a text box.
Thank you.
I have a command button on a form which i would like to click on to clear all the textbox on a form. Witihn the event procedure of the command button i have tried cylindernumber = "". This does clear the text box however it deletes the information from the table to, which i do not want to happen. I just wnat the text box to be clear once the button is clicked on without deleting the information from the table.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a way to clear the fields from a form after I finish entering data into all the fields (enter button or something). The form only displays one record at a time. My problem is that after a distraction (phone call, etc) I sometimes wind up coming back and entering data in the last displayed record which messes up that record. Or is there a way to automatically advance to a blank form when finished with a record?......
Thanks,

I have created an email message to be sent via a closing button on a form, using the DoCmd.SendObject command. It all works fine except that MS Outlook then puts a message box on the screen with a countdown bar saying that MS Access is trying to access Outlook and to press Yes if this is to be allowed.
Is there any way that I can disable this message box please. I appreciate that this is more an Outlook problem than an Access one, but some database programmer has probably come across the same problem before.
Many thanks

Hi all. I'm just getting into Access, so I am still learning pratically everything. Here is my issue-
To learn Access (2000), I have created a very simple database (from scratch) for creating a grocery shopping list.
The database works very nice and is useful to creating a shopping list. I created a table of grocery items with a YesNo field indicating that the item is to be put on the grocery list. I then created a form that shows the stores (that I shop at) with a subform that shows the grocery items on the list. The subform can be altered so I can check the box (for the YesNo field) for the items for the grocery list. Then I print a report that displays the grocery list based on the Yes in the checkbox.
What I would like to do is to be able to clear the check boxes all at once when I create a new gorcery list. This way I do not have to go through 50 items and manually unchecking the boxes before creating a new grocery list.
Is there a way to do this? I appreciate any responses- I am a hardware troubleshooting pro, but not fluent in programming- So please go slow !!!
Hi
I am using Microsoft Access 2003. I want to clear the contents of a combobox in vba code. I found that there used to be a method called cmbbox.clear() but cant find this method in Access2003. Can someone throw some light on this.

I have a switchboard which gives two selections. Upon selecting a menu item, the new menu appears. If I select from this new menu, it runs as it should do. However, upon returning to this second menu, the button remembers where it was instead of being cleared to select the same item, if desired, again. How can the option box button be cleared as do the switchboard buttons?

I am creating a database that keeps track of everyone who is currently "In" at work. I am giving a set number of people "administrative" access to the backend where they can view the status of everyone. The plan is to have them export each daily report into an Excel document. Every morning when the administrator comes in, he/she will need to click a button that clears everyones status so they can start over. The employees names and payscale stays the same and does not clear.
I am all about automation! If there is a way where the specified fields automatically clear, say after midnight.
