Setfocus From Pop Up Back To Already Open Form
Jan 26, 2006Hi everyone,
I'm hoping I can get some help here.
I have a form with a search button. Click on search, search for member, then form should close and populate the fields on the form which is already open.
I figure I should use setfocus, but I am new to coding and need help. Right now, when the user clicks on the search record, it opens a new instance of the form instead of populating the data into the form that is already open.
I hope I am asking the question correctly.
This the event procedure I have set on the pop up search. It works, but is opening a new instance of the form. I tried replacing OpenForm to SetFocus with no luck.
Private Sub Member_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmDEMOGRAP", acNormal
[Forms]![frmDEMOGRAP]![txtMEMBNO] = Member
[Forms]![frmDEMOGRAP]![txtLSTNAM] = Last
[Forms]![frmDEMOGRAP]![txtFSTNAM] = First
[Forms]![frmDEMOGRAP]![txtMIDNAM] = MI
[Forms]![frmDEMOGRAP]![txtBTHDAT] = BirthDate
[Forms]![frmDEMOGRAP]![cmbGENDER] = gender
DoCmd.close acForm, "frmMEM", acSaveNo
End Sub
Thanks in advance for the help.

Passing Focus From A Pop Up Form Back To Mainform
Oct 1, 2005I have a form for entering data and to aid people inputting data into a text box I would like a pop up form to appear to enable them to refresh their memories as it were with some information. I was going to use the got focus event of the text box to open the popup but how do i then pass the focus back to the main form and text box without triggering the event again
on the flip side I would like to use the lost focus event to close the sub form as well.
any suggestions greatfully received.

Prevent Form From Jumping Back To Top During Requery?
Mar 20, 2006Hello All,
I'm a newbie to the forum, but hope that someone can point me in the right direction to solve a problem.
Background:
I have a db that I use much like Quicken to maintain a ledger and reconcile accounts. To reconcile credit card transactions, I have a continuous form that lists each transaction as a record in the Detail. Each record has Check Boxes for Yes/No criteria pertaining to "Cleared Status", "On Statement", and "Missing Receipt". Checking the box for "On Statement" allows a subsequent report to include the items that are checked. Likewise, an Update Query used later in the process sets all all items in the reconcile to "cleared" so that do not reappear on the list of items to reconcile. In order to cause the Report and the Update Query to reassess the Yes/No status for each item and thus function properly, I have set the Event Proceedure for these Check Boxes to Requery the underlying data.
Problem:
As you can imagine, the list of Credit Card Transactions is a long one. Each time a Check Box is clicked, the requery causes the list of records to jump back to the very top of the list. This really slows down the process of completing the reconcile. Is there a way to hold the continuous list in the detail section still as the requery takes place?
Thank you very much for any help you can provide.

Coming Back From Report - Form Out Of Position
Jun 23, 2006hi i have a button that loads a report. If i then close the report the form, which is set with no border/no max/min/close/non movable and opens maximised, places itself off centre. I want it to stay maximised full screen. The only work around i currently have is when the use moves the mouse over the form it maximises itself. Will this then be calling this function everytime the mouse moves(cant be very efficient). is there a better way to maximise the form Immediately after closing the report.
View 5 Replies View RelatedQueries :: 2 Tables To Query To Form Then Back?
Oct 1, 2013I have a database for contacts and inventory, and im having a issue with the contacts part of it.
I have 2 tables, 1 table is a list of contacts with their name, contact information and the facility they work at. The other table, carries all the information for the facility(the tables are in a one to many relationship with this)
I have a query that brings them together and displays them on a spreadsheet form. This worked when it was all one table, but with the 2 tables, you cant edit stuff in form and have it go back to the tables . what would be the best way to make it editable. I separated the forms out like this so that if a facilities name changed, it could be fixed easily throughout the database.

Apr 25, 2005Hi,
I have a database which is secured via a workgroup.
I have just ran the database splitter to seperate the data into a back end. But now I can open the back-end directly without any password.
How do I ensure that the back end is still secured when doing this?
Thanks,

Back End Security
Jul 28, 2005Hi folks,
I've built a few simple databases in the past, but never one where security was required. Now someone wants a database where access to certain areas is limited. Everything I read about Access Security here makes it seem complicated, and flaky, so I was wondering about doing something simpler ;
1. Make the Back End password protected so no one can open it
2. Make the front end an MDE. Put certain forms behind a form which prompts for a password. Store the password in a table to allow it to be changed if required.
So this looks like a crude method to me, but it is for a small user base, where the manager needs access to certain info which employees shouldn't see. I suppose if an employee was so minded, and put in some effort, they could get around the simple password-protection, but is it worth setting up proper security for a small project ?
Can anyone offer any advice on how much more secure the database would be if I did it properly ?
Thanks,

Back-up And Recovery
Oct 12, 2005Hi,
I come with a mainframe background so please excuse me for my Ignorance on Ms-Access/VBA. :(
I am in the process of developing a solution using Access/VBA. I want to include custom Database Backup and Restore facility within my Application. :rolleyes:
For example:
Say I take a backup of the Database before the monthly update and store the backup (in a folder).
After the update, if a user thinks that the monthly update did not go as he was expecting (this could be because of the data that he fed into the application) - I want to give a option asking user if s/he want to rollback to a previous version of the database. (This will be similar to Windows SYSTEM RESTORE facility).
The Database sits on a network drive (mostly this would be used by one user for the update part and may be 1-2 users who would be viewing the reporpts that come out of it)...So I can safely say it is a stand-alone, single user system.
What I would to ask your help is on following.
1. While my application is running how do I do the restore?
Or do I have to have a seperate application which performs this (ie., restore/backup) operation?
2. While my application is running, Can I take a backup copy of the Entire Database?
Any other hints/help regarding this would be much appreciated. :)
TIA,
PW.
Back End Won't Open

Back End And Front End
Oct 19, 2007Hi friends,
I think I am having some problem with my back end and frond end files. I have a mde file that anytime I enter new data or change some things in the old clients file, it does not update on the mdb file. Anytime I need to change forms or report or any thing at all, I am suppose to copy the BE file and the MDB file to my workstatio, remove the table link, make the changes I want to make on the design mode and then import the files back to the live copy of the mdb file then make another mde file to work with. But When I copy the BE and the MDB files, I don't have the updated client list or new client just added. So as not to affect other users, I can not make changes in the MDE file and even the MDE file will not even let me make any changes in design mode. I don't know If I am making sense but any help will be appreciated
thanks

Front End And Back End
Oct 27, 2007I am having a trouble with a multiuser DB. I have split it using the Splitter Wizard and have put a copy of my FE to a second computer and relinking its tables. When I opening the bound form in computer 1, computer 2 can not open that form and sometimes computers lock and had to restart the machines. But if I open that form in computer 2 first and then the same form in computer 1 , it works fine. I have set full sharing to computer 1. I am using Access 2007 and Windows VISTA.
Both have FE, the BE is located in a shared folder with full permissions in C: in computer 1, the FE of computer 1 is in that same folder. Both computers are connected via a Cat5e Cable.
FE in computer1 table links to c:databaseBE and computer 2 links to computer1_IP_Addressc:/databaseBE
Can anyone help me please!!!
I'd appreciate it a lot
Thank you!!

I've one FE & BE related question here. Ok first of all I've BE in server and each user have copy of FE in local PC. But I've one problem with linked tables between FE & BE.
Is there a way that FE can programmatically create connection to BE linked tables or user is able to link those tables manually, if FE can't find/connect to linked tables in BE? Or do I just have to manually configure each users FE linked tables?
All replies are welcome and well approciated at all costs! :D

View 1 Replies View RelatedADO Connection To SQL Back-end
Aug 30, 2005I am working on an MS Access database that will connect to an MS SQL db back-end through ADO code only (no constant connection), so I am using connection strings when it is needed to pull back data, other wise it is not connect to the back-end database.
I am trying to get the code correct, and I believe I am close but missing one piece. Here is an example of what I have so far:
--------------------------------------------------------
Dim cat As New ADODB.Connection
Dim cmd As ADODB.Command
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
cat.ConnectionString = "PROVIDER=SQLOLEDB;SERVER=KCNTLBASE;DATABASE=Test;U ID=testuser;PWD=testpassword"
cat.Open
Set cmd = New ADODB.Command
cmd.ActiveConnection = cat
cmd.CommandType = adCmdText
cmd.CommandText = "Select MttrNm from dbo.Page0"
cmd.Execute
Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
rs.Open cmd 'cmd.Execute
MsgBox rs.RecordCount, vbOKOnly, "Test"
'Debug.Print rs.GetString
cat.Close
-------------------------------------
I believe my error is at this line:
cmd.ActiveConnection = cat
I want the cmd to use the connection string. But all the help I find is just the code "CurrentProject.Connection" which only connects me to the MS Access database itself.
Does anyone know what I need to place here so that the cmd is using the correct connection string to the SQL back-end?
Thank you for your time.

I have a DB that relies on text file imports as well as input and I recently split it. Unfortunately now my refresh script that updates the tables based on the text files imports them into the FE rather than the BE.

Accessing Back End Over Network
Oct 31, 2005Hi
I've got a back end database on one of my computers and i'm trying to get the link tables to work over a network from another computer. Ive set the link tables up but it wont let me edit any data because it is read only. Its not read only when i run the front end from the computer that stores the back end. How do i enable the front end to edit the data over the network?
also, it is a multi-user system so i want multiple front end parts accessing the one back end but whenever i try and access the data from one system when another is already open it says the file is in use and i can't do anything!
I'm really stuck at the moment and i really need some help please! :confused:
