Columns In Forms!
Mar 31, 2005HI
Is it possible to get more than 1 column per page in a continous form?
TIA
HI
Is it possible to get more than 1 column per page in a continous form?
TIA
I was able to use the UNION ALL qry. But, when I have another file (like original2) that does NOT have all the columns listed in the UNION ALL qry, I get a Parameter value box asking for the missing columns when I run the qry.
Example:
original1IDDateGroupChristianJohnnySteve 18/5/2013A1528/5/2013B338/5/2013C2348/5/2013D2358/5/2013E5
original 2IDDateGroupChristianJohnny18/6/2013A212528/6/2013B2338/6/2013C2248/6/2013D22
The UNION ALL qry includes all the possible resources ( includes all the possible column fields Christan, Johnny, and Steve).
When I run the UNION ALL qry with the original2 file, An "Enter Parameter Value" box is displayed with the mssing column name "Steve".
Is there a way to Map the original2 table into a working table with all the columns, or use VBA code to construct the UNION ALL qry to only include the existing columns? My data has variable columns and I'm trying to avoid the parameter popups.
I have a table with ProductName and QuantityAvailable...I have made a combo box which contains these 2 columns however there is no fieldname which I want.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a combo box with two columns. The first column has a drop down list of radiology studies (2view Cervical spine, 2view Lumbar spine etc.) the second column has the associated CPT code specific to that study. When I click on the drop down box on my form, the first column I can see both columns but when I pick one only one of them shows. Is there a way to see both columns or should I just add the CPT code to the first column?

I'm a bit stuck on creating a chart in Access 2010. Not sure if I've set my table up right or not
Here's my table design
And the input form
My data is laid out like so
When I insert a chart though, I'm lost. It's like it's totally ignoring my data. The data isn't mine, it says east, north and west like a 'default preview chart'. The row source is
Code:
SELECT [student_id],Count(*) AS [Count] FROM [tblProgressLevels] GROUP BY [student_id];
Which means nothing to me I've managed to get most of the other stuff figured out, but these charts are confusing me.
Output??
What I want it to do is show how the student is progressing but I've got it all back to front I think. How could I lay my data out so I have a single English column, a single maths and a single science and they still go up in terms like my form shows; they're all in the same table at the moment laid out the same way as I set up the English tracking.
I also just realised I'm trying to chart alphanumeric values stupid boy... Can Access do a conversion where I make a lookup table so that 1c = 1, 1b = 2, 1a = 3, 2c = 4, 2b = 5 etc. or would a query work?
I have developed an Access app, which has different navigational tabs which open up different forms. e.g. Tab A has Form A inside it and Form A has SubForm A1 inside it. For some reason, the following code is not working on any of the fields Me.YourFieldName.ColumnWidth = -2...some workaround so that all the fields in the subforms will have auto width adjustable to fit in the text.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI can't get my columns on a form to resize and have the rest of the columns move along with it. So e.g. if I have a form with headers and under that a couple of records, I want to resize the middle of three columns. If I select the column and then select, with shift, also the column header, I can resize the column. But the column on the right side doesn't move along with it. So I have to reposition every column after the resized one.How can I get Access to pick up that I want to move the other columns too?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a table of data (codes & amounts) which I want to display on a form via a list box (purely for information purposes; the list box will be locked / disabled). Basically, the list box will mimic a pivot table as it would appear in Excel, albeit without any of the filtering functionality.Codes can appear multiple times in the source table, each with a different value assigned to it.
The list box should have 3 columns :the unique code strings
the number of instances of that code string (i.e. Count)
the total value assigned to that code string (i.e. Sum)
In descending order based on the number of instances of each code
I have the following query set up to pull the data :
Quote:
SELECT tblData.Code AS Expr1, Count(*) AS CodeCount, Sum(tmp.Amount) AS CodeSum
FROM (SELECT Code, Amount FROM tblData) AS tmp
GROUP BY tblData.Code
ORDER BY Count(*) DESC;
I want the 3rd column of the listbox (the summed value) to appear as a formatted $ amount rather than a raw floating point. So "$10,000" rather than "10000.00". And, if at all possible, right aligned.But I have no way of formatting the columns of the list box (that I am aware of) either through the listbox properties directly or by VBA indirectly.Is there another way I can do this, either by applying the formatting to the query itself or any other trick to somehow apply the formatting as I need it?
I have a combo box with 2 columns, Item # and the Item Description. As of right now I have to type the Item # and it will autofill the text. I was wondering if there is a way if I don't have the Item # that I can search/type the description in the combo box field and it will autofill?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have created a list that has 5 column. Data is filled in list using a query. I know how to remove 2 columns, but I do not know how to increase the width of columns.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got a form with a drop down combo box with two columns. When you hit the down arrow it shows both columns, but when you click a choice, it only shows the data in the first column. How do I make it show both columns after it has been chosen? First col is First Name, second col is Last Name.

I want to have something like a datasheet, except with with records shown as columns instead or rows.
For clarity, a datasheet displays records as rows, like this:
field 1 field 2
record 1 record 1
record 2 record 2
I'm wanting to present the data the other way around, like this:
field 1 record 1 record 2
field 2 record 1 record 2
Just to complicate matters, the number of records to be displayed is variable, so it should add more columns as required.
About the only option I can think of is to create a subform with fields stacked in a column without labels, and try to dynamically stack the forms as needed, hooking them up to the correct data on the fly.
Alternately, I wondered if I could dynamically generate a recordset with each record containing the field value of multiple records. I can see myself getting into trouble trying to update data this way however.
I have would like to have a option group requery a list box with 2 yes/no columns as the criteria.
First Option = No criteria
Second Option = Yes in first column only
Third Option = Yes in second column only
So far I've been able to get option 1 and 2 to work, but I've not been able to define the same value to the third option, some of the values in the 2 columns over lap so using a single option doesn't seem to be the right method.

I am attempting to display a tickmark (wingdings character 0252) . I have two columns with textbox controls. In each I display a -1 or Null, and the format is ; [Green] (corresponding to the 0252)
For each record, there can be a tickmark in one (and only one) of the columns, or no tickmark in any columns. The tickmark is set by clicking on the control. Unfortunately, the entire square occupied by the tickmark is selected, so it looks weird, so long as the cursor remains there. I want to get rid of that (it goes away by itself if I click on the other record).
I have tried to set the Txtbox.SelSTart=0 or Textbox.SelLength=0 , or change the value from -1 to 1 (that influences which position in the format is affected) ...but a postbox character keeps croppping up in theses instances.
I have a form for student attendance that is bound to a query and stores a temporary value for ClassesAttended in a StudentEnrollment table as faculty enters the attendance. They then run an append query to write the temporary records to a StudentAttendance table. Because the ClassesAttended field is bound, when the form is opened, it recalls the last number entered for that student in that class as entered by the faculty the last time attendance was updated. I tried leaving the field unbound, but the first value enter into the first record of the form is updated automatically to all subsequent records.
Is there a way to change the properities, use code, etc. to assigne a null or 0 to the ClassesAttended field when the form opens, without the first updated record to propagate through the reaming records?

I am pretty new to VBA and I am having the same problem of hiding and un-hiding columns on a datasheet of a split form. I am building a system that will be used in front of customer and therefore wish to hide columns that contain cost sensitive data. The same forms need to be able to show the Sales Rep the hidden columns simply by ticking a box. Basically a toggle on and off of hidden columns.
I have been playing around with the code below (which i found in another forum) to hide the Field called COO when I click the tick box called chkHIdeFields check box. This works on a Single form but not on a datasheet of a split form.
Private Sub chkHideFields_Click()
' Note: vbTrue = -1
If Me.chkHideFields = vbTrue Then
Me.COO.Visible = True
Else: Me.COO.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
I have been able to hide the column of my split form by using the ColumnHidden property of the On Load event just as a proof of concept that the ColumnHidden property actually works to hide a column, which it does. This is the code that im using to hide the column called COO.
Me.COO.ColumnHidden = True
However if I then set it to = False and then close and open the form, it doesn't unhide the column. the only way I can unhide the column is to do it from the Form view via the un-hide dialogue pop up box.
I have two issues here, the first one is getting the form to recognize when to hide and when to show the column of the datasheet on the split form and the second is to get the code to for the check box method.
Lastly once I get it working for 1 field I need to be able to define a list of 7 or 8 other fields all at the same time.
I've created several Split forms that have the data input fields in the form with the relevant query datasheet shown below. As you tab through the form fields, the various cells in the datasheet are highlighted and move across the data row (as one would expect!). I want to put a particular field / Column at the start of the datasheet so that it's always available for view, but it seeme that what ever I do the column ends up back at the very far end of the data row!
I've sussed out the "Freeze Fields" facility which will keep the first column visable whichever cell is highlighted across the data row.
The column I want as the first column currently sits at the far end of the data row. So far I have dragged the row to the first column position; I've arranged the Query driving the form so that the column is at the front of the row, both in design view and in datasheet view, but to no avail. Everything I do to put the column at the start of the row in the datasheet shown below the form ends up with it back at the far end of the row the next time I open the form.
I have a multiple select combobox which shows up in many forms- SubCategories. The user can pick from a list of 154 SubCategories.
Everything is working properly however it is difficult for the user to scroll through the entire list.
My question: Is there a way to represent this ONE field in multiple columns in the combobox?
I know how to add columns for multiple fields to my combobox, but this is one field.
Maybe there is a better way to represent the data... a subform would have the same issue.
I have an unbound combo box with three columns, which get the values from a query. The first column is hidden. When I close the combo box after my selection, only the second column value is shown on the box. Is there any way that both the second and third column being shown on the box after selection?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm a newbie with Access, how to reorder the displaying of the columns in a Combo Box dropdown list of have in my Access 2007 application.
The columns that are being displayed are (in the current order):
Part Name
Unit Price
Parts.Web_Category
I want the order to be the following:
Parts.Web_Category
Part Name
Unit Price
I have a form presented in datasheet layout.
I set the initial sort by two columns, but I would like to keep highest priority for that initial sort, so when user wants to sort by some other columns that sort happens inside my initial sort.
Im working in Access 2007.
So i have query based on 1 table that populates a Form. The primary key for that table is Entity ID. Therefore once the query has been run I have multiple records that i can scroll through in my form distiguished by their Entity ID.
I have a second table that has a Entity ID column, AFE Available column, and many others. The primary key for this table is called Match ID. This table contains records that have the same Entity ID.
My goal is to display on the form the Sum of the "AFE Availible" for each Entity ID. so as you scroll through the records the Entity ID is changing and you are able to see a the Specific "AFE Availible" Sum related to the current Record showing on the form.
I couldn't figure out a way to have a query based off both tables where the records are only uniquely defined by the Entity ID in Budget Info. What was happening is the query was displaying all the records that had the same Entity ID because of the AFE Spent table. That way when you scroll through the records the form shoes records with the same entity id.
Maybe im doing it all wrong and you dont need the tables attached to the same query. That would make it easier i think. So you would have two queries populating different text boxes on a form. Is that even possible?
I have a database with a form that has 3 fields in a subform. I need to paste there data from multi rows. Now I have to do this column by column and paying attention that I select them correctly. Is there a way to directly insert the data by selecting only 1 field and have the data directly there as it would in excel?
Now we use excel as a "between" road to paste it there and then copy it from excel and paste it into access.
