Hi everybody,
In a continuous form, If I use a comboboxe with a criteria looking up a field in the same record, it seems that the combo boxe only looks up the value of the firsrecord, Iam not sure I understand why?
I was wondering if it there was any method to be able to use Cascading combo boxe in a continuous form.
Hi, I am having a problem using the combo boxe, I think it is an easy problem but I have been spending the all morning trying to find a solution with no success.
i am designing a form allowing to enter the different costumer information in our system. The costumers information are broke down in 2 tables TblCostumer and TblCostumerOffice where a single costumer can have many offices across the world. The form shows the main costumer with a subform showing the different offices location.
I wanted to use a comboxe on the main form allowing the user to go on the specific costumer page selected, I am just working with 2 fields for now CostumerID and CompanyName. The combo boxe is bound to CostumerID and is not allowing any change, I don't know if it is the right method because I would normally use combo boxe to change a field value not find a specific record. Should i use code in the after update event using the 'gotorecord' or 'findrecord' command?
I have built an example of a form that I am working on. My original design used the default record navigator bars that are setup when you use the wizard to create the form. I would like to remove those bars and use the linked combo boxes that I have placed onto the form instead.
My end all goal is to have those two record navigation bars completely gone from the form and have the combo boxes perform the same function they were used for.
I would like to keep the data entry portion of the form the same because I like the design and I like that I can limit it to data entry only so theres no chance that the users will accidentally modify existing data. However, if you have a different method of entering the data that will still provide me with the protection of "data entry only" that will be welcomed.
Hello!
I have problem and I've been picking my brains out with it. Here's how it is:
I have the folowing tables
Orders: IdOrder IdClient
OrderLineItems: IdOrderLineItem IdOrder IdProduct ChargeRate
Products: IdProduct Description
Clients: IdClient CompanyName
Now, what I want to do is the following: I want a form that will display all orders with all products.something like this:
IdOrder | CompanyName | Products
1 | ABC | ComboBox with products
2 | XYZ | ComboBox with products
How do I do it? It's easy with everything else, the ComboBox gives me headakes. I can't seem to link the Products to the correct Order so that each combobox displays only the items for that specific Order.
Thanx for helping!
Is it possible to hide or show a combo in certain records in a continuous form. i.e if certain certain conditions are met.
At present I have if Check1 = true then Combo1.Visible = true
The trouble is it then displays the combo in all records.
how to assemble cascading combo boxes in a continous form. I wasn't having any luck in my database so I decided to create a clean test database file and just try and get the concept to work.
I've got 3 tables, Products, Categories and Orders and the form is based on Orders. In the form you select a Category from a combo box and then when you click the Product combo box it should only display products in the selected category. Technically that works. But if you click any other combo box under Products it will always display the same products as whichever combo box you click first. Until you close the form and reopen it.
Currently I'm working on a quote form in an inventory database. The invoice form consists of a main form with the customers information and a subform which is continous and is for selecting parts. Each part has multiple serial numbers which need to be quoted individually. Basically what I want to do is when you select a specific serial number on one record, I want it removed from the combo box on all other records in the continuous form. (either previous or new) How would I go about doing this?
View 1 Replies View Relatedcombo boxes and continuous forms.I have a continuous form (works great), with two combo boxes that navigate (rather than limit/ filter the list) to the desired selection.One for suburb and one for postcode.
I have expanded the select criteria for the suburb to include postcode as some suburb names are used in more than one state. (I do not want to have to select a state, then suburb).I changed the column count to see the postcode next to the suburb, however when the selection is made only the first instance is selected.
Example.
Epping 2121
Epping 3076
If I chose Epping 3076, Epping 2121 is selected and the continuous form navigates to that suburb (rather than the one with 3076).Can I change this so that I can still search by postcode, or search by suburb and have the form navigate to the corrected suburb postcode combination?
I have a Continuous form that is used to place orders in my Purchase order Database. I have a combo box with a Textbox over laid, so the users can type in the Textbox and it filters the combo box as they type. This is to search Nominal ledger codes that the current user has set up.
This has been working fine, but now finding issues as people have 400+ Nominal coeds set up. So there is a lag when the user is typing.Is there a better way of doing this? i have a similar setup to search a supplier but this is not a continuous form and the majority of objects are un bound.
Code:
Private Sub lstSelect_AfterUpdate()
Me.lstSelect.RowSource = "qryCurrentNominalNew"
End Sub
Private Sub lstSelect_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Me.lstSelect.RowSource = "qryCurrentNominalNew"
End Sub
[code]...
I have a main form with a sub form in continuous form view. The main form displays across the top and allows the user to enter the required 4 fields of info and then tab to the subform. Here each record is a line where the user has a number of text boxes to enter the required fields. There are 2 fields that are combo boxes that are limited to the lists - the first combo box is Observation and when the user selects their choice the 2nd combo box refreshes and gives them the choices of Categories within that Observation.
I am stuck on how to make the combo boxes "independent". Right now, if the user is in record 1 of the subform and selects an observation, the 2nd combo in that record refreshes and displays the records correctly of the categories available for that observation. Then the categories are "stuck" on whatever observation was selected in record 1 when record 2 is created. If in the 2nd record (or any other) the user selects a different observation, the categories in all records display the choices for that observation.
The categories need to be reflective of the observation within each record.
I am running access 2007 and have a continuous form that I am trying to filter. The table that I am pulling the data from has the following fields: Order_Date, Order_number, Model.
I want to filter based on Order_Date.
I tried creating an "after update" Macro builder on my combo box and using "Apply Filter" but I cannot seem to get my syntax right.
Filter is the name of my combo box
Here is my current setup:
Filter Name:
Where Condition: [Order_Date] Like [Filter]
Control Name:
However whenever I select a new date from my combo box it asks me to "Enter Parameter Value" for Filter, which I don't understand because my combo box name is Filter. I would think they would link up.
Combo box on continuous form should have the control source listed as the field on the form that will be updated. The Row Source, however, is a query that includes 2 things: the field on the form that will be updated (this part will be nonvisible in your form) and the table/query of selections you want to show up in the combo box (visible). Then ensure the Bound column is set to 1 and the Column count is set to 2 with Column Widths as 0";1"

I have a form on which I have placed a list box which will return data from a query via cmd button.
Is it possible to use the same listbox to see different queries, using different cmd buttons?
I will place multiple button each one of which will run a query that will show its data in the list box.
Anyone knows if this is possible?
Thanks.
What I am trying to do is put a subform within a subform. The trouble is I want both forms to be continuous forms.
when I put the subform within a subform, access comes up with the following message:
************************************************** ********************
A form with a subform object cannot have its DefaultView set to Continuous forms.
You tried to add a subform to a form in design view.
MSAcess will reset the property to Single Form.
************************************************** *********************
which it does my higher level form becomes a form only showing single records at a time whilst the subform is a continuous form.
does anyone know of a way around this?
what about Access2003 does it allow this?
help much appreciated.

hi guys i have a main form called Passengers coming from tblPassengers table and then it has a subform to select the destinations for each passenger.
My subform (continuous) consist of entering up to 3 destinations for each passenger so i created a combo box with this row source:
SELECT DestinationID, Destination FROM tluDestination
WHERE DestinationID NOT IN(SELECT DestinationID FROM tblDestinations WHERE PassengerID = Forms!formname!txtPassengerID);
The reason is that i want that when the user enters a destination, when they go to select another one , the selected one is excluded from the list. but it does not happen... can someone help me with this , i am going nutss
i attached the db to see if anyone can help...
I have various comboboxes within a continious subform where you select a main field, and then it should let you only select the relent fields below it.
Example:
1.Main Product (HS_level1): Live animals
2.Sub Product (HS_level2): Live sheep and goats
3.Product (HS_level3): Sheep, live
...other fields on amounts, etc.
Adding the first product to the list is easy. Query I use:
Private Sub HS_level1ID_AfterUpdate()
'make next HS levels empty and requery the list of products
Me.HS_level2ID = Null
Me.HS_level2ID.Requery
'the query that is been run selects only HS_level2 that are linked with HS_level1
Me.HS_level3ID = Null
Me.HS_level3ID.Requery
'jump to next HS_Level field
DoCmd.GoToControl ("HS_level2ID")
End Sub
But when I add the second product to the CONTINUOUS form, all hell breaks loose and the previous record's values also gets reset.
How can I ensure that VBA only runs for the selected record?
I want to use buttons on a form to change the sort order on a continuous form. In the buttons click event I am using a public function (named Sort_1) to change the sort order. The first element of the event call is the name of a generic query (named Sort_1_Query1) and the query field to sort (LAST_NAME OR FRIST_NAME, depending on the button.)This is the Click Statement.
=Sort_1("Sort_1_Query1","LAST_NAME")
This is the Public Function
Public Function Sort_1(SortName As String, FieldName1 As String)
DoCmd.ApplyFilter SortName, FieldName1 & "between 'A' and 'Z'"
End Function
I think the problem is in the use of quotation marks or trying to pass the query field name to the Do Command or the use of an ampersand.
I have a continuous form in which I put a command button for each record called "detail". I would like to click on the "detail" button and make it open another form containing all (and only) the info on this record.
At first I refused to use an "id" to link both forms, but finally I added the "id" in the table... however still does not work.
continuous form: "04 - GASTOS_BUSQUEDA"
id field on continuous form: "Gastid"
pop-up (details) form: "GASTOS_EDITAR"
id on pop-up (details) form: "editar_id"
This is what I have tried on the "click" properties of the "details" button field (called "btn_editgs"):
1)
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", acNormal, , "[editar_id] = " & Me.Gastid
2)
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , "[editar_id]=" & Me.Gastid
3)
stLinkCriteria = "[editar_id]=" & Me![Gastid]
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , stLinkCriteria
4)
Private Sub btn_editgs_Click()
On Error GoTo btn_editgs_Click_Err
Dim strWhere As String
strWhere = "[editar_id] = " & Me.Gastid
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , strWhere
btn_editgs_Click_Exit:
Exit Sub
btn_editgs_Click_Err:
MsgBox Error$
Resume btn_editgs_Click_Exit
End Sub
I have a continuous form that displays all my customers .I want to be able to dble click a customers ID and go to there customer details form.

I have a continuous form bound to a recordset that has the following fields:
- Ignore: Boolean
- OverTime: Boolean
- AnnualLeave:Boolean
-ExtraValue: Double
The Ignore, OverTime, AnnualLeave fields are bound to a I, O, A checkboxes respectively in this continuous form. The ExtraValue bound to a EV textbox in this form.
What I want is that when the user check O or A checkboxes, the EV textbox is enabled only for this form record NOT all the form records, when the user check I checkbox, the EV textbox is disabled only for this from record, NOT all the form records.
The problem is that whenver the user check, all the form records EV text box is affected by this action.
Is there any way to achieve this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe problem is that I have a recordset Rosters.

The ShftDay is distinct field.
I have continuous form mapped to this recordser.
This continuous form have 4 text boxes, each is mapped to one of the recordset fields.
The user can edit these fields.
What I want to do is when the user enter the value "Na" in one of A,B or C textbox, I want the backcolor property of this textbox to become pink.
What I face is that for example if I enter the "Na" value in the A textbox, all the cells of the A textbox are converted to pink. What I want is only the cell in the edited record, not all.

I have a subform in continuous mode which has a list of people. I have created an unbound field which has a dlookup into a telephone number table.
What I want to happen is for each person in the list to have their telephone number displayed (not recorded - just displayed) on the form alongside their name. On a single form this works fine, but on a continuous form it displays the same phone number on all the rows (presumably the first person in the lists number).
Can anybody advise how I can get the dlookup working for each record in the continous form.
Thanks in advance,
Adam.

I am building an application for my marketing dept. that will track their mailouts. So far I can handle it; however, they want a thumbnail displayed of each piece of creative. I can do this if they only wanted to see one record at a time, but they want all records w/in a certain date range and the pic that goes with it. I am currently storing the path to the image so not to gorge my db to explosion.
pic campaign_name start end mail_out #_pieces
pic campaign_name start end mail_out #_pieces
pic campaign_name start end mail_out #_pieces
pic campaign_name start end mail_out #_pieces
where pic is the thumbnail. I have built it with a continuous form so I can display all the records but I am up to change if needed.
I have read other posts and they all deal with single forms and the onCurrent event is not really working for me.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated!
