Combo Not Accepting Selected Dropdown Item

Jun 5, 2005

:confused:

I have a frmServiceOrder form that has a "datasheet type" sfrmSOItem subform with a combo box that allows a user to select service order items...

Problem:
When I select a service order item in the dropdown, it doesnt place the item in the record...I have to select it a 2nd time in order to make it appear in the record. However, if I select the item by typing (i.e., via autofill) and hit the enter key, the item will populate in the record the 1st time.

I suspect it has something to do with my query joins. I hav played with various combinations and cant find a solution...

Any clues?

Thank you.

How Do I Show A Selected Item?

Dec 29, 2006

I have a main form with several continuous subforms on it. These subforms are based on a selection of fields of a complete and editable form, so these subforms are overview forms so to speak. Whenever a field of a certain record is clicked, the other subforms show the linked data for that record, whenever a field of a certain record is double clicked, the corresponding form opens so data can be edited.

I would like to show which record is selected (record selectors are not enabled) in the way you select text in any application in windows. So when record A (holding fields A1, A2, A3 and A4) is selected in any way, the text should be lit up as if struck with a text-marker pen.

How do I go about that?

It would really be nice, since there is a cascading effect of records going on in the main form, which can get a bit confusing if you have to or want to glimpse at which record is selected. So for ease of use, this feature would really be nice.

Save Columns Of Listbox Selected Item

Jul 23, 2007

Hi all,

Does anyone know how to get the columns of a listbox selected item and store it to a string? There is no multi-selection so it should be easier. I tried

Thanks alot

Modules & VBA :: Listview Control Selected Item?

Jan 30, 2015

In a form, I have a listview control bound to a TreeView control.

By default LV considers "selected" the first item on the list even if it is not highlighted.

In Form is a command button that performs an operation on the item selected, but to prevent accidental activation requires two tests:

1) the list is not empty

Code:

If LV.ListItems.Count = 0 Then Exit Sub

2) an item is actually highlighted.

How can I make the second test?

Modules & VBA :: Determine If Item From Listbox Is Selected

Jun 12, 2014

I am having trouble with a If statement. I am trying to save a record into a table when an item is Selected (highlighted blue) in a list box. Keep in mind that my listbox is set to multiple selections. I have the following code but sometimes it works and sometimes it doest.

The reason why I am trying to get this to work is because when a item is selected I will add it to the table and when an item is deselected I will delete it from a table. See my code and pictures I have attached :

Private Sub list_audits_Click()
Dim strsql As String
Dim list As String
Dim id As String
id = Me.User_ID.Value

[Code] ....

Queries :: Get Information From Selected Item Of ListBox

Nov 22, 2013

From a search form example I got from this forum I made the following:

A listBox which shows results as you type, using a query.

This listBox has 1 column, I need it that way.

What I need is to show the information from the selected item of the listBox on a textBox, getting this info from the results of the query.

I found 2 answers which I don't like:

1- =DLookUp("[Column]","[Query]") as source of textBox

This shows only information from the first row. So if you select the second result from the listBox, it still shows the first row.

2- =SearchResults.column(int) as source of textbox

It does not work, because listBox has only 1 column.

Automatically Inserting A Date When A Item Out Of A List Box Is Selected

Aug 28, 2003

I have a MS Access database, which contains three main tables. With these I have a completed table, which holds either Yes/No within it.

One of the tables, I have linked to the Completed table as a list box, which when a job has been completed, either yes or no can be selected.

But, what I want to happen, is, when the Yes is selected, I want Access to insert the date the 'Yes' was selected, so that the employee cannot lie about the date the job was completed.

Hope I have explained this in a good enough fashion.

I don't have a clue how to go about it, could anyone help.

Modules & VBA :: Enable Command Button When Item Selected From List Box

Oct 14, 2014

I have a simple listbox (single column, no multi-selection).I want to enable a command button when the user selects an item in the listbox / disable it if no items are selected.I'm using the AfterUpdate event of the listbox, as follows :

Code:

Private Sub lstOptions_AfterUpdate()
Select Case Me.lstOptions.ItemsSelected.Count
Case 0
Me.comConfirm.Enabled = False
Case Else
Me.comConfirm.Enabled = True
End Select
End Sub

But when I select an item from the listbox, and debug the code, the Count is always zero? Even though I can see the item selected??

Forms :: Access 2003 - Scroll To Selected Item On Multiselect Listbox

Sep 2, 2013

I've got a form with a multiselect listbox (extended) that holds a very long list of items (~90,000):

1 | Apple
2 | Orange
3 | Banana
...............
35313| Corn cob
...............

The user can select multiple items (non-sequential) on the listbox, say items 1 and 35313. I'd like the listbox to scroll (meaning display) to the currrently selected item, so that the user can see it while being processed.

I've seen stuff about property ListIndex, which does exactly that, but it's only useful when you have just ONE item selected (in a multiselect listbox apparently it deselects the rest of the items, so no point in using it, I guess, unless there's more to it!!).

So the key here is how to do the scrolling/display.

The code to loop through the listbox and process each selected item is attached:

Code:
Dim vItem As Variant
Dim Content as String
For Each vItem In Me.lst.ItemsSelected
'scroll to selected item ???
'processing of the selected item
Content = Me.lst.Column(1, vItem) 'copy the content to do sth with it
Me.lst.Selected(vItem) = False 'unselect the current item
Next vItem 'go to next selected item

how to scroll to the currently selected item? Mind that I need to go through the list of selected items to process them for further use (i.e, I need them selected).

Stopping A Dropdown On A Combo Box

Jan 4, 2005

Quick question, (and hopefully a quick and easy answer).

I have a check box and a combo box. If the check box is not checked and a user clicks on the combo box, I have a message box that pop ups and informs the user that he/she must click the check box first. However, after they ok the message box, my combo box shows it's dropdown list.

Is there a way to stop the dropdown from occurring when they click on the combo box?

Thanks in advance.

Forms :: Combo Box - Can Auto Dropdown To A Specific Row From Hidden ID

Apr 23, 2013

I have a combo box that I normally type the start of a Surname and it auto drops down from underlying database ID is now show in col count, only 1st two.

Surname Name ID
jones/k kelly 33333
smith/m max 12345
smith/m monty 98765
white/t tom 55555

smith/m will short list to the two above, I can mouse click or arrow down to the 2nd one Press enter & its knowa the corresponding ID (= surname.Column(2)) and goes to the correct record.

What I am trying to do, is from another part of my program, eg an incoming email with the corresponding Surname, Name & ID Automatically go to this main booking form, auto enter surname "smith/m" - which is fine, the list shortens but It goes to the first matching on the list, ie max.

Is there a way to get it to go to monty using the ID 98765 which is unique.

Perhaps an odd request but actually nice to book each time through this same main form, I actually also want it to do the same from incoming phone calls, It can get the unique ID ok but can see a way for the combo box to jump to the correct & only row from underlying register.

Bit worried about trying to change the underlying select statement that the combo seems to be based on, perhaps this is the way forward but not sure how to do this & don;t want to risk messing the most important & already functioning well normal entry style.

Reports :: Combo Box Won't Show Dropdown List In Header Area

Mar 28, 2013

I have a combo box in the header area. The record source, Bound Column are set correctly ( I know because I tested it on a form ). In this instance, the user would select from the dropdown list, the name of a member of staff, based on the click-event, and passing the Staff_ID to a variable, this would be used to filter a recordset/recordsource for the report. However, there is no dropdown ( or arrow on combo - so no name can be selected ) ?

Forms :: Data From Multiple Fields In Same Record In Combo Box Dropdown

Mar 12, 2013

Access 2010

I have a form bound to a table which has 20 (name)fields and 1 date per record. A user fills in this form first to indicate which people are present this day. I know it would be better to use 1 name per record but that would in this case not work since the form must show all names for that day before saving and closing.

I have a different form where I use 4 combo boxes and a date field. The values that can be selected in the combo boxes should come from the 20 names on the first form and with the same date as the other form. So only 4 people of the 20 indicated as present on that day can be selected to have performed some task.

I know how to select with a combo box from different records, but how would I do it from different fields in the same record? And then also for a particular date?

Constraining Combo Box Values Based On The Value Selected In Another Combo Box

Sep 7, 2006

Thanks in advance for your help.

I would like to set up rules/constraints such that the value selected in combo box A determines the available values in combo box B. For example, "Combo box A" is bound to the [PartnerType] field and "Combo box B" is bound to the [PartnerRole] field. Let's say that the two choices in Combo Box A are "LLC", "LP", and "Corporation". There are 5 possible choices in Combo Box B: "X", "Y", "Z", "Q", and "U". If a user selects "LP" in Combo Box A, I would like Combo Box B to only show choices "X" and "Y". And if a user selects "LLC", only choices "Y", "Z", "Q", and "U".

Similarly, I would like to set this up so that Combo Box B is not initially visible--it becomes visible when a user selects "LLC" or "LP". If a user selected "Corporation", Combo Box B would remain hidden.
