Hi,
I've a unbound combox field in main form, which upon select the subform should display the information. I tried this code but it gives me an error :
Dim strSQLSF As String
strSQLSF = " SELECT * FROM UT_table_EOM_UT "
strSQLSF = strSQLSF & " WHERE UT_Table_EOM_UT.Expr7 = '" & UTEOM_SEL & "'"
Me.UT_Table_EOM_UT_subform.Form.RecordSource = strSQLSF
Me.Requery
Run-time error 2001
You canceled the previous operations
I ve searched these forums but cant for the life of me find the answer althought there are a lot of posts on combo box filters.
I have MainForm based on tblStaff. I have SubForm based on tblTimesheet.
They are linked by StaffID.
The user selects a Project from ProjectID in the Subform which is filtered to only show Projects assigned to that user. This is done by filtering the combo box by StaffID from the MainForm. Works no problem.
The problem i have is in the next combobox which displays the potential activities for the user. As there are about 80 potential activities i want to filter this based on the Project Role. There are only 5 project roles. I can refer to the project role in either the SubForm query or the ProjectID combobox query but it doesnt work.
I hope this is coherent. Could anyone suggest some code or query parameters for this!?? I'm not an idiot but im beginning to wonder.
Thanks in advance
Hello,
I have a simple question with an answer that hides relentlessly from me. I have a combo box on the main form called cboProjects. I also have a subform called SubProjectsDetails. I'm trying to get it to where if a user selects a project from the combo box, the details show up in the subform. The relationships are good and working, and if I add a Find Record button on the form, that works as well. I just don't know the code to dynamically populate the subform with combo box values.
Anyone have any tips?
Thanks
Hi,
In MS Access, the form,
I make one combox, I want anybody input the value by dropdown list, they cannot input the value by typing in keyboard.
How can I lock to enter the value by typing, but they can input it by dropdown list.
Because, if I lock the field, then we never enter the value, if no lock, then we can enter it either dropdown list option or type in keyboard.
I just want to make dropdown list option to enter the value.
Please let me know, thanks.

Hi
I have a combo box to select a record on a form.
I would like then record to lock once it is selected via the combox box and the combo box to clear.
If a records is slected again from the combo box it will then show the new record and lock it again.
The problem is users are sometimes using the mouse button to scroll and moving to a different records by accident.
Thanks

I have a form, a couple of comboboxes and text boxes on it. When these are filled out, the SQL of a query is changed using these parameters.
There are three subforms on the form, all pivot charts, all based on the query being changed.
The goal would be to update all three according to the user-given parameters.
Right now the subforms only update if I close and open the form, which is probably not the best solution, since it's too slow.
I've also tried to requery and refresh them, with no result.
Then I tried to overwrite the recordsource of the subforms with the same text that was originally there. This got them to refresh their data, but then all of the charts disappeared and had to be built again, so this is a no go too.
I have two subforms on a main form. Both use similar queries and nearly the same set of records and PK. The first subform is for data entry and the 2nd subform is a continuous form that lists the entries in order that are made from the 1st Subform. (for entering in vacation days and appointments)
The continuous form cannot be edited, it is to be a list for viewing the information only.
I have an edit button next to each record on the continuous form. When the button is clicked, I want it to take the 1st subform to that specific record as well (same PK), so the information can be edited there.
I cannot figure out how to get the 1st subform to go to the record on the continuous form when the button next to that record is clicked on the continuous form.
I tried the DoCmdSearch for record and just keep getting object is not open errors.
2 Subform problems
I have a data entry subform that is only supposed to show an empty record ready to be populated, and a display records subform that is supposed to show all the records. The subforms are both on the same tab of a tab control on my main form.
Problem 1:
The data entry subform shows all the records rather than a blank record. Something on my main form is causing it to show the records when it should not. Any ideas? The Data Entry is set to Yes.
To try to isolate the problem, I created a new form and added the subform to it where it behaves properly:confused:
I then added Me.DataEntry = True to the form open to see if that would solve my problem but it still sets the data entry to no.
If I have the properties box open when in form view of my main form, I can set the data entry to Yes and it works fine until I move to the next record of the main form when it resets to no. Teraing my hair out here.:mad:
My final attempt was to search the entire project to see if there is a "DataEntry = False" somewhere but there isn't. What is setting this property? Any ideas where I should look?
Problem 2:
After entering data in the first subform (data entry form), I want to re-query the second subform but I just can't get the syntax right. I have wrestled with the "Syntax for subs" document downloaded from http://www.mvps.org/access/forms/frm0031.htm (Microsoft MVP site) but to no avail.
My main form is called fdlgPrjDetails, the data entry is via fsubPrjCommentsUsersDataEntry and the subform I wish to requery is fsubPrjCommentsUsers.
None of the attempts below worked giving a cannot find control error.
Private Sub Form_AfterUpdate()
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
Me.Requery
'Me!fsubPrjCommentsUsers.Requery
'Me!fsubPrjCommentsUsers.Form.RecordSource.Requery
'DoCmd.Requery ([fsubPrjCommentsUsers])
'DoCmd.Requery [fsubPrjCommentsUsers]
ExitHere:
Exit Sub
ErrHandler:
MsgBox Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description & Chr(13) _
& Chr(13) & "Error in fsubPrjCommentsUsersDataEntry: Err 003"
Resume ExitHere
End Sub
Any Ideas?
Both problems have me stumped so I'll be grateful to anybody with a scoobie on this.:)
im having problems getting a subform to calculate another subform's total and display it as it keeps coming up with the #NAME?.Basically my database is like this
tblCustomer
- tblOrders
- tblItems
and this is displayed on a form. so you can flick through clients, then flick through the orders and its broken down into the items inside each order.i have seen many answers that are only about calculating something on a subform and displaying on a form but this does not work when displaying on a 'parent' subform. the form structure looks like this
frmCustomers
- sFrmCustomerItems
- sFrmCustomerOrders
i have a calculated control textbox in the footer of sFrmCustomerOrders with sums up all the prices using =sum([Price])and in my sFrmCustomerItems, i have a field called Amount (the total amount of all the items) and the Control Source formula i was using was =[Forms]![sFrmCustomerOrders]![sFrmCustomerItems]![txtTotalPrice] but i get a #NAME? error.
I didn't know that Access is supposed to only have 2 subform deep. On my form, I have three subform deep. However, the master form is unbound, not linked to subforms, and nothing more than a container for tab pages which contains their own subforms and has no code directly associated with data. There is a code to move subform to new record when tabs changes, but that's all.
Does that mean there is really only two subforms deep from the topmost form on the tab page or the subform depth has been exceeded whether the master form has no role in data transaction?
I almost have this form done.
I have a form with a combo box, and 2 subforms from it. When you select in the combo box (Group), it brings up the choices (Sections) for that group in a subform. Then there is another subform, that is supposed to bring up a series of questions that are related to the section that has been selected. The question field has a drop down to a list table, that has all the questions. Once the question has been selected, it stores in a Master table. The relationship is there. If you try to select any questions that do not pertain to the section, it gives you an error message.
What I need it to do, is when the section is selected, filter out the questions that pertain to that section, and have those questions be the only ones available in the drop-down list to choose.
I know that I need to have an After Update code once the section has been selected, but not sure how the coding should be.
I hope that someone can help with this!

i have a form with 2 subforms. when the user selects a record in subform one. the date of that record filters subform 2. in the source query of subform 2 i have this under criteria
Code:
[Forms]![frmeventbuild]![frmBUILD]![EVENT_DATE]
I am having trouble figuring out the method to automatically update some fields in SubForm from 2 other SubForms.I have attached 2 pics, the first GradeEntry1 shows what the tblTopic_Class_Grade form looks like after I manually enter everything into it. GradeEntry2 is what the form looks like when I fill out the Form starting at the top.
I'd like the tblTopics_Class_Grade form auto-populate the TrainingClassID (it currently does this), TopicClassID, StudentID, TrainingTopicID based off the entry from the above forms.My end goal is that I need to have a grade for each student on each training topic for each class. Like:
Class1-Student1-Topic1-GradeX
Class1-Student1-Topic2-GradeX
Class1-Student2-Topic1-GradeX
Class1-Student2-Topic1-GradeX
I have two sub forms on a main form.Subform 1 displays information which comes from a query, filtered using two combo boxes on the same form.The active record on the data sheet has two field values output to hidden text boxes on the form.
These text boxes then provide the values used for the query displayed on the 2nd sub form.When I highlight a new record in subform 1, the text box values change, but the values in sub form 2 do no.Which would be the best method to use to get this to requery?
All I am trying to do is get a subform to requery after choosing a name from a combobox on the subform itself, thus updating the records on the subform. The main form name is "BasicTestOneF" the subform name is "ICminiBasicF" and the combobox name is "Combo4"
I have the combobox requery on After Update, but I still get the "Enter Parameter Value" popup. I've spent the last hour and a half just trying to get this simple thing to work and have gone through I don't know how many sites and forum posts, tried every combination of VBA code I've found, and I still can't get it to work.
The forms in the code are subforms on a TabControl on a main form.
I have this code which needs to add together only the areas [Area] of records with a FloorNumber field value of 1 or 2 or 3 or 4.
At the moment the code works for one entry of 1 in the form frmRoomDetails. I'm guessing i need For Next or something like that but i don't know and also unsure of how to code it.
Private Sub FloorNumber_AfterUpdate()
If [Forms]![frmSiteDetails]![frmRoomDetails].[Form]![FloorNumber] = 1 Then
[Forms]![frmSiteDetails]![frmFloorsDetails].[Form]![Text8].Value = [Forms]![frmSiteDetails]![frmRoomDetails].[Form]![Area]
End If
End Sub
I have a main form that has two subforms, subform1 and subform2, both connected to the main form. When I enter data into a field in subform1 I want subform2 to requery and update to show the calculated results from the new or changed data in subform1.
I found that if I do a refresh it works when changing the data but not when entering a new line of data in subform1. I tried some code in the after update field of on subform1, but cannot seem to get anything to work.
Me.[subform2].Form.Requery
Does not work. It errors and says it cannot recognize subform2 as a field. I have tried a field name on subform2 but I still got the same error.
I have a subform within a main from which switches by entry. The subform is a datasheet. I have two dropdowns in the datasheet and I want to limit one off of the other. I keep getting a prompt. The prompt is Forms!CLTS Subform!Environment. To my understanding it looks like it can't find Environment. Does anyone know the proper format.
This is my code for the second drop down in the subform.
Also special note Environment is what I am referencing to and it also is in the subform.
SELECT PackageName.PackageNameID, PackageName.PackageName, PackageName.EnvironmentID
FROM PackageName
WHERE (((PackageName.EnvironmentID)=[Forms]![CLTS Subform]![Environment]))
ORDER BY PackageName.PackageName;
I have a main form which has a subform control in it. when the main form is opened the sub form control contains a list of events in a sub form (a summary view), for the person selected in the main form.
I want to change the subform to a different one which shows the whole event when i click in a field on the subform, based on the event i clicked in. ( i can do it by opening a new form but not with a new subform)
I can make the form change using the following code:
Private Sub Notes_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
Me.Parent.subformhere.SourceObject = "eventsfullrecord"
End Sub
What code do i need to make it open to the record i clicked in the summary form, rather than just opening to the first record every time?
Not very good at passing recordsets
Thank you
I have a form with four unlinked sub forms on - I am hoping to
1) add a value from one subform to another and more importantly
2) update 1 subform when the other is amended...how exactly do I reference subform 2 from subform1.
I have tried me.parent!form2 and forms!mainform!form2.requery etc but can't get it right
I often move sub forms up and down within a form using something like.
Code:
forms!MyMainForm!MySubform.form.top = 500
However, I am having trouble moving a subform within a subform of a form.
Code:
Forms!MyMainForm!!MySubform!MySubformSubForm.form.top = 500
On a main form i have a continuous subform listing Jobs.
On the Click Event i want to display the personnel and equipment separately in two additional subforms linked to the Job i have clicked on by JobID.
I have tried all sorts of references and currently have this:-
Forms!PersonnelAndEquipmentMovementFrm.PerEquipMov Jobs.JobID = Form!EmployeeSubform.JobID.Text
Which does not work?
I use to Navigation form called "frmMain" and it's subform is "Transactions" and "frmTransactionsDetail". I just want to pass value from a field in "Transactions" Subform to other field in "TransactionsDetail" Subform by command button with vba syntax.
And Other one thing I want that, when I click a button Subform will refresh with vba syntax. How to refer.
