I currently have two forms: frmE_SAFind and frmE_SAOrder
frmE_SAFind shows results from a query including fields [txtIDPO] and [dtmDate]
Example:
IDPO Date
btnOpnFrm 6543 2/1/05
btnOpnFrm 5681 1/1/05
frmE_SAOrder shows order details including [txtIDPO] and [dtmDate]
I have a open form command button set up on [frmE_SAFind] that opens [frmE_SAOrder]. Is it possible for me to modify its properties so that when the open form command button is clicked, the order details in [frmE_SAOrder] will represent the order that the user is selecting via the btnOpnFrm command?
Example: If I click btnOpnFrm for 6543, [frmE_SAOrder] will show me PO 6543 details.
Hopefully I made myself clear enough to understand. Thanks for your help!
I am on Access 2007, and know very basic stuffs to create tables, queries, and form search. I have just successfully completed a search form filtered with a combobox. Also I have a built-in subform within the main form to display other results as well. The display results are based on one complex query (relational query). Now I need to add a command button that would take me to another form to update the current record found.Quick on the design:
- When I search a subject in a main form(subject lists in the combobox), it would populate results below in the main form and also subform would populate other results as well.
1. Add a command button so can take me to new form, but would need to have the current record populated.
2. Once updated, then how do I save it?
How do you make both the text and the icon visible on a command button? If the 'Picture' propery is set, I can't see the text.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I'd like to change the colour of the text in a command button when the user click the button, but for the text to return to it's original colour when the botton pops back up.
I'm assuming you use the following commands:
Private Sub cmdClose_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
*******CODE********
End Sub
Private Sub cmdClose_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
*******CODE********
End Sub
But I'm not sure as to how I would enter the correct code.
Any help would be appreciated,
Best Regards,
Aaron
When a command button is onfocus, how do I make it bold or a different color and when it's not onfocus to return to it's default format? I know that this is possible with text boxes but I don't know how to do it with command buttons.
Please help. Thank you!
I have 2 text boxes and 1 push button for each text box for input to table. When I click on 'SaveInput1' only Input1 is save onto the Table and when 'SaveInput2' is click only Input2 is save. I want each command button to save each input separately.
I know ACCESS have a SAVE RECORD function, but I do not want to use this because it will save the entire record all at once.
TextBox1 = Input1
TextBox2 = Input2
Commandbutton1 = SaveInput1
Commandbutton2 = SaveInput2
Hello,
i have an expiry date for my members and each year they need to renew it, so i would like to have a button that when clicked adds 1 year to the date.
I currently have this query
=DateAdd("yyyy",1,[Commenced Training])
as there membership will expire one year from their joining date.
this is currently shown for hte text box expiry date.
however i cannot work out how to make another one for the button so that when the button is pressed it adds another year and stores its.
the image shows my example
thanks

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to have command buttons on a form to advance the current recordset filter date back or forwards one day at a time on each click. Would go like if today was the 15th and I clicked it would go to the 16th and then to the 17th for the next click and so on. Just not sure if I should keep looking for a way to do this, so I figured I would ask some experts before putting more time in to this then I already have to no avail.

I am trying to filter a form by using two unbound text boxes that a user can enter in their criteria and then clicking a command button to filter the form using the criteria entered into the text boxes. My fields are as follows:
Bound Field: MondayD1
Unbound text box: txtMonday
Bound Field: SundayD7
Unbound text box: txtSunday
Command Button: cmdSelect
MondayD1 = txtMonday
SundayD7 = txtSunday
I have looked up several options using vb for the on click event of the command button but I either get an error message or the form shows up blank.
I am trying to figure out to have the current date populate in table field by using a button on a form and not having much luck.
I have a table with 2 date fields, a 'created' field and a 'received' field. I already have the date set to auto populate for the 'created' field but I don't want the 'received' field to populate until the employee has gone into the database to receive the work.
I know I could have the employee just enter the date, but i want to avoid any typos or people simply forgetting to do it.
Ideally I would love the button to enter the current date into the 'received' field and save the entry, but I fine it needs to be 2 seperate buttons.
Well the title says it all. I need to create a button to lock the info on the form so it can't be edited and at the same time insert the date. Any ideas?

View 13 Replies View RelatedI have a tabbed form from which the user can select a contact's record from a subform on the first tab, click a edit command button, and the unbound text boxes on the top of that tab populate. The user can then click the second tab with employment history which has blank unbound text boxes and another subform which is linked by the contact id to the first tab.
The user can select a record in the second tab, click a command button and the text boxes populate no problem. The problem comes when the user changes the contact on the first tab, and then tries to edit a record on the second tab. Then I get a run-time error '-2147352567 (80020009)' saying the value you entered isn't valid for this field. Why it would work the first time by not the second?

View 12 Replies View RelatedI have a form with two text boxes in which I would like to insert the current date automatically when the text box has got focus. Default value doesn't work because the current date may occur on two different days, and the default has to be null until the current date is inserted.
Can someone walk me through the process? Thank you.
Looking to create two command buttons or two keystrokes sets in an Access 2007 form that will allow me to place a current date and time in any allowable field where the Cursor is presently placed. Similar to what was in Access 2000, ctl: (for the current date) and ctl shift : (for the current time).
