Font Type In Form Changes When Change Font Colour

Aug 1, 2014

I am experiencing a problem in MS Access 2013. I have a form which was working just fine until now. It has form labels in Calibri font and their font colour is one shade lighter than black. Today, I changed the font colour of the form labels to be Automatic - black (shows as 'Text 1' colour in the form properties). I did this in Design view.

I find that when I switch to layout view, the font of the labels appears as Century Gothic. This is the font that appears in the Form view. So while the font colour is correctly changed, the font name is not what I had set in the Design view. When I go back to the Design view, and change the font colour back to the original colour which was one shade lighter than black (Text 1, Lighter 50%), the font is correct in the Layout view and the Form view (Calibri).

So it seems that there is some sort of binding between the font colour (black) and the font name (Century Gothic). When I change the font colour, the font also changes. When I restore the original colour (one shade lighter than black), the font Calibri is correctly retained.

Reports :: Change Font Color Based On True / False Value Of Another Field

Jun 28, 2013

In access report, I'm trying to change color of text in specific records based on the true/false value in another record. Works in forms using conditional formatting, but won't seem to work in a report.

Here's what works in forms : IIf([2009 Symposium]=true, forecolor=255 ....this changes the records to red.

But using the same expression in a report doesn't change the text color.

Change Value In Query From Command Button Based On Selection In Combo Box?

Jun 3, 2015

I have a dashboard-style form that has a list box with tasks connected to a query with line items of those tasks.

I have another query that will only show the line item selected from the list box. This means the query will only have one line item.

I want to have a command button below the list box that, when clicked, will modify the solo item in the second query to change a yes/no field from no to yes.

How can I accomplish this? Also, how can I make a button that deletes the selected line item?

Forms :: Change Records Source And Run Query - Onclick Event Of Command Button

Apr 8, 2013

I have a tabbed form in a navigation form with a chart on it. The records source of the chart is a query. The query runs when you click the tab and takes a long time. I changed the Row Source of chart to "" and that eliminates the query running on form load. I've read many posts on changing that row source when a command button is clicked. I tried

Code:
Me!Suspend_Trending_Dashboard![chart].RecordSource = suspend_trend_CHART

in the onclick event of the command button. This doesn't work. I've tried many variations of the syntax. I don't know if I have to tell the query to run after the row source is changed.

On a side note, the query criteria is based on beginning and end dates entered into text boxes on the form. This all works if the query loads when the form is opened.

Changing Command Button Text Colour.

Jun 30, 2006

Hi 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

How To Input Text Via Dedicated Command Button

Sep 20, 2011

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

Forms :: Filter Form With Two Text Boxes / Command Button?

Mar 22, 2013

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.

Forms :: Command Button To Populate Unbound Text Boxes From Subform Only Works Once

May 22, 2015

I 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?

Change The Font Colour For The Whole Form?

Jan 17, 2006

I've been working on a database for quite a while now, and i've now given it out for testing, and i've come across a little problem. One of the users is colour blind, and the colour theme i've used throughout this database is causing him problems.

I have a function that can single him out when he logs in, question is, is there a way i can change the font colour for the whole database in one go through code??

I have around 12 forms with many controls and labels, i'm kind of hoping i don't have to name each control and label separately to change the font colour.

Please tell me that there’s some clever piece of code that can change the font colour on a form in one hit…..


Regards

Darren.

Updating Field By Command Button

Oct 22, 2006

Hi all

I have searched the forums and tried various options but I get an error message about the syntax.

The button is to run a SQL query to update a field by calculating on the value of a another field on the form. The query is
DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE BatchPayments SET BatchPayments.[GST Amount] = (BatchPayments.[Net Amount]*0.1) WHERE BatchPayments.BatchPaymentsID=" & Me.BatchPaymentsID&";"


The error message is a compile error where it is expecting a list separator or ).

Probably simple but it has got me beat.

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards
