Hi all
Long time searcher, first time poster!
I have a subform which has loads of check boxes for each record but i want to suppress certain boxes depending on criteria in each record. I think i need to do a For..Each statement but, as my user name suggests, I'm buggered!.
Hi,
I build the WHERE clause in my form's record source dynamically, depending on the context in which the user opens the form. I can't put the WHERE predicates in the record source and refer to fields on another form, as the context will determine which predicates are required. So I have code like this:
Public gf_FormInstance As Form
Dim strSelect as String
:
Set gf_FormInstance = New Form_F_PerformanceSummary
:
gf_FormInstance.RecordSource = strSelect
gf_FormInstance.Refresh
gf_FormInstance.Visible = True
The problem is, the Set statement causes the New form instance to retrieve all records from the existing record source, slowing down the performance.
I'd like to find a trick to suppress the retrieval of records when the Set statement executes, and then allow them to retrieve when the Refresh statement executes.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Keith.
I've searched and can only find information setting the visible property when selections are made on an open form--I want to set the visible property when the form is opened depending on which avenue the user chooses from the navigation form.
I have a navigation form (Form A) and a second form with a subform (Form B). The user will choose from a combobox, either an existing record or a new record on Form A. On Form A there are two buttons, one that will take the user to the correct record on Form B for editing and one that will open to a new record on Form B. Once Form B is open, all controls will be blank (if a new record is chosen) or with certain controls prepopulated if an existing record is chosen.
What I want to do is to hide controls on the main form (not the subform) of Form B if the user chooses an existing record. Form A's buttons work correctly to open Form B right now. I want to be able to hide prepopulated controls on Form B if the user chooses an existing record from Form A.
Here's the code I'm using to open Form B to an existing record. I'd like to set the visible property here if at all possible.
NOTE: "Form A" and "Form B" are not the actual names of my forms--it's just easier for illustration purposes here in my question.
Private Sub cmdAddLogEntry_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "Form B", acNormal, , "Activity_ID = " & Me.cboINum
DoCmd.Close acForm, "Form A", acSaveYes
End Sub
Hello all:
Code:
Dim rs as object
Set rs = Me!RecordSet.Clone
rs.Find first "[Student_ID]='" & Me![Combo134] & "'"
Me.Bokmark=rs.Bookmark
If Me! Major_CD = "F16" or "616" or "611"
msgbox "MUST COMPLETE SURVEY"
End if
End sub
A student ID number is entered into a combobox and it returns name, Major_CD(Major Code) and Degree type.
If the major code is "F16" or "616", a message is displayed.
How do I suppress this messagebox the the student has a different major code? In other words, there are students in the database with other major codes that are 111, 121, 363. I would like for the other major codes to NOT display a message box. Right now, it displays a messagebox for everyone.
Any ideas?
Many, many thanks

I have four fields in a Table. They are all four date fields. I want to do a query and see information in all four fields, but I only want to see the information if it is before a certain date.
So far I have tried this:
<Date().
This works but it shows all four fields even if it is after this date. How can I suppress the fields to appear blank if the date is not before today's date?
I have a report that is linked to a query... lets say my query returns no records the report comes up with a whole bunch of #Errors on it. How do i prevent this from happening?
thanks

View 6 Replies View RelatedWe use an Access database to review multiple banking regulations on a sample of loans each month. I have reports set up to show the findings of different requirements. Each field is populated with a "Yes" "No" "N/A" or is left blank depending on the loan characteristics.
My queries pull regulatory errors if any of the fields = "No" and the reports show all regulatory requirements for that loan. For example, if the loan has real estate as collateral and no flood determination was ran prior to loan closing, they would select "No" from the combobox and it populates the field. All questions dealing with the flood laws populate on the report.
[U]If I want to show ONLY the fields that say "No" with the corresponding label, how do I get all fields that say "Yes" "N/A" or are blank to disappear, the corresponding lable to disappear, and the data to "shrink up" so there is not a lot of blank space?
Thanks for all of your help!

I need to suppress/hide a blank row on a subform.
The Main form is based on a table, contains Site Header information
The Subform is based on another table containing Sample Details records
Site Header table to Sample Details table relation ship is one-to-many,
with two key fields SiteID and SiteVisitDate
The Form/SubForm is linked by SiteID, SiteVisitDate
The form adds one record to the Site Header Table.
Then adds mutliple records to the Sample Details table for that SiteID.
Some fields are populated with a script, while others are populated by user input
An empty/blank/new row always appears on the subform before & after the Sample Details are added. The blank row Before new records are added is not a problem but when it appears after new records are added is a pain
I've tried CanShrink etc,
Any help appreciated
Cheers,

When i try to insert data into a backend Oracle table (with ODBC) using a form, (i use docmd.runsql "insert....") Access gives me a message like"You are trying to append 1 row to the table are you sure you want to append?"
i want to suppress this message as i have to insert into 2 tables and delete from 3 tables when the user enters some data in the form, so it asks the user five times (say 2 times for insert and 3 times for delete..) when it inserts or deletes each table. the user doesnt want this to click every time when they do that...
how do i suppress these messages, is it Access-specific or oracle specific?
I am not able to do this..!
is this any kind of exception that i have to put in??
Thanks for all ur help!!
How does one suppress printing of a field when the field contains a value (i.e. a date).
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a button on a form that appends data to a table. When I click the button, I get 2 warnings:
1) "You are about to append 1 row"
2) "Microsoft Access can't append all the record in the append query."
I know I can use docmd.setwarnings = false then set back to true, but I'm only interested in suppressing the 1st warning, and I want the user to see the second warning.
Is there any way to suppress the 1st warning and display the 2nd?
I have a report that calls a subreport. In most instances, the subreport will have no data and I won't want to show the subreport. I've tried various ways to deal with this:
1) Make the subreport property on the main report the minimum height and set CanGrow = Yes
2) Use the Report_NoData event on the subreport and add the code 'Cancel = 1'
3) Make all the fields on the subreport the minimum height and set CanGrow = Yes
None of these seem to work. I don't have any headings on the subreport, so the only price I'm paying is adding a gap onto the main report the size of one detail line of the subreport. Still, it leaves the report lacking professional quality.
Hi,
I have a table with 400,000 (approx) records in the following format:
a(PK:AutoNum) - b(text)-c(text)-d(Num)-e(text) - f (text - unique/random)
A B C D E F
1 - 6767 - P2 - 1 - 24/992 - 34341212
2 - 6767 - P2 - 1 - 24/993 - 87657483

9 - 6767 - P2 - 2 - 25/004 - 62536475
I need to create a new field in a query that acts like an autonumber, that resets based on an increase in field (d).
ie:
1 - 6767 - P2 - 1 - 24/992 - 34341212 - 1
2 - 6767 - P2 - 1 - 24/993 - 87657483 - 2
3 - 6767 - P2 - 1 - 24/995 - 98764536 - 3
4 - 6767 - P2 - 2 - 24/996 - 87543297 - 1
5 - 6767 - P2 - 2 - 24/998 - 98674635 - 2
6 - 6767 - P2 - 2 - 24/999 - 34546576 - 3
7 - 6767 - P2 - 2 - 25/001 - 98768547 - 4
8 - 6767 - P2 - 2 - 25/002 - 46576897 - 5
9 - 6767 - P2 - 2 - 25/004 - 62536475 - 6
I initially thought I could make an IIF expression that basically says: if [d] in this row is the same as [d] in the previous row then add 1 to the previous record [new number], otherwise, enter 1 in this record [new number] (thereby resetting it)....
I have searched the forums for 'numbered sequences' (amongst other things), and it appears that either the Dcount or Dmax function appear to be the solution, but I'm having some trouble applying it to this problem. I was hoping someone can help me through it.

I am trying to enter an experssion into the grid for age groups. The result will be a text value based on the value in a column named Age. There are three groups, '<18', '18-30', and '31+'. I tried using the following but the result that is returned is #Error.
age_grp: Switch([age]<18,'<18',[age]>=18 And [age]<31,'18 -30',[age]>30,'31+')
Do I have the syntax wrong? or maybe I'm going about it completely wrong.
I have also tried a nested iif statement Age2:= iif([age]<18,'<18', iif([age] >=18 And < 31, '18-30'), iif([age] >30, '31+')). I get the same error message.
This worked for displaying the value on a report =IIf([age]>=18 And [age]<=30,"18-30",'31+'). However, I need to sort and group by the value so I can count the number in each group, so I wanted to put it into a query.
Thanks,

Hi All,
I have built a code database where right now I display my sample code in a textbox on my main form. I was hoping to replace the text box with a Rich Text Box. I could then format the code to sort of match what would be shown in the VB/VBA IDE.
I know the Rich Text Box was disabled in Access 2003 for security reasons. I also know that there is another free RTF control. I was hoping to find out how Microsoft intended for us to replace the Rich Text Box. I could use a Web Browser Control but I was not sure of the best way to add this to my form and then feed it the data that was originally bound to the text box.
Thanks for any insight you would be able to provide.

How can I suppress the warnings that Excel displays when saving the text file?
These are the messages displayed when saving the file as text:
"The file already exists. Do you want to replace the existing file?" RESPONSE: Yes
"myfile.xls may contain features not compatible with Text..." RESPONSE: Yes
These are the messages displayed when closing the file:
"Do you want to save the changes you made?" RESPONSE: Yes or No - can enter either as no further changes have been made
"The file already exists. Do you want to replace the existing file?" RESPONSE: Yes or No - can enter either as no further changes have been made

I need to use an unbound text control to return me a value if a field is populated else "Local" if the field is not populated.
Can anyone tell me if this is possible and show me the syntax if it is.

I am trying to write an expression that calculates a new field in a query. The new field is simply recoding values from another field (survey question responses) using IIf statements. This new field, let's call it RecodedResponse, will eventually be summed in a totals query to get the total score on that survey for each participant. Each record is a question response and there are multiple records for each participant (16 items on this particular survey). The problem is that for 2 of the questions on this 16 item survey, the responses are supposed to be eventually combined and recoded based on each other. So, my question is:
Is there a way to do a conditional expression where the result from the previous record is used? Or do I need to first do a crosstab query so that all the responses for one participant are on one line?
I am pretty sure I can do a workaround to make it work, probably doing a crosstab, then recoding in another query based on the crosstab, but it would be cleaner (I think) to do this some other way. Any ideas? Or is this too vague?
Thanks,
Liz
Is there a way to select a query field based on conditions? There is a table at work that I need to use for my reporting in which the field names are the months of the year. Since my report is monthly for that specific month only, I have to change my field in the query every single month. I would like to be able to put in some type of code that will automatically select the proper month field.
Is this possible?
Thanks! :)
I work for a doctor, and I am creating a database to assist with surgery scheduling. There are a lot of pieces and parts to this process, and I am building a "bird's eye view" of tasks to be completed, such as "Notified OR," "Sent Surgery Packet," and "Scheduled Post-Op Appt." Each one of these fields has a lookup attached to it with three choices: "Yes," "No," and "Not Needed."
What I want is for the drop-down box with the three choices to be (a) automatically defaulted to "No," (b) immediately turn red if "No" is displayed or immediately turn green if "Yes" or "Not Needed" is displayed. In this way, the goal for our scheduler will be to get all the drop-downs to turn green (an easy visual cue that the patient is ready for surgery) by the date of the procedure.
How do I suppress the numerical values from being displayed on the "yes/no" check boxes when a user clicks directly in the field, instead of clicking the arrowhead as they should?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a databse of bird ringing (banding) which I have turned into an encouter history by using the pivot table capability in MS Access. Example attached.
For each animal, identified by a ring number in column B, there is a set of "encounters" over time. A blank in a date column indicates that the animal was not seen or captures in that year. A number in the column indicates that it was seen or captured n times.
To format these data correctly for subsequent surival probability analysis, I need to replace all of the blanks, in each of the "year" columns with a 0 and anything that isn't blank (e.g. 1, 2 or 3) with 1. So, I need columns F to L to look like C to D.
It was simple enough to do this one column at a time...
UPDATE [Capture history intermediate] SET [Capture history intermediate].[1971] = "0"
WHERE ((([Capture history intermediate].[1971]) Is Null))
But I have a lot of data, spanning 40 years (i.e. 40 columns) and I will probably have to do this conversion many times as I work on sub-sets of my master database.
So, question is, is there a short-cut way to avoid having to create 40 different queries and run each one seperately?
