Hi, I am new to access and I have found important tricks in this forum. Thanks to everybody
Now, I am trying to use a query with multiple criteria. In particular it has to query a table that contains info about candidates tblCands using text boxes, check boxes etc etc present in a form.
First, it works correctly but if I close the form and re-run it, statements in query disappear.
Could someone indicate me what would be the problem?
Thanks in advance
Hi all
I am trying to give a new user access to the front end of a DB.
When I copy the FE from the server to the local C drive ( Windows XP)
the FE loses all its relationships and the user is not able to query anything.
I go back to the server and find that the FE is just fine on the file server.
I also tried running the FE from my PC ( Windows 2000 SP4) and it works fine.
Do any of you know what the issue could be.
I also checked to see that the new user has permissions on the folder on which the file is located on the server and she does...
Any thoughts on what the problem could be would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
Recently
I have noticed that the "warnings" in my access 200o database no longer pop up. As example, if I went to delete a table or record, I used to get a pop up warning from MS Access asking for confirmation. Now the record just deletes without a warning. This seems to be happening with other things too.
Any thoughts ???
Thanks

Well this is going to take a bit of explaining, because my colleagues and I are totally baffled.
I have an Access 2000 front end connected to a Sql production server. I went to make some changes to my forms and subforms, but I did not want to do it with the live data. So I made a copy of the database to my own Sql server on my desktop. So far so good . . . Now when I opened my main form, my subform appeared, but its controls were invisible--I still had not touched the code.
I looked at all the properties for my form and subforms and it is set to Visible and Display always. Now, even stranger, when I advanced my records, if the subform had data its controls would become visible, and then disappear again when I reached a record that had no data for the subform (the main form and the subform are bound to two seperate tables within my database, all the subform controls are bound as are the majority of the form's controls).
Then I went to the code. Nowhere do I change the Visible related properties within the form/subform code. I decided to put a Stop in the Form_Current code of the subform and see what happens as I advance from record to record. What happened was that when I reached a record with subform data present the stop would be read and I would toggle through the Form_Current code. When I would reach a record with no subform data, the Form_Current code would not be read as evidenced by there being no Stop action.
Anyone have an idea of what's going on? Something gets changed when I connect to my local SQL server. Even when I reconnect to the production server the problem remains. Its like some property changes, although I cannot find it, and it is changed permanently. The only property I play with by code is that I enable the controls of the subform when there is NO data in the subform, and I disable the controls when there is data. This code follows:
Private Sub Form_Current()
On Error GoTo Err_Form_Current
If Me!AssignedNumber = True Then
Me!AssignedNumber.Enabled = False
Me!txtWTNumber.Locked = True
Else
Me!AssignedNumber.Enabled = True
Me!txtWTNumber.Locked = False
End If
Exit_Form_Current:
Exit Sub
Err_Form_Current:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Form_Current
End Sub
Finally I tried to set Visible to true within my code for the individual controls, but that still did not overide the problem. I connect to my server via an ODBC connection to a .dsn.
Thanks in advance for bearing with me,
Tony
Sometimes when I send a copy of an Access 2003 application to a remote user, a stored procedure or function will disappear. What causes this, and how can I get the entire application over to the users?
Thanks in advance!
I use Access2007 under Windows 8.1 64 bits.Just ignore any message related to a splash form.The form will register revenues in the table TblLanc Receita sPJ. When either saving record input or closing the form, incomplete records must be eliminated from the table. When opening the form you should be able to see the unbound list of revenue inputs made. The list will show empty though because the last time I closed the form thru the button Close, table data disappears. Also, the same happens if I get into the form design mode to analyze the code and re-execute the form.
Please, click on the button Add to input a couple of revenue records thru the form to verify what I just said.I translated relevant input fields so the input should not be a problem. Fields named Quotation, Direct Purchase, and Contract, can be filled in with any data... just make sure only one of these fields per record be input, otherwise you'll get a pokayoke message. Save each input. After 2 or 3 record inputs, close the form and re-open it. Table will be empty. Redo and save new inputs. Go to the form design mode just because. Re-execute the form. Table will be empty again.
Another point is I want to click on a record of the unbound list and have the clicked record fields properly filled in the form. From that point I would decide if the record would be deleted or changed. The functionality of the entire code works but the selection on the list. In other words I do not understand why I am not able to fill in the form with the selected record fields. My code should do that but it does not.

Hello Access experts,
I am using MSAccess 2002. I have removed the tables and queries to reduce file size. I have set database password as "planning". In the form named "Form1" I have created a Shift-Key Enable/Disable button with password "SIMON". In Menu Starup, I have also disallowed Display Database Window, disallowed Built-in Toolbars and disallowed Toolbar/Menu Changes. Now I have problem because I cant unset the Security password and make changes in Startup.. because the Menu Tool/Security, Startup..etc have disappeared. How do I get them back again?
Thanks in advance.
hey, i hav seen a similar thread about this (i think bout a year ago or so) and i didnt no whether to continue it or start a new thread.Option boxes - Making items visible
that thread did not fully answer my question and after searchin around n finding nuthin i hav decided to ask
in my form i have the payment methods=> cash, cheque, credit. i did have these in a drop down menu, but i wasnt sure how to do what i wanted...which is based on the selection either make a couple of fields (credit card details etc) visible or invisible. so what i have done is changed the drop down list into an option group with radio buttons.
i currently have this coding
Code:Private Sub Frame_Click()If Me.Frame.Value = 3 ThenMe.CardHolder_Name.Visible = TrueMe.Credit_Card_Number.Visible = TrueMe.Expiry_Date.Visible = TrueMe.Type.Visible = TrueElseIf Me.Frame.Value = 2 ThenMe.CardHolder_Name.Visible = FalseMe.Credit_Card_Number.Visible = FalseMe.Expiry_Date.Visible = FalseMe.Type.Visible = FalseElseIf Me.Frame.Value = 1 ThenMe.CardHolder_Name.Visible = FalseMe.Credit_Card_Number.Visible = FalseMe.Expiry_Date.Visible = FalseMe.Type.Visible = FalseExit SubEnd IfEnd Sub
this seems to work although say if my first record has credit card selected, then all the fields are visible, but wen i move onto the next record which is cash or cheque...they are still visible until i reselect cash or credit again..(and vice versa)
i hope this makes sense :P
thanks
In a report there is a text box that disappears if certain data appears in a record. It is supposed to disappear but I cannot determine why it is disappearing and I need to fix the criteria that make it disappear.
The text box is unbound (the control source is ="Bonus Point Legend"), and there is not any code that refers to it, nor are there any references to it in a query (I can delete the text box and the report runs just fine). Interestingly, if I add a new text box and use the paint brush to format it based off the one in question, it also disappears and acts just like the one in question. But I can't find any code that even references a generic control and makes it invisible. The tag field is not in use either.
I have a query that's been working fine for years, however...the powers that be have requested a change. We need to track the lining owners in cars. We've recently gone to SQL on the back end (which I basically know NOTHING about) but I set up the new table, refreshed the connection, etc.
I can see the table fine and it says it has a primary key, auto numbers, etc. however, as you can see from the jpg below when I add the table to the query and link the id as in all the other tables, for some reason, this one makes all the data disappear when in datasheet view.If I delete the table from the query - it all comes back.
I seem to be having an issue with a split form I've been working on. I created this split form on Monday and it was working just fine but today, I have added a couple minor text boxes. Since then, I can view the form contents in Design View but when I switch to "Form View" or "Layout View", it's all gone minus the logo in the top left corner and the title for the split form.

why "allow value list edits" button disappear when "allow full menus" disabled?
Is there a way to show "allow value list edits" button when "allow full menus" disabled?
So I am creating a Complaint Tracking Database with Access 2013. In my 'complaint entry form' I have added to ability to "Open" and "Close" the complaint. While the complaint is open the user is able to enter/edit data in the complaint (new or old). When the complaint is "Closed" (done so with a button on the form that prompts the user to enter a date of their choice) the user should not be able to enter/edit data in the given complaint. In my original thinking, I placed checks on various events (on load, after update, on click) that checked to see if the current complaint had a date in the "Close date" field.
If the close date field was null then that meant that the complaint was open and the the controls would NOT be locked. If the close date field was NOT null (i.e. a date was present) then the complaint was closed and the main form fields were locked but the data was still viewable and unless they "re-opened" the complaint they could not change the data.
Now, in the complaint entry form, I have a subform that acts as a action tracker that is used by the user to keep track of the actions taken on the complaint (i.e. they requested documentation from such and such on this date..etc). My problem through all of this is upon closing the complaint and locking the main form controls, my subforms data just vanishes! At first I figured the problem might be with the linking of master and child fields, so I made sure that I left the ID in the main form unlocked when I loop through my controls during the locking process. This did not solve my problem. Code below:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim ctl As Control
If Not IsNull(Me.close_date) Then
Me.FormHeader.Visible = True
Me.btnClosed.Enabled = False
Me.btnOpen.Enabled = True
For Each ctl In Me.Controls
[Code] .....
In Access 2010 I have a Data Entry Form on which I have an unbound textbox in the header that the user can put a default date in. In the body of the form is a bound textbox that records the date and the default value is set as =defaultdatestat (obviously the name of the box in the header).
Problem: The default date shows up perfectly until a value is put in any of the other text boxes.
For further info : If you put values in text boxes default value disappears; if you then push escape the default value reappears when the values in the text boxes disappear.
How Mark disappear field data based on field data last.
Example:I have a field type in the name and on behalf of another field No.
In the case of the Type-B data is deleted Number field, which is before the character.
I have set up a database that stores actions (i.e jobs). In the table; two of the fields are...'required completion date' and 'actual completion date'. I wish to lookup, by using a query, all of the open actions (those which havent yet been complete (i.e the 'actual completion date' is null)) and then later on all those which are overdue (i.e the 'actual completion date' is null And the 'required completion date' <today....this being the criteria for an overdue action).
However, I have used a form which has a combo box which contains the values open and overdue. When a selection has been made I want a form to display with the results depending on the selection that has been made. I am capable of creating a form based on a query, but am unsure of how to construct the query with the correct criteria based on the option that is selected from the form.
Any help would gratefully be appreciated. Thanks
I created a form that allows the user to choose the criteria that they want to see on a report using =Forms!formname!controlname in my query. It works great but I want to also allow the user to choose nothing and return all records instead of limiting them to choose just one type of record. Is this possible? Before I created the form my query had the [Enter parameter] on one criteria line and [Enter parameter] Is Null on the next criteria line and that was working great for my use but I need to create a simple form for other users.

Hi all,
I was wondering if someone would be able to point me in the right direction for my problem. Basically i have a table which shows all of the products sales within a given period, my user currently has to pick out the sales manually of those sales which have been sold out.
His criteria is those products which have been sold out more than one time, been sold out for more than six hours and those sold out for more than 24 hours. Im struggling how to show the more that six hours and more than 24 hours in my criteria.
can anyone help? thanks in advance
I am trying to setup a query that will generate a report based on options selected on a form. The fields I am using in the table do not have data for every record. If the criteria in the query is left blank, I would like all records listed regardless of whether there is a value in that field. If a value is selected for the criteria, of course I would like only those records shown. I am testing this only on one field at present. Here is my criteria in the query:
Like "*" & [forms]![frmDischargeRptSelector]![cmbResType] & "*"
With the above criteria, if I do not select a value for the parameter, I will get all fields that have a value in them, but not the blank(null) fields. If I leave the Like "*" out of the criteria, then I get no records if I do not select anything for a parameter. If I add an or Null to this statement, I get all null records even if I select a value for the parameter.
I hope this makes sense.
