This has to be simple, but the solution eludes me.
I have a database that works really weel, but I need to do some tweaking to the toolbars to "grey out" the "sort ascending" and "sort descending" icons so that hte users do not mess with those and change how the recoerds display.
There has to be an easy way to disable those two buttons or an alternate way to ensure that the form basically ignores them.
To remove the file button from access. however the more commands button in the quick access toolbar renders this method pointless unless i can remove the more commands button. How to remove the "customise quick access" button or failing that how to remove the more commands button?
Using Access 2010.I purposely disabled the Access Objects when opening my database for added security. This works.
The problem I'm having is when I use the print button (access macro) on one of my forms, as soon as i click the button, the "all access objects" window opens on the left side navigation. This window shows all of my tables, forms, queires..etc.Is there a setting that will permanately stop this from opening?
If (Me.cboStatus.Value = "Approved" Or Me.cboStatus.Value = "Approved as Noted" Or IsNull(Me.cboStatus) Or Me.RecordsetClone.RecordCount > Me.CurrentRecord) Then Me.cmdNew.Enabled = False Else Me.cmdNew.Enabled = True End If
End Sub
The navigation buttons work flawlessly but the cmdNew button still is enabled when it shouldn't be. THe idea is that is will be disabled if:
-current record is not the last record -cbostatus is blank(null) -cbostatus is "approved" -cbostatus is "approved as noted"
The only code that seems to work is the "me.recordsetclone.recordcount > Me.currentrecord" .
Am I going about this the wrong way? How can I check what is in the cbostatus box and have the cmdnew button enabled/disabled based on its value.
I have a command button which will work on a specified date of every year. After the user clicks it once (which will carry out calculations), I want this button to be disabled so that it is not available for second click. Is it possible?
does anyone have any idea on how to disable a button after the event has been run? I want to give the user a few options on a form. When one is depressed i would like that option not to be available any more.
I tried forms![frmmbiinfo]![command10].enabled = false
but i guess i need to refreash the page somehow. All i keep getting is an error saying "Object doesnt support this proerty or method"
is there a way to disable the new record option (>*) at the bottom of the form...i want my users to be able to search all records through the form sometimes, but not add any new ones accidentally (or intentionally) while doing so. :confused:
I was wondering if there is a way to disable a command button after it has been clicked for a small period of time. (lets say 1 second) stopping the user from any happy clicking. (fast repetitive clicks)
This is to do with viewing embedded images, i can explain more if required.
I have a database that uses a switchboard with a close button that runs several instructions before it exits. The problem is that some users have access to the database window and I need to prevent them from closing the database by hitting the X in the upper right.
I have a form. and it has three buttons. Such as Submit, Reject, Under Observation.
I want : 1) If i click SUBMIT button it will be disable and other two buttons REJECT and UNDER OBSERVATION will be enable 2) If i click REJECT button it will be disable and other two buttons SUBMIT and UNDER OBSERVATION will be enable 3) If i click UNDER OBSERVATION button it will be disable and other two buttons SUBMIT and REJECT will be enable
Objective: After each field in my form is completed, I want my NewSave button to be enabled.
Problem: Created an if/then code that disables the button but never re enables it after conditions are met
Code:
Private Sub Form_Current() Dim promptmsg As Long If IsNull(Me.ContractValue) = False And IsNull(Me.ContractNumber) = False And IsNull(Me.InvoiceDate) = False Then Me!NewSave_Button.Enable = True
I am going round in circles here; I have a form which has certain text fields that need to be populated before a user can click a command button named 'Record Movement' that opens up another form. What I want to do is disable the 'Record Movement' button until these fields are populated. I am using Access 2010.
I'm trying to have a button in a form that, when clicked, will time stamp a text box already formatted for time. But once the text box is filled with a time, the button then disables itself for that record.
If I switch to another record where the text box is empty, the button will enable itself without closing the form, but obviously re-disable itself if I go to a record the text box is filled.
I'm sure I could use conditional formatting for it, but I don't think I'm going about it the right way. I already got a basic button built to timestamp.
I have a database with several reports that get constantly printed, however I am having an issue with their display properties that sometimes cause errors.I need the report to come up on top of everything, maximized and with the menu bar available to allow for it to be printed or close it. The report window cannot have "minimize" or "restore" available to make sure nobody access any form behind it.
To achieve this in a form I generally use the modal property, however if I do this in a report I cannot get to the menu bar to print or close the print preview.Thinking that modal was out of the question, I went ahead and maximized the report on load and set its properties to the image attached. The db is then compiled (accde) and then distributed.
On my computer (it is being developed on my machine) the report loads fine (maximized) with no min, max or restore buttons and the print preview menu bar is shown with the print and close buttons available. See "My PC" image attached.On any other computer, the report opens up maximized but the report's restore and close buttons are enabled, however the print and close buttons on the print preview menu bar are greyed out. See "Other PC" image attached.Why the inconsistent behaviour when using the same front end?
On a form, I want to disable the save button, 'cmdSave' whilst the form's mandatory fields have been left blank.
I've put in a smart tag, called, 'Req' against each required field and have used the following code on the forms current event.
Code: Private Sub Form_Current() Dim ctl As Control For Each ctl In Me.Controls If ctl.ControlType = acTextBox Or ctl.ControlType = acComboBox Or ctl.ControlType = acListBox Then
[Code] ....
The save button is disabled, but it won't enable again after each field has data entered against it.
I also have this code in the AfterUpdate event in each required field:
Code: Private Sub cboErrorID_AfterUpdate() Call Form_Current End Sub
Basically I want to put a code in the "on load" event of a form that enables or disables navigation buttons based on a value in a table (the table has 1 record and 1 column).
So if the value is "A", I want to hide navigation buttons on load; if it is "B", I want to show navigation buttons on load.
I know I can set this property in each form, but I have a number of forms that I want to configure at the same time.
My problem is that I don't know how to reference the value in the table.
I have a form that has a listbox and a subform. The listbox lists names of events, start date and end date. The subform bellow reveals names of participants to the event that is clicked in the listbox. Against each participant's name is a button to delete the participant.How can I hide or disable the delete button if the start date of the event is past?
