Feb 14, 2014I am trying to disable a field in a form based on a value in a field on a different table/form. I have been able, through simple VBA code, to disable fields based on a value in the same form. Are queries/sub forms the only way to go?
View 7 Replies View RelatedForms :: Graying Out / Disabling Field Based On Other Fields On Form / Subform
Jun 27, 2013I am wanting to grey out/disable a field on a form based on entries in two other fields being the same. One of these fields that contains the data to be referenced in on a sub-form.The form is called 'Payment_Information-Form', the field to be greyed out/disabled is called 'SUF A Paid?'
The fields that are being referenced are: 'Set up fee in s (SUF) Recrt Restriction A <=' which is on the main form, and 'SUF_Letter' which is on a sub-form (within the main form). The sub-form is called 'Costings_11_Previously_Paid_SUF subform'.If 'Set up fee in s (SUF) Recrt Restriction A <=' equals 'SUF_Letter' then grey out.I tried the following formula in both the On Current and After Update sections but it hasn't work.
=IIf([Forms]![Payment_Information-Form]![Costings_11_Previously_Paid_SUF subform].[Form]![SUF_Letter]=[Set up fee in s (SUF) Recrt Restriction A <=],[SUF A Paid?].[Visible]=True,[SUF A Paid?].[Visible]=False)

Enabling/Disabling Fields In Single Records
Jun 27, 2005Hello,
I've recently been told how to enable/disable fields in a form by ticking/unticking a box. Is there a way that, on a tabulated form, i can only disable/enable the field for the same record as the one the check box is in rather than for every record?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Phil

Temporary Disabling A Field In A Form
Sep 24, 2006Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.
I have a small spare parts db which also has pictures of some of the parts.
manufacturer
partnumber
wholesale
retail
picture
The form carries data on wholesale price which I would need to hide if the customer would like to see a picture of the required spare part.
Is it possible to have a button to temporary make the wholesale field non-visible? Or would it be better to click on a button to open a new page with just the picture of the selected part and the retail price, if so what is the best way to achieve this.
Thank you in advance for any assistance.

View 2 Replies View RelatedForms :: Disabling Additions In A Form
Mar 22, 2013I have a form which acts as a search function for users looking to amend existing records. This is based on a query, where users enter a parameter (PolicyNumber) and this returns only the records which match the PolicyNumber in a form view. I have also added basic navigation buttons to move between all records with the same policy number. I have a problem in that I can't disable the option to add a new record in this form once people navigate to the end of the records.
The user clicks a 'search' button, manually inputs the policy number, and the records are returned in form view. The code for the button is as follows:
Code : DoCmd.OpenForm "frmAdjustmentsEdit", acNormal, "qryPolicyNumberSearchWriteOff", "", acEdit, acNormal
How I can disable the addition of records in this? Also as a sidenote if no records are found I would like it to display a MsgBox, but despite trawling the internet have been unable to find a solution I could get to work.

Disabling/enabling Help!
Mar 10, 2005Working in the theatreworld, I'm trying to create something which will usefully combine my contacts and also a database of which shows we have done (dates, actors involved etc, etc) and what shows we have bought in.
So far, I have created my form which has the usual fields (name, address and so on) and also a field which asks users to describe what type of contact they are ie. are they an actor, or a director, or a theatre company.
There are also two command buttons, which will either open up another form which lists all the productions they have been in with us over the years (In-house productions), or one that opens up another form which lists what shows each theatre company has brought to us.
I would like to be able to select 'actor' in the category field which will then enable the command button for me to see what productions that person has been in. Or if I selected the 'theatre company' category then the other button becomes enabled.
Can anybody advise me on this please? Alternatively, if this all sounds far too convoluted, then I am open to suggestions!
Many thanks in advance,
Popps
Disabling Subform
Aug 5, 2005Is there any way I can disable a subform in my main form until the user has entered some data in the main form and thereby created a primary key?
If the user decides to enter data in the subform first it gives an error and obviously I don't want this!

Disabling PrintScreen
Feb 23, 2005We need a way to prevent confidential information from being printed.
We have secured the database application itself by disabling all print
commands except the ones we want, but PrintScreen still works fine.
We cannot use any system-wide disbaling of that key, because it is
the only way that users can print off screens from the BPCS terminal
program. We actually have a program that prints off a page directly
when the Print Screen button is pressed, and people have become
accustomed to using it.
I have searched this topic extensively and found nothing. The only
thing I can think of is to make a data access page and use
standard browser security code, but that would require an extensive
rewrite of our application.
Does anyone know how to disable the PrintScreen key from within the
database application? Thanks.

View 9 Replies View RelatedDisabling Parameter Dialog Box
Mar 17, 2006Hello,
I have an innoccuous problem with a report I run in Access. The record source for the report is a query that is pulls data from 6 tables. I have a table titled ARInfo that I have to return amost all the fields in the table (big table) so I used * and show all the fields. When I run the report from the button click event on my form, before the query runs that servers as the report's record source, a parameter dialog box pops up titled ARInfo (table name). You do not have to enter anything in the box for the report to run properly. I have only been with the company or 3 months, but we have used Aceess 97 and Access 2000 in the past and it is my understanding that in the old systems, this dialog would not pop up (The query, form, report, and code is unchanged0. Since we converted to Access 2002, this dialog pops up. The code behind the form, report, and in the associated modules is very immense (This report and form that drives it touches many diferent pieces of the system) so I'm not really about to inclued any code in this post. If anybody knows a quick and dirty trick to disable dialogs or any conceptual theories as to why this is occuring, please let me know.

Disabling Buttons From Tab Controls
Mar 29, 2005Hi there everyone,
I got the following Switchboard example somewhere else, and I do understand the code, up to the point where I want to make a change but can't :mad:
The Navi buttons on the right can be chosen by the user to display the different tabbed pages. However, I want sometimes that some of these buttons are disabled at runtime.
I cannot get the right syntax for doing this. I've tried Me.btnPage1.Enabled = False but that just does NOTHING!
Could someone please have a look at the attached DB (frmSwitchboard and the code behind it) and tell me where I am missing something? That would be great, thanks!
Regards,
J
