Disappearing Changes In Navigation Form
Jul 29, 2014Today it seems that changes I am making to a form within a Navigation form are disappearing.
If I make the same changes to the underlying/original form, they are also disappearing.

hi,
i have tables called JobRecords and Customer, JobRecords contains 10,000 invoices (jobnumber 1-10000, but all are blank) these 2 tables are related by ContactRef. the idea is to select the ContactRef when entering an invoice and it will automatically fill in the address, phone number fields etc from the Customer table.
now since i need a VAT and Total values, i used a JobRecords Query, when creating the entries i had the default value for ContactRef set to (select) which in the Customer table has N/A values for all fields. my form shows all invoices with data from the jobRecords Query and Customer table, so when i added some new contacts into the Customer table, and then changed some of the invoices to show these addresses instead of (select) and N/A, they disappear.
i know that if some of the fields are null then it wont show the entire entry but even making sure all fields have data in it, it still doesnt appear in form view. it doesnt dissapear in the JobRecords Query either only the form.
my form is based on this
SELECT [JobRecords Query].JobReference, [JobRecords Query].InvoiceDate, [JobRecords Query].ContactRef, [JobRecords Query].JobDescription, [JobRecords Query].AuthNo, [JobRecords Query].AuthName, [JobRecords Query].OrderDate, [JobRecords Query].CompletionDate, [JobRecords Query].NettPayment, [JobRecords Query].VAT, [JobRecords Query].Total, [JobRecords Query].Invoiced, [JobRecords Query].Paid, [JobRecords Query].IncomeRef, Customer.DrawerRef, Customer.CustomerName, Customer.CustomerAddress, Customer.[CustomerPhone 1], Customer.[CustomerFax 1] FROM Customer INNER JOIN [JobRecords Query] ON Customer.ContactRef=[JobRecords Query].ContactRef;
can anyone help?
thanks

I have a main form and on my main form i have a button to open a popup form. very simple docmd.openform statement. This is an unbound form that lets user filter and select some data to populate the main form.
My problem: When i update code in the form and reopen it (via button or navigation pane) i cant see it. I know its open but i cant see it. If i change popup-no then it opens and i can see it, if i change back to popup-yes, i cant see it again. The problem only happens after i open VBE for this form. I've been importing older versions of the form, opening VBE and the phenomenon occurs everytime.
I'm working on the Navigation Form template in Access 2010, which is new to me. It appears that one needs to use the BrowseTo command to open up a form in the built-in subform module. I'm trying to create a couple of buttons where each button opens a form in a different data mode; one in read-only and one in add mode. Here is the syntax I used for read-only:
DoCmd.BrowseTo acBrowseToForm, "frmSales","frmNavigation.NavigationSubform", , ,acFormReadOnly
frmSales is the Sales form I want both of the buttons to open and frmNavigation is the Navigation form. It seems to be ignoring the data mode part at the end however. It only will open in Edit mode. Is there something I'm doing wrong with this command?
I would like to know if it's possible to open an specific subform inside a navigation form using an event.
I also need to to this using macros ( really can't use vba in this project =/)
Form example:
the main form has "nav_opt1", "nav_opt2", "nav_opt3"
By double clicking a record in "nav_opt1", it will open "nav_opt2" with some filters (but all in the same window), as if I was just browsing through the navigation forms usually.
I have created a master form, which is a tab style. I have five additional forms that I want to use as sub-forms within each tab. I also want to include master navigation buttons that will work for each sub-form in unison. In other words if I navigate to record 10 on tab 1 and switch to tab 2, I want the new tab to show the information related to record 10. It would appear that I need to link them together in some fashion.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I have made all the necessary forms to start working with my Access, and now I need a main form, a home where I should put all the buttons to enter each form.I have used the Navigation Control on a New form URL...
A row with buttons appeared, and I complete the property: Navigation Target Name with the target form, but it is giving me some trouble with a searchForm and a Query. Every time I enter this form (using nav control), Query asks for an Input.
I have used one of the members' code which was posted in a tread before to create a search box in a form. This code works perfectly when the form itself is open. Otherwise, when I put this searching form along with other forms in one navigation form, I get the following error: "Enter Parameter Value: Forms!FRM_SearchMulti!SrchText"...The code that was used for the Search box is as following:
Private Sub SearchFor_Change()
'Create a string (text) variable
Dim vSearchString As String
'Populate the string variable with the text entered in the Text Box SearchFor
vSearchString = SearchFor.Text
[code]....
Hi guys, I am new here in this Forum and in Access as well. I am wanting to use recordset on a form and two buttons that I want to program manually for navigation of Records. How can it me made possible keeping my code professional. I have tried to declare the Recordset as Public and it works but I have error if I use .movenext when the recordset moves to last one. Is this right approach to use recordsets as Public.
TO avoid this If I use While .eof My purpose does not get solve because I wanna navigate with clicks but if I use 'IF recordset.eof Then' , strangely enough my record count gives me the value 1. SO I am kind of stuck. Please Advice me that is this a good approach to use this programming way to navigate through recordset OR it is better to stick with standard given controls like subforms etc. I just find those controls limited or cumbersome.
I have discovered that I am a member of this forum. My last question is years ago. I haven't made much progress. However, I am using a msaccess db for subscription management of a magazine.
I have designed the db from scratch and it does its job to some degree. It is very unelegant, as I have to do much myself that I wish the db would do for me.
I have created a form for the table 'invoices'. I would like to be able to double click on the 'customer id' belonging to a certain invoice, with the result that the form belonging to the table 'subscribers' opens at that same subscriber the customer id belongs to.
I have created a macro that opens the form 'subscribers', but how do I tell it to open that certain subscriber.
I have taught myself access, and always found in the helpfile an answer which led further. Not in this case. I imagine this is a very simple, often used procedure.
I have a similar issue when writing invoices. On the form 'subscribers' there is a button that opens another form 'new invoice'. I would like it to display automatically the subscriber from where I opened the form 'new invoice'. At the moment I have to enter the user id again manually.
Do you know what I mean? Is there an easy answer to this question. Where could I find information about this kind of linking forms together?
Hi,
Just a quick question. I have a form of records, frm2, that gets opened via another form, frm1. Dependent on the content of frm1, frm2 is opened with a certain filter that shows only one record. I need to have it this way as there is too much data to show on just one form.
Frm2 does filter correctly to show only one record, and I've stripped away the navigation buttons, however, if you roll the mouse wheel it jumps to a new blank record. How do I disable this, so that the client can only see the one record and cannot navigate to the new blank record?
Thanks,

Hello,
I have read a couple of other queries about this problem, but none seem to help me.
I have a database, not too large (c.2000 records), not too complicated (very few macros, no referential integrity, no reports or subforms, mainly simple queries).
Over the past few weeks records have started disappearing. Vanishing, no trace. No pattern to the record numbers. About 220 in all have disappeared so far. There is a main table (manuscripts), with links to other tables (manuscript notes, manuscript decisions). The records disappear from the manuscripts table, but the related records are left in the other tables.
Only five people use the database, no one has deliberately deleted anything in fact as we keep all information.
Could this be a virus? I cannot believe that the database is too large.
any help really appreciated.
Thanks
Eleanor
Good Day Everyone :)
I am in a dilly of a pickle here: after i set up my form all nice nice, with cascading combo boxes, other random combo boxes, a search button, setting up the SQL, etc. I was so proud- thinking i've finally done it! :)
But then... as I reloaded the access form afterwards it only displayed in design views and SQL views, and not the other view. :eek: :confused:
So, this being my first ever database, I have no idea what the problem is.
I have checked the properties box, and it is not a problem with the settings -not - being on display always, nor with the other property settings. (I believe)
Any advice/input would be greatly appreciated into this matter :)
Thanks a million in advance!

I have a combo box on a form, this combo box by the use of a select query shows all the relevant values in the drop down box from a table:mad.
My major problem appears to be that records that are selected in the combo box by way of the slect query seem to be disappearing from the table or part of the record is lost.
ANY ideas??:mad:
Hi All,
I have a large database with about 200 queries. I am having a problem with the last few I added. I run them from VB. When I run them the SQL statement disappears, sometimes. If I go to the SQL View instead of the Design veiw all that is left is Select;. I the Design View there is nothing.
Any suggestions?
I have a form that has a memo field. If text in the memo field is highlighted and I press the enter key the text is deleted.
Does anyone know how to prevent this from happening?
I know it is easy enough to click off the text (deselect it) so that pressing the enter key will move me to the next field (as required) but I don't always remember to do this and Hey Presto I've lost my text and have to start again.
But why highlight the text in the first place I hear you say. Well I have just pasted it in from a different application and it comes in highlighted.
I created a new DB and there are times when I open my form that all of my entry fields have disappeared along with their captions. Sometimes I am able to advance through different records and get the fields to reappear, otherwise I have to close the form and reopen it. What causes this and is there something I can do to prevent it?
Thanks for your help!!!!
I have a main form with two subforms. One of the subforms in turn has three subforms.
It is a music database. The main form has title information, one subform has the group/artist. The other subform has song information (side, track, title running time) and subforms for performer, composer and conductor.
I am at a loss as to how to efficently navigate back and forth. All of the subforms (except song titles) are datasheet view using combo boxes. For lack of a better way there is a "Done" button after each row. Click the Done button moves the user to the next form.
I have custom Navigation buttons for the main form. The form works fine, it is just a pain to navigate.
I have other issues with it but this is enough for now. I started writing the database in Access 2000 and it is now being used with Access 2003. Any suggestions would be most appreciated!
After a refresh of the sub form, I want to go back to the last record edited. This might be a record not fitting on the top of the screen, let's say record no. 2000.
After the refresh the sub form shows the first records, and you need to scroll down.
How to solve this?
I'm trying to create a form without the standard navigation arrows on the bottom of the form. Is it possible to hide these? I want to use my own navigation buttons instead as they will be more intuitive to non tech users.
appreciate it
I have created a three part form that accesses and displays info from 3 different tables. The top of the form displays a position. Under that is a listbox displaying employees that have held that position currently and in the past. When a user clicks on an employee in the listbox, it fills in the bottom part of the form which is the employee-position. To assign an employee to a position, the bottom portion of the form is filled in.
The problem is that the standard form navigation controls don't resynch the listbox and the employee-postion portions of the form. I've tried putting code in the change event of the position code text box and in various events on the form. None of these events are hit when the navigation control is used. I could use a control button and hard code it, but then this form would look different than other forms in this application. I've tried using subforms, but the subform within a subform just didn't look right. Any ideas?
The navigation control must fire off some event that is accessible. Thanks for any help.

Hello all,
I am in dire need of Access expertise. Basically, I have a form with many customer records. What I want to accomplish is to have a text box at the bottom of the form whereby I can type in a client's name which would change the record on the form to display that clients information. It would be nice if what I type into the text box doesn't have to match a clients name exactly (maybe use some sort of wildcard?). I have but a clue how to acheive this. Any suggestions would be sincerely appreciated.
Recently I created a form for a table. I then added a field to that table, and thus, added that field to the appropriate form. The only problem is, if a user is tabbing his way through the form, the item I just added, which happens to be MiddleInitial Field, is always selected last, even though its the second item on the form. Is there a way to reassign navigation order, without creating the form all over again??
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form with an unbound subform that was working quite nicely. The only change I made was changing the data source for the main form from a query to a static table; name of table same as the prior query. Now the subform appears but the data doesn't. The buttons in the subform header are visible and work but the detail is not visible when displayed as a subform, it is fine if I open the subform as a separate form, I see the correct records based on the main form's criteria.
I have searched for some property I may have accidentally changed but can't find anything. It isn't set in data entry mode, not even a blank line shows.
Has anyone had this happen?
Hi peeps. I created a switchboard that opens a form in add mode. I click the button to open the form, it appears, but with no data - its blank.
If I open the form by itself (not via switchboard) its all there.
Whats up?
Help!
