Displaying Text Field Data For The Corresponding Combo Box Selction.
Nov 29, 2005
I am designing a database for my Bank.
But I have a problem, please give solution If you can help me.
I have a Table name "BranchName",purpose for entering Branches of Bank.
Fields are as below.
SrNo. (Auto Number)
BrName (Text)
BrCode (Number)
Region (Text)
Now I had made a Form "Branch".
On this there is one Combo box in which all "BrName" are shown.I made that.
Now I made another Text Field where I want to show the corresponding "Region" automatically appears for the selected "BrName" .
Now how I make this.Any Query or Code Builder Event ??????
I have several combo boxes and textboxes showing quanity,productname, size, and price. How can I pass all of this info in a single row that also calculates the quanity and price. Also, multiple selections can be added, so several items can can added in other rows. THe ability to cancel each row would be required as well. Thanks
I have only one bound text field in my report. By default, it shows the results (150 records ) vertically. I wish to show them horizontally, 5 in a row. How to do this.
I have inherited 1000 records which need to fit into new criteria selected from combo boxes and to do this individually by the forms will take forever so i want to copy and paste the data in the table, but when I do it doesn't fill in the form.
This may be a problem with the cascading script in the form as the fields fill in when I press f9 but disappear every time I open the form.Finally I eventually want to export the data as a table but displaying the text value rather than the key value.
I have a number field in my subform that's autoupdated but I'd like it to display "weeks" beside the number without trying to store it, is this possible?
I have a report based on a query. There is a field "comments" that is a memo type however on the report it does not display all of the text. I have the property "Can Grow" set to "yes" however it still only shows partial text. Any ideas? thanks in advance!
I'm a complete novice when it comes to dynamic data so forgive my ignorance. My database contains details of projects in progress. A user can click a link in a list and display a summary of that project (okay so far - I've done that bit) - in the database though there are two tables the second one lists project events/comments (title, date, job number and description) - when something interesting happens during a project we add to the 2nd database a summary of what happened (we made 2nd db because the list of things happening could be one entry or 50 entries) - the tables are links by the job number. On the web site I would like that when a user clicks the link to display the info about a project it all also pulls info from the second db but for the project with the same number.
I've hard coded a similar thing before "select * from tblProducts where category like 'Off Road and Dirt Bikes'" but in this case instead of hard typing 'Off Road and Dirt Bikes' I'd like it to automatically insert the job number of the project being looked at from the first database.
I don't think I've explained this as well as I could've - but if anyone could help I will be really grateful.
I am trying to figure how to do the following with a listbox On my Form I have a list box that shows my users a distinct list of items from a "master" table that they can select and add to their own user defined table that is used as a filter for a number of reports and queries
As long as I have only 1 column in both - I can get the following code to work
DoCmd.SetWarnings False Dim Criteria As String Dim ctl As Control Dim Itm As Variant ' Build a list of the selections. Set ctl = Me.lstProjectLists For Each Itm In ctl.ItemsSelected DoCmd.RunSQL "Insert into my_project values ('" & ctl.ItemData(Itm) & "')" Next Itm DoCmd.Requery Me.Refresh DoCmd.SetWarnings True
What I would like to do is expand my list box to contain more than 1 column and when the user selects from my master list to populate theirs - I want to copy the entire row over.
Example of what I am looking for On a form I want to have a list box that contains Project No (column1) and Description (Column2) - when a user selects a row and clicks on a command button (code sample from above) to "populate" the selection into their list - I want both columns to be copied into thier table "my_project" .
I have a form that is displaying a subform (of which source is a query). I have got the data from one of the columns in the subform going into a text box (entered in the control source) however when the field is empty it comes with a #Error in the textbox.I want the textbox is display some text is the subform value is null.
I have a table in my database with customer records including account number and account name. On a form I would like to set up a combo where the account number is selected and for the corresponding account name to appear in an adjacent text box.
The customer account number control is currently a textbox for manual entry but I want to change that to a combo with the AccountNumber field set as the control source.
I would like to know how to get the customer name to appear in the CustomerName textbox when the account number is selected from the new combo.
Any help would be appreciated and I enclose a copy of the form on a word doc.
I have a combo box where I select a Hardware store. I want the address for the store to come up if a hardware store is selected. If one is not selected I want to be able to enter an address.
I have a vendor (hardware store) table, which contains the Hardware store and it's address. I can get the combo box to show the store selections but I can't get the address to come up after I select the store.
:mad: I have a combo box which is being used for surname searching. It displays surnames in the first column and first names in the second column. I would like the user to be able to type or select a surname from the dropdown list and where there are multiple entries of that surname select the correct record. At present the first matching surname is the one that keeps being selected.
I am displaying the complete record in fields lower down in the same form.
I also have a firstname search combobox but the code will be almost identical.
Can someone help me with this problem. Thanks in advance.
Hi! I'm certin this is something really simple, but I just can't remember how I've done it before.
I have a combo box called "ReferralReason" and when a particular option ("Other") is chosen from the list in there, I want the text field "ReferralReasonOther" to become unlocked.
Could someone please tell me:
a) do I type the VBA code for this in the properties of the combo, or, the text field? (Does it even make a difference)
I understand the problems that can be brought upon ones self by creating the table with lookup fields, But if the table was orginally designed with them and then the Field is then changed to a Text box instead of a Combo box will the inherent problems associated with the lookup within a table disappear?
I have requested this before but the example given did not fit my situation and I had a heck of a time trying to adapt the example given to me so I will step by step describe what I need. thanks...
Can someone show me how to do the following:
1) Take a combo box that looks up a table that has 2 variables (Var1 and Var2).
2) Depending on the value chosen in the combobox (Var1) then a text field will automatically have the value (Var2) appear.
3) This information from combo box and text field will then be stored in a separate table that is linked to the form.
Is there a way to extend this example further by adding another combo box that takes the result from the first combo box to filter in values for the second combo box which will then automatically populate a text box which would then be stored in a separate table.
Someone kind of showed me before but they used unbound variables and this confused me as the combobox was unbound but how is that information stored into my table?
Pardon me for my redundancy but this is frustrating me to no end and I unfortunately have a deadline of today!!!! :(
I think it is the row source thing that confuses me. I take row source to mean where the data is stored. But where do you identify where to obtain the data to then store in your "inputed" table?
I have a combo where the list is populated with a bit of VB code to create a two field list. When the user selects the item they want from the list it displays the item in the combo box and should populate a text box in the same row with the value from the second column.
This combo is part of an orders subform and the user is selecting a product from the list which displays the product_name and the product_id.
The problem is that the product_id is not filled in and access returns the following error: Run-time error ‘3101’: The Microsoft Jet database cannot find a record in the table ‘product_table’ with key matching field(s) product_id.
This is the VB code that populates the list : [code] Private Sub comboCatagory_ID_AfterUpdate() Dim sProd_description As String sProd_description = "SELECT products_table.product_id, products_table.prod_description " & _ "FROM products_table " & _ "WHERE products_table.prod_catagoryID = " & "'" & Me.comboCatagory_ID.Column(0) Me.comboProd_description.RowSource = sProd_description Me.comboProd_description.Requery End Sub [end code]
This is really hard to explain, but basically I'm trying to use a combo box that has a control source different than it's record source to update another field on the record source. For example, the combo box pulls it's options from a table called "NameList" and when you select an option from the combo box it updates a table called "Results". On this form there are form fields that are bound to the "Results" table. What I want to happen is, when I make a certain selection from the combo box, I want one of the fields bound to "Results" to automatically display text from a different table. Is this even possible? If this is a horrible explanation, please let me know. I need serious help on this one, I've been working on this for a day and a half now. If anyone has any ideas on how to do it a different way, please make suggestions. Thanks in advance!

Also, another thing I forgot to mention, this may help anyone who tries to help me. This "Results" form is basically used as a log utilizing a report to display a sequence of events. I've included a screenshot for visual affect. I have censored a few things for privacy reasons.
From a table I want a text field which has a path to a file to be copied automatically into a another field of the same table with a hyperlink text type...
In the database attached I have a form called from Candidates.In this form is a combo box where a user can select what company the candidate belongs too.
However some candidates are Private Individuals (do not belong to a company).Therefore, I want the Position field to be set to 'n/a" by default if 'Private Individual' is selected.
I am trying to create a login form with the following three basic fields:
txtUsername cboUsertype txtPassword
I would like to be able to populate cboUsertype with User types associated to the user I type into txtUsername. I have found many useful tutorial on the web on login procedures. How ever I hardly found anything on how to populate a combobox after updating a texfield. It bis more than a week that I am trying to find a solution but until now I have just been . I would be grateful if you could provide me with either a link on the web or a vb code to make it work.
I have a table named ColorValues with the following three fields:
- ID - MunsellCode - RGBValue
30 fields from another table called Color_Analysis are linked to the above with one to many relationships (I've already thought of other ways to normalize data, but this is the most efficient, so no need to go into this topic).
Now, I've constructed a form for Color_Analysis and all 30 fields recording color are included as combo boxes bounded on the ID in ColorValues and displaying the MunsellCode for the user. I've also created unbounded text fields next to the combo boxes and want to use them to display the color that the user selected in the ComboBox. The question is how do I do this?
Essentially I need a piece of code that picks up the value of the combo box (this is essentially the ID in ColorValues), looks up that value in the ID column of the ColorValues table and uses the corresponding RGBValue of the same table as the .BackColor for the unbounded text field.
Autofill text field using combo box selectionHello,
I'm trying to autofill a field on a form using MS-Access 2010 Web version sharepoint using macros without coding.
The form has an existing Combo Box field called Segment, using the row sources "REW", "WTT", "DBM".
A user begins filling out the form and eventually selects the Combo Box for Segment and selects any one of the segment no Multiple selection
There is another text field, which is actually alpha-numeric, called Job_No. I want this to autofill based on their Segment selection, using this format:
REW-YYMMDD-TTTT, or REW-131210-20001 for example, for today with the time displayed as military time and last Job No.(20001) for REW and Also for WTT (30001) as starting number.
I have a DVD movie table and a lookup table for the movie genre. One selects the movie genre by opening a combo box which has the values. (Movie typeID which is a number and MovieType which is a text.The records are being displayed in a Access 2010 split form with the datasheet on the left. Any editing can be done on the right or the single record side.I would like to only display the genre for that movie as opposed to the combo box which can be edited and next to it have a command button to open a form in order to change or select the genre for the existing or new DVD.So, I guess what I'm asking is how do I display the genre fo that particular movie?
I have an access database in which there are tab controls to collect text written about a subject. My problem is that there are nine tabs all with the exact same code behind them, but obviously varying object names for the relevant text boxes. Four of them work as expected and five don't.
The following code has been used to display a popup if the user types too much text and it works for the Environ_Plan text box:
Private Sub txtENVIRON_PLAN_Change() Dim strMessage As String, varLen As Variant
varLen = Nz(Len(Me.txtENVIRON_PLAN.Text), 0) If varLen > 250 Then
strMessage = "You have exceeded the limit of this field by " & (varLen - 250) & " characters." & vbNewLine strMessage = strMessage & "The maximum allowable length is " & 250 & " characters." MsgBox strMessage, vbOKOnly + vbExclamation
End If End Sub
(note that if the user types 251 characters an error message appears on the screen to say they have exceeded the number of characters allowed for that box and they cannot type any more text.)
The following text is used for the exact same outcome in Health but it does not work:
Private Sub txtHEALTH_PLAN_Change() Dim strMessage As String, varLen As Variant
varLen = Nz(Len(Me.txtHEALTH_PLAN.Text), 0) If varLen > 250 Then
strMessage = "You have exceeded the limit of this field by " & (varLen - 250) & " characters." & vbNewLine strMessage = strMessage & "The maximum allowable length is " & 250 & " characters." MsgBox strMessage, vbOKOnly + vbExclamation
End If End Sub
(In this case the cursor stops and the user cannot type any more text but no message appears to say why the cursor has stopped.)
I have double checked the actual variables in the Access database and they are set to the exact same values.
I am using Access 2002 on Windows XP Professional.
I am a new Access user. The problem I am having is getting the data in a subform to display the text associated with the primary key rather than the primary key itself. In the subform StudentEnrolmentTable, faculty choose the CourseNumber from a combo box and the remaining associated fields are populated with and update query. The problem is when the associated fields are viewed by faculy through the form, they are showing only primary keys and not the text the key is associated with.
