General :: Any Way That Access Could Create A Drop Down Box Within A Drop Down Box?
Jul 24, 2012Is there anyway that access could create a drop down box within a drop down box? For instance, when a selection is made in a drop down box, it opens another drop down box with choices.And is it possible to link an inserted image from a form to open in MSPaint that when it opens, the image is already there?

Jul 10, 2012I have a drop down list in a table with name and commission rate. When I choose the name it displays but I want both the name and the commission rate to display in my table. I want to use a data entry form to enter values in the table and I want the same in the form too (when I choose a name I want the corresponding commission rate to show up).

Access 2002: Selected Data In Drop-down Boxes Blacked Out!
Apr 1, 2008Hi everyone!
Why is it that everytime I print a report containing Drop-down Boxes, the selected value for that particular record is blacked out?
This is a screenshot of what I'm talking about: http://ww w.hotlinkfiles.com/files/1177902_txqed/AccessReport-Error.JPG
All the blacked-out bits are supposed to be the selected values for each record.
I use Microsoft Access 2002. How can I fix this so that the actual value is legible?
To recreate the problem:
1) My table contains a field (called "Colour") that can only be satisfied by certain values ("Black"; "White"; "Coloured") as defined by a drop-down list.
2) I enter a record about a white scarf. Therefore under "Colour", I select "White" from the drop-down list.
3) I make a report from my table.
4) I print the report.
5) However, when I look at the record of the white scarf, all I see under "Colour" is a box containing the values "Black" and "Coloured", and in between them, the selected value "White" should be, is a black line.
THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP YOU CAN OFFER!

Apr 18, 2005Hi I have an access database called contact.mdb and I have linked to it just fine and used the records held in it to populate a datagrid and can update and delete records.
I don't understand databases that much but I would like to read the values into a drop down menu which are held in the field 'ID' from a table called 'courses'. I have a feeling it is something to do with data sets but am not too hot on these either. Any pointers or code would be gratefully received.
Thanx loads Lervy :d

View 3 Replies View RelatedForms :: Prevent Duplicates From Multiple Drop Downs In Access 2013
Jul 28, 2015I'm in Access 2013 and I built a form with multiple drop downs. Here is what I have in the same order of which the user must choose from......
Document "Field Observation", "Monthly Inspection", "Safety Roster" (The user must first choose the document from this drop down he is recording)
Supervisor "First & Last Name" (The user then chooses the first & last name of the specific Supervisor name he is recording the document for from this drop down)
Manager - This field automatically populates based on Supervisor.
AOR - This field automatically populates based on Supervisor.
Org Unit - This field automatically populates based on Supervisor.
Month "January", "February", etc. (The user then chooses the Month of which the document will need to be applied to)
I would like the form to trigger an error with "This document is already recorded for this month" when the user chooses "Monthly Inspection" OR "Safety Roster" for a specific "Supervisor" for a specific "Month" that is already recorded in "TBL_DataTracker". The TBL_DataTracker is where all of my records are stored.
Access 2010 - Main Menu Needs Drop Down Box Referencing A Table For SEARCH
May 6, 2014I have a main menu "MainMenuF" in my database and I would like the database to be able to be searched by any of the column headings. For example I have a table titled "NewLabReportT" this table has many column headings like "Submitted By" "Reviewed By" "Title" "Abstract" etc...
I would like my users to be able to click a radio button with the same column headers on this main menu and have a box that pops up to say "Enter search parameter" and have that parameter be searched in the table "NewLabReportT" and generate a FORM not a REPORT of all of the listings in the database that have that keyword associated to that certain category searched. That way they can "CLICK" the exact field they are looking for and have it open right up to that form.
Drop Down Menu Inside Drop Down Menu
May 15, 2006Ok, This is something I have long wanted to do, but cannot figure out.
I am working on a database for a company that orders a large number of Items. I have these all in one table (itemCode, itemDescription, price, categoryCode, etc). I have another table with categorys (categoryCode, categoryDescription) . Each Item is asigned a categoryCode and the appropiate relationship exsists. Right now I have a comboBox in a form that when selected opens a drops down menu with all the Items. Then another one auto loads up (continuous form) and I get the same drop down list of all the Items.
What I would like to have is a combo box then when it is selected shows the categorys, then based on that selection, I see all the Items that are in that category.
I guess another way of saying this simply is, I would like to create a drop down menu inside of a dropdown menu.
Is this possible? Does anyone have another alternative suggestion that might work well? I'm relectant to use a list box, becoase ideally it would be a drop down menu inside of a drop down menu as seen on many websites.
Thanks in Advance!

Drop Down Box
May 30, 2005Hi Guys,
I have a combo box on one of my forms that on clicking the arrow the user has the option to either input yes/no. However i have just noticed that the user doesn't have to input yes or no and can actually put whatever they want in it (which sort of defeats the object of the combo box!!)
Any ideas guys/gals??

Drop Down Help
Dec 26, 2005My database is set up with a sub form showing:
Mfg, Model, Serial#, and Type. When I drop down and choose the Mfg, I then go to the next drop down (Model)and the only choices I have are those associated with the Mfg I just selected from the previous drop down. On my Enter Repair Data form, I want to be able to drop down a box for Part Number and then have a drop down field for the Part Description to match the part number that i just selected. Then I would like to have the next drop down to show a unit price for the Part Number and Description fields that I just entered. Is it possible to accomplish this with an existing Data Base? My data base is 1.61M so it's too large to upload here, but if someone can help me my ICQ # is 65-489-369, e-mail is huntiir@bellsouth.net. I can upload a copy of my database if needed.
I also need to have a field added to another report in my data base sowing the total labor for units shipped on a particular date to a particular customer. The report already totals parts used in the repair of the units for that date. I just can't seem to get the total labor to show up.
I was also trying to set up an inventory Report on parts used for my repairs where it will calculate the number of parts in stock in the form of:
RR#, Part#, Description, Unit Cost, and Total Units in Stock. You can see that I am somewhat complicated and ignorant to the use of Access.
Can you help me out please?

Drop Box Filtering
Jan 6, 2006Hello Everyone. I'm not all that new to access however my problem does exceed my experience and I'm hopeing someone out there maybe able to help me.
A while back I began to build a database to keep track of post production activites such as what items were being produced on a perticular production line. Its my job to book all these items in according to date, line, item, order and qty.
This was all good and simple until it was decided that I had to assign a category to each item. Their are multiple models to one perticular category and to make things even more difficult the same item could be produced on more than one production line.
I work within a Pool company where their are 7 production lines, each with their own purpose and facilites of making certain products until you come to other products that could be produced on any of 3 or more lines.
So, I made a table 'Category' which lists the different types/acronyms for products and the lines in which it could be produced on.
I than created a new column within my Post Production table called 'category' and chose to use a drop box so I may select which category to assign the item. The drop box shows both columns 'Catefory','Line'.
The problem I have is that theres 40+ rows within the Category drop box and because the same name of the category may appear more than once simply beginning to type in the category name isn't good enough.
Is there a way to filter out which categories is listed within the drop box according to which line it maybe coming off once I've already selected which line within the same row?
I've tried selecting a relationship and createing a query both failed.

Drop Constraint Help
Sep 3, 2007I have an Access 2002 database with a relationship between 2 tables I want to delete using VB code. I setup the relationship from within Access. Is there a way to find out the name of the relationship, if there is such a thing. The tables are: TableA.Id linking to TableB.BankAcctId with both cascade functions. What would the VB code look like? Something like ALTER TableB DROP CONSTRAINT ...

Drop Down Menu Help
Feb 22, 2005Hi there.
I work for an Internet Marketing company and my boss wants me to design a huge huge form in Access - requiring alot of Drop Down Menus. Alot of them are simply Yes/No questions, some, however, are not.
This is what I have done so far:
I have a field called Sector which I have selected as a Yes/No Field.
In the Form Design View I have selected:
Row Source Type = Field List
Row Source = Sector (this is a separate table in which I have put all the options)
In Format, instead of Yes/No, I have changed it to "-" - this is simply because when I view it Normal View the first thing in the Drop Down Menu is a Yes or a No.
This all seems to work fine until I try to select one of the options and I get this error:
"The Value you entered isn't valid for this field - For example, you may have entered text in a numeric field or a number that is larger than the FieldSize settings permit"
I have gone back and forth into the Design View on the Form and the Table trying different things, but nothing I do seems to work.
I don't even know if I have gone about doing this Drop Down menu in the correct way to begin with.
I'm not an Access Expert so please if anyone has any ideas please let me know. It'll be much appreciated :)
Thankyou.
