Enable And / Or On Custom Search Form

Jun 9, 2014

I've created a custom search form where using unbound text boxes and combo boxes I enter the criteria for a query. I would like to enhance my form to allow "and" and "or" searches on a field. For example, a product on my database has multiple features. I would like to search for products who have "feature1 and feature 2" or "feature1 or feature2". {Note: The table, Product is connected to table, Features using table, LineItem_ProdFeature where there are multiple records in Features for one record in Product}

Right now, the search form has a combo box that lists all product features. The user selects a feature and runs the query. All products with that feature are listed in the query.

It would be so great if the user could choose multiple features from the combo box. Then the query would return all products that have all of the selected features ("and" search). It would be just awesome if the user could select multiple features, and specify if they want an "and" or "or" search of those features.

Queries :: Custom Search Form Query?

Jan 28, 2015

I have made a database for work and is fully functional, but theres one thing I want to add but cant get my head around how to do it.

I have created a Form called 'Filtered Search', on the form it has multiple combo boxes for 'Auditors' 'Area' 'Status' and 2 text boxes for date range.

I want to be able to set what filters I want, and for the query to ignore any fields with no information selected/inputted (i.e. I want to see all records raised by "Mr Smith" (Auditor) that are still 'Active' (Status) in all areas at any time).

Names of items;

Table = 'Incidents'
Form = 'Filtered Search'
Report = 'Filtered Report'
Auditor = 'Combo7'
Status = 'Combo156'
Area = 'Combo5'
Date Range From = 'Text161'
Date Range To = 'Text163'

Searching For Value Range On A Custom Search Form

Jun 9, 2014

I built a custom search form that uses unbound text boxes to set the criteria for a query. For example, I have an unbound text box, LastName on my search form. Then in the query, I set the criteria to Like "*"&[Forms]![SearchForm]![LastName]&"*". This returns all records if the text box is left blank or returns those records that match the text box if it isn't.

I would like to do the same thing but instead of searching a text field, I want to search a number field. And I want to search for a range of values aka >10 instead of just a single value. I still need the query to return all records if the text box is left blank.

Need Custom Search Ability

May 18, 2005

I support a database for some users who don't find the built in search function (ctl+f) to be useful enough.

The main data entry form of the database has fields for subdivision, lot number and address, any of which they may use to find the record they want. They're requesting that I add two types for searching:
* select sub and/or lot number as search criteria and have the selected record populate the screen
* type in a freeform address and have the record populate the screen

I'm debating about what the best approach would be to do this. Should I have a command button which opens a pop up form with the fields? If so, what is the code I will need to take the data selected/entered on the popup, run a query and then populate the underlying form? I think I need to pass parameters but I'm inexperienced at this so I need some guidance.

Also thinking that if I do create a popup form that I'll use it in the open event on the data entry form as well.

Thanks.

Enable Mousewheel In A Form

Apr 27, 2006

Hi guys!

Got a small problem. I got a big Access-form (big of size) but a small computerscreen before me. I am very much used to scroll up and down with my mousewheel.

However, when I open my file and the opening-form pops up I cannot scroll up-and-down the form using my mousewheel.

Is there a VBA-code or whatsoever which can enable the mousewheel???

I tried to find the answer in earlier discussions, but I found only discussions where the topic was about disabling the mousewheel. I want to ENable it.

Does anyone has a clou?

Many thanks, cheers,
Willem

Form Control .Enable ....help

Jun 9, 2006

Sorry to bother everyone with something that is probably real simple....

I would like to disable one control if another does not equal a certain value.

Do I set the control to enable=No and then use OnCurrent and afterupdate?

As always, I am confused and could use some assistance.

Enable/disable All Controls On Form

Jan 10, 2008

Hello. I have a form with a million little buttons on it (don't get me started, I didn't design it! - heh)...

Depending upon which user is running the mdb, I would like all but 16 (of the 80 or so) objects/controls disabled/enabled. I would like to autodisable all the controls, then enable the subset (or all of them) depending who the current user is.

SO in short, other than individually disabling/enabling the many items, is there a magic command for vba, similar to enable *.* for controls [silly e.g., but I hope you get my point...]

Thoughts!

Thanks!

How To Enable Users To Use Wildcards In Their Searches On A Form

Jul 22, 2013

I have a Excel spreadsheet with an embedded query that pulls from an Access table. The users use a spreadsheet with an embedded query to search on a field called "Circuit ID", to bring up results showing the history of a given circuit id. Currently they have to enter an exact match, for example if the circuit id value is DHECHUIOY, they need to enter this exact value DHECHUIOY. They want instead to be able to enter DHEC and a wildcard character to bring back every value that begins with DHEC. There doesn't seem to be a way to do this in a spreadsheet with an embedded query.

I finally decided that it would be easier to create a form in Access

How I can create a form which allows users to search on a value using wildcard characters ? (the user enters the wildcard character).

I'm on Access 2012, Windows Vista

Un-enable Buttons On Subform When Main Form Loads

Jun 19, 2006

I did a search in the form forum and couldn't find anything close that had a response.

I have a parent form and a sub form.

I have the parent set up to make the enable property false for the command buttons that aren't appropriate when you first open the form: Like Save and Undo.

I want to do the same for the child form, which has different data linked to the parent form.

The parent form always grays out the inappropriate boxes.

The subform will gray them out only if I open it as a stand-alone form. When I put the code in the Open, or Load or Gotfocus events I get an error message that it cannot locate the subform.

Any ideas where to go?

Thanks-

Forms :: Enable / Disable Checkbox On Continuous Form

Apr 5, 2015

I am asked to create a checklist for a number of tasks to be executed in a particular shift. However in some tasks can be skipped. There are three shifts per day.

To accomplish this i have created a continious form with a number of checkboxes per task which represent the days of the week. The tasks itself are stored in a seperate table with a checkbox per shift (task settings). If the tasks must be performed in a particular shift, the checkbox is activated (= true).

Goal here is, if a task doesn't have to be executed in a shift the task should not be visible on the continious form. The recordsource of the continuous form is a query, which contains a join between the table with the task settings and the table with the tasks performed.

I have placed some code to perform the task in the form's current event

In the continuous form current event I have placed for every checkbox the following code:

Private Sub Form_Current()
If Me. PerformTaskShift.Value = True Then
Me.MaandagOchtend.Enabled = False
End If
End Sub

However when i execute the code and load the form, not only the checkbox in the row mentioned are set invisible, all the rows are. Is there any way to set only the checkboxes on the rows mentioned invisible, in stead of all rows?

Forms :: Edit Button To Enable Edits On Form And Subform

Sep 22, 2013

I have a form "Handover" on this form I have a button that enables edit functionality once clicked, I now have a subform on this form named "Bdown".

The Bdown subform allows edits without having to click the "btn_Edit" on the main form "Handover".

Is is possible to make the edit button on "Handover" control the edit function on "Bdown" also?

Currently "Handover" contains:

Code:
Private Sub btn_Edit_Click()
Me.AllowEdits = True
Me.btn_Edit.Caption = "Editing"

Modules & VBA :: Look Up A Value In Table That Enable Or Disable Subform In Main Form

May 20, 2015

I have written code to look up a value in a table that then enables or disables a subform in my main form. The code works, but I know it is now as efficient as it can be. The main problem is that I have multiple values that determine if the subform should be enabled or disabled. I would like to use an IN statement but I'm pretty sure this doesn't work for Dlookup. Below is an example of the code I currently have:

Code:
Sub enablecontrols(setting As Boolean)
Inv_subform.Enabled = setting
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Current()

[Code] ....

Like I said, this works fine, but I am concerned if I need to add more items to look up and the stability of the code in general.

Forms :: Enable / Disable Navigation Button On Form Load?

Mar 25, 2013

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.

General :: One Form With Two Custom Ribbons

Aug 13, 2013

I have converted a 2003 database to the 2010 file format. In the 2010 database, I have created the USysRibbons table with 2 separate ribbons. One of the ribbons need to load depending on what the user chooses upon opening the database. I have a form that opens with the database and the user can either choose "Premium" or "Subsidy." I'm uncertain as to why the conversion will not replicate how the database works in 2003 but if I had to assume it would be because of the ribbons. I found a small piece of VBA that I think needs to be changed but I'm not sure to what or how. As of right now, I don't have a ribbon loading, just the form to load when the database is opened. Except I noticed that the "add-ins" opens the correct menu depending on which the user chose.

I actually went into Options--->Current Database--->Ribbon and Toolbar and selected a generic ribbon (File, which just has exit because it's the same whether the user selects Premium or Subsidy).

To clarify if needed, the user doesn't actually log in. The form that pops when the database opens has the drop down of either Premium or Subsidy. So really it goes like this:

Open database
Select Premium
Click Enter
Premium ribbon loads

OR

Open database
Select Subsidy
Click Enter
Subsidy ribbon loads

Technically, if I could have just the form pop I'd be cool with that because on the form there is an Exit Application button where the user could click and exit the database. When either the Premium or Subsidy ribbon is loaded, I already have an exit in the coding.

Public Sub openRegion(authority As String, region As String)
If (cboRegion.value = region) Or (region = "ALL") Then
'open region selected
If cboRegion.value = "PREMIUM" Then
loadPremium authority

Modules & VBA :: Custom Record Counter Of A Form?

Jan 27, 2015

I have a custom record counter on a form using the below code:

Private Sub Form_Current()
If Me.NewRecord Then
Me.lblRecordCounter.Caption = _
"Record " & Me.CurrentRecord & " of " & Me.Recordset.RecordCount + 1
Else
Me.lblRecordCounter.Caption = _
"Record " & Me.CurrentRecord & " of " & Me.Recordset.RecordCount
End If
End Sub

I think at some stage the form was saved with a filter on and this may be causing the issue. The problem I have is:

There are 1749 records. Everytime I open the form the custom record counter displays "Record 1 of 501". The built in record counter shows 1 of 1749. The moment I hit the next record arrow the custom record counter displays "2 of 1749" and if I go back again it displays "1 of 1749.".

I know it's a filter causing the problem because I have a macro that does a clear search. As soon as I hit the clear search the custom counter goes back to "1 of 501" again (even though the built in one stays at 1 of 1749).

I have Filter on Load set to No.

what I am doing wrong?
