Establish Criteria In Query Based On Form Text Box Value
Sep 10, 2007
I sure am having difficulty with this. I'm trying to have the criteria in my form refer to a text box within one of my forms which is the text as I would write it myself within the query design view.
Query's [DEST_ZIP5] criteria = [Forms]![Mainswitchboard]![QueryWizard].[form]![calcDestZip5]
[calcDestZip5]'s value in QueryWizard form = "55422" OR "55343"
Basically, I just want to be able to enter the text string within a form instead of within the query. Sure this can be done!
Oh, and for what it's worth...
If, [calcDestZip5]'s value in QueryWizard form = "55422"
Then the query runs just fine. It's as if the query doesn't want to accept multiple criteria from another source.
TIA

I am trying to run a query and display the results in a report (the report side of it is childs play and not a problem). The problem I am having is that I have a search form which should allow the user to search any one of 6 fields (text boxes) or a combination of each.
If the user enters something into a field then that search criteria must match. I wanted to have it so if all fields are left blank then it will show all entries in the database (but it isn't, it shows a blank report). I also wanted it to allow partial completion of boxes.
So for instance if I have 5 customers (Jones, Jonson, Jonus, jimjonkins, Janis) and I type "Jon" into the name field then I would like it to show the first 4 records as they all contain "jon" somewhere in their name but its not, its only allowing exact matches.
I currently have '[forms]![Search_Customer]![Search_Name]'.

Hi all,
I have a query which populates a form called EditPatientFrm, which asks the user to enter the patient UniqueID in order to pull up the record they want to edit from the TblPatient. However, I want the user to now be able to input just one of three criteria in order to pull up the record to be edited:
UniqueID
ChartNumber
PatientLastName and PatientFirstName (two fields)
since they may not have the UniqueID readily available to them.
Can anyone show me how to do this? I have tried to find answer to this one under queries and forms- no avail. Sure it's a simple thing...
thanks!

What I want to do is set the criteria of a query to the value on a form if the form is open, and set it to a different value if the form is closed. I tried using a function on the OnLoad event of the form to set a variable called IsOpen to 1 if the form is open, and reset that variable to 0 when the form closes, but when I tried using the variable in an IIF statement in the query criteria, I got a "Its too complex" error.
Here's what I really want to do. I have a very complex form with multiple tabs and subforms. The subforms populate based on a query of what is selected and loaded into a textbox control on the first tab of the form. The first tab has a subform that is based on the main table. Rather than recreate that form, I want to copy it and change the rowsource on the first tab to a subset of the main table, and tell the query to use the textbox on the new form so I don't have to go and replicate all the other subforms. Is there a way to do that or am I just screwed?

My form-based search mechanism uses controls to set the parameters for the query data source.
I have one field call quantity in stock. I could you a Between and And method to allow the end user to input the stock quantity they want.
HOWEVER, i would love it for the user to first select the Comparison Operator (e.g. > , <, >=, <=) from a combo box and then in an adjacent text box, enter the quantity.
The expression i entered in the query goes something like this.... Forms![frmSearch]![cboRange] & [Forms]![frmSearch]![txtQuantity]
When i try and run this, i get the message "THe expression is too complex to be evaluated".

I'm trying set the query criteria from a textbox on a form. It's a Status field in the query. 1 = Open, 2 = Closed. If I set the criteria to "1" it shows all open, "2" and it shows all closed and "1" or "2" it shows all. The problem I'm having is setting these in the form. I've set the query to pull the value from the form. I can get the Open or Closed to work but not the All. My textbox shows exactly how the criteria should read "1" or "2" but doesn't show any results.

I've got a continuous form based on a query.Each of the fields have a search box below it (in the footer) which should ideally filter the query.I'm starting with the FirstName field.In the form's query, I've set the criteria to the following for the FirstName field:
Code:
Like "*" & [Forms]![frmStudentDetails]![txtSearchFirstName] & "*"
frmStudentDetails is the form name.
txtSearchFirstName is the search box's name (in the footer).
The AfterUpdate event for txtSearchFirstName is:
Code:
Me.Requery
But, it doesn't work; when I switch to form view, it displays an error. The Microsoft Access database engine does not recognize '[Forms]![frmStudent Details]![txtSearchFirstName]' as a valid field name or expression.

I have a form which lets the user enter a contract ID and then a combo box that has a list of reports which run against whichever ID is entered.
What I want to know if I put the ID's in a table if theres a way to allow the user to select multiple ID's in one go and run the report against them the range rather than 1 at time?
I'm thinking about utilising the check/tick boxes would this be possible? or another way?
I'm using 2003 and have some VBA ability.

Am not getting a value from a form text box when using in the criteria line in my query. Am referencing like [Forms]![FormName]![FormLabelName]. If I copy the data in the form and paste it into the query, it works fine, but if I just reference the form, I get no results.

I've been writing queries in the following format for years in Access 2003, but having recently transistioned to Access 2010, I've found the following sql doesn't work.transform
sum(s.value)
SELECT
s.sn, s.ln, s.pn, s.id, s.lat, s.point, s.supply_type, s.used, s.real, s.code, c.name
FROM
supply_points s
, codes c
WHERE
s.code = c.code
and s.id is not null
and s.code = 1075
and s.month >=[forms]![main]![gppstart ]
group by
s.sn, s.ln, s.pn, s.id, s.lat, s.point, s.supply_type, s.used, s.real, s.code, c.name
pivot
s.month
In Access 2010, this query returns the following error message:the Microsoft Access database does not recognize '[forms]![main]![gppstart]' as a valid field name or expression
Is this a common phenomena in Access 2010?

I have a table x where the field value is selected via a combo box in a form that is populated from another table z.
When I look in x, it appears to have correctly stored the text from z, not the ID number.
I then built a Query, qX, which looks in x and grabs the fields I want. That query shows the text correctly in each selected field.
Now when I build a form, frmQx and use a List control, it displays some of the fields as ID values from the original table z, not the text values.
How can I get round this? I've searched and searched for an answer, sigh. Maybe I'm just not quite certain how to phrase the search.

I have a form where I want a textbox [txtMaxOrdLimit] to be visible only if another text box on the same form [PaNumber] contains the letter D in the string. This is the code I have on the forms On Current property but I'm missing something because textbox [txtMaxOrdLimit] doesn't show on the form at all.
If Me.PaNumber = "*D" Then
Me.txtMaxOrdLimit.Visible = True
Else
Me.txtMaxOrdLimit.Visible = False
End If

I have table with filed with jobs that our IT’s have done for that day, the table is updated daily, based on my table I have created my query, I have set some criteria for some fields though, as follow:
Month = [Forms]![DailyWorkForm]![commonth]
Year = [Forms]![DailyWorkForm]![comyear]
ITName = [Forms]![DailyWorkForm]![comit]
Day = [Forms]![DailyWorkForm]![comday]
on my form I have commonth, comyear, comit, comday and a command button that will open a report based on the query which will be based on my 4 combo boxes on my form, ok I hope I didn’t make you all really confused, this is the question what if the user inputs on 2 combo only, meaning that if month = may and year = 2005 and left ITname and day empty, I still want the query to run, how can I do that?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
I have a form (say Form X) that opens based on the ProjectID criteria in the query, which is based on a record selected from Form1 [ProjectID].
I want to be able to open Form X using information from 2 forms - Form1 or Form2, both using ProjectID. What I've done so far works, but I get an Enter Value Parameter looking for the other Form. How do I write the statement so that it reads Form1 [ProjectID] and if that is not open (null??), then it goes to Form2 [ProjectID] and vice versa?
What I have is:
IIf(("IsNull[Forms]![FrmAddPrjInfo]![ProjectID]"),[Forms]![FrmPrjRvwerMgrDue]![ProjectID],0) Or IIf(("IsNull[Forms]![FrmPrjRvwerMgrDue]![ProjectID]"),[Forms]![FrmAddPrjInfo]![ProjectID],0)
Variations of this haven't worked. Perhaps IIF statement is the wrong way to go about this?
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hi all,
I am endeavouring to filter a form based on the position of an individual.
I would like the users to be able to select their position and then any record where there is a match in the "Primary Responsibility" field or the "Secondary Responsibility " field will be displayed.
I have an underlying query that is populated by a combo box on an unbound form.
This has worked when generating reports for individuals but I cannot get the required result when using the form.
Thanking anyone in advance who can assist me with this.
Regards,
Rod

Hi All
I want to create a query which is based on two fields.
One field is a date query i.e >=Date()-7 OR >=Date+7
The Other is a Combo box where the criteria is No
My problem is that access is currently running this as two individual queries.
Is it possible to make this query return data only when both fields are matching?
Or do I have to run this as a parameter query?
Thanks!!

I have a table of courses our university offers along with what restrictions are placed on them. The table has the Course ID as the primary key, and then the field is Restriction. For the sake of the example, I'll use the course names instead of their ID #s:
Course Name Restriction
Acting II Acting I
Acting II Fundamentals of Acting
Acting II No Freshmen
How can I incorporate the following logic into this table.You must take either Acting I OR Fundamentals of Acting before taking Acting II AND you must not be a freshman.this table is in a "one to many" relationship with the course inventory table. One course may be associated with many restrictions.

Hi, How can I make the data in a textbox on my form automatically entered as the search criteria in a query. So say the box says Mike Johnson, can I make a command button (That I can eventually subsititute as the actual box) that puts the Nma emIk Johnson into a search query and brings up all the information on him from the database?

I need to open my form with a filter attached that is based on criteria already existing in the subform. I've tried putting the following code in the OnOpen event of my main form :
Code:Dim stDocName As StringDim stLinkCriteria As StringstDocName = "Campaign Form"stLinkCriteria = "[Campaign - Last Contact Status subform].Form![Communication Response] in ("2","4","10","11")"DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, acNormal, , stLinkCriteria, acFormPropertySettings, acWindowNormal
Basically I want to open my main form (Campaign Form) and only show records where the "Communication Response" is 2,4,10 or 11(a variable on my subform "Campaign - Last Contact Status subform"). Which in itself is a problem because I can't seem to code all of these variables- it will only accept one.
When I run the above code I am getting asked to enter a parameter value for "Campaign - Last Contact Status". I'm not too sure where this is picking this up from or how to fix it. I've even tried to run this based on the underlying query of "Campaign - Last Contact Status subform" with the same results.
Can someone help me? All I want to do is open the form based on the criteria I specify which is contained in a field in the subform. It doesn't sound that hard but it seems to be getting the better of me!

Maybe it's the day's 'brain drain', but I need to set a criteria in a query whereby it will select answers in a field that are a specific number of characters in length.
i.e., answers that are 5 digits long (without knowing any of the digits)

I have a database with the following information:
FTA # Date Attended Last name First name assigned person......
Each week I need to generate a report that shows the people that attended for that week, grouped by the assigned person. I only want to show the data for a specific "date attended" (i.e. that days date). I figured I first need to generate a query that only returns the data for that specific date in the "date attended" column. I did that but it is manuel by using the criteria field.
Is there an easy way to type in the date that I want the query to use as the criteria?
Thanks

I have a table(Product Change) with these fields:
Tracking Number
Approved (a check box)
Engineering (text box that represents department)
Purchasing (text box that represents department)
Quality (text box that represents department)
Production (text box that represents department)
Customer Service (text box that represents department)
I want my query results to show all records that have the "Approved" check box...checked, and then only the records that have one of the Department fields with a null value.
So I'm looking to see only records that are "Approved" and out of those....only the records with at least one department field empty(Null).
Any help doing this is SQL view would be great...or even design view.

Hi,
I have the following code which i found on another thread on this forum (thanks to original author) which is attached to the On Click of a button which prints the report corresponding to the details displayed in the form.
Dim strCriterion As String
Dim strMsg As String, strTitle As String
Dim intStyle As Integer
If IsNull(Me![ReferenceNumber]) Then
strMsg = "You cannot print a Blank Form!!."
strTitle = "Print Error"
intStyle = vbOKOnly
MsgBox strMsg, intStyle, strTitle
Exit Sub
End If
If Me.Dirty Then
Me.Dirty = False
End If
strCriterion = "[ReferenceNumber]=" & Me![ReferenceNumber]
DoCmd.OpenReport "DoC Certificate", acViewNormal, , strCriterion
This works fine, however, i need to be able to select the report based on more than 1 criteria. For example, the Reference Number can be repeated but is distinguishable from each other by an Issue Number i.e. ReferenceNumber = 93, Issue 1 or 2 etc. At present when i run the above it prints all versions of, in this case, reference number 93, which given that each report is only a single page isn't a show-stopper but it would be nice to have it working as i would like.
I have tried adding to the strCriterion line such as strCriterion = "[ReferenceNumber]=" & Me![ReferenceNumber] and "[IssueNumber]=" & Me![IssueNumber] but no joy. I have tried bracketing the whole line and variations thereof, again no joy.
Can anybody tell if what i am attempting to do is possible and if so how do i go about it?
I have tried the above coding using MasterID which is the Autonumber PK but it produces an "Enter Parameter Value" box for MasterID. Obvioulsy if i can get it to work for the Autonumber then my problem goes away but i can't seem to figure out why it works for Reference Number (Number) and not MasterId (Autonumber)?
Regards
Alan
