Filter By Form In Front End
Jul 20, 2007
I recently split my Access 2000 database and lost the ability to filter by form in the front end. I have the "Don't display list" set well above the number of records I have (by about 1000), and the "Show list of values in" options are all checked. These are the same settings as are in the back end, where I am still able to filter by form. Any known solutions out there?
While I'm doing this, can someone tell me how to set permissions for the front end where other users cannot delete data?

How can I create a "Filter Button" on a form and filter my records? I create a textbox on a form and a filter button on the right. Then I click the filter futton, the filter function will search/match the content in the box through the datasheet. And then the results of the filtering will be pop up on the split form datasheet.

I'd like to know how to programatically bring a form on top of another one
I have two forms: Menu and Notice
in the onOpen event of the form Menu, I open the form Notice
problem is that even if Notice is the active form, it still hides under the Menu form...that's just weird...
Could it have something to do with the startup option in Access in which I tell to open Menu first, it looks like the startup event comes after the onOpen event.

Hi, how do i get a report to appear in front of a form that is set as Pop-Up? at the moment when the report is opened it appears behind the form.
I am using 2000 db for this,
I'm sure in 2003 you can select pop-up inside the reports, there must be a really straight forward way around this in 2000? (without changing the form)
thankyou in advance

I have placed a filter button on a form as a filter and written the following on-click event procedure:
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdApplyFilterSort
Me.Filter = "ACCOUNT_DO_NOT_EMAIL = 'HS'"
Me.FilterOn = True
When I click the filter button I get a blank message box titled 'Microsoft Access" and an OK button, when closed the filter works perfectly.I have checked this procedure in other forms and it works without showing the blank message box.The only difference with this form is that its control source is a union query.

I am after a script to lock a userform to the front but still be able to work on other forms.
I have an excel userform in access which does this and better still it is like a sticky note as it stays on the screen even when going to another program, but as I am working in vba all day long, every time I change something the form closes, it works great when not using vba though.

I have a Form with a control button that opens a Table using VBA code.
I have made quite a few similar databases before and usually when the Table opens it opens "above' or in front of the Form.
This time the Table opens but behind the Form.
I would like the Table to open and appear in front of the Form.
Is there a setting or something to control which displays on top?

I have a 2007 back-end db on a network share and around 15 regular users who access it through their own front-end db/interface. One user on Windows 7 is able to launch and use his front-end copy fine except when he goes to launch one form for data entry.
This form clocks and freezes the entire application. I sat with him and was able to determine that the issue is that the form_load code is never running. He clicks on the button to launch the form (done in vba) and the code never runs. If he opens the form in design view first then changes to form view, the code runs fine and there are no issues. This is his present work-around, but I had to give him an unlocked FE copy to pull it off (not ideal!).
I tried this with him on different PCs, with different front-end copies, and even in the back-end copy. Same result each time. None of the other users have this issue, and he can replicate this issue on different PCs. I'm at a loss for what might be causing this since it really seems so user-specific.

Hard to see the image but basically, I can't seem to bring the database behind the form to the front to view it when I click on it. I've never encountered this before.

I have a database that I've split and have deployed to 7 persons.
The thing is, I have three (3) forms:
Form 1
Form 2
Form 3
...that require changing a portion of a line in each form's respective VBA codes. I need to change the directories to where an excel workbook is stored after exporting, and another is where same excel is moved to after being uploaded.
At the moment, during deployment I have to manually change the directories.
I was thinking of maybe a pop-up form with four (4) fields that allows the user to select his/her name at the start-up of their frontend app, and paste the directories in the other text boxes provided.
This information will then be used to replace the directories in the VBA.
If I were to make changes and have to redeploy, I would have to do everything manually again.

Is there any particular reason I would choose to use
DoCmd.RunSQL "insert into...
Versus
CurrentDb.Execute "insert into.... ??
I am using an unbound form on the front end of my database to populate the backend tables (multiple tables). Some forms only have a few fields, while other forms have about 15 fields with 3-4 tables updating.
I am okay using the DoCmn.RunSQL , but I keeping reading on the forum that others chose CurrentDB.Execute and it has me thinking.
My database is stored on a network drive with only on front end.

When I'm applying a sort and filter in a form, Access is updating the Filter and Order By properties of the form, so that it is possible to re-use in conjunction with Filter on Load and Order By on Load properties. However, a consequence of this is that when the form is closed, it prompts the user whether they want to save the design of the form. I want to circumvent this as I don't want to re-use the sort and filter and I don't want to be prompted to save the design of the form.
Although I can circumvent this by closing the form using a method that doesn't prompt for saving, the additional complication here is that the form in question is in the Navigation subform of a Navigation Control. Hence when I click on a another Navigation button, it (not me) closes my current form and hence prompts me whether I want to save the design of the form (if I have been sorting and/or filtering). I can't see how to circumvent this and the prompting is resulting in unacceptable usability.

I've looked for how to do but everywhere people asks how to bring a form in the front of all forms.I have a form emergent and modal. The program hides the access enviroment.But, when the form is loaded, it always appears under the window that I have active (whatever the window is, an excel sheet, internet explorer, etc).Is there any vba command to bring the form (or maybe the access application) to the front as the first visible window?

On a form I have a:
control called "FilterListBox"
list box called "lstCustomer"
option Box called "optCustomerType"
When the user selects an option in the option box, "FilterListBox" is updated to either "1", "2" or "1 or 2"..One of the fields in the query for "lstCustomer" is "CustomerType" and its criteria is set as follows:
[Forms]![frmPrintHowCustomersPaidInvoice]![FilterListBox]
if "FilterListBox" = 1 the query for "lstCustomer" returns the correct records
if "FilterListBox" = 2 the query for "lstCustomer" returns the correct records
But if "FilterListBox" = 1 or 2, no records are returned.

I have a form (Suppliers) with a button that opens another form (Product List).
At the moment the form (Product List) is set as a pop-up form and when opened lists all products.
I want to filter the pop-up form to only display products for the current supplier displayed in the Supplier Form.
I have tried the following below without success - I have varied this but the filter does not apply ...
Private Sub Form_Load()
DoCmd.OpenForm "Product List", acNormal, , "SupplierID = " & SupplierID
End Sub

I have a button that opens a second form and filters that form based on a text box on the first form(which remains open). the problem is that it does not filter the second form unless the second form is already loaded for some reason.
For example if i click on the button it opens the form Unfiltered then i go back to the previous form without closing the first form, click the button again and it is then filtered .
I attached the screen shot of the macro for the button and there are no other events on the second form.

i have one form filtered based on a field value, now i want to open another form which has only the same member ID but not the actual field on what the first form had been filtered (so i cannot just use the same filter) , so what i want to do is that the 2nd form should only show the members which are in the first form.

I'm trying to hash two scripts I've found into 1 functioning filter, however I'm still relatively new to vba and can't figure out how to get this working.
I'm trying to use Allen Browne's Search Criteria:
with another snippete of code I found here:
Code:
'Purpose: This module illustrates how to create a search form, _
where the user can enter as many or few criteria as they wish, _
and results are shown one per line.
[Code]....
It's the date part I'm having trouble with, the rest of the search criteria work fine without the date, but I can't get it working when I try to modify and merge the date sections of each code.
Also I'm using a listbox for the "Yesterday";"Last 4 days";"Last 9 days" and not a combo box.

Hi!
I have a db in access 2003. I have a form frnStat, where I have 6 different fields. The meaning with the form is that a user can fill the fields that they want, and in that way decide what information they want from the the table tblBookings. I use the information from the fields in a queery, qryFilt. Then it generates a report rptStatistics wich also catch the information from frmStat and the filtered data.
I use a formula like this in the querry [Forms]![frmStat]![FirstDate] to catch the input from the form.
But if a user donīt fill in all of the 6 fields it doesnīt work.
Can I in some way write a formula that says:
"If a field is not filled ignore it
So if a user just fills in three of these fields, she get the information filtered by those three fields. s this possoble, and in that case, how?
Jack

:confused: I have figured out how to apply the filter in the form by command button. I have created a second command button to turn the filter off, but for some reason, I can not get it to turn off. I have tried using the event procedure. But I am sure there is a code that I just don't know how to write or use. It just needs to turn off the sorting of BoxTubeNo. Can someone help me before I give up all together?:confused:

I am having problems adding records to my form. After I add a record, it doesnt show. I removed the filter in the Properties Box but it still acts like it is filtering. However, if I close the form and reopen it, the record is there. What do I do to fix this?

Hi,
i need help regarding filtering a whole form, like the auto-filter used in spreadsheet..
that is i have a continous form with a list of data, and I would like to filter all the list headings so that if the user for example wants to view data only related to a specific country, he/she can do this by choosing that country only.
Is this possible?
thanks a lot for any help.

Sorry to have so many questions today but i keep coming up against problems.
I have found the best way to search my database the way i want is to use the filter by form function.
However, in the final build of the database, users will not have access to many of the functions on the toolbars so i would like to set the filter by form as a command button or similar.
How do i go about doing this.
Thanks very much
