Continous Form Help
Mar 29, 2005hi all,
i have a continous form as a subform.I want users to edit this only if there is a particular value in a one textbox..say if textbox has value "A" user can edit it else he is not allowed to edit it.
so if i write code on the page load whenever it finds a value A it makes all the rows in the form editable but i only want those rows to be editable which have value "A".
Is there any way by which i can dynamically access the row ids in the continous forms.I am new to access though i have code in asp and asp.net. so just thinking if there is something similar in access also.
thanks a lot
Help With A Continous Form
Dec 6, 2006Hi All
I posted this earlier but don't think I explained it that well, so here goes.
I have a main form which displays a site name, city, post code.
I have 6 tabbed subforms which display a full record set of site name, address, contacts and telephone numbers for a client, site and other related data such as visits to sites and contract agreements.
I would like the main form to have a scrollable list of all the sites entered which will change the subforms to show the relevant detail for the first site in the list on the main form.
It works fine as a single form, I can use the record selector to find a site and all the relevant details change as expected.
I cannot change the main form to continuous as I get a message telling me I cant have this due to the subforms.
Is there a solution to this?
I'm fairly new to Access but can work my way through most things.
I'm using Access 2000.
Thanks

Continous Form Problem
Apr 7, 2006Hello the world
I have problem which has me stumped
what i have is a from where I need to add a location -fine not too much of problem
, I have a table of my most used locations (Based in the UK ) and I need to monitor these quite regularly so for my top venues I have in a table (makes sense), however sometimes I have an unknow location, and I will only use this location once,, now I don't want to add these locations to my main table of about 100-200 venues, so what i can up with is other venue option which allowed the user to overtype my venue box with whatever they wanted, my problem is that when i list more than 1 venue and one of the locations is not on the list, it enables all of the fields to be edited , I know its recordsets but cannot get my 'ead round this - to expand a bit
If its one venue then no problem, if its 2 venues then I have a linked table opening up tied to the main record as the index (usul stuff) and the table autonumbers happly ,i need somehow to get the line to lock just that 1 record not all of the record in the table for the main refernce - have i made any sense or am I losing it (its midnight here)
Any pointers greatly appicated:confused:
Continous Form Workround?
Jun 16, 2006Having realised that unbound controls on a continous form all 'work together' -
I have decided to use a secondary form which allows the user to enter additional data for the current record on the main form. A command button press invokes the secondary form and using a filter is able to allow new data entry for the record / amend existing.
However, if the record is new - when the secondary form is closed and focus returns to the primary form - the read only controls that display the data entered, do not update to reflect the data entered. Yet, if the record is amended - the amendments are updated immediately on the primary form...!Why is this ... ??? I have tried forcing a refresh of the individual read only control concerned but to no avail.... Any ideas comments greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Scan Continous Form For Update

I need it to check all the records in the subform. I have tried OnLoad, OnOpen, OnCurrent, OnTimer. None have worked. Any help???

Continous Form With Bound / Unbound Controls?
Nov 8, 2005I'm having a bit of a problem - I built quite a complex db that works great and I'm comfortable with code and access. But, I've been working with ASP for a while now and I think it has made me a bit fogetful re: Access.
If someone can point me in the right direction conceptually it would be appreciated. My system is primarily built around scheduling and I have created tables and web forms to interact with my current access database to allow our recources to check and confirm their daily schedules online.
My problem is on the Access side. I need to build a dashboard using a form that queries the table that holds our resources status information and will display whether or not they've logged in and confirmed their schedule. As well, I need controls on this form to allow me to update their individual schedules if it has been changed. Most of this is no problem, the big problem I'm having is the display of information and form interaction... Can I use a continuous form for this?
When I try to use unbound controls such as images - hiding/unhiding images depending on a specific records value (for let's say a traffic light that shows whether a resource has confirmed their schedule) - it seems that I can't control images, checkboxes, etc. for individual records on the continous form with code as all these unbound controls defualt to the value of the first record.
Selections In Continous Form Problem, Part II
Oct 27, 2006Hello,
I have a continuous subform that shows records from a table [not the table the parent form is based on] - a check box, a text field with text, and a blank text field for notes.
When I click on one particular of the checkboxes I see in form view, I can make the notes field/s visible. Unfortunately, that means right now that the fields for all the records become visible.
If at all possible, I would like to set this up so that only one particular text box becomes visible.
Could somebody please tell me if this can be done, and help me do it?
Thanks a lot.

View 1 Replies View RelatedREFRESH Combo Boxes For Records On Continous Form
Jul 7, 2005Background:
I have a continous form linked to a table and I have 3 combo boxes on the
form (linked to fields on the table). The combo boxes are called JOB TITLE,
SCHEDULE and SHIFT. The source for the combo boxes are queries named
respectively as LKUPJOB, LKUPSCHEDULE and LKUPSHIFT. For the three combo boxes listed abpve, the bound column is the first field of the underlying query and the column width of the first field is set to 0" (so that the second field of the query is displayed).
The way things should work is that for each record on the form, the
LKUPSCHEDULE and LKUPSHIFT queries (queries for the SCHEDULE and SHIFT combo boxes), the queries are filtered based on the bound field of the JOB TITLE combo box. The name of the bound field for the JOB TITLE combo is called Labor_Rate_ID.
Problem:
Unfortunately, It seems like the value of the labor-rate_ID in the first
record (i.e. first job title combo box) determines the query list used by the
SCHEDULE and SHIFT comboboxes for all the other records on the form. That is, even though the form has lots of records displayed, the combo boxes for each record don't have a complete list to work with.
Hence, the SCHEDULE and SHIFT combo boxes for some records are showing a blank (since available otions in the combo query list don't match the value
in the table for that record.
Can anybody tell me how to get a continous form to refress the list for each
record on the form.
I also don't know whether the Requery command for a macro could work and how to use it. I think though, that this problem can't be solved by a macro.
Basically, the question is around what kind of code will let you manipulate the properties of individual controls of a form at the Record level.

Changing A Label In One Record Of A Tabular/continous Form
Jul 28, 2006I'm new here, mostly learning to do stuff by trial and error. I have a sneaking suspicion that I could easily search out the answer to my question if I had the right vocabulary, but I don't think I do...
Anyway, my question, hopefully you can help me with.
I've got a tabular form that has a couple of comboboxes, and then a text label:
ComboA....ComboB....Label
What I'd like to do is change the label for each row based on the Combobox data...
ComboA....ComboB....Label
Red..........Apple.......0
Red..........Apple.......0
Red..........Apple.......0
The user changes some setting, so this happens...
ComboA....ComboB....Label
Red..........Apple.......0
Blue..........Pear........3
Red..........Apple.......0
That's what I want. How I'm currently doing this is having a Sub called whenever the Combo boxes are changed, to change Me.Label.Value to 3, in this example. Of course, what instead happens is I get...
ComboA....ComboB....Label
Red..........Apple.......3
Blue..........Pear........3
Red..........Apple.......3
Which is not what I want at all. Is there a way to change the value of the label in(for instance) the second row, without changing /all/ the labels in the continous form? I'd be really handy to know how to do that, but I just can't puzzle out a way.
If that's not possible... Any other way to get my labels to display the information? Part of the problem is that my function relies on information stored in variables in my form, and I'm not sure I can access those just from the source propery of the label... What I need, essentially, is to put in Label's value the result of MyFunc(ComboA.Value,ComboB.Value,formvariable1,for mvariable2).
Any help would be muchly appreciated!
How To Create Filter Button On Form And Filter Records

View 3 Replies View RelatedContinous Refreshing
Feb 26, 2006Hi!
I'd like to ask for your help in the following issue:
I wanted to refresh the filtering of my combo-list on a subform according to the change of a field on the main form.
With this
Private Sub supplierID_AfterUpdate()
Forms![invoices]![details1 Segédűrlap]![KombináltLista4].Requery
End Sub
it succeeded. But when I turn a page on the main form (to see records registrated in the past), the combo-list on the subform doesn't change (because Access doesn't get any after-update info - I guess).
But I'd like to use a solution that always watches the actual value of the main form displayed on the screen and so it changes the filtered list of the sub-form - combo-list according to it.
Please help if you have a good idea/solution to it.
(take care I'm beginner at Visual Basic)
Thanks

Forms :: Filter Button On Form As Filter
Aug 1, 2013I 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.
Images In Continous Forms
May 21, 2006Hi
I would like to be able to create a continous form that different type of inage depending on values set in a given field. I have found that if I put an image field in my table and use this idea it works ok. The problem I am getting is to change the image based on the value in the given field. To make this easier to expalin. record one is a yes or no value record two is an image value that could be image one or image 2. I tried storing the images in a seperate table. Could someone help with making this work with vb code.

Cascading Combos On Continous Forms
May 12, 2006Hi Guys,
I have two unbound cascading combo boxes on a form that limit the data for a stored field.
I am designing this as a subform to show software installed on a PC (hence the need to have a continuous form). As the manufacturer, software package and edition are already stored in my database, I am storing only the ID of the edition to limit duplicating data.
I would like to show the values in the cascading combos that relate to the edition ID stored as well as filtering the edition ID using the combo boxes (i guess a filter and a reverse lookup)
Please see attached pic. First record was entered as Microsoft Autoroute. New record for Manufacturer Frontier, change the previous records combos.
Thanks for you help

Continous Forms Subform Error Message!
Jan 24, 2005Continuous forms error.
Hi,
I have a database which displays one form as a subform of another form. Originally the subform was displayed in datasheet view, but now due to changes I am trying to make to the system I want to display this subform as continuous forms. Unfortunately in datasheet view, when a record of the main form has several records (ie enough to require scrolling down the list) in the subform I get errors when scrolling through these subform records.
The error message that access is displaying is "The Value you entered isn't valid for this field. eg you have entered text in a numeric field or a number that is larger than the FieldSize setting permits."
I thought ok, maybe the subform design was duff (I am taking over a system designed by someone else) and so created a new subform, but the error still occurs with a totally fresh subform. The error occurs even when viewing the subform on its own. With a lot of records displayed on screen in the continous forms view I get numerous occurances of the abopve mentioned error message box and access eventually crashes. Yet in datasheet view everything is fine.
It's incredibly annoying as I can't fathom out what is causing the problem and how to fix it and to go about what I am doing in another way (ie without using continous forms) will mean scrapping a whole days work. I also don't like to do things a different way just because I can't get it to work the way I'd like to.
If anyone has some solutions to this problem I would be eternally grateful!
Thanks in advance!

Forms :: Applying Sort And Filter In Form Results In Design Changes To Form
Dec 27, 2014When 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.
Forms :: Filter List Box On Form By Using A Control On Form
Jan 14, 2015On 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.
Forms :: Filter A Form Based On A Field In Another Form
Jul 13, 2014I have a form (Suppliers) with a button that opens another form (Product List).

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

Forms :: Filter Second Form Based On Text Box In First Form
Apr 30, 2014I 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.
