Hi all, I basically have a long form which requires me to use the right side scroll bar to complete everything.
I currently have a top header area (which is great because it is viewable even as you scroll all the way down).
I'm wondering if Access is capable of having a "side header" (for lack of better words), i.e. on the right hand side have just a few buttons or fields that always stays there even though I scroll all the way down the form? This would work the same way as the header, just on the side instead.
Form with three sections. I have three queries selecting different set of set in a table, I would like to show all three in a form side by side. How can I do this? I use form wizard bit it only uses one query as a source.
When I right click a row on the data sheet side of a split form an select "New Record" I want the curser to go to the first field on the single record side. I've placed this in the OnCurrent but it did no good.
Code:
If Me.NewRecord Then Me!Descrfiption.SetFocus. End If
Any way to set the focus to the single form Side of a split form?
How do I move combo box label into the form header area while leaving the actual field title in the detail area in a subform so they looked stacked like the other items??
I have form named home page in this homepage form in the form header i have inserted some fields from some tables like province, district, community etc. these fields are unbound and are used for filtering purposes, when i select a province all districts related to that province displayed and when i select a a district all related communities displayed, there is a one to many relationship between district table and community table,
What I want is, when i select a district on the form header(it is unbound as i explained before) of this homepage form, the DistrictID should appear in community subform under DistrictID(as there is a one to many relationship between district and community) .
For more clarification find the snap shot attached...
You know how you get the form header/detail/footer sections on a form. Well, how can you make text appear down the side (ie so that it overlaps all of the header/detail/footer sections).
Take a look at my drawing, it will explain it better...
So I'm trying to manipulate Access to create a Directory for my church. I'm trying to get a report to show the church staff, which I was able to do, but I was wondering, is it possible to get the records to show side by side instead of one on top of the other?
I included a picture of the design view showing what I would like to see. Excuse the way the numbers are written, it's hard to write with a mouse.
I have split my database, the data is in a DB on the server and the forms, reports, etc is on the client desktop. My question is "Is there an advantage to having all of my combo box queries (Lookups) on the server side (defined in the table as a combo lookup) or should I put the all on the form so that they reside in client side DB.
I created a small database and on my form (frmGE), I added a button "Delete". This button have to move the record (just the actual record and not all records) to the form "FrmRetired". The form "FrmRetired" have the same fields, except for the "comment" field. I tried to programm it so when i click on it, the record will be moved to the "FrmRetired" and by the same time, the record will be deleted from the form "frmGE"
I created a ADD query, but I missed something...then for the "Delete" button, I added this code Private Sub Move_data_click() DoCmd.OpenQuery "QueryMove", acViewNormal, acReadOnly EndSub
Hi all. This is one has been troubling me for quite a while and once more I seek for solution to the right (hope so) place.
I have imported from a Excel a table and based on that table I created a form. But when I try to add a combo box on the form header in order to search for a particular record to display on screen the error on the attachment occurs. I didn't add even a single character of code, and the error message seems weird.
I tried doing the same thing on another pc (an older one) and it is working fine...I've added search via combo boxes in the past without any problems but this time something isn't going right.
The problem: If a form's header is set to visible, all objects on the form will flicker when the scrollbar is used.
This problem has annoyed me for some time and I figured to do a little testing. I have narrowed the problem down to when the form header is visible, all objects flicker. I was wondering if anyone knows a solution to this or if anyone has similar experiences with this problem. I have done some searches and haven't found any solutions. I have a set of form controls that I want on top all the time but don't like toolbars. I prefure to customize the look myself. Any solutions/help/words would be awesome. Thanks for your time.
I want to Delete only FK on the many side first and the record on the one side by one click of a button. I wrote some code which sometimes works and sometimes it does not!!
I wonder if any one have a better idea or doing this please?
Private Sub Delete_Click()
Dim db As DAO.Database, rs As DAO.Recordset Dim n As Integer, i As Integer Dim vStart As Integer Dim vEnd As Integer Dim vSite As Integer Dim vRCCID As Integer
vSite = Forms![frmSite].Form![SiteID] vRCCID = Forms![frmSite]![Roads Construction Consent].Form![RCCID] vStart = Me.PhaseStart - 1 vEnd = Me.PhaseEnd + 1
Set db = CurrentDb Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tblPhase") rs.MoveLast n = rs.RecordCount rs.MoveFirst If n > 0 Then For i = 1 To n If rs![SiteID] = vSite Then If rs![PhaseNumber] > vStart And rs![PhaseNumber] < vEnd Then rs.Edit rs![RCCID] = Null rs.Update
End If End If rs.MoveNext Next i End If rs.Close db.Close Set db = Nothing Set rs = Nothing
'/////////////////////////////////////////////
DoCmd.RunSQL "DELETE RCCID FROM tblRCC WHERE RCCID = " & vRCCID & ""
'////////////////////////////////////////////// End Sub
tblRCC is the one side of the relationship and tblPhase is the many side.
I have a basic knowledge of access and therefore not VB conversant. So any advice please keep simple.
I have created a form with which I already total the sum of the value of all records in the form header, using sum function. When filtering the form the expression returns the correct value for the record set filtered on.
What I also want to achive is a total value for certain records within the filter. I have tried DSum function and IIF argument unsuccesfully.
The record information is as follows:
Form name: Reservations Field to sum: [No] Condidtion: Where the [SalesItemID]='EP006'
This does return the correct number of SalesItem=EP006 in the form when the form is unfiltered, although it does not change to display the value of the records in the filtered set.
Anyone give me some not too technical direction.
Many thanks

I currently have a form that will simply display the values from a query, which was called by a form. What I want is for the header (a text box) in the report to have the value that the user selects from the form that calls the report. Also, when the form calls the report, it only prints it off. I would like to know how the form can just display the report instead.
I have a report with some text boxes on it. Sometimes the text in these boxes can be a very long string of characters (maybe a path to some folder). In this case I do not want the text box to grow. I just want the report to show me the right-hand side of this path and cut off the left. How do I do this when still aligning my text to the left?
I would like to create a command button on the header of a form. The button should perform a toggle switch: click once to activate the task and click it again returning original state. I can create the command button to perform a task but do not know how to return to original state. The button should have indicator showing which state is in.
I have a mainform. When I click on a command button, it opens up another form. That form is designed to be as a continuous form, yet it does not display the header. The header is present in the form view. I have attached the screenprints to show the header in my form and the corresponding properties window.
I have a form with a query as rowsource.When I open the form in data sheet view form header is not showing(Though it is visible in form view).Is it possible to show the form header in datasheet view?
A user requested a change that would change the form header and detail back ground color to white when they click the button print record and then change the color back all in one click after the record prints. I keeping getting a run time error, type mismatch on the line where to code is to be changed. The colors are numbers not vbColors. I am using Access 2007.
I've placed an unbound text control in the header of a Split Form. I also placed a label in header of a split form.But, neither is visible until I select a row on the split form datasheet.The Visible property is set to yes and the fore color is white and the background is transparent.
I want to add an event on Form Header when double click it will filter the values, which i did with macro, but could it happen on second time double clicking it it refreshes whole as original?
Hello. I have a question that seems simple but I can't get it to work. Any help would be appresiated.
I need a form that will pull the oldest record from one table, allow the user to add a few fields to the record, then paste the record to a different table. when it is done the original record has to be removed from the original table.
I have tried using a append Query, but it moves all of the records at once and doesn't allow data entry on each record. I'm not sure if this would be done by a Query, Form or Macro. I have laid out the nessacary data flow below incase there is an easier way to do this.
Persons A,B, and C enters data into table 1. later person D pulls the oldest record from table 1, reads the data then adds fields to the record and records it to table 2. The information is then removed from table 1. Person D then goes onto the next record from table 1. When person D is done, there will be no data left in table 1.
Any Ideas? or can someone point me in the right direction for help?
I have a continuous form that shows the main fields in my table. In the page footer of the form I have a tab control that has 4 additional fields for each record. I want to give the user the option of “Show Details”. When the user clicks on “show details” I want to move the tab control with the additional fields to the detail row so the user can see them.
I know how to move controls with VBA by setting the Top and Left properties and how to expand the detail size, but how do I move controls from one section on the form to another section on the form i.e. from the page footer to the detail section
