Why won't the form save - it's telling me the command or action Save Record isn't available just now. I've got it on a After Update event of a combo box where it saves the record then it previews a report. If I don't save before opening the report half the data is missing.
If Me.Dirty Then
If MsgBox("Record has not been saved. " & Chr(13) & _
"Do you want to save it?", vbInformation + vbOKCancel) = vbOK Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End If
So I have this relatively simple problem: I need to create a button that once clicked will open the Save As dialog box and allow the user to save a copy of the current database where he wishes. The filename should contain todays date in DDMM format along with some pre-set text e.g. DDMM PresetText.
I have a few selected reports on an Access 2007 database that users can run. Is there a way for users to view the report, save as a PDF and automatically save a copy to a shared drive by modules/vba coding as an On Click event procedure?
I have a split form that's like a list of pending tasks. The data source is a linked SharePoint 2013 list where users submit requests. The user takes the information from each record and performs an action. When it is done, the user presses a button and the task status changes from "Pending" to "Processed". The form record source is based on a query that finds only records with a status of "Pending" so when the user changes the status of the task, it is removed from the list. It works fine except when there is only one task left in the work list. If the user processes the last task, the form refreshes and it goes to a new empty record and I get an error message that says I must enter a value into one of the required fields. I tried making the field non-required but it just creates an empty record in the table.
I want to save the changes to [form 1] before [Replacement Unit] opens. What and where do I enter code? Sorry, only just started to learn VB. (Using Acc97). Any help would be great! :)
I have a form that no longer saves data in some fields, but does save data in others. Nothing has changed, except that it no longer saves the new data which it did save at one time. I looked at the code behind the form, and the requery statement is still there.
I have a form which displays data from a table... however i have added a combo box which retrieves value from another table. I have also added a save record button. When i try to save the record. instead of saving the text in the combo box like i wanted. It saves the value 1,2 or 3 instead. How do i make it save the selected text instead?
I have created a Form to add customer payment entries to our database which will be added to the TRANSACTIONS table. I have a combo box which allows us to lookup our account number from the main CUSTOMERS table designated in the row source of the combo box. The rest of the fields use control sources from the TRANSACTIONS table which is the table that will contain the new records. I have added a Command Button that is labeled "Save Record" and it is programmed to do just that. My problem is that the records are being added to the TRANSACTIONS table even before I click my command button. I have the "date" feild in the form set to auto populate today's date. When I open the form, select an account number and tab to the date or any other field, and then close the form WITHOUT clicking the command button, the record is still added to the table. Can anyone help me to stop this from happening? I do not want anything added to the table until the "Save Record" button is clicked.
I have the Roger Jennings book: "Using MS Access 2003" and also the "MS Access 2003 Bible", but I am still unable to find an answer to my problem.

I have a form (Record Source = Report_TBL). I've brought in a subform (Record Source = Patient_TBL). I linked the 2 on the field PID. I've added a command button (Submit). OnClick for the Submit button I've added in the Event Procedure
Private Sub cmdSubmit_Click()
DoCmd.Save
End Sub
It only saves the data I've put in for the subform.
Can anyone give me any information on how to save all the information from both forms?
Hi I have a form (Quotation) and i would like when i press a command box to save it as a word document. I tried that with a command box and with a macro using OutputTo Action. I can save the Form But i can not have a proper understandable format. How this is possible?
My aim is to save it as .rtf for example, and attached to the customer mail.
Can someone please tell me how to make it so that a user must save on a form or there is nothing entered into the table? As it stands anyone who views the form creates a new record.
The DLookup works fine, just I want the value to be stored in the table. Please help me ! I have been browsing the internet for the whole day and i can't seem to find the right solution! Thanks!
I have a form. It has about 75+ bound text boxes, and about 25+ unbound text boxes that calculate values. And about a dozen command buttons. The code behind all this mess prints off in about a dozen pages.
Everything works. BUT, it takes around two or three minutes from clicking to open the form before the form appears. (There is no delay in moving between records.)
If I go into design mode, it takes anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes for it to save changes.
I noticed things really slowed down as I started copying controls.
Is there anything I can do to speed up this monster?
There is a public master database with a bunch of tables and data in it being maintained by another group. My boss wants to skim some information from this, add some of his own information to it, and save it in a completely separate .mdb file on our server.
I've used Access to link to the public database, built a custom table just for us, and built a form. The form uses bound controls on the left side to pull in data from the public database, and unbound controls on the right side for user entry of data. I coded a VBA save button that should save all controls (bound/imported as well as unbound/data entry) to our local table.
The unbound controls save just fine, but the bound controls are missing from the table. A new row is created with no problems, I get no error messages, but half the fields in the table are just blank.
Code: DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec Dim Rs As Recordset 'Dim SDB As Recordset 'Dim strSQL As String Set Rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Supervisor Table", dbOpenDynaset)

The other night I was playing around and deleted code from my database, which now seems to have stopped allowing me to continue to a blank form after I add a record....
It used to work, that once I pressed the save button it would then goto the same form but the form would have the same defaults as if id just opened the form.... now im getting #deleted
Is there any code I can put in the save button to get it back to the way it was before?
Hi, I have code for a command button that allows me to save the form information to 7 different tables primary key (the same primary key), owever when i close the form it resaves the information and i get a duplicate error msg. Is there anyway to get around this? Can I change what happens when the form is closed. i tried to apply this code to Form_Close() but to no avail.
I'm fairly new to Access and I'd appreciate some help. I've built a form with buttons to open new forms for that specific record (based on queries as all the data is held in a single table). This works fine until I try to add new records. At the moment the only way I can make this work is to add the new record, shut the original form before re-opening it and proceeding on to the other sections (via the buttons I mentioned).
If anyone could tell me how to get Access to save the record before it opens the other forms I'd really appreciate it.
I have a form which calculates alot of numbers. Im trying to figure out how to save the calculation to a table field. Is this possible? Can someone help me with a solution please
I have validation logic that runs to test whether certain fields are inputted properly etc on my form. I call these methods in the Before_Update of each form. But How do i actually STOP the update from happening? OR how do i stop the form from being closed? Right now, I just give all these warnings but the save still happens!
