Form With Combobox To Search Record
Mar 4, 2005
Hi,
I am trying to build a form that allows the user to INPUT stock as it arrives. This is simple with a product form that shows all the products in the table. I just go to the quantity field and change it.
But, I want to create a 'search' function in the field. I want to allow the user to type in the Product number. Then the Product name, Product Price and Quantity is AUTOMATICALLY displayed.
The user can then change this value (items in stock).
Thats pretty much the jisst of what I wanna do.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.

When you use a combobox to search values in the form - and someone searches for a value that isn't there - the form just defaults to the first entry. Is there a way of putting a message box that says "This is a new patient" (or something like that). The NotInList event doesn't work - any ideas??

What i want is to have a combo box on a continuous form that as you type it filters the Query it is based on using a Like *. and drops downs so the user can see the updated list after each key press? Is this possible?

A continuous form with fields Operation bounded integer, LibelBx unbounded combobox string with two columns as Sorter (Int), Phrase(str).
A table TargetTbl with field Operation(Int). A table TextArrayTbl with fields Phrase(str), Sorter(Int).
Relationship between TargetTbl and TextArrayTbl is one to many joined on Operation = Sorter.
I am trying to display the form. RecordSource = TargetTbl. LibelBx.RowSource = TextArrayTblQy.
The idea is to display every record from TargetTbl with Operation equal to Sorter from TextArrayTbl. The LibelBx combobox should display the Sorter and Phrase.
The queries are:
Code:
TextArrayTblQy = "SELECT TargetTbl.Booking, TargetTbl.Operation, TargetTbl.CodeBilan, TargetTbl.Debit, TargetTbl.Credit, TargetTbl.Total, TextArrayTbl.Sorter, TextArrayTbl.Phrase
FROM TargetTbl INNER JOIN TextArrayTbl ON TargetTbl.[Operation] = TextArrayTbl.[Sorter];"
Code:
TextArrayTblQy = "SELECT TargetTblQuery.Sorter, TargetTblQuery.Phrase
FROM TargetTblQuery, TextArrayTbl, TargetTbl
WHERE (([TargetTblQuery].[Sorter]=[TargetTbl].[Operation]));"
Code:
TargetTblQuery = "SELECT TextArrayTbl.Sorter, TextArrayTbl.Phrase
FROM TargetTbl, TextArrayTbl
WHERE (((TextArrayTbl.Sorter)=[TargetTbl].[Operation]));"
I managed to get the TexArrayTbl displayed in LibelBx combobox, but it displays all the records whereas I want it to display only the ones with Sorter = Operation.

I have a database with a Supply Receipt Form. The first field in the form is a combobox for the user to select a material/supply. I'd like for the form to open to a new record every time. When I use:
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
in the Form On Open property, I lose the ability to select the material/supply. Same thing happens when I set the Data Entry property to Yes.

I'm creating a simple database to document our supplier's contact information, addresses etc. However, when I create a combo box on the form and try to enter a record not on the list it gives the message "The Text You Entered Isn't an Item in the List".

I have a search form containing an unbound text and three search button.
You can search by customer Number, Last Name, or Order Number by entering customer#, last name, or order# and clicking on the appropriate button. The problem I'm having is to get the value (either customer Number, Last Name, or Order Number) from the unbound text called txtSearch to find a matching value then open the second form called frm_CustomerInformation containing those value.

I've seen comboboxes before that by typing the first letter of the word your looking for it will go to the first word matching that letter, but then by typing that letter again it will go to the next word starting with that letter:
Such as in a "Choose Your State" box by typing "M" it selects Massachusetts then by typing m again it selects Maryland, the third time it selects Maine... and so on. I would like to add this to a cbobox on a form but havent had any luck. I have searched the forum but didnt find anything pertaining to this. Any help or suggestions on where to get this info is greatly appreciated.

I know there are threads on this issue but I have searched and can't find them. I'm not coming up with the right search string so I apologize for asking something I know I should be able to find. I;m trying to find the code for typing the first few letters of a word-Name, city, etc in a combobox and have combobox bring up with those letters. Can someone tell me code or suggest the correct search string to search the forum?

Hi All,
Another totally newbie question here but I'm still trying to figure a few things out. Leave it to me to dive head-first into something without first doing research.
In my database I have a main form where I enter records for customers. Now, I also have a second form that is used to search for records. In this second form I want to be able to first filter the record search with a drop down menu that searches by items such as address, customer name, or city, etc. That way if the person doing the search doesn't know the name of the person they can search by address or vica versa. Once the user selects the search type they enter the name, or address, or whatever they're basing their search on and then click on a "Search" button. I have this button working so that it opens a report with a table which shows all the records pertaining to that search.
My first question is how can I get this to work properly because right now I keep getting the results of past searches, in fact I think it gives me all the records rather than the ones I want.
Once I figure this out, with your help, I'll have another question for you. hehe
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

I have a continuous form based on a query. In the form footer I have placed a text box and a command button. One of the text boxes on the continuous form is bound to the VIN field in the query. I would like the user to be able to place the last 8 digits of a particular VIN in the text box in the footer and click the command button to bring that particular record to the top.....

I'm creating a database for work to do with health and safety. What I'm trying to do it create a form, where I search for a certain employee (by surname or id) to add a new record against that name.
I've got an employees table and a tool box talk table, they are linked by NI Number. This is what it looks so far (although the records are showing in the form).

I have a database of daily reports.
There are three shifts per day. 0800-1600, 1600-2400, and 2400-0800.
I ran the combobox wizard and asked it to "find a record based on the value I selected in my combo box."
I chose (and I know these are misnamed fields) field 3 which is the date field and field 2 which is the shift field.
Then I tested the combo box.
I click on the down arrow of the combo box the date and shift is displayed. For some reason tho when I select a date/shift, eg. 12/12/2004 | 1600-2400 the right record pops up as far as the date is concerned but the 2400-0800 shift record comes up. I select 11/25/2004 | 0800-1600 and again the right date but the same 2400-0800 record is displayed. Why is the right date but the wrong shift being displayed?

I have uploaded an example of my database
As you can see there are two tables and two forms.
What i want is for a user to view or enter data for a record on the first form.
And then when they are done they click the button to open up form2.
What i want to happen is for the company name/id from the record in form1 to be searched for when form2 opens and to display only the data for that record when opened. If no data exists for that record in form2/table2 then for it too create a record for that company when form2 is opened from form1
hope this makes sense and you can help
Please note this is just an example so if there is wrong naming conventions and such please ignore if there is as i just wanted to display quickly what i want to acheive

Attached is a snippet from my search form.
I have a search on Last Name, and in this example, I use Last Name beginning with "m". That pulls up two matching, filtered results, Mickey and Mimi.
All the controls in the detail section are disabled because I don't want the users to make any edits here. I want them to click on a row and that will take the Record Number from that row and open up a Detail form. This is where they will make their edits.
I've set the On Click property for the Detail section to run a procedure. The event procedure works fine if the user clicks on the selected row. Notice the record selector in the picture is pointing to Mimi. If the user clicks on Mimi, everything works fine. If the user wants to open Mickey's record, they have to move the record selector first and then click on Mickey (2 clicks). If they don't move the record selector first, nothing happens.
Is there a way to change the selected record when the user clicks anywhere in the row? Again, all the controls in the row are disabled, so this doesn't happen automatically like it normally would. I considered putting a command in the On Click property, but that event procedure seems to only run if the user clicks on the selected row. I just need the selected row to change if the user clicks on a row other than the currently selected row. How do I do that?

Hello,
Below is the main data entry form of my application. We disrtibute a product called MC Cloth to Shops to display. After a month we visit again and take stock of products sold, replenish and the shop pays for the products sold.
the Database keeps a record of the shop, products displayed, refilled, sold and respective payments.
The dtabase and the form is loaded in Handheld (PDAs) by the sales people who enter data during the visit and then synchronise with a master on return
http://affiliatesexcel.com/MC_main_form.jpg
I need to sum up values in one field for example MC Refill from the first record till the new record and show it in another field, for example MC Refill Total
Another Forum answer to my question about summing up values in one field to be used as default in a second field showed that a search needs to be done based on base field (in this case NAME of customer).
However since I use a COMBO BOX to enter this NAME field values and then select it from a pull down list to create new records, I have this value ONLY in the very first Record. All subsequent records have all other values where as the NAME value remain empty.
NameCust_IDRecordNumAddress
whs01ggggggggg
02qqqqqqq
03mmmmm
04nnnnnnnnn
05ooooooo
06pppppp
Kickstart08xyz
09898989898
012mmp
013qty
This makes the search function impossible based on the NAME value.
As a solution I would like to AUTOMATICALLY copy the NAME value to a second field (for example CUST_ID) during creation of each NEW RECORD so that I can then base my search on this field instead of the Name field (with empty values)
Currently I have the code below which works correctly for entering NEW Data and for recalling by Pull Down .
(I have tried a mehod which entered the values for
all records but this clutter up the Pull down with SAME
Name for repeated records making the PULL DOWN unusable.)
I have tried to copy the Name value to Cust_ID value for each new record but the code gives an error.
+++++++++++
Code:
Private Sub Name_Combo_AfterUpdate()
' This procedure tries to find the matching product's record.
' If the matching record is found, the procedure goes to it.
' If the record isn't found, the focus stays on the current record.
Dim Criteria As String ' This is the argument to the FindFirst method.
Dim MyRS As Recordset ' Recordset used to search.
Dim ComboName As String ' The name of the company to search for.
Const IDYES = 6
Set MyRS = Me.RecordsetClone
' Build the criteria.
ComboName = Chr$(34) & Screen.ActiveControl & Chr$(34)
Criteria = "[Name]=" & ComboName
' Perform the search.
MyRS.FindLast Criteria
If MyRS.NoMatch Then
Response = MsgBox("Could not find the Supplier Name: " & ComboName & " Do you wish to register a New Supplier: " & ComboName & " in this Database?", 4 + 48)
If Response = IDYES Then
MyRS.AddNew ' Create new record.
MyRS("Name") = Screen.ActiveControl
MyRS.Update ' Save changes.
MyRS.Move 0, MyRS.LastModified ' Go to new record
Me.Bookmark = MyRS.Bookmark ' Go to new record
Else
GoTo Endsub
End If
Else
MyRS.AddNew ' Create new record.
MyRS("Name") = Screen.ActiveControl
MyRS("Cust_ID") = MyRS("Name")
MyRS.Update ' Save changes.
MyRS.Move 0, MyRS.LastModified ' Go to new record
Me.Bookmark = MyRS.Bookmark ' Go to new record
'Me.Bookmark = MyRS.Bookmark
Dim recNo As Long
' for this to work there cannot be any RecordNumber with a value of 0
' it finds the highest record number for the name in the combo box
' and returns 0 and exits if no record found.
recNo = Nz(DMax("[RecordNum]", "Miracle_Cloth_Main", "[Cust_ID]='" & Me.Cust_ID & "'"), 0)
Debug.Print "RecordNo: " & recNo & " and Name: '" & Me.Name_Combo & "'"
If recNo = 0 Then
Exit Sub
End If
Me.Text90.SetFocus
DoCmd.FindRecord "'" & recNo & "'", acAnywhere, , acSearchAll, , acCurrent
End If
Endsub:
MyRS.Close
End Sub
+++++++++++++++++++++++
The question is is there an easier way to
achieve the summing function ?
Any help is greatly appreciated as always.

When you put a combo box to search the values in a form what happens if there are more than one (in my case) name that matches the criteria. ie: if you search for Smith and there are 10 people with the surname of Smith it brings up the first record. is there a way of doing adding a "search again' function so you can look for another Smith?

I am currently working on a project in access 2010 and I am having a search for record dilemma. I have a main form that has a subform in it under a tab control. I place a search box at the top of the form so that user could select either the ID, the internal case number, and/or the reviewer name in the text boxes to search the record.
I have tried the using the search for record macros and the convert the macros to VBA and possibly write so extra coding for calling the subform into the search but nothing seems to work in getting the search in sync between the main form an the subform. VBA code that will look for same record in both forms.
The reason for the tab control is because depending on the data entered the users switch between mid section data about case and so one set of info goes into one tbl and the other goes into another, but the subform that I am referring to in this question is being generated from the same tbl as the main form.

I created Advanced search (Multi- Field) form and its work perfect but I want to add a combo box for search [Date Removed] and the options is "Active" and "Inactive".
my table include:
[Location]
[Date Installed]
[Installed by]
[EquipmentTag]
[Date Removed]
...
The users may not enter [Date Removed] which mean its Null ( also which mean in my project company / Combo box its "Active" ).
In another hand, if users enter [Date Removed] which mean it's not Null ( also which mean in my project company / Combo box its "Inactive").
In short, if user chose "Active" it will search for nulls/empty column in [Date Removed]
if user chose "Inactive" it will search for filled column in [Date Removed]
The code is attached:-
Private Function BuildFilter() As Variant
Dim varWhere As Variant
Dim tmp As String
tmp = """"
Const conJetDate = "#mm/dd/yyyy#"
[Code] .....

I have generated a combobox search for my form and I am able to select names that are different and the information is generated on the form. However, when I have two names that have the same last name my selection will default to the primary key instead of the name I selected in the combobox. Here is the code I am using:
Here is my RowSource: SELECT [Client Info].CltLname, [Client Info].CltFname, [Client Info].DOB, [Client Info].[Last 4 SSN] FROM [Client Info] ORDER BY [Client Info].CltLname, [Client Info].CltFname;
I have run a query to sort by CltLname and then by CltFname
Private Sub cboClientSearch_AfterUpdate()
'Moves to Customer Name text box and
'finds the record of whatever name is selected in the combo box
DoCmd.ShowAllRecords
Me!CltLname.SetFocus
DoCmd.FindRecord Me!cboClientSearch
'Set value of combo box equal to an empty string
Me!cboClientSearch.Value = ""
End Sub
how to get the combobox to display what I have selected instead of defaulting to the earliest primary key associated with the same last name?

This is what the search box must do:
- Searches 3 fields (StudentID, FirstName, LastName) and jumps to the relevant record.
The closer to the search box in the navigation bar below, the better, so this is what I would really like too.
- A repeat click would take me to the next result/record (if any) with the same criteria
- Instant search as soon as I start typing

I have a form which displays the records from a query (i have included a picture of this form) and allows me to filter them and create a report from the filter.
I'd like to be able to select a record with the record selectors (or preferably without) - and then go onto edit it in a new window and save the edit...
If possible also to select a record with or without record selectors and click a button to delete the record

Input box Search problem. I have been using the following to find a record in my frmMain using an Input Box:
Private Sub cmdClientIdSearch_Click()
'Searches for Client by ID number
Dim rs As Object
Dim strCriteria As String
strCriteria = InputBox("Please enter Client ID" & vbCr & "Do not type leading zeros")
[Code] ....
It works great if I run it from a command button from frmMain. But, if frmMain is open and I run it from a command button on my switchboard, I get the following error message:
Run Time error 7951. You entered an expression that has an invalid reference to the Recordset Clone Property. I tried inserting a command to open frmMain in the first line, even before the two Dim statements, but I get the same result.
