Forms :: ADO Bound Recordsets In A Form / Subform Scenario
May 22, 2013
I have a form and subform. The main form shows some customer details, and the continuous sub form shows that customer's charity donations.The code below runs when the form opens, and binds ADO recordsets to the two forms. The binding appears to be successful.
However whatever I do I can't make the subform update correctly to show the relevant customer donations. For example, when I use the **'d lines to update the link child/master fields, I get a "Data Provider Could Not Be Initialized" error.
Code:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim cn As New ADODB.Connection
Dim rsCust As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim rsDons As New ADODB.Recordset
[code]...

I have a Main form with several sub forms on it the tables behind each form are related tables. The user enters data on the main form with the exception of one bound control then moves on to enter data on the sub forms On exiting the record or the main form I want to take data from several of the sub forms and add them together and enter result in the bound form on the main form. Because this bound control is not used to enter data in there are no event triggers to code to get this done.

My code is not working.
1. The code below should equal the Current Month
2. It does not close the form if no data.
PHP Code:
If DLookup("[CurMonth]", "tblEmpEvaluation") = Format(DateSerial(Year(Date), Month(Date), Day(Date)), "mmmm ")
  DoCmd.OpenForm "frmEvalNotice"
End IfÂ
PHP Code:
If DLookup("[CurMonth]", "tblEmpEvaluation") <> Format(DateSerial(Year(Date), Month(Date), Day(Date)), "mmmm ") Then 'No Data. NotWorking?
    DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmEvalNotice"
End IfÂ

I have a form based on a query. I'd like to add a search box to the top to look up values and then populate the rest of the form. I can't do it with the combo box wizard because the relevant (third) option doesn't show up, I assume that's because the form is based on a query not a table.
Any alternative method of adding a search?

I have a bound form that normally is opened via macro. Very straight forward just has the following in the where.
Code:
[userID]=[Forms]![Home]![txtSelectUser]
I'm trying to open the same form via doCmd.
Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmUserInformation", , , "UserID=" & Me.txtProblemID
I've msgbox'd the txtProblemID and the correct ID is being passed. Where I fall into an error is on the frmUserInformation's onLoad event which uses the ID form the frmUserInformation.txtUserID box. The error I get is "Syntax error (missing operator in query expression '[fldUserID]='."
Code:
strEndMonth = DLookup("fldDateExpiration", "qryUserExpirationDate", "[fldUserID]=" & Me.txtUserID)
What I've narrowed it to is the timing between the docmd.openform and the onload of the form. I've tried changing the onload to be on activate - and it just opens empty.
how to get the docmd to open the form correctly before the onload tries to fire?

I have a number of forms that are bound to recordsets as follows:
Dim rs As New adodb.Recordset
sqlQuery = "Select * from myTable"
rs.Open sqlQuery, sqlCNN, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic
Set Me.Recordset = rs
Set rs = Nothing
In Access 2003, users could open these forms and filter on basically any field by using the right click-> Text Filters functionality.
In Access 2010, this functionality appears to work (users can apply the filter and the Toggle Filter button in the ribbon shows a filter is applied), but all of the records are still visible in the form.
Any work-around that does not involve redesigning the form to be non-recordset bound?

I'm using Access 2007. I've created a table with two fields. "Novice and Recertification" as in combo box.
I put it on the form. Now the idea is when a user clicks Recertification, it shows up on the report. When the user clicks on Novice, it should be empty on report (Reason why I want to keep novice is so that we have a record of it.)
Now the challenge is I added another column, empty field for Novice and Recertification for Recertification. Thing is if I set the bound column, I select on an empty field on form and it will be empty on report. But I want the user to see Novice on the form and it must not show on the report.

So I'm not new to Access but I am to 2010. It has been a bit "challenging". Here's my first question:
1.) I'm trying to search on a field by using a command button. I basically want to click the button and the following message pops up: Enter MRN.
2.) When the MRN is entered, I would like the form to filter on all records that have this MRN.
3.) In old versions of Access, I would create a Macro for this and then call the Macro in the form.
4.) I've tried the FindRecord action in the Macro but it does not work. I actually came across several actions that don't seem to be working properly (getting error messages).
5.) In my head, this should be one of the EASIEST things to do. I've done this before in several different databases. I will admit it has been a few years since I have used Access for this (ie. building forms, macros etc.). I've primarly used it to pull in a data set and then run some queries to get the data I need quickly versus using Excel.

I have a form AddNewEquipment. This is bound to a table, EquipmentDetails.
EquipmentDetails has a Yes/No field, 'ParentChoice'. So when EquipmentDetails.ParentChoice = Yes, I want to open up a new text box, AddNewEquipment.ParentDescr, into which someone can put some text. This text I want to append as a new row in a different table, ParentList.ParentName. (that table also has an autonumber field)
I only want to do the save when I save the whole form.
Is this something like using an On Lost Focus event from the ParentDescr field which only invokes when the overall form save button is clicked? What would I put in the On Lost Focus event.

I have a report that generates 100 items in alphabetical order. All of the items are also displayed in a table. I have a bound form attached to the that table, and when the items appear they are not in alphabetical order. Therefore, it is a hassle typing in the data when the form will not appear in order, because instead of going in order I am flipping through pages. What is causing this to happen? And what can I do to fix this?

I have a Split form displaying parts information and have all data displayed from the table including an obsolete field which is a Yes/No checkbox.
I want to display ONLY unchecked fields on a button click. I have tried this code so far but it didn't seem to have any effect
Private Sub cmdCurrent_Click()
Me.chkObsolete.Visible = Nz(Me.chkObsolete.Value, True)
Me.Requery
End Sub
Commands:
- cmdCurrent = show all unchecked fields
- cmdShowAll = show all fields
- cmdSearch = filter based on textbox entry
Other: There is also a hyperlink in each field (on the form only) to open each individual record for editing.
Field in question is chkObsolete
Command in question cmdCurrent

Greetings, I have a pretty remedial question, basically I'd like to know how to get a form and its fields to render the change when you call a RecordSet.MoveNext or a MoveLast, basically mimicking the recordset control at the bottom of the form?

I am working on a web database with a form which is bound to an underlying web table where the submissions occur.My challenge is that the fields on the form get submitted to the table even before the submit button is clicked regardless of whether the form was completely filled.
My request is that I want the form to only submit to the submission table only when the submit button is clicked.When I searched on the net, the only solutions I got are VBA written code but my web database cannot use VBA code.
VBA code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private blnGood As Boolean
Private Sub cmdSave_Click()
blnGood = True
Call DoCmd.RunCommand(acCmdSaveRecord)
blnGood = False
End Sub
[code]....

Is there a common answer or design mistake that would cause a form to return a different (much higher) record set than that if the query is ran by itself. The query is the control source for the form.

What really is the best way, programming-wise and user experience-wise when presenting records in a form:
1) Use the form with sub-forms to show records. Add new records via a popup form and use recordsets in VBA to allow validating.
2) Use unbound controls on a form and populate with pure VBA recordsets. For data with more than one row use list boxes. A popup form used for adding new or editing etc using VBA.
3) Another I haven't thought of; new or a combination of above?

i have a subform on a form with Source Object="Query.myquery", my form is generating a sql string dynamically and assigning this sql string to the RecordSource property which works fine. But now if the user changes the width of the columns in the subform and close the form , a prompt is thrown asking if the "myquery" needs to be saved. I dont want to save the settings of "myquery" but at the same time avoid this modal dialog. If i use DoCmd.SetWarnings=False , i dont see the warning anymore BUT the query gets saved.
I am using "myquery" to just display column names in the subform when the forms loads and also without it i cant directly use RecordSource property in my code.
any suggestions?

Hope I am posting my question in the correct place. First of all I am entry level user in access, but knowledgeable in excel. As I am working with data containing over 65,000 rows I decided to use access however I don’t know how create a function that will work give the same result as (vlookup) in excel. Scenario case: first column “Serial Number” contain a list of serial numbers, 2nd column will be fed manually or by a bar-scan, the third column should show the value of “1” if the value in the 2nd column exists in the first column else a value of “0” should appear
The validation formula in excel looks like: =IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(B2,$A$2:$A$65000,1,FALSE))=TRU E,0,1)
Serial Number Confirmed Serial Validation

141614662

All -
I have another update query that is basically looking at all of the Enrollment ID's that are associated with a ClassID. If each EnrollmendID has a Graduation date and the Graduated check = yes, then I want to place the current date in the Closed Date field for the Class.
I can get a select Query that shows all of the classes and all of the EnrollmentID's but I'm not sure how to tell the query, "For Each ClassID, If All EnrollmentID's have a Graduated Date and Graduated = Yes, Then Class Closed Date = Date()"

In the test db included the report works fine if every Rep (representative or User/Admin) has records assigned. But, for example, if I go to the table and re-assign the first record to another user/admin (pick list in the table field [Rep]), then `User01’ will have no record assigned at all. Then an error message appears: The Microsoft Office Access database engine does not recognize 'User01' as a valid field name or expression. And no report is produced.
I wanted to try solving it with the info on thread searched by: "cross tab query reports", (13th result) but to be honest I really don’t know how to implement.

This post is really aimed at someone that has experience of network databases and the problems they can pose but if you can help at all that would be great!
I work for an insurance company and we have created a database for registering complaints on. The one we currently use is a single .mdb file which can be shared by up to 60 people at any one time. This is creating a lot of problems when the queries and some VBA code are run. I therefore made a server file which is just an mdb file with data tables in and NO forms or queries. This file is stored on a shared drive on the network server. We then created a client file which contains all of the forms and queries and code. This file contains linked tables to the server so when data is entered into the form, it "Sends" it to the server mdb file. The client is installed on each of the local machines c:. The problem with this was that if we made a change to the database, we would need to reinstall the client on every single user pc. This would of took ages. I therefore made an auto-update function that checked the version number on the server and if the server number was greater than the client number, a simple .bat fiile was run which copied the updated client file from the network to the relevant users local disk.
The problem we have now is that our IT department are concered that if we make a change to the client and all the staff log in at 9am for example, it will start doing multiple copying of a file around 8mb in size to around 60 machines. They are only running on a 2meg pipe so this could cause some problems. We are not looking to change the client & server idea but does anyone know if this will have a big impact and infact if the updates for 60 machine is the equivalent or lesser of 60 people sharing the single file i mentioned earlier. If the IT dept are happy with 60 users accessing the same file at the same time, which they currently are, why are they unhappy with it updating these machine using the new method.
Would really apopreciate any thoughts anyone has..
Thanks a lot.

In the interest of speed in my current project, I'm working with bound forms, where in the past I have developed mainly using unbound forms. Hence, the word novice in my subject line.
Is there a way to do the following, and is it typically done?
The layout: A typical, record by record data entry main form, with a linked datasheet subform. The underlying query contains person's names and other associated data. The subform is a datasheet with an alphabetical listing of the person's names.
My goals (2 of them):
1. To have the datasheet subform go to the record selected on the main form.
2. To have the main form also go to the record selected in the subform.
The forms' On Current events conflicting with one another, as the subform's Current event fires whenever the main form's does.

Can someone help, please?
I have a simple form to add a new record.
Form is
Single
Bound
DataSource is a simple select query which includes all records in a table.
All I want to do is validate what is typed into the textbox.
I have the following code in the BeforeUpdate Event of txtTest:
Private Sub txtTest_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If Me.txtTest = "Test" Then
Cancel = vbCancel
Me.txtTest.Undo
End If
End Sub
It works fine on an Edit but when I type "Test" into a new record and try to move or save I get the error: The value in the field or record violates the validation rule blah blah BLAH.
Why doesn't vbCancel kill this nonsense?

Hi All,
I have a main bound form which has tabs.On some tabs i m calling the subforms which are also bound forms.
I am facing a problem in which access automatically saves the data eevn if u dont want to save it.In my subforms i have save button to save the data ..i am also doing some validations there
but if the user is filling some information and then he hits the another tab the data gets stored automatically.

Please help,
I have a form with a subform in it. The main form has a combobox, called vendor. The subform shows all software.
When i select a vendor, i want only the software for that vendor to show in the subform.
What I am trying to do is set up the link child fields and link master fields so that this works. However, i am getting an error saying, 'Can't build a link between unbound forms'.
I have checked to make sure that relationships exist between the vendors and Software tables but the problems persist.
What should i do here???

Hi all,
My current database (built with a lot of help and sample code form this site..thankyou to all for their advice) tracks the escalations we receive into the business but as we have used it more and more I have started experiencing a massive performance issue.
I basically have a main table that captures the basic details, reference, product, escalation source, escalation reason etc, and these are captured from combo box selections (so only capturing the id numebr of the row in the combo box)
My main problem seems to be a table I have that we have linked, via the unique escalationID, that we cna add notes for each escalation.
So for instance a particular escalations can 1 or 50 notes (or more) depending on the work involved to resolve.
This table now has thousands of entries and is about 10Mb on it;s own.
It seems that when I open my bound forms the query is having to scan not only the main table, but also all of the notes in the journal table.
My question is,
Would I be better to -
1 - Use unbound forms and pull the data via a recordset call or
2 - could I use a query that captures everything for only the open escalations and then have my main form query that query or
3 - have the form load but do not link the journal table and have the form pull the data in seperately ?
Hope that makes sense and appreciate any help on this one.
