Forms :: Access 2002 - Modifying Properties Of Subform Fields

Feb 2, 2014

I have a Form with embedded Subform, everything works well as far as moving through records. Scrolling through records on main table via Form brings up correct records of child table on Subform, so the link between the 2 tables is done properly.

I use this logic to lock/unlock a field in the subform.

Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
If IsNull(Me.Parent!Spec2) Then
Me!Value2.BorderStyle = Transparent
Me!Value2.SpecialEffect = Flat
Me!Value2.BackStyle = Transparent

[Code] ...

I confirmed with debug that the logic does set the properties properly. They are updated once and that's that. Any further passes through the logic do not update on the form. They do pass through correctly, changes are just ignored.

It doesn't matter if I use the logic from the Form and refer down, or in the Subform and refer up, the Subform never gets updated. I tried Repaint, Refresh, Requery, nothing works. I cannot count the permutations I've tried.

Modifying An Icon's Properties

Mar 21, 2006

I have an Access database split into FE/BE. For the front end, each user has his own directory on the lan. The directory is named with the UserName.

I've created an installation program in Access. It basically installs the icon on the user's desktop using Environ("UserName"). It also installs an Excel file the program needs on the hard drive.

Here's the problem...Right now, the installation program grabs the shortcut off the lan and installs it, but that shortcut has one user's UserName hard coded as the target. That one piece of information needs to change for each person. Is there a way for the program to modify the target based on the username of the person running the installation program? Without this piece, I need to visit every user after he runs the installation program and modify the properties of the new icon to point to his specific directory.

Thanks for any help you can provide!!

Tables :: Modifying MS Access Database - Direct Order Or Placement Of Fields Within Table

Feb 5, 2013

Is it possible to direct the placement/order new of fields when modifying an Ms Access database in code?

I need to modify the schema of an MS Access database via code - but I want to be able to direct the order or placement of the fields within the tables.

For example - if TableOne has 3 fields - Field10, Field20 and Field30.

I would like to be able to add say Field15 between Field10 and Field20 - not just append it to the end of existing fields.

I believe it is possible as you can do it within Ms Access itself. I can use ADO, DAO, ADOX or SQL for that matter - but it seems all of these offer no placement of the field within the table.

Forms :: Setting Properties In A Subform

Mar 9, 2015

I am trying to get the properties of enabled and locked set in a continuious subform depending on a yes/no field in each record. I have tried using the answer in thread 160062, but this only works when it is not a subform (unless I have done something stupid!)If the main form is frmMain and the continuious subform is frmSub, where am I going wrong with this code which is in the subforms Class Objects?

Private Sub Form_Current() If Me.MaterialIssue = True Then CRMSignOffDate.Enabled = True
CRMSignOffBy.Enabled = True CRMSignOffDate.Locked = False
CRMSignOffBy.Locked = False Else CRMSignOffDate.Enabled = False
CRMSignOffBy.Enabled = False CRMSignOffDate.Locked = True
CRMSignOffBy.Locked = True End IfEnd Submany.

Forms :: Locking Row Source Fields In Properties Menu?

Mar 5, 2013

Is there a way to lock the row source fields in the properties menu as currently it keeps creating exceptions (WHERE) onto the end of the SQL this is subsequently causing me major issues in the view of the form/datasheet as fields keep appearing as blank when there is actually values stored within the table.

General :: Calculated Fields - Reading And Modifying Records

Aug 2, 2012

I am new to Access and this is likely a very elementary question. I recently created a database to track status of projects including progress and funding. The table contains several fields that record various aspects of funding. These fields are added (very simply) and create a calculated field that is a summation of those fields. The table currently contains approx 60 records. The calculated field functions for 2 or 3 records and will not calculate further. I have tried this in a form as well as a query. The form will change the same number, 2 or 3 records. When the query is run the result shows only the 2 or 3 records. What I am doing that is only reading and modifying those records?

Subform Properties

Feb 9, 2005

Am sure this is an easy question but I'm missing something:

How in the heck are you supposed to get to the subform properties box. The only way I know is to click on the very thin border area surrounding the form and then try and right click your way to properties. There has to be an easier way. Usually I have to fight my way to the properties box as the area loses focus by the time I right click and I have to reselect and try and right click again...ARGH!

SubForm RecordSet Properties

Mar 3, 2006

So far I had several Subforms which would open in a mainForm depending on the combo box value. My combo box values were exactly the same as subform names so that I can easily change subform.recordsource = combo.text and it would show the proper form. Now, I'm thining, instead of having all those forms, I could have only one form and just changing it's recordSource property with the sma combo box, but this time, combo.value would be the name of the SQL string that the form needs to take as it's recordSet.

What I want to know is, if this will work at all, and if it would, where do I have to set my vars...in the Form_load()?!:confused:

tnx

Forms :: Automatically Updating Fields In A Subform From Another Subform

Feb 11, 2014

I am having trouble figuring out the method to automatically update some fields in SubForm from 2 other SubForms.I have attached 2 pics, the first GradeEntry1 shows what the tblTopic_Class_Grade form looks like after I manually enter everything into it. GradeEntry2 is what the form looks like when I fill out the Form starting at the top.

I'd like the tblTopics_Class_Grade form auto-populate the TrainingClassID (it currently does this), TopicClassID, StudentID, TrainingTopicID based off the entry from the above forms.My end goal is that I need to have a grade for each student on each training topic for each class. Like:

Class1-Student1-Topic1-GradeX
Class1-Student1-Topic2-GradeX
Class1-Student2-Topic1-GradeX
Class1-Student2-Topic1-GradeX

Forms :: Modifying Charts With VBA

May 6, 2013

I have a bunch of charts in my forms, and my boss wants to be able to adjust axes. I have added a context menu that brings up a little form and takes values that are then thrown into the graph by way of a function. URL....Here's the current code:

Code:
Public Function AdjustTREFAxis()
'See form fTREFaxis
Dim objChart1 As Object
Dim objAxis1 As Object

[code]....

notes:
-ignore the global vars, they are a temporary measure.
-"Graph19" I know, not good. I never expected to call it in code though , I'll fix it later
-the while loop keeps the rest of the code from running until the axes have been submitted.

Ok, so this code works for the x and y1 axes. I assumed that Axes(3) would iterate to the Y2 axis, it does not...I also found that after you change the axis the changes are persistent for the graph even upon repaint/requerying it. This is problematic and I need a way to set an On Load event that resets the graph to "autoscale"

Lacking that, how to access the Y2 axis, or how to reset the axes to autoscale that would be keen.

Forms :: Unable To View Object Properties In Form Design View (Access 2010)

May 16, 2014

Why the ability to view the properties of an object within a form is not available when you double click on it in design view?

I was happily working away double clicking on a command button to edit some code when for some reason the next time I tried to edit it did not open up for me.

I was unable to access it even by right clicking on the object & selecting properties as that also appears to be disabled, not greyed out or anything but just does nothing when selected.

Have I inadvertently changed a setting somewhere that prevents the properties from being displayed?

Modifying Access Graph To Create Bins

Nov 22, 2013

I have been struggling with modifying a graph that I have made into a counting graph, I have wasted over 4 hours trying to do this modification unsuccessfully.

I am attaching 4 pictures, The Depth_Ranges Table Visual is the query which creates graph 1 you can also see in the additional attached picture of the design view the code that creates this graph 1.

Now I need to add a field in the Design view of that query in order to have a result of the graph 2 that you see in the picture.

Basically, creating counter that will count how many values are in each bin labels that you can see on the picture of graph 2.

Modifying Access Pass Through Query Using Querydefs

Feb 8, 2012

I have a pass through query which I want to add a parameter to the end.

The pass through query is very long and has to crate temporary tables on SQL Server in order to generate the required output.

I do not want to retype or try and paste all of this code into a vba module.

Can I use querydefs or something in the querydefs collection to extract the code into a new query and append my parameter along the way?

A simple way of looking at this could be

querytemplate:-

"set nocount off

Select UWREF
from policy
where UWREF like '"

parameter:- (picked up from a text box on a form)
"ABC123"

additional text to follow:-
"%' set nocount on"

In a nutshell that's all I want to do, but as stated beforehand the real world query has a shed load of other code.

Problems When Using A DB Created In Access 2002 (XP) In Access 2003

Jun 17, 2005

I have an Access DB that I created in Access XP. It works perfectly when used in Access XP. When used in an Access 2003 environment some of the functions don't work anymore. I have users who use Office XP and users who use Office 2003. Does anybody know how to make this DB work in Access 2003 without having to do wholesale code changes?

I have already changed the security to "Low" to bypass the security feature built in in Jet 4.0 but it didn't help. I might have to uninstall Windows XP SP2 to make it work because I know that the application works in an Office 2003 environment with Windows XP SP1 only. But I'm trying to avoid having to uninstall XP SP2 because it's a pain. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

My workstation environment is as follows:

OS: Windows XP SP2
Office: Office 2003 SP1
Jet: 4.0

Modules & VBA :: Filter Properties Not Working First Time On Subform

Jan 13, 2015

I have a form that uses a listbox. I can select multiple items and then update a subform. When I press a button with VBA and use the filter property on the subform for the first time, nothing happens. When I press the button a second time, it does - and it works thereafter with different selections. It only happens that first time, after loading the form and pressing the button for the first time.

I have tested that the list items are accessible via the vba variables and stepping through my code and the problem starts with the filter properties.

the statement:

Me.sbfrmCluster.Form.FilterOn = True
Me.sbfrmCluster.Form.Filter = strFilter

is not switched on first time (I have tried a requery and refresh statement after this). When I step through the code the first time, the FilterOn property remains false. A second button press and it is fine.

Access 2000 To 2002

Jul 8, 2005

I need to develop an application that works in 2002. I tried to take a 2002 mdb, convert in 2002 to 2000 and try it on my machine at home. It didn't work and I couldn't find the missing reference. I then took an mdb that was originally a 2000 format, converted it to 2002 and it worked fine. So what I want to do is develop the app in 2000 and just convert it over to 2002. This allows me to work on it from home which is pretty important since my deadline is creeping closer. Am I ok doing this or am I courting disaster? Or is there another way of doing this?

Access 2002 Vs 2003

Dec 11, 2005

I'm looking to purchase Access 2002 because that is the version we use at work. The problem is, when I search the net for deals, it is more economical to purchase Office XP 2003 OEM instead of Access 2002.

Is Office XP - version 2002 unless it says Office XP 2003?

Or should I just purchase Office XP 2003 and just convert before I take my database to work? I hear the difference between 2002 and 2003 is mostly the VB coding functionality.

BTW I am looking at the following deal..Hope its not a scam

Access 2003 And 2002

Jan 31, 2006

I have an application which I did in Access 2003 and it uses "Microsoft Access 11.0 Object Library" and also "Microsoft Outlook 11.0 Object Library".

I have converted it to 2002 format from database utilities where it says (2002-2003).

Now when this application is opened in Access 2002 the refrences are "Microsoft Access 10.0 Object Library" and "Microsoft Outlook 10.0 Object Library", now the code starts throwing various errors.

Now what is the way out to avoid these errors? Should I copy the 11.0 libraries and add those in refrences on the machines where access 2002 is available.

ps: moving to access 2003 is not feasible.

Thanks in advance for you help.

Best Regards

Access 2003, 2002

Nov 14, 2006

Hi All,

I did some initial searching but I am not sure what to search for. I have inherited an access application for maintenance. I am a C# developer by trade so developing code and ui inside the db is kind of weird to me not slamming it, just a little confused with the paradigm. Anyway, I had successfully added functionality to the code base as the per requirements. I made the changes using 2003. No database conversion dialog ever showed so I figured everything was cool. However the client is using 2002 and when they launch it the MDI parent shows the correct title but the form that is opened by default never shows up.

Any help would be extremely appreciated.

Thanks.
Bill

Access 2002 / 2003

Mar 20, 2007

My Access program crashes frequently. I tried the 'Repair Office' function, but that has made no difference. On checking, I see that it's Access 2002, not 2003. Can I still get Access 2003? Should I upgrade to that? I don't want to buy the new Office 2007 suite.
