Forms :: How To Select Item In A List Box Using VBA
Dec 30, 2014I want to select an item in a listbox that has a specified value when I open the form that contains this listbox. Most I've found describes selecting records based on their index value but I want to select an item according to the actual value that's displayed in the listbox. For example, the first number below is the index value, the 2nd is the number I'm interested in and the 3rd is another column in the listbox:
0 1 12345
1 2 33256
2 4 36280
I'm using the OpenArgs property to pass the value (a long integer primary key) to the opening form but I don't know the syntax or correct terminology for ensuring the specified row is selected in the listbox. At present, using the above example, if I want to select the row with the value 2, it's selecting the 3rd row rather than the 2nd.
Forms :: Remove List Item From Combo Box After Use

Forms :: Clearing Item List From 2nd Form
Feb 26, 2014My main form has a list box - user selects an item in the list box for editing. The selected item displays in a text box on the subform where the editing is to be done. User than makes corrections to the text box and clicks a button to save the changes. I have all of this working. But I can't figure out how to update the main form on this save button.
What is happening right now is the main form is not updating at all and the original selection in the list box is still highlighted. If I click within the list box, the list box updates with the correct entry.
What I need to happen is when the save button is clicked, that the listbox updates and the selection in the list box is deselected and then set focus on another text box that is on the main form.
(I was doing this as 2 separate forms and the edit form opened after the user selected the item and clicked a button (kept the first form open but not visible and based the text box on the list box) This worked but again when the user saved and returned to the first form even though I was able to setfocus to the text box, the list box kept the selection highlighted.)

COMBO BOX : Specifying Item Not In List
Jun 22, 2006Hi everyone,
I have a form with a field named TREATMENT with the following options :-
1 Cryotherapy
2 Radiotherapy
3 Chemotherapy
4 None
5 Other (specify)
If the 5th option (Other) is selected, the user is required to specify what 'Other' represents.
I have created a combo box with the first 4 options and in instances of 'Other' the user can enter specific treatment that is not in the list (1 to 4).
What I would like to do is whenever the user enters a value that is not on the list (1 to 4), I would like to insert the word OTHER in front of the value entered. In other words all values not on the list will be prefixed by 'OTHER'.
E.G. if 'Surgery' is entered, I would like the value 'OTHER : Surgery' to be stored in the Treatment field of the table.
This will help in the generation of statistics from the table.
Any suggestions??
Many thanks in advance.

Is It Possible To Select The Same Item Twice Using A MultiSelect List Box
Jun 29, 2007I would like to be able to create a recipe (saved in its own table) by pulling items from a multiselect list box (from the raw materials table) but which allows me to add the same ingredient more than once.
I work for a chemical manufacturing company and we need to track the cost of goods by recipe (final product), by linking the ingredients (where the cost of the raws are associated) to the final prodcut. Several of our products need to have chemicals added in the beginning, but then again at the end of the procedure unlike normal kitchen recipes.
(I sure hope I don't have to learn VBA . . . I'm totally new at Access!)
Thanks in advance for your help.
Updating New Item Into A Combo Box List
Aug 24, 2006Hi,
I am using a combo box in my form. It is a growing combo box allowing new entries to be entered to create a growing list.
When new entries are made to the combo box list they are only displayed when I quit the form and then return to it. Is there any way I could allow the combo box list to grow dynamically rather than having to get the user to quit the form and then return to it?
Many Thanks

Combo Box And Selection Of Item In That List.
Dec 12, 2006Hello,
Didnt know where to start or what direction to head in. I have a combo box on one of my forms. It works fine, but would am looking for an added feature.
I am looking to get the following started:
There are 5 items in the list of my combo box. If the user selects the item called "Lost Opportunity", then how do I get an additional combo box to show up underneath it with reasons the sales opportunity was lost.
Then the reasons why would be in the additional box and they would have to select one...my work wants it so that if they lose the sale, they must provide a reason for that loss of business.
Any help in a direction would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Have Combo Box Show First Item On List
Oct 20, 2004I have made a few cascading combo-boxes that dynamically change based on the data entered into the field above them.. Example:
A SKU is entered, the combo-boxes pull the information for that sku from one or more tables (using SQL Query).
Now... I am having trouble getting these fields to show the first item in the list of possible item specifics. Everything comes in fine, however, I need to form to refresh and repopulate the fields one the SKU loses focus.
Any Ideas?

Modules & VBA :: How To Have A Shortcut Option When Right Click On Each Item On List Box
Aug 1, 2013how I can have a shortcut option when right click on each item on the list box. So I got my answer with below code that opens another form "frmshortcut" with a listbox inside that shows list of options like "new task" , "edit item" . Now my problem is (like attached picture) the shortcut list (frmshortcut) will be open in another place when I right click the mouse, it is far from location of click. Also it shows some default in access when I right click in the listbox ("subform", "cut", "copy"), actually I do not like it shows these, just I like it shows shortcut list I have defined by the list box.
Private Sub ItemList_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single) Const RIGHTBUTTON = 2 If Button = RIGHTBUTTON Then DoCmd.OpenForm "frmshortcut"
' DoCmd.OpenForm "frmshortcut", acNormal, , , , acDialog
Forms!frmshortcut!txtparameter = Me.ItemList.Value
End If
End Sub

Oct 14, 2014I have a simple listbox (single column, no multi-selection).I want to enable a command button when the user selects an item in the listbox / disable it if no items are selected.I'm using the AfterUpdate event of the listbox, as follows :
Code:
Private Sub lstOptions_AfterUpdate()
Select Case Me.lstOptions.ItemsSelected.Count
Case 0
Me.comConfirm.Enabled = False
Case Else
Me.comConfirm.Enabled = True
End Select
End Sub
But when I select an item from the listbox, and debug the code, the Count is always zero? Even though I can see the item selected??
