Forms :: Adding Onbeforeupdate Vb Code To Account For Missing Required Fields
Apr 4, 2014
I need code that I can incorporate with the code below, that will notify a user when required fields are left blank so that they have to go back and fill it in before updating the record. Below are the objects (shown in the order they appear on the form):
cmbModel
txtSerialNo
txtExpDate
txtPONo
cmbOfficeLoc
If any of the objects above are empty, the user should be prompted to go back and fill them in setting the focus back to the first empty object (again the fields above are in order). If conditions are not met, do not run the code below. If the conditions are met then proceed with the code below.
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim strMsg As String
Dim iResponse As Integer
' Specify the message to display.
strMsg = "Do you wish to save the changes?" & Chr(10)
strMsg = strMsg & "Click Yes to Save or No to Discard changes."
[Code] ......

I have made a form based on related tables. it requires me to fill out every field, which I don't want. I didn't make them required. Why does it do that?

Hi everyone,
Im building a database as part of a group project for uni. Its almost finished but recently on first opening the DB and clicking on a button on the form we get the following message boxes:
Firstly:
Your database contains a missing or broken reference to the file ‘OWC10.DLL’ version 1.1.
Click ok
and get...
Your database contains a missing or broken reference to the file ‘MSCHRT20.OCX’ version 2.0
When i click help it talks about deleting references but im not sure how to do this as im no expert by any means! :rolleyes:
I think this problem may have arisen because our accountancy department computers use access 2003 and the rest of the uni uses xp and we have been working on them both - oops! :(
Anyways i was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction to fix these problems?
Thanks in advance.
Mark

Dim wshShell, btn
Set wshShell = WSCript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
btn = wshShell.PopUp("Filter data wil be removed.", 2, "Data Unfilter:", &H4 + &H20)
Select Case btn

I have a form and subform.The form and subform both access tables that have "required" fields.If I try to tab to the sub form without filling in the required field then I get an error message generated by access (this is what I want). If I try and exit the form without the required field I get an error message as well.
Now it's a different story with the sub form. The sub form contains 1 to many rows. In each row there is a required field. I don't get any error message for not filling in that field. I Know I can 'capture' this in the code but I want access to do it.

I am working on an Access 2002 database where one of the tables has five required fields making up the key.
There is a form that is linked to this table which is used for adding new records.
There is a close button on this form that has the following code in it's OnClose event:
"DoCmd.close"
When the form is opened, no data entered and then the close button is clicked - nothing happens.
It used to work fine, until I recently upsized the database into a SQL Server database and now it's all gone horribly wrong.
If I close the form manually by clicking on the cross, I get this
error:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Cannot insert the value
NULL into column 'Product', table
'LeasebookSQL.leasebook_user.leases'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails. (#515) [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] The statement has been terminated. (#3621)
Can anyone please tell me how I can get the form to close without trying to save the record, especially when no changes have been made to the data on the form?
Thanks,
Simon

I tried to check if all required fields have been filled before saving the record using the following code.
Private Sub txtReportNo_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If IsNull(Me.cboMainCat) Then
Cancel = True
MsgBox ("Please enter Data for Main Cat")
Me.cboMainCat.SetFocus
End If
Repeat above code for all required controls here.
End Sub
It did not work with following error code.
Run-time error 2108
You must save the field before you execute the GoToControl action, the GoToControl method, or the SetFocus method.
The error message contradicts my original intention that prevents from saving without all required fields have been filled. Is there any way to get rid of this error message?
In addition, under the value of certain field, I need to check additional fields under that scenario. Is any additional code required to add in for that purpose?

I have a transaction form and there is at least two fields I need to make sure have been entered before the record is saved.
I have no problem with text or numeric fields but I can't seem to be able to check the contents of a drop down field.
What is the best method to use to make sure a drop down has been selected by the user and contains a value.
I have temporarily used a default value in the drop down but that's not really what I want.

am trying to change the tab order but have noticed that some of the fields are missing from the tab order form. I am attaching a screenshot to show which tabs are missing.

I am using code like this to give warning messages and pass on focus to boxes only when things are selected.
Private Sub TextBox2_Exit(Cancel As Integer)
If IsNull(Me.TextBox2) Then
MsgBox "TextBox2 cannot be left blank"
Cancel = True
Else
ComboBox1.SetFocus
End If
End Sub
I do this for a series of required fields in order.
However, I also want a command button that is 'Exit without Saving' that should be clickable at any time, but of course when focus is controlled in my required fields sequence, it can't be clicked. How can I separate this button?

I created this function to manage a MsgBox containing all required fields with no data:
Code:
Function FormValidation(TheForm As Form) As Boolean
Dim boolResponse As Boolean
Dim strError As Variant
Dim ctl As Control
boolResponse = True
strError = Null
[code]...
Then, I have a Form_BeforeUpdate event, where I wanna place the function, which contains also some VBA code to manage duplicates records:
Code:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset, dbs As DAO.Database, strICAO As String
Dim ctl As Control, txtMsg As String
[code]....
Now, how to add the function in this event to get these two results:
1. if required fields are blank and I press OK on the MsgBox, the routine must stop;
2. the focus must go in the first required blank control.
I tried some options but I get different kind of malfunctions: no custom message for duplicate records but only the access default one, "go to next record" feature with tab key not working and so on.

Hi,
I have the following situation.
I have a switchboard form which has 2 buttons (Add And Edit)
I have a patient record form, which has 2 fields, (DateRecCaptured and DateRecUpdated)
Both buttons on the switchboard open the Patient Record form (one opens it in Add mode and the other in Edit mode)
This is what should happen.
If I click on the add button on the switchboard, the patient record form should open to allow me to add a record. The system date should then automatically be saved in the DateRecCaptured field.
If i click on the Edit button and edit a record, the system date should be saved in the DateRecUpdated field. If no updates are made, the field shouldn't be updated. If you scroll among records, the DateRecUpdated field shouldn't be updated. When editing, the DateRecCaptured field should remain unchanged.
Thanx

I have created a form based on a query. The funny thing is when I tried to sort fields on the form, the following message box pops up:
Syntax Error (Missing Operator) In (Field Name)
I just did the exact same thing several weeks ago, and that first form could sort fields normally. The only difference between the first one and this is that this second query was based on several tables, while the first was based on a single table, although I doubt that is where the problem is.
I forgot to add that I could sort fields where the field name doesn't have spaces in it. For example, the field name "Customer ID" triggers the syntax error, while the field "S/N", "Company", etc. can be sorted like normal.

I have a totalquery that runs fine and give me the sum for both fields I'm looking for but I can't get the outputs to fill the fields on the form. I have tried the Dcount query in the control source but that just returns an error and locks up access.
Code:
SELECT [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, Sum([Tble-wcDelays].HoursDelay) AS SumOfHoursDelay
FROM [Tble-wcDelays]
GROUP BY [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, [Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID
HAVING ((([Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID)=[Forms]![Frm-ePlusCent]![cleanID]));
That is the query.

Hi,
I have a database with 8 tables. One of these being staff
I have staffID as a Primary key in the table staff
The format of this is "STA"0000
and input mask "STA"9999
I would like staffID to be automatically generated by taking the value of the previous staffID (eg STA0001) and creating a new staffID for the next member of staff that is to be added (eg, STA0002).
I have access experience but have never had to use SQL code and am struggling. If anyone could be kind enough to help me with this I would be very grateful.
Thank You
Nicholas

I have a accdb pointed at Sql Server 2012 via ODBC pushing text from a text box back to a Sql server's column that is a nvarchar(10) to store zip codes.
Edit: I confirmed that the accdb's linked table has a datatype of text for the zip code column.
Oddly, the Access form's textbox is sending back the text, but stripping out the preceeding zero in the zip code - almost like when excel (shudder) strips the preceeding zeros away from SSNs and Zipcodes - treating them like a number - and not text.
How do I stop this?
The form object is a text box, and the sql server backend doesn't mind the preceeding zero. When I manually set the value to = '01111' using sql server management studio, the value is accepted - and then later viewable (with the zero) when using the accdb's form...
This leads me to believe the form is stripping away the zero when inserting the record. The add records button uses the following to insert the records:
Code:
Private Sub btnAddDioOffice_Click()
Dim strSQL As String
If ListBoxDios.Value <> "" And txtDioOffName.Value <> "" Then
[Code].....

I created a form from the wizard. In the wizard, I added fields from two tables. Now, after the form is complete (and I've edited it in Design view so that it looks how I want it), I want to add another field from a third table.
Although I can add fields from the first two tables that were originally included (by clicking on the "Field List" icon and dragging fields from that list), I can't find a way to add fields from any other tables in my database. The "Field List" dialog box doesn't contain any fields from anything but the first two tables.
How to I get fields from other tables into the "Field List" dialog box?
Thanks,
Kelly

I have a table Items, ItemSizes and ItemTimes. That is for my item, I also have a table tableShowCost which is
the sales I have made at shows. I created a query from all of Items, the size of the item (from table ItemSizes) and
the ItemTimes (from tableItemTimes). Then, I created form from all of that.
So, now I have a form the displays all of the information about my item. Back to the Table ShowSales, it has multiple sales of different items, I want to know the total amount of sales I have made, so, I just did a easy query that gets me the total sales, but, I don't know how to get this information to display on my form, nor how to link an item on the query that gets me the total of each items sold, to the form.
(Should of thought of zipping it first)
Also, if some one does ask and gets the database, could they look and figure out why I cant go to the next record after opening it from the main form?

I've got a form that takes the members from my members table and allows me to take attendance. I have it set up with toggle buttons in the footer (so we can see what class we're currently looking at) and I want to apply two filters when we click on a button. The two filters are "SS_Roll = Yes (or True)" and "SS_Class = AD1 (or whatever the class is)". I did some research and found one code for it, but now that I'm getting the missing object error and upon further research, I'm starting to think the code I found was only an excerpt. Below is the code I currently have. It highlights the first line when I hit debug.
Code:
Private Sub OptAD1_Click()
Table![MembersTable].FilterOn = True
Table![MembersTable].Filter = "[SS_Roll] = " & True And "[SS_Class] = " & AD1
End Sub

I am working on a database where the records are numbered sequentially. On a regularly basis, records will be deleted leaving a gap in the record number sequence. I would like to have my db recognize that a number(s) is number in the sequence and use the missing number (filling in the gaps) when a new record(s) is added until all spaces are filling and then to continue from the largest number sequentially.

Created a button through button wizard that is supposed to open a form to add a new record, but all of the fields don't clear out. Only some fields clear and other fields actually populate data from another record.
Snip1 shows my form with a record selected. When I click the 'New Waste' button, you can see that the record ID goes to '(New)', but the fields actually populate data from another record.
This even happens if I set 'Data Entry' to yes for the form.
here's the code behind my button:
Code:
Private Sub btnNewWaste_Click()
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
End Sub
I even commented out my code for duplicating my record just in case but that didn't make a different.
Code:
Private Sub btnDuplicateRecord_Click()
Dim ctrl As Control
For Each ctrl In Me.Form.Controls
If ctrl.Tag = "DefaultMe" Then
ctrl.DefaultValue = """" & ctrl & """"
End If
[Code]....
edit: this problem persists in a backup database that only contains one test record. The button pre-populates data that doesn't exist in the back-up database.

I have a form that I am trying to add some yes/no fields to from my table. Whenever I add the controls to the form and attempt to open the form in form view, I receive the dreaded error: "Type mismatch in expression." I can't figure out what is causing this error, or where to look.
Attached is my relationships report. The yes/no fields I am attempting to add are located in tblRelationshipToBICs, tblIndustryClassification, and tblTypeOfBusiness. All of the fields (except pk) in those three tables are yes/no and I need to add them to my form.

I have a list of account numbers for members, they have distinct member numbers. I have it set up for users to search for the member, then the member number will auto-populate. I also need to account for members with no member number. I would like to have the user click on the check box "Non-Member" and somehow assign a Member number...starting with NM. So the first non-member would be NM00001, next NM00002. I thought I could create a table with the sequence of NM numbers. I am just unsure of how to tell my form to populate that field when the Nonmember box is checked.
Any ideas?
