Forms :: Labels And Text Fields
May 28, 2015I have a problem with the connection between the labels and fields in designing my form.Is there a command do eliminate the association between the two? If not I was thinking if there is a problem to delete the labels and make new ones but by doing this Access (2010) says the label is unassociated.

Forms :: Check Box List - Show Data Vertically?
Jul 11, 2013I have a check box list on my form for all 50 states, so the user can choose any number and any combination of possible states, which I need the user to be able to do, but when it displays the data it does so horzontally and delineated by a comma. The problem with this is that if enough states are selected, it eventually gets cut off at the end and doesn't display the last states. Is there any way to make it instead show vertically, since at least with that I can format around it and not have a horizontal bar going all the way across the form?

Jun 8, 2006I am learning access on my own using MS Press step by step manual and it tells me to hold down the shift key while selecting the text boxes that are next to the labels, but when I do the labels get selected also . how do I disconnect the labels from the text boxes in order to insert space between the labels and the text boxes as it intructs me to in the book. I am able to select the labels separately, but it will not allow the text to be selected separately.
View 1 Replies View RelatedEmbedded Table Showing ID's Rather Than Text Labels
Jun 2, 2006I apologise in advance for my newbish question - I'm very green at Access. I'm trying to build a contact database for our company that lists Jobs done by customer.
I'll confess I "borrowed" the sample database provided with Access to help me out - which has worked well up until this issue.
The problem I am having is when I am working on our "Client Service History" form. (Basically the Workorders by Customer from the template - I can take a screen grab or something if it helps).
This form includes a sub-table which lists the WorkOrder ID by customer, the Date Entered, the Job Type, the Engineer and whether it was chargeable. The latter three options are choices controlled by combo boxes from the Workorders Form/Table. Where the status for "Chargeable" always comes up correctly, the Job Type and Engineer always show a number - which I presume is the ID of the label of each type - I.e. "5" refers to "Warranty Repair".
There are separate Data Tables for Engineers (EmployeeID) and Job Types (JobTypes). How do I get it to display each item correctly; as a summary of jobs done for each customer?
Any help would be particularly appreciated!!! :D
Getting Results From 7 Query's And Populate Text Labels
May 18, 2005Ok, i have tried and searched but could not find a good start to a solution for my problem.
I have a calendar form, which shows the dates and under it text labels.
Now whenever something is present in my table (tblKalender) on those dates, i want it to show in the text labels under the correct date.
Now, i have the results through a query, but i dont want to link the query to the form. Only thing that i have trouble with now is getting the information i need to show to those labels. I have written some code (early stages) which i want to show me the results for testing, later on i can fill the fields. I keep getting an error saying not enough parameters, expected is 1.
Can anybody take a look at the code or help me with this?
My query for day one is called qerKal1 and the fields i need to get back are the hour and the task. The query gets it's criteria from the label above that day (lbDag1), which shows the date.
I have this code in a module and when the form is opened it runs the fucntion.
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Const strSQLWhere1 As String = "" & _
"SELECT qerKal1.Uur, qerkal1.Taak, qerKal1.Datum " & _
"FROM qerKal1 " & _
"WHERE (((qerKal1.Datum) = [Forms]![frmKalender]![lbDag1].[Caption]));"
Public Function fFillDay1()
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSQL As String
Dim strText As String
Dim strText2 As String
strSQL = strSQLWhere1
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL, dbOpenForwardOnly)
Do Until rs.EOF
If strText = "" Then
strText = rs!Uur
strText2 = rs!Taak
Else
strText = strText & ", " & rs!Uur
strText2 = strText & "," & rs!Taak
End If
rs.MoveNext
Loop
rs.Close
MsgBox strText & strText2
Set rs = Nothing
Set db = Nothing
End Function

Weird - Font On Text Labels Gets Bolder As I Move Through Records
Oct 19, 2005Hi all,
title says it all!
I've got a form with numerous controls and labels. When i first open the form, all looks fine - all labels are Black Arial 8 Bold. But when i start scrolling through the records, the text on three of my text labels gets bolder. I haven't a clue what is causing this - the labels are just standard - two are associated with controls and one is all on its own.
I have no code written to do this, and in fact i'm not sure you could write code to do this. I've tried renaming the labels, changing the font, deleting and recreating them, but it's always the same three that get darker.
Ideas?

Reports :: Text Within Report Labels Different Size In Preview / Print?
Jan 12, 2015I have always noticed that when creating a report, when you make a paragraph using a label, the alignment and size of the text/paragraph is always different when you preview the report than when you design it.
This makes alignment of paragraphs tricky, especially when you are trying to insert a bold faced word into the middle of a block of text by using a separate label.
I am using Access 2000
Changing Font Size Of Labels Depending On Text Length
Jul 28, 2014I have a report that prints labels (similar to avery labels) which pulls data from a query. These labels are all unique and vary in length. Due to the length variance, I want the font size to get smaller for labels with more characters. I want the text to go down to another line when necessary.
In my report under the OnPage Event Procedure I wrote this:
Private Sub Report_Page()
If Len(Text2) > 20 Then Text2.FontSize = 8
If Len(Text2) > 10 And Len(Text2) < 21 Then Text2.FontSize = 10
If Len(Text2) < 11 Then Text2.FontSize = 14
End Sub
This works to some degree but the problem is that once there is a longer label, all of the proceeding labels are resized & the longer label that should have been resized was not.
Is there another place I should be writing this code? I looked under events for the textbox but there doesn't seem to be anything that would work since none of them would trigger when printing labels
Queries :: How To Use Count Statement That Counts Vertically
Aug 26, 2014I know how to use the count statement that counts vertically, how can I count horizontally (only if the value is greater than 0) ?
CustID 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th Count
2233 7 3 0 0 2 8 0 4
5730 3 0 0 0 1 0 6 3
7590 0 0 0 4 0 0 1 2
I need to capture the value in the 'Count' column (as shown above).
Display Results For Each Group Horizontally Rather Than Vertically
May 24, 2012Is there an easy way [in a query or a series of queries?] to display this:
Code:
Branch Officer Total Loans
1 ABC $5,678,555
1 DEF $6,678,555
2 GHI $7,678,555
2 JKL $8,678,555
2 MNO $9,678,555
Like this:
Code:
Branch Officer1 TotalLoans1 Officer2 TotalLoans2 Officer3 TotalLoans3 . . .
1 ABC $5,678,555 DEF $6,678,555
2 GHI $7,678,555 JKL $8,678,555 MNO $9,678,555
There is an indeterminate and ever-changing possible-number-of-Officers per Branch.
If this is not possible using queries, is there a better way than writing code to loop through the recordset to get the desired output?I've done it before where I've written output to text and also to a table using VBA & recordset - but I'd like to know if there is a way I can get Access to do the 'heavy lifting'.
How To Programmatically Align The Control's Position (Left,Top)
Aug 18, 2007I want to progammatically align the report controls position.
I have a control with left=2.7 in the Design view property.
I want to set programmatically set this value to 3.0 or other value accoring to a parameters. The problem is that when I set this property at the event Report-Open, the control appears always in another position regardless of the left value, i.e appears always at the new constant position.
What is the problem you think?

View 10 Replies View RelatedReports With Sub Forms Hiding Labels.
Dec 17, 2004Hi,
I have a command button that opens a report. The report has many subforms in it. I am sending open args which existingstewardship. I want one of the labels of the labels to be visible if the me.openargs = "existingstewardship". the code is not working. I have tried to debug when I do this I have found the open args are null and I am wondering if the open args are null is this because they were sent to the main report from the command button and the subforms in the main report do not get passed the open args.
Does anyone have any idea ? how I could make the box visible or not visible in subreport from the command button. The other option I have would be two different reports. Thanks PWF
Forms :: Linking Labels To Controls
May 17, 2014I cannot link a label with a control. I don't know how it happens, or rather how I do it, but on various forms the label is not linked to the proper control. I try to do it by clicking on the warning popup on the right side and indicate I want to associate the label with the control, but sometimes it just doesn't work. That is, if I set the visibility of the control to True or False depending on the value of another control, the label still appears.
I've looked in the properties of each, but there doesn't seem to be anything there to indicate the link or association. Other than laboriously copying and pasting the label back on the form with the control highlighted, is there any way else to do this?

View 5 Replies View RelatedForms :: Referencing Labels In A FOR Loop
Apr 1, 2014I want to be able to do something to several labels, e.g. make them invisible, using a FOR loop. They are all named similarly, with ascending numbers on the end, e.g. lblName20
Say I want to make lblName20 to lblName40 invisible. I need something along the lines of:
Code:
Dim labelname As String
For c = 20 To 40
labelname = "lblName" & c
labelname.Visible = False
Next c
Of course, that doesn't work, because it doesn't recognize the string as a label name. How do I go about this?

Forms :: Vary Sub Form Labels Depending On Other Value
Jan 21, 2015I have a form containing a sub form.
On the sub form I am selecting products that I am selling to a customer whose details appear on the main form.
The products on the sub form are selected from a combo box. This section is in datasheet format.
Depending on the product sold some of the labels on the sub form are not relevant. And when this is the case I was thinking maybe the label is rendered invisible.
Maybe this is not the best way to handle this - or is it. It certainly is expedient.
Perhaps as well when the label is rendered invisible entry of a value into the corresponding text box becomes impossible.
Is there a better way to handle this?
How I can render the label invisible and disallow data entry depending on the value of the combo box.
