Forms :: Applying Parameter Based Wildcard Search On Subform Filter
Jul 31, 2014
I have a Main form, and a subform which lists client details. On the Main form I have an unbound field. I want to be able to type a word into this unbound field and have it display all company names that have this word in them. ie. I type "Ltd" into the unbound field and it displays all companies with "Ltd" in the title.
I have created a query that does exactly this (Like ("*" & [Enter Word] & "*")), it displays a dialog box and I type in "Ltd" and it displays all relevant companies.
I have tried everything I know to make this work when I use the unbound field on the Main form, but I've had no luck.

Trying to filter a form based on a field with wildcard. My form has a txtCustFilter control where a customer's name can be entered in part or whole. The Customer's name is in PCCustomerName
This code works but, I'd like to make it case insensitive
Dim strFilter As String
strFilter = "[PCCUSTOMERNAME] LIKE ""*" & Me.txtCustFilter & "*"""
Me.Filter = strFilter
Me.FilterOn = True

I am having a problem with a filter that i am trying to apply to a subform.
I have a button on the form that when clicked should filter the subform (which is in datasheet view) to the criteria i set.
This criteria will eventually run from a combo box but I wanted to just get the filter working first.
I put the following code into the onclick event of the button:
Items.Form.Filter = "Items.Form.[Master Category] = 2"
Items.Form.FilterOn = True
I chose the criteria 2 for the filter just as a test as I knew there are some records with that value in the master category field.
The problem is when ever i click the button to apply the filter it clears all the data as if it has not found any records with that value.
Is my syntax and method OK? Why its filtering everything out?
The only other thing to consider is that the field I am filtering on was set up using a lookup wizard linked to a table so the values stored are a foreign key (hence the value being 2 rather than something descriptive).

I have a pretty simple form that includes subform. Subform's table is linked to main form's table with parent/child relation. Connecting fields are main table's ID field and corresponding field in child table. Subform is in datasheet view. This is pretty basic stuff so there should not be any problems, but every time I apply a quick filter in main form it causes data in subform become invisible. There is single row in subform, but all it's fields are empty.

I am trying to apply a filter on a subform but i get "Type mismatch" and i dont know why below is the code.
Basically when they select a line on one subform it filters another from that selection is it somthing to do with the dates?
Code:
Dim MyProd As String
Dim ReqDate As Date
MyProd = Me.ProductCode
ReqDate = Me.RequestDate
Forms!FrmReplenishments.FrmMasterReplenDetail.Form.Filter = "[ProductCode]= '" & MyProd & "'" And "[DeliveryDate]= #" & ReqDate & "#"
Forms!FrmReplenishments.FrmMasterReplenDetail.Form.FilterOn = True

I have attached a (slimmed down) Access 2007 database used for Asset Management and fault reporting. It opens on the main form which has a number of subforms and one sub-subform.
To make the form as user friendly as possible I am placing a number of unbound text boxes on the FormHeader to be used for search queries. The AfterUpdate event for each text box executes the necessary query, searching on the contents of the text box.
This works absolutely fine for the 'Colloquial Name' text box and associated field - this field is in the main table, RTI_Assets. The main form frmRTI_Assets is bound to this table. The query executed is called 'Colloquial Search'.
I cannot however get the 'Fault Reference' search to work on the field Supplier_Reference in the RTI_Fault table (the subform subfrmRTI_Fault is bound to this table). The query executed is called 'Fault Reference Search'.
There are 15 records in the assets table and 2 records in the faults table - with supplier references 555 and 101010.
I get prompted with Enter Parameter Value for the field RTI_Fault.Supplier_Reference if I enter 555 in the text box. Whatever I enter in this prompt I get returned to the first record.

I have a form which uses a parameter based query to present an individual senior doctor with a list of names for of individual juniors to provide an assessment report on. When the first form opens the user enters their RespondentID.
Once senior has decided which names to comment on I have another form which has the questions to be answered which is opened by clicking a button on the first form.
How can I pass a parameter from the first form to the second so that only the records relevant to that senior doctor are displayed? The underlying table has 60 senior doctors and 20 junior doctors. The senior doctor is identified by the field RespondentID in the first form. I've tried putting a WhereClause in the FormOpen command but I still get a dialogue box asking for the parameter RespondentID when the second form is opened.

I wanted to build a dynamic search form using text box instead of the common combo box type.
I found an example that used the combo box and the searching portion of the code is as followed:
Code:
If Nz(Me.txtID, "") > "" Then
If Len(Nz(strFilter)) > 0 Then strFilter = strFilter & " And "
strFilter = strFilter & "CategoryID = '" & Me.txtID & "'"
bFilter = True
End If
How to insert (Like "*" & Me.txtID & "*") into the code to make the dynamic search using text box possible.

I have a login screen to open a form. I would like to filter the form based on what user logs in. In my tbluser, I have a trainer name, a UserLogin, and a password. I would like the form to filter on trainer name based on userlogin.
I know the code: DoCmd.ApplyFilter , "Trainer = 'Joe Smith'" but how to I edit the code to change as the tbluser changes?

I have a multi select list box which I am trying to use to open another form and apply a filter based on the user's multiple selections.
List box - lstCatergories
Main Form - frmSuppliersSummaryCategories
Subform on Main Form - frmSuppliersSummaryCategoriesSubForm
The Subform contains the text box CategoryID
Here's my code which nearly works...
Code:
Private Sub cmdFilterSuppliers_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdFilterSuppliers_Click
Dim strWhere As String
Dim ctl As Control
Dim varItem As Variant
[Code] .....
My problem is that the control "CategoryID" is on the subform and I'm having massive problems trying to reference it. This is the part of my code that won't work:
Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmSuppliersSummaryCategories", acNormal, , "CategoryID IN(" & strWhere & ")"
However; if I open the SubForm directly it works perfectly. I.e.
Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmSuppliersSummaryCategoriesSubform", acFormDS, , "CategoryID IN(" & strWhere & ")"
To summarise... How do I reference the control "CategoryID" on the subform "frmSuppliersSummaryCategoriesSubform"?

Dim strMsg As String, strTitle As String

When I'm applying a sort and filter in a form, Access is updating the Filter and Order By properties of the form, so that it is possible to re-use in conjunction with Filter on Load and Order By on Load properties. However, a consequence of this is that when the form is closed, it prompts the user whether they want to save the design of the form. I want to circumvent this as I don't want to re-use the sort and filter and I don't want to be prompted to save the design of the form.
Although I can circumvent this by closing the form using a method that doesn't prompt for saving, the additional complication here is that the form in question is in the Navigation subform of a Navigation Control. Hence when I click on a another Navigation button, it (not me) closes my current form and hence prompts me whether I want to save the design of the form (if I have been sorting and/or filtering). I can't see how to circumvent this and the prompting is resulting in unacceptable usability.

I'm trying to make a filtered search form using "*" as a wildcard default value in combo boxes, this works for all the text fields except for the account number field (Numeric primary key). After quite a bit of reading up and searching, I tried using the following as the row source;
SELECT customers.ACCOUNT_NO, customers.CUSTOMER FROM customers; UNION SELECT "*", "All" From Customers;
But am still getting "#Error" in the combo box.

I want to apply a parameter query to a subdatasheet.
I have a primary query that has a list of all the machines we service, this same query will count the number of service calls within a given date range that the user inputs.
(For the date criteria- Between [Enter Period Start Date] and [Enter Period End Date])
The resulting query datasheet is linked to a subdatasheet from another query that searches all the service calls and links it to the Machine ID.
So when I expand the subdatasheet it shows all the service calls for that machine, beyond the date range.
How can I make it so that the date range from the primary query applies to the subquery?
(without having to re-enter the date range everytime I expand the subdatasheet)

I am fairly new to VBA and am trying to apply a filter within a form so that agent records can be filtered based on an agent's name (so that they can only see information that refers to them).
I also want a record to be removed when it has been completed (when this habbens a date completed field will populated) however I do want to see those completed records that refer to the agent that have been completed today.
Here is my code. The 2 filters work on their own howver when I put them together I get a mismatch error.
If Me.txtRole = "Agent" Then
DateCompletedFilter = "(DATECOMPLETED Is Null) Or (DATECOMPLETED = Date())"
AgentFilter = "CASEOWNER ='" & Me.txtName & "'"
DoCmd.ApplyFilter , AgentFilter And DateCompletedFilter
Exit Sub
End If

I am using two combo boxes to filter a list box with the code below. The combo boxes work, but when the form opens, the list box is empty until it is filtered using the combo boxes.
I want the list box to return all records when no filter is applied.
Here is the code:
SELECT Q_Gender_Statistics.ParticipantID, Q_Gender_Statistics.Gender, Q_Gender_Statistics.Date,
Q_Gender_Statistics.Year, Q_Gender_Statistics.[First Name], Q_Gender_Statistics.[Last Name],
Q_Gender_Statistics.[Other Names], Q_Gender_Statistics.[Passport No], Q_Gender_Statistics.[Duty Station], Q_Gender_Statistics.[Contact Number] FROM Q_Gender_Statistics WHERE (((Q_Gender_Statistics.Year) = Forms!F_Gender_Statistics!cboYear) AND ((Q_Gender_Statistics.Gender) = Forms!F_Gender_Statistics!cboGender)) ORDER BY Q_Gender_Statistics.Date DESC;

Hello everyone!
I think I am asking the impossible, but can't think why it can't be done!
Here's the dilema:
I am working with an unbound form to search a Mobile Register.
On the form I have an unbound combo box which looks up User details from a table (LKP_User).
When I select a user, I want the subform below to filter all the details for that user and show me which mobiles they have.
PROBLEM:
Combo Box has 3 fields, User_ID, User, Dept_ID. User_ID is bound column but not displayed in combo (only User) is displayed.
I need to link the User_ID with the User_ID on the subform, but don't know how to tell it to look at column 1 of the combo box.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Do I need some fancy code to get this to work?
Cheers in anticipation

I am running into a problem with just one form in my database. I was getting the error 'Can't build a link between unbound forms'. After searching here and elsewhere the solution is/might be to type the linked fields into the child and master proprty fields. However when I do that I still can't get this form to work. Would anybody please take a look at the file attached - I trimmed it down to two tables with a few records and a form/subform.
I want to make a selection in the combo box and have the filtered results displayed on the form below - simple and I have done the same thing in the database elsewhere but I just can't see why it won't work here.
Thanks
Steve

I'm using an Excel spreadsheet that is importing external data from an access database in which I've got a field where the name of a person checking materials out is entered. it is currently set up, and I cannot change it, as a free form field. So folks enter information in a variety of ways.
For example, Larry Martin might be entered as "Larry Martin" or "Martin, Larry" or "larry.martin@somewhere.com". I'm trying to run a query that would look in that field for any entry with the string I enter, such as "Martin."
I've tried setting the criteria like this:
Like "*" & [Which Last Name] & "*"
However, when I try and run the query I get a message telling me the system is expecting two parameters.
Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong? I've been banging my head against this for awhile now and am thoroughly stumped! All assistance, as usual, is greatly appreciated!

I have a form which contains a listbox sourced from a query and several text boxes where the user can enter filters for the query. The query has references back to the form for the criteria, i.e. the filter for "Company Name" is handled in the query criteria as
Code:
Like "*" & [Forms]![HooversProspects]![SearchText] & "*"
When i exit this form in my un-compiled version it does not pop up an "Enter Parameter" box, however, when i exit this form from the compiled version it pop ups the "Enter Parameter" box for every filter I have.
How i can fix this? Perhaps change the rowsource on the query to null upon exit?

I need to open my form with a filter attached that is based on criteria already existing in the subform. I've tried putting the following code in the OnOpen event of my main form :
Code:Dim stDocName As StringDim stLinkCriteria As StringstDocName = "Campaign Form"stLinkCriteria = "[Campaign - Last Contact Status subform].Form![Communication Response] in ("2","4","10","11")"DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, acNormal, , stLinkCriteria, acFormPropertySettings, acWindowNormal
Basically I want to open my main form (Campaign Form) and only show records where the "Communication Response" is 2,4,10 or 11(a variable on my subform "Campaign - Last Contact Status subform"). Which in itself is a problem because I can't seem to code all of these variables- it will only accept one.
When I run the above code I am getting asked to enter a parameter value for "Campaign - Last Contact Status". I'm not too sure where this is picking this up from or how to fix it. I've even tried to run this based on the underlying query of "Campaign - Last Contact Status subform" with the same results.
Can someone help me? All I want to do is open the form based on the criteria I specify which is contained in a field in the subform. It doesn't sound that hard but it seems to be getting the better of me!

Hi,
I've posted this same question a few months ago, started something else and forgotten about the problem, now I really need to solve this! (I had no luck with the original post - code still not working).
I want to apply a filter to my main form based on criteria showing on a subform. This is the code I've got (applied to the OnOpen event of the main form):
Code:Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel as Integer)Dim stDocName As StringDim stLinkCriteria As String stDocName = "Campaign Form"stLinkCriteria = "[Forms]![Campaign - Last Contact Status subform]![Communication Response]=1" DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, acNormal, , stLinkCriteria, acFormPropertySettings, acWindowNormalEnd Sub
The main form is called Campaign Form
The subform is called Campaign - Last Contact Status subform
The field I want to filter on is Communication Response
The criteria I want to filter is : I only want to show records from the Campaign Form (main form) where the status of the Communication Response on the Campaign - Last Contact Status subform (subform) is equal to 1.
I've tried a few variations of the above code but the results are always the same - prompting to enter a paramater value. Now I'm just fishing and hoping I'll get it right.
FYI. the subform only contains one record for each record on the main form. It works a bit like this :
Customer||Date||Communication Response(1=open, 2=closed)
One||20/4||1
Two||21/4||2
Three||21/4||1
One||23/4||2
The corresponding record on the subform for customer One will show the communication response of 2 as this is the most recent date. Therefore you now have the following :
Customer||Communication Response
One||2
Two||2
Three||1
Now I want to only show those records that have a Communication Response of 1. Remember this field appears on a subform. This is the part I am having trouble coding.
I know I've probably just explained the most irrelavent details but if anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated!!
