Forms :: Calculated Control Value Appears But Disappears

Nov 7, 2013

I have a calculated control on a form that is summing other controls and then a subtotal on a subform. This is access 2007

The calculated control does not display the value until I enter a value other then the default in all of the source controls. If I hit the "refresh" button, the value appears in the calculated control for a moment, then disappears.

I have set the default of the source controls to be 0, so none are null.

the calc control value does not stay until I put a value in the subform and its subtotal thus has a value

Calculated Field Disappears...

Jan 27, 2005

I have a calculated field in a form that calculates the amount due. When I open the form or the record and the record has an amount due of 0, then the field says "$0.00" for a second and then disappears. Any idea why this is so? This becomes a problem because $0.00 doesn't appear on any reports either. Any help would be appreciated!

Forms :: Storing Calculated Control Of A Subform

Jul 5, 2015

Eventhough i know calculated control are for queries, I still need to store a calculated value of a sum. I have a form with customers, dates, locations. That form has a subform that contains the services done and materials used. This subform is in datasheet view. In the footer i have a control with =Sum([Price]).

So I need the value of this control to be stored in the table the main form is based on. I did an unbound control in the main form where the =Me!Subform.Form!.Textx will bring the value "over" Then for the on focus event the vba code Me.Total=Me.Textx stores the value. That is fine. The same works with a command button with the same vba code.

However i am asking if there is a more automatic way to get the value over without the unbound control/command button.

Forms :: Form Calculated Control Using Calculations From A Query

Dec 18, 2014

All I'm after is, to sum in all records "where" reconcileDate (on the sub=form) = today in both the credit and debit fields and minus one from the other. I have a simple form and sub-form. On the sub-form I have a query based calculation that returns the following..."if ReconcileDate (on sub-form) = today, then show Debit value in yndebit" textbox..Likewise with the credit box, and all works perfectly fine.

However, I can't seem to sum these two boxes. Because the circled textboxes are query based, I've used the query as the control source (and not the text boxes) and all I get is an #ERROR? when placed in the form footer. I've tried to do this using the textboxes as the control source, and still nothing. I've tried to add a calculated control on the form itself, and still #ERROR? or #NAME? despite knowing exactly how to reference subforms within forms (this I've become quite an expert at as I simply use query design to make sure I have the correct path and control)anyway.

Forms :: Refer To A Calculated Value In Unbound Control In A Form

Jul 19, 2015

In my DB i would like to make a form that displays different calculated values based on other forms and queries like income running cost etc., but i do not know how to refer in an unbound control to value of a control in another form. I get always #names? error. However it worked when loaded that form i refered to. Is there a way to do it without loading the refered form?

Forms :: Form Disappears When Set To Pop Up

Aug 7, 2014

In Access 2010, I can't get a form to show up in Pop Up mode without it disappearing. Tried several solutions (most from this message board) with no luck, including:

Set Modal = no
Set Auto Resize = no
Set Auto Center = no
Set Border Style = dialog

There isn't any VBA set to run when the form opens, only on button clicks.I'm able to call out the form to open as acDialog in vba, but this blocks additional code I need to prepopulate the form.So far this happens on all forms I try to set as Pop Up.

Forms :: Subform Disappears If There Is No Data

Jun 24, 2013

I am using Access 2010.

Whenever I come to a record that does not have any data in my subforms, then (as you can expect) my subform controls disappear.

My subforms have "Allow Additions" set to YES.

The subform tables are linked through a LEFT JOIN.

I would like the controls to stay visible even when there are no records in the subforms.

I tried to set the subforms ID to the main forms ID thinking that this will at least generate an autonumber to make the subforms controls visible, but it did not work

=[Forms]![frmCandidateInfo]![CandidateID].[Value]

Forms :: Default Text In Textbox That Disappears On Click (like A Search Box)?

Sep 26, 2014

Is there an efficient way to have default text in a textbox on my form (like a search box), but have it so that when a user focuses on the textbox (to type in a search term), the word should disappear.

Just like the search box on windows 7 start menu.

Then, is there a way to have the default text not be the actual text in the box? Otherwise, my search box will search the default text.

Forms :: Data Properties Appears To Be Overridden

Oct 18, 2013

I have a form called frmElements which has its Data Entry and Allow Additions properties set to 'No' so that only existing records can be edited, this is all good and works fine when used from the Navigation Pane.

I have created a macro which opens this form from a button on the ribbon, this is where the problem lies because it opens the form and allows new records to be added, I know this because there is an empty record with an '*' at the bottom of the form. If I change to design mode the Data Entry and Allow Additions properties are still set to 'No', when I then change back to form view the form functions as it should.

It does not seem possible to set form properties using the macro builder and it appears to override the forms property settings.

I am using access 2010 on a Windows 8 machine.

Forms :: Write Conflict Message Box Appears?

Mar 24, 2015

I have a form for updating contact details of customers/suppliers. Upon clicking an edit button the user can update txt boxes (as opposed to updating the table data directly and making a mistake). When they press save the below code runs:

Code:
If Not IsNull(Me.txtp_fname.Value) Then
Dim strFirstName As String
strFirstName = Me.txtp_fname
Dim FirstName As String
FirstName = Replace(strFirstName, "'", "''")
End If

Forms :: Deleted Appears In Data Entry Fields

Aug 6, 2013

On a data entry form bound to a single table, there is a subform displaying all the records in the source table.If the user accidentally adds a record that they didn't mean to add (or if I add a record to test the form's functionality), and then right-click and delete the record, "#Deleted" appears in all the input controls.

Forms :: Field Level Size Appears To Change

Aug 12, 2015

I have a form that contains a blank text box for each field in a record. Until very recently it functioned correctly for years. Lately data enterers tried to fill a ten character field with five characters (ANNNN format, example X9999). Some records require an entry in this text box, some do not, so their field is left blank. Lately when a new entry is tried in this field, only the first three characters are accepted, blocking character four through ten from being entered. It acts as if the text length for this text box has been changed to three characters, but it is still the correct length in the Properties box.

The system keeps track of clients who have attended a nutrition education class and the form involved is the location the class was taught.

Dcount Vs SQL(VBA) For A Calculated Control

Oct 7, 2005

Here is the SQL that A2K gives me for the query that has the actions I want it to perform. But I can't get it to give me a count of the number of records returned. I would love to use DCOUNT but I am having a tough time working it out. Also in the final soultion, the numbers 2 and 23 are fields that I have 2 = weekday and 23 = [weekday] + [tt] which are in a different table. If someone could help me out with the DCOUNT formula, I would be forever appreciative.

SELECT DISTINCTROW noweekend.noweekday, noweekend.dayid
FROM noweekend
GROUP BY noweekend.noweekday, noweekend.dayid
HAVING (((noweekend.noweekday)=1) AND ((noweekend.dayid)>=2 And (noweekend.dayid)<23)) OR (((noweekend.noweekday)=7) AND ((noweekend.dayid)>=2 And (noweekend.dayid)<23));

Dlookup In Calculated Control

Apr 24, 2007

Hi,

I am trying to create a calculated field in a query which uses another value in the query to lookup a table. I get an error running the query :

"Microsoft Access can't find the name 'Indcat' you entered in the expression."

The expression I am using is as follows:

Expr1: DLookUp("[Class]","Class","([Indcat] = [Clind]) AND ([2007] Between [From] AND [To])")

Indcat and 2007 are valid field names in the query.

I used this Dlookup in a form and it worked fine (with Form! etc references to Indcat and 2007)

Mystified

Calculated Control On Form Won't Save

Oct 4, 2004

Hi,
I am a first time user to access groups, so I am hoping for a
good experience.

I have a form which has a calculated control. But the calculation
shows on the form but is not storing in the record.

On the property sheet, the name is charge and the control source is
the calculation (=[source1]+[source2]...)

Why is it displaying but not storing? I do not know Visual Basic, so I would
like a solution that is simple if there is such a thing.

Thanks in advance,
Trainjoan

Reports :: Calculated Control In Report Footer

Mar 23, 2014

I have a report and in the footer I have added a text box (Textbox136) to work out the average percentage of the field [Percentage], which works fine.

For the value in textbox136 I want to output a grade and want to use an IIF function in the control source, something like:

IIf([Textbox136]>=100,"A+",IIf([Textbox136]>=90,"A+",IIf([Textbox136]>=80,"A",IIf([Textbox136]>=70,"B",
IIf([Textbox136]>=60,"C",IIf([Textbox136]>=50,"D",IIf([Textbox136]>=40,"E",IIf([Textbox136]>=30,"E-","U"))))))))

But it won't work.

Forms :: Access Form Disappears In Form View

Apr 3, 2014

I have a form that I can view in Design view and layout view just fine.

BUT --

If I just try to open the form in from view, it disappears somewhere even though it says it's open.

If I view it in Layout view first, then Form view, it shows.

I've removed any code behind to try and figure out what's going on but it still happens.

Forms :: When Highlighting The Notes / It Appears That You Are Highlighting Correct Text

Jun 12, 2015

We have a bunch of notes that are stored in a database. The program looks for the notes that are relevant to each order, and it adds them one by one to a textbox.In some instances, when highlighting the notes (as certain parts of them are copied by the user) it appears that you are highlighting the correct text, but when the text is copied and pasted, different text was copied to the clipboard (usually a string that is offset a couple characters).

I can't post an image (I haven't posted enough), but highlighting everything in the text box selects what appears to be blank space. I wish I could show you. Maybe I'll get to the needed number of posts and be able to attach the screencap.

Forms :: Invalid Control Property - Control Source

Sep 24, 2013

I added a new field to one of my tables and query, but when I try to add a control for that field into my form it is not recognising it and the field isn't appearing in the sources for the form, even though the table is sourced to the form? Or am I going to have to do the usual and redo the entire form because I made a minor adjustment?

Forms :: Web Browser Control Inside A Tab Control Display

Jun 18, 2014

I have a form with a tab control, inside the tab control I placed an ActiveX control (Microsoft Web Browser). These are at the bottom of the form.

Everything displays fine if the entire form fit on the screen but if the form is too long and I scroll down the browser control is getting obscured by the tab control and getting chopped off (the contents are covered). It is as if the browser control is staying in space where it was and moving behind the tab control as I scroll.

This problem does not occur if I place the browser control directly on the form. Also I note that the browser control is sitting correctly within the tab control.

I have been through all the settings and properties of both controls and haven't been able to fix it. I searched all over the web but no one has previously stumbled across this one by the look of it.

See the attached image ...
