Forms :: Can't Get Unique Values To Show In Combo Box
Jul 22, 2014
I've used this guide [URL] .... to only show unique values in a combo box. I can't get it to work, it just shows a load of blank values. If I run the expression builder part from the background, it works but it doesn't work in the combo box. Not sure what I can post to give more details?

I have built a database that is fed from tables provided from outside computer systems, so the architecture isn't exactly how I would design it.
I am trying to use a combo box on a form to quickly jump to a specific department. I have about 130 personnel that are assigned to 10 different departments. I have to use a subform to update the position info vs. the personal info.
The combo box works, but I can't get it to display each department once. It shows the department 130 times for each employee instead of 10 unique departments.

I have an unbound combo box with three columns, which get the values from a query. The first column is hidden. When I close the combo box after my selection, only the second column value is shown on the box. Is there any way that both the second and third column being shown on the box after selection?

One Manifest can have many line items. One line item can only have 1 designation. Each manifest may have many line item with same designations.
For example:
Manifest #0001
Line Item 1: N
Line Item 2: H
Line Item 3: U
Line Item 4: N
Line Item 5: P
Line Item 6: H
Table set-up
CurrentCY
CurrentCYIDPK
WasteCategoryIDFK
LineItemInformation [Line Item 1, Line Item 2, etc]
ManifestDataIDFK
ManifestData
ManifestDataIDPK
ManifestNumber [0001]
WasteCategory
WasteCategoryIDPK
WasteCategory [H, N, U, etc]
I'd like to query the line items for each manifest so the end result has the manifest number (Manifest #0001) in a field and the designations (N, H, P, U) in fields on a report.

I am trying to get a combo box to only show unique values, but I can't get it to work properly - it still shows duplicates in the list.
The Row Source is set to
SELECT DISTINCT Areas.ID, Areas.Area FROM Areas ORDER BY Areas.Area;
And the combo is bound to column 2

I am building a tracking database where we would be able to track information which field are null data and report them to our Administration to fill the null data. For this I have created a form name "Search" and I have a combo box control on that form which is bound to "Table = employee" and its ROW SOURCE TYPE="Field List", I would like to able to query records where the selected value in this combo box is null through out the table.
For example if I select "Telephone" from this combo box dropdown, I would like the query to show all the records where the "Telephone" is null, how to set the criteria in query to take the combo box value as "Field Name" and then compare it with the Field/Column in the table and show the null values.

I have the following dataset in a table called NR_PVO_120. How do i pick out a number (which can change but let's say, 6) of UNIQUE OtherIDs without excluding any OtherIDs under any fax numbers?
So, if you pick OtherID from Row7 you then also must pick OtherIDs from rows 8 and 9 because they have the same fax number. Basically, once you pick an OtherID you're then obligated to pick all OtherIDs that have the same fax number as the one you picked.
If the number requested (6 for this example) isn't possible then "the closest number possible but not exceeding" would be the rule.
For example, if you take OtherIDs from rows 1-10 you will get 6 unique OtherIDs but row 10 shares a fax with rows 11 and 12. You either need to take all 3 (but that will raise the unique count to 8, which isn't acceptable) or skip this OtherID and find one with a fax that has no other OtherIDs and that isn't on the result set already. My result of 6 UNIQUE OtherIDs will need to contain ALL OtherIDs under any fax the existing OtherIDs are connected to.
So one solution is to take rows 1-6, 26. Another is to take rows 1-4,10-14.
There will be many possibilities (the real dataset has tens of thousands of rows and the number of people requested will be around 10K), as long all OtherIDs connected to all faxes on the result set are part of the requested number (6 in this case) any combination would do.
A few notes.
1.Getting as close as possible to the requested number is a requirement.
2.Some OtherIDs will have a blank fax, they should only be included as a last resort (not enough OtherIDs for the requested number).
my table (NR_PVO_120)
Row OtherID Fax
1 11098554 2063504752
2 56200936 2080906666
3 11098554 7182160901
4 25138850 7182160901
5 56148974 7182232046
6 56530104 7182234134
[code]....
A few sample outputs
one solution is taking rows 1-6 and 26.
OtherID
11098554
56200936
25138850
56148974
56530104
56148975
Another solution is taking rows 1-4 and 10-14.
OtherID
11098554
56200936
25138850
56024315
56115247
56148974
This is for a fax campaign, we need to make sure no fax number is faxed twice, that all people connected to that fax number are contacted under one fax sent.

So I have a multi-select listbox with tick boxes and values in on my form. Is it possible to make so only the checked values are showing up and then not display the tick box?
I know I can use a combo box to display several values, but using a listbox like this would be easier on the eye.
Is it possible to use code to get a text box to show the selected items in the list box?

I have a main form that filters data in a subform based on selections via combo box users make on the main form.
So I have the 'department' and 'manager's name'. If someone selects 'Human Resources' from 'department' combo box, then I only want to see the managers that are in the Human Resources departement when I drop down the combo box for 'manager's name'. Currently I'm seeing all the managers and a user can select a manager that is not in human resources and get no data returned. I prefer for him to get a list of those that are in that department only. The source of the combo box is a query.
I got it! Found here: [URL] ....

Hi,
I have two tables:
tblOutTransmittals and tblTransmittedDocs. A document is sent with a transmittal document which the recipient signs to confirm that they received it. I've created a query that will show all the drawings/documents and the information about the associated transmittals.
What I want to do is show display records with a unique CCNum and preferably the one with the most recent TransmittalDate.
I've attached a screenshot and here is the sql:
SELECT tblOutTransmittals.CCNum, tblTransmittedDocs.DrawingNum, tblTransmittedDocs.RevisionNum,tblOutTransmittals. *
FROM tblOutTransmittals INNER JOIN tblTransmittedDocs ON tblOutTransmittals.DocID = tblTransmittedDocs.outTransmittalID
WHERE tblTransmittedDocs.DrawingNum="32-35554"
I've tried it using the DISTINCT keyword but that would only work if I'm returning one field. I tried Group By as well but couldn't get that to work.
Thank you,
RCurtin

I have been plodding along slowly building up a small DB and have hit a slight snag (or 2).
I have a Supplier Form (frmSuppliers). I have a frmSupplierContacts.
I want to prevent users entering data in the standalone frmSupplierContacts?
Also on frmPurchaseOrders I have a combo ContactID. I want the combo to display Supplier Contact Names for the selected supplier only.
I have put as row source:
SELECT tblSupplierContacts.ContactID, [LastName] & ", " & [FirstName] AS Contact FROM tblSupplierContacts WHERE (((tblSupplierContacts.SupplierID)=Forms!frmPurcha seOrders!SupplierID)) ORDER BY [LastName] & ", " & [FirstName];
This displays a Contact Name, but does not change if you select a different supplier?
Hopefully attached DB will explain all.
Thanks for any help in advance.
Phil.

I'm sure there is an easy way to do this but I have not clue.
I have three tables:
Students
STUDID (pk)
txtFname
txtLname
etc.
Classes
CLASSID (pk)
txtClassName
txtClassRoom
etc.
Student_Class (join table)
STUD_CLASSID (pk)
fk_StudID
fk_ClassID
On my Class form when assigning students there is a combo box which shows the students names. Once a student is picked in the combo box their name shows up in the subform.
What I would like is a way to NOT show a student in the combo box after they have been selected. Is this possible? Or should I be looking at another way of doing this?

I have a form that has four combo boxes on it that enable the user to select entrants in a golf tournament for tee off times and tee. (I have attached part of this database to this post) It all works fine but after selecting the first player in the first combo box and then selecting the second combo player I would like the player selected previously not to show up. Is this possible or do I have to rethink the way players are selected.

How to change a combo box to a text box control in a subform for a field that is based on a two-column value list. I want to be able show the value in the unbound column (which is a text value instead of a number).
My subform has a field called "ProjectStatus". This field is a value list in my projects table with the following row source:
1;"Built";2;"Unbuilt";3;"Active";4;"On Hold";5;"Completed (Master Plan)";0
So, it is set as a two-column value list with a number data type for the bound column. In my forms, column 1 is made invisible (set to 0") so that only the text value is shown to the user. This works fine with combo boxes.
However, I want to change the unsightly combo box to a text box and show the text value of the unbound column (this form will only be used to show data not for entry). When I change it to a text box control, the value that appears is a number, of course.
If ProjectStatus were based on a table, rather than a lookup value list, I would query it but I am not sure how it should be done with a value list. I could just store the text value instead, I guess, and redo a bunch of stuff or I could create a "Status" table and redo a bunch of stuff (this seems like my lot in life lately) but I feel like there should be some way to do this.

I'm trying to set a query with 6 fields.
My question is: Is it possible that the query shows me a combo box to select what is connected to this data.
Example fields:
HospCode; HospName; Dept; ModName; SerialN; DatInst
I'm looking to select name of a hospital from "HospName" from a list box. If no, then at least to write the name and the rest I'll get it associated with the name.
Then I need to know if I can put this in a form so the form asks same criteria?

I have a query that has an Item, ItemPrice, Allocation, and DatePurchased ordered by DatePurchased with only unique values.
I'm using it for a PO Database, when entering items purchased, I have the Item field populated with a items previously purchased, when the item is selected the Unit Price and Allocation Fields are autofilled in with the most recent values from the PO details table.
My problem is if I purchase 10 of the same Items on 10 different dates then the combo box will show 10 of the same Items, because they are not unique values because of the DatePurchased.
What I want is a query to show one unique Item entry with the most recent Purchase Price. I can get a list of unique Items, by only making a query of those and showing only unique values, but as soon as the date is introduced it no longer works, for obvious reasons.
Any help appreciated,
JOe K.

I have a database to track client activity per session.
Each client has a unique client number but multiple activities.
Therefore, if I have 20 clients in the database and each has 3 activities, I have 60 client numbers, 3 *20 = 60. ( Duplicated)
My elementary problem is how do I display the client activity unduplicated so that my query returns only 1 unique client number per session.
I tried the unique records/values in the property box but still.....
Thanks for your help.

I have a set of cascading combo boxes. When a value is selected in Cat 1 ID, it narrows down the selections in Cat 2 ID which narrows down the selections in Cat 3 ID.
However, the values don't show up for columns Cat 2 ID or Cat 3 ID until I enter the row. Then I have it set to requery the fields because the underlying data isn't populated. But then when I leave the row, the values go away.
Why doesn't it show the underlying value from the table? Each column is bound to a field in a table - I would assume that the recorded value would show up. Did I miss something easy?
I've attached a picture of exactly what I mean.

I have created a form that searches a table to show certain criteria. I am having trouble with a part where the table uses a checkbox and I am trying to use a combo box on the search form to return the results based on is it checked? Yes/No or both. When I test it I keep getting Runtime error 3075 missing operator.
The sql I am using is below and when I try and see where it is going wrong it highlights the line.
Code : Me.Filter = strWhere
Code:
Private Sub cmdFilter_Click()

Dim lngLen As Long
Const conJetDate = "#dd/mm/yyyy#"

Hi,
I have a situation and i do not know how to handle it.
I am developing an application for a lawyer. In the data base i have the following tables: Files, the people table (that are involved in a lawsuit), and other tables. The problem is the following: in the people table, beside the primary key i have another unique element that is social security number.
In the files table beside the primary key another unique element exists: the number and date of the file (File 1 from 15.02.2006). A lawsuit file can have more law terms: today it has one law term and maybe next week another law term so i must have the same file many times in the table with the same code and another date, but i cannot add the same file many times in the data base because a file has data about one person and the social security number of the person is unique.
If anyone can offer me a solution it would be good.
Thank you!
