Forms :: Can Use Enter Parameter Value Dialog

Feb 1, 2014

Can I open a "Enter Parameter Value" dialog box to capture and use the input without running a query?

something like

Code:
ParaBox ("Enter the Hostname", vbEntParameterVal, "Hostname Required")

or

Code:
Set pDialog = Application.ParaValueDialog(mso?????)

I need a short string input from the users at application load, and I'd like to use the "Enter Parameter Value" dialog.I'm about to build a workaround that will invoke a SQL statement to save the entry to a temp table, but it'd be nice if I could just call up that dialog box and store the entry as a VBA variable.

Forms :: Updating Record On Table - Enter Parameter Value Dialog Box Appearing?

May 16, 2015

I am having a problem updating a record on a table called BookInTable . The field I want to update is called Engineer and the record is found using the field Barcode. I have a form with 2 text boxes BarTxt and EngTxt as well as a button called SaveBtn. on the OnClick event of the SaveBtn I put the following code

Code:

Private Sub SaveBtn_Click()
If IsNull(Me![BarTxt]) Or (Me![BarTxt]) = "" Then
MsgBox "Please enter a value!", vbOKOnly, "Invalid Search Criterion!"
Me![BarTxt].SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If

DoCmd.RunSQL "Update BookInTable SET Engineer = " & Me!EngTxt & " WHERE BarCode ='" & Me![BarTxt] & "'"

End Sub

But this is bringing up the enter Parameter value dialog box for whatever I type into EngTxt. If I enter text into that box and then click okay it then updates to the record. how can I stop the from enter Parameter value dialog box appearing?

Forms :: Remove Enter Parameter Value

May 26, 2015

I can not remove the Enter Parameter Value. In the attached date base, go to frmEvents, and double click on one of the shows, and you will get that error. I have deleted lines of code, text boxes, and anything else that is associated with the txtSearchS.

Forms :: Enter Parameter Box For Every Filter

May 28, 2013

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?

Forms :: Enter Parameter Value For Subform Search

Apr 8, 2013

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.

Forms :: Enter Parameter Value On Unbound Field

Nov 27, 2013

I'm using Access 2013.

My scenario is: I have a Form to add Job Logs. This form has a cascading combo box with Clients filtering Projects. However, the Clients Combo Box is unbound, Projects is bound to the ClientProjects ID. I had to do this instead of have a key for both Clients and Projects in my Job Logs table due to the fact that Clients and Projects have a many-to-many relationship.

For Adding Job Logs this is fine.

My Problem: I have separate forms for viewing and editing Job Logs, and naturally, because Clients has no binding, every time I run these forms Access brings up the 'Enter Parameter Value' Message Box. I have tried a VB script to assign the Client ID based on the ClientProject ID value stored in the Projects combobox, on Form Load, however it still asks me to enter the Parameter Value and just writes the code in the combobox. Here's the Script:

Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.SelectClient = "SELECT Client ID, Client Name " & _
"FROM Client Projects Query " & _
"WHERE ClientProjectID = " & Me.SelectProject.Value
End Sub

Also, the Projects Combobox is also empty.

Disabling Parameter Dialog Box

Mar 17, 2006

Hello,
I have an innoccuous problem with a report I run in Access. The record source for the report is a query that is pulls data from 6 tables. I have a table titled ARInfo that I have to return amost all the fields in the table (big table) so I used * and show all the fields. When I run the report from the button click event on my form, before the query runs that servers as the report's record source, a parameter dialog box pops up titled ARInfo (table name). You do not have to enter anything in the box for the report to run properly. I have only been with the company or 3 months, but we have used Aceess 97 and Access 2000 in the past and it is my understanding that in the old systems, this dialog would not pop up (The query, form, report, and code is unchanged0. Since we converted to Access 2002, this dialog pops up. The code behind the form, report, and in the associated modules is very immense (This report and form that drives it touches many diferent pieces of the system) so I'm not really about to inclued any code in this post. If anybody knows a quick and dirty trick to disable dialogs or any conceptual theories as to why this is occuring, please let me know.

Enter Parameter Value

Jun 1, 2007

I have searched other threads and cannot find one that helps solve my problem. So, I hope someone can help.

I have a query which runs ok until it is filtered. I have tried using criteria to filter the info I need but this returns an 'Enter Parameter Value' message. Running the query without using criteria works okay but using a filter in the report itself returns a 'Data Mismatch' message.

The report filters fine on fields until it gets to one that has been changed from text to number. It also includes an Nz formula. The formula in the is field is: CLng(Nz([order_no],0)). Other fields related to this also appear to be affected.

I need the CLng formula as the field is needed to calculate other fields using a zero instead of a null which would otherwise cause an error. I was given the formula on this forum yesterday, (thanks Bob Larson and AlanJ10), which was great in solving the other issue but is this is what is affecting filtering, (ie. a confusion between text and number?!?!) I have also tried converting the result of the calculation I want to filter back into text using CStr but this does not make any difference.

I have checked the field names and also renamed fields that were 'Expr' (as in default names for calculated fields), and cannot see any problems.


Thanks

Enter Parameter Value (need Help)

Sep 29, 2007

I have a query and one of the fields/headings i have it create is a "cost" total where it does a dlookup from a defaults table.

I then have a "listprice" which is antoher field in the querry of which the data table sits.

I want to take the [listprice] and minus the [cost] without re-creating the dlookup function...

I need this to help with an APR calulction using the RATE function which if i have it do all the dlookups it says I have exceeded the limitiation and will be trumcated. So if i use the name [cost] it works but i have to hit enter because it says "Enter Parameter Value".

Any ideas how to get around this?

Thank you.

Enter Parameter Value

Jan 26, 2008

I have the following query that gives me this halt. If I enter without responding to it it opens in Datasheet view as intended. It wants me to enter Query2.EmpID. This is my SQL statement.

SELECT qryPolicyByDriverName.CWSPolicy, qryPolicyByDriverName.EmpID, qryPolicyByDriverName.DriverName
FROM tblTrainingPoliciesNotCoveredDrivers INNER JOIN qryPolicyByDriverName ON tblTrainingPoliciesNotCoveredDrivers.CWSPolicy = qryPolicyByDriverName.CWSPolicy;

I don't know why this is happening. Thanks for looking at my problem.

Enter Parameter Value

Jul 9, 2005

ok im am not sure if this is in the right place but it seems to be a form problem.
i have a form that has a textbox(text1) which is used to enter a supplier name, the user then presses enter and another form opens up with all the supplier details.ok.
the code i have to do this is on the afterupdate of text1 which is unbound is
DoCmd.openform"SupplierDetails",,,"[Supplier Name]=" & Supplier name
when i use this code and the enter key is pressed an `Enter Parameter Value` dialog box appears with the supplier name under the blue title bar.if i then enter the supplier name again it opens the second form and displays all the details i want.
If i use the code
DoCmd.openform"SupplierDetails",,,"[Supplier Name]"= me.Supplier_name
it opens up the second form without the dialog box but it doesnt display any details.
is ther any way to adjust the first code so the dialog box isnt displayed and just goes straight to the second form and displaying the details.
i have gone through as many posts as i can but cant seem to find a fix.

any help would be appriciated thanks

Is It Possible To Enter The Contents Of The Parameter Value Box?

Jul 13, 2007

Does anyone know if it's possible to edit the contents of the "Enter Parameter Value" Box...for starters, I'd like to delete the phrase "Please Enter Parameter Value" as it means nothing to most users of Access; also, I'd like to format the text that I've entered in the query itself, i.e. make it bold, increase the size of it.

Incidentally, I did go down the route of linking my query to a form but this caused problems as I want more that one user to be able to view their particular parameter value at the same time.

Many thanks

Mystery 'Enter Parameter Value' Pop Up!

Nov 8, 2006

Hey all,

I have been looking everywhere on a search form and its related queries / tables for a missing value / error that causes this pop up:

Enter Parameter Value
=Date()

The report opens fine once that parameter error is cleared, and I cannot find what it is refering to at all. Does Access have any tools to help me track that down instead of blindly looking at every component piece by piece and hoping to stumble upon it?

I found the code below to clear P.V. errors (I think anyway - I would rather figure out what is causing it, but after way too much time spent on it, I still have had zero luck), and I have toyed with this and am having no luck:

Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
On Error Resume Next

Dim ctl As Control
Dim var As Variant
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset

Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(Me.RecordSource)

For Each ctl In Me.Controls
var = rst(ctl.ControlSource)

If Err = 438 Then ' Control has no Controlsource-property
Err.Clear
Resume Next
End If
If Err = 3265 Then ' Controlsource doesn't exist in recordsource
ctl.ControlSource = ""
Err.Clear
Resume Next
End If
Next ctl
End Sub


As always, any and all help is very appreciated!

Reports :: Enter Parameter Value Again

Oct 20, 2014

I have a command button that opens a report.In one of my reports, this macro works:

Code:
="[eEmployeeID]=" & [eEmployeeID]

However, in another command button that should open another report, the code below does not seem to work:

Code:
="[echEmployeeID]=" & [eEmployeeID]

It just keeps giving me errors saying that there's a mismatch, etc. The field in my report that holds Employee ID is named echEmployeeID. If I write this code:

Code:
="[echEmployeeID]=" & "[eEmployeeID]"

it sort of works, but Access asks me to enter parameter value first before executing the where condition. I already tried to change [echEmployeeID] to [eEmployeeID] both in the source table, and the report but it just doesn't work.

Enter Parameter Value Message - After Sorting

Nov 26, 2007

All,

SQL backend - Access frontend. All clients have the same frontend. Everybody can run the queries with [Please input value] as the criteria. Box pops up, they enter criteria and sort away, works fine.

On one machine, after sorting the results, it will always ask 'Enter Parameter Value'. I've relinked all the tables, checked for missing references, checked the ODBC, pulled across a replacement client. The query hasn't any ORDER BY clauses in, it's not linked to a report, it's just a simple query on one table. Except it seems on this one machine!

I've just tried stripping down the query to a couple of fields and changed the field the user has to input on. Same problem when I sort. So I've tried another table - same problem. It's as though the query is running and then forgetting the criteria?

I really want to put the PC in the skip now but it's got to be something relatively simple. Hasn't it?!!

Any ideas as to which way to turn would be much appreciated!

Many thanks

Enter Parameter Value On Close In Windows XP

Feb 14, 2005

I have a problem on one of my forms that is used for maintaining subcontractor info. I use a list box as record selector, and the data source is a query based on which sub is selected from the list box. The list box itself is populated by a query, which uses an unbound check box (IncludeInactive) on the form to either include or exclude active subs. It all works fine except when I exit. I have a close form button, and when ever I use it to close the form, it gives me an “Enter Paramet Value” message for IncludeInactive. I don’t understand why. The only place it is referenced is the listbox, and it is only used while selecting a sub. The really odd thing is if I exit the screen use the close window button, I don’t get the error. My close form button is a simple DoCmd.Close, and has no other code in it. Can anyone give me any ideas where to look. I have reviewed the little VB code there is, and I don’t see anything.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Tables :: Enter Parameter Value When ID Is Changed

Jul 17, 2013

In Access 2010, I have a database with 2 tables "group" and "member". They have a many-to-one relationship with nultiple members per group. Group has identifier "ID" and Member has field "Group Code" that matches with "ID". Formerly we called this field "Bulgiin kod" but needed to translate it. When we changed "Bulgiin kod" to "Group Code", now when we expand the group records (click the + button next to the row) it gives "enter parameter value" box. I tried deleting the relationship and re-creating it but without success. If I change the Group Code back to its original value, everything works fine.

Here is another thing I noticed: if I enter the value of ID into the parameter value box, it just shows the entire Member table, regardless of the actual matches. So if I expand ID #15, and enter "15", the whole Member table displays under the record.
