Forms :: Change A Subform To A Popup Form
Sep 24, 2013
I had a subform to enter payments. It worked well. The master and child fields linked well and all the necessary data appended to a new record in the payments table.
Now to make it more user friendly, I changed the subform to a popup form (The 2 forms took up too much real estate on the screen).I deleted the payments subform and created a command button to open the payments form as a popup.
I need 3 fields on the payments form to be populated from the edit sponsor form (sponsorID, MemberID, SponsorTypeID) and then payment details to be entered and posted to a new record in the payments table.Since I've changed the payment form from a subform to a popup form, the master/child relationships are gone and the 3 fields I need for the payment record no longer appear.

I have a continuous Form [Letter Log - All] with "LetterNo" field as the primary key. What i want to do is click the "LetterNo" and a filtered pop up form with subform should appear based on what has been clicked. But i don't have luck doing that. The name of the main form is "LetterLog" and its subform control name is "LetterLogSub"
here is what i did.
Code:
Private Sub LetterNo_Click()
'DoCmd.OpenForm "LetterLogSub", acNormal, , "LetterNo = " & Me.LetterNo, acFormEdit, acDialog <-- this one works but without the subform
'DoCmd.OpenForm "LetterLog", acNormal, , "Forms!LetterLog!LeteterLogSub.Form.LetterNo = " & Me.LetterNo, acFormEdit, acDialog
'DoCmd.OpenForm "LetterLog", acNormal, "LetterNo", "me.LetterLogSub.Form!LetterNo = " & Me.LetterNo, acFormReadOnly, acDialog
DoCmd.OpenForm "LetterLog", acNormal, "LetterNoFilter", "Forms!LetterLog!LetterLogSub.form!LetterNo = " & Me.LetterNo, acFormEdit, acDialog
End Sub

I tried all sorts of permutations of the requery command but apparently I'm too dense to figure it out.
Form 1
subform 1 > button to open pop up form
subform 2
subform 3
I'm trying to requery a combo box (inside of subform 1) based on a table that is updated from the pop up form.
On pop up form close, what's the correct syntax for re-querying subform 1?

I can't seem to get this to work. I have a Mainfrm with a Subfrm. On the Subfrm I have a field that has to be a concatenation of two inputs. To do this I have created a PopUpfrm for that field that has two list boxes. The user then chooses one from ListA and one from ListB. This populates an unbound field (fldCode) on the PopUpfrm. I need to pass this data to the original field on the Subfrm.
I've tried:
Forms!Mainfrm!Subfrm.Form.Field1 = me.fldCode
and every possible iteration of this that I can figure out.
Any suggestions on how to pass this information back to the Subfrm.Field1?
If I run just the Subfrm, w/o opening the Mainfrm everything works great. I guess I just don't know how to reference that field when it is actually in the Mainfrm.
Thanks in advance

I have my main form which is f_main.
On there is a Subform called subfrmFront and that has a source object of the form f_front
A button on f_main opens up a popup. In this popup, the fields I am updating all relate to the same records that are being displayed in the subform. Everything updates OK in the popup (i.e I can see in the table that the updated information is in there), but the subform back on f_main still has the old data in it.
I need to requery that subform to show the new data I just inputted.
If I close f_main and re-open it, the latest data is in there, but surely there is a way to make sure it updates on the close of the popup form.

So I created a new form that multiple coworkers will have access to. I understand that you can password protect an entire data base, but I was wondering if you could go deeper than that. I have a main form with a combo box (query to show existing IDs) for "ClientID" that links the main form and subform (Its controlsource is ClientID from the table the subform was created off of). If a user selects an existing ClientID, the linked subform pops up with the selected ClientID displayed on the subform in a field along with existing additional information displayed. If The user types in an ID not in the database, a blank subform comes up for the coworker to create this new record and the field for ClientID is blank.
1) How can I make it so that when a coworker types in a ClientID in the combobox that is not in the database, the blank subform that pops up has the ClientID field filled out with what was typed in the main form.
2) Situation: Adding a new client to the main form, and filling out the additional in on the popup subform. I want there to be a field on the main form for "worker". The worker will put their ID and create a new client record. Is it possible to make it only possible for this worker to edit this client record in the future? ...the original creator will be the only one able to edit the information.
-I am thinking maybe have a table with all workers and associated passwords. So, if a user tries to open a subform created by another worker, he will be prompted to enter a password (which will be the one associated to the creator in this "secret" table.

I have a "Main" form called frmProjects that sports multiple tabs. One of those tabs is labelled "Milestones", into which I inserted a datasheet subform called frmSubMilestones. The table that feeds the subform is tblMilestones. I established the parent / child relationship between frmProject and frmSubMilestones, and everything is working just fine...
To summarize: frmProject as main form -> Milestones Tab on main form -> frmSubMilestones as datasheet subform on the Milestones Tab (there are other tabs that are not subforms).
I have been asked, for each milestone in the frmSubMilestones subform's datasheet, to capture the number of days spent by employees on a monthly basis. The Milestones table and the PersonDays table have a primary key and a foreign key that are similar.
To summarize: frmSubMilestones as subform -> txtAggregatePersonDays as calculated Textbox fetching data from tblPersonDays -> OnClick event -> FormLoad of frmPersonDays as datasheet PopUp form.
DoCmd.FormLoad is supplied with the usual parameters to make the PopUp form appear, filtered on the currently highlighted milestone. Everything works fine so far... well almost.
Problem 1: When I introduce new rows in the frmPersonsDays datasheet, everything seems fine at the surface, BUT the primary key of the calling form (i.e. frmSubMilestones) does not appear in the tblPersonDays table; this is normal because there is no form-based parent / child relationship between the two forms. As one might expect, I am trying, from frmPersonDays, to get the primary key value from the "parent" frmSubMilestones using the Forms collection. No dice. I surfed and surfed, tried the bang and the dot operators, drank scotch, but nothing worked. I had to add foreing keys manually in tblPersonDays to further my tests. I can't figure out how to reach any control on the calling form, which is a subform.
Problem 2: The calculated txtAggregatePersonDays on the frmSubMilestones works wonders for existing data in tblPersonDays. However, when I introduce new rows in the PopUp form, I also realized that the calculated Textbox in frmSubMilestones is not updated when I close the frmPersonDays PopUp. I have to close the PopUp form and move the cursor in the Main form (frmProjects) to refresh its associated milestones.

In my Student Administration database I am trying to launch a popup form from a sub-form of a Job Positions and Seekers form. The sub form is actually one of 2 sub-forms, both Continuous Forms default view, on a form linked via an unbound control (MasterJobPosID).
The first sub-form is called and lists open Job Positions and the 2nd sub form is called and lists all Students Seeking each of the positions. The Students Seeking subform is linked to the unbound control MasterJobPosID in the main form which is set to equal the Job Positions subform's JobPosRecNo field which is the key to the Job Positions table.
The popup form is called Job Employment and is being launched via an event macro from the Students Seeking subform. It will allow the user to create a record in the Job Employment table. The event macro has a Where statement that says "=JobPositionID And Student", an attempt to link it to both the Job Position record being filled and the Student filling it.
I am able to populate the popup form's fields in expressions setting Default Values equal to fields on the loaded Job Positions subform and the Student from the Students Seeking subform. What I am unable to get is the Job Position record key from any of the 3 fields it appears in on the Job Positions and Seekers form:
MasterJobPosID on the main form.JobPosRecNo on the Job Positions sub form.JobPositionID on the Students Seeking subform.
I want that to link the new Job employment record to the Job Position record the student is filling. In fact I get a parameter prompt for JobPositionID when the popup form is launched.

Hello,
I am trying to run a macro on doubleclick in a subform (dataview) that will open the same record in a popup form (tabular).
I've enter in the macro Where Condition the following statement to only show the record I doubleclicked on in the popup. The only problem is it's asking me for a parameter value for the LogID. Its apparently not picking up the LogID I doubleclicked on. Is there any way I can fine-tune this WHere statement so that it knows the record LogID I clicked on. (The pop up form should show only the same record).
[LogID]=[Forms]![CommunicationLog Subform]![LogID]

Is it possible to show an alert/reminder any time data in a particular field is entered or changed? It would have to show up if the data was changed in table view or query view.
Until I can write something that will store historical data for these fields, I want to make sure anyone entering information will record the old information in a separate table. Yes, I know this is not the ideal way to store the type of data; but this database has been running for 10+years and is tied in to so many aspects of the company re-writing it is just not an option ...

I have a main form bound to a query. Within that form, I have a button which calls up another form (pop up form). I simply want value of the "claim#" field-control to display in the "claim#" field-control of the pop-up form.

I am having issues with a split form which modal and emergent (pop-up) properties are set to yes. When I open it, it is maximized or out of the size I had setup; although I saved it trying to "freeze" the height and width.

I'm working on a database that has a subform which pulls its data from a table and I'm trying to use a popup form to enter the data in the sub form. For example the table is called student debts. The form is called student debt. The pop up form is called student debt entry from. I want the inform that's in the student debt entry form to be recorded in the student debt form which is a subform on the main form. I know i have to create a add new records button to do it but not sure of the code.

How can I make a button in a pop-up form to send enter key to a text box in another form? Do I need to set focus to the other form first? And how?

I have two tables - Interviews & Placements.these tables have multiple foreign keys which pull information from other tables (CandidateID,ClientID etc). I have designed queries and forms (datasheet view) which display all the values that I need, For example:
The interview form shows the following fields:
CandidateName;Company;consultant;1stInterviewDate; 2ndInterviewDate;Offer;Accepted
the placements form shows the following fields:
PlacedCandidate;Company;Consultant;PlacementDate;F ee;
This query "qry_Interviews" populates these forms using the foreign keys:
CandidateID from candidates table
CompanyID from companies table
consultant from consultants table
Ideally what I'd like to happen, is when the "accepted" field is updated on the interviews form, the placements form opens as a pop up and is auto populated with the values (CandidateName;Company & consultant).So far I have tried setting the value directly, i.e on the "on Open" event of the Placements form I entered:
Me.Txtcontactname = Forms!ISISnavigationMain!navigationSubform.Form!DS .Name
This does not work. Should I be populating the placements form with the actual Foreign key values rather than the resolved names? Ideally I'd want the pop up placements form to display the actual names rather than just ID numbers.

I have a popup called by a subform to add a new record or edit a selected record. I keep getting "Runtime error 32502". The value you entered isn't valid for the field "|"
I have no required fields and all the drop down related fields have the right value type in them (That I can find)The only "|" reference I can find is in the OpenArgs content below when I load the form. If I'm adding a new record I pass two fileds via the OpenArgs
Private Sub Command52_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "AddDebtorPaymentFrm", , , , acFormAdd, OpenArgs:=Me![DebtorId] & "|" & Me![MatterId]
End Sub
or if I'm modifying a record from the subform on click I
Private Sub Text38_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "AddDebtorPaymentFrm", acNormal, , "[Transactions].[TransId] = " & Me.TransId, acFormEdit
End Sub
Below is the Popup Load code
Private Sub Form_Load()
If Me.DataEntry = True Then
Me.VariableHeading = "Add A Debtor Payment"

I have a popup form that user will select for updating 4 fields in table. I have a update button that has code behind it that verifies the record is complete before closing the popup form. That works well.
However, I want to add an abort button that will close the form and save nothing entered however, I getting incomplete records and blank records. How can I code the button to not update the table and just close the form?

I am designing a transactions database for some of my clerical staff. I've inserted a data entry subform into the main transactions form (which also has a subform that summarizes all the selected company's past transactions). This data entry subform actually has as it's record source a table that simply stores that one record temporarily.
So when the user is finished entering their current transaction, I have a Save button that actually just opens a popup form which displays the data they entered into the data entry subform, giving them a chance to verify their entry is accurate. This form has a Save button which runs an append query and a delete query, adding the record to the permanent Transacations table and also clearing the temp table.
The problem I have, I think, is that when the popup form opens, the main form data entry subform still has that record locked as exclusive. I believe this is the case because while I am indeed able to make changes to the fields on the popup form, none of these changes appear in the temp table. In other words, the user is not actually able to use the confirmation pop up form to make any necessary edits to their entry. This makes the form sort of useless!

I'm trying to do right click menu on listbox.
currently i'm trying to implement a right click menu which will show a simple messege box.
My problem is that the list box is on a pop up form which opened up maximized. Now when i'm right clicking on the list box i see the right click menu but when i'm clicking on one of the menu options, nothing happenning (it seems that it don't go to the function as it should). i've also putted breakpoints on the function but it never tips.
It's important to mention that if i'm setting the form popup option to no the right click menu works perfectly (when i'm clicking on one of the options i see its matching messege box).
I'm running the following vba code:
This is the mouse up event handler for my list box:
Private Sub Song_List_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
' Call the SetUpContextMenu function to ensure it is setup with most current context
' Note: This really only needs to be setup once for this example since nothing is
[Code] .....
setting up the "SetUpContextMenu" sub:
Public Sub SetUpContextMenu()
' Note: This requires a reference to Microsoft Office Object Library
Dim combo As CommandBarControl
' Since it may have been defined in the past, it should be deleted,
' or if it has not been defined in the past, the error should be ignored
[code].....

I have a form (Access 2010) in which i insert contracts; each contract has a start and an expiry date, but instead of dd/mm/yyyy i would like the user to be able to insert just the year, while the day and month are predefined values and they are automatically inserted (i.e. 01/10/yyyy; the year being the only value that changes, and it is manually inserted by the user).
I would like to set a pop up remainder (on form load) x days before the expiry date, but, because too many of them have the same expiry date i am wondering if the reminder can be set on different days, based on another field (i.e. partner location [country]).. i.e. reminder for contracts with Austria to pop up 60 days before expiring, for UK = 67 days and so on.. or even a specific day for each, i.e. for Austria = 01/08/yyyy, for UK 01/09/yyyy).

I have a mainform with a listbox and a subform sitting in the mainform. The default view of mainform is single. The listbox displays a list of people. When the user clicks on a row of the listbox the subform shows detailed data about that person. The layout of the subform covers almost half of the area of the mainform. It works except that the subform automatically takes table view as if there were many records to display although it displays only the selected record. This automatic manipulation of the default view does not look good at all.

I have a subform I am using on a form. I would like to modify the code below that I have for a button on the form. I would like to use the master and child field link in the code below to only show candidates related to the main form. The link is candidate id. I have this working with a subform on the form but I would like to have this only display as a pop-up once the user clicks the button on the form. Is this possible? Thanks..

I am currently developing a crude Contact manager database and need a quick way of entering data into a selection of records (around 1000 at a time). At the moment I am manually going through all records and changing the "DateLastEmail" field manually, which can be very tiring.
Any way to assign a button to change the field for all records to today's date or something of the like.
Currently I have a form which filters my subform. The subform resides as a seperate query and when the "Apply Filter" button is pressed it requeries with a change of .filter property, so I guess that all that needs to be done is to change all records that exist within the query, but I am stuck on a way to do this without manually entering it.
