Forms :: Change Form Details Based On Two Combo Boxes
Jun 12, 2014
I have two combo boxes in the form header and command buttons in the form detail. The combos allow the user to select either a customer or a prospect, then the command buttons open forms that only show records pertaining to the customer or prospect selected. Combos are "4Custcbo" and "4Proscbo".
1.How do I change which command buttons are available depending on whether the user has selected a customer or a prospect? Do I use two different subforms or is there a better way?
2.How do I hide the other combo box once the user has selected either a customer or a prospect?

I have a form that currently uses a "catch all" table for listing available equipment to choose from for an equipment field. I call it tblEquipment. What I want to do is to make it so when I type a name in (1 of 35) in one field of the current record, the record source for the equipment field immediately looks at a different table that has equipment available only for that name. To do this I plan on making 35 different tables with limited data originally found in tblEquipment. I would call these tblEquipment1, tblEquipment2, etc. I do not use a sub form, nor do I want to.
So my questions are:
1) can this be done
2)If it can be done, how can I do it?

My database is using data that is entered by the employees to generate Quotations. There is one important piece of information that will not be entered by the employee. The quotes involve metals which are priced based on market price and weight. I am planning on integrating a data feed with this information, but for now I want to enter it manually in a table. The price depends on two combo boxes one for "Precious or Base Metals", and one for "Metal Name". I want those two values to call the price from a table, and automatically fill in the "Market Price" field in the form.Also once that is in I would like to do my calculations. I am planning on using queries to do these. Is that the correct method?

I have been looking some information on changing image based on form combo box selection on form.
I manage to do case by case but i need it in a simple code because their will be many employees just to avoid adding case by case code for each one.
Private Sub Emp_IDCombo_AfterUpdate()
Select Case Emp_IDCombo.Value
Case "AM-001"
Imageholder.Picture = "C:UsersAMGDesktopam-001.jpg"
Case "AM-002"
Imageholder.Picture = "C:UsersAMGOne DocumentsHR & Admin DatabaseEmployee Picturesam-002.jpg"
End Select
I have employees table where all images location is saved in text field and i have a combo box on form which is employee id.
Tables relationship
Employees_table [PK] to Contracts_table [FK] via field name {emp_ID}
Fields Name
Combo Box name on form Emp_IDCombo and row source is SELECT Employees_table.Emp_ID, Employees_table.EmployeeName, Employees_table.Emp_Pics FROM Employees_table;
Text field is located in employees_table called [Emp_Pic] for images location.

So I have a combobox that pulls values from a table. I am being requested to do an update to the database which means that I have to filter some values on that combobox based on a field on a previous form.For example:The main form is called "frmcontacts" and has a table field called "txttypeofcustomer" which can have two values: "customer" or "dealer".
The form that contains the combobox is called "frmnewissue" the combobox is called "cmbissuetype". "frmNewIssue" is opened through a button on "frmContacts". This combobox pulls the values from a table "tblissuetype". The values in that combobox are then: "Repair" "Return" "Question" "Replace".
If the value on txtTypeofCustomer is "Dealer" then all the values for the combobox remain visible. If the value of txtTypeOfCustomer is "Customer" then "Replace" cannot be visible or has to be greyed out.

I am trying to make a search option in my form header. Right now I have two unbound combo boxes (CboAccountsfilter and cboCourseName) that I can use to filter my records. Currently, I can use the drop down for CboAccountsfilter and a list of accounts will appear. When I select one, the corresponding Course Names will appear in cboCourseName. This works fine...Code below. I would like to take the filtering a step farther and add checkboxes to filter the data. I my form, there currently exist several check boxes (yes/no)...(Priority, Rep Top Target, Manager Top Target, ect). I would like to have the option to use a check box to filter. I.E if I had a checkbox in my header called PriorityFilter, if checked it would only bring up those records that met the two combo boxes criteria and was a priority.
Below is the code I have so far...it doesnt have anything for the checkbox because I am at a lost of how to get started.
Private Sub CboAccountsfilter_Change()
Me.Requery
Me.cboCourseName.Requery
Me.Check178.Requery
End Sub
[code]...

I have a form called frmPO based on a table called tblPO One of the fields in tblPO is linked to the field idAddress in the table tblAddresses
The following fields exist in both tblAddresses and tblPO
Company
Address1
Address2
City
ZP
State
The form contains controls for these fields on tblPO. I would like to give the user the choice to either enter a shipping address manually, or selecting a preregistered address from tblAdresses. For this I would like a combo box showing the values of idAddress. I f a user selects a preregistered shipping address, I would like the form to fill the rest of the fields based on the value of this control.
My understanding is that I should set a BeforeUpdate event to set the values of the different controls, unfortunately my command of VBA amounts to 0.

I have a form and a subform with a master/child relationship set based on the primary key of each underlying table. All good there.Now, I want to use VBA to create a filter based on a set of inputs via combo boxes. But the filter must filter both the Parent and Child records.Example. "Show me only records where both only the Parent.Field1 = "string" and Child.Field = "string".I can do this in a QRY as follows:
SELECT Projects.[Project Number], Lessons.[Actions Resolved]
FROM Projects INNER JOIN Lessons ON Projects.ProjectsRecordID = Lessons.ProjectsRecordID
WHERE (((Projects.[Project Number])="AU-2102421") AND ((Lessons.[Actions Resolved])=True));
But, if I make this as a record source for the Parent Form, then the records in the Parent Form are repeated for each individual record in the Child form.

Hey guys, I'm not sure if this is possible, and it is the most challenging thing that I have tried to implement into my database to date.
What I have is a booking form which allows you to Add Bookings for camera kits.
When a customer comes in and would like to book a kit, the form must be filled in with the relevant details, I have 2 combo boxes on this form.
The first is the Kit selection, there are 5 camera kits.
The second is an option to book the full kit out, or just components.
So here's the tricky part...
When the first combo box selection is made (eg. Kit 3) I need the Kit3 table to be active.
Then, when the user selects "Components" from the second combo box, I need a form to open up based on both of the above.
So a form based on tblKit3 would be opened and the user can manually select the components that they require to be booked out.
Any help at all would be appreciated.

I have a query with the fields employee_name, shiftname, shiftdate and have set it up so that 2 input messages boxes popup allowing the user to input a shiftname (a,b,c) then a shiftdate. from this query i have created a form, but instead of having 2 message boxes popup on screen before the form is loaded is it possible to have 2 input fields on the form (one for shift date & one for shiftname) that allows the user to enter into these fileds whenever they wish provided the form is open and all the records bellow change matching the employee name with the corresponding shiftname & date?, any advice would be great.

I'm trying to create a form which filters a report based off of combo boxes selected by the user. The code I'm using currently is:
Code:
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptProgramAttendees", acViewReport, , "ProgramIDFK = " & cboProgramTitle
This works great to return a report if the user selects something from the combo box. How do I adapt this so that the user can also leave the combo box blank and filter the report to return all records?Additionally, what if I want to have the user filter between dates selected on the form; i.e. between 'txtStart' and 'txtEnd'

Hi everyone,
I have two combo boxes on the same form bound to a table. I want the contents of the next combo box to change based on the previous combo selection e.g
cboContinent cboCountry
Africa Zambia
Africa Congo
Africa South africa
Europe England
Europe Holland
If I choose Africa in cboContinent, I want to see only Zambia, South Africa and Congo under cboCountry and if I choose Europe I want to see only England and Holland
Thanks

I have a form with combo boxes that works beautifully, but I've been asked to add another feature to it. It requires adding a button that runs a query and displays the query results on the screen.The query code is:
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT Product.MSDS
FROM Product INNER JOIN tblStoreProducts ON Product.[ProductKey] = tblStoreProducts.[ProductKey]
WHERE (((tblStoreProducts.MaxUnits)<>0) AND (([Product.HazardKey])<>79))
GROUP BY Product.MSDS, tblStoreProducts.StoreKey
HAVING (((Product.MSDS) Is Not Null))
ORDER BY Product.MSDS;
One of the existing buttons on the form has this code behind it:
Code:
' btnHMIS_Click
Private Sub btnHMIS_Click()
On Error GoTo Err
If IsNull(Me.cboCompany) Then
[code]....
As you can see, the button is able to pass the parameters (which Company, and which Store within the company) to the report.
Code:
' btnMSDSSheetsPrint_Click
Private Sub btnMSDSSheetsPrint_Click()
On Error GoTo btnMSDSSheetsPrint_Click_Err
[code]...
How do I pass the StoreKey information into the query? Is it my query that's wrong?

I have a main form with a sub form in continuous form view. The main form displays across the top and allows the user to enter the required 4 fields of info and then tab to the subform. Here each record is a line where the user has a number of text boxes to enter the required fields. There are 2 fields that are combo boxes that are limited to the lists - the first combo box is Observation and when the user selects their choice the 2nd combo box refreshes and gives them the choices of Categories within that Observation.
I am stuck on how to make the combo boxes "independent". Right now, if the user is in record 1 of the subform and selects an observation, the 2nd combo in that record refreshes and displays the records correctly of the categories available for that observation. Then the categories are "stuck" on whatever observation was selected in record 1 when record 2 is created. If in the 2nd record (or any other) the user selects a different observation, the categories in all records display the choices for that observation.
The categories need to be reflective of the observation within each record.

I have searched on internet for the method of synchronizing two combo boxes in a form based on Update Event. The problem was solved partially with this video : (link is not posted due to lesser number of posts. But it can be found on net, it's title is "Synchronizing Combo Boxes on Forms in Access 2007 " from Office Developer Centre.
When I followed the instructions in the video, it works but showed only the ID numbers of the categories in the first combobox. and the corresponding products in the second combo. Why cant I see the names of the categories? In the video, the names are visible in combo, I followed the same code but instead of names, IDs are shown.

I have a database and a form that is based off of a simple table. The table has NO look ups and all of the formatting is text. The form is continuous and simply displays these fields. (Kind of like a company roster with name and department). I have two combo boxes at the top of this form in the header with the intent of filtering the form records by department and employee type (lets say A or B).
I have tried every way I know how to get these records to filter and they will not filter correctly. Utilizing methods I have used in multiple other databases, I set the two comboboxes to cascade based on a query in the recordsource. The vba I'm using in the after event of each combo is ....
Me.Filter = "[Brand] = '" & Me.cbobrand & "'"
Me.FilterOn - True
'Brand is the "department" and the other identical code is for Personel_Type
This filters the records but independently. So, cbobox1 filters the records to show all Brand 1. When cbobox2 selection is made it shows all the Personel_Type of the selection however the first filter is already disregarded. (i.e. When cbobox2 selection is made, it contains both brands instead of the one I've just selected and filtered in cbobox1. )
Outside of making two queries to account for each possible filter, I have tried setting a filter on the filterON, I have tried a SQL based VBA code, I have tried making two forms and attempting to set the filter on open but either way, nothing keeps the first filter selected (or the FilterON, or both SQL filters, etc). The ONLY way I have found to get it to filter both is with the filter function in Access, which is not useful as my users will not have access to the menu bars.
I have this EXACT same setup in another database and it works fine with 3 cbo boxes with an after even to set a filter for the recordsource for all three.

I have created a simple database, with 2 x tables. The first is a 'Week Ending' table, with a dateid key and Week Ending field. I have created several week-ending dates in order for a user to input details of work done the previous week. The second table contains the details of the work.
I have a one to many relationship between the dateid in the first table, and a dateid of the work details table.
I created a query based on the work details table, and created a subform from that. In a main form I linked a combo box to allow a user to select a date and the relevant work details appear in the subform. However the Week Ending field only shows one date, not a list of the dates I created.

I have a little "y2k issue".
My DB has many (!) forms that are based on Crosstabs queries. The headers are years, and therefore my formfields has controlsources like 2014, 2015 and so on.
Example:
The table it comes from looks something like this:
tblProject
Project: Myproject
Value: 1000
EndYear: 2014
The crosstab then takes the EndYear as a coloumn header. Then my forms use these fields, now named 2014, 2015, 2016 .... and give me a nice looking table showing the accumulated "end" for multiple projects.
The problem is when the year changes after 31/12, all fields must manually be changed. This means I have to manually change 2014 to 2015, 2015 to 2016 and so on in all of my formsfields controllsource.
I have played around to find a way to change the source of the field, and hoped I could say something like =year(now()) and for the next year say =year(now())+1 but this only returns that year as a value, and not as a controlsource...
The query functions nicely (ive changed the system time, and it has no issues with this structure), but the forms source is still in the previous year, and returns and error (of course).
When the year changes past new years eve, so will the headers (fieldname) change... but how to make the form change fieldsource?

Hey all,
I'm new to Microsoft Access but I'm not new to programming. What I want to do is when the combo box triggers and On Change event, do the following:
SELECT user_email FROM user WHERE user_first LIKE '[COMBO BOX CHOICE]'
Then set the value of that query to the textbox called "reportedEmail". I know this is easy, but I can't seem to find a decent tutorial on it anywhere.
Suggestions?
Thanks,
- MT

I would like to take advantage of using combo boxes to search records on a form but do not want user to be able to edit or change any of the data. Setting the form to read only of course, disallows use of any controls on the form.
