I'm currently making a signup form for a 6day event.
Certain details are taken (Name, Age, Contact no etc).
I also have a registration form; so when someone comes back for the second day of the event I tick the 'saturday' checkbox, or 'monday', or whatever the day is...
When someone comes to sign up for the first time, I'd like the form to automatically check the box for that day (to indicate their attendance). This would save me opening two forms to signup one person, if I make sense.
So, when someone comes to register on a Tuesday, I fill in all their details - and then it automatically checks the 'tuesday' field box.
I have a data field (status) that is either Graduated, Terminated, or Current. I also have a report that has a check box representing each (such as a check box for graduated and another for Terminated etc).
I am trying to get the report to read the status and check the appropriate box in the report.
I have tried this in the control source of the checkbox =IIf([status]="terminated";True;False) but this does not work
I have also tried this on the OnOpen
If [status] = "terminated" then termcheck = true else termcheck = false end if end sub
But this does not work either - what am I doing wrong :confused:
I'm after a piece of code which works as described below.
I have a save button on a form
I have a append query ready to run.
When the save button is clicked, I want the code to see if a checkbox is true or not and if its true I want the append query to run if its not then I want the form to save and nothing else.
I have a form (Access 2010) that we use to keep track of client data. When I enter a number equal to 6 or above in one field (Client Rating and this field is actually formatted as text because it could be 6 or 6a, b, c or 7 or 7a, b, c, etc), I want anything =>6 to automatically check a box in another field which is the Watch Indicator box (a yes/no box), how would I do this?
I tried to create an expression like the below on the Watch Indicator check box and it does not work - not sure why - it did not say it was incorrect, I think I may have it in the wrong place?
I have a form wich includes listbox of employees. When I click on them, it shows his or her data (date of birth,address,etc...). For every employee there are also three diferent checkboxes - if he is regularly employed, temporaly employed or student.So now what I need is to filter listbox of employees - only student or only regular or only temporar or all.I was wondering if I can do that with combobox, but I really dont know how. I am prety new to VBA.
I have a checkbox which when checked then turns textboxes to locked as below. However when I navigate to the next record which may not be checked the text boxes remain locked. I obviously want to lock the boxes depending on each record. I am navigating via the windows next/back record buttons. How do i do it?
Private Sub Check44_Click() If Check44.Value = -1 Then serial.Locked = True gain.Locked = True swst.Locked = True Else serial.Locked = True gain.Locked = True swst.Locked = True End If End Sub
Hi! I have a database and I have two groups of users: admins and users. The admins' switchboard is different than the users' switchboard. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to tell the db to open the admin switchboard if the admin logs in, or the user switchboard if the user logs in. Any suggestions? Is this even possible? I'm looking forward to your replies. Thanks!
Essentially I am trying to build a macro or even a VBA script which would open an initial form with various data entry options, and then depending on the options chosen it would open specific forms sequentially with some preset data values.
I can go into more detail if needed; however, the problem is at my work (lab in an industrial plant) my coworkers and I waste a lot of time inputting data as our forms just include every field (which only around 10% of fields are utilized for each entry) because certain circumstances will dictate what fields need to be filled in, so for each entry most fields are left blank. These circumstances are entirely predictable as to what fields I will need for each entry so I thought I would easily be able to figure this out on my own but I have been unable to do so.
On the sub form I am selecting products that I am selling to a customer whose details appear on the main form.
The products on the sub form are selected from a combo box. This section is in datasheet format.
Depending on the product sold some of the labels on the sub form are not relevant. And when this is the case I was thinking maybe the label is rendered invisible.
Maybe this is not the best way to handle this - or is it. It certainly is expedient.
Perhaps as well when the label is rendered invisible entry of a value into the corresponding text box becomes impossible.
Is there a better way to handle this?
How I can render the label invisible and disallow data entry depending on the value of the combo box.
In the database, there is a table called "Jobs" which sales enquiries are entered into. In this table, there are fields called "JobStatus" which has the default text of "Quotation Pending" and a combo box "JobLive" which is a "yes/no" field. Normally a job will come in as quotation request and the "JobsLive" field will be set to "no".
Occasionally, a job will come in as confirmed from the outset. In this case, the job will be marked as "live" in the combo box "JobLive". Is it possible to change the "JobStatus" field to "Job Live" when this combo box is changed to "yes"?At any other stage, the "JobStatus" field will be changed using an update query as and when changes are made.
I have this code that should change backgroundcolor in multiple items form based on a value of a field:
Private Sub Form_Current() 'check if field on form called somefield is DVD If Me.TYPE.Value = "DVD" Then Detail.BackColor = vbRed 'DVD Else Detail.BackColor = 16777215 'BOOK End If End Sub
I have a box with age in called [agecalc]. I want to change the border of the box to red to indicate they are a Juvenile if under the age of 17.I already have some code to write the text, I just need to change the border of this text box called agebox
I have a Table table_clients and a connected table (1-->many) table_invoices.
I have two forms:
form1(table_clients): all clients with subform1(table_invoices): all invoices for every client
the form2 and subform2 are the same, just objects are placed differently on page.
I want when I have opened a record on form1/subform1, to be able to click a button and open form2/subform2 filtered by the invoice_id and the client_id.
I am creating a database to manage multiple mobile devices. The table structure is complete and I'm trying to build a set of forms.
Simplifying things, I have tblUser, tblSim and tblDevice. I also have a tblJoin where you can select a UserID, SimID and DeviceID to create an item of inventory.
I have created a parent form (frmCreateInventory) base on tblJoin, so it has JoinID and combo boxes for UserID, SimID and DeviceID in the lefthand side.
I have also set up 3 sub forms sfrmUser, sfrmDevice and sfrmSim, based on their respective tables, which I want to display on the right hand side of frmCreateInventory.
I'd like to be able to create a subform control in frmCreateInventory, but change the subform it displays based on what combo box is clicked, e.g. if I click the UserID control, the subform displays sfrmUser, and the relevant data based on the UserID that is linked to the JoinID. if I click the DeviceID control, the sfrmDevice is displayed and the relevant info etc. etc.
Is this possible? if so, how would I go about doing this?
I have a form which has a combobox where the user selects a record from another table,I want to hide the forms fields [managercontact] and [managertelno] depending on the value of the combobox (manager) from the table details, but its not the value shown in the combobox its the value of another field [type] from the same table called details. Its one of two values being 'conc' or 'ob'.
In Access 2007 (or 2010 , 2013), in a continuous form, I want to change the background colour of a text box depending on its value. Obviously, for each record, the color can be different.
I would like to only display certain fields on a form depending on a criteria in another cell. For example if some enters 4 in 'Schemes' it would display 4 data entry boxes scheme1, scheme2, scheme3 etc - is it possible?
I have a textbox & button that when entered & pushed - run a query for the top values randomly depending on the value entered into the textbox.
My code is...
strSQL = "SELECT TOP " & Me.Text140.Value & " [CAN - NAME].Name, [CAN - CPT/VOUCHER].Voucher_Number, " & _ "[CAN - CPT/VOUCHER].Procedure_Code, [CAN - CPT/VOUCHER].Service_Date_From, [CAN - CPT/VOUCHER].Patient_ID, [CAN - CPT/VOUCHER].service_id, Rnd([service_id]) AS RandomNum " & _ "FROM [CAN - CPT/VOUCHER], [CAN - NAME] WHERE [CAN - CPT/VOUCHER].Service_Date_From Between " & Me.StartDate.Value & " And " & Me.EndDate.Value & " ORDER BY Rnd([service_id]) DESC "
It runs like it should but doesn't populate any records...that is until I go into the design view, deselect one of the fields and then reselect the same one - only then does it populate.
Do I need to open the query first and then update/append instead?
I'm looking to have either a combo box,, or 2 options buttons (whichever is easiest) that set a date field based on what is selected in the combo box/ option buttons.
The variables are 'Payment in 30 days" " Payment upfront"
if "payment in 30 days" is selected the date field on the form will enter the date as + 30 days from todays date if "payment upfront" is selected the field on the form will enter todays date.
This date field must be blank unless an option is selected, as this information is only entered in a later stage of the form.
I've tried a few different ways to enter this but i can't quite get it to work as i want.
I want to add a combo box to a form, where depending on the values entered in the box another combo box would show more values. In other words, if the first combobox had choices of 1, 2, 3 and 4, if 1 was selected the next combo box would have values a, b, c and d. If 2 was selected, it would have values of a, d, e, f and g.
I have a database of books. I have a combobox listing 3 different status W M R.
W is for Whats next to read, M is for more books too read and R for books read or reading now. I can enter a new book by calling up the add a book form from any of those 3 forms.
If I forget to enter a letter in the combo box then the book is lost to those 3 forms as what they see depends on that status letter and I have to go to the table and enter a letter from there.
I want to know if I can auto populate the field (W M R) depending on which form opened the add a book form.
I am in the of designing an access 2010 database for data entry. Is it possible to create a button on a form in which a prompt asks a user for which records to export. Then depending on the entry export specific fields (First Name, Last Name, DOB) to a specific excel 2010 workbook (setup) and worksheet (template)?
For example, if the user entry is 1, only record 1: First Name, Last Name, DOB is exported to the setup.xlsx (more specifically the template worksheet of the setup.xlsx). However if 2,3,4 are entered then records,2,3,4: First Name, Last Name, DOB are exported to the setup.xlsx (more specifically the template worksheet of the setup.xlsx).
I'm using a navigation control to switch between forms. In one of those forms, I have a continuous subform which is a list of Projects (source is a query) that is read-only. To edit a project, I can click on its name, which switches the form displayed in the navigation control via docmd.BrowseTo (with acEditForm as the last parameter). This works fine. The proper form opens, with the proper project being displayed.
Now, on this second form, I have on the right the list of tasks contained in the project in a continuous subform (source is a query), and on the left another subform which is kind of an "edit bar" that I use to actually edit the individual tasks. So, when I click on a task in the task list, the OnCurrent event triggers a docmd.BrowseTo command that updates the "edit bar" subform and passes the ID of the task as the WhereCondition parameter. This updates the values displayed in the Edit Bar to that of the selected task, which I can then edit.
Now here's the thing: depending on the project I open, the Edit Bar doesn't work. Actually, it looks like only one of the projects is working, while the others are not (and I managed to have a different project working, but only one works at any given try). When it doesn't work, the Edit Bar is in "NewRecord = True" for some reason. All the other properties of that subform seem to be the same between when it works and when it doesn't.
So, it looks like the same command (docmd.BrowseTo with acEditForm) opens the subform properly in acEditMode when it works, and in something else when it doesn't, depending on the parent record that's being opened. This really gets me, I really can't figure out how that's even possible.
I suspect it might have something to do with locked records, maybe?
