So you make this nice continuous form (or report) using the tabular layout, layout/format the whole enchilada... and then at some stage you need to add one more field to the display.
You could change the layout to stacked, drag the field from the Add Existing Fields list onto the layout and then change the layout back to tabular.
Is there any other smart way to add a field to a tabular layout in A2007, so that the label winds up in the header section and the textbox (or other control) in the detail section?
I am trying to create a form that has a tabular main form and a tabular subform. All I can do is to create a main form that just shows a singular record (columnar). I want to be able to see say 10 records in the main form and 10 records in the subform. How do I do this?
I have two tables (Access 2010). One with a list of names (List1) and another with a very similar list of names (List2), but they differ in very small ways. For example, List1 might have John Smith, and List2 would have Smith, John L.; and Smith, John. List2 also has a unique ID associated with these names that I need to append to List1.
I need to design a form that will allow me to look up names in List1, and have it return all names that are similar in List2. I then need to be able to choose with record in List2 matches with the List1 entry (based on a few other columns in List2, such as birth date) and have the form add that unique ID to the List1 record.
The recordsource is a query with over 6,000 records. The form currently lists the records in datasheet format with header and footer for things like buttons and filtering. The client wants to be able to go from page to page of the souce query, showing 100 records on the form at a time.
But at the same time, they should be able to filter or sort the data source in it's entirety. The person who created the form came up with what seems like an awful solution to the problem. It seems to use a random number generator to determine how many records to portray at a time. I see this in the code as well as in operation, because the number of records on page to page varies. It doesn't even start out at 100! Worse yet, using a sort on the page only sorts the records that are visible.
i have a form the control source of form is getting information from table and the type of form is tabular i want when the user input for example 10 person into form when click in the button all the record stored from another table , how to do it ?
I have a tabular form which i use to input new payments for tenants.
What i'd like to be able to do, is have another form, with a combo box that i can chose my tenant from, then for a tabular form to show only the payments made for that tenant, sorted in date order.
I have a login form. 2 spots for users to input and ID and their name. I want to do error checking to see the user inputs a wrong name or wrong id with their corresponding name or ID. For example, I don't want User A to be able to login with User B's name. If User A inputs their ID and inputs User B's name, I want to show an error message stating the their is a mismatch of credentials. Here is my code
Private Sub Command12_Click() Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim txtID As Variant txtID = Forms![LoginForm2]![txtEmployeeID] txtName = Forms![LoginForm2]![Text13] Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT * FROM CoachTable WHERE EmployeeID = '" & txtID & "'", dbOpenDynaset)
I have a form called frmStartTimeEntry where a user inputs data using a barcode scanner. In this form there is a field called Part_No where after a value is inserted, I'd like the form to check if table_lines_per_part includes this part. If not found, then I'd like the form to open another form called frmLinesPerPart where the form would pull the same Part_No inserted in the previous form to fill in the Part_No field (which is hidden) and then the user would type in a qty for the LinesPerOrder. A user would then click a button btnOk to append this new record to table_lines_per_part and be returned to the frmStartTimeEntry to continue filling out the rest of the form.
This is the idea I have but I don't know how to code the part where the form checks after update if the part_no exists in the other table, nor how to capture the part_no to the other form and then append both the part_no and the lines per part to the other table.
I seem to be having an issue with a split form I've been working on. I created this split form on Monday and it was working just fine but today, I have added a couple minor text boxes. Since then, I can view the form contents in Design View but when I switch to "Form View" or "Layout View", it's all gone minus the logo in the top left corner and the title for the split form.
I have a bound form which shows list of items in the stock. When i click on a button it should open another form which shows the details of item which we choose from the first form.the code which i have in click event of the form is :
Code: Dim strCrit As String strCrit = "PkID=" & Me.RadStocks DoCmd.OpenForm "frmIssueRadItems", , , strCrit
It works sometimes but most of the time it gives error saying " syntax error(missing operator) in query expression 'PkID=Airmux 200E DC".
I am making a Car Rental database on Access 2010, and I have a list of the dates available to rent a car in a table. I want to be able to check what dates are available and select a date for hire in a form.
My form was working fine but when I added an extra tab it started showing as completely blank in design view. When I deleted the tab I had added I still was left with the same problem!
I've attached an image of the form properties. I want to use the form to enter data so it needs to show even if there are no records.
I had read that it could be if there is no data but typing data in the tables hasn't worked either.
I have created a form with combo box which shows certain fields I selected. By clicking that I want to open a NEW form which has all the fields so that I can edit the record.
I have created a tabular style DAP using the page wizard before. I used to have the option, but now I only seem to have columnar style. Is there an option I have to select somewhere?
Kinda stuck at deciding what I should do here.. What would be the best way to prevent a user from entering data into a tabular form without making sure a certain member exists first?
for example if I have a columnar form
BOXA BOXB (invisible or disabled by default)
1 of 2
I can have it check to see if BOXA has data if it DOES i can make BOXB available for data entry
but lets say I have a tabular form....
BOXA BOXB BOXA BOXB
1 of 2
How can I make it so that BOXB will not accept data entry UNLESS its corresponding BOXA has data in it already?...
A:[asldkfjaskd] B:[AVAILABLE FOR EDIT] A:[] B:[NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL MEMBER IS CREATED]
It needs to be in tabular form too.. sigh.. anyway.. thanks for any help you might be able to provide
I'm trying to create a form like the Employee form in Northwind Database, but I'm clueless, I'm getting the different tabs, but when I move from the first page to the second page the fields on the first page is showing on the second and third pages.
Any help is appreciated.
Many thanks.
PS: I created a form & then draw a tab page(from toolbox menu) on the same form & try to move the fields onto the tab pages.
In my database main form with subform. subform have query as recordsource.total of one of field in subform shown on main form. all is ok and show total correctly but when subform have no records then total field on main form shows #error.

I'm curious if anyone know's a way to access a specific data section on a tabular form. I'm attempting to have each section update a specific data item based on its position on the form, but am having problems since I do not know how to differentiate between one details section and another on the form. Any help would be appreciated.
There are two tabs named Table1 and Table2. In actual there are two tables in Access database named Table1 and Table2. How the data is stored in ACcess tables, I have made two tabs in excel workbook. Now I want Access VBA code that will check if data in Reference field of Table1 matches with any of the data in Reference field of Table2.
If it matches then change the status of the corresponding record of Table2 with either "Withdrawn","Obsolete" or "Updated". SO it depends upon which field out of "WIthdrawn","Obsolete" and "Updated" in Table1 stores "Y". At a time only one of them will have "Y" and rest of two fields will have "N" as shown in the sheets.
As in the example, now Reference "R566" of Table1 matches with Table2 Reference so the status field in Table2 for that record will be "WithDrawn".
Hello all - Working on a form that is supposed to display order approval information. In the database I'm working with, people are stored as in the approvals table by a reference to an autonumbered value. However, I want to display their name, which can be obtained normally through an SQL or DLookUp Command. This tabular form style though is giving me a problem. If I put new textboxes on the form and load it as I normally would, like:
*ApprovalID is a hidden textbox that stores the number that is used to represent a particular user.
The problem becomes that using an OnLoad or and OnCurrent Form function, the boxes only load one value. I want them to load the different values for the different entries, but I am lost as to how to do this. Any help would be appreciated.
A similar issue that I've been having with reports is that I don't know how I would do this at all... I want to do the same thing (retrieve the Name or whatever that is related to a numerical value) and put it on the report. I'd appreciate any info on how to do this.
Is it possible to have an unbound image control on a tabular form displaying a different image for each record ?
Actually i have tried putting some code on the onCurrent event, but it is displaying the same image in all records, depending on which record is current.
This is the code which i tried using:
Private Sub Form_Current() On Error GoTo Err_Form_Current If Not IsNull(Me.txtCountry) And Not IsNull(Me.txtCatalogueNumber) Then Me.Stamp.Picture = Environ("userprofile") & "My DocumentsDatabasesPhilatelyStamps" & Me.txtCountry & Me.txtCatalogueNumber & ".jpg" ElseIf IsNull(Me.txtCountry) Or IsNull(Me.txtCatalogueNumber) Then Me.Stamp.Picture = Environ("userprofile") & "My DocumentsDatabasesPhilatelyStampsNotAvailable. jpg" End If Exit_Err_Form_Current: Exit Sub Err_Form_Current: If Err.Number = 2220 Then Me.Stamp.Picture = Environ("userprofile") & "My DocumentsDatabasesPhilatelyStampsNotAvailable. jpg" Else MsgBox Err.Description, vbExclamation, "Error #" & Err.Number End If End Sub
Actually, the above code works fine for Single Form, but not on tabular form.
