I have a basic form that includes check boxes. All works well. But on my (Windows 8) machine, the check boxes display as big ugly black squares. If I open the db from any another machine (Windows 7), check boxes display as I'm used to with a nice outline and bluey tinge to the middle if not set! All machines have Access 2013 on them.
View RepliesI 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'm unsure of the best approach for this. I have 4 check boxes to verify. Only 1 of them can be checked, the others need to be disabled. But the user must check one of them.
their control sources are:
admn
sprvsr

I have a form that has three checkboxes (IDDocument, DrivingLicence and Certification) on it. What the form is looking to do is based on the selection it will open a scanned document of the requested documents. There are 5 permutations that could be selected (either first on only, second one only, third one only, first and second and first and third). How do I code the IF Statement this so that the system will look at the different options and then do certain things accordingly.The code I have at the moment is:
Public Sub ProcessRequest_Click()
Dim Form1 As String
Dim Form2 As String
Path = "Staff" & Me!EmployeeName & ""
If Me!IDDocument = True And Me!DrivingLicence = False And Me!Certification = False Then
Do one thing
ElseIf Me!IDDocument = False And Me!DrivingLicence = True And Me!Certification = False Then
Do a second thing
ElseIf Me!IDDocument = False And Me!DrivingLicence = False And Me!Certification = True Then
Do a thrid thing
ElseIf Me!IDDocument = True And Me!DrivingLicence = True And Me!Certification = False Then
Do a forth thing
ElseIf Me!IDDocument = True And Me!DrivingLicence = False And Me!Certification = True Then
Do a final thing
End If
End Sub
All the bits work (the form stuff) but my IF statements are not working. It seems that access is seeing the checkboxes as null and so the IF is not working when i check box 1 and leave the other two unchecked.
I need to make a form that lists 120 checkboxes and then adds an associated value to get a total.I have a table with Description field (i.e. aspirin) and a Points field (i.e.2). I need to make a subform that shows 120 checkboxes and when the user checks the boxes the associated points are totaled.
I have tried using a default value for each checkbox which works except I can't get the subform to add a new record when I move to the next mainform record.how to make a form where I can see all 120 items and give the use a choice to check 1 or all of them and get a total?
I have a form named Member, this form has field named hobbies, this field has multiple values selection i.e. a user could select football, cricket, listening to music and etc. these values are stored in another table and i have looked up the values in my form named member, i know access has multiple value option in combo box while we look up values from another table, but i don't want that the check boxes appear in combo box, they should be listed right in form so that i can see them without going inside the combo box and at the same time the values of these populated check boxes should be stored in a single field.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a form to enter archaeological features in a feature table. Each feature is present in one or more archaeological strata, for which I have a stratum table. There are 41 strata in total named 1A, 1B, 2A etc. On the form I want a checkbox for each of these and then to make it add a record to the stratum table for each of the selected strata. The stratum table and feature table are connected by the feature_primary_ID (key in feature table), so when making a new record I need this primary ID and the respective strata to be entered in the fields.
At the moment I've got something like this:
Code:
Private Sub Check1_Click()
If Check1.Value = True Then
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO tbl_FEAT_STRAT (feature_primary_ID, stratum_ID) VALUES ((feature_primary_ID of present record),Label2.Caption)"
Else
DoCmd.RunSQL "DELETE FROM tbl_FEAT_STRAT WHERE feature_primary_ID = (feature_primary_ID of present record)"
End If
End Sub
For starters, I dont know how to get the feature_primary_ID from the features table (also represented in the form as a field) and use it to make a new record in the strata table.
Second, when using this code I need a copy for each of the 41 strata checkboxes. Creating lots of redundant code. Easier would be a generic code that loops through all the checkboxes after they've been checked and then add new records for each of the checked boxes. Tried something with a command button, but couldn't get it to work.
Is there a way to display/hide the information on a subform using a checkbox?So, when the checkbox is checked, the fields are blank but when the checkbox is unchecked, the information displays?

Attached I have a database that I've been working on which has a form called "frmCriteriaSearch". It is based off of the qryCriteriaListBoxUpdate query. I am trying to get the listbox in the second tab of the results section to work. It queries fine for the checkboxes, but I cannot get the comboboxes to affect the query (unless a checkbox has already been selected)
View 6 Replies View Relatedwhy access 2007 is displaying an image oddly on a 2003/2008 terminal server farm. I am reasonably sure the problem is an access on terminal server issue because if you view the image in paint, image viewer, or word it displays fine on the terminal server. I don't think it is a resolution or color issue because once again it displays fine in paint, etc regardless of color depth.
The image below shows the difference in the png graphic. The image is transparent (the blue section being the background)

As you can see the terminal server image is pixelated.

Including check boxes (representing the query fields) in an interactive access form, in order to decide which fields should be visible.
I think the solution is building an invent in VBA for each check box, however I'm not an expert in Access VBA and don't know how to write the code.
In the example that I've uploaded, in the Form1, when I run the query, all fields are displayed, i.e. VENDOR, REGION, CUSTOMER and MATERIAL are displayed. How can I manage it in the form with a listbox to display only the REGION or MATERIAL for instance.
I have strange issue when creating auto populated text boxes which displays rows from combo boxes.
In one database auto populates works with simple text box Control Source edit "=[ComboName].[Column](NumberOfColumn)".
Somehow same method doesn't wotk in different database: here one time I have to insert VBA code at On change Event:
Me.TextBoxName = Me.ComboName.Column(NumberOfColumn)
And other time it wont work with On change but only with After Update Event (code is same).
Another thing this morning happens was that when I tried to add new record trough form where combo box and tex boxes are located, MS Office suddenly stopped working after selecting combo box selection (with message Microsoft Office has Stopped Working). It is 2013 version.
I got it work after deleting and re-inserting VBA code to autopopulate text box at After Update Event.
Hi,
I added some new controls into existing form. I made sure I added those new control names to Table source as well. For some reason, I dont get the values either in the form or in table. Please help. Thanks.
By the way, how can I attach an attachment in this forum. This if first time for me in this forum.
I have a form with a check box among other itmes. What I want to happen is, when the user checks the check box, I want the text box to the right of it to be made visible and to let the user write text. But I only want this text box to be visible when the check box is checked. The check box is if the user wish to put a comment in the form, he will click the check box and then I want my text box to appear so that he may write the comment in the text box. Please help with this. Thanks

Hi
In my tables I have set a field to Yes/No and the format to be True/False.
When I activate the table it shows the field as a checkbox, however when I create a List Box on a form to that table it displays the fields as True/False, how can I get the list box to also display the field as a checkbox.

I want to sum together the number of check boxes checked. The problem is that Sum gives a negative number. What shuold I do?
View 2 Replies View RelatedThis seems like an easy question.
I created a check box on a form. The problem is once the box is checked, it cannot be unchecked. Seems like there should be some validation running in the background that checks the state of the check box.
I have the value of the check box to equal 1.
If the field is null, then clicking on the check box assigns the value and turns on the check mark.
If the field is already 1, then clicking on the check box deletes the value and unchecks the box.
Can someone provide me with the vba code that makes the check box operate correctly? I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Jeff
Is there a way to make sure that one of two box is checked. And if one is checked the other could not be. For example. If I have a check box called Father and one called mother. If father was checked Mother could not be checked, and visversa.
Thank You

If a check box is true/checked, how do I make it invisible on a report?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have 4 check boxes represent 4 grade levels. When I click on a grade I have a query run for me a list of all 9th graders or 10th graders or both together.
When I run the form for the first time, all four boxes are check, when I unclick all of them and I click which ones I want the form does not work. But if I leave them click the report will work. Basically what is happening is when I unclick them, the lose their value.
I have the check box set up with a Default Value as "09" or "10" base on what Grade Level there is.
So my two questions are, how do I keep the value of the check boxes after I unclick and click again and Secondly, is there a way to have the boxes unchecked when I run the program?
I have a column which are check boxes to indicate whether plants are available for sale or not. The problem is how do i put code or symbol in to check all boxes or to uncheck all boxes.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to shutdown an particular db when multiple users are logged on from my pc?

Or at least be able to send them a friendly message from within access to ask them to get out?
I have a table that contains the following fields:
township
male - yes/no
female - yes/no
number of kids
I need to create a query that will give me the count of males and females and sum of number of kids - all grouped by township.
I have created 3 separate queries that calculate each part and they work. My question is how do I display the results of all these queries in one report, all grouped by townships?
Or if there's a way to create one query that will add all of this up? when I tried to create one query, the check boxes were not calculated properly, because Access did not distinguish between filled and empty checkboxes and would just count them all...
Any ideas or suggestions would be really appreciated.
