Forms :: Combo Box Selection Controlling Checkbox Availability
Oct 6, 2014
I have a project database where I keep track of the work in progress on monthly bookkeeping for our clients. I have a form where I use a ComboBox to select the client and another ComboBox to select whether a sales tax report must be filed Monthly, Quarterly or Annually. I have 17 CheckBoxes one for every month, quarter and year-end. I want the selection in the sales tax reporting ComboBox to trigger which CheckBoxes are available to check.
That is, if "Monthly" is selected in the ComboBox, then only the 12 monthly CheckBoxes are available to check (the 4 quarterly and 1 year-end CheckBoxes will be disabled). If "Quarterly" is selected in the ComboBox then only the 4 quarterly CheckBoxes are available to check. Of course, "Annual" is the third option. The disabling of CheckBoxes must be on a record by record basis. "Monthly" could be selected for one client (one record) and "Quarterly" for another client (another record).

I am trying to figure out how to control a navigation tab with a checkbox. I have a database for my fire dept and the check box is called "deceased". When a member passes away, the active box gets unchecked and deceased gets checked. Under the member subform, there is a tab, navigationbutton19, that is called deceased also and under this tab all their burial information is stored. What I am trying to do is, if the checkbox is not checked, I want the tab to be enabled = false.

I have a form. In it is a status field that can be:
NEW
SENT
CREDIT
COLLECT
CLOSED
When the item is created, it is given a "NEW" Status. And there is a command button on the form that can change the status to "SENT". However, based on external factors (email received or system report examined) the user can manually change the status to the CREDIT, COLLECT or CLOSED. Now, I want to make sure that then can't change the status manually to "SENT", only the system is allowed to do that via the command button.
How can I allow them to use some of the allowed values, but not others?

I'm trying to build a database for daily work. My work in daily basis I have to fill all condition for several items.
We have two areas, with two locations under each area, and three systems under each location and each system contain more than 500 items.
I created all tables and fill by all information:
1-Table 1: Area 1, Area 2, Area 3, Area 4, Area 5, Area 6.
2-Table 2: Location 1, Location 2.
3-Table 3: System 1, System 2, System 3.
4-Table 4: all items under System 1-1-1
5-Table 4: all items under System 1-1-2
[Code] ....
Last table will be LogBook which will be as follow:
date l time l area l location l system l item l Conition1 l Conition2 l Conition3
My question regarding to the form of the above table:
How can I make a combo box for area field and when I select for example area1 will appear only the locations which under area1 in location field, and when I select location1 for example will appear only the systems under location1 in system field, and when I select system1 one for example will appear only items under system 1.Combo box list will be based on the selection in previous combo box and so on.

I have a reservation form and I want to tick a checkbox that will filter the form based on what is in the "Reservation Status" combo box.When the checkbox is ticked, the code would remove all records that have "Complete" as a status in the "Reservation Status" combo box. The non-working code that I currently have is:
Code:
Private Sub chkHideComplete_AfterUpdate()
On Error Resume Next
If Me.chkHideComplete = True Then
Me.filter = "[ReservationStatus] = 1"
Me.FilterOn = True
[code]....

I am trying to create a database that will record the availability of volunteers for different events.
So far, I have used access to create an availability table, that contains fields for event, date, name, shift 1, shift 2, shift 3.
I now want to create a form that will filter this table for a given event, then layout the form so that names appear down the left, date across the top, and then the shift 1 to 3 fields (which are yes/no fields) to appear in the body of the layout.
This is so the organising team can quickly enter this information (received by phone, email, fax) into the database. I have had a go with subforms within subforms but so far drawing blanks.

Hi,
I'm v.new to Access so do excuse my ignorance.
I have a form with a combo-box with the following values:
Trust, Course, Overseas, GP
When Trusts is selected I'ld like frmtrust_sub to appear.
When anything else is selected I'ld like frmnontrust_sub to appear
Once the data has been entered in the subform the user would continue back to the main form.
I'ld like the subforms to remain hidden until needed, if possible so as not to confuse users.
I’ve copied this piece of code and have tried pasting it into the “after update” event procedure but I get this error message
“the link masterfields property section has produced this error “Ambiguous name detected: Type_afterupdate”
Private Sub Type_AfterUpdate()
Option Compare Database
Sub ShowSubform()
'Save unsaved changes to currently open subform
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, acSaveRecord, , acMenuVer70
'Display appropriate subform based on Type chosen
If Type = "Trust" Then
frmtrust_sub.Visible = True
frmnontrust_sub.Visible = False
ElseIf Type = "GP" Then
frmnontrust_sub.Visible = True
frmtrust_sub.Visible = False
ElseIf Type = "Course" Then
frmnontrust_sub.Visible = True
frmtrust_sub.Visible = False
ElseIf Type = "Overseas" Then
frmnontrust_sub.Visible = True
frmtrust_sub.Visible = False
ElseIf Type = "Other" Then
frmnontrust_sub.Visible = True
frmtrust_sub.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
Private Sub cmdClose_Click()
'Close form
DoCmd.Close
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Current()
'Call subroutine to display appropriate subform based on template type
ShowSubform
End Sub
Private Sub Type_AfterUpdate()
'Call subroutine to display appropriate subform based on template type
ShowSubform
End Sub
Any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks
Barry

Access 2007
Inside main form f_order
I have a subform f_filter_nycklar
with only one column [Serie nr].
A list of unique serial numbers.
10001B
10002B
10003B
... to
99999B
The subform is based on q_filter_nycklar which in turn is based on tbl_filter_nycklar
I have two unbound combo boxes both based on tbl_filter_nycklar. I want chose starting number [ex 14001B], and end number (ex 14050B) and the subform to filter all numbers from first to last based on that selection.
I later want to copy this selection and past append into another subform on the same main form.
I have tried to set condition in q_filter_nycklar
>=[Forms]![f_filter_nycklar]![F] Or <=[Forms]![f_filter_nycklar]![T]
It does not work
-With condition blank the combo boxes list all available numbers and the subform continuously lists all numbers
-With condition the combo boxes list all available numbers but subform is blank no matter what I chose in the combo boxes (including leaving blank)...

I am having a problem entering the 2nd column of a combo box.This is a lookup combo looking at a table called Accessories. The combo is looking up 4 columns in the table, the first column is called "Action" the 2nd column is called "Item". I click on the combo box in the form and decide on the action I want and click that row, it then enters the action I have clicked. But it is the "Item" column I want to enter on the form not the "Action" column.
This only works if I make "Item" the first column which I do not want to do. I want to keep the combo columns in the order they are but enter the 2nd column not the first. I have tried making the bound column the 2nd column but it still enters the 1st column. I am sure access must be capable of doing this but I cannot work out how. It seems you can only enter whatever is in the 1st column.

Basic premise:
I'd like to list all records in a table accompanied by a checkmark. If the checkmark is checked then this record will be edited (saved to a 'list' for editing). If not checked, then the record will not be edited (not saved to a list).
What I've done thus far:
I have a table with all the fields in it (pulled from a master table) and the checkmark associated with each record on a datasheet form. That works..I can select each record using the checkmark and use mod code to check if the checkmark is true or false.
But what I would like to allow is:
Filtering on a field and allow the checkmarks to be selected individually as well as a 'Select All' button. Thus, when the form is first opened - all records appear. The user then 'filters' for all Telephone Number field starting with area code '222'. With that new set of records, the user can then select each record individually by checking the checkmark box and select all records by clicking the 'Select All' button.
As an example: Lets say a company with telephone number 222-xxx-xxxx recently moved to a new area code. Instead of changing each record individually - I'd like to list them, filter them down to '222', then perform a 'global change' to all records.
Hope that makes sense,
Thanks,
Charles

I'm trying to create an access database to make an inventory of my model trains.
I have a main entry form (frmTrain) where I enter all sorts of info regarding e.g. a locomotive. This info is then stored in a table (tblTrain).
In the main entry form, I've put a combo box (cmbCountries) linked to a query (qryCountries) which queries the country codes from a table (tblCountries) that has three fields:
ID (autonumber)
CountryCode (short text) (containing the country codes UK, FR, DE, ...)
FlagFile (short text) (containing the name of the flag picture, e.g. UK.png)
The flags are stored as *.png files in a folder Flags that is in the same folder as the database file. I have chosen this approach instead of putting the flag pictures in an OLE field in tblCountries because I'd like to avoid being stuck to *.bmp files (don't support transparency). I'd also like to avoid having to mention the complete file path in the field FlagFile
I created a form (frmCountries) to easily add countries to tblCountries as needed.
Now back to the main entry form. The selection made in cmbCountries is stored in the field 'Countries' in tblTrain. When a country is selected in cmbCountries, I'd like that the corresponding flag is displayed next to the combo box.
I found an example on the web where an image field was used to display the flag, let's say with the following code:
Private Sub cmbCountries_Change()
Me.ImageFieldName.Picture = Me.cmbCountries.Column(2)
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.ImageFieldName.Picture = Me.cmbCountries.Column(2)
End Sub
and where the combo box had as row source (not using qryCountries):
SELECT tblCountries.ID, tblCountries.CountryCode, [Application].[CurrentProject].[path] & "Flags" & [FlagFile] AS Expr1 FROM tblCountries ORDER BY tblCountries.[Code];
The problem with this example is that, if you select in frmTrain e.g. UK, the UK flag is then displayed across all records in frmTrain. So the image field is not the appropriate field to display the flag in frmTrain and I guess an unbound/bound (?) object frame should rather be used.
How to display correctly the flag picture for every individual record in frmTrain corresponding to the country chosen in cmbCountries.

I have a form that contains a form (Contain business data) and a then a sub form that hold the companies history of donations. BUT I also have another forms that hold miscellaneous data that I would like to look at also in the sub form area.
I want to select the sub form by a combo box to show the "sub forms"I want to look at by selecting a menu from a combo box.
I have worked with Access for years but some reason the combo box has always been difficult for me to completely understand.

There are 2 issues I am trying to figure out for an Access2007 form:
1) I should first state that I am working off of 3 tables:
a) Marketers
b) Companies that belong to those marketers
c) Points of Contacts (POC) for each Company
2) In my frmMain, I have 2 combo boxes. The first loads the second and the second loads a CompanyID text field (IDc) that the subform bases for which record info to pull. How do I get the CompanyID (and subform) fields to load blank upon form open and until the 2nd combo box selection is made?
3) A company that doesn't have any POCs entered yet won't load its CompanyID even though it DOES have an ID number. Well the Id not being changed doesn't change the POC info either. I am guessing it's because there is no info to fill in the subform yet. However, I need to be able to still pull up the blank fields so I can ADD a POC.

I am trying to auto populate the text boxes in the form based on drop down from the combo box. As you can see in the form Frm_Input, this works fine for FL, but for some reason it will not populate for Skill, Role, FLM and Location. The table it is linking to is Tbl_Names. Why as I have changed the column source?

I am a novice to Access and in order to get some training in my workplace I need to show how access can be applied to my role.
I have a table of information consisting of 3 fields:
Motor manufacturer
Model
Attachment (picture of particular car)
I want to have someone able to select the manufacturer and Model from Combo boxes and this will pull up the image associated with this model.
There are more than 1 model for each Motor manufacturer so you may have:
manufacturer Model
Ford Fiesta
Ford Mondeo
VW Beetle
VW Golf
Fiat 500
You must not be able to select the wrong model for manufacturer, i.e.
Ford 500
The images are currently saved onto the table as an attachment,
This may be wrong as well,
This may be a simple task to do, but hopefully I can get it running smoothly and show this is the right tool for the job.

I'm building a test registration form, and I want to populate 2 additional fields based on the TestID ComboBox selection. This same TestID table has a Requirement and Expected result field, that I want to display for the end user, to make sense of the test in question. Multiple fields in the ComboBox does not work since you cannot select a single testID; you can click on the relevant testID, but the table remains in view, rather than displaying only the relevant testID.

I am having issues with my combo box populating values based on the selection from another combo box.
Database : contains 2 tables: Staff_List, Level_Type and a form called frm_Test
The first combobox cboLevel gets its value from the Level_Type table with the select statement SELECT [Level_Type].[ID], [Level_Type].[Level_Type] FROM level_Type;
The values to be displayed on the second combobox cbo_Name is expected to be dependent on the Level selection made from the first combobox i.e if Level 1 is selected in cboLevel then only Names of people in Level 1 will be displayed in second combobox.
The select statement I put there is SELECT Staff_List.ID, Staff_List.Staff_Name
FROM Staff_List
WHERE ((([Staff_List]![Level])=[Forms]![frm_test]![cboLevel]));
This is not displaying anything in the second combobox after I tried it in the Form view, just empty.

I have a form that I populate after making selections in two combo boxes but when I load the form the text boxes are already filled in with the first record. The combo boxes load blank, which is what I want.
How do I get the rest of the form to be blank on load? It is made up of text boxes and check boxes that are all bound. Will this only work if they are unbound?
