Forms :: Combo Box Selecting Beyond Displayed List
Sep 11, 2013
I have a working combo box on a form that displays issue numbers for part number typed into a text box.This all works fine when the list of issue numbers is below the displayed list (16), but when the list is longer than 16 you cannot seem to select anything after item 16.
When the combo box has, say 25 items a scroll bar appears allowing the user to scroll down to item 25, but when you click the mouse the list just reverts back to the first 16 items? The only way to select an item after 16 is to select item 16 which then closes the combo box, then when you reopen it the list now shows items 17 to 25 which you can then select item 25.
This is the same in reverse, when you have item 25 selected, you cannot select item 1. When you click the mouse the list reverts back to items 17 - 25.The combo box is populated in code using the lost focus event on the text box for the part number.

I'm trying to create some VBA that will loop through my listbox, de-select all of the items, and then return to the top of the list without selecting the first item. Below is the code I am using based on what i was able to find through google, but the top item still remains selected.
Code:
With Me.AvailableAttendees
For SelRow = 0 To .ListCount - 1
.Selected(SelRow) = False
Next SelRow
End With
Me.AvailableAttendees.SetFocus
Me.AvailableAttendees.ListIndex = 0

I am currently designing an employee personal development and training database.I have 100 employees and the number that would go on a training course might be a handful so selecting four or five names in a subform list from a 100 seems a bit impractical.
I thought of selecting the course in a form from a combo box, selecting the employees using a tickbox in a subform and then running an append query.

In Access 2013, I would like to be able to choose more than one value from a combo box, but I believe this is not possible. However, I can prepare a list box and set the Multi Select to Extended. Doing this, I can indeed select more than one value, but I don't know how to get those values into a text field in the form. (If poss, they would become comma separated in that field). Ideally, the code would call the list box because it would take up too much space if it were there all of the time.

I am relearning Access and having a little difficulty. I am creating a Access database that links tables from an I series system which I have done trouble free. In the database I have pulled up for example a patient demographic file (hospital). I have form frmSearch that prompts the user to enter the medical record number OR they can search by name. I have a query that takes that information then loads a 2nd form to display the query results in a list box. I would like to be able to click on one of the results from the 2nd form to then load another form that will display all of the patient information that was selected.How do you set this up so that with the results shown, I can click on one of them and it will load that patient into another form pulling the rest of his or her information from the table file?

I have a form where I have two drop down list box.The first list box is called Transaction_Type. It contains three values: Created, Allocated and Sold
The second list box is called Product_Status. It contains 6 items: Allocated, Produced, Reworked, Shipped, To Be Produced, Unallocated.
I have a products form. When a user created more inventory they will selected in the drop down list create, then a quantity. Then I would like the status of the product to update to "Unallocated".
When the user placed an order but doesn't finish it they will choose the status of the inventory to be allocated so I would like the product status to be updated to allocated automatically.
They other status the user will choose them self and do not need to be linked to each other.
In my vba code I have tried with the OnClick and AfterUpdate sub procedures with the following code.
If Me.Transaction_Type.Value = "Created" Then
Me.Product_Status.Value = "Unallocated"
End If
If Me.Transaction_Type.Value = "Allocated" Then
Me.Product_Status.Value = "Allocated"
End If
Yes when i select "created" from the drop down list it does not change product_status to say "unallocated"
(in using access 2007)

I have a form to modify existing property records. Each record has a PIN number and a unique ID which is a combination of year, state county and PIN. The same property can have a record for more than one year. On this form I have a combo box for selecting the record to be modified. The combo box includes PIN and Prop ID. The combo displays each record by PIN then ID as separate records. For example:
PIN Prop ID
06104409012 2007-IL-Lake-06104409012
06104409012 2010-IL-Lake-06104409012
But when I select a record it will always select the first record with identical PINs. In the case above if I click the 2010 ID the record fills in with the 2007 ID.

I am trying to use a combo box to control which table a data entry form will write data to. I want to create a form that has a combo box to select from a top level table that I will call "Stores". Once a "Store" is selected from the drop down, the next field on the form will be a data entry field. The data entered in that field will be written to the table selected by the preceding combo box.
So, basically I would have say Wal-Mart, Macy's, Sears, K-Mart and etc, listed in my "Stores" table. Once I select one of the stores from the drop down, I would then enter a "department" name in the data entry field and based on which store I selected from the previous combo box, the data would be written to that stores department table (which each store will have its own department table), e.g., WalMartDepts, MacyDepts, SearsDepts, etc...

I have a form with a subform that has started a strange behavior... Periodically (no apparent pattern) whenever I leave the form (go to next record, print report, send an email...) the field list (Add Existing Field) box pops up. I always thought that those boxes (property sheet included) displayed or were hidden based on the state the last time it was used in Design View. I have confirmed that all forms and subforms do not have the boxes in display state in Design View.
I can go into Design View, close the box and all is well for awhile. It seems to happen more frequently when I go to print a report based on the data on the current form. My question is - what causes the Field List or Property Sheet to toggle on/off and can I suppress it either on a form or in the VBA code?

Hi,
I am trying to choose an entry from a COmbo Box which ahas a Lookuop underlying in it. I then want to display the additonal four entries in the form it self. The data is already created and displayed in a query. The primary key gets displayed but thte other data cannot be displayed. Is there any way I can display the other details eg: Firstname, Surname Age in the same form but under different fieldnames. I am not sure how to do this.
I could retype it all in but that is uneconomical. Any ideas? Please help.
Thanks.

I am trying to avoid to use a Combo Box & a List Box because of the way the records are stored in the table, I only need to verify that the user does not enter a 3 letter code that is not contained in a specific table (I have a table of countries with the 3 letter code example if the user types ESC instead of ESP an error appears) Is it possible to use the after update to verify the contents against a table?

I have a combo box on a form which has a row source type of Value List in which I've manually typed in 2 entries: Owned, Leased.
I have a query which filters on the results of the combobox, and works fine for when I select either option Owned or Leased.
Is there an easy way to filter all (both Owned & Leased)? I've tried leaving the combobox blank, and tried entering a * in the value list, but they both return no results.
Code:
SELECT Assets.*
FROM Assets
WHERE (((Assets.Possession)=[Forms]![Home]![Combo56]));

I am using a sequence of combo boxes on a 'Continuous' form.
To reduce the possibility of error I am using a 'Value List' combo box where I use AddItem method to add the previously entered string to the combo control so that it is there for use when entering the next record.
This works fine - but what I want to ask is - how to have a routine to check that the string does not already exist in the combo box before I AddItem i.e., I don't want duplicated values in the list.....

I have a list box and a combo box on a form based on a query. The list box is a multi-select, with column values of Client, ClientEmail, and Medical.
Medical is a simple yes/no field, and it is what I want the combo box to sort by. I have a Where clause in the query: WHERE (Medical=[forms]![frmOne]![cmbbx]), and the only values in the combo box are Yes and No (1 column). I also have the combo box set to run a requery macro after updating. I've also tried to change the macro to VBA:
Code:
DoCmd.Requery "lstbx"
When I pick a string from the combo box, the list box just goes blank, rather than updating to clients who either do or don't have Medical, and I can't understand why.
