For some reason unknown to me, although the combobox does drop down when entered, the values are not visible until selected, then the selected item is visible in the combobox, but still isn't visible in the drop-down list.
I have a form for data entry that have multiple comboboxes. I am trying to get one combobox to base its "list" on an entry from a previous combobox. The first combobox is based on a QuantityType table and has four options.
The next combobox is based on a ProductDesign table and will have close to fifty options. I want to limit the ProductDesign combobox based on the QuantityType selection which will give the QuantityTypeID. This will refer to the QuantityTypeID linked to the ProductDesign table.I have created a query that looks like this:
SELECT Product_Design.Product FROM Product_Design, Quantity_Type WHERE Product_Design.QuantityTypeID = Quantity_Type.QuantityTypeID AND Quantity_Type.QuantityType = [Forms]![Product]![Qty_Type];
This Query works and if I simply run the query I get the needed information from it.What I would like to do with this query is to populate the ProductDesign combobox with this data.I have tried putting the query in the RowSource field but I get an empty combobox without the data. The strange this is that the combobox must be getting something from the query because the length of the combo box varies based on my QuantityType selection. I.E. if I select "Single" in the QuantityType, the ProductDesign dropdown shows three empty places for data whereas if I select "Multiple" in the QuantityType I see that there is ten empty places for data.getting the combo box to actually show each option?
i have done a search.. and found a post which half answered my problems..
I have a Table with some columns which contain Yes/No check boxes as field types.
I have a form with two unbound combo's with their rowsource property set to a Value List "0";"-1"
When I run my form I get 0 and -1 as options in the combos..how would i get Yes or No as options. (i have changed the Value List to "Yes";"No" but the query gives me an error. I also tried to set the rowsource to SELECT Distinct Car from Pupils; and this 'does' work but i dont get the ALL column. I have also tried SELECT Car from Pupils UNION SELECT "" from Pupils;
This gives me the ALL at the top..but 0 and -1 as values to choose from..
I understand that Access stores values in checkboxes as 0 and -1
so to recap..
I want to click on the dropdown combo and have a blank 1st entry.. then entry 2 and 3 will be Yes and No ..not 0 and -1
I have 7 fields in a listbox (1st is the ID, hidden) from the single table. 3 of these fields are foreign keys. How do I get them to display their related values instead of the foreign key value?
Background:I'm purpose-building my db to essentially track individually cataloged items, somewhat like a library system would. I have four main tables: tblMediaItems, tblUsers, tblTransactions, and tblLocations. Users wills be spending 90% of their time on the Details form for the particular media item record they're viewing.
I'm trying to show an item's transaction history on the main form. I added a listbox (because I liked that compact presentation style) and got the desired fields to show up from tblTransactions. I figured out how to accomplish this for a single column combo box with the wizard, but so far I don't see how I would do this with multiple fields in a listbox.
I have a form with a combobox and a treeview. When I select an item in the combobox, the treeview is updated with info related to the combobox value. When I browse through the nodes in the treeview, I want to see which other values will give that very same node. I could use the concatenation function* I found at Allen Browne's site, which will return a number of values in a single string.
What I'm looking for, is basically some sort of tag cloud. If the user selects node X, the tag cloud needs to show which values in the combobox will all lead to node X. The combobox values that lead to node Y shouldn't be visible at all in the tag cloud, or maybe just shown in a different color. The user should be able to click on the value, which will trigger the combobox_click event.
how many values there will be in the table behind the combobox. That's what's making this problem difficult to solve. Putting the form in design view, adding a textbox and returning to form view is not an option. How do I create a dynamic tag cloud? Is it possible to transpose a table column on a form?
how I can set multiple default values in a ComboBox in a form. The ComboBox is based on a table and my main table also uses the ComboBox.
Example:
Main table has a column "Brands". The ComboBox is based on another table which includes the following items (and thus the ComboBox also shows them):
- CocaCola - Fanta - Sprite
The form has the same ComboBox which is linked to the main table.
Now, if a user creates a new form entry, all ComboBox items should be preselected (checked). It does work with one item over the standard "Default" property.
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 where the user will choose a contact name or names from a multivalue combobox and I want the email address field to update with the corresponding emails separated by "; ".
I have a form in which I have a combobox. The code in the row source is:
Code: SELECT [tblBooks].AuthorFirst & " " & [tblBooks].AuthorLast AS Expr1 FROM tblBooks GROUP BY tblBooks.AuthorLast, tblBooks.AuthorFirst HAVING (((tblBooks.AuthorFirst & " " & tblBooks.AuthorLast)<>"") And ((Count(*))>1)) ORDER BY tblBooks.AuthorLast, tblBooks.AuthorFirst;
This is an unbound box.
The rest of the form contains bound textboxes and other bound comboboxes.
This form is processed by the following VBA code:
Code: Private Sub cmdAddBook_Click() 'Place the authors first and last name in an array splitAuthor = Split(cboAuthor.Value, " ") 'Create a new record with the form information DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
[Code] ....
What happens is that it places all the records (Except those in the array) in a field and overwrites the values in that field.
I have used the same GoToRecord statement on other databases and it works just fine. I suspect that it is due to the unbound combobox.
What I need to find a way to place all the data in the corresponding fields of a new record including separating the author's first and last name when retrieved from the combobox. I just need to figure out how to get the data in the table somehow.
In a form used to record a sale for a company we have a dropdown box with the contact names for that company and when one is selected it populates other boxes like phone number etc however the combobox brings up all possible contacts but when some of them are selected all the boxes return blank, including the combobox, whereas most of the contacts work fine.
The SQL used for the combobox is as follows..
Code: SELECT tbl_Contacts.ContactTelephone, tbl_Contacts.ContactMobile, tbl_Contacts.ContactEmail, tbl_Contacts.ID_Contact, tbl_Contacts.ID_Company, tbl_Contacts.Salutation & " " & tbl_Contacts.ContactForename & " " & tbl_Contacts.ContactSurname AS MainContact FROM tbl_Contacts WHERE (((tbl_Contacts.ID_Company)=[tbl_CompanyBookings].[ID_Company])) ORDER BY tbl_Contacts.ContactForename;
I have a data base with names, email IDs, phone numbers of 5 types(example quality, security, IT,finance etc) of person from ten different project teams. I created a basic form for the end user to enter values and created fields for each of the person's name, email ID etc based on the personal type( liek quality, IT, finance etc) on each team. The background table contains records of almost 200 people now.
All of these people will be trained for one task and some will be trained for multiple tasks. I know how to make the combo box allow multiple values/selections but, i cannot list out all 200 personal names in the combobox's rowsource/value list. Is it possible to combine all different name fields and list out all personal(of one team), so that the end user can just select multiple names for that team who have been trained and so on. i need to set the rowsource of the combobox to the values of all personal from one team so the team leader can just go select who has been trained and who has not.
I have an issue with a couple of my combo boxes. When in form mode the drop down menu displays a list of options (taken from my source table), this is fine, but the problem is that it allows the user to select more than one of the options in the form of checkboxes. This is not what I intended.
I've attached to pictures to demonstrate the problem. The first is ComboBoxQuery (the one with the problem) and the second is ComboBoxQueryWorkign (the one without a problem).
I'm not sure why this is happening and I've tried comparing all the properties of both these combo boxes and changing some of them to see if I can eliminate the problem without any joy.
I use a very standard SELECT statement to pull the data for the combo box:
SELECT CountryID, CountryName FROM tblCountryInfo ORDER By CountryName
I made a form that has a combobox that references the combo box above it, and it all worked fine, then I moved it into a navigation form and it stopped working. This was because the source was still using the static reference of the standalone form, not the subform it is now. So I've changed the row source a number of times, but each time, when run, access fails to find it, instead asking for a parameter to be input. The lines
The Nav form is Navigation_Form, the subform is MCR_Log, the combo box is Affected_Subservices and the referenced combobox is Affected_Services.
Code: Forms!Navigation_Form!MCR_Log.Form!Affected_Services or Code: Me!Affected_Services
does not work, even if I change the bangs and dots around. I can't attach the file to this forum, so here is a dropbox link to have a play around.
Bonus Question, I want the first combobox to accept multiple arguments, and the second to display all the subservices under each service, would the record source for that look something like
Code: SELECT Subservices.Subservice FROM Subservices WHERE Subservices.Parent = Me!*Affected_Services*; ?
I have a report that is returning percentages based upon other calculated fields. Some of the percentage fields are showing #Num on the report. I've found this is due to one of the calculated values being zero.
I have a chart that shows the amount of complaints every month in the last year of a selected costumer. The goal is to see if the amount of complaints from this costumer is decreasing or increasing.
The problem is that some smaller costumers have months without complaints (in real life that isn’t that bad). But my graph only displays a dot for the months were the amount of complaints is not null. This makes that the graph line doesn’t show the complete picture.
I know that I should be able to solve this with an ISNULL expression. I have tried the following SQL code as Row Source of the graph: SELECT (Format([Complaintdate],"MMM 'YY")), ISNULL(Count([Complaintnumber])),0 AS [CountOfComplaintnumber] FROM [Complaints] WHERE [Complaintdate] > (Date() -365) AND [Costumername] = Forms!Report_complaintscostumer!Combocustumername GROUP BY (Year([Complaintdate])*12 + Month([Complaintdate])-1),(Format([Complaintdate],"MMM 'YY")); The result of this is that all the months with complaints now get a 0 value and still the months without complaints aren’t shown.
What am I doing wrong? Could someone help me solve this problem? Any help is greatly appreciated!
Hello all, I am trying to dispay results in a query which is based upon time.
e.g.
Sample data - class and class start time
Class one - 7pm Class two - 7pm Class three - 7pm Class Four - 8pm Class Five - 8pm Class Six - 9pm Class Seven - 9pm Class Eight - 9pm Class Nine - 9pm
If i was using the sample data above and the time was between 7pm to 8pm i would like to show only the classes which started at 7pm, or if the time was 8pm to 9pm, only show the classes which started at 8pm and the same for 9pm
I hope i have explained myself clearly, and I will be thankful for any help.
I`ve searched the forums, but not knowing the terminology, i cant find what I`m looking for.
I have a table which is use for a drop down list in my forms. This is saved into a table, but shows up as a numerical instead of the name value.
Also In reports, I get a numerical value, instead of the text value.
Is there something I`m over looking ? Or am I doing something totally wrong. My relationships are correct. and the field data is right, I just cant over come the number issue.
I have a list of departments, 1-17, where each needs a SUM of their price for each end of day.
At first I was going to make 17 queries, and place each into a new sub-report, but there must be a way to list all 17, even if they haven't had a sale put through.
I've tried linking using "show all values in tblDept and only those that match in tblOrder" - but I cam across a very obvious issue.
The items are grouped by Z1 Number, a unique number for the end of day sales. If there is no department linked to a Z1 number, then it won't show it. For example, if there were no sales in dept01, then there is no record under tblOrder to show a Z1 number for dept01 - so there is nothing to link to in the report.
I was then thinking of creating false data at the end of day so the Z1 number mentioned each department at least once, but that would get messy and not 'normal'
I'm thinking of a type of loop to generate the report so a 17 row report is generated,
However, the data is now showing on the generated invoice.The rest are showing up but one.I went back to the tables to check and there is data present.It used to work until recently.
I have one combo box bounded with two fields, Id and Description through a query.
I entered a new id in bonded table but for some reason I don't want to enter description now.
And if I delete the entered id then I will loss that unique id which is using for description, which I don't want.Now the problem is one blank space showing in my combo box.
So what criteria I should use in query criteria to avoid blank spaces?
I have a report on which I have a combo box showing text value as open issues and closed issues. What I want to do is on the report in a text box show count of open issues and closed issues separately.
I am trying to use a combobox called Manufacturer to select which table the combobox called Model gets it's rowsource from using the code below.
Code:
Private Sub Manufacturer_AfterUpdate() If (Me.Manufacturer.Value = "Siemens") Then Me.Model.RowSourceType = "Table/Query" Me.Model.Recordset = "SeimensTable" Me.Model.RowSource = "SELECT Model FROM SeimensTable" Else If (Me.Manufacturer.Value = "Samsung") Then Me.Model.RowSourceType = "Table/Query" Me.Model.Recordset = "SamsungTable" Me.Model.RowSource = "SELECT Model FROM SamsungTable" End If End If End Sub
But when I run the form and select Manufacturer. Combobox Model remains empty. tell me what I'm doing wrong?
I am trying to create a query to show the sum of monies received. However, where there is no money received instead of showing the value as £0.00 it comes up blank.
