Forms :: Command Button To Unlock And Lock Fields / Edit Button?

Feb 19, 2014

I have created a web-database (? - There are globes over all the forms and tables icons) based on the Issues & Tasks template. This means that most of the data is entered and seen on the "Main" form, which has two tabs - Open Issues and Closed Issues. I have created a form that allows people at my work to input the necessary data and save it, so that it will show up on one of the two tabs. However, once a record has been created, I want to be initially locked if the ID/PK is clicked, so that data can't be changed or entered inadvertently.

SO, I changed the code so that when the ID/PK for a record is clicked, it brings up a different form, but one that looks exactly like the one that is brought up when entering a new form, but I locked all of the fields so that the information cannot be changed. It seems from what I have read that I can create a button on this form so that when clicked, it unlocks the fields on the form so that they can be changed, and then when clicked again it will lock the fields again. Is this true? If so, how can I do it? Or is there something similar I can do? I have seen codes that I could copy and paste, but I cannot figure out the place to copy and paste codes in Access 2010.

I have changed the Form properties so that Data Entry and all the "Allows" are set to No...

Forms :: Lock / Unlock Textboxes Based On Option Button?

May 11, 2014

I have a form with 2 option buttons on it one with year 12 on it and one with year 13. I have a simple form with drop down menus and text boxes allocated for year 12s and 13s. I want all of the year 13 text boxes and drop down lists to be locked if year 12 is selected and I want all of the year 12 text boxes and drop down lists to be locked if year 13 is selected. I do not want to over complicate the form by hiding parts of it or having a new form open depending on the option button selected.

Cancelling A Mask Edit With A Command Button

Aug 24, 2005

Hi,

I have a form with a text box using a mask edit. How would I go about "exiting" the form by pressing on a button?

DoCmd.Close will not override any incorrect entries in the textbox - Is there a way to "undo" anything in the textbox so that I can exit the form after clicking on the command button.

DoCmd.Close will only close the form if the entered data in the mask edit is either correct or there is not data. (An error pops up if there is incomplete data in the textbox).

Forms :: Filtering With Command Button - Search Multiple Fields At Once?

Jun 20, 2013

I have this code which filters a form with the command button ("Command 82"), but it only searches in the "TASK_NUMBER" field.

How can I make it search multiple fields at once? I feel like you can just use the "Or" operator, but where do I put it?

Private Sub Command82_Click()
Me.Filter = "TASK_NUMBER Like '" & "*" & Me.Text80 & "*'"
Me.FilterOn = True
Me.Requery
End Sub

Forms :: Make Command Button Override Required Fields Focus?

Sep 18, 2014

I am using code like this to give warning messages and pass on focus to boxes only when things are selected.

Private Sub TextBox2_Exit(Cancel As Integer)
If IsNull(Me.TextBox2) Then
MsgBox "TextBox2 cannot be left blank"
Cancel = True
Else
ComboBox1.SetFocus
End If
End Sub

I do this for a series of required fields in order.

However, I also want a command button that is 'Exit without Saving' that should be clickable at any time, but of course when focus is controlled in my required fields sequence, it can't be clicked. How can I separate this button?

Forms :: Lock / Unlock Form AND Subforms From Editing Data

Mar 24, 2014

I have a form with several subforms within (tabbed subforms). I've used the code:

In the Current event of the parent form -

Code:
Me.AllowEdits = False
Me.AllowDeletions = False
Me.AllowAdditions = False

In the Current event of each of the subforms -

Code: (THIS NEVER WORKS FOR ME - RUNTIME ERROR)
Me.AllowEdits = Me.Parent.AllowEdits
Me.AllowDeletions = Me.Parent.AllowDeletions
Me.AllowAdditions = Me.Parent.AllowAdditions

In the Click event of the button -

Code:
Me.AllowEdits = True
Me.AllowDeletions = True
Me.AllowAdditions = True

So the main form is locked upon opening and unlocked with the click of an unlock button. How to apply this to the subforms as well. They just stayed unlocked the whole time.

Difference Between A Command Button And A 'label' Button

Aug 12, 2005

Hi, I have got a small problem and maybe someone could advise me.
I am creating a customised command button from a label button. The new button works fine but I can't apply the 'requery' function to it, if i do an error occures and i am being prompt to save the data first???? :confused: :


Private Sub Labelsearch_Click()
Me!itemquery.Requery
End Sub

Private Sub Labelsearch_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Me.Labelsearch.SpecialEffect = 2
Me.Labelsearch.BackColor = 255
Me.Labelsearch.ForeColor = 10092543
Me.Labelsearch.FontItalic = True
Me.Labelsearch.FontBold = True
End Sub

Private Sub Labelsearch_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Me.Labelsearch.ForeColor = 255
Me.Labelsearch.FontItalic = False
Me.Labelsearch.FontBold = True
End Sub

Private Sub Labelsearch_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
'Come back to initial state when button release'
Me.Labelsearch.SpecialEffect = 1
Me.Labelsearch.BackColor = 16373685
Me.Labelsearch.ForeColor = 8388608
Me.Labelsearch.FontItalic = False
Me.Labelsearch.FontBold = True
End

If I create a command button with the wizard and assign the code :
me!itemquery.Requeryto the on_click event my form is working fine.
Why is his code is not working if I assign it to a label? :o

Forms :: Button To Change Form From View To Edit

Mar 12, 2014

I have created a form in Access 2010 that opens in view only mode. I do this as I do not want data being changed in error. There are times when the user may need to edit some data on the form.

Any way to place an "Edit" button on the form that allows the user to edit the current record? I thought about creating two sepasrate forms, but I really don't want to maintain two of them.

Command Button To Open Another Form - Matching Specific Data Fields

Aug 25, 2011

I have a subform in which I want to put in a Command Button to open another form.

I used the wizard as per normal, but when you come to matching specific data fields, there is nothing in my left hand column of the sub form. I have checked the record source property and it is bound to the correct table.

I have read that this is an issue with Access 2007? Is this the case or am I missing something obvious here?

Forms :: Edit Button To Enable Edits On Form And Subform

Sep 22, 2013

I have a form "Handover" on this form I have a button that enables edit functionality once clicked, I now have a subform on this form named "Bdown".

The Bdown subform allows edits without having to click the "btn_Edit" on the main form "Handover".

Is is possible to make the edit button on "Handover" control the edit function on "Bdown" also?

Currently "Handover" contains:

Code:
Private Sub btn_Edit_Click()
Me.AllowEdits = True
Me.btn_Edit.Caption = "Editing"
End Sub

Changing Forms With Button Command

Oct 1, 2004

I want to open a new form with information related to the main form.

The code I've used is:
Private Sub GoToContacts_Click()

Command Button To Link Forms

Apr 6, 2006

Alright I give up. I searched the forums and read up but still not grasping it. I know I've done something like this before but my brain must be dead today.

So I have 4 important tables. I have a main one and 3 tables that have records related to the main one. They're all the "many" sides of the one to many relationship with the main table. Outline is below:

Main Table:
EMP_ID (Primary key)
...and other fields

Employment Table:
HIRE_ID (Primary key)
EMP_ID (for relationship)
...and other fields

Insurance Table:
INS_ID (Primary key)
EMP_ID (for relationship)
...and other fields

Skill Table:
SKILL_ID (Primary key)
EMP_ID (for relationship)
...and other fields

So basically what I'm looking for is to have a main form pop up that has the Main table information (employee info). Then on that form I want 3 command buttons, each one going to a new form that relates to the three tables above and is relative to the Main table. Each employee may have several hire/fire listings, insurance listings (if they change their insurance), and skill ratings (updated as they improve). When I have set all my relationships so that the EMP_ID on the Main table has a one to many relationship with all the EMP_IDs on the other tables. When I create the command buttons though and start to populate a record in one of the three "subforms" the EMP_ID is not populating to be the same as the EMP_ID from the main page thus making me unable to create a record because it doesn't recognize a related record.

What the heck am I doing wrong

I have a form with command buttons that run different macro's that downloads queries into Excel.

What i would like to do if it is possible, is to somehow add an explanation of what the download will contain if the user should either hover over the button or even better if there was a way of adding ? box to the button so that the user could click on the ? and get a description of what will be downloaded.

I do have a very brief description on the button stating what it does but I would like to give the user a more detailed description of what is in the download.

VBA Code:
Go To Previous Record : DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acPrevious
