I have a continuous subform with an unbound Concat textbox and would like to populate another field for each record with the results with a main form button onClick event.
How do I accomplish this?
I have a continuous subform which essentially comprises of a textbox that shows a field from a query.
The text in that box is essentially a few letters and a few numbers - what I am wondering is if I can have an on click event for the textbox, that when a user clicks the text it takes them to the record (in a different form) that matches the text contained in the textbox they clicked?
I have 4 fields that are unbound on a form. img1 img2 img3 img4..When these are entered they are all combined and autofill another unbound textbox = imagename.. what i would like to do is from this unbound textbox 'imagename' ..i would like to populate a textbox that IS bound called FileName
[Event Procedure]
Private Sub imagename_Click()
Me.imagename = Me.FileName
End Sub
I want to show an subform where in I would like to display images,txt,xlsx that are stored in a directory as icons which when clciked would open the respective files.The info related to the images are stored in t_CustomerFiles.
Record ID, CustomerID, DestinationPath,EventFileName,
1, A, C:UsersTestDesktopCustFiles, CustA1.jpg
2, A, C:UsersTestDesktopCustFiles, CustA2.xlsx
3, B, C:UsersTestDesktopCustFiles, CustB1.txt
4, C, C:UsersTestDesktopCustFiles, CustC1.jpg
5, C, C:UsersTestDesktopCustFiles, CustC2.jpg.
I would like to show them on a continusous sub form .. I am using image control by setting its control source property but it does not seem to work..Do I need something else for the xlsx and txt files..
I have a form called frm002_PAF_MonitoringMAIN and on this form I have a subform called frm002_PAF_Monitoring. The subform has a button to another form for contact details called Contact_Details. The Contact_Details form opens with the details of the person who I have selected on frm002_PAF_Monitoring. There are some fields on frm002_PAF_Monitoring that I would like to be populated on Contact_Details when opened, like FirstName and LastName. How can I do it?I have tried on afterupdate event on Contact_Details below but those don't work:
Me!FirstName=[Forms]![frm002_PAF_Monitoring]![FirstName]
Me!FirstName=[Forms]![frm002_PAF_MonitoringMAIN]![frm002_PAF_Monitoring]![FirstName]
Me![FirstName].Value=[Forms]![frm002_PAF_Monitoring]![FirstName]
Me![FirstName].Value=[Forms]![frm002_PAF_MonitoringMAIN]![frm002_PAF_Monitoring]![FirstName]
I have a continuous sub form linked to a master form. The sub form contains fields such as [date], [increase], [lastdateincrease], [task], and multiple other fields. The sub form can have one record or multiple records linked to the master form.
Each sub form record represents a service, monthly cost, and a price increase amount. I'd like to be able to enter data in two fields and have this data populate any remaining records, or for that matter, new records that I had to the sub form.
The fields that I would like to have populate are [date] and [increase].
When I enter the [date] and [increase] in the first record, I'd like all remaining records in the sub form to update with the [date] and [increase] amount automatically.
I have a tabbed form from which the user can select a contact's record from a subform on the first tab, click a edit command button, and the unbound text boxes on the top of that tab populate. The user can then click the second tab with employment history which has blank unbound text boxes and another subform which is linked by the contact id to the first tab.
The user can select a record in the second tab, click a command button and the text boxes populate no problem. The problem comes when the user changes the contact on the first tab, and then tries to edit a record on the second tab. Then I get a run-time error '-2147352567 (80020009)' saying the value you entered isn't valid for this field. Why it would work the first time by not the second?
I have a continuous subform which queries a table of attachments. I'm using Access 2007 but not using the Attachment datatype; this DB will grow considerably and I don't want to waste precious space by filling it with bulky files. So instead, I have code which makes a copy of the attachment and adds the hyperlink (to the copy) to the table instead.
Now - I want to add a control to the subform to display an icon / image reflecting the file type of the attachment (Word doc, Excel s/s, PDF etc.)
But not sure how to go about it.
I was thinking I could use FileSystemObject.GetFileExtension at the point in the code where the attachment is added, and add a new field to my attachments table (i.e. translate "*.xls*" to "Excel", etc.) Then store / embed a handful of images for the core types I would expect and use an image control on the subform to display the image based on the value of that field.
But is that even possible / feasible?
Or, is there a handy API which can retrieve the icon associated with a file type based on what has been installed on the local machine (even if there is, there's still the problem of setting up the image control to display the appropriate icon specific to each record...)
Or, is there another control available which would be better suited to something like this than an Image control?
I am trying to create a login form with the following three basic fields:
txtUsername
cboUsertype
txtPassword
I would like to be able to populate cboUsertype with User types associated to the user I type into txtUsername. I have found many useful tutorial on the web on login procedures. How ever I hardly found anything on how to populate a combobox after updating a texfield. It bis more than a week that I am trying to find a solution but until now I have just been . I would be grateful if you could provide me with either a link on the web or a vb code to make it work.
I have a form with a button that pops up a datasheet with a number of records. I need the dbl click event to populate a hidden text field with the id of the item that was double clicked.
Ive found the double click even and can get the double click to close the window, but i need to populate the text field as well.
I found a few regarding continuous form data but its not the sample that fits.
Attached here is my screen shot and my accdb file (MSAccess 2013)
How do they populate unbound continuous form from msaccess connecting to mysql server.
It should display 5 data but in my case it does show only one data.
I have two subforms on a main form. Both use similar queries and nearly the same set of records and PK. The first subform is for data entry and the 2nd subform is a continuous form that lists the entries in order that are made from the 1st Subform. (for entering in vacation days and appointments)
The continuous form cannot be edited, it is to be a list for viewing the information only.
I have an edit button next to each record on the continuous form. When the button is clicked, I want it to take the 1st subform to that specific record as well (same PK), so the information can be edited there.
I cannot figure out how to get the 1st subform to go to the record on the continuous form when the button next to that record is clicked on the continuous form.
I tried the DoCmdSearch for record and just keep getting object is not open errors.
We're looking at a way that we can easily display what stage our clients' email marketing campaigns are at - in one section of our CRM our Campaign Manager will enter information on whether the campaign has broadcast (ie: emailed out to the required circulation list(s)), if we're waiting for artwork from the client or if we're chasing for that information.
I have four text boxes (date format) hidden on a subform that I need to pull ONE max date from.
So, as an example:
Email1 (our first email to the client chasing for artwork) = 01/01/2015
Email2 (our second email to the client chasing artwork) = 08/01/2015
Email3 (our third chase email) = 15/01/2015
Broadcast (the date the email campaign was finally sent) = 29/01/2015
I would need some code to show in an unbound textbox "Broadcast: 29/01/2015"
But, on the other hand, if the dates looked like this:
Email1 = 01/01/2015
Email2 = 08/01/2015
Email3 = Null
Broadcast = Null
I would need some code to show the following in an unbound textbox "Last Chased: 08/01/2015"
So we can easily see the status of our marketing campaigns at any stage in the process.
I've tried using IF THEN ELSE statements in the subform's On Current event, but that populates the information from the record you've selected across all the other records on the sub as well.
So I'm wondering if it's worth setting the Control Source of the unbound textbox I want to display the campaign status in as a bunch of nested IIF statements instead?
I am trying to populate a txtBox on the SubForm of a Form, Using a Set Value Function = DlookUp function. The DlookUp Function searches for a value in the table and compares it to a value of another txtBox of the subform .The problem is:
-Using the Left Switch on Mouse works fine, txtBox is populated correctly
-Using the Enter Key does not work; it clears the box used for the seaech data and does not populate the txtBox.
I tried placing the procedure in the After Update event and also placing it in the on Enter event to no avail.
There are two forms invoolved in thi
pfrm_AddClientPrimary
pfrm_AddClientDuplicateCheck
On a command button in pfrm_AddClientDuplicateCheck I have the following code.
Code:
Private Sub cmdAddNewClient_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "pfrm_AddClientPrimary"
DoCmd.Close acForm, "pfrm_AddClientDuplicateCheck"
End Sub
This works great
On the onOpen event of the pfrm_AddClientPrimary form I have this code
Code:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.FirstName = Forms!pfrm_AddClientDuplicateCheck!txtFirstName
Me.LastName = Forms!pfrm_AddClientDuplicateCheck!txtLastName
Me.SocialInsureanceNumber = Forms!pfrm_AddClientDuplicateCheck!txtSOcialInsureanceNumber
Me.FirstName.SetFocus
End Sub
This fails on the first line with this error
Run-time error 2147352567 (80020009)
You can't assign a value to this object
I am aware of the incorrect spelling of Me.SocialInsureanceNumber this is the way it is in the db.
I am trying to search on EmployeeID field and populate corresponding data like EmployeeName, EmployeePay in other text boxes in the same box .
In my Unbound Form I have three unbound Text Boxes and one Command button:
txtEmpID
txtEmpName
txtEmpPay
cmdFind
In my table EMPLOYEE i have three fields
EmpID -- Autonumber
EmpName -- Text
EmpPay -- Text
I have a form with two text boxes and a button. I want to be able to type a value into the first Text box click the button and the second text box to be filled with the value which is stored in the Table.
The first Textbox is called barTxt, The second Textbox is called CustTxt The button is called SearchBtn and the Table is called BookInTable. I have been trying to use the code.
Code:
Private Sub SearchBtn_Click()
DoCmd.FindRecord Me.BarTxt.Value, , True, , True
CustTxt.Value = "SELECT BookInTable.Customer FROM BookInTable " & _
" WHERE Customer = """ & Nz(Me.BarTxt) & """" & _
" ORDER BY Customer"
End Sub
This however instead of displaying the Value for customer which is stored in the BookInTable. Displays The code SELECT BookInTable.Customer FROMBookInTable " & _ " WHERE Customer = """ & Nz(Me.BarTxt) & """" & _ " ORDER BY Customer"
I'm working on a purchasing database where if the user checks a box on a subform, another field needs to be disabled. The code works, but since this is a continuous subform, it disables that field on every row. Is there any way to make it stick to the row the user is working on?
Here's the code:
If Me!acs_puchase = -1 Then
Me!inventory_po.Enabled = False
ElseIf Me!acs_puchase = 0 Then
Me!inventory_po.Enabled = True
End If
Thank you!
I have a main form with a subform in continuous format. The subform displays the list of records and has a delete key allowing the user to delete that line (record) All works except if the user clicks the delete button on the new record line. Then there is an error message. Rather than use error trapping I would like to code a message OR simply beep to confirm nothing was done OR have the delete button disabled until something is entered into the record. The records do have a autonumber which I have in a hidden text box. I tried the following and even though the code shows that LineID does in fact = Null the code does not fire.
If Me.LineID = Null Then
DoCmd.Beep
Exit Sub
End If
I have a continuous form that displays all my customers .I want to be able to dble click a customers ID and go to there customer details form.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a continuous subform on a form. I have applied conditional formatting with expression is.. so that the formatting on one object (field on the subform) depends on whether there is anything in another field on the same subform named "Remarks".
My problem is that I this is not working to my expectations. First of all when the form with the subform is loaded the conditional formatting does not appear immediately. One has to run over the fields with the mouse with the hope that the conditional formatting appears.
Secondly the conditional formatting is not working well as they should.
I am setting up a subform in continuous with combobox, but when I enter the data on the first combobox, it duplicated to all the following records. Is there a way to stop that?
View 2 Replies View Relatedi would like to have on my continuous subform fields from my table but only as a non-editable list (I have a dedicated mod form to actually modify the values), and I don't really like the way "Locked" and/or "Enabled" work, especially on combo boxes. To me, the arrow shouldn't be there: it looks like you can modify it, but you can't; it's a bit confusing and counter intuitive.
So what I did is replace those combo boxes with text boxes, and used DLookUp in the Control Source. Now I can lock and disable the text boxes and it looks just as I want it: you can't select the text, and most importantly there's no dropdown arrow.It works, but it's kind of a lot of work compared to what it is with the cbo. Also, since those are calculated values, they take a fraction of a second to appear, as opposed to the nearly instantaneous display of the values with the cbo, and there's only 5 entries in my test database.
I have an IIF function specified on a continuous sub-form as below - basically it checks to see if the value of two text boxes is equal, and if they are it displays 'And', if not it displays the value of the column EntitlementName. I'm trying to work around grouping not working in continuous forms.
When I view the form directly it works no problems but when I view the form as a sub-form instead of showing the correct output it shows #Name? Both the text boxes I refer to have the correct values in them.
=IIF([txtPrevValue]=[txtValue], Format("And"),Format([EntitlementName])
Hi,
I want to show some text from another table based on the values of the bound fields in each record of a continuous form. I thought it would be easy, but I can't get it to work.
I step through the records in the bound recordset and use some of the values to query another table. Then I use the value from the query to populate the unbound text field.
It works fine for each record. But every time the unbound field is updated, all the records in the continuous form are updated.
I'm stuck on this one. It's probably something simple to fix - if you know what to do!
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks!
-Daniel
I have looked at multiple samples on this forum and others and cannot seem to get the result I want working.
Have main form TmLdr made from table of same name. Entries include ReqName and CostCenter. These same entries are on a subform. On the After Update event on the CoRecDt (main form), I want the name and CostCenter entered on the subform to populate on mainform. This subform will be filled out by the user once and as long as they are using their own machine there will be no need to re-enter their name.
I think that I am so close but just a touch away. I am attaching my DB with hopes someone can take a peak at it and let me know what I am missing. Thanks so much.
