I have imported the contents of my database into a new database, as all the testing is completed and want a clean start without any dummy data in it or anything. My main form which is where most of the interaction with the database goes on appears blank with no controls on it on form view. In design view, I can see everything (buttons, search fields, subforms etc) but turn into form view, it's blank (except the header). Does anyone know why this happened?
My form was working fine but when I added an extra tab it started showing as completely blank in design view. When I deleted the tab I had added I still was left with the same problem!
I've attached an image of the form properties. I want to use the form to enter data so it needs to show even if there are no records.
I had read that it could be if there is no data but typing data in the tables hasn't worked either.
Please help
I have created a database to track student grades. I have made a report that shows the different grades for each criteria of each unit but, because the students get to do the unit many times it shows the same criteria many times on the report. What I want to do is have the report show only the best grade for each criteria.
i also want to be able to work out the average grade for each unit from the best grade for each criteria and store this for use in another table.
If you require more info i would be happy to supply this. Thanks

I've got a text box, populated by a query.
(it looks like a list because it's tabular view)
you can always see the empty record... any way you can stop it showing?
or failing that, I have a dblclick event on all the textboxes. But It doesn't work with the blank record..
this is quite frustrating.. any help please?
Good morning All.
I have a database which updates via a Function in a module every morning (i.e imports and exports data).
Yesterday the DB crashed and incurred a problem. The DB was closed down and re-opened.
When it was re-opened all the Tables, Queries, Forms, Reports and Modules were no longer showing in the DB window.
When I selected the Tables tab the following message appeared:
Operation Invalid Without Current Index
this was then followed by another message:
"Isn't an index in this table. Look in the indexes collection of the TableDef object to determine the valid index names
This also appears if I try selecting the other tabs i.e. Queries, Modules etc.
The strange thing is the DB still updates at its stipulated time, and still imports and exports data. I am running Access 97.
Does anybody have any idea of how I can sort this out?
Regards

I am around 2 months working with access. I created an application/dataentry form and it was working very well. suddenly today, I got an error which says. Run-time Error 5 "Invalid Procedure Call or Argument. together with that or may be independent, a pop up search form just disappeared. I put a msgbox in form load of pop up form and the msgbox appears but the pop up form just disappeared.
I was about to give the application to use and thats when all these happened ...
Have a strange problem. I've created a form with multiple subforms and if there is a record for the subform to display everything looks fine. However, if there is no record for the subform it does not show anything on the screen or if printed.
I would like for the fields on the subforms to show no matter what but I can't figure out why it doing this. I've checked the display parameters and everything is set right.
How do I make the forms show no matter if there is data to display?
Any help is greatly appreciated -
Thanks
Hi,
Each client has either an entry with a correspondence number or a notes number. So, the table would look somewhat like this:
Client: 333, Correspondence: 1, Notes: Blank
Client: 333, Correspondence: 2, Notes: Blank
Client: 333, Correspondence: Blank, Notes: 3
Client: 333, Correspondence: Blank, Notes: 4
How would I make a report that will make it look like this
Client: 333, Correspondence: 1, Notes: 3
Client: 333, Correspondence: 2, Notes: 4
Thanks! Hope that was clear.

I have a report that is based on a query I have made. It currently shows the values as kept in the table. It is for a MAR sheet. Here is how it looks...
Breakfast 0
Lunch 0
Teatime 2
Bedtime 1
I want it to show blank for each 0 that is shown. I have tried an Iif statement to do this but it doesn't seem to work.
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 want to open a report but only showing the result of one record in a sub form,
i have a field that is on all rows of the subform,[click to run] and what i want the user to be able to do is double click on this field and it will open the report with only the record information for that row displayed.
I have a query, that I have a criteria to show appointments in the past (< Date()) but one result doesn't show up although the appointment end date is a past date, it only shows up when I fill in a field that is in another table that is joined and part of the query. But there's no criteria there for it to not be null.

Currently it is showing a blank field for that topic name and blanks in the count as well.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi Have scoured the forum and have found people with a similar problem, but I just can't seem to get my head round this.
Basically I have a table with various fields, one of these fields is a sign off field where the user enters their name once the record has been reviewed.
I want to count all the records that do not have a name entered in this particular field thus are null/blank. I then want this figure to appear on a form thus representing the total number of records still to be reviewed.
I have tried doing this with various methods with no joy.
Any help would be much appreciated.
I have a query which selects a material ID and material name from one table and the associated manufacturer, supplier, and packaging type from three other tables. Some of the manufacturer, supplier, and packaging data were imported from an Excel spreadsheet and did not have data for those fields, so those fields are blank. When I run the query, I only get the records which have all fields filled out. How can I get the records where the material ID and material name are filled in, but the manufacturer, supplier, or packaging type are blank? Here is the query I'm using currently:
Code:
SELECT tblMaterialSpecifications.ID, tblMaterialSpecifications.Critical, tblMaterialSpecifications.MaterialSupply, tblManufacturer.Manufacturer, tblSupplier.Supplier, tblPackaging.PackageType
FROM tblPackaging INNER JOIN (tblSupplier INNER JOIN (tblManufacturer INNER JOIN tblMaterialSpecifications ON tblManufacturer.ID = tblMaterialSpecifications.ManufacturerID) ON tblSupplier.ID = tblMaterialSpecifications.SupplierID) ON tblPackaging.ID = tblMaterialSpecifications.PackagingID
WHERE (((tblMaterialSpecifications.ActiveInactive)=-1))
ORDER BY tblMaterialSpecifications.Critical, tblMaterialSpecifications.MaterialSupply;
I am trying to show a certain subform based on whether or not a field is blank or null. This database is not owned by me--it's what we use to run queries and reports on the data on a centralized server for the library. It's not even in the same city--so changing the tables is not an option for me.
So, I have a subform (subform1) that is linked to the main form based on 2 fields (BibID and Item_Enum). The trouble is that the second field (Item_Enum) is sometimes blank, so the subform will not display. So I created another subform (subform2), which is a duplicate of the first one, but this time only linked on the first field (BibID). So, if that second field (Item_Enum) is blank, I want subform2 to display and subform1 to be hidden. If the second field (Item_Enum) is not blank, I want subform1 to display, and subform2 to be hidden.
I've tried putting the VBA code on different events for the form, but I can't get it to work consistently.
There are two problems, one of which I think I have fixed--but I would prefer a better solution. The VBA code doesn't run unless the form is newly loaded. I've tried placing the VBA code on different form events, but nothing works. I want the code to activate whenever a new record is displayed. The work around is that the form IS newly loaded every time the user scans a barcode for a new book. That works now, but if I need to change the way the user looks up new records, this might not work anymore.
The second problem is that the VBA code doesn't display subform1 when Item_Enum is blank. It doesn't display subform2 either, but that's the desired result.
Private Sub Form_Load()
If Me.ITEM_ENUM = "*" Then
Me.subform2.Visible = False
Me.subform1.Visible = True
Else
Me.subform2.Visible = True
Me.subform1.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
I've tried changing the condition to Me.Item_Enum = null, and changing the false/true results accordingly, but that didn't work either. In that case, only subform2 is visible, whether it should be or not.
In the Purchase Order details form a Supplier has to be chosen via a combo box. Based on that another combo box in the subform displays products only from this supplier (Products table is linked to supplier table).
I managed to let the subform combo show only relevant products using criteria referring to the main form combo box. Also other product data will show accordingly in text boxes. So far so good.
However when I close the form and reopen it the subform combo box is blank, other text boxes still show the right values. If I remove the filter criteria for the subform combo then all fields show all data correctly. (However the combo box is unfiltered again 8-/)
So somehow the 'criteria' prevents the combo to show the value that was previously chosen.
I have a report that should only show 1 page yet I have 2 and one is blank . I cannot find out why?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen entering information into a blank form, I would like to be able to continue entering information to another additional blank form after my last entry.

View 7 Replies View RelatedUp until recently, when I selected multiple objects in design view (on a form) and right-clicked the mouse, I had several options in the 'Size' sub-menu (including 'Size to Widest / Tallest / Narrowest / Shortest').
Then I tried to be clever(!) and create a new custom toolbar which had just these options on it, as I use them frequently. This was all very well until now, when I can't find the custom toolbar I created, and the options have disappeared from the Size submenu aswell!
Has anyone got any ideas on how I can get them back??
(I have tried going into Customize to drag them back, but they're not there either! :( )

Hi,
My mainform, which controls virtually all operations, has dissappeared.
Since itīs supposed to load when starting the database, the form actually loads, but you canīt see it in the forms window.
when I try to edit the code I get the message "module not found".
What do I do?
Thanks

I'm currently facing a strange problem! When I want to insert a command-button, a drop-down menu etc. no userguides appear anymore. I like to do the most basic work in design-mode, so I kind of miss then a lot...
How can I make them come back???

Hi there
I've been playing around with creating a switchboard. At first, I saw a form appear in the forms area called switchboard. but now it's gone. I have a switchboard marked as Default under Switchboard Manager, I can see that a table has been created called Switchboard Items, but it won't open on startup. (obviously, because there isn't a form which I can point to in the startup box)
Any idea why the switchboard form is not being created?
Thanks
Sunil
