Forms :: Custom Ribbon Is Not Activated On Subform
Apr 24, 2013
In Access 2007.I have a Main Form with (1) subforms that have a differenet .RibbonName set. When switching focus to the subforms, the Ribbon Tab for the Main Form stays active and the subform's Ribbon is not activated. I have put the ribbons assigned to the subforms on a main form, and they activate as expected. This is a major issue to which I can find nothing on the web!If i open subform directly, ribbon functioning fine
-Allow Full Menus = false;
-start from scratch = true;

I have the following xml script in my table and I want to make the 3rd button be a image that is saved in my c drive.
Code:
<customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2006/01/customui" onLoad="onRibbonLoad1">
<ribbon startFromScratch="true" >
<tabs>
[code]....
I found the following getimage script but am not sure how to apply it to my button, I have seem various examples on sites but just can't get it to work.
Can I somehow set the icon path like C:Image1.png
Code:
Public Sub getImages(control As IRibbonControl, _
ByRef image)
Set Image = LoadPicture(getAppPath & control.Tag)
' Maybe something like
' Set Image = LoadPicture(c:image1.png)
End Sub

I've created a custom ribbon for my end users (Access 2010) and everything looks and works great except for one issue that is becoming a deal breaker for me and my end users:
I've got a number of tabs on my custom ribbon and on each tab there are a number of buttons that open various forms and reports. Anytime one of those forms or reports is opened and then closed, the ribbon jumps back to the first tab in my custom ribbon. So if you were on tab 3, opened a form and then closed it, you would be jumped back to tab 1.
Any workaround for what seems to be "by design" behavior for custom ribbons? The built-in ribbon does not do this.....

In Access 2010 I made a custom ribbon.The File Tab still gives users access to features that should not be available to them such as: Compact & Repair, Encrypt etc.I spent a few hours looking for a solution but found none that works.It does not seem to be possible to hide the File Tab, but is there a way to hide the options it reveals?

I have created an application. It has a split front end and back end. I plan to distribute the runtime version. I have used code throughout that "hides" the microsoft access shell for popup (modal) windows. In every form & report I have a function to show or hide the access window. Everything works great until I get to my reports. I open reports in print preview. I created a custom table (USysRibbons) and added a Reports print preview ribbon & xml. I assigned that ribbon to my report(s), and I assigned it in options as the default ribbon. If I test the ribbon (by working in the database using "shift" open) I see my ribbon. But, in when I open app without shift or or if I emulate runtime, I can't get the ribbon.
I have multiple popups forms, several non popup forms and a couple of reports.I just want to keep all the access background stuff hidden - except for needing the ability to print.

I can't figure out Form Filters. Basically I have a load of controls on the form. The first control I select I'm able to click the Filter button on the Ribbon and get shown a load of checkboxes to filter the field on (see capture.png)On subsequent controls, clicking the Filter button on the ribbon doesn't show the checkboxes for that control (see capture2.png).

I have disabled the Ribbon using XML code in the USysRibbon table. Everything has worked fine, except that now when I click on two different tabs that exist on my form, the Form Tools Ribbon pops up with options to go to Layout, Design View, etc., and other options, too.
I have two subforms on this tab, but neither one has a Ribbon Name set (I didn't even know how to do that when I made them) where to look to see why this is happening. The Ribbon does not show at all on the other tabs like it is supposed to. It only shows when I click on my 3rd and 4th tabs, and then it disappears again when I click on other tabs.

I am trying to find a way to hide the close button on the ribbon. My 2007 and 2010 users keep closing the database by the "x" and it's driving me nuts. I have an exit on the switchboard. I tried to disable navigation and ribbons under options and it hides everything except the x. I tried the code:
Code:
Docmd.Showtoolbar "Ribbon", acToolbarNo
In the startup form. Still doesn't give me what I want.

When you open a form in datasheet view, the default ribbon is of course the "Datasheet" tab. I would rather have the "Home" tab ribbon open up, because I have one field in this form set up as hyperlinks to open another form, so the filter and search buttons would be more useful to the user. I'd rather not go to the trouble to create a custom ribbon, so is there anyway to set the default ribbon tab to "Home" when you load the form? There is a ribbon property for the form, but I don't know the reference name for the tab.

Code : DoCmd.ShowToolbar "Ribbon", acToolbarNo
Should hide the ribbon. Instead I get a 'Variable Not Found' error.
This should be simple.

I have a sub form in datasheet view and need to custom alternate row colors with criteria from the main form.
E.g. If the Criteria field in the main form is 4, row colors must alternate after every forth record in the sub form. First 4 rows not shaded, next 4 rows shaded. If the Criteria changes to 6 then first 6 rows not shaded, next 6 shaded etc. I can do this in a Report with the Format Event but in a Form there is no Format Event.
On the Home tab, under Text Formatting group, using the Alternate Row Color drop-down list, changes every row, which is not what I need.

I've got buttons (on the header of my form) that I plan to make act as tabs for a single record.Each button should display more information for the same person (basically, more fields from a different table, but with the same primary-foreign key).So, when I click (one of) these buttons, a different form should open and display the record assigned with the same primary key.I don't want to use the default tab control because it's ugly and doesn't go well with my theme or my layout.

I am using Microsoft Access 2010. It provides great filtering and sorting options in the ribbon for any object. But what if I hide the ribbon and want to create custom buttons on the form to do the filtering and sorting job? There are some filter options available in macros but are not quite like the ribbon's own Filter button. When the Filter button is clicked from the Robbin, a filter menu pops-up under the active field, which doesn't happen when I try to do it using Macro functions like "Apply Filter" or "Set Filter" etc. I want to have that big "FILTER" button from the Ribbon on my form.

I need to create an "autonumber" field in the following format:
FYYMMXX
Where F is a constant, YY is the year, MM is the month, and XX is an incremented number. So for example, the first record in August of 2013 would be "F130801".
I've been checking other threads but haven't been able to follow them to a resolution. I think there is a way to do this within my form...

I have tried the code below, but I am not getting what I need. I have a table [Student Info] with a field [Student ID] as the primary key and many other fields. I added the Student ID field to my form, [Student Add]. When I input an ID that already exists I get an error code as expected but then my form still loads. I currently have a second form for updating student info [Student Update] for which I have a parameter form that asks for the Student ID. I would like to use just one form to add and update students if possible. So, if you add a new Student ID you can enter all pertinent data. However, if you enter a duplicate Student ID the form should populate with that student's information.
If I must have two forms (1 to add and 1 to update) and a duplicate Student ID is entered into the Add form, the user should get a message stating that the record already exists. Then, (Option 1) force the Add form to close without saving or (Option 2) give an option for opening the Update form. Either option is acceptable at this point because I am stuck.
When attempting to use the code below, I get a data mismatch error on the "Answer = DLookUp......" line.
Here's one I use on Social Security numbers for a pop up when a duplicate....
SS# is stored in table "tblApplicant"
Private Sub SocialSecurity_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim Answer As Variant
Answer = DLookup("[SocialSecurity]", "tblApplicant", "[SocialSecurity] = '" & Me.SocialSecurity & "'")
If Not IsNull(Answer) Then
MsgBox "Duplicate Social Security Number Found" & vbCrLf & "Please enter again.", vbCritical + vbOKOnly + vbDefaultButton1, "Duplicate"
Cancel = True
Me.SocialSecurity.Undo

How to create custom menus in Forms in MS ACcess 2010. For example, I have a form fmrMainMenu. At the top of the form I want to create a menu labelled "Reports" that when clicked or hovered it displays a list of sub-menu options of all the Reports available in the database. Once the user makes a selection the report is generated. The functionality that I am looking for is similar to the old menu options like File, Edit, etc., in MS Office.

I'm using access 2003. I've got a textbox placed ontop of an image that I want to make it seem to disappear on a conditional format.
The back color property of the textbox I want to set is "13160660". How do I choose this colour when applying conditional formatting as I only seem to be able to choose from the swatch of 40 default colours and no option to define custom colours.
