I have the date set in the table and it shows up fine in the tblDate cell but doesn't pass through to the txttblDate in the form. I did have it working just fine until I rebuilt my database.
View RepliesI have a search form that searches for student ID from the student demographics table. I have it set when I click on the student ID (Frm_Student_Demographics_DailyCares) it will open the student visit form. When the student visit form opens it will show the student ID on the Student Visit Form but it is not being recorded in the student visit table.
I have Student ID control source on the Student Visit Form set as:
=[Forms]![frm_SearchStudent_DailyCares]![Frm_Student_Demographics_DailyCares].[Form].[SD_Record_ID].[Value]
My tables are called Student Demographics(parent table) and Student Daily Cares(child table) and they are linked by Student ID.
I have done this before on another part of this database but I just simply can't seem to find what I missed.
Here is a sample of my forms and tables.
In form1 I've a command button to open form2.
Code in form1:
Private Sub button_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_button_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "form2"
stLinkCriteria = button.Caption
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit_button_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_button_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_button_Click
End Sub
button.Caption contains a valid date value
In form2 I want to display the date in a label.
Code in form2:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim DatePassed As Date
DatePassed = CDate(Me.OpenArgs)
label.Caption = DatePassed
End Sub
On executing I get an error like "Invalid use of null value."
Who helps?
I have a form where I do a search and find the correct auditor in the listbox from the AuditorTable. This form is opened from a master form where I have the same fields in the table (ClientTable). What I need is that when I find the one, I double click it and the records from that auditor is passed to the client table.how to use Dlookup.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a form and in the subform for that I have a button that opens a pop up form. I want to pass the value [ACB ID] to an unbound text box in the popup form but I am having trouble. My code for the button in the subform is:
DoCmd.OpenForm "addPartNumberMod", acNormal, , "ACB = " & Me.[ACB ID], WindowMode:=acDialog
Currently when I press the button it asks me to enter the acb value instead of carrying it over. Also, when i do type in a number into the dialog, when the form opens, the text box is blank.
Anyway, I have a form that opens in datasheet view. It displays company names that exist on a client table based on a "Like" criteria the user typed into a text box. They type the word "network" in the text box, click search and a datasheet opens that has all companies that have "network" somewhere in the title. That's it. Works perfectly. We'll call this datasheet view form result "Test Query Form."
I have a second form that currently allows users to select a company from a drop down box and then populates the rest of the form with data from a table for that company. Again, works perfectly. We'll call this form "Existing Info."
I want to make a change to this second form. Rather than allow a drop down combo box for selection of the company, I want the "Test Query Form" to open the "Existing Info" form and automatically populate the form based on the company that the user double clicks on in the "Test Query Form." For instance, if I type in "network" and clicked search and got three companies with the word "network" in the company name, I want the user to double click on the second company name and have the "Existing Info" form open up with that second company on it and all the info populated for that second company.
I know this needs to be VBA code on the dblClick command for the company name cell on the "Test Query Form" but I can't quite get it to push the company name through to the "Existing Info" form.
How do I pass back a value to the calling form (i.e. 'FormA') from a form that is called (i.e. 'FormB').
'FormB' code

Msgbox strValue (This is the returned value
'FormB' code
strValue = 'This is the passing value'

I have "LossForm" to record loss of inventory items due to damage, theft, etc. It has "Loss Subform" for input of multiple items. The row has a calculated field "TotalLoss" (from qty * itemcost). The footer of subform has unbound text field =Sum(nz([TotalLoss])). This all works fine. The problem I have is that I need to pass the total to another form. I want to have a pop-up form to use some of the field values from the Loss form. I have been able to pass all of the field values except for the TotalLoss.
LossForm Close Event: "DoCmd.OpenForm "Journal", , , , acFormAdd, , Me.LossID & ";" & Me.LossDate
pop up form:
Set frmPrevious = Screen.ActiveForm
Me.TransactionID = frmPrevious.LossID
Me.EntryType = "Loss"
Me.Date = frmPrevious.LossDate
{ Me.Amount = frmPrevious.TotalLoss doesn't work }
DoCmd.Save

I have a Form 01 that has staff names and the primary key StaffID. From this form, I want to open Form 02 to add a new record linked by the StaffID. How do I automatically populate the PK (StaffID) in Form 01 as the FK (StaffID) in Form 02?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHave one form that contains values AssociatedProject and AssociatedRelease that need to be passed onto another form that opens with a new record. Have tried different variations based on what I read here and couldn't get them to work.
Initial form - frm_ViewList contains the values that I need to pass on and has a "Add" button to bring up the new form that also creates a new record. The add button contains the following:
Dim stDocName As String
MyAssociatedProject = Me.AssociatedProject
MyAssociatedRelease = Me.AssociatedRelease
stDocName = "Frm:ManageQuestionsAnswersProc"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, acNormal
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
Then in the second form Frm:ManageQuestionsAnswersProc the following code is contained in the Before Insert:
Me.AssociatedProject = MyAssociatedProject
Me.AssociatedRelease = MyAssociatedRelease
I have several different sub-forms that have a button that opens a new form which creates a new record. Each of the different sub-forms have a field value that needs to be passed to the new record when the other form is opened. I've tried a few solutions, but to no avail. Right now I'm using the macro functionality as follows for one of the subforms:
ACTION ARGUMENTS
--------------------------------
RunCommand SaveRecord
OpenForm frmDocumentNew, Form, , [AssociatedClientTracking]=[Forms]![sfrm_ClientTracking]![ID-ClientTracking], , Normal
OnError Next,
GoToRecord ,,New,
MsgBox =[MacroError].[Description], Yes, None,
SetProperty [AssociatedClientTracking], Enabled, Me.ID-ClientTracking
The problem I think is that I'm creating a new record so the value doesn't get passed. The new record is only created after the user begins to enter data in the new form that was opened.
Have a form that contains fields AssociatedProject, AssociatedRelease and then the user hits a button to create a new record and a new form opens to display this newly created record which sets the fields and also sets a field called Type. There is no issue with setting the field values and the new record is created. However, when the form opens to display the record it displays another record instead (usually the one before it). I think it could be related to the fact that the db resides on a shared drive which periodically has slow connectivity. However, I'm looking for a solution, perhaps modifying the code?
Here's the code:
Private Sub Command17_Click()
Dim strSQL As String

I have a database of experimental products. The database allows test technicians to input test information as well as product information (obviously in separate tables). Therefore before a tech logs test information, they have to first make sure the test product is in the database. They can do this by looking up the products that are in the database, and if the current one isn't they can input its information. In the lookup section you can also click on an individual product and lookup its test history.
What I am looking to do is add a button in the product information screen that allows the tech to open the test information input form with the test product information already loaded into the form. The product information portion of the test input form, is two combo boxes, one indicates the test products group and the other is the product number.
Looking up information on Google looks like i might need to use the OpenArgs function, however I have never used that before.
I get a negative value when i run the below expression.
The expression picks the month from the field txtmonth in form "frmYearToMonth" and search's the crosstab query "ctbYearToMonth" for the corresponding value in txtMonth.
=DLookUp([Forms]![frmYearToMonth]![txtMonth].[Value],"ctbYearToMonth","")
The value is correct but there is a negative sign before the value how do i eliminate the negative sign.
I have a form that displays a stock inventory, one of the fields I use is called [ItemCode].
On the Stock_Inventory form I have 10 command buttons that open other forms to display additional product information.
These were previously sub_forms that sat in a tabbed control box within the Stock_Inventory Form but as it now takes a while for the form to load (lots of queries running each time you search for a product) users are getting slightly frustrated.
So, what I decided to do, was move each subform from the tabbed control into a new form and open that form when it is needed by the user.
OK, when I open Stock_Inventory and search for a product [ItemCode = "ABC123"] and then want to see the Sales_History, I have to open my new form, Stock_Inventory_Sales_History, within this form are two sub-forms, each subform has a field called [ItemCode].
However, when Stock_Inventory_Sales_History opens it asks me to input the parameter [ItemCode] twice, I presume this is because the Stock_Inventory_Sales_History does not have a record source and that the subforms need [ItemCode="ABC123"] to run each query and return the data.
I need to pass the [ItemCode] from the Stock_Inventory form to each of the 2 Subforms that are on the Stock_Inventory_Sales_History form automatically.
I am making a Car Rental database on Access 2010, and I have a list of the dates available to rent a car in a table. I want to be able to check what dates are available and select a date for hire in a form.
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy form has a date field (with a default of today-105 days)( and can be updated by the user) which is part of the following query

I have a query with an expression as follows in criteria:
Between #1/1/2012# And #1/1/2012#
I want to pass into that expression a value from another table.
So, I created a table, DateRange, with fields StartDate and EndDate
Then, I modified my expression as follows:
Between [DateRange]![StartDate] And [DateRange]![EndDate]
Which, of course, didn't work, as the expression didn't know which 'row' to use.
Hi All,
I wonder if anyone can help me? I am at the stage now of building a query in design view. Rather than using a dynamic parameter field to capture a range of dates (between...[InputDate] And [InputDate]), I have created a text box in a form and want to pass the contents to my query. I have got this to work providing the variable that is passed is 'text'. I need to pass two dates though. When I put paths to the forms textbox in the 'Between' statement above, it just doesn't return any records. I think Access sees these text boxes as 'text' rather than 'dates'. I don't know how to change it so Access sees these as dates. Any ideas?

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have a control on a form which opens up Word and completes fields in the Word document with data on the form. It basically fills in an invoice form.
Everything works ok apart from when the invoice date and order date fields are passed. In the tables and in the forms, the dates are in Long Format ie '17 May 2005'. However, when they are apssed to the Word document, they are in a shortened format ie '17/05/05'. I am required to show the Long Format but am at a loss to find out how to achieve this.
I use bookmarks in the Word document and the code on my form relating to these fields are:
.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("OrdDate").Select
.Selection.Text = (CStr(Forms!frmOrders!OrdDate))
.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("OrdDateInv").Select
.Selection.Text = (CStr(Forms!frmOrders!OrdDateInv)
The Word document cannot be changed as far as I can see. I believe the answer could be to change the code above to change the format, but cannot get anything to work?
Your assistance would be helpful.
Thanks

I would like the user to be able to select the months he wishes in case they want to look at calender year, financial year or just a custom group of months. If I use the wizard and pick dates say the start and end of the year I get the following code in the row source of the chart control:
Code:
SELECT (Format([DatePaid],"MMM 'YY")),Sum([TotalPaid]) AS [SumOfTotalPaid] FROM [Q_AllCust_Gross] WHERE ([DatePaid] BETWEEN #01/01/12# AND #31/12/13#) GROUP BY (Year([DatePaid])*12 + Month([DatePaid])-1),(Format([DatePaid],"MMM 'YY"));
So I decided all I needed to do was replace the dates in the above code with my own global varible which i would pass custom dates into via a form. Which I called getds() and getde()
Code:
SELECT (Format([DatePaid],"MMM 'YY")),Sum([TotalPaid]) AS [SumOfTotalPaid] FROM [Q_AllCust_Gross] WHERE ([DatePaid] BETWEEN >=#getds()# And <=#getde()# ) GROUP BY (Year([DatePaid])*12 + Month([DatePaid])-1),(Format([DatePaid],"MMM 'YY"));
I'm having a rough time trying to figure out how to pass a date to an SQL statement that Excel VBA macro will run. The date is in a cell (A1) formatted as 'm/d/yyyy'. Let's say it's 2/1/2014. I want to run an SQL statement that retrieves data from a table where a field is greater than 'A1'. The table field is a date/time field and has values formatted as 'mm/dd/yyyy'.
I've tried various syntax on the Where but cannot get it to work.
sd = Range("A1")
SELECT [tn].[Date Submitted]
FROM[tn]
WHERE tn.[Date Submitted] > """ & sd & """
This results in the following where clause that does not work.
WHERE tn.[Date Submitted] > "2/1/2014"
