On my form I would like the user to be able to select a company, and once the company has been selected I would like a box to display all the contact information for the specific company. I would also like this box to record the contact information onto my database along with the other information that will be gathered on the same form.The Contacts and Companies are linked with the COSYSNO and CoSysNo fields.
View RepliesI'm building a new db for tracking tests/results, using Access 2007.
On this issue, I'm working with 2 tables, Sample and Equipment.
On a form to enter sample info, I have a combo box to select a piece of equipment.
When the equipment is selected, I need to have a sub-form populate with several fields of data from the equipment table, based on the equipment selected.
I'm not trying to save the equipment data again, I just need to display it, based on the equipment the user selects. This is just a kind of second check to remind the user what the equipment he's selected will do.
I am trying to get a form to display certain information based on the data in another box. I have to input some exam results and want to assign a level to them. So, if they score < 13, the result would read "Below Entry 3" if between 13 and 21 "Entry 3" etc If this was a spreadsheet I would use an if function, but I am not sure that I can do this here
View 14 Replies View RelatedOK, I have two forms:
Form 1: Courses
Form 2: Mark Grid
The user select the class from [Combo28] for the unit already in [Textbox named Unit] from Form 1 and wants to list all the students for that particular class and unit in form 2.
I have tried god knows how many different codes. I've been playing with:
DoCmd.OpenForm "Mark Grid", , , "[Text43]=" & Me![Combo28] & " AND [Text17]= '" & Me![Unit] & "'"
But with no luck.
I inquired on this original thread [URL] .... to hide/show fields based on two Yes/No dropdowns.
Summary:
1.
If "OtherUnivEmployeesInvolved" = "Yes":
The fields
"OtherUnivEmployeeFullName1"
"OtherUnivEmployeeFullName2"
"OtherUnivEmployeeFullName3" are shown.
If "OtherUnivEmployeesInvolved" = "No": These 3 fields are hidden.
2.
If "OutsideRepresentVendor" = "Yes":
The fields
"OutsideIndividualLastName"
"OutsideIndividualFirstName"
"OutsideIndividualCompanyName"
"OutsideCompanyStreetAddress"
"OutsideCompanyCity"
"OutsideCompanyState"
"OutsideCompanyZip" are shown.
If "OutsideRepresentVendor" = "No": These 7 fields are hidden.
I have this basic validation code when a user hits the save button:
Code:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim ctrl As Control
For Each ctrl In Me.Controls
If ctrl.Tag <> "skip" Then
[Code] .....
Within "1." - If yes is selected, I only need "OtherUnivEmployeeFullName1" required.
Usually skipping FullName2 and FullName3 would be easy using the ctrl.tag "skip" but I am already using the control to show hide these fields so how to do that.
Within "2." - If yes is selected, I need all 7 fields required.
So I need to figure out how to require fields based on those Yes/No selections because right now the form is checking every field regardless of the yes/no selections. I would also need to skip "OtherUnivEmployeeFullName2" and "OtherUnivEmployeeFullName3" everytime.
Hi,
First of all thanks to everyone who has answered my questions already, although I'm still having problems (more with my understanding and lack of Knowledge)
I'm creating a DB and I'm stuck, I'm trying to create a form that has three fields mailbox, applications & Drives. Each of these three fields need to be populated with many items. For example the mailbox field may have 5 different mailboxes required to be populated in this field.
What I want to happen is for the user to double click on the text box, then a new form containing a multi-select list box appears that you can select the items you need which in turn updates the role profile form. This is how I want it to work but if you have a better idea I'm all ears.
All I want is for someone to be able to view the role profile form and to be able to see what applications, drives and mailboxes are required for that role.
Basically I have no idea how you can get someone to choose several items and have that reflected and recorded in the required record.
I have attached what I have at the moment and any help or advice you can supply is appreciated.
Creating a form against a table with the following fields
EC
Project
Originator
Title
Full description
Effectivity
Etc....
Easy enough to create the Project combo box, problem comes with trying to systematically assign the next EC number.
When I select a Project from a combo box I want an EC assigned with format ECXXXX-### where XXXX is the project number from the combo box and ### is a sequential number. ECs should start at -001 for all projects.
Do I need to add an EC suffix field to hold just the ###? Then what?
it's easy to set up a form with a combobox that will list all records and moves the user to the selected record. But I can't figure out how to just show a selection of the records in this combobox, instead of all records.
So, to use the example used in most online tutorials: a drop down menu shows you all the names in a customer database. However, I'd like to have instead a dropdown menu with an overview of all surnames in the database and that I move to the first record with the selected surname.
I have a form with a listbox that allowed multiselection.
The listbox depends on the field "name"
And I have a table "names_should_be_selected" (fields: name, date ...)
It would be great if alle names in the listbox are selected when the name is in the table "names_should_be_selected".
I am trying to auto populate the text boxes in the form based on drop down from the combo box. As you can see in the form Frm_Input, this works fine for FL, but for some reason it will not populate for Skill, Role, FLM and Location. The table it is linking to is Tbl_Names. Why as I have changed the column source?
View 8 Replies View RelatedSo, I have a form and I need it so that when one field is selescted, the other 2 auto fill based on my selection. The form is based off of a Table, "TblClient" and The fields are ClientID (PK), InventoryType, Policy, and DueDate.
I want the user to type in the ClientID, and then once they select InventoryType, Policy and DueDate are autofilled.
I have another table, "TblData" that has the data for InventoryType and the coresponding Policy and DueDate associated with each one. So far, I have a combobox for InvnentoryType with a query for rowsource for InventoryType with the width of these additional columns to zero so they are not displayed in the combo. Then, I added unbound text boxes to my form (one for each additional field) and in the Control Source of those text boxes I put:
In the first unbound text box;
=[InventoyType].Column(2)
This worked for me, but now I realize that I want to give it the option that once these are autopopulated, they can be edited. For example, the policy most of the time is exactly the same for a certain inventory type, but sometimes, a word or two needs to be changed. Is this possible?

I am struggling to pull out a report based on the combo box selection. I have NOI database and want to pull out a report for a specific customer that how many NOIs are generated by this customer..
I have a separate table of customer and another table of NCRs and the customer information comes from customer table.
I have tried the below statement but gives me an error message:
code for Macro that pulls the report in click event:
[CustomerName]=[forms]![CustName]![combocust1]
do i need to mention the report as well in some where in report ?
I have two forms linked together.
frmMaterialRequest

- HandledBy to be unlocked if the MaterialRequest meets the "Status" of "frmMaterialRequest" which is "Approved".
I have "donations" form with a cbo called "DonationType".

I'm building a customer form using a list box of summary customer info on the left side of the form (CustId and Names) and customer details on the right hand side. I want the details shown on the right to be those for the customer selected in the list box on the left. I'm having problems getting the details to update when a different record in the list box is selected or clicked.
I originally set the data source for the detail records to the base customer table but couldn't work out how to update them when the list box was clicked!
I then tried creating a query with the select clause conditional on the list box (CustId = Me.qryContactDetails) and set the data control source for the detail record to the query (=[qryContactDetails]![FirstName]). The query works as expected but the field in the form just shows '#Name?'.
I tried adding a field requery on the List31_Click() event using Me.[FieldName].ReQuery but that didn't seem to change anything
I am having issues with my combo box populating values based on the selection from another combo box.
Database : contains 2 tables: Staff_List, Level_Type and a form called frm_Test
The first combobox cboLevel gets its value from the Level_Type table with the select statement SELECT [Level_Type].[ID], [Level_Type].[Level_Type] FROM level_Type;
The values to be displayed on the second combobox cbo_Name is expected to be dependent on the Level selection made from the first combobox i.e if Level 1 is selected in cboLevel then only Names of people in Level 1 will be displayed in second combobox.
The select statement I put there is SELECT Staff_List.ID, Staff_List.Staff_Name
FROM Staff_List
WHERE ((([Staff_List]![Level])=[Forms]![frm_test]![cboLevel]));
This is not displaying anything in the second combobox after I tried it in the Form view, just empty.
I have a form whereby a user for my database can be created. The fields required are listed below:
Payroll ID
Forename
Surname
Location
Manager
The last two fields are related to two other tables; tblLocation and tblManager, which are related to one another.Each location (there are three) can have more than one manager, however, a manager can be associated with only one location.I would like whomever is creating the user to only be able to select a Manager that works at a particular location, currently, I can select LocationID 1 and ManagerID 3, but ManagerID 3 works at LocationID 2.
How can I base the 'Manager' field in my form on the previous field's selection, e.g. 'Location'.Also would need to restrict the order in which the form's fields are enter, i.e., 'Location' before 'Manager'.
I have a form, where one field is a combo box
The combo box is two columns linked to at table,
task and sla
You pick the task, and it displays the task
What i need is, another field, to equal the SLA part of that task.
I have three different forms.
1. form is a Login form where i choose between: AA, HH or FA
After choosing on my first form second form opens.
Now my question - how can i do the following:
Based on the combobox in form 1, my button i form 2 will either open form 3, 4 or 5...
When I amend a combobox I want a label to adjust to reflect the current cbox input.
I have used the event change and done on change me.label = me.cbox.value and that works however the cbox has 2 columns. The unique category id and the category. So at moment if i choose the first option from cbox i get 1 appear in label as opposed to clematis for example.
What code to use to select the second column from cbox value.
I have a list box that is correctly listing resources from a table (tblResource). I would like to select one of the list box entry and run a query against the tblResource to show the information for that resource in a form. I have tried to use the lstindex with the control (lstResource) in the where clause of a query to accomplish this with no success.
View 5 Replies View RelatedIn one table i Have component group Id and the description as fields then another table has the sub groupings for each Component Group Id
Example
Component Group ID = 1 which is the primary key
Description = Keyboards
Component
Sub datasheet has Group ID = 1 foreign key
Descriptive Options = USB, Wireless, PS2, Serial
I have joined both of these in a query but what i want is the query when i link it to the combo box on the form i have to only show the Group ID once and not repeat it for as many times as each subdatasheet has records.
Example: When i click External Device I dont want to see the word Keyboard being repeated 4 times (which is because there are four subrecords/types of keyboards) Please Advise.
