Forms :: Displaying Tickmark For Each Record In One Of The Columns
Feb 14, 2014
I am attempting to display a tickmark (wingdings character 0252) . I have two columns with textbox controls. In each I display a -1 or Null, and the format is ; [Green] (corresponding to the 0252)
For each record, there can be a tickmark in one (and only one) of the columns, or no tickmark in any columns. The tickmark is set by clicking on the control. Unfortunately, the entire square occupied by the tickmark is selected, so it looks weird, so long as the cursor remains there. I want to get rid of that (it goes away by itself if I click on the other record).
I have tried to set the Txtbox.SelSTart=0 or Textbox.SelLength=0 , or change the value from -1 to 1 (that influences which position in the format is affected) ...but a postbox character keeps croppping up in theses instances.

I have a multiple select combobox which shows up in many forms- SubCategories. The user can pick from a list of 154 SubCategories.
Everything is working properly however it is difficult for the user to scroll through the entire list.
My question: Is there a way to represent this ONE field in multiple columns in the combobox?
I know how to add columns for multiple fields to my combobox, but this is one field.
Maybe there is a better way to represent the data... a subform would have the same issue.

how to make a text box on a form display the record number so it can be seen along side record selector buttons.
I'd rather have my own then use the record selector option that displays at the bottom of the form when enabled.

I have a form with some tabbed subforms. Master/Child links are set, everything is bound. When I open the form to display records (based on search criteria on the switchboard form), let's say it returns 6 records for someone, they are sorted by date and so the newest would display first.
But when it opens, the main form shows all the appropriate data, but the subforms don't show at all. Just a blank box where the subform control should be. If I click next record (and any thereafter) they all display correctly immediately. Now if I go to the 2nd record, then back to my 1st record, it displays correctly.
I'm guessing it must have something to do with the onLoad event of either the main form or subforms, but I don't have anything in there for OnLoad....no code at all.

The main Form :" frmtblAnagraficatest"
display correct data from tblAnagrafica,
BUT the subform: "frmTabellaPIP Sottomascheratest" does not display data from TabellaPIP.
Relations are many -to-many but, because it's my first building database, can be incorrect.

I have created a navigation form with quick access to the forms and reports I use most often. The Navigation Form (which I named Control Panel) automatically lands on the Tutor_Information Form on a current record. However, I would like for it to open to a blank form instead while retaining the ability to access the current records. Individually, when opening the Tutor_Information Form from the Navigation Panel, it opens to a blank record.
I used a 2 step macro
1. OpenForm
2. GoToRecord - New.
How can I make it do the same thing when landing on the Navigation Form (Control Panel)? I am using Access 2013.

Hi, I have a combo with the following columns listed:
ProjectID
Project Number
Project Name
The width of the bound column (column 1) is 0, and Project Number and Project Name list properly in the combo box. However, on selection, only Project Number (Column 2) jumps into the box. Is there any way of getting the third column (Project Name) to also display after the selection has been made?
Many thanks

I have 3 queries named Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth, Mech Final Equipment 6 Mth, and Mech Historical Final Equipment.They all have two fields-Final equipment and Sum of Sum of Down (calculating the number of minutes each piece of equipment was down in the time period selected).
My ultimate goal is to join the three queries to display a pivot chart that uses the Final Equipment as the category field and 3 Mth, 6Mth, and Historical as seperate data fields.What I have is a join query (Which I have named Mech Final Equipment H63 Joined)
Using this SQL:
Code:
SELECT DISTINCTROW [Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth].[Final Equipment], Sum([Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth].[Sum Of Down]) AS Duration
FROM [Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth]
GROUP BY [Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth].[Final Equipment]
UNION
[code]...
Which returns a table that looks like this:
Final Equipment, Duration
Ancillary Equipment, 225
Ancillary Equipment, 401
Ancillary Equipment, 1787
Brush Unit , 1252
Brush Unit , 2519
Brush Unit , 8004
And so on.What I need the table to look like is this
Final Equipment, 3 Mth, 6 Mth, Historical
Ancillary Equipment, 225, 401, 1787
Brush Unit, 1252, 2519, 8004
And so on, like a cross tab.I tried to do a crosstab query but I don't have enough fields.

Hi guys
I have a problem. In form view, if you use the mouse wheel to scroll down, you switch to the next record. Is there a way I can disable this? Even if I switch the RecordSelectors and NavigationButtons properties in the Form Selector to "No", it still goes to the next record as soon as you scroll down with the mouse wheel. I want the Form to scroll down if you use the mouse wheel, not go to the next record as it does now.
Please help. I don't know what to do. Thank you in advance.

End Sub
When I doubleclick on certain records on the subform it will open the form TRIP NV diplaying me the linked record, on other records it will open the form TRIP NV but a blank form with no records displayed!
Why is this happening?

Hi, I am a complete newbie to Access. I want to be able to double click on the field in the table, form or a query and have, as a result, another form pop-up with all the data from that record displayed. I have tried macros, but the doubleclick property only has things like goto first, last, etc. records. and always brings the first record in the table. Any hep in the right direction is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have a report, which opens a dynamic search form (built off of John Big Booty's code from this site). The form opens, and works as expected.During the dynamic search form testing, I created an 'OK' button that opens another form to display the record, but the dynamic search was opened first.
I would like to reprogram the button to display the selected record in the report which opened it.How can I get the selected record to display in the already open report?

While creating a report , I find that the number of fields are more for a single record, and cannot be accommodated in a single sheet of A4 size paper(Landscape). So what is to be done so that all the fields can be incorporated in the report for a single record on the same page? I don't mind if all the fields for the single record are displayed in two/three lines on the same page.

I am having bit of confusion in trying to come up with a code that will assist in completing my database display (for a warehouse rental database).
My aim is to have a form display a layout of the site and overlay an image over a store if its occupied else leave the image off if otherwise.
I have everything in my table plus a checkbox field that states if vacancy is "yes' or "no"; say I have 60 stores to rent and they have specific names (unit = A09) and I already 'drew' the layout on a form (all 60 of them) with renaming the boxes for each unit (Name = A09).
How can I program a code that upon opening the form it will like
If 'Box Name on form' = 'unit name on table' AND 'Vacancy = No' then 'redbox.visible = yes'

I have a form (Student Details) that has an unbound lookup box using a query to select a student. The lookup has the hidden Student ID autonumber key field plus Class Number, Last Name, First Name, Status, sorted by Class Number (descending), Last Name, First Name.
The form record source is a similar but unsorted query.
There are nearly 1000 student records. The form has pages (tabs). The lookup box is in the form header. There are dozens of fields in the 1st Page (General) including an picture (attachment, not hyperlink) field holding a photo of the student, the other 6 pages have less.
When you select a student via the look up, at least one sometimes more students "flash" before it displays the one you want, which seems to display twice before it stops.
I deleted the picture field to see what difference that made, because it seemed to do the most flashing, and indeed, without that field you go right to the record. I looked at the Student table indexes and it seems that field type is not index-able, which is understandable.
Is there any way to improve this with still leaving the photos as attachments? Some thoughts:
It improves if it is displayed first as an Icon or Paper Clip, and probably would if a hyperlink field, but we like to have the picture displayed and not have to open the link to see it nor worry about the location changing invalidating a link. It seems that if the record was displayed with the picture field only filled after all the other fields were filled it would make for a better impression.
Can an On Load form event VBA or Macro be written that either hold the picture back until the rest of the fields are displayed or if an icon or changed to a hyperlink to open. Would it work if the pictures were attached to a separate joined table?

I would like to compare the values of several columns in the same record and remove any duplicates. So...
ID | Col1 | Col2 | Col3 | Col4 | Col5
-------------------------------------------
1 | A | B | C | D | C
2 | C | C | C | D | D
3 | A | A | B | A | D
In the above example I would remove one of the Cs in row 1.
Two Cs and one D in row 2 and two As in row 3.
At the moment I have the value of each column stored in a variable and each one is compared against each other using LOTS of If statements.

I have written a DB for work that collects information on a range of events (eg safety incidents, improvement suggestions, etc) and reports on them. I am now trying to improve the security & integrity of the data by restricting user access to menus.
I can use the start up options to turn off menus, etc but want to allow users to use the default right click menu in forms to sort & filter the forms. But I don;t want users to have access to the other default menus (eg the one containg form deisgn). Is there a way to just select this particular menu to pop up on a right click?
Because I have not been able to find an answer to this I tried designing my own toolbar containig the sort & filter commands I needed. I created a custom tool bar using the menu/customisze options and called it "tbarSortFilt".
As soon as I place it in the menu bar it goes "dim" and I cannot select the options. When I over ride the start up options ("shift" key) and then right click in teh form both the default menu come up (as expected) and the "tbarSortFilt" menu lights up -- but is not active.
I have also tried
DoCmd.ShowToolbar "tbarSortFilt", acToolbarYes
to no avail.
Clearly there is something pretty basic I am not doing. How can I use the strat up options to turn off toolbars and then show AND activate my customized toolbar?
Regards Stephen :confused:

I have a table that holds the ID to another table where I pick up the name to display instead of the ID. If a name is added or changed then the ID needs to be added/updated.
The name (and other details) are displayed on a form from 1 to ,many rows.The field that holds the name is a combo box and I can change that field by selecting the bane from the combo box or typing the name in. What I want to be able to do is type in the ID (I'm actually scanning it in from a bar code) but display the name. How do I do this.
As I say this currently works if name is typed (Or scanned in)and the ID is written to the table.On the data tab for the field I have as the control source the ID itself. In the Row Source I have select 5 fields from the second table which includes the ID and name (both from 2nd table). The Bound Column is set to 1. In the Format tab Column count is 5 and column widths is set to 0cm;3cm;0cm;0cm;0cm. This allows the name (2nd column) to be displayed. But the 1st column to be stored on table 1. However I can't scan in the ID which I want.

I have a DVD movie table and a lookup table for the movie genre. One selects the movie genre by opening a combo box which has the values. (Movie typeID which is a number and MovieType which is a text.The records are being displayed in a Access 2010 split form with the datasheet on the left. Any editing can be done on the right or the single record side.I would like to only display the genre for that movie as opposed to the combo box which can be edited and next to it have a command button to open a form in order to change or select the genre for the existing or new DVD.So, I guess what I'm asking is how do I display the genre fo that particular movie?

Database description
I have one to many relationships between tables related with PersonID. From the entry forms I enter data and there is another form to search data. The data search form displays some 5 fields from different tables: first name, last name, phone, email...
Problem description
When I enter new data in all the above named fields, then the search engine can find and display the new record. However, when I leave blank some of the fields, let's say, the phone field, then the search does not display the entire row, although the first and last name, for example, exist in the appropriate table.
I would appreciate, if anyone could help me to solve the problem.
Thanks

I have a database which creates hyperlinks to a network folder full of images (too many to attach to the database) but I can't figure out an easy way to show those images in forms and reports. I think I'm 90% there, looking online I figured out that if i create a text field (not a hyperlink) in the original table and copy over the hyperlink text, I can use this as the control source of an image control (with the picture type set to 'linked').
That works fine, but I would still have to manually copy over the URL every time I link to a new picture - so is there a way i can get this to feed through automatically?I've tried a couple of ways already (calculated fields, 'set value' macros) but the problem is anytime I try to get clever, Access doubles the link address, making it utterly useless as a control source.
So for example, i ran a macro to set the text field value to equal the hyperlink value of c:mydocspicture.jpg,
and the result looked like this c:mydocspicture.jpg#c:mydocspicture.jpg#Or maybe there are functions similar to excel (like 'left' and 'len') which i can use to extract the right part of the hyperlink.

I have been given a form that you pass a parameter into and on the basis of this it performs certain amendments to the particular data AND also runs 2 stored procedures on this data. I need to get the data to display on the form so that the user can visually verify if it is the correct data and then they will on click to execute the amendments and stored procedures.
I cannot get the data to display on the screen? I have tried to create a variable in the VBA code to store the data in and then used a message box to try to display it but to no avail?

I've created a form with a combo box to allow users to set the Manager of an employee. I've set the control source for the combo box to the Managers table that contains a primary key and the manager's name.
I've set the bound column to 1, the column count to 2, the column widths to 1;2 (I want to show both columns in the drop down because users can identify managers by either their name or Manager ID).After updating the combo box, the Manager ID shows rather than the Manager Name. Is there a way to have the Manager name show instead of the Manager ID without setting the column widths to 0;2?
