I have access 2013 and this database is on a windows 8 OS,
I created 2 fields to sort data sets, and later discovered there were redundant and i could use values from a different linked table. After deleting those fields, when i open the form they still pop up as an "enter parameter value for *****" .
I have used the Data tab on a property sheet for a field in a report to build this expression (using expression builder) as the control source "=IIf([AllSchoolContacts].[Email]>" ",[AllSchoolContacts]![Email],[EmailAddress])" When I view the report I get the Enter Parameter Value dialog labelled AllSchoolContacts
I have added the fields to the expression using the expression builder the sources for the report are a table and a query in the REPORT.
The tables are AllSchoolContacts and Non Metro Query.
What I am trying to do is to have the record line show the email address for the organisation if the email address field in the AllSchoolContacts is blank.
Can I open a "Enter Parameter Value" dialog box to capture and use the input without running a query?
something like
Code:
ParaBox ("Enter the Hostname", vbEntParameterVal, "Hostname Required")
or
Code:
Set pDialog = Application.ParaValueDialog(mso?????)
I need a short string input from the users at application load, and I'd like to use the "Enter Parameter Value" dialog.I'm about to build a workaround that will invoke a SQL statement to save the entry to a temp table, but it'd be nice if I could just call up that dialog box and store the entry as a VBA variable.
I can not remove the Enter Parameter Value. In the attached date base, go to frmEvents, and double click on one of the shows, and you will get that error. I have deleted lines of code, text boxes, and anything else that is associated with the txtSearchS.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a form which contains a listbox sourced from a query and several text boxes where the user can enter filters for the query. The query has references back to the form for the criteria, i.e. the filter for "Company Name" is handled in the query criteria as
Code:
Like "*" & [Forms]![HooversProspects]![SearchText] & "*"
When i exit this form in my un-compiled version it does not pop up an "Enter Parameter" box, however, when i exit this form from the compiled version it pop ups the "Enter Parameter" box for every filter I have.
How i can fix this? Perhaps change the rowsource on the query to null upon exit?
I have attached a (slimmed down) Access 2007 database used for Asset Management and fault reporting. It opens on the main form which has a number of subforms and one sub-subform.
To make the form as user friendly as possible I am placing a number of unbound text boxes on the FormHeader to be used for search queries. The AfterUpdate event for each text box executes the necessary query, searching on the contents of the text box.
This works absolutely fine for the 'Colloquial Name' text box and associated field - this field is in the main table, RTI_Assets. The main form frmRTI_Assets is bound to this table. The query executed is called 'Colloquial Search'.
I cannot however get the 'Fault Reference' search to work on the field Supplier_Reference in the RTI_Fault table (the subform subfrmRTI_Fault is bound to this table). The query executed is called 'Fault Reference Search'.
There are 15 records in the assets table and 2 records in the faults table - with supplier references 555 and 101010.
I get prompted with Enter Parameter Value for the field RTI_Fault.Supplier_Reference if I enter 555 in the text box. Whatever I enter in this prompt I get returned to the first record.
I'm using Access 2013.
My scenario is: I have a Form to add Job Logs. This form has a cascading combo box with Clients filtering Projects. However, the Clients Combo Box is unbound, Projects is bound to the ClientProjects ID. I had to do this instead of have a key for both Clients and Projects in my Job Logs table due to the fact that Clients and Projects have a many-to-many relationship.
For Adding Job Logs this is fine.
My Problem: I have separate forms for viewing and editing Job Logs, and naturally, because Clients has no binding, every time I run these forms Access brings up the 'Enter Parameter Value' Message Box. I have tried a VB script to assign the Client ID based on the ClientProject ID value stored in the Projects combobox, on Form Load, however it still asks me to enter the Parameter Value and just writes the code in the combobox. Here's the Script:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.SelectClient = "SELECT Client ID, Client Name " & _
"FROM Client Projects Query " & _
"WHERE ClientProjectID = " & Me.SelectProject.Value
End Sub
Also, the Projects Combobox is also empty.
I have a lot of tables that need updating often, so I delete the old ones and re-import them then run the queries again. From time to time, I add / remove columns but in the case I removed columns that are NOT needed in the queries.
So, I ran the queries again and they run fine but it says "Enter Parameter Value" for a column that is no longer there. It's not in the SQL code either.
So where is it trying to get these columns from and how do I fix this?
I am having a problem updating a record on a table called BookInTable . The field I want to update is called Engineer and the record is found using the field Barcode. I have a form with 2 text boxes BarTxt and EngTxt as well as a button called SaveBtn. on the OnClick event of the SaveBtn I put the following code
Code:
Private Sub SaveBtn_Click()
If IsNull(Me![BarTxt]) Or (Me![BarTxt]) = "" Then
MsgBox "Please enter a value!", vbOKOnly, "Invalid Search Criterion!"
Me![BarTxt].SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
DoCmd.RunSQL "Update BookInTable SET Engineer = " & Me!EngTxt & " WHERE BarCode ='" & Me![BarTxt] & "'"
End Sub
But this is bringing up the enter Parameter value dialog box for whatever I type into EngTxt. If I enter text into that box and then click okay it then updates to the record. how can I stop the from enter Parameter value dialog box appearing?
i have a form with various tabs and a number of fields. If I could I would just select all fields to "required=Yes" in the table design mode. But some fields should only have data entered if another field has a certain value. So, I think I just want all visible fields for this data requirement (I set some fields to visible=false if I don't want them to have a value).
So far I tried to do this on click of the Submit Record button which I created using the "docmd.gotorecord, , acnewrec" statement, but I can't seem to make it work when combining it with if then msgbox statements. Plus I typed an if then statement for every required field.
Here's my code below:
Private Sub AddNewRecord_Click()
On Error GoTo Err1
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
Me.Label216.Visible = False
Me.CM_2A.Visible = False
[code]....
i wish to combine multiple fields (there are no fixed number of fields, they vary depending on the data, so i guess union queries are out of the question) into one large field. For example:
TABLE 1:
PNumber
PName
C1
C2
C3
1
AAA
0.1
0.2
0.3
2
BBB
0.4
0.5
0.6
So i wish to combine the fields C1, C2 and C3 into a larger fields containing all the data. So considering the example above, it should look like this:
TABLE 2:
PNumber
PName
C1+C2+C3
1
AAA
0.1
1
AAA
0.2
1
AAA
0.3
2
BBB
0.4
2
BBB
0.5
2
BBB
0.6
I plan on entering data into TABLE 1 using a form and running a query, or some code etc so that it looks like TABLE 2.
I had an existing database with 2329 records entered into it. All of the fields (220ish) were all in one table. Myself and my co-workers wanted to rebuild the database without losing the data. We wrote queries to transfer the data from the original database to the new database and split the data from the original 1 giant table to 9 smaller tables.
The transfer of data worked so I went to start making forms. When I went to add fields from different tables I had to built a relationship, which I did. All of the data that transferred over from the new database is in the form (now multiple forms linked by button) but I can't add new information. I get an error stating, "You cannot add or change a record because a related record is required in table ..." and the table referenced keeps changing.
I have two fields on the main form and I need a total count of records between the value of the two and then enter the total in a bound field on the main form
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form and it is related with a query and by clicking ok I got the required results in Access 97. But now I have converted to Access 2002 and whenever i enter values in the form and click ok I get a Dialog Box "Enter Dialog Box". I read MKB article but it did not help me at all. Please help me out I am not getting any idea at all to solve this problem?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have searched other threads and cannot find one that helps solve my problem. So, I hope someone can help.
I have a query which runs ok until it is filtered. I have tried using criteria to filter the info I need but this returns an 'Enter Parameter Value' message. Running the query without using criteria works okay but using a filter in the report itself returns a 'Data Mismatch' message.
The report filters fine on fields until it gets to one that has been changed from text to number. It also includes an Nz formula. The formula in the is field is: CLng(Nz([order_no],0)). Other fields related to this also appear to be affected.
I need the CLng formula as the field is needed to calculate other fields using a zero instead of a null which would otherwise cause an error. I was given the formula on this forum yesterday, (thanks Bob Larson and AlanJ10), which was great in solving the other issue but is this is what is affecting filtering, (ie. a confusion between text and number?!?!) I have also tried converting the result of the calculation I want to filter back into text using CStr but this does not make any difference.
I have checked the field names and also renamed fields that were 'Expr' (as in default names for calculated fields), and cannot see any problems.
Thanks
I have a query and one of the fields/headings i have it create is a "cost" total where it does a dlookup from a defaults table.
I then have a "listprice" which is antoher field in the querry of which the data table sits.
I want to take the [listprice] and minus the [cost] without re-creating the dlookup function...
I need this to help with an APR calulction using the RATE function which if i have it do all the dlookups it says I have exceeded the limitiation and will be trumcated. So if i use the name [cost] it works but i have to hit enter because it says "Enter Parameter Value".
Any ideas how to get around this?
Thank you.
I have the following query that gives me this halt. If I enter without responding to it it opens in Datasheet view as intended. It wants me to enter Query2.EmpID. This is my SQL statement.
SELECT qryPolicyByDriverName.CWSPolicy, qryPolicyByDriverName.EmpID, qryPolicyByDriverName.DriverName
FROM tblTrainingPoliciesNotCoveredDrivers INNER JOIN qryPolicyByDriverName ON tblTrainingPoliciesNotCoveredDrivers.CWSPolicy = qryPolicyByDriverName.CWSPolicy;
I don't know why this is happening. Thanks for looking at my problem.
ok im am not sure if this is in the right place but it seems to be a form problem.
i have a form that has a textbox(text1) which is used to enter a supplier name, the user then presses enter and another form opens up with all the supplier details.ok.
the code i have to do this is on the afterupdate of text1 which is unbound is
DoCmd.openform"SupplierDetails",,,"[Supplier Name]=" & Supplier name
when i use this code and the enter key is pressed an `Enter Parameter Value` dialog box appears with the supplier name under the blue title bar.if i then enter the supplier name again it opens the second form and displays all the details i want.
If i use the code
DoCmd.openform"SupplierDetails",,,"[Supplier Name]"= me.Supplier_name
it opens up the second form without the dialog box but it doesnt display any details.
is ther any way to adjust the first code so the dialog box isnt displayed and just goes straight to the second form and displaying the details.
i have gone through as many posts as i can but cant seem to find a fix.
any help would be appriciated thanks
Does anyone know if it's possible to edit the contents of the "Enter Parameter Value" Box...for starters, I'd like to delete the phrase "Please Enter Parameter Value" as it means nothing to most users of Access; also, I'd like to format the text that I've entered in the query itself, i.e. make it bold, increase the size of it.
Incidentally, I did go down the route of linking my query to a form but this caused problems as I want more that one user to be able to view their particular parameter value at the same time.
Many thanks
Hey all,
I have been looking everywhere on a search form and its related queries / tables for a missing value / error that causes this pop up:
Enter Parameter Value
=Date()
The report opens fine once that parameter error is cleared, and I cannot find what it is refering to at all. Does Access have any tools to help me track that down instead of blindly looking at every component piece by piece and hoping to stumble upon it?
I found the code below to clear P.V. errors (I think anyway - I would rather figure out what is causing it, but after way too much time spent on it, I still have had zero luck), and I have toyed with this and am having no luck:
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
On Error Resume Next
Dim ctl As Control
Dim var As Variant
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(Me.RecordSource)
For Each ctl In Me.Controls
var = rst(ctl.ControlSource)
If Err = 438 Then ' Control has no Controlsource-property
Err.Clear
Resume Next
End If
If Err = 3265 Then ' Controlsource doesn't exist in recordsource
ctl.ControlSource = ""
Err.Clear
Resume Next
End If
Next ctl
End Sub
As always, any and all help is very appreciated!
I am trying to create a report, filtered on a combo box(txtname).This combo box is having a list of names.I have one query(mainquery) based on a single table(maintbl).I created a blank form(GenerateReport) with abovementioned combo box(txtname) and a simple button, which will open a simple report.In mainquery, under names column i am defining the criteria:
[Forms]![GenerateReport]![txtname]
Report is being filtered accurately.But when I open query i receive error 'Enter parameter Value'
why I get a pop up asking for parameter value of fields I no longer have in my table? It says this when I open my form. I deleted the fields from my form but it's still asking for it.

I have a command button that opens a report.In one of my reports, this macro works:
Code:
="[eEmployeeID]=" & [eEmployeeID]
However, in another command button that should open another report, the code below does not seem to work:
Code:
="[echEmployeeID]=" & [eEmployeeID]
It just keeps giving me errors saying that there's a mismatch, etc. The field in my report that holds Employee ID is named echEmployeeID. If I write this code:
Code:
="[echEmployeeID]=" & "[eEmployeeID]"
it sort of works, but Access asks me to enter parameter value first before executing the where condition. I already tried to change [echEmployeeID] to [eEmployeeID] both in the source table, and the report but it just doesn't work.
I have a query with several different columns. One Column, CodeNum is built based on the values in Expr4. When I try to set a criteria for CodeNum (Like "8*"), and I run the query, I get a popup for Expr4 ("Enter Parameter Value | Expr4). I want to get all values of Expr4 when CodeNum starts with an 8.
CodeNum is built as follows: JCC: Left([Expr4],InStr([Expr4],"/")-1)
