Forms :: Field Not Saving

Dec 29, 2014

On a form there is a sub form.On the form I can only cycle through the records that have been created since the last time the form was opened. I cannot cycle through all records. Is this normal for a form. I assume some code might change this behavior.

More importantly when I look at the sub form in datasheet view I notice the first field of each record is not displayed (saved?) unless it is the very last record created. (This field has a SQL statement as a row source). Is this normal - or are the last 2 paragraphs descriptions of the same thing?

Why Is Currency Field Not Saving Pennies??

Mar 16, 2005

I have a currency field that is not saving pennies. (cents if you're Americian i suppose) :confused: if i put in pence it rounds it to the nearest pound.

I have tried setting the decimal places to "2", but that makes no difference :mad: :confused:

the table is called invoice

this also happens with the invoice form :mad: (i suspect for the same reason)

The database can be downloaded from:
http://www.tapestriesdirect.com/Garage.mdb (996KB)
or if you can unzip (who can't?!?)
http://www.tapestriesdirect.com/Garage.zip (86.1KB)

Cheers for any help

Saving A Form's Sort Field

Sep 16, 2005

I have a form that has a bunch of project information and scrolling buttons at the bottom to browse by next/last.

Right now the form is sorted by the ID associated with the project, which kinda sucks because they were and are not put in alphabetically.

I discovered if you right click on a field and click "Sort Ascending" or the opposite it works fine but when I open the database it is right back to normal ID sort

I have checked the Data and Other tabs but can't find anything with regards to this as well as I have tried sorting the actual table by name and that changed nothing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Saving Previous Unbound Field Values

Oct 5, 2005

hi

i have a form (A) with some unbound combo boxes which generate a subform (continuous) recordsource and the records output

after i filter the subform, i click on a subform record and open another form (B), and close form (A)

i do a bit of editing on form (B), then i click a button to go back to form (A).

is it possible to open the form (A), with the unbound combo boxes values at the same value as when form (A) was last closed, and as such the subform records output as per when the parent form (a) closed

if this is possible i can then have a button on form (B), to go to the next or previous record on the form (A) subform

apologies if this sounds confusing, many thanks in advance

Saving Long Text To A Memo Field

Oct 21, 2004

I'm trying to save the contents of a text box into a memo field in a table, but after my code runs i look in the field and it is cut off after a hundred characters or so, and the last few characters are garbled. This is the code:

Code: DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE orderheaders SET orderheaders.Comments = [Text127] WHERE orderheaders.OrderNumber = " & GlOrderNumber & ""

orderheaders = table
Text127 = text box
GlOrderNumber = integer variable

Is there a way to do this with only code? (I dont want to do it by binding the text box to the field)

Forms :: Closing All Forms And Saving Records First

Jul 14, 2015

I have had some issues caused by users exiting the database entirely when they realise that they have entered something incorrectly; this in turn has caused problems re-opening the half finished record (the last step of the record creation is to allocate it a unique reference number, which is then used to re-open the record for editing on a point and click form) - now, this is entirely my fault for expecting users to clear up behind them or to exit properly.

So, I am making some changes - when the dashboard form opens it removes the database window close button. I have a separate close button which has the following code:

Code:
Private Sub cmdGoodbye_Click()
Do While Forms.Count > 0
DoCmd.CLOSE acForm, Forms(0).Name, acSaveNo
Loop
DoCmd.Quit
End Sub

However, I would like to add a line to automatically save any records before closing each form - is this possible?

Saving Main & Sub Forms

Feb 15, 2005

Hello,

I have an Orders form (frmOrders) which has a subform (frmOrderDetails) detailing the individual order items. For example, there is one order which may consist of many items.

The problem I have experienced is that if someone completes frmOrderDetails first and then moves to frmOrders the records are not saved correctly. I know this is because the main form frmOrders has not been saved or had a field completed which would produce an OrderID which can be linked to frmOrderDetails.

Whilst I could say to users they must complete a certain field first, some will forget and I would like to protect against this.

Whilst the tab order will go to a field on frmOrders, is there a way of forcing users to complete this field before they enter frmOrderDetails.

Alternatively, is there a way of coding a command button to initiatve an OrderID.

Or do you have any other suggestionsm

Thank you.

Forms :: Saving Form For Later Use

Aug 14, 2013

I was just wondering if it's possible to save a form with all its settings and selections, and reload it later? So if a user is filling a form out with a few subforms which show a yes/no field in datasheet view, if they select a few options in the yes/no field and hit save, when they reload, it will bring up the form with everything they had selected when they hit save. I'd like to put Save and Load buttons on my form if it's possible.

Exit Forms Without Saving

Jan 10, 2012

Below is the code for exiting without saving. It works perfectly fine. I just want to know if I can change the MSGBOX message to something like "Are you sure you want to exit without saving?" instead of its default message - "Are you sure you want to delete this record? and also, right now, if I click NO when I am asked if I want to delete this record, it exit the form rather than staying in the same form. But how do I make it to STAY in the same form if I click NO.

Code:
Private Sub Command24_Click()
On Error GoTo Command24_Click_Err
On Error Resume Next
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdUndo

[code]....

Forms :: Subform Not Saving Automatically

Dec 23, 2013

I have one problem with subforms. I have one bound main form and two bound subforms: one subform is used to display existing records in datasheet view while another is used to enter new records in form view, but this latter subform for new records will not save automatically, nor will it save by using the me.refresh or me.dirty=true in the unload event of the subform control. The parent child relationship is intact. I can even see the primary key of the new row in the subform but it does not appear in the table that the subform is based on. This primary key adds by one automatically.

I have struggled and finally made work a combo box in the main form that finds existing records but also is able to add new records when the value entered is not on the list. Below is the code I used. I am not sure if this code is overriding Access's save ability of the subform?

Private Sub Combo316_AfterUpdate()
Dim n As String
gblvariable = cbobox
Me.Requery

n = DLookup("ID", "[Customers Extended]", "[Customer Name] = '" & Me!Combo316 & "'")

[Code] .....

Forms :: Saving Information In Subform?

Dec 3, 2013

I have a subform and I want to save the username to the bound table in this subform.

I've tried creating a textbox (CompBy) and then setting the default value to = Environ("UserName") but this doesn't work.

I've tried placing the following in the afterupdate event of the subform:
Me.CompBy = Environ("username")
DoCmd.Save
But this doesn't work either.

Forms :: Table Not Saving A Record

Jun 19, 2014

I have a field on a form [vin] that is based on a table, except i changed control source to a Dlookup to pull the vin number in from another table so i wont have to type it when i enter the record. However, this field is not saving when i save the record. I cannot just make a relationship because we reuse the same vehicle numbers, when we sell van 1 with vin 123, and replace it with a new van with Vin 456, we still call it van 1, so the unique vin is the only way to distinguish the two.

Forms :: Saving Form To Another Database?

Jul 5, 2013

I have tables, forms, and (will be) many data. But many data means that the file will be heavy (e.g. need a longer time to open it) and since it's located in server, meant that it'll also burden the servers when someone is accessing it. So, the idea is to make an access file consisted only of forms (and maybe tables), and another access file as the data-bank. And everytime the form is filled, it'll save the new data to the data-bank. So, it will be easier for the end-users to acess the form (e.g. saving time when opening the file).

My question is:

1) Is it really lessening the burden on server?

Because I think that even if the end-user only accessing the form, the form itself will be accessing the bank-data, and I do not see how it'll lessen all the process.

2) How to save to another database?

I used this command on VB:

Code:
Set db = CurrentDb

Can it be used to save the form's data to another access database? How?

Forms :: DLookup For Saving The Correct Value

Jun 4, 2013

I have an old Access 2000 database which needs some functionality update, and I can't get things working as they should.

The issue is related to frmOrderDetails form based on tblOrderDetails table, with following fields:

Order_ID
Product_ID
Ordered_Quantity
Product_Price

For entering ordered products there is a combo box for Product_ID which is displaying information about available products, their stock level, and price.

The Row source for Product_ID looks like this:

Code:
SELECT DISTINCTROW [qryStock4Orders].[Product_ID], [qryStock4Orders].[Product_name], [qryStock4Orders].[Available_quantity], [qryStock4Orders].[Selling_price] FROM qryStock4Orders ORDER BY [qryStock4Orders].[Product_name];

qryStock4Orders holds the calculated values of stock level (Available_quantity) for each product, grouped by Product_ID and Selling_Price. Selling_Price is from tblX.

Because I can buy one product from different suppliers (for different purchase prices) and purchase prices (so selling prices too) of the same product may vary over time, qryStock4Orders may list more then 1 available Selling_Price for that product, for example:

Product_ID Product_name Available_quantity Selling_Price
123 Product xyz 12 25$
123 Product xyz 42 29$
123 Product xyz 8 30$

What I want to achieve is to turn this code placed on After Update event of Product_ID combo box

Code:
Dim strFilter As String
strFilter = "Product_ID = " & Me!Product_ID
Me!Product_Price = DLookup("Selling_Price", "tblX", strFilter)

in something usable, in order to save into tblOrderDetails the selected Selling_Price and not one random Selling_Price from the 3 available above.

As the stock level is updated only after Ordered_Quantity and Product_Price are entered manually, what I'm trying to do with the code above is to automate the data input into Product_Price field of tblOrderDetails.

Access Command For Saving To 2 Indentical Forms

Oct 31, 2004

Hi i was wondering if anybody could offer some help to a problem i don't know how to solve. Some Background; i have two tables that are indentical called 'Order' and 'TempOrder', the purpose of this is that one saves the records unless manually deleted later, whilst the other is designed to have its own form, which has a print button which also deletes the record. Now i can create the data entry form to save the details in order, however i also need it to save the details into temporder, which i just cant seem to do, as i do not know the code, it appears relatively simple just i cannot seem to do it, i have tried a macro to save the record into the 'tempOrder' table but this does not work, any help would be much apprieciated.

Forms :: How To Close A Form Without Saving A New Record

Feb 28, 2014

I have a form frmAddNewProject that is a Data Entry form.When you click Add Project on the form, it creates folders and copies files to a location and also creates new record(s) in the ProjectT table with appropriate information.Here is my code:

Code:

Private Sub cmdAdd_Click()
Dim FSO As Object
Dim FromPath As String
Dim ToPath As String
Dim FolderPath As String
Dim strType As String
Dim strYear As String
Dim strGPN As String

[code]....

Everything works fine till here. Now I would like to close the form but closing it gives me an additional empty record.

Code:

Dim ctl As Control
On Error Resume Next
For Each ctl In Me.Controls
ctl = ctl.DefaultValue
Next
Set ctl = Nothing

to remove all values, but then it just adds an empty record.Is there a way to close that form without removing my legitimate new records and without adding empty ones?
