Trying to filter a form based on a field with wildcard. My form has a txtCustFilter control where a customer's name can be entered in part or whole. The Customer's name is in PCCustomerName
This code works but, I'd like to make it case insensitive
Dim strFilter As String strFilter = "[PCCUSTOMERNAME] LIKE ""*" & Me.txtCustFilter & "*""" Me.Filter = strFilter Me.FilterOn = True
I have a form which uses a parameter based query to present an individual senior doctor with a list of names for of individual juniors to provide an assessment report on. When the first form opens the user enters their RespondentID.
Once senior has decided which names to comment on I have another form which has the questions to be answered which is opened by clicking a button on the first form.
How can I pass a parameter from the first form to the second so that only the records relevant to that senior doctor are displayed? The underlying table has 60 senior doctors and 20 junior doctors. The senior doctor is identified by the field RespondentID in the first form. I've tried putting a WhereClause in the FormOpen command but I still get a dialogue box asking for the parameter RespondentID when the second form is opened.
I have a button that opens a second form and filters that form based on a text box on the first form(which remains open). the problem is that it does not filter the second form unless the second form is already loaded for some reason.
For example if i click on the button it opens the form Unfiltered then i go back to the previous form without closing the first form, click the button again and it is then filtered .
I attached the screen shot of the macro for the button and there are no other events on the second form.
i have one form filtered based on a field value, now i want to open another form which has only the same member ID but not the actual field on what the first form had been filtered (so i cannot just use the same filter) , so what i want to do is that the 2nd form should only show the members which are in the first form.
Hi. I have an Order form that is based on an Order table. In this form there are also a number of text boxes (not bound to table) with calculations, and one final text box with a deadline based on these calculations. Is it possible to filter this form based on the deadline? I can do this by making the form based on a query, but then again I'm not able to edit the information in the form.... Please anyone???
I have been building a database for use in a charity shop and am struggling with an issue regarding one of the forms.
I currently have a form which displays all expenses from the shop. I have added a combo box to the top of this form which allows users to filter records based on an expense ID Code. It all works fine but I would like to be able to add a start date and end date box to the form also so that records can be shown between two dates.
I have tried adding parameter boxes to the query which runs the form (which works) but the issue I am having is that when a new id is selected from the combo box the parameter boxes pop up again asking me for start date and end date again. This happens every time a new combo box id is selected.
I think the way resolve this issue may be to add a start date and end date box to the form but I don't know how to implement this.
Please see the attached files for images of what I currently have. The forum won't let me post images directly here until I have 10 posts so I have had to attach the files instead.:

I have a form that is filter based on a combo box. I would like to add another filter for date. but the code I'm using for the first combo box doesn't work for date.
the code is:
Sub SetFilter() Dim LSQL As String LSQL = "select * from Preventive_Q_View" LSQL = LSQL & " where Item_Name = '" & Combo206 & "'" Form_Preventive_View.RecordSource = LSQL End Sub
How do I modify this code to work with the date combo box? Also, is there a way to get both filters to work together, as in filter based on the first combo OR the second combo, OR both?
I have one table containing name of restaurant with its address etc. Then i created another table to list out the restaurant workers names and details. Just as an example,
Table:Restaurant Restaurant name Address line 1 Address line 2 Restaurant # Website
Table:StaffContact Staff Role Name speciality email phone
I have the main form that has all the restaurant details only. And i have another form containing the Staff information. Please note the two table have a relation and it works well.
Now to make it user friendly(basically easier for the lazy ones), I dragged the staff contact form on to my main form and displayed it as a datasheet(basically a sub form).
Now, my boss does not want users to add/delete on this sub form(datasheet). So,he wants me to create buttons to open new record of staff for each restaurant(new form)
My issue is with opening a new record to enter a new person to the staff list and give them a role as well in form view.The new form has
So i ran a Macro, with open form with Where condition
I have a filter on a form : There is a text box (txtSearchP) where the user will enter their search term then click button to apply the filter:
Private Sub cmdSearchP_Click() ' Filter by Programme Description Me.Filter = [Programme_Desc] Like "*" & Me.txtSearchP & "*" Me.FilterOn = True Me.Requery End Sub
This works fine but actually I want to search two fields for the text entered in txtSearchP [Programme_Desc] OR [Programme]
I've tried this but it doesn't work:
Private Sub cmdSearchP_Click() ' Filter by Programme Code and Description Me.Filter = [Programme_Desc] Like "*" & Me.txtSearchP & "*" OR [Programme] Like "*" & Me.txtSearchP & "*" Me.FilterOn = True Me.Requery End Sub
I know I could give the users two text boxes and two Buttons one for each and this would work but I don't want the form to be cluttered.
I have a Main form with a sub form.The main form is a customer record (form view), and the sub form is all other customers (same fields) datasheet view.I have a navigation bar to filter (using different queries) the results in the sub form
same postcode Same company (different location) everyone except Main form customer
I cannot get a different filter (Query) to show only customers whose name begins with the same letter as the customer in the main form?I have been trying Like but think I am referencing it wrong, as it prompts me to enter a value rather than using the value in the field in the main form.This is what I have in the query (of the subform)
Customer ID: <>[Forms]![NewAllCustomerListF]![CustomerID] Customer Name: Like "[Forms]![NewAllCustomerListF]![CustomerName]" & "*"
I have my Assets form and the primary key is the ChargerID, in this form I have an "Add New Job For This Asset" button, which opens up the Jobs form at a new record.
How do I make it so that the ChargerID field is automatically filled with whatever the previous record was instead of being blank.
For example if I have Charger12345 open in the Asset form, I'd like to click the Add New Job button and it automatically have Charger12345 in the ChargerID field of the Jobs form.
I am making a very simple 'registration' database for a children's event in a couple of weeks.I the table/form there is a checkbox field called 'consent' which, if checked, indicates that a child can leave the event without parental consent.
There is a report printed on each child (a registration page which the leaders get a copy of). I would like on this report a 'red box' to appear if the child cannot leave without permission (i.e. the consent box is not checked). I would also like this 'red box' to appear on the form. I had thought of doing it this way - but I'm not sure if it's the best, or if it's possible:
Have a field in my table called 'consentindicator'. When the 'consent' box is checked, there is a period ('.') placed into the 'consentindicator' field. It is set to turn red when a period is present. That way, when the consent box is checked, a get a red 'box'.
I want to add to every row a combobox with a list of towns depending on the value in the field Country ID.how do I filter the comboboxes individually based on a value in another field on the same row?
My database is using data that is entered by the employees to generate Quotations. There is one important piece of information that will not be entered by the employee. The quotes involve metals which are priced based on market price and weight. I am planning on integrating a data feed with this information, but for now I want to enter it manually in a table. The price depends on two combo boxes one for "Precious or Base Metals", and one for "Metal Name". I want those two values to call the price from a table, and automatically fill in the "Market Price" field in the form.Also once that is in I would like to do my calculations. I am planning on using queries to do these. Is that the correct method?
I have a simple add form that will add an entry to one of two tables: Box 1-1, or Box 1-2.
They have the exact same fields. In the add form, I want the user to specify a Rack field and a Box field. Box 1-1 would be Rack 1, Box 1. Box 1-2 would be Rack 1, Box 2 (there will be more tables later, but just using two for now until I get it working).
But right now my form always adds to the table Box 1-1 - I can't get it to switch.
I've added the code I have so far below. The first part is what I'm having trouble with, the second part just uses a Submit button to add a new record - I'm just including it in case it's interfering in some way I'm not seeing. I'm running Access 2007.
Code: Private Sub Switch_BeforeUpdate() If Me.Rack.Value = "1" And Me.Box.Value = "1" Then Form_Add.RecordSource = "Box 1-1" ElseIf Me.Rack.Value = "1" And Me.Box.Value = "2" Then Form_Add.RecordSource = "Box 1-2"
I am working on a DB that will have multiple reports available. What I would like to do is to have a form that lists the reports available from a reports table. In other words, each detail line of the form will contain a report. I would like to have a button or link placed in the detail line that will open the report for that detail line when it is clicked. This will keep me from having to add a new line to a static form every time I add a report.
I have tried the DoCmd.OpenReport command, but it requires a report name, and I can't find where you can place a field name variable in the command line. I have tried other things I have seen here, but none have done the trick.
I have a Customers table and an Orders table. My Customers table is a bit different than the norm because I couldn't figure out any other way to do this.
My client's customers are either businesses (companies) with a contact person, or individual customers. So, in the Customers table, I have the following fields (there are others but do not apply to my problem):
Customer ID Company Contact Customer
So, if it is a company the data entry person would enter the company name and the full name (EX: Doe, John) in the contact field, but if it is an individual customer, then they would leave Company and Contact blank and enter just the Customer name (Ex: Doe, Jane).
So, in the Orders table, I have combo boxes for look ups for the fields Company and Customer.
That works okay, but I would really like for the Customer ID to post into a text box once the Company or Customer has been selected. In other words, the input person would enter the name, then it would show that Customer's ID #.
Basically I have a Customer Form, which I have a New party button on it,this button opens up the party form to a new party, what I would like it to do is open up a new party but make the new party for the customer I had selected in the previous form.I have tried the GoTo macro's but cannot seem to get it to work.
I am thinking on clicking the button it will need to get the Customer ID, and then open the party form, create new party, and paste in the Customer ID, which then updates the Name - Date - Address - Company Fields.
I am wanting to grey out/disable a field on a form based on entries in two other fields being the same. One of these fields that contains the data to be referenced in on a sub-form.The form is called 'Payment_Information-Form', the field to be greyed out/disabled is called 'SUF A Paid?'
The fields that are being referenced are: 'Set up fee in s (SUF) Recrt Restriction A <=' which is on the main form, and 'SUF_Letter' which is on a sub-form (within the main form). The sub-form is called 'Costings_11_Previously_Paid_SUF subform'.If 'Set up fee in s (SUF) Recrt Restriction A <=' equals 'SUF_Letter' then grey out.I tried the following formula in both the On Current and After Update sections but it hasn't work.
=IIf([Forms]![Payment_Information-Form]![Costings_11_Previously_Paid_SUF subform].[Form]![SUF_Letter]=[Set up fee in s (SUF) Recrt Restriction A <=],[SUF A Paid?].[Visible]=True,[SUF A Paid?].[Visible]=False)
My DB has many (!) forms that are based on Crosstabs queries. The headers are years, and therefore my formfields has controlsources like 2014, 2015 and so on.
Example:
The table it comes from looks something like this:
The crosstab then takes the EndYear as a coloumn header. Then my forms use these fields, now named 2014, 2015, 2016 .... and give me a nice looking table showing the accumulated "end" for multiple projects.
The problem is when the year changes after 31/12, all fields must manually be changed. This means I have to manually change 2014 to 2015, 2015 to 2016 and so on in all of my formsfields controllsource.
I have played around to find a way to change the source of the field, and hoped I could say something like =year(now()) and for the next year say =year(now())+1 but this only returns that year as a value, and not as a controlsource...
The query functions nicely (ive changed the system time, and it has no issues with this structure), but the forms source is still in the previous year, and returns and error (of course).
When the year changes past new years eve, so will the headers (fieldname) change... but how to make the form change fieldsource?
I need to open my form with a filter attached that is based on criteria already existing in the subform. I've tried putting the following code in the OnOpen event of my main form : Code:Dim stDocName As StringDim stLinkCriteria As StringstDocName = "Campaign Form"stLinkCriteria = "[Campaign - Last Contact Status subform].Form![Communication Response] in ("2","4","10","11")"DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, acNormal, , stLinkCriteria, acFormPropertySettings, acWindowNormal
Basically I want to open my main form (Campaign Form) and only show records where the "Communication Response" is 2,4,10 or 11(a variable on my subform "Campaign - Last Contact Status subform"). Which in itself is a problem because I can't seem to code all of these variables- it will only accept one.
When I run the above code I am getting asked to enter a parameter value for "Campaign - Last Contact Status". I'm not too sure where this is picking this up from or how to fix it. I've even tried to run this based on the underlying query of "Campaign - Last Contact Status subform" with the same results.
Can someone help me? All I want to do is open the form based on the criteria I specify which is contained in a field in the subform. It doesn't sound that hard but it seems to be getting the better of me!
When I'm applying a sort and filter in a form, Access is updating the Filter and Order By properties of the form, so that it is possible to re-use in conjunction with Filter on Load and Order By on Load properties. However, a consequence of this is that when the form is closed, it prompts the user whether they want to save the design of the form. I want to circumvent this as I don't want to re-use the sort and filter and I don't want to be prompted to save the design of the form.
Although I can circumvent this by closing the form using a method that doesn't prompt for saving, the additional complication here is that the form in question is in the Navigation subform of a Navigation Control. Hence when I click on a another Navigation button, it (not me) closes my current form and hence prompts me whether I want to save the design of the form (if I have been sorting and/or filtering). I can't see how to circumvent this and the prompting is resulting in unacceptable usability.
I have a Master form which includes tabs within the tab I have subforms. I am looking for a way to filter my master form based on data found within my sub form.
I have a check box within one of the sub-forms called "softwareInstall" if yes the box would be checked. I want to filter all customers within my main form with a check box in my main form to turn on and show all customer who has this box check within the subform SoftwareInstall=True.
