I have a form with two fields in the header meant for filtering the form data - SelectAtty and SelectClient. The query under the form is restricted based on the values selected. I also have a "button" that if clicked should filter the records (probably unnecessary but I thought it would be clearer for the user). I'm seeing two issues. Sometimes when I select a value - it doesn't appear to apply it to the query at all. When I add msgbox statements to try to see what is happening, the problem goes away (weird right). Also I run into a "no current record" error when it requeries. Mostly this seems to happen when I have two events that fire in a row and both requery. The event procedures are below and you can see where I put my debugging msgbox statements.
1. No current record fires consistently on the filter image click and (I think) always when it requeries twice (like I changed the value and then clicked on the filter).
2. The fact that sometimes the selections are picked up in the query and sometimes aren't I have no good pattern for other than msgboxes seem to actually fix it - as if it forces access to look at the values and they they show up.
Private Sub FilterImage_Click()
MsgBox "filter: " & Form.CurrentRecord
MsgBox Form.RecordSource
I'm trying to make a form to filter a table and open a data entry form with the filtered data ready for editing. I've got it working when filtering a 1 field but I'd like to filter the data by 3 fields and i can't get it right. the code I'm trying to use is :
Code: DoCmd.OpenForm "Main", , , "[Admin District]='Corby'" And "[AgeRange]='31 - 50'" And "[Gender]='Male'"
it works fine when just filtering one field like this:-
I am totally new in Access VBA, plus I am trying to learn during my free time, I am able to create the following Unmatched query (using Wizard), but now I am trying to learn using VBA code
Table1 Curr CurrName CAD Canadian Dollar USD American Dollar GBP British Pound AUD Australian Dollar EUR Euro
Now, what I am trying to Learn Filtering Data at Form Level
-Combo Box - Select Year (I am able to Learn using VBA code- Working Perfectly) -ListBox1 - Show Currcode for selected year (I am able to learn using VBA code and working perfectly) -ListBox2 - Would like to see Unmatched currcode from Table One (unable to figure-it-out how this will work in VBA)
E.g. ComboBox = 2013 ListBox1 = (CAD,USD,EUR) ListBox2 = should show (GBP and AUD).
I am using master/child form for data entry for packings and the details for this packings (i.e. the products inside a packing is entered in subform and packing master is entered in main form ).
In the detail subform i use a productId field which has look up from 1000 products , so i want to filter that particular combo box based on different types from product master ( from which it choses the products).
How many ways are there to filter that combo box based on different types ( which i have in product master as type,design,material etc).One way of which is combo boxes on main form.
Is it possible to use Filter option in my form without using Query Wizard? - So that the user would be able to edit and change the other field on the same form
I am trying to filter data in a table using vba where I have a split form setup. My goal is to filter data where the user can input a character such as "a" for the "FirstName" field and have results from the table filtered with persons first name that starts with "a". Here is my code so far one of the text boxes.
Private Sub txtFirstName_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
If Me.Filter = "" Then 'Compares the values that begin with the input values in txtFirstName 'text box from the table field name FirstName Me.Filter = FirstName & " LIKE '" & txtFirstName & "*'"
[Code] .....
I get a error in the else statement and please note that I am linking this form to an sql server so I can not delete or modify existing data in the table.
I have a query that creates counts of fields based on the data in other fields, basically it tells me that in a table there are two entries with value ABC????? and three of DEF????? , the query works perfectly.
When I create a form to display this data and base the form on the Query I keep getting a message box asking for the ID (key field) from the base table.
If I type * in the box (to denote all values) and press enter I get the results expected.
I am a student and I've just started to work with the MS Access and databases.
I am wondering if it is possible to filter the fields of table and display only specific information from that specific field. For example: The database (*.mdb file) is created automatically by the software (EPLAN Electric).
There are columns with fields like "de_DE@Verbindungsleitung;pl_PL@Kabel laczacy;en_EN@Connecting cable;en_US@Connecting cable;" But I would like to display in query/table filed only text starting from "en_EN@*" or "??_??@*" or display nothing...
I know that it is possible to display only rows which contain this text, but how can I get rid of fields from unwanted words...?
I cannot change original table of database because the parent-program (EPLAN Electric) will not recognize this database... And additionally data base is updated via EPLAN so every new field should be filtered in this way...
I'm using 4 combo-boxes in order to filter a tabular form in access.
One combo box is for a company name the second is for a report type and the third and forth is for choosing years. I used VBA in order to apply the filter:
Each line works by itself but I cant figure out how to combine them together, or how to use "AND" between each filter so the filtering will refer all of them when I run the code.
I have a query that carries all the properties in our database, and data for when our company 'worked on' properties. Each property falls within a certain province and municipality (this is slightly irrelevant info) , we worked on properties in a period from 2009 - 2013/06/30 this period is called '2009', and we have again worked on properties during a period 2013/07/01 onward - this period is called '2013'.
Now I require this query to display all the properties, but only the entries in certain fields, that relate to '2013'.
I have about 7 fields where this date (either 2009 or 2013) can be displayed, I tried to filter them all simultaneously by using the criteria: Is Null Or "2013", in every one of these fields, but this criteria results in me losing entire records that contained 2009 data, instead of the data simply not being displayed. Even in cases where some of the 'date' fields contained 2013.
How I can keep all records but simply display info relating to work we did in the 2013 period?
I’m not an expert in Access and hope that someone can help me with my problem. I have about 20 fields of Yes/No data type.
E.g. StudentID- Tex Science – Yes/No Math – Yes/No Biology – Yes/No Chemistry – Yes/No Economics – Yes/No ...
I would like to create a parameter query (without using form combo box) where when I run the query, it would prompt me for the subject name. Let say I keyed in Science, it would list out all the StudentsID who took up Science only (with a Yes) and the other subjects.
I have two questions. I have a form with 2 combo boxes. The first pulls from a simple list. Once you make a choice, the second combo box is then filtered by the first. This works correct, except that once a choice is made in the first, the filter is locked. If you change the first combo box's value a second time it does not effect the second box. The query that I am using for the second combo box has two columns that pull the first 50 characters of a pair of memo fields. Quote: SELECT MSSS.SS_ID, Left([Application_Name],50) AS Expr1, Left([Description],50) AS Expr2, MSSS.Site_Code FROM MSSS WHERE (((MSSS.Site_Code)=[Forms]![Edit or Delete Requests]![Combo6])); These fields are then used to populate 2 text fields using an event procedure. Quote: Private Sub Combo10_AfterUpdate() ' Display Partial Application Name and Description based on choice Me!txtApplication_Name = Me!Combo10.Column(1) Me!txtDescription = Me!Combo10.Column(2) End Sub This is working fine, but it starts the next problem.
I need to change the form to include the entire memo field into a text box. I was using the columns of the second combo box to fill them in. Since the combo box is limited to only 50 characters, i could only grab part of it. I am guessing there is a much better way to accomplish what I need, but I am too inexperienced with forms and vb to come up with it. Below are the fields I need from table MSSS Business_Name Application_Name Description Acronym Level_1_Support Level_2_Support Escalation_process Troubleshooting Priority Links Modified Disabled
Hello i am an engineer working on an access program and i have hit a little snag. I know i am missing one small little code but i can not seem to figure it out.
I am trying to view everything in one category but one item. It is about 20 different dealers and i want all of them but one. I know if i want to view only one i type "dealer" but what do i type is i want to view all of them but one?:confused:
I have set up a query and a Crosstab Query based on that Query. This works fine, but I am trying to filter the data in the crosstab query to only include the account info for the account the user is viewing.
My crosstab looks something like this :
Account # Result 1 Result 2 Result 3 Result 4
I can static a criteria in the base query (Criteria Account = "1") and it works, but I need the criteria in the query to change based on the record the user is viewing on a specific form. I tried to reference the form ; Forms![formname].[account] but the crosstab query will not run that way. Is there a way through code to change the criteria in a query for a specific field ?? Or do I need to create a recordset and use SQL statements ?

In the production report that I made, I want to achieve 2 things.
1) I want the report to filter automatically to display only the current month's invoice. As you can see, all of the invoices are displayed from 2012-2014.
2) I also want to be able to filter the report based on the invoice number. I want this to be achieved by clicking the invoice button on the top part of the report.
I'll start with explaining what my goal is.. I have a table with workorders, it has a column "date planned" so I can give all the work orders a date when to be executed.
On the other hand I also have a table with the ID of every technician and the dates when their vacation starts and ends, so 3 columns, 1 text, 2 dates.
To link the 2 I use a table "schedule" where I have 4 columns, "ID", "WO", "TechID". WO refers to the workorder nummer that can be found in the schedule table.
My end goal is to have a form with a subform "schedule" where I can see all the workorders in dataview, when I select a workorder in the table I want to fill up a combobox with all the technicians available, so that means that all the ones on vacation on the planned date of that WO are not included in the combobox..
I tried making a select query, but I have no clue how to make a "select ... where (date) is not between ... and ..."
So what is the best way to ensure the third entry is fine as whilst ready salted already exists it doesnt exist for doritos but the fourth entry would pull up a msgbox refusing the entry as it is a repeat of entry one.
In a form I have Two fields (which are of interest):
1) EmployeesName which is a lookup from another table named

if possible what I want to try and do when I select EmplyeeName from the dropdown list of names I want the EmplyeeNumber to be inserted into this field automatically rather than searching through the dropdown list again is this possible?
I have form that is tied to a query. When I enter criteria that matches what i have in the table, it returns the infromation on another form fine.
However, if there is no data for the criteria I am entering, I get a blank form. Is there anyway to have the fields of the form show even when there is no data?
I am having a little trouble using a 'canned' Access database. Using the built in Asset Tracking database, I am trying to get specific information on the Assets report. The Assets report generally shows all assets, I've made a new report to show the data sorted by the phone extension number, also the room number (which is how our inventory is tracked).
This works well, except, I want to be able to view one extension/room at a time. To do this, I added a button on the 'Enter/View Emplyees' form to preview the report, and created a macro to get this info. However, it only shows whatever data is highlighted in the emplyees sub-form. How can I get all of the data assigned to each extension to appear on the report?
Tried to upload the file, but it's too large. Can email if requested.
How best to go about designing a new table that shows any records matching a specific user name field from a parent table (without changing any records in the parent table).
For example: Any record in the column "user name" matching "Craig" in the parent table should be displayed in the new table.
I also would like for the new table to update automatically anytime a new record meeting the user name criteria ("Craig" for example) is added to the parent table.
I'm a BA so i'm converting my excel issues list into a database with a front end where i can create new issue records this uses a form that sits on top of the issues_table.
Howver, i have created a table called Projects and a table called Test_Plans
Each issue is logged against a project and a test plan. Lets say ProjectA has TestPlan1 and ProjectB has Testplan2.
On my issues form, i can select ProjectA in the project field.
In the Testplan field i can select EITHER TestPlan1 or Testplan2
Testplan1 is the only valid entry.
How do i
a) Once I have selected ProjectA in the Project field only display Testplan1 in the Testplan field?
or
b) If the user tries to enter testplan2 for it to error?
I've tried creating a query and linking the controlsource field to it but it doesn't like that!
