Disabled Command Buttons In More Than One Form

Jun 30, 2005

Hi all,

I have a frmUserLoginScreen that opens frmMainSelectionScreen, which has 4 command buttons on it. Dependant on user level, some of the command buttons are disabled.

I have four user groups, manager, admin, IT and guest. When the guest logs on, the frmMainSelectionScreen only has one command button enabled. Once clicked, this opens frmClientDetails which has a command button that enables the user to add a record.

Basically, I want the add record command button to be disabled on the frmClientDetails if the user is a guest.

I've tried all sorts of code to reference the other forms but I'm not having any luck. Has any kind fellow got any ideas?

Thanks

Find Command

Mar 7, 2006

I have a find command button that appears to call the find and replace message box. It should be a search for anything in my query. The code behind the button looks like the find and replace message box in the office suite. I believe I am trying to create a message box where you add an entry and it searches then lauches a subform with my entries.

When I checked the button it had the following code:
Private Sub cmdFind_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdFind_Click

Screen.PreviousControl.SetFocus
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, 10, , acMenuVer70

Exit_cmdFind_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_cmdFind_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdFind_Click

End Sub

I read a few of the lookup queries but they only give me a drop down. Is there some way to customize the box comes up without altering all of Office or do I just sound lost.

Forms :: Controls With Data Not Locking Or Disabled

Jun 20, 2014

I've got some forms that I've set to lock controls based on an added tag. I have a loop that goes through the entire form and disables (controlname.enabled = false) or locks (controlname.locked =true) all the controls with that tag.

This appears to work fine when the form is on a blank record but when an existing record is opened, the controls that have data in them are no longer locked or disabled (empty controls are still locked). Is there an explanation for this behavior? I don't want to disable the entire form because there are controls that I want the user to be able to always access. I started by just disabling them, then when I noticed the problem I tried locking them instead but it happens with both. Is there another property I can try that will really lock them if they have data in them or not?

Find Record Command Button

Oct 26, 2005

I know you can create a find record command button really simply, which when clicked will display the find and replace window.

What i want to do is create a command button that will search a specific field that i specify in a report for the criteria i enter.

i.e i have a customer information form, which contains

AccountNo
CompanyName
Address
Postcode
Tel etc

what i want is a button that when clicked brings up an input field that allows the user to type the name of the company into this field, then when either the enter key is pressed or another button on this pop up window the matching record will be displayed or a error window stating that there are no matching records. Can anyone help me with this.

Ms Access Search/find Command Button??

Oct 29, 2004

I have a MS Access database, and I have set up a form for users to input

name, address, ssn and other data. I have command buttons on the form

to print a record, add a record, delete a record and to exit. I tried the

search option, but with 50k records on a netwoek, it was to slow.

Is there a way to have a search on a command button, (Macro?) on

this form to allow our employees to search by name or ssn?

Thanks for your help.

Find Command Question & Couple Other Questions.

Feb 25, 2005

Hello All, I was wondering when you use a find command, if you can make it so it searches two tables from the form your currently viewing, not just the data from the table that is tied to that current form.

Second question is I am thinking about maybe taking some "1 day" classes on access. My question is how many people have taken these & are they worth the money, or is it easier just to buy a book & if buying a book is better what is a good access book to buy.

Forms :: Disable Ribbon Randomly Shows Up

Jun 25, 2013

I have disabled the Ribbon using XML code in the USysRibbon table. Everything has worked fine, except that now when I click on two different tabs that exist on my form, the Form Tools Ribbon pops up with options to go to Layout, Design View, etc., and other options, too.

I have two subforms on this tab, but neither one has a Ribbon Name set (I didn't even know how to do that when I made them) where to look to see why this is happening. The Ribbon does not show at all on the other tabs like it is supposed to. It only shows when I click on my 3rd and 4th tabs, and then it disappears again when I click on other tabs.

Forms :: Hide Close Buttons On Ribbon?

Mar 28, 2013

I am trying to find a way to hide the close button on the ribbon. My 2007 and 2010 users keep closing the database by the "x" and it's driving me nuts. I have an exit on the switchboard. I tried to disable navigation and ribbons under options and it hides everything except the x. I tried the code:

Code:
Docmd.Showtoolbar "Ribbon", acToolbarNo

In the startup form. Still doesn't give me what I want.

Find Command In Access In One Report To Search Throughout Whole Database

Dec 7, 2014

Is there a way to use the find command in access in one report to search throughout the whole database. For instance, I am designing a database that in a report it shows the number identifier of an item, and the actual detailed information is located in a separate form. What I want it to do is to be able to find the detailed information from a command within the report that only has the number identifier.

Forms :: Datasheet View - Specify Ribbon To Open On Form Load

Aug 11, 2015

When you open a form in datasheet view, the default ribbon is of course the "Datasheet" tab. I would rather have the "Home" tab ribbon open up, because I have one field in this form set up as hyperlinks to open another form, so the filter and search buttons would be more useful to the user. I'd rather not go to the trouble to create a custom ribbon, so is there anyway to set the default ribbon tab to "Home" when you load the form? There is a ribbon property for the form, but I don't know the reference name for the tab.

Hyperlink's # Charactor Disabled

Feb 9, 2008

The # character in a hyperlink is used to separate hyperlink parts. Here is a case when I do NOT want this character to do the separation: a network file where the # character is part of the filename: k:datasomeFile#ref02.doc.

How can I put this URL into a hyperlink field in a table and NOT have Access treat it like this:
Address: k:datasomeFile
Subaddress: ref02.doc
which then of course results in the usual "Unable to open..." error.

(I tried replacing the # with %023 but when Access seems to convert it automatically to #).

Disabled And Locked Textboxes

Jun 10, 2005

I'm creating an Access form and there are three sections to the form of which the user should only fill out one. So, they are controlled by a radio group and the desired action is as follows:

There is a default choice (by far, the most common) and it will be selected when the form is opened. When the user selects one of the radio options, the section controlled by that radio option will become enabled and the other two sections will become disabled/locked.

So I found that each box (textbox, combobox, etc) has the property enabled and locked. So I just set this accordingly depending on what is selected. The actual result is that the boxes will be grayed out and become disabled, but will never become enabled again.

Here's some abbreviated code:

Private Sub accountRequestType_AfterUpdate()
If Me.accountRequestType.Value = 1 Then
enableSection1
disableSection2
disableSection3
ElseIf Me.accountRequestType.Value = 2 Then
disableSection1
enableSection2
disableSection3
ElseIf Me.accountRequestType.Value = 3 Then
disableSection1
disableSection2
enableSection3
End If
End Sub

So an example of a disable function (which seems to work) is as follows:

Sub disableSection1()
Me.text123.Enabled = No
Me.text123.Locked = Yes
End Sub

And for an enable function (which doesn't seem to work):

Sub enableSection1()
Me.text123.Enabled = Yes
Me.text123.Locked = No
End Sub

So I'm a bit lost here, any ideas would be great. Are there different steps I need to take in order to enable them again? Am I being clear?

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Modules & VBA :: Mdb Menu Becomes Disabled

Jan 22, 2015

I have an mdb file that is being used in Access 2013. The menu appears in the Add Ins as it is supposed to and it works for the most part. For some reason, it remains visible but is not clickable/operable after I do the following code. This all works flawlessly in earlier version of Access so it must something peculiar to 2013 (no surprise there....). hat would cause the ribbon to stop working, what to do when it does, and best of all, how to prevent it from occurring in the first place?

This code is for an option box that either prints a report or creates a pdf and then sends the report as and attachment to a CDO generated email. Other than it (seemingly) turns off the menu..THe site won't allow me to post links so the code is an attached txt file

Forms :: Find Hex Or RGB Value For Blue Color That Access 2010 Uses By Default For Buttons On Forms?

Sep 5, 2014

Where can I find the Hex or RGB value for the blue colour that Access 2010 uses by default for buttons on forms? I need to change some buttons to yellow (I know the code for that) but later change them back to the previous shade of blue, which is shown in the Properties pane "Accent 1, Lighter 40%".

By clicking in the standard colors area at the bottom of the colour chooser I can find a very similar blue #D6DFEC but it doesn't look quite right. And the "accent" colour does not give me a Hex value.Is that "usual" blue even one colour? How can I reset a button to that style having changed it?
