Forms :: Form With Tabs But Separate Sources

Dec 29, 2014

I am creating a database in which to store my data collected in my research. I have 8 tables that are linked by a SampleID number. I have created a form which has tabs, the first tab contains the information required for entry on table 1; how I am going to add the controls from table 2 onto the second tab.

I know how to make additional tabs and I have created a separate form for table 2 with the form wizard, cut and pasted the fields into the second tab on my first form BUT how to establish the source for those controls back to the second table. To make matters worse (of course not to be too dramatic here) I can see the other table in my Field List of related tables.

Forms :: Multiple Data Sources For Tabs On A Form

Jun 24, 2013

Please see the screen shot attached.

I have a single form with multiple tabs. At the top of the form appears the name of an individual and below the name are multiple tabs containing information specific to that individual. Each tab has a separate underlying table, which is the data source for the information contained on that tab.

As best as I can tell, I can only use one single data source (a query at the moment) to populate all the data that appears on all the tabs. Is there a way that I can have a separate data source (namely, a table) for each tab?

Forms :: Integrating Multiple Record Sources Into Form

Oct 28, 2014

I have a reservations form, which will be used to store the checkin and checkout dates for customers; these are related to the reservations table. On the same form I also want room details showing such as room number, this is on a separate rooms table. I believe that the room number will be a query to show which rooms are available and therefore display the room number on the form. So I need integrating this into the form. Also I have not set it as a subform, the reservations form carries on from the customers form, as a new form.

Forms :: Show Tabs And Subforms In Tabs Only If Data Exists

May 6, 2013

I'm trying to clean up a form a bit and have it only show certain subforms/graphs if the data exists. I already have columns in a combobox query to show an "X" for if certain data appears:

Now, I know I could build another query and have some system go through and identify these things, but the easiest thing would be to reference the "X" in the columns of the combobox. Is there an easy way to reference values in the other (non-primary) columns? Or can you think of an easy way to make these subforms only be visible when the data exists? Maybe have an on load event for the subform?

Forms :: Tab Control Form With About 5 Tabs

Nov 21, 2013

I have a tab control form with about 5 tabs. However when I move to the tab that has a datasheet form, the page moves down. You have to scroll up to see the above tabs. Is there something I'm missing on this simple tasks? Is it better to have it as a basic form for easier interface.

Forms :: One Table / Three Forms - Each Form With Control Tabs

Jul 4, 2013

I'm trying to make a very simple click through data entry screen in Access 2007. For each record I want to have a standard form with three buttons at the bottom. Each button opens a new form (each form has a set of tabbed pages on it as there is lots to enter).How do I make sure that each of the additional forms populate the same record as the main form.

Forms :: Embed Navigation Form Instead Of Using Tabs

Oct 21, 2014

I have a form with a lot of data structured in tabs. Since the tab loads all the data at once while the navigation form browses to the desired form. I have tried but the issue is the Master-Child link. The form in the navigation form is not considered as a subform, hence, no way to set a Master-Child link. The navigation form itself is the subform but even when setting up a link there it has no influence on the form displayed by the navigation form.

Forms :: Cannot Select Form With Button Inside Tabs

Jan 29, 2014

I have a master form named frmCustomer. I then have a set of tabs (not the navigation tabs) embedded within frmCustomer. The tabs are Invoice (frmInvoice), Contacts *frmContacts), Notes (frmNotes) and Orders (frmOrders). All form are Single Form. There is another form named frmInv that displays an invoice in a formatted manner. frmINV gets its data from a q1uery called InvQ.

It has a criteria that reads [Forms}![frmInvoice]![Invoice_ID]. I placed a button on frmInvoice that calls frmInv. If I run frmInvoice separately outside the tab the correct invoice displays. If I click the buttom from within the tab I am asked to enter the vale of [Forms}![frmInvoice]![Invoice_ID]. How do I call the frmInv form from the tab?

Forms :: Tabbed Form Validation Before Switching Tabs

Mar 20, 2013

I have a tabbed form built in Access 2007. It's a series of about 32 different questions, with some being fill-in, some drop down boxes to select from, some radio buttons to choose a rating from 1 to 5. The reason I used a tabbed form was just to keep things consolidated on one screen where no scrolling was involved. All of the entries on each of these tabs are deposited into the same single table. I have 7 tabs, and all of the fields on the 7 tabs compose a single record in the table.

I have the actual tabs hidden, and instead use a button to switch to the next tab (Continue button at the bottom) once all the fields on that tab have been completed. I have all of the necessary fields set to be required, but Access does not validate the entries until the very end of the survey when they click a 'submit' button that actually saves the responses and returns to the opening splash page to start the survey again.

What I want to happen is for the fields on the current tab to be validated before it lets the user move to the next tab with the continue button. If they click continue and have left any fields blank they should get a message that all required fields must be completed or something similar to that.

I have found a thread here entitled "Form Validation before Moving to another Tab" which sounds similar to what I'm doing, but using the button method to navigate to the next tab, there is no BeforeUpdated event to assign that code to.

Forms :: Navigation Form - Limit Access To Tabs

Feb 7, 2015

I have navigation form with 2 tabs I'd like to limit access to users with certain type of account.

There are 2 tables in database that contains user names and types of accounts (tblSecurityLevel and tblUser), and they are used to set user name, login and security level.

It works this way: when you open form, it checks if PC name corresponds to name in UserLogin field (tblUser), if it does it gives appropriate access level depending on set user security, if PC name is not on the list user will be logged as guest.

So far, I used this code and it works great for limiting access to 1 tab:

Code:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim UserLogin As String
Dim userLevel As Integer
UserLogin = Environ("Username")
Me.TxtLogin = UserLogin

[Code] ....

Is there a way to expand the code and add second tab (or even third) with this table structure (I'd like to be able to keep login which 1st checks for pc name).

Forms :: Setting Add / Edit Permissions On Form Tabs

Jun 5, 2013

I have an Access 2003 database. I have a form with 5 tabs. I want to prevent some users from editing data on some of the tabs.

I added some logic to the OPEN property of the parent form but it does not work. "Object doesn't support this property or method." What is the correct way of controlling access of the data on the tabs?

In the logic below I first determine the user's permission for each tab. If the user has read-only access they will not be allowed to edit anything on this tab. There are 50 fields on the accounting tab and a subform. If possible, I don't want to have to specify each field individually in the code. Plus there are 5 tabs with numerous fields on each.

BTW: [add designer] is the parent form and [accounting] is the tab.

If DLookup("[permission_studentacct_ReadOnly]", "Users", "Contact_ID = " & Forms![Global]![UserID]) = True Then
Forms![Add Designer].[Accounting].AllowEdits = False
Else
End If

Forms :: Create A Form That Incorporates Number Of Different Tables And Tabs

Mar 7, 2013

I want to create a form that incorporates a number of different tables & tabs. When I switch tabs (which represent the information on the different tables) I need it to be consistent with the main table and all the information that follows it from the different tables.I've been told the best way to do that is with a parent form but I haven't been able to find an EASY step-by-step instruction on how to do that.

Forms :: Access 2010 The Same Record Be Selected In Each List Box Within The Form With Tabs

Sep 21, 2013

I have a form with 3 tab controls. Within each tab, there is a bound list box that lists records based on a combo box selection. All list boxes are bound to the same table and records in each tab will be in the same order.

Tab1, listbox1:Field1, Field2, Field3, Field4
Tab2, listbox2, Field1,Field2, Field5, Field6
Tab3, listbox3:Field1, Field2, Field7, Field8,Field9

I would like the same record be selected in each list box within the tabs, e.g. when record #2 is selected on tab1, the same record will be selected on tab2 and tab3, or if I click on tab 2 again and change the selection to record #3, record #3 will be selected on tab1 and tab2.

Forms :: Main Form With Multiple Tabs - Sync Two Related Subforms

Jul 28, 2014

I have a main form with multpile tabs - each tab containing a different subform.

Link Master Field: ClientID (field in Master Form)
Link Child Field: Client ID (field in all subforms)

There is another field that all the subforms (continuous type) have: ObligorName. All the subforms are based off of a huge table (subtable) with fields: Obligor Name, Address, Zipcode, City, DOcuments Required, Bank Account Number, etc......

Essentially, the user will fill in the 10 obligor names associated to ONE client on the first subform on the first tab + address + zip code + city.

When the user clicks on the second tab to fill out the next subform, I want all 10 obligor names to be there already, so then they can fill out Documents Required + BAnk Account Number.

If I fill out the first subform and then exit out of the form and then reopen it, the other subforms autofill.

HOWEVER, I dont want to have the user have to do this. It wastes a lot of time. What can I do about this so that the table is automatically updated right away. They are all based on the same table so I do not see why there is so many issues.

Aug 15, 2013

I have a form with two textboxes called: txtAptDep, txtAptArr.

Forms :: Open A Form With Subform From Separate Form

Oct 23, 2014

I'm trying to open a form with a subform from a separate form. I've never had any issue before, but all of the sudden, the subform doesn't seem to open immediately. I get the error

Code:
Method 'Form' of object '_SubForm' failed.

After that, it opens (subform and all), but some calculated text fields just say "#Name?#"
The only thing I did today was add a command button to that subform.

When I try opening the form (or subform) from the navigation pane, I get

Code:
The expression On Current you entered as the event property setting produced the following error:

A problem occurred while Contracts was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX Control

When I step through the code, it doesn't reach the On Current event.

Forms :: Filtering A Subform On Tab Control From A Separate Form

Sep 11, 2013

I am trying to filter a subform on a tab control based on an input on a second form.

Mainform: frm Index Page 2
Tab Control on Mainform: tabctrlMain
Subform: Customer Details
Tab Name: tabCustomerDetails

The second form is basically a separate Search Form where users can look for a customer ID and returns the ID back to Customer Details form.So far I have managed to redirect focus to the correct tab on the tab control using the following code:

DoCmd.OpenForm "frm Index Page 2"
With Forms("frm Index Page 2")
!tabctrlMain.Value = !tabCustomerDetails.PageIndex
End With

However, I am stuck with the filtering part. Everything was working fine before I began putting the forms together into one big tab control (I tried using Navigation Pane but there were too many referencing problems so I gave up on that one).

Forms :: Use Form To Edit Records In 2 Separate Tables

Apr 2, 2013

I have the logical process, but I just don't know how to put it into code.

I have a form with two boxes HireMovieID and HireCustomerID, with a button HireButton.

The two tables which I have are CustomerInfo and MovieList.

Here's the psuedocode for what I need to happen:

Code:
IF HireMovieID.Genre = "R16"
(IF DOB > Today - 16 years)
Display Error: "Too young"
ELSE Hire()

[Code] ....

I need to somehow make it so that the MovieID is valid, as in, if it doesn't exist then it comes up with an Error MsgBox.

Form With 2 Different Control Sources?

Dec 14, 2005

Hi,
I have just split up a table into tables so that has interfered with the form I had created for it. I have 2 main tables:

tblDrawingRegister:
DrawingNum
DrawingName

tblRevision:
Drawing num
Revision
LatestIssueDate
OrderNum

I split them up because there was alot of dublication. One drawing can have many different revisions. So I think it was better to split it up like this?

Anyways the form allows the user to add this information so some of the controls are bound to one form and the others to another. I know that I could do a query to combine the two tables but is that the best way to do it from an optimisation/ good database design point of view?

From a layout point of view I would prefer not to use a subform.

Thanks for your time,
RCurtin

Universal Form For Different Sources?

Jan 27, 2015

I have an option group where the user reads a question and either has to select yes or no. There are multiple questions on this form. If the user selects 'No' I'd like a "why" form to pop up and allow the user to write a reasoning down and have it saved in a record in a table (the same table that the yes or no answer is saved in).

Right now I have it working, but my method will force me to make a specific why form for each question (which will be over 50). This doesn't seem very efficient.

Forms :: Display Field From Separate Table In A Form To Use As Reference

Mar 25, 2014

In my form (source tblJobs) i input a contract number from tblContracts. but i would also like it to show the contract address when the contract number is entered. Both fields belong to tblContracts but i only wish to enter the contract number, the address will just be used as a reference as it isnt something i would have to enter again.

So for example

112 - Main Road

If i enter 122 in my ContractNo field i would like it to show the contract address for that specific contract.

Can i do this? If So how?

Forms :: Populating Text Box Based On Combo Box - Separate Form

Aug 14, 2015

The main issue I'm having is trying to populate a text box based on a combo box selection. I've found threads on that - the twist that is throwing me for a loop is that I'm dealing with two different forms.

I have a main/welcome form with two combo boxes on it. Based on the user's selections in these two combo boxes, two different forms are opened for data entry. For instance, box 1 has A, B, C and box 2 has x, y, z. If a user chooses B and z, then form B and form z are opened. What I want is for a text box to be populated on one of the opened forms, not the same (main/welcome) form. In other words, when B and z are chosen, I would like there to be a textbox autofilled with "z" on form z.
