I've got a field in a table that is a multiple drop-down list. In the form, I don't want it to be a drop down list, but I want the options in the drop down list to be checkboxes instead (not within a drop down).
View RepliesI have an issue with a couple of my combo boxes. When in form mode the drop down menu displays a list of options (taken from my source table), this is fine, but the problem is that it allows the user to select more than one of the options in the form of checkboxes. This is not what I intended.
I've attached to pictures to demonstrate the problem. The first is ComboBoxQuery (the one with the problem) and the second is ComboBoxQueryWorkign (the one without a problem).
I'm not sure why this is happening and I've tried comparing all the properties of both these combo boxes and changing some of them to see if I can eliminate the problem without any joy.
I use a very standard SELECT statement to pull the data for the combo box:
SELECT CountryID, CountryName FROM tblCountryInfo ORDER By CountryName
I have a spreadsheet that has been downloaded from a website. On the website people have chosen from a group of 28 checkboxes their answer. I have imported this spreadsheet into access. I now need to be able to run a report that shows only the one they chose instead of listing all 28..

The form runs an append query that records the data into a historical table, however on submission the checkboxes remain ticked. way to clear the checkboxes once the data has been submitted?
View 13 Replies View RelatedI have a form where you can select four different options: Health, Dental, Vision, and COBRA, with a button to run a census. Right now, the button runs a DoCMD.OpenReport to open a report named "Census" where there are four text boxes, "Health Coverage Type" "Dental Coverage Type" "Vision Coverage Type" and "COBRA Coverage Type". I want the user to be able to select a checkbox, then filter the report to only enable the text boxes of the corresponding names.
So if someone selects Health & Dental, I want the report to run with the "Health Coverage Type" and "Dental Coverage Type" textboxes enabled/visible, but the other two to be blank.
From a dropdown field in the form it's currently possible to choose a geographical region for which to generate a report. The data populating this dropdown is pulled in from a Value List as follows:
" ";"*";1;2;3;4;5;6;7;8;9;10;11;12;13;EU;WD
I now need the ability to choose various different regions simultaneously which is not possible with the current method. I've looked into a nested continuous form and a multi-select combo box or list box, but none of these are as user friendly as my preferred method.
What I would like is 15 checkboxes plus a 16th to select/unselect all. When any of these checkboxes is checked, I need to create something like a dynamic value string or temporary table to hold the list of chosen regions until the generate button is clicked at which point the data is used to generate the report and cleared. I also need a piece of code to check/uncheck all the boxes.
Access 2003. Job booking data base with up to group of 10 different users. At the end of the month, I need to count the total amount each user has checked a particular check box and then automatically calculate the total of the whole group.I have only a basic working knowledge of Access 2003....
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have created a database which is used as a sign in and out machine for students. I have 2 forms a 'sign in' which has a lookup list containing all student names. as well as date and time and a 'sign out form' which uses a lookup list from the sign in form.
It collects data fine but when a student signs in and out a second time there name is duplicated in the 'sign out' drop down list. The student must select the right name out of the duplicates otherwise it wont record.
Im just wondering if there is some sort of fix to this.

Is there a function that will populate a field with drop down menu based on two criteria?I want the the fields with first and last name to populate with drop down lists based on the employee code I have inputted in the form and job title from a query.
Path: looks at employee code from form > looks at specific job title from query > pulls out all first names in one field and all last names in another field with the same job title in drop down list from query
Employee Code: 100
Returns all employees' first names in first field with same job title:
Prince
Tina
Greg
Returns all employees' last names in second field of form with same job title:
Fey
William
Jones
Here's what the query looks like in datasheet view:
Code:
Location # First Name Last Name Job Title Employee Code
1 John Smith Technician 100
2 Jane Doe Manager 100
2 Greg Jones Engineer 100
1 Prince William Engineer 100
1 Tina Fey Engineer 100
I've been trying to get dlookup to work, but no luck. Here's one of my formula:
Code:
=DLookUp("[Last Name]", "[Employees tb]", _ "[Employee Code] = Form![Employee Code]" & "[Employees tb]", _ " [Manager]"
SELECT EmployeeCodeONLY.[Employee Code] FROM EmployeeCodeOnly;
SELECT [Employees tb].[First Name] FROM [Employees tb] WHERE ((([Employees tb].[First NAME])=[Forms]![Form1]![Employee Code]));
The first is linked to a separate table that only contains employee codes because query I am working with has duplicates due to multiple records.The second is trying to link both the table and query together to populate only first name.how to include the second criteria, job title, to refine it more.
Is it possible to have a drop down list dependant on the date selected? The form has date, then period time. Would it be possible for the period time drop down list to change if the date is selected on a saturday?
View 8 Replies View RelatedIn my form's table (tblMain), I've got a lookup field (drop-down list) that lists the primary key field from a different table (tblDiff). tblDiff includes 3 more fields. In my form for tblMain, I want to include 3 more textboxes that get filled up with these 3 fields from tblDiff when the corresponding primary key is selected in the drop-down box.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a table with a list of Students. While the academic year is in progress those students are in an "Active" status. Once the year is finished those students are moved into (hopefully) a "Passed" status or some other status that is not considered "Active".
Throughout the rest of the database I have many forms that refer to the Student Listing. As an example we have a Test so we select the Student performing the test using a Drop Down List and go from there.
I have set search criteria to the Drop Down List via the Combo Box's Query to only display active students and it works fine during the Academic Year. However if I have to review a test from a previous year then the Student Drop Down List no longer displays the name but their ID# (Primary Key) because the Student's status has now changed and no longer meets the query criteria.
Is there a way to use the Filter/Search Criteria to chose from a listing of Active Students but once selected it will display the Student name regardless of their status?
I have drop down list linked to table included "agent names" , the names appeared normally in the form but not Alphabetic (A-Z) although the table was alphabetic .

I have a simple data entry form with drop down facilities on 2 fields. One of these fields incorporates a drop down list from a table but there are occasions when I wish to make a free text entry for the single record, but do not wish to add it to the drop down list.

I have created a database that has both English and French forms feeding information into the same table. I'm not concerned if the info stored in the table is stored in French or in English. It all works fine other then the drop down boxes in the forms, here I only seem to be able to either have the English or the French options visible on both the English and the French form. Is there a way to have the English options on the English form and the French options on the French form, both feeding the results into the same field in the table.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm in Access 2013 and I built a form with multiple drop downs. Here is what I have in the same order of which the user must choose from......
Document "Field Observation", "Monthly Inspection", "Safety Roster" (The user must first choose the document from this drop down he is recording)
Supervisor "First & Last Name" (The user then chooses the first & last name of the specific Supervisor name he is recording the document for from this drop down)
Manager - This field automatically populates based on Supervisor.
AOR - This field automatically populates based on Supervisor.
Org Unit - This field automatically populates based on Supervisor.
Month "January", "February", etc. (The user then chooses the Month of which the document will need to be applied to)
I would like the form to trigger an error with "This document is already recorded for this month" when the user chooses "Monthly Inspection" OR "Safety Roster" for a specific "Supervisor" for a specific "Month" that is already recorded in "TBL_DataTracker". The TBL_DataTracker is where all of my records are stored.

I have a select query that has 10 columns which are checkboxes (yes/no) from the original table. I can apply filters for individual columns but I want the query to show records with ANY of the boxes checked and only omit those with NO boxes checked.

hi, i've a form with 2 combo boxes (month and year) and 2 buttons "save" and "get". I'm trying to figure out how to use that button to perform 4 tasks.
task 1:
when i select the month and the year from the combo boxes and i click the button "get", the form should populate the number of checkboxes equavalent to the number of days of that month. e.g: if i select feb 2008, i should have 29 checkboxes (due to leap year) or i select apr 2005, i should have 30 checkboxes.
assuming that i've done the date validation function.. like jan, mar, may, jul, aug, oct and dec should return 31 days, leap year etc.
task 2:
then how should i assign the date value to the checkbox? say if i check on the 5 th box, it should return me a value of 05/09/2005 (assuming i select sept in my month combo box and 2005 in my year combo box earlier on)
task 3:
how should i code the label for my checkboxes? i wan to have 2 labels on top of the checkbox. the first label to show the name of the day (e.g: mon, tue etc) and the second label to show the day (e.g: 1, 2, 3)
task 4:
not sure if this task is a tall order.. but nonetheless, i need to consult the experts here. let's say when i check multiple checkboxes at one go, how to update into the table i want?
e,g: i check 9 boxes (e.g: 01/09/05, 03/09/2005, 04/09/2005... 23/09/2005) then when i click the button "save", i should have nine records in my table designated to save the data.
pls help. thanks. :)
I'm having a rough time finding information regarding filtering using multiple check boxes that are not part of an option group. I have 4 "sets" of check boxes that can each have multiple selections made.
For example I have:
12 check boxes for each month
6 check boxes for a selection of years
6 check boxes for order types
5 check boxes for order company
I have written code that successfully creates a string depending on what boxes are checked that looks like this.
[Ship month] = "1" OR [Ship month] = "2" OR [Ship month] = "5" AND [Ship Year] = "2013" OR [Ship Year] = "2014" AND [OrderType] = "SO" OR [OrderType] = "SM" AND [Order Company] = "10430" OR [Order Company] = "10440"
The problem is that it does not filter correctly. After playing around with it I found that as long as the entire is using all AND operators or all OR operaters it works fine, but as soon as I mix them it doesn't work.
Hi all,
Firstly, I'm an ex-fulltime access developer who has found himself doing access work again 6 years later; I can't actually believe how much I've forgotten :s
Anyway, I've done a search and havn't found anything that can help me so wondered if anyone could give some advice.
I have an access form with 3 combo boxes and a checkbox next to each of them. these are accessed using a query with 3 iif statements in it stating; (iif checkbox is null, "*", combo_box_value). the whole query looks like this
SELECT Customers.*
FROM Customers
WHERE (((Customers.Partner)=IIf(Forms!frm_rpt_main!check _partner Is Null,"*",Forms!frm_rpt_main!partner)) AND ((Customers.[Type Business])=IIf(Forms!frm_rpt_main!check_type Is Null,"*",Forms!frm_rpt_main!type)) AND ((Customers.[Year End Month])=IIf(Forms!frm_rpt_main!check_month Is Null,"*",Forms!frm_rpt_main!month)));
However, the query only seems to want to pull data from all 3 combo boxes
My issue is that if a checkbox is not ticked, I want the values to be ignored for all 3 combo's.
I've attached a copy of the mdb file as my description probably doesnt make any sense, the specific query is "qry_select_month_partner_type_wname_frm_rpt"
Thanking you all in advance for your help!

I have a form. In that form I want to display a series of dates from a database table..ex. 12/15/2004, 12/16/2005, etc... Next to those dates I want to have a checkbox. The user should be able to click on that checkbox if they want to sign up for that date. So there could be more then 1 checkbox checked, but there will always be atleast 1. So my first question is, how do I make this work. I've tried several things and everytime I check on the checkbox it checks all of the checkboxes.
PLEASE HELP!
Subject 2: Regarding the above question, how do i reference those dates that I've checked the checkbox next to, to put into another table?
PLEASE HELP!
I have 8 checkboxes. Each checkbox has several e-mail addresses as string. Therefore, each checkbox has a string variable declared. I was wondering what should I do when selecting multiple check boxes. This is my code:
Code:
If Me!chkAGDLLA = True Then
Forms!email.lstName = Null
Forms!email.chkComercial = False
Forms!email.chkOperacional = False
strAGDLLA = "email1, email2, email3, email4"
strMail = strAGDLLA & ", " & strISA & ", " & strMAYA & ", " & strSANGER & "," & strSANSE & ", " & strSede & ", " & strGC & ", " & strCSR
MsgBox strMail
End If
Problem is that if I only select chkAGDLLA, then strMail will be "email1, email2, email3, email4, , , , , , ,"
I do not want all those commas, but how to make this work. I was thinking maybe a SELECT CASE so that strMail will accumulate data based on what's checked, but then there will be a problem of there being no comma between cases.
I created a Microsoft Access database and access to the system must be controlled by User Access Level Control. The level of the user determines whether the user can add, edit, delete or view a certain form.
I created three tables which are linked via foreign keys: tblUsers, tblUserRoles and tblPermissions. (See the Tables attachment)
I designed the Permissions form to be user friendly by adding checkboxes on the form so that the Administrator can select whether a new user has Add, Edit, Delete or View rights. (See the User Level attachment)
To test my code I added a user as an Administrator. The problem is that when I select the Add, Edit, Delete and View checkboxes, it only saves the last checkbox to the Permissions table. The Administrator must have Add, Edit, Delete or View privileges on the Employees form, but now he only has View privileges. My code does not generate an error. (See the Incorrect attachment)
The Permissions table is suppose to save four entries(See the Correct attachment)
Here is my code.
Private Sub cmdSave_Click()
Dim rstPermissions As Object
Dim dbFSManagement As Object
Set dbFSManagement = CurrentDb
Set rstPermissions = New ADODB.recordSet
