Forms :: How To Get Third Combobox To Display Its Contents

May 14, 2015

I have a requirement that will need three cascading combo boxes - the second box should only display the contents that match or are relevant to the first combo box, etc.The title of the YouTube video is:

Microsoft Access pt 9 (Cascade Combo Box)

It seems the first and second combo boxes cascade and works fine. However, the third combo box remains blank after the second combobox selection has been made.

I have three tables: Customer, CustomerSubOrg, and PORs. I have setup lookup fields that are using Primary keys for two of the tables (CustomerSubOrg and PORs). However, I ensured that the primary key fields display as the "Names" of each instead of the numbers. I also ensured I went back and changed their data type to "Text" instead of "Number" so the text appears (which seems to have worked for box #2).

How to get the third combobox to display its contents? I've attached some additional screen shots below. I know the problem is within the second combobox -- perhaps the query needs some adjustment?Unfortunately I cannot attach images yet since I am now. But I basically created two queries and used them each for the second and third combobox.The comboboxes on the form:

Customer
Sub Organization
POR

The Suborg query looks like this:

Table: CustomerSubOrg
First Column:
From field SubOrg
From table CustomerSubOrg

Second Column:
From field CustomerID
From table CustomerSubOrg
Criteria [Forms]![frmMain]![cboCustomer]

The POR query looks like this:

Table: PORs

First Column:
From field PORName
From table PORs

Second Column:
From field SubOrgID
From table PORs
Criteria: [Forms]![frmMain]![cboSubOrganization]

Why wont the contents from the third combobox appear?

Forms :: Display Data In Multicolumn Combobox

Jul 7, 2015

I have a main form and a several subforms. The main form displays potential customer data and 1 of the subforms displays the advertisement that prompted that customer to call. 1 of the Advertisements is newspaper ads and for that one we want to track which newspaper.

The subform has 3 pieces of data. The advertisement type, advertisement date and a hidden field for the customer ID to link those to the appropriate customer. There is also a requirement for a field for the advertisement source for newspaper ads.

Data Structure:
Customer Table
CustomerID
Customer demographic data as fields

Advertisementtype
AdvertisementTypeID
AdvertisementType

SpecificAdvertisement.
SpecAdvID
Advertisementtypeid
advertisementdate
advsource

sample data
Customer
1
John
Smith
1234 some st
somecity
somest
somezip

Advtypes
1 google
2 Newspaper
3 Radio

specificAdv
2
7/7/2015
Daily Press

I have a combo box that gets the advtype Then another combo box that gets the adv date the issue I'm having is I also need the source and If I put it in the combo box it only displays when that combobox has the focus otherwise only the date shows. If I try to use a textbox to display the data I can only get the firstcolumn in the combobox and not the column I want. If I use the same query the combobox uses but only having the source in the select criteria I get the same data for every record. Since there are multiple advertisements and a customer could reply to any of them or all of them.

Forms :: Display TextBox Value Based On Combobox Selections

Jun 5, 2015

I have a form that has 3 combo boxes and a text box that I want to be a lookup. I have a little experience with DLookUp, but I do not think that will work here. The three combo boxes are linked to queries, and Tables. The first combo box is for choosing "Precious" or "Base" metals. The second combo box is filtered from the first and displays the "Metal Names". The third combo box is to choose a "Metal Market". There are currently four options for that. I want the text box to display the "Metal Market Price" based on the second and third combo box selections.

Here is a screenshot of the table with all of the metals and their market prices filled in with dummy values for now:

metals screenshot 1.PNG
Metals screenshot 2.PNG

Here is a screenshot of the relevant Form: Metals form screenshot.PNG

Here is a screenshot of the Table that relates to the relevant form: Metals table design.PNG

Here is a screenshot of the Metal Market table that the Query is based on: Metal Market Table.PNG

Combo Box Contents Depending On Prior Combobox

Aug 31, 2006

Hi

I have a form that is basically an autoform for inputting into my main table. I have one combobox that has customers in it.. let's call them a b and c. Further down is another field, called Reference. Each customer can have certain references. I want the reference field to be a combobox, in which the selection list is dependent on the choice in the customer combobox.

So if customer is a, the ref. cbo gives you the choice of 1, 2, or 3. If Customer is b, ref is 4, 5, or 6, and if customer is c, ref is 7, 8, or 9. See what I'm saying?

Sorry if it's not explained very well, I am happy to answer any questions to clarify it.

Thanks.

Forms :: ComboBox Doesn't Display Some Values - Returning Blank

Feb 10, 2014

In a form used to record a sale for a company we have a dropdown box with the contact names for that company and when one is selected it populates other boxes like phone number etc however the combobox brings up all possible contacts but when some of them are selected all the boxes return blank, including the combobox, whereas most of the contacts work fine.

The SQL used for the combobox is as follows..

Code:
SELECT tbl_Contacts.ContactTelephone, tbl_Contacts.ContactMobile, tbl_Contacts.ContactEmail, tbl_Contacts.ID_Contact, tbl_Contacts.ID_Company, tbl_Contacts.Salutation & " " & tbl_Contacts.ContactForename & " " & tbl_Contacts.ContactSurname AS MainContact
FROM tbl_Contacts
WHERE (((tbl_Contacts.ID_Company)=[tbl_CompanyBookings].[ID_Company]))
ORDER BY tbl_Contacts.ContactForename;

Why some contacts work and some don't ??

Modules & VBA :: Textbox And Contents Will Not Display

May 3, 2014

Me.TxtNotAllowed.Visible = True
dtTimer1 = Now

Modules & VBA :: Form For Scheduling Appointments - Display Timeslot In Combobox

Jan 3, 2014

I created a form for scheduling appointments on access 2013 using a youtube tutorial. I got most of it work apart from the combo box that functions in a way that once the time slot has booked with a client it should no longer be shown in the list.

E.g.:-2/2/2014 10:00AM is already booked with a client

The combo box should no longer display the 10:00 AM timeslot but can be shown on other days

Below is the VBA code that i typed out. How to create the code to make the combo box work in that manner.

Option Compare Database

Private Sub cboTime_Enter()
Dim i As Date, n As Integer, oRS As DAO.Recordset, sSQL As String
Dim dLowerbreak As Date, dUpperBreak As Date, dDuration As Date
Dim dLowerPrecision As Date, dUpperPrecision As Date
cboTime.RowSourceType = "Value List"

[Code] ....

I found out that the combo box does not work like it does in the video i.e the option does not dissaspear even though their has been a booking with that time slot with another client.

Coding that is required to make the combo box work like that or is their an error within the code that is preventing the combo box to work in such manner ...

Forms :: Use Query Name Variable Instead Of Contents Of Name

Apr 19, 2014

I have defined a recordsource based on a predefined query. Now I intend to use the SQL statement which works to produce other recordsources based on other queries. More concretely here is my code as of now:

Code:
Dim J1 As Long
Dim SQLRecordSource As String
J1 = Forms(ParName).MemID
SQLRecordSource = "SELECT DISTINCTROW [MembersTbl].* FROM [MembersTbl]" & _
"INNER JOIN [ActiveMembersQy] ON " & _
"[MembersTbl].[MemID] = [ActiveMembersQy].[MemID] " & _
" WHERE [ActiveMembersQy].[MemID] = " & J1 & ";"

In the future instead of writing it like this:

Code:
Select Case QryName
Case "NonMembersQy"
SQLRecordSource = "SELECT DISTINCTROW [MembersTbl].* FROM [MembersTbl]" & _
"INNER JOIN [NonMembersQy] ON " & _
"[MembersTbl].[MemID] = [NonMembersQy].[MemID] " & _
" WHERE [NonMembersQy].[MemID] = " & J1 & ";"

[Code] ....

I wish to write it like this (which does not work):

Code:
SQLRecordSource = "SELECT DISTINCTROW MembersTbl.* FROM MembersTbl" & _
"INNER JOIN QryName ON " & _
"MembersTbl.[MemID] = QryName.[MemID] " & _
" WHERE QryName.[MemID] = " & J1 & ";"

Is this possible ie put the name of the variable that holds the name of the query in quotes or sometimes put the name of the query instead of the contents of the name. If there is a contents function for variables in VBA that can be used by I doubt whether it exists.

Forms :: How To Add Listbox Contents To A Subform

May 11, 2015

I have five list boxes set to a table in my database. Here is what a few rows in my table look like...

ID IngredientName IngredientType Cost
1 Ham Meat $1.23
2 Beef Meat $3.45
...... ....
27 Lettuce Vegetable $0.22
28 Onion Vegetable $0.12
..... ....
38 Mayonaise Sauce $0.13

The five listbox controls each show the list by the IngredientType, so one listbox shows vegetables, another Meat, and so on. Multi-select is turned on for each listbox. Here is what I want to do: In the form I want to have a subform that will show what the user clicks in listboxes. This running list, with an extra column next to it that will accept a number. Example: say the user selects 'Ham' from the meat listbox. The subform should then show 'Ham' and a space next to it where he can type an integer (allowing for more meat).

Subform:

Ham | 2
Lettuce | 1
Mayo | 1
Subroll | 1

If the user de-selects the item in the listbox I'd like the subform to delete the item from itself.

Forms :: Mirror Contents Of Listbox In A Textbox

Aug 14, 2014

I have a drop down box where I select a Retailer. When this choice is made I want the last invoice entry to appear in a text box. I have attempted this by creating a query which contains the top 1 invoice in descending order. My dropdown box Event updates a hidden List box using List677. Requery and List677 has a SELECT statement in Row Source

So far so good this bit works

I want to use this value as a default in a Textbox. I thought I could use the same trick to populate the Textbox as I did the Listbox so i tried Text232. Requery after the List677. Requery in the Event above. But no it does not update. The only time the textbox updates is if the Listbox is in Focus and as I said this List box is Hidden. How can I get the textbox to change in real time... I would use the Listbox but i need to be able to change the value of the contents to run reports, I just want a default value.

textBox Default Value: =[List677]
textBox Control Source: =[List677]

List677 Row Source: SELECT LastInvoice.Invoice FROM LastInvoice;

Contents Of A Field Based On The Contents Of Another Field

Jul 14, 2006

Hi,
I'm making a form where the contents of a field is determined on the contents of another field in another form. I thought an IIF function would work, but when I tried it the contents says #NAME.

I put it in the control source.

IIF([Forms]![Frm_NewBusiness]![Page4]![Child51]="NTU",NewBusiness_Date_Issued="NTU",NewBusiness_Date_Issued)

Any ideas?

Cheers,
