Forms :: How To Know If A Button Was Pressed At Beginning Of Field AfterUpdate
Aug 8, 2013
Here is my problem
In namefield_AfterUpdate, I check for duplicate name entries and notify the user if any are found - they are prompted as to whether the duplicate was accidental or intentional and continue working. This works fine for normal circumstances.
However, if the user updates namefield so that the value is a duplicate of an existing name in the database, but then presses Cancel (or Delete), then the namefield_AfterUpdate is fired and what button they pressed. The button Click code does not run first.
How can I tell if the user updated the name, but then realized they didn't want to save, and then clicked 'Cancel' (or any button) and the code should really skip the duplicate check validations/messages?

I have a form which displays some product details and a stock level. The subform below it allows entry of a quantity to issue and a control button to run a small macro, write a movement record to a stock movement table and then close the form. This works fine.
But the user can also cause the movement record to be written just by keying in a quantity and tabbing out. If this is done several times it writes several movement records and doesn't close the form. I want to ensure that record is only written when the command button is pressed.
Perhaps there is a more conventional or better way of achieving what I want but I can't think of it.

So what I've basically got here is a form with 4 combo boxes and a button that when clicked will filter the results of a table (which is a subform/subreport) based on the values inside the combo boxes. So the problem I have is that when I open up the form it displays a fully filled table but I just want to display the row names and a blank table until the filter button is pressed.

I have several comboxes where I'm using date/time input masks. When I go to enter data in the field the cursor is situated at the right end of the box. I have to backspace to the beginning of the field to enter the data. How do I position the cursor to the beginning (left side) of the field?

I have an option group with 2 buttons in it, yes and no. It is set to default to No, but if someone hits Yes I want it to enable or turn on the next option group. Would just simply changing visible status disable it? Because I have a series of codes set up based on the second option group which read as:
Code:
Private Sub NumberOfAdditionalSites_Option1_GotFocus()
Me.AdditionalSitesLabel1.Visible = True
Me.AdditionalSitesText1.Visible = True
End Sub
[Code] .....
I do not want these to be visible if the initial option group is still set to no.

I have a combo box, 'Type' that has two values - "Instrument" and "Equipment".Another combo box control, 'Criticality', has an Enabled = False value set OnCurrent.
When the user selects "Equipment", Criticality goes Enabled = True and when OnUpdate to "Instrument", Criticality goes Enabled = False.The Criticality field correctly displays and switches off if someone selects Instrument.
However, if someone puts a value in whilst Type is set to "Equipment" and then Type is reset to "Instrument" and in the meantime the user has selected a value for Criticality, the value stays 'stuck' in the Criticality box, despite the field being disabled. It is a bound field.How do I purge any contents stored in Criticality when the field is disabled? I presume it's something like an SQL statement to set the value to null, but I'm not quite certain.

I have a form with a control for the user to enter some data and then two command buttons 'OK' and 'Cancel'
For the OnExit event in the control I have a procedure that check the user input and if incorrect, opens a message box with an error message asking the user to correct the data. It then cancels the event so the focus remains in the current control.
However if the user presses the 'Cancel' command button on the form to cancel & close the form, the OnExit event for the current control still fires and asks the user to correct the data.
In my code in the control, how can I recognise that the Cancel command button has been pressed, so I can cancel the OnExit event and close the form?

Right now on a form I have code that runs when the used DoubleClick on that field. Users want to have the code run when the EnterKey is pressed as well but when putting the code in the onEnter command line it would run the code when you tab thru the field.

I'm looking for a simple routine, preferably in the On Key Down or or On Key Press event of a form to quickly navigate to a record based on the key pressed.
I have a form with names in a table layout (continuous form).If the user is on the name field, I'd like it to navigate to the first record that contains first letter of the key pressed. So if a user presses "K", the form will go to the first record that starts with a K.Yes, the names in the form are alphabetical, but in a list with over 100 names, this could speed things up just a bit and save a lot of scrolling and looking.I was thinking of using KeyCode and I already have an event to navigate by the arrow keys so I'm considering building on that.
Code:
If KeyCode = 40 Then ' Down arrow
DoCmd.GoToRecord acForm, Me.Name, acNext
ElseIf KeyCode = 38 Then ' Up arrow
DoCmd.GoToRecord acForm, Me.Name, acPrevious
End If
I am thinking to use a Select Case and add the key codes for all the letters.

I have a default text value in a field. When I tab to go that field, it is highlighted. But for this specific field I want to go to show the cursor to the left of the text and with it unhighlighted, so I can add text to the beginning.
How can I do this?

I have done a half-dozen searches and only gotten 1 option.
There is a simple way to have the cursor at the beginning or end of a field when it arrives in a new field.
I saw the VBA code aboyt setting the length. There is an easier, simpler way to set it so that you don't have to apply the vba code to every single indiviual field.
I remember learning about it here on this forum, but now can't find it.
Can anyone remember how to do this?
Thanks in advance,

I have a text field called Notes - where we will add notes about the particular job. What I want to do is have it a locked field with a button 'Add Notes'. When clicked it will insert the date and the user name of the person and then let them type the notes. When they move to the next record - I want that field to be locked again.
I've got some of it down but still not right. I can get it so it inserts the date but it overwrites what is already there. How can I get it to just add the data - not overwrite? And I can't get it to lock when they move to the next record.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jason

I created an update query to a text field in a table. However, it inserts the data at the end of the string and I need to insert it at the beginning of the string that already exists. How do I move it to the front instead of the end?
This works but puts it at the end:
[Field Name] & "BlahBlah"

I'm having trouble with a field on my DB. I have a field named zip code. It has a limit of 5 characters that are only number values, I'm not having any trouble with entering information at all, it's easiest when I just tab into the cell from the previous one. However, the part I am having trouble with is when I click within the field and the cursor, let's say, is at the second character line, and I enter the zipcode 15222, it'll only enter 1522 since my cursor is at the second line.
How can I fix this so that wherever my cursor is, within the box it'll type the full 5 digit zip code? My boss is insistent on making sure that even if he clicks towards the right of the box, it should type the full number.

I only want the user to be able to enter 9 numbers into the field including 0 in the beginning if needed.
I have this code in at the moment "Is Null OR Between 100000000 And 999999999", however if the number starts with a 0, it doesn't include it.
Else I'll just use an Input Mask

Hi all.
Benn looking through other posts and have found some things which look quite similar but nothing which answers the question simply enough for my standard!
Basically I have a form with 5 fields...Number, Name, Location, Date and Owner.
All fields are locked apart from Location and Date.
I have a combo box which lists the field "Number" and then displays the record's data. The aim of the form is to be able to update the Location field easily.
A user entering the form would use the combo box to select say number "3243". This would bring up record number 3243. The date displayed would be the last updated date. Currently 23/08/05. I am trying desperately to get the Date to refresh to the current date as soon as someone changes the "Location" field. I have tried putting in the AfterUpdate part of Location...Me.Date.Requery.
I feel that I may be well off track but that the answer I require is not too difficult. Please could someone advise?!?!
TIA.
--Update--
Think I've sorted it now everyone!!
My code looks like this, seems to do the trick.
Private Sub Combo15_AfterUpdate()
Me.Date = Format(Now(), "dd/mm/yy")
End Sub
I guess I should learn to try my hardest before posting here!! :)

I have a form with (among others) a Y/N field and a multivalued field. The Y/N field indicates whether or not the resident is year-round or not (seasonal/snowbird). The multivalued field contains the months the resident it here. The user wants me to auto-select all months in the multivalued vield when the year-round field is set to yes in order to minimize data entry.
I have been trying to use an AfterUpdate Event using the following syntaxes as a test but Access doesn't like the format at all:
[Master Table].[Months Available].[Value] = "June" (this gives 2465 error)
Me ! [Months Available].[Value] = "June" (this gives a 424 error)
I'm not at all fluent with VBA but have been successful in populating form fields using data fields in another table so thought this would be similar.
Any way other than not to use multivalued fields? Because that isn't an option.

I have a form with a combox control that is bound to a table. It is a status field. When the status changes, I would like to take the OldValue of both the status combobox and the status date and move them to a table that when accessed will show a history of the prior status and corresponding dates.

So I have a bound form with the following onload code:
Code:
'Add the percent completed to lblPercentCompleted by calling the function
Dim Completed As Double
[code]...
This works fine and set the caption and color of a label on this form.On this form I have several (now only a few, but in the end probably 40 controls or so) which will get updated by the user. When any of these controls are updated, I want the label lblpercentCompleted to get updated with the propper caption and color, however I am having trouble doing this.
I have an afterupdate event on each control with the same code as the onload code, however the message box below appears but the label does not update.
Code:
Private Sub TransferDieCutsOn_AfterUpdate()
MsgBox "Updating Label"
'Add the percent completed to lblPercentCompleted by calling the function
Dim Completed As Double
[code]...

In ACC2010: A subform has a control for date of birth with an AfterUpdate Event. When the date picker is used to populate the control the user must either click outside the control or press the tab key to trigger the control's AfterUpdate event. This event runs some calculations, the results of which are stored in a separate table. When the calculations are finished and focus returns to the form, the form's state depends on whether a keypress or a mouse click was used to trigger the event.
The form's state is indicated by whether calculated controls on the form are empty - mouse clicks leave contents as before the event, tab causes the contents to disappear. In addition, if a keypress is used the user must click twice to trigger the form's BeforeUpdate event. A single click is required to trigger that event if a mouse click occurred after using the date picker.
How to get thekeypress to behave the same as a mouse click?

I have a form that has a Combo box record selector which works fine. I need to add more to the Where condition of this macro.
Combo1 - Options 1-Facility, 2-Physician (referral_type)
Combo2 - Record selector that works, either shows a list of facilities or list of physicians.
Macro SearchForRecord - Where Condition ="[fac_id] = " & Str(Nz([Screen].[ActiveControl].[Column](0),0))
Would like it to be
="[fac_id] = " & Str(Nz([Screen].[ActiveControl].[Column](0),0)) AND [referral_type] = Me!Combo2
Have tried a few different things with no luck.
