Forms :: How To Make Form To Always Open To New Entry Only

Jul 15, 2013

Is there any setting that I can use that will make a form always open to a new entry?

I don't want people to be able to edit the form.

On the form I have created a New form button and a Save and clear button, but i would prefer it to be that when they open the form its always a new entry and when they hit save it just save and clears and comes back to a new entry form.

These are my buttons.

Code:
Private Sub Command103_Click()
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdRecordsGoToNew
End Sub

Private Sub Command90_Click()
RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
Me.Requery
End Sub

Forms :: Open Form From (Edit List Items) Option In Data Entry Mode

Feb 4, 2014

I have several comboboxes in my database from which users select values. However, in most cases, I do want to give them the option to add an item that does not appear while simultaneously updating the underlying table which stores those dropdown values. I have made use of the builtin "allow edit list items" feature of Access 2007 but the form always opens on the first record of the form on which they are to add the new item. Is there a way to specify that it should open in Data Entry view apart from using VBA?

Forms :: How To Make A Text Box Entry Required

Nov 27, 2014

I know how to make a text box entry "required" such that one cannot exit a record until a value is entered but cannot figure out how to make it required only if another field on the form has an entry. None of the form events seem to support that when focus moves to another record as far as I can tell. What I want to do is display an error message if the condition is not met on exiting a record but to also remain on (or go back to) that record so the required text box entry can then be made.

Modules & VBA :: Make Form Skip Record That Someone Else Already Has Open?

Apr 15, 2015

i've been working on a sample database today that someone has written some vb code into, which enables the database to merge with some dialler software. basically it's just a hang up and dial button on a form for surveying people.

i've done ok extracting the code for the dial and hangup buttons, referencing the external file and getting my test database to interface with the dialler but it currently allows multiple users to edit the same record, which i need to stop it doing.

the guy that's done the coding says he's more of a vb programmer and not much use in access (he's definitely better than me!) but i should be able to insert some code that will skip to the next record if the record is being worked on with someone else.

i think the piece of code that i need is

Forms("Form1").RecordLocks = 2

the only problem is i don't know what else to type with it or where in the code to insert it.

Forms :: Combo Box To Verify With Last Entry And Display Other Options Than Last Entry

Sep 8, 2013

I am working on creating an access database for tracking physical assets linked to locations. I need to make a combo box list to show items other than the current location of the asset. Basically I need it to refer to last enery of the user and define the new possible entries. so we have a unique relationship between location and asset. The assets and location will always remain fixed and there is never going to be any addition. I am creating a web form so that it can be uploaded into sharepoint.

Forms :: Choose Next In Sequence Via Form Entry

Mar 20, 2013

Any way to automatically choose next in sequence via form entry in Access 2007.We currently have an excel spreadsheet tracking who attends review meetings for new products. There are 12 people who are eligible to attend the meeting, and the next person in the sequence should be chosen when a new meeting is scheduled. I'll be adding this to an existing database with an "associate" table- where each associate name is assigned a numeric value, if this can even be done.

The problem is that the logical order may not always be followed. Associate 8 might be up next but be on vacation, so Associate 9 is sent in their place. We can't skip over Assoc. 8 completely so we'll go back to them once they're back in the office, but we don't want 9 being sent to the next one after that again. Or the manager might determine one associate has more knowledge in the area of the new product being presented and send them out of order. In Excel it's easy to see who is up or who has been skipped, but in single-form data entry in Access the pattern won't be visible.

Feb 3, 2014

I can't work out how to update the selections available in a combo box as follows: I use a combo box in a main form to select a record (yacht) If it's a new yacht then I use an event linked to a button to call another form to add the new Yacht On exiting the Yacht Maintenance form I return to the main form The combo box in the main form doesn't list the yacht i just added unless I exit and re-load the form

I'm not sure of the best way to refresh the combo box selections or main form without exiting.

Forms :: Create A Form To Be Used For Data Entry

Apr 5, 2015

I have created a form to be used for data entry, Where i have identified standard data, I have set the Combo Box on the form to be a "Value List" so as to standardise the data entry.This creates two problems for me.

1. When Using the form, instead of saving the text value to my table it is entering a numerical character?

2. On two of my combo boxes, whilst they have been configured the same, when i try to select an option for the list, it does not accept it? when i try to type the same option into the field of the form it tells me that the option is not in the list?

Forms :: Prevent Duplication In Form Entry

Jul 7, 2014

I've been trying to use some code I've found to prevent a user from entering a duplicate ID. I've tried this:

Dim Answer As Variant Answer = DLookup("[SAR_ID]", "Request", "[SAR_ID] = '" & Me.SAR_ID & "'")
If Not IsNull(Answer) Then MsgBox "Duplicate SAR ID Found" & vbCrLf & "Please enter again.", vbCritical + vbOKOnly + vbDefaultButton1, "Duplicate"

Cancel = True Me.SAR_ID.Undo
Else:
End If

but it displays the message even if I don't enter a duplicate.

Forms :: Combo Box On Data Entry Form

Oct 9, 2013

I'm trying to create a Data Entry only form based on a small table called tblProject.

It consist of the fields Project_ID, Artist_ID, Project_Name, and Project_Notes.

I used the wizard to get me started and i know how to change the form to data entry only, but the problem is the vague data in the Artist_ID control. It shows up as a number, because it is an FK to another table (tblArtist) where more details on the artist are held. (including Band_Name)

I want to be able to make it a combobox with a list of the Band_Names from the tblArtist table. This would make creating "a new project" much easier.

Forms :: Form Entry With Multiple Tables?

Jul 19, 2013

I am currently working on a form that involves several linked tables. Since our personnel got so used to a certain form format, I have scanned the form and imported into an access form as a background and have laid corresponding fields on top.(I have attached a snapshot of the form). This works great for a view only form, but I can't seem to add/edit records using this form because of the table relationship. I have done some research, and found that one way to get around this problem is to use subforms, but that would kill the form format. Another way I have seen (which I am not sure how to do) is to have a temporary field and once you hit the submit button it will then fill out the tables.

Forms :: Data Entry Form - Set Focus On Tab Control

Sep 10, 2014

On my data entry form I have a tab control with three pages

At the bottom of the first page I have a sub form with 3 fields

Currently, when tabbing, the focus runs through the fields as per the tab order

BUT

Once it gets to the subform (datasheet view) it jumps into the first field of the first record rather than the first 'empty cell' thereby starting a new record in the datasheet.

Once the three fields in the datasheet are completed the focus tabs back to the top of the first page of the form rather than onto the next page of the form

How to correctly reference controls using VBA so I could SetFocus where I want?

The Main form is called frm_Admissions

It has three pages called Patient, Treatment & Service Providers

Patient has a subform called sub_Cluster (which may or may not hold Cluster Information)

I would like the tab order to jump from the last textbox on the form into the first field of a new record in the datasheet (rather than the first field of any existing records)

Once it has finished in the datasheet I need to tab to the first field/textbox in the Treatment's page of the form rather than back to the first field/textbox in the Patient's page.

Forms :: Convert String To Number On Entry In Form

Mar 30, 2013

I have a form that takes input to the first, indexed, field from a barcode reader (and keyboard at a pinch). The data coming in has always been numeric so I have several checks in place to ensure it is numberic (field specification) and also that it lays in a predefined range. All works well! I've now been asked to enable this to work with a single letter prefix e.g. T1234567.

As there are many forms which use this same field I'd like to keep it numeric and as the prefix won't change I can add it later using a query. Is there a way to programatically strip the first letter from the string and use CLng() to convert to numeric using the on entry Event Procedure? All my other validation is here but I can't see a way to do this. Failing that, can I use an unbound text box to take the entry and set the index field?

Forms :: Creating Data Entry Form With Hierarchy

Dec 6, 2013

I am tasked with creating a scientific database of fish catches at various different sampling stations. I envisage the entry form having a hierarchy, ie year, season, date, sample station, species caught, and then the specific associated data with each species (weight, abundance, length etc) will be a distinct record.

As fas as data entry is concerned, I would like the user to not have to re-enter the same information over and over when entering multiple species entries at the same sampling station, on the same date and so on up the hierarchy.
