It is an Access 2000 database I think.

Also, how do you get access to open all the windows, tables, queries etc in full screen mode.

Forms :: Editing A Forms Control Source To Update A Field In A Table
May 28, 2013I have created a table for installer invoicing, and have a field for invoice amount. I have created a user input form that allows a user to fill in certain pay rates for different aspects of installation, and would like to know how to make the invoice amount a calculated control that will auto update the field InvoiceAmt in my table. I can't figure out how to do this in the property sheet.
View 3 Replies View RelatedEditing Records With Forms
Oct 24, 2005Hi everybody,
I have a large problem which I can't figure out (well 2 actually but the other is less important):
1) I have a form which brings up the results of a search performed by the user (only contains some fields). From this list of results i would like the user to be able to a) see a full report of that Record (which I've done ok) and b) edit the data contained in that Record.
My results form opens the editing form no problems, however, i cannot edit any of the data contained within it. This only occurs when the results form is open as well so i guess it's because there are two instances of those fields open simultaneously. However, I am reluctant to close the results form because the results will be lost.
2) I've tried several methods to open the form at the desired record:
- using the WHERE condition argument of the OpenForm function
- creating a filter in the editing form that runs in the OnOpen event
These two require the creation of a variable (I'm using the Key field) that is inserted into these bits of code. However, all of my attempts thus far have been unsuccessful; every time it asks for the Parameter in a popup. I've defined the variable as a Public variable in a seperate module but don't really understand this aspect partcularly well; I'm obviously missing something.
- the form currently opens from it's own query that gets the Key Field Criteria form a hidden control on the results form.
Here is my code for the 'Edit' button:
Public stProjectID As String
'Results form 'Edit' button click:
Private Sub btnEdit_Click()
stProjectID = txtID2
[Forms]![frmResults].Visible = False
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmProjectEdit", acNormal
End Sub
'Edit' form open:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.Filter = "ProjectID = stProjectID"
FilterOn = True
End Sub
Sorry for waffling on...
Thanks in advance for your help.

Forms :: Recordset Viewing / Editing In Forms
Aug 22, 2014I am trying to create a (normally simple) application, but not having a solid grasp on the concepts of recordsets. The application is serial number tracking for appliances.
The functionality needs to be able to:Search for serial numbers using partial strings (i.e. serial # "T12395723K39" can be located by entering "3K3")
If the serial number does not already exist, allow for adding it.
If data was added erroneously, allow editing to correct it.
The first 2 points are complete but I am struggling with the last. After a user performs a search, I store the results of that search to a temporary table for easy viewing of applicable records.
To allow someone to edit, they simply double click on one of those records to open a seperate form and edit.
When I displayed the content of the temporary table in the form for editing, I found it was not updating the original table.
When I create a separate recordset, using the values of the record selected, the recordset appears to be empty, therefore not displaying the correct record for editing.
My main table name is "SerialNumbers". The code below is triggered when the user double clicks on the desired record to edit.
Private Sub Claim_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
'************************************************* ********************
'* Subroutine to take values from search results for editing record. *
'************************************************* ********************
'Initializing variables
Dim ClaimNo, ApplianceName, SerialNo, MakeName, ModelNo, sqlstr As String

Forms :: Editing Records Through A Form
Aug 13, 2014Just a general query about the best approach to take for an editing form.
I want to have two separate forms, one for adding a new record (have completed this) and one for choosing and then editing a selected record.
I have seen that people use combo boxes to display a list of records with fields. This seems quite difficult to use. Maybe that's the best way though?
How do you apply an edit button to a selected record in this type of situation? I suppose really I need a box that has a list of records with a little edit button next to each one, or can I do something that launches the edit form as soon as you click on a specific record?
Forms :: Editing Unbound Listbox
Aug 20, 2013I want to be able to edit an unbound listbox. The box consists of two cloumn, PersonsName and NoOfDogs. The PesonsName is would be edited from the Contacts form if it needed editing, which is fine as would the number of dogs that they owned. The listbox is on a form that shows how many people are going to an event and how many dogs each person is bringing with them (not always the amount that they own).
When the person says that they are attending an event they may not, at that point know how many dogs they are bringing so the user would update that information later. The easiest place to be able to do that is by editing that coloumn in the listbox. I understand that this means editing the table that feeds that listbox which is fine.
I just want to simply be able to click on the name in the listbox and edit the No Of Dogs for that person.
Forms :: Subform For Editing And New Records?
Nov 1, 2013I've got a master form, which is used to search for records, and display links to them in a list box. When the user selects a record, they get the full details of the record on a subform. At the top of the subform, I have two buttons, an edit button, which allows them to make changes to the record, and a "new" button, which allows them to create a new record.
My problem is, after a new record is created, the subform adds a new page. So instead of having record one of 1, it shows record 2 of 2. So if a new record is saved, and the user tries to access another record, nothing appears because the subform stays on record 2 of 2(which is a blank undirtied record). If you press navigation button back it will show the record they selected.
Maybe I could make the new form a pop up form, and pass it parameters rather than making a new form within the subform.
I've tried putting the command DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acPrevious in the subforms Current() method, but I get an error saying I cannot go to the previous record.

Forms :: Screen Doesn't Refresh
Feb 17, 2014I have the following code (simplified) :
ContextObject
.FileName = strPrefix & .StockNumber
If .Dirty Then
.Dirty = False
End If
' .Refresh
End With
Stepping through with the debugger, the ".Dirty=False" statement is executed, but the screen does not refresh. If I comment out the "If .Dirty ..." block and comment in the ".Refresh", then the screen does refresh with the new value - but of course that needlessly refreshes all the other records on the form.
Help Me With Code For Adding And Editing Records Using Forms.
Jan 29, 2006Hi,
I have the following situation.
I have a switchboard form which has 2 buttons (Add And Edit)
I have a patient record form, which has 2 fields, (DateRecCaptured and DateRecUpdated)
Both buttons on the switchboard open the Patient Record form (one opens it in Add mode and the other in Edit mode)
This is what should happen.
If I click on the add button on the switchboard, the patient record form should open to allow me to add a record. The system date should then automatically be saved in the DateRecCaptured field.
If i click on the Edit button and edit a record, the system date should be saved in the DateRecUpdated field. If no updates are made, the field shouldn't be updated. If you scroll among records, the DateRecUpdated field shouldn't be updated. When editing, the DateRecCaptured field should remain unchanged.
Thanx
Forms :: Editing Query Fields In A Form
May 1, 2013I have produced a table, the records from which have to be selected by individuals for auditing purposes.
I created a second table with individuals initials and passwords. This is linked by the initials to the main table. Records on the main table are returned when the query is run.
At first I could not edit fields in the query but changed the recordset type to Dynaset (inconsistent). I am now able to edit the query fields. However, having created a form based on the query, I am unable to edit the fields in the form. This is the basis that the auditors will use to score so is vital. Have I missed any other switches or techniques?
Forms :: Form Filter Will Not Accept Editing
Sep 11, 2013I have a table fed form that will not accept editing to the filter statement.
Currently the filter is [Dealer Name]='ABC Company'
This is causing a problem because we have multiple locations with the same Dealer Name. They do however, have different Primary Account numbers.
I thought to edit the filter to [Primary Account]=102
However, after I save everything and go back to form view, the filter reverts to the original.
Forms :: Editing Record Details Not Allowed
Sep 28, 2014I have had a form working for ages. It has a main form and eight subforms at the bottom of the form. The main form can be edited in all fields.
I have taken a copy, modified the form added new fields to the main source table and updated the query that feeds the form.
Now (in the copy environment) it won't allow me to edit any of the fields. All of the form control properties are the same as the working model (in the live environment) I can run the query by itself and all is OK
There is obviously some little control that I have inadvertently changed and can't see it.
Forms :: Combo Box To Select Record For Editing?
Jun 13, 2013I have a form that uses a combo box to select the record to edit which then opens the edit form... I keep getting a type mismatch error. The bound column is a text column and I'm wondering if that is the problem because this works perfectly everywhere else in the database. The primary key is the SKU of the product which is alphanumeric which is why I have it set to text...

View 3 Replies View RelatedAccess Screen Freezes Then The Forms Don't Work
Aug 9, 2005This happened yesterday at work.
The access form froze and they could do other things but Access remained frozen. They logged off and when they went back in Access opened but none of the form buttons or links were working.
The database is not split because it is used only by one station at a time.
Has this happened to anyone and does anyone know the cause?
Five people were trying to fix it when I walked into work (5 people who no nothing about Access other than using that one database) and I couldn't get a straight answer.
Thanks
