Forms :: Blank List Box Defaults To First Name On List
Feb 2, 2014I have a Form that links to a List Box which pulls from a combined (concatenated?) list. The list it is pulling from appears as follows: SELECT [Rank]+" "+[Last Name]+", "+[First Name] AS Expr1 FROM [T_Personnel Information]; My issue is that the Field in the Form that pulls from the Field in the Table defaults to the first name on the list when left blank, where as I want it to default to a blank value unless I select a name from the list.
View 1 Replies View RelatedForms :: Filter List Box From Other List Box Selections
Jul 15, 2015I have a form with 2 list boxes, part number and modification. There is a subform containing another list box that is supposed to show the part information (bpn,vendor,status,etc.) that corresponds to the selected part number/modification in the parent form list boxes.
The part info list box has multiselect enabled and what i want to is be able to select multiple line items and press a button which then sets all of the selected line items status to "Request Removal". This is my code for the button:
Private Sub removeButton_Click()
Dim varItem As Variant
With Me.acbModList
For Each varItem In .ItemsSelected
MsgBox (Me.Status.Value & Me.[Part Number].Value)
Me.Status = 6
Next
End With
End Sub
The msgbox was for debugging purposes. Here's my issue; the for each actually does iterate through each selected item but the value for the line item doesn't change along with it. For example, when I selected 3 items, the msgbox will pop up 3 times but each time will have the same information (first item in the table) even when that item isn't selected.
My next issue is that I am receiving an error message with "Me.Status = 6" stating "You cant assign a value to this object". 6 refers to the id of the status i want to set it to.
Forms :: Using One Dropdown List Box To Display A Selecting In Another Dropdown List Box?
Aug 4, 2014I have a form where I have two drop down list box.The first list box is called Transaction_Type. It contains three values: Created, Allocated and Sold
The second list box is called Product_Status. It contains 6 items: Allocated, Produced, Reworked, Shipped, To Be Produced, Unallocated.
I have a products form. When a user created more inventory they will selected in the drop down list create, then a quantity. Then I would like the status of the product to update to "Unallocated".
When the user placed an order but doesn't finish it they will choose the status of the inventory to be allocated so I would like the product status to be updated to allocated automatically.
They other status the user will choose them self and do not need to be linked to each other.
In my vba code I have tried with the OnClick and AfterUpdate sub procedures with the following code.
If Me.Transaction_Type.Value = "Created" Then
Me.Product_Status.Value = "Unallocated"
End If
If Me.Transaction_Type.Value = "Allocated" Then
Me.Product_Status.Value = "Allocated"
End If
Yes when i select "created" from the drop down list it does not change product_status to say "unallocated"

Dec 21, 2006HI hope you can help me!
I'm wanting to create drop down lists that are filtered as a result of a previous field, but not having much luck!
I've tried using a query to do this, but not having any luck! am i going down the right path?
Do i need a new query for each list, or can they all run off one query?
How can i refresh the list if a previous field is updated?
Additionally where there is only 1 option (similar to a lookup in excel) how can i set this without using a list box?
Hope that in the xmas spirit, my job is safe!!
Merry xmas to all.

List Boxes In Forms. Help Please! :)
Jun 7, 2005I am having a lot of trouble trying to understand List Boxes in general and am hoping someone can explain them for me.
My problem is I have a database where a user has one unique ID number, but they can have several departments that they can be linked to in another table. I'd like to be able to have the various departments listed in a List Box with the departments that the user is linked to automatically selected when viewing the form.
Then if I was to add a new user, I'd select each department by using the Multi Select feature and add those details to the existing database.
Does this work or am I way off track here?
I hope that makes sense. My experience to date has been creating tables in Access. Everything else is new to me.
Thanks in advance. :)

Forms :: Filtering A List Box?
Jun 15, 2013I have a list box which gets it's data from a query. I would like to filter this query to show only those rows matching a value displayed on the form.
The form displays data from a table and has a text box named PIDLocal.
The query returns a list of PID values and some text SELECT PID, Country, RefCode FROM Query1 The PIDs are integers.
I want the list box to contain only those rows where PID = PIDLocal.
I have tried setting the criteria in the row source query to PID = [Forms]![Show_Details]![PIDLocal], but nothing is returned. If I 'hard-code' a value (eg PID=247) I get the desired result.

View 3 Replies View RelatedForms :: How To Tell If A List Box Has Focus
Aug 1, 2015i have a button that allows you to "edit" the show that is selected. You can double click the show name from the list box, and it opens that show in viewing mode, but you cant edit it. You can click the edit show button in the form that you view the show with, but I want to be able to edit that show from the main form with the list box. But, the problem im having, is if someone clicks the "Edit show" button without have a show selected, they get a error.
If lstShows has focus Then
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmEventsEdit", , , "EventID = " & Me.lstShows
Else
'do nothing, since having no code here, it does nothing
End If
End Sub
That is what I want, but I cant get access to open that show up if its selected.I need to be able to tell if it has focus on it, and to open that selected show up.
Dropdown List Boxes In Forms
Feb 8, 2005I am trying to put a DROPDOWN LIST BOX in a access 2003 form, NOT a combo box. I only need this so I can disallow users from manually entering data into the combo box by typing it in. I want them only to be able to choose it from a list. I think that a LISTBOX is the only way to do this, other that using a straight list box, which would use too much room. However I cannot find any way to add this to a form. Any thoughts?
Thanks,

I would like to create anther format of report to suit other purpose. Can I add the selection of these two reports apart from the selection of engineer name.

Forms :: Moving Items From One List Box To Another
Jul 16, 2015I have a form where there are 2 list boxes: Part_List and acbPartList. acbPartList has multiselect enabled and what I want to do is be able to select multipler records in that list box and then press a button to add those selected records into the other list box. Here is my code for my button:
Private Sub addItemButton_Click()

For Each varItem In .ItemsSelected
Me.Part_List.AddItem (varItem)
Next
End With
Me.Part_List.Requery
Me.Refresh

I'm not sure if passing varItem is correct, but regardless, it isn't working because Part_List is based off of a query, its not a value list.

Forms :: Filtering (All) From Combo Box Value List?
Jul 19, 2013I have a combo box on a form which has a row source type of Value List in which I've manually typed in 2 entries: Owned, Leased.
I have a query which filters on the results of the combobox, and works fine for when I select either option Owned or Leased.
Is there an easy way to filter all (both Owned & Leased)? I've tried leaving the combobox blank, and tried entering a * in the value list, but they both return no results.
Code:
SELECT Assets.*
FROM Assets
WHERE (((Assets.Possession)=[Forms]![Home]![Combo56]));
