Forms :: Lock Fields Once Record Is Closed

Aug 29, 2013

I have several forms in my database that have a closed (1=Closed) option button. Is there a way to make all of the fields for that record readonly if the closed option is set to equal 1?

Forms :: Temporarily Lock Form Field In A New Record

Jun 13, 2013

I would like to be able to lock a form's field temporarily until certain information has been added to other fields. Once the required fields are complete, I want to be able to allow the field to be updated.

Here is a simplified version of the table fields (only including relevant fields):

tblContacts
LastName (Text, Required field, Duplicates OK)
FirstName (Text, Required field, Duplicates OK)
CurrentEmployee (Yes/No field)

Basically, I don't want the user to be able to update the CurrentEmployee field in a new record until the LastName and FirstName fields have been completed.

The reason I want to prevent this is that when CurrentEmployee field is updated, the record is then assigned a ContactID number (PK autoID field) which means that my subform is assigned an ID# and the result is messy if the user decides to abort the creation of the record.

Forms :: Lock Individual Record When Certain Check Box Ticked?

Dec 24, 2013

I want to lock an individual record when a certain check box is ticked so it can't be edited again. I've tried setting the form to read only when this check box is ticked on the form OnCurrent event, but this locked every record and I had to remove the code to untick the check box and be able to edit the record again.

Closed Records - Archive Or Label As Closed?

Oct 17, 2006

Evening All! (Old enough to remember Dixon of Dock Green (stupid enough to mention it!))

I'm working on a small database for a small team of support workers with a
client base of 60 clients at anyone time, although the turnover is quite
substantial.

I have done some searches on archiving records but am concerned that once
archived a record would be difficult to re-integrate in to the live database,
particularly if there have been changes to it?

I have considered that I may be just as well slapping a big label over every
record that has a date in the [CloseDate] field and if a closed case is
re-opened, the closed date is removed and the label disappears.

I'm still open to being convinced that the archiving is the way to go, but
in the mean time I hope someone will be able to help with the expression
needed in the form on_current procedure to make the label visible. If it was
just a tick box I'd be flying by now, but I can't get my head around getting
a populated [CloseDate] field to initiate the CloseRecordLabel.

Thanks in advance
Doug

Forms :: Command Button To Unlock And Lock Fields / Edit Button?

Feb 19, 2014

I have created a web-database (? - There are globes over all the forms and tables icons) based on the Issues & Tasks template. This means that most of the data is entered and seen on the "Main" form, which has two tabs - Open Issues and Closed Issues. I have created a form that allows people at my work to input the necessary data and save it, so that it will show up on one of the two tabs. However, once a record has been created, I want to be initially locked if the ID/PK is clicked, so that data can't be changed or entered inadvertently.

SO, I changed the code so that when the ID/PK for a record is clicked, it brings up a different form, but one that looks exactly like the one that is brought up when entering a new form, but I locked all of the fields so that the information cannot be changed. It seems from what I have read that I can create a button on this form so that when clicked, it unlocks the fields on the form so that they can be changed, and then when clicked again it will lock the fields again. Is this true? If so, how can I do it? Or is there something similar I can do? I have seen codes that I could copy and paste, but I cannot figure out the place to copy and paste codes in Access 2010.

I have changed the Form properties so that Data Entry and all the "Allows" are set to No...

Tables :: Form Not Recognizing A New Record Until Closed And Reopened

Aug 1, 2014

I have a form for which the Record Source is a certain table. Then on that form there is a button to display another form, which adds a new record to the same table. Then the new form is closed.The trouble is, the original form cannot search for the new record, until you close the form and reopen it.I have tried using Me.Dirty is false, and also a requery of the original form, but nothing works. Only closing the form and reopening it will display the newly added record.What can I do to make the original form recognize the newly added record?

Check To See If All Forms Are Closed

Oct 17, 2006

I've been stomping around in the forums for an hour now and I have to ask for some help because I really don't know what it is I am looking for.

I am interested to know if there is a way to write VBA code that reopens my menu form if all other forms have been closed. The database window is hidden in my app and normally when all windows close this will exit Microsoft Access too.

If there's not an easy, established way for this, I'm not really in a spot that requires me to use this, I just wanted to know for future forms.

I guess my real question is how to you build events for the entire database, not just a single form or report?:confused:

General :: How To Count Fields With Records And Lock Them

Feb 11, 2014

I have a terrible skill in this but I am doing my best to find ways. But I am running out of time in the development stage. I have the following form and table:

Tables:
Eqpt
EqptHistory

Forms:
frmEqpt
frmHistory

frmEqpt is the Mother form and frmHistory is the subform connected thru eqptID. Now what I want to do is count the records in the frmHistory and Locked the fields for editing. If it is new records, the fields will automatically unlock.

How do I do that because I can't find a way to count the fields with records and lock them.

Record Lock

Dec 1, 2005

I have a created a database for insurance policies.
I'm using a form in the database to edit the data in the underlying table.
I use "pessimistic lock" in the database and in the form.
The database runs in a multi-user environment.

My question is the folowing:

When a user is editing a record, it is obvious that this record is set to
lock in the table (--> pessimistic lock), but the 4 records that are right before this record
are also locked too!

There is nobody else editing at that same moment in the database and it is
not a one-time occurence!

Can somebody help me out with this one... I'm realy desperite and I
searched the entire forum.

Modules & VBA :: Lock Certain Fields On Form Based On Value In A Particular Field

Aug 4, 2015

I'm trying to lock certain fields on my form based on the value in a particular field. It seems to work the first time but applies itself to all other records in the database from then on!

The starting point is a command button that sends an email and makes Me.DPLLock = 1. The corresponding table entry is formatted as a number.

The code is...

Private Sub Form_Current()
If Me.DPLLock = 1 Then
Me.OR_Name.Locked = True
Me.OR_Sales_Order.Locked = True
Me.OR_WO_No.Locked = True
Me.OR_Qty.Locked = True

[Code] ....

Ive tried Me!DPLLock with the same result.

Record Lock When Appending?

Jul 6, 2015

It should be noted that this is a shared database with the BE on a network. I have a process that allows users to create an Agenda for a meeting. In order to make the process more efficient the user selects a drop down box which then prefills attendees for that meeting. All very simple really, until more than one user attempts to run the process.

The issue is that this process runs a couple of queries. One to filter the attendees and then another to combine this information with the agenda information which is then finally appended to the MASTER Data tbl.

Is there a way that I can stop users using this at the same time by either giving an alert to the new users saying please wait and defer the process until the current process has completed and then the new request starts.

Freeze/lock One Record In Subform

Dec 14, 2004

hi! I asked this question before, and i didn't understand the answer.
I have a form with a subform. at first, i disable the subform until the main form is filled completely. Then, I have a button to enable the subform. This button also disables the main form.
My first line in the subform needs to mirror the info in the main form. To do this, i open a recordset, and then use .AddNew to fill in the details.
I don't want this first line to be edit-able or delete-able once it has been filled. How do I lock it from being edited? Also, if I later decide to delete everything on the form, will i be able to clear the whole form if this line in the subform is locked?
Please helpp
