Forms :: Locking Row Source Fields In Properties Menu?

Mar 5, 2013

Is there a way to lock the row source fields in the properties menu as currently it keeps creating exceptions (WHERE) onto the end of the SQL this is subsequently causing me major issues in the view of the form/datasheet as fields keep appearing as blank when there is actually values stored within the table.

How To Change The Colour And Other Format Properties Of A Menu/ Toolbar?

Oct 9, 2007

Hi All,

If it is possible to change the format properties of a menu/toolbar could someone please point me in the direction of some guidance/ let me know how to go about it I would appreciate it.

Specifically I'm trying to change the menu bar's /database window's property to match my forms (and company branding).

I've Googled various phrases in both UK and US spellings (to be on the safe side) and searched a few forums (this one included) and cannot find much beyond creating customised menu/tool bars.

Many thanks

Forms :: Locking Fields Even If They Have Unsaved Changes

Aug 8, 2013

I have a button on my form which locks (and disables) some fields. by locking and disabling fields, I am able to change the back color of the fields to a "grayed out" look to warn the user that they cannot change the contents of the field.

some of the fields that I have disabled are in fact option buttons and check boxes which have no back color to change, keep this in mind!

So i have a macro that changes ALL of the fields to disabled and locked, as well as their background color.

This causes an error with the check boxes and option boxes so to bipass them I have got the clause "On Error Resume Next" so that my macro continues to complete and finish locking the rest of the form.

With this "On Error Resume Next", If the code reaches a field which has been changed, another error occurs due to a field being changed which blocks the rest of the code from working however why it wont change regardless of the issue, I dont care if the content was saved to a record or not, I just want to put the fields into disabled and locked.

Is there a way I can remove this "You Can't Lock A control while it has unsaved changes" error to ignore that there has been changes? Where the changes just dont matter?

Forms :: Access 2002 - Modifying Properties Of Subform Fields

Feb 2, 2014

I have a Form with embedded Subform, everything works well as far as moving through records. Scrolling through records on main table via Form brings up correct records of child table on Subform, so the link between the 2 tables is done properly.

I use this logic to lock/unlock a field in the subform.

Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
If IsNull(Me.Parent!Spec2) Then
Me!Value2.BorderStyle = Transparent
Me!Value2.SpecialEffect = Flat
Me!Value2.BackStyle = Transparent

[Code] ...

I confirmed with debug that the logic does set the properties properly. They are updated once and that's that. Any further passes through the logic do not update on the form. They do pass through correctly, changes are just ignored.

It doesn't matter if I use the logic from the Form and refer down, or in the Subform and refer up, the Subform never gets updated. I tried Repaint, Refresh, Requery, nothing works. I cannot count the permutations I've tried.

Forms :: Locking Fields In Forms?

Oct 30, 2013

locking entry of data in a form. Attached is the database in which my question lies.

The user first interacts with Table 1, which then leads to the opening of the Personal form (as per the user's wishes). What I would like to do is:

1: To give the user the authority to enter data in those cases where the fields in the Personal form is empty (in the case of the Names). The user should not be able to change any data if these fields are not empty.

2: To give the user the ability to change the Amount (If this figure is Zero) and not to change anything if this amount is not Zero.

Fields Are Locking, But Very Stange

Dec 1, 2005

Hi,

Ok, i have a really stange problem

I have two tables tablea, tableb. They both have the field Line address in which is a number.

However, when i have both these tables in a query and link them on line address the dataview sheet becomes locked. But if i just run a query with tablea on its own, i can write in the dataview and if i just run a query with tableb i can also write in it, but when linked together on line address, it fails

Any ideas?

Thanks

Hello,

I need a little help with locking some fields in a datasheet.

Simply, there are many fields, one of which is a combo which has either Yes/No fields

I would like to lock the records which have a Yes in the field i mentioned.

Ok, what i've tried already. - in on current and after update.
I have also tried this with the Me. function.

if [avail?] = Yes then

Qty.Enabled = True
StockCode.Enabled = True
StockPoint.Enabled = True

Else

Qty.Enabled = False
StockCode.Enabled = False
StockPoint.Enabled = False

end if

This works but locks fields in all the records even when selection is "No".

Any help will be appreciated.

Locking Fields For One Record On A Continuous Form

Jul 22, 2005

How can i apply the following code to the immediate record in my subform. I would like when the assigned check box value = true, then the fields for that record become locked.

Ive written the following code to an onclick event for a check box labeled "assigned" on my form, the problem is it executes on all the records in my form.

Q. How do i apply the code to only the immediate record?


Private Sub Assigned_Click()
If Me.Assigned.Value = True Then
Me.Serial_Number.Enabled = False
Me.Component_Group_ID.Enabled = False
Me.TypeID.Enabled = False

Else
Me.Serial_Number.Enabled = True
Me.Component_Group_ID.Enabled = True

Modules & VBA :: Set Of Fields - Method For Locking Records?

Aug 20, 2013

On my form I have a set of fields that can be displayed as editable or read-only depending on a "Lockout" checkbox for that record.Is there an easier way of doing this? If not, would it be smarter to create a function to do this? As it stands I'm assuming I would have to have this code run when the form loads, when the Lockout box is clicked, and whenever the record is changed just to ensure that the records are displayed as locked or unlocked appropriately.

Here's what I have:

Code:
Private Sub Lockout_Click()
If [Lockout] = True Then
Me![Customer_Text].Enabled = False
Me![ReqDesc_Text].Enabled = False
Me![MoreInfo_Text].Enabled = False

[code]....

Table Column Name Properties/Combo Box Head Properties

Dec 8, 2006

Hi, I would like to change the properties of either the column heads in a combo-box or the column names for tables. I don't think there's any way to adjust the column head properties, and I'm doubtful there's a way to change the column caption properties.

Some of my column titles are long, and I'd like to be able to word wrap them essentially. Anyone know if this is possible? Thanks.

Forms :: Setting Properties In A Subform

Mar 9, 2015

I am trying to get the properties of enabled and locked set in a continuious subform depending on a yes/no field in each record. I have tried using the answer in thread 160062, but this only works when it is not a subform (unless I have done something stupid!)If the main form is frmMain and the continuious subform is frmSub, where am I going wrong with this code which is in the subforms Class Objects?

Private Sub Form_Current() If Me.MaterialIssue = True Then CRMSignOffDate.Enabled = True
CRMSignOffBy.Enabled = True CRMSignOffDate.Locked = False
CRMSignOffBy.Locked = False Else CRMSignOffDate.Enabled = False
CRMSignOffBy.Enabled = False CRMSignOffDate.Locked = True
CRMSignOffBy.Locked = True End IfEnd Submany.

Forms :: Data Properties Appears To Be Overridden

Oct 18, 2013

I have a form called frmElements which has its Data Entry and Allow Additions properties set to 'No' so that only existing records can be edited, this is all good and works fine when used from the Navigation Pane.

I have created a macro which opens this form from a button on the ribbon, this is where the problem lies because it opens the form and allows new records to be added, I know this because there is an empty record with an '*' at the bottom of the form. If I change to design mode the Data Entry and Allow Additions properties are still set to 'No', when I then change back to form view the form functions as it should.

It does not seem possible to set form properties using the macro builder and it appears to override the forms property settings.

I am using access 2010 on a Windows 8 machine.

Forms :: Locking Combo Boxes Using VBA

Jul 12, 2013

Im working in MS Access 2007.I have 3 combo boxes on a form. My goal is simple I would like the 2nd and 3rd comboboxes to be locked unless the user has already chosen selected an item from the 1rst combo box. The code im trying to get working now is in a On_Current event so that when the first combo box has nothing selected, combo box 2 and 3 are locked.

This is my code where
combo box 1 = areabox2
combo box 2 = devbox2
combo box 3 = entitybox2

[code]...

The issue is that the entitybox2 and devbox2 do not lock!

Reference A Fields Values In The Record Source Query

Dec 30, 2007

I have a query on a form that is providing all of the information I need for everything on my form.

The problem is I don't know how to refer to a field's value in the query in VBA without having a hidden text field on the form.

I know I can reference a combo box's query to include criteria such as [Forms]![cboSelectStudent] if the control is actually on the form, but how would I refer to a value in the form's query that doesn't have a control on the form.

I've been searching for everything I can think to call this but haven't been able to come up with anything.

Thanks.

Forms :: Allowing / Locking Edit In A Form

Jul 21, 2013

I'm using Access 2003.I'm trying to create a command for a form that will allow editing or lock all fields, so that records are protected from accidental edits.AllowEdits in the form is set to False by default.I've used the below code to allow a user to unlock the form:

Private Sub cmdEditRecord_Click()
If Me.AllowEdits = False Then
Me.AllowEdits = True
Else
Me.AllowEdits = True
End If
End Sub

And this works without issue.However, I want to create a second button to lock the form again.

Private Sub cmdLockRecord_Click()
If Me.AllowEdits = True Then
Me.AllowEdits = False
Else
Me.AllowEdits = False
End If
End Sub

Seems logical that I should just be able to reverse the true/false but this does nothing!I've also tried the below code:

Private Sub cmdEditRecord_Click()
Me.AllowEdits = Not (Me.AllowEdits)
End Sub

To toggle between editing/locked, with the same results - ie, can switch to editing, but can't then turn it off.

Forms :: Controls With Data Not Locking Or Disabled

Jun 20, 2014

I've got some forms that I've set to lock controls based on an added tag. I have a loop that goes through the entire form and disables (controlname.enabled = false) or locks (controlname.locked =true) all the controls with that tag.

This appears to work fine when the form is on a blank record but when an existing record is opened, the controls that have data in them are no longer locked or disabled (empty controls are still locked). Is there an explanation for this behavior? I don't want to disable the entire form because there are controls that I want the user to be able to always access. I started by just disabling them, then when I noticed the problem I tried locking them instead but it happens with both. Is there another property I can try that will really lock them if they have data in them or not?

Forms :: True / False - Form Properties Based On Field Value

Sep 10, 2014

On my form ECOs

When my text box RELNUM is > 0 I want form properties AllowEdits set to FALSE.

When RELNUM is null I want form properties AllowEdits set to TRUE.

This must be possible, but not entirely sure where to start.

Since I can scroll through records in this form I'm thinking I have to put an event in ON LOAD, bbut beyond that I'm at a lost.
