When a certain button on a form is click it makes a sub form become visible, I am trying then to make this form exclusive aka, must be complete and stop the user clicking on the main form until this sub form has been complete.
View RepliesI have a continuous form that I need to appear as a datasheet (one record per row). The data fields are "locked" to the left edge of the form. How do I free them for realignment inot a row (instead of a stack)?
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs 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
I have a main form that has 2 subforms. I have a field on both forms that I have marked as "Visible="No". Both are text box controls and I have made sure that both the label and the text box itself are marked "Visible="No". In the first subform, it works correctly, while on the second one, it still displays.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a form in datasheet view, and I am wondering if it's possible to specify "pages" with a set amount of records per page.Think like the search results of Google, you get a huge number of results, but only so many are displayed per page.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want controls on the left of my form, but when I do it this way and then print a record, it displays a big blank section.
How do I make the left side a non-print section for my controls?
See my 2 attachments. I put the Pop-Up property on the form. that worked but still not what I want.
On the HATT attachment do you see how it opens in the middle of the screen? And the other opens at the top right, (and has that tab at the top right that says frmMain)?
how do i made the airwatch open in the middle? like the other screenshot?
I have created simple data base containing 2 tables connected each other and I wanted to make a form with fields taken from those tables and unfortunately it did not work and I got errors message.
Before I start to build the form do I need to create the query based on those tables and having the fields I need for the form? If yes, what sort of query, simplest one?
I'm trying to use an unbound form to enter single inventory items to my database. As part of the function of this form, I'd like to check new items against the current inventory, and perform the function you can see in the error handling code(Which works fine). Currently, when I try to run this I get an error on the syntax of the 'FROM' clause.
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub btnCommit_Click()
'On Error GoTo errHandler
Dim SQL As String
SQL = " INSERT INTO [InventoryDetail]" & _
[code]....
how do you make the navigation controls on the main form control the subform i.e. navigating through the records or creating a new record???
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm pretty new to Access. I was wondering if it's possible to make a calculation for a specific row in an Access form.
I placed an example in the attachment (I made it quick in paint, because the actual Access form is in my language "Dutch" ):
Value1 and Value2 come from a database, so the amount of rows can change. When I click on "Calculate" on the first row, it should calculate 12 * 13 and show the solution only on row 1. If I click on "Calculate" on the second row, it should show the solution of 10 * 20 only on row 2.
I tried to solve this by using the following VBA code:
Private Sub Calculate_Click()
Solution.Value = Value1.Value * Value2.Value
End Sub
But if I click on the first "Calculate" button, it will fill all solutions with the first calculation (12 * 13).. The same happens when I click on "Calculate" on the second, third row etc.
I have been trying to figure out how to make a form refresh after deleting a record in a subform. The code in the combo box that populates the subform works fine. If you select the "Action" of "sign" from the unbound combo box above the subform, it places "Sign" in the the subform and then makes a checkbox on the main form [WillTake] = True.
But when I delete the record by right clicking on the entry, the focus is sent back to the main form so I can refresh the form and thus update the [WillTake] checkbox. I have tried just about everything. I can get the focus to a field on the form, but I cannot figure out how to refresh or requery the form.
The code to transfer focus is on the OnDelete of the subform.
I have included a watered down version of the DB.
I am using Access 2010 and I have my tables hidden in the navigation pane (I don't have any concerns about users finding the tables to make edits), however I am looking to "lock" all fields on a form once a user saves the record. The concern is that when they go to enter a new record they may end up on a previous record and overwrite the information. My thought was to create a checkbox on the table that I can edit each week to lock records. At that point, what type of code can I create or use that will lock records on the form?

View 3 Replies View RelatedMy problem is the following: when I receive say 5 computers in a purchase form, I want to register the serial number of each of them in another form, bound to another table.If I receive 2 units in the purchase form, my user should only be able to input 2 records in the serial form (a continuous form), if we receive 3, then only 3 records,I cannot quite figure out how to build this second (serial number registration form), so that it refuses input after the correct number has been reached.

Trying to filter a form based on a field with wildcard. My form has a txtCustFilter control where a customer's name can be entered in part or whole. The Customer's name is in PCCustomerName
This code works but, I'd like to make it case insensitive
Dim strFilter As String
strFilter = "[PCCUSTOMERNAME] LIKE ""*" & Me.txtCustFilter & "*"""
Me.Filter = strFilter
Me.FilterOn = True
How can I make certain my user enters records on a subform before attempting to save the main form? Right now they can completely ignore the subform before saving the record.The Main form has business address, etc. on it. the subform is bound to a join table that lists the multiple categories, subcategories and sector the business is listed in for a directory.
I already have my fields set to required at the table level in the join table, and have some existing VBA in both my subform (to update edited date) and my form (to validate empty records where a certain condition is met) but that's not the issue...
How do I focus the user to enter a record on the subform to the point where they are forced to enter something and complete the subform before the record is updated.
Is there a way to have the db open exclusive normally?
I set the Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Default Open Mode = Exlusive
But when you double click on the Application it open normally, i.e. shared use?
Any ideas?
If I have one access mdb file called "DATA" that contains tables and two access applications as mdb files: "app1" and "app2". Both applications has links to tables in access mdb file "DATA". Is there a way to open access file "DATA" exclusively when I open "app1" and open it shared when I run "app2"?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHey guys,
When I try to open a report or a form in a database I've been working on for the past couple of days, a dialogue box pops up saying that I "do not have exclusive access to the database at this time". Does this mean that I can't access these form because someone else has the database open? I sent a zipped copy of the database to a fellow coworker in zipped format and we work on a common company server, could him having the db open cause this problem?
Thanks in advance for the help
I have a BE DB on a network server at work. I was making changes to the database and closed it, but it still says that I have exclusive rights (when I try to compact and repair, it shows that my network log-in ID has rights to the DB).
How can I resolve this?
I have a problem which is really REALLY annoying me.
I have created a brand new Access database. I have created a number of forms. When I run the database and use it everything is ok. Then when I try to go into design mode it says
"You do not have exclusive access to the database at this time...."
The database is on my laptop and it is only me who is using it. Can ayone please help.

Access 2007 Professional Plus
I have a small dabase shared by 4 users on the network. when someone opens the db, then someone else opens it there is no problem. when user 1 has a report open and user 2 tries to update a record, user 2 gets the following error
You do not have exlcusive access to the database at this time. If you proceed to make changes you may not be able to save them later
I have split the database into 2 seperate Db's one is the tables only the other is the objects.
Please advise this is getting frustrating
Thanks

I have just had a very frustrating morning. Recently upgraded to MS Access 2003. started having a strange problem, MS Access kept notifying me a another user was using the access database I was in. I switched off and rebooted, still the same..... ?
Read a bit on the Internet, checked my settings, made sure I was exclusive user, made sure user was set to owner, Rebooted, still the same.
I noticed that occasionally the *.ldb file would suddenly appear when I've tried to move or copy a database in explorer from one folder to another? Something was shadowing me, something was recording when I was using an MS Access database.
I checked to see if I had inadvertently added any strange Add-in's, none Listed. I checked visual source safe, I haven't set that up yet it's not doing anything.
Then I remembered! I had installed MS Access crawler which works with Google desktop to record where your MS Access files are. I uninstalled access crawler and I have not had any problems since.
I have inheritted a database that works very well. I need to change addresses on some of the Reports and make some changes to the forms but I am having extreme difficulty in obtaining exclusive access because I do not have the correct permissions. I have spoken to the originator who says he didn't set any secirity on it. Can anyone help me either get permission to edit it or get the database working by some other means.
View 1 Replies View RelatedFolks,I've got one file that I would like to make a copy of in a different format (.mdb to .accdb).Everytime I try the "Save As" within a different file type, I think Access treats the new file like it's being opened. Because of this, I am getting this error:Cannot save the database because it has been opened exclusively by 'Admin' on "my machine"I've checked both previous versions of the file (2000 & 2003), and both of them have a default open mode of "shared". I am trying to save it as a .accdb file from either the 2000 or 2003 version. Both files throw the error.What could be going on here?
