Forms :: Add Future Dates On Button Click
Jan 14, 2014I am very new to Access and have virtually no experience with vb, I'm trying to build a customer database with some forms that enable myself and a couple of others to keep track of customer contact.I have designed my form with 5 buttons at the bottom of the page with different future date values, I have made a field in my database called FollowUpBy and i would like to be able to click the buttons and have access take today's date plus the relevant follow up time-scale and insert that into this field. Also but on a separate note, I have the yes/no box for follow up required is there a way to make the buttons at the bottom and the date picker unavailable (perhaps shaded or crossed out) unless this box is checked?
View 1 Replies View RelatedForms :: Update Records On Button Click?
Jul 3, 2014I have a form listing out a bunch of clients. There is a button associated with each client that pulls open a new form with additional client information. There is information that is calculated on the backend and stored in the database when a user is inserted or different fields updated (i.e. there are reports that are due different time frames after the clients admission date. I automatically populate the database with those dates once the clients admission date is updated).
The problem I am having is that when I enter a new client or update a current client with new information and then click the button to go to their details page, those auto-populated dates are not populated. I am calling a subroutine that is within a module when the button is clicked. The subroutine works fine at other instances throughout the application so I know there is no issue with the code. I even call it if they click the close button, but before the information is auto-populated, I had to run a Me.Requery on the close button. I think this is because the records are not actually being updated in the database. I even have a DoCmd.Save acForms, "Clients" command before running the Call updateDatabase subroutine, but that doesn't do the trick. I can't run the Me.Requery after the click of the details button because when I do that it always opens the details form to the first ORDER BY record. I think that I need to update the selected record and re-call it in order for this to work.
Forms :: Multiple IF Functions With Button Click
Mar 19, 2013Multiple IF functions in a form. I have a button that on click will print a report if certain fields in the form have data in them. If not, a msgbox pops up to let the user know that data must be filled and then sets focus on whichever field needs data in the form. There are many IF statements, and they all work fine until I get to a certain one then the remaining IF does not continue.
Here is some code:
If IsNull([Alert]) Then
MsgBox "An alert time is required." _
, vbCritical, "Data Required"
Me.Text591.SetFocus
Exit Sub
Else
If IsNull([Enroute]) Then
[Code] .....
The next IF argument will bring up the msgbox when there is no data, thats great. However, when the user fills in the field and continues with the button click to print the report, the button does nothing.
Here is the next IF, the one with the problem:
If IsNull([Combo608]) Then
If IsNull([Combo620]) Then
MsgBox "You must select either a planned event or an emergency event." _
, vbCritical, "Information"
Me.Combo608.SetFocus
Exit Sub
Else
How to get it to work, to continue with the remaining IF arguments after this one (there are several more)?
Or are there a better way to code this and not have the many IF arguments?
Code Triggered From Label On Click Behaves Differently From Command Button On Click
Nov 7, 2006Often I use Labels as buttons due to the fact I can colour them the way I want, and use the on click event to trigger code.
The code below however works for a command button, but not a label button.
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmdatetime"
Do While Forms!frmdatetime!OKFlag.Caption = "False"
DoEvents
Loop
When this code is run by clicking on a command button, it works fine.
If run by clicking on a label, frmdatetime opens, but the mouse will not work on either of the 2 open forms unless you go down to the windows task bar, jump onto another window, and back onto frmdatetime.
If I remove the loop with the DoEvents in it, then the problem does not occur.
Can anyone enlighten me as to why this behaviour occurs.
Thanks

Forms :: Creating New Record In Subform - Button To Add New Object To Main Job
Jul 1, 2013What i'm trying to do is add a new record to a subform. The problem is, I couldn't use a subform based on a table in order to achieve this. I needed extended information for it to be useful, so I made the visible part of the subform based on a query instead.I'd like to add a button that adds a new object to the main job. I'd like the adding of that button to call a new form allows you to fill in the information for that object (this called form actually contains 5 subforms to populate all the data of the object). That form works.
What I need is for the button to call the 2nd detailed form AND create the necessary entries in the project/object junction table.The idea as it is now is a button on the main form, but if it was possible to do so via continuous form in a subform, that's doable.
Forms :: Button Click Event On Continuous Form
Nov 25, 2013I have a continuous form with a button 'Cmd1' & a textbox 'txtMail' which is set to visible no.
When the user clicks Cmd1 - then txtMail becomes visible.
I can do it using vba on the buttons click event but when it executes txtMail for all the records become visible.
How do I use a button's click event on the form's current record - Private Sub Form_Current() so that when the user clicks Cmd1 on the current record only txtMail for that record becomes visible.
I'm using Access 2007.
Forms :: How To Store Data From One Textbox Into Another On Button Click
Jul 2, 2014In my form, when a button (cmdContactedToday) is clicked, a text field to the left (txtDateContacted) is updated with today's date.
However, before this happens, I want the the current date in txtDateContacted to get stored in another (hidden) text field (txtPreviousDate)
Then when another (undo) button (cmdUndoDate) is clicked, the date in txtDateContacted should get replaced with the date in txtPreviousDate.
I've made it as simple to understand as I could.
Forms :: Refresh Form Data On Button Click
Feb 24, 2015Here is the scenario:
Form 1 - Data entry for a new project
Form 2 - Data entry for a task associated with the project in the Form 1
Button on form 1 that opens Form 2.
What I am trying to do:
Use a combobox on Form Two to choose the Project entered into Form 1, so I can capture the Form1 PK as a FK on Form 2.
Here is the problem:
Refreshing the record on the button click so that the new option entered into Form 1 shows up in the combo box on Form 2.
Full disclosure:
I'm not much good at VBA so I have been trying to do this by customizing the button macro. I have tried Refresh, and Requery, but I can't seem to get it to update the list in the combo box.
2 questions:
1. How can I get this accomplished?
2. Is there a better way to get this data into the table than what I am trying to do?

Forms :: Continuous Form - Populating Date With Button Click
Oct 14, 2013So I have a continuous form and I have a button that is pressed when a job is released and it record a date in a field. I wanted to turn that button to disabled after pressed but after lots of reading found that it couldn't be done in a continuous form due to it disabling all buttons . So I decided to just make the code populate the field only if it was a null value so that it wouldn't overwrite a value if someone pressed it more than once. Well the null is my downfall in all this. I cannot make it compare and populate the date when the button is pressed. I have tried all I can find on the net and all I can think of.

Forms :: Mouse Click Can't Work On OK Button For Combo Box Selection
Aug 25, 2014I get a bizarre situation while I am using MS Access 2010 to select values with Combo Boxes on a form, i.e.:
* After I select one or more values from the drop-down list of a Combo Box, there is no response when clicking OK button using the mouse. It is stalled. I need to do the process again and then the mouse-click on OK button could work: click anywhere outside of the combo box, re-select the values, click OK Button, and done.
* However, I can always use Enter key (on the keyboard) upon OK button to complete the selection.
* The values in the drop-down list of the Combo Box were entered manually.
What is wrong with the combo boxes on the form? Why do I need to do twice to complete the selection using mouse-click? Why the keyboard-click ('Enter') can be always OK but not for the mouse-click?

Forms :: Command Button On Click Function - Search By Hedging Program
Jun 26, 2014I have a command button using this code:
If Me.Setfilter.Caption = "Search By Hedging Program" Then
Me.Filter = "Hedging Program"
Me.FilterOn = True
cmd.Setfilter.Caption = "Don't Search By Hedge Program"
Else
Me.FilterOn = False
cmd.Setfilter.Caption = "Search By Hedging Program"
End If
Hedging program is the column from the table I am trying to filter, it is a yes/no column. I want it to return all yes values in my query if it says search by hedging program and if it says Don't search by hedging program I want it to disregard the filter. I also have it set so that when I click the button it changes the caption from one to the other. So I don't know if I really need the cmd.setfilter lines because they may do the same as my command button on click function.

Mar 3, 2006I have a database that I completely redeveloped from scratch. On one form I have 4 OLE Objects so that people can attach links to files. In the old database, you just had to right-click and the insert object box came up...but that isn't working in the new one. I can't remember if it was something that I set or if there is something different about Access 2003 that doesn't allow that. I can't find anything on the subject. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Jan 5, 2015I am currently building a database for the company I work for that is fairly similar to the Northwind Database; however it is made from scratch so hopefully some of the common problems with that database won't find their way into mine.My problem is that when I go to my Orders form, I pick a customer from the main form, which creates a record on the Orders table. When I then go to the subform to choose a product/line item, I get the error in my title ("The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'OrdersT.") as soon as a product is chosen from the drop down list.
View 1 Replies View RelatedForms :: Subform - Object Doesn't Contain Automation Object
Jul 17, 2013The error is:
The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'tblIndividual.' '
Then it also gives me the same one on another table.
I think it has something to do with the link master/child fields. I've tried all kinds of relationships with the three tables and can't figure it out.
I've tried uploading the database here but it won't. It's on my Sky Drive.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMaking The Command Button Visible Sometimes
Aug 14, 2006Hi
I would like to make a command button appear on a form only when certain criteria is put in a control on the form.
For example, one of the controls has a drop down menu. When the user picks "Washed" from this menu I would like a comman button to appear.
The control is called status and the command button is called searchali.
so far I have tried this:in the after update of the control.
If([status] = "Washed", [searchali].visible = True, [searchali].visible = False)
or
If([status] = "Washed" then me.[searchali].visible = true else me.[searchali].visible = false)
an other variations of this and I can't get it to work. I've set the command button to visible = no to start with and the bound column of my control to 0 since I want the first column criteria.
If anyone can see where I might be going wrong, or if there is another way of doing this I would be sooooo grateful!
thanks,
