Forms :: Popup Error Upon Entering Field For Search Purpose

Nov 19, 2013

I get this strange behavior in multiple forms I have. When I click on a field for the first time, I get a quick popup that immediatly disappear. It only get the popup when I enter fields I added for search purpose (a listbox which has a query as source, which I build with the value from another input field that the user type in).

I get the error when :
-I enter the input field for the first time
-I type in a value for the first time
-I select an element in the listbox
-Also when I open a form for the first time (happens only for the first opened form)

I don't even have time to see what it is in fact. I had to time a screenshot to see what it was.

So, I get an error like this : "Search referenced file : MSOUTL.OLB". No text in the msgbox, only that title.

[URL] .....

I checked google, found various reference to Outlook stuff. Problem is, I don't use any outlook stuff. I don't get any of those popup when I open the projet under Access 2013, but under Access 2010 I get them. I created the project under Access 2013, but users will use Access 2010.

General :: Parameter Box Pops Up On Application Quit

Jul 17, 2013

When my database application is closed a parameter box pops up asking for parameter from text16 but only if the Navigation Pane is hidden.

Some information:

The application starts with a login screen that has a hidden text box (text16) that allows me to limit what users can access throughout the database by setting it as the query criteria.

If a form is open that is gathering its data from one of these querys and you try to close the application the parameter box opens which is simply annoying for my users who do not know about access.

The interesting thing about this is that if I unhide the Navigation Pane and close the application with one of these forms open it closes fine with no parameter box pop up.

The goal is to have the Navigation Pane hidden and the parameter box not pop up.

Added information if the navigation pane is hidden I can use a command button with a macro that closes all open forms then quits application and this does not cause the parameter box to pop up.

So another fix for my problem would be to disable the "X" close button at the top right of the application.

Jul 14, 2014

I have a form for entering Retirement Plan information (frmRRSP) that has tblRRSP as its recordsource. The RRSP Rate is a field with a Number datatype (in the table) and a Percent format on the form. When I enter a value on the form it originally displays the value I enter, until I press the Enter key, then it changes to "####" an enters a value of 0 in the table field.I tried entering a value directly in the table and it changes to 0 when I press Enter.I have an almost identical form and table for Vacation and it does the same thing.

Entering Data In A Field Through Filtered Records Only

May 4, 2006

uh.. I guess the title pretty much sums it up... Is there a way to enter data in a text box or something once, and have it applied to all the filtered records?

I have it set up so that we can sort by project number, and it displays only the invoices that havent been assigned to a bill (we recover the expenses form our parent company). I dont want to have to enter the same bill number to each of the filtered records individually.

Thanks

Modules & VBA :: Entering Data Into A Table Using Record Field

Jan 19, 2015

I am creating a log in form, it checks the user name which is unique. if the user has entered a password, it shows only one password text box, they enter the password, if it is correct they enter the database, otherwise they return to the text box.

But if they have not entered a password before the form opens with two text boxes, one for the password and one to confirm the password is typed correct, if the are different a message box shows telling them that they are different, now is where i having problems, when they have typed the two passwords and they are correct i want them to save this password in the same record "Password" as the selected "username" record, I can find the "username" record by doing a Dlookup, easy, but i am stuck how to then save the password from the text box where the selected username record is.

My table "staff" has fields of "IDStaff", "FirstName", "Surname", "Password", "Username".

Entering Current Date In A Field Via Form Button?

Aug 16, 2012

I am trying to figure out to have the current date populate in table field by using a button on a form and not having much luck.

I have a table with 2 date fields, a 'created' field and a 'received' field. I already have the date set to auto populate for the 'created' field but I don't want the 'received' field to populate until the employee has gone into the database to receive the work.

I know I could have the employee just enter the date, but i want to avoid any typos or people simply forgetting to do it.

Ideally I would love the button to enter the current date into the 'received' field and save the entry, but I fine it needs to be 2 seperate buttons.

Forms :: Entering ID But Displaying Name

Oct 1, 2014

I have a table that holds the ID to another table where I pick up the name to display instead of the ID. If a name is added or changed then the ID needs to be added/updated.

The name (and other details) are displayed on a form from 1 to ,many rows.The field that holds the name is a combo box and I can change that field by selecting the bane from the combo box or typing the name in. What I want to be able to do is type in the ID (I'm actually scanning it in from a bar code) but display the name. How do I do this.

As I say this currently works if name is typed (Or scanned in)and the ID is written to the table.On the data tab for the field I have as the control source the ID itself. In the Row Source I have select 5 fields from the second table which includes the ID and name (both from 2nd table). The Bound Column is set to 1. In the Format tab Column count is 5 and column widths is set to 0cm;3cm;0cm;0cm;0cm. This allows the name (2nd column) to be displayed. But the 1st column to be stored on table 1. However I can't scan in the ID which I want.

Populating A Field Automatically OR Allowing Manual Entering Of Data

Sep 26, 2005

I have a simple table with two fields in that table called:

1. BankName
2. BankNumber

Each bank has a bank number. For example Bank XYZ and all of its branches have the same Bank Number 123. There are 5 banks I have listed in a combo list under the BankName field. I can also type in a different bank in that same field if it is not listed in the combobox list.

Now, I want the BankNumber to automatically populate based on what I choose under BankName. If the BankName is manually entered (for banks that are not in the combobox), or if the BankName field is blank, I want the BankNumber field to be able to enter a number manually.

For example, if I go to the BankName field and under the combobox I select Bank XYZ, i want the BankNumber field to automatically populate as 123. If the BankName has a bank name that was manually entered, i want BankNumber field to allow me to manually enter a number.

Thanks for ur help. I couldn't figure this simple request out.

Entering Field Value With Code Doesn't Trigger New Record With AutoNumber

Jan 4, 2006

In trying to respond to another thread, I have run into something that is confounding me (or maybe I'm just getting dense).

We have a subform. One field has an event on DblClick to launch a search form. When the user identifies the target, he/she clicks a button on the subform. This pushes the appropriate value into a field on the original subform using VBA code and closes the search form. This all works fine.

The behaviour that is driving me bugging is when the user clicks on a new record (i.e. new line) on the subform, we would like to automatically generate the next record (E.g. when you type in a field of a record with autonumber in datasheet mode, Access automatically generates the next record). Currently this doesn't happen - Access generates the PK for the record being modified, but doesn't generate the view of the next record.

What really confuses me is that I have created similar looking example in which this works just fine. I can't figure out which of the differences between the two samples is causing this behaving.

Also, typing information into the field on the subform does cause the next record to be generated. It is just doing this via code that works in one case but not another.

I have narrowed it down to the actual subform. Even as a standalone form the form exhibits the same behaviour.

For reference, the original thread is
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=99457

Any suggestions?

Is there a quicker way to go through 25 dropboxs?

General :: Scientific Notation Displayed When Entering Data In Number Field

Mar 4, 2013

I have a "Currency" field in a table and it holds large numbers (on which I will need to do basic arithmetic operations at some point, so I must store them as a numbers). I have set the "Standard" format on the TextBox used to display it on a form because I want to have thousand separators; I've also set "0" for decimals as I don't need to display them.

So everything displays as I want it even with the largest number that can be stored all the decimals are showing in the text field, but when I click on the field to edit the value instead of having the complete value it is displayed as scientific notation. I would like to display the complete value when editing it instead of the scientific notation, how can I achieve this, if it is possible?

A numeric example: If a user enters 1234567891012, the value displayed is indeed 1234567891012 but if they click on the field again the displayed value while editing is 1.23456789012E+11 (and it switches back to normal notation when the focus changes to another field). I would like to show 123456789012 all the time. I know that Access is capable of it most likely because if I set the Format to "Fixed" the values are always displayed completely (no scientific notation), but unfortunately I would like the thousands separators to show and it is not possible with the "Fixed" format.

Two last details, the scientific notation while editing does not kick in unless there is more than 11 digits in the number and the field width (and/or TextBox width) are sufficient to display up to 20 digits.
