Mini Pop Up Calendar
Nov 6, 2005I am trying to find a mini pop up calendar that keeps the original date when a file is checked out. My check out file is in a continuous form. The date should stay that way until checked out again by another individual, etc. I do not want to use the DTPicker calendar since it changes the date to the current date.

Jun 10, 2014I have an unbound listbox in my details section of my form and it will display items from the database that I have selected. There are 19 in all. If I double click the row, the edit form pops up. If I right click I can sort the columns. I want to have a single click that allows the user to open the attachment in that list. I am not sure how to code this.

Forms :: Display Attachment Image Based On Combo Box Selection
Jul 13, 2013I'm working on a wine database (for ages now...). I'm currently struggling getting the following to work. I have a form in which one can select the name and vintage of a wine using a combo box, after which also a picture will be shown of that wine. I have the pictures as attachments in a table. One can then press a button to close this form and go to another form in which one can edit all the details of the selected wine. Problem: I can't get the picture to show.
I have a reasonably simple form with a combo box, a text box, a button and an attachment field in which a picture should show.
I made a query to select the id, name and vintage from the wine table. I couldn't select the attachment field for the pic in the wizard, so I added that myself in the Design View. The Query for the combo box now reads:
Code:
SELECT Wijn.Id, Wijn.Naam, Wijn.Vintage, Wijn.Plaatje FROM Wijn ORDER BY Wijn.[Naam], Wijn.[Vintage];
(translation: Naam = name | Plaatje = picture)
It neatly shows name and vintage in the drop down list. Once selected it only shows the name of the wine in the combo box and I use VBA to fill the Text Box with the vintage of the selected wine. The VBA I use is:
Code:
Private Sub cmbNaamWijn_Change()
Me.txtVintage.Value = Me.cmbNaamWijn.Column(2)
End Sub
All works fine. Also when I pres the button, the wine I selected opens up and can be editted and the select form nicely closes. The only problem is the fact that I cannot get the picture to show!
I inserted an attachment field with the name: attImage. In the VBA code I added the line:
Code:
Me.attImage.Picture = Me.cmbNaamWijn.Column(3)
Doesn't work. With debugging I do see it gets the correct value form the table. I get an error message stating "Method or data member not found", so Picture is not available for the attachment object I guess. If I look at what is available, I can't select anything useful. So my next try was adding an image control with the name: ImageWine and the VBA code in the On Change property
Code:
Me.ImageWine.Picture = Me.cmbNaamWijn.Column(3)
results in the following: Run-time error '2220'. Microsoft Access can't open the file '[FilenamePicture]'. Logical in a way I guess, since there's no path in there. I also tried the Bound Object Frame, but that resulted in the same problem as the attachment try described above.
Forms :: Link To Allow User To Navigate From Each Record To Its Respective Attachment

View 1 Replies View RelatedForms :: Web Browser Control Inside A Tab Control Display
Jun 18, 2014I have a form with a tab control, inside the tab control I placed an ActiveX control (Microsoft Web Browser). These are at the bottom of the form.
Everything displays fine if the entire form fit on the screen but if the form is too long and I scroll down the browser control is getting obscured by the tab control and getting chopped off (the contents are covered). It is as if the browser control is staying in space where it was and moving behind the tab control as I scroll.
This problem does not occur if I place the browser control directly on the form. Also I note that the browser control is sitting correctly within the tab control.
I have been through all the settings and properties of both controls and haven't been able to fix it. I searched all over the web but no one has previously stumbled across this one by the look of it.

Custom Toolbar
Mar 29, 2006HI all, I have recently created my own custom toolbar for my database which works fine on my computer, but when the database is transfered to another computer via a memory stick (needs to be done as it is going to be used on remote laptops away from the main network), the custom toolbar does not carry over. Instead of the custom toolbar being shown, the normal, main toolbars are reset to the default ones shown.
Is there a way of stopping the toolbars reseting when transfering the database so that my custom toolbar is the default toolbar?
Thanks for the help!
Custom Toolbar
Jul 13, 2006I have a custom toolbar in my application. However, it isn't visible at the top of the application window and when I try to make it so - via View - Toolbars - it doesn't appear on the list of available bars.
I had assumed that I had somehow deleted it, but I know it's still present somewhere, as when I try to recreate it, I get a message saying so.
How can I get the toolbar to be displayed? :confused:

Combo Box On Toolbar
Oct 2, 2007After several nights of reading through the documentation on the ability to add a combo box to a toolbar, I have not been able to create a combo box with more than one column and hide the key column.
Here's my goal (I think that many people would want to do the same):
In any database that deals with a client table, a good way to access a client's record is by putting a combo box on the client screen with (at least) 2 columns, one is the client's ID and the other is a Last, First field. (I usually put another column with phone number as well). The user selects the client and the value of the combo box is set to the (hidden) ID field and the AfterUpdate event pulls up the appropriate recordf.
My idea is to put this combo box right on the toolbar for easier access. You may want to call up a client even if the client screen happens not to be open.
The combo box on toolbars seem to work with indexes rather than allowing you to hide (or size) a column, making this seemingly impossible.
Another issue I found is updating the contents of the combo box.
Since Access doesn't refresh the contents of a combo box, I always set mine to have no rowsource. In the OnGotFocus event of the combo box, I assign the rowsource programatically to the client list (or whatever list the combo box is meant for) so you always get up to the minute results. The amount of time that it takes to load 10,000 names into there even over a LAN is so fast that the user doesn't notice that it's loading.
I'm not sure what would happen if I had to do the same with the toolbar combo box. First of all, I'm not aware of any OnGotFocus event so you'd literally have to keep refreshing the contents every time someone changed, added or deleted a client from the client table. To refresh the contents, it seems that you can't just set the rowsource to a SQL recordsource. (The way I did it was to have a loop go through my database using DAO and using the AddNew command for each client). You would actually have to loop through, clearing out every item and then adding them back in each time someone updated the client database.
All the above is based on what I was able to derive from the documentation that Microsoft has provided for this feature. I do see that there are many events, styles and properties of the combobox that have scant explanation and I'm hoping that someone with more knowledge can help me out here with the problems I'm having. I think this can be a wonderful and much-overlooked tool for many Access developers if it can be used as I want to.
Thanks

Customizing A Toolbar
Jun 28, 2006Hi,
I was trying to customize a toolbar by adding the "size to shortest", "size to narrowest", etc., stuff from the format menu. The first item, "size to tallest", I just clicked and dragged from the format menu onto my toolbar, and that worked fine....except that it disappeared from the format menu. Then, I tried to drag "size to tallest" back to the format menu; Now it has disappeared totally from both my toolbar AND my format menu. How do I get it back???:confused:
BTW, I found out if I ctl-drag items from the format menu to my toolbar, they stay on the format menu but also appear on my toolbar. Wish I had known that before ....

Custom Toolbar & Parameters
Jul 18, 2006Hi all,
I'd like to create a custom toolbar where each button would call the same generic module function, passing it a parameter.
I see how to create the toolbar, but I can't figure out how to call my function and how to pass it parameters.
Also, I can't find any explaination on what this "Parameter" box of the Custom Toolbar is. I thought that would pass parameter to the command in the "on action" but I can't seem to be able to retreive it...
Any help appreciated,

Disable Button On Toolbar
Mar 5, 2007Hi all,
This has to be simple, but the solution eludes me.
I have a database that works really weel, but I need to do some tweaking to the toolbars to "grey out" the "sort ascending" and "sort descending" icons so that hte users do not mess with those and change how the recoerds display.
There has to be an easy way to disable those two buttons or an alternate way to ensure that the form basically ignores them.
Thanks
