I have 2 Listboxes the first list is based on a query I need to select items from this box or part of each item and move to another listbox. the items in the second listbox will be used in a report. I have previously posted on another forum with no real luck fyi. the query is put straight in the RowSource.
View RepliesMove Selected Items Between Listbox1 (listEmp) and listbox2 (listAllocated). the items moved from listEmp must be removed from listEmp when moved to list allocated and vice versa.
Overview:
listEmp is my first listbox and currently has the query in it's rowsource
SELECT e.* FROM qryEmp AS e;
it has 7 columns but only 6 are showing (Column 1 is hidden)
and it is currently bound to 1
listAllocated has only 4 columns (can be changed) i only need the first 4 columns from the first list.
currently it has no row source and the row source type is set to Value
it is also bound to 1
I did find some code that does not do what I need but is closer than anything that I have found so far. It seems like it is copying the Selected Items from Column 1 and pasting it in the second listbox. but it is pasting them all in a row and not in individual columns below is the code. I will post a screen shot in 2 posts time.
Code:
Private Sub cmdCopyItem_Click()
CopySelected Me
End Sub
[Code].....
I have a form with a listbox in which users should be able to move the items up and down. The listbox has 4 columns and multiple selection is enabled.
For a NON multiselect box I have it working, and also for a multiple selection box but in that case it works only for one row at a time.
For a NON multiselect listbox:
Code:
cmdDown_Click()
Dim i As Integer
Dim t1 As String, t2 As String, t3 As String, t4 As String
i = selectie.ListIndex
t1 = Nz(selectie.Column(0, i))
t2 = Nz(selectie.Column(1, i))
[Code] ....
You can select an item and then press "Down" as many times as you want to put the items as "down" in the list as you want it to be.
Multiselect listbox
This code also works for a multipleselection listbox when one item is selected, however, after you press "down" the item is still selected (highlighted) as the code reselects is (last line) BUT the value of selectie.listindex apparently is set to "-1".
Pressing "Down" again generates an error (i = -1). I can evade the error by adding "if selectie.listindex <=0 then exit sub", but that doens't fix the problem that the only way I can manage to reset the listindex to the new "position" of the item is to click on it again and THEN press "Down".
To fix this and be able to press "down" multiple times listindex should be set to the new value.
Adding a "me.selectie.listindex = i -1" doens't work (error), it seems like this value is readonly.
I can't find a way to "simulate" a mousepressed selection and really set the listindex.
The other problem is of course that this code doens't support moving multiple items at once: listindex points to the last selected item, but only one.
So, I tried another piece of code to move multiple items, not using listindex (since that resets to -1), but I run into another problem
Code:
Private Sub cmdDown_Click()
Dim var As Variant
Dim i As Integer
Dim n As Integer
Dim t1 As String, t2 As String, t3 As String, t4 As String
n = Me.selectie.ItemsSelected.Count
[Code] ....
The problem with this is: I can select multiple items and press "Down", but the problem now is that the selection is lost as soon as the code removes the first item, and the 2nd loop skips the if selected(i) = true (nothing is selected anymore).
The me.selectie.selected(i+1) = true doens't work since that would only reselect the first item after moving it.
The code "forgets" which items were selected and moves only one item...So I guess I need to put the indexnumbers in memory while moving the items.
I have been searching a lot, but can only find VB-solutions. In VB it's a lot simpeler using f.e. the .list property of a listbox, which is not available in MSAccess
The solution I'm thinking about is:
- set an array with the numbers of selected items
- put indexnumbers of the selected items in the array (f.e. 3 and 4)
- move items based on the indexnumers in the array
- when moving an item update the indexnumber in the array (3>4, 4>5)
- after moving all items reset the selection based on the array
It occurred to me then if I'm going to use an array anyway, I might as well load all items in an array, do the "resorting" and the reload the items in the list from the array. Might be more straightforward?
Btw...It seems VB has a simple solution to moving items: listbox.list(i) = listbox.list(i+1) or something like that moves an item. Even Excel seems to have this property but not MS Access!
I've designed access form with one listbox and added 'up' and 'down' buttons to move up and down the selected item in the listbox. i.e from its selected position to one item up when 'up' button clicked and same as one item down when down button is clicked. Any VBA code will do this functionality?

I'm creating an employee audit database, and, in the audit form, the user (ie. supervisor) can select a number of items from a listbox. Each item selected corresponds to an error that the employee has made, and, as such, the employee's Audit Score has two points deducted for each item that is selected.
Incidentally, there are other, solitary elements to the form, but this particular listbox houses a collection of items that are related under a single category.
The score is displayed at the bottom of the form, and it needs to update in real-time.
The problems that I am encountering are that I am unable to count the number of items selected and then I am unable to multiply that count by 2 (the point-value of each item on the list.)
Given a subform that lists items:
a
b
c
d
e
f
g
Given a table that contains a coverage field
customer coverage
smith a, b, d, g
How would I create a relationship between a subform and a coverage field such that when i multi select items in the subform, it will show what items are selected in the coverage field as in the example.
I'm trying to create a right-click event on a listbox that will copy selected listbox item(s) to a temp table. So far, I've got this code to acknowledge the right click:
Code:
Private Sub List0_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single,
Y As Single)
If Button = acRightButton Then
MsgBox "You pressed the right button."
End If
End Sub
Problem is the selected item on the list box doesn't move until after the mouse down event so whatever code I would run would involve the wrong record(s).
I'm using Access 2000 and 2003. How to get the the correct record selected on mouse down, or point me to a working example of right-click functionality on a listbox.
hi
i apologize if this question has been answered before. i have looked at numerous others in the 'listbox' search box, but not had any success in adapting the answers to what i need.
i have a form A with a listbox of 1,400 rows
i then select maybe the 10th row down on the listbox, and
a new form B opens with information pertaining to the listbox row selected
form A changes its visible value from true to false
i do my editing on form B
now what i would like to do is, on form B click a next button and for
form B to close
form A to be visible again, and the next row (11th) on the list box be highlighted
form B to open again but with pertaining to the next listbox row (11th) selected
form A to not be visible
any help would be very much appreciated

Hi all, greate site and i have been able to solve most problems by using the search box although this problem is doing my head in...!!
I have a db that records project numbers and their details. I am using a listbox to allow a user to multiselect Project Involvements Tasks(ie Documentation, Build etc) against a project number.
I am able to read the selections into a separtate table with two columns which is structured as:
ProjectNo - InvolvementType
123 - Testing
123 - Build
123 - Documentation
456 - Build
789 - Testing
789 - Documentation
as you can see I dont have a problem getting the Itemsselected into a table... the problem that i am having is getting them out again when the record is displayed - ie marking them as itemsselected.
I believe that the event would be onCurrent which would loop through this table pick up the project number and recorded invovements and mark them as selected in the listbox. if there is no invovement then the listbox would show no selections.
I am using this code to read the selections in
===========================
'Records project involvements against project
Public Function AddInvolvements(ctlRef As ListBox) As String
On Error GoTo Err_AddInvolvements_Click
Dim i As Variant
Dim dbs As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim qd As DAO.QueryDef
Dim strDelete As String
Set dbs = CurrentDb
Set qd = dbs.QueryDefs!qInvolvement
Set rs = qd.OpenRecordset
'Delete records where project number exists against an invovelment incase of involvement changes
strDelete = "Delete Project_Involvement.ProjectNo " & _
"FROM Project_Involvement " & _
"WHERE (((Project_Involvement.ProjectNo)=[Forms]![Add_Project_Details]![ProjectNo]));"
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunSQL strDelete
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
For Each i In ctlRef.ItemsSelected
rs.AddNew
rs!InvolvementType = ctlRef.ItemData(i)
rs!ProjectNo = Me.ProjectNo.Value
rs.Update
Next i
Set rs = Nothing
Set qd = Nothing
Exit_AddInvolvements_Click:
Exit Function
Err_AddInvolvements_Click:
Select Case Err.Number
Case 3022 'ignore duplicate keys
Resume Next
Case Else

Resume Exit_AddInvolvements_Click

have a drop down menu on a form. When it has been updated to a certain value I want some of the field on my form to be disabled.
I am thinking it is a afterUpdate event, What would be the code to disable another field on the form
would it be something like this
If Forms![frmPlacements]![CostType] = "consultant" Then Forms![frmPlacements]![Wages].Disabled
CostType is a drop down menu with entry as follow: consultant, permananent, none and when consultant is selected the Wages text box should be disabled

Can some one tell me why, on the attached database example, I can select multiple items from list boxes
"TipoCliente" and "FaixaEt" through "frmClientes" form but they are not passed forward to table "tblClientes" ?
Try to onpen attached database example and use form "fmrClientes" and select multiple items at
"TipoCliente" and "FaixaEt" list boxes by entering them with mouse click and Ctrl key pressed .
Select also single item from
"NivEns" Combobox and write anything on "Nome" and "Apelido" fields .
Go to the table "tblClientes" and you can see text fields "Nome" and "Apelido" and also the item "NivEns" from Combobox "NivEns" are all there but not the items you selected from "TipoCliente" and "FaixaEt" list boxes .
What is happenig ?
Lots of thanlks

I want to use an array to store data from a list box into a variable. I want it to be able to store one value, or multiple values, depending on what is selected.
Main problem: this list box feeds off a table which has employee names and their e-mails. The list box itself only shows the names, and when I select what I want the array to store is their e-mails, not their names.
Code:
Dim strNames As String
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim intCount As Integer
For Each varItem In Me.lstNames.ItemsSelected
intCount = intCount + 1
Select Case Len(strNames)
[Code] ....
That code successfully displays the item I selected, but only displays the name. I need to make it look in the table and get me column #2. I also want it to be able to select more than one item at a time.
I want to limit the results in a query to the selected items on a list box - how do I do this?

Hello everybody,
Hopefully somebody can help me on this one. I searched the whole internet and access forums, but I didn't find the exact solution for my problem.
I've got a table with students, a table attendance, where I now only save the students who are absent, but I would like to save also the students who are PRESENT (at the same time).
I've got a combobox where I filter the Class, which then updates a listbox with the students from that class. What I do now is select the students from the listbox and then press a save button and it saves the records to the table absence with STATUS: ABSENT.
I would like to save the NON selected students also in that table, but with PRESENT in the column STATUS.
I thought of making another listbox next to it, where after selecting the absent students, they wil apear and disappear in the PRESENT table so I can store all the information.
But the only problem is that I can find this solution when the listbox is populated by a list of values instead by a table or query. And the other solution is to store the temporary data into 2 different tables, but that's not working for me because it's a multi user database and everything will be messed up.
Hope that someone can help me, I will be very happy.
I would like passing values from first form until third form.
In the first form I have a list box after selecting items (For each selected item in first form I have 4 values) and pressing button (or right click of mouse) the second form will be open, then in the second form I have 2 option (inserting, deleting), when I select inserting or deleting in the second form, third form will be open, in the third form there is a "OK" button, when I press that, passed values from first form will be used for inserting or deleting records to the table.
I have an Equipment Form with a Supplier subform. The Supplier subform also has a subform, Equipment Pricing Records.
I have the ability to change the Supplier via a combo box, but Equipment Pricing Records become orphaned.
What I would like to do is when a Supplier is about to be changed, for the user to have the option to either a) delete the sub records, or b) the sub records to move across to the new Supplier.
I know I will need to use the after update event once the delete or move decision is made, but I can�t think how to identify the records and then either delete or move them to the new Supplier ID.
The EquipmentID will never change.
Fields are;
EQUIPMENT form;
EquipmentID
SUPPLIER form;
SupplierID
EquipmentIDFK
PRICING RECORD form;
PricingRecordID
SupplierIDFK
EquipmentIDFK
