Forms :: Combo Box Not Getting Focus When Opening Via Navigation Bar
Aug 13, 2014I have a combo box combo51.
If I open the form directly from the left pane (all access objects)
forms engineering entry
the form opens and combo51 has focus (the cursor is in it)
If I open it from the Engineering tab on the navigation bar the Engineering Entry is the default left hand form and opens, but no focus as in the screen dump.
If I go to the code on Engineering Entry, On Load, Combo51.SetFocus This doesn't seem to work as I would expect.
How can I get this combo box to get focus when opening this form via the navigation bar.

Sep 21, 2012I am trying to get the value of a combobox after selecting an "OK" button but get "You can't reference a property or method for a control unless the control has the focus." Most would probably say use .Value but when I press "OK" I am prompted for a value, or as in another case get Null.I tried setting the focus prior to the violating line of code, but no go.
Example:
Code:
Private Sub viewByRegionOKButton_Click()
DoCmd.OpenReport "byRegionReport", acViewPreview, , "RegionName = '" & regionComboBox.Text & "'"

Forms :: Set Focus To Sub Form?
Sep 14, 2014On a main form I have 2 sub forms. On the main form I have a command button that asks how many guests in a booking and depending on the response populates the subform with Guest Names. However it will only do this if I click on the subform and then click the command button.
I want to include some code that sits behind the command button on the main form that will duplicate the otherwise manual selecting of the sub form. And I am thinking this is a SetFocus procedure.
I have tried this code;
[Forms]![Booking].[SubForm1].SetFocus
where Booking is the name of the form. I do not know whether the Subform is #1

Forms :: Bringing Entered Data From One Textbox On Form To Textbox On Another Form
May 17, 2013I currently have two froms, "add record" and "add record cont." The reason I have two seperate forms is because when clients create a new record information needs to be saved to two different tables and when creating one from with fields from both tables I ran into many problems. The two tables are named : tblMain, tblFileLoc Currently there is a textbox on both forms named "fileID" the FileID in the first form is from tblMain and is the primary key for that table, the FileID on the second form "Add Record Cont." is just a normal field. When clients enter in the new FileID in the first form "Add Record" and then move onto the next form "Add Record Cont." i need access to bring the entered FileID from the first form and Fill it in the FileID field in the second form. Currently I have tried making the control source for the textbox on the second form = the textbox on the first form but it brought up an error.

Forms :: Fields Jumping When Have Focus
Sep 1, 2013When the client clicks in a text-Box or Combo-box in a sub-form, the field seems to jump to the side. in this image it jumps to the left, but jumps to the right to..., it is quite irritating, especially attempting to open a combo-box list, and see the button jumping aside.We renewed the file many times, so I don't think it is corrupted, but go know..the file can be accessed via network or terminal server, the pic is from terminal, but happens via network too.
View 1 Replies View RelatedForms :: Set Focus To Last Line Of Subform
Jan 21, 2015I have a single main form with a datasheet subform. When I scroll through the records shon in the main form, each has a different set of child records shown in the subform.
I want the focus to be on the last record of the subform each time.
On the main form, I have a button and this code
Code:
Private Sub cmdLast_Click()
Me.frmRevisionsSub.Requery
Me.frmRevisionsSub.SetFocus
Me.frmRevisionsSub.Form.txtRevTag.SetFocus
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acLast
End Sub
which works perfectly, when I click the button.
If I call this code from main form's OnCurrent, focus remains on the first line of the subform instead of going to the the last. I have an inkling that it has to do with when the requery of the subform takes place, when I scroll through the records on the main form.
General :: Setting Focus On Forms
Jun 26, 2015I am having trouble setting the focus on my forms... I have a parent form with two labels that are coded like this.
Private Sub Advisory Messages_Click()
Me![ Advisory Messages].Visible = _
Not Me![Advisory Messages].Visible
End Sub
[code]...
I have the visible property set to no on the subform allowing the user to toggle the visibility when the label is clicked. The problem though is when I click inside the subform to use the scroll bar to view records, it transfers the focus to the subform making it almost impossible to close by clicking the label again because the label is on the parent form. I found the "me.parent.setfocus" command and a few other set focus commands but I don't know what I should be applying the command to in order to make it work.
Forms :: Subform - Set Focus To Other Record
Jan 2, 2014I have a form with a subform which is sized to show several records at the same time. If Record A has the focus, and I click anywhere in Record B, then Record B gets the focus, as expected. ... Except if I click on an Image field in Record B, when the focus stays on Record A.
How I can force it to set the focus to the other record ? I don't think this can be done with Events handlers, as they need to have the focus set first.
