Forms :: No Filters - Cannot View All Records In Form View
Aug 27, 2013
I have 4 tables and around 440 records but can only view up to 417 in the form I have designed. I have been adding new records via form and it has been added to my main table, but when i try to view it in form view - the record is not available to view. What do I need to do to correct this problem?
I have checked that there are no filters, data entry is set to No, Auto deletions, additions and edits are set to yes.
Also to mention it seems that the problem has arisen since I set up some new queries, there is a one to one relationship between the tables!
I have a Form which I have linked correctly to a subform. The Text boxes are showing in the Design view but are not when one switches to the Form View. Labels for Fields are visible in the Form View. Have even created a new subform and that will also not display the Text Boxes.
Why the ability to view the properties of an object within a form is not available when you double click on it in design view?
I was happily working away double clicking on a command button to edit some code when for some reason the next time I tried to edit it did not open up for me.
I was unable to access it even by right clicking on the object & selecting properties as that also appears to be disabled, not greyed out or anything but just does nothing when selected.
Have I inadvertently changed a setting somewhere that prevents the properties from being displayed?
Hi, I am in the process of creating a new database - I am a bit new to this. I have a main form, which also contains two subforms. The record source of the main part of the form is 11 tables, and then each of the subforms is based on one table each (so there are 13 tables altogether).
Everything seems to be linked up ok, and when I add new information to the form (and the subforms), the information gets saved to the tables as it should be. However, I want to be able to view past records in the form view, so that users can regularly update past records using form view. I can't do this. Each time I open the form view, the thing at the botton left says 'record one of one.' THen if I put the curser in (for eg) the box called 'client name' and click on the search button, I get a message saying:
"you can't find or replace now, the fields are not searchable due to: - the fields are controls; - the fields have no data; - there are no fields to search."
well I don't really know what that means. There is definately data in there somewhere, because I can view it in the table view, but I'd like to be able to view and update old records, and search, in the form view.
I want to "zoom" to the underliyng data from pivot view. When in excel someone doubleclicks a field in a pivot table, it automatically creates a table containing all the lines that field were made up from. I want to achieve the same behaviour in Access.I started to think towards a VBA coda, that could be initiated from the form's double click event. It should go to datasheet view with the prpoer filter criterias.
I have seen that in some sample db's rightclicking the mouse showed the menu with an option to check or uncheck the dataview option, unchecked the formview was applied, but when i 'just' import the subform, i cannot find somewhere the possibility to change from dataview to formview.
Maybe someone can help me with this, probably very simple(?), question?
After reading many of the posts here, I decided that one of the problems with the tables in the db I was working on was in the primary keys. I had used the same field name as the primary key in all of my tables. This was RecipID, which was a user entered textbox with an example in a label beside it showing the format to use.
After reading stuff here, I decided this wasn't a good idea. So I changed RecipId to be an autonumber in the parent table (Household_Info) and a long integer foreign key in the children. Also, I added some fields to the parent table to identify the head of household (lastname, firstname)
I already had a continuous form made with a subform and a pop-up form associated with it based on my previous tables. Reran the query underlying the form, and the new fields showed up in the field list box for the form. The fields are all still present in design view, but I get a totally blank form in form view. I checked the forms recordsource and made sure that it was set to the new query.
Can anyone give me an idea about what I'm overlooking? Do I have to recreate the form?
(Sorry if this is a repeat of a question someone has already addressed, but I couldn't turn up any relevant threads after several hours of searching.)
I have a form which is opened with a filter from another form. For some reason it views the form in form view, although it was set up as datasheet view. I even went to the form properties and the default was datasheet and i made it not to allow other views. This still didnt solve it. I want it to be in datasheet view because i want to show multiple records at the same time.
If u kno how i could resolve this please offer ur help
I have attached a student database that I created using the student database template in Access and have added additional tables, queries, etc. to fit our needs. One of the issues I'm having is users who are not very computer literate don't always remember if they have entered the right dates for attendance.
I had the idea of creating a "sample" student for each corresponding cycle with 100% attendance so they can compare what they have entered to what they "should" have entered. The reports are based on a query, so I know I can have the sample student show up with the correct information there. However, in the STUDENT DETAILS FORM, there is a pre-made code for the student's names to appear in the drop down and when you forward to the next record.
Can I have that altered to only show the ACTIVE students? This way the termed students would also not be a part of this drop down. I should still be able to go into the table itself and put in the sample student information when I create a new cycle, correct?
I added several records in another table but it wont show the records until I press the Refresh button at the ribbon of Home-> Refresh. How can i view the records automatically without pressing the Refresh button?
I have a question on number of records displaying in datasheet view on a form. Is there a way to limit the number of records showing on open.I have a command button on a Navigation form that opens a frmEnterPartsOrder using a Macro.
I have set the Macro to OpenForm, View Datasheet then GoToRecord, Record New..Works perfectly, but it does open the form and fill the screen with records, putting focus on the "new" record at the bottom of the form. Is there a way to set it to open this form, but only display say last 10 records and then focus on "new" record.
I have a database created in Access 2003 about six years ago. I’m the sole user of the Application, which I use to keep track of my personal assignments and to quickly access other resources. A search form was added and tweaked over time until it contained the features I desired. The search form uses a subform to display a list of records, with the ability to click a record‘s "Edit" field to open and update that record.
In about March 2014 we upgraded from Office 2003 using Windows XP to Office 2010 using Windows 7. All users on other Applications that I’d designed and support experienced missing Reference issues, but those were resolved rather quickly. I'd been off work intermittently for about six weeks between April and July and gradually started noticing other issues with my personal assignments tracker that I did not immediately associate with the upgrade. Early on, I noticed that I could no longer delete or rename database objects on several of the databases that I'd designed and support. Eventually, I also noticed that I was unable to create new records and received SaveRecord error messages associated with the subform. I'd encountered SaveRecord issues before and went through previous steps to resolve, but to no avail. Eventually, I came to the conclusion, right or wrong, that all of my recent issues were associated with the upgrade.
I found through online research that my loss of ability to delete or rename Objects was possibly due to the loss of Object Owership and Permissions, which was associated with my Security Workgroup. I confirmed that Ownerships and Permissions had been lost and was unwilling to recreate the database, just yet. No user of other Applications that I support reported any problem creating new records.
I know now that new Access doesn’t have the Security menu item that allows Workgroup creation and joining. After months of online research and trial and error, I was directed to Microsoft Knowledgebase Article 918583, which provided VBA code that allowed me to Run the Workgroup Administrator to rejoin my previously established Workgroup.
After rejoining my Workgroup, everything seemed to return to normal. I could delete and rename records and was able to create new records. After a few days, I noticed that new records were not being displayed in the search form right away. I confirmed that the records were being added to the main table, but still not available in the search form, queries, or reports until after an additional record had been added. In other words, for example, in order to view record 1, a record 2 would have to be added. In order to view record 2, a record 3 would have to be added, and so on. This makes it very tedious to enter new assignments.
I believe the present issue is greater than my search form, because the newest record is not only not available in the search form, but not available in any other form, query, or report. I have no clue where to start.
I have a table called NewTransactions_tbl that I have been using for some time. I am trying to add a new field called CustomerProjectNumber. It's not being displayed when I look at the table view. I've attached an image showing the settings for the field. I am probably missing something obvious.
I am using the following code to check for duplicate tickets when importing multiple records into a datasheet view form by using the paste append function.
Code: Private Sub Ticket_Number_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) DoCmd.SetWarnings False If DLookup("Ticket_Number", "Record_Store", "Ticket_Number= '" & Me.Ticket_Number.Value & "'") > 0 Then Cancel = True MsgBox "There were import errors, please open View Import Errors above." End If End Sub
The form is used to insert multiple records into the database at a single time.
That codes works to check for duplicates. And if there are none there are no popup messages.
If there are duplicates though it gives a popup for every single Ticket_Number that is a duplicate.
I am wondering if there is a way for it to give only a single popup once it completes checking all the records to be imported for duplicates.
In design view I moved around some of the fields of a subform for them to make more sense for data entry purposes, but when I save it and go back to the main form in view, the changes are not reflected. I even tried editing it in the subform itself and it still won't reflect the changes.
I have an extremely complex database that requires 12 forms to remain open simultaneously. A command macro successfully opens all 12 forms, but 3 of the 12 are hidden from view because the window does not have enough room to display all 12. Even when I use the left / right arrows, these 3 forms are still partially hidden. How can I ensure that none of the tab controls are partially hidden behind other tabs ?
I have created a database to track our contacts for the office. I spent some time working on the relationships and making sure everything was normalized, as I've only just recently understood that concept. However, I'm afraid something got messed up in the process and I may have missed a step or done something wrong when creating the relationships.
Basically, I just created the form with all of my fields in it and when I try to view the form I see that no fields display (it's just a blank white screen). I wondered if I should actually be creating the form based off tblcontact, and then add subforms for each of the other tables.
See my attached database for further reference ...
The form is specifically made to be wider than the screen, so that there is a scroll bar at the bottom. I have an embedded picture for the background which is intended to be the size of the form, meaning that the picture is also wide.
In Design view, I can see that the background picture fits the form perfectly, which is what I want to see in Form View.
In Form view, though, the picture is squished to fit the screen. The only time it doesn't do that is if I set the Picture Size Mode to Clip, but then it only shows a portion of it, and when I scroll horizontally, the background picture doesn't scroll with it.
Is there any way to identify the Top row in a continuous view form?This changes of course as you scroll down. What I'm thinking of doing is a page jump page forward, or back. The form is based on a query and has a line number field, but I can't figure outhow to get at it in code.
There are some selection controls that require the user to enter data before the next one becomes enabled.
My form then has two different groups of controls that the user see's depending on the selections earlier, either one group or the other is made visible.
My question is how to move the view so that the appropriate group is where I want it.
If I use setfocus to a control the form moves but not how I want it to (The control that i setfocus on is half way up the screen rather than close to the top.).
I know there must be a better way, I tried move size but it didn't seem to do what i wanted.
