Forms :: Open New Form From Selected Group Of Records
Aug 8, 2013
I'm developing a database where people basically can fill in an order form and then the database can track if the order has been placed, when it came in etc.I have a form called frm_Suppliers to be Ordered that runs off a query. The tables that relate to the query are called tbl_Products, with a primary key called ID and tbl_Suppliers, with a primary key called Supplier ID.
The form called frm_Suppliers to be Ordered, shows a list of suppliers that have open orders. Each supplier may have several orders open. I want to be able to click a button after each supplier name and bring up a continuous form that relates to all the records from that supplier that have open orders.
I have tried using the code found in the thread called "open a form based on the record that is selected in current form" from 06-08-2011, however it will only work when my form lists each open order separately, not when they are grouped by supplier.

I have a form listing tasks to which I make personnel assignments with a multi-value list field type. It takes some time to select from 15-25 employees on the list for each task, especially considering that small groups of employees will be assigned to the same selection of tasks.
What I want to do is select multiple records with the mouse, then click a command button opening a form in dialog mode with the selection list. The user then clicks to make his selections and clicks ok, which then updates the multi-select field for the selected records.

I have a form that updates records. When the user opens the form in data entry mode, it is too difficult to find the correct record. What is the most efficient and simple way to have the form open to a specific record?
Solutions I have considered are a popup form that the user will enter the equipment code (which is the unique identifier of all records). Also, the user may not know the record number, but they will always know the equipment code (which is a field in the "equipment" table).
But I am not sure of the best way/best order to do this.
Thanks.

I'm working on a database for residents at a care home. I've just started and I want to automate a process where I can click a button and see the contact details of a GP. It's all working but I want it to be that if the resident has no GP it will open a form so you can choose a GP. I have a message box to tell the that the resident has no GP and it takes them to the relevant form but I need it to be based on the correct residents ID and it is not. I have the code running on form load. I have attached a zipped version of the database (it is safe I promise)

Yet another question.
I have a listbox on a form that show all Files for a particular volunteer. I have an "Edit File" button below the listbox to be able to edit that particular file. Is there a way about opening that form to that specific record without using a query?
Thanks

Hi folks,
I have created a form, which extracts records from a table and displays them in
a list box. This works, but what I want to do next is highlight a single record in
that list box, click a button and have the record open in another form. This is
the code I have at present:
Private Sub DisplayEnquiry_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_DisplayEnquiry_Click
Dim dispCriteria As String
dispCriteria = "[SupportEnquiriesTable].[EnquiryID]='" & Forms![Search All].[ListSearch].Column(0) & "'"
DoCmd.OpenForm "Support Enquiries", , , dispCriteria
Exit_DisplayEnquiry_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_DisplayEnquiry_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_DisplayEnquiry_Click
End Sub
When I try this I get an error "The OpenForm action was canceled. You used a method of the DoCmd
to carry out an action in Visual Basic, but then clicked Cancel in a dialog box."
I've double-checked that I've typed in the correct names etc. so I am at my wits end!
Can anybody help me out?
Thanks

I have a report that is based on a query. The query has filters in it based on user info entered from a form. So the form asks the user to select which division of the company, and the date range for when the info applied to. My issue is that I am trying to set a macro that opens this form whenever some tries to open the report.
But the macro appears to run the query before it opens the form and it gives me a generic message box asking for the division. After I type that in (instead of selecting from a drop down list like I have on my form) another window pops up asking for start date, etc...instead of opening the form I created. What am i doing wrong and how do I get the macro to open my form? If I open the form directly and enter the criteria, it runs the report correctly.

Hi again,
One last one that's been niggling me - I just can't fathom the code... I bet it's very simple...
I have a Form ("frmJobSummary") that shows all the jobs for a customer - the customer is selected and the Customers ID is stored in a Control called "CustomerID" (It's just a number)
I have a button that opens up a new form... "frmEditJob" This allows you to add a job to a customer. I know how to get it to open up as a new record... but...
How do I get it to open up as a new record (or job) for the customer selected on the form "frmJobSummary"?
Here's the code so far... all it does is open the form with the Current record. :(
Your help is, as always, most appreciated!
Private Sub OpenNewJob_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_OpenNewJob_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "frmEditJob"
stLinkCriteria = "[CustomerFK]=" & Me![CustomerID]
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit_OpenNewJob_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_OpenNewJob_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_OpenNewJob_Click
End Sub

I have a parent form showing some of the contents of a single record in a parent table. This form contains a button that opens a specific subform (using an IF statement based on the contents of another field in the parent table/form. There are actually any of 8 child forms/tables that could be selected and the related record is in only one of them. The relation between the tables is based on the PK of the parent table and the related FK in the child table. and the data is correct in all tables.
My problem is that when I run this button on the parent form/table it returns the appropriate form/table, but displays the first record rather than the related record. In the past (using this same process) I have been successful in getting to the right record by fiddling with the where statement (sometimes putting in a equal sign or taking it out fixes the problem). However, no matter what I do to the Where statement nothing works. I have not yet placed the final else condition for where the form selection field (VMValIdentType] is empty yet as there is no point at this time.
Here are the button macro contents:
If [VMValIdentType] = "Software"
OpenForm
Form Name: tmpVMValSW
View: Form
Filter Name:
[code]...

I have a main form [Job Quote Form 10-2205] and I am trying to add a command button to open up [Job Process Form-MKD] and have the [Job Process Form-MKD] open up and only show the records that match a certain field, in this case what I call "JobTrackNo" in the [Job Process Form-MKD]. (see attached .jpg)
This problem started to happen only recently, namely you will see that the left column under [Job Quote Form 10-2205] is blank, where normally there had been a number of fields to choose from. The fields are all still available, they are just not opening when I try to match two fields.

I would like to export selected records (from list box) to .xls file, also populate the same value to all selected records. The value will be entered on the form once.
I'm attaching a small sample DB, so you can see what I have so far.
The Export function, or the update record functions.

I have a form that has four combo boxes on it that enable the user to select entrants in a golf tournament for tee off times and tee. (I have attached part of this database to this post) It all works fine but after selecting the first player in the first combo box and then selecting the second combo player I would like the player selected previously not to show up. Is this possible or do I have to rethink the way players are selected.

I've got a table, where each record is a group of students. So the fields include Student1, Student2, Student3, etc. I know this is bad database design, but I've done this because I want the group number (primary key) to be automatically generated.
Now, I want to add more information for each of these students as if they're seperate records but I also want an autonumber for the group.

I have a table with RandomID, EmpID, CompanyID. Some Companies will have great than 25 employees. I need to setup a query where I can randomly select all employees from all companies whos employee count is less than 25.
I have tried the following:
SELECT top 10 percent Count(*), empID
FROM tlbCompany
Group By empID
HAVING Count(*)<25
ORDER BY rnd(RandomID);
This counts the total number of employees, so if a company has 10 employees, it will only display one of the them.
Can this query be done?
And, what am I doing wrong?
Thanks to all that help....

OK
I have read through I think every post with the word email in the title ! and in the subject... and tried various bits of code that were posted, but can't get anything to work... :mad:
Here is what I want to do.
I have a form (based on a qry called "QryInvoices Due") which brings up a list of people.
On this form is a field called "send email?" which is a tick box which the user can select.
I also have a command button ! which When Clicked I want it to do the following.
Send an email to all of the recipients which have "send email?" as YES
their email addr is in a field called "Contact email"
I don't want the email as an attachment, I don't need the message or even the subject included (although wld be nice as will be fairly static i think :) )
All I want is it to bring me up the Outlook New Message with all the recipients in it, I can add the subject and message then if necessary. Oh and there's more !! ;) I need the recipients to be in the bcc field as I don't want them all to see each other, the to: field can be blank or the first recipient whatever.
Anybody got any code that I can just copy and paste !! and that will miracleously work (sp?) ... Hope u can follow what I;m looking for..
Many thanks in advance

Hi,
On my form I have an option group with 4 radio buttons. Depending on the button selected certain fields become visible. This works all fine. Problem is though that I don't know how to store the selected value. At the moment, every time you open the form you have to select the same button to see the info stored in the fields that become visible. I guess that I'll have to somehow store the value for the selected buttons in the table. But How? Do I refer to the frame and store the value corresponding to the number of button (1, 2, 3 or 4) or do I store the balue for each button seperately?
I've played with it for too long now and cannot find the golden tip. Please advice.
Thanks,
Walt

I'm having a problem trying to have my query place the group record count on my form. The scenario is this: I have the query name (SPED Main Query Count) group the School Name field and then count the school name which in turn gives me a count of each school. but for some reason the field in the table name School Cnt will not build a relationship with the Countofschool Name in the query in my relationship.

I have a form (Student Details) that has an unbound lookup box using a query to select a student. The lookup has the hidden Student ID autonumber key field plus Class Number, Last Name, First Name, Status, sorted by Class Number (descending), Last Name, First Name.
The form record source is a similar but unsorted query.
There are nearly 1000 student records. The form has pages (tabs). The lookup box is in the form header. There are dozens of fields in the 1st Page (General) including an picture (attachment, not hyperlink) field holding a photo of the student, the other 6 pages have less.
When you select a student via the look up, at least one sometimes more students "flash" before it displays the one you want, which seems to display twice before it stops.
I deleted the picture field to see what difference that made, because it seemed to do the most flashing, and indeed, without that field you go right to the record. I looked at the Student table indexes and it seems that field type is not index-able, which is understandable.
Is there any way to improve this with still leaving the photos as attachments? Some thoughts:
It improves if it is displayed first as an Icon or Paper Clip, and probably would if a hyperlink field, but we like to have the picture displayed and not have to open the link to see it nor worry about the location changing invalidating a link. It seems that if the record was displayed with the picture field only filled after all the other fields were filled it would make for a better impression.
Can an On Load form event VBA or Macro be written that either hold the picture back until the rest of the fields are displayed or if an icon or changed to a hyperlink to open. Would it work if the pictures were attached to a separate joined table?

I am building a tracking database where we would be able to track information which field are null data and report them to our Administration to fill the null data. For this I have created a form name "Search" and I have a combo box control on that form which is bound to "Table = employee" and its ROW SOURCE TYPE="Field List", I would like to able to query records where the selected value in this combo box is null through out the table.
For example if I select "Telephone" from this combo box dropdown, I would like the query to show all the records where the "Telephone" is null, how to set the criteria in query to take the combo box value as "Field Name" and then compare it with the Field/Column in the table and show the null values.
