Forms :: Opening Form To A Specific Record From Subform
Jan 28, 2014
I have a form that displays details for a specific asset and a continuous subform that lists all the purchases for that asset. I have the following code in the On Click event for one of the fields in the subform:
Dim myOrder As Integer
myOrder = Me.txtOrder
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmOrders", acNormal, , "OrderID=" & Order, acFormEdit, , "Edit"
The problem is, when I click on any item in the subform, the code returns the value of the first item in the form rather than the one clicked on. If I open the subform on its own (outside the main form) then the code works fine. I can't figure out why it won't work in a subform.
I've done this dozen's of time - but it doesn't seem to be working now. I have a continuous form (frmHome) where i want a user to be able to click on a record, and be able to open up that specific record in "frmCustomer". The key field here is pkCustomerID (i have it in the query).
I have a form "frm_PatientNew" based on table "tbl_patients", this form contains a button "cmd_NewVisit" which is supposed to do the following: opens the form "frm_NewVisit" for recording a new visit for the last recorded patient in "tbl_Patients", I found many approaches depending on DMax and Dlookup and they worked fine just if "frm_NewVisit" is bound to "tbl_Patients", but "frm_NewVisit" is bound to "tbl_Main" which acts as a container for all information (patient data, visit data,service done and service provider), so the form "frm_NewVisit" contains fields from different tables. I wonder if I should create "frm_NewVisit" as unbound form, then adding fields from different tables to it and using vba to populate "tbl_Main",
I have a form with a subform. Every time I open the form I want it to open to a new record in the subform (but not necessarily a new record in the main form; that will depend on some other stuff that I've already taken care of).I found a way to do that using the following VBA in the main form:
Private Sub Form_Current() Me.EventSubform.SetFocus DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec End Sub
It works great, but it causes Access to automatically scroll down to the start of the subform, blocking the view of information in the main form that the user needs to see. I've tried adding a line to Form_Current() to reset the focus to the main form but it doesn't seem to work.
But it returns every record for that agent and I want to be able to specify the date that goes with the name.
For example Tom has a record for Feb 10, Jan 10, and Dec 13. I only want to see the record for Dec 13.
I am able to see this in my form by having a combo box for the agent and the date (the date box being based on the agent box). So now how can I add a condition to include the date combo box?
Adding the condition gives me and type mismatch error, which I think may come down to the date combo box on the form having 3 columns (only 1 is visible).
I've initiated a log on procedure, with a password.
A user enters their ID and password. Once the correct password is entered, the next form is then loaded up, to which they make some choices.
My problem is that I have lots of users, and I would like them to only access the page that is relevant to themse, and NOT be able to see anyone elses.
I gather there is a little bit of tweaking to go on the docmd.openform...
line, and somehow incorporate the userID, but not entirely too sure what it is.
I have a Calibration form, with a button on it that links to an Equipment Inventory form. In the Calibration form, you choose the instrument you want to calibrate from a combo box (which in turn automatically selects the barcode number for the instrument in another combo box), then if you need to edit info on it (ie. serial number), you click the button
Now, I need the Equipment Inventory form to open to the record that matches the bar code in the second combo box
I have a table that has two forms linked to it - one is the Main Form which is used to input the data for the bulk of entries, however on some entries there will be some additional data required which the other form (lets call it Time Form) takes care of.
What I would like to do is have a button on the Main Form that opens the Time Form, and then go to the specific record that is open on the Main Form;I have an ID field (Autonumber + Primary Key) which displays in a text box on the main form, and it would provide the number of the record for the second form to open.
I have a master form for lack of a better phrase and 3 other forms that represent specific items in the original drop down box. In the master drop down box, I have all 50 states, and the 3 forms are for 3 specific states. Here's the code I have so far but when I save, it says "The 'OpenForm' macro action has an invalid value for the 'Where Condition' agrument."
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Private Sub State_AfterUpdate() Select Case Me.State Case "CA" DoCmd.OpenForm "Auditor Form (CA)"
I am new to access i have a problem which is i have made a form which contains a subform and a read only subreport, what i want is the ability to select a record in read only subreport as in the picture attached and make a button that when i press on it, it should copy the values of the itemsID field, Packing field, ContainerNo field and origin field from the selected record and then paste them in the subform below.
Also i want to add more then one item, so the when i press on another record it should paste the values below the first record.
I have a main form and a nested subform. The main form is based on customer details and displays customer name and the customer primary key (custID). When this form is opened i pass two parameters to it, BPID and SIID. A BP is a business picture and a SI is a sales interaction. These are in a one to many relationship.
The subform displays a sales interactions (si) of a business picture (bP).The subform is set up with master child links of custid;bpid. This restricts the subform to only showing records for the a specific customer and specific BP (the user can cycle through all the linked SI's using the record selectors.
When the main form is opened I want the subform to display the sales interaction the user has selected when opening the main form based on the passed SIID but cannot get this to work. At the moment the subform just displays the first record.
I want to hyperlink from a query direct to the relevant record in a specific form. I have a hyperlink field in the form which shows up in the query. When clicked in the query, this hyperlinks to the form but I cannot make it select the correct record in the form.How do I get it to select the correct record?
I am trying to run a macro on doubleclick in a subform (dataview) that will open the same record in a popup form (tabular).
I've enter in the macro Where Condition the following statement to only show the record I doubleclicked on in the popup. The only problem is it's asking me for a parameter value for the LogID. Its apparently not picking up the LogID I doubleclicked on. Is there any way I can fine-tune this WHere statement so that it knows the record LogID I clicked on. (The pop up form should show only the same record).
I am trying to open a single form with a single subform with a command button. I would like to open the form with the subform on a specific record but I am not entirely sure how to do this, I was wondering if someone had any advice that could help.
I have a form that displays customer account information. The form is connected to two tables. each customer has their own account number that i use to lookup their information. right now i have to click on the account number field and click find to pull up the record. I have built a popup form that displays the customers names with their respcetive accounts. My question is, How can i use the popup form to select a customer name and have the main form goto that record without using the find button.
I have created a database with a switchboard and a form ("RMA"). Currently, on my "RMA" form I have a command button that allows the user to find a specific record by entering an RMA number into an input box. My code is as follows:
Private Sub cmdFindRMA_Click() Dim myFilter as String If vFindRMA = "" Then 'vFindRMA is a global variable, string. vFindRMA = InputBox ("Enter the RMA Number to find:", "Find RMA", "", 5000, 3000) myFilter = "[RMA_Number]='" & vFindRMA & "'" Me.Filter = myFilter If Me.Filter = "" Then Me.FilterOn = False Else Me.FilterOn = True End If End If vFindRMA = "" End Sub
I want to be able to remove this command button from my RMA form and add it to my Switchboard. My problem is, I don't know what code I need to use in order for it to work from the switchboard. Can anyone help?
Basically I have a database that records commitments for clients. The user can go a client form, and within that form there is a subform which shows each expenditure commitment for that person (wihtin the subform there is also another subform that shows all income attached to each commitment). The user can use the Next and Previous buttons to navigate through the expenditure commitments (and the same if they want to navigate through the income commtiments within each expenditure commitment).
If you double click on any specific commitment whithin any part of the subform, then the expenditure commitment form (or the income commitment form if it is an income one) opens to allow the user to change stuff.
My database is set up so that each time a form opens the previous form closes. So when the user has the commitment form open and clicks close, the client form will re-open. My issue is that is always goes back to showing the very first commitment and the user then has to navigate back through till they find the one they have just updated.
What I would like to be able to do is when the user closes the commitment for that the client then the form opens up with the specific subform on the screen that they have just changed.The code I currently have written on the Close command of the Commitment is as follows:
Code:
Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String stDocName = "frmTotalCommitmentsbyClient stLinkCriteria = "[FrameworkID]='" & Me![FrameworkID] & "'" DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmCommitments"
I essentialy just need the bit that would also say show the subform (which is called subfrmComms2) where the commitmentID = the commitment ID on the Commitment form.Now just to really complicate matters, I would also like this to happen if someone has the Income Commtiment form open and they close it, only the Income Commitment subform is actualy a subform of subfrmComms2 (above), but equally the income commitment form has within it the Expenditure ID, the Income ID and the FrameworkID.
I have a continuous form for which the recordsource is a query that retrieves dates from 10 days in the past to 10 days in the present. I want the record with today's date to be at the top of the form. The record with the oldest date is always on top. Is this a scrolling issue? How can I get the record with today's date to appear on top?
I need to open up a form to specific records in its subform based on user input from combo boxes (Customer and/or PKGEngineer). The two combo boxes are on a switchboard. How can this be done?
I have a table with a schedule of tasks that are required weekly for the next year. Each record has Monday's date as the Scheduled_Date" for the task. From my main form, I have a command button to open a form linked to the table, so that amendments can be added to the table for each record (i.e. - If a task is complete/incomplete/progressing etc. the user marks it so.
What I would like to do is have the form open at the task scheduled for the current week, based on the "Scheduled_Date" value. Whilst I can do this with a simple filter, I would like the form to open with all records available to the user so that they can go forwards/backwards as they wish, but the first record they see when the form opens is the one specific to this weeks date.
1. I have a switchboard. I want to click a button, that opens a form with a dropdown list, when I make my selection, it opens a subform in add mode, but the linked field in the subform isn't empty, but filled with the mainform's field value that I selected?
OR
2. Is there a way for me to open a form in add mode, add data to it, click the add button (I will add an add button) that allows me to add again, but this time a particular field is not empty, but filled with selected info from previous selection?
Say for instance, I have 2 fields (both combo box fields), I click add, made selections for both fields, I click add again, but this time one of the fields stays constant like it's already been selected. It's filled with what was selected from before.
1. I have created a button in a switchboard with embedded macro:-
Close Window OpenForm (Form name: frmCustomerFind)
2. I have created a form "frmCustomerFind), in which I can select a customer name in a combo box named "CustomerName".
a. The row source: SELECT [tblCustomer].[CustomerID],[tblCustomer].
[CustomerName] FROM tblCustomer ORDER BY [CustomerName];
b. After Update Macro:
Open Form (Form name: frmCustomer) SearchForRecord (Object Type: Form Object Name: frmCustomer Record: First Where Condition = "[CustomerID]=" & Me.CustomerID
At the end, the form "frmCustomer" does open but not go to the record I want. It goes to the first record instead. (The frmCustomer has the "CustomerID" and "CustomerName" fields).
Need to open a form to a specific record.Ive done the command button wizard that opens the form to a specific record but but that brings up the form with the filtered button showing.I've tried to put the formula into the filtered section but that doesn't work.I just want to be able to open the form to the specif record and then be able to navigate to other records if required (without aving to press the filtered button)
Currently, I have a form with tabbed pages in it. The second tab, I have a subform inserted into it. I have a completely separate form that looks through records. I want to be able to click on a record from the separate form and open the Main tabbed form, to the second tabbed page, to a specific record. Currently I have:
Private Sub Form_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String stDocName = "frm_Main_Data_Entry" DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria Forms![frm_Main_Data_Entry]![pgAgreement].SetFocus End Sub
Which opens up to the tabbed page just fine. but I can not figure out how to get to a specific record.
Also, the subform in the tabbed page, doesn't have the same controls as the Main tabbed Form itself, so when I add something like:
I have three forms: Form1 that contains subform1 and Form2 which is totally separate. Form1 contains a listbox that I use as a search form. When a record in the listbox is clicked, it populates Subform1 with more details.
If I am in Form2, I would like to be able to click a record which opens the listbox in Form1 to the same record (this will automatically update subform1 with the details).
