Forms :: Parameter Box Asking For ID
Mar 4, 2015
When I open a form 'Project Details' it throws up a parameter box asking for an 'ID'
I searched throughout the database but I can't seem to find the cause for the parameter.
I've looked at my queries, forms and table and also relationships. I don't have a field that's linked to the form called 'ID'
I've attached a copy of my relationships. Is there a way I can see what causes the parameter. I thought it was only set in queries, however there are no parameters set up in my queries.

All; using ms access 2010. In the query I use for a report; I put a parameter so the user can filter a date. It works fine but now when I go to open a form that has a subform relating to the report; users get the popup for input also. This doesn't stop the form from opening but it is annoying. There is a subform on this main form relating to the report, but the subform has a table not query for the recordsource like the report. None of the queries related to the main form that's asking for the parameter values have the parameter inthe queries. How to get rid of the parameter popup?

I have a form called "frmManageACF", query called "qryACFFill".
On frmManageACF I have a combo box (name cmbACFFill) which has three cols. col1 = SiteID, col2 = Site code, and col 3 = SiteName. The combo box Bound column is set to 1.
In qryACFFill, results are selected where SiteID=[Forms]![frmManageACF]!cmbACFFill
The query when I hit refresh always gives me the 'Enter Parameter Value' dialogue box. I have used this method of dynamically updating a query def before so not sure why it isn't working now.
Why the Parameter dialogue box is always coming up??

Hello,
I have a form "article" with a button "place an order". Click on the button opens another form ("order") where I should fill the order for the current article.
The problem : how can I tell to "order" form that I want to order the article I was on in my "article" form, and not another one ?

Can I open a "Enter Parameter Value" dialog box to capture and use the input without running a query?
something like
Code:
ParaBox ("Enter the Hostname", vbEntParameterVal, "Hostname Required")
or
Code:
Set pDialog = Application.ParaValueDialog(mso?????)
I need a short string input from the users at application load, and I'd like to use the "Enter Parameter Value" dialog.I'm about to build a workaround that will invoke a SQL statement to save the entry to a temp table, but it'd be nice if I could just call up that dialog box and store the entry as a VBA variable.

I can not remove the Enter Parameter Value. In the attached date base, go to frmEvents, and double click on one of the shows, and you will get that error. I have deleted lines of code, text boxes, and anything else that is associated with the txtSearchS.

I have a form which contains a listbox sourced from a query and several text boxes where the user can enter filters for the query. The query has references back to the form for the criteria, i.e. the filter for "Company Name" is handled in the query criteria as
Code:
Like "*" & [Forms]![HooversProspects]![SearchText] & "*"
When i exit this form in my un-compiled version it does not pop up an "Enter Parameter" box, however, when i exit this form from the compiled version it pop ups the "Enter Parameter" box for every filter I have.
How i can fix this? Perhaps change the rowsource on the query to null upon exit?

I encountered an error with my form when I used a combo box to get the set of data that I need. the combo box is from the look up value from a table, then I made a main form and attached a subform which is made from a query, after I put them together the form looks great not until I switch to another supplier or click refresh to get the new data.
One of my record is mixing to another supplier and when I checked the table where the data is recorded it was also change, so if I use this form and clicked on supplier1 the data is good, then switch to supplier2 and then click refresh or if I alt tabbed the data is there and its supplier is also changed.
I tried to delete it and retyped it but still the error sticks, also I tried to delete it permanently but still one of the data is mixing on a different supplier and its supplier in the main table is also changed. I'm using access 2007 and also a friend of mine tested it in access 2010 but the output is different it reflects the correct data.

I have attached a (slimmed down) Access 2007 database used for Asset Management and fault reporting. It opens on the main form which has a number of subforms and one sub-subform.
To make the form as user friendly as possible I am placing a number of unbound text boxes on the FormHeader to be used for search queries. The AfterUpdate event for each text box executes the necessary query, searching on the contents of the text box.
This works absolutely fine for the 'Colloquial Name' text box and associated field - this field is in the main table, RTI_Assets. The main form frmRTI_Assets is bound to this table. The query executed is called 'Colloquial Search'.
I cannot however get the 'Fault Reference' search to work on the field Supplier_Reference in the RTI_Fault table (the subform subfrmRTI_Fault is bound to this table). The query executed is called 'Fault Reference Search'.
There are 15 records in the assets table and 2 records in the faults table - with supplier references 555 and 101010.
I get prompted with Enter Parameter Value for the field RTI_Fault.Supplier_Reference if I enter 555 in the text box. Whatever I enter in this prompt I get returned to the first record.

I have a Parameter form which provides various parameters to my queries. The Parameter Form has a Combo box with a list of 50 health facilities which the user can select according to their needs.
There are instances when a user needs data from just one health facility and at times the data is needed for all the 50 health facilities in the district.
How do i address both needs without having to keep adding and deleting the criteria in the underlying queries?
I have added the 'if' condition below in the queries criteria so that if the user does not enter a facility in the combo box, it runs all facilities and if they enter a facility name then the data in the reports is limited to that health facility.
IIf(IsNull([Forms]![Parameter Form]![Combo27]),"",[Forms]![Parameter Form]![Combo27])
It does not work.
Is the expression or VBA code supposed to be entered in the Query or in the Parameter form and how do I make it work?

I've a method **querylistboxitems** and i want to call this method in several click events, only difference is listbox,dropdown values change based on the event i call.
Code:
Public Sub querylistboxitems(lstbox As listbox, dropdown As ComboBox)
Dim drpdwnvalue As String
drpdwnvalue = dropdown.Value
With lstbox
//do something
End with
End Sub
And I'm calling this in the buttion click event by passing the listbox names as **List_Compare** and **Select_CM_Compare**
Code:
Private Sub Command_compare_Click()
Call querylistboxitems_1(List_Compare, Select_CM_Compare)
End Sub
But the values passing to the function are not control names, control values i.e corresponding control selected values.
I want to use listbox name in **lstbox**, not the value.

I'm using Access 2013.
My scenario is: I have a Form to add Job Logs. This form has a cascading combo box with Clients filtering Projects. However, the Clients Combo Box is unbound, Projects is bound to the ClientProjects ID. I had to do this instead of have a key for both Clients and Projects in my Job Logs table due to the fact that Clients and Projects have a many-to-many relationship.
For Adding Job Logs this is fine.
My Problem: I have separate forms for viewing and editing Job Logs, and naturally, because Clients has no binding, every time I run these forms Access brings up the 'Enter Parameter Value' Message Box. I have tried a VB script to assign the Client ID based on the ClientProject ID value stored in the Projects combobox, on Form Load, however it still asks me to enter the Parameter Value and just writes the code in the combobox. Here's the Script:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.SelectClient = "SELECT Client ID, Client Name " & _
"FROM Client Projects Query " & _
"WHERE ClientProjectID = " & Me.SelectProject.Value
End Sub
Also, the Projects Combobox is also empty.

I have set up a Parameter query which works, and use this on a form.
What I am having a problem with is using an unbound field on the form to be the parameter.
For example in the Empty feild/box on the form I would type SMITH, and this on a click of a button next to it would run the parameter query as a subform.

I have a form with a main form and a subform, main form's function is to filter the data's inside the sub form using a combo box, right now I have one combo box which filters the data according to their control no so the output if I use say CtrlNo 1 in the combo box the data that will reflect in the subform would be the data's of CtrlNo 1 but now I'm planning to add another combo box that will filter who supplied that CtrlNo.
What I did is I used the same method from my first form that filters the CtrlNo but in this form I replaced the CtrlNo combo box to Supplier Combo box it worked great but now what it made me think is it possible to put this two filters in just one form?combo box 1 is for CtrlNo combo box 2 is for Supplier.
When I tried to create this it failed, when I filtered only the CtrlNo subform doesn't reflect any data this goes the same for the Supplier combo box but when I tried to choose a filter for both combo box say CtrlNo 1 and its Supplier this works fine but what I want is to have both filters to work even if I did not use both parameters is there any way to achieve this?

it also prompts twice when i try printing or try to save the current page as a pdf and also when i switch record? i think its a problem with the subform as it always is trying to fetch data. would there be a way to make it so that the subform and the form are linked so that the parameter query prompts once and the information stays there rather then having to prompt again when printing or saving as pdf?Two more things - on my total value box i wish to be able to always show 2 decimal places
The code already in place is :
Net : =Sum([TotalValue])
VAT: =Sum([TotalValue])*0.2
Gross: =[Text8]+[Text10]
(Net is Text8 and VAT is Text10)
i have already specified that the decimal place value is 2 instead of auto but it still doesnt work - if the number is a whole number i still wish to see .00 at the end of the field.One last thing - Would their be a way to carry over the information from my delivery note to my invoice note? which would save a lot of time retyping the parameter query.

I have a few update queries that will check X number of items, based on what the user inputs.
What I want to do (if possible), is return the number of items selected based on what they type in a message box.
I have set all warnings to false for update queries.
Example:
User runs the "Check Items By Location" query via the form, then receives a message stating "[Total Selected] Items Have Been Selected from [Location]."

I have access 2013 and this database is on a windows 8 OS,
I created 2 fields to sort data sets, and later discovered there were redundant and i could use values from a different linked table. After deleting those fields, when i open the form they still pop up as an "enter parameter value for *****" .

I have a bound form, in its heading I have a combo box which lists three choices. Basically I want to filter all my purchase records by checking a field PUOrderNb (Example: PO200100025) against the choice made in the combo box, namely DE (for demand), PO (for Purchase order) etc. On the after update event of the combo box, I have the following code:
Dim strfilter As String
strfilter = " left ([PuOrderNb],2) like " & cboFilter.Column(1)
Me.Filter = strfilter
Me.FilterOn = True
When I make a choice in the combo box, I get a window asking me to enter a parameter value and it lists the value of the combo box choice as a sort of a title just above the white input fame.When I type in PO for instance, the program does correctly filter all order numbers starting with PO, but the whole point of having a combo box is not to have to type anything.The other odd thing is, when I change the choice in the combo box, after my first choice, I do not get this parameter question but nothing happens as to filtering. The first choice remains active.

I have a pivotchart subform who's Filter Property I've set to:
Code:
[EEIC_ID] In ([Forms]![MainDataControl].[EEICBuffer],0) And
IIf([Forms]![MainDataControl].[TypeIDBuffer]="",[AG_TYPE_ID] Like "*",[AG_TYPE_ID] In ([Forms]![MainDataControl].[TypeIDBuffer],"")) And
IIf([Forms]![MainDataControl].[AgencyBuffer]="",[AGENCY_ID] Like "*",[AGENCY_ID] In ([Forms]![MainDataControl].[AgencyBuffer],"")) And
IIf([Forms]![MainDataControl].[FacilityBuffer]="",[FACILITY_ID] Like "*",[FACILITY_ID] In ([Forms]![MainDataControl].[FacilityBuffer],""))
The issue is that none of the parameters are recognizing the textbox controls even though the references appear to be correct. Per access.mvps.org/ access/forms/frm0031.htm, I've attempted several versions of the syntax.
I believe that I've done this successfully in several other forms, though none have been been via a pivotchart. What's more, this exact same filter string worked when the pivotchart was its own popup and the referenced form was a separate window. Once I embedded it (being the pivotchart) as a subform, however, I began to be presented with the "Enter Parameter Value" dialog, even though the control's address had not changed. Note: the form with the embedded pivotchart is separate from the control's parent form.
In essence: the filter property of a pivotchart subform has a parameter that references a control on a seperate popup form, and every one of the syntactual statements I've tried returns an "Enter Parameter Value" dialog (where they did not when the pivotchart was not a subform). I've also attempted to isolate this issue by putting the text box controls on the parent form (rather than the separate popup form) and referencing them via the pivotchart subform, but this provided no resolution (the same thing happened).

tried following Microsoft example and several others but my problem comes up when I click on Group in Ticket list, I get a parameter value popup. I know I'm getting it from my Where statement that is supposed to setup the row source for Category. I tried using numbers and text but I messed up somewhere when it comes to the vba.
Me.cboCategory.RowSource = "SELECT DISTINCT Category.Categories FROM" & _
" Category WHERE GroupName = " & Me.cboGroup & _
" ORDER BY Category.Categories"
Me.cboCategory = Me.cboCategory.ItemData(0)

My database has comboboxes to autopopulate fields. These comboboxes have parametered queries for row sources so that the user doesn't have to go through a long list of IDs and to make the database more efficient in case it has to hold hundreds of records. They work the first time round but not after, when the comboboxes are clicked for a second time the query parameter is not popping up.

Good Morning
Looking for the user to select a product name from a drop down box (not type in) when running query / report which will return details on only that product rather than all others in the query.
I have got major problems with the custom dialog boxes -- have got a table of product names, a query called current stock ( active products) . I can easily get a standard dialog box by putting [product code] in brackets in the query and this is not a problem. However in getting a custom dialog box I have had lots of problems.
Created a form called form999 which has product name field as a combo box and this has been named master1 . Clicking the form on it's own brings up the dialog box correctly and the drop down box selects the current products which is should do.
However linking it to the query I have put [Forms]![form999]![master1] in the query and it will not link unfortunately and is driving me mad.
Upon running the query it simply brings up the standard dialog box with [Forms]![form999]![master1] as the "enter parameter value. Understand code is required to get the OK and cancel macros working etc but when I click the query it should bring up the custom box which is the first stage and it is not ?? Any assistance would be greatly received.
Are there any sample DBs which have a field or related parameter as a customer dialog box -- have looked for examples without success.
many thanks and regards

I am creating an absenteeism database which has the following tables:
tblEmp - PK - auto number, EmpId, First Name, Last name
tblFunction - PK - FID (autonumber) has departments
tblTL - PK TLID (autonumber) has list of team leaders
tblRelated - pK - Id (auto), EmpId, TLID, FId as long integeres
tblCodes - CodeId (auto), list of absenteeism codes like late, mia, etc
EmpLeave - pk - autonumber, empid, codeid, hours, date of absenteeism
I have a Qry_Master which just joins all the information together as it gets updated on a monthly basis
Now, I am trying to create a form where the user has option to select one or more tls and one or more codes and when they hit the button, it should come up with all emps that have those codes and report to the team leader selected.
In my form, I have made both my list boxes as multiselect and i have Qry_frm that is a parameter query but when i run the button nothing happens and i cant seem to figure it out. I have attached the sample database to this thread.

On a pop up form I have a list box. The row source for the list box is
Code:
SELECT tblWebOrder.WebOrderId AS [Web Order No], tblWebOrder.CustomerWebOrderNumber, Format([WebOrderDate],"dd/mm/yyyy") AS [Order Date], tblCustomer.CustomerName AS [Customer Name], tblArea.Area FROM (tblCustomer LEFT JOIN tblArea ON tblCustomer.[PhysicalAreaId] = tblArea.[AreaId]) INNER JOIN tblWebOrder ON tblCustomer.CustomerID = tblWebOrder.CustomerId WHERE (((tblWebOrder.Processed) Like [Forms]![frmSelectWebOrderToOpen]![txtOrderStatus]) AND ((tblWebOrder.WebOrderDate) Between [Forms]![frmSelectWebOrderToOpen]![dteStartDate] And [Forms]![frmSelectWebOrderToOpen]![dteEndDate]+1)) ORDER BY tblWebOrder.WebOrderId DESC;
I have the following "On Click"event on the list box
Code:
Private Sub lstWebOrder_Click()
lngWebOrderId = Me.lstWebOrder.Column(0)
DoCmd.Echo False
DoCmd.Close
DoCmd.Echo True
End Sub
When I click on some of the records on the list box the form closes. On some of the records I get a parameter prompt to enter:
Forms!frmSelectWebOrderToOpen!txtOrderStatus
Forms!frmSelectWebOrderToOpen!dteStartDate
Forms!frmSelectWebOrderToOpen!dteEndDate
I inserted the echo commands to prevent this, but this has not worked!
Why am I getting the prompts? How do I prevent them?

I have a form with option group (two option buttons) and date fields (to select a date range). The form should pull/pass parameters from the query. There's a form button that generates a report based on the query.
Issue: I can't figure it out how to link option buttons and date range to the query so when the button is clicked it generates the report with chosen criteria. The form is for the user to enter parameters.
