Forms :: Pre-populating A Subform
Apr 21, 2015
I have a Form1 and Sub Form2...Form1 is a list of tasks: Each task has a quantity of Items.The forms are in Datasheet format.I have a list of people who can only do specific tasks and at present my Form2 is able to only select the relevant people for that task.The only way to "Trigger" who can do which task is to populate what quantity of work I want them to do. ie. create a link.
Is there anyway of clicking the little + button on Form1 that it prepopulates the total quantity to Form2 therefore creating a link and therefore being able to select who can do that task.If you look at the pic I want Items in the dropdown box to pre populate with the same amout as in the Form1 Items ie "1"

A subform on a main form is not populating after the user clicks on the subform and then returns to the main form and updates the field which the subform is linked to. The first time the subform populates absolutely okay; however once the user clicks on the subform and then returns to the mainform and updates the field which the subform is linked to the subform goes blank.

I have database as follows,
1- student table: stID (PK), firstName, lastName
2-course table: courseID (PK), courseName, courseDescription
3- studentCourse: stID(FK),courseID (FK)
Now, I have created a main form based on student table and a subform based on studentCourse table. However, because I needed to populate the courseName and CourseDescription in the subform I changed its record source to a query (stID, courseID, courseName, courseDescription) so that when I move between the subform records the courseName and courseDescription still show in the subform.
To populate the courseName and courseDescription in the subform I changed the courseID to a combobox so that it brings the courseName and courseDescription from the course table and show it in the subform.
Everything is working fine so far BUT when I choose to input a courseID manually into the combobox, it does not populate the courseName and courseDescription as it does when I choose the courseID from the combobox.

I have a form (Form1) with subform (SForm1) embedded in it. Now my Form1 is based on query (query with search criteria) which is dynamically linked (with VBA code). I want to populate SForm1 dynamically with records based on one field (customerID) of Form1.
I am able to populate Form1 with search query, however, the SForm1(subform) is not populated. The SForm1 is based on query with criteria which is supplied by (customerID) in the Form1.
Any help is appreciated.
Thankx in advance.
Prodigy.

I am following mice and am trying to build a form that lets me add a new mouse to the database. I want to be able to either enter the the unique mouse id of the mother if I know it or be taken to another form that lets me identify the mother from the females already in my system. I know this is possible because I have seen examples of it where, in the find mother form, I give the strain name in a combo box which narrows down the selection of mice in the DOB combo box which in turn narrows down the unique mouse id which is the information I really want. I then want to carry that id back to the original form to enter it as the mother id.
In an ideal world the database would recognize this id being put in for a mother and note in the mothers record that she has had a litter. The litter id, which I am currently composing of motherid&fatherid&DOB, would go into the mothers record.

This is a DATASHEET VIEW, not a table.
I have a table that has the part number, the description, and the usage.
I am stumped on trying to get just the 2 fields to populate into this subform (datasheet view), when the part number is selected. I may have several lines of part numbers. How do I go about populating this form? The user will indicate the actual quantity. The quantity changes per order, yet the usage stays the same.
Any suggestions?

I have 2 forms. Information from one field links both forms (though it is not the primary key). Using a "open form" button I want the field on the second form to be populated with the contents from the same field on the first form, when a user selects the open form button. I imagine all of this is very doable in SQL, however I am using Access GUI to construct my database and have no time to learn SQL at this stage. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I am new to access but I am creating a form on access 2010 for a Pass Request. On the form so far I have two cascading combo boxes that work great so far. The problem is that once a name is selected from the second combo box(cboFullNames) I want a textbox underneath to populate(txtOrg). I have tried using requery and refresh but it never works. The only thing that seems to pull up the information is pressing the refresh button.

I have a mainform. I select from a couple of combo boxes. Based upon these selections, it pulls up appropriate info in subform #1.
There is a field in subform #1 which I want to populate a field in subform #2 with (automatically).
What kind of "event" is this? After/before? I tried everything, nothing works.
Let's try these naming conventions:
Main form = mainform
Subform #1 = subform1
Subform #2 = subform 2
Field Subform #1 = fieldsubform1
Field Subform #2 = fieldsubform2
Help me write the code and help me locate where to put that code. It's been troubling me for a long time.
Thanks, I hope someone can help me out.

Hey all.
I'm trying to get a combo box to populate the box next to it.
Basically pick a project number in the 1st box and have the project name show up in the second box.
I have it working, but the problem is that when it puts in the name of the project, it fills the whole column with that name, and not just the one box.
Here is what it's doing:
http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/2659/dbhm4.jpg
Here is the code im using.
Private Sub ProjectNumber_AfterUpdate()
On Error Resume Next
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSQL As String
ProjectNumber.SetFocus
If ProjectNumber.Value > 0 Then
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM ProjectList WHERE ID = " & ProjectNumber.Value
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
If Not rs.BOF Then
Me.ProjectName = rs("ProjectName")
End If
rs.Close
Set rs = Nothing
db.Close
Set db = Nothing
End If
End Sub
Let me know what I can do.
Thanks!!

I am trying to populate a textbox based on selection from combo box. Both fields are in two different subforms within the same form.
I do see the selection from the combo box fills via debug. I don't see a value in the textbox.
This is the code I am using:
Private Sub cboRequestedItems_Change()
Me.PricePerUnit.Value = Me.cboRequestedItems.Column(1)
End Sub

I have an address box that I would like to auto populate with a double click event. Basically, if the location address is the same as the main company address, and there isn't any data already in the location field, then I would like the user to be able to just double click the location address and the field gets automatically populated with the main company address.
Private Sub Address_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
If IsNull(Me.Address) Then
Me!Address = Me.CompanyName.Column(1)
End If
So this works fine if the main company address actually has an address in it. But if it doesn't then double clicking the location address produces a run time error 3315 for trying to populate a null value.

In my database table I have a MainMember_Tbl which contains address fields. I also have a related table (via a field called Member_ID) called JointMember_Tbl which also contains address fields. For any particular member, mostly there is no joint member, but when there is a joint member the address fields are often the same as for the main member, but not always.
In the case when they are the same, I would like to use a button within the data input form for the joint member to 'duplicate' the address fields saved in the MainMember_Tbl - For example ....
Some how set..
[JointMember_Tbl]. Add1 = [ManinMember_Tbl].Add1
[JointMember_Tbl]. Add2 = [ManinMember_Tbl].Add2
etc...

Hi Experts! I'm having a problem that I hope some of the experts can help me with. I am in the process of designing a database for a health insurance company that does health fairs.
I need to have a data entry form for the nurses to enter the Health Fair results. I created a form for them to search for the Employer group. They type first few letters of the group, click "find group" button and it brings up a subform (frmGroup_sub) with the filtered group. I then have the group number (field PARGRP) hyperlinked to bring up another entry form (frmHF_entry) when clicked. I need the user to be able to find the group, click on the group number, then bring up another form which autopopulates that PARGRP from frmGroups_sub into the new form, frmHF_entry and stores that group number in the table tblHF. Further, they will need to do more than one "employee" for the pargrp. So I was going to make a subform of frmHF_entry where they could enter multiple records for that same PARGRP.
I just confused myself and probably all of you...but the problem I am having is I cannot get PARGRP from frmGroups_sub when clicked to open and auto populate the form frm_HFEntry.
Here is a screen print, maybe it will help explain what I need.

I am displaying records from a table on a form line after line like a spreadsheet/data sheet.
I want to do 2 things.
When the user clicks anywhere on a new row to add data I want to populate that row with some data from the row above.
I also want to protect certain fields on each line (but not all lines!)
So basically if the user is presented with
old model number.....new model number..Added by.....date
123456...................77777777................. Fred..........15/10/2014 10:11:12
77777777..................8888.................... .John..........16/10/2014 12:12:12
8888..........................6767................ .....Jack..........16/10/2014 14:11:12
6767..........................4321................ ......Joe..........17/10/2014 10:11:12
I want to protect all of the 1st 3 rows and the old model number in the last row.
When they tab or click into the new row I want the old model number populated with the new model number.

As simple as it sounds. I have set up a table with a list of items and the costs. I then created a form with a list comprising 10 combo boxes. I want to be able to select one record from the underlying table per combobox on the form.
I am able to do this but the records in the underlying table keeps switching to the primary key field as I go along using the combobox.

I am trying to build a build calender to display customer orders on given days. I have the calender in place with intentions of having a list box on each day to display the orders.We have a daily report that is an excel file that lists these orders. I have linked this file to an access table in my db.
I am able to use this linked table to run a query and generate a report without any problems.When I try to use the information in this table to populate a list or combo box the only fields that will display are all numbers. If I use a field like "Customer Name" I get no information displayed. The data in excel and access are both set as text.

I have a form in which I want to capture today's date when another field on that form is changed from active to Closed. In excel I would write an IF statement but can't get my head round what I would do in Access to achieve the same result. basically it's if (field name 'status')=(criteria 'closed') then populate field (date closed with 'today's date').
