I have created an ACL table (access control list) where I have the fields UserID,FormName,CanSee and CanEdit.
When the user opens the db, the on open event gets the LoggedOnUserName and then check my ACL table to either prevent viewing or editing.
I have got the prevent viewing part working, but am having a small problem with the prevent edits.
I can set the property to prevent edits, but i need the user to be able to search records. the combo box is disabled if I use the following code.
MyCount = DCount("User_ID", "dbo_NPY_ACL_User", "(dbo_NPY_ACL_User.User_ID)=" & MyUserId & " AND ((dbo_NPY_ACL_User.CanEdit)=False) AND ((dbo_NPY_ACL_User.NavBtn_ID)=" & MyTab & ")")
If MyCount > 0 Then
Me.AllowEdits = False
end if
Have the data settings for the form all allow=true And tried the VBA allowedits=true on form open but the form is still locked. Any suggestions about why? Is updating two tables from a two-table query not allowed or??? Thanks,
i am relatively new to databases so this is a fairly basic question.....
I have a form. Within this form all records are locked as i do not wish users to change details. However i am told there is an option allowing the editing of existing records upon request. is this true?, as it would improve my form greatly
I have a form which was locked down (ie Allow additions, allow edit and allow deletions were all set to no) on the Form property. I want to change this to allow edits so in design mode I changed the Allow Edits property to Yes.
I then went to Form view and was able to update fields on the form. When I exited the form it asked me if I wanted to save the changes so I clicked yes.
On going back into the form I can no longer update the fields I could before. Going into design mode I can see that Allow edits on the form property is set to no again.
What is happening here. There is nothing in the on load or other events to set this to no, besides this shouldn't change the form property should it?
I know I can get around it my setting the property in the form itself but why is the property getting reset in the first place.
How to restric forms entry to be restricted from second edits .. means if some one posted single entry one time and wanted to post second edited entry i need form to ask passoword. or not to be updated if not available the password option.
I have a form called Contacts that has two tabs. One is called General adn the other Calls.
In the General tab I have a bound field called CustomerIDdet which can be numeric or alphanumeric. I need to disable edits in the General tab but not in the Calls tab if CustomerIDdet is numeric (and it follows certain additional rules)
I have placed this code in the Onload even for the form:
Code:
If Len(CustomerIDdet) = 9 Then If IsNumeric(CustomerIDdet) Then If Right(CustomerIDdet, 4) = 9090 Then If Left(CustomerIDdet, 1) = 0 Then 'disable editing in the General tab End If End If End If End If
I know how to disable edits control by control, but can I disable edits in all controls in that tab at once?
SELECT tblClientDetails.FirstName, tblClientDetails.Surname, tblClientDetails.MobileTelephoneNumber, tblClientDetails.SentTextMarketing FROM (tblCategories INNER JOIN tblItems ON tblCategories.CategoriesID = tblItems.CategoriesID) INNER JOIN ((tblClientDetails INNER JOIN tblOrders
[Code] .....
this does not allow edits on a continuous form. the edit i am trying to do is the check box. it will allow edits if the grouping is not on but if it is not on then i will get many duplicates of client details.
so how do i set it up to allow edits but still only get one instance of each client detail.
I have a form for inputting Crisp Brands. On the form is a Txt_box for entering the crisp brand an unbound txt box for renering the text box to ensure spelling is correct and a lst_box listing all existing crisp brands in the sytem.
First question is:
1) When i open the form i only want to be able to add new entries and not be able to edit old entries. However i would like some people to have the ability to edit existing ones. Is it best to create two forms one for new entries adn one for editing or is it best to add a command button on form for editing.
I'm creating a database about Vets and I need to make a button on my menu form that will open something like message box that will allow me to type in something (in my case Customer ID) which will then apply the filter on the customer form and allow me to do edits. I have only done the macro that will open the customer form but can't figure out how to do the filter part.
I thought "Undo" was only available while in the current record.Here were my steps:
1 - Loaded form that shows 1 record per form page. 2 - Edited a record 3 - Moved to another record with status bar nav arrow 4 - Verified my edit was in the underlying table 5 - Moved back to the original record, again using status bar nav arrow 6 - Clicked my "undo" control and the original data appeared in the form 7 - Moved to another record 8 - Verified my original data was now back in the underlying table
how or what function (DLookup) should I use to prevent duplicate records based on multiple fields? I want to look at data in three fields that can't match existing data in those three fields. It's ok if one or two of the fields match but not all three.
I have a timesheet data base and I wanted to find a way to restrict employees from editing other employees timesheets only their own timesheet... .is it possible with access 2010?
I have a simple split form with datasheet on the bottom and a couple of comboboxes (unbound) on the form header which the user can use for filtering the data. When some users open the form the allowedit property of the form is set to false, because those users can only view the records. But the result is that also the comboboxes cannot be set, hence no filtering!
I am receiving an unexpected message when a user tries to launch a form that the user does not have permission for via the Access Security-Permissions setting that I have configured.
I am trying to set my Access db up so that Guest users can only access 2 Forms - the Switchboard and the Main form. There is a Maintenance Form and I don't want Guest users having access to it.
I have configured Security and created a Group named Guestgrp. I have also created a user named Guest that is assigned to the Users and Guestgrp groups.
The Users group is currently set up with NO permission for any form.
Here are the Guestgrp permissions for the forms, db and tables
The following forms have Open/Run and Read Design permission Switchboard MainForm
The following forms have NO Permissions selected Maintenance Form
The database permission is set to Open/Run
Table permissions The Guest group has Read Design and Read Data permission for all tables
so here is what happens............... My Guest user can log in and launch the Switchboard form and can launch the Main Form from the switchboard. BUT...................... When my Guest user clicks on the Switchboard button for the Maintenance Form, the following message pops up: There was an error executing the command.
Is this the normal way for Access to indicate that the user does NOT have permission to access a form? I am guessing/hoping that it isn't and if configured properly there would be a message indicating that permission is denied or something of that nature.
If anyone has any comments, suggestions on the error in my ways, I appreciate any comments/suggestions/clarifications.
I have an Access 2003 database. I have a form with 5 tabs. I want to prevent some users from editing data on some of the tabs.
I added some logic to the OPEN property of the parent form but it does not work. "Object doesn't support this property or method." What is the correct way of controlling access of the data on the tabs?
In the logic below I first determine the user's permission for each tab. If the user has read-only access they will not be allowed to edit anything on this tab. There are 50 fields on the accounting tab and a subform. If possible, I don't want to have to specify each field individually in the code. Plus there are 5 tabs with numerous fields on each.
BTW: [add designer] is the parent form and [accounting] is the tab.
If DLookup("[permission_studentacct_ReadOnly]", "Users", "Contact_ID = " & Forms![Global]![UserID]) = True Then Forms![Add Designer].[Accounting].AllowEdits = False Else End If
I am putting the student names in a form. I want it to alert me that a name is duplicated. But thats not this simple. For example a name is Jennifer Locus but I type jenifer with one . Can access guess that this might be the same person and suggest me to correct the spelling or enter it as a new person?
the proper code to prevent duplicate records in my form?
I'm using:
Private Sub Ctl_Lname_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) Dim dupCount As Long dupCount = DCount("*", "Clients", "[LastName]= '" & Me.[LastName] & "'" & " And " & "[PreferredName] = '" & Me.[PreferredName] & "'") If dupCount <> 0 Then Beep MsgBox
[code]....
"This name already exists in the database. Please check that you are not entering a duplicate person before continuing.", vbOKOnly,
I am trying to prevent any foolish behavior from taking place upon a form. I have textboxes and comboboxes that users need to input data into or make selections within.
I came up with a method to prevent Paste as follows:
Code: Private Sub ComboBox_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer) Call PurgeClipBoard() End Sub
[Code].....
However if I remove the MsgBox logic then the Cut is not prevented.
Note you need to include the Declares for those api functions if you use them.
Is there a way I can prevent wrapping in a memo field box?
I have a memo field with a list of email addresses and usernames however the email addresses often just wrap around the end of the memo box just creating a new line in the memo box rather than properly showing the email without the wrapping.
Even if the message scrolls out of the box, id rather that then wrap the text.
Also is there a way in which I can enable someone to open the "ZoomBox" whilst the text box is locked/disabled.
Im trying to prevent duplicate records based on a PO # (RA_PO_Nbr), entered from a form. I'm trying to throw a 3022 error when the user attempts to enter a record that already exists, but I dont necessarily have to do it this way.
Code: Private Sub cmdSubmit_Click() On Error GoTo cmdSubmit_Click_Error Dim db As Database Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim strSQL As String strSQL = "CompanyPOTable"
I've been trying to use some code I've found to prevent a user from entering a duplicate ID. I've tried this:
Dim Answer As Variant Answer = DLookup("[SAR_ID]", "Request", "[SAR_ID] = '" & Me.SAR_ID & "'") If Not IsNull(Answer) Then MsgBox "Duplicate SAR ID Found" & vbCrLf & "Please enter again.", vbCritical + vbOKOnly + vbDefaultButton1, "Duplicate"
Cancel = True Me.SAR_ID.Undo Else: End If
but it displays the message even if I don't enter a duplicate.
