Forms :: Recordset Filters From One User Affecting All Users On A Form?

Jul 10, 2013

Here is the environment:

Currently, I have 10 Users running a front end form that connect to back end data where they add to current records and eventually check that the record is complete.

I also have an "Apply Filter" button on the right hand side of the form that allows the user to apply filters to the records to show specific data that is not complete.

I am currently hearing that while the user is working, whether they apply filter or not, it seems as though all of a sudden, all of their completed work dissapears from their recordset hence not allowing them to go back to make changes to it if needed. I can only conclude that when a different user clicks apply filter, all users are affect some how... here are some examples of the code for the filter:

Code:
Select Case [cboFilterValues] ' Where the user selects a filter parameter from a dropdown
Case "All Data"
strSQL = "SELECT * " & _
"FROM [Data Table] " & _
"WHERE [Complete] = No

Then it does:

Code:
Me.RecordSource = strSQL

I am basically trying to find a way where only the user wanting to view the filter is affected... FYI, the other users arent actually seeing all the filters from the other user filter choice, they simply loose all their completed work from their form.

Forms :: RecordSet Bound Form No Longer Filters

Sep 24, 2014

I have a number of forms that are bound to recordsets as follows:

Dim rs As New adodb.Recordset

sqlQuery = "Select * from myTable"
rs.Open sqlQuery, sqlCNN, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic
Set Me.Recordset = rs
Set rs = Nothing

In Access 2003, users could open these forms and filter on basically any field by using the right click-> Text Filters functionality.

In Access 2010, this functionality appears to work (users can apply the filter and the Toggle Filter button in the ribbon shows a filter is applied), but all of the records are still visible in the form.

Any work-around that does not involve redesigning the form to be non-recordset bound?

Forms :: Creating Report Menu To Allow User Filters

Aug 26, 2013

I have been tasked to create a report menu for my users to select a report (there are about 20), select which filters that they want to apply to that report, then run based on what the user selected as the filters.

I have about 30 different filters to create, and based on which report the user selects, the filters that apply will need to be shown. I'm thinking the reports will be in an option group, and based on which report the users selects the filters that apply to that report will be displayed. From there the user can choose to apply a filter or not, and run the report.

I am trying to figure out the best way to tackle this. Should I try to create a table that contains the report name and type of filter to loop thru the controls to set visible, and build the SQL?

Forms :: How To Change Drop Down Box Options In Form Without Affecting Table

Jun 20, 2014

I'm a new user of Access and I'm required to input a survey into access. The data collected is being analyzed afterwards and therefore there cannot be any alpha content in the original table so I assigned multiple choice options numbers to correspond to the answers. In form view however I need the drop down boxes to spell out the answers, not just the numbers so the interviewer can read them out, I've seen this done on other similar surveys..I also tried going into form view and editing the drop down choices but that changes the table values.

Reports :: Create A Form Which Filters A Report Based Off Of Combo Boxes Selected By User

Jan 2, 2014

I'm trying to create a form which filters a report based off of combo boxes selected by the user. The code I'm using currently is:

Code:
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptProgramAttendees", acViewReport, , "ProgramIDFK = " & cboProgramTitle

This works great to return a report if the user selects something from the combo box. How do I adapt this so that the user can also leave the combo box blank and filter the report to return all records?Additionally, what if I want to have the user filter between dates selected on the form; i.e. between 'txtStart' and 'txtEnd'

Modules & VBA :: Filters Not Working For Multiple Users

Mar 9, 2014

I have created a module, where based on various selections (form), the output is thrown in the table for editing various fields. This works fine with single user. But once I have placed the same database on the share drive for multiple users, the users are unable see the data in the text filters. I don't know what is the issue all about. Also if i use me.requery, the text filters becomes blank. Below is the code :

Code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Public Function SelRec(shDate As Date, ATMID As String, City As String, Depots As String, Vendor As String) As Boolean
SelRec = False

[Code] .....

Forms :: Show All Records In Datasheet Subform On Form With Combo Box Filters On Load

Apr 1, 2015

I am having an issue trying to show all records when I load my form. It loads correctly when I don't have a record source for the main form. However, the combobox filters will not work. My goal is to have users be able to use the datasheet, subdatasheet and combobox filters. I can get the form to work just fine when I link the Main form and subform, but when the form opens it is filtered on the first record. I have been successful with this approach when using other forms, but they didn't require a subdatasheet.

Is there anyway I can have the comboboxes to filter yet be able to show all records until the user selects filters? Is this possible?I finally got my Manager to agree to use a database instead of Excel files based on this form setup and I need to make as "user friendly" as possible (look and function like a spreadsheet) I attached some pics of the form along with the code for the filter.

Forms :: No Filters - Cannot View All Records In Form View

Aug 27, 2013

I have 4 tables and around 440 records but can only view up to 417 in the form I have designed. I have been adding new records via form and it has been added to my main table, but when i try to view it in form view - the record is not available to view. What do I need to do to correct this problem?

I have checked that there are no filters, data entry is set to No, Auto deletions, additions and edits are set to yes.

Also to mention it seems that the problem has arisen since I set up some new queries, there is a one to one relationship between the tables!

Creating Recordset With Only One Entry Per User

Nov 25, 2005

hi

i am trying to write a query to produce a descending recordset of photo_id but only one from each user e.g

if these are the top records

photo_id 150 m_name dave
photo_id 149 m_name dave
photo_id 148 m_name dave
photo_id 147 m_name john
photo_id 146 m_name john
photo_id 145 m_name fred

i want the query to produce this

photo_id 150 m_name dave
photo_id 147 m_name john
photo_id 145 m_name fred

and so on, there are other fields also but that gives you the idea i hope.
what i have come up with is this

SELECT MAX(FORUM_ALBUM.Photo_id) AS ID, FORUM_ALBUM.Photo_Name,FORUM_ALBUM_USERS.M_Name,FO RUM_ALBUM.Member_id
FROM FORUM_ALBUM, FORUM_ALBUM_USERS
WHERE FORUM_ALBUM.Member_id=FORUM_ALBUM_USERS.MEMBER_ID AND FORUM_ALBUM.Photo_Status=1
GROUP BY FORUM_ALBUM.Photo_id,FORUM_ALBUM.Photo_Name, FORUM_ALBUM_USERS.M_Name, FORUM_ALBUM.Member_id
ORDER BY FORUM_ALBUM.Photo_id DESC;

this gives me the records i want in the correct order but it gives multiple instances of each M_Name instead of just one record for each M_Name

i hope i have explained this clearly enough

thanks

Dave

Forms :: Recordset As Datasource For A Form

Feb 22, 2015

I have an accdb file, holding all the tables on my server. Clients are linked to this one from their workstations. Speed is a constant issue mostly when more users are linked and I'm trying to find ways to make things faster.

Would it be possible to open a recordset when a form is loaded and set it as the form's data source? Would that make operation faster, at all?

The reason this idea came up is that it would be logical to use a small size recordset rather than large tables or queries that takes a while to load during starting form that use tables/queries with large number of records.

Forms :: Form Already In Use Or No Permissions When Multiple Users Are Accessing A Form

Aug 11, 2015

I have my application split, BE and FE. This is a form with a subform.For both I have the properties set to

Data Entry NO
Allow additions NO
Allow Deletions NO
Allow Edits NO

anyone person can open the form, but when a second person tries to open the same form we get the standard, locked by user or user does not have permission.If user 1 logs out then user 2 can get in. So it seems not a permission issue but some setting I have wrong. maybe at the query or table level?

How Do I Log Out On Users On A Multi-user System?

May 27, 2005

I run a multi-user system of over 200 users. The only facility I have for advising an office-wide logout is required is the email system. However, staff either don't read their email or forget so I have to run around like a headless chicken trying to get everyone to get out/stay out of the system while I perform maintenance etc. Is there a way to enforce a logout and keep users logged out until a requested time without spending a fortune on new software?
Any advice would save me a lot of hair pulling (not mine :)).

Single-user To Multi-users

Jan 7, 2004

Hi,

I have a database originally was created for 1 person to use. Now, this database has to be shared by various people in the company over a network. Some are only allowed to view reports while others are allowed to make changes to it. How can I convert this database to a multi-users one, and maintaining its data integrity? I can possibly restrict 1 person to use the database at any one time. I know it's not going to be easy, but with the help of you guys I am sure it can be done.

Referencing To Users Collection For A User Table Possible?

Jul 27, 2007

My search was snowballed with lot of results about dealing with split database, seeing who's online, etc. so I'm not sure if that is a good idea.

I want to make a table of Users because my users may need to put their name on some of reports, so I could use CurrentUser() to figure out who's who and put down their proper name after comparing the username via a query.

However, I'm not sure if it's possible for me to link the user table to the user groups of database to ensure that there's no ghosts or users that doesn't have a proper name to be placed on the reports or whatever. More of a validation, really.

Is that doable or maybe there's another way to do that?

Thanks!

Aug 13, 2014

i have a pop up form that users need to fill up whenever they need to Add New Records. everything is working fine. BUT, what should i do that in the next time the user will click the Add New Records it will not show the previous items that have been added? since it is added in the Main Form already, no need to show in the pop up Form again once they wanted to add new records. Once they are still in the pop up form, they can see the newly added items BUT once they exit the pop up form, they cant see those items anymore in that form instead it is in the Main Form already.

Modules & VBA :: Update Recordset Based On User Input Box

Oct 13, 2014

I have a form in my front end database that is supposed to allow a user to search for a record based on account number and then make changes to the that record and for it to save in the back end database. I have the search function working where it populates different input boxes on the form with what is stored in the back end database but I cannot get the update function to work. I have tried to assign each input box with a variable and then run an Update SQL function to update each of the fields but the updates are not storing. Any example of a successful update statement that uses VBA variables in it or a way to update a specific record via a recordset type function?

Forms :: Loop Through Continuous Form Recordset Crash

Jun 27, 2014

My application crashes when trying to change the value of a text box in a continuous form. Here is the code:

Code:
Private Sub cboPoCurrency_AfterUpdate()
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
Dim rst As Recordset

[Code].....

If I replace .txtUnitCost by MsgBox .txtUnitCost, it loops correctly through each record and returns the value. But if I try to change the value as shown in above code, MS Access crashes! (This is a desktop application with tables linked to SP lists - not a web app)

Forms :: Filtering A Form Based On ADODB Recordset?

Oct 16, 2013

I have a form that shows records from ADODB recordset.When I try to apply filter to the underlying recordset it works all right but the form doesn't reflect the changes. It shows same rows as before filtering. In debug I can see that the recordset contains only filtered records. Me.Refresh (Recalc, Requery) doesn't work.

Code is as follows:

Dim rs As New ADODB.Recordset
rs.Open sql, conn, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic
Set Me.Recordset = rs

Sub combo_AfterUpdate()
Me.Recordset.Filter = "CompanyNo = 123"
End Sub

The form is in Continuous forms mode. I cant use DAO because the data comes from SQL server user-defined function.

Data Affecting Another Table

Nov 14, 2006

Sorry for the elementary question...............

I have an Orders table and an Inventory table. Whenever I enter a new order and type in the Item # and Quantity ordered, I would like the Inventory amount in the other table to automatically be reduced by that amount. Possible?

EDIT: Okay, so I've figured out that this needs to be done in a query, but my expression isn't coming out right. I tried this:
QUANT: [Inventory]![QuantityOnHand]-[Orders]![Quantity], but it simply calculates the new inventory based on the original inventory number. In other words, if I have 100 on hand, every new order just subtracts itself from 100, and not from the result of the previous transactions.

Deploying DB To Users! (mde, Self Installation, Update User Version)

Feb 8, 2006

I have a db with more than 100 forms, reports - objects. My backend tables are linked sybase tables. What is the best way to hand this over to the users?

1. I want to create a mde version (which is not working, here's my problem :mad: Failure In Creating MDE File (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=94465)
2. I want a way to send this application to the user, in order that is installs on their desktop or a location i specify on the user's drive. I have no clue how to accomplish this, but i know that when i download some applications they do end up on my desktop :rolleyes: , so they must have done it somehow. Please help?
3. I want to have a master mdb hidden on the network somewhere, and when i make changes to that (e.g. my form or reports). And the next time the user goes into the version installed on their drive, it checks for the last version of the front end, and if that's not it, it erases the old one they have and installs my new version for them automatically. I know this can be done. Can you help me?

I'd really appreciate if anyone can help me please in any way. Advice, links, tutorial, whatever. Many blessings will come to you!


Ghudson! Before you attack me, i've done a search on the forum and though i've seen some posts, i can't seem to find one best for my means :) Thanks!

Forms :: Form Gets Error Message With Multiple Users

May 1, 2013

I have created a profiling form for my school. Each boy can access his form using his admission number ( Adno) which is the primary key. On the form are lots of sub forms - for things like favourite authors, clubs, teams played in etc - but these don't have a primary key ( as they are automatically linked to the Adno via the main form ). Unfortunately when several boys are filling in their own forms at the same time I keep getting error messages, one says that the data can't be updated and another says that there is a primary key problem.
