I have a form "Clientfrm" with a field, "ClientID".
I have another form, "HomePage", with an unbound combobox with rowsource "ClientID" from Clientfrm. Along with that, I have an Open Form button that pops up "Clientfrm" to display existing data if an existing ClientID is typed.
SITUATION: A nonexistant ClientID is typed into "HomePage", a blank "Clientfrm" pops up with the field "ClientID" blank on the Clientfrm. Once filled out and closed, I am back to the "Homepage" to enter another "ClientID". However, the combobox does not display the new "ClientID" until the "Homepage" is closed and reopened. How do I fix this?
I tried the Me.ClientID.Requery on the On change event of the combobox of the "Homepage", but that is not working. What should I do? SHould I instead put that code in on change event in the "ClientID" field in the "Clientfrm?"
I have a mainform, with a popupform, on which I want to select a record/post to work with on the mainform. I have managed to select the actual post on the popup, but i dont know how to make the mainform navigate to that form.
How do I easiest accomplish to make the mainform navigate to the record I've selected on the popupform?
I have a main form that identifies a Client File: frmClientFile (Single Form)
On the main form is a subform for Cases: subfrmCases (Continuous form)
Also on the main form below the Cases subform is a tab control that contains additional subforms to view/update different aspects of a case: subfrmCaseClients (Continuous Form).
The way this operates is that the user first chooses a file using a combobox on frmClientFile.
The subfrmCases is linked to the main form (using the caseFileID) and filters correctly.
The subfrmCaseClients is then linked using some hidden text fields on the main form (using caseFileID, CaseID) and this filters correctly.
On subfrmCaseClients is a combobox (cboClientID) that I need to requery based upon the Case Row selected on subfrmCases.
I have tried numerous combinations of options to force the requery by trying to apply a macro on the following:
OnCurrent, OnSelectionChange, OnChange and AfterUpdate events to no avail.
If I hit F5 to refresh the entire page the combo box gets updated as expected.
How do I get the Requery to work programatically? Is this even possible?
I set up several combo boxes to display Tables from msysobjects. The record source is using a WHERE clause to display certain tables both Linked and Local. Occasionally, when clicking the dropdown arrow, the box only displays local tables. This situation seems not to matter whether tables have been newly linked or unlinked. despite having both a me.requery and a me.refresh in the code and/or even clicking the Refresh All button on the ribbon menu, the form does not seem to update the combo box to display both linked and local tables.
In further testing, it seems that it is not a form issue because I took the SQL statement I used as the record source and created a new query with the sql string. The query behaved the same as the combo box, only listing out local tables.
My current work around is to close the database and reopen, then all is well. Hopefully there is another way to get the linked tables listed without this drastic step.
Don't think it's necessary, but here is the sql statement. Type 6 is linked.
Code: SELECT msysobjects.name FROM msysobjects WHERE msysobjects.[flags] = 0 AND msysobjects.[type] in (1, 6) AND Right([name],7)<>'_SOURCE' AND Right([name],4)<>'_OUT' AND msysobjects.name not in ('tblImport','tblImportFormats','tblUniversal') OR msysobjects.database=gblprojectname() ORDER BY msysobjects.name, Right([name],7);
I have a split form that was not made by wizard. On the form part I have a combobox that is unbound to the form data set. The combobox has a query row source that is based on the current row selected. I want the combobox to have an up-to-date result based on which row is selected.
If I set the combobox to requery in the form_current event then I get what I want. I don't want to put up with the little delay that is generated every time a user changes rows because of the requery, though. I only want the requery to happen when they use the drop-down menu.
I have the requery in the gotfocus event of the combobox on the form. I mostly get what I want this way, however if they select an item in the drop-down list, then choose a new record in the datasheet, then try to use the combobox again, the combobox is not refreshed (because it never lost focus?).
To get around this, I've tried to setfocus to something on the form in the on_current event, but access gives me an error: 'Access can't move focus to the control btn_Refresh'.How can I get the combo to requery only when users are about to use it?
Currently have a Form / SubForm arrangement combining qryItemAllowedAndUnschedlued with tblInventoryItem.
The main form is based on the query and the subform on the table.
My effort is to create cascading combo boxes where a selection in the main form populates a "conditional" list in the subform.
More specifically, where the user selects ItemClass in the main form, I am attempting to populate a list of ItemCategories in the subform based on the selected ItemClass.
I have reviewed and continue to study existing posts on Cascading Combo Boxes and Form / Subform arrangements. However I currently have a question I do not see covered...
When I select my ItemClass it is populating throughout the query and not solely in the current record displayed.
Does anyone know why this may be?
I fear the answer is a simple setting that my current experience is making difficult to isolate. I trust it will present itself with patience, but in the interim more experienced feedback is welcome!
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.
I have a form with subforms, where the main form's source is a table called tblCharts. Within this table there is a field called ID that is autonumbered.
So I created a combo box that's row source is a query that selects the ID field from table charts and two other descriptive fields to make navigation easier. Limit List is set to yes.
The problem comes up with code that I've used multiple times, but not with an autonumber. The code typicallly looks like this when I'm searching on a text field.
Code: Sub cboPatientSelection_AfterUpdate () Dim rs As DAO.Recordset If Not IsNull(Me.cboPatientSelection) Then If Me.Dirty Then Me.Dirty = False
[Code] ....
This worked at first but then 3070 runtime error came up, the form started messing up. So I made this code
Code: Sub cboPatientSelection_AfterUpdate () Dim rs As DAO.Recordset If Not IsNull(Me.cboPatientSelection) Then If Me.Dirty Then Me.Dirty = False
[code].....
This code worked at first, so I decided to make a copy of my form called Copy Of frmCharts. After this the code stopped working on the initial frmCharts but now works on the copy.
I also received other errors besides 2070. I know what error 3070 is but I can't figure out why it's not working on this form. I closed and opened the form a few times and it happened to start working. Very frustrating when I'm trying to make the system reliable for others to use
The code only seems to do this when I enter design view then switch back to form view.
Hi, I have a form with an unbound control on it. The record source of the control is a DLookup function, which works fine. When updating the table (on which the DLookup Function is based) through different form, my unbound control on the other form that uses the DLookup Function does not refresh.
I have tried requerying the control on the Form's Got Focus, On Activate, and On Current events, with no success. I can get it to requery using OnClick event of the control itself, or the Detail or Header Section of the Form, but I don't want the user to have to click anything for the most recent data to show.
I want a command button to "Requery" a combobox. the combobox uses a query to determine the records listed (it lists incomplete records). after completing the record, i'd like to hit a command button that will "requery" the combobox so that the recently completed record is no longer listed.
I have a form frm_GlobalSettings with a combobox cmbDescription that finds a record based on the value selected. The row source type for cmbDescription is Table/query, and the row source is a select statement on the form's underlying table.
I want the user to be able to use cmbDescription to add a new record to the form's underlying table. I currently have
Code:
Private Sub cmbDescription_NotInList(NewData As String, Response As Integer) Dim strTmp As String 'Get confirmation that this is not just a spelling error. 10 On Error GoTo cmbDescription_NotInList_Error 20 strTmp = "Add '" & NewData & "' as a new global setting?"
[code]....
but when a new value is entered this errors on line 70 with "runtime errror 2118 - you must save the current field before you run the requery action".I've tried various ways around this but can't get it to work.
I have been using AYS2000 database example from Rogers access library. I have been in the process of modifying to meet my needs. Although I have run into a problem that was prevalent in the original database example. I have attached the original database for your reference.
Problem: At the bottom of the database beside the "New Response" button there are 2 combo boxes that allow you to select the survey and response in which you want to view in the subform. Although when selecting the response the subform does not always update the record in the subform. It would appear that the problem occurs only after a response has been previously selected. I have tried adding additional code to refresh and requery the subform already without any success.
When designing a table I've created a field and set its lookup properties to display a combobox with a row source that returns a DISTINCT set of values already entered into the field.
After a row insert or row update the combobox needs to be required to ensure its list is complete.
If I create a form to display my datasheet this is easy. But I'd prefer to enter data directly into the table datasheet directly. I need to enter simple data into about 20 different tables and I'd prefer not to create 20 forms unless it's really necessary.
The lookup wizard generated entries similar to those I'd previously created manually, except the wizard generated a couple of extra settings that appeared briefly that were not part of the regular set of lookup tab properties. These additional settings referred to 'update propagation'. Once they'd disappeared I couldn't see any way to get them back..
This is a stupid problem, but I just can't seem to figure it out (some days I am smarter than others).
I have a form with three unbound comboboxs that are synchornized so that what you select in the first combobox changes your options in the 2nd and 3rd boxs. My problem is that I want to record the selections made in the unbound comboboxes in the table attached to the form, but cannot seem to make it work. Help!! :confused:
I would like to have a form with a combo box open and then when a company is clicked on i would like for my report to open showng all those listings. I have the query and the report and the form but how do i get them to all work together they are not playing nice.
I'm using a very simple unbound textbox on a very simple form, with the following Expression to find me data in a query and sum the last 30 days, based on a combo-box on my form...
Only thing is, it's showing me only the data from the last 30 days...regardless of the value in the combo.
=DSum("Credit","qryIncVsExp","TransDate>=#" & Date()-30 & "#" And "AccountID_FK="""&[cboaccount].[column](1)&"")
I'm sure it's something to do with the number of "'s I have, but I'm probably more than likely ever so wrong.
My Database is really simple, it contains 1 table (called Querys) and a form called Dashboard.
In my main form (Dashboard) I have inserted a sub form which shows all the records in my table (called Querys) when I use my main form and add a record this sub table can then be refreshed and it shows all my records.
This part is fine,What I would like to do is be able to select a record in my sub form and it show the record data in my main form. This would really speed up the navigation process as the database gets bigger.
I have a form which shows training events - these can take place over one or several days, and can be run by one trainer or several, so I have my basic Events Info in one table (EventID, EventType, Location, that kind of thing) and the 'Jobs' in a separate table (EventID, JobDate, TrainerID, etc)
The problem I'm having is that I want the List of Events to be sorted in order of their start date... which is on the subform, not the main form.
How can I go about it - and still leave both the main and subforms fully editable?
I have a Mainform [FrmReconcileMain] and it contains a Subform [FrmReconcilesub]
What I'm trying to is, on the Main form type in a statement date in textbox [TxtStatementDate].
I have a checkbox on my subform [ReconciledYN], along with a textbox [TxtReconcileDateSub]. when I click the checkbox, it simply pulls the date from the mainform and populates the date in the subform.
I've even tried experimenting on a simple form (with no subform) to see whats going on, but still I can't get it to work, even on a simple event such as this...
If [yourcheckboxname] = -1 Then [controlnametoupdate] = date() Else [controlnametoupdate] = ""
I am trying to use a combobox called Manufacturer to select which table the combobox called Model gets it's rowsource from using the code below.
Code:
Private Sub Manufacturer_AfterUpdate() If (Me.Manufacturer.Value = "Siemens") Then Me.Model.RowSourceType = "Table/Query" Me.Model.Recordset = "SeimensTable" Me.Model.RowSource = "SELECT Model FROM SeimensTable" Else If (Me.Manufacturer.Value = "Samsung") Then Me.Model.RowSourceType = "Table/Query" Me.Model.Recordset = "SamsungTable" Me.Model.RowSource = "SELECT Model FROM SamsungTable" End If End If End Sub
But when I run the form and select Manufacturer. Combobox Model remains empty. tell me what I'm doing wrong?
I am running in to a brick wall with this. I have an unbound text box with the control source set to =IIF([text42]=0,0,[text42]/[text44])*100 and in continues to return a #name? error.
I am not sure how to get this expression to work. I have even tried to put =[text42]/[text44] and I still get the #name? error.
I have been reading a earlier post regarding requerying forms
Forms are displayed on other form by means of a SubFormControl. It is the name of the SubFormControl that is needed. This is often the same as the SubForm but it is *not* a requirement. In your case you will be using two SubFormControl names, one nested within the other. Just for the record, you Requery forms and not fields.
How do you find out the name of the SubFormControl. I am trying to refresh sub forms and I am trying to use the following code.
Private Sub Form_AfterUpdate() Forms!MainFormName!SubFormControl.Form!SubSubFormC ontrol.Requery End Sub
I have 2 forms, "frmMainClient" and a subform "frmjob" and I have a command button on the "frmJob" which brings up a pop up form " frmJobNew". I fill out the fields and save via a command button.
When I look at the "frmJob" the new record I have entered is not there. It is there if I close all the forms and then open them again.
I know I need to requery the forms but I am not too sure how this is done.
i have a form with cascading combo boxes, all of which are set to requery the combo boxes below, however i have one which is Service SubType, and it should requery Provider and Subjective, however it only clears the Provider and the previously selected subjective is still there, when you click on the downarrow it does give you the new list of subjectives.
my code looks like this: Private Sub cmbServiceSubType_AfterUpdate() Me.cmbProvider.Requery Me.cmbSubjective.Requery End Sub
how to get it to clear the boxes I have asked it to requery.
I need to requery a subform from a third form and can't seem to get it to work.
frmForm1 has frmAddress as a subform. The button cmdReviseAddress opens the form frmUpdateAddress where all of my validation work is done and the new record is added.
However, the new address is not being displayed in the subform.
If I use the command Forms![frmTest]![frmAddress].Requery it works fine.
The problem is that I want to be able to frmAddress on any form, and need to pass the name of the main form (in this case frmForm1) as a variable.
If lsTemp = "frmForm1", the statement Forms![lsTemp]![frmAddress].Requery (and every variation using brackets and quotes that I can think of) fails.
