I have a main form populated by Dlookups.When I click on a textbox I open another form which is used to change data in my main table. Once this is closed the main form is still displayed but the amended data isnt reflected in this form. How do i get the data to change, I have tried requerying the form and the query that is used for the dlookups but I cant get it to work.
Within my main form I have a combo box called "workgroup." Also in the main form is a subform called "sfrmSubmissionRecords," and within this subform is a combo box called "covermemo."
Each cover memo is assigned to a specific workgroup, so my intention is for each time a new workgroup is selected from the dropdown, the covermemo combo box in the subform becomes populated only with the covermemos associated with that workgroup. I'm almost finished except for the final step when I try to make the values regenerate...Access says that can't find the referenced form "sfrmSubmissionRecords"
This is the code that I'm using:
Private Sub cmbWorkgroup_AfterUpdate() Forms![sfrmSubmissionRecords]![cmbCovermemo].Requery End Sub
Access database 2007: I have a database with some forms init but when i type my username and password to open the main menu to insert data the form shows 1 second and closes the whole database. I don't know whether the problem is the VB code or the microsoft.
I am having trouble requerying a combo box.I have created a Drawing Register database which allows users to create a new job as well as set up a drawing register for that job if the use checks a box in the job set-up form which indicates that particular job will have a register.Using the Job-Set up form I created a query which brings pulls the job number, job name and register check box and filtered it to show only those jobs that the box is checked. To this query I also added the relevant fields from the drawing register table. The Job Set Up table is linked to the Drawing Register table by the Contract No. field. Unfortunately I cannot set this field in the Job Set Up table.
Using this query I created a Drawing Register form with the sub-form Drawing Register Details. I added a combo box which shows the lists of all the drawings and allows me to view a specific drawing when selected. The problem I am getting is that the list is showing ALL drawings for EVERY job with a register and not just those drawings for the job I am currently updating. I tried using the following code with no luck
Private Sub Form_Load() Forms![DwgRegFRM].Form![Combo15].Requery End Sub
Private Sub Combo15_GotFocus() [Combo15].Requery End Sub
I want that when I choose to open the register for a particular job the combo box only lists the drawings for that particular job.
I have a form with a subform that contains a combobox where I choose companies to add to a project that is on the main form. If the user types in a company name that is not in the database, I run code on the NotInList event that passes the company name using openargs to a company entry form.
After this form is closed, I return to the subform to choose the company name that I just added, only it is not there because I can't figure out where to automatically requery this combobox. My duct tape solution that's working, is a command button that runs this code when clicked:
I have tried putting this code in the OnCurrent, OnFocus, Onclick, OnEnter....etc on the subform and on the combobox itself. So far the only way it requeries is if I use the command button.if you want to see the NotInList code, and the code on my company entry form.
I am stumped as to how to get a form to update/refresh. Heres what I have! My main form:[Daily Log From] is opened, with a subform:[DailyDSQry subform] populated by a Query. This form has a command button that opens another form: [NewDSLog] in "acAdd","acDialog". What I need is: when the [NewDSLog] form closes, the [DailyDSQry Subform] needs to requery/update so that it displays the new entry.
I have tried the following in a command "CLOSE" button in form [NewDSLog]: docmd.Runcommand AcCmdRecordSave Me!Forms![Daily Log]![DailyDSQry subform].Refesh Me!Forms![DailyDSQry subform].[Query].!Requery doCmd.close
but no LUCK.....Keep getting errors Any Ideas Thanks all, I do appreciate the help Enviva
I have a form with a tabbed control on it. The tabbed control has 4 tabs that each have a report on them. When I select a company name on the main form, I requery these 4 reports to show data related to that company.
For some strange reason, 2 of my reports requery with no problem, and 2 of them give me a message that the report can't be found. Here is the code:
Code: Private Sub cboCompanyName_AfterUpdate() On Error GoTo cboCompanyName_AfterUpdate_Err ' DoCmd.SearchForRecord , "", acFirst, "[CompanyID] = " & str(Nz(Screen.ActiveControl, 0))
' After selecting a company, requery the subreports to display the appropriate data
As a side note, if I chose the company, say "ok" to the error, and then go run the queries that these reports are based on, I get the correct records. Also, if I chose the company and run the 2 failing reports standalone, they work fine, so I know the problem isn't the reports or the queries themselves.
I have also checked and rechecked for any spelling mistakes and have found none. I should mention that the error message is "Programs cannot find the field 'SubrptCompany_Payback' referred to in your expression".
I created a form with an "exit" button and a "return to main menu" button on the form. but when I am on the last data and press tab the form closes automatically. what could be the reason. Do I have to put some condition on the macro I have created for the two buttons listed above. I have just put "action" without any conditions on both the two buttons.
I have a form that records when a user edits a record. This change is only recorded when the user clicks the "update record/save" command button. What I need help with is capturing the changes made when a user edits the record in any field and doesn't click the save button upon closing the form. If the user doesn't edit any fields in the record, a new instance of this edit will not be saved to my edited records table and the form just closes
Need some help on a command which would close any on screen active form. I want to have this Esc key enabled as an autokey to close any screen active form. I know how this autokey thing works but unable to figure out proper code.
I have a pop up form that requires me to fill out all 4 fields of the form. When I don't, I get a prompt telling me which field(s) I've forgotton to fill in and allows me the option to Cancel (Yes or No) and if i decide yes it wont save and will close the form. BUT when I say No (Don't cancel), it still closes out the form and I obviously don't want that. I don't know if it might have to do with my macro button either? Any clue?
Thanks in Advance!
MY CODE:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) Dim blnError As Boolean Dim strError As String
strError = "You are missing data for "
If IsNull(Me.[Account Number]) Or Me.[Account Number] = "" Then blnError = True strError = strError & "Account Number," End If
If IsNull(Me.Contact) Or Me.Contact = "" Then blnError = True strError = strError & " Contact," End If
If IsNull(Me.Department) Or Me.Department = "" Then blnError = True strError = strError & " Department," End If
If IsNull(Me.Address) Or Me.Address = "" Then blnError = True strError = strError & " Address," End If
If blnError Then strError = Left(strError, Len(strError) - 1) If MsgBox(strError & vbCrLf & "Are you sure you want to cancel." & vbCrLf & "If you do, the info will not be added.", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Close Confirmation") = vbNo Then Cancel = True End If End If End Sub
I have a combo box that contains a list of values, but users can add their own if they choose. If the value they type in isn't on the list, the Not In List event fires. Once the procedure is done, the form inexplicably closes.
Oddly enough, it only closes under certain circumstances - the code provides several different options for saving the new data, and if I choose different options, the form works as its designed.
Further, if I insert a breakpoint anywhere in the code, then hit F5 to let the code run, the form works fine. Literally, the breakpoint can be anywhere in the procedure from the first line (On Err...) to the last line in the Exit block, "Exit Sub".
Greetings. I have a database that displays forecasts of our faculty needs. I now have 2 tables, Managers and classes. The Managers are bound to the form, the Classes to the subform. The subform changes every time I choose a new manager, as planned. But the Subform keeps requerying itsself, and I can't enter/modify data as a result.
I have a query based on a table which gives a breakdown of sales by month, sale type and by cost centre (department).
I also have another query which summarises the sales by sale type and cost centre so that and is based on the first query.
the second query is a subform of the first. I tried the second query as an update query but couldn't figure out how to execute it in order to refresh the subform. I've also tried to requery the second query having recreated it as a select query but I'm not able to refresh the data.
The aim is to refresh the data in the subform as any of the underlying data is changed in the original form.
I'm ok with VBA and with macros so if anyone has any advise or ideas I'd appreciate it.
OK ive got my 2 vaguely working combos which select the surgery, and the staff.
On the same form I want a couple of tickboxes which show for example, whether a person attended the course, if they had to pay etc (all yes/no answers).
How do I get the tickbox to update? i have tried to requery it but nothing happens, it just stays as what the last thing done to it was.
I have a list box (List25) that is generated from a query (qryThisBox). One of the fields in that query uses the criteria [Forms]![MyForm]![SelectedField] to filter.I also have combo boxes in the form that List25 displays in. Unfortunately, I want to requery the list box in the form, using a combo box that calls the same underlying table field, SelectedField.
How can I do this? Can I somehow dynamically change the criteria in qryThisBox to change when it gets requeried?How do I stack combo box requeries, eg: Combo Box 1 gets selected - does a requery
and/or
Combo Box 2 gets selected - and filters the results of the requery for Combo Box 1.
I run several databases daily - after running two of them (at different times), the database itself closes but the Access program stays open. In order to close that program, I have to close it out using the Task Manager.
Any suggested solutions? Thanks (as always) for your assistance.
What would cause Access to suddenly close without warning while busy with a query?
No error messages, nothing! The query is a fairly big one that normally takes about 6 minutes to run, but has had no problem with it for a number of years. A new drive used for back-up purposes was recently fitted to my PC which now has 3 internal hard drives.
Could this problem be caused by a bad memory handling configuration? The original setup that worked before may have been changed when the new drive was installed. The XP Page File size for example may have been changed.
I created an MDE file for my application it's a split db when I hit the exit command button on the MDB version it quits the application correctly but when I do the same thing on the MDE version, it leaves the database window open on the taskbar.
I have an access2000 db. Many tables, forms, reps ect... at random times it will just close. Don't know why. No errors, no reason why. It just closes. Is this common and is there any fix?
I've searched for ages looking for threads on backing up a database, and even found one which was asking exactly what I need but without solutions given.
I have a split database with BE and FE, which is used by about 20 users. When the last user closes the database I would like the database to be automatically backed up (e.g. when no one is using it). I've found threads on scheduling a backup, it the middle of the night for example, and other threads on backing up while users are logged on, but I'm not really keen to use these approaches.
I was trying to access this particular MS-ACCESS file which serves as a DB for a software. But the file opens and closes in a split of a second and was impossible to view its structure. :mad: I beleive it's made to respond so by the programmers in order to hide the content. Can anyone please help me open this file? PLEASE...
I have a database that has been functioning very well for nearly a year. Suddenly today, as I attempt to open a report (very complex report takes about 2 minutes to render), the database closes before displaying the report. I have moved the db from the server to my desktop and the same problem happens. It does not matter if I try to execute the report from the switchboard or from the Report Object List.
DB is 344,940KB. I have larger db's that work fine.
I don't know where to look for a way to stop this from happening. Nothing was done to the form design between the last time it worked properly, and today.
