Forms :: Use Formula In Caption Property For Page In Tab Control (Access 2007)
Oct 7, 2013Is it possible to use a formula in the Caption property of a page in a tab control (i.e. to make it dynamic)
I have a number of tabs each with their own subform (with each subform driven by its own unique query)
I'd like the tab name to include the number of records returned by that query (so as records are added, the tab name is automatically updated with the new number)
So something along the lines of :
Page 1 (" & DCount("[ID]","[qryQuery1]") & ")"
Such that the page name appears as :
Page 1 (7)
I know I can code this programmatically but then that code has to be triggered by some event and I need the counts to be as real-time as feasibly possible rather than requiring the user to click on a control to trigger it. I was hoping by using a formula directly in the Caption property of the page, it would be dynamically updated every time a new record was added without the need to trigger an event first.
Forms :: How To Set Focus On Specific Text Box
Nov 11, 2013I have a continuous form with a combobox and a text box. In the after_update event of the combobox I want to setfocus on the text box - of the specific record that I'm on. I tried using Me.CurrentRecord but that returns me to a completely different record than the one I was on. How can I setfocus to the text box of the record I am on?
View 12 Replies View RelatedAccess Can't Move Focus To Control
Jun 24, 2005I have a tab control on my form. In the change event of the tab control I am trying to tell it to move to the first field on each page of the tab control whenever the page no. changes:
Private Sub TabScreenAssess_Change()
'when a new page gets the focus, set the focus to the first control on that page
Dim PageNo As Integer
PageNo = Me!TabScreenAssess.Value
Select Case PageNo
Case "0": gynFemale.SetFocus
Case "1": tbPriorHx.SetFocus
Case "2": suSubUseAssess.SetFocus
Case "3": mhaCognitiveFunct.SetFocus
End Select
End Sub
This works when I am tabbing normally through the controls. But when I click back to the first tab, it says "Access can't move the focus to the control gynFemale" (gynFemale is the first control on the first tab.) It works for the other tabs. That is when I click on another tab, the focus goes to the first field on that tab. When I enter a value in the gynFemale field (it is a combobox, with options Yes or No), sometimes it appears to save the value, then I discover that it has been saved as record #0.
Any help with these problems is appreciated.

View 3 Replies View RelatedForms :: Data Entry Form - Set Focus On Tab Control
Sep 10, 2014On my data entry form I have a tab control with three pages
At the bottom of the first page I have a sub form with 3 fields
Currently, when tabbing, the focus runs through the fields as per the tab order
BUT
Once it gets to the subform (datasheet view) it jumps into the first field of the first record rather than the first 'empty cell' thereby starting a new record in the datasheet.
Once the three fields in the datasheet are completed the focus tabs back to the top of the first page of the form rather than onto the next page of the form
How to correctly reference controls using VBA so I could SetFocus where I want?
The Main form is called frm_Admissions
It has three pages called Patient, Treatment & Service Providers
Patient has a subform called sub_Cluster (which may or may not hold Cluster Information)
I would like the tab order to jump from the last textbox on the form into the first field of a new record in the datasheet (rather than the first field of any existing records)
Once it has finished in the datasheet I need to tab to the first field/textbox in the Treatment's page of the form rather than back to the first field/textbox in the Patient's page.
Forms :: Wrong Focus When Switching Among Pages Of TAB Control
May 3, 2013I have a form with a TAB control and four pages. Each control of each page has his TAB index set correctly (starting from 0 to n), some of controls are not enabled to be tabbed. The form's cycle is set on "Current page".
I have two kind of problems.
First: I am on the last control of the page, pressing TAB key the focus gets invisible. Press TAB key again and the focus moves on the first page's control. For each page happens this behaviour.
Second: clicking randomly on the TAB pages the focus is not always on the control with TAB index 0, but usually on the last.
I have read that clicking on a new page the focus should be automatically on the first control, but this does not happen in my experience.

View 13 Replies View RelatedDetermine Which Page Has Focus.
Feb 2, 2006Hi,
I have a form with 8 pages (tabs) on it. Each page has a Quit button which populates both a Form name variable and a Question name variable. When a user clicks the quit button the code forces the page name associated with the quit button. I would like to try and catch the same information if someone clicks the DB Close button(s) at the top of the screen. How can I programatically determine what page was/is open when the close db button was clicked? I guess I could create a switch that is populated when a page has focus and then call the last switch value. But I think that seems like extra programming, if I can just call the current page name/index. Is there something like the form name?
E.G.:
MyForm = Me.Form.Name
maybe an active page index or something? The problem is I won't know what page is opened at the time a close button is clicked unless I use a switch of some sort.
Thanks.

Forms :: Form Control With Iif Statement To Show Specific Records?
Jul 13, 2015I have a form based on a query in datasheet view. What i would like is to show only those records that fulfill the truepart of iif statment, and do not show the ones that fulfill the false part.
I have the following fileds in the query
month
currency 1 checkbox
currency 2 checkbox
sum
In the form, the control named month contains the following code:
control source: =IIf([checkbox1]=no;[month];0)
So this gives the appropriate months, but also shows the all other records with a 0 in the month field. I would like to get only the records shown that are correct with the truepart of the statement.

Disable A Control While It Has The Focus
Jul 21, 2006I understand that I cannot change control.enabled to false while the control has focus.
Does this mean that if I were to make a form with only one control that can have focus then I cannot disable said control?
I'm used to plain old VB6 and am unfamiliar with this restriction :mad:
