Forms :: Subforms / Drop-down Box And Synchronization
Aug 30, 2013
The subform, which is in datasheet view, contains two dropdown boxes, Country and District (1-n). I want the district dropdown to only display records based on what's selected in the country dropdown. There will only ever be any content in District if one country is selected (let's say country 'A').
I've used the code below (one of many attempts!) to try to achieve this, but it doesn't seem to have the effect I want. It seems that if I select country 'A' from the country dropdown, the District rowsource is as expected for that particular record. However, the rowsource for every other District in the list of records in the subform also now has the same rowsource even where the country <> A.Similarly, if I select <>A from Country, the rowsource fro every district is now empty, even if the country selected in another row is A.
I have created a form with sub-form and I would you tell me how I should do in order to screen data in sub-form transferred from main form. It looks like:
Hi I'm totally stuck creating a form because I don't know how to set up my combo boxes. The database is about tiles and the forms for data entry to create an invoice with one combo box to hold the tile range eg: White, blue, etc. I want the second combo box to hold the details on the tile names of the range chosen in the first combo box. eg: if 'white' is selcted in the tile range combo box, then only the names of the white tiles should appear to be selected from in the 'tile name' combo box.I then have a separate field to display the price of the tile depending on the range chosen. This is for some exam coursework and the guidelines specify that I'm not allowed to use VB or other code. Could someone please tell me how exactly I can sort this out so that the three are linked (2 combo boxes and the price field)?(queries?adjusting form properties?) All the details on tiles are stored in one table. Any guidance is greatly appreciated.Thank you so much. -Camryn
We are running Access 2002 on Win2k. The database has been split into front and back ends, and synchronization occurs directly over LAN with 7 replicas. During synchronization I received a failure message "The search key was not found in any record. (Error 3709)."
I have tried several things found on Microsoft KB and other forums-- Compact and repair, removing indexes from memo fields, updated Jet and Microsoft Data Access Components-- but nothing has worked. Does anyone have any ideas on this one? Thanks, James
I have an Access 2002 database (about 120mb) which was replicated using Replication Manager (version unknown). It is set up to use Internet Synchronization. We use it on state government LAN and WAN as well as the Internet. It works well in most cases, but on a few computers we get the error "Http address not found" when synchronization is attempted. The address is indeed visible to those computers. We have determined that reloading Windows (XP Pro) will usually solve the problem at least for a while but when GIS mapping software is installed it reappears. More worrisome is that some brand new laptops with factory-installed Windows are showing the same problem, which means it could get worse as we upgrade equipment.
Hello. i'm working with 10 replicas and a design master, but when i tried to add new tables and forms i get the message (Error 3492) " The synchronization failed because a design change could not be applied to one of the replicas" and after that, i cant synchronize anymore!!! i don't understand what could be the problem. thanks if anyone can help.
Trying to sync between a back end database and one of the replicas we use. Getting the error "The search key was not found in any record" Error 3709 while peroforming ISAM Seek.
Does anyone know how to find the offending record that is causing the problem? It's not related to an indexed memo field either. The only field that is indexed is the AutoNumber Primary Key field.
The only other option I see is to bring up both tables, manually input the differences, and create a new replica.
I have a main form with a subform. On my main form, I have a combo box set to "find a record on my subform, based on what I select in the combo box." This works great! At the same time, I want to use this main form combo box to synchronize with a combo box in the subform to display a value based upon the value selected in the main form's combo box. I have tried several things and searched Access newsgroups without success. I am using MS Access 2002, producing an Access 2000 database. Has anyone got any ideas? I could really use some help. Thank-You.
I have been using replication successfully for years. Recently the PC where my Design Master resided crashed taking the hard drive with it. No problems I thought, I used a replica to recover the design master and placed it on the new hard drive (the OS and Access was upgraded from 2000 to XP, however the Access 2000 file format was retained – there are still a couple of laptops with only W2000 software). I understand that moving the path of replicas or design masters is no no, so I proceeded to start from scratch and create a complete new batch of replicas based from the new design master.
Everything was going to plan UNTIL a replica was routinely synchronized with the design master. The design master reverted back to a replica. I recovered the design master again, everything looking fine until again a synchronization causes the design master revert to replica.
Next plan of attack to hopefully fix a potential corruption problem: create a new blank database, import all (non-system) tables, compact and repair, and create a new replica from scratch. From the design master, I created the complementing replicas and sure enough the Design Master again reverted to a Replica after a routine synchronization.
I repeated this “start from scratch” procedure, and the same results prevailed. I am at a loss especially since I verified that the hidden system MSysReplicas table had only two entries after the Design Master and Replica were first created.
I would greatly appreciate any ideas of where to go next with this problem.
I have recently created a database meant for managing inventory. I have started writing queries and building forms, and a lot of it is running smoothly, but I am having a few snags.
To give a brief background, I am currently designing a form in which a user will fill out when an incoming part comes into our company. The form NEEDS to ask the user for at least the PartNumber and the PONumber, but the way I have my relationships set up, I am not exactly sure how to design the forms (not the physical layout, but where the data goes). So when I have an incoming part, will I use the PartPOID to figure out which part number and PO number it is? I am not exactly sure how to make a form for the user that is not confusing.
Attached is a picture of my relationships and my database.
I have several Suppliers, each of whom holds several SalesEvents. At each SalesEvent I might buy none, one or more Bundles. Each Bundle then contains one or more Items. These relationships are all reflected in my Access 2013 desktop db as one-many relationships with cascaded updates.
My form structure for data entry reflects the Relationships, in that I have a Supplier form with a SalesEvents subform. On that subform I can enter data about each of that Supplier's SalesEvents, and each SalesEvent row has a button to call up a SalesEvent form which has a Bundles subform. Then each row of that subform has a button which calls up a Bundle form containing an Items subform. That Bundle form identifies the Supplier, Sales Event and Bundle number, and within its Items subform I can then enter the data for each Item.
Problem : All used to work fine, but I've clearly changed something because now when I select the Items button on the Items subform in the Bundle form, the system gives me the data for the first record in the SalesEvents table, rather than the one selected. I have checked the raw data and that's as it should be. I have tried to undo all the steps I took since it last worked properly, but to no avail. Restoring the last backup (taken when I'm sure it worked properly) still has the problem.how do I find what data is actually being passed between forms and subforms ?
I have an unbound form on that form I want to put three sub forms one on a products table the other on a course start dates table and the link table that joins the other two together. all three are related to each other with Pk/FK links.
When I try to link them it says you cannot link items on an unbound form.
I have a main form with multiple subforms in tab view, right now the forms only open in edit mode, I would like all forms to open to new record mode. I know I can set the main form with the switchboard manager but what about the subforms?
I am attempting to create a database for my users to input new data via a main form. I have this main form where I use subforms as look up tables/queries to pull my stored data from. My problem is that I want to try and not have the subform on the main form; I want it to be its own window. Bear in mind I am new to using Microsoft access, and trying to learn as I go.
I have created all the forms with queries. I use the open form command to get me to my subform, which is a common findings form. From there I am able to search and filter, and once I find my desired record I want to be able to link certain fields back to the main form. (basically if possible use a command button to select this information and insert it on the main form). Typically, my users will have a generic finding to to record so I have inputted these findings so that they can select them and not have to type them themselves. Is this even possible for me to do this way, with a command button by writing a VBA code and linking criteria? The reason I am creating a separate form is so that the main form is not cluttered and is user friendly.
The fields I want to link are the same, however they are not from the same queries, and essentially the main form has its own since as of right now there is not data because it’s run of user input. The findings form has data. There are relationships established.
Thanks for any help, I feel like this might be confusing since I am unsure of exactly what I am trying to do, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
Okay. I am trying to build a form where I could get information like this but also editable. It can be either bound or unbound with enough information to update the records. I could do this several other ways but would prefer it just like it is below. Any ideas is greatly appreciated. Sam.
I have a complex form (in that it contains a lot of VB code and events) to display the information of various articles in my database. I would like to add some browsing options to the form (like a list of all articles on the left, and some different back/forward options), but I also need to preserve the form in its current state. Rather than make a new copy of the form (and have to maintain TWO near-identical copies of the same form), I attempted to make a new form, with just the browsing list, and insert the old article information form as a subform on the left. However, it seems that any of the code from the original form which refers to Forms!Article Information!Article_ID ("Article Information" is the name of the original form) are not able to load the correct information, as I am prompted to supply it myself. Needless to say, I don't want the user to be prompted for the article number each time they open the form :).
I'm wondering how I would go about opening the old form as a subform in such a way that I am not prompted each time. Or alternativley, if there's a better way to do what I'm trying to do, how should I do it?
I have search the forum and have found many solutions to this same problem but so far none have worked for me. I am fairly new to Access so maybe I am just not understanding properly.
I have a form with a main form and many subforms. All subforms but one are continuous and the other is a single form that does not allow additions.
1. I can tab from the main form to the first subform but can’t get the next subform. I have tried this on the exit of the first combo box in the subform
Private Sub EventInitialActionTaken_Exit(Cancel As Integer) If IsNull(Me.EventInitialActionTaken) Then Me.Parent.[frmeventFsubform].SetFocus End If End Sub
This works until I open a new record from one of the subforms and then I get an error.
2.Then, my last subform is the single form with no additions and I want it to tab to a command button on the main form. Right now it just goes in circles throughout the sub form
3.Also, if I ask to start a new record while my cursor is in one of the subforms, the new record will open with my cursor in that subform field. How do I get it to default to the first field in the main form? I tried Me.EventID.Setfocus on the On Load Event of the main form but this didn’t work.
I think that if I get the answer to question 3 then the code I previously used in question 1 might work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
I have 3 tables: tblFunctionalArea FAID, FAName, Active(y/n) tblSubFunctionalArea SubFAID, SubFAname, Active(y/n) tblLinkFAwithSubFA FAID, SubFAID
What I need is all possible Functional Areas listed on a form where you can click on active checkbox to activate that Functional Area. Then on the next form I need Sub-functional Areas listed, but only those that tie back to Functional Areas that have been activated. Is this at all possible to achieve? I really don’t know how to go about doing this. Do I need a form, or may be I need a subform? I'm at a loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
The subform is based on a query. The two are linked on the 'week' value.
Now, this is what I want to do:
The user must not be able to edit data in the subform (so should I use a report instead... but then will I be able to do 2...). Selecting a row in the subform should cause the whole form to go to that record so that the user can then modify info in the fields of the main form.
I don't know VB - the only code I've used is gleened from searching these forums (a great resource, so I'm learning slowly), so I'll need a bit more than 'Do a wrzmitchigob on the bleedlethrop'!
Please Help I have a form that has pages of subforms in it. i have a number of fields in various subforms. i need the user to be able to filter the form by any or all of the fields? how should i go about doing this?? I"m a newb at this so please talk slow
I need a form with 2 subforms. the main form is for an indidual. the first subform is a list of characteristics. the second subform is sort of a calendar function, produced for date scheduled, results, next meeting date.
I have tried the form wizard, but it produces a jumble of the mixed fields. Can I create a subform or 2 before I create the main form, and then link them somehow?
I'm using access 2007 and I have a form with six subforms on it. When the form is completely load the subforms DO NOT have scrolls bars (for up and down) on the right side even though the data (rows) far exeeds the number of rows displayed. I have checked all the properties and all appear to be set up correctly. If I refresh a subform with VB on load of the main form the subforms scroll bar will show. The problem with doing this for all six subforms is the amount of time it is taking. Is there something I might have overlooked, is this a bug with Access?
I want to create a form with two subforms. I create a form with one subform without problems but i would like to know how i can link the two subforms, so when i select a row in first subform display records in second subform.
is it possible to have 3 subforms in a form?if so how would i go about this i have created the form and the 3 subforms however it only allows me to link one into the form.
