Is there a way to show the toggle buttons in an option group as NOT selected when the form first loads up? I've cleared all the default value properties in the table and the form but it always loads as showing one of the buttons pressed/selected. I want the form to load and both buttons in the group look the same.
View RepliesI am making a specialty form where it must toggle on or off when the user clicks on a boxed area. Since toggle backgrounds cannot be set to transparent, I need to do it some other way. I thought of either using a button to control a hidden checkbox, or just writing code altogether. The problem is that I don't know what code to use to programmatically change the state each time the box is clicked.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a form with about 10 subforms on it, all of which have queries as source objects. All of these queries are based off the same table which contains a field for Customer. What I would like to do is have a toggle button on this form that, once pressed, essentially adds a "not like" criteria to each of these subforms' queries EXNot Like "Customer_A"). When depressed, the queries/subforms should exist as is.
My first issue is that when I add a toggle button, the control wizard does not start. It starts up fine for any other control, however. For example, I imagine that on the After Update event of the toggle button I would requery each of the subforms, but I'm not sure how to add the "not like" criteria to each of the underlying queries.
I have a form with data fields and a list box, data is coming from a query. When I add a toggle button to apply a filter to the data on the form, the data in the fields are filtered, but the list box still shows all the data items. How do I use a toggle button or something on the form that when activated it filters the data in the list box and the list box only shows the filtered content.
View 14 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I have a form with two subform on it and two toggle buttons.
Clicking each toggle button will open one of subform, and clicking it again will close that subform. But the problem is that I need to click the toogle button two time to open the sub form.
So, what is the problem??
This is the code under On Click event:
Private Sub Toggle0_Click()
If Me.TendComm_Label.Visible = False Then
Me.TendComm_Label.Visible = True
Me.TendComm.Visible = True
Else
Me.TendComm_Label.Visible = False
Me.TendComm.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Toggle1_Click()
If Me.AuthorizedSignature_Label.Visible = False Then
Me.AuthorizedSignature_Label.Visible = True
Me.AuthorizedSignature.Visible = True
Else
Me.AuthorizedSignature_Label.Visible = False
Me.AuthorizedSignature.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
how do these work syntactically? there's no wizard for them.
i want to create a button that displays a picture, then when you click it, it shrinks the form and changes the button picture, and when it is clicked again, the form goes back to the original size and picture. thanks
Hi, I'm very new to programming and i have very little knowledge about it. My problem is probably more simple than I may think, but for some reason I haven't been able to find a solution for it.
In MS Office, I'm making a form with a few toggle buttons which are linked to Yes/No fields on a seperate table. What I would like to do with the buttons is in their default state, which is "No", I want for the word "No" to appear on the top of the button. When the button is pressed, I need for the button to display the word "Yes". I know that it's possible to set the caption on the button to "No". Is there a way to have the caption change to display "Yes" with the press of the same button it's on? If so how? Also to have the fields reset to default with a new page on the form.
Please explain it to me as if I'm a 5 year old trying to learn programming.
Thanks in advance.
Hi, I would like to have a toggle button on my form that when clicked it changes the button colour and the button text. The toggle button doesnt have to be bound.
cheers
I have a contact list db that displays in datasheet view on startup. I also have an alternate form that displays in datasheet mode that i want to be able to toggle to with a click of a button. I would like the button to appear at the top of the default datasheet form, that will allow a user to toggle to the alternate form when they need to.

I want to add a toggle button that when press will filter my query so that it shows only items with a value > 0 in the quantity field. And when not pressed it won't filter by that field at all.
View 14 Replies View RelatedHere's a little design problem, all of my VB script works fine, it's just a design problem:
Toggle Button (onClick) {
if pressed in, unlock protected field, pass focus to protected field
else (if not pressed in), lock protected field
}
Protected Field (lostFocus){
When Focus is lost, protect field then reset toggle button
}
See, there's no way that I know of for Access to tell what field has focus at any given moment. It lies inert until an event fires off then it responds. You can't wake Access up and tell it to go do something. So, Protected Field has to lock itself when it loses focus.
Here's the problem. If a user unlocks the field but then decides not to make a change and clicks the toggle again to lock the field, first Access fires the script to protect the field (locking it), then it resets the toggle button, then it registers the toggle button click which unlocks the field. See the problem? If the user changes their mind about changing the field and then tries to lock the field, it ends up unlocked. I need something that will work whether the user is good about it or whether the user is in a rush and forgets about it.
I am one of the guys that the dept. drops 1k to send to the beginner through expert level courses for Access, so I ask patience as I am new to VB coding.
I am working on a database to track patient surgical information. I am using a toggle button to control "patient surgery site" visibility, depending on the number of sites associated with them. They are labeled Site A Site B, Site C
What I want is if a patient only has one site, I press the appropriate toggle (Site_A_Button, Site_C_Button, and Site_C_Button) and only fields pertaining to Site A appear. If they have 2 sites, I can press both of the toggles for A and B, but the C will remain hidden, etc.
Each toggle controls 3 fields -
For the Site A button - Site_A, Diagnosis_A, A_Blocks_Check
For the Site B button - Site_B, Diagnosis_B, B_Blocks_Check
For the Site C button - Site_C, Diagnosis_C, C_Blocks_Check
The *_Blocks_Check also controls visibility for a respective fourth field - Site_A_Blocks , Site_B_Blocks , Site_C_Blocks
So far, I have A and B working just fine. By default, the toggle for A is set to -1 so it is visible by default. Site B and C are default 0. Both A and B work exactly as I want them to, however, site C does NOT. It has identical coding as B, however, it is visible by default (despite the "default 0") and the Site_C_Blocks visibility (controlled by the Check Box) also does not work properly. Here is the VB-
Private Sub A_Blocks_Check_Click()
If A_Blocks_Check = 0 Then
Site_A_Blocks.Visible = False
End If
If A_Blocks_Check = -1 Then
Site_A_Blocks.Visible = True
End If
End Sub
Private Sub B_Blocks_Check_Click()
If B_Blocks_Check = 0 Then
Site_B_Blocks.Visible = False
End If
If B_Blocks_Check = -1 Then
Site_B_Blocks.Visible = True
End If
End Sub
Private Sub C_Blocks_Check_Click()
If C_Blocks_Check = 0 Then
Site_C_Blocks.Visible = False
End If
If C_Blocks_Check = -1 Then
Site_C_Blocks.Visible = True
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Site_A_Button_Click()
If Site_A_Button = -1 Then
Site_A.Visible = True
End If
If Site_A_Button = -1 Then
Diagnosis_A.Visible = True
End If
If Site_A_Button = -1 Then
A_Blocks_Check.Visible = True
End If
If Site_A_Button = 0 Then
Site_A.Visible = False
End If
If Site_A_Button = 0 Then
Diagnosis_A.Visible = False
End If
If Site_A_Button = 0 Then
A_Blocks_Check.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Site_B_Button_Click()
If Site_B_Button = 0 Then
Site_B.Visible = False
End If
If Site_B_Button = 0 Then
Diagnosis_B.Visible = False
End If
If Site_B_Button = 0 Then
B_Blocks_Check.Visible = False
End If
If Site_B_Button = -1 Then
Site_B.Visible = True
End If
If Site_B_Button = -1 Then
Diagnosis_B.Visible = True
End If
If Site_B_Button = -1 Then
B_Blocks_Check.Visible = True
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Site_C_Button_Click()
If Site_C_Button = 0 Then
Site_C.Visible = False
End If
If Site_C_Button = 0 Then
Diagnosis_C.Visible = False
End If
If Site_C_Button = 0 Then
C_Blocks_Check.Visible = False
End If
If Site_C_Button = -1 Then
Site_C.Visible = True
End If
If Site_C_Button = -1 Then
Diagnosis_C.Visible = True
End If
If Site_C_Button = -1 Then
C_Blocks_Check.Visible = True
End If

Now I know this is probably sloppy coding, but it was the only way I could get this to work properly at all, so feel free to critique as well.
I want to actually add additional sites (Site D and Site E), but not until I can figure out why the problem is with just A B and C.
I apologize if this seems a bit confusing, but if anyone could help out, I would be most appreciative!
I have a form that contains a combo box, I used the access wizard to make this combo box select a record from a table of customers and display that record on the form.
The user then has the option to print that record.
This works fine.
I now want to be able use the same combo box but with a different table so I can select Records from a list of suppliers.
Is there a way I could use a toggle button to change the rowsource of the combo box and then use that same combo box to select records from my supplier table.
I have a form that I use to filter a sub-form. In the form I have 4 toggle buttons that filter the corresponding fields in the sub-form quite well. What I would like to have is when one toggle is selected, the user can select a second or third toggle to further refine their inquiry. I am attaching the code that I used for the individual filters.
Code:
Private Sub Toggle_Filter_DOB_Click()
If Me.Toggle_Filter_DOB = True Then
[Forms]![Phase 2]![FormPhase2_sub].Form.Filter = "DOB = #" & Me.ATS_DOB & "#"
[Forms]![Phase 2]![FormPhase2_sub].Form.FilterOn = True
Me.Toggle_Filter_DOB.Caption = "Filter On"
[Code] ......
Access 2010 64bit
I have an issue with the Access "Toggle Filter Button" being ticked whenever I open a form from a listbox (dbl click)...
[tblOrders] - (Key) [ID] - [Date] - [Consignee] (Text) - [OrderComplete] (Yes/No)
[tblPurchaseOrders] - (Key) [ID] - (Key) [AssignedID] - [ProductName] - [Weight]
This is just an example and it is not exactly what my database looks like however it allows me to explain easier.
tblOrders and tblPurchaseOrders are related One-to-Many ( tblOrders.[ID]->tblPurchaseOrders.[AssignedID]).
Anyways, I have a listbox on my primary form that lists tblOrders by ID, Date, Consignee and OrderComplete. When I first built the form and I bound the listbox to column 0 ([ID]) and created the event on double-click which the code looked like this:
Code:
Private Sub listOrders_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
Dim intLinkID As String
intLinkID = Me.tblOrders.Value
stLinkCriteria = "[ID] = " & intLinkID
Debug.Print stLinkCriteria
stDocName = "frmManageOrders"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit_Command23_Click:
Exit Sub
End Sub
Now, for whatever reason - either something I've changed or a bug somewhere... when I double-click the list item, it opens as a new record rather than the corresponding record. I noticed that the "Toggle Filter" button on the access ribbon was ticked so I unchecked it and it immediately switched to the proper record. Why does this happen and what (if common) changes can make this appear or work this way? I am a novice with Access and I am still learning VBA. I struggle with not knowing parameters by heart, although the syntax seems to be similar to other languages I've worked with.
I had somehow enabled "Data Entry" which is located on the Property Sheet of a Form under the "Data" tab. Apparently this mode removes your ability to actually filter values properly and is intended for what you'd assume it means - Data Entry.
Is it possible to use a toggle button to change the colour of a label?
I assume the code should be something like this:
Code:
If Me.ToggleButton = 1 Then
Label.BackColor = RGB(0, 255, 0)
ElseIf Me.ToggleButton = 0 Then
Label.BackColor = RGB(255, 255, 255)
End If
But I've tried it in the "On Click" sections and it doesn't work.
I have a form that opens with a filter on depending on what the user is supposed to see. When I deploy this, I don't want them to see the "toggle filter" button at the top. I tried making a custom ribbon like this:
Code:
<customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com
/office/2006/01/customui">
<ribbon startFromScratch="true">
<tabs>
<tab idMso="TabHome" visible="false" />
[Code] ....
But it didn't seem to have any effect. When I applied it, it didn't even create "A Custom Tab". That might be because I have disabled everything that I could disable on the "Current database" options, I'm not sure.
I'm quite new to Acces (2010) . Currently, I'm working on a form in which certain fields are set to invisible. I'd like to toggle fields to visible based on the button clicked.
Example:
Field 1: O No O Yes --> When No is clicked Field 2 (containing a date) becomes visible
--> When Yes is clicked Field 3 and 4 (both yes/no fields) become visible
I have a form thats already created. I would like to put a box or something next to a button so I can monitor when the last time the button was pushed. Ive seen it somewhere before and never took a moment or a need to see how it was put together.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am not sure where to start or go about creating message box that would display "No results found" if my queries return no results. My search of the forums hasn't been fruitful.
I have created one form that has a text box and a button that works as a search function to run through the tables and displays the applicable queries. Currently, if no results are returned nothing happens. Preferably I would like a message box to display stating that there were "No results found". I would assume that the code would be associated with the "Find" button. Here is the VBA code as it stands, again, I haven't even attempted to add code for a message box.
Private Sub Find_Click()
On Error GoTo Find_Click_Err
If DCount("Heading", "Service Desk Manual Query") > 0 Then
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Service Desk Manual Query", acViewNormal, acReadOnly

Find_Click_Err:

View 2 Replies View RelatedSo what I've basically got here is a form with 4 combo boxes and a button that when clicked will filter the results of a table (which is a subform/subreport) based on the values inside the combo boxes. So the problem I have is that when I open up the form it displays a fully filled table but I just want to display the row names and a blank table until the filter button is pressed.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a single form which becomes either readonly or editable or addnew using a circular toggle switch. The toggle switch is activated by a command button and the caption of the command button is used as the display of the mode.
The SetAddModeBt is a separate command button that initiates the add mode. The problem is that various form or field properties when defined on the fly are not stored and they get lost when you open the form again. Look at the code below:
Code:
Sub tglEditBt_Click()
'-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Circular toggle button to change display mode of the form
' ReadOnly - Edit - Add
'-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
' On Error GoTo NotFound
Dim ForName As String
Dim strSQL As String
Dim FMode As String

Here the first two cases fail when executing the last statement saying it is not supported.
I created a form that has about 200 fields and all the fields are utilized at a point depending on the work order assigned to us. I wanted to know if it's possible to put like a toggle box or a check box etc. next to the field so if it is checked it would be in a Dark color and the ones not utilized are in a shade of gray. All the fields are coming from the same table. Another thing it's an estimate worksheet so a row would have something like, Labor, QTY, HRs, Overtime, total as columns, so I would want a check box to have control over those but one for each row, EX contractor, locksmith.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to create a toggle on a form that would instruct a query which criteria to use.
Specifically they are date criteria. I want to be able to toggle between evaluating on a start basis verse a ship basis.
If the toggle is set to 'Start Date', the query would use the start date as its criteria. If the toggle is set to 'Ship Date" it would use the ship date.
The other complication is that within the query, "Start Date" and "Ship Date" are two separate fields always contained in the query, so how do I write the query so that it only applies criteria to the appropriate field based on the toggle setting?
I would like to create a command button on the header of a form. The button should perform a toggle switch: click once to activate the task and click it again returning original state. I can create the command button to perform a task but do not know how to return to original state. The button should have indicator showing which state is in.
