View RepliesI have a date/time text field on a form with the General Date format and a combo box next to it that has sequencial times as the row source (IE. 12:45 AM, 1:00 AM, 1:15 AM, 1:30 AM, ETC.) When the user chooses a time in the combo box, I want the time portion of the text box to be updated with the chosen time in the combo. I have tried a few things but cant seem to get it right.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have the following in the after update event in a Combo bound to a tbl on a Main form;
Sub Combo8_AfterUpdate()
' Find the record that matches the control.
Me.RecordsetClone.FindFirst "[Vendor] = '" & Me![Combo8] & "'"
Me.Bookmark = Me.RecordsetClone.Bookmark
End Sub
The Combo gets its data from a table and I use the Not In List to add data which is not in the Tbl and of course Limit To List is set to Yes.
It works ok with one exception, when data is entered, but not saved, then deleted And the form closed. In this set of circumstances I get an error in the code above. Granted that normally a user will not delete data from the combo then exit the form but it does happen occasionally. I have tried adding On error goto.... but with no luck. Any suggestions?
My table has an auto generated key as a string.
So on the offchance that two clients are trying to autogenerate a key at exactly the same time, I'm trying to trap the 3022 error raised when a duplicate key is entered so that I can repeat the operation with a goto.
I'm raising the error with requery like this:
DoCmd.Save acForm, Me.Name 'next line triggers 3022
DoCmd.Requery
After I realised that the normal handler wouldn't trap it I got the database from this thread:
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=77529&highlight=3022
But it doesn't seem to work for me:

Hi,
I have a VBA code that runs an append query to update a table. Due to relationship integrity a validation error shows (a type does not exist in the connected table): What I want to do is trap the error and write something that the user can understand. Help !
The Code:
Code:Private Sub Report_Deactivate()Dim Msg, Style, Title, Response, MyStringMsg = "Click OK to Import Verified Data to the Invoice Table"Style = vbYesNo + vbMsgSetForegroundTitle = "Verify Import"Response = MsgBox(Msg, Style, Title)If Response = vbYes Then 'This is the problem line DoCmd.OpenQuery "qry_Step_5_appending_invoices", acViewNormal, acEdit DoCmd.OpenQuery "Qry_Step_6_update_fob", acViewNormal, acEditElse MyString = "No"End IfEnd Sub
appreciate any help, thanks
I have a "homemade" switchboard that I am using and the first page allows the choice of administrator or user. I have used access user level security to deny all but administrators access to the administrator "path" in my switchboard.
When a user clicks on it, they get the runtime error 2603 saying that they don't have access. I am trying to modify the on error event so that the error won't show up and a custom message box I create will show up instead, however I cannot seem to get my on error code to do anything. I always get the standard access runtime error return box. Does anyone have any ideas??
I have an "Error trapping" problem.
I am relatively new to VBA and wondered if someone would be so kind and point out the error in my code.
I have a form "frmSelectInvoices" that opens another form, "frmInvoice".
I use the Select Invoices form to select completed jobs that are not invoiced, based on a query.
The user would then select a job that he/she wants to invoice, and "frmInvoice" opens in front of "frmSelectInvoice".
"frmInvoice" is based on "tblInvoices" and a couple of the required fields, (customer, JobID, etc) are filled-in automatically using the information from a couple of fields from "frmSelectInvoice"
"frmInvoice" also has an InvoiceNumber field which tblInvoices needs as it is set as a required field with no duplicates, (this is NOT the primary key).
I am trying to notify the user that the InvoiceNumber has already been used, and to reset the record, so they can enter a new Invoice Number.
The code I have so far is as follows;
Code:Private Sub Notes_Exit(Cancel As Integer)On Error GoTo Err_SameNumber Dim iResponse As Integer iResponse = MsgBox("Do you wish to Print an Invoice", vbYesNo, "SELECT AN OPTION") If iResponse = vbYes Then DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord Forms!frmSelectInvoice!Invoiced.Value = True Forms!frmSelectInvoice.Requery DoCmd.Save acForm, "frmInvoice" DoCmd.OpenReport "rptInvoice", acNormal, "", "[pkInvoiceID]=[Forms]![frmInvoice]![pkInvoiceID]" Me.btnClose.SetFocus Exit Sub End If If iResponse = vbNo Then MsgBox "You can Print it out later from the Invoices Main Menu", , "You Selected NO" End If DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord Forms!frmSelectInvoice!Invoiced.Value = True Forms!frmSelectInvoice.Requery Me.btnClose.SetFocusExit_SameNumber:DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdUndo DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec Me.fkBookingID.Value = Forms!frmSelectInvoice!pkBookingID.Value Me.fkCustomerID.Value = Forms!frmSelectInvoice!fkCustomerID.ValueMe.InvoiceNumber.SetFocusExit SubErr_SameNumber: MsgBox "Invoice Number has already been used", vbInformation, "Please use a New Invoice Number" Resume Exit_SameNumberEnd Sub
When I test the form with a number I know already exists, or even a number that has not been used before, the error message comes up and it then sets the focus to InvoiceNumber, but when I try and close the form it still keeps coming up and the only way I can get rid of it is to close the application using Windows Task Manager.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
Thanx
Hi guys, I was looking for a way to trap err.number 3314 (when required field is null) before Jet generates its warning. I came across an old post from Rich (below), but I couldn't make it work as yet. In the calling form, under the Form_Error event I wrote the following:
Dim f As Form
Set f = Me
Call fnValidateForm(f)
Could anyone please tell me where my error lays here? I have several forms which have several text and/or combo boxes bound to required fields and I would want to have a generic code, like the one here to trap errors before Jet shows it's Error Message.
Thanks in advance

Ok, I have a delete query that I use to delete records form a table. I have created a form that I run that query from. It has Delete button that runs the query. After I get the message that says "You are about to delete 56 records" and I click No, I get a "run-time error '3059'. Operation Cancel by user"
I did some searching on the forum and thought I could trap this error. But I still continue to get the error at
"DoCmd.OpenQuery stDocName, acNormal, acEdit"
What am I doing wrong and how can I prevent this error from appearing when I click NO or cancel the operation.
Private Sub cmdDelete_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdDelete_Click
Dim stDocName As String
stDocName = "qryDeleteRecords"
DoCmd.OpenQuery stDocName, acNormal, acEdit
Exit_cmdDelete_Click:
Exit Sub
cmdDelete_Error:
Select Case Err.Number
Case 3059
MsgBox "You have canceled the delete operation.", vbOKOnly, "Delete Canceled"
Exit Sub
Case Else
MsgBox "Error number: " & Err.Number & " has occurred. " & Err.Description, vbOKOnly, "Error"
End Select
Err_cmdDelete_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdDelete_Click
End Sub
I've made my own record navigation buttons on a form. they work fine, except when i get to the first record. if i click 'previous' then the 2105 error pops up "you can't go to specified record". the buttons were created through the wizard, and have error trapping in them. for some reason, it never actually goes to the error handler. the error message comes up, i press debug, and the 'DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acPrevious' is highlighted.
any ideas why the error trapping isn't working? here's the code:
Private Sub cmdPrevJob_Click()
Dim x As Variant
On Error GoTo Err_cmdPrevJob_Click
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acPrevious
Exit_cmdPrevJob_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdPrevJob_Click:
If Err.Number = 2105 Then stop
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdPrevJob_Click
End Sub
I've got my form working, and all of the record updating is working fine, so now I am working on error trapping. I need to check if any of the two textboxes are empty, or nothing has been selected from the combobox. I am using the BeforeUpdate method. I am not getting any syntax errors. I am using an INSERT INTO SQL statement. Thanks.

I'm currently building my first database for a research project. When we enroll a participant, we need to have an enrollment date/time as well as an activation date/time (and they are not allowed to be the same because, rules). I was able to figure out how to auto-populate the current date/time when we've marked a person as enrolled. What I'm wondering is if it is also possible to auto-populate another field with the date/time, ten minutes in the future?
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy setup:
frmUsedOilContract (contains a header and a subform)
subfrmUsedOilContract (contains a few controls) [datasheet view]
- Removed Date
- Voucher Number
- Building Number
I implemented some code so that a temporary default value could be set for the date and the Voucher Number. I also have the default value for 'txtRemovalDate' set at 'Date()'.
PHP Code:
Private Sub txtVoucherNumber_AfterUpdate() 'Set current value to default value.
txtVoucherNumber.DefaultValue = txtVoucherNumber.ValueEnd Sub
PHP Code:
Private Sub txtRemovalDate_AfterUpdate() 'Set current value to default value.
txtRemovalDate.DefaultValue = txtRemovalDate.ValueEnd Sub
Also have code so the default value is null when the form is opened.
PHP Code:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer) 'Set Default Value properties to nothing.
txtVoucherNumber.DefaultValue = vbNullString txtRemovalDate.DefaultValue = vbNullStringEnd Sub
This all works great until I try to change the date. If I use the default date (today's date), the new record will stay with today's date. If I change it to a different date, the new record displays a time instead.
I am using following routine to lift data from Excel files into Access tables. Whole thing works, well, most of the time. The only issue I have is the spreadsheets are received from warehouses and even though they have been given strict instruction to stick to the template, I have had to adjust the spreadsheets. Amongst errors I get are:
Field 'F16' does not exist in table 'SA1'. (In this case I simply delete the last most empty column to fix this).
Or there are column name spellings and in such cases, I get no error and the simply code hangs.
Is there any routine that I could incorporate in the code that clearly states what issues are being experienced. This way I can pass the db to the user to run it themselves.
'Dim dbs As Database, tdf As TableDef
Set dbs = CurrentDb
On Error GoTo Macro1_Err
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
' RunSQL executes a SQL string
[Code] .....
Component that is capable of putting a timeline on an Access form and displaying records with a date-time field.
What I want, is for example:
tabevents contains two basic fields:
eventtime (datetime)
eventname (string)
eventcomplete (bool)
What I want to place on the form is a visual timeline which calculates the time between the first and last event and places all events accordingly along the line, spaced out, ideally with an arrow/marker that moves along the line as time progresses, highlighting any events that haven't been marked as complete. Double clicking on the event would allow us to mark it as complete.
I know this is a long shot, but thought it worth seeing if such a thing exists.
Looking to create two command buttons or two keystrokes sets in an Access 2007 form that will allow me to place a current date and time in any allowable field where the Cursor is presently placed. Similar to what was in Access 2000, ctl: (for the current date) and ctl shift : (for the current time).
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
Wonder if someone can help please. I'm quite new to Access so please bear with me.
I have a data field in my database consisting of both a date and time.
I then have a form containing two fields where the user can type a 'To' and 'From' date to extract the records that they are interested in. The query behind this uses the 'Between[Enter The Date] And [Enter The Date]' coding.
The problem is that because the field contains a time it doesn't return any records when I run the query.
Can anyone offer a bit of guidance on how I could ignore the time part of the field perhaps by adapting the above.
Many thanks
Chris
I have a column/field named [DateTaken] which contains test dates and times in the same cell. I am needing to find those with a test time less than 2:30 pm or <14:30pm.
data looks like this:
8/22/13 4:23 PM
1/29/14 12:21 PM
1/28/14 3:27 PM
8/26/13 4:27 PM
[code]....
this is what I have come up with to extract the time component of data set so that I can then later, sort it by the time in a query.
JustTime: TimeValue([YourField])
JustTime: ("hh:mm",([DateTaken])) and or ("hh:mm",[DateTaken])
I get either invalid operator or invalid syntax errors trying both of these.
Hello all - One of my 3 users' computers keeps coming up with an error when I try to enter the following command in the "Validation Rule" field of the table design view:
>=#1/1/1998# And <=Date()
Some investigative work showed that it's erroring on this clause: "<=Date()". Any idea why it would error on her pc and not the other 2 pc's? Her pc is old, but we're all using Access 2002. The error says: "The function you entered can't be used in this expression." Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks much.

I wanted to assign the field "Number of magazine" with special format based on date/time format but showing only year and month in the format: "yyyy-mm".
So in property of this field in format I put yyyy-mm and in input mask I type 0000-00;;-
I also created the form based on the table containing above field and I defined format and input mask for corresponding formant in the same way like at the table.
But if I try to type date for example 2014-01 in text box of the form it comes up with the full date 2014-01-01. Why does it do like this? What do I do incorrectly?
I have a query based on a table which has a date field. the field both in the table and the query have the time also in the date value so when I try to query on a date I get nothing if I copy the date and time from the field I will get the result for that record if I just use the date I get nothing. I have tried the format which does display just date but if you click on the field the time is also there You must be able to query for a date only and get all the records.

View 13 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am trying to compare a value in my databse produced by the date() function, short date format, to one that is exactly 24 hours after the value recorded by the date() function. If the value in the database is 24 hours prior to the current date(), I need to flag a text box a diffrent color to alert the user. I am unsure on the If statement that I will need to produce this result.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!
