Forms :: Checkbox To Select Record In Continuous Subform
May 22, 2015I have a continuous subform linked in a data query, I added some check box to select for each record. However, everytime I check a checkbox, it also check the same checkbox on the next record.
My check box consists of Shipping options - FEDEX, COURIER and HAND DELIVERY. These are the options I need to check for each records in the subform.
Is there a way I can select different checkbox for each record?

View 3 Replies View RelatedForms :: Form That Allows User To Select A Record In A Combo Box
Jul 3, 2014I have a form that allows the user to select a record in a combo box. When this selection is made I want a 2nd form to open and give the user a place to enter additional info about that item selected. I have the forms working correctly but now I would really like to add the 2nd form to the first form as a subform but when I try this I get the message"The expressing is typed incorrectly or is too complex to be evaluated..." There are no fields on the first form that link directly to the 2nd form - because the combo box in an unbound combo (the selection in the combo box is what the 2nd form opens base on) I tried to add this as a subform with no parent/child info and I get the message stated.
I was hoping to make the 2nd form not visible until the selection was made in the combo box then make it visible for the info to be entered. Would really like it to be on the same form not as a separate form opening.I believe I just found that the reason for the message. It seems not to be a subform problem but is because the selection in the combo box needs to be made BEFORE the form can open. So now the question is - how can I make this a subform and avoid this error when the main form first opens. I will test the visibility and see if not visible until the selection clears this up.

Forms :: Combo Box To Allow A User To Select Date And Relevant Work Details Appear In Subform
Jun 10, 2013I have created a simple database, with 2 x tables. The first is a 'Week Ending' table, with a dateid key and Week Ending field. I have created several week-ending dates in order for a user to input details of work done the previous week. The second table contains the details of the work.
I have a one to many relationship between the dateid in the first table, and a dateid of the work details table.
I created a query based on the work details table, and created a subform from that. In a main form I linked a combo box to allow a user to select a date and the relevant work details appear in the subform. However the Week Ending field only shows one date, not a list of the dates I created.
Modules & VBA :: Allow User To Change Default Checkbox Values?
Jun 20, 2013I've got a form (frmEdit) that allows users to search tblMain for records using a bunch of unbound controls and a dynamically created SQL statement. Search results are displayed in a subform (subMain), and the current record in the subform is displayed in a set of bound controls on frmEdit.
Now the important bit: There is a set of unbound checkboxes on my form that allow the user to change which fields are visible in subMain. This is accomplished by the following:
Code:
Private Sub chkName_AfterUpdate()
If Me.chkName = 0 Then
Me.subMain.Form.CorrespondingField.ColumnHidden = True
Else
Me.subMain.Form.CorrespondingField.ColumnHidden = False
End If
End Sub
Certain fields are visible by default, but the user may want to change which fields those are. Here's what I've done so far to accomplish this:
Created a button (btnChangeDefaults) that opens a form (frmChangeDefaults)
Put checkboxes for each table field on frmChangeDefaults
Put a "Cancel" button (btnCancel)* and "Done" button (btnDone)** on frmChangeDefaults.
*btnCancel just closes frmChangeDefaults without making any changes to frmChangeDefaults or frmEdit
**btnDone changes Forms.frmEdit.Form.chkName.DefaultValue to Me.CorrespondingCheckBox.Value and then closes frmChangeDefaults
This all seems to work quite well, actually. Debugging confirms that the default values of the checkboxes on frmEdit are indeed changed when I click btnDone. But when I close frmEdit and re-open it, the default values return to what they were prior. This happens even when:
I close frmEdit using DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmEdit", acSaveYes
I close frmEdit after using DoCmd.Save acForm, "FrmEdit"
I save frmEdit manually by right-clicking and pressing save
What am I missing here?

I've got an Option Group with 3 options; Yes, No and Future.
I also have a range of Check Boxes; 1 for every day of the week.

Currently, the Option Group defaults to Future and No will only be available by manually selecting it. This doesn't need to be changed.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Select Query Based On A User Choice
Nov 13, 2006Hi,
I would like to run a simple select query, where the CRITERIA is based on the user choice.
I have a form with a combo box, with a few choices, and a button that will trigger a macro with one query for now. I can store the choice in to a variable e.g. "town", using Microsoft VB code.
How can I transfer the variable to the CRITERIA field in the query, so whenever I chose a specific "town", my query will select the records for that specific town.
I want to use one query, and I don't want to have to "hard type the criteria in to the cells' query", but I would like to use a variable that can change and will be read it from the user choice through combo box.
If I am not clear enough, please let me know.
Thank you!
User Select ID And Get The Form With Data By That ID, But What If The ID Not Exists??
May 19, 2006Hello everyone,
I've made a form where the user can fill in a field ID... and than by clicking on a button another form will be opened with the data of that person (with that ID that's filled in). But if the user fill in an ID that is not currently in the database, there will be also shown another form, but than with no data.. Now I want that if the ID is not known, to display a message or something (like "this ID is not known, try again") and not to open the form..
I've used the following code under the button:
Private Sub openenFormulier_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_openenFormulier_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "Onderzoek"
stLinkCriteria = "[Qr_Ant_PG.ID]=" & Me![ID]
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit_openenFormulier_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_openenFormulier_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_openenFormulier_Click
End Sub
Hopefully someone can help me!

Union Query - Possible For User To Select Tables ?
Jun 28, 2006I have Access2003 and a problem creating a simple method of constructing a union query.
I am using a commercial paradox databse that has a habit of creating a new table every time a certain action is performed. There is currently a set of 160 tables with identical fields. The database allows me to view data in these tables individually. I would like to pull the information together, from between 20 and 30 specific tables at any one time, and view the data in one table.
I have linked the tables in a an access database and would go about viewing the data by creating a union query containing each of the tables of interest. Then appending the info in these tables to a new table.
Unfortunately manually adjusting the SQL expression is a bit cumbersome to say the least I am wondering if it possible to select the tables of interest from a List Box on a simple form and have those selected inserted into the union query ?
Alternatively, the table names are actually a field within a different table. Another field within this table actually determines whether they will be of interest. So ideally I could query that table to tell me which tables need to appear in the union query. Again I would like the union query generated automatically as a result of that query.
I am confident, perhaps without good reason , that this must be possible ....
any help much appreciated.
Reports :: User Select Data For Report
Aug 22, 2013How to proceed and what is the "accepted" version of events.I have created a report, a dynamic method statement actually, and want my user to be able select some data to appear in the report. Report is rptMS01, it is fed from a query and has some fields to automatically populate [Company], [Site], [Postcode] etc. All of the static text is in CanGrow textboxes to sidestep the report height limit. The report is opened by a button on a form which uses a macro to open only for the current site. All OK so far.
My boss would like a section/text box/subreport to select the personnel involved in each method statement and this to appear on the report. So, on clicking the button on the form which would usually open the report directly, some kind of intermediary selection form opens instead with a list of all personnel. User can then select which personnel to involve and on clicking OK this appears in the designated box on the report. A CanGrow/Shrink textbox would be ideal!
Do I need to include this in the current query which feeds the report? I know a listbox can have multiple selections but how would I reference this? How do I keep the other fields as well? Should I create a table with the personnel list?...

Queries :: Select Change ID From Changes Made To User Accounts

Give User Ability To Select Different Time Frames On A Report
Aug 11, 2015I want to give the user the ability to run a report but display records based on different user defined time frames. So when I run the report it allows (on the Enter Parameter Value prompt) user to enter 30, 45 60 etc (to represent days). The report then looks at all records with a start date in the next x days based on what user enters
For a separate report, I want to be able to run the same report but give user (based on drop down) ability to view all reports or only those from today's date only.

Modules & VBA :: Allow User To Select A Location To Save Just A Copy Of Image In JPG Format
Dec 6, 2013Access 2010:
The database I'm working on stores label images, or better stated, it stores file paths where the label images are stored. These paths are used in reports and forms to view the label images within the database. What I'd like to do is to create a "save" or "email" button that will allow the user to select a location to save just a copy of the image in jpg format. I realize that it is possible to imbed the jpg image into a report and export it as a pdf. What I'd really like to do is find a way to save the image (perhaps by copying it from the path in the database and simply relocating it) and preserve the jpg extension if that is possible.
I am also aware that there are third party applications that will convert pdf reports into jpg files however network restrictions keep me pretty limited in my ability to download third party software.

View 4 Replies View RelatedQueries :: Select Query To Pull Records Based On Multiple Strings Entered By A User?
May 1, 2013Is it possible to run a basic select query to pull records based on multiple strings entered by a user?
I have a query with field criteria - Like '*' & [Type In MMDBID:-] & '*'
This allows the user to input one MMDBID and the records are retrieved from the db.
I can also use the OR statement in the same field criteria "AB123" OR "BC123", and all records based on those values are pulled back.
But I cannot get the user to input multiple values and I tried amending the SQL string based on the OR criteria above
SQL statement (Like) is below :
SELECT tblFund.MMDBID, tblFund.[Investment Name], tblCodesLive.[IOE Code], tblCodesLive.[Uptix Code], tblFund.[Red Payment Deadline]
FROM (tblFund INNER JOIN tblCodesLive ON tblFund.MMDBID = tblCodesLive.MMDBID) INNER JOIN tblContact ON (tblFund.MMDBID = tblContact.MMDBID) AND (tblCodesLive.MMDBID = tblContact.MMDBID)
WHERE (((tblFund.MMDBID) Like '*' & [Type In MMDBID:-] & '*') AND ((tblFund.Editing)=False) AND ((tblFund.Closed_Fund)=False));
