Forms :: Using Multiple Select List Box?

Jun 24, 2015

Currently I am using a multiple select list box in a form to select the engineer names for a report. I am looking for some enhancement.

Firstly when I do not select any name, there is no records displayed. I need to show all records if I do not select any name in the dropdown list.

I would like to create anther format of report to suit other purpose. Can I add the selection of these two reports apart from the selection of engineer name.

After I complete the selection on the form, I click a command button that has On Click event that consists of following code.

Private Sub Command15_Click()
'Create a string that we can apply to the filter criteria
Dim strWhere As String
strWhere = "" 'Initialize string variable
Dim varSelection As Variant
'Iterate the selections in the listbox

[code]....

Forms :: How To Select Multiple Criteria In A List Box

Feb 4, 2015

I am trying to create a form that allows the user to select a detective and multiple case statuses (such active, inactive, dna, filing, etc.). The form is intended to allow the user to determine the number of assigned cases. The form is tied to a query and the criteria that I've set up in the query is:

[Forms]![DET_CaseManagementFRM]![Combo30] which is under the investigator field.

The case status field has similar criteria [Forms]![DET_CaseManagementFRM]![List43].

My problem is that I cant figure out how to allow the user to select multiple criteria in case status field in my form. The research I've done online says you need to specify simple or extended in the Multi Select field under the other tab in the property sheet. However, when I do specify simple it doesnt return any records which I know it not true. Is there VB code that I need for this?

Multiple Select List Box

Jun 28, 2005

Good Afternoon! I am working on a database that tracks our members' attendance at a large meeting. Every person at the meeting has at least one role to play at the meeting and may have up to four. I have created a "tablePositions" with the fields "PositionID" and "Position" to define the various roles people can play at the meeting. In my "formRegistration" form I created a list box with the multiselect property set to Simple. The list is working fine, it appears in my form, it displays the names of the positions (as opposed to the PositionID), and I can select more than one "Position". However, when I view the "tableRegistration" table, I do not see any of the "Positions" I clicked on. I would like them to display (for example) "Delegate, Committee Chair, Trustee" in the "Position" field.

I have been digging around the forum to see if any other threads matched my problem, but couldn't find exactly the same issue. I know enough about access to be dangerous, but could you please include the code and where to put the code in your reply?

Thank you. I really appreciate websites like yours!

Select Multiple Items From Dropdown List

Mar 24, 2006

Hi,

I would like to be able to select multiple items from a dropdown list like we often see on web forms. The kind where you hold down the control key to select up to 5 items. Is this possible on an access form? If so, how would do we implement, and how is such data be stored?

Thanks!

Modules & VBA :: Multi Select List Boxes With Multiple Columns In Access 2013

Oct 22, 2014

I have a listbox set to Multiselect property of Simple. The listbox is populated by using a table. There are 4 columns in the listbox

Code:
1 3/23/2014 4/5/2014 2014
2 4/6/2014 4/19/2014 2014
3 4/20/2014 5/3/2014 2014

The columns are PayPeriod, StartDate, EndDate, FiscalYear

What I want to be able to do is highlight a chunk of dates and have the first selected StartDate and the last selected EndDate populate two hidden text boxes so I can use them for my queries/reports.

I've tried a couple different ways. Each time what happens is it only uses the last item I have selected in it's calculations.

Code:
Dim ItemIndex As Variant
For Each ItemIndex In Me.lstPayPeriods.ItemsSelected
If Me.lstPayPeriods.Selected(ItemIndex) And Me.lstPayPeriods.Selected(ItemIndex - 1) = False Then
Date1.SetFocus
Date1.Text = Me.lstPayPeriods.Column(2, Me.lstPayPeriods.ListIndex)
End If
Next

In this example I tried to have it go through each Item of the listbox. I wanted to check to see if the current row was selected and the row before it wasn't. That way I could determine it was the first item selected in the group of selected items. It would always only use the last item I had selected.

Code:
Dim CurrentRow As Integer
Dim FirstDate As Date
For CurrentRow = 0 To Me.lstPayPeriods.ListCount - 1
If Me.lstPayPeriods.Selected(CurrentRow) Then
Date2.SetFocus

[Code] ....

I tried to do something similar with this code. Again, it only uses the last item I have selected.

Forms :: How To Select Item In A List Box Using VBA

Dec 30, 2014

I want to select an item in a listbox that has a specified value when I open the form that contains this listbox. Most I've found describes selecting records based on their index value but I want to select an item according to the actual value that's displayed in the listbox. For example, the first number below is the index value, the 2nd is the number I'm interested in and the 3rd is another column in the listbox:

0 1 12345
1 2 33256
2 4 36280

I'm using the OpenArgs property to pass the value (a long integer primary key) to the opening form but I don't know the syntax or correct terminology for ensuring the specified row is selected in the listbox. At present, using the above example, if I want to select the row with the value 2, it's selecting the 3rd row rather than the 2nd.

Forms :: MultiSelect Or Single Select List Box?

Oct 15, 2013

I have inherited a database that is used to track equipment that comes in for repair. One of the fields in this database is a memo field that lists the parts that are replaced on a piece of equipment. It has been requested that I leave this field as it is. However, I would like to regulate the data that is entered into to some extent. I need to ensure that there is a comma between every part number listed (there is another group that wants data from this database and they want to be able to separate this field out into individual fields). Is there a way to have Access look at the data in a memo field, find all the periods or ampersands, and replace them with commas?

The other thought I had was to provide the person filling in the database with a multi-select list box that lists all the available part numbers for a given piece of equipment. That person could select as many as she wants and when she was done, the database would take those values, put a comma between each one, and paste them in the memo field. Is that possible? What I have tried isn't working. I tried to get it to loop through the selected items and put them in the memo field, but I just end up with the last value selected instead of all of the items selected.

I don't know what to try next, Either the person entering the data is going to be upset because she has to type every part number in a different field, or the people receiving the data are going to be upset because there isn't a comma between each number.

I am creating an absenteeism database which has the following tables:

tblEmp - PK - auto number, EmpId, First Name, Last name
tblFunction - PK - FID (autonumber) has departments

I have a Qry_Master which just joins all the information together as it gets updated on a monthly basis

Now, I am trying to create a form where the user has option to select one or more tls and one or more codes and when they hit the button, it should come up with all emps that have those codes and report to the team leader selected.

In my form, I have made both my list boxes as multiselect and i have Qry_frm that is a parameter query but when i run the button nothing happens and i cant seem to figure it out. I have attached the sample database to this thread.

Forms :: Multi-Select List Boxes To Filter Subform

Oct 6, 2014

I have 7 multi-select list boxes, which I want the user to be able to select multiple items and have it filter a subform by what is selected. The subform will not be visible.

Here is the code I tried for filtering my subform (which is throwing an error when I call it).

Private Function MasterSearch()
On Error GoTo Error_MasterSearch

Dim StrgSQL As String
Dim WhereClause As String
StrgSQL = "SELECT * FROM MasterTbl"

[Code] ...

The above code was to test just 1 of the 7 listboxes. When I call it on click for the command button, it throws an error about the "Call MasterSearch".

List Box One Click Select/deselect With Multi Select

Aug 28, 2004

Hi,
is there any (reasonably simple) way to select or deselect multiple items from the List Box with individual clicks without using Ctrl key. Eg first click on an item would select it leaving all other items as they are, subsequent click on the already selected item would deselect it etc. I hope this is not too confusing and I would appreciate some help.
Thanks!

Forms :: Using Ctrl Key To Select Multiple Values?

Jul 15, 2013

I have created a form that contains data from two tables. Each drop down on the form, for each table, contains multipl values. I want to be able to make multiple selections from each down (usually this is holding down the ctrl key and making multiple selections). However; this method does not work in Access. Is there a way to select multiple values at one time in Access similar to holding down the ctrl key?

Forms :: How To Select A Record Based On Multiple Criteria

May 15, 2013

I have a list of client stored in a table "Clients". I would like a form to present a user with the next client in the list at the click of a button, but there will be some exceptions:

Some clients will be given priority, and should be moved to the top of the list although they may not be the next logical entry in the table. Priority clients are indicated by a field "Priority" with a Yes/No option set before work begins.

Some clients will have requested a call at a certain time of the day - This time will be stored in a field named timeToCall. The next user to click the button after the time has passed should be given that clients details.

When the end of the list is reached any clients who could not be contacted will be tried again. My table currently has a field "Attempts" to track this, but that may not be needed. Clients who have been dealt with will be removed from the "Clients" table to a "Completed" table.

Whichever record is selected will be flagged as being dealt with so that 2 people don't get the same entry. I may add a new field for this, but right now I plan to use the "attempts" field to control this

I am unsure of the best approach to the above, I'm not very well-versed in Access, but if I were doing this in Excel (as originally requested by my boss) I would do it like this:

Use a form where the "Next" button will use VBA code to first check if there are any priority clients, then check if there are any timed client's ready to call and then move to the next entry that has had 0 contact attempts. Whichever record is the next one will be displayed in the form to the user.

Use Multi-select List Box To Filter A Report With Two List Boxes

Nov 20, 2013

Allen Browne's "Use a multi-select list box to filter a report" solution, in particularly with two multi-select list boxes? The code works fine for me for either box so long as I code it for one box alone. Combining the two into one code results in a type mismatch error. I'm trying to use the code to pass the contents of both multi-select boxes as Where conditions to a report. Both boxes are based on number fields. To try to isolate the problem, I've removed Allen's setDescription and OpenArgs conditions. We're unfortunately still on Access 2003 as the company desires to squeeze every dime by using until end-of-life next year.

Code:
Private Sub cmdPreview_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Handler
'Purpose: Open the report filtered to the items selected in the list box.
Dim varItem As Variant 'Selected items

Forms :: Select Multiple Records In Subform To Create New Table

May 21, 2013

I need to create some new records based on main form data and a selection of records from a sub form. The main form and sub form have different sources. I wanted to show the source fields in the sub form along with a check box to allow the users to select individual records. The record source for the sub form contains >1000 records, so the user will first enter data in the main form, use filters to find the records he wants to 'assign' to the main form data, click those he selects, then click a command button in the main form to create the record(s) based on the main form data and the selected records from the sub form. The new records will be appended to a new table.

Forms :: Using A Lookup Wizard To Select Multiple Entries From A Table

Jul 14, 2015

I am trying to create a lookup wizard to record the number of people who attend a regular event. I have a table recording the names, surnames and DOB of registered members and a number of other tables for regular events we hold. Previously people have been manually adding the names of attendees and of course there have been inconsistencies in the data. I want them to look up the names from the table of registered members. I have been using the lookup wizard, but it is only displaying the first name in a string. I need it to display id, first name, surname and DOB in a table. I also want to be able to type in the first letter and then pick from the list.

Query To List Multiple Records In A List From Multiple Queries

Jul 11, 2013

I have a DB where you there's 5 tables all linked together by one project ID

tables below

Project , Staff, Asset, allowances, travel, mark up

What I can do is create a new project, then add records to each of the other tables on what different items I require,

i.e. I create a new project - called project one, in the project table I create a record stating, name, time scale, client and location, then I add different records to each of the other tables on what I require all linked to the same project ID. (probably not explained that too well)

Now I want to create a query that lists all the requirements one after the other this will make it easier to create reports and to calculate costing's.

At the moment I have made 5 different queries listing all the data, then have one report containing 5 sub reports to display the data, no this does work.

Forms :: Multiple Selection On Form (list Box)

Oct 8, 2014

I am trying to resolve a problem with selecting multiple records.

I have a table called T_user and bound form called F_user.

This form displays all 3 fields from that table.

When I want to add a new user, I enter a name and select a department.

Some of the users work for few departments, so here is the question:

How to select multiple departments for one user?

The department field in F_user is set to LISTBOX, and the multi select option in properties is set to SIMPLE.

I can select multiple departments, but as we know it won't save in the table, it will leave it as NULL value.

How can I save the record then? In another form I need to select users from specific department, so lets say A.Smith, need to be visible in those few selected ones.

I have seen this [URL] .....

form this post [URL] .......

but unsure how can I make it work on my form.
