Forms :: Visible / Non-visible Combobox - Column Attribute?
Oct 17, 2013
I have a combobox on my form called TypeOfBusiness, with fields including Corporation, Education, Industry, Non-Profit. In order to make a second combobox called IndustryClassification appear when Industry is selected from the TypeOfBusiness combobox, I have used the following code:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
If Me.TypeOfBusiness = "Industry" Then
Me.IndustryClassification.Visible = True
Else
Me.IndustryClassification.Visible = False
[Code] .....
It works just fine. However, when a user selects both, say, Industry and Education, the IndustryClassification combobox will not appear. What code I can use to ensure the IndustryClassification box will appear regardless if another box is checked in addition to Industry? I am wondering if it has to do with the Column attribute.

I have a form where i select via a combo box if a product has been inspected, if it has, additional controls are then made visible.
If Me.Inspection_Completed = "Yes" Then
Me.Date_Inspection_Comp.Visible = True
Me.Date_Inspection_Comp = Me.Dateinsp
Me.Inspector.Visible = True
Me.Qty_Inspected.Visible = True
Me.OK.Visible = True
[Code] ....
I tried to put this in a function so i could call it on load, or on current etc, but cant seem to get it to work, apparently you cannot use the me. in a function.

I have a Main Form with a Sub-Form, the sub-form is base off a query. on the sub-form i have 8 controls, one of them is "Status' and "Process" and "Review" My Main Form have a Refresh command that refreshes the data in the sub-form.
What i am trying to do is make the "Process" Control only visible is "Status" is a certain status and "Review" visible if "Status" is something else. what i have done works correctly On Open. I run into and issue on the refresh command. I get Run-time error '2165' "You can't hide a control that has the focus"
Code:
If Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Status = "Ready" Then
Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Process.Visible = True
Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Review.Visible = False
ElseIf Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Status = "Reviewing" Then
Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Review.Visible = True
Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Process.Visible = False
End If
I have done similar with a main form and making sub-form visible or not based on a control on a main form and that has worked perfectly. I am not sure how the control is getting focus and cause the error.

I have a form with four subforms set up in a tabs on the form. In the subforms I have a copuple of command buttons which enable/make visible fields when they are clicked (see previous posts but for eg) - if a height and a weight are added in two separate boxes a calculation is done and then a command button pressed to make visible the (label) which shows the mass index the patient falls into. My problem is that the label is then retained so if I click out of the form and re-enter with a new patient then the height and weight boxes are clear but the label from the previous patient remains.
I tried to put the code
Private Sub Form_Load()
If PtWeight = Null And PtHeight = Null And Text60 = Null Then
Label106.Visible = False
Label101.Visible = False
Label177.Visible = False
Label122.Visible = False
Label123.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
in both the open and on load event of the main form (not the subform) but it doesn't help. Any ideas?
(When should code be put on the main form and when on the subform?)

I have a combo box with three columns, the first one is the bound one, the second is text in English, and the third is text in Spanish. Currently when the form is open, both the English and Spanish texts columns are visible. What I would like to do is set up a command button on a different form that will open the form with just the English showing in the combo boxes, and another button for Spanish. I've tried the following code which opens the form, but the combo box is disabled altogether.
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmEditar", acNormal, "", "", , acNormal
DoCmd.SetProperty "niv_gest", acPropertyColumnWidths, "0;1;1"
What am I missing?

I have a combobox [CBreason] that reads from a table to show me why someone is gaining access to the building.
One of the options is "Incident".
When incident is selected I want a textbox [TBIncidentNo] and a button[BIncidentDup] control I made to appear.
I thought that the code:
If Me.CBReason.Value = "Incident" Then
Me.CBIncidentNo.Visible = True
Me.BIncidentDup.Visible = True
Else
Me.CBIncidentNo.Visible = False
Me.BIncidentDup.Visible = False
End If
Placed in the after update action of the CBReason box would sufice but it doesnt work
I'm guessing the value is not recognised fro some reason but i cant work out why. There is no error message or issus, it makes the box dissapear when there is no entry but no change for selecting incident.

I have a form that includes a text box for a password. The passord works fine on a local table, but when I upload the form to the web the password is visible. How can I format the text box so that the text box shows "*******" on the web form?

Several years ago, my colleague and I built some databases (using Access 97, if it matters). We are both responsible for the maintenance of them.
Recently, the hard drive in my PC crashed, and the IT group replaced it. Now, when I open one of the databases, I cannot see all of the Forms, Tables, etc. Thinking the database had been corrupted, I asked my colleague to open it on his machine. Everything was there, and can be viewed from his PC.
All was well until my hard drive was replaced. Has anyone seen this before? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I have a table that records a list of dates using the first of the month in short date format (01/01/2011) and I have the following query
Code:
SELECT Format([dateworked],"mmm yyyy") AS Monthyear, Table_dateworked.dateworked
FROM Table_dateworked;
This query is the source for a combo box so it stores the actual date but the formatted date is visible.An additional complication (if it has to be) is that I have two combo boxes and I want to make sure the finish date is later than the start date, so I have a similar query which only returns later dates than the start date.
What I would like to do instead is to remove the combo box and to get the user to type in the month and the year in the "MMM YYYY" format, default the day to the first of the month and make it invisible.How difficult would this be? Would it be easier to enter the date in short format and change the format using the after update event?

I've got a memo field on a form where the name is TextEXTRA
The Control Source for TextEXTRA is EXTRA.
I've got a box called BoxSHOW (Visible = No)
As I browse through records or find records, I want the box to become visible when there is something in the EXTRA field and become invisible when the EXTRA field is empty. This is what I've tried .....
Private Sub Form_Current()
If EXTRA Is Not Null Then
BoxSHOW.Visible = True
End If
End Sub
I tried many variations on the first line such as ...
Me.EXTRA "EXTRA" TextEXTRA
but I always get errors.

I can do this if there is one record: ie
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
If Me.field1 ="DontShow" Then
Me.cmd_splt.Visible = True
Else
Me.cmd_splt.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
This creates a button that masks my radio button i.e. hides it. However this only works on single forms.
I need it to be different for each record in a continuous form.
I am putting the code in the "OnOpen" property. Maybe that's my problem?
I've also tried conditional formatting but it wont over-ride a transparent text box.

I need to have a subform that shows up smack dab in the middle of my main screen when visible - which is what I want - but only based on a specific value of a control on the main form. Specifically, if a control's value is "See Spreadsheet", I want the subform visible front and center as it contains the link to the server location for that specific record. If the control's value is not "See Spreadsheet", I want the form to be invisible.
My code:
If Me.BudgetsFacultyAccountNumber = "SEE SPREADSHEET" Then
Me.frmMsgBoxUpdateSpreadsheet.Form.Visible = True
Me.BudgetsFacultyServerLocation.Visible = True
Else:
Me.frmMsgBoxUpdateSpreadsheet.Form.Visible = False
Me.BudgetsFacultyServerLocation.Visible = False
End If
The red lines result in an MS VBA error: "Compile error: Method or data member not found."
I've tried referencing that subform a hundred different ways, but I can't get it to work.

My company has a new database that we will use to track PTO (paid time off/vacation), including the submission/approval process. Not everyone should have access to the approval dashboard as that should be restricted to only managers. Everyone will have the same basic form so that they can see their PTO history, hours remaining to be used, etc.
What I want to do is have a button on the form that is visible only if the person is a manager. The button will open the PTO approval form. How can I make a button visible/invisible based on user access levels?

I have tried using a timer event to not show a form until it is fully loaded, to no avail.
Code:
If CurrentProject.AllForms("FONNewEdit").IsLoaded = True Then
Me.Visible = True
Me.TimerInterval = 0
End If
I have tried using the onload, onopen but the form still displays before being fully loaded.

I am having a problem with making a textbox visible on a form if a checkbox is checked on the same form. I have done research on this site and have written the code below, but I am getting a Syntax error, see yellow highlight.
- My checkbox is named: Case is a Readmission from WRCA IP to WRCA IP
- My textbox is named: Date of Current IP Admission (I have defaulted this textbox to not visible).
Here's the code I have written:
Private Sub Case_is_a_Readmission_from_WRCA_IP_to_WRCA_IP_Clic k()
If Case is a Readmission from WRCA IP to WRCA IP =true then
Date of Current IP Admission.visible=true
Else
Date of Current IP Admission.visible=false
[Code] .....

We have a database with one main data entry which stores records in a seperate table. There are several thousand records keyed in using this form. Therefore, alongside the entry we have a search form which allow the user to search for a specific record and display it in the main if he/she needs to edit one.
We have received a request from users for a functionality which allows users to browse all records, using the main form layout, that they have keyed in. I guess what I am asking is: Is there a way to limit the records visible in a form using field on that same form as a limitation (ie. the users name - which is a required key-in)?

I have a Lost/Found property database which we use to keep record of the lost/found property and it is working fine.
As per our organization's policy, we keep the item(s) for up to three months in which if it gets restored to the owner then fair enough otherwise after three months the item(s) can be claimed by the "Finder". But for this very purpose we issue the Finder with a "Claim Receipt" which he/she should bring in when claiming for the item(s) after three months period. Therefore, It's just the right time to upgrade the database to a more professional level.
The database has one table and two forms.
One form (LostFoundForm) is visible to the user in which they enter data, this form has two sections; Item(s) & Finder's details and the second section is about Restoring details.
However the second form (ClaimReceiptForm) is hidden to the users (for manual data entry) and has only one section which is exactly the same as the first form's first section, i.e., Item(s) & Finder's details. This second form takes the data automatically from the first form because the table behind them is same and fields are same (please see attachment). Up to here it's all working fine.
I would like to introduce a Checkbox or a CommandButton in the LostFoundForm which when we click should pull up a msgbox asking "Do you want to print the receipt for this item(s)?" with a Yes/No option. On clicking "No" it should, obviously, settle down but on clicking "Yes" it should print the "corresponding record" from the ClaimReceiptForm.

This might sound simple to everyone, but it won't work for me. I have a text box on my form that holds the current date, there are also other text boxes that hold other information. Here's what I'm trying to do, if the other text boxes are empty then I want the date text box to be invisible. Here's the code I'm trying to use:
Code:If [EquipmentType1]=" " Then[DateSigned].visible = FalseEnd IfEnd Sub
By the way this is triggered from the Form Load event. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Okay then, after much trouble and confusion, I finally realized I need to use an Extended listbox in order to allow for multiple items to be selected from a list on my form (rather than the evil multiple selection combobox!).
However, now I am trying to figure out how to make one listbox (IndustryClassification) only be visible if the item "Industry" is selected in another listbox (TypeOfBusiness). Coding I can use for this in the AfterUpdate event of the listbox?

In my form, I have a combo box with one of three options (cash, check, reimbursement). If the user chooses check, I want a text box to become visible, so the user may input the check number.
I thought I could use another invisible text box to store the value of the combo box and then in the code put:
Private Sub Text64_AfterUpdate()
If Text64 = "Check" Then
Me.Check1.Visible = True
Else
Me.Check1.Visible = Refresh
End If
Me.Refresh
End Sub
Text64 is holding the value of the combo box
Check1 is the text box where I want the user to put the check number.
Please help. Thanks

Hello. In my table there is a checkbox column. This box is checked on a form which feeds the table. I run reports from queries which contain both checked results as well as unchecked results. Is it possible for on the report, for the text (the field name, not the checkbox) to only appear when the box is checked? I hope I'm explaining this properly. I want the checkbox title to only appear on the report when the box is checked, otherwise I don't want it visible.
Thanks for your help.
