In that form I would like to have different check-boxes (three of them), representing actions done that day.
Let's say each form represents a contact, and I need check-boxes for:
- Called
- E-mailed
- Visited
This is something I am now able to do. But.... I would like these check-boxes to be cleared automatically the next day.
So when the database is opened the next day, these check-boxes start unchecked.
And I would also like that as soon I check a check-box on a certain day, there is an entry for that action and date is being entered in the record of that contact, so I am able to check later on what day, what action was performed.
I have made a form with a subform to search for existing records based on inputting a postcode then selecting the relevant address from the subform which then fills the form with details of that chosen record ready to issue a further package linked to that original record.
To prevent errors and confusion by the users I coded the following:
Private Sub CmdFindAddress_Click() If IsNull(Me.TxtPostcode) Then MsgBox "You need a Postcode to use this button. Please type one in." Me.TxtPostcode.SetFocus
[Code] ....
'Where the postcode entered does not exist in records or if there is a mistake typing in the postcode, below will remove residual record details from previous postcode ready for a new postcode search:
For Each ctlCurr In Me.Controls If ctlCurr.Tag = "clear" Then ctlCurr = Null End If Next ctlCurr Me.Refresh End Sub .........
The problem is that if I test the system by inputting a postcode where I know there are no records, the CtlCurr is highlighted and the error message is:
Compile error: variable not defined ..........
This does not happen if I have already selected a postcode so the record fields are filled and then change the postcode - so the record fields are cleared.
Previously, entering a postcode which did not match existing records generated the "there are no records...." error message instead. How do I define CtlCurr?
I'm on my way on creating a simple Database for a company. This database contains several tables, one of the tables will record information about the training that had been completed by each employee. There are about ten sections of training that should be completed.
For instance, I have two tables called 'Development' and 'CSA_Lisence'. 'Development' is the table that record the information about training which containing ten checkboxes (which represent ten sections of training) and CSA_Lisence will be automatically requeried when all of the checkboxes on Development are fully checked.
Here's the step I've been worked on :
First, I made a function called 'CheckCompletion' to ensure whether all the checkboxes are checked :
Code: Public Function CheckCompletion() As Boolean Dim blnComplete As Boolean Dim strCompletionSummary As String strCompletionSummary = Basic_Inspection & Certifying_Staff & Safety_Management_System & Regulation_Part_145 & Part_M & EWIS & Fuel_Tank_Safety_Level_2 & Dangerous_Goods & Human_Factor & Basic_Supervisory_Training
[Code] ....
Second, I made a function called 'UpdateEmployee' to handles if all boxes are checked :
Code: Public Function UpdateEmployee() Dim emp_numb As Long Dim emp_name As Long Dim strsql As String emp_numb = [Forms]![development].[employee_number].Value
[Code] ....
Then, I put this code on every checkbox's after update event (example only) :
Code: Private Sub Basic_Inspection_AfterUpdate() Call UpdateEmployee End Sub
The problem is, nothing happened with the tables. However, when I managed to remove the 'If checkCompletion' condition, it worked and the 'CSA_Lisence' is requeried, but I will have ten multiple records with same contents (I just need one record per employee). I guess there's something wrong or missed in my code. Or i need to remove something?
How do you create a form that will query a list from a table, and then separate each invidivual entry from the query into its own checkbox?
Example:
*run query or something similar, and 3 items are brought up*
Tracking Form 00001:
Item1 [x] Item2 [x] Item3 [x]
Each individual item in the query might change, so I want to keep it flexible. Once all of the checkbox options are organized and put onto that section of the form, I want to append all of the values that were checked off into a field on another table. So for example let's say the person inputting the form checked off item1 and item3, the field on the table linked to it would now have field1="item1, item3".
Is there a way to do this without a lot of coding, possibly just using the menu-driven interfaces and maybe a coded query? I am not that familiar with Access so any help is appreciated.
The user checks the IsSelected (bound to a checkbox) for the items required for further processing, does the processing and starts over. The function of the column IsSelected is to hold the boolean signifying whether or not to process the record, and to bind to the checkbox in the form.
How to retain the user interface (i.,e. selecting using one or more checkboxes) if the database is to be used by more than one user?
I have a form register with student names and three columns with checkboxes showing whether they were present, absent or late. The form runs an append query that records the data into a historical table, however on submission the checkboxes remain ticked. way to clear the checkboxes once the data has been submitted?
I wish to filter the records in a listbox by using checkboxes.
The listbox (list1) and the checkboxes are in the same form (form1)
The listbox displays the records from a query (query1) related to a single table (table1).
Each record (assuming a list of videos) has a field called "Typology". The "video typologies" are: Movie, Documentary, Animation. So the table1 has a column called "Typology" which displays one of the three typology in simple text.
When entering a new record (in a specific form) user can choose the typology selecting an option in a combobox. The combobox is a "value list" one and I wrote the typologies in the "row origin" line: "Movie";"Documentary";"Animation"
So we have a single column in simple text for all the typologies, but limited choiches.
So far everything is working well.
Now I wish to filter the records in the listbox by typology. Each typology should be related to a checkbox, so when I check a checkbox then the listbox returns only the records form a specific typology. Also, I wish to check more then one checkbox in order to display records from multiple typologies rather than one.
I've already made a button which resets the form, displaying once again all the records and eventually unchecking all the checkboxes.
About option buttons: I've managed filtering the listbox results using option buttons in a frame (option group?) and it works fine, but in this way I can choose only one typology at a time (and the typology field in the tabel1 of course is not simple text, but numeric: 1=Movie, 2=Documentary etc).
I thought this could be solved using the click event on each checkbox:
-If the checkbox "Movie" is checked then the listbox shows only the records which have the text "Movie" in the Typology field. Else, show all the records. -If the checkbox "Documentary" is checked then the listbox shows only the records which have the text "Documentary" in the Typology field. Etc......
I have 6 different check boxes that I want to attached to one button. If a check box is marked I want a specific form that is related to that checkbox to open when clicking the OnClick button.
I am using my form to add job descriptions and if the user checks the check box for current, it adds the description to the table as the current job description. I need to clear the check box for the next entry but the box retains the choice so when the user selects another description, the form saves it as current even if the box shows no check in the box. I tried the code below, but that only changes the state of the box, but not the reality of the state of the box.
I have a form where you can select four different options: Health, Dental, Vision, and COBRA, with a button to run a census. Right now, the button runs a DoCMD.OpenReport to open a report named "Census" where there are four text boxes, "Health Coverage Type" "Dental Coverage Type" "Vision Coverage Type" and "COBRA Coverage Type". I want the user to be able to select a checkbox, then filter the report to only enable the text boxes of the corresponding names.
So if someone selects Health & Dental, I want the report to run with the "Health Coverage Type" and "Dental Coverage Type" textboxes enabled/visible, but the other two to be blank.
I have a table tblMessages, with a yes/no column called Available I have a form with three checkboxes chk1, chk2, and chk3 the when i click chk1 the other two check should be checked which this code seems to do but what it is not doing is going to the table and selecting the data where the ID is 2. what am i missing here?
Private Sub chk1_Click() Dim strSQL As String 'Holds the SQL statement for this command only. If chk1 = True Then chk2 = True chk3 = True strSQL = "UPDATE'[Available]' FROM 'tblMessages' WHERE '[ID]'= 2" Else chk2 = False chk3 = False strSQL = "UPDATE '[Available]' FROM 'tblMessages' WHERE '[ID]'=2" End If Me.Requery End Sub
I'm completely new to Access and would greatly appreciate your help in this problem.
I have a form name frmDataEntry with 10 fields, which enters data through an append query in Access. Firstly I was wondering whether I could do mutiple data entries, say 5 different entries of 10 fields each at the same time? Secondly, I wanted the form to clear all the entries after the user has submitted the data(I have made a submit button for this). I would greatly appreciate it if you could help me overcome these problems.
Im doing an attendance in Access database , i have a Staff table and AttendanceMain table for keep all the staff attendance ...
I also created a query to append the data into AttendanceMain table ... the problem is , I always reuse the staff name , so i created a Staff form , but everytime i open the staff form the previous record still there , anyway to clear the "Tick Box" in staff table and without affecting the name ?(Name also is a record in row by row)
I've got a field in a table that is a multiple drop-down list. In the form, I don't want it to be a drop down list, but I want the options in the drop down list to be checkboxes instead (not within a drop down).
From a dropdown field in the form it's currently possible to choose a geographical region for which to generate a report. The data populating this dropdown is pulled in from a Value List as follows:
" ";"*";1;2;3;4;5;6;7;8;9;10;11;12;13;EU;WD
I now need the ability to choose various different regions simultaneously which is not possible with the current method. I've looked into a nested continuous form and a multi-select combo box or list box, but none of these are as user friendly as my preferred method.
What I would like is 15 checkboxes plus a 16th to select/unselect all. When any of these checkboxes is checked, I need to create something like a dynamic value string or temporary table to hold the list of chosen regions until the generate button is clicked at which point the data is used to generate the report and cleared. I also need a piece of code to check/uncheck all the boxes.
Using Access 2013.I have a Search Form with a Run Query button. I would like to add a button that clears the criteria entered into the search text boxes. Right now to change the criteria I have to manually delete everything entered, closed the current query it had open then go from there. I have tried using the command button wizard, form operations, then refresh form data. When I click that button a window pops up "The command or action 'refresh' isnt available right now".Is this not the correct way to set up what I need? What other options should I look into for setting this up?
I'm having trouble getting my form to be "blank" except for the labels upon loading. I've tried putting in some code "on load" but it doesn't clear everything. I haven't had this trouble on some of my other db's, the only difference here is it's a switchboard. I don't know if that matters.
In creating a form with checkboxes created using the "option group" control type,
I am trying to find a way to clear all the checkbox options in an option group after having checked an option. For instance, if the user checks one of the options but then decides they actually want to skip that question altogether and leave it blank - is there a way to clear all options, or reset the question?
I am currently working on a main form in Access 2010 which includes quiet a lot of fields, therefore i choose to create parts of it (which are as well optional, as they do not apply to all records) as different forms which i linked to the "mother" form afterwards through a checkbox by using the following code:
Private Sub chkMajor2_Click() Dim strformname As String If Me.chkMajor2 = True Then strformname = "Major 2" DoCmd.OpenForm strformname, acNormal End If
[code]....
to make the next form visible for selection after filling in the current one...something like an "add more.." field actually, which i choose to represent as checkbox.The issue that i encounter is that when i click the "Add New" button in the main form, it doesn't clear also the fields in the linked forms. Is it possible to do that with a VBA code? Or how should i proceed?
The current code that i have for the button is:
Private Sub cmdNew_Click() DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec End Sub
I have a timesheet form that pulls from a query that pulls from a table I want to clear my daily charges and reset back to the default value of 0 when my form opens ...
I have a tabular form that is based on a select statement (Query) in the source property. It filters & sorts from this select statement. permanently
I have just added a Me.Filter = "[Form1].[InDate] = #" & MyValue & "# " Me.OrderBy = "Indate DESC"
This all works fine, filters & sorts on the existing results.However this new filter & sort seems to remain no matter what I do.I have used every variation one me.filter ="" with Me.FilterOn = True, False & every combination.
Me.Filter="" & Me.FilterOn = False does initially seem to clear the lsit to show all records but as soon as type anything that filters the Form on the original, existing underlying select statement the extra Filter Property & Sort properties are occupied with the last filter/sort.
I have manually deleted any remaining Filter Or Sort properties direct from design view, saved, compacted & saved again.Once I use the new me.filter it will always returned as soon an any filter on the form is applied.I definately am not setting it again anywhere. Is there something better than me.filter ="", seen clearallfilters mentioned but not sure if this would apply just to the current form but reluctant to use a blanket clear as I do have quite a lot of other things going on.
Not sure when but many months (If not years) ago my form source stopped being a query and started using the query (sql) direct from the source property.I have left it this way as not sure if any consequence of moving back but don't remember how or how it happened. What are the pros cons of using a separate query.
I have a search form that's slightly modified search form modeled after the one available here on this site. It's a main form with a list box. I use the listbox to narrow down the results I want from the search function.
The search details are shown in a sub form that contains sub-sub forms
As seen in the code below, I am using the listbox to set a filter on the subform . Works famously until I search for something that does not exist in the database. I then receive runtime error 3075.
I believe it's related to the way I'm showing the details in the subform (by enabling a filter). If there is no record in the database that match the search criteria, I don't want any error messages or pop-ups and preferably would like the listbox to be blank.
Attached a screenshot of my form. red = main form green = subform blue = sub-subforms tan = obscuring the search results
