Forms :: Blank Data Entry Page But With A Populated Field?
Jun 19, 2013
I have a form, combo box selection, when i make a selection, all the info is good on all my tabs, which holds the subform.My issue is, on one of the subform, it's a data entry form, where I want it to be on a new record page. instead it list all records. I want my users to see a blank page, but have one field populated. is this possible?
1) blank data entry page, but with a populated field?When a CU Name is selected,I want the (Enter Note) tab to go to a data entry or last page or new page.I have tried putting it to data entry form, but the CU Number will not populate.

I have a combo box that pulls account name data from tblAcctInfo. the combo box has an OnChange event which updates a textbox, txtAcctAddr.
when i have a new account that i would like to be listed in the combo box, i use a form, frmAcctAdd, to add a record to tblAcctInfo.
what i would like to do, is:
1) when i type a new value in the combo box that isn't in the list, have that string value pre-populate in the frmAcctAdd.
2) when i have added the new account info into frmAcctAdd and then saved the record, i would like the new value to pre-populate in the combo box, with the txtAcctAddr textbox also updated via the OnChange event (or maybe a different event is more appropriate?).
I have created a long version of this which requires a lot more user interaction (1-user typing in a new value into the combo box, 2-user RE-typing the SAME value into a data entry form, frmAcctAdd, 3-user saving the new record, 4-user re-clicking the combo box and selecting the newly added value) but i am trying to streamline the data entry with auto-populated fields.

I have one-page forms which print a second page, blank except for a block of grey shading at the top. I have tried moving the content of the form up but that doesn't eliminate the second page. If I look at print preview, every second page of the entire database shows up as blank, regardless of where that happens to appear in the record.

I have a DAP that many users have access to.When opened the Dropdown is blank on some peoples and populated on others. Is there some setting that can cause this. I have checked to make sure that they have the allow ActiveX Controls to run files on this computer checked. Any other setting that may cause this? Thanks.

I have searched the forum and asked some of my colleagues about this and I do not seem to be getting anywhere. :(
What I need is to be able to use a (blank, ie showing no current records) form to enter data into a new record.
I have Tables A and B in a 1-to-many relationship and I need to be able to bring up a blank form which has:
1. a combo box, allowing me to select the relevant record from the parent (table A), and ...
2. blank fields (from the child - table B) to fill in with new data.
I can set this up using a standard setup, where all records are shown, but this is confusing to a dumb user, who really only wants to see relevant boxes for them to fill in without the distractions of data in fields they are not concerned with or with other records they do not want to know about.
Can anyone help? :)

I an trying to create a data entry form (IndividualsEntryFm) to input data for fields such as (First Name),(Birthdate) etc., these to be saved to the (IndividualsTbl)
I also have another table (NamesTbl) which has family names etc. The two tables are linked by a (MainID) field. I want a combo box on the individualsEntryFm so that I can select the family name. Then I wish the empty fields for the IndividualsTbl to be available to enter data.When I press the save button I then want this data saved, together with the MainID from the combo box to the IndividualsTbl.
I have set the IndividualsTbl with a (PersonID) field as an auto number each individual therefore has a unique PersonID but may well share the MainID. I'm trying to link many people to the same address.

How can I get the value from a field in one table (in the sub form) to copy/insert into a field in another table (in the main form) when adding a new record?The main form and sub form are linked using parent/child linking, and the sub form is in a tab.I have table A (Visit Dates) in the main form which is used to record the date of a visit to a church. Table B (Quarters and Peals) is used to record an event that took place at that church during that visit. Note that not all visits in table A require a record to be created in table B - but half or more do.
In tables A and B I have a field called "QuarterOrPealID" and these are both primary keys, though the field in table B is set to 'no duplicates' and in table A it's set to 'duplicates allowed', as table A has its own auto number/pk. They are both linked in the relationships.
So, when I add a new record to table A using the main form, I might then need to click on the tab in the sub form to create a new record in table B, which has to be linked to the same record in table A. When the "QuarterOrPealID" auto number/pk is generated in the sub form (table B), I need that value to update to the "QuarterOrPealID" field of the main form (table A), so that when I'm viewing these records the form pulls all the information nicely together.

I have a main form where the user chooses a BoxID. There is a subform on this main form that has a relationship between BoxID on the main form and subform. The users are entering data in the subform and when they have entered 10 lines of info I have a message that tells them to start a new box (I could not work out how to do it any other way as I lack VB skills). The user closes the form or clicks add new record to create a new box. If I view the previous record there should only be 10 lines of information in the subform but there are 11 as it takes the blank line as a new record....

I have created a form that searches through one of my tables, via a query, it then automatically creates a report from that query.
I want to add an option into the combo box's that is blank.
Currently if you wanted to choose by 'fault category' but accidently click on 'failure analysis', it will take the top value of the combo as the entry, you can't then blank 'failure analysis'.
Each combo box gets its information from an independent table.
The only think I figured out what adding the refresh button which just closes then reopens the form so all the fields go blank.

I think I have just finished designing my database and I tried to test it and I couldn't enter any new records as it says "Can't enter data into blank field on "one" side of outer join" whenever I try and enter info and I don't know much SQL to work out what has happened. It probably causes this too but I also cannot select check boxes.
The form where I try and enter the info is called Crisis_support_workers v3. I have attached my database so you can look at what I have done.

I have created a basic Volunteer Events and Hours Volunteered tracking database.
I created a form Volunteer Hours to allow an end user to use that form to record the volunteer and hours volunteered on a specific Event. There are two tables needed in the form Volunteer Hours to be used for the end users to record the Event, Volunteer, Date and Hours. The form has drill down fields from two tables:
Table A - Volunteer Events (event name, date, descr, owner, co-owner, loc, status)
Table B - Volunteers (name, co, div, emp#,title)
I want to be able to select the Volunteer Event and have the event date automatically populate in the Volunteer Hours form date field when the Event is selected to eliminate the end user from having to enter the date in.
Also; I would like to be able to add more than one volunteer at a time to an event on the form, this would also decrease the data entry time.
Are one or both of these things possible?

I have a number of tables in my database, and they're linked in with a form. I'd like to have a field in a form that's populated automatically based on what's inputted in a different field.For example, I've got one table with names and descriptions on widgets (name in column A, description in column B).
Widget 1 This widget is blue
Widget 2 This widget is green
Widget 3 This widget is yellow
When I'm in my form, I want when I select Widget 1 to have the corresponding text (This widget is blue) appear in a field below.

I am going round in circles here; I have a form which has certain text fields that need to be populated before a user can click a command button named 'Record Movement' that opens up another form. What I want to do is disable the 'Record Movement' button until these fields are populated. I am using Access 2010.

I have a problem which occasionally surfaces.
When trying to use an edit form nothing comes up but a blank page. No fields, nothing. The database is split and when I open it. It shows as read only. The database is only used by myself and another and the other is not accessing it. I've tried closing and opening the database and also compacting and repairing but there is no difference to the particular form.
the problem is cleared up the next day when the db is accessed again.
All other forms are ok to use, and there are now 2 forms which this happens to. Has anyone experienced or seen something similar?

I have a form that users will use to add new records (customers).
There is a field named VAT_Registration_no
First of all i want some code to check for duplicates in that field only,before entering the next field.If the record exists i want to show a msgbox and set focus to the vat_registration_no field. Also I want the same thing to happen if the vat_registration_no field is empty.here is what i have tried:
Private Sub VAT_registration_no_AfterUpdate()
Dim btest As Boolean
If VAT_registration_no = "" Or IsNull(Me.VAT_registration_no) Then
MsgBox "Please enter a Vat Registration No.", vbOKOnly, "error"
Me.VAT_registration_no.SetFocus
Else
btest = True
End If
End Sub
and to all other fields:
Private Sub textfield_Enter()
If Not btest Then
Me.textfield.SetFocus
End If
End Sub
If I just press enter to go straight to the second field I dont get a msg. If I write something and delete it and press enter i get the msg but when I press ok the cursor goes to the next field. I want it to go to the vat_registration_no field again. And I also want this to happen even if dont write something and then delete it.

I have a complicated report in which there is a main report which contains other reports within it. One of these reports (call it "Number Six") within the main report has several subreports. Within this report, I can successfully cancel the subreports so that they do not print if the data does not match the right criteria. I use VBA code to cancel the Number Six report if none of the subreports will be printing. Nothing then appears on this individual report. All I get is a blank page which makes sense since I've shrunk all of the subreports.
When the main report prints, the Number Five report prints, there is a blank page for the Number Six report and then the Number Seven report prints. How do I get the main report to not print that blank page for the Number Six report? When the Number Six report will result in a blank page, I want the Number Five report to print followed by the Number Seven report. I've tried using "No" in the main report for the Enabled option for Number Six but the blank page still shows up. I am not forcing any page breaks either.

I am trying to save specific data from a data entry form to a specific depending on what the user selects from a dropdown/combo box.
So if the user selects "test company from the combo box, that data (from that form) will save to the Test company data table.

My aim is to have my forms open to a new record, which I have done, but if my users need to then update or edit data in previous entries, they can click a button that allows this.
My thoughts were to add a button, then put in code so that the necessary properties changed the form from displaying a new record or records entered since opening it, to showing all records in the associated table....
As an example there is a table for purchase orders. When clicking on this from the main menu form, it opens up the purchase order form to create a brand new PO. At times though, we will need to revisit an order to attach a copy of an invoice, or update the cost of whatever was purchased.

My db has multiple linked tables. As time passes and work on a project continues data needs to be added to a separate table that is linked to the first table to be populated.
i.e., Initial design data is entered first, when drilling is complete more data is added to a linked table, when drilling is surveyed yet more data is added to the second table.
What I want to be able to do is to query for a particular set of existing design data, display this on a form and on the same line enable data entry to other fields from other tables which are linked to the existing design data.
