I have created a form with combo box which shows certain fields I selected. By clicking that I want to open a NEW form which has all the fields so that I can edit the record.
View RepliesI've got a form with a drop down combo box with two columns. When you hit the down arrow it shows both columns, but when you click a choice, it only shows the data in the first column. How do I make it show both columns after it has been chosen? First col is First Name, second col is Last Name.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a totals query that shows results in a chart. It takes a parameter to limit results, by a combobox in a form.
Parameter in the query includes the OR "*" expression, in case someone wants to get the results unfiltered.
The Combobox in the form, has an AfteUpdate event that opens the chart (form) every time its value changes, by the [DoCmd.OpenForm "ChartForm" , acNormal] expression.
I don't know how to make it open the ChartForm when no parameter is selected in the combobox.
How you could display a few selected fields in different rows within the same table.
SO as an example
Machine_No Board_No Board_Mode Board_Data
1 1 xxx xxxx
1 2 yyy ssss
1 3 ttt wwww
2 1 323 dddd
2 2 eee qqqq
2 3 rrr pppp
Based on which Machine_No i pick, i would like to display it's Board_Mode and Board_Data for all Board_No values (1,2,3)
i will be able to display this on the same form. (say machine_no = 1)
Board_Mode Board_data
1 xxx xxxx
2 yyy ssss
3 ttt wwww
I have a form that is filter based on a combo box. I would like to add another filter for date. but the code I'm using for the first combo box doesn't work for date.
the code is:
Sub SetFilter()
Dim LSQL As String
LSQL = "select * from Preventive_Q_View"
LSQL = LSQL & " where Item_Name = '" & Combo206 & "'"
Form_Preventive_View.RecordSource = LSQL
End Sub
How do I modify this code to work with the date combo box? Also, is there a way to get both filters to work together, as in filter based on the first combo OR the second combo, OR both?
I have built a form that holds details of training records. What I want is when a drop down is selected in the main form, that it will populate some of the fields in the subform. I have this working at the moment, that for example, when a certain course is selected, that their modules will appear in the subform. Where my problem arises is that I have a relationship between two tables that I want to appear on the subform, so that details can be filled in on the subform against the list of modules that automatically appear.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a calculated field that shows the sum of two other fields on the same form. I've got as far as making the expression work but it doesn't quite do what I want. I need the calculated field to update when any one of the reference fields are updated (i.e. currently it only updates once all the fields in the expression are updated).
How to I change the form so that the calculated field updates based on current values (including any fields that contain no value)?
Anybody able to help me with this. I think there should be a simple solution to it, but it eludes me at the moment. Basically, I have created a form in MsAccess with alot of vb script on it, but
now I realise that I have to add more fields to the source table.
If I insert a new unbound text box onto the form, how do i bind it to
the new field in the source table. is there a formula that I should
use? When I look at the dropdown in the control source property, it
only gives me the fields that were in existense at the time the form
was created?
your help appreciated
thanks
I have several comboboxes (6) on my form.How to populate these comboboxes with values depending on selected value in previous combobox.
Example.Lets say that you select value "Audi" in combobox 1, then available values in combobox 2 should be "A4","A6","TT" etc. and if you selected "BMW" in combobox 1, then available values in combobox 2 should be "3-series", "5-series" etc...
I have a bound form which shows list of items in the stock. When i click on a button it should open another form which shows the details of item which we choose from the first form.the code which i have in click event of the form is :
Code:
Dim strCrit As String
strCrit = "PkID=" & Me.RadStocks
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmIssueRadItems", , , strCrit
It works sometimes but most of the time it gives error saying " syntax error(missing operator) in query expression 'PkID=Airmux 200E DC".
I have a form (PostProductionForm) which is used to input data about finished goods which come off a production line. There are three possible outcomes which can occur after the production: Passed, Reprocessed, Failed and the numbers for these are entered in 3 text boxes on the form (QtyReprocessedTxt, QtyFailedTxt, QtyPassedTxt).
These text boxes are auto populated with a 0 from the table (PostProductionTbl) so there aren't blanks.
What I am trying to do is use an IF function (I think) which says that if Quantity Reprocessed is equal to zero when the submit button is pressed, the "Reason for reprocessing" combo (RPReasonCombo) must have something selected (i.e. can't be blank) or it won't go to a new record.

I have a form that has four combo boxes on it that enable the user to select entrants in a golf tournament for tee off times and tee. (I have attached part of this database to this post) It all works fine but after selecting the first player in the first combo box and then selecting the second combo player I would like the player selected previously not to show up. Is this possible or do I have to rethink the way players are selected.

How do I go about emailing a report to a Client selected from a combo box on a form?
View 3 Replies View RelatedAny way, I have created a table "accountstbl" to which i have AccountsID, Accountnumber, Accountname, Accountaddress, Accountcontact fields.
My question is i created a form with a combo box linking it to the accountstbl and Accountname field. When i click on the combo box it lists all my Accountnames from the accountstbl which i want but i want to click on an account name and once selected it will show a report of the selected name.
Reading through lengthy pages there is reference to event procedures but this is code which i do not know.
Simples is me select name from combo box and voila you have a report of your selected account name.
I am new to access i have a problem which is i have made a form which contains a subform and a read only subreport, what i want is the ability to select a record in read only subreport as in the picture attached and make a button that when i press on it, it should copy the values of the itemsID field, Packing field, ContainerNo field and origin field from the selected record and then paste them in the subform below.
Also i want to add more then one item, so the when i press on another record it should paste the values below the first record.
I created a form that has a drop down menu to select a name. I attempted to set it up so that once a name is selected, another form is opened with that person's information. I was able to get it set up so that the first form closes and the second form comes up, but I can't get it to filter the name. I tried using SetTempVar and then SearchForRecord, but got nothing. I tried using OpenForm and Where Condition equals the search, but just got the automation error. It is currently set up using SetTempVer, OpenForm, SearchForRecord.
View 3 Replies View RelatedVery suddenly today, when I'd done seemingly nothing, all of the records from my form that I'd built from a blank form disappeared, with the exception of the first record. When I try to just close everything down, nothing changes. When I put in a new record to the form, however, it's saved in the table. But when I save and close, the form goes back to only having the first record! This is very annoying, for easily perceivable reasons. I even tried creating the form from scratch, to see if it's some residual SQL update code acting funny, and nothing changed! It seems to work if I select a table and just create a form, though. It doesn't even work when it's a splitform and whatnot.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have made an unbound check box, named "myckeck" in a form which shows data from a table in tabular layout.
1- When I check one check box, all check boxes are checked. How can I solve that? I mean I want to check or clear check boxes independently.
2- I made a text box, named "jobdate" to sow todays date automatically upon checking a check box.
Code:
Private sub mycheck_afterupdate()
jobdate = date
End
But this is not working and checking a check box does not make anything to happen.
3- Then I made this expression in the default value of "jobdate" properties:
iif( mycheck = true, date(), null)
This not working either.
I have a Combo Box bound which gets its values from a table (T_Users).
The Combo Box displays the Users 'Initials' [Column 1], but the Bound Column [Column 2] is that of the Users 'ID' (which is used when a record is edited or a new record added).
What I want to be able to do is when the user clicks the Combo Box, and the drop down list 'drops down' the options, I want them to not only see the 'Initials' but also selected other columns - BUT - when the option is selected I just want the 'Initials' to be displayed in the Combo Box.
Code:

Hello,
I suspect this is probably rather easy, but I've not been able to figure it out:
I am using a combo to select a record in a form. This works.
The problem is: When I navigate through the records in the form, the combo box does not "update". I need to be able to change the record displayed in the combo box as the record in the form changes.
Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance for assistance.
hi
when a value is selected in a combo box then values shud be set to the textboxes in the same form
plz let me know hw to do it.
Please reply ASAP
thnx
I have a Table with 6 fields, 2 are named Initial and Surname. Is it at all possible to have a combo box on a form with these to fields "joined" with the alphabetical order on the Surname. I understand that using a query will not work as the result is based on an expression
View 11 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a form using a combo box to populate multiple fields and tables.
I've created a text field to display the added information using this format:
=Comboboxname.Column(x)
in the text box control source field, and this works for display purposes.However, I need it to populate this data into a field on a table.
For example:
My combo box looks up data that has 2 columns, Part Number and Description.
The control source for the combo box is "Part Number". And that populates the part number in the "Main" table no problem.
The text box I created using the above format in the control source populates the field in the form, but not the "Main" table.
Is there a way for the other (description) field to also populate the "Main" table as well?
I need to know when:
* a new record has been created
* data on a record has been changed
Does the On Dirty event capture this, or can I just use the forms On Change event?
