Forms :: Design Form That Looks Very Similar To Either Split Form Or Subform

Jun 2, 2014

Basically I need to design form that looks very similar to either Split Form or Subform. I have attached a print screen of what I roughly need. The form is split into two parts. In the first/top part there are some List Box/Date fields that act as filters to the bottom form, so the bottom form displays only records that match values in red. The second part of the top form has some field that require input from user and then these records are added to the bottom form. I was trying to use both Split Form and Subform and none of it is working,I have attached an example of database and this form would be based on data from Query1.

Forms :: Setting Focus To Control On Single Form Side Of Split Form

Jun 24, 2013

When I right click a row on the data sheet side of a split form an select "New Record" I want the curser to go to the first field on the single record side. I've placed this in the OnCurrent but it did no good.

Code:

If Me.NewRecord Then
Me!Descrfiption.SetFocus.
End If

Any way to set the focus to the single form Side of a split form?

General :: Split Form And Subform Columns Not Saving

Oct 25, 2013

For some reason when I change the order around of the columns in a split form or subform 90% of the time it wont save (right click save, file save, etc..) and have to constantly redo it until it finally works. Am I missing something obvious as to why this is happening?

Subform Design/form View ??

Sep 13, 2005

I created a subform on one of my forms and in design view it looks all nice with a nice background and stuff. But in the form view it looks just like a regular datagrid. I'd like it to look like it does in design view. Any idea how?

thanks,

Forms :: Applying Sort And Filter In Form Results In Design Changes To Form

Dec 27, 2014

When I'm applying a sort and filter in a form, Access is updating the Filter and Order By properties of the form, so that it is possible to re-use in conjunction with Filter on Load and Order By on Load properties. However, a consequence of this is that when the form is closed, it prompts the user whether they want to save the design of the form. I want to circumvent this as I don't want to re-use the sort and filter and I don't want to be prompted to save the design of the form.

Although I can circumvent this by closing the form using a method that doesn't prompt for saving, the additional complication here is that the form in question is in the Navigation subform of a Navigation Control. Hence when I click on a another Navigation button, it (not me) closes my current form and hence prompts me whether I want to save the design of the form (if I have been sorting and/or filtering). I can't see how to circumvent this and the prompting is resulting in unacceptable usability.

Forms :: Split Form In Navigation Form

Jun 4, 2015

I have a bunch of forms which have a split form layout, datasheet area to the bottom of the forms. I'm wanting to group all these split forms onto a "Navigation" form but when I click the tab for each form to be displayed in the subform area the datasheet split is now missing and all I get is a "Single" form view of what is a split form. How can I get these split forms to view properly in the subform area of the navigation form, I guess there's a property setting but I can't see it?

Forms :: Access 2010 - Form Shows Similar Match In 1 Table - Alter Another Table?

Dec 16, 2014

I have two tables (Access 2010). One with a list of names (List1) and another with a very similar list of names (List2), but they differ in very small ways. For example, List1 might have John Smith, and List2 would have Smith, John L.; and Smith, John. List2 also has a unique ID associated with these names that I need to append to List1.

I need to design a form that will allow me to look up names in List1, and have it return all names that are similar in List2. I then need to be able to choose with record in List2 matches with the List1 entry (based on a few other columns in List2, such as birth date) and have the form add that unique ID to the List1 record.

PS: I am using Access 2010

Forms :: Two Split Views On The Same Form?

Jan 16, 2015

Is it possible (haven't found a way yet) to have two "split subforms" on a parent form side-by-side? When I try the multiple rows portion of the split view I created as a subform doesn't appear?

Want to have a form when I have search/filter/select record for table 1 (on the left) and table 2 (on the right) with a means in between to create a relationship which has a few parameters.

Forms :: Show All Records On Split Form?

Feb 21, 2014

I created a split form. My main form is just a form, based off of tblBlotter. The subform is based off a query, which is the based off the same tblBlotter. (Not sure if this is proper - maybe I just need the table?)

I have a link master and link child field set to ID. When I open the form "subBlotterHistory", it opens and shows as a new record only. I want it to show ALL records on the query subform and be able to scroll up, down and edit.

Attached is a sample w bogus data.

When I select a row and press the down arrow nothing happens.

I have the navigation buttons set to no because of the issues I'm having with them.

Forms :: Using Split Form With Datasheet - Find Not Working

Nov 9, 2013

I'm using a split form with the datasheet on the left.

When I use the 'Find' in the Navigation buttons at the bottom of the form, it refuse to find text in a particular text box.

The text box is a memo field and is enabled.

Example:

I have text in the memo field which is a title of an episode - "The Outcast."

When I start typing "the" it finds this text in the memo field. But when I type the entire title it the finds the text in another field. ie "out."

I've tried the 3 different Search setting in options. When I use the Find command from the ribbon it work ok as long as I select the text box to search in first.

Forms :: Hide Columns On Datasheet Of Split Form

Jun 3, 2015

I am pretty new to VBA and I am having the same problem of hiding and un-hiding columns on a datasheet of a split form. I am building a system that will be used in front of customer and therefore wish to hide columns that contain cost sensitive data. The same forms need to be able to show the Sales Rep the hidden columns simply by ticking a box. Basically a toggle on and off of hidden columns.

I have been playing around with the code below (which i found in another forum) to hide the Field called COO when I click the tick box called chkHIdeFields check box. This works on a Single form but not on a datasheet of a split form.

Private Sub chkHideFields_Click()
' Note: vbTrue = -1
If Me.chkHideFields = vbTrue Then
Me.COO.Visible = True
Else: Me.COO.Visible = False
End If
End Sub

I have been able to hide the column of my split form by using the ColumnHidden property of the On Load event just as a proof of concept that the ColumnHidden property actually works to hide a column, which it does. This is the code that im using to hide the column called COO.

Me.COO.ColumnHidden = True

However if I then set it to = False and then close and open the form, it doesn't unhide the column. the only way I can unhide the column is to do it from the Form view via the un-hide dialogue pop up box.

I have two issues here, the first one is getting the form to recognize when to hide and when to show the column of the datasheet on the split form and the second is to get the code to for the check box method.

Lastly once I get it working for 1 field I need to be able to define a list of 7 or 8 other fields all at the same time.

Forms :: Display Images On A Form In A Split Database

Jan 2, 2015

Am trying to display images on a form in a split database. I add the attachment field to the associated form's table and add the attachment control to the form but cannot get the image(s) to display on the form (the control remains blank). I can add the image(s) in table view (and display them) but double clicking on the form control also does nothing.

I think I must be doing at least the basics correctly as if I try the same thing to an earlier, non-split version of the database, all works as expected.Are there additional steps required to do this thing in a split database?

Forms :: Position Of Columns In Table Below A Split Form

Dec 3, 2013

I've created several Split forms that have the data input fields in the form with the relevant query datasheet shown below. As you tab through the form fields, the various cells in the datasheet are highlighted and move across the data row (as one would expect!). I want to put a particular field / Column at the start of the datasheet so that it's always available for view, but it seeme that what ever I do the column ends up back at the very far end of the data row!

I've sussed out the "Freeze Fields" facility which will keep the first column visable whichever cell is highlighted across the data row.

The column I want as the first column currently sits at the far end of the data row. So far I have dragged the row to the first column position; I've arranged the Query driving the form so that the column is at the front of the row, both in design view and in datasheet view, but to no avail. Everything I do to put the column at the start of the row in the datasheet shown below the form ends up with it back at the far end of the row the next time I open the form.

Forms :: Split Form Ignoring Record Source?

Jan 15, 2014

Access 2013 on a Window 8.1 system.

I have a combo box based on a look-up table which I use to filter the records in the form. Seems after closing the form and reopening it, the filter remains.

I'm not sure if this is referred to filtering or restricting the records.

The value in the record source doesn't get changed but the records displayed don't reflect this. The records shown are the last filter I selected in the combo box.

The only work around I have found is I must explicitly set the record source in the on open of the form.

The was not occurring with access 2010. And I have made no changes what-so-ever.

Forms :: Split Form Combobox Requery Based On Row Selected

Oct 2, 2013

I have a split form that was not made by wizard. On the form part I have a combobox that is unbound to the form data set. The combobox has a query row source that is based on the current row selected. I want the combobox to have an up-to-date result based on which row is selected.

If I set the combobox to requery in the form_current event then I get what I want. I don't want to put up with the little delay that is generated every time a user changes rows because of the requery, though. I only want the requery to happen when they use the drop-down menu.

I have the requery in the gotfocus event of the combobox on the form. I mostly get what I want this way, however if they select an item in the drop-down list, then choose a new record in the datasheet, then try to use the combobox again, the combobox is not refreshed (because it never lost focus?).

To get around this, I've tried to setfocus to something on the form in the on_current event, but access gives me an error: 'Access can't move focus to the control btn_Refresh'.How can I get the combo to requery only when users are about to use it?

Forms :: Table Inserted Into Form No Longer Expands After Db Is Split?

Aug 20, 2013

I have elected to have tables inserted into my forms. For example on the School Information form, I have the Employees table inserted at the bottom so that it will show the employees that are assigned to that school when it's pulled up.

Before I split my database into a BE/FE situation, I could expand the items in the tables to other related items, but now that option is gone.

Is there any way to get that back with a split database?

Forms :: Employees Work Schedule - Filtering A Split Form

Aug 6, 2013

I have a database and form that is used to register times and various codes for employees to enter their work schedule for the day. Right now I am using a split form where they enter a ID code in the form and it auto populates with their name/department/and date. They then go and fill out a few boxes regarding time spent, machine used, and purchase order.

Once the information is added it is seen below due to it being a split form.

My question is this: Can I make the bottom portion (split form) filter and display only that specific employees ID number and his previous entries? Right now it is possible to view all of the entries placed and due to it being used on a network connection there are many submissions, I want it to narrow down so that once the employee enters his/her own ID only their previous submissions for that day can be viewed.

Forms :: Split Database - Opening Related Record On Different Form

Aug 11, 2014

I have a split DB that is in its (hopefully) finally stages of development. Using Access 2010. It is being developed both at work and at home on a 64 bit machine. The remainder of the machines are 32 bit.

All of a sudden one of my most basic sets of code doesn't want to work, but only on my machine at work. It works fine on my home computer and on other computers at work. It is the simplest of codes, run from frmNameA:

DoCmd.OpenForm "frmNameB", acNormal, , "[SequenceNumber] = " & Me![SequenceNumber], acFormEdit, acWindowNorm

The desired sequence of events is to open frmNameA, find the active clients and then click on the [SequenceNumber] to bring up the related record on frmNameB.

When I do this on my computer at work, it asks for the query criteria for the [SequenceNumber] and the criteria for another field. On the home computer and others at work, it works just fine.

In a related problem, I have the following code on the OnLoad event for frmNameB. It opens all the related records for active clients that are in frmNameB. But if there are no related records, it is supposed to cancel the event. Again, it works fine on my home computer and others at work, but not my work computer.

Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
'code when opened from frmNameA and no record exists in frmNameB
Dim MyReply
If ClientID = "" Or IsNull(ClientID) Then
MyReply = MsgBox("No record exits in frmNameB, Do You Want to Exit?", vbOKOnly)
If MyReply = vbOK Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdUndo
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmNameB", acSaveNo
End If
End If
End Sub

What I can't figure out is why this may be happening, where I might look for errors, and what I might do to correct this.

Forms :: How To Vary Field Widths In A Default SPLIT Form

Aug 18, 2013

I am running Access 2003 and have created a split form using one of the std form options. The file it is querying has about 20 fields per record. The split form that is generated has four columns of 10 fields each.

E.g.
Column 1 Column 2 Column 3 Column 4

Employee Fred Smith Weekending 24-June-2013
Age 25 Hourly_Rate $30.00
Normal_Time 24 Sick_Leave 8
Vacation_Hrs 8 Total_Hrs 40
etc
etc
Field10_Name, Field10 Contents, Field20_Name, Field20 Contents

When I view the form generated, some of these fields are too narrow and others are too wide. I would like to make the width of the fields various widths. But if I try to widen one field in the column all fields in the same column are made the same width. It appears as if they are multiply selected. Is there any way of selecting a single field and varying the width without impacting fields above or below it in the column?

Forms :: Show / Hide Bound Check Box On Split Form

May 17, 2013

I have a Split form displaying parts information and have all data displayed from the table including an obsolete field which is a Yes/No checkbox.

I want to display ONLY unchecked fields on a button click. I have tried this code so far but it didn't seem to have any effect

Private Sub cmdCurrent_Click()
Me.chkObsolete.Visible = Nz(Me.chkObsolete.Value, True)
Me.Requery
End Sub

Commands:
- cmdCurrent = show all unchecked fields
- cmdShowAll = show all fields
- cmdSearch = filter based on textbox entry

Other: There is also a hyperlink in each field (on the form only) to open each individual record for editing.

Field in question is chkObsolete
Command in question cmdCurrent
