Forms :: Edit / Entry Form That Uses Combo Box Lists To Select Different Segments Of 32 Digit Account Numbers
Aug 7, 2015
I have a database I am using to record financial transactions. I have a transaction edit/entry form that uses combo box lists to select the different segments of my 32 digit account numbers. The issue I am running into is that when I enter a value value in the first box/field the form jumps to the very first record.I then can use the navigation buttons to get back to the last record, and all the subsequent boxes/fields work fine without jumping to a different record.

On a form, is it possible to have #### appear in the form box when it loads and then the user would type a 4 digit number in place of ####.Also, for the table associated with that form, how do I limit account numbers to a 4 digit numeric value?

I am attempting to create an attendance database that needs to be able to be updated if someone calls in sick.
I have created a cascading combo box where you can select a date up to 15 days into the past with the following code in the rowsource for cboDate
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT tblAttendance.dataDate FROM tblAttendance WHERE (((tblAttendance.dataDate)>Date()-15)) ORDER BY tblAttendance.dataDate DESC;
an after update event has been coded to show only employees who have been scheduled for the day
Code:
Private Sub cboDate_AfterUpdate()
On Error Resume Next
Me.cboAgentName.RowSource = "Select tblAttendance.agentName, tblAttendance.attendance,
[Code]....
So basically what i need to do is be able to use the cascading combo boxes to select the date and employee to go to that specific record so i can update the other fields. Currently when i attempt to do this with my current form, it automatically goes to a new record when i select a date and name and doesn't update the existing record.

I have one field AccountName in customer table and another field AccountID.
In my form I would like to select from the combo box AccountName during data entry and then have the AccountID automatically update in the Account ID field.

I have created a form (races) with a subform (yachts in a race) to edit data in joined tables. It seems to be working well but I am having difficulty selecting which record to edit in the main form. I can scroll through the records until i get to the correct race but this won't work well when there are a large number of races to choose from.
I can see that I can use linked forms to select a race from a multi form or datasheet and call up my desired form by a double click on the ID field. This should work but isn't really elegant with users scrolling down a long datasheet to select the race record they want to work with. Is there a better way?
Races are uniquely identified by 3 attributes: SeriesDivision, Date & RaceNumber.I have created an index in the Race table for these 3 fields which forces them to be unique.I would love to create an interactive routine which asks users to select from a list for each of these 3 attributes and then returns the form for editing with the appropriate race record selected or even cascading - users select a SeriesDivision can then choose the valid dates for the selected SeriesDivision and can then select the valid raceNumbers for the selected date

I have a form which displays the records from a query (i have included a picture of this form) and allows me to filter them and create a report from the filter.
I'd like to be able to select a record with the record selectors (or preferably without) - and then go onto edit it in a new window and save the edit...
If possible also to select a record with or without record selectors and click a button to delete the record

I have several comboboxes in my database from which users select values. However, in most cases, I do want to give them the option to add an item that does not appear while simultaneously updating the underlying table which stores those dropdown values. I have made use of the builtin "allow edit list items" feature of Access 2007 but the form always opens on the first record of the form on which they are to add the new item. Is there a way to specify that it should open in Data Entry view apart from using VBA?

I have a Main form with a combo box that pulls names from a table. Alongside the combo box is a command button that opens a form which allows the user to edit the names in the table.
The problem: When a user edits a name and closes the edit form, the edit is not immediately displayed in the combo box. However, when the Main form is closed and reopened, the edit is properly displayed. Can I somehow refresh the combo box in the On Close event of the edit form?

During the course of it's development I have created about twenty tables whose sole purpose is to house data for use in combo and list boxes. They have no other purpose.
I am now in the process of creating the maintenance side of this project and how to manage these lists. In the past I have created a form with a multitude of subforms to manage these lists.

I'm stuck on a portion of a form that displays members attending and not attending a specific event. I've got some of it working but others not.
1. Removing items from a table and updating a listbox
2. Changing the Event selection from Next Record to a combo box.
The code that I have in the two list boxes are as follows:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
Me!lstNotAttending.RowSource = "SELECT DISTINCT Members.MemberID, Members.txtLname, Members.txtFname FROM Members " & _
" LEFT JOIN MemberEvents ON Members.MemberID = MemberEvents.fk_MemberID" & _
" WHERE MemberEvents.fk_MemberID Is Null OR MemberEvents.fk_EventID <> " & Me!txtEventID & _
" ORDER BY Members.txtLName;"
Me!lstAttending.RowSource = "SELECT Members.MemberID, Members.txtLname, Members.txtFname FROM Members " & _
" LEFT JOIN MemberEvents ON Members.MemberID = MemberEvents.fk_MemberID" & _
" WHERE MemberEvents.fk_EventID = " & Me!txtEventID & _
" ORDER BY Members.txtLName;"
End Sub
The code I have working for adding a member:
Code:
Private Sub lstNotAttending_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
CurrentDb.Execute "INSERT INTO MemberEvents(fk_MemberID, fk_EventID) " & _
"VALUES (" & lstNotAttending.Column(0) & ", " & Me!txtEventID & ");"
Me!lstNotAttending.Requery
Me!lstAttending.Requery
End Sub
I know the code for removing has to start with REMOVE FROM. I just don't know the syntax.The combo box has no code.I'm assuming the Requery options aren't working properly for the listboxes

Hey
I currently have this code which tells the user there is a an accout number already on the db:
Private Sub AccountNo_AfterUpdate()
Dim rs As Recordset
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Select * From Spreadsheet where AccountNo = '" & Me.AccountNo & "';")
If rs.RecordCount > 0 Then
MsgBox "This Account Number Is Currently Within The Database And Will Not Be Allowed.", vbInformation, "DD Cancellations"
Me.AccountNo = Null
End If
End Sub
I want a peice of code which instead allocates a letter to the duplicate account, so user enters a duplicate account, the account will then turn into 123456789A, upto 5 duplicates are allowed, so upto 123456789E. Once "E" has been reached accountnum box will turn null with msgbox. I tried out Case statements but that doesn't seem to work.
all help appreciated. Thanks.

Hi guys,
I've got a table (called table1), which a select query (called qryTable1) read it and is referenced in a form (called frmTable1).
So now my form display fields of the query of the table.
On the form, below the text boxs for data entry, there is a subform that displays the entire table - table1.
I've done this so I can see some fields of the old data, that helps me to enter new ones. Hope u follow so far...
---
This where I'm stuck. When I was half way entering data in the top section of the form (ie using text boxes), if I go to the subform below to copy some values from a field, ACCESS then either adds a new or edit the record. I'm wondering if there is a way to stop ACCESS automatically doing this? I want to be able to add a record when THE add record button is depressed, and that's the only way to add record.
Please do help..

I have a query to create in access based off a query already created in SQL
The SQL query converts a 4 digit number into a date using this code:
CAST(CASE WHEN LEFT(OPDT, 2) > 12 OR LEFT(OPDT, 2) = 00 THEN RIGHT(OPDT, 2) ELSE LEFT(OPDT, 2) END + '/' + '01' + '/' + CASE WHEN LEFT(OPDT, 2) > 12 OR LEFT(OPDT, 2) = 00 THEN LEFT(OPDT, 2) ELSE RIGHT(OPDT, 2) END AS SMALLDATETIME)
OPDT is a digit number in text format. The function converts 9606 into 1996-06-01
What is the access method in order to this?

I can't work out how to update the selections available in a combo box as follows: I use a combo box in a main form to select a record (yacht) If it's a new yacht then I use an event linked to a button to call another form to add the new Yacht On exiting the Yacht Maintenance form I return to the main form The combo box in the main form doesn't list the yacht i just added unless I exit and re-load the form
I'm not sure of the best way to refresh the combo box selections or main form without exiting.

I'm trying to create a Data Entry only form based on a small table called tblProject.
It consist of the fields Project_ID, Artist_ID, Project_Name, and Project_Notes.
I used the wizard to get me started and i know how to change the form to data entry only, but the problem is the vague data in the Artist_ID control. It shows up as a number, because it is an FK to another table (tblArtist) where more details on the artist are held. (including Band_Name)
I want to be able to make it a combobox with a list of the Band_Names from the tblArtist table. This would make creating "a new project" much easier.

I have the main form open up where the Data entry is set to YES so it opens in New Field. I created a button to change the value of form's Data Entry to NO. It works. Changed the form so I can navigate through entered fields. I have created a drop down to filter a specific field "Claim#" and it will open that entry.
The drop down only works if I set the default form's Data Entry to NO. Dropdown works and I can select Claim#. But if I open the form with DataEntry set to Yes, and I click on the button to change the value to NO, the form changes but the drop down field does not pull up the proper information. The button code is.
Private Sub EditButton_Click()
Form_MainForm.Form.DataEntry = False
End Sub
The Claim drop down has this event after update
Private Sub ClaimSearch_AfterUpdate()
Me.Requery
End Sub
I'm missing something. Like I said, it works without having the button change the value.

I've been asked to edit a current report that lists our production in week number order. I need to look at way we can 'flag up' orders that are within a 4 week period from the current date.
For example,
10 Orders in total in our database. 5 of which are due the drawings back within 4 weeks from today (26/02/15). I'm looking for a way for the report to show the 5 orders as priority, either by formatting the orders in bold, a different colour or under their own heading/group.

I am working on creating an access database for tracking physical assets linked to locations. I need to make a combo box list to show items other than the current location of the asset. Basically I need it to refer to last enery of the user and define the new possible entries. so we have a unique relationship between location and asset. The assets and location will always remain fixed and there is never going to be any addition. I am creating a web form so that it can be uploaded into sharepoint.

I have a form that allows the user to select a record in a combo box. When this selection is made I want a 2nd form to open and give the user a place to enter additional info about that item selected. I have the forms working correctly but now I would really like to add the 2nd form to the first form as a subform but when I try this I get the message"The expressing is typed incorrectly or is too complex to be evaluated..." There are no fields on the first form that link directly to the 2nd form - because the combo box in an unbound combo (the selection in the combo box is what the 2nd form opens base on) I tried to add this as a subform with no parent/child info and I get the message stated.
I was hoping to make the 2nd form not visible until the selection was made in the combo box then make it visible for the info to be entered. Would really like it to be on the same form not as a separate form opening.I believe I just found that the reason for the message. It seems not to be a subform problem but is because the selection in the combo box needs to be made BEFORE the form can open. So now the question is - how can I make this a subform and avoid this error when the main form first opens. I will test the visibility and see if not visible until the selection clears this up.

I am creating a data base to handle access requests to a building. All has gone well so far and ive built tables, reports, forms and used queries. However now im trying to get abit more clever and ive hit a bump of understanding/apprach.
Whilst a ninja in Excel, im still working out which is the pointy end in Access.
The database holds all details of access requests inc: Company attending, Individual attending, Access Levels and Period of attendance. This is all done with forms for the users and functions beautifully (ish).
I can run reports on this data, based on queries (there is much more included than above but you get the idea) and generate all the reports I need.
What I wanted to do was add, following attendance to the site, the card details of the AC card they were given for the visit.
My intention was to have a form with three variables: a combobox that would let you select the individuals company and two text boxes to select a date range in. Leaving just say three or four people from that company on that day rather than everyone who had ever atteneded to sort through and add the card details.
The combo box comes from another query that gave me individual company names from the main table.
I thought a date query (as in placing a more than <> or less than criteria vs textbox value on form in the query build section) could be added but I hadnt got that far.
It seems what I have done works backwards (oops), I can adjust the query from the form but get every record in the table on the form to click through to add card details, which will be abit rubbish when i have 1000's of requests building up in the history.

I have a subform containing a list of Funds and attributes such as Asset Type, Fund Manager, etc.
Currently, I have a textbox, where the the control source is set so that it will be updated with the Asset Type from the subform.
I also have an unbound combo box that contains a list of Asset Types queried from a table via row source, where user can select the Asset Type.
What I would like is when a record is selected from the subform, the Asset Type is selected on the combo box as a default value. User can select another Asset Type if required. How can I do this?
