Forms :: Access Form Must Be Opened In Design View Before Use
Oct 1, 2013I have a access form that has a text box that holds a search term. The search term is used as a variable in a query. The query results populate a list box. Selecting a result in the list box populates the rest of the form where the record can be edited. All of that works great...sort of. When first opening the form you cannot view any records. The search function works fine and the list box populates but selecting a record does not populate the rest of the form. Attempt to navigate (next, first, etc.) and you get a "You can't go to the specified record" dialog. There is a simple fix for this. Open the form as normal. Then switch to design mode. Do absolutely nothing. Switch back to form mode. All is well.

May 16, 2014Why the ability to view the properties of an object within a form is not available when you double click on it in design view?
I was happily working away double clicking on a command button to edit some code when for some reason the next time I tried to edit it did not open up for me.
I was unable to access it even by right clicking on the object & selecting properties as that also appears to be disabled, not greyed out or anything but just does nothing when selected.
Have I inadvertently changed a setting somewhere that prevents the properties from being displayed?
How Do I Export A Table Design View?
Feb 7, 2007I have four tables in a single .MDB file. I need to export the contents of the Design View of each table to a text file. How do I go about doing that? I've tried the help files and Access for Dummies, but neither are giving me the info I need.

Access Form Design
May 13, 2006Hi all Its my first time on this forum so please be gentle with me ! I have a list of numbers stored in a field (wieght). I have another field that is the product field. I also have a list of letters (A-D) Now, the weight can be 1kg (through to 20kg) A-D hence four different values in my product field. I need to have a form that the user can choose a letter then enter the weight to show the correct product. I can get a dllookup function to work fine for the fields involved but i need a control to filter the different letter combinations Anybody point me in the right direction
View 4 Replies View RelatedMS Access Form Design - Help Please
Jul 23, 2007Hi,
I've been asked to design a database to hold information from a proforma based on tracheostomy insertions. The information breaks down into two components; patients and tracheostomy details.
From this I have designed two tables:
1) tblPatientDetails
- PatientID (autonumber) - [primary key]
- 12 fields (text / numbers) - relating to demographics
2) tblTracheostomyDetails
- TracheostomyID (autonumber) - [primary key]
- PatientID - [Foreign key]
- 74 fields (checkboxes, text / numbers) - relating to tracheostomy details.
Each patient can have more than one tracheostomy inserted over the course of their care, so there exists a one:many relationship between the tables. The two tables are therefore linked (one:many) from tblPatientDetails:tblTracheostomyDetails based on the PatientID fields in both tables.
OK here's my question; I want to make the inputting of these proformas as easy as possible for the person doing the data entry. Ideally I would like:
a) a single form which collects the data and enters it into the two tables.
b) a method of searching the patient details upon name entry and if they already exist in tblPatientDetails, to autopopulate the rest of their demographic information in the fields, but to leave the tracheostomy details blank (as it would be a new entry for that table).
My attempts at using the following solutions failed miserably:
a) a form based on a query of both tables - this allowed me to put the fields from both tables on the same form and enter information, but when I searched for a patient's details to enter a new proforma - it populated both the patient & tracheostomy details as well (i.e. didn't really let me add a new 'many' to the 'one' record).
b) two separate forms (patient & tracheostomy), with a command button to go from the patient form to the tracheostomy form. This didn't work because I couldn't pass on the PatientID variable between the forms to form a link between the tables - and there ended up being two separate tables of information. :S
c) from looking around at the various forums, I understand that a sub-form is useful in these cases but I can't seem to get the formatting right (I would like the form to appear as similar to the paper proforma as possible), but my recent attempts at a sub-form resulted in a datasheet view of the tblTracheostomyDetails, which isn't very useful as it contains so many fields.
I'm now left at a loss what to do, so any help would be gratefully received.
Many thanks,
Craig.
Forms :: Switching From Design View Causes Access To Freeze?
Dec 30, 2014Access 2013 on Windows 7 ..I have a Main Switchboard form which is Pop-up and Modal. Everything on it is working as required, but if I am in Design View and try to switch directly to Form view, the form disappears and the Access screen freezes - the mouse moves, but no menus or objects can be selected. If I have the VBA window open, I can carry on working in it, saving the modules and closing that window as usual. But the only way to open a form or do anything else in the main screen is to kill Access by closing the Access window in the system tray (or using the Task Manager).
If I close the Switchboard when in Design view and then open it in Form view, everything's fine.
The only recent change I can think of is upgrading from a 32-bit implementation of Access to 64-bit.
How To Design A Form In Microsoft Access?
Aug 10, 2007Greetings. I have the following problem:
I have a list of about 200 crops on a column, and for each crop I have 6 information (income, amount of land, season, etc.) in the following 6 columns. I have this information for about 100 households in 6 villages.
I am now starting to put these info in the computer, and it is an enourmous task. I thought that one way to do it is design a form in Access, and have one file per village. I then want to analyse the data at the household level for each village, and also analyse the data at the village level (after calculating village averages).
I want to recreate the form I used to interview farmers in Access, but I can't figure out how to make Access automatelly have 7 columns in form view (the first with the name of the crop, the next 6 with the information: income, etc.). The idea is to reproduce as closely as possible the form I used to interview the farmers, so as to facilitate the data-entry.
Does anybody know how to let Access automatically sort all the fields into 7 columns? Of course I can design the form manually (putting each field individually in its right place), but then I have 7 x200 fields to move, and it would take a huge amount of time. I can't believe that Access can't do this automatically, but I can't figure out how.
I then plan to transfer the info for analysis to SPSS. Does anybody foresee a problem?
Do I make sense? If anybody can help, I would be very grateful. This is actually very urgent, because I am going to pay somebody to do it, but I have to tell her how to do it over the week-end. Thank you very much!!
Forms :: Applying Sort And Filter In Form Results In Design Changes To Form
Dec 27, 2014When 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 :: Design Form That Looks Very Similar To Either Split Form Or Subform
Jun 2, 2014Basically 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 :: Export Form To PDF Resolution
Dec 4, 2013After a user completes a form, they click a button at the end that uploads the information the back-end database and creates a PDF copy using the DoCmd.OutputTo function. It has been working fine, but one user just had an issue where the form was very zoomed in and cut off. So I have 2 questions:
1) What is the cause of this problem? Is it based on screen resolution?
2) Is there a way to fix the problem to make sure it does not happen?
Modules & VBA :: Export From MS Access To PDF With Set Variables From Opened Form
Jul 9, 2015I have been at this for almost 3 weeks now and I'm having great difficulties trying to get this right and working. First let me explain what I am doing and what I am trying to do.
Firstly, I am making a Maintenance database using MS access software, what I have are tables, forms and no queries or report existing so far. The forms and tables all work correctly.
After the form (Job request) has been completed I need to save/export into PDF so I am able to hyperlink it against its existing asset card elsewhere.
now what I have done is Created button, on event "on click" I have tried to go to macro builder
ExportWithFormatting
Objet Type: Form
Object Name: FrmMachineFault/GenMaint
Output format: PDF
Output file:
Auto Start: No
Template File:
Encoding:
Output Quality: Print
when I click this button it opens to save to and it works perfectly but I have to manually type the file name when it gets to the Save to section.
What I want it to do is define the name by the existing fields in the open form. Example Closed date, Effected area, Asset and title.
What I am hoping for is something like this.
10/07/15_Foundry_Furnace_LPG_Leak
(Closed date)_(Effected Area)_(Asset)_(Tittle)
Is this possible?

Oct 14, 2013How to structure some MS Access 2007 Forms for the following scenario.
My table structure is as follows:
Product
++++++
ID (pk)
ProductName
...
Tag
++++
ID (pk)
TagName
ProductTag
+++++++++
ProductID (fk)
TagID (fk)
I want to have a main form that allows me to search for and displays a list of all products (and the dozen or so attributes for each product) that meet that criteria (I'm thinking a continuous form view of products).
So far so good. No problems.
Now I want a "tagging" form to the right of my continuous forms product list that is linked to the product which currently has focus. The tag panel should always show a complete list of all Tags. I want a checkbox next to each tag that I can switch on and off whether that tag applies to the currently selected Product. I also want to be able to add tags on the fly (without leaving the main form).
I think I have three forms in play :
Main Form
Product Form (subform to Main) my product search criteria is probably on this form header.
Tag Form (also subform to Main)
But with this approach I'm have trouble linking the two sub forms to each other. Actually, I'm having huge trouble figuring out how to display the list of all tags with a check box that when checked on and off creates / deletes a record in the ProductTag table and I really want Access to do as much of the CRUD as possible. I would prefer to avoid writing screeds of SQL INSERTS/DELETES on events. Am I asking too much of Access?
