Forms :: Filtering Data Other Than Combo Boxes?
Mar 24, 2014
I am using master/child form for data entry for packings and the details for this packings (i.e. the products inside a packing is entered in subform and packing master is entered in main form ).
In the detail subform i use a productId field which has look up from 1000 products , so i want to filter that particular combo box based on different types from product master ( from which it choses the products).
How many ways are there to filter that combo box based on different types ( which i have in product master as type,design,material etc).One way of which is combo boxes on main form.

Filtering the first one on the second one works, but when I whant to add a third one to it, it just shows blank spaces on the third one.
What I did to the first and the second combobox :
1: I pressed the second combobox.
2: Went to rowsource.
3: filled criteria in on the value i whant to connect the first combox to the second combobox ( [Forms]![Thetableimin].[1stcombobox].
4. requery the second combobox in programcode on the first combobox.
What I did to the second and the third combobox:
1: I pressed the third combobox.
2: Went to rowsource.
3: filled criteria in on the value i whant to connect the second combobox to the third combobox ( [Forms]![Thetableimin].[2ndcombobox]
4. requery the third combobox in programcode on the second combobox.
How do I make a third combobox that uses the filtered values of the second combobox to filter the third combobox.

Need some help here....
I am designing a database to keep track of workers for a haunted house. I have a Roster table, a table of all the nights we are open, a table of Spots in the house, and a table to record who works what nights and what spot they are in. This table has a Room combo box and a Spot combo box. The Room combo has a Row Source of SELECT DISTINCT SpotsAll.Room FROM SpotsAll ORDER BY SpotsAll.Room; The Spot combo is then populated with VB code all the Spots that are in that room. That works fine. This is what I'm trying to accomplish: When a Spot is assigned to a Worker for that night, I want that spot to no longer be available in that list FOR THAT PARTICULAR NIGHT. So, lets say Joe Somebody works in Spot 1 (out of 4 lets say) of the Library Room, when we assign another person to the Library room, I don't want Spot 1 in the Spot list.
Can this be done with a query or VB code? If I'm not making sense, please let me know. I can also upload the Database I am creating so that you can play around with it and see what I mean.
(I have attached a word doc. that shows the table relationships.)
Thanks a lot ahead of time!!

I have a form that we are creating to issue project numbers. We have about 80 different clients. I have set up a combo box for the client name, where we can choose the client from the drop down menu. We want the form to filter according to the client name that you choose. For example, if you pick Lawrence as the client name, the next combo box is the project name and I want it to only show the project names that have been assigned to Lawrence in the past. Can someone please help me on how to do this and if it is even possible at all? Thank you so much for your help!! I have been wrestling with this for about a week and a half now.

Please help. My inability to achieve this is very frustrating.
I have a tabular form based on a query, which returns a large number of records. I need users to be able to filter the records to display data relating to what they have entered in a number of combo boxes.
For example I have fields showing Product ID, Manufacturer ID, Purchase Order number and due date. Each of these fields has a corresponding unbound combo box where users can select values that appear in the table. I need to be able to filter the form based on what is in these combo boxes. I.e. Filler for a product ID to show all purchase orders numbers and due dates relating to that product ID or filter for a manufacturer ID and due date to show all Product IDs and purchase orders relating to that a manufacturer and date.
Ideally this would be achieved by pressing a command button.
The query, table and combo boxes are all built and work fine but I am unable to get the filter to work, I am using Access 97 and am not very familiar with visual basic. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm attempting to filter my form with combo boxes. I've added the below code, but the if statement that checks if one of the combo boxes is null won't work. If the combo box is null or "", it's supposed to assign a wildcard to the variable. But it doesn't pass the test and goes straight to the Else statement. I've highlighted the if statement that keeps failing in red.
Code:
Private Sub btn_Search_Click()
'create variables to store the combo box values
Dim str_Country As String
Dim str_Vendor As String
Dim str_Survey As String
[Code] ....

I thought I was in the home stretch of my project, everything worked great when I was messing with 200 records. Now that I'm messing with 2000+ records, things are very slow. So a search form redesign!
I have a form (frmSearch) that has a subform (frmSubSearch) embedded in it. The frmSubSearch is a datasheet only that is just pulling its info from a query (qrySearch). qrySearch has about 8 columns of data in it.
On the main form I have a combo box that is feeding its list from the qrySearch using a SELECT DISTINCT statement. So a user selects an item in the combo box and my After_Update fires. This sets a filter on frmSubSearch. I have three of these combo boxes that can add to the filter and they work great so far.
But I want to have the combo boxes filter themselves based on whats left on frmSubSearch. So if a user selects something in the 2nd combo box, the sub form filters and updates, but then I want the other two combo boxes to only have valid selections, and not something selectable that would wind up giving me a blank sub form result.
I have tried using .Requery in various ways, but its not working. I have also been looking into the idea of Cascading Comboboxes, but these don't seem to quite fit what I'm trying to do.

I am creating a query that should filter records of events based on multiple fields. The filters should work with any combination of field criteria, but only two of the four field are working properly, as follows:
1. a text box for searching with event name (free text) - this is working;
2. a combo box to filter events by country name - this is working;
3. a combo box to filter events by event's keyword (category) - this is NOT working;
4. a combo box to filter events by year - this is NOT working

I have two questions.
I have a form with 2 combo boxes. The first pulls from a simple list. Once you make a choice, the second combo box is then filtered by the first. This works correct, except that once a choice is made in the first, the filter is locked. If you change the first combo box's value a second time it does not effect the second box. The query that I am using for the second combo box has two columns that pull the first 50 characters of a pair of memo fields. Quote: SELECT MSSS.SS_ID, Left([Application_Name],50) AS Expr1, Left([Description],50) AS Expr2, MSSS.Site_Code
FROM MSSS
WHERE (((MSSS.Site_Code)=[Forms]![Edit or Delete Requests]![Combo6])); These fields are then used to populate 2 text fields using an event procedure. Quote: Private Sub Combo10_AfterUpdate()
' Display Partial Application Name and Description based on choice
Me!txtApplication_Name = Me!Combo10.Column(1)
Me!txtDescription = Me!Combo10.Column(2)
End Sub This is working fine, but it starts the next problem.
I need to change the form to include the entire memo field into a text box. I was using the columns of the second combo box to fill them in. Since the combo box is limited to only 50 characters, i could only grab part of it. I am guessing there is a much better way to accomplish what I need, but I am too inexperienced with forms and vb to come up with it. Below are the fields I need from table MSSS
Business_Name
Application_Name
Description
Acronym
Level_1_Support
Level_2_Support
Escalation_process
Troubleshooting
Priority
Links
Modified
Disabled
Thanks in advance to any help!

I have two combo boxes that contain data from one table.
table has two fields: Name and ID
cboName
cboID
I would like both combo boxes to update each other.
Example if start typing in the cboName box it fills in after update I would like the cboID to be updated with the correct value and vise versa if i start typing the ID in the cboID box when selected the cboName should be updated.
example table
ID NAME
1 joe
2 jane
3 mark
So if i type in or select 1 in the ID combo box it should put 'joe' in the Name combo box.
Or if i type in or select jane in the NAME combo box it should put '2' in the ID box.
I have read how to cascade combo boxes but that is not what i think i need.
I am using a Access 2010 web database.

I have a couple forms with Combo boxes that look up data in queries. I noticed in testing that I could accidently type a "~" (and other characters) in the field and once I do, it causes a runtime error that shuts down the entire app (as opposed to letting the user backspace out of it or resetting the field). Before I put in some "Before Update" code to prevent the system from crashing, I want to make sure I am on the right track. I have already set the combo box to just show the list, not allow edits, limit to list, etc. Is there a way to prevent the user from doing this either by preventing the keyboard from working on combo boxes (not preferred) or by trapping it before the system crashes? I would think I could validate with a recordset, and create my own path out for the user, but I was hoping the combo box would have sort of done that work for me.

I have a form with four combo boxes on it, the four boxes all open the same form and return a record based on the selection from a different column from the same query.
To make it work smoothly I think I need to make it so it is only possible to enter data in one combo box at a time. I could also do with some error handling.

I am new in MS Access programming and is trying to create a search form for all records based on selected dates and check box. I was able to filter the records by dates but can't find ways to filter the records that meet the dates to be filtered again based on the selected check box/s. Basically what I wanted to is display all the records within the selected dates and check box/s.

I have a Suppliers database which contains a form that will allow me to place orders with Suppliers.The Main form has a combo box that allows me to select the supplier. The combo box is called SupplierID with the following:
Row source: SELECT Suppliers.SupplierID, Suppliers.CompanyName FROM Suppliers ORDER BY Suppliers.CompanyName;
The subform is called Stock Subform witha combo box called ProductID with the following:
Row source: SELECT DISTINCT Products.ProductID, Products.ProductName, Suppliers.CompanyName, Products.Discontinued FROM Suppliers INNER JOIN Products ON Suppliers.SupplierID=Products.SupplierID WHERE (((Products.Discontinued)=0)) ORDER BY Products.ProductName;
Event Procedure - AfterUpdate: Private Sub ProductID_AfterUpdate()
On Error GoTo Err_ProductID_AfterUpdate
Dim strFilter As String
' Evaluate filter before it's passed to DLookup function.
strFilter = "ProductID = " & Me!ProductID
[code]..
The Link fields are done on the Purchase Order ID (PONoID).What I want to achieve is to select the supplier from the combo box (SupplierID) on the main form and then the combo box (ProductID) on the subform to filter to only show products directly supplied by the Supplier selected on the Main Form.

I currently have 3 tables within a database with student details of three different classes. I need to create a user form that has a dropdown box which I can select a student from one of these tables with a number of text boxes below which brings up all the students details, then once the student has been selected and the correct details are shown then I need to create a button which allows me to move that student from one table to another.

there is a way to convert multiple text boxes to combo boxes all at once, rather than right clicking on them one at a time, and selecting Change to.
I have a form with about 50 fields and most of them need to be converted to combo boxes. I'd always done it manually one at a time up to this point, but I'm trying to build up my learning and look for smarter ways to do things.

I am trying to make a search option in my form header. Right now I have two unbound combo boxes (CboAccountsfilter and cboCourseName) that I can use to filter my records. Currently, I can use the drop down for CboAccountsfilter and a list of accounts will appear. When I select one, the corresponding Course Names will appear in cboCourseName. This works fine...Code below. I would like to take the filtering a step farther and add checkboxes to filter the data. I my form, there currently exist several check boxes (yes/no)...(Priority, Rep Top Target, Manager Top Target, ect). I would like to have the option to use a check box to filter. I.E if I had a checkbox in my header called PriorityFilter, if checked it would only bring up those records that met the two combo boxes criteria and was a priority.
Below is the code I have so far...it doesnt have anything for the checkbox because I am at a lost of how to get started.
Private Sub CboAccountsfilter_Change()
Me.Requery
Me.cboCourseName.Requery
Me.Check178.Requery
End Sub

I have a form that is bound to Table1 and I am using the value from a Combo box to filter the records. The Combo Box is populated with values from a different table.
The SetFilter macro is triggered using the AfterUpdate event. When the macro fires, Access asks for a parameter, so I know it's not getting what it needs to complete the macro action. When I provide a value, the macro works fine and returns the appropriate subset of records. I think the problem might be in the WHERE clause of the SetFilter statement; here is what I have.
[ComboBox value on Form]=[Table1]![Field]
Could it possibly be anything to do with using a different table to source the Combo box?

I have a combo box on a form which has a row source type of Value List in which I've manually typed in 2 entries: Owned, Leased.
I have a query which filters on the results of the combobox, and works fine for when I select either option Owned or Leased.
Is there an easy way to filter all (both Owned & Leased)? I've tried leaving the combobox blank, and tried entering a * in the value list, but they both return no results.
Code:
SELECT Assets.*
FROM Assets
WHERE (((Assets.Possession)=[Forms]![Home]![Combo56]));

In my subform, I have a field named Container Type (I know you don't need to tell me about Reserve names for Access, but I can't change the names) where when you choose one of the values (a combo box), the values for a second field (Container Code) changes (another combo box) based on the first selection. Then, based on the selection from the second field five other fields are automatically filled in.
