Forms :: Finding A Keyboard Shortcut That Simulates The Double Click?
Oct 28, 2014
Is there a keyboard shortcut that simulates the double click.
In my Sectionfrm I have a command button that opens my Ordersfrm. Because I use the Ordersfrm for reasons not always associated with the Sectionfrm I do not automatically populate the SectionID (textbox) in the Ordersfrm with the SectionID from the Sectionfrm.
When I want to link an order to a (building) section I double click the SectionID field in the Ordersfrm which in turn runs VBA code that copies the SectionID from the Sectionfrm to the Ordersfrm.
As I tab through my form I find it annoying to move away from my keyboard to the mouse to double click the SectionID, so the question is:
Is there a keyboard shortcut that simulates the double click to run the VBA code?

I am running Access 2010. I have added the following to the "On Open" event on my main form:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
DoCmd.ShowToolbar "Ribbon", acToolbarNo
DoCmd.NavigateTo "acNavigationCategoryObjectType"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdWindowHide
Me.ShortcutMenu = False
End Sub
My main form (frmMain) is displayed when the database opens. As you can see, I am hiding the ribbon and the navigation pane from users. I also want to prevent users from right clicking on the form and opening it in Design view - trying to prevent any monkey business. However, the line:Me. ShortcutMenu = False
is not preventing users from right clicking on the form and getting the shortcut menu and going into Design view.If I go to Options and uncheck: "Allow Default Shortcut Menus" then I lose the ability to print reports because I have the ribbon hidden and this will not allow right click on reports.Converting to .accde is not an option at this time.

I am having a problem in my access database. I have a a form called Compliance Register. When this window opens it lists all of the requirements of a particular department. There is an ID and Source ID(this field can contain the same number such as multiple 17's). The descriptions match up to what is supposed to be shown. However when I double click on the item, it brings up a Compliance Status window. This is where things go wrong.
It shows the status listed as the first Source ID that matches the number, but does not seem to also be matching up the ID as well It must match both ID and Source ID since Source ID can have the same number multiple times down the list..
Here is what is under the Event Procedure for the double click.
Private Sub ListRequirements_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
On Error GoTo Err_ListRequirements_DblClick
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "Compliance Status"
[Code] ......
Under stlink criteria, i need it to not only pull the ID, but it has to have a "AND" Source ID. I need it to pull the record that matches BOTH numbers.

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

I have a Contacts subform and would like to be able to double click to fill addresses, and details from the previous row...every person in our database even those living at the same address needs thier own record.. and since we only need to fill up to 5 records and review them, double clicking on the first name to fill up the next row with the previous addres phone number ect would be grand.
I am assuming we could fill out the new Full Name and double click on it to get the previous record filled to the new one. Don't really want to work with a query unless needed, but I have a little vba understanding.. how do I code this to make it work?
Full_Name_Dbl_Click
getPreviousRecord.Address(-1)
getPreviousRecord.Phone Number(-1)
getPreviousRecord.City(-1)

I'm in desperate need of a (simple I guess) code to allow me to send records from my listbox to a new form. Scenario goes as follows:
I use cascading combo boxes to narrow my available choices and finally end up with a listbox presenting the records filtered through cascading process. Now, I want to double-click on a record and load a new form with all this record's fields.
This is the code used to populate the listbox:
Private Sub FilterTypeList()
Dim strRS As String
' Filter the list box appropriately based on the combo box selection(s)
strRS = "SELECT qryTaxonomy.Type, qryTaxonomy.Article FROM qryTaxonomy"
[Code] ....
What is the code to open a form with the double-clicked record's fields, as described above?

I have a text box on my form which I use to attach hyperlinks to pdf's, this works great but after inserting a hyperlink nothing is displayed in the text box to show it has been linked unlike using attachment, the only way I know if that a hyperlink is placed is to right click and go to hyperlink and then open, is there a way to show the link on the text box and just double click on it to open the pdf. I am trying this as the size of the database will far exceed the 2gb that access allows if I just use attachments , even if I split the database (over 10000 pdfs )

I would like to select a record on an already open form called "form_candidates" using a search facility but can't get it to work.
In "form_candidates" the data settings are set to "yes" (filters/edits/deletions/additions) and data entry is set to "no". On opening, the form is set to go to a new record.
In this form I have a button that opens a record search form so both forms are now open. I enter the first few letters of the surname into a text box, press a button and the listbox is populated.
In the doubleclick event of the list box I have the following code:
Dim CandID As Integer
CandID = Me.List4.Column(0)
DoCmd.OpenForm "form_candidates", acNormal, , "forms![form_candidates]![Cand_ID]=" & CandID
So I double click on the record, the candidate form is being filtered but the record isn't being shown.

I am using a continuous form and would like my users to be able to change a field background color to a light red by double-clicking. The user would also be able to change it back to white by double-clicking again.
The code I am using (below) changes the field background color for all records. I need my code to only change the field color of the current record and cannot seem to find how to do that. The field name is [System_CurrentStatus].
Private Sub System_CurrentStatus_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
If Me.System_CurrentStatus.Backcolor = vbWhite Then
Me.System_CurrentStatus.Backcolor = RGB(234, 154, 160)
ElseIf Me.System_CurrentStatus.Backcolor = RGB(234, 154, 160) Then
Me.System_CurrentStatus.Backcolor = vbwhite
End If
End Sub

Trying to pull information from a text box on double click to populate a combobox on another form...
keeps coming up "type mismatch"
I call lngAccount as recognised on mouseover... ("Business Account" is the value I want)
I can't get it to work!
For info, the form I'm calling from is a subform located FrmMainMenu/FrmAccountsMainMenu and the control source is [Account]
the form I wish to populate in on FrmTransactions (it is a main form only) and the combobox is cboaccountselect - **I've seen the obvious mistake with no reference to this whatsoever, corrected it, and still not working**

I'm looking for a keyboard shortcut to expand the columns in "design view" of a query.
What I mean by this is rather than selecting all of the columns and double clicking to see the entire text, I'd like to be able to a shortcut.
The entire process as I see it involves 3 steps so I will need thesolution to the 3rd step.
(1) [ctrl+spacebar] to select initial column
(2) [shift+arrows] to select all of the columns I need
(3) [keyboard shortcut] will expand all of the columns "field" names to the size of the column heading
Alternatively, if you know of a shortcut that will expand the columns without having to select them first I'll take it!!

I am new to access and I recently encountered a double click issue
My form loads perfectly on double click event but it shows the first record instead of selected record.
My search is based on a PersonID but each PersonID has different WorkID that I wish to display on double click but it always shows the first WorkID instead of my selected record
I have tried changing the filters in the form properties but it still doesn't work for me.
Here's my code:
Private Sub SearchResults_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
DoCmd.OpenForm "WorkForm", , , "[PersonID]=" & Me.[Searchresults], , acNormal
End Sub
[Searchresults] draws information from my Query
Query information:
PersonID... WorkID... Type......Location
1234..........1............Paint .....Address A
1234..........2............Electric...Address B
1234..........3............Floor..... Address C

how I can have a shortcut option when right click on each item on the list box. So I got my answer with below code that opens another form "frmshortcut" with a listbox inside that shows list of options like "new task" , "edit item" . Now my problem is (like attached picture) the shortcut list (frmshortcut) will be open in another place when I right click the mouse, it is far from location of click. Also it shows some default in access when I right click in the listbox ("subform", "cut", "copy"), actually I do not like it shows these, just I like it shows shortcut list I have defined by the list box.
Private Sub ItemList_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single) Const RIGHTBUTTON = 2 If Button = RIGHTBUTTON Then DoCmd.OpenForm "frmshortcut"
' DoCmd.OpenForm "frmshortcut", acNormal, , , , acDialog
Forms!frmshortcut!txtparameter = Me.ItemList.Value
End If
End Sub

Morning, all...
Hoping someone can help me with this. I have a form (one-side) with a bound continuous subform (many-side). I have a second unbound subform, also continuous, which is used as a reference only (no data entry) to select the record to be added to the bound subform. Is it possible to set it up so that, when the user double clicks on the pk from the unbound subform it adds that pk as a new record on the bound subform?
Thanx in advance for your help with this ;<)

I have a list of companies in a table which Is being accessed through a list box. I wanted the user to be able to double-click on the name of a company from that long list and then for that selection to show up on an adjacent shorter list box which in turn will be used for a search. How can I do this? Another option would be to drag and drop the name from on list to another.
