Forms :: Get A Form To Requery Data Specified Prior To Opening
Jul 21, 2013
I have a main form "FrmTimesheetEdit" that I open in edit mode to review data in a query that uses two tables TblEmployee and TblTimeSheet. The TblEmployee has two fields called EmployeeID, and Employee. The Tbltimesheet table has a field "Weekendingdate" and "EmployeeID".Prior to loading the mainform I launch a form "frmEmployeeReportRange" that allows me to specify via combo box the Employee I am interested in and also the time periods I am interested in being "Beginningdate" and "EndingDate" These in turn are criteria for my query that supplies data to the main form "FrmTimesheetEdit" Everything seems to work ok.
However the first time I open the main form It open a form/window saying "Enter parameter Value" for EmployeeId, BeginningDate and Ending date respectively. Then the subform loads "frmEmployeeReportRange" which allows me to specify Employee plus beginning and ending dates. I select Employee from the combo box say "Emp1" and specify Beginning and Ending dates of 1-Jun-2013 and 30-Jun-2013. I then make the form invisible and the mainform opens up.I do this but get no records. If I close the main form "FrmTimesheetEdit" and reopen it the subform pops up as expected. It is preloaded with the data I entered the first time i.e. Emp1 plus 1-Jun-2013 and 30-Jun-13...If I leave the dates the same but select the next employee "Emp2" and them make the form invisible the mainform opens in edit mode as expected but with the records and dates specified for Emp1.
Bottom line it would appear that although the filter data is specified for the query that feeds the main form it is not requerying prior to opening the form. I have tried having the "frmEmployeeReportRange" launched as a VBA event on each of 'On Open' , 'On Load' and 'On Current' but no matter where I put it the results are the same in that the mainform is not requerying the data prior to opening.

I want to flag a form IF a name field AND an address field (from two separate tables) both contain the same values that I currently am inputting on a previous record.
Specifically, if a customer "X" files another claim for the same loss location, then I want to flag the form.
What is the best way to get this kind of feedback on a form with the least amount of drag imposed on the inputting process?

I have been tasked with creating a tool to analyse mobile phone bill data and present the analysis, and our recommendation, to a customers. Being new to Access (other than basic tuition) this has been a slow uphill task, which is finally nearing completion, however there is a problem which I have not yet been able to overcome.
The requirement is for the DB to open first on a splash screen (lets call it Form A) with fancy picture where our customer is selected from a combo box, the customer is then telephoned, a linked computer screen is established and our staff then click "Go" to proceed to a second form (Form B) showing an account overview and more details.
The problem I have is when "Go" is clicked, the second form loads via on click event, and even populates the correct customer in its combo box. Unfortunately that is as far as it gets - the combo does not look up the information. The customer needs to be selected again for the subforms and subreports to load with the customer overview. To clarify, form B just sits there blank until the customer is re-selcted from the combo box in form B.

I have been having problems with opening a form to add new records only. I have gone through all possible solutions but somehow the problem persists.I want to add new records only and not view any of the existing records. I have set the form properties to Date Entry Yes, Allow additions to Yes, Allow Edits to No. The form opens through a command button on another form and the vba code is the following.
DoCmd.OpenForm "FormInvDetails", acNormal, , , , acDialog

I have a form that displays a stock inventory, one of the fields I use is called [ItemCode].
On the Stock_Inventory form I have 10 command buttons that open other forms to display additional product information.
These were previously sub_forms that sat in a tabbed control box within the Stock_Inventory Form but as it now takes a while for the form to load (lots of queries running each time you search for a product) users are getting slightly frustrated.
So, what I decided to do, was move each subform from the tabbed control into a new form and open that form when it is needed by the user.
OK, when I open Stock_Inventory and search for a product [ItemCode = "ABC123"] and then want to see the Sales_History, I have to open my new form, Stock_Inventory_Sales_History, within this form are two sub-forms, each subform has a field called [ItemCode].
However, when Stock_Inventory_Sales_History opens it asks me to input the parameter [ItemCode] twice, I presume this is because the Stock_Inventory_Sales_History does not have a record source and that the subforms need [ItemCode="ABC123"] to run each query and return the data.
I need to pass the [ItemCode] from the Stock_Inventory form to each of the 2 Subforms that are on the Stock_Inventory_Sales_History form automatically.

I have a Form opening from Access Options. I would like to close this Form using the Timer. The following is the code I have used but it is not working.
Private Sub Cover_Page_Form_Load()
OpenTimer = Timer
End Sub
Private Sub Cover_Page_Form_Timer()
If (Timer - OpenTime) = 5 Then DoCmd.Close acForm, "Cover_Page_Form", acSaveYes
End Sub
Next question. If I can get this to work can I then use a DoCmd to open new Form within the code above or do I need a new process.

I have a Dynamic Search form, which I use to search for client, on the double click it takes me to the client, at which point I have the Forms Visible set to False.
When I click on a button to open that Form, the Visible turns back to True, however it shows my last search results, how do I clear it so that when I call it back up it is ready to search again, and my focus is set to the SearchFor box.

I have users who use a form to enter data. One of the fields is "DateRange". The users tend to enter records in groups. The group of 10 records will all have the same "DateRange" As they start a new record is there a way that the "DateRange" field can copy from the prior record?
Any help would be great!

Hi
I am building a forecasting database that will have known amounts entered for various projects. If a project has no known future amount (lets say for next March), I want my query to calculate a projected number by taking the most recent equivilent month (for this last March,which may be a number or even zero) and applying a growth factor.
I thought to use Dlookup in this way, but it is not working:
Amt: IIf(IsNull([Amount]),DLookUp([amount],"data_table",DateAdd("yyyy",-1,[data_table]![date])=[data_table]![date])*[growth],[amount])
I have created "placeholders" for the non-existant months in a prior query (i.e. this formula should replace null cells w/ projected values only if there is no actual value)
I would appreciate any suggestions very much!
thanks

I have a listbox with a record in it for every record that is entered on another form. To add a new record, you press the button Add New which I made. That takes you to another form, you can enter a new record and close that form.
I then want the listbox to requery and show the new record. I have tried requering the listbox on close of the other form, I have also tried doing it on the original form's Got Focus event. None of this works.

I am posting a report to the web, in a pdf format. the issue is I have data that is hidden under conditional formating in which if it meet the criteria the font is white and background white. This is great since it shows up blank on pdf. However if a slick person takes the pdf highlights the page and transfers it to a word document, he can highlight that area change the font to black and see the data. Is there a way to hide the data prior to creating a pdf.

I have a form (frmTimecardsDataEntry3*) that needs to requery combo boxes to narrow down the selections offered in the dropdown of each combo box.
It is a data entry form. I.e. Dataentry is set to yes.
The ClientName combo box has an after update event which requeries the matter combo box, so that the MatterName combo box dropdown only shows the matters relating to that client. This works just fine.
The MatterName combo box has an after update event which requeries the Rate combo box so that in the Rate combo box dropdown only the hourly charge rates relating to that matter are shown. That works too. So far so good.
I then tried adding another after update event to the MatterName combo box, so that another combo box, Application, was requeried too, so with the Private Sub it looked like:
Rate.Requery
Application.Requery
But this resulted in the error in the title to this post and the debugger highlighted in red the word Requery in the phrase Application.Requery.
I thought maybe Access does not allow two requeries resulting from one after update event, so instead I took Application.Requery out and placed it as an after update event in another combo box which did not have any other after update events to run.
However, this resulted in the same error.So the error appears to have something to do with trying to requery the Application combo box but I cannot see what is causing the error.
The Application combo box SQL is:
SELECT Applications.ApplicationID, [ApplicationDate] & " " & [ApplicationName] AS ApplicationDisplay, Applications.ApplicationDate, Applications.ApplicationName, Applications.MatterName
FROM Applications
WHERE (((Applications.MatterName)=[Forms]![frmTimecardsDataEntry3*]![MatterName]))
ORDER BY Applications.ApplicationDate, Applications.ApplicationName;
This is the same arrangement of SQL that I am using on the other requeried combo boxes that work. When I take the WHERE statement out of the Application SQL and run it the query returns all of the applications.
I am not sure what the error code is trying to tell me about the attempt to requery the Application combo box.
I have a yes/no box in the form and when the firm is first opened it has a small square dot in it, but as soon as any data is entered in the form the dot clears and leaves the usual empty tick box that you would expect to see.
Also, another possible symptom is that I had another version of this form previously working quite well except that when I did several data entries all at once, so I had several forms filled in with different data (before refreshing and thus entering the data in the table), when I scrolled between the forms I kept losing the MatterName data when I scrolled back, and then when I re-entered the ClientName data the correct MatterName data returned without me having to use the dropdown to select it.
I have had an earlier simpler version of this form working for some time, with ClientName requerying MatterName and MatterName requerying Rate, and I am using the same SQL structures in the new form but getting the error in the title to this post and the other isues just described.

I need to requery a subform from a third form and can't seem to get it to work.
frmForm1 has frmAddress as a subform. The button cmdReviseAddress opens the form frmUpdateAddress where all of my validation work is done and the new record is added.
However, the new address is not being displayed in the subform.
If I use the command
Forms![frmTest]![frmAddress].Requery
it works fine.
The problem is that I want to be able to frmAddress on any form, and need to pass the name of the main form (in this case frmForm1) as a variable.
If lsTemp = "frmForm1", the statement
Forms![lsTemp]![frmAddress].Requery (and every variation using brackets and quotes that I can think of) fails.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I tried all sorts of permutations of the requery command but apparently I'm too dense to figure it out.
Form 1
subform 1 > button to open pop up form
subform 2
subform 3
I'm trying to requery a combo box (inside of subform 1) based on a table that is updated from the pop up form.
On pop up form close, what's the correct syntax for re-querying subform 1?

I am building a student register for a school for disabled children. There is a screen listing all students, one showing detailed student data chosen by #=IIf(IsNull([ID]),"(New)","Open")# clicking on "Open", one listing all the guardians, choosing a guardian by #=IIf(IsNull([ID]),"(New)","Open")# clicking on "Open", to diaplay Guardian details.
From the student list, I select and view student details, including a pointer to their guardian details. After selecting the first student details, and then viewing their guardian data, any subsequent student details and guardian details updates the prior guardian data with the next guardian's data.
How can I prevent the successive guardian details from updating the prior guardian table when it is exited? I view the guardian details using ADO recordsets populating a form. When I exit, it updates the previous record.

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?

I am working with 2 forms and a subform.
frmTaskTracker -subfrmInbox (Datasheet View - based on a query)
frmUpdateInboxItem
subfrmInbox displays a summary of tasks on a task list. The user navigates to frmUpdateInboxItem from frmTaskTracker. After updating a record from frmUpdateInboxItem, it is possible that it the record in question will no longer meet the requirements to have it listed on subfrmInbox.
I have attempted to add code to the on close event of frmUpdateInboxItem to requery the sub form on frmTaskTracker but am not getting the syntax correct.
correct my code? Alternatively is there is a more correct way to do this, I'd be happy to learn it.
Code:
Option Compare Database
Private Sub cmdClose_Click()
Me.[frmTasktracker]![subfrmInbox].Requery
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmUpdateInboxItem"
End Sub

I have a form that shows a companies engagement with our company. If someone wants to edit the details of that company (address phone number etc...), they click the "edit" button, which then opens a form where edits can be performed.
After the edits are done, the user clicks a save and close button which runs docmd.runcommand acCmdSaveRecord, and returns to the companies engagement form.
When I return to the company engagement form, I would like to see the companies information reflect the changes that I just made. Currently, I can only do this by exiting the form and re-opening. I have tried using Me.Requery in the OnGotFocus, Activate and Current events to no avail.
I should mention that I have a company combo box with multiple columns that are used to display address, postal code, etc... in textboxes on the same form.

I have a form called Add New Delegation, i have combo box of Institution names on the main form and a subform for Agreements discussed. with a combo box called agreements. I successfully cascaded the combo boxes so that the agreements discussed on the subform are filtered by their respective institutions on the main form. However i am unable to refresh the list each time a new institution is selected as the Macro will not allow me to requery a control on the mainform from the subform..

I have a form (frmAddManifest) with a subform (subfrmManifestTransporters).
When creating a new record, I can enter data into frmAddManifest, but the subform doesn't update to link with the record - I presume it's because the record from the main form hasn't been completed yet.
Is there a way to requery the form and/or subform so it stays on the record I was working on, and link the subform properly?

I have a main menu that I select things to open. Most of the things I open I open in form view but some I want to open in data sheet view.
Without recoding my menu code is there a way to specify in the form to be opened that it should open in data sheet veiw?
Right now I have the default view as data sheet view in the forms but because my calling code is not specifying any view they default to form view, and again I don't want to edit that code in my main menu.

I new to this form and to access and hope to find an answer to my problem.
I have 3 tables and 3 forms
Table 1 - Form 1 --- Psych Patients
Table 2 - Form 2 --- Med patients.
Table 3 - Form 3 --- Primary Doctors.
Each form has a combo box with a list of Primary Doctors. If doctor is not in the list then we have the option to enter new information via Pop up form (form 3). At close the Pop up form requerys the cbo box.
Is there a way to use Form 3 (pop-up form) to re-query both forms at the same time even if only one of the forms is open?
FYI, Table 1 and Table 2 contain different information and the only thing both table have in common is the primary doctors.
As of now my code in the pop Up is:
Private Sub Form3_Close ()
Form_Form1!cboPhy.Requery
End Sub
Is the only alternative to create another form for the physicians and use it for Form 2?
