Modules & VBA :: How To Make Label Visible On A Report If A Textbox Is Empty
May 10, 2014I'm working on a report. I have a text box that contains directory path for a picture which is showed in a image box on my report which works great. I have now created a label called "nopiclb" that has "no Pic "entered in it but I want to set the label to not visible if path1 has a file path in it but visible if path1 is empty
I put the code below in onformat event in the detail section, but is not working
Code:
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
If IsNull(Me.path1) = True Or Me.path1 = "" Then
Me.Nopiclb.Visible = True
Else
Me.Nopiclb.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
Modules & VBA :: Unable To Make A Label Visible On A Form During Print
May 9, 2014I am trying to make a label visible on a form during print if a field has "like a string". We use a form so that it prints 3 forms to one page (They are tags for units for repair). I can get the label to be visible in the form view but when I print, the label is visible on every record where it is only visible on the current record in form view. My goal is to have the label only show on those records where the condition is met.
Here is my code that works in form view only: (It is to designate easier a warranty tag from a new repair tag)
Code:
If Me.Problem_Description Like "Warr*" Then
Me.lbl_w.Visible = True
Else
Me.lbl_w.Visible = False
End If
I have attached an image of a tag sheet Tag_Sheet_W.jpg. As you can see if I got my desired result only the first tag would have a W.

Code Triggered From Label On Click Behaves Differently From Command Button On Click
Nov 7, 2006Often I use Labels as buttons due to the fact I can colour them the way I want, and use the on click event to trigger code.
The code below however works for a command button, but not a label button.
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmdatetime"
Do While Forms!frmdatetime!OKFlag.Caption = "False"
DoEvents
Loop
When this code is run by clicking on a command button, it works fine.
If run by clicking on a label, frmdatetime opens, but the mouse will not work on either of the 2 open forms unless you go down to the windows task bar, jump onto another window, and back onto frmdatetime.
If I remove the loop with the DoEvents in it, then the problem does not occur.
Can anyone enlighten me as to why this behaviour occurs.
Thanks

Forms :: Make Visible When Field Is Not Empty
Oct 6, 2013I've got a memo field on a form where the name is TextEXTRA
The Control Source for TextEXTRA is EXTRA.
I've got a box called BoxSHOW (Visible = No)
As I browse through records or find records, I want the box to become visible when there is something in the EXTRA field and become invisible when the EXTRA field is empty. This is what I've tried .....
Private Sub Form_Current()
If EXTRA Is Not Null Then
BoxSHOW.Visible = True
End If
End Sub
I tried many variations on the first line such as ...
Me.EXTRA "EXTRA" TextEXTRA
but I always get errors.
Modules & VBA :: Make Controls Visible Or Not Visible?
Mar 24, 2015I have a Main Form with a Sub-Form, the sub-form is base off a query. on the sub-form i have 8 controls, one of them is "Status' and "Process" and "Review" My Main Form have a Refresh command that refreshes the data in the sub-form.
What i am trying to do is make the "Process" Control only visible is "Status" is a certain status and "Review" visible if "Status" is something else. what i have done works correctly On Open. I run into and issue on the refresh command. I get Run-time error '2165' "You can't hide a control that has the focus"
Code:
If Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Status = "Ready" Then
Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Process.Visible = True
Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Review.Visible = False
ElseIf Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Status = "Reviewing" Then
Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Review.Visible = True
Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Process.Visible = False
End If
I have done similar with a main form and making sub-form visible or not based on a control on a main form and that has worked perfectly. I am not sure how the control is getting focus and cause the error.
Forms :: Select Via Combobox - Make Numerous Controls Visible
Sep 18, 2013I have a form where i select via a combo box if a product has been inspected, if it has, additional controls are then made visible.
If Me.Inspection_Completed = "Yes" Then
Me.Date_Inspection_Comp.Visible = True

I tried to put this in a function so i could call it on load, or on current etc, but cant seem to get it to work, apparently you cannot use the me. in a function.
Choosing Fields From Combo Box To Make Fields Visible
Aug 30, 2004I have a combo box linked to a look-up table. There are 8 fields in the look-up table but only if one of three is chosen do I want additional combo boxes to become visible. Do I put the code in the "after update" or "on change" event of the combo box and how do I express the code-
If TechniqueCombo="caudal" or "spinal" or "epidural" then
TextNeedleType.Visible=True
(am I close??)
Thanks
Label Visible Iif Other Field Value=
Feb 15, 2008Hi.
I am trying to get a text label to only be visible if the values of 2 other form objects are of a specific value.
This is what I've been trying to do after VAT is changed:
=IIf([Forms]![Jobs]![JobCategoryList]=2 AND [Forms]![The Sale]![VAT]=0.175, [VATWarning].Visible=-1,[VATWarning].Visible=0)
But, it just isn't working.
If anyone can spot the problem in the mess of code I'd appreciate it. Thanks. Martin
Label Visible Property Problem
Mar 30, 2005Hi
I have a form where the processing is a little slow and I want to advise the user that something is actually happening!
So I put a label on the form (lblWait) with a suitable message. The visible property is set to Yes.
On the form open event I put
Me.lblWait.visible = False
This makes the label invisible as expected. On the code behind the run button I started it off like this
Set cnn = CurrentProject.Connection
Set rst = New ADODB.Recordset
' Reveal wait message
Me.lblWait.Visible = True
' Delete any extant records in tblTmpReportDates
cnn.Execute "DELETE * FROM tblTmpReportDates"
However, my wait message stays invisible throughout the whole process. All the other processing goes fine.
I sense I am either using the wrong procedure to put up a wait message but shouldn't this work?
Any words of wisdom would be most appreciated, especially if they solve the problem!!
Thanks in advance and best wishes

View 2 Replies View RelatedProblem Making A Label Visible In A Subform! URGENT - Please HELP!!!
Nov 16, 2005Hi guys,
I have a form (frmMain) which contains 3 subforms and they are being set to visible at different stages of application run (depending on the options selected).
In subfrm_Main_options i have 3 buttons, clicking on 'Job Review' will make the subfrm_Search visible. In the subfrm_Search i have 2 labels, 'View Jobs' and 'View Report' and I only want the 'View Jobs' to be visible!
I have tried setting the visible property of this label to False in the subfrm_Main_Options but its giving me an error (saying the form subfrm_Search is closed or does not exist in the database!). I also tried using a Global Variable (ViewJobs - declared in module mdlPublicVars) and set it to True once the 'Job Review' is clicked in the subfrm_Main_Options form, and then look at this in subfrm_Search and then display the correct label. However after trying to put this code in various events such as, On Open, On Got Focous, On Activation, ... i didnt get the result i wanted!
Can any1 please help me out with this. I would be really grateful!
PS. The buttons appearing on the form are placed on the frmMain, I did that to see if it appears on the main form but they must be in subfrm_Search!
The database is attached!
Thanks, Maisam
Reports :: Text Label Conditionally Visible On Report?
Dec 31, 2013I'm running Access 2003 and my question relates to delivery notes that are produced for drivers as reports. These delivery notes have a blank payment box for the driver to complete if the customer pays upon delivery.
As more and more customers are prepaying by credit cards, I'd like this payment box to be automatically filled with a "PAID" text which will let the driver know the order has already been paid for.
The delivery note is produced from an "Orders" table which has a "Paid" field whose value is automatically set to "Yes" when the order has been paid for.
I was hoping to be able to place a "PAID" label on the report which is only visible when the Paid field of the underlying query is Yes.
As things are at the moment I cannot see any way to put any conditional statement onto this Text/Label. The only options for the "Is Visible" property of the text are Yes or No.
Forms :: Display Label Within A Combo Box

Problem Making A Label Visible In Subform! Continue Of Previous Post! Please Help!
Nov 16, 2005I sent a post earlier today about making a label visible in a subform! I am still working on it but still no progress!
I have a different scenario (its the same thing but trying to explain the method i'm working on):
I have one main form (frmMain) that contains 3 subforms, say subfrm1, subfrm2 and subfrm3. On Open only 1 is visible and 2 and 3 are invisible (however they are open and loaded).
By choosing an option on 1 subfrm2 becomes available! When choosing an option on subfrm1 a boolean called 'XXX' is set to true. Now i want one particular label to become visible in subfrm2 if 'XXX' is true! To do this i need to write a code to be executed when subfrm2 is appears on screen! The problem is this form is already open so how and on which event of subfrm2 can i write the code???
At the moment i'm trying to refresh subfrm2 (by using code in subfrm1) and I have placed my code on the On Load event of subfrm2. I thought this way the form will reload and the On Loand event will pick up the new value for boolean XXX and set the label to visible! Thats the idea anyway... here is the code i have in subfrm1:
XXX = True
Forms![frmMain].subfrm2.Form.Refresh
subfrm1.Visible = False
subfrm2.Visible = True
I'm not sure if refreshing the subform will result in On Load event to be executed! And i'm not even sure that the code for refreshing subfrm2 is correct. Can any1 help me with this?
I have attached the actual database on my previous post sent today, if you prefer to look at the whole thing and get a feel of the problem!
Forms :: Make Listbox Visible After Selection Of Another Listbox
Oct 23, 2013Okay then, after much trouble and confusion, I finally realized I need to use an Extended listbox in order to allow for multiple items to be selected from a list on my form (rather than the evil multiple selection combobox!).
However, now I am trying to figure out how to make one listbox (IndustryClassification) only be visible if the item "Industry" is selected in another listbox (TypeOfBusiness). Coding I can use for this in the AfterUpdate event of the listbox?

Oct 2, 2013Imagine that you see a column of values and then a total at the bottom. The only issue is that the total value does not appear until you click on it.
Any setting that would cause a total value in a footer section to not appear automatically?
Behavior is noticed on reports as well as subreports. An image is attached.. Imagine the $37,000,000 simply not appearing until it is clicked with the mouse.

Forms :: Visible / Non-visible Combobox - Column Attribute?
Oct 17, 2013I have a combobox on my form called TypeOfBusiness, with fields including Corporation, Education, Industry, Non-Profit. In order to make a second combobox called IndustryClassification appear when Industry is selected from the TypeOfBusiness combobox, I have used the following code:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
If Me.TypeOfBusiness = "Industry" Then
Me.IndustryClassification.Visible = True
Else
Me.IndustryClassification.Visible = False
[Code] .....
It works just fine. However, when a user selects both, say, Industry and Education, the IndustryClassification combobox will not appear. What code I can use to ensure the IndustryClassification box will appear regardless if another box is checked in addition to Industry? I am wondering if it has to do with the Column attribute.
