Forms :: Locate A Record On Multirecord Form By Using Findfirst Method
Mar 8, 2014
I am trying to locate a record on a multirecord form by using Findfirst method. Here is the code.
Dim UA1 As String, UAE1 As String, UA2 As String, UAE2 As String, UA3 As String, UAE3 As String, apost as string, repl as string
apost = "'"
repl = "''"
UA1 = Nz(Forms(ParName).Form.NAME, " ")
UAE1 = Replace(UA1, apost, repl)
[Code] ....
This code sometimes works and sometimes it does not work. The field CNO is a text field of 5 characters but contains the card numbers that is numeric data or nothing.
I am writing an event procedure to check to see if a particular Project number exist in a recordset. I am trying to use the findfirst method and are having some problems. Here is my code.
Private Sub Command3_Click()
Dim db As DAO.Database Dim rs As DAO.Recordset, ProjectNo As String, SqlStr As String, StrProjectNo As String
Set db = CurrentDb() Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tblTrackingSheetFrm", dbOpenTable) StrProjectNo = Me![ProjectNumber] rs.FindFirst StrProjectNo
MsgBox " Project worksheet already opened by another user."
rs.Close End If End Sub
What this does is check to see if another user has a project open and if so doesnt allow that user to access that project. I am getting the following error when I execute the procedure on the findfirst Code line.
Runtime error 3251 Operation is not supported by this object type. Can someone take a look and see what I am doing wrong. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I can't seem to figure out the proper syntax for the FindFirst method. I am using several variations of this effort:
Dim dbs As dao.Database Dim rst As dao.Recordset Set dbs = CurrentDb Set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset("tblInvoice", dbOpenDynaset) rst.FindFirst "rst!ID = frmInvoice!txtID"
I get an error message that says that Access doesn't recognize rst.ID as a valid field. But, it most certainly is. I tried substituting tblInvoice but got the same error.
I have a multirecord continuous form that displays the results of a query. At the end of each row there is a combobox displaying a list of form names. The user selects one of these forms from the list and program fetches the detail data in that selected form corresponding to the row where the cursor is. Now the beforeupdate or aferupdate or onclick functions do not work. Her are the properties of the combobox as JPG files and the code of the not working function.
Code: Private Sub Sbox_AfterUpdate() Dim ForName As String Dim ParName As String Dim QryName As String MsgBox "after update combo" ParName = Me.Form.Name Select Case Me.Sbox.Value
I got a combo box with a few columns for locating query activity. However, how can I make use of it to locate a particular record according to predefined values, for instance in a loop, to locate records. The combo box got 3 columns, just want to know the syntax to define the combo box according to some values. I need to define only the first colmun or all 3 columns??
I want to be able to make an exact copy of an existing record in a table and then change the value of a couple of the fields before writing it to the table as a new record.
What is the best way to go about this? I guess it is possible with select, update and append queries but I'd rather do it in code.
It sounds like it should be a simple and commonly performed exercise but I can't find anything on it.
My question is which method of finding the last record is best, QueryDef or Recordset? Here is my data:
Table: tbl_module_repairs
Field: aps_rma
Textbox to insert last record RMA into: txt_test
Here is some code I tried but get an invalid argument msgbox:
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' 'Opens last RMA into textbox (For opening tag sheet) Dim dbs As DAO.Database Dim rst As DAO.Recordset 'Get the database and Recordset Set dbs = CurrentDb Set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset("tbl_module_repairs")
I have a form "WorksheetList" that has a list of records upon which when one selects a record a new form opens "Worksheet" with the data from "WorksheetList" everything seemed to be working fine then suddenly I get the error "Method 'item' of object 'forms' failed"... Here's my code:
The problem I having is if I have a computer name of a computer on our network (not the one I am running the database on), is there a way using VBa to find the details about this machine.
For example if the computer name is 'DTP002133' I can click 'start' then 'search for files and folders' then click 'computers' in the search for other items. This search will give me the computer location and comments. I would like to be able to automate this process within my database.
Not sure if this one is possible but thought I'd pick you brains...
I'm very new to Access and especially VBA. How to get started with the correct syntax for locating a file, and printing it. The file will be a PDF and if possible I would like to declare a variable for the file name (not the path) so if it is changed I can just change the variable instead of looking for it in the code. I plan to have 10 of these.
Hello, I hope I have posted this to the correct forum? Anyways, I have started porting my database backend to MySQL after a spate of corruptions and speed degrading daily, I have managed to get most things functional but one thing which I can not get working is an odd thing with the FindFirst statement. I have the following line of code...
rst2.FindFirst "AwaitingStock=True and StockIn=False and DOA=False and Model='" & Trim(Me.Model) & "'"
which works find with Access backend but with MySQL I get the error...
Run-time error '3761': The decimal field's precision is too small to accept the numeric you attempted to add.
This is obviously not the correct error as I am not trying to add anything! If I remove the bit about the Model, the code executes fine, also, if I remove all the =True parts and just leave the Model part everything works fine so I guess it is because I am mixing string and integer fields in the search???
When, id do press the 'RecordWeergeven' button, Microsoft Visual Basic returns with a error. Method or data member not found. I think the error is located bij Me.Keuzelijst0. Do i have to declare a Listbox or create a second recordset. Please help.
Private Sub RecordWeergeven_Click() 'Me.RecordsetClone.Findfirst "[ID] = " & Me.lstList.ItemData(lstList.ListIndex) 'Me.Bookmark = Me.RecordsetClone.Bookmark Dim rst As ADODB.Recordset Set rst = Forms![FMR_users].RecordsetClone rst.FindFirst "usr_id=" & Me.Keuzelijst0 & "" Forms![FMR_users].Bookmark = rst.Bookmark DoCmd.Close acForm, "GaNaarRecord" End Sub
I just discovered the reason why my table has not been working the way I want it to. In my code below, I have set my rst to find the first record of the previous month which in itself is correct, however I just discovered that it is picking up the records in ascending order.
Here is my code: Option Compare Database Option Explicit
Private Sub Button5_Click()
Dim prevMonth As Integer Dim curMonth As Integer Dim prevYear As Integer Dim curYear As Integer Dim CurRecordMonth As Integer Dim rst As Recordset Dim rst2 As Recordset Dim db As Database Dim monthText As Variant
Set db = CurrentDb
'fill an array with the text for months names monthText = Array("", "Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec")
' find previous and current Year and month. If current month = jan then go back to Dec of the year before curMonth = Month(Date) curYear = Year(Date) prevYear = Year(Date) prevMonth = Month(Date) - 1
If prevMonth = 0 Then prevMonth = 12 prevYear = prevYear - 1 End If
' count number of existing records for current year and month ' If DCount("Month", "TTransactions", "month = '" & monthText(curMonth) & "' and year = " & curYear) = 0 Then
If DCount("Month", "tTransactions", "month = " & curMonth & " and year = " & curYear) < 2 Then 'if current month and year does not exist in table ' open table and find last months record Set rst = db.OpenRecordset("tTransactions", dbOpenDynaset) rst.FindFirst "month = " & prevMonth & " and year = " & prevYear ' open table again to write a new record Set rst2 = db.OpenRecordset("tTransactions", dbOpenDynaset) Do Until rst.NoMatch ' loop through all records meeting the criteria rst2.AddNew rst2![TelNo] = rst![TelNo] rst2!Year = curYear rst2!Month = curMonth rst2!Rental = rst!Rental rst2![Fees] = rst![Fees] rst2![Vat] = rst![Vat] rst2.Update rst.FindNext "month = " & prevMonth & " and year = " & prevYear Loop rst.Close rst2.Close Set rst = Nothing Set rst2 = Nothing End If Set db = Nothing
End Sub
Function CallButton5()
Call Button5_Click
End Function
I have put in an autonumber to assign sequential numbers to the records as they are entered. This I had hoped would allow me to sort my query by autonumber, however if the findfirst keeps finding the records in ascending order then I'm lost. Is there any way to get round this?
I am receiving the Method or data member not found error message when I attempt to add a new record in form view. I have been working in an old 2002-2003 version of Access until last week when it was converted to 2007. The old version allowed for additions just fine but now after the conversion something is wrong. The code is below. I underlined the line throwing the error message (FindFirst). Code is not my strong suit.
'Open form to new record gstrCallingForm = Me.Name strDocName = "frmNewApplicant"
I have an MS Access application which works fine until used with XP OS.
In XP if you open a report which is based on an ODBC linked table and try to send in RTF format as an attachement you get this error message:
MSACCESS.EXE - Unable to locate component This application has failed to start because BJABLR32.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
The error only occurs for reports using ODBC tables as a data source for which you need to enter an ID and password. Other reports can be sent normally using Outlook etc.
I have a procedure that searches a table (recordset 1) for values in a lookup table (recordset 2) using FindFirst / FindNext. The routine worked fine until recently, I now have two issues;
I have included a new country in the lookup table - Cote D'Ivoire, now I get an error message when it reaches this name. I guess it's the " ' " that is causing the problem but don't know how to get round it!!??
I have modified the program so I can select the field I want to search from a form (thanks John) but it won't accept the field name as it's not part of the recordset e.g. rstTempTable.findfirst "[Field] = etc. How can I pass the chosen field from the form to the recordset?
Need a little help with a record selector. I ask it to find a record and bookmark it. No problem. If record doesnt exist I get the value from a control and run a Insert Into command into my table creating a new record with that case #.
Now how do I modify the code below to make the new record just inserted into the bookmarked record. See sample code below. I'm not too practiced when it comes to this recordset business.
Any help is appreciated
Private Sub FindTheRecord() ' Find the record that matches the control. Dim rs As Object Dim Answer As String Dim aSQL As String
Set rs = Me.Recordset.Clone rs.FindFirst "[CaseNo] = " & Str(Nz(Me![CaseNo])) If rs.NoMatch Then Answer = MsgBox("No Matching Case Number Found." & vbCrLf & "Would you like to start a new" & vbCrLf & "record using this case number?", vbYesNo) If Answer = 6 Then DoCmd.SetWarnings False aSQL = "Insert Into Main ([CaseNo])Values ([Forms]![frmMain]![CaseNo]);" DoCmd.RunSQL aSQL DoCmd.SetWarnings True
DoCmd.GoToRecord acDataForm, "frmMain", acLast Code: Original - Code ' does not recognize the last record just added to the table, is there a command I can use here? ' does not recognize the last record just added to the table, is there a command I can use here?
Else MsgBox "Action Cancelled" CaseNum = "" CaseNumYear = "" DoCmd.GoToControl "CaseNum" End If Else Me.Bookmark = rs.Bookmark Call EnableControls End If End Sub
In order to act as a system, I would like to have a function or windows firstly displayed all the folder names in a drive, and then allow user to locate/select freely a folder among different folders. Is there anything for my reference or for me to start??
I have a table that was linked from a SQL Server with a file DSN. It was linked years ago so now I want to locate that specific DSN file for that specific table if possible.
I have a database I took over, that generally uses linked tables to a MYSQL servers on another machine. The Access database uses a machine DSN to connect.
There are many queries that contain references to linked tables using another name. For example, the table is "service unit" but the queries are using "SU" as a reference. I cannot find any database object with that name SU. There are many such tables referenced like this - all uppercase letters, which is a common thing they all share.
Now, the server had a file integrity issue, and now the queries that contained the SU references will not work anymore. I created a linked table and called it SU and but the queries still won't work until I edit the queries, remove the old SU table, and add the new one in. So,
1. Where those table references could have come from, if it's not a linked table? Is there a hidden location on the server, or in the access database that stores another connection method?
2. Why won't simply adding a similarly named database object work the same way? Why must I re-edit all the queries?
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.
Hi, I have code for a command button that allows me to save the form information to 7 different tables primary key (the same primary key), owever when i close the form it resaves the information and i get a duplicate error msg. Is there anyway to get around this? Can I change what happens when the form is closed. i tried to apply this code to Form_Close() but to no avail.
I am getting method of data member not found for the following code when inserting values to a table. Form has three frames. Add/Insert is on OnClick Event.
