I have a drop down box where I select a Retailer. When this choice is made I want the last invoice entry to appear in a text box. I have attempted this by creating a query which contains the top 1 invoice in descending order. My dropdown box Event updates a hidden List box using List677. Requery and List677 has a SELECT statement in Row Source
So far so good this bit works
I want to use this value as a default in a Textbox. I thought I could use the same trick to populate the Textbox as I did the Listbox so i tried Text232. Requery after the List677. Requery in the Event above. But no it does not update. The only time the textbox updates is if the Listbox is in Focus and as I said this List box is Hidden. How can I get the textbox to change in real time... I would use the Listbox but i need to be able to change the value of the contents to run reports, I just want a default value.
textBox Default Value: =[List677]
textBox Control Source: =[List677]
List677 Row Source: SELECT LastInvoice.Invoice FROM LastInvoice;
The five listbox controls each show the list by the IngredientType, so one listbox shows vegetables, another Meat, and so on. Multi-select is turned on for each listbox. Here is what I want to do: In the form I want to have a subform that will show what the user clicks in listboxes. This running list, with an extra column next to it that will accept a number. Example: say the user selects 'Ham' from the meat listbox. The subform should then show 'Ham' and a space next to it where he can type an integer (allowing for more meat).
Subform:
Ham | 2 Lettuce | 1 Mayo | 1 Subroll | 1
If the user de-selects the item in the listbox I'd like the subform to delete the item from itself.
I am developing a form whereby the user types a single character or a sequence of characters into textbox and a query WHERE clause is compiled upon each character being entered.
The query is the Row Source of a listbox which I requery upon each change in the text box contents.
In the Change event I cannot access the new contents of the textbox until focus moves to another control and then back to the textbox. This is not how I expect this event to work.
I am trying to populate a textbox from a field in a table based on clicking on a item in a listbox. User clicks a name from the Client table in the client field, and the date that is stored in the orderDate in the same row. I want the text11 textbox to show that date.
Me.TxtNotAllowed.Visible = True dtTimer1 = Now dtTimer2 = Now + TimeValue("00:00:10") Me.TxtNotAllowed.Value = "You do not have permission to use this database !" Do Until dtTimer1 >= dtTimer2 dtTimer1 = Now() Loop Me.TxtNotAllowed.Value = "" DoCmd.Quit
The above code will run definitely for the 10 seconds however the textbox and contents do not display HOWEVER if stepped through with breakpoints line by line and the form checked each time the textbox DOES display and its contents.
I have a field called "Bad Pc Part" which is a listbox. THe problem is I want it to display the contents of 3 other fields from another table.
I created a query for the Bad Pc Part field but the problem is it only displays the information in the first field of the table. It doesnt show the contents of the other columns. I need it to do this.
I created a report that would generate, among others, a listbox on monthly payments. How do I make it spill-over to the next page when its contents have already exceeded that of a single paper?
I would like to type a value into a list box and then press a command button and have that value transfer to a list box for later use. I've been playing with the onclick event of my command button and this is what I have so far:
Code:
Option Compare Database Private Sub Command4_Click() List0.AddItem Text2.Text List0.ListIndex = List0.ListCount - 1 End Sub
When I click the button I get an error:
2185 - You can't reference a property or method for a control unless the control has the focus.
i have a lists of emails+domain names eg camae@yahoo.com. im trying to sort them in reverse order but "reverse" seems not working in access. anyone knows how to do them or i was thinking of sorting the list begin with the domain names (which is after the '@') but i dont know how. ive tried using "like "*@[a-d]" but the result displayed is not sorted in alphabetic order. sorry im a beginner. thanks in advance
My printer does not have a "print mirror image" setting. Is there a way to create a report that would show on the screen as a mirror image?
The application here is that the informartion would be printed on iron-on material and then transferred to a t-shirt as a souvenir. Currently, I do a screen capture, crop and flip the image in Adobe and then print it, but I would like to set it up so that anyone could use the database without my intervention nor using a second application. Reducing steps users need to take is a must.
Here's a link to a post with background (see the relationships image at the top): [URL] .....
So I got everything to work exactly as I wanted it to.. the listbox has its rowsrc manually changed via VB on form open or record change... so everytime the record changes or the form opens, VB creates a query string that pulls the TFE_Num and TFE_Name from the DB for only those records where the forms current key (me.key.value) equals the TFE_key values. And everything works.
The problem is that this VB based query is very slow... so everytime the record changes, we wait 1-5 seconds for this listbox to pull data and display it. My question is this: Is there a better way to do this, some way that doesn't require VB based SQL statement. I'm asking because all the non-listbox controls on the form use a control source and they get updated instantaniously on form open or record move, but the list boxes that are unbound and are populated using VB SQL are really slow... and there are really only 1 or 2 records ever displayed in the list box.
I have tried to set the rowsource for the list box within the properties tab and comment out the VB SQL code, but haven't succeeded. I suspect the issue is that the form is linked to all fields in the master table while the list box is linked to a 1st and 2nd generation child table... I just can't get it to work! I've tried simple adding the TFE tables and fields to the forms record source poperties, but when I do that I can only navigate to records that have TFEs associated with them.
I suspect I could resolve the issue myself, if only access queries allowed "me.key.value" to be used in the WHERE statement. Am I correct that you cannot do this in Accesses query builder or the SQL version? When I tried, it worked but then I notices the me.key.value got converted to a number (the first record) when it ran the first time.
hi, i have list box and the source coming form Query. i want when i click on one in list box want it will show [faults] field in textbox from query the field [faults] is a memo can someone help me __________________ David
I am totally new to ms access form development. I have to construct a form with a text box a command button and listbox. listbox contains the list of items.I have populated the list box with the items in the tables.Now on the same page I have to add new item via text box and when click command button it should be added(all these thing I have done). Problem is that I have to do some thing like if a type any letter in the text box all listbox item are arrange like that like
If Items are abcd,aaaa,aabb, aa,abb,bba,bcd,bab I enter ba in the textbox then itme should be arrange like
In the past a Teacher would manually create a Form (Student Form) containing Student information, (Name, Gender, Birthdate, Homegroup) as well as additional issues on the student. This would all be saved into a table.
I would like to change this manual process of typing in individually to each text box, therefore, I have been able to run a report from a external program that obtains (Name, Gender, Birthdate, Homegroup). This saves as CSV and I am able to import into a separate table within the database. This works no problem.
What I have set-up is a form that contains a listbox this contains the Student name and Homegroup from the imported table contents. Again this works fine.
What i would like to do is when a student is selected from the listbox and dbl clicked on, how can i make information (Name, Gender, Birthdate, Homegroup) populate the textboxes in the Student form that the teacher previously used? could this be an update query where the imported table information will then go into the Student form? If so, how can I tell the dbl click of highlighted name is the data i want to populate?
I have built a contacts manager based on an Outlook export (I know I can link the two programs, but I wanted to customize the contacts a bit further). I built the database in a way that phone numbers, addresses, etc. allow for multiple entries for each person under the same column using a foreign key. The only difference is a field called "Type" which designates the entry for Home, Work, etc. The issue I ran into is when I queried the data I get multiple entries for the same record. As you are all likely aware, Access repeats the data in a query for each different case. For example if Bob Jones has a personal and work phone number, Access will show the results in a query like this:
1. Bob Jones 555-555-5555 Personal 1. Bob Jones 555-222-2222 Work 2. Jerry Smith 555-111-1111 Personal
If I kept the data in Access it wouldn't necessarily be an issue. However, I want to be able to export the data in an excel file. How do I get Excel to return the data so it looks like this:
1. Bob Jones 555-555-5555 Personal 555-222-2222 Work 2. Jerry Smith 555-111-1111 Personal
I am using the selections made of the form to generate a query for the user.
I have a CITIES listbox that is populated with values from a stored query.
I would like to make it multi-select and populate a LOCATIONS list box and a NAMES list box based upon the CITIES that are selected.
I have the locations currently populated from a stored query that reads the City selection from the Form. It looks like this
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT (t_location.LOCATION) AS Expr1 FROM t_location INNER JOIN t_asset_master ON t_location.LOCATION_PHY_ID = t_asset_master.LOCATION WHERE (((t_location.CITY)=[Forms]![MasterQueryGenerator]![CityList]));
I also want multi-select so that is you can un-select all and get the results for all cities.
Here is my half thought approach.
Code:
Private Sub CityList_AfterUpdate() 'Dim LocQryStr As String 'Dim r As Integer 'Dim ctl9 As Control 'LocQryStr = "SELECT DISTINCT (t_location.LOCATION) " & _
[Code] ...
I intended to have the variable LocQryStr as the row source but I abandoned the idea of having multi-select when I saw that .Selected(I) never returned true. Its like the values aren't read in this subroutine.
I have a list box called "product list box" based on a query called "searchqry", i also have another listbox called "type list box" , how do i get the type list box to only show "types" based on the section in products list box?
My form has a listbox (lstHeatTreatments - Multi-Select disabled) that displays Heat Treatment descriptions and an unbound textbox (txtHTDetails) that I would like to have display the corresponding memo field when a description is selected from the listbox.
This is my code so far:
Code: Private Sub lstHeatTreatments_AfterUpdate() Dim myConnection As ADODB.Connection Dim myRecordSet As New ADODB.Recordset Dim mySQL As String Dim selectedRequirementKey As Long Set myConnection = CurrentProject.AccessConnection Set myRecordSet.ActiveConnection = myConnection
1. On my main form, I have a listbox, I would like to edit the values of the listbox.
To do this, I have a popup form with 2 listboxes, one to have the values of the listbox on the main form, and the other listbox with option values for the 1st
1) how to i pass the rowsource sql of the listbox on the main form to the listbox on the popup form
2) how on closing the popup form, do i update the rowsource sql listbox on the main form from the changed value of the popup form listbox rowsource sql
Okay 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?
I have a date textbox (Week_Ending) and number textbox (Staff_ID) in a form (frmHourEnter), when both have values I open another form (frmStaffReport) with textboxes (txtDateStart and cmbStaff).
How do I open the second form with the values of the first form pre-entered?
I have a database for billing. In my database, I have a form that consists of a main form "Order" and 2 subforms "OrderDetails" and "Customer" OrderDetails are to enter the products to be connected to the Order. All function super, but I want to have some information from one of the forms "copied" over to on of the others.
Here is what I would like
In the subform "OrderDetails" I have made a textbox that summarize all prices to a total, his tekstbox i called "Tekst31". I would like the amount in this textbox to appear in a field "Bel�b" in the main form "Order".
I have tried some different commands, but nothing has worked, also I have made a query which dose the same ting as the tekstboks, as the information in that tekstbox it not stored anywhere.
I have defined a recordsource based on a predefined query. Now I intend to use the SQL statement which works to produce other recordsources based on other queries. More concretely here is my code as of now:
Code: Dim J1 As Long Dim SQLRecordSource As String J1 = Forms(ParName).MemID SQLRecordSource = "SELECT DISTINCTROW [MembersTbl].* FROM [MembersTbl]" & _ "INNER JOIN [ActiveMembersQy] ON " & _ "[MembersTbl].[MemID] = [ActiveMembersQy].[MemID] " & _ " WHERE [ActiveMembersQy].[MemID] = " & J1 & ";"
In the future instead of writing it like this:
Code: Select Case QryName Case "NonMembersQy" SQLRecordSource = "SELECT DISTINCTROW [MembersTbl].* FROM [MembersTbl]" & _ "INNER JOIN [NonMembersQy] ON " & _ "[MembersTbl].[MemID] = [NonMembersQy].[MemID] " & _ " WHERE [NonMembersQy].[MemID] = " & J1 & ";"
[Code] ....
I wish to write it like this (which does not work):
Is this possible ie put the name of the variable that holds the name of the query in quotes or sometimes put the name of the query instead of the contents of the name. If there is a contents function for variables in VBA that can be used by I doubt whether it exists.
