Hi,
I have a Form that is modal and popup, and which opens without the MS Access in the background. It is like a separate window (piece of program) that runs under Windows XP.
If I move the Form on my screens (I have dual monitors) I would like that the messages that are triggered by various actions to appear on top of the form not - for example - on the other screen .
I can add more info if necessary.
Thanks for help.

View 2 Replies View RelatedBasically I have a Customer Form, which I have a New party button on it,this button opens up the party form to a new party, what I would like it to do is open up a new party but make the new party for the customer I had selected in the previous form.I have tried the GoTo macro's but cannot seem to get it to work.
I am thinking on clicking the button it will need to get the Customer ID, and then open the party form, create new party, and paste in the Customer ID, which then updates the Name - Date - Address - Company Fields.
I have one table containing name of restaurant with its address etc. Then i created another table to list out the restaurant workers names and details. Just as an example,
Table:Restaurant
Restaurant name
Address line 1
Address line 2
Restaurant #
Website
Table:StaffContact
Staff Role
Name
speciality
email
phone
I have the main form that has all the restaurant details only. And i have another form containing the Staff information. Please note the two table have a relation and it works well.
Now to make it user friendly(basically easier for the lazy ones), I dragged the staff contact form on to my main form and displayed it as a datasheet(basically a sub form).
Now, my boss does not want users to add/delete on this sub form(datasheet). So,he wants me to create buttons to open new record of staff for each restaurant(new form)
My issue is with opening a new record to enter a new person to the staff list and give them a role as well in form view.The new form has
So i ran a Macro, with open form with Where condition
Code:
[Staffcontact]![Rest Name]=[Forms]![MainForm]![RestaurantName]
But, it does not work .
I have a continuous form in which I put a command button for each record called "detail". I would like to click on the "detail" button and make it open another form containing all (and only) the info on this record.
At first I refused to use an "id" to link both forms, but finally I added the "id" in the table... however still does not work.
continuous form: "04 - GASTOS_BUSQUEDA"
id field on continuous form: "Gastid"
pop-up (details) form: "GASTOS_EDITAR"
id on pop-up (details) form: "editar_id"
This is what I have tried on the "click" properties of the "details" button field (called "btn_editgs"):
1)
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", acNormal, , "[editar_id] = " & Me.Gastid
2)
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , "[editar_id]=" & Me.Gastid
3)
stLinkCriteria = "[editar_id]=" & Me![Gastid]
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , stLinkCriteria
4)
Private Sub btn_editgs_Click()
On Error GoTo btn_editgs_Click_Err
Dim strWhere As String
strWhere = "[editar_id] = " & Me.Gastid
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , strWhere
btn_editgs_Click_Exit:
Exit Sub
btn_editgs_Click_Err:
MsgBox Error$
Resume btn_editgs_Click_Exit
End Sub
I'm working on the Navigation Form template in Access 2010, which is new to me. It appears that one needs to use the BrowseTo command to open up a form in the built-in subform module. I'm trying to create a couple of buttons where each button opens a form in a different data mode; one in read-only and one in add mode. Here is the syntax I used for read-only:
DoCmd.BrowseTo acBrowseToForm, "frmSales","frmNavigation.NavigationSubform", , ,acFormReadOnly
frmSales is the Sales form I want both of the buttons to open and frmNavigation is the Navigation form. It seems to be ignoring the data mode part at the end however. It only will open in Edit mode. Is there something I'm doing wrong with this command?
I am trying to create a proposal log for my company to make things easier to track. I have made a multiple items form to list the proposals. I want to be able to double click the record to open up another form (that i have already created) that shows the information from the proposal table and the proposal details table. So.....
I want to double click the field named "Proposal Name" and have it open up to form i have called "proposals details form".
I have a main form[frmResearchNotes] with combo box controls that filters a query populating [subfrmNotelist] containing several records from the filtered query. From there, I double click on a field within one of the remaining records, [CompanyName] for example, and it opens the new form[frmNoteDetail]. The problem is that second form is not displaying that selected record. The second form's record source has been set to the same query so when it loads, it displays the same info but it's displaying the 1st record out of the entire filtered list, not the record I clicked on in that list.
I figured I could use the strWhere function to copy the record I selected in the event procedure and then open the new form with those details. Not sure how to actually do this with VBA or if it's even the correct approach.
I would like to know if it's possible to open an specific subform inside a navigation form using an event.
I also need to to this using macros ( really can't use vba in this project =/)
Form example:
the main form has "nav_opt1", "nav_opt2", "nav_opt3"
By double clicking a record in "nav_opt1", it will open "nav_opt2" with some filters (but all in the same window), as if I was just browsing through the navigation forms usually.
how to write code to open a second form on the click of a button on the first form and specifically to continue on the record set I am focusing on.
I have 2 tables. The first is tblAccount (fields: AccountID [the PK]; AccountHolder) and the 2nd is tblUser (fields: UserID [the PK]; UserName; AccountID). They are linked so that one account can have multiple users. Each has a respective form; frmAccount and frmUser.
My goal is that once the AccountHolder field has been populated in frmAccount I can click a button to open frmUser with the AccountID field already showing in the form header.
I have managed to do something similar by selecting from a combo box before but I am having trouble making this work after directly populating the AccountHolder field and using an open Form button.
When I have a form called "SiteForm" open and click a button "NewCalloutButton" I would like it to open up a form called "CalloutFormEntry"
I've done this using
Private Sub cmdOpenDetail_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "CalloutFormEntry", , , "CalloutID = " & Me!CalloutID
End Sub
However this brings up all the records linked to the calloutID
What I'm after is to open the CalloutFormEntry from the SiteForm in a dataentry kind of format but to carry over the current SiteID based on which site is open on the SiteForm. That way there's no user error logging callouts to incorrect sites.
I'm trying to open a form with a subform from a separate form. I've never had any issue before, but all of the sudden, the subform doesn't seem to open immediately. I get the error
Code:
Method 'Form' of object '_SubForm' failed.
After that, it opens (subform and all), but some calculated text fields just say "#Name?#"
The only thing I did today was add a command button to that subform.
When I try opening the form (or subform) from the navigation pane, I get
Code:
The expression On Current you entered as the event property setting produced the following error:
A problem occurred while Contracts was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX Control
When I step through the code, it doesn't reach the On Current event.
I am trying to have cascading forms running on my database. The first form adds a new staff member. When you press the next button this happens...
Private Sub Command12_Click()
DoCmd.Close
DoCmd.OpenForm "Frm2"
End Sub
But I want it to open Frm2 using the ID from the previous form. The stumbling block for me is I close the first form before opening the next so I cant pass the ID across.
I have a list if names, some with a middle initial and some without, that are all in one field. eg George P Wingrove or Ada Wingrove. Can I run a query that will seperate the name into two or three fields? I have tried the following in a query, but not being very successful. FirstName:Left([Name],InStr(1,[Name]," ")-1), MiddleInitialTrim(Mid([Name],InStr(1,[Name]," ")+1,InStr(InStr (1, [Name], " ")+1,[Name]," ")-InStr(1,[Name]," "))) and LastName:IIf(InStr(InStr([Name]," ")+1,[Names]," ") <>0, Right([name],Len([name])-InStr(InStr([Name]," ")+1,[Name]," ")),Right([Name],Len([Name])-InStr([Name]," ")))
Unfortunately, it puts #Error if there is no middle initial. Any way round this problem?

how to give the option to open either forma or formb with a command button.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIm using the below code to open a from depending on what option is selected on a combobox.
Code:
Private Sub DirectPCombo_Click()
Dim cboVal As String
Dim stDocName As String
cboVal = Me.DirectPCombo.Value
Select Case cboVal
Case "One"
[code]....
If you select the first item [One] it will open the correct form [TestOne]. But when you select any of the others an error comes up saying that the name is no a form. So I added
Code:
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName
But the no items would select.I know If split the reports form the forms and make two comboboxes it would work, but it would be better it both could be in the same combobox.
I have a continuous form that is based on a query. I would like to have an open button so that you can select a record on the form and that particular record opens up in a new form. How do I do this?
If this cant be achieved would I be able to make a form open that shows a particular record based on the query and you just press next record to view the other records that are a result of the query?
I have a main form. It's only contents is an unbound combobox, and it's used to filter down (via a query) the details in it's sub form (I'm using it to load different account information, rather then type it in all the time).Anyway, I also have another form (Dashboard, or mainmenu) which summarises activity within Each account and is displayed via a datasheet.
What I'm trying to do is double click the accountname (on the main menu)which will then open up the necessary form and load the value from the datsheet accountname, in to the newly opened forms cbo, where I can apply the form to requery on load.I'm going to have to DIM the value, and docmd.openform etc...

I am trying to open a form from my main form and populate fields from one to the other (then press a button).if the form is opened in dialog mode then the code won't run to populate the form (until it is closed or not visible).
The main form is showing an address, but the user can click a button to amend this. Once clicked, the Property Form is opened - I don't want the user to need to fill in all the address details again. I want this pulled through from the main form so the user can make an amendment, then save the new address.
Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmPropertySearch", , , , , acDialog
With Forms!frmPropertySearch
.Form.Visible = False
If Not IsNull(Me.Building_Name) Then
strBuildingName = Me.Building_Name
.txtBuilding_Name = strBuildingName
End If
End With
I have a form that uses a query to filter out records to show basic info of records (each one has a unique ID) only pertaining to today that are listed one under the other using a whole row. What I'm looking for is a way to design a button for these filtered records within that row that when clicked, will open up a new form that I've already designed for just that ID.
