Forms :: Pass Parameters From Form To Sub Form Without Vba
Jul 15, 2013
i have a form with a sub form and combobox, when i select item i want that the sub form will be update with new values according to parameters from the combox.
the data of the sub form is from query with criteria
Code:
[Forms]![Examination]![Client_ID]
and the combobox (Client_ID) "After Update" event set to macro- requery (the sub form)
so every time that item selected in the parent form combobox the sub form items /data will change.
I have Form A that is bound to tbl_Member (MemberId, LastName, FirstName, and some other fields).
On Form A is a combobox [cbo_Selector]. The combobox shows LastName and FirstName from tbl_Member, but when a name is selected, it returns the member's ID to Form A and causes that member's record to show in Form A (along with other data pertinent to the member). This works fine until I type a name into the combobox that does not exist in the underlying table.
I use the NotInList event of the combobox to pop up another form (Form B) in the DataEntry mode. Form B is bound to the same table as Form A. I enter the LastName, FirstName, and exit Form B. What I am trying to do is to have Form B pass back the new MemberId to Form A and specifically to add that record's data to the combobox on Form A.
I have tried several things to accomplish this. When Form B updates, the table has the new member added, but when I try to requery Form A or the combobox, I get errors. how do I communicate to the combobox in Form A the information from the newly added record?
I need some help please on passing parameters such as a recordsource to a report but not using OpenArgs I heard that this can be done using a hidden form.
I have a calling form (form1) which opens a preview snapshot form (form2) which in turn brings up a rptCurrentRecord (form3) I can't get the openargs RecordSource SQL from form1 to form3
For arguments sake, Form3 in this case is really the report itself.
In the form is the table tbAssembleias, but I want to put from the other table which is not present in the form:
1. a control that count how many are present (= yes)Ex: Appearances 22. a control that sum the votes of those presentEx: Votes 9I already have a query that count how many are in the meeting, but cant realize how to pass the information to the field in the form..This is the SQL view of the query with the real field names - and working: SELECT Count(tbEntidades.tbAssPresente) AS ContaPresentes, tbEntidades.tbAssPresente FROM tbEntidades GROUP BY tbEntidades.tbAssPresente HAVING (((Count(tbEntidades.tbAssPresente))=True) AND ((tbEntidades.tbAssPresente)=True));
This is my first time writing a pass through query pinging sql tables using an input parameter from a form. I have gotten as far as executing the query but I can't seem to display the result to ensure it's pulling the right records. I also want to be able to append the records to a table. Below is the code I have written so far:
Sub GETRT()
Code: Dim db As DAO.Database Dim QDF As QueryDef Dim STRSQL As String Dim RS As Recordset STRSQL = "SELECT * FROM LAB_MESR.ODM_RT_DAYS" & _ "WHERE LOCATION_ID=" & [Forms]![PARMS]![STR_NBR] Set db = CurrentDb Set QDF = db.QueryDefs("001:GET_LT") QDF.SQL = STRSQL End Sub
Table: DailyExport Field: FailureGrouping (actually is offices)
I want to export all the fields from DailyExport each of our 9 offices to Excel, whetjer or not they have date in the DailyExport table. So if not, the exported workbook would only have columns headings.
I need to loop through the nine offices and export each office report to Excel.
Dim StrQry As String Dim strfullpath As String Dim SOffice as String strSQL = "SELECT * FROM DailyExport WHERE FailureGrouping = " & SOffice strfullpath = "Y:" & SOffice &" "& Format(Date,"mm-dd-yy") & "_Failures.xlsx" DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, , FailureGrouping, strfullpath, False
I have created a search form which I would like to use to run a query (so the data is in a spreadsheet form and I can export it).
In this search form I have a multi select list box (simple) that list the states in the US. I need to be able to pass 1 or more states as a search criteria at the same time. Also I need it to pull ALL states if there is nothing selected. The search form has a bunch of fields on it that won't all be used.
I know once you select more than one thing from a list you can't reference it directly, is there a way to accomplish what I want to do?
There is a command button on my form that calls a filtered query. I'm filtering the query based on a combo box within the form using
[Forms]![frmAssignDwgs]![Combo15]
It works beautifully until I put the form as a subform in the Navigation Form I'm using. When I execute it from within the Navigation form, it errors out looking for [Forms]![frmAssignDwgs]![Combo15].
Is there another syntax I can use so this will still work from within the Navigation Form? Or another way to approach this functionality?
frmNavigation is the main navigation form frmAssignDwgToPkgs is the subform that holds Combo15
I found another thread (which I can't link to since I'm new) and tried various arrangements of the following to no avail.
I would like to copy one control, then close this form, open concrete form and pass value to control.
My code is
Private Sub Menu_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "frmZleceniaMarzenaNawigacjaPD" Forms!frmZleceniaMarzenaNawigacjaPD.Form!Imie = Me.Imie Forms!frmZleceniaMarzenaNawigacjaPD.Form!Imie.SetFocus DoCmd.Close acForm, Me.name End Sub
The problem is, still opens the previous form, not form "frmZlecenia"
e.g If I open form x then from this form I open my modal form "frmZlecenia" and then I will click "menu" button - now form "x" is open :/, but should be "frmZleceniaMarzenaNawigacjaPD"
There is some way to open concrete form from modal form?
There's a button(Button1) on the main form (Form1) and on the second form (Form2).On Form1, I've got a link(LinkToForm2) to Form2.When people click on LinkToForm2, I want access to open Form2 and hide/show Button1 depending on whether it is shown/hidden in Form1.
Is there a way to, maybe, set a value on Form1_Deactivate (depending on whether Button1 is shown/hidden),So that, on Form2_Activate, it can check that value and hide/show Button1 accordingly?
first form contains many textboxes second form is continuous and contains two textbox
I make a shortcut to the second form so i can open it with Shift+F1
Now when the form 2 open i want to double click on any row then the form 2 will close then the information well be copied to two specified textboxes in the form1
N.B form1 should still be opened when i open the form2
I have a form that the user can add Work Order numbers to a text box and pass them to a listbox to collect 1 or more values. Each of which need a separate report with the labour hours for each Work Order.
I am having issues figuring out how to get it to pass them to a query or filter the reports.
I have tried many different examples and nothing seems to work.
So I have 2 forms, an Edit Lot Form, and an Add Run Form. Each lot will contain several runs. What I want to do is be able to add a run associated with the specific lot by pressing a button "Add Run" in the lower right corner of the edit lot form (see attached images). So the information for the lot will carry over to the run form and autofill the fields pertaining to the Lot in that form.
I have a database that I am creating to enter risks and controls in for business auditing. I am stuck with a problem related to passing a value from one form to another. The general idea behind the database is this: A business enters its risks into a risk form and later enters its controls in the controls form. These are separate forms because the risk and controls may be entered at different times by different auditors. An example of what this looks like is this:
Risk Real estate owned by the company may be overvalued on the companys balance sheet.
Control Once every two years, the company obtains an independent appraisal of the propertys value.
A risk may have more than one control mapped (assigned) to it. A control may be assigned to more than one risk.Now that we know what the end result looks like, here is my problem.
Currently, I use a form to display the risk. This form has a subform on it which displays the control. I use a combo box on the subform to choose the controls ID reference number. When chosen, the control appears in the subform. This form then populates a join table which now contains the foreign key identifiers of both the risk and the control or controls. The problem is that the controls are wordy and stored in memo fields, so the user has to choose the controls identifier in the combo box, which is usually not know to the user. So, I have a button on the form the user can select and a report of all controls pops up so the user can scroll through and find the desired control and get its reference ID. They then close the pop up report and choose the reference ID in the combo box.
What I would like to do is to have the pop-up report appear as a form and each control had a checkbox next to it. Then the user could just check the box for the control they wanted. No more selecting reference IDs from the combo box.
I should know how to do this but my brain has gone blank.
I have a form "frmMainClient" which has a field "account_no".
On the main form "frmMainClient" I have a command button which opens a pop up form ""frmJobNew" where I can enter a new job record. The "frmJobNew" form has a field "account_no".
I am trying to auto fill the "account_no" field with the data from the "frmMainClient" - "account_no" field and store the passed data when the record is saved.
I can pass the data using "=forms![frmMainClient]![account_no] in the "account_no" field on the "frmJobNew" but when I save the record the data is not saved.
I am struggling with what seems like should be a straightforward task. Unexpectedly however it has become an infuriatingly difficult one (no doubt due to my complete novice status).
I have a very basic d/base (3 tables) that I have been searching using basic SQL queries. I want to create a simple 'search' form that produces the results of my various queries without the need to work in SQL. Enter one or more search criteria, hit ENTER, results presented in datasheet perhaps?
Thought this would have been easy but I've had no luck. Can you please explain how I can pass a parameter from a form to a query?
I am trying to enter dates in a form that calls a report that invokes a query that uses the dates. It has been a less then satisfying experience. I am getting a Run-Time error 3122. Is it possible and I need to work on syntax or do I need to think of another way? BTW how do I lookup the Run-Time errors? Thanks for helping an old guy learn new tricks. Jim
I have a query set up. I need to pass a set of current records ( as I select them in a drop-down menu) in a form to the query as parameters. How would I do it with or without VB? Thanks !
EDIT: Forgot to mention that all combo boxes are bound so they are not customized dialog-boxes which are unbound
I have a subform with two combo boxes. These boxes select product catagory and products. The main form sets the supplier from which to select products.
If the user can not find the product they require they can double click thje product combo, which opens the product input form
I need the Products Form to be automatically populated by the following info: Products catagory - from combo on sub form Supplier name/id form parent form.
How do I make this work and/or pass these values as parameters to the products form.
I'm still floundering around with Access and I am stuggling!! Thx. Kev
Hi there. What I'm attempting to do is pass multiple values from a multiple selection list box as criteria for an Append Query. Is there any way to do this? The DB keeps track of Real Estate boards and the forms that they use, I would like to be able to select all the boards in a given state/province, but have the ability to deselect some within that province if I don't need them in the query (this is the criteria i'm trying to pass). I don't need to use a list box, any control that would allow me to pass multiple values would be great. Anyone able to help? Thanks very much.
Is it possible to pass a variable to a form when a checkbox is clicked? I have 8 tabs, each of which has a checkbox. When a checkbox is clicked, I would like it to display 1 form but that form should display different data each time by either running a SQL query with specific variables passed to it or by running a different SQL query.
I have two subforms in a tab formation sitting on a main form. They can both open up a single popup form (via a button) and that popup form is opened via openargs with the autoID field.
What I need to do is pass back a value on the popup forms [On Unload] event to the subform which opened it.
As the popup form is Modal, the subform which opened it can't be changed.
Am I right in thinking I can pass back the value to the form which had previous focus?
Previously, to pass a value from a popup form to a single form I've been using
Code:
If CurrentProject.AllForms("MyForm").IsLoaded Then do this else do this end if
But in this instance, how do I code the On Unload event in which to tell Access which form opened up the popup form, and pass a value back to it?
I'm guessing Screen.PreviousControl.SetFocus has something to do with it?
