When moving from a subform back to the mainform and requerying one of the mainform controls, the record selector of the subform moves back to its first record. ...
GoToRecord (,,Next) '(in the subform-this is correct)
SelectObject
Object Type Form
Object Name pv '(go back to the main form)
In Database Window No
GoToControl (SubTot)
Requery (SubTot)If I remove the Requery, the record selector remains where it is supposed to be. The SubTot data source does include the aggregate dsum value of the subform's underlying table. What is strange is that this has been running properly for many years until it was upgraded from .mdb to .accdb format. Is there an easy way to make the record selector stay put?
When I add a record in the subform and then move to the next record whilst still in the subform, the main form jumps back to its first record? I then have to move back to the right record in the main form to update the next record in the subform.
I want to move to the next record in the subform without affecting the main form.
I have a subform with records of call details (date, time, subject) - the date and time are autogenerated and subject is a text field. After entering text in the subject field and then clicking on the close button in the main form, or clicking anywhere else in the main form, the record is saved to the table. However, if I enter text in the subject field and then move up to view previous records (within the subform) and then click the close button in the main form the record is not saved in the table. How can I either save the record before allowing the user to move to another record within the subform or before exiting the subform set the focus to the new record so that it will be saved on exit?
In the zip-file attached below is my "problem" database. (to see the problem open frmLedenArtikels) On top of the form just select a name from the combo box, the subform then lists the items that person has bought on a certain date. So very easy form.
The problem is the following. When I try to add items to the subform, the record selector in the subform always automatically jumps back to the first record in the subform. this is very annoying and I have totally no clue why this is happening.
My problem is related to an Access database, where an auto complete Combo box is used to select a client record by entering the ID number or the clients name. EG: 14034 or Bloggs,Fred. This problem has me puzzled (not difficult to do).I have seen this in a functioning DB. I can see that maybe the ID (a long integer) would have to be stored or converted to a string on the fly.
I am currently using Access 2007 but 2010 and 2013 are available (prefer 2007 as MS keep moving things around ).I am currently selecting a client record using either an ID select Combo or a ClientName Combo and works very well. But, after seeing it done in one Combo box, it just seems so elegant.
I am using Access 2013. I have a form with 2 subforms, each time the form is opened, the first record on both subforms are selected. Is there a way to turn off the record selector so no records are selected when the form opens?
Combo2 - Record selector that works, either shows a list of facilities or list of physicians. Macro SearchForRecord - Where Condition ="[fac_id] = " & Str(Nz([Screen].[ActiveControl].[Column](0),0))
Would like it to be
="[fac_id] = " & Str(Nz([Screen].[ActiveControl].[Column](0),0)) AND [referral_type] = Me!Combo2
I have a Form named Clients with a multi-page tab named TabCtl0.
The record source tables - primary key is [ID] , TabCtl0 has 7 tabs, the 1st named General.
The 1st 6 tabs show information from the same record.
The 7th tab contains a subform named Focus displaying continuous forms with 3 fields in each record including [ID].
What I am trying (for hours and hours without success) to do is to create a Macro that fires when I double click on a control within subform Focus that takes me to the page named General and selects the record where ID = the ID within the selected record of subform focus.
I have two subforms on a main form. When I move out of the last control of the first subform, I use the following code to move to the first control of the second subform:
Forms!frmFMVisit!frmSubFamilyEthnicDetails.SetFocu s
This is giving me problems in that it appears that moving out of the control in this way seems to be creating a record in the table on which the first subform is based.I get the following message: 'Cannot the value 'NULL' into column 'DoB'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.'Is there a way to navigate between subforms without this happening?
I have a form on my database called frmFloorRun in which a user inputs a line number on the main form, and then in the subform they enter what will be running on that line for that given day.
Everything seems to work beautifully except that when a user clicks on a line other than line 1 and clicks the refresh button, the first item scheduled to run on line 1 will move to whatever line the user is currently on.
To replicate this issue: simply open the database (i have slimmed it down so that only the floor run portion is included).
Open the form [frmFloorRun] observe the first line item on line 1 (that should be what the form opens to by default).
Now click on any other line by selecting it from the dropdown (yes I realize it is a combo box, but even when I remove that combo box and enter a line number manually, the issue persists).
After selecting another line, click refresh and that first line item from line 1 will move to whatever line you have selected. This is a huge issue for our company.
Also, I have included the report that is based on this form. It simply proves that the line item does not just move on the form - it moves in the report too.
Does anyone know how to remove the "Record ID" from the record selector? I want to be able to traverse from one record to the next, however I do not want the field representing what record it is on showing up ( if that makes any sense).
Hi All, I have a form that when loads, runs some VBA on the "On Current" event. Some of that code, fills in text boxes, with concatenated (?) strings. So every time I use the record selector and get to the end of all the records, the "On Current" fires adds the concatenated string (even if it's empty), and that then becomes a new record! Is there some way i can prevent this, but still keep the "On Current" event, some type of logic I could run before the concatenations etc.
How do I remove a record selector from a subform? I went to the actual form for the subform and went into design view. I changed the record selector to NO and it is still there.
I have a table with fields ID, NAME, ITEM, QUANTITY and DATE_IN. I have a query "qry_Logged_In" based on the table. I then have a form based on the query.
I created a combo box as a "go to record" selector and used the following Row Source:
SELECT DISTINCTROW qry_Logged_In.ID, qry_Logged_In.NAME, qry_Logged_In.ITEM, qry_Logged_In.QUANTITY, qry_Logged_In.DATE_IN FROM qry_Logged_In ORDER BY [ID];
On the After Update proceudre I have the following code:
Sub Combo135_AfterUpdate() ' Find the record that matches the control. Me.RecordsetClone.FindFirst "[ID] = " & Me![Combo135] Me.Bookmark = Me.RecordsetClone.Bookmark End Sub
It works fine, but one thing I would like is that as I toggle through records using the record selector (forward/backward) buttons, I would like for the record number in my combo box to also change keeping in sync with the record number. Unfortunately, it currently stays to the number I last selected in the combo box.
Any suggestions on how to make the record number showing in my combo box to change with the record number?
I have a tab control with a Counsellor Training tab on it inmy form frmCounsellors. The issue I am having is that when I select a training type from the drop down in the sub form on the tab control on the counsellor training tab and then go to a new record of the main form, not on the sub form, the training type I selected on the form stays the same. If I change it on the second record, it stays at whatever I changed it to, even if I return to the first record it stays at what I changed it to as well.
How do I get it to stay with the counsellor and have it zero out for a new counsellor and it to allow me to enter something different for the new counsellor then save it for that counsellor?I just realised, I am having the same issue with the location combo box but I am sure I could apply a fix to both boxes if I knew one.
I would like to be able to switch between these two forms and the form automatically set focus to the record that I was on the form prior. Meaning if I am on record 3 on Form A and navigate to Form B, I would like to automatically set focus to record 3. Is this possible?
A possible issue after this gets sorted out is what happens if with the same scenario above record 3 does not exits? is it possible in that instance to simply requery the form?
Hi, In Access 2007, I don't seem to be able to scan through a few records by holding down the advance record arrow in tables liked I used to?! Am I missing something here, it worked in the same way in all other versions, the same as if you use the mouse wheel, it should run through each record in turn.
Is there a way to change this? I've been through all the settings I can think of...
Hi Can anyone confirm (or otherwise) that you can't set the record selector property to 'no' in a datasheet view form? (well, you can set it to 'no' but it seems to have no effect)
I have created a Form based from a Table. On one of the fields, I need to be required inside the Form before moving to the next record of that form. I can not make the required field in the table, because I have to append information day to day.
Also, the required field is a combo box option that is limit to the list.
What kind of Code I can do inside the form of the specific field to make it required before clicking onto the next record. It does not matter if the processor closes out of the form before updating, only if moving to the next record.
I have two unbound unlinked subforms residing on a 3rd unbound main form. When I enter the current record on Subform1 I would like the matching record(s) on Subform2 to be highlighted or otherwise formatted. I can get this to work for only the first record on subform2 due to the way I have my code setup on Subform1:
Code: Private Sub Accounting_Unit_Enter() 'find where AUs match. only works for first Subform2 record If Me.[Accounting Unit] = Forms!MainForm.[Subform2]!AccountingUnit Then msgbox "Match" End If End Sub
My thought was that I needed to reference the Recordset of Subform2 and search for all AccountingUnits that match the current AccountingUnit of Subform1,
I have two subforms on a main form. Both use similar queries and nearly the same set of records and PK. The first subform is for data entry and the 2nd subform is a continuous form that lists the entries in order that are made from the 1st Subform. (for entering in vacation days and appointments)
The continuous form cannot be edited, it is to be a list for viewing the information only.
I have an edit button next to each record on the continuous form. When the button is clicked, I want it to take the 1st subform to that specific record as well (same PK), so the information can be edited there.
I cannot figure out how to get the 1st subform to go to the record on the continuous form when the button next to that record is clicked on the continuous form.
I tried the DoCmdSearch for record and just keep getting object is not open errors.
