Data has been imported (from Word, Excel &/or PDF) into a Memo field in an Access 2007 database. Sometimes the data appears fine. Other times there appears to be excessive and unnecessary Linebreaks / paragraph returns throughout the data in the Memo field. Is there a way to search for and replace these linebreaks?
View RepliesI am trying to make pass through query that triggers a database restore on a SQL server based on a few parameters entered in a form.
As soon as i run the command button the output just put all lines as one line without line breaks.
Here is my code:
Private Sub cmdRestore_Click()
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
Dim sSQL As String
Dim sSQL_Local As String
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
[Code] ......
Is there a way in a query to search for an asterisk (*) in a field and if one is found, to then remove it?
I'm aware the asterisk is a wildcard symbol in Access, which is why I'm asking what I'm asking. This dang file I received has data in a field and the last character can be an asterisk at times.
Thanks so much in advance!! Looking forward toyour replies!!!!
I have a simple access search form , that's based on a query that fill parameters from the form textboxes, when the access form loads its keeps prompting for parameters value which looks ugly .. I want to open the form, displaying all the records in the table and filter when i click search ..
I have a data entry entry form, that i want to generate success message after successful insert in database. I have done it in the button event if no error happens, still if i left all fields blank and clicked save, it displays the message ..
I need to change that to display please fill the textboxes then click save , and display success message when the row is actually inserted ..
Check the following attachment for sample.
I currently have a database with a few search forms. I recently attempted to add a box on one of my search forms to search 3 cells of a record for a key word. What happens is when I go to search, say for P0442, it does not bring up all of the records that contain that keyword in the 3 cells I have outlined. If I step down the code in the OR boxes of the query, it seems to work better but then for some reason my other search criteria , (Tracking number etc) does not work. I will upload the database for reference. I am currently working on the Search(View Only) and that is where you will find the query to work on.

View 5 Replies View RelatedHi there,
I've been puzzling over this one for a few days. I've done a few searches on here to borrow some code - but the fact is I don't understand how to implement the suggestions. I'm hoping somone can help.
Basically, I have a form for editing the database, however, there are a number of reasons for opening this form - so at the moment I have several copies of the same form all with very minor changes. In order to streamline the way I've done this, I'd rather have controls always call up the same Form - but state in their code whether or not certain controls on the editing form are visible or not...
:mad: :eek: :mad: :eek: :confused:
It's all gone rather Pete Tong here. And I must admit I'm button bashing the code a bit now. Basically, when a button is pressed, I want it to load the form "frmEditJob". Depending on what I want visible, the Tags "N, M and V" will activate and deactivate certain controls on "frmEditJob".
With me? :confused:
Any help is appreciated!
Cheers.

On a continuous form, I would like the user will add a new record via button click instead of popping open a blank record at all times. With AllowAdditions set to False on Form load, and turning it back on button click I can get a new record added. I am having trouble determining where to turn it back off. After Insert - doesn't seem to delete the blank row until I move to the blank row, so this doesn't accomplish what I am looking for.
AfterUpdate (for each field on continuous form) - this did what I wanted, but I was only able to update one field on the form for the new record. The combo boxes then were viewable, but I could not make a selection.
I have a database where I have a number from a client. We copy/paste it from a pdf file. The number has dots in it (1.00.00.000). I would like to create a solution that when I paste the number in the field and go to the next field, it will take out the dots from the number.

I'm using Access 2010 and have a form that is basically the last step in generating a report (which will be a printable invoice).
I am facing major problems when it comes to removing line items that the user may have accidentally clicked. I have a checkbox field embedded in the table (tblLineItems) which is set up as binary. I have created a form from tblLineItems, and have in turn embedded that as a subform on the invoice generating form.
When I select line items, I have them populating a two column listbox that shows the user what they have selected before actually opening the report. The code I am using is on the checkbox click event in the subform:
Code:
Private Sub InvoiceY_N Click()
Dim InvLineTotal As Currency
If InvoiceY_N.Value = True Then

I have a form with three listbox. My issue is this, when I go from listbox to listbox the selected item in the previous listbox is still selected.
I would like it so when I go to the new listbox, then the previous listbox selection will no longer be highlighted.
I use the follow code, which works but the user has to double click on the listbox with the focus to make a selection.
Code:
Me.listbox.listindex = -1
I have the code in the lost focus event of the listboxes.
Is there a way to prevent the double clicking?

I have a form which I would like to enable scrollbars both horizontally and vertically (the main reason being, the application is designed for users with large / wide screens but may at some point be required on smaller screens)
Currently I have the scrollbars switched off and the form maximises but everything goes to pot if I resize the window. I'd like to add the scrollbars so if a user wants to resize the window to, say, half the screen, they can still scroll across to the 'hidden' parts of the form.
The problem with this is, if the form is maximised - or at least large enough to show the entire form - the area of the screen where the horizontal scrollbar resides is white (whereas the background colour of the form is a pale green) Which is quite unsightly.
I know I can remove the problem by removing the horizontal scrollbar and the navigation bar (which is already gone!) but then I can't scroll?
Is it possible to have a horizontal scrollbar but not have that white space at the bottom when the scrollbar is not required?
(Doesn't appear to be a problem with the vertical scrollbar?...)
I'm using a form for book drinks to a customer room.
To find the customer, I'm using an search function (Unbound field), works fine.
The same function I'm using in the subform, for booking the articles to the customer.
Now, I'm wondering, is there an easy way to clear the search field either when starting the form or after the search is done and the article booked.
The search function is based on the macro (Search for record, condition: ="[ID] = " & Str(Nz(Screen.ActiveControl,0))).
I had two fields in my table which I previously used in the form. I deleted the fields from the form itself but the fields are still listed under Field List and not even under any table...
Delete buttons doesn't work on it, and neither does backspace?
How do I remove it? Right click only gives me two options:
"Add Field to View" or "Edit Record Source" which returns an error saying this command cannot be used.
