I have a subform that is in Datasheet view. If I open this subform on it's own, the Date Picker works for the Date field. However, if I open the main form with the subform on it, the date picker doesn't work? Nothing happens when I select a date on the calender.
I am using MS Access 2010.
I have a subform in datasheet view and a button on the main form which is used to clear all filters in the subform.
The button's OnClick event calls a procedure on the subform. The procedure in the subform has the following code :
Code:
Me.filter = ""
Me.filterOn = false
Docmd.Save acform, subformName
Debug.Print "Filter : " & Me.filter
Me.requery
I also have debug print outs which shows the current filter on the forms OnLoad and OnClose events.
Everything works fine but somehow when I reopen the main form (with subform) the filter gets reset to the previous one.
I can change filters and that saves ok but if I clear filter it always returns to the previous ones when I reopen the form containing the subform...
For reference the filter string in subform looks like "(qrySubformQuerySource.Fieldname)="xx""
See title :)
I have seen that in some sample db's rightclicking the mouse showed the menu with an option to check or uncheck the dataview option, unchecked the formview was applied, but when i 'just' import the subform, i cannot find somewhere the possibility to change from dataview to formview.
Maybe someone can help me with this, probably very simple(?), question?
I have been unable to get the Totals row in Access 2013 to calculate any values in Datasheet view. I can bring up the Totals Row to select a function
But when I click Sum (or Count or Minimum, etc), nothing happens:
It is a 100% local table, not SQL, not linked. The problem has been noted on two separate machines using Windows 7 x64 and Microsoft Access 2013.
Hi. I am trying to create subform in datasheet view with one column (total 3)as drop down list. Is this doable? Thanks.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a subform that is in databsheet view. When the user logs in to the db it sets the global variable with the group level they have.
I would like a column to be hidden for a certain group of users and have tried the following.
On the subform opening event i have
if vlevel = "engineer" then
me.Hours.columnhidden = True
Else
me.Hours.columnhidden = False
End If
And i have done the same on the Main Form open event identifying the subform by Form!Subform![Hours].columnhidden = True
But neither worked.
Can any suggest something.
Can anyone tell me how to manipulate a single cell in a datasheet view, or if it is even possible?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a small issue with the before update event, it is triggered for every record of my subform in datasheet view rather than just once when the user leaves the subform.
I have a module which is called from my form and all the subforms. It tells the user that changes have been made to the record and gives them the option to undo. This is to prevent accidental editing when viewing records. This works fine, but sometimes the user must enter a number of records in a subform and so they must answer the message box every time.
Is there any relatively straightforward way to accomplish the warning and undo when the user leaves the subform rather than the individual record in it?
A quick attempt at lost focus and before exit demonstrated that these were not the way to go.
For reference, here is the before update code and the module
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub Form_Before Update(Cancel As Integer)
On Error GoTo Err_Handler
Call Confirm_Change
Exit_Here:
Exit Sub
Err_Handler:
MsgBox Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description

I have recently added a subform to a form and wish to display the subform in Datasheet view. Whilst I can get the proper data and headings to display, I cannot figure out how to get the column widths to persist. I can adjust the column widths while in (main) form view right on the subfirm columns themselves but after I save and reload the main & subform form, the widths revert to some sort of default value.
I have also tried adjusting the columns in the subform's associated data table itself as well as adjusting the text box widths when the subform is displayed in Form view but it does not affect the column widths when the subform displays Datasheet view.
What is more annoying is that I have another subform in which I was able to make the Datasheet view column widths persist but I don't seem to be able to properly recall how I did it.
Hi,
I have a query (SelectedData_Query) , on which a form (SelectedDataQuery_SubForm) in datasheetview is based, which is placed on a form (NAWInvoerForm) where customer adress data is put in. When someone clicks new case button on the NAWInvoer_Form, another form (CaseDateTimeInfo_Form) is opened, data is entered, but when the "CaseDateTimeInfo_Form" form is closed, the data in the subform in datasheetview on the NAWInvoerForm is not yet refreshed. So I tried the following:
Private Sub Form_Close()
'------------------------------------------------------------
' RefreshNAWInvoerForm
'
'------------------------------------------------------------
On Error GoTo RefreshNAWInvoerForm_Err
DoCmd.OpenForm "KlantNAW_InvoerForm", acNormal, "", "", , acNormal
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdRefresh
RefreshNAWInvoerForm_Exit:
Exit Sub
RefreshNAWInvoerForm_Err:
MsgBox Error$
Resume RefreshNAWInvoerForm_Exit
End Sub
Which works just fine. After the form is closed, the name, adress and cases overview form is reopened and refreshed, thus the case that has just been created is shown nicely in the subform which is based on a query.
But it is starting to become bothersome, sometimes when I close the form in which I create a new case, I don't want to have the other form (NAWInvoerForm) reopening again.
So how can i make it so that when I close the form only the data in the "NAWInvoer_Form" is refreshed, without having to reopen the form again. I mean, in the background, the form is still open anyway. It just shouldn't keep popping up everytime.
It can't be hard, but I can't see it. I'm new at this. I have found some similar topics on this forum, but none which helps me out enough.
It should be something like:
On "thisandthatevent" do a "thisandthatcommand" on "thisandthatsubform" in "thisandthatform"
If I know how the syntax of that is done, it would help me out with some other problems I see coming in the near future. I've looked at, and tried some things based on this link: http://www.mvps.org/access/forms/frm0031.htm
But without success.
Can anyone help?
Well, I couldn't find this using the search, so here it goes:I have a form in which I enter data to create a new client. Within that form I have a subform in datasheetview which is based on a query which holds/retrieves certain (important) fields from a table that holds case info. So in that one view the client data is displayed on the form and all cases and the most important data from those cases is displayed nicely in one screen.Now, when a client calls I navigate to that client and see all previous and all current cases that are open and/or closed for this customer. So the customer says case this and that number is the case I need to discuss with you. Now, what I would like is to be able to click or double click anywhere on the line that, for instance, says case nr 55, so that the form(s) belonging to case nr 55 pop up and all info concerning that case is displayed and can be edited as needed. My problem is: I'm still a newbie and if it was a simple thing like using the on_click event to open the form that's needed, I would not have to post this question. But that can't be done (as far as I know) since the subform is based on a query which is displayed in dataview.Am I overlooking a very simple solution to this problem or is it really going to be as difficult as I think it's going to be?For clarification of the idea I have included a screenshot of the form in question. I assume there are tons of databases out there which use such a layout or idea as this one. Please, never mind the buttons etc. It is still a work in progress. ;)
View 12 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to have a multiselect listbox on a subform with a datasheet view or do I need a combobox in this situation?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am operating in MS Access 2007 and unfortunately have to stick with the "out of the box" controls. I have data entries of notes in my database for "most workdays" - but not holidays or weekends. I want to allow the user to be able to edit notes for "most workdays" - but not let them pick a day to edit that doesn't have notes - by selecting them from a calendar date picker. Essentially, I want to gray-out/lock the non-workdays from editing.Is there a smart enough Active X or other control as a Date Picker that uses the results of a query to show valid/invalid dates?
View 2 Replies View RelatedOn my main form, I have a subform to input multiple dates, using date picker.
I also have a text box on the main form to input single dates, again using Date Picker.
On entering both the single date text box and the subform, I don't want the (default) date to be visible. I only want the date to be visible once I have selected a date from the Date Picker.
I have figured out how to do this with the single date text box. I have simply defaulted the forecolor to be white so that you can't see the font against the white backcolor. Then on the Change Event, I set the forecolor to be black. Works like a charm.
However... This same approach will not work with the subform. I've tried playing around with a bunch of different events, but so far nothing allows me to re-create what I am able to do with the single date text box on the main form.
Hello, all.
I need to use a datasheet view for a subform, but I can't seem to find how to keep users from editing the column widths within the view. Help?
THANKS!

I m having a subform in datasheet view. whn i use a join query as the record source for the sub form, i am not able to add or update any record in the datasheet. Is there anyway to use a linked query as record source of the datasheet with editable property.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there anyway that we can do cascading combobox in the same datasheet view of subform? Basically I'd like to filter "Account Name" based on "Plan#" selected in the same record of subform.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a subform in which I display a table in Datasheet View. The problem is, I cannot figure out how to place the columns in the order (i.e. from left to right) I want.
For some reason, right-clicking on a column header in Form View and selecting Freeze Fields will shift that column to the left but I can find no consistent pattern to it and no other way of shifting a column. Reordering the columns in the table itself seems to have no effect on the order they appear on the subform and moving the controls around in the subform in Design View also seems to have no effect.
I have a subform whose design I am trying to change. When I make changes such as moving fields or adding fields the changes appear in form view (and layout view), but not in datasheet view. However, if I delete fields, the changes appear in both form and datasheet view.
This situation results in behavior where I can have the subform open in design view and toggle back and forth between design and datasheet view, and they are different. However, toggling between design and form view shows the changes as having taken effect.
I can make the DATE picker work, but I need to add the TIME to the same picker. At least that would be preferred.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a form in datasheet view, with a date column. When I filter for last week it gives me all the entries for that week, but when I try and filter on a single day it only gives me 1 entry even though I know there are several entries for that day. Why would it be doing this? It also is the same when I go directly to the table and try to filter. I know the underlying data that was imported is a full date and time stamp, which I'm displaying as just the date portion, but surely it should show me all that are on a particular date, not just 1?
Just checked to see whether it would give me "yesterday", and while it seem to be able to when I checked 2 days ago, now it's not even giving me those.
I have a Project form, which holds StockArtProduction_Subform in datasheet view. I need for them to be able to click on the ID in the StockArtProduction_Subform datasheet and it open a single view form (StockArtProduction) with the correlating ID.
Ideally, it would also work for new entries in the StockArtProduction_Subform, but the StockArtProduction form would have to "auto populate" (did I use it right?) with the ID of the currently open Project form.
Hi
I use the Date and Time Picker. i know that i can get many other calendars, however, my theory is that i would rather use something that is directly supported by microsoft. but as i found out now that may not be the case.
on of my users updated his Office 2003 after he was having problems using my database (created on 2002 sp3). i know that the same database works on 2003 sp1. however, now microsoft is serving 2003 sp2. so after the update he he can't use the database.
so my questions:
1. how do i generally prevent users from getting update errors. i would like to atleast alert them with a meaningful message that their version of Office needs to be updated.
2. is this true that the Date and Time Picker doesn't work anymore? and if so, why isn't backwards compatible? and how do i prevent this from happening with other controls or scripts?
thanks,
sam
When I had a subform (continous form) I had a code which check, that record was used in other form, if yes, then code not allowed to delete this record, if not, record was deleted. But now I have a datasheet form, and the question is, What should I do, to have the same results what I had in continous form.
Now it doesn't matter that I past this code in "Before Del Confirm", "On delete", "After Del Confirm", this code doesn't work in this view of form. Always if I click (right button) on record, then i choose "delete record" MS Access delete my record without checking that was used in other form or not.
Code:
If Not IsNull(DLookup("Id_Gora_Zlecenia.Value", "TblDolZlecenia", "Id_Gora_Zlecenia.Value=" & ID_gora_zlecenia)) Then
MsgBox "You can't delete this record because it is used in another form"
Exit Sub
End If
DeleteRecord Me
End Sub
DeleteRecord:
Code:
Public Function DeleteRecord(ByRef f As Form) As Boolean
DeleteRecord = False
On Error Resume Next
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
If Not f.NewRecord Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord
[Code] .....
I have a database i have been working on (access 2007). In the past I have been using a list box to select records. Now I would like to use the datasheet view or split form view. Everything seemed fine until I moved to linked tables.
My problem is, with the same query, the listbox is lightning fast at changing the recordsource.
When I change the recordsource on a datasheet view or split form, it takes... ages and shows "Calculating.." On larger recordsets it freezes access.
Hi everyone!!
This is my first thread in this forum..Hope to get best from this site ..well i m facing a problem..i have a main form and a subform (which is in datasheet view) . Now i have a button called "close_form" in main form on whose click event i have writen this code :
Private Sub close_form_Click()
On Error Resume Next
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, acUndo, , acMenuVer70
Me.Controls.Item("fees sub").SetFocus
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, acUndo, , acMenuVer70
DoCmd.Close
End Sub
1. If i run this form directly from Access and there are no changes i do in the form and click this button then it gets hang after showing error "run time error 2046 ; the command or action undo is not available now " "press End or Debug or help"
2. As i have created a Custom menu, if i run this form from that menu then it does not show any error. But it runs fine for the first time but nothing happens on clicking this button the second time i open the same form ( in same session).
What to do ?? Please help ..
