One thing I noted when I provide the control source then selection gets stop from combo box...I am giving the valid control source is customerID but its not working.Could it be the reason ? Why selection gets stop from combo box when provide the control source ? If remove the control source then 1st text box is getting filled on basis of combo selection and 2nd text box value is not getting filled as describe above.

Populating A Text Field From A Combo Box Selection.

Apr 28, 2005

I have a combo where the list is populated with a bit of VB code to create a two field list. When the user selects the item they want from the list it displays the item in the combo box and should populate a text box in the same row with the value from the second column.

This combo is part of an orders subform and the user is selecting a product from the list which displays the product_name and the product_id.

The problem is that the product_id is not filled in and access returns the following error:
Run-time error ‘3101’:
The Microsoft Jet database cannot find a record in the table ‘product_table’ with key matching field(s) product_id.

This is the VB code that populates the list :
[code]
Private Sub comboCatagory_ID_AfterUpdate()
Dim sProd_description As String
sProd_description = "SELECT products_table.product_id, products_table.prod_description " & _
"FROM products_table " & _
"WHERE products_table.prod_catagoryID = " & "'" & Me.comboCatagory_ID.Column(0)
Me.comboProd_description.RowSource = sProd_description
Me.comboProd_description.Requery
End Sub
[end code]

What am I doing wrong?

Thx
Kev.

Autofill Text Field Using Combo Box Selection To Generate Autonumber

Dec 10, 2013

Autofill text field using combo box selectionHello,

I'm trying to autofill a field on a form using MS-Access 2010 Web version sharepoint using macros without coding.

The form has an existing Combo Box field called Segment, using the row sources "REW", "WTT", "DBM".

A user begins filling out the form and eventually selects the Combo Box for Segment and selects any one of the segment no Multiple selection

There is another text field, which is actually alpha-numeric, called Job_No. I want this to autofill based on their Segment selection, using this format:

REW-YYMMDD-TTTT, or REW-131210-20001 for example, for today with the time displayed as military time and last Job No.(20001) for REW and Also for WTT (30001) as starting number.

General :: Auto Populate A Table Field From Combo Selection

Jan 17, 2013

I have a Table (tblFPAData) that is being populated with entries from a form I created. There are several fields but if I can get an answer for one relationship then I can repeat it for the others.

In tblFPAData there are the fields MaterialNo and Description.

I am creating another table called tblSchedule and using a form to enter the information. I need the user to select the MaterialNo from a combo (cmbMaterialNo) and the then table auto populates the Description from tblFPAData.

Default Value In Text Or Combo Box

Sep 26, 2005

I am trying to set the result of a query as the default value for a text or combo box. I have tried setting the query as the default value in the box's property. I have also tried doing it in VB. The code looks like this

Dim SQL AS String

SQL = "SELECT Address
FROM Table1
WHERE Name = Forms!Main_frm!name_lbx.Value;"

Forms!Address_frm!address_cbx.DefaultValue = SQL

I have also tried

Dim SQL AS String

SQL = DoCmd.OpenQuery([update address_qry])

Forms!Address_frm!address_cbx.Value = SQL

Where update address_qry is the same as the above.

I keep both forms. I know how to do it by setting the queries as values in a list box, then transfering the values to the text or combo boxes. But I was hoping there was an easier way.

Thanks
Alex

General :: Using A Combo Box To Set Default Value For Subsequent Records?

Nov 29, 2012

I am trying to create a user friendly form to enter a list of competitors entering an event.

I would like the user to pick from a list of events and that event to be used for subsequent records until the user changes it.

I have used a combo box to pick from a list of events but that needs to re-selected for every new record. I then added a second unbound combo box to give the main combo box its default value. It works but is not very user friendly.

Forms :: Auto Populate A Text Box Based On Selection Of A Combo Box

May 24, 2013

I have two tables: tblWeightTickets and tblWasteType.

I want to create a form: frmWeightTickets, where a user can enter information and the data is stored in tblWeightTickets.

There are two fields in particular that I am working on ... "WasteType" and "Rate".

On the form, I want "WasteType" to be a combobox "cboWasteType" and when I select a type of waste I want the "Rate" textbox on the same form to auto populate with the rate amount for that particular type of waste (i.e. recycling, garbage, etc).

The Rate amount is located in the table: tblWasteType under the field name "Rate". How can I do this and at the same time store the information in the tblWeightTickets? I already have the combo box loaded with the types of waste - I just need it to populate the rate text box and store it in the Weight Tickets table.

General :: Using Combobox Selection In IF Statement To Make Another Text Box Visible

Aug 28, 2012

I have a combobox [CBreason] that reads from a table to show me why someone is gaining access to the building.

One of the options is "Incident".

When incident is selected I want a textbox [TBIncidentNo] and a button[BIncidentDup] control I made to appear.

I thought that the code:

If Me.CBReason.Value = "Incident" Then
Me.CBIncidentNo.Visible = True
Me.BIncidentDup.Visible = True
Else
Me.CBIncidentNo.Visible = False
Me.BIncidentDup.Visible = False
End If

Placed in the after update action of the CBReason box would sufice but it doesnt work

I'm guessing the value is not recognised fro some reason but i cant work out why. There is no error message or issus, it makes the box dissapear when there is no entry but no change for selecting incident.

I'm having trouble with a Form and getting a text box entry box (Date entry) default to the date entered on the last record, which is linked to a table.

The only way I can get it to work is to type the date into the Text Box's Default property, for example, #11/13/13".

How to get the correct syntax or code into the Default property of the Text Box to make this work? I only want the entry to change versus the previous record/entry if the User changes / enters a new date.

Help With Combo Box Selection Being Determined By Entry In Another Field

Feb 7, 2008

first of all, i'm new to access. the only experience i have with it is reading the "microsoft office inside out", access section, and doing some research on the web.

i work for a school district and my boss has asked me to make a database with all our assets. i used to have everything in excel, but he prefers access, so here i am. what i'm wanting help with is making a combo box that lists manufacturers like hp, dell, etc., and then having the next field show a list of models depending on what was selected in the manufacturers field. so if i select dell, i want only dell models to show up in the combo list for models.

i can make the combo lists, but i don't know how to make it so that the entry in one field affects the list in another field. i've tried putting in lookup values, i've tried doing it with expressions in queries, and a few other things. i've tried searching google, and the forums and i've found things that are kind of similar to what i want, but doesn't do exactly what i want. so here i am...is there a simple way to do this? this isn't required of me, but now it's driving me crazy because that's the way i'd like to have it but i can't figure it out.

i'd appriciate any help with this.
thanks.

Field Values Based On User Selection In Combo

Dec 9, 2005

Hello,

I'm stuck! I want to create a form which has a combo box where you select
someone's name, and their address appears in another text box on the same form. The names and addresses are in a table called "cardholders".

I'm doing separate combos for first name, surname cos I think that's the only
way you can do it.

The fields in the table are credit_add, credit_name & credit_surname. The combos are called "cardholder name" "cardholder surname" etc. This is the code in the text box where I want the address to appear:-

=DLookUp("[credit_add]","cardholders","[credit_name] = '" & [cardholdername] & "' And [credit_surname] = " & [cardholdersurname])

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Forms :: Multiple Field Population On Combo Box Selection

Nov 4, 2013

I'm building a test registration form, and I want to populate 2 additional fields based on the TestID ComboBox selection. This same TestID table has a Requirement and Expected result field, that I want to display for the end user, to make sense of the test in question. Multiple fields in the ComboBox does not work since you cannot select a single testID; you can click on the relevant testID, but the table remains in view, rather than displaying only the relevant testID.

Forms :: Populating Only Key Field Value Form Combo Box Selection?

Aug 10, 2015

In the Contacts Table there are two fields, the unique Contact ID key field numeric and the Contact Name. Like this:

Contact_ID; Name
1; Tom
2; Dick
3; Harry

In a form named "Selection" there is a Combo box that references the Contact table, and lists just the three names in the drop down (showing the Contact_ID is optional - I'm fine either way):

Tom
Dick
Harry

When the selection is made it will populate the field Contact_Ref the table called SelectedName.

Question: When the user selects the name I'd like the data populated in the SelectedName table to be the Contact_ID Value, and not the Name, so if Harry is selected the Value "3" would be saved.
