General :: How To Get Value From Combobox And Link It To Print
Sep 6, 2012
What i need to be able to do is write vba to find the value inside the comboxbox and then either:-
1. Run a macro with the same value that is in the combobox
Or
2. Run a set of reports and print them off but are linked to the combobox value.
The combobox name is ODTyper
The combobox control source is ODType which is a field in TblType
The combobox row source is SELECT [TblType].Model FROM TblType;
The value inside the combobox are in the format of TE4700
The name of the macros are in the format of TE4700
The Main form is called FrmOrderDatabase.
Plus somehow i need to get the value of the combobox and link it to print off the correct reports.

i want to know how to link 2 combobox in the access like id i chose a department in the other combobox show me the list under that department and the other think how i can create a search button to the date and to the department i want and how to create a button to calculate from many tables.
'Check if curent record is a new adn that the states combo has not changed 'warn user and determine desired action 'Reset suburbs combo and text box if user wishes to change states
I explain briefly what is my task, When the user selects a different name from the list, I would like to link it automatically with the current Date() . I want to do it for every single name of the field so that in case I need, it would be possible to track for how many days that particular name of the list has been clicked.
I explain it better…My DB aims to monitor some procedures that have 3 status, these are:
On Working, Expired Revoked
Given the above I would like to track when every single procedure starts is “on working” and when it ends it. I want to automatically link every name of the combobox with an event that update a field of a table that monitor the beginning and to another that monitor the end (when another status is selected). After that my aim would be to calculate the diff between the two in order to have a number of the days that every single procedure is stuck into a single status. Do you think is something feasible? I hope to have explain it well… If you need I can try to explain it better
Is there a way, in access db or in its VBA, to capture the two columns of data from the combo box so that can monitor them?
I have almost completed creating a continuous form which I want users to be able to filter though the records based on to/from date, badgenum and a response string.
I then want to have a button, btnSelect, that will select the remaining records and open a report based off only the remaining records.
1.) Everything on the continuous form works except when trying to filter a combo box, cboBadge, field name "BadgeNum". BadgeNum is data type "short text". I have modified the code below from the following Allen Browne link. It keeps throwing a debug on me.Filter = strWhere at the bottom of the btnFilter sub.
2.) As far as the btnSelect and printing remaining records, I guess I'm not sure where to start.. I currently have another print button that will print individual records only which works fine.

Code: Private Sub btnFilter_Click() Dim strWhere As String 'The criteria string. Dim lngLen As Long 'Length of the criteria string to append to. Const conJetDate = "#mm/dd/yyyy#" 'The format expected for dates in a JET query string.
I have a suppliers table and a products table. Two forms, Stock form with combobox to list Suppliers and a sub form with combobox that lists Products.I want to select a supplier from the Stock form and then the combobox in the subform to only list products directly sold by the Supplier.Have dabbled in SQL as follows:
SELECT Products.ProductID, Products.ProductName FROM Suppliers INNER JOIN Products ON Suppliers.SupplierID = Products.SupplierID WHERE ((Stocksubform.SupplierID=Stock.SupplierID)) ORDER BY Products.ProductName;
I am still trying to get a hang of development in access 2010.
I would like to design a form with a listbox or a combobox which holds all 8 of my reports (a table has all the reports), with a Print and a Preview view buttons. In addition, the user must be able to select if they want to view the report by month, quarter and the year in question.
How do i have a specific report print or previewed based on the value selected in the listbox or combobox and the date criteria.
If I have a link setup from an access 2010 table to a word 2010 document, is there a way to export the hyperlink address in the table to word as an executable link. Rather than having to insert the link manually as a hyperlink.
I'm creating this database for a claims management company. Yesterday I learnt about making a many to one relationship between the claims and clients tables.
Turns out its more complicated than that. Since I'm dealing with claims, a person may add their partner as the second claimant. (usually the case in mortgages)
So where parties A and B are in a relationship:
person A may claim on their own Person B may claim on their own Person A may be the primary claimant and add person B or conversely person B may be the primary claimant, adding person A.
The end goal is to automatically fill in a financial form (making use of a mail merge). So from what I know I think this means:
that grouping them as one contact is not going to work as I need them to be able to do a solo claim, and also I will not be able to easily change around who is the primary or secondary claimant, which will then carry over onto the mail merge.
So I think this means I need them as two separate contacts. However, I don't know how to create a link between them to easily add their partner to a claim.
Would this also mean I need a many to many relationship between clients and cases.
I searched this forum just for "treeview" and on the 2nd or 3rd page I found a post with a link for some lessons on treeview. Part 1 was to make a treeview with the word Hello. Part 2 was for another lesson on treeview.Tried to find that link again and for the life of my I'm unable to find it.
I've composed a table in Access 2010 that I want to use as an annex to a printed document. However, each time I try to print out a hard copy it includes the table title and the date of printing. How do I stop this?
Is there a way to get information in the print dialog box (File -> Print)? Like when i click ok or cancel? Or any other way that i will be able to know that the report is sent to printer or being printed.
I've got an Access 2010 application that currently links to a SQL Server 2000 database. I need to change the link to a SQL Server 2008 database on a different server. Where do I go to change the link? When I click on External Data, ODBC Database, I only get an option to import source data. I don't want to import any data. I just want the application to link to a different external database. If I go ahead and click OK, I choose my ODBC connection and log in to the 2008 database. Now I've got a list of "import objects" to choose from. I choose one table (just for testing; I actually want to link with all tables), it says it imported successfully, but when I view the data in that table from Access, it's the same old 2000 database data.
So I've just started with a company where my job is to manage a ton of data. I am new to Access (2010) and am completely impressed by all the awesome things it can do. However, I am running into some issues with knowing the best way to get my current data (which is all in Excel spreadsheets) into Access.
We are working with about 68 customers in 6 different focus areas (or areas of improvement). To make it easier for them, my company has not required them to enter all their data for each area into a centralized database. Instead, we are pulling reports (into Excel) from 3 different databases. The customers who are not currently submitting data to these databases are sending us Excel spreadsheets with their data (they send a seperate spreadsheet for each focus area). So you can see where my problem lies ... NOTHING is the in the same format. Even then the Excel spreadsheets look different from month to month (and customers submit a new, updated form every month with the current month and previous months) because the people managing the data before I came along changed the format a few different times and the customer has the ability to change them too.
Basically, I would really really really like to be able to just link the Excel files to my database, but I am struggling knowing how to do that with my data in so many different places and forms.
I'm trying to design a billing and invoicing database and can't seem to figure out how to link the tables and track the payments made by customers. How can I proceed to track the payments and make payments applicable to certain line items or invoices? If the line item hasn't been paid, it needs to show up on the next invoice and be included in the total due.
I want to export my data in "Asset_Table" link table to another file store in "d:Database1.accdb" with table name "AssetList". The Code i used as below. But when i opening the "Database1" file, the Table "Assetlist" is a LINK table type (I want Local Table). how to export the Link table data to Local Table data on another Database file.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Private Sub Copy_Click() DoCmd.TransferDatabase transfertype:=acExport, _ databasetype:="Microsoft Access", _ databasename:="d:Database1.accdb", _ ObjectType:=ACTable, Source:="Asset_Table", _ Destination:="AssetList", structureonly:=False End Sub <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
I have a database setup to keep track of spare parts in my inventory. I want to have a button on my form page that will bring up a file with pictures of the object.
While I have worked with computer all my life I am new to Access. I managed to create my database and the report I wanted to generate. However; I cannot get the Report Header to print on all pages. It only prints on the first page.
When I have the Home and Create default ribbons showing... then when I choose to Preview a report the Print Preview Ribbon is displayed and the Home and Create Ribbons are hidden or not visible.I have created a CustomRibbon and this CustomRibbon is not hidden when I choose to preview a report. The Print Preview ribbon is shown but the CustomRibbon keeps the focus and is not hidden.I would like for the CustomRibbon to not be visible.
