General :: Listbox - Use Columns Data As Where Clause Of SQL String To Populate Another Form
Oct 5, 2012
I have a listbox that is populated with data from a table. I would like to use one of the columns data as the where clause of a sql string that will populate another form, how do I get the selected items column data that I need into a variable? This is in Access 2010 vba.
I have a select query that holds anywhere between 1 to a couple hundred records, I need to take the Name field and populate a textbox which after verification I write to a text file that I later use in a powershell script. So far have tried using VBA to create a variable and populate the textbox based on the string but it only provides me the first item, I've tried dmax and this gives me a single result last Item, Dlookup only gives me the first item, changed it to a listbox which populates the box correctly but only writes the selected item in to my text file.
i want to display a single field values in list box with query as row source.the query will produce variable number of records or rows. sometime 1, sometimes 3 or 6 my thought is to distribute these records/row into list box column. for example:
if query = 1 then listbox column = 1
if query = 6 then listbox column = 3 (two rows per column).
When I try to open the recordset with this, it says there is an error in the WHERE clause. I've tried changing all sorts of things but nothing works. I've tried with the WHERE clause commented out and it all works fine then.
In my tables I have a field called first serial. This is the first element of a serial number range associated with each record. Very rarely I have to ask the user to specify a certain serial number in that range. (The serial numbers can be generated easily from the first serial) This happens during the run of a macro, so I have to use a Fom opened with WindowMode:=acDialog. The problem is that I have to populate a listbox with the generated serial numbers on that form. But I can't interact with a dialog form, since it stopos the running of the macro. I have tried to open it hidden, and change the modal property to true once the listbox have been populated, but this dosen't stop the macro to wait for user input.Is it possibble to pass the first serial value to the form, and populate the listbox in one of the Form's opening events?
So i have query based on 1 table that populates a Form. The primary key for that table is Entity ID. Therefore once the query has been run I have multiple records that i can scroll through in my form distiguished by their Entity ID.
I have a second table that has a Entity ID column, AFE Available column, and many others. The primary key for this table is called Match ID. This table contains records that have the same Entity ID.
My goal is to display on the form the Sum of the "AFE Availible" for each Entity ID. so as you scroll through the records the Entity ID is changing and you are able to see a the Specific "AFE Availible" Sum related to the current Record showing on the form.
I couldn't figure out a way to have a query based off both tables where the records are only uniquely defined by the Entity ID in Budget Info. What was happening is the query was displaying all the records that had the same Entity ID because of the AFE Spent table. That way when you scroll through the records the form shoes records with the same entity id.
Maybe im doing it all wrong and you dont need the tables attached to the same query. That would make it easier i think. So you would have two queries populating different text boxes on a form. Is that even possible?
In the past a Teacher would manually create a Form (Student Form) containing Student information, (Name, Gender, Birthdate, Homegroup) as well as additional issues on the student. This would all be saved into a table.
I would like to change this manual process of typing in individually to each text box, therefore, I have been able to run a report from a external program that obtains (Name, Gender, Birthdate, Homegroup). This saves as CSV and I am able to import into a separate table within the database. This works no problem.
What I have set-up is a form that contains a listbox this contains the Student name and Homegroup from the imported table contents. Again this works fine.
What i would like to do is when a student is selected from the listbox and dbl clicked on, how can i make information (Name, Gender, Birthdate, Homegroup) populate the textboxes in the Student form that the teacher previously used? could this be an update query where the imported table information will then go into the Student form? If so, how can I tell the dbl click of highlighted name is the data i want to populate?
Hi, I'm new here, so I hope I'm posting this in the correct place. I've searched the forum to see if there are any existing threads that might help me, but I've not found anything that does... (I think this thread ( http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=93444&highlight=Copying+data )may be trying to achieve something similar to me, but I'm a beginner and don't really understand it)
I shall stop waffling! I'm not entirely sure that what I'm trying to achieve is possible, I expect it probably is!
Right, I have a form (frmGroupRegister, which contains exactly the same fields as the table it comes from, tblGroupRegister), which consists of three things:
-GroupDate - The date a group took place on. It is my primary key, as no more than one group occurs on a specific date.
-ParentList (A listbox which contains a query showing the ID number, forename and surname of everyone in a table, tblParentDetails)
-ParentsAttending (A blank listbox)
I would like to place buttons in between the ParentList and ParentsAttending, which would allow users to conduct a 'register' of attendance by copying individual/multiple details from ParentList into ParentsAttending (much like you get when choosing which fields to include in a form when using a wizard for example). I would also like them to be able to remove people from ParentsAttending by using a button in case of accidentally adding the wrong person into the ParentsAttending box.
I'm aware that another, probably simpler way of achieving this would be to use a tick-box system, but I feel that visually, the first method would both look better and demonstrate who is present more clearly.
Any help would be much appreciated, but my Access skills are quite basic and things will probably need to be spelled out for me. I'm using Access 2000 and Windows XP. Thanks for your help, Alice :)
I have a PDF form that I would like to populate with data already in our access database. Also if possible, I still want this form to be able to remain fillable. It does not have to auto populate back into access, just allow a user to enter data and save the form.
How to automatically populate the bound text box with data from a table for a specific entry. This is the code I wrote
Private Sub ListBox_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) Dim ListBoxSel As String ListBoxSel = Me.ListBox.Value Call proc_Update_TxtBoxes(Me.ListBox.Value) DoCmd.Close
I have a cross tab query that displays data by customer (rows) and MONTHS (columns).
However I need the columns to be the 12 months of the year 1 to 12.
However, if the selected data for a particular customer does not have any records in a month then I get an error in the report as the cross tab query only selects the months with data.
How do I get the report to show 0 or a blank in these columns
Is it possible to load the data in input from by double clicking on data from list box ?
I have single form on which both input form and read-only form is present. as i used visible property to display or not accordingly.
User enters the data from input form. (It has been done)
User go onto read only form where combo box and list box. from drop down values load into list-box. (It has been done)
Now double click on any record then it should re-directed on input form with loading the data in editable mode for updation purpose. ???? (How this step will be done) ?
I have a tblWorkoutLog which contains workout data (body focus, excercise, date, etc.).
I have a listbox (populated from a table) which allows a user to select a/several body focus (arms, legs, etc.). Once the selections are made, a query is created with the IN command to filter based on the selections.
I would like to add a second listbox that will populate with dates that are associated with the selections made in the first list box. For example, if "arms" and "legs" were selected, I want all the dates where "arms" or "legs" were worked on to populate the second listbox. After the user makes those selections, I would like create a final query with the output (i.e. all data associated with "arms" and "legs" on the selected dates).
The first listbox works great, but I don't know how to populate the second listbox and use that selected information.
I am learning code and SQL statements as I go so please be patient with me.
basically i'll have one table, containing several fields. name/website/date.i want to create a form/s for users to use. 1 is to allow the user to create a new record. i've completed this ok
the second form is to allow users to open a form, enter/select data and run this.....and the output goes to a report.i've created the query ok.....however, when i create a form to "link" to the query open the form, it shows all my records in table i.e. i can move through the records (from bottom of form) and when i actually fill in the form it actually modifies the data in the table.
I'm trying to populate a field in my form from a query. I've been trying to figure it out from the web but can't get it sorted. I've got a combo box that selects a member of staff from a table, and then a query runs which takes the value from that combo to retrieve the staffs current rate of pay.
I've added this code to the on change event on the combo.
Private Sub cboStaffID_Change() Me.txtunit.Value = [qrycurrentpay]![Unit] End Sub
But it doesn't seem to work,
txtunit is the field I want to fill on my form, and Unit is he field name of the value I want from query qrycurrentpay.
I am trying to calculate the keystage and year group of pupils on my database. I have created queries that successfully calculate the data, but I cant work out how to add the results from my queries into an already created form. I thought I could use DLookup, but this just populates with a random value from the data and not the value for that particular pupil.
I am struggling with a slight form delay. When it opens on the OnOpen event, i am populating a grid. This takes about 3 to 5 seconds but, the it also takes the form the same time to open. What i need to do is get the form to open then populate the grid. Can i make the form open first then populate?
The following code works to change the column header name for a listbox in form view when the data source is a local table, but not when the data comes from a sharepoint list.
Code: sqlstatement = "SELECT ID, PONum as [PO Number], ActDate as [Date], VendorName as [Vendor Name], Service, BuildingNumber as [Building Number], ReservationDescription as [Description], POAmount as [Amount], QuoteType as [Type of Quote], Comments" & _ " FROM ActivityLog" & _ " WHERE (Activity = 'AcceptReservation') AND (PSCName = '" & Me.PSCCombo4.Column(0) & "')" & _ " ORDER BY ActDate;" 'MsgBox sqlstatement Me.EditPOListBox.RowSource = sqlstatement sqlstatement = ""
Also it appears that there is no such thing as a caption property for a sharepoint list column.
I want to pass a search parameter from a form to a query then use the query results to populate a multi-column list box. So far, I can pass the parameter to the query and generate results, however, I want the query results sent to a listbox rather than create a new window.
I set up the listbox to receive results from the query, but when the form opens the listbox is already populated with arbitrary query results. I want the listbox to be empty when the form is opened, I submit a parameter to a query, and the listbox fills with the results
Additionally, once the listbox is populated, I want to clear the listbox but am having the error: The RowSourceType property must be set to 'Value List' to use this method.
I have a Microsoft Access table with the following columns: A,B,C,D,E,F. In first row of Column A, I have the following string value: "Al,Peggy,Kelly,Bud,Buck" What I would like to do is parse this string as such:
For whatever reason when I try to add up two columns in a query instead of adding up the two numbers it displays it as a text string. So if one column has a 5 and the other is a 2 I am looking for the calculated column to reflect 7, currently it is showing 5,2.
I have added up items in the past so I am unsure what the problem is
