General :: Lock / Unlock Full Menu Based On A Password
Sep 28, 2014
I want to lock down and unlock the full menu based on a password..
For instance upon load of the database I would like it stripped down when a general user logs in... but if a admin logins in then they get all menus...
so based on the user type will dictate the menus visible.. cane this be achieved'''''''''''';
I have a form with 2 option buttons on it one with year 12 on it and one with year 13. I have a simple form with drop down menus and text boxes allocated for year 12s and 13s. I want all of the year 13 text boxes and drop down lists to be locked if year 12 is selected and I want all of the year 12 text boxes and drop down lists to be locked if year 13 is selected. I do not want to over complicate the form by hiding parts of it or having a new form open depending on the option button selected.
I am trying to open my form locked and have the uers click a button to unlock the form to enter data. The way i do it now is have 2 forms one set to allow edits "yes" the other set to "no" and then have a button for each
This is working ok but i would like to tidy things up a bit and get it to one button.
I struggle with programming but i will do my best to understand any posts.

Code: (THIS NEVER WORKS FOR ME - RUNTIME ERROR) Me.AllowEdits = Me.Parent.AllowEdits Me.AllowDeletions = Me.Parent.AllowDeletions Me.AllowAdditions = Me.Parent.AllowAdditions
So the main form is locked upon opening and unlocked with the click of an unlock button. How to apply this to the subforms as well. They just stayed unlocked the whole time.
Hi everyone, I was trying out the options on the startup item of the tools item on the menu bar and my access window has gone except the following menu items: File,Window and Help. Can someone kindly show me how to bring back these seemingly lost items? Thank you for your willingness to help me out!
I have created a web-database (? - There are globes over all the forms and tables icons) based on the Issues & Tasks template. This means that most of the data is entered and seen on the "Main" form, which has two tabs - Open Issues and Closed Issues. I have created a form that allows people at my work to input the necessary data and save it, so that it will show up on one of the two tabs. However, once a record has been created, I want to be initially locked if the ID/PK is clicked, so that data can't be changed or entered inadvertently.
SO, I changed the code so that when the ID/PK for a record is clicked, it brings up a different form, but one that looks exactly like the one that is brought up when entering a new form, but I locked all of the fields so that the information cannot be changed. It seems from what I have read that I can create a button on this form so that when clicked, it unlocks the fields on the form so that they can be changed, and then when clicked again it will lock the fields again. Is this true? If so, how can I do it? Or is there something similar I can do? I have seen codes that I could copy and paste, but I cannot figure out the place to copy and paste codes in Access 2010.
I have changed the Form properties so that Data Entry and all the "Allows" are set to No...
Apologies if I am covering old ground here but unfortunately I cannot find a suitable solution after searching the forum.
Basically my switchboard on Open includes DoCmd.Maximize so that the switchboard does indeed open on full screen. However, say I then leave my database open and work on a different application on my PC then when I click on my database on the taskbar then the form is not longer full screen.
So what I am basically asking is, is there a way of 'locking' it to appear full screen even if I flick between applications on my PC?
How do I regain the full menu bar in my dbase. I had unclicked "Allow Full Menus" and "Allow Default Shortcut Menus" and now I need to regain those features.
- Form 2 to be locked but its "MaterialRequest" is enabled. - HandledBy to be unlocked if the MaterialRequest meets the "Status" of "frmMaterialRequest" which is "Approved".
I'm creating a database full of contacts. I have a contacts table with detailed info on each contact and I also have a company table with details on each company - all companies attached to a contact are in the company table plus a few others. I'd like to be able to pull up a company profile and see all the contacts we have associated with that company displayed in a list.
I'm trying to lock certain fields on my form based on the value in a particular field. It seems to work the first time but applies itself to all other records in the database from then on!
The starting point is a command button that sends an email and makes Me.DPLLock = 1. The corresponding table entry is formatted as a number.
The code is...
Private Sub Form_Current() If Me.DPLLock = 1 Then Me.OR_Name.Locked = True Me.OR_Sales_Order.Locked = True Me.OR_WO_No.Locked = True Me.OR_Qty.Locked = True
Hi it possible for lookup in 1 column to be dependant on the lookup on another columns depending on what is clicked in a form to make it easier
brand table field 1: Number auto field 2: Drink linked to lookup table called drinks field 3: type of drink linked to lookup table called subdrinks
Drinks table Pepsi Coke other
Subdrinks table original coke cola diet coke coke with vanilla coke with lemon original pepsi diet pepsi persi max pepsi with lemon
now in a form looking at the brand table. the person clicks on Drinks = picks coke from drop down menu what I need is if the person picks on coke the next drop down menu type of drink it should only show those related to coke. original coke cola diet coke coke with vanilla coke with lemon what i am getting is the second drop down shows everyhting and if the user makes a mistake the reports ie chose coke but in the next field chooses diet pepsi, the data does not make any sense. is there any way to limit the second drop down based on the choice in the first drop down.if there are any ideas to help in this matter maybe some VBA or macro may be required, i am not too sure open for suggestions and help would be appreciated. Thanks
how to lock access DB Tables ,Queries, Report so other's can not import them to other access database (without encrypting my database with password ).I've noticed when forms have VBA codes it cant be imported if they locked by password(VBA) !

I want to keep the navigation pane open for use by the users, but I want it locked so that the users can't click on the top menu and change the pane's display from All Access objects to any of the other choices.
LockNavigationPane set to Yes is not the solution as this only prevents people adding, deleting and moving objects (such as tables/querys/forms).
I have a terrible skill in this but I am doing my best to find ways. But I am running out of time in the development stage. I have the following form and table:
Tables: Eqpt EqptHistory
Forms: frmEqpt frmHistory
frmEqpt is the Mother form and frmHistory is the subform connected thru eqptID. Now what I want to do is count the records in the frmHistory and Locked the fields for editing. If it is new records, the fields will automatically unlock.
How do I do that because I can't find a way to count the fields with records and lock them.
I have 4 users all with the same rights. What I want to do is lock each individual record created by each user from the other 3 users after they have been saved ( I am not referring to record locking/table locking while updating/creating ). i.e., They can all read each others created records BUT only update/modify their own created records. They all have individual passwords to log in.
