General :: Open Calendar Control Replacement On A Certain Date?
Jul 27, 2013
a couple of months ago i found a celndar control replacement that Microsoft kindly provided. i have made a few mods that allow me to change the day/week etc. i would now like to tell it to open on a certain date. the reason is that on each of my client records i have 'Future Appointments'. i would like to be able to select a future appointment and click a button that then opens a form that includes the calendar and go to the date of the future appointment. the calendar controls the diary. whatever date the calendar is on the diary matches. so to change to the date of the appointment i need to change the calendar date.
that didnt work as the calendar does not seem to recognise it.
i am totally lost with this as i dont even understand most of the code that is behind the calendar, so i dont know what i am looking for to use to open it on a given date.
I am trying miserably to help a student use the Calendar Control to Open and Go to a specific record
I want to click on a specific date in the calendar in a form eg 09/03/06 and then open the "Bookings" form and go to the record with the field "Date" with the value 09/03/06
I'm recently added the CalendarControl 9.0 into some combo boxes in order to quickly input dates - however only the dates are then added, not the day of the week. The day of the week would be really useful if it was visible as the form is outputted to a HTML page for our intranet for other staff to see.
My (relevant) code at the moment is as follows:
-------------------------------------------------
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Dim cboOriginator As ComboBox
Private Sub cboStartDate_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Set cboOriginator = cboStartDate
ocxCalendar.Visible = True ocxCalendar.SetFocus
If Not IsNull(cboOriginator) Then ocxCalendar.Value = cboOriginator.Value Else ocxCalendar.Value = Date End If End Sub
Private Sub cboEndDate_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Set cboOriginator = cboEndDate
ocxCalendar.Visible = True ocxCalendar.SetFocus
If Not IsNull(cboOriginator) Then ocxCalendar.Value = cboOriginator.Value Else ocxCalendar.Value = Date End If End Sub
Private Sub Form_Load() ocxCalendar.Visible = False End Sub
Private Sub ocxCalendar_Click() cboOriginator.Value = ocxCalendar.Value cboOriginator.SetFocus ocxCalendar.Visible = False Set cboOriginator = Nothing End Sub
I need to set calendar control as criteria for date in VBA query. I cannot find Calendar control in ActiveX tools in Acc 2010. Where is it?
Date picker seams like very slick and simple solution but I can see it only in database. As it might be solution to my problem, can date picker be used on a form as criteria for VBA query?
I am trying to allow a calendar to search through a text box with a large amount of data in which will have headings using the date so i wanted to use a calendar search. Hopefully this will be be like the find function in word where you type (or in this case select a date) then click search or next which will take you to that specific date.
I have a database that has textfields / forms, what I would like to do is to add an option that when the textfield is clicked a calendar will appear and when the user selects the date in the calendar interface, it will insert the date for them.
I have a continuous form bound to a query. I want to filter this form with any date inputted into a text box through a pop-up calendar control. The default date in the text box should be Date().In the query, I set the criteria on Call_Date filled as follows but the form does not requery to return the expected data:
I have started converting our Access 2003 to Access 2010 applications. In the past we have used the Calendar to pick a date to place in a textbox. I noticed that this feature will not work in Access 2010.
So I looked around and saw several references to using the calendar pick feature to a textbox...but without success.
How to have a textbox with a calendar icon next to it to populate the chosen date in the textbox?
I am using Access 2003. I have a form with two text fields that I have configured as "Short Date". I set up Calendar Control as a new popup form (frm_Calendar) and set up the date fields to popup the Calendar on double click. I have 2 problems.
1. The calendar does not want to default to today's date. I tried entering "=Date()" into the "Value" field of Calendar Control, but it removes that code after I click off of it. So how can I get Calendar Control to default to today's date?
2. When I double click on a calendar date, I want that date to be posted into the date field. How do I get it to do that? I looked at all the properties, but did not see a way to tell the date field to accept the calendar entry.
I would like to copy one control, then close this form, open concrete form and pass value to control.
My code is
Private Sub Menu_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "frmZleceniaMarzenaNawigacjaPD" Forms!frmZleceniaMarzenaNawigacjaPD.Form!Imie = Me.Imie Forms!frmZleceniaMarzenaNawigacjaPD.Form!Imie.SetFocus DoCmd.Close acForm, Me.name End Sub
The problem is, still opens the previous form, not form "frmZlecenia"
e.g If I open form x then from this form I open my modal form "frmZlecenia" and then I will click "menu" button - now form "x" is open :/, but should be "frmZleceniaMarzenaNawigacjaPD"
There is some way to open concrete form from modal form?
I want to use the calendar control on a form, but cannot find a way to 'minimise' it when it is not needed. I feel sure that there is a way to do this. Can anyone help?
I am creating an employee scheduling application to use for ambulances. In one form, I am trying to list those scheduled to the various shifts by date so that we can edit an individual day.
I firstly, want to open the form with the today's date and the employees accordingly. I am using the following code in the form_Current(), the form_GotFocus(), form_load(), and form_Open(Cancel as Integer) subs.
ctlCalendar.Value = Date
I cannot get it to display to today's date.
I am then wanting to pass the date to the query which selects the employees that are working each duty position. When the form opens it opens the oldest record, not today's. I think that there's a problem with the WHERE portion of my SQL statement.
When a user selects a date on the Calendar Control, I want to re-run the query and display the employee's scheduled to work on the selected date.
I have a form with calendar control 11.0 placed on it.
When the form opens, the calendar is invisible.
When the cursor enters a field called ClassDate the calendar (calClassCalendar) becomes visible.
When the user clicks a date on the calendar control I want that date to appear in in the ClassDate field.
I would have expected the Calendar Control to have an OnClick Event Property that would have allowed something like ClassDate.value=calClassCalendar.val
To my complete dismay there is NO OnClick event on the Calendar Control.
How to I get the Calendar Control's date to display in the ClassDate field?
Hi, I have a form that has 2 Calendar Controls that is used to select a Start Date and an End Date. I then have some code that will enter all the dates inbetween into the database.
One thing I would like to have on the form, is when the users selects a date from each calendar. The date is displayed in a text box under it. Just to have a visual double check to make sure they selected the right month/day/year before they hit the submit button.
Anyone know what code I would need to put in my form to make it do this?
Please can someone advise me how I can link the date which I select in the calendar control to a date field in the form. I want to use the calendar instead of a combo box. It's probably simple....but then so am I! Help appreciated Richard
I would like the calendar control to default to the current month and year (if there is no date in the control source). I don't want to set it to the current date.
I'm using the Microsoft Calendar Control 11 to populate a date field on a form. The date field has a format of "Medium". When I use the control, I select todays date and what gets populated is 30/12/1899. But...if I immediately go back to the Calendar control and select todays date, then the proper value gets added.
This happens for every NEW record I create. What is happening??
I have been using a calendar control on a subform and have now split the data into a tabbed form with 4 subforms. The calendar is now entering the date selected into the first record of each subform instead of just the one on the subform that has the focus.
Do I need to add the calendar control to each subform now or is there a way to reference the correct form in my current code?
Private Sub Calendar_Click()
' Enters the selected date into the DateCompleted field
I have attached a condensed copy of my form/sub-form that has calendar controls on it for the RecvdDt and the Compliance date. I have it set up the say way as I have on other databases and it will not close/populate once opened. I have reset the events on it multiple times and I just can't get it to go.
Can anyone please take a quick look and help me determine why it is not working on this form yet works on others that I have.
I am trying to use an unbound subform based on a query to display only records for a specific date. The query works fine on its own, but the subform returns a blank. I am using the Calendar control on the same form for the user to select the date they wish to view. This in turn inserts the selected date from the calendar into a textbox on the main form and the query that the subform is based on reads this and opens the corresponding records.
Problem, its not working.
Thank you in advance if you can help me throw some light on this one.
I want to be able to click on the date in a calendar control and the jobs scheduled for that day appear on the screen. Is this possible and how would I go about this. I created a query to pull the information I need and I attached that query to a form, I then placed the calendar control the form but I am unable to get the control to pull the data.
