General :: Pulling Certain Names From A Query To Populate A List Box?
Jun 19, 2015
I have a form set up (in a list box) to show our salespeople what parts they have yet to get out of inventory but have a sales order for. The list box shows a list of all the salespeoples names. My manager wants me to show ONLY the salespeople that have populated fields in this list box. The list box currently shows all the salespeople, but I want to see only the ones that have inventory that has yet to shipped. How do I go about this?
I am trying to populate a ListBox with the names of the tables from another database. I have the following function which loops the table names from the database I want. The function is caleld on Form Load and passed into the ListBox but the List Box is empty.The message box in the function does display the table names when called from the form. I just cannot get the list box to populate.
Code:
Public Function ListTables() Dim db As Database Dim i As Integer Dim s As String Dim tdefs As TableDefs, tdef As TableDef Set db = DBEngine.OpenDatabase("C:MyPathAnalyzed Tables.mdb")
1. I want to populate a list box with all the Tables Names in my Database using VBA.
2. I also want to create another List Box or Grid (or any thing that will show table data) that when i have select a Table Name (See above (1)) it will show all the data in that table in the List Box. Was thinking some kind of SQL using vba to populate the list box?
I have a table of data which includes a date field and also various other fields which may or may not be filled with data.I'm trying to populate a listbox with the months for which this data is missing (a separate macro will then loop through these months to fill the missing data) But I only want each distinct month to populate the listbox - not each individual date.
Code: strSQL = "SELECT DISTINCT month([EntryDate]), year([EntryDate]) FROM [SampleTable] WHERE [ValueField] Is Null" Me.lstSampleListBox.RowSource = strSQL
I am trying to populate a list box with an event after update in a combo box. I can get the formula to work using 2 criteria, the problem is i nee to add a third criteria. When I try to add it I get the run-time 13 error.
Here is the code I am trying to use:
Private Sub cboStatusRFQ_AfterUpdate() Me.cboSupplier.RowSource = "SELECT DISTINCT [Consolidated_Master_Req_Pool.RFQ Contact] " & _ "FROM Consolidated_Master_Req_Pool " & _ "WHERE consolidated_master_req_pool.Complete = FALSE AND [Consolidated_Master_Req_Pool.RFQ Supplier] = '" & Nz(cboStatusRFQ.Value) & "'" And "[cosolidated_master_req_pool.Status] = '" & "[SUPPLIER_RFQ FOLLOW-UP]" & "'" & _ "ORDER BY [Consolidated_Master_Req_Pool.RFQ Contact];" Me.cboSupplier = Null End Sub
I wonder how can I list all the column names for a given table using a single query? I know how to do it in SQL using system tables, but no idea how to do that in Access.
I need to give users the ability to change the font of a field in a report. The field shows a barcode.
I thought of using the CommonDlg class to show the Windows font-selecting dialog box, but installed barcode fonts show as a barcode. I need to show the font name.
So I need to populate a combo box with the names of all fonts installed on a computer. The fonts reside in C:windowsfonts
I have searched Google for a solution but cannot find one.
How do I populate a combo box with the names of all fonts installed on a computer?
I’m developing a claim tracking database that tracks dates of events that occur in the course of processing a claim; such as, Loss Date, Report Date, Estimate Date, Payment Date, etc. There are 16 different “Events” in all.I currently have the following tables set up:
tblClaim ClaimID ClaimNumber fkEmpID
tblEmployee EmpID EmpName
[code]....
What I need to do is create a form where management can choose two or more events, and calculate the average number of days between two of any of the events, for an employee, or all employees.I have created a crosstab query to change the values in the EventName field in tblEvents to field names, and the EventDate as values for the related EventNames. I created another query based on this query to do the DateDiff.
I created combo boxes on my form with the Row Source Type set to Field List, for a list of fields in my crosstab query. I’ve tried to use the following DateDiff function to get the days between the two fields selected in my combo boxes:
But I get an error about unrecognized field name or expression for my combo boxes. So I added my combo boxes in the query parameter window, with a data type as both text and value, but with both I get an error “This expression is typed incorrectly or is too complex to be evaluated.” I also specified the column headings in the crosstab but I still am getting the “too complex” error.I’m pretty sure it’s trying to do a Datediff on the literal values in the comboboxes and not recognizing that I’m trying to specify field names.Is it possible to assign field names in DateDiff this way?
How to populate a list box using another list box on the same form. I have this working completely fine if the the source list box has the multi select property configured to be off, however I need it to be set to extended multi select.
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 have a main screen that has a tabbed form in it. Each of those tabs has a sub-form in it that displays information and allows some information to be updated.
In one tab I have a query based sub-form that returns information related to the project. This information cannot be manipulated or changed as it comes out of a company managed database. I would like the analysts to be able to add more granular information to a new table by inputting information in a dropdown field for one of the new table fields, but utilizing two of the existing sub-forms fields as identifiers in the new table.
I would like to have a listbox that contains all of the fields names from a table. Since the user will be selecting items from this list box, the field names should be referred to by their captions as defined in the table.
The listbox values will change depending on the value selected from another listbox.
Question: using code, how can I fill a list box with field names and display the field caption?
I have a list box that is filled from a table with names of individuals. What I would like to do is when one of the names is selected it will take it off the list and do this for all the names in the list until all are removed then will reset and have the names avaialble once again. Is this possible and if so how can it be done? Thanks.
I am in the process of trying to merge two large databases. I have four tables that really should be one to work in the new DB. I just need to be able to print a list of fields in each table so that I can work on the new combined structure before making the changes. I know I can use the documenter but this produces a very comprehensive list which is much more than I need. Is there anyway of producing a similar list without the detail, just showing the field names.
my search form has a combo box with "make"names. i can add new makes via a other form. so the combo box needs te run via a query so that it can list new makes (so that i can also search them). but, since some makes repeat them selves in the table, sometimes up to 15 times (see atachment 1), the combo box will show 15 times the same make. i just need it to show the make 1 time, all of the makes just 1 time. only way i can do that is to type them my self (see atachment 2). but then new makes that are added later wont be shown in the list.
so: i want that the make is only shown once in the list, and that the list is updated with new makes that are added later. how do i do that?
note: a "make" E.G = Philips, Apple, LG, Microsoft, creative etc (just for the lesser skilled english readers like me )
I am currently designing an employee personal development and training database.I have 100 employees and the number that would go on a training course might be a handful so selecting four or five names in a subform list from a 100 seems a bit impractical.
I thought of selecting the course in a form from a combo box, selecting the employees using a tickbox in a subform and then running an append query.
In my Access Database, for each row, there are two queries I want to pull data from to give me the status of the item in the related columns. In Excel, I use one file with multiple tabs to vlookup the data. How would I accomplish this in Access?
For Example, Jacksonville has a value of Submitted in the Completed Checklist Column and Approved in the Parts List Column. These values currently come from two separate tables. How do I get my database table to update when the status changes for each of the columns?
We have a form that will have one combo box for Associates (like Employee in the OPs DB) which I've got set to show only active Associates for new entry per the tips in the above thread, but we'll also have a combo box for Developer which I need to function the same way. I don't know how to add that part to the On Current event?
Code: Private Sub Form_Current() Dim strComboRowSource As String If Me.NewRecord Then strComboRowSource = "SELECT T_Associates.AssociateID, T_Associates.Associate, T_Associates.Active " & _ "FROM T_Associates " & _ "WHERE (((T_Associates.Active)=True));"
I created a multivalue list in my table. It contains a list of names and a checkbox. I designed the form based on this and am able to check off multiple names. When I go back to look at the table, it stores in each name separated by a comma. So far so good.
When I create a report to display the data, it displays it as 1,2,3..etc., instead of the names separated by a comma.
Is it possible to populate several fields on a form via a Nma e selected from a list box ie: the list box has several names in it, the names have data from another form (user details) such has Payrole No:, Holiday entitlement, etc.
I want to select a name from the List Box and have it populate (enter) data into field in the form being used.?
Hi there, I am finally underway with the forms etc, after having spent weeks planning and setting-up the table/relationships. I have entered some sample data so that I can test out the forms as I go. I have an "Unbound" list box and an "Unbound" combo box, (along with other stuff) on a form. The list box gets it's data from a Junction Table between "Customers" and "Products". I can get the list box to populate itself with ALL the product items in the junction table but I have tried and tried to filter the items down to match the selected value in the combo box. A couple of diagrams (jpegs) can be viewed here If anyone could spare the time to enlighten me on this "blind-spot" I would appreciate it very much. Thanx
I have drop down list linked to table included "agent names" , the names appeared normally in the form but not Alphabetic (A-Z) although the table was alphabetic .
In my list box I have two coloums, Surname and Christian Name, now can I get both names to go into a text field. I can get one of the names i.e surname or christian name by changing the bound coloum from 1 to 2. But I need both names to go across?
