General :: Box Does Not Automatically Dismiss When Nothing Is Pressed

Nov 18, 2014

I wish to use message boxes that pop up when certain options are chosen, that can either be immediately cleared by clicking the 'OK' button or that disappear by themselves after a short period (10 seconds in this case). After searching the net for various options, I found the following code:

Code:
Set objShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
intReturn = objShell.PopUp("Date of Birth updated", 10, "FYI", 64)

(The 64 displays an information symbol).The box is displayed correctly and the 'OK' button works fine, but the box does not automatically dismiss when nothing is pressed.

Forms :: Goto Record With First Letter Of Key Pressed

Jun 20, 2013

I'm looking for a simple routine, preferably in the On Key Down or or On Key Press event of a form to quickly navigate to a record based on the key pressed.

I have a form with names in a table layout (continuous form).If the user is on the name field, I'd like it to navigate to the first record that contains first letter of the key pressed. So if a user presses "K", the form will go to the first record that starts with a K.Yes, the names in the form are alphabetical, but in a list with over 100 names, this could speed things up just a bit and save a lot of scrolling and looking.I was thinking of using KeyCode and I already have an event to navigate by the arrow keys so I'm considering building on that.

Code:
If KeyCode = 40 Then ' Down arrow
DoCmd.GoToRecord acForm, Me.Name, acNext
ElseIf KeyCode = 38 Then ' Up arrow
DoCmd.GoToRecord acForm, Me.Name, acPrevious
End If

I am thinking to use a Select Case and add the key codes for all the letters.

Forms :: How To Know If A Button Was Pressed At Beginning Of Field AfterUpdate

Aug 8, 2013

Here is my problem

In namefield_AfterUpdate, I check for duplicate name entries and notify the user if any are found - they are prompted as to whether the duplicate was accidental or intentional and continue working. This works fine for normal circumstances.

However, if the user updates namefield so that the value is a duplicate of an existing name in the database, but then presses Cancel (or Delete), then the namefield_AfterUpdate is fired and what button they pressed. The button Click code does not run first.

How can I tell if the user updated the name, but then realized they didn't want to save, and then clicked 'Cancel' (or any button) and the code should really skip the duplicate check validations/messages?

Modules & VBA :: Disabling Option Group If A Button Is Pressed

Jun 16, 2014

I have an option group with 2 buttons in it, yes and no. It is set to default to No, but if someone hits Yes I want it to enable or turn on the next option group. Would just simply changing visible status disable it? Because I have a series of codes set up based on the second option group which read as:

Code:
Private Sub NumberOfAdditionalSites_Option1_GotFocus()
Me.AdditionalSitesLabel1.Visible = True
Me.AdditionalSitesText1.Visible = True
End Sub

[Code] .....

I do not want these to be visible if the initial option group is still set to no.

Forms :: Record Is Written Only When Command Button Is Pressed

Sep 17, 2013

I have a form which displays some product details and a stock level. The subform below it allows entry of a quantity to issue and a control button to run a small macro, write a movement record to a stock movement table and then close the form. This works fine.

But the user can also cause the movement record to be written just by keying in a quantity and tabbing out. If this is done several times it writes several movement records and doesn't close the form. I want to ensure that record is only written when the command button is pressed.

Perhaps there is a more conventional or better way of achieving what I want but I can't think of it.

Modules & VBA :: Cancel OnExit Event When Another Command Button Is Pressed

May 8, 2015

I have a form with a control for the user to enter some data and then two command buttons 'OK' and 'Cancel'

For the OnExit event in the control I have a procedure that check the user input and if incorrect, opens a message box with an error message asking the user to correct the data. It then cancels the event so the focus remains in the current control.

However if the user presses the 'Cancel' command button on the form to cancel & close the form, the OnExit event for the current control still fires and asks the user to correct the data.

In my code in the control, how can I recognise that the Cancel command button has been pressed, so I can cancel the OnExit event and close the form?

i pland on haveing this type for each course and varying it as applicable but this did not work and apparantley i was breaching the fundamental rules of relational data.

Forms :: Display Row Names And Blank Table Until Filter Button Is Pressed

Jan 7, 2015

So what I've basically got here is a form with 4 combo boxes and a button that when clicked will filter the results of a table (which is a subform/subreport) based on the values inside the combo boxes. So the problem I have is that when I open up the form it displays a fully filled table but I just want to display the row names and a blank table until the filter button is pressed.

General :: Automatically Delete Data That Meets Criteria?

Mar 15, 2013

I'm an amateur (is there such a thing as having databases as a hobby?) with little training. I volunteered to organize a growing volunteer group I'm a part of by making a simple database for the volunteer office staff. One of the things I want it to do is make name tags for our weekly meetings. I don't want to print one for each name on our list because the list is over 400 names long with only around 35 regular attendees. I made two tables--one is the MakeNameTag table that lists regular attendees (it is a lookup field on the Names table).

The other is the Absences table. It has two fields; DateOfAbsence and MakeNameTag. If someone misses a meeting (does not pick up their name tag), their name is added to the Absences table. A query then filters the table for dates in the last 28 days. If their names shows up four times in the last 28 days I want for their name to be deleted from the MakeNameTag table. How to do that automatically? Our office volunteers have minimal PC skills, so the solution needs to be very user-friendly.

General :: Fill In Date Automatically When New Record Is Created

Dec 18, 2012

I would like to have a date control on a form filled in automatically with the current date when a new record is created (the date would remain as is unless changed manually). I've tried programming it in VB but, being a newbie, have not been able to come up with anything that works. I'm not even sure how to trigger an event to do it just the one time when the record is created.
