General :: How To Make Combo Boxes Only Show Selected Options
Jul 6, 2013
What I am trying to do is create a master table which references the every other table.But the primary key references another primary key.I can get the combo box to display all the options, buy shows options already selected for other records.in other words...
I have 4 reference IDs from table A.
(ID1, ID2, ID3, ID4)
Master_Table has a combobox to select between the IDs.
if record 1 has ID_1
Record 2's combobox will show all 4 IDs
If I only have 1 ID that can be put into record 4, it's combobox still
displays all 4 IDs.
What I want is: If ID3 is selected for record 1, it wont be displayed in the comboboxes for the other records.

I have several comboboxes (6) on my form.How to populate these comboboxes with values depending on selected value in previous combobox.
Example.Lets say that you select value "Audi" in combobox 1, then available values in combobox 2 should be "A4","A6","TT" etc. and if you selected "BMW" in combobox 1, then available values in combobox 2 should be "3-series", "5-series" etc...

I have a form that has four combo boxes on it that enable the user to select entrants in a golf tournament for tee off times and tee. (I have attached part of this database to this post) It all works fine but after selecting the first player in the first combo box and then selecting the second combo player I would like the player selected previously not to show up. Is this possible or do I have to rethink the way players are selected.

Any way, I have created a table "accountstbl" to which i have AccountsID, Accountnumber, Accountname, Accountaddress, Accountcontact fields.
My question is i created a form with a combo box linking it to the accountstbl and Accountname field. When i click on the combo box it lists all my Accountnames from the accountstbl which i want but i want to click on an account name and once selected it will show a report of the selected name.
Reading through lengthy pages there is reference to event procedures but this is code which i do not know.
Simples is me select name from combo box and voila you have a report of your selected account name.

I have a form that our operators use to do their hourly quality audits on. This is getting to be a huge burden on them because right now, they enter the date, the week ending date, the month every time they have to do an entry, and for me it is a nightmare because they can still enter the wrong information. So, what I was wondering is if there is a way that I can have them select the date from a combo box (easy enough), but from that, have the week ending date and the month fields automatically update as well. Any advice? I would really appreciate it! Thanks so much!!!!

I am using Access 2010 (self taught and continuing to learn each time I get asked for a new report). I have created a query based on the data being selected from two combo boxes on a form, ie start date and end date. The report works as it should but I want to be able to automatically use the dates in the report heading. For instance, Summary Report from xxxxx to xxxxx, where xxxxx is the start and end dates that the user entered into the two combo boxes.
The date field on my query reads
Between [forms]![F - CboReportDates]![Start Date] And [forms]![F - CboReportDates]![EndDate]

I linked table rawdata from a database called competitor from a ODBC Database. I run a query with to make a table with a criteria where it retrieves roughly 10 columns with 719,000 rows. And it gives me this error.
(Cannot open database". It may not be a database that your application recognizes, or the file may be corrupt.
I asked the creator of the database and they said the database grows automatically and it was created with the same Access version as i am using to run the query.
Also when I do a RUN without creating a table and just selecting and displaying the data it does not give me any issues.

I have strange issue when creating auto populated text boxes which displays rows from combo boxes.
In one database auto populates works with simple text box Control Source edit "=[ComboName].[Column](NumberOfColumn)".
Somehow same method doesn't wotk in different database: here one time I have to insert VBA code at On change Event:
Me.TextBoxName = Me.ComboName.Column(NumberOfColumn)
And other time it wont work with On change but only with After Update Event (code is same).
Another thing this morning happens was that when I tried to add new record trough form where combo box and tex boxes are located, MS Office suddenly stopped working after selecting combo box selection (with message Microsoft Office has Stopped Working). It is 2013 version.
I got it work after deleting and re-inserting VBA code to autopopulate text box at After Update Event.

I am building a tracking database where we would be able to track information which field are null data and report them to our Administration to fill the null data. For this I have created a form name "Search" and I have a combo box control on that form which is bound to "Table = employee" and its ROW SOURCE TYPE="Field List", I would like to able to query records where the selected value in this combo box is null through out the table.
For example if I select "Telephone" from this combo box dropdown, I would like the query to show all the records where the "Telephone" is null, how to set the criteria in query to take the combo box value as "Field Name" and then compare it with the Field/Column in the table and show the null values.

I'm trying to create a form which filters a report based off of combo boxes selected by the user. The code I'm using currently is:
Code:
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptProgramAttendees", acViewReport, , "ProgramIDFK = " & cboProgramTitle
This works great to return a report if the user selects something from the combo box. How do I adapt this so that the user can also leave the combo box blank and filter the report to return all records?Additionally, what if I want to have the user filter between dates selected on the form; i.e. between 'txtStart' and 'txtEnd'

I am new to MS Access. So I am making a database for an automobile warehouse. When a new car arrives at the warehouse, it is allocated a specific parking slot (using a combo box available on the 'New Arriving Car' form).
However, once a specific slot has been allotted, the end-user should not be able to allot the same parking slot to other arriving cars, until the original car has left the warehouse so that the parking slot becomes available once again. Currently, the parking slot combo box shows all parking slots whereas it is supposed to display only unoccupied parking slots. How can I enforce this? (Note that there is a separate form called 'Exiting Car', which is filled when a car is leaving the warehouse).
Fyi, each car is referred to by a unique 17 digit code - so this is the primary key. Also, there are 120 parking slots available in all, with the slot identifiers ranging from A1, A2...A12 to J1, J2..J12 (10 x 12 = 120).

Im kinda new to Access and only been using the "Access 2003 for Dummies" for learning and making small databases. So far I can find out how to do the things I want, but recently got stuck with a combo box feature. What im trying to do is select entries in my combo box so that it will filter the table and show all its contents based on that filter. Im not sure how to link the combo boxes the right way and it seems some VB coding is needed which I dont normally use. If anyone has any idea how to do it, tell me how! Thanks. BTW im using Access 97.

I have three identical Combo Boxes which show the names of the classes in our school. They are just three copies of the same combo box. What I want is this: I choose three different classes from these three boxes. Then I want a button at the bottom which when pressed, should show the records of these three classes separately. Preferably, as three columns.I have made the Combo Boxes, but am stuck at the button to perform these actions.

I have a set of cascading combo boxes. When a value is selected in Cat 1 ID, it narrows down the selections in Cat 2 ID which narrows down the selections in Cat 3 ID.
However, the values don't show up for columns Cat 2 ID or Cat 3 ID until I enter the row. Then I have it set to requery the fields because the underlying data isn't populated. But then when I leave the row, the values go away.
Why doesn't it show the underlying value from the table? Each column is bound to a field in a table - I would assume that the recorded value would show up. Did I miss something easy?
I've attached a picture of exactly what I mean.

I have a form with about 30 controls. I organized it carefully so that all the controls show on a single page. It actually looks really good. However, several of the controls allow multiple values. These appear as a check box showing up beside each item in the list from which these controls take their information. When I run a Filter by Form process, the form flawlessly pulls the data from the table that I'm seeking, and the check boxes are visible, both the ones with checks and without. In a few cases, in order to fit everything onto one page, I have most of the related list hidden, and use scroll bars. This works really well for data entry and for editing individual records.
Where it DOESN'T work like I want it to is in situations where the checked item(s) in the multi-value control don't show up in the box on the form without scrolling. In the table where these multi-value fields actually live, what shows up is just the code for each option, a simple numeral, with commas separating any multiple values. Is there a way to make my form show only the selected codes like in the table? My suspicion is that I'm going to be told no, that the best way to do this is to use a report and query.

I've got a main form with two lists boxes. I want to show the visible columns in my subform (which is a datasheet) in one listbox and show the hidden columns in the other. Also I want to allow the user to hide / show columns using right or left arrow buttons between the list boxes. My subform is bound to a stored procedure using ADO.

The guy who created this cluster of a database no longer works here. There is a section in it that has a user select an option (0-30) then click a button. When that button is clicked it runs a series of queries based on the selection. Each selection chosen takes 90 minutes to update. I am looking to see if there is any way to do the same in less time. Additionally.. I am having to select 1, click the button, wait 90 minutes. select 2, click the button, wait 90 minutes. select 3, click the button, wait 90 minutes.... and so on. Therefore I am also trying to come up with a way to have to have a button that will do selections 1-10 all in one run.
Code:
Private Sub btn_download_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_btn_download_Click
Dim db As Database, qwo As QueryDef, rs As Recordset, x, numrec As Long, rt As Recordset, rwo As Recordset
Dim stDocName As String, i As Long, rwot As Recordset, qwot As QueryDef, qs As QueryDef, xcount As Long, xmsg As Integer
[Code] .....

I want entitybox2 to be based on both areabox2 and devbox2
Parameters are :
Table = Budget Info
areabox2 data = [Budget Info].[Project Area]
devbox2 data = [Budget Info].Development
entitybox2 data = [Budget Info].Entity
This this the code im currently using :
Private Sub areabox2_AfterUpdate()

I'm trying to Identify a particular entry in my table for editing via combo boxes. The same serial number will come in multiple times but a different job number each time it comes in. To identify a record for editing I need the user to identify the serial number in combo1 and then the job # in combo2 (cascaded combo boxes).
The issue I'm running into is that combo1 has dozens of serial number duplicates (combo2 is acting as it should). When I change some settings around I'm able to get combo1 to eliminate duplicates but now combo2 only shows 1 job # when there should be dozens for that serial #. I need all like serial numbers to show their job # in combo2 and I have not had any luck surfing around the net/forums/experimenting.
I'm pretty sure I have to use a Junction Table but I haven't messed with that and I'm not 100% sure that's the best/only way to do it.
