Get Value From Unbound Text Field From FORM And Store Value In Bound Field
Nov 5, 2012
I've created a data entry form w/ 7 fields.... [f1], [f2], [f3], [f4], [f5], [f6] are bound to a table. While [f7] is unbound and has Nz function.
Now, the value of [f7] is the summation of [f1] to [f5], i want that what ever value is generated by [f7] will be stored on [f6] in both forms and table...

Hi,
As a part of reducing traffic on file server, I am planning to read less record on the form and hence I tried removing forms record source. (Attached sample db)
I kept all unbound textboxes onto the forms and save new record to the table using codes back of the command button. This is working great with main form. But doesn’t with sub form. I tried removing record source of sub form and keeping unbound text boxes to appear record if it exists.
If you enter 1 in InvNum text box on main form, you will find it brings record. I don’t want to show the record on the sub form unless I call it from main form.
How can I use the same trick of unbound text boxes with sub form too?
Please extend your help.
With kind regards,
Ashfaque

Hi All,
I hope someone can help me.
I have a table here tblTemp with a field client. This table can have from 1 to 100 records at times as it keeps getting cleared for the purpose of this exercise.
I also have a form frmLabel1Data with an unbound text box txtclient.
I was hoping to get the first record of the table into this text box upon opening the form.
I tried creating a query which gave me the following sql;
SELECT First(tblTemp.client) AS FirstOfclient FROM tblTemp;
I also tried placing it in this code with no luck
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Dim SQL
SQL = "SELECT First(tblTemp.client) AS FirstOfclient FROM tblTemp;"
MsgBox SQL
End Sub
Does anyone know why I cannot see the same result as when I open the query it gives me my client name but the code above does not????
Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
I want to show some text from another table based on the values of the bound fields in each record of a continuous form. I thought it would be easy, but I can't get it to work.
I step through the records in the bound recordset and use some of the values to query another table. Then I use the value from the query to populate the unbound text field.
It works fine for each record. But every time the unbound field is updated, all the records in the continuous form are updated.
I'm stuck on this one. It's probably something simple to fix - if you know what to do!
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks!
-Daniel

I have a continuous form with a text field that says "Select". There are two other fields, one of which is Brand. When the Brand Combo box has nothing in it I want the text box to appear (instructing the user to select a Brand) But once the user selects a Brand and goes to the next records, I would like the "Select" in only that record to become not visible. I tried conditional formatting but can't apply that to an unbound control ( or at least it is grayed out when I select the text box) and any other possible solutions I have found changes all of the selects - not only the one in the changed record.

Hi
I've created a listbox and am using the following code
stWhat1 = "": stCriteria1 = ","
For Each vItm1 In Me!LstArchive.ItemsSelected
stWhat1 = stWhat1 & Me![LstArchive].Column(0, vItm1)
stWhat1 = stWhat1 & stCriteria1
Next vItm1
Me!txtCriteria1 = CStr(Left$(stWhat1, Len(stWhat1) - Len(stCriteria1)))
The problem is that my bound column is a text field. I'm really struggling on where to put my quotations so that I get the following with the In function
In('00638','00639').
Any help or pointing in right direction would be very much appreciated

One of my forms has a text box which is bound to a field called teenumber. This form is set up that "on current" has code
If Me.teenumber = 0 Or IsNull(Me.teenumber) Then
Me.teenumber = Nz(DMax("teenumber", "tblteeofftimesshotgun"), 0) + 1
This enables the text box teenumber to be auto filled with sequential numbers growing by 1 for each record. This database is for a golf tournament and this form enables user to set up tee times for shotgun start for the players.
When the user gets to tee number 18 or whatever the last hole on the course is the teenumber field needs to be reset to 1. With the above code I a unable to do this.

Is there a way to create a text default value for a control box that is bound to a number field?
I have a combo box that is bound to an auto number ID but displays text. Bound column = 1, Number of column = 2, Column width = 0; 4cm
I want to use sample text in all my controls (and I know an alternative would be to use the control tip text). In a text box it is easy, I just set the default value to that value and then a before_update event considers the text box empty if the field value is the default value (e.g. Name text box has: Name... as default value). This doesn't work with my combo box since the bound column is a number. I could create a value in the table but then it would appear in the drop box and it is messy.

I have several combo box fields in a bound form where they are selecting values from a list (values stored in a separate table) and then loading a number into the bound table field when selected.
How can I put a text prompt in these fields when loading the form which gets removed when focused and of course is not permitted to attempt a save into the bound numeric fields? I've done quite a bit of searching but can only find materials about doing this on bound text fields. I've also seen solutions using Nz which don't seem to work.

To make it simple, I have a list of contact names and their email. I want to have a form with no control source and have 2 simple drop down boxes for their Name and their Email. What I would like to happen is the user choose a name from the drop down in field 1 and then the field below auto-populate their email in field 2. I understand I can use conditional IF/THEN and list out each email, but the contact list is ever changing, so I want to first drop down to link to the TblContacts, have the user pick the name from the list and then have the 2nd field autopopulate from that same TblContacts with their email respective to the Name entered in field 1. My form has two field [Traveler] and [Email]...The tblContacts two fields are [Name] and [Email]
Code:
DLookup("[Email]", "tblContact", "[Name] = [frmEmail]![Traveler]")

happy friday to all! I may just be missing something simple here but not sure what. I have a form with an option group of radio buttons, an unbound label, and an unbound text field.
If radio button A is selected, the the label and the text field become visible. no problem with this.
when they become visible, I want to be able to enter a string into the unbound text box, and use that data to populate a query from. I know how to do this also.
No the problem: when the textbox becomes visible I can't type into it?
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Kevin

I'm having a bit of a problem - I built quite a complex db that works great and I'm comfortable with code and access. But, I've been working with ASP for a while now and I think it has made me a bit fogetful re: Access.
If someone can point me in the right direction conceptually it would be appreciated. My system is primarily built around scheduling and I have created tables and web forms to interact with my current access database to allow our recources to check and confirm their daily schedules online.
My problem is on the Access side. I need to build a dashboard using a form that queries the table that holds our resources status information and will display whether or not they've logged in and confirmed their schedule. As well, I need controls on this form to allow me to update their individual schedules if it has been changed. Most of this is no problem, the big problem I'm having is the display of information and form interaction... Can I use a continuous form for this?
When I try to use unbound controls such as images - hiding/unhiding images depending on a specific records value (for let's say a traffic light that shows whether a resource has confirmed their schedule) - it seems that I can't control images, checkboxes, etc. for individual records on the continous form with code as all these unbound controls defualt to the value of the first record.

Hello All,I am new to Access and VB and have gained some very very useful tips from this site whilst compiling my new project.I have a question which I have been unable to find anywhere here.I have two tables at the moment. One is the main table from which my form is created. My second table is a list of registrations and the corresponding number of current hours accrued by the registration (eg ABC has 512 hours used)I query the rego table on my main form to give me a listbox so that for each new record, the user can select the rego, and the starting hours are automatically filled in the 'Start hours' field on the form (using an after update event to set the hours after the rego is selected), which is bound to the 'Start Hours' Field on the main table, so that when it is saved, the info saves to my main table.When the user returns, they then enter their Finish hours, and this finish hours is then written to the rego table, so that next time the rego is selected the start hours is the same number as the finish hours from the last time the item was used.Now for the problem. Users can fill out some parts of the form, and take it before the finishing hours are entered for the previous record. Therefore, when they return to enter their finishing hours, the starting hours hasn't updated on the form, and it doesn't change unless they reselect the rego from the list box to trigger the after update event.Is there any way, (I have tried, Me.Refresh, Requery etc) I can get the after update event to fire in the current form automatically, ie without having to reselect the same rego again? Is there a way to just refresh the rego field so that it thinks that it has updated and triggers the after update?I may have now made it clear as mud, but this is my first post so any help would be very much appreciated. I can elaborate on any problems if needs be.Thanks in advance for your help!

I have a form that contains a combo box (cboEmployeeName) that pulls data from a query and populates three text boxes (Work Area, Last Name, First Name), This part works fine. Because the text boxes are being populated by the Combo box, they are not bound to the record source tblTrainingSchedule). I need the info that is in the text boxes to populate the respective fields in the record source.
I tested by adding "=tblTrainingSchedule!WorkArea=[cboEmployeeName].Column(3)" (column 3 is the work area) to the "after update" control but it does not populate the data.

I'm using Access 2007. I've created a table with two fields. "Novice and Recertification" as in combo box.
I put it on the form. Now the idea is when a user clicks Recertification, it shows up on the report. When the user clicks on Novice, it should be empty on report (Reason why I want to keep novice is so that we have a record of it.)
Now the challenge is I added another column, empty field for Novice and Recertification for Recertification. Thing is if I set the bound column, I select on an empty field on form and it will be empty on report. But I want the user to see Novice on the form and it must not show on the report.

So I'm not new to Access but I am to 2010. It has been a bit "challenging". Here's my first question:
1.) I'm trying to search on a field by using a command button. I basically want to click the button and the following message pops up: Enter MRN.
2.) When the MRN is entered, I would like the form to filter on all records that have this MRN.
3.) In old versions of Access, I would create a Macro for this and then call the Macro in the form.
4.) I've tried the FindRecord action in the Macro but it does not work. I actually came across several actions that don't seem to be working properly (getting error messages).
5.) In my head, this should be one of the EASIEST things to do. I've done this before in several different databases. I will admit it has been a few years since I have used Access for this (ie. building forms, macros etc.). I've primarly used it to pull in a data set and then run some queries to get the data I need quickly versus using Excel.

I have a form with a bound combo box. There is an unbound text box for display purposes only that is supposed to reflect the third column of the combo box for the current record.
I set it's default value at [cmbPartyType].[Column](2) .
It works for the first record. but when I scroll through the records, the box keeps the value that was appropriate for the first record. how can I get it to look at that combo box on every form? Even if I am not update records, just looking at them?

I have a form where I would like to validate (restrict) choices in subsequent fields.
Example
Combobox choices are Air, Fire, Water, Earth, Space
In the form I have 4 fields = Material1, Material2, Material3, Material4. (all in same record on my table)
Basically I need the validation to not allow duplicates across the 4 fields.
something like....
[Material1] <> [Material2] or [Material3]or [Material4]
I am not sure of the proper syntax for the validation field in the Form Properties. Or if I am even putting it in the right place.

I have a form with a navigational control which loads in the unbound area a form according to the navigational btn, this form has a list of records in datasheet view, when clicking on a specific records it opens a form with the specific record selected, I would, once double clicked on the record, the form to open within the same unbound window.
To be more precise, from the attachment, when the frmMain is open and the user double clicks on the IATACode the navigation target under the Tab Airport closes the form "frmQueryAirport" and opens "frmAirport", once the user closes the window with the appropriate Exit Btn, the "frmQueryAirport" reopens.
