General :: Any Way That Access Could Create A Drop Down Box Within A Drop Down Box?

Jul 24, 2012

Is there anyway that access could create a drop down box within a drop down box? For instance, when a selection is made in a drop down box, it opens another drop down box with choices.And is it possible to link an inserted image from a form to open in MSPaint that when it opens, the image is already there?

Develop GUI To Print Labels

Feb 22, 2013

I have to develop a software that allows users to print data from a GUI. The GUI is a form containing several fields: the user can choose only the fileds he wants to print (I thought to a checkbox to choose the needed fields)

For each field the user can specify: font, x,y coordinate to locate it into the label to be printed

The user can decide also the format (height,width dimensions) of the label

I imagine that the great difficulties is to find the function to create the string to sent to the printer....

Group By Month Or Develop Monthly Average?

Sep 2, 2006

Hello, all.

I posted this about a month ago, but at that time I was running myself ragged and through too many problems at once. I stepped back and made some good progess. I put this in the General forum because it could encompass VBA, queries, and reports

I have a main report (Percentage Report) that has 4 subreports in it. Each subreport is based on a query that's run from three other queries. Its a neatly tangled mess, but it works fine.

The queries all count and calculate percentages for a pass rate of inspections on maintenance. There's an over-all/basic percentage that simply totals everything and divides for a percentage. There's also a "maintenance" percentage that only takes into account inspections done on maintenance (as opposed to various programs and processes.) Those both work fine for any given time period.

The third (and final) percentage deducts 0.5 points for each of a specific list of inspections (safety and other violations.) This works fine so long as you're only looking at a month's worth of data. The problem comes when you want to view any time period larger than that (quarter, semi-annual, annual.)

Basically, you end up subtracting a sum from an average and you end up w/ totally inaccurate numbers. I just can't quite figure out how to effectively either group by month or how to average the deductions based on the months covered.

I just finished completing this whole thing, and I'm pretty much done for tonight. Any help would be great.
----------------------------------------
Key words: sum totals, report grouping, report conditional format, alternate row colors (greenbar), count, calculate, percent

Reports :: Multiple Filters In Access Report Using Vba

Jul 28, 2015

I am trying to link 2 reports so that when a user selects a field in the 1st report it will only return records specific to the filters. I have used the following code via a field in a report to return records in a seperarte report using 1 filter "BudgetPool". What I need to do is add a second filter "ContratorType" to the code to allow the second report to refine the records.

Private Sub BudgetPool_Click()
DoCmd.OpenReport "Budget Expenditure by Pool per Project Type", acViewReport, , "BudgetPool=" & Me.BudgetPool

I have a drop down list in a table with name and commission rate. When I choose the name it displays but I want both the name and the commission rate to display in my table. I want to use a data entry form to enter values in the table and I want the same in the form too (when I choose a name I want the corresponding commission rate to show up).

Access 2002: Selected Data In Drop-down Boxes Blacked Out!

Apr 1, 2008

Hi everyone!

Why is it that everytime I print a report containing Drop-down Boxes, the selected value for that particular record is blacked out?

This is a screenshot of what I'm talking about: http://ww w.hotlinkfiles.com/files/1177902_txqed/AccessReport-Error.JPG
All the blacked-out bits are supposed to be the selected values for each record.

I use Microsoft Access 2002. How can I fix this so that the actual value is legible?

To recreate the problem:
1) My table contains a field (called "Colour") that can only be satisfied by certain values ("Black"; "White"; "Coloured") as defined by a drop-down list.
2) I enter a record about a white scarf. Therefore under "Colour", I select "White" from the drop-down list.
3) I make a report from my table.
4) I print the report.
5) However, when I look at the record of the white scarf, all I see under "Colour" is a box containing the values "Black" and "Coloured", and in between them, the selected value "White" should be, is a black line.

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP YOU CAN OFFER!

How Do I Fill A Drop Down Menu With Values Held In A Column In An Access Databse

Apr 18, 2005

Hi I have an access database called contact.mdb and I have linked to it just fine and used the records held in it to populate a datagrid and can update and delete records.

I don't understand databases that much but I would like to read the values into a drop down menu which are held in the field 'ID' from a table called 'courses'. I have a feeling it is something to do with data sets but am not too hot on these either. Any pointers or code would be gratefully received.

Thanx loads Lervy :d

Forms :: Prevent Duplicates From Multiple Drop Downs In Access 2013

Jul 28, 2015

I'm in Access 2013 and I built a form with multiple drop downs. Here is what I have in the same order of which the user must choose from......

Document "Field Observation", "Monthly Inspection", "Safety Roster" (The user must first choose the document from this drop down he is recording)

Supervisor "First & Last Name" (The user then chooses the first & last name of the specific Supervisor name he is recording the document for from this drop down)

Manager - This field automatically populates based on Supervisor.
AOR - This field automatically populates based on Supervisor.
Org Unit - This field automatically populates based on Supervisor.

Month "January", "February", etc. (The user then chooses the Month of which the document will need to be applied to)

I would like the form to trigger an error with "This document is already recorded for this month" when the user chooses "Monthly Inspection" OR "Safety Roster" for a specific "Supervisor" for a specific "Month" that is already recorded in "TBL_DataTracker". The TBL_DataTracker is where all of my records are stored.

Access 2010 - Main Menu Needs Drop Down Box Referencing A Table For SEARCH

May 6, 2014

I have a main menu "MainMenuF" in my database and I would like the database to be able to be searched by any of the column headings. For example I have a table titled "NewLabReportT" this table has many column headings like "Submitted By" "Reviewed By" "Title" "Abstract" etc...

I would like my users to be able to click a radio button with the same column headers on this main menu and have a box that pops up to say "Enter search parameter" and have that parameter be searched in the table "NewLabReportT" and generate a FORM not a REPORT of all of the listings in the database that have that keyword associated to that certain category searched. That way they can "CLICK" the exact field they are looking for and have it open right up to that form.

Trouble With Filters

Jul 6, 2006

I have been using the forums for the past month and a half, and they have been extremely beneficial to me. I am working on a database that cross references my companies Steel standards to American standards. I am trying to make it searchable in a couple of different ways. I have borrowed code found on this site to make two different search engines. One works very well but the other I am getting hung up when I try to switch from the previous code to mine. below is an example of my code. It is taken from code placed on here previous called "SampleSearch"

Private Sub cmdSearch_Click()
On Error Resume Next

Dim sSql As String
Dim sCriteria As String
sCriteria = "WHERE 1=1 "

'tblSubject qrySearchCriteriaSub
If Me![Spec] <> "" Then
sCriteria = sCriteria & " AND qrySearchCriteriaSub.Spec = """ & [Spec] & """"
End If

If Me![SteelType] <> "" Then
sCriteria = sCriteria & " AND qrySearchCriteriaSub.SteelType like """ & [SteelType] & "*"""
End If

If Me![Group11] <> "" Then
sCriteria = sCriteria & " AND qrySearchCriteriaSub.Group11 like """ & [Group11] & "*"""
End If

If Me![Group143] <> "" Then
sCriteria = sCriteria & " AND qrySearchCriteriaSub.Group143 like """ & [Group143] & "*"""
End If

If Me![Substitute1, Substitute2, Substitute3, Substitute4, Substitute5, Substitute6, Substitute7, Substitute8, Substitute9] <> "" Then
sCriteria = sCriteria & " AND qrySearchCriteriaSub.Substitute1 = """ & [Substitute1] & """"
End If

sSql = "SELECT DISTINCT [Spec], [SteelType],[Group11],[Group143]from qrySearchCriteriaSub " & sCriteria
Forms![frmSearchCriteriaMain]![frmSearchCriteriaSub].Form.RecordSource = sSql
Forms![frmSearchCriteriaMain]![frmSearchCriteriaSub].Form.Requery
'[Spec], [SteelType],[Group11],[Group143]

'frmSearchCriteriaSub.Requery
End Sub

I apologize also because I do not know how to post this in a scrollable window. If someone could help me with that too.

The problem with the code is that I am using a form to filter a query, this will then display the table of the steels that meet the requirements. However, I have altered all of the fields to my names and the combo boxes have my information, but they do not seem to place any parameters on the query. I attached the original DB that I got this code from any help would be appreciated.

Query Filters

Dec 8, 2005

If you view Query properties in design mode you will see a "Filter" property. When I put a WHERE statement in this section and click the "Apply Filter" button it works exactly as I anticipated, filtering out the records I want.

Does anyone know the syntax to change this property in VBA? Specifically, I want to add a command button to my reports switchboard that will apply a filter to a query.

Thanks in advance!

Charts With Filters From A Form

Nov 13, 2007

thought this might have been easy, but no....

i want to have a form with a [DateFrom] and [DateTo] text box

you click a button, it goes to a chart and the chart is filtered between those dates (the chart has week along the x axis)

problem is, the recordsource of a chart in a report is a crosstab query and you can't put form filters into a cross tab query

have tried to ram the parameters in before opening it with


CurrentDb.QueryDefs("qry_Reporting_Charts").Parameters("DateFrom").Value = [txtFrom]
CurrentDb.QueryDefs("qry_Reporting_Charts").Parameters("DateFrom").Value = [txtTo]
DoCmd.OpenReport [cmbReports].Value, acViewPreview


but it looks like the parameters are read only or something :confused:

any ideas anyone?

thanx in advance

Will that work ?
