Help With Text Boxes In A Form
Feb 9, 2006
Hi
I have a form based on a table. I have two fields A and B.
A is a drop down with values from Table T1. Table T2 has values based on these values from T1.
Now I want to display the value from Table T2 based on what the user has selected in field A.
Like the user is trying to add new records in the form. He selects "ABCD" from drop down in field A. Now Field B should display the value "2" where Table T2 contains the row "ABCD 2".
Can someone throw some light on this..
Thanks

I'm trying to build an database for aircraft operators. I've got the basic tables structure and relationships but I'm stuck on building an search form to filter records by user input.I've got following controls on my form (unbound):
1. AircraftType (combo box) from tblAircrafts
2. CompanyName (combo box) from tblListOfAircraftsOperators
3. TeailNumber (text box) from tblAircraftOperators
4. AirportNameSearch (combo box) from tblAirports
5. PassengersNumber (text box) from tblAircraftOperators
6. ManufactureYear (text box) from tblAircraftOperators
7. SourceSearch (combo box) from tblInfoSource
8. CountrySearch (combo box) from tblCountry
9. CategorySearch (combo box) from tblAircraftCategory
10. EamilToOperator (text box) from tblAircraftOperators
11. InteriorPhoto (Bound object frame) from tblAircraftOperators
12. ExteriorPhot (bound object frame) from AircraftOperators
I need to enable users to search for aircrafts based on those criteria. As I mentioned I'm new to Access and I don't have any advanced coding skills. I have a query build to perform the search and this is the code I've managed to write so far:
SELECT AircraftOperators.RegistrationNumber, AircraftOperators.PassengersNumber, AircraftOperators.ManufactureYear, AircraftOperators.EmailToOperator, AircraftOperators.ExteriorPhoto, AircraftOperators.InteriorPhoto, tblListOfAircraftOperators.OpratorName, tblAircrafts.AircraftType
FROM tblAircrafts INNER JOIN (tblAirports INNER JOIN (AircraftOperators INNER JOIN tblListOfAircraftOperators ON AircraftOperators.CompanyName =
[code]....

I wonder if anyone could help me here:
I have my main form that has a row of buttons at the top, some of these buttons have multiple functions so I have some hidden text boxes underneath that appear on the mouse move command, giving the impression of a drop down list for that button.
Just underneath the buttons I have a subform, the problem I have is that the text boxes will not show on top of the subform, they always appear behind it, is there anyway to get them to show on top of the subform ?
I hope this makes sense.
Regards

Hi,
I have a form that displays fields from a table called "supp", e.g "name", "address 1" etc etc.
i want to if possible when i change the text on the form that is already in "name" field or regardless any text box field on the form, i.e "ab" to "cd" to display on the form that that specific record has been changed by putting the word changed with the current date into the table "supp". also if nothing has been changed that do not put changed and the date.
Thanks

I would like to format all text boxes on a form. If there is an entry, I would like the backcolor to be white, else if not, red. Can I do that in the form code level, or would I have to do it for each text box separately?

I have about 25 text boxes that get populated based on a financial transaction; quite often about half of them are empty. i wanted to gray them out if they are emtpy (.enabled = false). I could put a series of IF statements in the vba for each one, but its bulky and time-consuming. I've done for each record in tables and recordsets. Is there a way to do a for each textbox on a form?

I am trying to sum the row in a access form. There are 3 text boxed called TXT1, TXT2, TXT3. I have added an additional text box and typed the following txt;
=([TXT1]+[TXT2]+[TXT3])
Instead of totalling the row it just puts the number together. For example TXT1 contains 1. TXT2 contains 2, and TXT3 contains 3 so the answer should be 6 (1+2+3) but it shows 123. I have tried putting SUM in front but that gives me the total of the whole column not just that row.

I was wondering if there was a way to use check boxes in a form to have certain text print out. It's part of an invoice type form and there are 4 different treatments that could have been part of the appointment and the goal is to have a way to check the treatments for that appointment and only have the checked ones print out..

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 currently have 3 tables within a database with student details of three different classes. I need to create a user form that has a dropdown box which I can select a student from one of these tables with a number of text boxes below which brings up all the students details, then once the student has been selected and the correct details are shown then I need to create a button which allows me to move that student from one table to another.

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,
I have a form that has several text boxes that correspond to a cell in a row. One of the columns contains just numbers 1-300. Now what I need is a combo box that contains the numbers 1-300 and when one of those numbers is selected I need it to import all the information from the same row into the correct text boxes.
For example when the number 3 is selected it will take the row with the number 3 in it, take all of the cells and import them into the right text box.
Thanks a bunch!

I have a form where I type in the time a person starts a job. The format is Medium Time. I also have a box where I type in the End time for that job. Also formatted in Medium Time. I have another box that is for if a break happens during that job to return the value 10. My formula for that box is: =IIf([Start Time]<"9:00 AM" And [End Time]>"9:10 AM",10,0). The problem that I am having is that it only works when the time is in the 9:00 AM to 9:59 AM time frame. I need it to work where if a person starts at 6:00 AM and gets done at 2:30 PM to return the value of 10.

I am working on a database tool for quality team.
I have around 30 text box on a form and trying to insert the value of those 30 text boxes in a table from vba.
Here is my code
Private Sub Submit_Click()
Dim a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z, aa, bb, cc, dd As String
Dim SQL As String
a = Month
b = Week
c = Type_of_Contact
d = Country
[Code] ....
From above code I am not able to get my working done
Can we use a variable in referring a field in insert query?
I am using variable because I am not able to write the whole code in a single line and when i am pressing enter it gives me a error.

there is a way to convert multiple text boxes to combo boxes all at once, rather than right clicking on them one at a time, and selecting Change to.
I have a form with about 50 fields and most of them need to be converted to combo boxes. I'd always done it manually one at a time up to this point, but I'm trying to build up my learning and look for smarter ways to do things.

I have done this before and can't remember how I did it and I can't fogure out how to do it. I have a form with textboxes that are for displaying info to the users. I want to lock them so that users can not click on them or high light the fields. So basically the user can only click on fields I want them to.

I'm trying to write code which writes text into text boxes on a form depending of certain content of other text boxes. The names of the text boxes are all very similar
F.i. R1, R2, R3 ...... R12 if the content of these boxes are empty then the content of the corresponding text boxes VR1, IR1, VR2, IR2, VR3, IR3.......VR12, IR12 should also be empty.
In fact I am trying to write something like this
DO UNTIL i=12
if me.R(i).value = "" then
me.VR(i).value = ""
me.IR(i).value = ""
endif
LOOP
But this isn't working. The solution below works but isn't a very nice one, writing 12 times the same code
if me.R1.value = "" then
me.VR1.value = ""
me.IR1.value = ""
endif
if me.R2.value = "" then
me.VR2.value = ""
me.IR2.value = ""
endif

I am trying to improve a work process using an existing Access DB.We have a form with multiple texts boxes on it. I need to search through these boxes to determine the total number of occurrences of a specific value. This is not tied to a table.
The text boxes I'd be searching through all have related names: "Element0" to "Element40". And I'd most likely be looking for a "/" within the value in the boxes (value could be 12345/01, for example).Would then be using the result in VBA to apply some conditions, so I would prefer if I could do the count in VBA (the count/sum is the part that is hanging me up.)
I've found multiple ways to accomplish this from a table, but nothing for what I have to work with.I am unclear in my description of what I am trying to do, let me know and I will try to provide more information.

I am trying to filter a form by using two unbound text boxes that a user can enter in their criteria and then clicking a command button to filter the form using the criteria entered into the text boxes. My fields are as follows:
Bound Field: MondayD1
Unbound text box: txtMonday
Bound Field: SundayD7
Unbound text box: txtSunday
Command Button: cmdSelect
MondayD1 = txtMonday
SundayD7 = txtSunday
I have looked up several options using vb for the on click event of the command button but I either get an error message or the form shows up blank.

I have a pair of captioned text boxes for taking the criteria for the search result. Currently the text boxes are tied with a date field. I would like to give the user's choice of a number of date fields. After some research, I believe option group control fits for this purpose. Unfortunately, I never try this function before.
