I am attempting to use VBA code to make the label in my report hidden if the text box is blank. I am very new to coding, and am not sure how I would express this in code. I have been looking at a few examples of how to get this done, but it doesn't seem to work. Where to insert the code. Attached is the image of the properties for my label and text box that I want hidden if text field is blank. I al just lost trying to figure this out.
I have a report base on my table. Here a check box. I wanna show two label text hide/show base on when check is true or false. It will be when report will be open. I have try this but nothing is happened.
Code: If AffecteAc= True Then affected.Visible = True general.Visible = False End If
I have a report in which I'm trying to hide some elements from view in case a specific value is Null. Access seems to do this automatically if the report is in print-preview-mode, but not in normal view-report-mode.
I've tried something like this, but it's not really working:
Code: private sub report_load() if nz(txtfield, 0) = 0 then txtfield.visible = false end if end sub
I'm running Access 2003 and my question relates to delivery notes that are produced for drivers as reports. These delivery notes have a blank payment box for the driver to complete if the customer pays upon delivery.
As more and more customers are prepaying by credit cards, I'd like this payment box to be automatically filled with a "PAID" text which will let the driver know the order has already been paid for.
The delivery note is produced from an "Orders" table which has a "Paid" field whose value is automatically set to "Yes" when the order has been paid for.
I was hoping to be able to place a "PAID" label on the report which is only visible when the Paid field of the underlying query is Yes.
As things are at the moment I cannot see any way to put any conditional statement onto this Text/Label. The only options for the "Is Visible" property of the text are Yes or No.
I have a text box in a form, in which users enter updates. I would like that text to become the caption on a label in a printable report. How would I write the VBA to do this?
I have a date field in a form which is not compulsory.
I then pull this date field into a query to create a report.
If the date is not entered then is it possible for "Date not entered" to be written into the report automatically. I have tried playing around with nulls but have had no luck.
Sounds Impossible But i believe there must be a genius out there to solve this
I was wondering if there is a way to stop displaying fields on a form which contain spaces or blank values. I m using a query that takes data from a table named School
I have a table which have 5 fields. lets say: Field1, Field2, Field3, Field4, Field5
My fields from 1 to 3 have data but field4 and field5 do not have a value in it. What i wish to achieve is to show only those fields which have a value in it. Blank or field with spaces must not be displayed. Is It Possible.
I need to suppress/hide a blank row on a subform. The Main form is based on a table, contains Site Header information The Subform is based on another table containing Sample Details records
Site Header table to Sample Details table relation ship is one-to-many, with two key fields SiteID and SiteVisitDate
The Form/SubForm is linked by SiteID, SiteVisitDate
The form adds one record to the Site Header Table. Then adds mutliple records to the Sample Details table for that SiteID. Some fields are populated with a script, while others are populated by user input
An empty/blank/new row always appears on the subform before & after the Sample Details are added. The blank row Before new records are added is not a problem but when it appears after new records are added is a pain
I have run into some problems though. I have one main table where all the details of users are imported, I have created several queries for different types of courses users sign up for. I would like that when I select a query it only shows the users who signed up for certain course.So basically what I would like to do is if a field is empty or null to hide the whole row.
OK, I have been searching around on the fourm for over an hour now...I give up. If this is some where else, I am sorry.
I have a database of maintenance data. There are several columns that are usually filled in, some records have some columns blank. They are formated text because they hold letters and numbers (see pic).
I am using a form to query the table...no problem. The form has text boxes the user filter down the data
The problem comes are with the results of the query. Any record that has a blank column is not retuned. I am using "Like" so that the user can enter in partial codes. I know "like" won't return "null" records.... Help!
Things I have tried: 1)IIF(form field is blank, return table field, else use like command to filter) - returns nothing! 2)Like "*" & [Forms]![Fleetwide_data_Request]![MAL_CD] & "*" returns all records without blanks (i.e. missing data)
I have code that I want to cycle through several fields and check instead of coding for each individual field. I thought this might worked on an earlier project but Im lost. When I try to add my code in the "If MyControls Then", I want it to hide the field on a report if it is blank. It doesnt allow me to do MyControls.Visible.
Code: If Len(Reports!RecallReport!QAW1 & vbnullsting) = 0 Then Reports!RecallReport!QAW1.Visible = False End If
but I want the below code to go through each field With QAW in it and hide it if it is blank.Or having it go through each field individual. There are 10 Fields With QAW THen there are another 10 fiels with ShipDist. I would prefer a simple solution to check all at once.
Code: Dim MyControls As Control For Each MyControls In Me.Controls ' Iterate through each element. If InStr(1, MyControls.Name, "QAW") Then If MyControls Then End If End If Next
I don't even know if I am on the right track or what.
I have a report which contains 3 subreports. Now I require to do the following:
1. Hide the subreport if there is no data. 2. Remove the Blank space created when the data in subreport is null.
I tried to Set Can Grow and Can Shrink to Yes but still the blank space was not removed.
When I reduced the height of the subreports in the design view the blank space was reduced but it was still there.
What can be done so that the complete report auto adjusts itself if any sub-report is null? Something like the whole page auto fits itself in the available space?
The option of reducing the size of sub report in design view to minimum is there but it makes the report very un-handy for future reference.
Hi. This might sound stupid but it is a real issue for us. In our datafile some fields' values were updated to " " . A government entity wants the value to be blank, instead.
How do I change this?:confused:
Likewise, there are some instances where the reverse is true.
I'm working on a db logging replies to a questionnaire. Judging by the responses I am receiving it appears that some sections are not completed at all. I need to be able to include these blank responses when it comes to analysis. My design splits the questionnaire into sections, each section has a data entry form with its own underlying table. Each table has a primary key (autonumber field) which relates to each organisation that has replied. If an organisation has failed to complete a section, I still need to create a new record in that section(table), triggering the autonumber field, hence referring back to the organisation. I know I haven't explained this very well, but if anyone can make sense of what I'm saying and can give me any suggestions on how to make this happen, I would be most grateful.
They are all numerical values that I need to format into percentages however Field3 could contain zero so I can't replace Null with zero. I simply want to return nothing if Field1 is equal to Field2.
I have a form with a subform. The subform is used to report a sales total, for today and for the month. When there are no sales today (a null result in one of the fields) the entire subform goes blank.
How can I make it report a zero in the field instead of blanking the entire subform?
All. Using access 2010. I have a query that returns 92 records. When I put in the criteria for one field to leave out records with “approved” which totals to 9 records, the query only returns 10 records. It is not returning the records that are blank(not null) for that field. I want those records. Why is this happening and how can I get the blanks for this query?
I am trying to show a certain subform based on whether or not a field is blank or null. This database is not owned by me--it's what we use to run queries and reports on the data on a centralized server for the library. It's not even in the same city--so changing the tables is not an option for me.
So, I have a subform (subform1) that is linked to the main form based on 2 fields (BibID and Item_Enum). The trouble is that the second field (Item_Enum) is sometimes blank, so the subform will not display. So I created another subform (subform2), which is a duplicate of the first one, but this time only linked on the first field (BibID). So, if that second field (Item_Enum) is blank, I want subform2 to display and subform1 to be hidden. If the second field (Item_Enum) is not blank, I want subform1 to display, and subform2 to be hidden.
I've tried putting the VBA code on different events for the form, but I can't get it to work consistently.
There are two problems, one of which I think I have fixed--but I would prefer a better solution. The VBA code doesn't run unless the form is newly loaded. I've tried placing the VBA code on different form events, but nothing works. I want the code to activate whenever a new record is displayed. The work around is that the form IS newly loaded every time the user scans a barcode for a new book. That works now, but if I need to change the way the user looks up new records, this might not work anymore.
The second problem is that the VBA code doesn't display subform1 when Item_Enum is blank. It doesn't display subform2 either, but that's the desired result.
Private Sub Form_Load() If Me.ITEM_ENUM = "*" Then Me.subform2.Visible = False Me.subform1.Visible = True Else Me.subform2.Visible = True Me.subform1.Visible = False End If End Sub
I've tried changing the condition to Me.Item_Enum = null, and changing the false/true results accordingly, but that didn't work either. In that case, only subform2 is visible, whether it should be or not.
I am at work, and I have acquired a database that prints labels. They now want the database to be coded so that after certain labels are printed the database will print a blank label. I have the code figured out as a Do While statement in order to print the blank label. The problem I am having is that I am trying to use the Insert Into command to insert the filepath into the table that adds the blank label.
|DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO Rod_tmakLabels ( Print, [Order] ) SELECT Yes AS Expr1, 'Rods Labels' AS Expr2"|
If I run the above command, it just adds the text "Rods Labels" at the end of the table. Is there anyway with the INSERT INTO command that I can insert the new label between the 2nd and 3rd row and add another row? Or is the command designed only to add a new row to the end? I haven't had any luck searching for this yet.
The unbound Parent form has a listbox (SQL Server) , the selection updates the SubForm with a primary key ID. The Subform is a ReadOnly view from an Oracle Linked table. It populates with a Select * From Oracleview where ID = listboxID The code is at the link shown below update: The subform uses textboxes linked to the read-only record.
The main form can populate, no problem. However the SubForm data source is either populated OR is Null.
If it is Null, the subform stays blank. Two Objectives:
1. Set a boolean variable flag in the parent (main form) that subform record exist or that it is null. e.g. Parent obtain recordset count property from Sub form 2. Display the subform with blanks.
I have a query which returns, among other things, a number of boolean fields. In some cases, there will be a genuine True or False value in each of these fields; in others, it can and should be Null (e.g. as a result of a 'failed' LEFT JOIN of some description, where there is no associated record in the joined table which fulfills the criteria)
So something like this :
Code: SELECT [tblTable2].[fldBooleanField].... FROM [tblTable1] LEFT JOIN [tblTable2] ON [tblTable1].[SomeID] = [tblTable2].[SomeID]
However, I will be writing the result of the query to a text file and here's the problem. I want to show a numeric value for a genuine True / False (i.e. -1 and 0 respectively using the standard boolean conversions in Access) and a blank for any Null values.
So I tried this :
Code: SELECT CInt([tblTable2].[fldBooleanField]) AS fldBooleanField.... FROM [tblTable1] LEFT JOIN [tblTable2] ON [tblTable1].[SomeID] = [tblTable2].[SomeID]
However, currently when I look at the exported recordset in Notepad, I am getting 0's for both False and Null values (and -1 for True)
How I can adapt my query to keep Nulls...null? And convert the genuinely present boolean values to integer form?
Only thing I can think of is to use (untested) :
Code: IIf([tblTable2].[fldBooleanField] Is Null, Null, CInt([tblTable2].[fldBooleanField]))
But there's a number of boolean fields in there, all requiring the same treatment.
