How can I Load a Form into Memory without showing it?
I have a DB with some Forms. None of them are open. I want to check some properties of each form without actually opening them. How can I do this. Probably by loading it.
Can anybody tell me how to use the LOAD command to load the Form?:o
I've built a function that open a form in Design mode, read records from a table about appointments and create a grid with textboxes representing one appointment each. On the left there are labels with hours and as column headers there are doctors names. Practically each column shows each doctor's daily appointments (it is a medical clinique).
Every time i change the date all controls are deleted and rebuilt.
But after three or four day I pass I get a message of memory limit.
The question is general : Why the memory finish if I close every variable I use during the creation with the instruction:
set frm = nothing
set newTxt = nothing
rst.close
set rst = nothing
Is there any way to create a form in memory which can be deleted subsequently without saving. i have planned to create a MDE. can i create a form through VBA coding in it. All the reader of this message are masters in access except me. Any way to create a form in access MDE file.

I have 1 form lets call it Form1 which has a text box called say textBox1(along with many other form components), the will find record they want and then click a button, which i want to open a new different form (Form2) and set a text box on that form (textBox2) to the value of the textBox in Form1.
Dim tmp As String
tmp = VolunteerID.Value
DoCmd.OpenForm "Comment", acNormal, , , acFormAdd, acWindowNormal
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
'To obtain that varibale was read.
MsgBox (tmp)
'Not sure if this is needed
'VolunteerID2.SetFocus
VolunteerID2.Text = tmp
Cheers in advance
I have some trouble getting a form to open maximized. This form is opening from a switchboard that is centered and not sizable. After clicking on a command button in the switchboard the form I am having trouble with opens in its own window, but I cannot get it to maximize automatically. I have been to every setting I know on the form properties but for some reason nothing seems to be able to get that form to open maximized.:confused:
Heeeeeeeeeeeeelp!!!!!

how to maximize the form when you load it?

How do I load a form from another form? I would prefer to use VB (in fact, its probably the only way you can do it!). I have tried varius commands that would have worked in VB - but dont work in Access, like...
Code:Unload MeLoad Form_tblClientsForm_tblClients.show
The above code does not work AT ALL. It gets an error at the Unload Me line, an error at the Load Form_tblClients line, and the action 'Show' does not even exist under Form_tblClients, so that wont work either!
I am aware of Switchborads, but i want to know how to load a form, and make it pop up in a new window from within another form.
Hello,
I have a OLE Object field in my Access table. It has a blob (long binary data) already in it. It is a very small .bmp image. How do I get this image from the table loaded in a form to it displays the image? I tried setting this value to a image box, bound object field on form load but nothing is working. Any help would be great. Thanks

I only have one table that both forms pull from.
I have 3 forms. The only form a user will ever see is F_Main
F_MAIN (Just loads the 2 forms below within itself)
F_Data_Short (Grid View.. Rows and Columns.. All Records.. Shows some fields)
F_Data_Long (Single Record View.. Showing all fields)
F_MAIN
-> On the left is F_DATA_SHORT
-> On the Right is F_DATA_LONG
How can I set it.. When a record on the left included form is clicked.. it loads that same record on the right included form. No pop ups...
I know I can use the On Click option for the form on the Left... and set code or a macro to the load the data on the right. I tried everything and can't seem to get the data to load on the right when a record is clicked on the left...
I have a form, that when I create a new record it puts a a =Now() time stamp in the Date Field, but I would like for that time to be updated if anything on the record is changed, later on. How do I update that time?

I have created a small form that hold a cube of 9 boxes on it. The idea is that it will act as a small icon that indicates the system is loading. (Purely cosmetic)
I have triggered the boxes to change colour on a loop when the form loads but the problem is that the loop function is being carried out before the form actually loads. How do I get the form to display first and then carry out the loops to change the colour of the shapes?
Thanks all...
I want my Switchboard, and all subsequent forms to be maximized on open...so that the form name doesn't show. Is that possible?
View 5 Replies View RelatedHow do you open an invisible form when the database opens. In the database's startup options I have the database open a form, however, for some reason I can't set it to an invisible state.
My users run macros in their programs (not forms) the sole purpose of the form is to track which users are logged in the database or not. Therefore, when the form opens/closes, a user-table updated.
I don't want the users to be able to see this form, but I have no way to keep it hidden. More importantly because no other forms are being used or opened on load... I can't open the form hidden. Does anyone know anyway around this?
Could someone tell me what Event I need to put this code in to calculate my fields when the form first opens?
I have this code on both the After Update and On Change events which is working fine, but, when I first open the form, those calculated fields are blank and I have to perform a change or update before the calculations will appear each time.
If Not IsNull(Me.fcstloc) Then
Me.prodvolume = DSum("[volume]", "qryMonthlyEngineVolumes", "[product] = '" & Forms!Projects!product & "'" & " And [MonthID] Between " & Forms!Projects.MonthID.Column(0) & " And 12")
ElseIf Not IsNull(Me.prodvolume) Then
Me.prodvolume = DLookup("[2004volume]", "tblProjectDetails", "[projectid] = " & Forms!Projects!projectid & "")
End If
Thanks!

The users maximum screen resolution is 1600 x 900 and I want to have specific forms automatically "maximise" to fit the screen.I have set the Form property "Fit to Screen=Yes" but it does not do what I am expecting and want.I also have "Auto Resize=Yes"
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am having a problem filtering a form on load.What I am trying to say is if the role = Agent then filter on todays completed records and records that have a completed date of Null for the particular agent.
Here is the code:
If Me.txtRole = "Agent" Then
AgentFilter = "(CASEOWNER ='" & Me.txtName & "')"
DateCompletedFilter = "((DATECOMPLETED = #" & Date & "#)OR (DATECOMPLETED Is Null))"
DoCmd.ApplyFilter , AgentFilter & " And " & DateCompletedFilter
Exit Sub
End If
The filter on the agents works and the filter on the completed date of null apeears to work however when a record is completed it diappears on refreshing of the form even though the record has been completed on todays date.I have investigated the code an the issue appears to be with the DATECOMPLETED = #" & Date & "# part of the code.
I'm trying to open a specific set of records when the form is first opened (namely the most recent date that was added). I'm trying something along these lines and am simply unable to get it to work:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim strQry As String
strQry = DMax("TranDte", "Transaction")
DoCmd.OpenForm "FrmSalesInp", acNormal, "", "[Transaction]![TranDte]="
& strQry, , acNormal
End Sub
I know how to filter my form so I get the records from a certain query by clicking Advanced>Filter by Form>Load From Query>Selecting the query I want> Toggle filter. What I want is a button that will do this just by clicking it. By default I have set my form to load a blank record. I also have a button to filter by an exact ID number. What I can't figure out is how to write the expression/macro to acheive this on my "Unprocessed button". The red button is the one I need to apply my query to.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm pretty much a complete novice here so I hope I explain this correctly. I have a form with a list box used to filter data for only "Open" or "Closed". This form works fine, but what I'd like to do is that when the form loads, for it automatically select "Open". The listbox is called lstTaskStatus.
Here is the sql for the form in case I need to put code in here somewhere.
SELECT tblObjective.SourceName, tblObjective.Objective, tblObjective.[Relationship Lead], tblObjective.[Management Lead], tblObjective.[Contract Start Date], tblObjective.[Contract End Date], tblObjective.Status, tblTask.[Task/Deliverable], tblTask.Staff, tblTask.[Start Date], tblTask.[Due Date], tblTask.[Completed Date], tblTask.Notes, DateDiff("m",[tblObjective]![Contract Start Date],[tblObjective]![Contract End Date]) & " Months" AS [Contract Duration], tblTask.[Task Status]
FROM tblObjective LEFT JOIN tblTask ON tblObjective.ObjectiveID = tblTask.ObjectiveID
WHERE (((tblTask.[Task/Deliverable]) Is Not Null) AND ((tblTask.[Task Status])=[Forms]![frmqryTaskList]![lstTaskStatus]))
ORDER BY tblTask.[Due Date];
Hello,
Sorry if this is a really dumb question - I have just started using Access and I couldn't find the answer to this doing a forum search.
I have made a database consisting of a table and a form. All I want to do is get the form to appear automatically when the database is opened. I am using Access 2007.
Many thanks,
Sammy
