How To Add A Command Button To Update Current Record Found
Dec 14, 2012
I am on Access 2007, and know very basic stuffs to create tables, queries, and form search. I have just successfully completed a search form filtered with a combobox. Also I have a built-in subform within the main form to display other results as well. The display results are based on one complex query (relational query). Now I need to add a command button that would take me to another form to update the current record found.Quick on the design:
- When I search a subject in a main form(subject lists in the combobox), it would populate results below in the main form and also subform would populate other results as well.
1. Add a command button so can take me to new form, but would need to have the current record populated.
2. Once updated, then how do I save it?

I want to show/hide a button on my form.The button is for entering a new record in the table of the database.Now when i Load the form, i want to check if there are already records in the table for a specific lanID. When there are no records, the butten has to be displayed. When there are already records for that lanID the button has to be hidden.
I have found some code to tackle that, but When i use the rs.MoveLast it hides the button when there are records, but when there are no records it gives an error that there are no records found. I almost forgot to say that i use Access 2010..Here is the code that i use:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim SQL As String
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim landmeterID As String
landmeterID = [Forms]![MainForm]![LanIDTxt]
SQL = "select * from dbo_Lan_Opleiding where Id_landmeter ='" & landmeterID & "'"
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(SQL)
[code]....

hi guys i have a main form with a subform. i have created an add command button to add rows in the subform. (it could only add when the record count is less than 3). here is my code
If Me.SubFormName.Form.RecordsetClone.RecordCount >= 3 then
Msgbox " You can only add three"
cancel=true ' cancel event
me.SubFormName.Form.FieldName.SetFocus ' Set the focus to the field

I am setting up a "to_do" list in access. One of the field is the date the task was last completed. I want a button to update that date to the current date for the record that i am viewing on the form. Below is the code that I am using. When I click on my button, it updates the first record in my to-do table but not the current record displayed in my form.
Private Sub Cmd_Update_Click()

Is it possible to use a command button (update) to update matching records in a form (Test)? I have a file (april.xlsx) in which the first column Cytogenetics ID (14-xxxx) is a unique identifier that matches a record in the database. The next column Result (NL-F, NL-M, F-VUS, M-VUS, A-M, A-F) and the date column next to it are what need to be updated in that record. In the database there is a field called Result that needs to be updated with
the text from column 2:
NL-F and NL-M = Normal
VUS-F and VUS-M = Variant of Unknown Sig.
A-M and A-F = Abnormal
There is also a Final TAT Date field in the database that needs to be updated with column 3 in the spreadsheet (Final TAT Date).So basically when there is a match with column 1 in april.txt to a record in the database, the Result field in the database is updated with column 2 of april.txt and the Final TAT Date field in the database is updated with column 3 of april.txt.
Cytogenetics ID Result Final TAT Date
14-0390 Normal 4/11/2014
14-0396 Variant of Unknown Sig 4/18/2014

I need a way to dynamically store a particular value in "field_2" of the CURRENT record depending on whether or not the value of "field_1" of the CURRENT record is identical to the value of "field_1" of the PREVIOUS record within the same table. The table is sorted on "field_1".
So, if the value of "field_1" in the CURRENT record is "ABC" and the value of "field_1" in the PREVIOUS record is also "ABC", then store a value of "PPP" in "field_2" of the current record. IF on the other hand, the value of "field_1" in the CURRENT record is "ABC" and the value of "field_1" in the PREVIOUS record is "XYZ", then store a value of "WWW" in "field_2" of the current record.
I have a report that will use these results to count only the number of records that have a "WWW" in "field_2".
Is this doable, maybe in a query somehow?
I should add that whatever the solution, it needs to be compatible with Access 2000.

Hi all,
In access database project where my tables are linked from MSSQL server, how can I add record from the FORM itself using command button. Bcz it is not like mdb files in access that you can just drag a command button onto the form and take an action like add, delete, print or find rec. I just came to know it from immediate window using following SQL line;
Docmd.RunSql "Insert........
This is ok but how it could be done thru a command button on FORM.
Thanks in advance.
With kind regards,
Ashfaque

I know you can create a find record command button really simply, which when clicked will display the find and replace window.
What i want to do is create a command button that will search a specific field that i specify in a report for the criteria i enter.
i.e i have a customer information form, which contains
AccountNo
CompanyName
Address
Postcode
Tel etc
what i want is a button that when clicked brings up an input field that allows the user to type the name of the company into this field, then when either the enter key is pressed or another button on this pop up window the matching record will be displayed or a error window stating that there are no matching records. Can anyone help me with this.

Hi,
I have a form that contains 2 subforms:
Purchase Order (Supplier, Order Date, Tel etc)
Purchase Order Details (Item Description, Quantity, Price etc)
This way I can have several items in 1 purchase order.
I now need to create a 'New Purchase Order' button. I've tried doing this but it only creates a new record for the form where the button is placed i.e. if the button is in the 'Purchase Order' form a new record is created for Purchase Order but NOT purchase order details.
Is there a way I can get the button to add a new record to 2 forms at the same time?
Thanks

Hi all,
I have a database for customer enquiries, and there is one record per product that the customer shows interest in. I want to have a button on the enquiry details form that creates a new enquiry but automatically fills in the contact details from the previous record.
Please also note that I do not wish to "normalize" this so that there is a seperate table for contacts and another for enquiries; it's much easier from our point of view to have the whole enquiry in one record, especially as this is a stand-in database before a fully integrated CRM is implemented. In any case most of the other data (e.g. product, category etc) is already stored in separate tables.
What sort of method do I need to use to create a Command Button that:
-Creates a new record
-Copies and Pastes data from selected fields into the new record?
I tried using the command button wizard for sample code but I got paste errors which were pasted into a new table, and I don't really understand the process of how this works as the Commands are numbers from a list (apparently in the macro window), which I can't find.
I'm using Access 2003 but the database file is in A2000 format. The code is below.
Thank you!
Private Sub ContactAddEnq_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_ContactAddEnq_Click
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, 8, , acMenuVer70
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, 2, , acMenuVer70
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, 5, , acMenuVer70 'Paste Append
Exit_ContactAddEnq_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_ContactAddEnq_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_ContactAddEnq_Click
End Sub

I have set up a work order database. On the Work Order Submission form I have
a command button that adds the record to the table. I also have a button to
email the Submission Report. When the user fills out the form and clicks the
Add button the record is added to the table. The user then has to scroll to
have the record reappear in the form and then click the Email command button.
This works fine but I want to make this a one click operation.
I have a filter on the report that will be emailed to limit the report to just the current
record. The filter is:
[ID] = Forms![WO Submission]![ID]
where ID is the Primary Key for that record. If the record has not yet been
added to the table and thus has no primary key, the report to be emailed
will contain no record info.
I'm thinking I may have to use a temporary table but I'm clueless about how
to make that work.
Any suggestions?

Hi All,
I have a form called "frmProducts" which is linking to table "tblproducts".
Easy Enough...
The form shows all the Products information (fields).
I have a "More Info" command button (cmdMoreInfo) next to every record in the form.
When the command button is clicked I would like it to open up another form "frmMoreInfo".
But On frmMoreInfo I would only like it to show that specific product.
I have tried the following code on the on click event on the command button but it was always asking me for the value of Form![frmMoreInfo]![txtInternalCode]
Code:Private Sub Command12_Click()On Error GoTo Err_Command12_ClickDim stDocName As StringDim stLinkCriteria As StringstDocName = "frmMoreInfo" stLinkCriteria = "Form![frmMoreInfo]![txtInternalCode]=" & Me![txtInternalCode]DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteriaExit_Command12_Click:Exit SubErr_Command12_Click:MsgBox Err.DescriptionResume Exit_Command12_Click End Sub
Any Ideas?

with no result, however it does kinda work in the combo's after update event, just not until I select another value.

I have a form named CORRES_TYP with 3 text boxes and a list box. I also have a separate table with 3 field from where the information I put in the form was saved.
In my form whenever I put information on the textbox at hit add record button, these information are saved in my table and will reflect on the listbox on my form below the textboxes. Also if I select a record in the Listbox the record I selected will apprear on the corresponding textbox in the same form.
My problem is that I have been trying to create a command button that will save and change the existing record everytime I select an item in the list box and modify the information through the textbox. Here are some infromation about my table and form:
Table name = CORRES_TYP
Field 1 = CODE (Primary key, No Duplicates)
Field 2 = DESCRIPTION
Field 3 = FOLDER
Form name = CORRES_TYP
Textbox 1 = CODE
Textbox 2 = DESCRIPTION
Textbox 3 = FOLDER
Listbox name = LIST14

I have created Command buttons on forms with VBA code. Records GoTo previous and GoTo Next Record so both of working is good. But Next Record command is force to a new record. If suppose when we clicking on last record. It is go to new record without any message. So No need to force a new record with Next Record Command. Only just move to next record if there is no records show a message. Below mentioned both VBA codes so there is any changes on GoTo Next Record Code?
VBA Code:
Go To Previous Record : DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acPrevious
Go To Next Record : DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNext

I am designing a database to manage hospital patient data. I will have to enter info at various points, e.g. when a patient is referred, admitted, discharged...
So for example, I have a main form with the patient's name and two subforms, one with the referral details (e.g. date, name of referrer...), and one with the admission details (e.g. date, diagnosis). They are linked through Parent-child links to the main form by PatientID. So, when I enter a new PatientID in the main form, the ID in the subforms is automatically added/synchronized.
However, I would like it not to be...since not all patients that are referred are then admitted. Therefore I would like to have a command button in the main Form that allows me to control when a new patient record is added to the admission subform. In other words, I would like an "Add a new Record in the admissions subform" button, which then creates a new record, with matching PatientID in the admissions subform (and in the related table). Is this possible???
I have tried using the command button wizard but it either requires a record to be already present in the subform, or it takes me to the first record of the form, and not the matching PatientID one.

I am a relative Newbie so if my question sounds stupid, bear with me:
I have a form with a subform linked to a query.
On the subform i have a checkbox[Recieved] and when checked adds a date to
another field [Year] on the subform which in turn updates the record in a table[Orders].
I then click a command button on the form which runs a crosstab query based on the
updated fields in the table [Orders].
This works well except for the last record ammended which does not update the [Year]
field in the table [Orders]. When the command button is clicked it is still the current
record in the subform.
clicking another record in the subform solves this or closing the form and reopening it before running the crosstab query.
Is there an easier way to automate the update? So that the user does not have to select another record first.

I have a form(F_Roll) that runs from a query(Q_roll) which asks the user to input the date. New records are made from this form, and it also allows the user to look at the records from past dates. On this form, my next button creates a new record for that date and fills a field called "RollNumber" with a running counter based on the CurrentRecord. If no roll is present for that date, "RollNumber"=1. If the "Next" button is pushed and "RollNumber"=1, then on the next record, "RollNumber" is filled with 2. If 2 then 3,etc. "RollNumber" is my primary key for the table(T_Roll), and actually, I have the date in front of the counter. The data in "RollNumber" is like "071206-1", "071206-2", "071206-3", "071206-4", etc.
What I want to do is have a button on my main form(F_Roll) that will open a new modal, pop-up form on top of my main form that allows the user to enter data for the next record(roll) while still on the current record(roll).
I can get it to work if the next record(roll) has already been made. But if I make a new record through the pop-up form and then try to goto the next record I my main form, I get a primary key error about making duplicate primary keys when trying to save the record.
The problem is(I think)- The query for the main form has already ran, so it doesn't recognize the new record made from the pop-up form. When the next button is pushed, it is creating a duplicate record(roll) in the primary key.
Does anyone have any ideas how to work around this?
I am using Access 2003
