How To Filter On Forms ?
Feb 25, 2005
Hi
Can any kind person show me how to fix my problem - of how to view a filtered form based on a subform value ?
I have built a subsection of my database - attached.
I am a beginner - I cannot write code - but if some one were to fix this for me, I could transport the code or the macro into my real database.
The main form is called 'Deals'. The subform is called 'Sectors'. What I am trying to do here is use the dialogue box to input parameters of Start Date, End date, and Sector - to press the view button to display a filtered set of Deals.
I have managed it for the Dates - but I cannot do it for the Sector, either by a query, a macro, or my attempts to learn SQL.
Perhaps someone could fix this - and post it back.
By the way, the dates are in "mmm yyyy" format, so you just type in "3 2003" etc.
All help appreciated

I have a continuous form based on table "INCOMES" that shows all the payments received, which mediums can be (field "PMNT_MEDIUM"):
- check
- transfer
- taxes
- cash
Table "INCOMES" is filled using another form, but in this particular form I just want to show "check", "transfer" and "cash" (not "taxes") so that I can track all the cash incomes.
Note: taxes are loaded because they appear in my invoices and I need them there to reach the invoice total amount.So my form has a search bar which allows me to search by PMNT_MEDIUM listing all "checks", all "cash" or all "transfer". I can also search by payment number (meaning: check number). To that end I have a "search" button that applies the filter. And I have another button that "cleans" the filtering by "putting a "" in the search-bar and then calling the "on click" of the search button".
What I need is, no matter if I click over the "search" or "clean" button, it NEVER shows me the "taxes".Search button, on click code:
If IsNumeric(Me.busq_chq_med) Then
Me.Filter = "[PMNT_MEDIUM_NUMB] =" & Me.SEARCH_BAR
Else
Me.Filter = "[PMNT_MEDIUM] like'" & Me.SEARCH_BAR & "*'"
Me.Filter = "[PMNT_MEDIUM] like'" & Me.SEARCH_BAR & "*' or [INVOICE] like'" & Me.SEARCH_BAR & "*'"
End If
Me.FilterOn = True
Clean filter button, on click code:
[SEARCH_BAR] = ""
Call [Search button]_click
Me.Filter = "[PMNT_MEDIUM] like'" & Me.SEARCH_BAR & "*'"
Me.FilterOn = True

I have a form that is showing data from 1 table. That table has 12 different fields on it and I want to be able to filter based on selections I make in a combo box in the header of the form. The filter string must be dynamic enough to allow filtering based on 1 criteria selected, or multiple criteria selected. For example:
If I have values in filter fields 3, 5, and 9 I'd want the filter string to be created as follows:
"...WHERE field3 = field3filter.value AND field5 = field5filter.value AND field9 = field9filter.value"
If I have values in only field 7, I'd want th efilter string to be created as follows:
"...WHERE field7 = field7filter.value"
And so on and so on.
I have created some filters before but all of the different VBA syntaxes I'm using seem to come up short.

I am using MS Acess2000 and need to make a report that will be passed around with production work. My primary key is the invoice number of the work order. Currently to open an invoice i have a macro, attached to a query with the following qualifiers; Like [Enter invoice]
This pulls up the current record fine.
for the form and flags the folloing in the property filter sectin of the form
(((([CustomerTableMasterRef].[Invoice]) Like [Enter invoice])))
PART 2
Now I am trying to use microsofts how to filter a report using a forms filter...
This picks up on the Invoice query as shown above but does not just insert the query results...
Is there better code or another way to approach this... Currently i am using:
Name:cmdOpenReport
Caption: Open Report
OnClick: [Event Procedure]
Private Sub CmdOpenReport_Click()
If Me.Filter = "" Then
MsgBox "Open an Invoice First"
Else
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptCustomers", acViewPreview, , Me.Filter
End If
End Sub
Using this code not only does my report not detect the correct fields to import data (no data is filled in) but it requerys the invoice or atleast should, which I could do with out all of that code...
Where should i go from here?

I have placed a filter button on a form as a filter and written the following on-click event procedure:
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdApplyFilterSort
Me.Filter = "ACCOUNT_DO_NOT_EMAIL = 'HS'"
Me.FilterOn = True
When I click the filter button I get a blank message box titled 'Microsoft Access" and an OK button, when closed the filter works perfectly.I have checked this procedure in other forms and it works without showing the blank message box.The only difference with this form is that its control source is a union query.

I have a bit of a problem with a database in Access 2013. On 1 of the forms, I have a number of buttons which open other forms and filter the results using an embedded macro. All has been well until a few days ago when error 2950 pop up box started appearing. After fiddling around for a while it all works OK (without actually changing anything) until next time the database is opened. I checked to make sure the location is "trusted" and all seems OK.

Dropdown Filter Forms
I’m working on building a form that has the ability to create and print a report based on the filter’s you pick.
Example:
Say you have a form with five dropdown boxes
Dropdown 1: VP’s Name
Dropdown 2: Manage <-at this drop down you will only see the Managers who report to the VP that was picked.
Dropdown 3: Supervisor at this drop down you will only see the Supervisors who report to the Manager that was picked.
If someone could direct me to the best place or help me understand how to do what I asked about that would be great.
Thanks
Corey

I've seen code similar to below that clears all filters, but is it possible that instead of clearing all filters, I can clear just a specific one?
Private Sub cbGroup_Click()
Me.cboUnitName = Null
Me.cboGroup = Null
Me.tbl_users_subform.Form.Filter = ""
Me.tbl_users_subform.Form.FilterOn = False
Me.tbl_users_subform.Form.RecordSource = "tbl_users"
Me.tbl_users_subform.Requery
End Sub

Can't figure out the syntax for specifying a null value for a text or combo box when filtering a table via a form. "Is Null" seems to work for query criteria but doesn't work for form controls. If one right-clicks on a form control displaying a null value, one of the choices is "Equals Blank" which if selected works fine but what does one use for the text filter if the record for the control in question does is not displaying a null value?

I am trying to apply a filter to a subform using the text filter Like "*text*" by setting up a dynamic SQL query for the subform, see code. The issue I have is that the SQL doesn't seem to apply to the form because it isn't filtering the form.
Code:
If Not IsNull(Me.ID) Then
pubRecCountPubs = 0
Dim strSQL, strSelectText, strWhereText, strOrderText, strFilterText, strAuthorText As String
[Code]....
I have this working fine in a 2010 database using the DoCmd.ApplyFilter method, but need to set up a similar database using 2003 and DoCmd.ApplyFilter doesn't work with subforms and I can't figure out why this code isn't working.

I have a date field on one of my continous forms. When I try to apply a date between filter, it gives me an error message saying: "Enter a valid date" I choose the boundary dates from that little calendar. The date after and date before filters are working without problem. The date selection filter is working alike. Only the date between filter complains.It had worked before.

I can understand with placing a filter on a form.I have a table that needs updating. I created a form based on the table, but would like to only see the records that need updating, instead of the entire table.
I have no SQL knowlegde. Is there some simple answer? I would like to filter on one field for the word "NO" ie seeing only the records which contain NO in that field.

I've got a form based on a query. Is there a way I can filter the records showing on the form, based on the records in another form's recordset.
I've managed to get the second form to show the same records as the first using
me.recordset = forms!otherform.recordset
but I actually want some different fields in my second form so want to base it on a different query.
Can I do something along the lines of...
Form1 based on Query1 with fields CustID, Field1
Form2 based on Query2 with fields CustID, Field2 but filtered where CustID in Form1.Recordset?
I've probably not explained that very well so please ask if you need more info. :)

currently using 2010 version.
Made some tables with data, then wanted to filter it by form with comboboxes approx 10 of them, so started to write a simple query but it doesn't really work. Then I found this forum and when started to review some threads, noticed that some (most) of you write a query in vba under a button with on_click function.
The question is, what is the correct way of writing a query? Is is a vba code under a button, or is it a code in the actual query?

I'd like the user to be able to search a subform only by month and year. We have lots of reports with different days, but none of them are pertinent to searching.
I don't mind if it looks a little bit messy (such as using the calendar drop down and it discounting the day) but I'd like to have it all in one box, preferably where the user can just select ex. 05/2013 and it would filter the subform, showing only reports from that month.

I can create a dropdown list to filter my form (text) however im struggling to get back to showing all the data prior to my drop down selection.
ive tried refreshing and requerying with no success.
I would either like to get a drop down with the addition of "all records" in it or a refresh button.
the form that this is on is a sub form.
I could reference the drop down to a number if required.
Additionally: When I have selected my choice from the drop down box it blacks out "selects all". Is there away of making the list just select and lose focus so to speak.

In Dec 2013 I created an Access table "Donations" that contains fields regarding charitable donations (Date, Donor, Amount). I use an Access form "Select Donor Form" to select a specific Donor (via combo box) from the table. Then an Access Query "Select Donor Query" uses the Donor selected from the combo box in the form to display all of the donations from that Donor for the year as an Access report.
Since I just created this Access table last month, it only had data from 2013. Now that we are in 2014, in preparation for when I run this report next December, I obviously need to modify "something" to clarify that I want the donations from a specified Donor for a particular year (i.e 2014, 2015, 2016, etc.).
I added a field to the Access table called "Year". I probably can derive the year from the already present "Date" field, but sadly, I don't know how to do that. I want to simply edit the existing combobox in the existing form to return Donors that have a record in the existing table where the Year = 2014. That way, the only changes I will need to make over time is to update which year I need and all of the Donors for that year will populate in the combo box.
Below is the Access macro belonging to the combo box in the form. I converted the macro to Visual Basic. What to add to select the Donor for a particular year. You can see that right now it is only selecting "Donor Name" without regard to which year the donor has a record.
'------------------------------------------------------------
' Combo3_AfterUpdate
'
'------------------------------------------------------------
Private Sub Combo3_AfterUpdate()
On Error GoTo Combo3_AfterUpdate_Err
DoCmd.SearchForRecord , "", acFirst, "[Donor Name] = " & "'" & Screen.ActiveControl & "'"

Now I have coded what I think should work for my listboxes and it does not. When I click it does nothing. No processing of anything.
I have 11 multi-listboxes and want to collect what the user selects from each one and then use it to run my query. The query only uses 4 of the listbox items and then 4 other items that I have in the query. I want to be able to display this in the same form or perhaps a subform. Here is my code:
Code:
Private Sub command8_click()
' Update the record source
If BuildFilter = "" Then
Me.frmQual_Sub.Form.RecordSource = "select * from qualq1 where " & BuildFilter
End If

I wish to filter the records in a listbox by using checkboxes.
The listbox (list1) and the checkboxes are in the same form (form1)
The listbox displays the records from a query (query1) related to a single table (table1).
Each record (assuming a list of videos) has a field called "Typology". The "video typologies" are: Movie, Documentary, Animation. So the table1 has a column called "Typology" which displays one of the three typology in simple text.
When entering a new record (in a specific form) user can choose the typology selecting an option in a combobox. The combobox is a "value list" one and I wrote the typologies in the "row origin" line:
"Movie";"Documentary";"Animation"
So we have a single column in simple text for all the typologies, but limited choiches.
So far everything is working well.
Now I wish to filter the records in the listbox by typology. Each typology should be related to a checkbox, so when I check a checkbox then the listbox returns only the records form a specific typology. Also, I wish to check more then one checkbox in order to display records from multiple typologies rather than one.
I've already made a button which resets the form, displaying once again all the records and eventually unchecking all the checkboxes.
About option buttons: I've managed filtering the listbox results using option buttons in a frame (option group?) and it works fine, but in this way I can choose only one typology at a time (and the typology field in the tabel1 of course is not simple text, but numeric: 1=Movie, 2=Documentary etc).
I thought this could be solved using the click event on each checkbox:
-If the checkbox "Movie" is checked then the listbox shows only the records which have the text "Movie" in the Typology field. Else, show all the records.
-If the checkbox "Documentary" is checked then the listbox shows only the records which have the text "Documentary" in the Typology field.
Etc......

I have a CRM database which also handles billing for my company. I have an Order Form which displays info from the Orders table, and also various subforms from related tables (Order Details, Payments, Collection Notes). The Payments table has a One to One relationship to the Orders table and the two are linked by the Key Field Order ID.
Here is the problem, if I open the Order Form and navigate to any record the correct payment information is displayed. However if I use a Filter on the Order table the Payment information disappears and only a blank payment form displays - making it appear that a payment has not been made. If I remove the filter the payment information is still gone until I close the form and reopen it. Also, this does NOT happen to my other subforms (ie Order Details) - note that the other subforms are for tables with a One to Many relationship.I have tried basing the subform on the actual table Payments and also on a query of the payments table.

I have added a listbox inside my form that needs to filter records based on a field in the databases. For example if I have a record that has the field filled in with a text "reports", then it should only show those record that are on the second listbox. I have duplicated Outlook as an access database where I store all the old emails. The first listbox is called "FolderNames" where it shows all the folders names that are in the column called "FolderNames". The second Listbox is called "Subject" and shows all the subjects from the colun called "Subject".So when I select from the first listbox "Reports", then all the records that have the field filled in with "Reports" should show up in the second listbox.

I have a form that has two different option button frames and 1 text box that I would like my users to be able to use to search/filter for specific records. I chose a form because a table does not work as a user-friendly interface for the data that is being stored. The first option button frame allows the user to filter by Month and is named [FilterDate].The second option button frame allows the user to filter by incomplete and complete records and is named [FilterOption].
The text box is used as a search box and is named [txtsearch].I am able to successfully create macros to apply filters for each of the above options; however, each time one of the options is updated, it removes the previous filter. What I need is creating a macro (preferrably) or vba code (if macro is not possible) so that my users can first pick a month (as this will always be the first thing they do when opening the form), then pick complete or incomplete records within that month if desired. The search box then would only filter records that meet the first two criteria (month and complete/ incomplete).

I have a form bound to a table and I need to display and edit records. I want to narrow down the records by applying two filters; one combobox to select the ClientID and another to select the date. What I have so far is this:
Private Sub CboClientID_AfterUpdate()
Me.Detail.Visible = True
CboDate.RowSource = "Select AppointmentDate " & _
"FROM tblSample " & _
"WHERE ClientID = '" & CboClientID & "' " & _
"ORDER BY AppointmentDate"
End Sub
then in the cboDate afterupdate event I have:
Private Sub CboDate_AfterUpdate()
Me.Filter = "ClientID = '" & Me.CboClientID & "' AND [AppointmentDate] = #" & Me.CboDate & "#"
Me.FilterOn = True
End Sub
This appears to work with some records and not with others and I don't know why?

I have a form which contains a listbox sourced from a query and several text boxes where the user can enter filters for the query. The query has references back to the form for the criteria, i.e. the filter for "Company Name" is handled in the query criteria as
Code:
Like "*" & [Forms]![HooversProspects]![SearchText] & "*"
When i exit this form in my un-compiled version it does not pop up an "Enter Parameter" box, however, when i exit this form from the compiled version it pop ups the "Enter Parameter" box for every filter I have.
How i can fix this? Perhaps change the rowsource on the query to null upon exit?
