How To Insert Scroll Bar?

Nov 23, 2005

I'm a fairly new user of Access-self taught, working for a small company. I can't figure out how to insert a scroll bar in my form to allow users to scroll down to the bottom of the page. When I switch to design view, a scroll bar is automatically included, but when I switch back to form view, there is none. I've tried inserting a scroll bar from the "More Controls" button list, but it won't scroll my form: the slider just blinks when I try to move it around. Any help would be appreciated.

Forms :: Subform Scroll Bar Scroll To Bottom?

Apr 25, 2013

I have a form and in the form is a subform. When I add a record with the following code, the subform detail scrolls in such a way that you can't see the record you just added...only a single blank new record. Can you set the scroll position so that I can see all the previous records including the one I just added?

Private Sub Add_PROJ_RECORD()
On Error GoTo Err_Add_Click
Me.PROJECT_DATA.Locked = False
Me!PROJECT_DATA.SetFocus
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
Me.PROJECT_DATA.Form.PROJ = PROJ_COMBO
Me.PROJECT_DATA.Form.SPEC = SPEC_COMBO
Exit Sub

Tables :: Use Insert Into Command To Insert Filepath Into Table That Adds Blank Label

Aug 28, 2014

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.

INSERT Query - Insert New Data Only

Jul 2, 2010

Table TBL_NEWDATA is used to append new data to table TBL_PERSON_ALLOCATIONS.

TBL_NEWDATA { Person_ID, Department_ID }
TBL_PERSON_ALLOCATIONS { Person_ID, Department_ID, ... }

I need to devise a query to append data for a particular Department_ID from TBL_NEWDATA to TBL_PERSON_ALLOCATIONS where that data does not already exist there. i.e. for Department_ID 'Research', I would want to append 'Person_ID', 'Department_ID' (in this case: 'Research') to TBL_PERSON_ALLOCATIONS for any tuples not already held.

INSERT INTO TBL_PERSON_ALLOCATIONS (Person_ID, Department_ID)
SELECT Person_ID, Department_ID
FROM TBL_NEWDATA
WHERE TBL_NEWDATA.Department_ID='Form...'

[code]...

This Query takes a single argument from a control (Forms!Main!IN_Department), and this is the Department_ID to be updated.Is there any way to do this using a single query or will I have to use sub queries? I'd hoped not to as to keep the database as concise as possible.

SubForm Scroll Bar

May 3, 2006

I have a subform on my main form that uses a query to display the information. On the query and subform there is a discussion field. I would like to put a scroll bar on this field so the user can scroll through the text since it could possibly be large but the scroll bar function does not work on this field. I have tried setting the scroll bar feature in properties for the sub form field but it will not put it on this field. Any ideas????

Scroll A List Box

Feb 19, 2005

I have a text box and a list box in a form.

When the user types in something in the text-box i want the closest matching record (based on the first column) of the list box to be scrolled to.

For eg.

Text in Text box is Kan

Then the list box should scroll to records starting with Kan.

I am currently achieveing this using Sendkeys as i have rarely used list boxes but would prefer a cleaner method if possible.

Scroll Up Down Buttons

May 13, 2005

The detail section of my (continuous) form may or may not have a scroll bar on the side depending on the number of records. When it is there, it is way off to the side and the user may not notice that there are more records to view. I'd like to add Up/Down buttons to the footer that become visible when the scroll bar is visible, and work like the Up/Down buttons on the scroll bar.

Can anyone suggest how I might code this?

Thanks,

Sup

Scroll Bar Colours

Jun 23, 2005

Is it possible to change the colour of scroll bars in subForms?

Seems odd that you can easily customise all the colours, yet have to settle with a horrible looking grey scroll bar!

Any help or a 'work-a-around' to the problem would be welcomed.

Thanks

Mouse Scroll

May 20, 2006

Hi all,

I have read much about disabling the mouse scroll bar - but my problem is that while I want the use of the scrollbar, it is very jumpy.

Does anyone know how I can control the functionality of the scroll bar?

Cheers

Scroll Bars

Nov 12, 2004

Basically what I want to do is create a form that combines 2 tables. For example, I want to be able to display a name, then display and be able to scroll through all information associated with that name. For instance, if the name had more than one address, how would I create that form with the right relationships and with the scroll bars? Thanx

Updating A Text Box To Scroll

Jan 31, 2006

OK, this one is doing my head in!

I'm using aleb's most handy code from this thread (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=100636) to have a multi select list box that determines recipients of an e-mail from the list.

I thought it would be handy to have it make a list that updates at the same time, showing what e-mail addresses will be sent. Here's the code I used:

Private Sub lstMailTo_Click()
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim strList As String
Dim strElist As String

Me.cmdEmail.Enabled = True
With Me!lstMailTo
If .MultiSelect = 0 Then
Me!txtSelected = .Value
Else
For Each varItem In .ItemsSelected
strList = strList & .Column(0, varItem) & ";"
strElist = strElist & .Column(0, varItem) & vbNewLine Next varItem
If strList = "" Then
Me!txtSelected = strList
Me.cmdEmail.Enabled = False
Me!txtEadd = ""
Else
strList = Left$(strList, Len(strList) - 1)
Me!txtSelected = strList
Me!txtEadd = strElist
End If
End If
End With
End Sub

The code works, but when the text box becomes filled, you cannot see the bottom of the list.
How can I set it to know this and automatically put a scroll bar in, so the addresses can be reviewed before hitting send?
I was interested to see if I could do something similar, but instead have a label display just the last item selected. I tried strElist = .Column(0, varItem) and setting the label caption to strElist, but this only displayed the first item selected. How would I do this?

Many thanks in advance for any assistance!

Listbox HELP: Horizontal Scroll???

Mar 15, 2006

Settings are:

Column Count: 2
Column Widths: 0"; 20"
Bound Column: 1

Width: 9.5417"

Why am I not getting a horizontal scroll bar?

If I add a 3rd column in I get a horizontal scroll, but it scrolls from column to column instead of across the full text of one column.

Combobox Scroll Problem

May 15, 2006

Hi Group,

First post here.

I'm using Access 2002 SP3 and have a number of comboboxes that all have the same problem.

When I scroll to the bottom of the list it only shows part of what I expect to see and when I let go of the scrollbar it pops up to the middle of its travel.

Scroll down again and I see more of the list. I have to scroll down 5 times in order to see the complete list.

Any idea what's happening?

Thanks in advance,

Randy

Disable Mouse Scroll

Oct 9, 2006

On the database I am working on, it would not be convenient for me to install the mouse scrolling that determines if the mouse should scroll down the form, or to the next record.

That is a nice feature, but more than I need.

I only need to disable the mouse scroll bar (so the users do not get confused and then update the wrong record). Is there an easy way on the open of a form to completely disable the mouse scrolling feature?

Thank you,

TJ Bernard.

Scroll Bars In Listboxes

Jan 7, 2005

In the forms that I have made, none of the listboxes ever scroll with the mouse scroll wheel. I have tried to click into the listbox first to ascertain that the focus is in the listbox but nothing works. the only way to scroll is to manually drag the scroll bar tab.
I want to find out how i can make my scrolling work. I guess that there must be a global setting somewhere to switch it on or off... Any insight into this will be highly appreciated!

Disable Scroll Wheel

Jul 14, 2005

I am building a database that I need to have the scroll wheel completely disabled or have it actually scroll the screen when I use it. Because as you already know when in a form it will cycle through the records rather than move down on the page.

Any thoughts?
