Hi,
I have 2 forms. form1 & form 2.
Form1 is full with textboxes etc, so for one task (datainput from user), i want to open a new form (form2).
1. How can I send data (in this case, a registrationID) from form1 to form2?
I would like to do it in a button click event (that opens form2, the button is placed on form1) like this: form2.textbox.value = ID, but it doesnt work. Any suggestions?
I am fairly new to Access (but familiar with VB in Visual Studio 6)
I plan to open form2 from form1 by clicking a button, i guess its therefore no "subform".
Thanks for your help !
On the form: User enters first name, then last name. Upon updating the last name field, I would like another form to pop-up and display all the people with that same first name and last name that the user just entered.
On the pop-up form: All of the matching first names/last names are listed with a button control beside each record that says 'Select'. The user clicks the select button beside the record he/she wants. This pop-up form closes and all of the data from this selected record is now showing on the original form.
So far, I have a query/form that pops up only showing the matching first/last names. I'm having a hard time getting my original form to auto-populate with that record that the user selects on the pop-up.
(Also my main form is actually a sub-sub form - so in my trials I could've been massacring my syntax trying to point to it.)
A few of my users have recently asked about the possibility of having a MS Access application set up that would allow them to enter data and automatically place that data into MS Project files.
Is something like that doable? If it is, are there web sites that explain how to do something like that? Has anyone out there attempted this, and if you have, would you be willing to share your experiences?
I have a database where I keep track of student employees. The database has three forms, a new hire form, a supervisor form and a financial aid form. The student fills out a new hire form that requires additional input from the hiring department and from financial aid. Included on the new hire form is the name of the supervisor. I have a table that contains the supervisor name as well as email address. Once the student has filled out the new hire form, I would like to generate an email that sends a report, identifying the new hire, to the supervisor requesting them to fill in the missing information in the database. I want the email to either (1) be generated automatically once the student has completed the form selecting who to email to form the student input or (2) have the student pick the supervisor from a list to send the email to. I have very limited knowledge of programming. Thanks.
I have two databases, both have mysql backened and access frontend.
In first database, I'd like to access the second database, check if that person has an entry in the second database and then fetch that data into the first database. To make it easier, data come from different tables (though I'd probably access only one entry in each table)
Not sure where to start, the only idea I have is to link tables from both databases into the frontend ad then it's kinda easy (would have to rename the tables).
i have a filter that shows the bookings for the weekend, which i can click on each act and it generates an email for then to confirm. however some acts have more than one booking on that weekend and i want to be able to list the bookings in one email, the email script i use at the moment is below, the acts can be grouped by a field called grouped
Code: Private Sub artist_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) Dim msgTxt As Variant Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application Dim objMailItem As Outlook.MailItem
I am trying to send out request-for-quote sheets to vendors and i need to send the image of the product as well. when i send emails for data collection, the attachment is not included. how can i attach images?
I am currently using SendObj method to send an Outlook email and selected report as an attachment using the current form's data. This is triggered by a button click.
This is working well apart from having to use 'ClickYes' to outwit the Outlook 2012 security system.
However I now need to selectively send an extra pdf file with some of the emails based on a Yes/No field on the form. This is a fixed file on my local C drive.
I think I have to use automation to do that but I can't find a method of specifying the report I currently use in the SendObj method in the .Add.Attachment line.
Do I need to run the report and then save it so that I can specify the path and name in the .Add.attachment line followed by code which will delete the file? or is there a means of combining the code I currently use in SendObj to create the pdf object with automation option?
I have working code for both attachments at present but they send separate emails and I would prefer to combine them if possible.
I have a form "A" with related subform "b". In that subform i built a macro wich opens a form "B" in a new window, to put a new record.And i need to put automaticly in form "B", values selected in record from subform "b".
I have 2 form, form1 and form 2 (picture attached)
In Form 1 (main form) there are "reference" field with key pressed event then call form 2 (list of reference that user can choose)
In form 2 the problem is, when "enter" key pressed (keypress event), selection will move to next record so the data that transferred to form 1 is wrong (next record)
The question is : how to save current record in form 2 before enter and send the data to form 1
I am trying to modify the following code to send an automated e-mail using Microsoft Outlook instead of Lotus Notes. We recently switched e-mail clients and now the older code does not work. I have tried to comment in all areas to indicate where the new Outlook code has been inserted.
Private Sub SendEmail(ByVal Subject As String, ByVal Body As String) 'The bulk of this code for Lotus Notes comes from this website: Dim copy(100) As Variant Dim strSQL As String Dim rsTemp As Recordset Dim Maildb As Object 'The mail database Dim UserName As String 'The current users notes name
I am using Access 2010 and I want to be able to open a blank email addressed to the contact I am viewing in my Access form. I have been successful in creating a button which opens Outlook, but I don't know what code to put in the 'To' field of the EmailDatabaseObject page so that it picks up the email address of the contact I am looking at.
I'm in desperate need of a (simple I guess) code to allow me to send records from my listbox to a new form. Scenario goes as follows:
I use cascading combo boxes to narrow my available choices and finally end up with a listbox presenting the records filtered through cascading process. Now, I want to double-click on a record and load a new form with all this record's fields.
This is the code used to populate the listbox:
Private Sub FilterTypeList() Dim strRS As String ' Filter the list box appropriately based on the combo box selection(s) strRS = "SELECT qryTaxonomy.Type, qryTaxonomy.Article FROM qryTaxonomy"
[Code] ....
What is the code to open a form with the double-clicked record's fields, as described above?
I am trying to create a Multi list to select reports to send by email. I am able to select one report to send but when I change the list box to multi select it doesn't work.
The codes I have been using are;
Private Sub Command2_Click() On Error GoTo ErrorHandler Dim sAddr As String, sSubj As String, sFor As String If IsNull(ReportList) Then Exit Sub
I've created a button on my ACCESS 2010 form that will send a PDF via email. However I only need to send the single record displayed on the form not all records.
The on click command of the button sends the PDF of the report. (I read that this is what should be sent; but still get the same results.)
I don't understand how and where to attach VBA code:
In a form I have a button which creates (in preview) an outlook message with a pdf report. It opens and displays just as I want it to, but if I chose to save that message in outlook and either send or cancel (i.e. allowing user to save to drafts and send later) then MS Access crashes.To ensure this wasn't to do with any compile / corruption within my full application I mirrored the process in a very simple 1 table / 1 form / 1 report db and still the same - access crashes after saving the outlook message and either sending the message or cancelling out the message.
Form code is as follows;Private Sub Command0_Click() On Error Resume Next DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, "Table1", acFormatPDF, "someemaddress", , , , "REQUEST FOR INFORMATION" DoEvents On Error GoTo 0 End Sub
In my main application this process is embedded within a loop to send various filters of the report to different recipients, which works fine if 'save' is not used within Outlook..
I have a project which produces a report of names, addresses, etc. I added a print button to the form to send the report to the printer. The code is as follows:
Private Sub Command32_Click() Docmd.SetWarnings False 'Docmd.OpenReport "rptAddresses", acViewNormal Docmd.RunCommand acCmdPrint Docmd.SetWarnings True End Sub
Both alternatives in the code produce the same result described following.However, the printed report includes only the first 2 colums of about 10 of the 90 plus records. If I send to to a PDF, it works fine. If I do a print view on the screen ir looks fine.
I an trying to create a data entry form (IndividualsEntryFm) to input data for fields such as (First Name),(Birthdate) etc., these to be saved to the (IndividualsTbl)
I also have another table (NamesTbl) which has family names etc. The two tables are linked by a (MainID) field. I want a combo box on the individualsEntryFm so that I can select the family name. Then I wish the empty fields for the IndividualsTbl to be available to enter data.When I press the save button I then want this data saved, together with the MainID from the combo box to the IndividualsTbl.
I have set the IndividualsTbl with a (PersonID) field as an auto number each individual therefore has a unique PersonID but may well share the MainID. I'm trying to link many people to the same address.
i have a main form named(EMP) i have a subform named(SEMP)with EMPID i have an another form Named(SDetail) with EMPID i want to open form Sdetail with filter records for data select in subform (SEMP) ,EMPID field Subform SEMP in as datasheet view. i can open sdetail for selected records only
My aim is to have my forms open to a new record, which I have done, but if my users need to then update or edit data in previous entries, they can click a button that allows this.
My thoughts were to add a button, then put in code so that the necessary properties changed the form from displaying a new record or records entered since opening it, to showing all records in the associated table....
As an example there is a table for purchase orders. When clicking on this from the main menu form, it opens up the purchase order form to create a brand new PO. At times though, we will need to revisit an order to attach a copy of an invoice, or update the cost of whatever was purchased.
My db has multiple linked tables. As time passes and work on a project continues data needs to be added to a separate table that is linked to the first table to be populated.
i.e., Initial design data is entered first, when drilling is complete more data is added to a linked table, when drilling is surveyed yet more data is added to the second table.
What I want to be able to do is to query for a particular set of existing design data, display this on a form and on the same line enable data entry to other fields from other tables which are linked to the existing design data.
