I need a form for selecting input files. I already have my VBA code, queries and so forth for what I am going to be doing to my files, but now I need to have a form that will allow me to select different files for processing.
Does anyone have a sample, a snippet of code, or suggestions as to how I can achieve what I'm looking for?
Thanks in advance!
I have a combo box which I pull values from a table which has 2 columns. When I pull down the menu, both columns show but I want the 2nd column to fill out the field. Not the 1st column (which it is doing by default)
How do I fix this? Thanks.
I trying to create a query that looks at 2 field in one table and give me the resolves in a new field.
Example
Field 1 Field 2 New field
Hat Cap Cap
Dress Dress
Pants Slacks Slacks
Gloves Gloves
Socks Socks
Can you help?
Hello,
I need to create a field in an input form that is simply the concatenation of two other text fields. I have tried all sorts of things, but when I look at the data in the table that field.
I have a field called ID that I want to be created like this:
=Format([UniqueID],"00000") & "-" & [Mosque]
This works well in my output fields, but does not work the same way on the input form. It needs to be based on the currently input values from the current record. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance,

Unbound Form
I have a onclick tied to a label (for decoration purposes) that when clicked it launches VBA that essentially updates a form. All that part works except it will not recognize any changed value of the field I was last in?
Just to try to explain best as I can what happens.
- Form gets opened
- I change field (quantity field)
- I click the Label
- It reverts to pre-existing value.
if I click off of the text field first then do the onclick - it recognizes just fine.
I have to write a code for my database,i have folder with files "pending Review" and a table with column "tblExcelLocation". when i run my database all the files from pending review folder goes to "tblExcelLocation" on a click of button.But,if the files already exists it should not insert those files and insert the rest.For this i tried to write a code but i think i m unable to do that .
Code:
Loop through files in folder
folderspec = "O:QA FilesQC ReportingPending Review"
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set f = fs.GetFolder(folderspec)
Set fc = f.files
[code]...
Right.
What I want to do is use a value obtained in the form (obtained from a list-box selection) to select a record in a table, then return one of the fields to a text-box on the form.
All the values coming from the list-box are unique, and the value returned is a simple integer.
Is there any way to do this reasonably simply?
Is there an easy way to change the font-size properties of all objects on a form?
I guess the first part of this question is there any way to all the form objects at once? (without making reference to each one individualy)
I have a couple querys that rely on this statement:Like "*" & [ Project Number ] & "*"Now that makes a box pop up for the person to fill in specific information.
Now, is there a way to make a form that a user can choose a job from a drop down box, which then when click "next" it will execute a query with what was selected from the drop down box?
If anyone could help, id be very greatfull!
Thanks

Hi,
Have been developing an Employee DB which includes sickness records and interview information. Have mangaged to sickness records but now I need to link interviews to these specific records which is where I am having a problem.
All sickness records are shown on a sub form and I attached a button at the end of each record so that I can can add interview information that is linked to the sick record through SickID but just cannot get it to work.
Have attached relevant forms and tables and could really do with some help as am pulling my hair out here.
Cheers
I have a problem I should be able to solve, but I can't think my way around it.
I need to automate a series of tasks to perform the following:
1. The user clicks a button on a menu form and arrive at a select records form.
2. The user makes choices regarding the contents of certain fields (blank, not blank, equals a text string, etc.) and presses OK.
3. On the OK click, the fields are applied to a query, the results of which are exported in an excel spreadsheet.
I've been doing step 2 and 3 by hand in that I alter the selections in the design view of the query and save it. I then run a macro that deletes the data in the current table, runs the append query with the new criteria, and creates an excel spreadsheet of the new data.
However, I now have to make this functionality available to a non-tech person, thus the need to create a GUI menu that can launch a form on which the user can select options and with a single click, launch the macro.
I've tried adapting select forms that I've used with forms and reports using the doCmd.openquery, but they will only work for select or crosstabs, not appends. I considered having the form create the query and then qrite the append query off that, but I can't seem to get that to work.
Can anyone give me some direction on where I can take this?
Thanks.

I have an unbound combo (because it is synchronised with another unbound combo box) box that selects a record, but I can not get it to update the rest of the form to show the required data.
The form looks up project data from 3 seperate tables which are all linked by relationship.
What do I need to do to make this work?
Thx for looking.
I want to select a subset of table called TRP. It should extract me all records
which got the property Valid to date < enddate.
enddate is a date selected by the user in a form .
Somehow it doesn't recognize the enddate in the following :
Code:
Public Sub test()
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunSQL "SELECT TRP.* INTO [TEST] " & _
" FROM TRP " & _
" Where TRP.[Valid to] < enddate"
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
End Sub
I'm pretty new to Access 2007. I have a form and in it there are data entry records including a combobox.
I'd like to select a value from the combobox, say "1" and when I do I would like all the information on that form to be duplicated in a new form.
I'd also like a message to pop up saying that info has been duplicated and that the user must update some of the fields.
I have form 1 that brings up a record, I then open up form 2 with that record details.
On the 2nd form I have a 'status' combo box with values 'OK', 'bad', 'unsubscribe'.
I want to change the value of a checkbox, 'Active', on the 1st form, 'Maildelivery', from true to false if the combo value is changed to 'bad'
Here's the code:
Private Sub cmb_status_AfterUpdate()
If Me.Status <> "OK" Then maildelivery.Active = 0
End Sub
I wish having only one record display in a continuous form, after an "On Click" event. The database in which this question lies is attached.
On opening, the user first interacts with Table 1 (Continuous Form), then by clicking on ID on the details for that particular record appear.
What I would like to do is: When the user clicks on ID, only that record whose ID has been clicked on displays first on the continuous form, and then the PERSONAL form opens. To clarify further, my wish is that the sequence of events is:
User Opens Table 1 Form
User Clicks on ID (for example, let's take 2)
Only Record with ID 2 remains on the Continuous form.
Then details for record 2 display on the Personal Form that opens next.
The problem I currently have is with step number 3 above.
Folks,
can someone help me on this? I am not sure why the select query inside this procedure is not working. Here is the that routine:
Public Sub temp()
Dim strDocName As String
Dim strTableName As String
Dim strTbl As String
Dim aot As Access.AccessObject
Dim strSQL As String
Dim rpt As Report
Set rpt = CreateReport
strTbl = Forms!frmSearchBoilerGuar!cboTypeOfGuar
For Each aot In CurrentData.AllTables
If aot.Name = "strTbl" Then
strTableName = strTbl
End If
Next aot
strSQL = "SELECT tblProjts1.chrProjectName, tblProjts1.chrBlrPropNum, " & _
"strTablename.memGuranItem , strTableName.memLDs FROM tblProjts1 " & _
"FROM tblProjts1 LEFT JOIN strTableName ON" & _
"tblProjts1.intProjectId = strTableName.intProjectId"
rpt.RecordSource = strSQL
strDocName = "rpt"
DoCmd.OpenReport strDocName, acPreview
End Sub
Basically, I am trying to select a table name from the combobox and then use that table name for my query. Then I want to use that query as a recordsource for my report.
Any help is greatly apprecited.

I have a field on frmOutpatient which is called EpisodeID.
I need to populate this field from a selection in a pop-up form.
The pop-up form (frmSelect) is a continuous form with a number of different EpisodeID numbers according to the date the patient was admitted. At the end of each record I want to put a command button (cmdSelect) and when pushed I want this SelectEpisodeID to be transferred to the field on the frmOutpatient.
Any ideas??
I am trying to use a list-control on a form to let the user select multiple values. I have understood that this requires some VBA-code to step through the selections in the list, since the "multivalue-selection" is set to "Extended".
When I try to execute the code I have (found and have tried to adjust), then I get the error message "Object required". The "ListCount"-paramater always only results in a ZERO-value, when i step through the code:
Function cmdOpenQuery_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdOpenQuery_Click
Dim MyDB As DAO.Database
Dim qdef As DAO.QueryDef
Dim i As Integer
Dim strSQL As String
[code]....
I have combo box in a form. I want to enable (to highlight) some controls in the form after selecting any value from my combobox.
For example, There are three values in the combobox. And :
When I select value1, I want an unbound combobox1 to be enable (This combobox is synchronized with a bound combobox2). So when this unbound combo is enabled, its synchronized bound combo should also be enabled.
When I select value 2, it should do the similar action on a different unbound combobx3 (which is synchronized with a combobox4).
The input form of the database have one common table containing data for all parameters for row source. As all data was in one table had one ID. My problem is I am trying to run reports from a form after selecting dates and parameters.
For selecting parameters I created dynamic combo box. For dynamic combo box I needed ID and description of the parameters. So I created separate tables for each parameter with ID and Description column. Which ran me into the problem that when I run report based on main input form which has different row source table and my report form has different row source tables and reports doesn't run when I base my queries on the report form.
I have a form (formA) with a sub form (SubformB) in it. In this subform there is a field (Candidates) in which I want to write a value by using another form (FormC). Sub form and the other form have different source tables (TableB & TableC).
What I want to do is;
While FormA is open, by clicking the field (Candidates) on (SubformB), I want to open (FormC). This form is a Data sheet. Then again by clicking a checkbox on this form, I want to assign the value to the field (Candidates) on SubformB.

View 2 Replies View RelatedTrying to update a field in a record in my form after selecting from a comboox.
This an orders form with a record per row for order items. I select the product from a dropdown list which is populated by a dynamic query from the afterupdate event on another combo. When I do the selection access reports the following error:
Runtime error 3331
to make changes to this field, first save the record
Debug takes me to the line :

I'm lost as to what to do (no such thing as beginners luck!!). I'm not even sure if the error is from the combo box or from the field that it is trying to update (product_id)
