I have a form that has a check box. If the box is checked then I would like the next field to be available for data entry, however, if the box is unchecked, then I wish for the next field to be grayed out and not available for data. I suspect that it is a simple bit of VBA, but I am not fluent in VBA and need help everytime, I find something new. Thanks for all your help.

I have a query that simply pulls back each tenant from a tenant table. Each row has a bit field that I use for check box's. This check box is true or false depending on the balance they owe. I currently use it to print off late reports and people that have this field set to true have a check box that auto populates on my datasheet.
I copied the query but I want to change it a little. I want to be able to show all tenants, but I want the bit field to show on my datasheet defaulted to checked for everyone (even if the table shows false) so that I can print all tenants without having to check the fields that are false in my table.
I tried to create an expression instead of using the bit field, but I no longer have the option to make that column into a "Check Box" under Lookup-Display Control.
I'm fairly new to using Access for any serious purposes. I'm trying to replicate some database functionality I setup in Salesforce and just trying to clear few core concepts in Access.
I'm messing around in the Contact Management template and I'm wondering how I can make it so when so when a yes/no checkbox field (called "Active") is ticked a date/time field (called "Last Date") is automatically set to today's date + 60 days.
In Salesforce I would create a Workflow Action triggered by an if Active = true statement, with a Field Update something like TODAY() + 60.
I can tell I need to create an After Insert/After Update Data Macro but can't quite figure out what to put in.
I have a data field (status) that is either Graduated, Terminated, or Current. I also have a report that has a check box representing each (such as a check box for graduated and another for Terminated etc).
I am trying to get the report to read the status and check the appropriate box in the report.
I have tried this in the control source of the checkbox
=IIf([status]="terminated";True;False)
but this does not work
I have also tried this on the OnOpen
If [status] = "terminated" then
termcheck = true
else
termcheck = false
end if
end sub
But this does not work either - what am I doing wrong :confused:
I have created a user form that contains check boxes for various fields, and on this form, when the box is checked, I get a prompt that the field cannot be updated. I have several other forms that use these same yes/no fields, and I am not having the same problem on these forms. I checked the property sheet row source for the form and I don't see anything wrong with the select statement (that I know of).
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I was wondering how to delete records that have been checked (through a checkbox) in a form...
Also, I want to add a record after the record that has been checked. I only want this ability to add records available if only one record is checked. Otherwise, if more than one record is checked, the "Add Record" button would be disabled.
Any help would be much appreciated.
TIA.
MS ACCESS 2010,i need to create macro, on insert. which will send mail if is selscted specificed value in combo multivalued list.but, i cant access to that field to test it.
i have tried:

([USERS].[TYPE].[Value])1 = 1
[USERS].[TYPE].Value(1) = "admin"
[USERS].[TYPE].[Value]1
[USERS].[TYPE].Column(1) = 1

[USERS].[TYPE].[admin]= true
..........

and many variations on that theme, but i cant get to that value to test it?
I have a few bit fields that, when checked, specific text need to be displayed in a field separated by commas.
Example:
Child 1 = checked
Child 2 = not checked
Child 3 = checked
Child 4 = not checked
Output:
Child 1, Child 3
I did find this sample expression that I am using in another area and it is working perfect and I understand it works based off of string length.
Mid(IIf(Len(Expr1), ", " & Expr1, "") & IIf(Len(Expr2), ", " & Expr2, "") & IIf(Len(Expr3), ", " & Expr3, ""),Len(", ") + 1)
What is the best way to accomplish this?
i've created a dap that connects to a sql server database. It was working at one point but I've been moving the data around from server to server and finally ran into problems using the dap. The dap is used to hold information about different agents that my company writes business for.
For reasons unknown, the dap can view the records in the database, but cannot modify the records or create new records. The new & delete buttons in the navbar are gray. All the textboxes have readonly set to false.
I can use query analyzer to insert and delete records using the same user//pass as the dap. Anyone know why I can't modify this database?
I've recently tried exporting the database to an access file, deleting the sql database, recreate the sql db, and import from the access file.

Hi,
I'm running into a problem where parts of a Report are printing with a gray background. Not all of the report does this, just certain sections. Background colors aren't set to anything.
I did find this thread:
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=16054&highlight=background+print+color
problem is.. the print IS from a report-- and I don't want to see a color on screen, I want it to NOT print gray.
any suggestions where to start?
Thanks
I have a form that some fields have gray font instead of black. All of the properties seem to be the same as the other fields. The issue has to do with the 'Manage Sales Order' Form in the 'Products' Database.
Customer ID
Payment Type
I have a report that generates an in-house physical invoice for an event. On this report is a small section for a staff member to make hand written notes regarding when we call a week before the event as a final confirmation.
I want to have an empty check box in this section for the person to put a hand-written check. I tried creating an unbound check box in the report but it defaults to the gray fill of a null valued check box when printed.I tried setting it's default value in the report to 0 but for some reason I can't find a Default Value field among it's properties in the Property side bar. I did some research and thought that setting the Triple State value to No would solve this issue but it didn't.
How I can get rid of the gray fill when the report is printed? The field is completely unbound--this check box is purely for hand written notes, it has nothing to do with the database itself.
A2010 - on an existing form I have a few controls that I want to hightlight. I thought I would create a rectangle covering only the desired controls and then make the back colour a light grey. But if I do then I cannot see the controls. If I change the back style to transparent then the colour reverts to nothing and I'm back to square one.
It feels like I want to bring the existing controls to the font - but how?If I create new controls on an existing grey rectangle then it works fine.
how can i disable a textfield or two in a form when the textbox is unchecked also how do i add a default value for it while the textbox itself is disabled, can i get away with it by adding a default value on the textbox?

Hello Folks.
I can't seem to figure this one out in a continous form. I have checkboxes where I can check them. If I check any of them, I would like to disable another check box. All this works, but what it does is it disables/enables the check box in ALL the rows, instead of just the current row.
I have attached a sample of my setup. Any help/insight would be appreciated.

I've searched the forum for my problem and the closest i got was this and it doesn't help that much
If this is the code you can put on click for a checkbox to hide a textbox.
If me.YourBoosterCheckBoxName = -1 then 'need the shot so hide the other textboxes
me.TextBox1.visible = false
me.TextBox2.visible = false
'etc....
else
end if
How do you make a code for a checkbox to SHOW a textbox?
Dear All:
I posted this question before but I did not include the right information. (Many thanks, Mwalts)
I have created a form with checkboxes. I wish to export data to excel on only the people that are checked.
To export is not the issue. I have created a query to list only the people that are checked. The control souce of the checkbox is called graduated. When I go into the datasheet view, the people who are checked are represented with a -1.
In regards to the design view of the query, what text or value do I place in the critera field to list only the people that are checked?
Any help is greatly apprciated.

I'm trying to write some simple code to see whether two check boxes (named cbM001 and cbM011) have been checked and if so, then send out an error message. So far I have tried:
If cbM001 Is False And cbM011 Is True Then
MsgBox "M011 cannot be selected unless M001has also been chosen."
