List Box Search
Feb 22, 2005
I have a table called Bear Sighting, A form called Search by observer.. A list box, containing all the observer names. I would like to be able to search through the database table 'bear sightings' and display only the sightings by the observer that I have clicked on... I would like to display them 2 different way at the same time... once in a list box and then again see them at the bottom of my form, displayed as records that you would see in the design view of my table... any can help, that would be great... I am not too familiar with the program so I will need specific details if you could thanks...

Hi Everyone
I'm not too sure if this request is a query issue or not so please excuse if this is posted in the wrong section.

I have a list box pulling information from a table. It include fields for last name, first name, primary number, secondary number, and id; of course with different names. I display first and last name, but the rest are hidden. What would be ideal is if I could begin typing someones first or last name in the text box and it would just start either narrowing the list, like in itunes, or would start skipping down the list and would be highlighted. For example. If I was searching the number for walmart, i could go to the text box and type "wal" and it might highlight "wallace, james"; and if I added and "m" to that, it would skip down to "walmart".
I would settle for autofill and click a search command button when I'm done, and it takes me to that entry in the list box. I copied some code off the internet. Don't know if it'll work, but here is what I got.
Private Sub txtSearch_AfterUpdate()
Dim srchstrng As String
srchstrng = Me.txtSearch.Value
SQL = " SELECT Phone.last_name, Phone.first_name FROM Phone_"
WHERE (((Phone.last_name) Like '*" & srchstrng & "*'));"
Form.RecordSource = SQL
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdRefreshPage
End Sub
It says there is a problem with the where clause.

Hello,
I have been searching the forum for this scenario but could not find similar case, which is as follows:
I have a Search Form with many Text and Combo boxes, linked to search criteria in a query. There is also a sub-form showing the search results.
I am trying to replace one of the combo boxes on the form, with a List Box, so I can make multiple selections. For example instead of showing only "buy" transactions via the combo, I want to see both "buy" and "sell" transactions, which I believe could be done via a List Box.
For the combo box I have the following:
In the Field section I have:
[TransactionType]=[Forms]![frmSearchTransHist]![cboTransType] Or [Forms]![frmSearchTransHist]![cboTransType] Is Null
For Criteria I have - "True"
So, my question is what should I put on the query in order to make it work with a list box.
I also want to give credit here to Jon K who has an example of database with combos and texts - very helpful example!
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=103312
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Rgds,
Atol

i have got the bellow code that filters a listbox which is based on a query, from a textbox. The code works fine and it Filters, but if i put in too many characters that do not exsit in the data( so it cant display any results) i get an error saying Run time error 2105 - You cant go to the Specified record? how i can catch this error so it does nothing apart from display a blank listbox with no error?
code:
Private Sub txtSearch_Change()
Me.lstShowSupplier.Requery
DoCmd.Requery
Me.txtSearch.SetFocus
If Not IsNull(Len(Me.txtSearch)) Then
Me.txtSearch.SelStart = Len(Me.txtSearch)
End If
End Sub

When you use a combobox to search values in the form - and someone searches for a value that isn't there - the form just defaults to the first entry. Is there a way of putting a message box that says "This is a new patient" (or something like that). The NotInList event doesn't work - any ideas??

I was able to create a very user-friendly pop-up search form : {URL] .....
I would like to take it a step further... Now, I would like to grab the selected record ID from within one of the list box columns and use it in my SQL statement (to copy the record into a new one). Is there any way to reference a highlighted record value within a list box recordset directly and/or any workarounds?
I know one would be to grab the ID and insert it into the text box, just don't know what the coding references would be for this.

I have used John Big Bootys Dynamic Search Form, however to search on the fields I want I have created a query which has mutiple tables and when I get a duplicate value in the search box, i.e. in Client, there are 2 client "A"s and when I click on one it automatically chooses both.From here I want to create a double click event to open that records in a form, but I can't if it defaults to both records.

Is it possible to make a form where you have two textboxes to search a table and show the search results in a list under the textboxes? Also making the list items clickable?

I'm relatively new to Access 2010. I have an excel spreadsheet that I've converted into an access table for the purposes of creating a user friendly form for the end user to search for relevant criteria to retrieve a list of records that fit the requests. There are two main search functions: unbound keyword search (90+ keywords), and either a series of checkboxes or one list box that lists specific countries/regions matched in a column (columns, as I will get to shortly). The region selection is bound by a selection of 15 countries.
The key is each record can correspond to more than one country. This, one record can have "Belgium, Germany, brazil" and the next record can just have "brazil". Thus if someone selects brazil, the query must retrieve the Belgium Germany brazil record in addition to the record that covers just brazil. I've tried to do this with a concatenated column that list all countries and a text box search, I've tried to do this with individual checkbox columns for each country with checkboxes in the search form...and I can't get it to work. I don't fully understand the criteria to set for checkboxes or list boxes. What would be the best way to build this form, an how?

I am trying to add up a list of dates that match a criteria... a search box result.
I have tried DCount, and now I'm doing it through SQL, and no matter what combinations I try I still get an error - usually 3075 - Syntax error (missing operator)
But I can't find anything missing - I copy the SQL into a query view and it works perfectly... but it won't work on its own. And I've tried using DCount with the query as a query object, and I get the same error.
Code:
Dim ResultCount As Long
Dim DateSearch As Date
Dim MyDate As String
Dim MyDateAdd As Date
Dim varReturnValue As Variant
[Code] .....
I've used the >= And < option as it solves an issue with Date Time. What operator is missing!?

why the code below is not functioning properly. When I type in an acronym in the textbox, it keeps saying there is an error "Run-time error '3345': Unkown or invalid field reference 'ABO'." I do have ABO in the field.
The dysfunctional code:
Code:
Private Sub btnFind_Click()
If (TxtFind & vbNullString) = vbNullString Then Exit Sub
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Set rs = Me.RecordsetClone
rs.FindFirst "[Acronym] = " & TxtFind
[Code] .....
The red highlighted line is where the debugger leads me to. Something with identifying the field? I would like to enable the search procedure to search throughout the entire records rather than just a specific field. How may I write such a line or two?

I have a form that has a subform on it. The main form shows a category of furniture and has custom navigation buttons and a search text box for asset numbers and command button that runs the search. The subform shows the asset numbers associated with that furniture category, sometimes there is only one asset number, in other cases there could be 60. There is a scroll bar to scroll through the asset numbers when there are too many to see in the initial window.
The buttons all work as they should except when I search for an asset number that is part of a category that has too many asset numbers to show in the main window. When this happens the "previous" and "next" navigation buttons do not take you to the previous or next record. All of the other buttons on the form work though - you can go to the first, or the last record, and you can search for a new asset.This is the code for the search:
Code:
Private Sub cmdAssetSearch_Click()
Dim rs As Object
If IsNull(Me.TextAsset) Or Me.TextAsset = "" Then
MsgBox "Please type in an asset number to search for.", vbOKOnly
Me.TextAsset.SetFocus
[code]....
I've also attached a picture of what I mean when I say there are more asset numbers than what the window shows.

I currently have a database with a few search forms. I recently attempted to add a box on one of my search forms to search 3 cells of a record for a key word. What happens is when I go to search, say for P0442, it does not bring up all of the records that contain that keyword in the 3 cells I have outlined. If I step down the code in the OR boxes of the query, it seems to work better but then for some reason my other search criteria , (Tracking number etc) does not work. I will upload the database for reference. I am currently working on the Search(View Only) and that is where you will find the query to work on.

I have a search form that uses a query to show results of a search, but everytime I press search everything comes up even though I have entered search parameters, even though my search requeries every time and the search used to work before I added new records today. Also when I press the query alone on the navigation pane it asks me for the parameters and then it actually works but it won't when I use my form.

1. I created a form with some search-fields which are related to a query. Then I added a Subform in which I put some more Search criteria (So that I can easily hide and unhide those additional searchfields). It sounds strange but is necessary ;-). Now I related those searchfields in the subform to the same query. When I run that query a window pops up that I should put in a value in all those searchfields which are in the subform. But I told Access that it should display all rows, if there is no value in those searchfields. Just as I did it with the Searchcriteria in the Main form. Do I have to do something special, when I have a query which is related to two Forms?
2. I want a searchfield to search in three different columns. Usually the value will just be found in one of those columns. As the Table I search is very long and has many searchfields and multiple of those will relate to more than one column, is there an easy way to do it in VBA? As I did it by using the "or" field when designing a query, but this seems very slow and unstable.

I have a database that uses four forms and each form has it's own table and each form has it's own search button to find a specific record within that table. I would like to use one search button that will look at all four tables and bring up the correct record when the request number is entered. Can I link all the tables to perform this or is code required? Can someone send me in the right direction for how to do this? Give me an example of code if it's required?
Thanks for any help I can get.

So basically, what I have is a bunch of words in one memo field, for example:
dog cat cowboy tree flower
To search it, this is the code I have now.
' Check for LIKE Last Name
If Me.txtLastName > "" Then
varWhere = varWhere & "[LastName] LIKE """ & Me.txtLastName & "*" * " AND "
End If
The only problem is what I search for needs to be "in order", for example, if I search for dog, I'll get the table. But, if I seach for tree, I won't because tree was not place first. Can you please help me? Thanks a lot!
