Hi Everyone again, (i'll try my best to explain) (Sorry if it doesn't make sense)
I have a main form - everything on the formn is linked to the User ID
I have created a List box1 which contains many selection. (Lets say a menu for food)
Once one item has been selected i have a button which adds the selected choice to another List Box2
this can be repeated to show Every item the client has selected.
I have linked both List Boxes to the User ID
This all works fine, it reconises the user IDs on every record but i would like the List Box2 to be clear
instead of holding all the previous records data when a new record is created.
on my form i have two unbound combo boxes and an unbound listbox. when i delete or go to a new record these still contain the data from the previous record. what is the code to clear them? have looked through the propeties and there is no useful 'clear' event that i can see. :confused: cheers!
I have a form with 1 unbound listbox as drop down list (entypolst), an unbound text box(entypotxt) and a command button. The list box reads items from a table. I want to change a value (text) on listbox, input a text on textbox so pressing the button add a new record in a table (Table1 fields Category,Product) showing in my form as subform (SFTable1) in datasheet view. For that reason a made the following code:
Code: Private Sub AddBtn_Click() Dim ans As Integer Dim strSQL As String Dim db As DAO.Database Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim ctl As Control
[code]....
I take the error msg for 0 items selected in listbox and exit the sub.
Code: Dim ctlTextBox As Control For Each ctlTextBox In Me.Controls If TypeName(ctlTextBox) = "TextBox" Then ctlTextBox.Value = "" End If Next ctlTextBox
to clear all text boxes on a Main Form.When I try the same code in the Form Load of the sub form - it says I can't assign a value to this object.I just want the Main Form and Sub Form textboxes to be empty when they both Load up.There is a selection combo box that will populate the main form and the sub form [Master-Detail] once a selection is made.Right now the main form has all empty textboxes but the subform datasheet is showing detail irrelevant records belonging to another master record and I want no data till a cmb box selection is made.
I have a form with a List Box (List BoxA) that returns a value from a query. I then have a Text Box (Text BoxB) that uses the value from List BoxB and multiplies it by let's say 2. It works giving me the correct value but only becomes visible after I click inside List BoxA. How can I make it visible as soon as the form is opened? I tried refreshing the form data, didn't work and I tried a requery macro which didn't work either.
Allen Browne's "Use a multi-select list box to filter a report" solution, in particularly with two multi-select list boxes? The code works fine for me for either box so long as I code it for one box alone. Combining the two into one code results in a type mismatch error. I'm trying to use the code to pass the contents of both multi-select boxes as Where conditions to a report. Both boxes are based on number fields. To try to isolate the problem, I've removed Allen's setDescription and OpenArgs conditions. We're unfortunately still on Access 2003 as the company desires to squeeze every dime by using until end-of-life next year.
Code: Private Sub cmdPreview_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Handler 'Purpose: Open the report filtered to the items selected in the list box. Dim varItem As Variant 'Selected items
I have a part of the form with the following fields
Title Name Address1 Address2 Area ...
Address2(street) field is a drop downbox, once selected the area text field will be automatically shown what I got in AfterUpdate event on Street is as below Me.txtArea = [cboAddress2].[Column](2)
the problem with this is, even when I move to another record the Area field doesn't clear up which is still using the old Area info that has been selected before,
I belive I have to have some Clear Up function on somewhere, not sure exactly where and what Code will clear up the value,
Hi everyone, I have been making progress with customizing a MS Access program, but one major problem is that I have been trying to make a List Box or Combo Box that I can use to enter data in the TABLE, but I find that I get a pull-down list that has the list of values from only the parameter that is primary key. More specifically, the program is set up as follows: I have two tables in this program: One that is called "invoices" and one that is called "items". In both of these tables, there is one common parameter, which is "Item Number". Item number is the primary key, and I used the "relationships" function to tie this parameter to itself between the two tables. I was successful in setting up a list-box for the "Item Number", but when I try to set up a list-box for another parameter that is supposed to display a person's initials, the pull-down list displays the list of item numbers instead of the list of people's initials. In fact, I don't know if there is an extra step I need to take so that the database stores a list of people's initials. Instead, I just fill in the initials in the field for each record for which the "Item Number" is the primary key. How can I get the list-box to pull down a selection of different people's initials, or in other words how can I get all the people's initials to be stored so that the list of initials can be looked up. Just so you know, I have tried different choices of entries in the "Lookup" tab in the Design mode of Tables, including Display Control, Row Source Type, Row Source, and Bound Column, but the outcome is that the only parameter that I get get in the pull-down list is the primary key, which is Item Number. I appreciate any help you can offer in explaining how to correct this. On a separate note, one of the parameters is "Date", and on the reports, I'm trying to figure out how to filter a specific date range so that I can limit each report to a specific month. Please advise me on this procedure as well. Thanks.
I am trying to create a command button that clears all the records in the Sub form in the CURRENT RECORD OF THE MAIN FORM. I know this sounds a little bit confusing, but I hope you understand!
The main form is: frmOrder2 The subform is: subfrmItemOrder
The fields in the subfrm that has to be cleared are:
Created a button through button wizard that is supposed to open a form to add a new record, but all of the fields don't clear out. Only some fields clear and other fields actually populate data from another record.
Snip1 shows my form with a record selected. When I click the 'New Waste' button, you can see that the record ID goes to '(New)', but the fields actually populate data from another record.
This even happens if I set 'Data Entry' to yes for the form.
here's the code behind my button:
Code: Private Sub btnNewWaste_Click() DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec End Sub
I even commented out my code for duplicating my record just in case but that didn't make a different.
Code:
Private Sub btnDuplicateRecord_Click() Dim ctrl As Control For Each ctrl In Me.Form.Controls If ctrl.Tag = "DefaultMe" Then ctrl.DefaultValue = """" & ctrl & """" End If
[Code]....
edit: this problem persists in a backup database that only contains one test record. The button pre-populates data that doesn't exist in the back-up database.
How would I create not only a list box but a Cascade combo box in Acess could you help me out on this thread?
So when I selct J for J Richard Szeremany the next ABC box only lists the CD's by that Artist then I click on the Name of CD and the song onfo comes up.
Im having a problem with a listbox/query/label. My DB is based on one that was posted in the sample database are of this forum. In itself it works really well. Clicking on the labels at the top of the list box applys a sort to the list box, each one of these sorts is based on a query. My porblem is that I want to be able to produce and print a report based on those queries. I know I could put a bunch of buttons on the form and do it that way. Or put a list box with all the my reports in and do it that way. I would prefer though, to have one button with one report reading the information from the different queries depending on what label is selected. Hopefully thats clear, the DB demonstartes it better. Any help appreciated. Thanks!
I am struggling to create the "hidden" control. I'm assuming it should be a text box? Where should the code given on the above page go in the text box properties? Do I need to do something to activate the code after selections are made in the list box?
Im tryin to move data from one list box to another ive seen some sample datebases and how they use command buttons to move the data back and forth from the list boxes (usually have <, >, <<, >> on the command buttons)
I have an unbound list box with it's row source a query whose select criteria comes from another list box once selected. When the form first opens the list box is empty until the user makes a selection. How do I prevent access from running the query in the first list box when the form first opens. It slows everything down.
I want to be able to specify the site of a disease. I had a combo box with pre-defined options (linked to a LU table) but now i find out there can be multiple disease sites. I changed it to a list box and chose multi-select (extended) but this does not retain the values in the form or record them in a table (even when I use the wizard and tell them what field i want the results in). What am i doing wrong or have I missed the whole gist of what a list box is for? Cannot find anything on line to help me here
I a list of data in a list box and i want to be able to choose diiferent pieces from the list. How can i ref an individual record in the list box do you use
ME.Listboxname.value something like that im lookin to move pieces of data from one list box to another for printing
i can move all the records by using Private Sub MoveAll_Click() Dim strSQL1 As String
strSQL1 = "Update projects SET projects.Selected = Yes Where projects.Selected = No"
DoCmd.SetWarnings False DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL1 DoCmd.SetWarnings True Form.Refresh End Sub
and i can move them all back by using
Private Sub RemoveAll_Click() Dim strSQL2 As String
strSQL2 = "Update projects SET projects.Selected = NO Where projects.Selected = Yes"
DoCmd.SetWarnings False DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL2 DoCmd.SetWarnings True Form.Refresh End Sub
I have a list box that contains 4 fields and the list box is located on a form. One of the fields on the form is [Date logged]. This is also colum 2 of the list box. I am trying to write some code to say that if the Date logged on the form is different to the one in the list box, run an append query. Basically, the principal behind this is to have an audit trail of when records have been ammended. The first time a record is created, a base record is created. It is this base record that will populate the list box along with all other record changes that occurr from that point on. I am trying to say that if the [Date logged] does not match the last record in the list then it knows it needs to append the record to the history table again as a change has been made. I would really appreciate some help here folks. Thanks so much! :-)
I have got what seems to be a pretty straight forward task i need to do!
I have got a table named tblInput, with four fields Type, Collection, Value and Reason.
I need to give the Type field two possible options "a" or "b", i then need the Reason field to display a list of values depending on whether "a" or "b" was selected in the Type field.
Values for "a" need to be "Success", "Failure" or "Rejected"
Values for "b" need to be "Status Change" or "Amendment"
I have been playin for a couple hours now trying various differnent methods but i am commin up short, its this something i am able to do from a table?
