I have designed a form with a Listbox which pulls information from a query.
The listbox multiselect vaue is set to NONE.
As I select a specific record, I have an update query which runs silently in the background through an implemented macro. The subroutine then requeries the listbox to update the latter with the latest values.
Here is a description of my problem:
1. After running the update query and upon requerying the listbox to update its values, I lose my initial listbox row selection. It is imperative that the listbox defaults to the user initial selection after the update requery action occured (note that this would be the same record).
I have searched the forum, but did not find a specific answer.
Firstly, is it possible to hide unchecked values in a listbox? I have a user with several roles and I want to only show the ticked roles in the listbox.
Secondly, can you create a hyperlink on listbox values? i.e, if I click on "Manager" in the roles listbox, it follows that to another form and opens the record about managers?
I have a table with training records. Each attendee is listed with date and the related document he was trained on. Now i want to make a listbox where the user can choose between the different dates of the trainings. Now when several people where trained on the same day, i get some dates back multiple times in my listbox. When you had 100 on the same day, 100 times the date in that listbox. Is there a way to filter out the same dates and show each date only one single time in my listbox?
So I have a multi-select listbox with tick boxes and values in on my form. Is it possible to make so only the checked values are showing up and then not display the tick box?
I know I can use a combo box to display several values, but using a listbox like this would be easier on the eye.
Is it possible to use code to get a text box to show the selected items in the list box?
I have a form that functions as information display/update for a table. It also needs to display a list of relevant codes from another table. The codes in the second table have an ID that will match an ID field on the main table. However when I do this I either get every code in the code table, or nothing.
Here is the SQL that I'm trying to use:
SELECT table_code_lookup.code_text, table_codes.code_extra, table_codes.alum_id, table_codes.ID FROM (table_code_lookup INNER JOIN table_codes ON table_code_lookup.code_id=table_codes.code_num) INNER JOIN table_alumni ON table_codes.alum_id=table_alumni.ID WHERE (((table_codes.alum_id)=me.id));
However anything I can think of putting for me.id doesn't work. I've written a sub that will modify the query and insert the correct ID num, but I can't figure out how to get it to run when I change records with the record selector.
I have the nagging feeling that I'm missing something totally simple, but can't figure out what it is, where am I going wrong?
inserting values from a listbox in to a table. I have a table with a field named: PrefReports. This field will hold data from values in a list box that the user selects.
Table: Profiles Field Name: PrefReports Type: Memo
The user utilizes a form to input the values necessary for the query. I then have the query tied to a command button. When the command button is clicked, the query is executed.
How can I take what the user selects in the list box, and insert into my TblProfiles.PrefReports field? When I run the query, all other information makes it to the table except the list box values.
I have searched all the forms but could'nt find any answer which would help me , I have created a listbox , it works fine till the moment i set its 'Multi select' property to SIMPLE or EXTENDED , the minute i do that i get no results in my query , could someone please help me with this , i really really need to get this workin!! I have also uploaded my database so u could try it yourself...
I have a form in which users can enter data in several textboxes to filter the listbox below it, this works great except for the fact that when a record lacks certain data it doesn't show up
Basically there are 4 filters, one for the name/id which works great, as the entries without id's show up just fine but this filter needs to be checked against the other 3 filters, for their group, education and type.
Lets use group as an example.
When a student has no group it should only show up when the group filter is an empty string. AFAIK the wildcards should see to that.
Currently however, when a student has no group, it doesnt show up at all unless I remove the | Like '*' & [groepFilter] & '*' | part from the query.
I've never used complicated WHERE's like this so it might be something very simple. I think I could get it to work using VBA and modifying the rowsource of the listbox from there but this would be a lot easier and I'm curious as to why this doesn't work.
The SQL:
SELECT Student.Studentindex, Student.studentid, Student.studentvn, Student.studenttv, Student.studentan, Student.Groepcode, Opleiding.opleidingsnaam, Opleiding.type FROM Student LEFT JOIN Opleiding ON Student.opleidingid = Opleiding.opleidingid WHERE (((Student.studentid) Like '*' & [naamFilter] & '*') AND ((Student.Groepcode) Like '*' & [groepFilter] & '*')
Whenever I create a combobox, Access asks me if I want to grab the values from another table, or if I just want to manually input the possible values.
My question is: is one of the two solutions "better" than the other?
Let's imagine I am creating a Form where I can create a new Contact, and in a listbox (with multiple selections allowed) I want to list the possible character traits, so I have
I think that if I need to store in the Contact records these possible traits, I will have to create a Many-to-Many relationship (therefor creating a junction table) between Contact and Traits.
On the other hand, could I do everything without grabbing values from an extra table and directly inputting the values in the listbox? How would these elements be stored in the Contact record if I allow multiple values in one single field?
The database I'm working on stores product records. To support the user narrow down which product they want to use, the navigation form has a listbox that looks to several combox values to filter the records it displays. As the user selects values for additional comboxes, the list of products from the listbox is refined. What I would like to do is set the comboxes up so that they also have to check the listbox to determine which records they should display.
For example:
Comboxes: Customer, Species
Starting out the listbox shows all products. The user wants to find a particular product that is sold to "Harly Quinn's Crab Imporium". They select "Harly Quinn's Crab Imporium" from the customer combobox. The listbox updates to show only products sold to Harly Quinn. The database currently has this functionality. What I want to add comes next:
The user determines that there are still too many records being displayed in the listbox, so he/she attempts to refine the search further by selecting a species from the species combobox. Currently all species from the species table are selectable from the species combobx, meaning that if the user selects a species that isn't sold to Harly Quinn, that the listbox will show no records. What I would like the combobox to do is refer first to the listbox and determine which species are still viable options based on the records available from the listbox.
I use Access 2003. I am trying to populate a list box with the names of files found in specific folder in my computer. The problem is that if the file name has a comma (,) in it, so the name is being separated in two parts - first what is before a comma and second what is after. I need them exactly as they appear in directory in order to open the files from this list box.
I am trying to create a list box that passes to the database a value that is different from what shown in the drop down list. For instance, I want to show the users a drop down list with "Yes" and "No", but then storing into the database "1" when "Yes" is selected and "2" when "No" is selected.
For the life of me I can't get the Multiselect Listbox to correctly pass along all of the item selections to a Query which a form is based on.
I've been up and down the forum, and I can't figure out what piece of code to use and how to use it successfully.
I've been able to get a string created using the example posted here (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=47909) and it's in the format of "54,67,89,100" etc.
Public Function Public Function fMultiSelect(ctlRef As ListBox) As Variant Dim Criteria As String Dim i As Variant
' Build criteria string from selected items in list box. Criteria = "" For Each i In ctlRef.ItemsSelected If Criteria <> "" Then Criteria = Criteria & "," End If Criteria = Criteria & Format(ctlRef.ItemData(i), "0000000") Next i
fMultiSelect = Criteria gMultiSelect = Criteria End Function
I now need to pass that string to a Query. Once it's been passed to the query, I can open the report based on it.
Essentially I have a button that will perform the string creation, and I would then like to open a report. I want to base the report off of a query and then have the query use Criteria to dwindle down the report.
Am I missing something here?
The long explanation:
I have a single form that allows for the selection of the report. Once the report is selected, certain fields appear that allow for certain criteria to be selected (ie. Class Name, Multi-Select Class Name, Student Names, Multi select Student Names, Dates, etc.)
Once the report has been selected and the criteria set, a user hits a single button that runs the specific report.
Any better ideas of how to set this up. The reports will ultimately be basing their criteria on what the form has in all of it's unbound fields.
I also have a table that specifies the Display Name, actual Report Name for the button to figure out what report to run.
Bottom Line. I want to use a Listbox to filter a report. If I can use a query to base the report off of even better. I don't want to create the SQL in VBA.
I am working on a personal expense ledger. On a particular field that is labeled [expense/income], and a field labeled [amount]. the [expense/income]field is a listbox field "with expense and income as the values. Here is what i want to do. when i select income from the listbox i want it to sum the total in the amount] field, and if i select expense i want it to subtract the total in the [amount] field. i hope i explain it correctly.
I have a multi-select listbox (called PotentialItems) which behaves perfectly unless one of the fields has a null value in it, in which case I get an error 13, "Type mismatch" in the following code. It is valid business-wise for column 9 to be null.
Code: Dim varItem As Variant Dim dblTargetPrice As Double With Me.PotentialItems For Each varItem In .ItemsSelected If Not IsNull(varItem) Then dblTargetPrice = Nz(.Column(9, varItem), 0) '<----- Error here End If Next End With
How can I pass two (2) values to a saved query ? These values are in a form that has a listbox with two (2) columns. The name of the form is 'Previous Evaluation Form'. I'm able to retrieve the values from both columns of the listbox in the form and I've already created the query. Both are working fine, but can figure out how to pass the query's criteria to select records for 'Name' and 'Date' columns of the query. Below is what I had in the 'Criteria:' of the query. What wrong with the code that is placed in the query's 'Criteria:' ?
I am trying to write a code that will execute at the change even of the combobox/Listbox and when a character is typed in it then all the data from "DocumentType" field whose first character matches with the first character typed in Combo/Listbox will be stored in it.
The following code doesn't work:
Private Sub ComboBox4_Change() Dim strText, strFind As String strText = Me.ComboBox4.Text If Len(Trim(strText)) > 0 Then strFind = "BarcodeRef like '" & strText & "*'" End If
I am currently trying to make a form which will generate a report for the users. Currently the form has 3 combo boxes where users select which fields they want displayed from the table in the report. They also have sorting options next to them (Asc or Desc). I am now trying to put in a multi select list box under each combo box to allow users to filter the report to their liking. Currently I am trying to pull distinct values from the specific field of the table and display them in the listbox for users to select.
I have tried using vba to set me.filter1.rowsource = SELECT DISTINCT me.combo1 FROM EVAP_Database, but this doesnt seem to work. I have also tried a few other codes and still no luck.
i am trying to insert multiple values that i have selected in my listbox to my database access table when i click the "add record button" but the values does not appear in my database table.
i have 2 listbox, when i select the first list box(businessNature) it will display the records in the 2nd list box(lstCuisine). However, the records in the the lstCuisine list box is not entered into the table in my database.
(ps: in my property sheet for my lstCuisine listbox its multi select is simple)
Here is my codes:
Private Sub Add_Record_Click() If IsNull(Name) = True Or IsNull(Mobile) = True Or IsNull(Email) = True Or IsNull(CompanyName) = True Or IsNull(BusinessNature) = True Then MsgBox "Please fill in Business Nature, Name, Contact, Email and Company Name" Else DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec End If Dim conceptValue As String
i have a multiselect listbox in my form. The multiselectlistbox contains the names of different persons from tblUsers. it's allready possible to write the id's of the names to another table (tblPresent).
But what I can't manage to do is re-select the values in another multiselect listbox. This multiselectlistbox is located on my editform. I can display the values using a valuelistbox, but i need to see the non-selected items too..
Hi, I'm new here, so I hope I'm posting this in the correct place. I've searched the forum to see if there are any existing threads that might help me, but I've not found anything that does... (I think this thread ( http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=93444&highlight=Copying+data )may be trying to achieve something similar to me, but I'm a beginner and don't really understand it)
I shall stop waffling! I'm not entirely sure that what I'm trying to achieve is possible, I expect it probably is!
Right, I have a form (frmGroupRegister, which contains exactly the same fields as the table it comes from, tblGroupRegister), which consists of three things:
-GroupDate - The date a group took place on. It is my primary key, as no more than one group occurs on a specific date.
-ParentList (A listbox which contains a query showing the ID number, forename and surname of everyone in a table, tblParentDetails)
-ParentsAttending (A blank listbox)
I would like to place buttons in between the ParentList and ParentsAttending, which would allow users to conduct a 'register' of attendance by copying individual/multiple details from ParentList into ParentsAttending (much like you get when choosing which fields to include in a form when using a wizard for example). I would also like them to be able to remove people from ParentsAttending by using a button in case of accidentally adding the wrong person into the ParentsAttending box.
I'm aware that another, probably simpler way of achieving this would be to use a tick-box system, but I feel that visually, the first method would both look better and demonstrate who is present more clearly.
Any help would be much appreciated, but my Access skills are quite basic and things will probably need to be spelled out for me. I'm using Access 2000 and Windows XP. Thanks for your help, Alice :)
I am using the selections made of the form to generate a query for the user.
I have a CITIES listbox that is populated with values from a stored query.
I would like to make it multi-select and populate a LOCATIONS list box and a NAMES list box based upon the CITIES that are selected.
I have the locations currently populated from a stored query that reads the City selection from the Form. It looks like this
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT (t_location.LOCATION) AS Expr1 FROM t_location INNER JOIN t_asset_master ON t_location.LOCATION_PHY_ID = t_asset_master.LOCATION WHERE (((t_location.CITY)=[Forms]![MasterQueryGenerator]![CityList]));
I also want multi-select so that is you can un-select all and get the results for all cities.
Here is my half thought approach.
Code:
Private Sub CityList_AfterUpdate() 'Dim LocQryStr As String 'Dim r As Integer 'Dim ctl9 As Control 'LocQryStr = "SELECT DISTINCT (t_location.LOCATION) " & _
[Code] ...
I intended to have the variable LocQryStr as the row source but I abandoned the idea of having multi-select when I saw that .Selected(I) never returned true. Its like the values aren't read in this subroutine.
I have a list box called "product list box" based on a query called "searchqry", i also have another listbox called "type list box" , how do i get the type list box to only show "types" based on the section in products list box?
