Listbox Displays Data Associated With Parent Form?
Dec 23, 2006
Hey guys,
I was wondering... is there a way to have a listbox display values associated with a parent form ID? in other words... say I have a customer with invoices associated with their name, I want to display a form for that customer with a listbox (or maybe even subform) containing the invoice IDs associated with their name.
Right now, I've got:
SELECT qryClientData.InvoiceID, qryClientData.InvoiceDate FROM qryClientData ORDER BY [InvoiceDate]; to display information in the listbox. How do I modify this to display ONLY Invoices associated with the Clientname on the parent form?
I hope this makes sense. I can clarify if need be, I am just completely stumped. thanks and happy holidays!
How do I get my combo box selection to display related results in a list box? I have a many to many table structure for a contact list that relates many contacts to many costcenters. What I want is when the user selects a costcenter from the combobox the related contacts show in a list box.
i have a form porblem. I have a search form embedded onto my main form its really a listbox that when i click the records in it they display the record.
prob;em is that when i delete the record it still shows in the listbox
I have been having alot of trouble with this and just can't figure it out, I am trying to get data from a parent form into a subform so I can use it in equations. Specifically I have a DOB (Date of Birth) field on the main form, and want to have a =DateDiff("yyyy",[DOB],Date()) to find their age.
I need this in the subform because of some other information that relys on it. The way I have it right now you have to manualy put the DOB in the subform, and it can be different from the value in the main form. Could any of you tell me what I am doing wrong here?
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 have a form with a subform in a navigation menu. Something like:
Navigation Form NavigationSubform ParentForm (header data and some unbound calculation fields) Subform (Multiple lines tied to query)
I have some fields in the ParentForm (i.e PF1, PF2) that would effect the values on the Subform (i.e. SF1, SF2). Also, there are some user editable values on the subform that will calculate the remaining fields on the subform (still using data from parentform).
My calculations work fine for the changes made on the subform. However I need to be able to calculate all the children lines on the subform when the form loads or a change is made to certain fields on the parentform. My On_Current event only wants to recalculate the first line.
Parent Form PF1=10 PF2=3 Subform QTY ADJ SF1 SF2 Line 1 5 .05 10.6 112.89 Line 2 8 .14 10.38 105.15 ... Line N SF1=PF1+(PF2/QTY) SF2=SF1*(SF1+ADJ)
So if PF1 or PF2 were changed then all the lines is subform would recalc SF1 and SF2. If changes were made to QTY or ADJ, then that line would recalc SF1 and SF2.
I want a Text Box Query on my form to display the Status, Workshop, Time, Enrolled and Limit. The problem is these values come from two different tables and the Enrolled value comes from a single field that contains the different workshops.
What I mean is: In Table[Attendees] a row contains a customer's Number, First Name, Last Name, Workshop and Phone Number. The workshops vary for each customer so one row on the table could have John Doe attending Cover Letter Writing and the next row could have John Smith attending Resume Writing. What I want is to be able to count the different workshops within the Field[Workshop] and total them and then display the total in a Text Box Query. I have a Text Box Query set up displaying Status, Workshop, Time and Limit as these values all come from Table[Workshops].
So basically I need to Query to also display a result that is the Total for each workshop from Table[Attendees] and display the total for each workshop in a Query with data from Table[Workshops].
Here is a link to an Example Database [URL] ....
I'm trying to avoid putting things on different reports and the like because the people using this are basically computer illiterate and if they have to click a button (no matter how well labeled) they won't do it and the information might as well not exist.
And if there's a better way to do it, I'm all ears. The only thing is, I have to update these workshops month by month. Since they are dynamic, I want to avoid creating separate tables for each workshop.
I have a form that contains 4 sub-forms. In two of the Sub-Forms "Users" and "Computers" the form displays the PK on the second row when there is NO Data? (See attached).
Does anybody know how I can stop this from displaying?
I have created a combo box on a form using the combo box wizard. The combo box is linked to a table, and the combo box user's selection is supposed to be entered into a table so I can use it in reports, etc. The form works great. However, when I go to the table field that is supposed to have the newly entered combo-box selection, it contains only the record number, not the field contents chosen (by-the-way ... the record number and the record ID are the same ... maybe it is showing the ID??) Either way, why won't the table show the correct user choice from the form?
Haya all, I’m new to access and I’m trying to create a database for my boss, but am a bit stuck, it’s a Bundy clock system in access, I have the tables set up (I think), and what I’m stuck on is building a form where, when I put in the employs ID and press enter there name appears underneath, can anyone point me in the right direction of a tute that would show me how to do this?
Thanks so much
The way I have the table set up is 3 fields, staff ID, first name, last name. All within one table
I think I’m in over my head… but you have to learn somehow :confused:
I have an excel spread sheet that is linked into access 2003 via a table. This spread sheet is updated by personnel in another location and I have to run a weekly report on engines stored in that table that are below a certain performance level. The column heading is MGT Margin and I have to list all of the engines that are below 20 degrees. Can I run a query that looks at this table and produces a report of all the engines that are only below 20 degrees? I currently have to cut and paste each engine from the updated spread sheet every week onto a separate spread sheet and import that into access to run the report. Can a query be used to run the required report? I have attached a screen shot of the query that I am putting together to try and run this report.
I'm trying to use an Invoice number from an Invoice form to populate a table of Invoice Lines with relevant records (linking by Invoice number). I realise the following SQL code isn't an append query, but I've simplified it to make it easier to explain
SELECT [Forms]![fInvoices]![SPInvNumber] AS MTInvNumber, tInvoices.SPInvNumber FROM tInvoices WHERE (((tInvoices.SPInvNumber)=[Forms]![fInvoices]![SPInvNumber]));
The output I get for this query is something along the lines of:
MTINvNumber | SPInvNumber 쉠 | 49760
THe MTInvNumber should read the same as the SPInvNumber, but it doesn't. If you can't see the above, its some sort of weird chinese/japanese character I think!
I thought maybe it was a display error, but I tried using it in my append query, and it inserted it as garbage too. The weirdest bit is it actually regards the form information as equalling the SPINvNumber from the tInvoices table! :S
Any clues on how I get it to format correctly??? I'm very tired now so it's bound to be something simple!
Hello, please could anyone tell me if is it possible to have a combo box in a form that displays just the last 7 days? (from whatever today’s current day is) I need to be able to store this date that the user selects in a query/table(Currently I have a field named SHIFT_DATE that the user enters a date into this field, this field is bound/linked to a query)Ie a drop down list showing the dates like this:15/02/200614/02/200613/02/200612/02/2006& so on……ive used the following code in a query before to display records from just the last 7 days >=DateAdd("d",-7,Date())I thought maybe I could do something similar in a combo box but I’ve had no luck so far :-( any suggestions would be excellent. Thanks.
Hello I have a small problem that seems weird. I have a form which displays a subform with all correspondending jobs for one individual. The problem is the sub form displays the main form information with the other jobs. Im trying to stop the subform from displaying the current mainform's job information. So it won't look like there are more then 1 of the same jobs to other individuals. Can someone help me with the correct method to stopping this. Thanking you in advance,
I have a form, with a sub-form, which worked fine. but now, after I added and changed around the options in a combo box in the sub-form my main form only shows one result.
Here's a page that shows almost what I am trying to do, but my question is how do I make selecting an item in my listbox pupulate date in multiple field on my form?
For instance, I want to click on a line in a textbox and have the fields "City" "State" and "Zip" all changed on my form, not just "City"
I have made a search form for my company, where all the data is put simply into the tables and i have made a search form to search with the selected fields, it was working at first, but now it just displays blank table when i search.I am using ms access 2007.Here is the sql of the query::
I have a table I'm trying to query information out of. Key fields are below:
RecNo (Key) ParentRecNo Description
I need to have a "record" in the query show both the description of itself, as well as it's parent. I was hoping to use Dlookup directly in the query design. If there is no other way, I suppose I could create a temp table and look through the recordset in VBA and dump them into the temp table, but like I said; quick and dirty was the hope here, it's for my own use, and the tables aren't large 50-100 records is what I'll be pulling out when I use this.
I have a listbox that is populated with data from a table. I would like to use one of the columns data as the where clause of a sql string that will populate another form, how do I get the selected items column data that I need into a variable? This is in Access 2010 vba.
I'm trying to populate a listbox from a recordset. I will explain what I'm trying to achieve.
I have a (continuous) form with some data from a table. On the form header I have a listbox, showing all (distinct) customers from that form.
The user is able to do some filtering. That all works great. But I want to populate the listbox with ONLY the customers on the form AFTER filtering.
One way I thought might me the solution was using RecordClone. But I'm stuck there. It must be something simple for an expert. I'm not entirely a newbie, at least not to VBA. Is there an easy way to refer the listbox' recordset to the actual recordset on the form?
I have a form with a subform in it. On the main form, I have a combo box with a list of program numbers to choose from. Once one is selected, the subform displays all the unpaid invoices under that program number. This part works fine. The problem occurs when I try to close the form, switch to design view, or scroll the subform to the right. Basically, the error message says that the record can't be saved because it would create a duplicate value in the index/primary key. However, this form is used to display information only. I have disabled the edit, delete and addition abilities, so I can't figure out why it thinks I am trying to change or add a new record. Any help would be appreciated.
I figured it might make things easier if I included a copy of the database, so here it is.
The form is called SETR, and the subform is AllInfo subform.
why access 2007 is displaying an image oddly on a 2003/2008 terminal server farm. I am reasonably sure the problem is an access on terminal server issue because if you view the image in paint, image viewer, or word it displays fine on the terminal server. I don't think it is a resolution or color issue because once again it displays fine in paint, etc regardless of color depth.
The image below shows the difference in the png graphic. The image is transparent (the blue section being the background)

As you can see the terminal server image is pixelated.
The form the image is sitting on has a blue gradiant that goes light to dark left to right. The form properties are below
I have a parent form and a subform linked to the parent.
My client decided that he wants one of the controls from the parent form to be placed in the subForm area. The source of the control is still in the parent table but he just wants to place it in the subForm.
I am having a hell of a time doing this......
I tried to do it by changing the recordsource of the subForm by joining the Parent and Child tables so I could have access to that field in the subform.
But this is very ineffecient and I am getting new errors coming up as a result.
