can a listbox get its info from a query? i have been trying to create a calendar type form which is going ok and every day has a listbox to show the current events. each event will be put into a table via a form (events table ) and i was wanting to have every listbox look at the query based on the table based on the date as a criteria so every listbox will only show events related to that date. text boxs are not really an option as i need to show multiple events.
the fields in the table would be-
EventID
PersonID
Event Date
Event Time
Event Description
Event Notes
Event Priority
i was planning on only showing the time and description, then OnClick would open up the complete information.
i can relate the query to the main Calendar form too.
any advise would be great. i can work out the links if it can be done but i dont have access at work so cannot try anything until i get home :(
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?
1. On my main form, I have a listbox, I would like to edit the values of the listbox.
To do this, I have a popup form with 2 listboxes, one to have the values of the listbox on the main form, and the other listbox with option values for the 1st
1) how to i pass the rowsource sql of the listbox on the main form to the listbox on the popup form
2) how on closing the popup form, do i update the rowsource sql listbox on the main form from the changed value of the popup form listbox rowsource sql
Okay then, after much trouble and confusion, I finally realized I need to use an Extended listbox in order to allow for multiple items to be selected from a list on my form (rather than the evil multiple selection combobox!).
However, now I am trying to figure out how to make one listbox (IndustryClassification) only be visible if the item "Industry" is selected in another listbox (TypeOfBusiness). Coding I can use for this in the AfterUpdate event of the listbox?
The first listbox contains Roses, lilies, Cactus, etc. When the user select Roses, the second listbox will display Pink roses, red roses, white roses, etc, and not all the other flowers that's in the table.
What should I do? I'm using Access 2003. Thanks in advance!
Im running an update query but in the criterial field i would like to include something that instructs the query to be executed only on the value selected in my listbox.
i need some help with the syntax cause i dont know how to bound the query's execution to the selected/highlighted value in the listbox.
I want to pass a search parameter from a form to a query then use the query results to populate a multi-column list box. So far, I can pass the parameter to the query and generate results, however, I want the query results sent to a listbox rather than create a new window.
I set up the listbox to receive results from the query, but when the form opens the listbox is already populated with arbitrary query results. I want the listbox to be empty when the form is opened, I submit a parameter to a query, and the listbox fills with the results
Additionally, once the listbox is populated, I want to clear the listbox but am having the error: The RowSourceType property must be set to 'Value List' to use this method.
I'm still a little new to this, so please bear with me. I've searched to no avail for what I am looking for, so if there is an existing thread and you would rather point me in it's direction as opposed to answering my question, that would be fine.
I want one of the parameters of my delete query to be only the first column of my "ProdList" listbox, but don't know how to specify this. This is what my query looks like so far... Can someone tell me how do i need to change it?
DELETE ProductionLog.Username, ProductionLog.Date, ProductionLog.OrderNumber FROM ProductionLog WHERE (((ProductionLog.Username)=fOSUserName()) AND ((ProductionLog.Date)=[Forms]![Production]![TheDate]) AND ((ProductionLog.OrderNumber)=[Forms]![Production]![ProdList]));
I have a query which returns names to a listbox. The query works by a Command Button and 'Requerys' by using the Command Button. But, I cant get the ListBox to refresh on a Requery. All it does is add results of the Requery to the bottom of the list. I'm obviously missing something basic....any ideas?
I'm working on a company recruitment database. I've stripped out where my problem is and attached the relevant file/tables/queries, etc...
I have a form with 2 listboxes (left and right) that are used to select various combinations of employees depending on job role and skill types. The results are displayed in listbox 3 (bottom) at the bottom of the page. You can then use this list to view more detailed records which open up on the right of the main form...
The left listbox which selects job roles works fine, however I want the right listbox to ONLY show employees that match ONLY instances of skills selected.
What currently happens is that employees are shown that match ANY of the skills chosen instead of ONLY the skills chosen...
I've tried IN, = , and different operators but cannot seem to find a resolution...
Note: (There's an annoying msgbox that displays the rowsource variable every time you click the listboxes that I used for testing LOL)
The query's are addressed in VBA behind the main form...
I have a listbox inside a subform. I want to use the 'click' Event on a "search" command button (found on the main form) to trigger a query from inside that listbox and fill it with values from a table. The following is the argument I have written for that event procedure:
Private Sub CommandSearch_Click() Me.GS_SearchSF.Form.listSF1.RowSource = _ "SELECT MaxSize1 " & _ "FROM GS_Ctg_Float " & _ "WHERE Supplier = '" & Me.GS_SearchSF.Form.SupplierQuery.Value & "';" 'THIS ONE ISN'T WORKING End Sub
Except as you might imagine, it is not working. It works when I just type a name from that table into the argument in place of the text seen above in red. For instance:
Private Sub CommandSearch_Click() Me.GS_SearchSF.Form.listSF1.RowSource = _ "SELECT MaxSize1 " & _ "FROM GS_Ctg_Float " & _ "WHERE Supplier = 'Viracon';" 'THIS ONE WORKS End Sub
What am i doing wrong?
Here's some background:
GS_SearchSF is the name of my subform
listSF1 is the name of the list box in the SubForm that the query is supposed to fill
SupplierQuery is the name of the list box in the subform I want to extract the value from and put into the query
Hi there. I have a problem with queries that i am creating on the fly with access. My setup is this:
A table called Order which has various fields including a field called Date Taken. The format of this is Date/Time with the format d/m/yyyy.
A form called frmMultiSelect which has a listbox called lstdates and a command button called cmdOpenQuery.
in lstdates the row source is: SELECT DISTINCT Order.[Date Taken] FROM [Order] UNION select "......ALL......" from [Order];
And in the button onClick event i have the following code (adapted from a web source):
Private Sub cmdOpenQuery_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdOpenQuery_Click Dim MyDB As DAO.Database Dim qdef As DAO.QueryDef Dim i As Integer Dim strSQL As String Dim strWhere As String Dim strIN As String Dim flgSelectAll As Boolean Dim varItem As Variant
Set MyDB = CurrentDb()
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM [Order]"
'Build the IN string by looping through the listbox For i = 0 To lstDates.ListCount - 1 If lstDates.Selected(i) Then If lstDates.Column(0, i) = "......ALL......" Then flgSelectAll = True End If strIN = strIN & "#" & lstDates.Column(0, i) & "#," End If Next i
'Create the WHERE string, and strip off the last comma of the IN string strWhere = " WHERE [Date Taken]=" & Left(strIN, Len(strIN) - 1)
'If "All" was selected in the listbox, don't add the WHERE condition If Not flgSelectAll Then strSQL = strSQL & strWhere End If
MyDB.QueryDefs.Delete "qryCompanyCounties" Set qdef = MyDB.CreateQueryDef("qryCompanyCounties", strSQL)
'Open the query, built using the IN clause to set the criteria DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryCompanyCounties", acViewNormal
'Clear listbox selection after running query For Each varItem In Me.lstDates.ItemsSelected Me.lstDates.Selected(varItem) = False Next varItem
Exit_cmdOpenQuery_Click: Exit Sub
Err_cmdOpenQuery_Click:
If Err.Number = 5 Then MsgBox "You must make a selection(s) from the list", , "Selection Required !" Resume Exit_cmdOpenQuery_Click Else 'Write out the error and exit the sub MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_cmdOpenQuery_Click End If
End Sub
When i open the form and look at the list box the dates are there along with the ......ALL...... however the dates whose day is less than 10 are displayed with the leading 0 e.g 04/12/2005. When i click the run query command button on one of these dates the query is opened blank. the sql code output is: SELECT * FROM [Order] WHERE [Date Taken]=#04/12/2005#;
If it was changed to 4/12/2005 it works but i dont know why access is putting in this leading 0.
Please help me!! I can send the database if needed
I want to have users be able to choose query "x" "y" or "z" from a listbox. Upon selection of query "x" "y" or "z" from the listbox, I want the query to run? I want to run this query from form "RunQueries" Does anyone know how I can do this? Thank you in advance for any suggestions, I appreciate all the help I can get
I have a table of customers and have table of stuff they can buy. Those two tables I use in the next table where their ordes get registred. I have and order form where I have a listbox. When I create a new order I want to have the customersname in a listbox but I want the customersID(primary key) returned in order table. How do I do that? :confused:
The query below is supposed to accept some characters from the user and bring up a list of records satisfying the criteria. TelephoneAAA is a table with many columns. The query does not give any error message receives input from user runs quietly and does not give any result. I know that the table contains sufficient data. Probably I am missing something obvious but what.
Code: RowSourceQy = " SELECT * from [TelephoneAAA] " & _ "WHERE (([TelephoneAAA].[SOYADI]) Like ((' * ')+ [Word] +(' * '))) OR " & _ "(([TelephoneAAA].[ADI]) Like ((' * ')+[Word]+(' * '))) OR " & _ "(([TelephoneAAA].[ADRES]) Like ((' * ')+[Word]+(' * ')))" & _ "ORDER BY [TelephoneAAA].[SOYADI], [TelephoneAAA].[ADI], [TelephoneAAA].[TEL];"
I've got the following query as the row source for a listbox on a main form. cboShootName is a combobox on that same form.
Code: SELECT DISTINCT QrySbfShotList.CamerasFK, tblCameras.CameraNum FROM QrySbfShotList INNER JOIN tblCameras ON QrySbfShotList.CamerasFK = tblCameras.CamerasID WHERE (((QrySbfShotList.shootsFK)=[me]![cboShootName])) UNION SELECT null, "(ALL)" FROM QrySbfShotList INNER JOIN tblCameras ON QrySbfShotList.CamerasFK = tblCameras.CamerasID WHERE (((QrySbfShotList.shootsFK)=[me]![cboShootName]));
When the form loads, it prompts for a value for me.cboShootName, even though I've given the list box a default value. More important, after the cboShootName is established, ie. in its after update event, if I put Me.lstCamera.requery (lstCamera is the list box in question), the system prompts me for the value of me!cboShootName. I know the cboShootName is in scope because I see its value with a msgbox diagnostic.
The first column of both the cboShootName and lstCamera refer to numeric fields. Both controls are unbound.
What am I missing? Is there a trick to referencing control values in a query?
I just got stuck with the following. I have a listbox where I have some values. I want to use the value of the first listbox to pass this to a query. I have the below code:
Code: Private Sub List28_GotFocus() ' Limit the subject emails in the list box Me.List28.RowSource = "SELECT [Subject] " & "FROM tbl_eMail_Archive " & " WHERE [FolderName] " & "Me.List23.Value" ' Refresh the list box Me.List28.Requery End Sub
Now I have coded what I think should work for my listboxes and it does not. When I click it does nothing. No processing of anything.
I have 11 multi-listboxes and want to collect what the user selects from each one and then use it to run my query. The query only uses 4 of the listbox items and then 4 other items that I have in the query. I want to be able to display this in the same form or perhaps a subform. Here is my code:
Code: Private Sub command8_click() ' Update the record source If BuildFilter = "" Then Me.frmQual_Sub.Form.RecordSource = "select * from qualq1 where " & BuildFilter End If
I am just starting out in Access Development. I have a database that runs a logistics department. This was working fine until the users wanted a little more tweaking.
The report prints out the vehicles with all corresponding drops. This comes out all on sheet.
Is there a way that I can create a form to filter the report via a multi select listbox and print each drop selected on a seperate sheet of paper.
I have a search form that uses several comboboxes, textboxes and checkboxes that are used as criteria in a query. You enter in the relevant information, hit search and a report opens based on the filtered query.
What I would like to do is change one of these combo boxes to a listbox and use the multiple selection as the query criteria. I know it's not as simple as just putting the listbox as a criteria in the query, and I've also tried many different variations on the varItem and strWhere code.
I would like to have the user select one or more values in a list box, and use those values as criteria in a query. Then the query will be used as a source for list boxes in another form based on the values of the previous selection.
Example:
User selects options 1, 3, and 4 from the list box on Form A. The query then sets the criteria to anything related to 1 OR 3 OR 4. Then in another form, Form B, all the data tied to option 1 is in its own list box, all the data tied to option 3 is in its own list box, and all data tied to option 4 is in its own list box.
I've got this multiple select listbox which writes data into a textbox:
Private Sub List2_AfterUpdate()
Dim Cursisten As String Dim ctl As Control Dim Itm As Variant
Set ctl = Me.List2
For Each Itm In ctl.ItemsSelected If Len(Cursisten) = 0 Then Cursisten = ctl.ItemData(Itm) Else Cursisten = Cursisten & "," & ctl.ItemData(Itm) End If Next Itm Me.txtCursisten = Cursisten
End Sub
And I've got a SELECT ALL button to select all records in the listbox:
Private Sub cmdSelectAll_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdSelectAll_Click
Dim i As Integer
If cmdSelectAll.Caption = "Alles Selecteren" Then For i = 0 To Me.List2.ListCount Me.List2.Selected(i) = True Next i cmdSelectAll.Caption = "Alles De-Selecteren" Else For i = 0 To Me.List2.ListCount Me.List2.Selected(i) = False Next i cmdSelectAll.Caption = "Alles Selecteren"
The only thing is that when I use the SELECT ALL button, the function List2_Afterupdate doesn't work anymore. There must be a simple solution but I just can't figure it out. Can anyone please help me?
