Make A Field Visable Dependant On Combo Box
Sep 18, 2006
I am very new to Access and all that it entails but I have really learned a lot viewing everyones posts. I cannot seem to get my current problem solved.
I am trying to have a combo box appear depending on a preivous combo box selection.
1st combo box is "ApplianceCombo"
2nd combo box is "SpeedCombo" Set to Visible = No
1st Combo Box has
Dishwasher
Vacuum
Washing Machine etc
If they choose Washing Machine I would like my 2nd combo box to appear which they can then choose
1000
1100
1200
1300
Hope I have explained this well enough.
Thank you in advance for any help

I have created a database that is used to track various programs that our organisation runs, and keeps a record of which Division the program is in.
at the moment I have a main form which has a combo box that lists Divisions, then I have a subform that has a combo box on it that lists the purchasers.
what I would like to do, is to have the Purchasers list update when a Division is selected in that main form, as depending on which Division is chosen the contents of the Purchasers list changes drastically.
Is anyone able to offer some assistance?

Hi
I would like to know how can i reference a combo box to the value of a text box on the form it is for a purchasing system.
if i select product one i only want the the order quantity for that item to show and the same with the price field as all the reorder levels and cost information is stored in a table. i have created queries only selecting the product code and reorder quantity and the product code and the cost price.
hope someone will be able to help
regards

I have a control called Pnummer (its personell number).After a user enters this number i want my combobox called Kenteken (Licenseplate number) to fill with only the licence plate numbers of the employee from the table Parkeerbeheer (Parking management).Should be simple enough, its like cascading comboboxes but then with only one combobox.So i put this code in the afterupdate event of the Pnummer control :
Code:
On Error Resume Next
kzlKenteken.RowSource = "Select parkeerbeheer.kenteken " & _
"FROM parkeerbeheer " & _
"WHERE parkeerbeheer.pnummer = '" & fldPnummer.Value & "' " & _
"ORDER BY parkeerbeheer.kenteken;"
I have left the rowsource blanc as above code handles that.
The only thing that comes to mind why it doesn't work is that the table bound to this form is NOT the source where i pull the licenceplate numbers from.

Quick question for you.
I know how to set a required field, but how do I edit two field so that they are dependant on each other? IE. How do I set my form to make FIELD1 required ONLY if FIELD2 is empty and vice versa?
Thanks very much and I hope I've explained myself correctly.

Hi Everyone,
I have a question about lookup fields. I have the tables below. The main table is [vid] and i reference other tables like [manufacturer], [model].. etc. to fill in [vid]. I have pull down lookups for all of [vid] but it is showing all models, makes, etc. I need helping making the lookup row dependant. For example when I am in [vid] and click on the [model] combo box for vid=1, I only want to see the models for that manufacturer(Ford), so it will only show mustang, escape, and navigator; not all of the models. For vid=2, when I click the pull down for model I only want to see Gm Models, corvette and cavalier. So this is what i mean be row dependant. Is this possible?
Thanks so much in advanced,
Michael

I have a list box containing various items. I would like to have another field return a numeric value depending on what is selected in the list box. For example, if Closed is selected from the list box, the other field would return a 1. How can I do this. The new field also needs to be linked to a table so the values are saved in the table. Thanks for the help.

Hello,
First please accept my apologies if this has been done before. In the attached database I am going to have a form which is continous what I am looking to do is change the colour of the box which is in the background to the associated colour from the quote table for example
if they choose water then it will look at the TBLQuoteType and change the box colour to the colour which has been assigned to that value.
Hope this explains it ok I will continue to try and figure it out but I thought I could also use your expert knowledge.

I'm creating a database which contains information for keeping dog grooming clients. It has 3 tables, table 1 is customer, table 2 is dog, and table 3 is booking.I want to be able to choose the customer table and within that you can see the pet linked to that customer and within the dog table you can see any bookings with that dog.What I have done is linked the pet and booking table to the customer details via mobile no. being the primary key.
I want a form called appointments which contains fields *ID, date, mobile, dog name, grooming stlye and other. What i want to happen is this, once the mobile number is entered, i then when it to lookup the mobile number in the dog table and pull the pet name from that, then in the dog name box it will then provide a drop down of dogs related to that mobile number.
I understand a query needs to be made in the dog name field, so in that field i created a query to look up the mobile no. in the appointment table, and to then lookup the pet name in the pets table. This kind of works. The two problems are this, the drop down in the dog name field shows all of the dogs in the database not just the ones assigned to the mobile no. in the field before. If i choose one of the dogs not related to that mobile it changes the mobile number in the field before to the relevant one (but i don't want to be able to see the dogs which arent related to the mobile no. in the field before.The other issue is that on one of the customers there are two dogs, now on the drop down you can see both dogs, but it will only allow you to select the dog that was entered first into the database. If i select the other dog it simply chooses the data for the one first entered.
I have read about doing Requeries on the afterupdate of the field and attempted this by choosing the dog name field and in the afterupdate telling it to requery pet name (I've also tried mobile), this hasn't worked. I have a feeling I'm getting a bit confused by which fields i'm supposed to use etc.

I'm sure this is in this forum someplace but I can't locate it.
I have a form.... With a subform...
I want the subform to be invisable until I click a command button to make it visable.
Tried a macro..... but it must be wrong... opens subform in a new window.. doesn't make it visable where I want it...... :confused:

Hi I have a forrm (Orders) , with a subform (Order Details)
Depending on a selection of a list field it makes certain field visible in the subform.
If I go the next record and select the list field it updates fields in the subform ( Visible ( True or False )
But if I go back to the previousl record it doesnt update the fields that are relavent to the option picked in the List Filed ( Which I have set to after update ). It works fine if I re-select the option in the list field
How do I set it to update the subform field automatically as I scroll through records?
I tried OnCurrent property but I dont think this is the correct one.
please help

I'm currently working with a form, which is in datasheet view. I have many rows which are combo boxes (yes/no), and the name is rather long. So each line (each row) spreads on to 2-3 pages to the right.What I would like to do is make the namebar, on top of every column, a little bit higher, so the name would be split into two lines, or three. Allowing me to make the width allot smaller.Here is an example of my problem:http://213.213.137.96/~terminal/columns.jpgSo my question is, can I change the height of the column name? Or is there some trick I can use?regardsFrímann Kjerúlf

Access 2003
Database for tracking job search/applications
I have three tables: Job (includes employer, contact) and Contact (First name, Last name, employer), and Employer (Employer name)
Form.Job is the main data entry mechanism. On this form, I enter the job details. I select the employer from a combo-box that draws from the Employer table. I would like to select the contact from a combo-box that filters contacts and shows only those that match the Job.Employer selection.
:confused: 1. How can I make a bi-directional link so that a new entry in the employer combo-box creates a new entry in the employer table? At the moment, I get around this with a "New employer" button on Form.Job that just opens up the employer table, but there seems to be an updating issue - new names don't show up in the combo-box for a while
:confused: 2. How can I get the contact combo-box to show only contacts with an employer that matches the employer selected in the employer combo-box?
Note that I got this to work once by using a sub-form, but I don't really understand how (presumably Access defaults that did what I wanted), and I don't want to have to use a sub-form.

How Do You Do Dependant Fields?
Example being:
I have a list of Stores of which there are 4 Formats (Super, Extra, Metro, Express). Each of these formats have their own specific grades.
What i want to do is when entering a new store via a form, In the Format box i would choose one of the formats from a combo box then when i progress to the Grade Entry, i would only want to see the Grades for that particular Store Format.
Would i need to have different lookup tables for each of the format grades & how do i achieve the above?
Ive seen this done on Airline web sites, ie select outgoing airport then the destinations change to only those that can be reached by flights from the Outgoing airport.

I have a combo: cmb_TrainingType. The sql is:
Code:
SELECT tblTrainingType.TypeID, tblTrainingType.Type FROM tblTrainingType ORDER BY tblTrainingType.Type;
My second combo (the one that should be filtered based on the Type chosen above) is cmb_Project_Title. The sql I have written (which isn't working) is:
Code:
SELECT tblCourseDetails.CDID, tblCourseDetails.Project_Title FROM tblCourseDetails WHERE (((tblCourseDetails.TypeID)=Forms!frmResourcing.cmb_Training_Type) And ((tblCourseDetails.Type)=Forms!frmResourcing.cmb_Training_Type)) ORDER BY tblCourseDetails.[Project_Title];
Both of the tables that are referenced have the fields TypeID and Type.

Only thing left is a combobox (dropdown) with predefined values. What i want is, as soon you have picked a value from the combobox, save the record and go to the new blank record, the last picked value of that combobox auto appears in the combobox for the new record.

I have a field in a table that I want it to be multivalued. The values are stored in a different table. I tried to do that and it worked fine. But when I wanted to display a pie chart in a report based on a query, the values didn't show up.
Example:
EmployeeName: X
TermenationReasons: 1,2,3 (multivalued field - values stored in a different table)
I though of just changing the field type to a text, and create a combo box in the form that allows me to add multiple values, and appear on the table and the query, and the pie chart too.how to make a multi-valued combo box in a form.

I have an existing combo box on a form that gives me access to 297 different selections. The problem is that as things have been added to the table it sources they have become out of order alphabetically. At the time of creating the combo box, I don't believe the option to display alphabetically was selected. Can I change the properties of this combo box now so it will display the 297 options alphabetically.
If So............ How?

What's the correct syntax to search for in the forums, for this question.
Have a customer database, where the customers records are split across two tables. The second table holds the customers address; when this changes I need to record the date so that in the future, any invoices etc always have the correct address on them for that particular date.
I have a cross tab query which works quite happily and when you create the record it adds a date/time stamp. However what I cannot seem to figure out is how to save any ammendments to the address etc as a new record, whilst not adding a new record to the non "dative information" such as Name, DOB etc. The PK for table2 is made up of the Customer Number And Date/Time Stamp. At the moment any changes I make to the existing record in table2 simply over writes the edited fields..
Can I do this through the QBE, or does this have to done using recordsets?
Anyone help please?
