Modules & VBA :: Assign OnClick Event To Control Through Code

May 27, 2014

Visual Studio IDE environment and I have been working with Access VBA for almost a year now.

I am very used to generating my form controls in runtime and being able to create some cool user interface interactions by being able to say btnExample.OnClick += MyDynamicClickFunction

MyDynamicClickFunction(Object sender, EventArgs e).... code

Any way to assign functions to the events of already made controls on a form. Probably during the load event?

Now I have found that there are many ways to replicate Visual Studio's features by accessing User32 and replicating them

Modules & VBA :: Creating One OnClick Event For All Labels On Form

Mar 18, 2014

I would like to make clickable labels on my form, so if the user has any questions about the field, clicking on the label would bring up a message box that would give them more information. I know how to write onclick events one by one for every label, but there are a lot of them, and I feel like there has to be a better way.

I put the label names, and the text I'd like for the message box in a table, and I'd like to have a module that will allow me to click on a label, and have the right text come up.

I've researched ways to do this and have come up with nothing. The farthest I've gotten is an array tied to the form open event that just displays all the message boxes from first to last, one after the other. I believe that's on the right track, but is not a workable solution as is. I need to be able to tie the message box to the actual label the user clicks.

Modules & VBA :: Setting OnClick Property Causes Immediate Launch Of Event Procedure

Feb 5, 2014

I tried to dynamically set image OnClick property to function with couple of attributes. Everything works well, but... it launches the function automatically without any mouse click! What is causing this? I want to execute the function only on the result of mouse click.

Piece of code:

Forms!Form1.Controls("Image" & i).OnClick = fclick(PiltID)

Private Function fclick(u)
DoCmd.OpenForm "Form2"
Forms!Form2.Image0.Picture = u
End Function

Modules & VBA :: Assign Values To A Table Through Code?

Jun 24, 2015

I have a table (tblPrinterSelection) with three fields: Autonumber, DocType, PrinterSel

There are three types of values for "DocType"; "Document", "LargeLabel", "SmallLabel"

I want to assign a "PrinterSel" to each type of "Doctype", which basically means that the user selects the type of document and then the printer in a form that has the code below and then I need the code to automatically update the table.

Code:
Dim PrintSel As String
Dim DocType As String
'Assign a value to the printer selected variable
PrintSel = Me.lblPrinterSelected.Caption
If IsNull(Me.frmDocType) Then
MsgBox "No document type selected."

[code]....

What i am looking for is code that would pick the value for "DocType" and "PrintSel" assigned here and add them to the table so that I can use that info later.

I am only looking to have three rows in that table so if the "DocType" does not exist then a new row is created but if it does, only the value of "PrintSel" is updated.

I should end up with something like this:

1 Document Epson
2 LargeLabel HP
3 SmallLabel Canon

How can I do this?

Modules & VBA :: Assign Value To Enumerated Control Property

Sep 13, 2014

I want to retrieve and assign values of a control's properties by naming the properties. So for example:

Dim myHeight As Long
Dim myPropertName As String
myPropertyName="Height"
myHeight = 315
Forms!Myform.MyTextBox.Height = myHeight

I can retrieve the value using Eval:

Debug.Print Eval("Forms!MyForm.MyTextBox." & myPropertyName ) gives 315

How can I do the inverse operation, ie.assign the value of a property whose name I have in a string MyPropertyName? I mean other than a brute-force approach with a huge Case.

Button And OnClick Event

Oct 2, 2006

Attached is a project I am working on. It's a personal reminder program. The problem I am having is that when I enter the actual completion date at the bottom and click on the "Complete Task" button, I want the record to be copied to the History table, then the Start Date and Due Dates reset based on the Frequency. If someone could look at the On Click event procedure for this button and help me get this fixed, I would appreciate it very much. I don't know much about VB or SQL coding.

Thanks,
Jim

Forms :: Continuous Subform - OnClick Event For Text Box

Apr 2, 2015

I have a continuous subform which essentially comprises of a textbox that shows a field from a query.

The text in that box is essentially a few letters and a few numbers - what I am wondering is if I can have an on click event for the textbox, that when a user clicks the text it takes them to the record (in a different form) that matches the text contained in the textbox they clicked?

Forms :: Using OnClick Event To Open Query Text Displayed In Form Field?

Oct 10, 2013

I have a table that holds the SQL texts for ca. 1000 Select queries (mostly minor variants that are used to programmatically swap out RowSource strings for combo boxes). I'd like to have a quick and easy way to open/review/modify these queries.

One strategy would be to display the SQL strings in a field on a Datasheet form, then use an onClick event on a text box linked to the SQL-holding field (or perhaps an onClick event tied to an unbound text box on the form) to open the associated query. That would allow me to view the SQL of the query that I want to open, allow me to quickly scroll through the list of stored SQL texts, and give me options for sorting or limiting the SQL-texts displayed in the datasheet form.

But, I can't seem to get the onClick event to work. The problem seems to be that I can't figure out how to pass the SQL string contained in the field to a function that will use that string to open the query .

Forms :: Change Records Source And Run Query - Onclick Event Of Command Button

Apr 8, 2013

I have a tabbed form in a navigation form with a chart on it. The records source of the chart is a query. The query runs when you click the tab and takes a long time. I changed the Row Source of chart to "" and that eliminates the query running on form load. I've read many posts on changing that row source when a command button is clicked. I tried

Code:
Me!Suspend_Trending_Dashboard![chart].RecordSource = suspend_trend_CHART

in the onclick event of the command button. This doesn't work. I've tried many variations of the syntax. I don't know if I have to tell the query to run after the row source is changed.

On a side note, the query criteria is based on beginning and end dates entered into text boxes on the form. This all works if the query loads when the form is opened.

Modules & VBA :: Where To Place Code That Run Constantly Without Event Such As A Click

May 26, 2015

I'm currently trying to make the call answering screens a bit better in the call centre that i work in. i'm trying to make a caller i.d. for incoming calls. i have a reference library from the telephone software people in vba that lets me dial and hangup the phone, now i'm trying to place a text box on the form that will update to show the number of an incoming call which will enable me to search a table of contacts and display the details of the caller if they are available. i'm guessing that i need to create a loop that will run until there is an incoming call but i don't know where to place the code without it needing a mouse click or mouse over to trigger it. i just want it to run constantly.

General :: Code For OnClick Zoom A Image

May 5, 2015

I am new to VBA for access. I am working on a form as a user interface. I have added an picture to the form. It looks small, and not clear because of the size, and each image has different size. I would like to know if there is a VBA code that will allow me to click on it, and then it will open in another window so it is bigger with the right sizes. I attempted like this:

Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "Prova", , , "Campo1=" & Campo1

but don't work

Prova is another form and Campo1 is the field with the picture.

I also need to save about 120,000 images. I wonder if the best solution is to use the attachment for the field type or another. What format should I Whereas in the mask I preview. And if Access internally saves the images or not.

Modules & VBA :: Update Value In Unbound Control Then Trigger Event?

Feb 4, 2015

I am updating a value in an unbound control on an unbound form. When the value in the control is changed I want a sequence of code to execute. Specifically changing the record source of a subform and refreshing it.

The problem I have is that when the value of the unbound text box is control is changed (I am using a button to change the value as a test) the after update event on the text box does not do anything.

I did a simple test using a button to change the value in the text box and in the afterupdate event of the text box asked it to output the value of the textbox to a message box as shown below.

The problem is this does not work, nothing happens. If I tab out of the text box or change the value with the keyboard however the msgbox appears. Just not via a vba change.

Code:
Private Sub Prod_ID_AfterUpdate()
Dim pid As String
pid = Me.Prod_ID
MsgBox pid
End Sub
Private Sub Button_Test_Click()
Me.Prod_ID.SetFocus
Me.Prod_ID = "TEST"
End Sub

Modules & VBA :: ActiveX Control Events Aren't Raised While Calling Its Methods From The Open Event

Oct 9, 2013

We have an ActiveX grid control, 10Tec iGrid, written in VB6. One of its method, Group, used to group rows, raises the AfterAutoGroupRowCreated event so the developer can adjust the look and contents of every group row created during the automatic process of grouping.

When our ActiveX grid is hosted on an MS Access form and we call the Group method while populating the grid in the form's Open event, the AfterAutoGroupRowCreated event isn't triggered. But this event definitely works as expected in other development environments, and even in MS Access if we call Group from the form's Load event.

Is it a well know issue of MS Access, when any events of ActiveX controls aren't triggered while "executing" the Open event

Tables :: Updating Fields In Multiple Tables Without Onclick Event

Oct 23, 2013

I am working on a database which has two tables used as part of a registration and login process.

I would like a couple of fields from table one to automatically update in table two, once the fields in table one are populated without using an 'on click' event.

The reason I would prefer not to use an onclick is because the completion of the form used to generate the users table does not require any buttons for the data to save.

Using VBA To Assign Value To Control

Aug 18, 2006

I have been pulling my hair out (OK, I would be if I had enough to do so) over trying to assign a value to a control on a form. Basically, when a change is made to the form, I'm using the AfterUpdate event to trigger the code. The code in the event is

Me.txtWho = Environ("UserName")

Simple, straightforward or so I thought. Problem is, it gives me an error stating I cant' assign a value to that object. txtWho is bound to a field in the query underlying the form and the control is enabled and not locked. Can anyone shed some light on this for me please????

Forms :: Vba Assign Text Box Control Source

May 30, 2013

I am working with textbox [DispCD] (a date field) on form [Contract]. There is a dropdown on combobox [Searchbox] for selecting the desired record. I am writing VBA in the [Searchbox] OnChange event. The control source for [DispCD] would normally be "=Searchbox.column(11)". If "column(11)" has a date, I want [DispCD] to show that date and then be locked. If "column(11)" does NOT have a date, I want [DispCD] to allow entry of a date with the date picker showing. I've tried to assign the control source to [DispCD] with this:

CSVal = Format(Forms![Contract]!SearchBox.Column(11), "ddd m/d/yyyy") (this works)
If CSVal = "" Then _
Forms![Contract]!DispCD.countrolsource = "=SearchBox.Column(11)"

I get "Object doesn't support this property or method" error.

Modules & VBA :: OnClick To Requery A Combobox

Nov 5, 2013

I want a command button to "Requery" a combobox. the combobox uses a query to determine the records listed (it lists incomplete records). after completing the record, i'd like to hit a command button that will "requery" the combobox so that the recently completed record is no longer listed.

I tried this:

me.nameofcombobox.requery

But the completed record was still listed.
