Modules & VBA :: Calculating Information For A Text Field On A Form From A Query
Aug 4, 2014
I have a data entry form [Resources] and I would like to display some information about holidays in the form footer. Once the user has picked a combination of Trainer_Name and Start_Date I would like the 'On Change' or 'On lost Focus' event (not sure which would be the best) to perform a datediff calculation.
The datediff calculation would compare the difference between the start date entered on the form and the most recent past Start_Date on a query called [Hours Holiday_P1].I could adapt the same code to also look for the difference between the End_Date on the form and the next Start_Date on the Query.The idea is that when resourcing trainers I know how long it is since and how long it is till their next holiday.The sql for the query is
Code:
SELECT Resourcing.Start_Date, Resourcing.Trainer_Name, Resourcing.Duration, Time.Hours, [Hours]/7.4 AS Days
FROM (Resourcing INNER JOIN Employees ON Resourcing.Trainer_Name = Employees.Trainer_Name) INNER JOIN [Time] ON Resourcing.Duration = Time.Time
WHERE (((Resourcing.Start_Date) Between DateSerial(Year(Date())-IIf(Month(Date())<4,1,0),4,1) And DateSerial(Year(Date())+IIf(Month(Date())>3,1,0),3,31)) AND ((Resourcing.Activity) Like "Holiday*"))
ORDER BY Resourcing.Start_Date;
How can I create an alert message to tell the user that there are an existing work order number in the table? I don't want it to restrict the entry, just inform the user that there is an existing work order number, do they want to continue.
Btw, the code will be attached to a combo box (cbowonum).
I have a form that has several text boxes that correspond to a cell in a row. One of the columns contains just numbers 1-300. Now what I need is a combo box that contains the numbers 1-300 and when one of those numbers is selected I need it to import all the information from the same row into the correct text boxes.
For example when the number 3 is selected it will take the row with the number 3 in it, take all of the cells and import them into the right text box.
I am using MS Access 2007 and have a report which display the list of values (say 10 fields) from the basic SELECT * FROM table query.
I need to dynamically set the BOLD based on the particular value for the fifth field which was assigned from Query. if it doesn't match it should display normal.
E.g If Field_5 = "Agent" then Field_5.FontBold = True Else Field_5.FontBold = False End if
I tried the aforementioned code and it dont work. ALso i tried achieve it using below listed options.
I have a continuous form with a text field that says "Select". There are two other fields, one of which is Brand. When the Brand Combo box has nothing in it I want the text box to appear (instructing the user to select a Brand) But once the user selects a Brand and goes to the next records, I would like the "Select" in only that record to become not visible. I tried conditional formatting but can't apply that to an unbound control ( or at least it is grayed out when I select the text box) and any other possible solutions I have found changes all of the selects - not only the one in the changed record.
Trying to pull information from a text box on double click to populate a combobox on another form...
keeps coming up "type mismatch"
I call lngAccount as recognised on mouseover... ("Business Account" is the value I want)
I can't get it to work!
For info, the form I'm calling from is a subform located FrmMainMenu/FrmAccountsMainMenu and the control source is [Account]
the form I wish to populate in on FrmTransactions (it is a main form only) and the combobox is cboaccountselect - **I've seen the obvious mistake with no reference to this whatsoever, corrected it, and still not working**
I am in the process of (attempting) to develop a database and application for Parking & Violation Management. I have two tables at this point: "Parking Registration" and "Violations" that are linked by a "Permit #". I have developed a form that will allow the officer to enter either the "Permit" or the "Licence Plate" of a vehicle to run a "Vehicle Check" query to produce specific information for the vehicle in question; which is what I wanted, kind of... The problem is that the resulting data pops up in "table" format, and contains multiple fields, making review of the data difficult due to its lengthy, linear nature. Is there a way to have those results appear in text boxes either on a separate form or the "Vehicle Check" form itself?
In my Access 2010 database there is a form with a large number of checkboxes enabling me to select/deselect certain record details.
Each click on one of the checkboxes triggers a VBA routine setting true/false values in one of several tables linked to the main table.
A query over all records is filtered by the true/false values of the linked tables and the resulting set of records is displayed in the (continuous) form.
The header of the form contains a text field with the value "=GetRecCount()" displaying (correctly, but randomly fast) the number of records selected:
Code: Function GetRecCount() As String Dim NumRecs As Long Dim rs As Object On Error Resume Next Set rs = Forms![Super Search].RecordsetClone rs.MoveLast NumRecs = rs.RecordCount Set rs = Nothing GetRecCount = Format(NumRecs, "##,###") End Function
Now, the funny thing is that each click on one of the boxes results in 1 call of the VBA routine setting table values, but 21 calls (!) of the text field "=GetRecCount()" in the form. I have established this by incrementing a public variable at each pass.
Why a field in a form is updated 21 times when a filter is applied?
I have created Form1 with a button and after I click the button Form2 appears (frm_Rollover_Progress). Form2 is a (poor mans) progress indicator that makes some labels visible after a section of a query has run. I have set the first label on the form to Me.lblProgress1.Visible = True but I keep coming up with Compile Error - Method or data member not found. However, when I put a button on the second form and copy in the exact same code then Me.Label1.Visible = True works. I have tried to SetFocus to an item on Form2 but still does not work.
'Open progress form to show progress indicator DoCmd.OpenForm "frm_Rollover_Progress", acNormal, , , acFormReadOnly
I have a perplexing problem. I'm creating a simple db to enter borrower audit checklist data with the following tables:
Questions -- A list of 17 pre-defined audit questions, with fields QNum and Question Audits -- One record for each audit (pk AuditKey is an Autonumber), and some borrower fields AuditQuestions -- Linked to Audits, with pk of AuditKey and Qnum, and a Question and Answer (yes/no) field
The Audits form has the Audits table as its datasource, and an AuditQuestions subform. When I go to a new Audits record, there are initially no subform records attached. When I enter a borrower name, the field AfterUpdate event runs the following code:
Code: INSERT INTO AuditQuestions ( AuditKey, QNum, Question ) SELECT [Forms]![Audits]![AuditKey] AS Keyval, Questions.QNum, Questions.Question FROM Questions ORDER BY Questions.QNum;
I start out with both Audits and AuditQuestions tables empty. When I run the code by entering a borrower name, I get, "... can't append all the records in the append query ... didn't add 17 records due to key violations". It acts like it's getting a null value from Forms!Audits!Auditkey, but if I select the Debug option and check the value from the Immediate pane, it shows a valid number. Also, if I run the query manually with the form open, it loads the questions correctly.
The first Audits record is loaded with questions in the subform so you can see the desired results. To see the problem, go to a new record, enter a name, and hit tab. Another piece to the puzzle is, if you do this on an existing record, it works fine: Click No in response to the error message that appears, then click End on the Debug message. Go to a different audit record, then come back to the one you just created. Change the name, and it works correctly. It's as if it doesn't know what the AuditKey is the 1st time, but if you check it in debugger, it is loaded. In fact, I put in code in the AfterUpdate event to plug the LoanNumber field with the Forms!Audits!Auditkey value, and it worked, but the subsequent query still failed.
We have a survey form we are trying to get some information from, and I think I need a loop to get the information, but there isn't a ton of information that I have found for what I need to do.
I have a six question survey that has a range of answers and a comments section (I didn't write the survey):
I have a simple query that will separate out the overall Positive and Negative reviews. The overall "Positive" or "Negative" ranking is manually assigned via a combo box on a form from a value list. Poor comments in the comments field can equate to a negative survey, even if questions 1-6 are neutral or better (good, very good, etc.)
What we would like to do is to poll through the responses to the survey and see how many of question 1-6 are consistently receiving Neutral or lower marks.
In my head, it makes sense to count through all the surveys and get a number of those responses. The response table (tblResponses) is setup with a combo box from a look up table that has the above responses. Actually, there are two lookup tables for this...one for question one, and one for questions two - six.
I am using Access 2007. Second, I am using two tables, Inventory and Service Request. Inventory is a list all the Inventory, with has things like location (building & room number), type (desktop, laptop, etc.) and access tag number. Service Request also has Access Tag Number (should link back to Inventory) & date of reported/resolved problem and description of problem/solution.
On my form for Service Request, I have the access tag number as a fill text box, when you double click on that text box, it runs a Query that asks for the 1) Building, 2) Room Number & 3) Type . . . Query currently opens in a the spread sheet view that shows those three things but also the Access Tag Number associated to them.
I would like that Access Tag Number to just return into the field that was double click to start the query.
We need to move rich text from an Access memo field to a Word text box. So far the best Ive been able to come up with is in the code below. In this code pprs!What is a record set field of a table memo field that is bound to a text box enabled for rich text. The rich text seems to be stored as html as so I can get word to convert it by enclosing it in html tags.
Dim What As Word.Shape Set What = doc.Shapes.AddTextbox(msoTextOrientationHorizontal , doc.PageSetup.LeftMargin, 225, 534, 0) Dim sPath As String sPath = "G:Temp.html" Open sPath For Output As 1 Print #1, "<HTML>" & pprs!What & " </HTML>" Close #1 What.TextFrame.TextRange.InsertFile (sPath)
I've can do this on excel but don't know how in Access. I'm calculating bonuses. My table has salaries, and my query simply multiples each salary amount by a % to get the bonus amount. But I need to calculate adjustments to the bonuses using the sum total of the bonuses my query calculated:
Salary (from table) Bonus (calc'd by query) Adjustment (to be calced)
100,000 1,000 Sum of total bonuses/salary*4% 90,000 900
How do I capture the total of my calculated bonus column to use to calculate the adjustments in my right-most column?
I am trying to create a report that will show me any record that does NOT have a specific field met. I have a basic query set up to display the information desired, but need it to refine the search to just the records missing a specific part in a different table. The missing information does not have to be shown in the report.
I have a searchable form that display information on agreements other companies have with us. If a company requests an inspection we have 30 days to go out and complete it.
I am trying to create a message box that will display all inspections that are due within 5 days when the form loads. No luck so far, only broken dreams.
Is it possible for message boxes to use expressions and display information that fits the criteria?
I've read over and over that calculated data is bad, that's fine with me... but here is my dillema...
I have four fields that interact with my calculation in a single form. There is only one table in the database.
AmountF (The stored data in the table) (amount financed) FC (calculated by =[amountf]*.25) (finance charge) Amount Paid (used in calculation of total due) total due (calculated by =[amountf]+[fc]-[amount paid])
The math already works, everything works. I can choose to print the form and it looks great. However, I would like for it to (when I'm done printing the form) somehow save the total due data to the AmountF column in the table. AmountF is in the same line as all the other information, so I would like it to not create a new record just update the old one.
All four of these fields have a text box in the form for themselves.
I'm trying to search a for string within a subform to find information stored on the mainform to which the particular subform belongs.
The problem is that the subform is generated from a query which uses a number from the main form to generate.
So the subform record is only generated when the correct mainform record associated with it is loaded.
Now to solve my problem I've made a new query that brings up ALL the results that could be generated by the main form and from that I can search to find my search term I'm after and read off the ID number to tie it back to the mainform.
But all of this is done manually, I want a way to do all this using VBA in a way that the user can't edit any records as they are doing it.
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 .
I am trying to make use of the OpenForm command to open a form to a record where a textbox matches the value of a text box on another form.
On Form1, I have a textbox called txtRtnRef, and it contains a reference number in a similar format to SWR-9
On Form2, I have a textbox called txtReOrderRef (control source ReOrderRef) which also contains a reference number in the same format (SWR-9)
I am trying to have a button next to the text box on Form1 that has an OnClick Event that opens Form2 to the record containing the same text reference number.I have tried, to no avail, a number of variations of the OpenForm command, the most recent being
I have made a form based on a query that pulls information from 4-5 tables. I would like to be able to change information in those 4-5 tables by using that form, but I am unable to do it. I opened up the properties for the form and set "data entry" and "Allow edits" and "allow additions" and "allow subtractions" all to YES. That didn't help.
Is it possible to do this, since the form is based on a query? I couldn't figure out a good way to set up the form getting the information directly from the four tables. I'm not sure why it's been so difficult.
I have one table full of all of the various titles I have. The tables are related using those titles, and each table has a different sort of information for each record. So, the "main" table is "ALL TITLES," but when I go make a form, I can't get ALL TITLES to be the controlling table. It's very frustrating. But a query works beautifully--I just can't change anything.
(I would like to have the form be a "user-friendly" way for people to make changes.)
I have a Form Display Data in my Access Database, which is working really well. However, users was asking if there is a way we can make Font Color Could/would change if The text in A field or Any field in my display form contained the word "SAD or MAD". Is there code for such thing in display form?..

I want to return a value from a separate query and have that show up in a field on my main form. The field name from the query is "Six Month Date" and the query name is "DT6Monthqry". I want to return the value displayed in the"Six Month Date" from the query, matching the CustomerID in the query result to the CustomerID that is being displayed on the main form. The CustomerID is a text field.This is the code I placed in the Control Source property for the field I want to be displayed on the main form:
