main - [Welders fm],
2nd level - [PipingQualificationTickets tbl Subform]
3rd level - [WelderWps fm] This is a pop up form but is related to the 2nd level formVBA Error
I have a dropdown box [Wps] (3rd Level PopUp) with an after update function to lookup a query [DLookUpWeldWPS Qy] and insert the text into [Wps(s)QualifiedFor] on the 2 level [PipingQualificationTickets tbl Subform]
Here is the code,
Forms![Welders fm]![PipingQualificationTickets tbl Subform].Form![Wps(s)] = DLookup("[Wps(s)QualifiedFor]", "[DLookUpWeldWPS Qy]", "[WelderWps tbl]![QualificationID] = " & Nz(Forms![Welders fm]![PipingQualificationTickets tbl Subform].Form![WelderWps fm]![QualificationID], 0))
I am getting an error - You entered an expression that has an invalid reference to the property form/report

Modules & VBA :: Delete All Charters On The Right Side Of Last Comma
Jan 25, 2014Raw data
aaa, bb, ccc, dd
or
aa, bbb, cc
I want field1 to be
aaa, bb, ccc
or
aa, bbb
This drops everything to the right of the 1st comma
field1 would = dd
or cc
Code:
Me.field1 = (Right([field1], (InStr(1, [field1], ",") - 1)))
This drops everything from the 1st comma on the left to the end.
field 1 would = aaa
or aa
Code:
Me.field1 = (Left([field1], (InStr(1, [field1], ",") - 1)))
Modules & VBA :: Changing Image Path - Set Picture Property Of Image
Dec 4, 2014I have a form that I would like to update a picture on using VBA. The source of the picture path is in part a query that is not bound to the form. So far I have the following code that is pretty much working, but with a couple flaws.
Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
LoadDefaultPicture
End Sub
Sub LoadDefaultPicture()
Dim db As DAO.Database
[Code] ....
This is working. However, when I change the record the picture flashes the current picture once and then loads the new picture. It is like it reloads the current picture then loads the new one. I'm hoping there is a way to get rid of the flash.
Also, the code fails here:
strDefaultPictureName = rs.Fields("AttachmentName")
When the query does not return a record. I can definitely fix this by adding an if statement to check for a record, but I'm kind of perplexed at why it is failing at that line. I would expect it to assign an empty string to that variable name and then fail on the next command where I try and set the ".Picture" property of the image.
Help.. I Got This Error: "an Expression That Has An Invalid Reference To The Property
Sep 1, 2005I have three forms that are related to each other. When i click on a button on the second form I get this error: an expression that has an invalid reference to the property form/report. But why do I get this error??
At the third form I have two sub forms.This code are in the first sub form: Segment_subform.
Sub Form_Current()
Dim ParentDocName As String
On Error Resume Next
ParentDocName = Me.Parent.Name
If Err <> 0 Then
GoTo Form_Current_Exit
Else
On Error GoTo Form_Current_Err
Me.Parent![Blokk_Subform].Form.Requery
End If
I think it's something wrong with
Me.Parent![Blokk_Subform].Form.Requery. It doesn't recognize blokk_Subform.
Somebody knows..???? Please help me....
Changing Property Settings By Code
Dec 2, 2006This is getting into some stratospheric territory for me.
I am trying to change the visibility property of a label and corresponding text box, based on the contents of a different combo box. cboHow is a combo box that uses a value list as its row source, since the content of the list won't change. There are three fields that I need when the content of cboHow = "FIS". Otherwise I don't need them and I don't want to see them. My code is below:
Private Sub txtFISDepartmentNumber_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If cboHow <> "FIS" Then
lblFISDepartmentNumber.Visible = False
txtFISDepartmentNumber.Visible = False
Else: lblFISDepartmentNumber.Visible = True
txtFISDepartmentNumber.Visible = True
End Sub
At the moment there is no error code, but the label and text field don't respond by becoming visible/invisible when the contents of cboHow changes. Do I put this code with the txtFISDepartmentNumber or in cboHow? and do I use BeforeUpdate or AfterUpdate? Should I have a separate If..Then..Else for the label and the text box?
I have been playing around with this for several hours now and seem to be going in circles.

I Need To Change The Enabled Property After Changing Records
Nov 23, 2005Hi Guys,
i have a problem i hope some one can help me with.
i have a form with a sub form on it, and i want to disable everything until the user clicks a 'edit' button to allow the information to be changed.
i am just testing it at the moment, so i set one text box's enabled property to false. then i added a button with an on click event with the following code:
Me!userid.Enabled = True
when i start the form, the userid box is disabled and when i click on the edit button, it enables it fine.
however, when i change to the next record, the userid box remains enabled. i cant find where to put the code to set it back to false everytime i change the record.
i should also let you know i am a beginner, so please be gentle!
Modules & VBA :: Skipping Controls On Validation Check Before Update
Oct 8, 2013I'm working on a code that checks all blank/null text fields and combo boxes in a form and notifies the user if a field is not filled. The code below works if all fields are required, but I can't use it on forms that have fields that are not really mandatory. I've read somewhere on the net to use tags on the controls i want to skip checking, but that's where i get lost.
Code:
Dim stdResponse As Variant
Dim ctl As Control
' Enumerate Controls collection.
For Each ctl In Me.Controls
' Check to see if control is text box

Update A Table When Changing Data In Another Table
Dec 2, 2013I have a training Database in Access 2010 that I am creating. I have "courseindex" which is the table that has course titles and the course required frequency. I also have "trainingcompleted" which is the table that contains all training my employees have completed. The form "training" contains employee data and all training each employee has completed.
On the form "training", the training completed is selected from a combo box, which is pulled from the table "courseindex". When I update the combo box, I would like the training frequency field that corresponds to the selected training to auto fill in my "trainingcompleted" table.
Once completed I should be able to generate a report, where the user enters a date range and it will tell me who is due for training within that time frame. I have the forms, tables, and reports set up. I can enter the next due data in manually each time I update a record, but I would rather that data be updated automatically, since the frequency for each training will never change. I have over forty courses that employees must take. Some courses are required annually, some bi-annually, some every five years, etc...

Forms :: Invalid Control Property - Control Source
Sep 24, 2013I added a new field to one of my tables and query, but when I try to add a control for that field into my form it is not recognising it and the field isn't appearing in the sources for the form, even though the table is sourced to the form? Or am I going to have to do the usual and redo the entire form because I made a minor adjustment?
View 1 Replies View RelatedReports :: Changing Visible Property Of Blank Image Fields In A Report
Dec 8, 2014My student is doing a project on question paper generation in which he selects questions from each lesson needed and also some of these questions have images associated with them. So, if these questions are selected, the image control in the report displays it.
If there is no image, the space for the control is left in tact. I tried changing the visible property for the image control in the Detail_Format event procedure. But this code is not reached at all and the space is still left. I am not storing the image directly in the field but its path in a text field.
I want that the space occupied by the image control removed. I tried the suppression thing but obviously it did not work.
Want Check Box On Switchboard Form To Set A Text Box's Visible Property In A Report
Sep 23, 2004On my switchboard form, I have a check box which the user can check to make a text box (which appears in several different reports) visible and uncheck to make it invisible. The text box in the reports has the same name on all of them.
I am having trouble making this work.
I can think of two solutions, but haven't had success with either yet.
1. I could simply change the visible property of the report(s) control from the form. This works if the report is open, but throws an error if the report is not open.
Code:Public Sub showNumOrgsInReportCB_AfterUpdate()If Me!showNumOrgsInReportCB.Value = 0 ThenReports![publishZipR]![numOrgsF].Visible = FalseElseReports![publishZipR]![numOrgsF].Visible = TrueEnd IfEnd Sub
Is there a property or function I can use to test whether the report is open before I set the text box visibility?
2. Alternatively, a less elegant solution would be to run an event procedure to close all open reports. This would eliminate that issue, but I haven't gotten the code to work yet:
Code:Public Sub showNumOrgsInReportCB_AfterUpdate() Dim rpt As Report ' Enumerate Reports collection.For Each rpt In ReportsDoCmd.Close rpt.nameNext rptEnd Sub
This line:
DoCmd.Close rpt.name
throws a Run-time Error '13', Type mismatch.
How do I fix that?
I'm open to better ideas!
Thanks
Modules & VBA :: Changing Linked Table Paths
Sep 3, 2014I'm trying to change the table links to a password protected BE DB. I found an example online, which I adapted to my needs. When I set it up to fail to find the normal BE it seems to work as intended until it gets to the line "Tdf.RefreshLink". Then it crashes with a 3031 "Not a valid password" error. The code is:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Dim Dbs As Database
Dim Tdf As TableDef
Dim Tdfs As TableDefs
Dim NewPathname As String
[Code] ....
I can't find any references or example to relinking a password protected table.

Modules & VBA :: Check Length Of A Field Value In The Table
Jul 29, 2015I have a table that stores ID,PolicyNumber,NewPolNo fields.It has millions of records. The field NewPolNo is empty. I need vba code that will check the following for each record:
1. If the length of the PolicyNumber is over 14 characters long then store that PolicyNumber value in NewPolNo field.
2. If the length of the PolicyNumber is less than 14 characters long thenagain store that PolicyNumber value in NewPolNo field.
3. But if the length of the policyNumber equals to 14 digits long then check the following:
a) If the last 7 digits are 0's of that PolicyNumber. If yes then store first 7 digits in NewPolNo field.
b) If the last 7 digits are not 0's then store the whole PolicyNumber value in NewPolNo field.
We need to check these conditions for each record of the table.
Changing Colors With Check Boxes
Feb 21, 2005I have a simple form with 3 check boxes. I want to write a vb code that will change the color of a box if a box is selected.
Table Name: tbl_main
Form Name: frm_color
Field Names: [check_red] [check_blue] [check_yellow]
Box Names: 'box_red' 'box_blue' 'box_yellow' (all currently translucent)
If someone checks the [check_red] field I want the 'box_red' to go from translucent background to a red background, and when unchecked to go back to translucent. Same with the Blue & Yellow boxes.
I have made a simple database and attached it for an example. Thank you all.
Tables :: Invalid Field Definition - Not Able To Set Up Cascade Update
Jun 9, 2014(named: Invalid Field Definition - Unable to set up cascade update but I have done what the moderator advised and have not been able to fix a very similar problem.
I have planned a database and must adhere to the plan or change it and basically I initially said that I would like to enforce referential integrity to synchronise my tables and I would also like to cascade update and delete to save input time because changes will be automated between table (where fields are connected.).
I have attached a plan I did if that makes the purpose of my database clearer.I have attached my database and have established the relationships* without referential integrity enforced I would like between my tables but don't know how to make them one-to-many relationships nor can I enable cascade update or cascade delete or enforce referential integrity.
I am new to databases (and to this forum) and have been promised by my line manager that I won't have to specialise, I don't think I have created the relationships but they are supposed to be between Vehicle ID and Hire Number, and Customer ID and Hire Number.

Modules & VBA :: DLookup - Check 2 Criteria In Two Different Columns In Same Table
Dec 2, 2013I would like to make a DLookup that check 2 criteria in two different columns in the same table. The reason to use a DLookup is that I would like to check if two parts already have been linked together. The user therefore selects two values in to different comboboxes (lstLinkPart and lstLinkToPart). In this case the value of the first combobox is column: ComponentPN in tblProductLinkComponent. For the second (lstLinkToPart) column ProductPN, in the same table, has to be checked.
If both values from the comboboxes match the values in both (and only) columns I don't want to continue and made a code to be executed.
I found multiple examples on the internet for using multiple criteria but something similar to what I require.

Modules & VBA :: Check If Column D Value Is Present In Access Table Ref Field
Oct 14, 2014I am designing a project in which there is a form and on that form there is a textbox and Browse button. With browse button you can select a file from the dialog box and that file path will appear in the textbox. This part has been done as below:
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
ChooseFile
End Sub
Sub ChooseFile()
Dim fd As FileDialog
Set fd = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
[Code] ....
Now the next Part i.e Part2 in which we have to see the references present in Column D of the "Summary" worksheet of the workbook whose path is present in textbox1 and check if they match with any of the references in field "Ref" of the Access table named tblLiterature.
If value in column D matches with Ref field of the Access table then change the status field of the Access table to the corresponding columns A,B,C named as "Withdrawn","Obsolete","Updated". that means if the column A of the corresponding Reference is Y then change the status field to "Withdrawn". If column B is Y then change the status to "Obsolete" and if column C is Y then change the status to "Updated".
Please see attached the workbook as this kind of workbook will be searched against Access table .
Modules & VBA :: Insert Two Values From A Form In Table And Check If They Already Exist
Jan 27, 2015I'm trying to write some Code with the target to take a value from a textbox (out of a form) and a pregiven value (in this case = 2) and enter them in a new record in a table. But only if there is not already a record with the exact same combination of these to values. When done, the same button should proceed you to the next form (but this code is not already implemented in the fragment below) even if no values are added because they already exist in this combination.
Code:
Public Function GetID_PatientStudiesGroup&()
GetID_PatientStudiesGroup = [Forms]![frm_PatientStudiesGroupTZP]![ID_PatientStudiesGroup]
End Function
Private Sub BPRS_T1_Button_Click()
Call GetID_PatientStudiesGroup&
Dim strSQL As String
[Code] ....
As you can see, I tried to use a function to refer to the value out of the form, because I didn't find out how to refer to a form in an SQL Code.
Just to give you a better overview: The table where the information should be added is named "tbl_PatientStudiesGroupTZP". The form where you find the Textbox "ID_PatientStudiesGroup" (with the value I need to transport) is named "frm_PatientStudiesGroupTZP". Every part (except the WHERE NOT EXISTS part) worked perfectly for itself, but not when thrown together.
