Modules & VBA :: Close Form With Another Form Saving Record First
Jul 30, 2015
I have a timer form which closes the database after a period of time with DoCmd.Quit. Another form is open at this point but if a user has left it in the middle of editing it I want to be able to save the record in the other form and close it before the timer form closes the database.
What VBA do I need in the timer form to save the record and close the other form before DoCmd.Quit? Just to be clear the code is...
Private Sub Form_Timer()
On Error Resume Next
Me.Tag = Val(Me.Tag) - (Me.TimerInterval / 1000)
Me.Caption = "The database will exit in " & Me.Tag & " seconds"
If Val(Me.Tag) <= 0 Then
I have a form I would like to close without saving the record using a button. here is the code I have but it closes the form and it also writes the record to the table.
Code: Private Sub ClosewoSave_Click() Cancel = True Me.Undo DoCmd.close DoCmd.OpenForm "frmMenu" End Sub
I found in a thread that Cancel = True would not write the record.
I have a form frmAddNewProject that is a Data Entry form.When you click Add Project on the form, it creates folders and copies files to a location and also creates new record(s) in the ProjectT table with appropriate information.Here is my code:
Code:
Private Sub cmdAdd_Click() Dim FSO As Object Dim FromPath As String Dim ToPath As String Dim FolderPath As String Dim strType As String Dim strYear As String Dim strGPN As String
[code]....
Everything works fine till here. Now I would like to close the form but closing it gives me an additional empty record.
Code:
Dim ctl As Control On Error Resume Next For Each ctl In Me.Controls ctl = ctl.DefaultValue Next Set ctl = Nothing
to remove all values, but then it just adds an empty record.Is there a way to close that form without removing my legitimate new records and without adding empty ones?
I have a form and one of the fields is a drop down box with autofill. If I enter an information that it is new, it doesn't show in the drop down box even after I click on the Save button I created on the form. In order to show up, I need to close the form, then reopen it again. I am running this particular drop down box from a query in order to facilitate the autofill and because it also automatically fill other fields when the information has been already entered. I also tried linking the drop down box directly to the table instead of the query, but it did not worked. So basically my main problem is that in order for the new information to appear in the drop down box I need to close the form and reopen it. Any ideas what can I do here? Thanks
I have a form to add a record to a table. How can I give the user a way to close this form without saving the just created record.
I tried
If me.dirty then DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord endif
This works, but gives a messagebox in return to confirm the command, and I don't want that. And I try to avoid sendkeys. I also don't want to change the options of access.
I need to save a single record (preferably the current record) as a PDF. I have created a form for my boss to calculate bids. He wants to save each record individually as a PDF to upload into our service software program to attach to client files. I can save a selected record as a PDF if I print the selected record first. We need to eliminate having to print it first as it is just a waste of paper and an unnecessary step. I am kind of thinking that VBA and attaching that to a control button on the form is the way to go, but I am new to writing code and I am completely confused!
I have a split form that's like a list of pending tasks. The data source is a linked SharePoint 2013 list where users submit requests. The user takes the information from each record and performs an action. When it is done, the user presses a button and the task status changes from "Pending" to "Processed". The form record source is based on a query that finds only records with a status of "Pending" so when the user changes the status of the task, it is removed from the list. It works fine except when there is only one task left in the work list. If the user processes the last task, the form refreshes and it goes to a new empty record and I get an error message that says I must enter a value into one of the required fields. I tried making the field non-required but it just creates an empty record in the table.
I am using the method from allen browne [URL] .... to open a form and add it to a collection and when removing it it closes. actually, usually it does work so but i have now a form which does not close until i am hitting the reset button in VBE , is there something i could check why it's not functioning as desired ?
Just to add, this form has a subForm as well (might be the cause ?)
I am trying to open a form in design mode and add controls, this i have done. I am doing this all in a class, and am having trouble saving the modified form.
I have tried using the following, both produce errors
on a form with several subforms i have ran into some trouble. I have the subforms use code to determine if a scrollbar is needed. As a recordselector I use a listbox on the main form.
When i close the mainform, it sometimes makes a popup box appear saying that there is no current record.
Sofar I have determined the following :
- Removing the code from the form, removes the error.
- The code is only executed when selected records in the listbox have related record(s)
- The error only occurs when the code is executed at least once and the last selected record has no related record(s)
I dont know if altering the code would have any success, cause it won't run anyway when I select the last record (with no related records).
I guess moving the code to another section would be better, but I've tried other options like 'on focus' etc, but could not find one that responded.
HELP PLZ :)
Private Sub Form_Current() On Error GoTo Error
'kijken of verticale scrollbar nodig is maxRegels = 14
Dim rstCount As DAO.Recordset Set rstCount = Me.Recordset If rstCount.RecordCount > maxRegels Then Me.Form.ScrollBars = 2 Else Me.Form.ScrollBars = 0 End If
Error: If Err.Number <> "0" Then Else MsgBox Err.Number & " " & Err.Description End If Exit Sub
End Sub
ps. I've tried to catch err.Number = "3021" in the Error: section, but without success
I have a form I want to close but somehow the codes running before it cancel it out before my closing code can run.
Here is the full code for the form.
Code: 'Check for Null Fields If IsNull(Me.cmb_to_customer) Or IsNull(Me.cmb_from_customer) Then MsgBox ("Please enter a TO CUSTOMER and FROM CUSTOMER to continue.") Cancel = True
[Code] .....
This is the ending code that will not run:
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' 'Continue or Not, If yes then wipe all fields, If no then exit form If MsgBox("Do you want to log-in/transfer more batteries?", vbOKCancel, "BATTERY LOG-IN/TRANSFER") = vbCancel Then DoCmd.Close acForm, "FRM_LOGIN" Else Me.cmb_from_customer = Null
I have a simple EXIT command button that runs these macro actions: save record, close form. I also have a SAVE command button that runs this macro action: save record. If a user closes the form without clicking either the EXIT or SAVE command buttons, will the record changes be saved in the datasource table.
I have found from testing that the data is always saved even if the user does not click the EXIT or SAVE buttons, but I wanted to be absolutely certain. Is this correct ?
Hello, I have a form and I have a button so people can open records to load into the form. The problem is that whenever they close the form it updates the information in the table. How do I stop that from happening? I want the information in the table to update only when they hit the button I made (which works).
And how do I stop it from loading the record when I open the form, or maybe I can specify to load a blank record instead, how do I do that?
All i want to do is after executing the following code, close the form " EmployeeFind" on completion?
Private Sub Form_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) On Error GoTo Err_Form_DblClick Dim stDocName As String Dim Msg, Style, Title, Response Msg = "Employee allocated to Job" Style = vbOKCancel + vbInformation Title = "Employee moved" ' Define title. Response = MsgBox(Msg, Style, Title) If Response = vbOK Then
In the main form I have a list box, when I right click on each item on list box another form "frmshortcut" (pop up) will be open in the position of mouse that shows a list box for selecting items according to below code, now I would like when select another place (except "frmshortcut"), this form automatically will be close, like what we have in shortcut list of windows. Now when right click it is opened in the location of mouse click, but problem is, it is not closed automatically when click in other places of main form.
Option Explicit Private Type POINTAPI x As Long y As Long End Type Private Declare Function GetCursorPos Lib "user32" (lpPoint As POINTAPI) As Long Private mp As [*clsMousePosition]
I have a subform that is used in multiple other forms. I wish to have a command button that will close whichever main form the subform is in. Is there some way I can make an if statement that is something like the following?
If (main form = A) then Close (form A) ElseIf (main form = B) then Close (form B) etc. End if
Unfortunately the button has to be in the subform, not the main form (which would be easier). The purpose of the button is to delete the current records that are open and then close the form. The catch is that the subform is the parent record to the main form, so the command has to originate from the subform so that the cascade delete works properly.
I have a problem when I close a form to stop it from closing if a date is not filled in.
If the field "Case_Status" is filled in with "response received" and the date field "response_received_date" is blank, it shows a message and fils in the text box with red background.
It simply fails to keep the form from closing till the date is filled in. Code I have so far:
Private Sub CloseForm_Click() If Me.Case_Status = "response received" And IsNull(Me.response_received__date_) Then Me.response_received__date.BackColor = RGB(255, 0, 0) MsgBox ("Please fill in manatory fields!!!") DoCmd.CancelEvent Else DoCmd.Close End If End Sub
my code does the following, user selects excel file, opens it, renames sheets, basically needs first sheet to be sheet1. rest don't matter Changes the formats in column a to number and 15dp, saves the file as .xls and then links the file to the database.
Code: Private Sub Command288_Click() Dim s As String Dim i As Long
Hi could someone point me in the right direction for this one,
I have a series of linked tabbed Forms. One of the Forms is mostly populated by Combo boxes which all work fine. My problem occurs when you go to add a new record and populate the form with the combo boxes but decide for some reason not to save the record but exit the form using the Close form command button or by using the close button at the top of the Form. Access seems to Save the record anyway. I have placed an Undo Cmd on the form to clear all text boxes which works fine but it does not stop a user from closing or exiting a Form by another means and stop them saving that incomplete record.
I would be grateful for any thoughts on how to solve this problem.
I have a popup called by a subform to add a new record or edit a selected record. I keep getting "Runtime error 32502". The value you entered isn't valid for the field "|"
I have no required fields and all the drop down related fields have the right value type in them (That I can find)The only "|" reference I can find is in the OpenArgs content below when I load the form. If I'm adding a new record I pass two fileds via the OpenArgs
Private Sub Command52_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "AddDebtorPaymentFrm", , , , acFormAdd, OpenArgs:=Me![DebtorId] & "|" & Me![MatterId] End Sub
or if I'm modifying a record from the subform on click I
Private Sub Text38_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "AddDebtorPaymentFrm", acNormal, , "[Transactions].[TransId] = " & Me.TransId, acFormEdit End Sub
Below is the Popup Load code
Private Sub Form_Load() If Me.DataEntry = True Then Me.VariableHeading = "Add A Debtor Payment"
I have a form that I need to use to add new clients to a table in my database, lets call it tblClients. On this form I have a combo box which, when selected, will drop down with the first and last names of all clients in tblClients, as well as their Client ID. Once you select a client from the drop down menu, it populates all of the fields in the form with that clients info (Client ID, fname, lname, address, phone number, etc. etc.).
I need two other things on this form: one button that will save or modify whatever current record is currently pulled up, and one button that will start the process for entering a new client, so basically it would blank out all of the fields and fill the Client ID field with the current number +1.
As of right now I have the form made and the combo box works, in that I have 3 dummy clients in the tblClients and when I select each client from the combo box it will populate the fields on the form with the info. I'm using some simple VBA on the combo box such as
Me.FirstName = Me.cboBox.Column(1)
and that seems to all work, but the problem is trying to save/modify data to tblClients. The only record in the actual table that gets modified seems to be the first record. For example, if I pull up client with ID #3 and change his address or phone number, what happens when I click to save the changes it takes client ID #3 record, overrides it with client ID #1, and then client ID #3 is the same as client ID #1 except with the old information. I'm not quite sure why this is happening.
I have to write a code in a form so that if nobody is doing any activity for 5 minutes then after 5 minutes automatically press Close button named BtnClose in that form.
