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 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 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 could use xlApp.quit but I don't want anything poping up

Can anyone tell me how to have Access automatically close a report without saving any changes.
I do not mind if the user closes the report manually but do not want Access to prompt the user to save changes. I want it to automatically abandon any changes that were made.
I have a form with a child that holds a query and for 99.9% of the time remains locked as it's for viewing data only. However, if the user wishes to make a change then they need to press an unlock button first then make the changes.
The problem I have is when closing the form; if this child's query has been unlocked I'm getting a message asking do I wish to save the changes to the layout of the child's query. The answer will always be "No".
I've added the following line of code to all sorts of procedures with no success.
DoCmd.Close acQuery, "LinkTableManager_Frmqry", acSaveNo
how to stop the message appearing when the form is closed.
Hi,
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'm trying to find the Before Update event in the event builder and I cant see it anywhere.
I've seen a few different ways of achieving the same thing but so far nothings worked.
If a user adds wrong information and choses to close the form then it always saves the data. I only want it saved if the user choses to save it.
The close button I have has saving turned off but it seems the record has already been updated by that point.
The before update is in form properties, I have found it now. But I cant set the parameter 'Cancel' to True.
If I look at the forms code this is there,
Option Compare Database
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
End Sub
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 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?
Thanks in advance!

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.

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 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

Iam very new to ACCESS. So please do forgive me for
believing that the "SAVE AS" function in ACCESS is as easy as
something similar we do in Microsoft Word.
After searching this forum and others I realise that there is no easy way
and it is considered as some thing for serious users.
(with additional coding not available in ACCESS)
Perhaps there are easier ways that I am not aware of.
I would like to open a record in a FORM which has one Combo Box
for text data, several text and Numeric fields.
I then need to change a few items and save the record as a New
Record
Only a few (mostly numeric fields) and some date entries will be changed
as well as a couple of calculated fields in the NEW RECORD.
I shall appreciate any suggestion as to how to do this.
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.
Thanks in advance
