Modules & VBA :: Code For Specific Lookup Selected
Jul 17, 2013
An if statement which will disable out a field depending on which type of field is selected from a separate lookup.I know that is confusing, so let me explain with an example. If I have a lookup field connected to "Vegetables", "Fruits" and "Nuts". If the user selects a "Vegetable" from the lookup field, I need another field disabled, for example sake, "What fruit did you buy?". If the user selected a "Fruit" from the lookup, "What fruit did you buy?" would be enabled.
I know how to enable and disable fields, but it is the If Statement. How would you specify an If statement to specifically look at which category of a lookup is selected?The lookup is not static. So going with our example, the user can add more fruits, vegetables, and nuts as desired, so simply specifying the IDs for the available options will not work. The If statement needs to encompass the category.

I am new to access. I have the following code to lookup associated fields with a CourseNumber that is selected from a combobox. The information is then stored in a CourseEnrollment table linked to student info.
The CourseNumber and associated fields are located in a LU_CoursesOffered table. The LU_Courses Offered table has been populated by choosing associated data from combo boxes based on other LU tables.
I am getting the primary keys returned for the associated data rather than the text stored with that key.
Private Sub Combo103_AfterUpdate()
CourseName = DLookup("CourseName", "LU_CoursesOffered", "CollegCourseNum = " & Nz([CollegeCourseNum], 0))
LevelSection = DLookup("LevelSection", "LU_CoursesOffered", "CollegeCourseNum = " & Nz([CollegeCourseNum], 0))
AcadGrad = DLookup("AcadGrad", "LU_CoursesOffered", "CollegeCourseNum = " & Nz([CollegeCourseNum], 0))
Instructor = DLookup("Instructor", "LU_CoursesOffered", "CollegeCourseNum = " & Nz([CollegeCourseNum], 0))
End Sub

I have a form (Student Details) that has an unbound lookup box using a query to select a student. The lookup has the hidden Student ID autonumber key field plus Class Number, Last Name, First Name, Status, sorted by Class Number (descending), Last Name, First Name.
The form record source is a similar but unsorted query.
There are nearly 1000 student records. The form has pages (tabs). The lookup box is in the form header. There are dozens of fields in the 1st Page (General) including an picture (attachment, not hyperlink) field holding a photo of the student, the other 6 pages have less.
When you select a student via the look up, at least one sometimes more students "flash" before it displays the one you want, which seems to display twice before it stops.
I deleted the picture field to see what difference that made, because it seemed to do the most flashing, and indeed, without that field you go right to the record. I looked at the Student table indexes and it seems that field type is not index-able, which is understandable.
Is there any way to improve this with still leaving the photos as attachments? Some thoughts:
It improves if it is displayed first as an Icon or Paper Clip, and probably would if a hyperlink field, but we like to have the picture displayed and not have to open the link to see it nor worry about the location changing invalidating a link. It seems that if the record was displayed with the picture field only filled after all the other fields were filled it would make for a better impression.
Can an On Load form event VBA or Macro be written that either hold the picture back until the rest of the fields are displayed or if an icon or changed to a hyperlink to open. Would it work if the pictures were attached to a separate joined table?

I'm not an advanced user of Microsoft Access 2010, I've been working on a database for a company that does Non Destructive Testing, so my task is to simplify how the technicians process the information and make their jobs easier.
Firstly, I have assigned a Unique Identification to a code in this case - X8120 This code is assigned to a row of information.
What i want to do is enter the code X8120 into a text-box and once the code is enter, i want the database to retrieve all information that's assigned to that code from the row (which is 17 fields) in a table.
When the information is retrieve, i want those 17 fields to automatically populate into their own text-boxes, so there would be 17. This would all be on one form. So the technician only has to enter a code which displays the information relating to the testing the technicians have done.
What i have done so far is made the table into a form and added a select button command, so a technician would click on a button that opens a form and select the row of information they want and populates those 17 fields.
So my aim is to simply enter a code or an event and the database will retrieve the information instead of going through a form to select the information. So i am simplifying the process even more.

how to read a specific line in a CSV file (using VBA), to see if the phrase "There are no records available." is present.
If it is present, then I'm going to do a debug.print stating that there are no records to load - and then the script will move on to the next file. If the phrase isn't present, then I'm going to upload the file to Access, parse the information, and then upload it to a CRM. (I already have the latter portion of the code up and running....I just need to account for the first part, where I can determine if the file has data or not).
The structure of the file never changes. The first row is composed of eight column headers (Post Date, Card Number, Card Type, Auth Date, Batch Date, Reference Number, Reason, Amount) and (if) the phrase "There are no records available." is present, it will show up on the second row, in the first column (under Post Date).

I have a query with the following structure;
aDate(pkey) cost1 cost2 cost3 calc1 calc2 calc3
01/012014 ,,,,,,,,,1,,,,,, 2,,,,,,, 3,,,,,, 1,,,,,,, 2,,,,, 3
01/02/2014 ,,,,,,,,1,,,,,, 2,,,,,,,, 3,,,,,, 2,,,,,, 4,,,,,, 6
01/03/2014,,,,,,, 1 ,,,,, 2,,,,,,, 3,,,,,,, 3,,,,,, 6 ,,,,, 9
01/04/2014 ,,,,,, 1,,,,,,,, 2,,,,,,, 3 ,,,,, 4,,,,,, 8,,,,,, 12
fields calc1,2,3 are running totals of cost1,2,3
I expect/hope to first calculate the sum of a cost field and then minus the value of its corresponding calc field from a specific record.
result = sum(cost1) - calc1 selected record value
I want to select the calc1 record from a drop down list of the primary key. Which cost field is in the equation will static/defined as I intend to make a textbox for each field.i need to know the code to pick a field(and retrieve it's value) from a record selected via dropdown list.
