Modules & VBA :: Command Button To Delete Records In Sub And Main Forms
Jun 24, 2013
I am trying to create a command button that will delete the current records in both the subform and main form.
I know how to create a command button that will delete the current record of which ever form I'm in (either the sub or main form) but I wish to do so both at the same time with one event procedure. I currently have been experimenting with a button in the subform but I don't really care if it's in the subform or main form.
I have created a form and need to be able to delete employees from a table. I built a command button using the wizard and this is the current vb code-
Code: Private Sub cmdDeleteEmployee_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdDeleteEmployee_Click
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectRecord DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord Exit_cmdDeleteEmployee_Click: Exit Sub Err_cmdDeleteEmployee_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_cmdDeleteEmployee_Click End Sub
But when I click on the button I get a message saying it would create duplicate data in the table.
All I am trying to do is insert to have a form with a "Delete Record" button on it. The problem is I don't want anyone to be able to delete a record, I would like someone to have to insert a password to confirm the delete.
I have a columnar form with a sub-form based on an updatable query. I've created a delete button on the master form with the intention that if the user hits the delete button, it will delete the current record (like its supposed to, right?).
But what is happening is when the delete button is hit, it is asking twice for deletion confirmation and deleting the current record AND the next record. Even if I hit "Cancel" to stop the deletion, it still deletes the current and next records.
Each record has a primary unique ID that is included on the form (but not tab stopped - if that makes any difference), but it doesn't seem to be using that as the basis for deleting.
I've tried two different codes for this:
Private Sub Command110_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Command110_Click DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord Exit_Command110_Click:
Is it possible to use a command button (update) to update matching records in a form (Test)? I have a file (april.xlsx) in which the first column Cytogenetics ID (14-xxxx) is a unique identifier that matches a record in the database. The next column Result (NL-F, NL-M, F-VUS, M-VUS, A-M, A-F) and the date column next to it are what need to be updated in that record. In the database there is a field called Result that needs to be updated with the text from column 2:
NL-F and NL-M = Normal VUS-F and VUS-M = Variant of Unknown Sig. A-M and A-F = Abnormal
There is also a Final TAT Date field in the database that needs to be updated with column 3 in the spreadsheet (Final TAT Date).So basically when there is a match with column 1 in april.txt to a record in the database, the Result field in the database is updated with column 2 of april.txt and the Final TAT Date field in the database is updated with column 3 of april.txt.
Cytogenetics ID Result Final TAT Date 14-0390 Normal 4/11/2014 14-0396 Variant of Unknown Sig 4/18/2014
I have a delete query in my database which I would like to run from a command button on a switchboard. When I use the command button wizard, it does not show delete queries in the menu of available queries. If I create a command button manually I will need VBA code for the event procedure.
Can someone give me an appropriate code for running a delete query with a command button?
Private Sub DeleteRecords_Click() Dim db As Database Set db = CurrentDb db.Execute "Delete * FROM tblJune 2005 applicants;" End Sub
I am trying to delete all records from a dabase created in access. When I click the command button, I get this message: "User-defined type not defined"
I'm having problems making a command button(Ta bort från engelska till svenska) of a delete query. The name of the query is"Ta bort från engelska till svenska", which is also the name of the button on the form(huvudformulär)
Could someone please help me. I'll enclose my zipped database.
Good Evening, I wonder if anyone could help me please......... I have found Ghudsons attached ‘Browsing2’ example to be of enormous benefit/use to me when I have been creating various Databases, however I was wondering whether Ghudson or any other kind person(s) would either show or point me in the right direction as to how to create a ‘Delete’ facility which is very similar to the ‘Open’ command button on the continuous form.
I have attempted to adapt the enclosed 'coding' to see if it will come up with the result that I want, but unfortunately I cannot!

Your help or assistance in this matter would be very welcome...........
I have created a form where data is entered. I wish to place a command button on the form and when it is pressed, it deletes data in specified textboxes. The texboxes are: LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME, MIDDLE_NAME.
I assume this is done using vb, but I am clueless.
I have a tabbed form in a navigation form with a chart on it. The records source of the chart is a query. The query runs when you click the tab and takes a long time. I changed the Row Source of chart to "" and that eliminates the query running on form load. I've read many posts on changing that row source when a command button is clicked. I tried
in the onclick event of the command button. This doesn't work. I've tried many variations of the syntax. I don't know if I have to tell the query to run after the row source is changed.
On a side note, the query criteria is based on beginning and end dates entered into text boxes on the form. This all works if the query loads when the form is opened.
I need to return a folders directory to a text box on my forms record called Files_Directory when i click the Browse command button... The folder will have more folders within it along with documents all relivant to the folder selected, hense the need for just the folder directory rather than a file.
I am rewriting an old Access 2003 database in Access 2010. When creating new command buttons, the current theme gives them a default appearance. I need to apply this appearance to old command buttons. I know there is a way to select the default button and apply its properties to others quickly. I have done it before but didn't write the process down .
I have created a web-database (? - There are globes over all the forms and tables icons) based on the Issues & Tasks template. This means that most of the data is entered and seen on the "Main" form, which has two tabs - Open Issues and Closed Issues. I have created a form that allows people at my work to input the necessary data and save it, so that it will show up on one of the two tabs. However, once a record has been created, I want to be initially locked if the ID/PK is clicked, so that data can't be changed or entered inadvertently.
SO, I changed the code so that when the ID/PK for a record is clicked, it brings up a different form, but one that looks exactly like the one that is brought up when entering a new form, but I locked all of the fields so that the information cannot be changed. It seems from what I have read that I can create a button on this form so that when clicked, it unlocks the fields on the form so that they can be changed, and then when clicked again it will lock the fields again. Is this true? If so, how can I do it? Or is there something similar I can do? I have seen codes that I could copy and paste, but I cannot figure out the place to copy and paste codes in Access 2010.
I have changed the Form properties so that Data Entry and all the "Allows" are set to No...
my database just records end of day sales figures which are entered though a form, after they are entered the total for the day is archived. However the problem i have is that the i need some way of clearing the input table with a command in the form.
I have a main form and four subforms all of which were created from the tables without queries. The main form pulls employees personal data (never changes). The subforms pull Events attended, Lodging at the event, Family that attended the event and Employee minutia which changes per event. I'd like to have a button on the main form that changes the records in view for all of the subforms at once. This way it is easier for the users and I know that I am view all the pertainent info for event A instead of viewing event A's lodging info with event B's family info.
I have 2 tables, one has a list of comments indexed by numbers.
The second table will be populated with numbers that correspond to the first table based on usage of the form that I'm about to describe.
The form contains several check boxes. Each corresponds to a comment from the first table. If 3 of the check boxes are selected when the command button is pressed, I want three separate new record entries to go into the second table and the data that I want entered is the text in the label that is next to each check box on the form. After the records are added to the table, I'd like to reset the check boxes.
I simply cannot figure out how to code the button to do this.
I have a subform where you can add multiple records. i have a command button labelled NEXT (which obviously navigates to the next record) but I only want this to be enabled when there is more than one record.
I am OK on the enabling bit but how do you specify if the record number >1?
Does someone have time to start me off on some code?
I have two tables, one is GENETIC and the other one is BoneSampleDNAprofile. Both tables have the field CY-Code. I want to create small form with 2 text box fields and one command button on the form to be able to insert CY-Code from the table GENETIC to designated DNA_LAB_Code in the table BoneSampleDNAprofile.
In that small form I would type DNA_LAB_Code and CY-Code where after pressing command button will insert CY-Code for the designated DNA_LAB_Code. This is continuous process after our Laboratory receive results from DNA laboratory. I have attached two .png files which are example of two tables.
I am building a db for reservations for my limo company. I want to have a cmd button that verifies the user to make sure she wants to delete a run. This is what I have so far:
Private Sub cmdDeleteRun_Click() Dim Response Response = msgbox("Are you sure you want to delete this run?", vbYesNoCancel + vbCritical, "Really delete run?") If Response = vbYes Then
End Sub
I don't know what I am missing for the cmd to actually delete it.
For school I have to make a application in access how to delete a selected record in the table in a subform by using a button. The subform is in the main form and the button is also in the main form
1- Open the Report called : ConsentForm 2- Print it to PDF printer (report is currently defaulted to that printer driver) 3- Save to folder: C:SOSConsentForms 4- Save as: Consent_[Last]_[First] (these are field names on the form) Result i.e.: C:SOSConsentFormsConsent_Doe_John 5- Then send the file by email (Outlook) to : abc@hotmail.com
I have managed to export the data that I want into a spreadsheet using a command button.
Once my colleagues have completed the spreadsheet, I need a command button on a form with a file search dialogue box which will allow them to transfer the spreadsheet back into the database - updating the relevant records rather that over writing them.
Is there a VB code/Macro I can use which will allow me to do this?
