Modules & VBA :: DLookup Fill Textbox After Combo Selection
Apr 29, 2014
I'm a novice when it comes to Access 2010, and I'm having trouble with DLookup syntax, and am going nuts. I have tblLookup, tblFees and Costs, and frmFees and Costs. All data entry is done in frmFees and Costs.
The tblLookup lists plaintiffs and the matter related to them. In the form, I made a combo box [Combo13] for plaintiffs and a text box for Matter [Matter], but whenever I enter the plaintiff, I get an error.
The error is:
Run-time error '3075':
Syntax error (comma) in query expression '[PlaintiffName]=The Plaintiff I Typed in'
The code I'm trying to use:
Private Sub Combo13_AfterUpdate()
Me.Matter = DLookup ("[Matter]", "tblLookup", "[PlaintiffName] =" & Me.Combo13)
End Sub
[PlaintiffName] is the column name in the tblLookup.
I looked around the forums but couldn't find anything that matched my setup.

I am new to Acces programming and have been tasked with making a database for work. I is a very simple database. What I need it to do though that I can't figure out is. Once the table is populated with information I want the user to be able to select a record from my combo box and then all the rest of the information from the record will automatically display in the correct text field so any changes can be made to it. So I have say Combo Box John Smith and when he is selected I want text field DOB to automatically fill with 01/01/1960 as that is what was put in there when he was first entered.
Thanks.

I set up an Access database to track visiting families. Each person in a family is inserted as a seperate row in my table. The table has the following columns: Visitor # (which is an auto #), Head of household, last name, first name, phone, email, address and etc.
The first person I enter when a family visits is the head of the household. I set up a quiery with a pull down combo box in my form so when I enter a new entry I can select a head of the houshold to assign each person to. Since I put the head of the household in first. I can then select that head of the household (this way I can track each family member seperate but still know they belong to the same family). So if we have a family visit that has a husband, wife and a child. There are three entries each having a head of the household as the same. When I use the query to select the head of the household in the combo box I would like the information that is the same as the original "head of the household" entry (address and phone #) to be automacially filled in from the husband's initial entry.
How can I do this? I read some other post with some VB in them like "Me.TextBox = ComboBox1.Column(3)" but I don't understand the syntax too well since I'm new at this.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

i have selected a drop down box with 3 coloums looked up from another table i would like 1 of the columns to stay in the combo box after selection and the other two to appear in the text boxes on the same page.
Any help would be much appreciated.
thanks

I have a form frmCrisisSupportWorkers with a tab control on the form. On the first tab, Personal Info there is a combo box called cboLocation. It is next to the Town/City.
I have a text box that updates the postcode after the selection is made below it but that is as the post codes are stored in the combo box and I just put the column for the postcode in the control source of the text box.
I can't do that for state as I have it stored in another table and use a numeric identifier to show which state is selected.
I want to have a text box below that auto updates the state once a town is selected but I can't seem to get it working.

My table:
tblHeatTreatment
- HeatTreatmentID - PK
- HeatTreatmentDesc - Text
- HeatTreatmentDetails - Memo
My form has a listbox (lstHeatTreatments - Multi-Select disabled) that displays Heat Treatment descriptions and an unbound textbox (txtHTDetails) that I would like to have display the corresponding memo field when a description is selected from the listbox.
This is my code so far:
Code:
Private Sub lstHeatTreatments_AfterUpdate()
Dim myConnection As ADODB.Connection
Dim myRecordSet As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim mySQL As String
Dim selectedRequirementKey As Long
Set myConnection = CurrentProject.AccessConnection
Set myRecordSet.ActiveConnection = myConnection
[Code]....
When I run the code I get an error:
Quote:
Run-time error '-2147352567 (80020009)':
The Value you entered isn't valid for this field
When I debug, it highlights:
Code:
Me.txtHTDetails = myRecordSet.Fields

I have a form (Project Form) with (Project_ID,Applicant_ID,Project_description, etc). To make it easier for the user who may not know the Applicant _ID when he/she is adding a new project for the applicant, I want to put a combo box with the Applicant Names in it, and once the Applicant Name is chosen, the Applicant ID will be filled out automatically and be saved in the Project Table.
My Approach so far was adding a combo box with two columns(Applicant ID, Applicant Name), and basically adding the following code:
Private Sub Combo36_AfterUpdate()
Me.Applicant_ID = Me.Combo36.Column(0)
End Sub
This approach works well, when I select an applicant, the Applicant ID will pop up correctly. However, This ID is not being saved in the Project Table.

FROM tbl00PersonRole INNER JOIN tbl01Orgs ON tbl00PersonRole.OrgRoleID = tbl01Orgs.OrgRoleID
WHERE (((tbl01Orgs.OrgRoleID)=[Forms]![frmOrgEntry]![OrgRoleID]));
This is the code I have on cboOrgRole AfterUpdate

I'm trying to write a query to allow the user to search through records.
To make the interface simple I just want a combobox to select the search field and a text box to enter the search string.
My problem is trying to build a query where the value of a combobox on a form is used as a field in the query.

Alright, I've tried just about everything else, now I need to tap into the grapevine for some help. I've read every thread about auto pop info, DLookUP and auto fill. I'm so lost and confused. I'm an Access 97 beginner and can't seem to get my form to do the things I need. I'm working with an existing form and trying to get text fields to auto fill with an "After Update" command. I'm not familiar with VB coding and the function isn't working. If someone out there can help me, I'd really appreciate it.

I have a form designed to update content on a website. I'm trying to work out how to populate fields with entries from past dates.
I have set up two combo boxes for each 'spot' on the site, one for date: Feature_1_Date and one for which content spot the content was occupying Feature_1_Spot.
The idea being that these boxes would read the row from my table to find the date, and the column to find which spot the content did occupy to copy the same content into a field Feature_1_Content
From what I can gather I need to use DLOOKUP (I'm very familiar with VLOOKUP on excel) but I'm doing something very wrong as can't get it to show any content.

Hi
I have created a form with one unbound textbox and a command button.
How do I make sure that the query only runs if text is entered in the textbox?
I do not want the command button to run unless the textbox has data to query.
At the moment the Query runs and displays all records.

My database will be creating quotes based on employees entries. Each quote will be unique because of the part. Each part has the potential to have Precious Metals, and Base Metals included. The employee must select the number Precious Metals and Base Metals that a particular part has. The problem lies with what happens after this selection is made. There are three fields that need to be defined pertaining to each metal. I need the number selected to determine how many fields to make available. If there are two precious metals, I need to make the three fields available twice; one for both metals. I have the possibility for up to 5 Precious Metals and 10 Base Metals per part. How can I make the selection from a combo box populate that number of Metals Fields?

I have an unbound combobox on a form that is used to filter the records of a subform based on who they have been assigned to. The combo box is based off of a query to the personnel table and utilizes a UNION querry to add the option "**ALL**" with a id number "111111" as the first option in the combo box.
In other words: the combo box has a list of names to choose from and the word "ALL" at the top as the first selection. The idea is that when "**ALL**" is selected, the subform should display all records regardless of who they have been assigned to. I'm trying to accomplish this with VBA. I've started developing the code to try to impliment this, however currently when "**ALL**" is selected, I'm getting a datatype missmatch that seems to be caused by my use of recordset.
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub cboTaskListName_AfterUpdate()
'On Error GoTo cboTaskListName_AfterUpdate_Err
Me.Refresh
[code]...
Also once the queried records are saved into the record set, how can I communicate that to the subform so that it displays them?

I have a data entry form for Table-A. After I enter an account on the form, I use the account to get a value from a different table and put that value in another combobox. I tried using a SetValue to fill the combobox. I put the SELECT statement from a query in the Expression parameter. But Access doesn't accept that Expression and produces an error message about "Forms" not being a field. This has got to be a common action in forms, so there must be a better way to do this.

So, I have a form and I need it so that when one field is selescted, the other 2 auto fill based on my selection. The form is based off of a Table, "TblClient" and The fields are ClientID (PK), InventoryType, Policy, and DueDate.
I want the user to type in the ClientID, and then once they select InventoryType, Policy and DueDate are autofilled.
I have another table, "TblData" that has the data for InventoryType and the coresponding Policy and DueDate associated with each one. So far, I have a combobox for InvnentoryType with a query for rowsource for InventoryType with the width of these additional columns to zero so they are not displayed in the combo. Then, I added unbound text boxes to my form (one for each additional field) and in the Control Source of those text boxes I put:
In the first unbound text box;
=[InventoyType].Column(2)
This worked for me, but now I realize that I want to give it the option that once these are autopopulated, they can be edited. For example, the policy most of the time is exactly the same for a certain inventory type, but sometimes, a word or two needs to be changed. Is this possible?

I am trying to use this expression in my textbox to show when the textbox value is null:
=IIf(IsNull([ContractStatus]),"Null",[ContractStatus])
It gives me a circular reference error (#error in the textbox). If I change it to this:
=IIf(IsNull([ContractStatus]),"Null","ContractStatus"), it will display the text "Contract Status" (obviously).
What am I overlooking here? Does this need to be done in VBA?

Hi,
I've been working on a database to keep track of employee time off, It consists of the main table, a employee table, and a department table.
I had a form that our admin uses to enter the info for each employee.
They would select the name of the employee from a drop down, and then select the department that employee is in from another drop down. then they would select the days off and reason ect. Then when finished they would hit submit and this would be entered into the main table.
Well they just asked if it would be possible to make it so when they enter the employee's name, that the department would automatically be filled in for the employee.
Is this possible? I'm trying to think of how to do it, but not coming up with anything.
Thanks
Chris.

I have a combobox on an unbound form. After making a selection, I click a command button which opens a bound form to a new record. What I need to code next or add into the macro, is for the selection of the combobox to fill in the contact id, and contact name in the correct text boxes.
The combobox row source is: SELECT qryPBS.ConID, qryPBS.PBSName FROM qryPBS; bound column 1.

In my database I have a table of customers and a table of orders (where many customers have more than one order, so the primary keys for each table are customerID and orderID).
In the orders table, the first columns are:
OrderID CustomerID Customer Forename Customer Surname
I need my table to auto fill in the customer forename and surname based on the selection of customerID (the names are saved in the customers table).
I already have a lot of data filled in, so am looking ideally for a way to fill these name columns without having to re-input all the data.

I'm using Access 2010. I'm having trouble with dlookup.
Table name: tblTier2
Fields: Tier2ID, autonumber
Tier2FieldType, text
I have an unbound list box on a main menu form.
The listbox control is numeric and called: lstItem
I tried putting the following in the textbox:
Neither of these worked:
= DLookUp("[Tier2FieldType]","[tblTier2]","[Tier2ID]=" & [lstitem])
=DLookUp("[Tier2FieldType]","[tblTier2]","[Tier2ID]=" & [lstitem].[column](0))
I wanted to see if the lstItem was the problem, so I put ths following in the text box. :
=[lstitem] (it returned the ID number selected from the list box, e.g., 809)
