Jun 26, 2015I have an MS Access 2010 db that has a main form called switchboard. This has 4 command buttons that open diffrent forms. Also on the main switchboard form i have an unbound textbox called TxtUserName that captures the users environ"username" when the switchboard form is opened.
I have a table called "tblAccessUsers" that i manually enter who i want to use my db. This table will have up to 50 names added to it. Their is only one field name in this table and it is "User Login".
When the user hits any of the commandbuttons on the main switchboard form i need some code that will look at the value in TxtUserName and loop through tblAccessUsers for an exact match. If it finds a match then it will carry out the open form command or if not prompt the user with a message box.
My knowledge of Access and especially VB is quite limited. I managed to create this using a DLookup but that only returns the first record in the table. The logic works but it will not look past the first record.
Modules & VBA :: Way To Find Which Control Is Being Clicked
Aug 18, 2014I have two command buttons having two textboxes to populate. The way I am going to populate the text for both the textboxes is same but on separate clicks. Is there way to find which button (or control) is being clicked in runtime. I think I have done it a long back but not getting right now (I had a gap in my career). The keyword sounds like some 'Defaultcodecontrol' or something like that only.

Forms :: Find Record In Table That Matches Textbox Input
Jan 5, 2014I'm trying to build a search form.- Access 2007
I have a table (Table1), contains a 'part' field.
I wan to build a form with a blank text box (txtbx1) where users can enter a part description, this will search records in Table1>part and return a list of parts that match the textbox input.
Here's what I've done -
txtbx1 - property sheet - control source - part
event - on enter - ...
I've built an expression -
[Table1]![part] = [txtbx1]
hoping that this would match records 1n Table1 to txtbx1
Control Source For An Unbound Textbox
Oct 25, 2005I have a form that uses a query as its control source. The problem I have is that on this form I have an unbound textbox that I need to show the result of another query in. I thought I could do this by using =[Query]![QueryName]![Field name] in its control source, but this isn't working.
What is the right way to go about this?
Cheers
Textbox Control Source To Field Plus Sum
Jun 16, 2006I have a textbox with it's field control source set.
Is there any way of having a Sum function that adds up other textboxes and saves them in this field/textbox.
So far i can either set the control source to the field name or have =Sum([size_sqm])
Textbox's Control Source Property
Feb 15, 2006I have a main form with about six text boxs, these are too small to display the complete data so I created a form with a larger text box. When I dbbl-click in any of the various text boxs on the main form it would open the new popup form displaying the data. I need to be able to access the control source property of the popup form's textbox to change the control source to match the selected text box on the main form. This would allow me to use only one popup form instead of six.
The code I use to access the actual popup form itself is:
Forms![Notes].Form.Caption = " Notes "
Now I need to know what the code is to access the forms textbox control source data.
Hope I have explained this correctly
Display Control Source OR Default Value In Textbox
Aug 31, 2005Table1 has field (% Completed this Period) that may contain a value, or may be NULL for each entry, depending on how much work was performed that period. The records are sorted by date.
Form1 has a textbox that basically keeps a running tally of "% Completed to Date" by summing the "% Completed this Period" for the current period and all previous periods. So, my Control Source for the textbox is the DSum(...) function.
The problem is this: If I am looking at the first record and there is a 0 (null) value for "% Completed this Period," (i.e. No work was completed that period), I want to display 0 on Form1. However, Access just displays nothing - a blank textbox. I tried making a default value, but nothing will show up since I already have a Control Source set for that field. If I take the DSum function out of the Control Source, then the 0 will show up. But, obviously that defeats the whole purpose of the textbox. I guess I'm trying to figure out how to display the DSum value IF it is something other than 0, BUT IF IT IS 0, then I want 0 to be displayed. Any help would be appreciated.
Forms :: Textbox Control Not Filling When Default Value Is Set
Jul 28, 2015I have 3 tables, tblClients, tblClientDetails, and tblSchedulingDetails.
I have a field in tblClientDetails to contain the client number from tblClients, and I have two fields in tblSchedulingDetails to contain the client number and the client details number.
I then created a form that holds most of the fields for all of the tables mentioned above to enter new client names, new client address info, and basic client scheduling info.
Now, I have set the default values using the property sheet in design view for the following:
ClientNum > ClientNum_tblClientDetails and
ClientNum > ClientNum_tblSchedulingDetails and
ClientDetailsNum > ClientDetailsNum_tblSchedulingDetails
I promise this is not a riddle...
Here's the quandary - ClientNum_tblClientDetails is autofilling from tblClients, and ClientDetailsNum_tblSchedulingDetails is autofilling from tblClientDetails, but ClientNum_tblSchedulingDetails is not autofilling in spite of the fact that the default value is set with =[ClientNum].
I then created a modal dialogue form with the fields from tblClients and tblClientDetails with a command button that opens another modal that contains the fields from tblSchedulingDetails, set the appropriate default values, and the ClientNum_tblSchedulingDetails autofills as needed.
The question at hand is, why do I have to use modal dialogue forms to perform this action and cannot do it in one single form?
Control Subform Textbox From Master Form Checkbox?
Nov 16, 2014My bound master form has bound subform in it and both of them has linked fields. In the master form i've placed a checkbox which if unchacked will lock and disable a textbox in the SUBFORM, and if checked will enable and unlock the textbox and fill it with a calculation result, which will then be passed on to the underlying table.
Now, suppose in the master form (named X), i have A (checkbox) and B (textbox with numeric value) and in the subform (named Y), i have C & D (both textboxes with numeric values). Hence if A is checked, I'd like D to return the result of - "B*C". Or else D will remain locked and disabled.
Find Table And Field For A Form Control
Jan 7, 2008Given the firmname and textbox name is it possible to programmically get the fieldname and table name where the data for that control is held.
I can use .controlsource and .recordsource
But is possible that .controlsouce is an alias of the actual fieldname.
Similarly the recordsource could be a query, from that I want to get the actual table, complicated say if two tables in the query had a field with the same name (even if only one was referenced)
Thanks.
Tables :: Find Control Bounded To Field
Jul 13, 2013I have:
1) a table (T) with fields (F1, F2, .... , Fk, .... Fn). I do not know "n"
2) a form (F) bounded to this table
I know that I have a control bounded to field Fk.
How I can find what control is ?
Something like this:
Dim MyCtl As Control
Dim ctl As Control
For Each ctl In Controls
If ctl IsBoundedToFieldFk Then
Set MyCtl = ctl
Exit For
End If
Next ctl
Forms :: Textbox On Main Form Referring To Subform Control
Aug 14, 2014I have a form with a subform which resides in a tabbed control. In that subform, I have a textbox in the footer that sums values in the detail section of the subform.
I have a textbox on my main form that should display the same data that is in my subform footer textbox, but it is giving me the #name? error.
This is the expression in my subform footer textbox (which returns the correct result):
TxtSubtotalHQPCalc -
=Sum([ActualHQPCalc])
And the expression in my main form textbox (which returns #name?):
txtActualHQPValue -
=([subfrmHQPProject].[Form]![TxtSubtotalHQPCalc])
I have verified that my subform name and textbox names are all accurate. This is very frustrating because I am using this exact same method in a different database with no problems!
Forms :: Textbox Control Source - Pull Data To Display On Summary Tab
Oct 16, 2014I have a form, with a tab control on it. Each tab has a subform to display data. One tab is meant to be a summary tab of the rest, so I want to pull data from certain controls on each of the other tabs to display on the Summary tab.
If I set the ControlSource to Forms!subfrmLABOUR!txtTotalHours.Value the control just displays #Name?
I assume that means it can't reference the ControlSource. Is it just a syntax thing? I've tried various methods, but no luck.
Forms :: Make Beep Sound When Try To Type Into Locked Textbox Control
Jan 31, 2015Nothing else to explain really. How can I get my database to make a beep sound when something is trying to be typed into a locked textbox control?
This is so that my users can know that it's locked (much like when the delete button is pressed on a new record).
Queries :: Making Default Value Of A Form Textbox Control Minimum Value Of A Field
Mar 21, 2014Expressions in Access have given me some trouble before. Mainly due to inexperience. I hardly ever work with them. What I am trying to do is make the default value of a form textbox control the minimum value of a field A in a table A. The datatype of Field A is Date.
So far I've got:
=Min([table A].[field A])
In the Default Value of the form's property sheet, but this just returns a blank value. I've had a look in the table and there is no value that is blank in field A.

How Do You Change The "Default" Properties Of TextBox Control
Sep 22, 2006Hello, how can I change the "default" textbox properites.
When ever I place a new textbox on the form it has certain properties which I must always change.
For example I want all my textboxes to be flat not sunken and to have a solid border style. Currently the default is sunken and transparent border so I must always change it.
I know how to do it via VBA... just want to do it immediately using default.
I am assuming it's somewhere in Windows Registry?
Thanks

Modules & VBA :: Add Textbox Value To Listbox
Aug 5, 2013I would like to type a value into a list box and then press a command button and have that value transfer to a list box for later use. I've been playing with the onclick event of my command button and this is what I have so far:
Code:
Option Compare Database
Private Sub Command4_Click()
List0.AddItem Text2.Text
List0.ListIndex = List0.ListCount - 1
End Sub
When I click the button I get an error:
2185 - You can't reference a property or method for a control unless the control has the focus.
Modules & VBA :: Textbox And Contents Will Not Display
May 3, 2014Me.TxtNotAllowed.Visible = True
dtTimer1 = Now
dtTimer2 = Now + TimeValue("00:00:10")
Me.TxtNotAllowed.Value = "You do not have permission to use this database !"
Do Until dtTimer1 >= dtTimer2
dtTimer1 = Now()
Loop
Me.TxtNotAllowed.Value = ""
DoCmd.Quit
The above code will run definitely for the 10 seconds however the textbox and contents do not display HOWEVER if stepped through with breakpoints line by line and the form checked each time the textbox DOES display and its contents.
Modules & VBA :: Cannot Assign A Value To This Object (Textbox)

Modules & VBA :: How To Reference A Textbox In Subform
Jul 16, 2013reference a text box in sub form. I did the same thing for the combo box in it worked perfect. I am not sure why this is not working for textbox.
This is how I referenced it:
[Forms]![MainOrderForm]![CuttingNumForm].[Form]![Style1]
Form: MainOrderForm
Sub Form: CuttingNumForm
Text Box: Style1
I should also mention that "Style1" filed in automatically once a "CuttingNum" field is selected.
