I have a mainform. When I click on a command button, it opens up another form. That form is designed to be as a continuous form, yet it does not display the header. The header is present in the form view. I have attached the screenprints to show the header in my form and the corresponding properties window.
View RepliesI created a form with a continuous default view and created labels in the page header of the form. When I view the form, I can see the data from the form detail, but the lables in the page header do not appear. Why can't I see the labes in the page header ?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have some images stored in a SQL Table which is linked into Access. These images have to be stored in the database as I also reference them on other platforms (Android, Web etc).
In my Access programme I need to display a continuous form / report showing each image. Now, good old Access cannot display multiple images stored in the database on a continuous form. It can only do this if it is referencing the path to the image.
When the user views the form they will only see about 12 images at a time. I thought of a workaround which is to write the database images back to file to a local temp directory when the user loads the form. The user would be happy to wait for say 10 to 15 seconds whilst the form loads.
However, I cannot find an efficient algorithm to write the images back to a file. The one I am using is a BinarytoString algorithm by motobit which is fine for very small images, but anything over 100kb (which is still pretty small) it goes sooooo slow.
How to quickly write an image stored as a long binary in an Access DB back to a file? Or do I need to crack open my Visual Studio and write some C# DLL to use instead...?
When I press a label, The following code is run: -
Code:
With Me
DoCmd.GoToControl "cmdQuit"
.lblPassword.Visible = Not .lblPassword.Visible
.txtPassword.Visible = Not .txtPassword.Visible
.cmdPassword.Visible = Not .cmdPassword.Visible
[Code] .....
The code excutes OK, however the top left corner of the form shows a square based on the forms background grid. See attachment.
How do I get rid of this? When the form opens then there is no such box showing.
I have a Form which I have linked correctly to a subform. The Text boxes are showing in the Design view but are not when one switches to the Form View. Labels for Fields are visible in the Form View. Have even created a new subform and that will also not display the Text Boxes.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form which is opened with a filter from another form. For some reason it views the form in form view, although it was set up as datasheet view. I even went to the form properties and the default was datasheet and i made it not to allow other views. This still didnt solve it. I want it to be in datasheet view because i want to show multiple records at the same time.
If u kno how i could resolve this please offer ur help
thanks
I have a form with a query as rowsource.When I open the form in data sheet view form header is not showing(Though it is visible in form view).Is it possible to show the form header in datasheet view?

Is there any way to identify the Top row in a continuous view form?This changes of course as you scroll down. What I'm thinking of doing is a page jump page forward, or back. The form is based on a query and has a line number field, but I can't figure outhow to get at it in code.

In other words, how to auto populate the primary key to multiple records displayed the subform?
In a table I have three fields 1. City - which is a combo box linked to a query, 2. State - a text box, 3. postal Code - a text box
When i put them on a form I use the info selected in the City box to populate the info in the State and Postcal Code boxes.
The Control source for the city is SELECT tblPostcodes.ID, tblPostcodes.Pcode, tblPostcodes.Locality, tblPostcodes.State FROM tblPostcodes;
Then on the form i put the control source of the state box as =City.column(1) and Postal code as =City.column(3)
This works fine on the form- and the information is retained - but the datasheet view of the table does not record either the State or the Postcode data that was entered. Is this because I put the control source on the form and the table is not recognising it? if this is the case how do enter it from the table?? really confused...
I used a macro to record the date and time the current record was modified and show that information on a form - the information on how I did that is here: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/a...0345351033.aspx
That works wonderfully, however I would like to add to this the user that modified the record.
Is there a macro code for this??
I tried setting the Item to read [UserModified] and the Expression to be User() however that did not work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
thanks.
I have a table called NewTransactions_tbl that I have been using for some time. I am trying to add a new field called CustomerProjectNumber. It's not being displayed when I look at the table view. I've attached an image showing the settings for the field. I am probably missing something obvious.
Any ideas why it is not showing?
I am using Access 2000.
My form was working fine but when I added an extra tab it started showing as completely blank in design view. When I deleted the tab I had added I still was left with the same problem!
I've attached an image of the form properties. I want to use the form to enter data so it needs to show even if there are no records.
I had read that it could be if there is no data but typing data in the tables hasn't worked either.
I am trying to get rid of the row header (the little square next to a record) when in datasheet view.

Greetings all,
I have a question regarding subforms that are set to show continuous forms and how they can relate to each other. I have attached a jpg of what i'm trying to do, you may want to open it so you can follow along with what I will now explain.
I have 3 subforms on a main form. The subform on the left shows high level info. A user would find the record they want in the subform on the left, double click, and that would in turn populate the two subforms to the right.
My question is how do I reference the name field in the record selected in the left subform , for criteria purposes in the queries for the right hand subforms? I thought maybe using the bookmark property but that hasn't worked.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
TIA,
Tim
I have a log of items I currently inventory. When you click on an item, it opens another form with a sub-form that lists the history of changes for said item in a continuous form display.
What I want to be able to do is when that form is opened, the sub-form will highlight the last entry (either bold it, or change the background).
I have a form that is being used for sample submission. Ideally, the user will be able to put in some information (3 or 4 fields) and the number of samples that they're taking, click the arrow and it will insert that number of samples into a temporary table that is then displayed on a continuous form. From there, they can edit samples, add more samples, and generate a report to submit to the genotyping group. Once their sample list is final, I will append it to the master list and clear the temporary table.
I've got the basics working. A looped "INSERT INTO" using a counter inserts the relevant information. I cannot, however, seem to get the numbering field to work.
Ultimately, the numbers need to look something like MySample-001, where MySample would be one of the other fields. Incrementing the 001 is the problem. In another situation in the database, I can successfully use DMax+1 to assign a single number on a single form, but I can't get it to increment the sample numbers.
Ideally, I'd like it to happen when the form is generated. However, I'm also open to having them assigned when the sample list is finalized, before inserting into master table.
In my database, I have a continuous form with a Name, a Date and a Yes/No field.
When the form opens, I want to look at the date of every record on the form and show a message box if it is before the current day.
The code I have is this;
Private Sub Form_Load()
With Me.RecordsetClone
While Not .EOF
If Me.Date1 < Date Then
MsgBox "" & Me.Person & ""
End If
If Not .EOF Then .MoveNext
Wend
End With
End Sub
However, it loops just the first record the amount of times there is of records (i.e., it will only show the first person's name in the message box, and will show 3 times if there are 3 records).
I am using the following by Allen Browne to sort one field. But now I need to sort on two fields.
Code:
Function SortForm(frm As Form, ByVal sOrderBy As String) As Boolean
On Error GoTo Err_SortForm 'Provided by Allen Browne
'Purpose: Set a form's OrderBy to the string. Reverse if already set.
'Return: True if success.
'Usage: Command button above a column in a continuous form:
' Call SortForm(Me, "MyField")

I m having a subform in datasheet view. whn i use a join query as the record source for the sub form, i am not able to add or update any record in the datasheet. Is there anyway to use a linked query as record source of the datasheet with editable property.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a form (Form4) which has a a list box (list11) that allows multi select. When I select on the records I need I hit a button that opens a form up with the selected records. This form is a continuous form. I have an unbound combo box (Combo55). Its values come from a specific table. I want to hit a button and change the field "Assigned" on all the records showing to the value that I selected in Combo55.
The problem is it only changes the value of the currently selected record. How Do I get it to change the value of all records that are showing?
I am only testing this idea with default field names. Before I implement the database I have to get a working model and present it. So I am building this and naming at the moment isnt important.
