View RepliesI know how to make a text box entry "required" such that one cannot exit a record until a value is entered but cannot figure out how to make it required only if another field on the form has an entry. None of the form events seem to support that when focus moves to another record as far as I can tell. What I want to do is display an error message if the condition is not met on exiting a record but to also remain on (or go back to) that record so the required text box entry can then be made.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a form on which there is a series of text box controls relating to different frequencies. At the moment I enter a value in to each of these manually.
However, I would like to have an unbound text box where I can paste in all the values (6 or 8 of them) from excel and then press a button and they would be copied in to the individual boxes.
So far I have my design:
I'm not sure where to start with regard to the code as I don't know how to handle delimited text - is it column delimited in excel?
I imagine some sort of loop, such as a do until will be required but again not sure.
I have 2 fields in a query which I want to write to a table. Eg ProductName (field length 10) and Product Code (field length 5) the fields need to be filled out so the length makes the maximum text
For example product name 'test' length is 4 i have to add 0 to make the length to 10 so the field will be 000000test same thing applies to Product code. I have 700 records like this, is there a way in VBA where it adds the extra text to make it the maximum length.
Is there a way to make a text box populate a predefined number based off what time of day the form is opened?

View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have 2 forms, a master and a subform.
In the subform form there are some required fields. In the table behind the subform I choose the property of these fields to be required.
but in the master form, when I start enter the information I can go to the next record without even touching the subform.
How Can I make the subform required in the master form?

I have about 25 text boxes that get populated based on a financial transaction; quite often about half of them are empty. i wanted to gray them out if they are emtpy (.enabled = false). I could put a series of IF statements in the vba for each one, but its bulky and time-consuming. I've done for each record in tables and recordsets. Is there a way to do a for each textbox on a form?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am having a little problem with making an audit trail for a form with some unbound text controls on it.
Since .OldValue won't work on unbound text boxes, google suggested that I put the old value in the control's tag property. This is what I came up with:
Code:
Dim ctl, tbox As Control
Dim strName, strOLD, StrNew, NewTag As String
Dim NextOne As Label
For Each tbox In Me.Controls
If TypeName(tbox) = "TextBox" Then
Select Case tbox.Value
[Code] ....
The first loop is supposed to dynamically assign the tag value, with whatever the textbox value is, however it doesn't. I've asterisked out the line i think may be the issue.
I have a listbox where the rowsource is a SQL statement. I didn't know if I should try that or just use a query for what I am doing. The listbox is based on our client table, which is a huge number of people, and is showing 3 out of 5 fields.
I have two text boxes, one for first name and one for last name.
I would like the listbox to filter as I search by either field OR by both. Right now, I have the on change event for each with a SQL statement with a Like '*" & Me.textboxname.text & "*' and then a Me.clientlist.rowsource= at the end. So I can get each text box to filter the listbox individually, but I can't get it to filter with both. I think it is a matter of the focus changing, but I could be wrong.
I am using MS Access 2007 and have a report which display the list of values (say 10 fields) from the basic SELECT * FROM table query.
I need to dynamically set the BOLD based on the particular value for the fifth field which was assigned from Query. if it doesn't match it should display normal.
E.g
If Field_5 = "Agent" then
Field_5.FontBold = True
Else
Field_5.FontBold = False
End if
I tried the aforementioned code and it dont work. ALso i tried achieve it using below listed options.
Me.Field_5.FontBold = True
Field_5.Properties("fontweight") = 700
But nothing worked.
I have query that creates table with 2 records each with 2 columns (2x2) and they do not have indexed ID,and query is related to combo box in other form so results are not always same but it is always (2x2) and value types are always same,
So how to show those results in text box in form,lets say 4 text boxes ,every value in one text box, i assume that i need to use DLookup() but i was able only to show first record,did not know what criteria put to go to second record.
When i select that query and create report i get what i want but i cant copy those text boxes to form that i want.
I would like to be able to join 2 text boxes and then copy them to clipboard. My initial fumbling has had me to joing the 2 text boxes as a string and then set that string as the value of another hidden text box and then copy that text box.
strOut = Me.Title & Me.Description
Me.CopyTxt.Visible = True
Me.CopyTxt.Value = strOut
Me.CopyTxt.SetFocus
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
Me.Title.SetFocus
Me.CopyTxt.Visible = False
This does work but I would like to format the output if possible to remove the element identifiers? The string copies out as below.
Title Information<div>Description Information</div>
Is it possible to remove the <div> and any other elements that may appear either using my method or another way. Not sure if they are appearing as the Title box is plain text and the description is Rich?
I have a form with three text boxes and one button. I want to use these three text boxes as parameters for specific query, thus i want a code that has the ability to pass these three value to query parameters or another code to solve this problem.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm developing a form to link a clause to one of a selection of internal documents from drop down boxes (of which there are a lot and hence looking for ways to make it more manageable to find).Now the setup of the internal documents is unfortunately beyond my control (separate SharePoint Libraries, inconsistent fields, you name it they've picked the worst way to do it :P).
I figure the best way to do this is to set up some unbound controls - two drop down (to narrow down location/department), two text boxes (doc code and name) with the idea that it will limit the selection to anything 'like' what is typed in.What I would like is either: How to set the RowSource criteria to only apply if the relevant control is not blank (i.e. if all the boxes are blank, all docs will show; if 'Sales' is selected in department and the user types 'Sales Order Entry' only the Sales Documents relating to order entry will appear)How to add criteria to the RowSource of a dropdown box via VBA (I've created the relevant 'If then ... else' statements but not sure how to add rowsource criteria in VBA)
We're looking at a way that we can easily display what stage our clients' email marketing campaigns are at - in one section of our CRM our Campaign Manager will enter information on whether the campaign has broadcast (ie: emailed out to the required circulation list(s)), if we're waiting for artwork from the client or if we're chasing for that information.
I have four text boxes (date format) hidden on a subform that I need to pull ONE max date from.
So, as an example:
Email1 (our first email to the client chasing for artwork) = 01/01/2015
Email2 (our second email to the client chasing artwork) = 08/01/2015
Email3 (our third chase email) = 15/01/2015
Broadcast (the date the email campaign was finally sent) = 29/01/2015
I would need some code to show in an unbound textbox "Broadcast: 29/01/2015"
But, on the other hand, if the dates looked like this:
Email1 = 01/01/2015
Email2 = 08/01/2015
Email3 = Null
Broadcast = Null
I would need some code to show the following in an unbound textbox "Last Chased: 08/01/2015"
So we can easily see the status of our marketing campaigns at any stage in the process.
I've tried using IF THEN ELSE statements in the subform's On Current event, but that populates the information from the record you've selected across all the other records on the sub as well.
So I'm wondering if it's worth setting the Control Source of the unbound textbox I want to display the campaign status in as a bunch of nested IIF statements instead?
I'm having issues with this one.
Table name is CompDates
Subform is ViewByMarket
Start date is Text13 and End Date is Text15.
I want it to filter out any matches between the 7 fields. Here is my code:
Code:
Private Sub Command19_Click()
Dim strFilter As Variant, _
strSDate As String, _
strEDate As String
'check Text13
Text13.SetFocus 'set focus to Text13 to be checked
[code].....
It will only filter for Build Date 1 and not for any of the other fields.
I have two unbound text boxes and a search button adjacent each that allows me to search for a user via two methods:
1) Payroll ID
2) Surname
They have the following code:
txtPayrollIDSearch
Code:
Private Sub txtPayrollIDSearch_AfterUpdate()
Dim sWHERE As String
sWHERE = "[PayrollID] = " & Me.txtPayrollIDSearch
sWHERE = "[PayrollID] = '" & Me.txtPayrollIDSearch & "'"
[code]...
Then minor differences between the above and the Surname search.I have two questions:
1) How do I make the search more friendly by allowing it to find partial matches, i.e., a user has a surname of 'Smith' but I want to search for 'Smi'?
2) How can I display further error messages if there aren't any matches?
I some code that is reading the first 32 lines of a text file and paste the results into 1 text box on individual lines. I would like each line to go into an individual text box.
I have 32 text boxes named txt_1, txt_2, txt_3
I have a variable named ThisLine holding the line of the text file.
I have a variable named textBoxName holding the name of the control.
Need to putting these together to write the line to a text box .
Code:
Sub ReadFile()
Me.txt_newData = ""
Me.txt_OrigData = ""
'again, we need this strange thing to exist so that ...
Dim fso As New FileSystemObject
[Code] .....
Table name: Items
Field: ItemName
Form name: Frmpayments
when I open the above form, it should create texts boxes on "frmpayments" based on how many data available in "Items" table under "Itemname" field. It'll be even better, if it can put those item's name in each text box it creates.
