Modules & VBA :: How To Use Public Variable In Query
Oct 10, 2013
I have a query
Code:
Select distinct [tbl_DTP/CTP].id_zlecenia, [tbl_DTP/CTP].Folia_na_lakier_UV, [tbl_DTP/CTP].Wykrojnik, [tbl_DTP/CTP].Makieta, [tbl_DTP/CTP].Matryca_do_tloczenia, [tbl_DTP/CTP].Matryca_do_zlocenia, [tbl_DTP/CTP].kalka, tblGoraZleceniaRoboczeLaczenie.NumerZlecenia from [tbl_DTP/CTP] inner join tblGoraZleceniaRoboczeLaczenie on [tbl_DTP/CTP].id_zlecenia = tblGoraZleceniaRoboczeLaczenie.NumerZlecenia where tblGoraZleceniaRoboczeLaczenie.NumerZlecenia = r1;
Where "r1" is a public variable as string.The variable has value e.g. "10/145" But query can't get this value and all the time ask about value from "r1" :/

I am using a public function to feed a variable string to a query. So far I have got:
Code:
Public Function ClientStreetModule(firstLVar As Variant, streetVar As Variant, newFL As Variant) As String
Dim cslStr1 As String, newStreet As String
newStreet = Right(streetVar, Len(streetVar) - Len(newFL))
[code]....
However, I only need to use newStreet as the true part of iif, in which instance all are longer. At least I think this is the problem. I realise I might need to use NZ but am not sure how. Why it is evaluating and giving errors for all records and not just when the iif criteria is true as I want it to?

Is it possible to open another database, set a Public boolean variable in a module?
in db1: Open database by Access.Application, OpenCurrentDatabase, setting obj to db2.CurrentProject, loop through main objects
in db2: Public ByPassCloseVar As Boolean is in a module ModLinkTblReview
I have a process that opens up a database runs through all of its objects to get their properties and values. There is a form that is set up on Unload to close the tool if the variable is set to False. When I open the form to get the properties and their values, then close the form, it closes the database. I would like to set the variable to true in order for the database to stay open.
Thought something like this would work: db2.Modules!ModLinkTblReview.ByPassCloseVar = True
Indicates that method or data member does not exist.

I have a module that has a global variable defined as shown below
Module: initGlobals
-----------------------
Code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Public strGlobalUserId As String
Sub initvar()
strGlobalUserId = "Myuserid"
End Sub
This is invoked in a login form("frmLogin") and it displays the above value before I replace it with the one that is accepted in the form.
Here is the code from the login form
Code:
strGlobalUserId = Me.cboEmployee.Value
When the password is successful, I close the login form and open a form called "frmMainForm". In the form_open event of the "frmMainForm", I am trying to display the user id using strGlobalUserId but it just has spaces. What am I doing wrong?

I have a backup subroutine which automatically triggers when the front-end is closed down (it just takes the back-end, makes a copy and compacts it).It's driven off a hidden form which I use to track who is connected to the BE at any given time. This form is opened as part of the AutoExec when the FE is opened and writes some basic user info to a table. When the form is closed, it updates the table and fires the backup process before quitting Access.
Part of that user tracking process checks to see if the same user is already connected - either elsewhere (i.e. on a different machine) or on the same machine (i.e. opening a second instance of the same FE) - which is undesirable (and, frankly, unlikely, but not impossible) A brief prompt appears to explain that they can only be connected once, at which point the application is quit (to enforce the rule) This also works fine.
I would add a public boolean variable, set it to True by default, then switch it to False if the same user is already logged on before quitting Access.Trouble is, the variable doesn't seem to be holding its value? Here is the Load event for the tracking form :
Code:
Private Sub Form_Load()
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
Dim dbs As Database
Dim rst As Recordset
Dim strSQL As String
Call InterfaceInitialise
blnPerformBackup = True
[code]...
For some reason, blnPerformBackup is False every time, even though I set it to True at the very start of the Load event (and it is a Public variable, defined in a separate module where I store all my Public constants and variables)
why it is not retaining its value from the Load event? I've checked and it does get set to True - and when I debug, it remains True - but at runtime it reverts back to False by the time it reaches the decision whether to backup or not?

Question for Documentation purpose: Should the Public Type be declared in its own module?
Or should it be declared in a standard module where non-public functions use it? It is not for a Form module use.
For a Rule Engine, a function is calling one record on 4 different SQL Views (as linked tables) that have the same field format.
For speed, the recordset should only be opened once. However, there are multiple values that must be returned to the result table multiple fields.
One way to return multiple values is an Array. That has over head too.
Another way is to create multiple public variables. Not my choice for documentation. Another is to create a string.
This is a pure code module with several non public functions / subs. What is the documentation preference? List a Public Type close to the function, or place it in the Global module?
Background: A function can only have one return value.
By creating a public Type, multiple values can be returned.
Code:
Public Type Income
Wages As Currency
Dividends As Currency
Other As Currency
Total As Currency
End Type
Use this structure as the return type for a function. In a real situation, the function would look up your database tables to get the values, but the return values would be assigned like this:
Code:
Function GetIncome() As Income
GetIncome.Wages = 950
GetIncome.Dividends = 570
GetIncome.Other = 52
GetIncome.Total = GetIncome.Wages + GetIncome.Dividends + GetIncome.Other
End Function
To use the function, you could type into the Immediate Window:
GetIncome().Wages
(Note: the use of "Public" in the Type declaration gives it sufficient scope.)
Important Notice The way this function is called will work, but is wrong from the aspect it re-calls the recordset over and over.
See the proper way to use it submitted below.

I've got a private sub that runs when the form loads. I want it to get the id of the record which has opened this new form.
The public sub populates the variable but it's Empty going back into my private sub. I'm sure its a simple school boy error but it has me stumped!
I want it public as I need to keep that id as new records are added in the form.
Private Sub Form_Load()
FRStudentFundingRequestID
'fundingrequest = FundinRequestID
Me.txtFKFReq = FundingRequest
End Sub
__________________________________
Public Sub FRStudentFundingRequestID()
FundingRequest = [Forms]![frmFundingRequest]![txtpk]
End Sub

I am working on a database where I want some specific information displayed on a form, preferably on the form header. I want to display this on all of my forms. In a standard module, I have a code segment that runs a query returning values, and I assign those values to my public variables. I run this code segment triggered by "on activate" of each form.
The variables contain an Event Date, and an Event Name. I want this information to appear on each form. How do I get this data onto my form as part of the form header, or if cannot put on header section, then in the detail section?

Error 91 - Object variable or With block variable not set
I am getting this error telling me that an object variable is not set.
I know which variable it is but when I step through the debugger it sets the variable and all is fine? Issue is that public variable of a class is not getting set when the VBA Editor is not open?

I have a form in which am gathering information from the user to populate a table(Customer Master List) and at the same time (btn_Copy_Click Event)transferring the info to another form(Case) populating another table(Customer_Call). It is working fairly well, My issue is that before transferring the info I need to run a check(SQL Query) to make sure the customer or actually the Well ID don't exist in the Customer_Call table. I am trying to do this in pieces .....
1) capturing the well_Id in a variable(WellID) in the first form and using that to build the sql string and query the Customer_Call table.
2)once that works place it in a if / else clause to copy or not with appropriate messages
With that I am stuck in step 1
It works up until Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(strSQL) the i get Run-time error '3061' Too few parameters. Expected 1.
Code:
Dim WellID As String
Dim strModel As String
Dim strSQL As String
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
WellID = Forms!f_Customer_Lookup.Well_ID
MsgBox WellID ' testing to see if it picks up the correct box in form
strSQL = "SELECT Customer_Call.[Cus_Well_ID] " & _
"FROM Customer_Call " & _
"WHERE Customer_Call.[Cus_Well_ID] = WellID;"
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
strModel = rst!Cus_Well_ID
rst.Close
MsgBox rst ' Testing to see if the strSQL captured the data
Set rst = Nothing
End Sub

I am trying to read the value of a control on an open form from a Public Function in a Module with no luck. I suspect the issue is syntax.
Code:
Public Function MyFunction(varFormName As String, varControlName As String)
If Forms(varFormName).Controls(varControlName) = True Then ' = 0 even when control is -1
Else
End If
End Function
The variables pass through fine but the If statement equals zero regardless of the state of the form's control. I tried several variations to no avail.
If Forms(varFormName).Form.Controls(varContactControl ) = True Then
If Forms(varFormName)!Form.Controls(varContactControl ) = True Then
Etc.

I have an issue with this case select below. The DelayStart is time so lets say I put in the debug window
?DatePart("h", #04:00pm#)
The result would be 16 which is correct BUT the issue is my second shift starts at 04:01pm and the result is still 16 untill 5pm. How do I fix this so I get the correct shifts? Im guesing use something other than DatePart but what?
'Daylight 6:00am - 4:00pm
'Afternoon 4:00pm - 2:00am
'Midnight 2:00am - 6:00am
Code:
Public Function getShiftForRecord(DelayStart As Variant)
On Error Resume Next
Select Case DatePart("h", DelayStart)
Case 6 To 16 'Daylight 6:00am - 4:00pm

I have built an access application that contains a set of buttons along the top of every form that serve as navigation.* These buttons each perform the same function on every form they are on. (menu opens the main menu, etc) I have database macros to assign each button the same function but I still have to go through each form and manually assign them. I was wondering if it was possible to define a public function that on db open will look for all buttons with a certain name and assign them the macro. (so all buttons called cmdmainmenu will have the OpenMainMenu macro assigned and so on).Before you go there, I have already tried the navigation form and set all forms as subforms.

Is there any way of opening recordsets as public or global in a form? E.g. if i do something like
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("TblCustomers", dbOpenSnapshot, dbReadOnly)
the variable rs should be available in all the private sub i have on that form, and i should be able to access records without opening database/ record sets for individual subs.

I am designing a Public Function F()
I want this function to populate value from a any field selected from any table to any text box in any form ...... Lets say in a Database named TestDB we have a Table named tblTest , a Form named frmTest and in this form( frmTest ) we have one Bound Combo Box named cmbTest and one unbound TextBox named txtTest
We assume that the table tblTest has three fields : TestID , FName and LName .
We also assume that there are already some records in the Table tblTest .
If the function F() is already programmed it should take as arguments as it follows :
F(FormName as??? ,ControlName as ???, TableName as ???, FieldName as ???, ID_Field_Name_of_the_Table as ???, Combo_box_selected_ID as ???)
In result the function should (probably) DLookup (FieldName , TableName , ID_Field_Name_of_the_Table = Combo_box_selected_ID ) and then store the value in a variable ( probably Variant ???) , lets say called varSetValue.
The problem is IF this is the correct way to handle that issue , than what should i do next.... I really don't know how to pass a Control's name to a function from the Event module of the ComboBox -
I mean - how can I obtain the value so it is usable for the function .... What data type should be the function arguments so I can use them to set a value for a control in any form .
In example : If the Dlookup() is somehow successfull then I want to assign the varSetValue to the txtTest what should I do : FormName.ControlName.Value = varSetValue >??????
I have read a lot materials but couldn't find a good answer for that , and aswell what data type should be the arguments that the function accepts and how do I obtain Controls and Forms names so I could use them in the function as described above .

I would like to declare Global or Public variables from a table so they can be added to or edited easily. I had the following function to do this with Alpha Five but at the moment my lack of knowledge of Access VBA is making this task difficult.
Here is the function that I use in Alpha:
FUNCTION udVars AS A (udTabName AS C )
dim codeStr as c
t=table.open_session(udTabName,file_ro_shared)
t.fetch_first()
while .not. t.fetch_eof()
[Code] ....
It opens a table reads in the records and then makes them into a string the string would look something like this:
"Public EuroRate as Single = 0.885"
I would then need to use this string to declare the variables but not sure what command to use - I was looking at the Eval function last night but couldn't get this to work...
The table would hold strings for all the above so you would have:
My_Var (variable name)
My_Typ (type of variable e.g. Single)
My_Val (value e.g. 0.885)
The table would hold as many variables as required, some would be dates, some paths for making directories and some would be numbers.

I look at a lot of files to see when they were last updated. I wanted to write a generic procedure to manage that so ..
Code:
Public fDate As Variant
Public vField As String
Public vFile As String
'GTSdata
vField = "txt_gts_data"
[Code] ....
What I hoped Me.vField would do is update the date field [txt_gts_data] on my form with the date the file was last saved.
i.e. me. txt_gts_data = fDate
What actually happens is the variable vfield gets updated from "txt_gts_data" to 19/08/2014 then later code falls over because the fieldname is lost .
Me.[vField] corrects itself to me.vField (and does not work)
Me!vfield falls over (cannot find the field vField, not surprising J)
How do I say update the contents of the variable, not the variable itself?

I am currently trying to create an update query (building a SQL String in VBA for a command button click event) to update a variable's value into a table.
Basically, there are 2 tables, displayed in 2 sub froms within the same main form. (OldTable and NewTable for arguments sake)
The basic method I want to implement is that a user highlights a record in the subform of "NewTable". (This value is stored as a variable "NewJPNUM" This value is then to be inserted into the highlighted row (or rows) of table OldTable on command button click.
So the basic idea is a user highlights a row in one table and this value is stored as a variable "NewJPNUM" . The user then highlights a row or rows in "OldTable" and the value from variable "NewJPNUM" is then written to field "NewJPNUM" in "NewTable" on command button click.
I am not experienced with Access but have decent experience in Excel / VBA so not really sure of best practice methods etc.

I have made this sql statement in VBA where rubriek = a variable but I dont know how to implement a variable in a nested query.
SELECT "rubriek, SUM(verkoopprijs) as prijzen
FROM voorwerp
(inner join VoorwerpInRubriek on voorwerp.voorwerpnummer = VoorwerpInRubriek.voorwerp)
inner join Rubriek on rubriek.rubrieknummer = VoorwerpInRubriek.rubriekOpLaagsteNiveau
where rubriek in (select rubrieknummer
from rubriek
where rubriek = variable name
)
group by rubriek"
Do I have to treat it as a normal select query or is there something speical that I have to do ?

There are two forms to be filled out on Access. One (maybe two) come from our Contractor. They will input the Bill of Materials, Scrap Rates, Inventory Turns and Cost. This goes to a non-official Bill of Materials table. The second form comes from our Supplier. They will input the the cost they charge the contractor for the given Bill of Materials. Access runs a report that will automatically compare the Contractor costs with the Supplier costs for each component on the Bill of Materials. If the component costs match, it will highlight the Contractor cost green, it they do not, it highlights red.
If all numbers are green, I hit the "Approve" button on the report and there are three queries that need to be ran. An Update Query that changes all the statuses for the components from "Unapproved" to "Approved", an Append Query to add the Bill of Materials to our official table, and a Delete Query that removes the components from the unofficial Bill of Materials table. Once this is all done, an e-mail needs to be sent to Finance to roll costing for the SKU. I do not know the best way, but I currently am having getting the Code to do the following:
1. Put the specific SKU in the e-mail, which is variable.
2. Change the Criteria of the Queries so they only run for the specific approved sku
3. Get the "Approve" and "Deny" buttons on the report to only function for the specific SKU.
Currently all the SKUs that are in "Unapproved" status show on the report. Once I hit approve, it wants to approve all the SKUs, not just the one I'm looking at.
Code:
Sub Command36_Click()
'''Current Issue: Need Query Criteria to be SKU specific'''
'Update Query to change BOM status to "Approved"
DoCmd.OpenQuery "(2302) BOM - 3PM Entry Query Approved", acViewNormal, acEdit

I have a query which returns a list of reports I have created this session.
I want a button that when I click it runs the query and then stores the results into a variable.
I looked online and found a pretty good connection code and loop code to get the data but I'm having a hard time getting it to store into a variable.
What I want to do next is using code print the reports that were listed in the query.
That Means I need to be able to take that variable and pop the information off it, storing it into another variable (or if i can use an array just use that) and use that to concatenate into a command to print that report.
I am having problems with the syntax of this though. I think I'm just missing some key elements.

I have the following function that I found online. Unfortunately I can't remember where I got it since I've had it for a little while. Today, when I tried to actually put it to use it didn't work.
I'm calling it from a form as follows: CompactDB (tblHotword)
tblHotword is just a random table from the back end. My understanding of the function was that it would use that table to connect and get the file name of the back end.
Whenever I run it, Access pops up a window that says "Object required" and nothing else. It doesn't look like a standard error message popup. When I click 'OK', Access continues with the rest of the code as if nothing went wrong. The function doesn't run though.
Code:
Public Function CompactDB(TableName As String) As Boolean
On Error GoTo Err_CompactDB
Dim stFileName
DoCmd.Hourglass True
stFileName = db.TableDefs(TableName).Connect
[code]....
