In my database I have module that checks if tick box is True and then closes all the forms and kicks the user out of the database. However in most of my forms, there is a custom Save command in the On Click of cmdSave button and the Form_BeforeUpdate. The save requires certain things to be true so naturally if a user has made a change to a record, the form won't allow you to close it if you haven't saved your changes or undone them.
Is there anyway I can get my module to bypass certain events in the form?
I have created a ribbon for the users on all forms, and named that ribbon on each form. While I can bypass the Main ribbon (hiding backstage and most other tabs) by holding the shift key on open, the minute I open a form I am stuck with the very limited form ribbon I've named. Is there a programmatic way I can ignore this call, either when holding the shift key or some other avenue?
I have a parts order form (FrmORDER)with a list of parts selected stored in it. e.g Part #, Part Description, Qty, Price etc
I also have assemblies stored with the same detail that are composed of individual parts.
What I would like to do is
Open formA if I do a single click (to select a new part or assembly) Open formB if I do a double click (to open the contents of the selected assembly in the order form
It would seem that the following series of events occurs
When the user double-clicks a control other than a command button: MouseDown → MouseUp → Click → DblClick → MouseUp
Hence I can't actually open formB with a double click unless I remove the single click event.
I have a form which has been in use for some time now, and works extremely well for all users; as part of a recent update to that form, I added a few events to various controls; most of them are message box prompts to remind the user to do something, but one is automatic entry of text into a memo field when another field is updated, and it is really this last one that is causing an issue.
There is a command button on the form which has an embedded macro, created using the wizard - it is probably the last, or one of the last few buttons that have a macro as opposed to VBA.
Essentially, when this button is clicked, I would like a duplicate of the current record to be made (thus giving it an Autonumber ID of its own), and if possible I would like this to be done without triggering any of the after update events on the form. Is there a way to disable these events and copy a record in its entirety, re-enabling the events at the end?
I have code written which imports excel data to a access table but after the first import it fails due to duplicates, how can i tell it to ignore duplicates in the table and only copy new records?
code is below.
Code: Function SyncEmployes() Dim lngColumn As Long Dim xlx As Object, xlw As Object, xls As Object, xlc As Object
Suppose I have a table with a variety of fields; one autonumber, some text fields and some date fields.
I need code to calculate the number of fields that are NOT date fields and then code to count how many of those fields (the ones that are not date fields) have data in them.
Following is the code to count how many fields in a table had data and this works well, but now I need to find a way to ignore the date fields. How can this code be modified to do the same but ignore the date fields?
Code: Public Function PercentCompleted(Table As String, IDProject As Long, TotalFields As Single) As Double
Dim sampO As DAO.Recordset, iCtr As Long, strSQL As String, Percent As Double 'Takes the fields based on the projectID strSQL = "SELECT *" & _ "FROM " & Table & " WHERE IDProject = " & IDProject Set sampO = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
I'm using Access 2007..I have a table that contains transaction records from a bound form.When the user enters a certain type of transaction, I create a corresponding transaction in the after insert event.
Example User record - tranId = 1, tranAmt = 10, tranType = DISB, tranAssocID = 0 My record - tranId = 2, tranAmt = 10, tranType = RECV, tranAssocID = 1
When the user deletes a record, I want to delete my corresponding record using the tranAssocID ( delete * from tran_tbl where tranAssocID = (the tranID of the user's record)
Problem: 1) I don't know how to save the tranID of the users record 2) I don't know how to reference the saved tranID in the delete statement.
I'm using the before delete confirm event to try to save the users tranID to no avail.I'm using the after delete confirm to delete my record in a case statement - acDeleteOK...I tried to save the value of the ID in the form (Me.tid) to a public long variable, a hidden field on the form, and a temporary variable to no avail.
I have this below which some people cant run and some people can. All are using 2010 runtime version. Apart from the one guy who can run the macro who has full 2010 version. I have 2010 runtime installed and i can also run the macro fine.
Private Sub Option12_Click() On Error GoTo Option12_Click_err Dim CntlPay As String Dim Lable As String CntlPay = "D"
I explain briefly what is my task, When the user selects a different name from the list, I would like to link it automatically with the current Date() . I want to do it for every single name of the field so that in case I need, it would be possible to track for how many days that particular name of the list has been clicked.
I explain it better…My DB aims to monitor some procedures that have 3 status, these are:
On Working, Expired Revoked
Given the above I would like to track when every single procedure starts is “on working” and when it ends it. I want to automatically link every name of the combobox with an event that update a field of a table that monitor the beginning and to another that monitor the end (when another status is selected). After that my aim would be to calculate the diff between the two in order to have a number of the days that every single procedure is stuck into a single status. Do you think is something feasible? I hope to have explain it well… If you need I can try to explain it better
Is there a way, in access db or in its VBA, to capture the two columns of data from the combo box so that can monitor them?
I have wrote a database in access 2010 and the database works fine for me (I am the db admin with full control).I gave the database to a group in which most of them also have no issue with the file. They are able to use the database with no issues..One of those members gets an error message when completing the initial step in the database: (select a drop down item from a combo box)
Code: The expression After Update you entered as the event propoerty setting produced the following error: Object or class does not support the set of events
Something I cant seem to understand is why is this happoening on 5 machines but not on the 6th, they all have the same PC set up so there should be no error on one particular machine.
I have a table that contains many records of events. I've already created a multiple item form based on the table. My form contains 2 textboxes for input of a date range and a dropdown box to select "yes or no".
What I am having difficulty with is the query that will count the records by type insert it into the recordsource such that the multiple item form will appear like this:
Event Type| Count Input | 4 Output | 2 Update | 3
How do I go about doing so? I have been testing with this simple query:
Code: Private Sub Command8_Click() Dim Task As String
Task = "SELECT EventType, Count(EventType) FROM Final GROUP BY EventType;" Me.RecordSource = Task End Sub
But the column that contains the count keeps appearing as #name?
I'm using this control to allow users to select a date as input to a subform. The control is working just fine, but I have a problem, I need to reset the value to today on certain events (for instance a reset button to reset the values back to today). I have tried:
Me!calThru.Today and Me.calThru.Value = Date and calThru.Value = Date
I'm working on creating an events log. In my table I've got a field that pulls the individual's username (that they use to log into the computer) and logs it against their log entry.
As part of my query (for my daily events log report) I'm pulling up said username.
I'd like to give access to the specific user to edit his (and only his) entries from the report, but I'm getting a type mismatch with the below code:
Code: If me.UsernameID = "KraussLJ" Or Environ$("Username") Then DoCmd.OpenForm "frmShiftLog" DoCmd.FindRecord Me.ID, acStart, , acSearchAll, , acAll Else MsgBox ("You are not authorized to edit this entry") End If
(before you ask, "KraussLJ" is our ops manager who insists on having final editorial control over the shift log before sending it higher up the chain)
I can get the msgbox to run if I block out the
Code : Environ$("Username")
, but beyond that I'm a little stuck. Should this be a dlookup function or am I overanalyzing this way too much?
I have a form with a tab control and an option group (frame). When I built the layout of the contents of the first tab, the frame responded properly to click events. Now that I have copied them onto the tab control, the events seem to disappear.
(When I check the events for the controls, they are all still there, and selected by the Properties table).
I know it's probably one of the "doesn't use Access very much, does he" type of situations, so how to get these controls working again!
Here is the Form Code listing.
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Sub SetSourceDescription() If Me.frRunMode.Value = 0 Then Me.lblSourceType.Caption = "Source for this run will be the Extract .pst file(s)"
We have an ActiveX grid control, 10Tec iGrid, written in VB6. One of its method, Group, used to group rows, raises the AfterAutoGroupRowCreated event so the developer can adjust the look and contents of every group row created during the automatic process of grouping.
When our ActiveX grid is hosted on an MS Access form and we call the Group method while populating the grid in the form's Open event, the AfterAutoGroupRowCreated event isn't triggered. But this event definitely works as expected in other development environments, and even in MS Access if we call Group from the form's Load event.
Is it a well know issue of MS Access, when any events of ActiveX controls aren't triggered while "executing" the Open event
I am trying to build a database for the handling of events for our clients. I therefore do have four tables named "Client", "Invitation", "Invitation status" and "Events". The table invitation includes an own primary key and the primary keys from the tables "Invitation", "Invitations status" and "Events" as so called secondary keys. I have now built an ongoing form, based on the "Client" table.
This form has a list field which includes the upcoming events. All our clients are listed below this form (as it is an ongoing form). After the name of the client I do have a drop down field calles "status" (source is the table "Invitation status" where we can remark if the client is invited, has confirmed his attend and so on.
The problem is now as follows: I am able to put in the status of a specific client for an event. The result is saved in the table as wanted. I am also able to change the status and this will be saved in the table as well. What doesn't work is that if I want to change the event, the status doesn't change. This means that if a client hast the status invited for event X he has the status for all events, which shouldn't be. The aim would be that if I am changing the event, the status also has to change.
I have 2 tbl's one is class and the other is professor... in my logic i create a new class for each student however, I am trying to make label for the professor and since a professor can teach more than one class i need only one label. How do i do this
I've been looking for this one for a while. In my query I'm using a date field to extract dates using the between And function. I'm refrencing to txt boxes within a dialog form within the query.
For example: Between [Forms]![frmViewByCatagory]![TxtStartDate] And [Forms]![frmViewByCatagory]![txtEndDate]
The field actually only lists years rather whole dates . I want to find a way to add an expression so that I can leave the txt boxes blank and access will ingnore the txt boxes and give me all the records.
Does anyone have an idea what I can do here. I thought the IIF function along with Null might work but I don't know the syntax.
Hi guys, is there any code u can write that ignores this hidden command that closes the form when you press the X button in the top right corner of the form.
I have a form where the user can choose from a drop down menu, values like Name= James.90 Date=1/10/07.
Then it would return the record with James.90 And That date in it
But my problem is you have to choose a value for both boxes. Is there a way to ignore it if the field is left blank.
My current code is
SELECT timesheet.WeekEnding, timesheet.FName, timesheet.Company, timesheet.Project, timesheet.CTR, timesheet.Comments, timesheet.Total, timesheet.Project_Title FROM timesheet WHERE (((timesheet.WeekEnding)=[Forms]![FormBeta]![Week]) AND ((timesheet.Company)=[Forms]![FormBeta]![Company]) AND ((timesheet.Project)=[Forms]![FormBeta]![Project]));
I have some expressions built to calculate totals in a query. Here is the first
Engineer Total: [Engineer Hrs]*[Engineer rate].
This works when a user adds hrs to a table and the rate is a default number.Then a total from 4 totals similar to the Engineer total are added together here:
Total Rate: [Designer Total]+[Quality Total]+[Coordinator Total]+[Engineer Total].
Works perfect if all 4 Hrs fields have data. The problem is not every entry will have hrs in each field..when this happens the Total rate does not calculate. So long story short, how do I make the Total rate bypass the blanks or do I need to make the Engineer total force a zero on blanks?
In a database am building, I want to run a query with the criteria dependant on which field the user populates in a form.
The form has a number of fields that the user can select from including our reference number, the client's reference number and the site address.
I would like the user to be able to select the site address using a wildcard so that they can enter a part of the address such as "This Street" instead of "45 This Street" and the user be presented with all of the records matching "This Street".
I tried using the criteria:
Code: Like "*" & [Forms]![SearchJobs]![SearchAddressLine1] & "*"
Which works perfectly as long as this field is populated. If this field is not populated, entering details in any other field bring up every record in the database.
I have 3 queries populating 3 subreports on a report, i have a checkbox on my main form i launch the report from - i reference it in a filter on the form to ignore certain error types - id like it do to the same in the queries that populate the reports
So the reports atm give - an over all count of error types, a count per person and then a breakdown on type per person
Thats all fine but id like the option to ignore one type of error (as we sometimes look at it and sometimes dont).
The problem I am having is I am using a =Sum([SumOfCountOfUseData]) statement to get a number of instances data is used from a table this works with one exception it counts deleted instances and sums those as well?
I'm using access 2007 and have some date fields in my forms, i'd like to be able to blank out weekends and public holidays from the calender/date selector in these fields so theres no way those dates can be selected. Is this possible? Thanks.
I have been tasked with completing an audit of approximately 10,000 items, to which I have generated a list of 40 questions (fields) for each record. I began collating the information in Excel, but found myself getting lost and even experienced major data loss on at least 2 occasions. I have now decided to ditch Excel and use Access 2003 instead.
I have imported my master spreadsheet, however as I have various contacts sending in their respective information in Excel spreadsheets with same types of fields, and also need to import data that has already been sent in. Im thinking that it would be better for me to create update and append queries, especially as there is going to be a stage 2, where I will be requesting additional (field) information.
There is a big chance that some of the contacts will send in info for the same item (record), which means that there is a risk of duplication, which I have removed as I have a unique identifier which will be the primary key! Is that right or should it be indexed?
The main problem that I have is that I want Access to ignore the target cell if it has a value in it! Meaning that I would not like Access 2003 to overwrite the cell with valid data in it, with a blank cell! As I need the database to grow!
Can anyone suggest a way that I can do this please.
