I am using an input box to find a Street name in a record using the following:
Dim rs As Object
Dim strCriteria As String
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmStreets"
strCriteria = InputBox("Please enter Street Name")
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmStreets"

I know that if the search criteria is a number, then the .findfirst will work OK, as I am also using that, but I am not seeing where the " or ' or * should go so the correc

I want a user to enter a number into an input box and then based on the number in this box a form will be opened with records associated only with that employee number. (All employee numbers are stored as text)The code below opens the form, but it is blank.
Private Sub cmdOpenAddKeys_Click()
Dim EmployeeNumber As String
EmployeeNumber = InputBox("Please Enter Employee Number:")
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmAddKeys", acNormal, , "[Forms]![frmAddKeys]![empno]=" & EmployeeNumber
End Sub

Instead of using an update query, so my Audit Trail will continue to update correctly, I'd like to use an input box and run a function that performs much like an update query.
My problem is, only one out of 4 records updates correctly.
Code:
Me.txtTranTo = InputBox("Enter Location Transferring To:", "Location Transferring To", "")
Me.txtTranFrom.Value = Me.Location 'Old location
Me.Location.Value = Me.txtTranTo 'New location
The txtTranTo and txtTranFrom are unbound text boxes.
EDIT: Forgot to mention that this is in a continuous form.

I have a form that has a subform on it. The main form shows a category of furniture and has custom navigation buttons and a search text box for asset numbers and command button that runs the search. The subform shows the asset numbers associated with that furniture category, sometimes there is only one asset number, in other cases there could be 60. There is a scroll bar to scroll through the asset numbers when there are too many to see in the initial window.
The buttons all work as they should except when I search for an asset number that is part of a category that has too many asset numbers to show in the main window. When this happens the "previous" and "next" navigation buttons do not take you to the previous or next record. All of the other buttons on the form work though - you can go to the first, or the last record, and you can search for a new asset.This is the code for the search:
Code:
Private Sub cmdAssetSearch_Click()
Dim rs As Object
If IsNull(Me.TextAsset) Or Me.TextAsset = "" Then
MsgBox "Please type in an asset number to search for.", vbOKOnly
Me.TextAsset.SetFocus
[code]....
I've also attached a picture of what I mean when I say there are more asset numbers than what the window shows.

Okay, I've been working on this database for weeks now, I'm almost done, there is a light at the end of the tunnel and my boss is anxious to implement the db as I'm only here for 3 more weeks and it MUST be completed, tested, error checked before I leave. So I'm running out of time FAST!
Okay, the problem is simple. I'm using a Data Access Page in Access to build a nice little front-end for my database for my co-workers to use. On this DAP (Data access page) I have an Input box that allows the users to browse their directory and select a file. I need to take the path/file name that pops up in the input box and just save it to the table. I can take care of all the other elements.
So, through DAP, how do I save the value in the inputbox into my table. Please, any help would be great! :eek:

Hi,
I have created the following function in my datebase so that i could specify the date a query works from.
Option Compare Database
Function GetParmValue() As Date
GetParmValue = InputBox("Please enter the date you wish to update!?")
End Function
I have a button on a form that runs the query in question, there is also an identical query that needs to be ran using the same result from the input box but rather than it display the input box twice i wondered if there was a way i could use the result from one of the boxes with both queries!?
Here is the code for the button;
Private Sub bImport5_Click()
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Update"
DoCmd.OpenQuery "UpdateFuture"
DoCmd.OpenQuery "MoveFuture"
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
MsgBox "Files have now been updated to the specified date and moved to the Future Dated table!", vbOKOnly, "Update Complete"
End Sub
Any ideas guys?
Many thanks
Tim

Using vba code I want to populate the search box found in the navigation bar. I don't want to filter the form as it's important the user can scroll up and down to see other records in the continuous form. At the moment the user has to manually enter search to find the record.

I managed to create a form that is able to search keywords on Access 2007. However, the keyword search must be exact to what is contained in the table.
For example, I stored "red blue yellow" into the database, and I can only search "red blue yellow", "red blue" or "blue yellow" in order to call that data.
How do I make it such that I am able to search "blue red yellow", "yellow blue red" or "red yellow blue"?
These are my current codes:
Code:
Private Sub txtSearch_AfterUpdate()
Dim strWhere As String
Dim strWord As String
Dim varKeywords As Variant
Dim i As Integer
Dim IngLen As Long
[Code] ....

I have a database for my school that I'm creating to log books read by Pupils.
I have a Read table linked to both to a Pupil table and a Book table to say that the book has been read.
When I click on a Book in a listbox this adds a record to the Read table for the pupil - this code works great.
I want to check that the book is not already there but my code is not working.
Below the ID should come from the Pupil table and BookID from the Read table.
I think this is the problem....
The code stops on the Set*rs* = *db.OpenRecordset(mysql, *dbOpenSnapshot) with "Data type mismatch in criteria expression".
At this point mysql is "SELECT Count (ID) as Total from Read WHERE ID = '952' and BOOKID = '13';"
Option Compare Database
Private Sub List5_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
Rem ------ 1st SECTION
Dim db As DAO.Database

creating a query using vba. I have a form with FROM and TO textboxes(Formatted as Short Date)....What I'm hoping is:
1. When I put a date in FROM textbox...the query should show records from the date selected onward.
2. When I put a date in TO textbox...the query should show records from the date selected backwards.
3. When I put a date in FROM textbox and TO textbox the query should show data between this two dates?

In my developing application I am making use of searchboxes to narrow down the amount of records. On a form I have a textbox and a subform with a table connected. In the textbox I can type a character that will be used in an 'Instr' SQL query. I am using the code to query one field. (see code below) In what direction do I have to look to make this code usefull to search through two fields. In my case that will be Tag and Function.
Code:
Private Sub mnu3_txt_UnitbookSearch_Change()
Dim SQLstring As String
SQLstring = "Instr(Tag, " & "'" & Me.mnu3_txt_UnitbookSearch.Text & "'" & ")"
ReReadDescriptions SQLstring

I need to find out where the field called "R_SHIFT" is being referenced in all our MS Access queries. I just need the query name so I can go into the query and change the name from "R_SHIFT" to "SHIFT"
I was thinking there was a function for Modules to Find Field? I have never done any Modules before..

I have a main form "Furniture_CatCodeAssets" which shows detail specifics about certain furniture item codes (width, height, colour etc.). I have a subform "Furniture_AssetsSubform" which shows all of the asset numbers associated with that furniture item code.I have a combo box that allows you to filter by furniture category, that then updates a list box that shows only the item codes associated with that category. When an item code is selected in the list box the main form and the subform update to show what was selected. (I mention this only in case it is causing an interruption - they work perfectly.)
What I am trying to do now is add a text box and button that will allow you to search in the subform to find a specific asset number and go to that item code on the main form.
I have the following code on the command button:
Set rst = Forms!furniture_CatCodeAsset.Furniture_AssetsSubfo rm.Form.RecordsetClone
rst.FindFirst "[Asset Number]=" & Me.textSearch
If Not rst.NoMatch Then
Forms!furniture_CatCodeAsset!Furniture_AssetsSubfo rm.Form.Bookmark = rst.Bookmark
Else
MsgBox "No match found, please check your asset number and try again."
End If
Me.textSearch = Null
rst.Close
Set rst = Nothing
Which returns the message box that nothing was found even though I know I that asset number exists.

I am using the following code to filter my form with a search box:
Code:
Me.RecordSource = "qryCompanies"
Me.Filter = "CompanyName Like '*" & Me.SearchTxt & "*' Or webpage Like '*" & Me.SearchTxt & "*' Or PriorName Like '*" & Me.SearchTxt & "*'"
Me.FilterOn = True
[Code] ....
It works great with one minor issue: if I try to search for a name containing an apostrophe, I get a syntax error. So, it won't find Children's Hospital for example.

If Not IsNull(Len(Me.txtSearch)) Then

I have recently built a database to keep track of all the inventory counts for our technicians. This process was originally in Excel and they wanted to move it to Access in order to automate it. They have also decided that they still want to maintain the original Excel schedule by adding dates each time a step is completed. I currently have code that will go to an existing spreadsheet and add data from the database URL... I was wondering if there is a way to modify this code so that it will look for a specific name in the spreadsheet, go to the end of that row and enter today's date.If so, what modifications would need to be made to the code to get it to work?

Ok I'm building a Text Search box that "Live Filters" the results in a ListBox control on the same form.
After typing in a value (Say, for Customer First Name like "Steven") I want the code to do the following:
1. If there is no value in the listbox that matches when the user presses the enter key....open the New Customer form - THIS WORKS
2. If there is a single value in the list, then open this record in the customer form when the user presses the Enter key Receiving a Syntax Missing Operator error on this line:
Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmContacts", , , "[ID]=" & Me.ListCustomers.Column(0)
However, I use this exact code on a button elsewhere in my project (NOT within an IF Function) and it works perfectly fine!
Code:
Private Sub txtSearch_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
If KeyCode = vbKeyReturn Then
If Me.ListCustomers.ListCount = 0 Then
CmdNewCustomer_Click
[Code] .....

I have a simple bit of code that searches for a [User Name] field the basic idea is I place a field called "search" on a form and set its on change to
Private Sub Search_Change()
Search.SetFocus
strtarget = Search.Text
If strtarget < "a" Then strtarget = "a"
[User Name].SetFocus
DoCmd.FindRecord strtarget, acStart, False, acSearchAll, False, acCurrent, True
Search.SetFocus
Search.SelStart = 100
End Sub
it takes the text entered in the search field and calls it Strtarget then resets focus on the field I want eg [user name] once the search has done it resets the focus on the search field so you can carry on typing this works very well unless the search string starts with a letter I.
