Modules & VBA :: ListBox Identify Selected Item Without Looping In Whole List
May 9, 2014
Show me the selected item in a Listbox without looping in the whole list, because my Listbox is multiselect and I want only the item that selected recently.
I am having trouble with a If statement. I am trying to save a record into a table when an item is Selected (highlighted blue) in a list box. Keep in mind that my listbox is set to multiple selections. I have the following code but sometimes it works and sometimes it doest.
The reason why I am trying to get this to work is because when a item is selected I will add it to the table and when an item is deselected I will delete it from a table. See my code and pictures I have attached :
Private Sub list_audits_Click() Dim strsql As String Dim list As String Dim id As String id = Me.User_ID.Value
I have a simple listbox (single column, no multi-selection).I want to enable a command button when the user selects an item in the listbox / disable it if no items are selected.I'm using the AfterUpdate event of the listbox, as follows :
Code:
Private Sub lstOptions_AfterUpdate() Select Case Me.lstOptions.ItemsSelected.Count Case 0 Me.comConfirm.Enabled = False Case Else Me.comConfirm.Enabled = True End Select End Sub
But when I select an item from the listbox, and debug the code, the Count is always zero? Even though I can see the item selected??
Does anyone know how to get the columns of a listbox selected item and store it to a string? There is no multi-selection so it should be easier. I tried s$ = Me.list1.selected but it keeps giving me an error
I've designed access form with one listbox and added 'up' and 'down' buttons to move up and down the selected item in the listbox. i.e from its selected position to one item up when 'up' button clicked and same as one item down when down button is clicked. Any VBA code will do this functionality?
The user can select multiple items (non-sequential) on the listbox, say items 1 and 35313. I'd like the listbox to scroll (meaning display) to the currrently selected item, so that the user can see it while being processed.
I've seen stuff about property ListIndex, which does exactly that, but it's only useful when you have just ONE item selected (in a multiselect listbox apparently it deselects the rest of the items, so no point in using it, I guess, unless there's more to it!!).
So the key here is how to do the scrolling/display.
The code to loop through the listbox and process each selected item is attached:
Code: Dim vItem As Variant Dim Content as String For Each vItem In Me.lst.ItemsSelected 'scroll to selected item ??? 'processing of the selected item Content = Me.lst.Column(1, vItem) 'copy the content to do sth with it Me.lst.Selected(vItem) = False 'unselect the current item Next vItem 'go to next selected item
how to scroll to the currently selected item? Mind that I need to go through the list of selected items to process them for further use (i.e, I need them selected).
I have a MS Access database, which contains three main tables. With these I have a completed table, which holds either Yes/No within it.
One of the tables, I have linked to the Completed table as a list box, which when a job has been completed, either yes or no can be selected.
But, what I want to happen, is, when the Yes is selected, I want Access to insert the date the 'Yes' was selected, so that the employee cannot lie about the date the job was completed.
Hope I have explained this in a good enough fashion.
I don't have a clue how to go about it, could anyone help.
My list box will be used to populate a form, is it possible that once the item is dble-clicked, it reverts to a different color to let the user know it has already been selected once or can the row be locked once it has been selected?
I have managed to amend records based on the user selecting multiple items in a list box by using the following code.
Set db = CurrentDb() Set rs1 = db.OpenRecordset("Usage", dbOpenDynaset, dbAppendOnly) Set ctl = [Forms]![frmsearch]![lstSelector]
[Code].....
what I need to do now, is to loop(I think) through and amend all the records in a populate listbox, with no selections, similar to above, but without selection.
At the moment I have a query that returns a result based on what's selected in a combobox.
SELECT ComponentT.ComponentType AS ComponentType FROM ComponentT WHERE (((ComponentT.TotalComponent) Like [Forms]![DeviceF]![D_ComponentNameCmb] & "*"));
Instead of this I want to rewrite the query to return a result based on what the user has selected in a list box of items. How would this query look. Would I need to increment it in a loop checking all entries into the list box as it can vary in size and if so how?
I tried changing the last line to WHERE (((ComponentT.TotalComponent) Like [Forms]![DeviceF]![D_OutputLsb].[ItemsSelected] & "*")); which returned a result just not the right one. Is there something wrong with the syntax?
I have a database where part of it consists of an Item table and a Formula table. There is a many-to-many relationship between them so I created a junction table for this purpose.
Tables tblItem tblFormula tblFormula_Item_JNT
There is a column in tblFormula called [Priority] that is a lookup field. It has the values of "High", "Medium", "Low".
So here's what I'm trying to do: I have a query that searches against tblItem for all Items that have a value of No/False for a field called Item_Status. That's simple enough. But I also want to show the Priority of the Formula that the Item belongs to. When I add that to my initial query I get multiple results of the same Item if it belongs to more than one Formula, which I understand. But I really want an Item to show up only once.
I want the query to go through each Item (based on its Item_ID), look through all the Formulas it's in, and if at least one of those Formulas has a Priority of "High" then it will display "High" in a field (could be a calculated field) in the query results. If there are no "High" Priority Formulas, then look for if there are any "Medium" Priority Formulas, etc.
I have button on my form that uses a selected record in a listbox (non multi-select) to run code that updates a table. The code itself works great so long as there is a record selected in the listbox. If no record is selected an error is thrown. I'd prefer the end user not to ever see that error. If the end user clicks the button and no records are selected, I'd like for nothing to happen at all. I've tried several variations of checking the listbox with an if / then statement to see if records are selected and if so to exit sub, but they all throw errors when no record is selected in the listbox.
Code:
If IsNull(Me!lstHeatTreatments) Then Exit Sub End If
I'm using the following code to clear selected records from a listbox after a button is pressed:
Code:
For i = 0 To lstProducts.ListCount - 1 lstProducts.Selected(i) = False Next
The code works great except that it leaves the listbox scrolled all the way to the bottom. What is the best way to scroll back up to the top of the listbox without selecting another record?
how I can have a shortcut option when right click on each item on the list box. So I got my answer with below code that opens another form "frmshortcut" with a listbox inside that shows list of options like "new task" , "edit item" . Now my problem is (like attached picture) the shortcut list (frmshortcut) will be open in another place when I right click the mouse, it is far from location of click. Also it shows some default in access when I right click in the listbox ("subform", "cut", "copy"), actually I do not like it shows these, just I like it shows shortcut list I have defined by the list box.
Private Sub ItemList_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single) Const RIGHTBUTTON = 2 If Button = RIGHTBUTTON Then DoCmd.OpenForm "frmshortcut" ' DoCmd.OpenForm "frmshortcut", acNormal, , , , acDialog Forms!frmshortcut!txtparameter = Me.ItemList.Value End If End Sub
Access 2007-10 Listbox created: List62 (I know I need to rename it, but for now) Multi-select: Extended Row Source Type: Field List Row Source: qryFieldList Open Query: qrySelectedFields (I added primary key to first column, just to have at least one destination field).
Goal: to select multiple fields within listbox, click on command button to open query "qrySelectedFields" with selected fields from list box.This is the code I have on the command_click:
Dim varItem As Variant Dim strSQL As String If Me.List62.ItemsSelected.Count = 0 Then MsgBox "Please select one or more fields.", vbExclamation, "Healthcare REIT" Me.List62.SetFocus End If
[code]....
It does absolutely nothing - doesn't add the fields to "qrySelectedFields", doesn't open the query, notta.
I want to use an array to store data from a list box into a variable. I want it to be able to store one value, or multiple values, depending on what is selected.
Main problem: this list box feeds off a table which has employee names and their e-mails. The list box itself only shows the names, and when I select what I want the array to store is their e-mails, not their names.
Code: Dim strNames As String Dim varItem As Variant Dim intCount As Integer For Each varItem In Me.lstNames.ItemsSelected intCount = intCount + 1 Select Case Len(strNames)
[Code] ....
That code successfully displays the item I selected, but only displays the name. I need to make it look in the table and get me column #2. I also want it to be able to select more than one item at a time.
Im trying to delete values from a table based on the selected values of a listbox. The listbox values have a hidden column which related to the ID on the table to which I am trying to delete from (if that makes sense).
If I use the following code:
Code: Set ctl = Me.Results_listbox For Each varItem In ctl.ItemSelected CurrentDb.Execute "Delete * FROM Table1 WHERE Table1.ID = " & ctl.ItemData(varItem) Next varItem
I get an error stating Object doesn't support this property or method.
I have the code below and am trying to have a form allow Text Box to become visible based on selected items from a List box. Why I am getting the error listed?
Compile Error: Invalid Qualifier
Code: Private Sub specific_opt_Click() Dim users As Control Dim ctrler As String Dim xx As Long If Me.specific_opt = True Then GoTo 169
I have database with an userform called AssignWP, combobox called WPDevBy, listbox called List352 (Multi select) and table called Justified.I am trying to update one field WPDevelopedBy of the table as combobox value based on list box multi selected records.
How can I list the printers installed on the computer in a listbox? The following code list them in a message box, but I need the user to be able to select one to save it in a table. The listbox is called lstListPrinters and the table tblPrinterSelection
Code: If Printers.Count > 0 Then ' Get count of installed printers. strMsg = "Printers installed: " & Printers.Count & vbCrLf & vbCrLf ' Enumerate printer system properties. For Each prtLoop In Application.Printers
