Modules & VBA :: Populate Combo Box With Names Of Installed Fonts On Computer

Jan 22, 2014

I need to give users the ability to change the font of a field in a report. The field shows a barcode.

I thought of using the CommonDlg class to show the Windows font-selecting dialog box, but installed barcode fonts show as a barcode. I need to show the font name.

So I need to populate a combo box with the names of all fonts installed on a computer.
The fonts reside in C:windowsfonts

I have searched Google for a solution but cannot find one.

How do I populate a combo box with the names of all fonts installed on a computer?

Print A List Of Table Field Names

Dec 20, 2005

Just a quickie- i hope. :rolleyes:

I am in the process of trying to merge two large databases. I have four tables that really should be one to work in the new DB. I just need to be able to print a list of fields in each table so that I can work on the new combined structure before making the changes. I know I can use the documenter but this produces a very comprehensive list which is much more than I need.
Is there anyway of producing a similar list without the detail, just showing the field names.

Thanks

Multivalue List In Table - Displaying Names Separated By Comma

Sep 30, 2011

I created a multivalue list in my table. It contains a list of names and a checkbox. I designed the form based on this and am able to check off multiple names. When I go back to look at the table, it stores in each name separated by a comma. So far so good.

When I create a report to display the data, it displays it as 1,2,3..etc., instead of the names separated by a comma.

What do I need to do to display the names ?

Form With List Boxes Won't Populate Underlying Table

Oct 10, 2013

I have a form called Adaptation Form in which Last Name and Course Number are entered.

The user looks up Last Name using a listbox on the form, and looks up Course Number using a second listbox on the form.

To use the form, the user looks up Last Name in the listbox, finds the ID number associated with the Last Name, and enters the ID number on the form. The form then autopopulates with the last name. The process for entering a Course Number is the same.

This populates the query underlying the form, but not the table. All that gets populated in the table is the ID Number for Last Name and the ID number for Course Number.

Modules & VBA :: Loop Through Table And Create File Names

Oct 22, 2014

I have a VBA routine that runs some queries and then creates a report as a PDF document using my virtual PDF printer. At this point it brings up the Save As dialog and I give the file a name and select a folder to store it in.

But I run this report 30 times for 30 different parameters. The parameters are obtained from a table which contains values such as Cancer, Diabetes, Stroke

-I always name the PDF file according to this value.
-I always choose the same folder.
-I always overwrite the reports I produced last month (copies have been sent elsewhere by then).

how can I get VBA to cycle through this code 30 times, each time selecting the next value from my table and creating/overwriting those files without the need for me to tell it the filename and path?

Code:
Private Sub lstSpecialties_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)

At the moment I am running this code by double-clicking an entry in the Specialty listbox, 'but I would prefer the whole thing to run multiple times for as many Specialties as exist in the table '(currently 30 but could be more in time)

'Warnings off
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
'Make the tables needed for the cumulative queries
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Spec 002 Monthly recruits - part 2 - make table" Each of these queries
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Spec 005 Monthly recruits - part 2 - make table" uses the Specialty selected above
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Spec 022 ABF previous year - part 2 - make table" as a parameter to get
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Spec 025 ABF current year - part 2 - make table" the right data for the report

[code]....

Combo Box List: Repeated Names Problem

Dec 11, 2004

my search form has a combo box with "make"names. i can add new makes via a other form. so the combo box needs te run via a query so that it can list new makes (so that i can also search them). but, since some makes repeat them selves in the table, sometimes up to 15 times (see atachment 1), the combo box will show 15 times the same make. i just need it to show the make 1 time, all of the makes just 1 time. only way i can do that is to type them my self (see atachment 2). but then new makes that are added later wont be shown in the list.

so: i want that the make is only shown once in the list, and that the list is updated with new makes that are added later. how do i do that?

note: a "make" E.G = Philips, Apple, LG, Microsoft, creative etc (just for the lesser skilled english readers like me )

all help is welcome

Forms :: Selecting Few Names From A Long List

Mar 22, 2013

I am currently designing an employee personal development and training database.I have 100 employees and the number that would go on a training course might be a handful so selecting four or five names in a subform list from a 100 seems a bit impractical.

I thought of selecting the course in a form from a combo box, selecting the employees using a tickbox in a subform and then running an append query.

How Do I Populate A List Box From...........

May 29, 2006

Hi there,
I am finally underway with the forms etc, after having spent weeks planning and setting-up the table/relationships.
I have entered some sample data so that I can test out the forms as I go.
I have an "Unbound" list box and an "Unbound" combo box, (along with other stuff) on a form.
The list box gets it's data from a Junction Table between "Customers" and "Products".
I can get the list box to populate itself with ALL the product items in the junction table but I have tried and tried to filter the items down to match the selected value in the combo box.
A couple of diagrams (jpegs) can be viewed here
If anyone could spare the time to enlighten me on this "blind-spot" I would appreciate it very much.
Thanx

Modules & VBA :: List Of Orders - How To Keep New Types In Same Table

Oct 26, 2013

I have a query which is my list of orders. Now I want to create other type of orders. New types don't use the code in red (tbl Offset and tblRodzajZlecenia). Is it possible to modify the query, in order to keep new types too?

New types of orders are in the same tables. But if I don't fill fields in tblOffset then query can't show new type of oder - that's the problem.

Code:
SELECT z.ID_Zlecenia AS ID, tblRodzajPracy.RodzajPracy AS [Rodzaj pracy], tblRodzajZlecenia.RodzajZlecenia AS [Rodzaj zlecenia], z.NazwaZlecenia AS [Nazwa Zlecenia], k.NazwaSkrocona AS Klient, z.DataPrzyjecia AS [Data Przyjęcia], z.TerminOdbioru AS Termin, tblStatus.Status, tblStatus.lp
FROM (tblKlienci AS k INNER JOIN ((tblStatus INNER JOIN tblZlecenia AS z ON tblStatus.Id_Status = z.Status)
