Modules & VBA :: Refresh Subform From A Different Form
Apr 15, 2014
I have an close button on a form that is supposed to Refresh the subform of a different form and then close the form with the close button.
frmOperations - no refresh / requery
subfrmPlants - Needs to be refreshed / requeried
frmPlants - Needs to be closed
Currently the button effectively closes frmPlants, but it's failing to refresh the data on my subform to display any changes that have been made on frmPlants. I've tried with refresh and requery, neither seem to work.
Code:
Private Sub lblClose_Click()
If CurrentProject.AllForms("frmOperations").IsLoaded Then
Forms!frmOperations!subfrmPlants.Form.Refresh
End If
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmPlants", acSavePrompt
End Sub
I have a form called frm_Incident_Single. On this form I have a subform/subreport called tbl_Incident_Apps_subform. I have a command button on frm_Incident_Single that opens another form called frm_Incident_Apps where I choose multiple selections. When I save or close the form I would like to update the subform - tbl_Incident_Apps_subform.
I've tried to requery/refresh the subform in the save procedures in frm_Incident_Apps but when I save it, I get a syntax error. Here is the line of code:
I have been trying to figure out how to make a form refresh after deleting a record in a subform. The code in the combo box that populates the subform works fine. If you select the "Action" of "sign" from the unbound combo box above the subform, it places "Sign" in the the subform and then makes a checkbox on the main form [WillTake] = True.
But when I delete the record by right clicking on the entry, the focus is sent back to the main form so I can refresh the form and thus update the [WillTake] checkbox. I have tried just about everything. I can get the focus to a field on the form, but I cannot figure out how to refresh or requery the form.
The code to transfer focus is on the OnDelete of the subform.
I have two subforms on a "Page"/Tabs. Subform #1 is a continuous form which accepts data about dimensions of a pattern piece. The other subform needs to update its information display each time the last control of the first subform loses focus, because it tells me how much material is required for all pieces of this pattern that are entered.
My first feeble attempt at this was to add the following code to the "Lost Focus" event of the final control on the first subform: Form.Parent.Refresh
This succeeded in forcing the second subform to re-run its calculation.
However, after the recalculation took place, I wasn't able to move to the next record on the first subform. This subform is a continuous form, and I need to be able to add another row of data and then see the second subform change based on the additional information in the first subform.
I have a form called Add New Delegation, i have combo box of Institution names on the main form and a subform for Agreements discussed. with a combo box called agreements. I successfully cascaded the combo boxes so that the agreements discussed on the subform are filtered by their respective institutions on the main form. However i am unable to refresh the list each time a new institution is selected as the Macro will not allow me to requery a control on the mainform from the subform..
I'm working with a form someone else created and am adding a delete button. I've managed to add the button and get some code working which will delete a record from a table. The problem I'm having is that after the delete operation occurs all fields in the form, and the corresponding items below the form, show #Deleted in all fields. How can I force a refresh using code?
I have a main form that the user will enter data. Once they hit a submit button, it saves the record and I was hoping it would also refresh the form in which is populated by a query. The form that is linked to a query will be displayed on a monitor 24/7. It will display pending orders. So I was hoping as new orders are placed, the query would display them without needing to be closed and then reopened.
Here is the method I'm using but it's not working.
The Header and footer are not linked. The Footer simply displays all the existing bookings for said ouse/Room/Date combination. (Date being all dates between the StartDate and EndDate) BUT (surprise, surprise)users don't look at this to check if a booking already exists.
Also - It seems pointless to have the users enter the same data (House, Room, UserID) in 6 times (one for each day that they want to book the room.
So I am trying to automate the process.
Therefore, I append each 'new' record (that the users adds in this session) into a temporary table. (House / Room / UserID / StartDate)....note, no end date because I need a separate record for each day.
I have a query that is supposed to check the EXISTING bookings with the temp table. My code (paraphrased here for simplicty) says
do while StartDate < EndDate - if Qry_CheckForClash returns 0 records then '(uses a dlookup) - append from TEMP to BOOKINGS. - - else - compile an alert message to the user (appending the Room No and Date each iteration) - In Qry_CheckForClash, increase the StartDate by +1 - end if loop
My problem is that after the last step (increase StartDate by +1) the call to Qry_CheckForClash still returns the initial StartDate. But when I check the TEMP table, the StartDate has changed.
So how do I REFRESH or REQUERY a query that is not associated to a form or report?
I have a form, a couple of comboboxes and text boxes on it. When these are filled out, the SQL of a query is changed using these parameters.
There are three subforms on the form, all pivot charts, all based on the query being changed.
The goal would be to update all three according to the user-given parameters.
Right now the subforms only update if I close and open the form, which is probably not the best solution, since it's too slow.
I've also tried to requery and refresh them, with no result.
Then I tried to overwrite the recordsource of the subforms with the same text that was originally there. This got them to refresh their data, but then all of the charts disappeared and had to be built again, so this is a no go too.
Essentially I have a form_A with several tab's and then one list control box in each of those tabs. At present if you double click on any item within the control boxes your taken to another form_B with info about that item and when you close that from down again if refreshes form_A.
Is it possible to only refresh the specific list control box that is active instead of refreshing the whole form ?
I have a form which contains one subform. On the subform I have a command button which saves the record just entered. On the main form I have a "refresh form data" button which updates the main form so that the calculated controls can show the correct results based on the data just entered?
Can anyone tell me how I can get the "save record" button in the subform to subsequently refresh the data in the main form as well, thus saving a button???
I have a form with one subform that lists trucking loads. The form is set to run modal. There is one button on the form to add new loads which when clicked opens a popup form to enter new load. When you click on the Save button on the popup form it saves load to table and closes taking you back to the Form/subform with list of trucking loads. I have tried various refresh tips to get the new load to show, but I have to close the Form/subform and re-open for the new load to show up. Is there a way I can get the Form/subform to refresh after I click the save button on add load popup form so it shows this new load without the need to close/re-open the Form/subform?
In my database, I have a form that has 2 subforms on it. Both subforms are set to run off a query that is driven by a text field on the main form. I want to have a button on the form that when pressed, it will refresh the subforms based on the value in the textbox. I can't find a good way to go about this, any ideas?
I have a form in which a 'read-only' sub form is placed. The sub form is based on a query. I have a button on the main form which opens another form with check boxes which allows updates the to table.
I want the readonly subform to refresh/requery after the close event of the update form.
What is the event I need to use? I've tried activate, gotfcous on the main form. I am tearing my hair out.
I have one main form in which i have 2 subforms on different tabs.All the forms are unbound. Basically i am trying to assign a order to multiple persons.SO the main form has the order information.1st subform shows the already assigned persons and the second one is for assigning new persons.
The problem i am having is that whenever i assign a new person using the second subform i want to refresh the first subform but i am failing in it.
i used forms!firstsubform!refresh on the second subform..but it says object doesnt support the property or method.Then i create a refresh button on the first subform and on its click event i m doing me.refresh but again its failing.
The first subform is not bound and it has datasource as a querry like select a,b,c from order where orderid=txtorderid.
I have 3 forms: 1- editpopsubform where the info comes from a select statement. There is one field in the list which is the status and it changes the backround colour depending on the status value.
2- editPoplist , which has the form 1 as a subform
3- editpop, a form which allows the user to edit a record selected in the poplist form.
If i modify the status in the form number 3 (editpop), when i go back to form 2 (editpoplist) , the status's value changed but the colour doesnt. any idea? thx, max.
I have tried in vain using refresh programming to overcome this,
I have a main form that records site and date information. Within this there is a subform that records a number of fields that are standard, but differ according to site location, so that it appears like;
Offsite1 Onsite1 Offsite2 Onsite2 a a a a b b b b c c c c
So what I want is for the main form to record that site and date info, with a subform recording the above listed info. One new record within the corresponding table will be created for each grouping (i.e. Offsite1).
To do this effectively, I want to go to the next record once I have filled in the information for Offsite1 for example, this will record the site, date and Offsite1 information in the table. When moving to the next record however, I want the site and date information in the main table to remain or be copied across. The subform will clear as it is a new record and so will the main form normally.
I have a frmCustomer as a main form with a subformOrders as a sub form. I now want to add another subform that is based on a query I build. I only want that subform to refresh (update totals) when data is entered in the subformOrders fields. I am trying to use the TimeInterval, I created a macro that just Requery. But soon as I click in the subFormOrders field, It starts to do the refresh.
Hello, After searching for many days I have given up and so here I am. The following code is the event associated with a button New Record on a subform.
Dim txtDepth As Integer Me.txtDepth = Depth_To Me.Refresh
As you can see the record in Depth_To is copied to the variable txtDepth, the subform is refreshed and the value txtDepth is copied to Depth_From.
I have added a subsubform to the subform that allows users to enter information about an interval only when required, otherwise it reamins hidden. What I would like is once the user has finished entering data into the subsubform, a button New Record (on the subsubform) allows the user to go to the subform, hides the subsubform and then refreshes the subform as above. I have tried copying the code (above) to the subsubform button and using SetFocus to switch to the subform, but it appears to be not as simple as that.
right I have searched and searched the forum but obviously this isnt as simple as I thought it would be!
I have a main form called "frmAllStudents" based on a query called "qryAllStudentsMainScreen". The unique field in all forms is Admission Number.
I have on this form a data-entry subform called "TeachingAssessment" where a member of staff puts in teaching Assessment.
I have a second continuous subform called "previousTeachingAssessment" which lists all the previous teaching assessment.
The problem I have is that unless i select another student or open and close then the previous teaching assessment doesnt update. How do I requery to get this to show on the continuous form?
I have a bit of a problem. I have a main form with two subforms. The subforms are linked to the main form my two fields. The main form and subforms are each based upon a different query.
I have written VBA code that filters the SQL statements of the subforms based upon the value of the the REV field on the main form. When the user changes to different record on the main form, the subforms are supposed to change accordingly.
The problem is that the subforms on the main form will not refresh each time the user chooses a new record on the main form. If I change to a new record on the main form and then open the subform outside of the main form, the correct information is shown. The problem however is that the subform shown on the main form does not automatically refresh. I have tried numerous strategies, but to no avail. If I am on a record in the main form, and I exit the main form, and then re-open the main form, the subform data on the main form will reflect that of the record I was on prior to previously exiting the main form.
DoCmd.Close acForm, "qryRevText subform" DoCmd.Close acForm, "qryAdminRevText subform" Please help me if you can. I would appreciate it greatly. Thank you in advance.
hi all,got a tricky problem...hope to get help from u all...appreciate!!!i almost complete this but run into a "refresh" problem..I have a mainform with a textfield where users can input a number to search for an item; if found, a list in the 1st subform will appear in datasheet view. When i select a item in the 1st subform, if the item has a child, the 2nd subform will show the item's child/children. I try to do this by passing a parameter from a MasterPno-Link field(linked to Partlist field in the 1st subform) on the mainform to a query that the 2nd subform is based on. The problem now is when i select a record on 1st subform, the 2nd subform doesnt refresh to show the corresponding number although it always shows the first item corresponding with the 1st item in the 1stsubform.I tried to use this code on AfterUpdate event of MasterPno_Link. No error but no update..Private Sub MasterPno_Link_Change()Dim ctlList As Control ' Return Control object pointing to list box. Set ctlList = Forms!submain1 ' Requery source of data for list box. ctlList.RequeryEnd SubI also tried this Form!submain1.Requery but didnt workwhat am i doing wrong? pls enlighten me! thanks alot. Hope i make myself clear:)
I have created a form and a subform from a table.Initially I created a table with 11 rows. After completion of my project I added an extra of 480 rows to the main table. But the newly added rows are not coming in my subform.
Main : Main table (It consists of around 491 rows) MForm : Main Form (It shows of only 11 records which I was 1st created)
How to refresh my subform inorder to display all the rows.
I have a subform that is based on a SQL statement that sums by Dollar Amount and groups by Account. I have it set up so the user can double-click on an account, which opens an unbound form. I then have the form execute a SQL INSERT INTO statement, which works beautifully.
The form opens as a pop-up, and I have it requery the subform when it closes. However, when the pop-up closes, I go back to the first record on the sub-form. I need it to "remember" the record I was on and take me back to that one. What is the standard procedure for doing this?
