View 2 Replies View RelatedHi All a newbie here so any help will be appreciated,
sorry for the long post but trying to give you all the information you might need.
I wrote a basic access database for my Church to aid in a paperwork audit for a charity food drop which we do monthly to give free food to the needy.
But each month it gets harder to find out who was in line first so I thought with all your help we may be able to randomize the names each month in a different order as to avoid confusion and also avoid people waiting in line as they turn up at 5am and we don't start until 9am.
So if this will work in access they can all come for 9am
I don't mind creating a new database and adding the additional information, if that's what it would take.
My Background I have created basic databases from scratch not using wizards, But I don't know much about code or how to implement it so any help in where code goes it would be very much appreciated.
Database details (Microsoft Access 2002 version)
Table Name = details
Field name = ID (auto-generated)
Field name = FirstName (text)
Field name = Surname (text)
If possible it would be nice to keep a record of the randomized lists (in the database somewhere ?) each month in case anyone wants to see it or disputes the lists, where I can just create a report to show the details.
There will be approximately 90 to 125 names.
Thank you in advance for all your help in this matter

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
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.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI 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??
I am using MS Access 2007.
I have created a multi-valued field "Product Category" that lookups data items from a linked table. So, the Data Type for the multi-valued field "Product Category" is Number.
Now I want to change the Data Type of "Product Category" from Number to Text, and make a value list that I can type values in and can provide the same data items as the linked table.
How to change item source for the multi-valued field from a linked table to a list that I can type in values? Is there a feature provided by MS Access 2007 can enable such a conversion?

What is the correct way to save the values in a listbox column to the fields of a table? I can use rec("field1") = Me.list16.ItemData(Varitem)and that records the bound column to field 1 but how can I save the unbound columns to other fields in the table?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have some issue when i save list view data in a access table.In form I have a list box(listtotalcount) and one text box(ID). In form load event I run a query on that list box like: "SELECT count(id) FROM table A" and it gave me the correct result. Now I want to store this data on a different table (table b) and I use this code:
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rst = db.OpenRecordset("table b", dbOpenDynaset)
[code]....
But the problem is when I click the save button it store only id not the list box value.
I have a multi slect list box (simple) and I need to find and select an item using vba - e.g., the bound column is the ID field and I need to select a specific ID (which will be different each time) as opposed to selecting the 100th record for example. How do I do this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have created listbox with one column (contains one column only), now i would like to display all the characters of list item (want scroll bar to listbox).
How do i display all text of list item, I have already fixed Column Widths to max length (22";0.1"). However when scrolling to right, it is going to next blank column of list box, which is created only to change Column Widths property.
How To Transfer MultipleSelect Item In Listbox to another Listbox ?
View 7 Replies View RelatedHi all,
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
Thanks alot

View 2 Replies View RelatedSo I have this relatively simple problem: I need to create a button that once clicked will open the Save As dialog box and allow the user to save a copy of the current database where he wishes. The filename should contain todays date in DDMM format along with some pre-set text e.g. DDMM PresetText.

I have a few selected reports on an Access 2007 database that users can run. Is there a way for users to view the report, save as a PDF and automatically save a copy to a shared drive by modules/vba coding as an On Click event procedure?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi everyone,
I have a form with a field named TREATMENT with the following options :-
1 Cryotherapy
2 Radiotherapy
3 Chemotherapy
4 None
5 Other (specify)
If the 5th option (Other) is selected, the user is required to specify what 'Other' represents.
I have created a combo box with the first 4 options and in instances of 'Other' the user can enter specific treatment that is not in the list (1 to 4).
What I would like to do is whenever the user enters a value that is not on the list (1 to 4), I would like to insert the word OTHER in front of the value entered. In other words all values not on the list will be prefixed by 'OTHER'.
E.G. if 'Surgery' is entered, I would like the value 'OTHER : Surgery' to be stored in the Treatment field of the table.
This will help in the generation of statistics from the table.
Any suggestions??
Many thanks in advance.

HELP...:confused:
I would like to be able to create a recipe (saved in its own table) by pulling items from a multiselect list box (from the raw materials table) but which allows me to add the same ingredient more than once.
I work for a chemical manufacturing company and we need to track the cost of goods by recipe (final product), by linking the ingredients (where the cost of the raws are associated) to the final prodcut. Several of our products need to have chemicals added in the beginning, but then again at the end of the procedure unlike normal kitchen recipes.
(I sure hope I don't have to learn VBA . . . I'm totally new at Access!)
Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi,
I am using a combo box in my form. It is a growing combo box allowing new entries to be entered to create a growing list.
When new entries are made to the combo box list they are only displayed when I quit the form and then return to it. Is there any way I could allow the combo box list to grow dynamically rather than having to get the user to quit the form and then return to it?
Many Thanks

Hello,
Didnt know where to start or what direction to head in. I have a combo box on one of my forms. It works fine, but would am looking for an added feature.
I am looking to get the following started:
There are 5 items in the list of my combo box. If the user selects the item called "Lost Opportunity", then how do I get an additional combo box to show up underneath it with reasons the sales opportunity was lost.
Then the reasons why would be in the additional box and they would have to select one...my work wants it so that if they lose the sale, they must provide a reason for that loss of business.
Any help in a direction would be appreciated.
Thanks.
