it has a listbox, wich RowSource is a query with 5 fields, BoundColumn is field#1.I have a comboBox with values of field#1 to have an 'AfterUpdate' Event, that highlights the row in the listBox that has the value of the comboBox in in field#1.
I have a multi-select list box for selecting which faculty members apply to a project. The faculty table and project table are linked in a many-to-many relationship. I have the following code which should create entries in the link table:
Private Sub Command5_Click() Dim varItm As Variant
For Each varItm In lstFaculty.ItemsSelected rs.AddNew rs!FacultyID = Me.lstFaculty rs!EntryID = Me.EntryID rs.Update Next varItm
rs.Close Set rs = Nothing End Sub
It successfully creates new records and enters the EntryID and LinkID (autonumber). However, FacultyID is always left blank. lstFaculty is the unbound list box which has three columns from the faculty table and is bound to FacultyID. Any ideas on why FacultyID isn't created in the link table (I get no error messages)?
Also, any ideas on how to prevent duplicate links being created every time the button is pushed? I was planning on having it first run a delete query for that EntryID in the link table so that it replaces the old links and any that have now been unselected are no longer linked. Comments on that idea?
Thanks again to everyone on the forums for your help.
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?
I have a listbox with *Like* search function as attached file. However, when the cursor moves to the items in listbox, a specific item can not be selected by Key Press even (Enter key). I do not know what my mistake is .
The coding below works fine. It presents a form with a list box of counties. Allows the user to select ALL, one or several counties and returns a query containing the clients from those counties.
The fields showing in the query are First, Last, Add1, FLAGToMap, City, Prov and Sector_Name.
I want to add in there a choice to select only the records that have are TRUE (-1) in the FLAGToMap field - just like the ALL button, this would be an ALL Selected Button let's say.
I would not know where to begin as I copied and adapted the coding below from a sample database and don't understand - at all - how the query is generated. The only coding in the form is the one below.
Private Sub cmdOpenQuery_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdOpenQuery_Click Dim MyDB As DAO.Database Dim qdef As DAO.QueryDef Dim i As Integer Dim strSQL As String
A while ago I started to use the following code to list the printers installed on a computer. This is code by Wayne Phillips.
This works well, but what if instead of simply getting a big message box with all the printers listed I wanted to be able to click on a name and set that printer? How do I do that?
Code for the button:
Private Sub cmdListPrinters_Click() Dim strCount As String Dim strMsg As String Dim prtLoop As Printer On Error GoTo ShowPrinters_Err
After several days of searching, I haven't been able to find any threads related to this. I'm making a search form that queries a pdf library table. Once a search query is entered, the user is able to open the files from a results form. Currently, I am entering the filenames from the network directory manually into the pdf library table.
For example, I manually enter the following information into the tblPDFLibrary table that contains the fields:
Date added, Filename, File Path, Series, Class, Title.
I was wondering if there's a way to have Access query all the filenames in the directory for me. In other words, if the directory contains the filenames: AccountsPDF, InventoryPDF, CustomerPDF. Can I have Access query all the filenames within the directory and automatically add all the file names (AccountsPDF, InventoryPDF, CustomerPDF) to the Filename field within the tblPDFLibrary table? If I am able to do this, I can code the other fields to populate information because the filename contains all the other field information (except for file path but I can program it insert the UNC path).
I have an access project that I am working on and need to be able to select multiple items from a listbox and have the exact selections appear in a textbox on the same form. I have looked around and have not been able to find any code that works.
The columns are PayPeriod, StartDate, EndDate, FiscalYear
What I want to be able to do is highlight a chunk of dates and have the first selected StartDate and the last selected EndDate populate two hidden text boxes so I can use them for my queries/reports.
I've tried a couple different ways. Each time what happens is it only uses the last item I have selected in it's calculations.
Code: Dim ItemIndex As Variant For Each ItemIndex In Me.lstPayPeriods.ItemsSelected If Me.lstPayPeriods.Selected(ItemIndex) And Me.lstPayPeriods.Selected(ItemIndex - 1) = False Then Date1.SetFocus Date1.Text = Me.lstPayPeriods.Column(2, Me.lstPayPeriods.ListIndex) End If Next
In this example I tried to have it go through each Item of the listbox. I wanted to check to see if the current row was selected and the row before it wasn't. That way I could determine it was the first item selected in the group of selected items. It would always only use the last item I had selected.
Code: Dim CurrentRow As Integer Dim FirstDate As Date For CurrentRow = 0 To Me.lstPayPeriods.ListCount - 1 If Me.lstPayPeriods.Selected(CurrentRow) Then Date2.SetFocus
[Code] ....
I tried to do something similar with this code. Again, it only uses the last item I have selected.
Hi, is there any (reasonably simple) way to select or deselect multiple items from the List Box with individual clicks without using Ctrl key. Eg first click on an item would select it leaving all other items as they are, subsequent click on the already selected item would deselect it etc. I hope this is not too confusing and I would appreciate some help. Thanks!
Allen Browne's "Use a multi-select list box to filter a report" solution, in particularly with two multi-select list boxes? The code works fine for me for either box so long as I code it for one box alone. Combining the two into one code results in a type mismatch error. I'm trying to use the code to pass the contents of both multi-select boxes as Where conditions to a report. Both boxes are based on number fields. To try to isolate the problem, I've removed Allen's setDescription and OpenArgs conditions. We're unfortunately still on Access 2003 as the company desires to squeeze every dime by using until end-of-life next year.

I created a form and created on it a list box which is a query that grabs certain number of fields from different tables. I would like the user to select from this list box of a choice and then store their selection into a table.This list box has three fields, but it needs to store the id rather than the item, the user would see the name of the item but the id of the item would be store into another table, called bid. It store all these three fields when a user selection one of the item from the list.
Im looking to have a query that selects the "NAME" from a table "tblPeople" where the NAME field begins with "A". Ive tried using WHERE tblPeople.NAME Like "A" with no luck.
Can anyone help me out, im sure im missing something really simple.
I have a database with lists clients across the UK. I have now been asked to provide options where users can select clients grouped by geopraphical area e.g say clients in Scotland.
I can of course do this but having numerous identical forms where the source queries have different parameters depending on the regions required.
The only problem with this is that I would need numerous forms and queries. Additionally, there are options on the form to navigate to linked forms which would all need to be unique.
What I would like to have options on my main (Switchboard Type) Introduction Form to select the region. The code on the relevent command button would include the parameter. I would therefore not require the additional forms.
The open form codes includes:
Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String
I feel i need something after "frmClients" such as qryClients.ClientArea = "Not Scotland". Various attempts to incorporate something has created errors.
Access is telling me it can't find the record and from what I have tested it seems to be the Update line, not the where line. I am basing the set portion as equals a query - could this be causing the problem? Or can code be based on a query?
When I run the below code I am getting the error "End Select without Select Case" I figured it might be because I have the "End Select" before the "End With" however when I move the "End Select" after the "End With" I get the error "Loop Without Do".
Code: Private Sub cmd_Update_Conditional_Codes_Click() Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim rs2 As DAO.Recordset
Hi, I have a list box on a form that has peoples names in it. What I would like to do is double click a name then open another form that shows that name in a textbox. I know it can be done, but I'm unsure of the code for it. Thank you!
Hi, I have an access base with the tables (data) and an access base with forms modules etc (program) located on the server, tables are linked. i have 3 or 4 users for this application. Here is my problem: When a user 'A' creates a new record if user 'B' click on the modifiable list the record appears in the list but when he tries to select it, that is the 1st record of the table wich is displayed in the form ?!!, if user 'B' close and re-run the application theres is no problem. What's wrong ? I have next & previous records in my form and there is the same problem user 'B' can't reach the record added by user 'A' I used .requery on each list boxes so my lists are well updated but i can't solve this selection problem (my form is based on the table) Thanks in advance for help.
Hi, This is my first posting on this forum, and I would greatly appreciate any help with this issue...
I have a form that is used for entering information into tables. I would like to be able to select multiple options from a list on a form and have it saved into a table. Any ideas? Is this even possible :confused:
Here are some paths I followed: The table has a List Box field, type Text, that gets values for the list items from another table. On the form, I have changed the Multi-Select property of the List Box to "Extended" so that the user can select multiple items from the list. But when I select items from the List Box, the table is not getting updated with the selected items.
Another way I tried doing this: The table has a List Box field that has no values (I'm not looking up values from another table). On the form, I set the Row Source of the List Box equal to the query that gets the list values from a table. I then set the Multi-Select property to "Extended". When I select multiple items from the List Box, the table doesn't get updated.
FYI: The control source for the list box on the form is pointing to the field in the table.
Good Afternoon! I am working on a database that tracks our members' attendance at a large meeting. Every person at the meeting has at least one role to play at the meeting and may have up to four. I have created a "tablePositions" with the fields "PositionID" and "Position" to define the various roles people can play at the meeting. In my "formRegistration" form I created a list box with the multiselect property set to Simple. The list is working fine, it appears in my form, it displays the names of the positions (as opposed to the PositionID), and I can select more than one "Position". However, when I view the "tableRegistration" table, I do not see any of the "Positions" I clicked on. I would like them to display (for example) "Delegate, Committee Chair, Trustee" in the "Position" field.
I have been digging around the forum to see if any other threads matched my problem, but couldn't find exactly the same issue. I know enough about access to be dangerous, but could you please include the code and where to put the code in your reply?
Thank you. I really appreciate websites like yours! Shelly
I have a check box that when selected will highlight another Text box which I then need to put in an amount ($). This amount I want copied into yet another Text box which contains other information I have provided. I have tried to use the IIf function but I am obviously not succeeding. In the Text box I have the formula as follows: IIf([Combo23]=True, "[Text23]") All this formula results in is '[Text23] because that's what is in the inverted commas. How can I get the actual $ amount to go into the text box. Thankyou so much for your help.
I have two questions regarding a multi-select list box.
First, is there any way to have the list box include multi-line items...or which will scroll beyond the right border of the box?
Second, I have a multi-select list box which is populated with an ID # column and a Description column. The user can select as many items from the list box as needed and, as the list box item is clicked, the ID # is added to a memo field on the form, with each ID # delineated with a coma. Is it possible to separate the memo field back out so that each item is identified individually (for report purposes)?
Thanx so much for your help with this...you guys/gals are simply the best!
