Modules & VBA :: Set Of Fields - Method For Locking Records?
Aug 20, 2013
On my form I have a set of fields that can be displayed as editable or read-only depending on a "Lockout" checkbox for that record.Is there an easier way of doing this? If not, would it be smarter to create a function to do this? As it stands I'm assuming I would have to have this code run when the form loads, when the Lockout box is clicked, and whenever the record is changed just to ensure that the records are displayed as locked or unlocked appropriately.
Here's what I have:
Code:
Private Sub Lockout_Click()
If [Lockout] = True Then
Me![Customer_Text].Enabled = False
Me![ReqDesc_Text].Enabled = False
Me![MoreInfo_Text].Enabled = False
Why I am not able to get all records by excluding the Numrows argument in the getrows method?
Sub Test2() Dim myrset As Recordset Set myrset = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT * FROM Holidays;") myrset.MoveLast myrset.MoveFirst MsgBox Excel.Application.WorksheetFunction.Networkdays(#8/1/2014#, #8/31/2014#, myrset.GetRows(myrset.RecordCount)) MsgBox Excel.Application.WorksheetFunction.Networkdays(#8/1/2014#, #8/31/2014#, myrset.GetRows()) End Sub
Second MessageBox is giving a wrong value.
Is it a mandatory one? Or Do I have to do some ritual like (Movelast) before that?
(Holidays table is just having the values in the array only ie. #08/15/2014# and #08/29/2014#)
In an Access 2010 form is it possible to export select records and fields in those records to a specific location?
Code: Set objDialog = Application.FileDialog(4) With objDialog .AllowMultiSelect = False .Title = "Please select a File" .InitialFilename = "C:" .Show If .SelectedItems.Count = 0 Then MsgBox ("Action Cancelled") Else
[code]....
The user can select the directory using the code above, but can specific fields in records be exported to a excel workbook in that selected directory?For example, if the are 5 records in the database can the fields LastName,FirstName,BirthDate in records 1,2,3 be exported to Setup.xlsx in that selected directory?
How do you go about locking certain fields in a table, so that data can only be input to them via the form?? I have a few tick boxes set up, and i want them to changed only in the form, as they can only be ticked under certain circumstances which aren't setup in the table.
I am really new to all of this and used to use excel for this stuff.... yes I know... I can hear the screems already .......... :):eek::rolleyes:
What I am trying to do is lock some fields in a form when they are entered so the data can not be changed after they move onto the next record. I think this might be done in the table but can not be sure.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? or some pointers please. Any help would be good.
I have two tables tablea, tableb. They both have the field Line address in which is a number.
However, when i have both these tables in a query and link them on line address the dataview sheet becomes locked. But if i just run a query with tablea on its own, i can write in the dataview and if i just run a query with tableb i can also write in it, but when linked together on line address, it fails
i have a form that looks like an invoice.. i want to be able to lock the fields invidually after they are updated but only for the current record being accessed... and password protect them to allow editing.. any suggestions or pointers would be great!
I have a button on my form which locks (and disables) some fields. by locking and disabling fields, I am able to change the back color of the fields to a "grayed out" look to warn the user that they cannot change the contents of the field.
some of the fields that I have disabled are in fact option buttons and check boxes which have no back color to change, keep this in mind!
So i have a macro that changes ALL of the fields to disabled and locked, as well as their background color.
This causes an error with the check boxes and option boxes so to bipass them I have got the clause "On Error Resume Next" so that my macro continues to complete and finish locking the rest of the form.
With this "On Error Resume Next", If the code reaches a field which has been changed, another error occurs due to a field being changed which blocks the rest of the code from working however why it wont change regardless of the issue, I dont care if the content was saved to a record or not, I just want to put the fields into disabled and locked.
Is there a way I can remove this "You Can't Lock A control while it has unsaved changes" error to ignore that there has been changes? Where the changes just dont matter?
I have 4 questions (4 fields) in a form. 2 are drop down menu type and 2 are open text fields.I would like to limit the user from entering data in the fields if one has been answered. for example: if Question one is answered, question 2, 3 and 4 should be locked and should not allow the users to fill in anything. How do I create that Locking system?
Is there any way to "lock down" newly created records somehow, so that only the person who created them can edit them after the fact?
Obviously, this would require some kind of system where everyone logged in with some kind of userID and password...and even then, I don't know how such a security system could be set up.
Is this possible? If SO, are there any examples of it anywhere that I could check out?
I update the table through a form. Each page in the form updates one complete row of the table.
I am trying to find a method to block each row of the table (or equivalenty each record in the form) after completing the entry in order to prevent unwanted deletion or alteration of the entries of this record in the future. Is this possible?
I’m new to access but I have created a table with a form linked to it. It shows one record per page. I just want to be able to lock and unlock individual records in the form by using a checkbox. This will prevent me from accidently making a change to an old record.
For example, when the checkbox is unchecked. the current record on the form can still be edited. When the checkbox is checked, the record can only be viewed, not edited. I still need to be able to navigate through the locked record and create a duplicate from the locked record though. Does anyone know a simple way to do this? My guess that it has to do with the AfterUpdate event? Thanks for any help.
anyone know about this? i've messed with it, but i think i screwed it up. when one user is using a record and another tries to access it, my program shuts down completely.
How can i apply the following code to the immediate record in my subform. I would like when the assigned check box value = true, then the fields for that record become locked.
Ive written the following code to an onclick event for a check box labeled "assigned" on my form, the problem is it executes on all the records in my form.
Q. How do i apply the code to only the immediate record?
Private Sub Assigned_Click() If Me.Assigned.Value = True Then Me.Serial_Number.Enabled = False Me.Component_Group_ID.Enabled = False Me.TypeID.Enabled = False Me.Description.Enabled = False Me.Status.Enabled = False
I have a python script "runAll" that takes two arguments: processID (the primary key of one table as a string) and a filename (a full file name path as a string).
Is it possible to run a python method with arguments from inside a VBA script (activated by a button press)?
My python script is called XMLGenerator.py, and the method I want to run is called runAll(processID,filename).
I can't seem to find any answers to this maybe i am asking the wrong question, or its so easy nobody asked.
I am viewing / editing some records in a form, I want to view all of the records but only allow edits to records with forms with tblData.Locked = false.
I have 4 users entering data via aform. The database is located on a shared drive. They are getting errorsthat the record is locked. I believe this happens when 2 or more people open the form and are trying to enter data at the same time. Is there a way to have each person lock a new record on open at the form? or is there a better way to handle this? I'm new at this and am working my way through.
About six months ago I created a database for tracking customer calls and comments. I replicated this database because I wanted to be able to make design changes without effecting the users ability to add records. I have no security set up for the database except for startup options. I am having an issue with users being locked from adding records once in awhile. The dialog box says "Could not update; currently locked by user 'Admin' on machine '***'". The more I read this the more I am thinking that they are getting assigned the same record ID when they go to make an entry. Although, if the users are patient and wait a few minutes they are able to finish adding the record without deleting it and starting over. There are now 22 people utilizing the database and about 17 of them are using it consistently. Any insight on this would be appreciated.
Is there a way to lock the row source fields in the properties menu as currently it keeps creating exceptions (WHERE) onto the end of the SQL this is subsequently causing me major issues in the view of the form/datasheet as fields keep appearing as blank when there is actually values stored within the table.
For Each Item In offexchfldr.Items.Restrict("[SenderName] = '" & frmfm & "'") ' Select Items that match Sender Name on form If Item.TaskSubject = subid Then Item.Categories = frmcat ' Update category from form to outlook Item.Save End If Next
This script checks every item in the outlook inbox where the item.SenderName = my database sendername
This works every time except for when the sendername has quotes or single quotes in their name. So i am trying to utlize the replace method on the item sendername before trying to find the items in the inbox but its not working.
Below is my attempt that does not work.
For Each Item In offexchfldr.Items.Restrict("Replace([SenderName],',"") = '" & frmfm & "'") ' Select Items that match Sender Name on form
i have the following code in a function but when i want to compile it i have the following code will be blue i have error in this line:
.NamedParameters = True
the error message is this :
method or data member not found
my code is as following:
Function Get_Bearbeiter_Detail(ByVal vBearbeiter_Code As String, Optional ByRef vBearbeiter_Name As String, Optional ByRef vReadOnly_Flag As Boolean, Optional ByRef vAnalyser_Flag As Boolean, Optional ByRef vAdmin_Flag As Boolean) As Boolean On Error GoTo Err DoCmd.Hourglass True Dim rst As ADODB.Recordset
Hoping you can help me out with a problem I have... Basically every now and again I get a call from my client saying they cant add a new record, to any table, they get a message saying they are not allowed. I go in and it seems the DB has somehow locked itself and I have to open it up and repair it... it is a multi user setup with the database on a server.... I have seen the users actually end task on Word if it doesnt respond quick enough and was wondering if this would cause the locking problem!? I am just asking to see if there is a setting or something I can do to try and prevent this happening!?
I have and order entry/lookup form with a subform to view the line items on the order. Once an order has been saved and status is ‘placed’ I want the records for that order to be locked.
I would also like to display a message box with a yes/no answer to confirm that they want to issue the order and if they confirm then lock the record otherwise return them to the open order.
I can't find out how to do this, but I'm sure it can be done.
