Modules & VBA :: Textbox And Contents Will Not Display
May 3, 2014
Me.TxtNotAllowed.Visible = True
dtTimer1 = Now
dtTimer2 = Now + TimeValue("00:00:10")
Me.TxtNotAllowed.Value = "You do not have permission to use this database !"
Do Until dtTimer1 >= dtTimer2
dtTimer1 = Now()
Loop
Me.TxtNotAllowed.Value = ""
DoCmd.Quit
The above code will run definitely for the 10 seconds however the textbox and contents do not display HOWEVER if stepped through with breakpoints line by line and the form checked each time the textbox DOES display and its contents.
I'm trying to use ghudson's browse button in a form on MS Access. It works well, but I'm running into a tiny bug after implementing it into my database.
[URL] ....
I am able to browse, I am able to select a file, and am also able to have it display into the hyperlink textbox. However, when I try to click on the hyperlink in the textbox, it does not take me to the file.
To fix the bug, and to get the hyperlink working again, I have to modify the hyperlink within the textbox, then bring it back as it was. (generally, I hit backspace, and replace the letter I removed.)
I have a textbox in a form. What I want it to do is to display the following weeks Monday date. Sounds simple but requires you to know the Monday dates in advance ...
My form has a listbox (lstHeatTreatments - Multi-Select disabled) that displays Heat Treatment descriptions and an unbound textbox (txtHTDetails) that I would like to have display the corresponding memo field when a description is selected from the listbox.
This is my code so far:
Code: Private Sub lstHeatTreatments_AfterUpdate() Dim myConnection As ADODB.Connection Dim myRecordSet As New ADODB.Recordset Dim mySQL As String Dim selectedRequirementKey As Long Set myConnection = CurrentProject.AccessConnection Set myRecordSet.ActiveConnection = myConnection
I have a drop down box where I select a Retailer. When this choice is made I want the last invoice entry to appear in a text box. I have attempted this by creating a query which contains the top 1 invoice in descending order. My dropdown box Event updates a hidden List box using List677. Requery and List677 has a SELECT statement in Row Source
So far so good this bit works
I want to use this value as a default in a Textbox. I thought I could use the same trick to populate the Textbox as I did the Listbox so i tried Text232. Requery after the List677. Requery in the Event above. But no it does not update. The only time the textbox updates is if the Listbox is in Focus and as I said this List box is Hidden. How can I get the textbox to change in real time... I would use the Listbox but i need to be able to change the value of the contents to run reports, I just want a default value.
textBox Default Value: =[List677] textBox Control Source: =[List677]
List677 Row Source: SELECT LastInvoice.Invoice FROM LastInvoice;
I am developing a form whereby the user types a single character or a sequence of characters into textbox and a query WHERE clause is compiled upon each character being entered.
The query is the Row Source of a listbox which I requery upon each change in the text box contents.
In the Change event I cannot access the new contents of the textbox until focus moves to another control and then back to the textbox. This is not how I expect this event to work.
I have a requirement that will need three cascading combo boxes - the second box should only display the contents that match or are relevant to the first combo box, etc.The title of the YouTube video is:
Microsoft Access pt 9 (Cascade Combo Box)
It seems the first and second combo boxes cascade and works fine. However, the third combo box remains blank after the second combobox selection has been made.
I have three tables: Customer, CustomerSubOrg, and PORs. I have setup lookup fields that are using Primary keys for two of the tables (CustomerSubOrg and PORs). However, I ensured that the primary key fields display as the "Names" of each instead of the numbers. I also ensured I went back and changed their data type to "Text" instead of "Number" so the text appears (which seems to have worked for box #2).
How to get the third combobox to display its contents? I've attached some additional screen shots below. I know the problem is within the second combobox -- perhaps the query needs some adjustment?Unfortunately I cannot attach images yet since I am now. But I basically created two queries and used them each for the second and third combobox.The comboboxes on the form:
Customer Sub Organization POR
The Suborg query looks like this:
Table: CustomerSubOrg First Column: From field SubOrg From table CustomerSubOrg
Second Column: From field CustomerID From table CustomerSubOrg Criteria [Forms]![frmMain]![cboCustomer]
The POR query looks like this:
Table: PORs
First Column: From field PORName From table PORs
Second Column: From field SubOrgID From table PORs Criteria: [Forms]![frmMain]![cboSubOrganization]
Why wont the contents from the third combobox appear?
I am working in Access 2007. I have a form with 3 text boxes of which I need the Textbox3 to calculate a SUM of the input values from Textbox1 and Textbox2. These text fields will compute ONLY when the record is saved OR if there is a prepopulated value in the text field. EX. When textbox1 is populated with a value when I Openform, then as I input a value into textbox2 I immediately see the SUM in textbox3. Works great in this scenario. However, if both textboxes 1&2 are null, and I input a value into each, then I won't see the SUM in textbox3 UNTIL I save record.
How can I get the SUM to display after inputting the value of my textbox1&2?
How to set combo box for example doctor name with 2 field which display doctor name and department.
Lets say if i select doctor name : Eric and automatically display doctor department as: Surgery in text box. Then I can save patient record on appointment table.
I would like to ask if it is possible to use the contents of a table as a comparator? For example, I have this column in my table that has the schedules of the professor, if the professor for example failed to login within fifteen minutes after his/her supposed start of class a message will be displayed on the screen notifying that the professor has not yet logged in.
I have a calculated value in an unbound textbox (avghcppmw). I want to run a query (qinsphistory) in which one of the fields is the value of the textbox (avghcppmw).
Is there any way to pull the value from the form and display it in the query. I'm assuming not.
I also assume the only way to do this would be to create a query that would calculate the textbox value and base (qinsphistory) on the newly made query.
Table1 has field (% Completed this Period) that may contain a value, or may be NULL for each entry, depending on how much work was performed that period. The records are sorted by date.
Form1 has a textbox that basically keeps a running tally of "% Completed to Date" by summing the "% Completed this Period" for the current period and all previous periods. So, my Control Source for the textbox is the DSum(...) function.
The problem is this: If I am looking at the first record and there is a 0 (null) value for "% Completed this Period," (i.e. No work was completed that period), I want to display 0 on Form1. However, Access just displays nothing - a blank textbox. I tried making a default value, but nothing will show up since I already have a Control Source set for that field. If I take the DSum function out of the Control Source, then the 0 will show up. But, obviously that defeats the whole purpose of the textbox. I guess I'm trying to figure out how to display the DSum value IF it is something other than 0, BUT IF IT IS 0, then I want 0 to be displayed. Any help would be appreciated.
In my form I would like a text box to display the two combined i.e. £10.000.00 (83.33%). At the moment it displays 10000 83.3333333333333. I can use £#,##0.00 to format the current half, but how can I then format the percentage to display 83.33%?
I'm new to access programing and have been working on a handover form for shift workers, as part of the handover we have to include call volumes forcast and actual calls received over a period.
I have a form which links to my table (Handover) the two fields are named, "239 Forcast 18:30-00:00" & "239 Actual 18:30-00:00" I then want to add a third column with percentage variance to show wether the percentage of calls is higher or lower than forcast.
I manually input the data into the forcast and actual fields and want this to then populate a textbox for the variance percentage next to this.
So far I have tried: =Sum(100-[239 Forcast 18:30-00:00]/[239 Actual 18:30-00:00]*100)
The above sum seems to be a little unstable and when switching to view different handovers the value in the variance stays the same, regardless of the figures in the mentioned fields.
I have a form that has 3 combo boxes and a text box that I want to be a lookup. I have a little experience with DLookUp, but I do not think that will work here. The three combo boxes are linked to queries, and Tables. The first combo box is for choosing "Precious" or "Base" metals. The second combo box is filtered from the first and displays the "Metal Names". The third combo box is to choose a "Metal Market". There are currently four options for that. I want the text box to display the "Metal Market Price" based on the second and third combo box selections.
Here is a screenshot of the table with all of the metals and their market prices filled in with dummy values for now:

Here is a screenshot of the relevant Form: Metals form screenshot.PNG
Here is a screenshot of the Table that relates to the relevant form: Metals table design.PNG
Here is a screenshot of the Metal Market table that the Query is based on: Metal Market Table.PNG
I'm enrolling medical centers in a new multi-center database. There are a number of steps that must be completed before the center is enrolled in the project. I have a form that serves as a checklist. I want the textbox at the bottom of the form to display the percentage of steps completed. I guess you would have to count the number of fields on the form that are filled in, but I don't know how to do it.
I've got some code that loops through a record and copies the non-null fields to another record. This is the partial code:
For Each fld In tdf.Fields If Not IsNull(Forms!contact_lookup![Contact_sub subform1].Form(fld.NAME)) Then strSql = "UPDATE tbl1 SET tbl1.[" & fld.NAME & "] = '" & Forms!contact_lookup![Contact_sub subform1].Form(fld.NAME) & "' " & _ "WHERE tbl1.[FC_APN] = '" & Me.txtApn & "';" DoCmd.RunSQL strSql End If Next fld
This works fine until it encounters a field whose contents has a reserved character, like a single quote (" ' ") in it, for example, "What's the what." At that point the SQL thinks there's a " ' " missing in the statement, and I get an error 3075 (syntax error: missing operator).
Basically i'm trying to link Access to Outlook to retrieve emails , When using the wizard to link outlook folder to Access it fails, i've been informed that this is due to the version of Access they have installed which is a ThinApplication.
i was wondering would it be possible to access / link my outlook emails to access via VBA Coding?
All i need is the raw contents of the email and subject.
I am working on a change control database where the users can enter a new version for the software they just released and send out a notification to the appropriate persons. I have a form where the user can select a combobox to pick the software version, which is bound to my "Releases" table. From the software version I use a DLookup in VBA to change the value of a another unbound text box using:
This all works fine when I'm entering data in the form, but if I want to print the form, the unbound text box on each page is only calculated from the first record. The same thing happens if I build a report with the same fields and code.
For example: In print preview the text box on page 1 should say "Cat" based on the current record and the text box on page 2 should say "Dog". However, they both say "Cat"
How do I get the text box to display the new value on each page?
