Modules & VBA :: How To Select Current Field For Module Call
May 29, 2014I'm trying to monitor a few fields and record who updated them together with the old and new values, so far, I have this;
This does work ok, I was just wondering if there's a way of referring to the current field, rather than having to specify 'me.NPW.oldvalue' etc.
Code:
Private Sub NPW_AfterUpdate()
Call LogFieldUpdate(Me.AppNumber, "NPW", Me.NPW.OldValue, Me.NPW)
End Sub

Modules & VBA :: Unable To Call Excel Functions
Jul 15, 2013I spent all day trying to figure out why sometimes I can call an excel function from access and the value will appear on my form, but for some functions (F.inv, binom.inv), it errors out as "object not supported". I browsed all the available libraries in tools/reference but found nothing that seemed to solve this issue.

View 2 Replies View RelatedModules & VBA :: Call Event From Subform Using Tag Property?
Jul 11, 2013I am starting to explore VBA and Modules. I recently found a relativly simple way to add an Audit Log to a database without adding two tables for each table as outlined by Allen Browne.
I used a set of code from fontstuff.com and it works great, except when using a sub form. I belive that it is most likely because the use of the Tag property looks at the subform as a control but it holds no value. I am thinking the VBA needs to be altered or the BeforeUpdate command need to specify what form to look in.
The Before Update code is
Code:
Public Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Code:
If Me.NewRecord Then
Call AuditChanges("SubForm_ID", "NEW")
Else
Call AuditChanges("SubForm_ID", "EDIT")
End If
End Sub
AuditChanges is the Module Event name and CustomerID is the unique identifer for a Subform.
Modules & VBA :: Call Text Box OnExit Event From Another Form
Jun 26, 2013I was wondering if you can call a textboxes onExit event from another form? On my form a user enters a search criteria into a text box and when they exit the textbox the results are displayed in a listbox. This form is a subform on my main form. I want to be able to call this onExit method from the main form. Is that possible? When I put in txtSearchBox_Exit, I got an error saying Sub or Function not defined.

Sep 8, 2005I have a bunch of Forms set up in Access that are updating tables etc......
At present 100% of the code is sitting on the Form. I have some code that is repeated because of a string parsing issue. What I am thinking of doing is writing this code as a couple modules and then call them when needed.
Does that make sense to write them as modules and call them?
How do you call a module???
Thanks
Call An Excel Macro From Access Module
Dec 7, 2004I am trying to populate an Excel Shreadsheet (Template in Effect) with Data from Access. This is going ok no problem. Although I need to run an excel macro, which does some formatting to the WorkSheet after each entry in the Access Recordset. I've tried copying the VB over, but getting some errors, and frankly, I think it's easier if I just call the macro itself, rather than try to adapt it for the Access context. Though, I accept it would be a cleaner approach. Can I do this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedForms :: Navigation Form - Call VBA Module
Nov 4, 2014I have three forms - Form1,Form2 and Form3 linked to a navigation form with Navigation buttons. I have separate VBA codes under each Before update event of these forms, Form1,Form2 and Form3 to call a VBA module to track the changes performed by the users(Like an Audit Trail) in specified fields of the forms which will track them to a table.there are control tags in the form properties --> others --> Tag to track the changes in the fields which are defined in the VBA Module.this is the code to call the VBA Module:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If Me.NewRecord Then
Call AuditChanges("UniqueID", "Part No", "NEW")
Else
Call AuditChanges("UniqueID", "Part No", "EDIT")
End If
End Sub
[code]....
The code is working perfect when the forms are run separately.but when they are run from the navigation form by clicking the navigation buttons, the code is not working !!
Modules & VBA :: Static Shell Function Call Works But Dynamic Call Fails
Sep 4, 2013I'm having to recode some old MS Access DBs so they will run in the following environments:
Office 2000 on WinXP
Office 2003 on WinXP
Office 2010 on WinXP
Office 2000 on Win7
Office 2003 on Win7
Office 2010 on Win7
When I wrote my code for Office 2000 on WinXP things were simple because directory paths were the same across all computers and I could hard code pathing when using a shell command to launch other files.
My new approach is to make a function call to the Windows registry to determine the default executable and path for opening a file based upon its extension (see apicFindExecutable in basWindows API module).
I'm able to use code to create a shell call and debug print it to the immediate window. If I put my cursor in the immediate window at the end of the shell call and hit [enter] the external file will open as desired. If I try to open the external file directly through code, I get a file not found error.
To recreate the error take the following steps:
(1) browse to files that are accessible from your computer
(2) click the PREPARE DATA AND OPEN MAIL MERGE DOCUMENTS command button
Shell function call is made by the fnOpenFile function located in the basOpenFile module. There has to be a trick here that I'm missing.
"Hidden Module" Unable To Create MDE
Jul 12, 2007Hi,
I have found a few threads on here regarding creating MDE files but have found none stating this message...
I have been trying to create an MDE version of our Db but keep receiving the message "Complile Error in hidden module: Form_formname"
I thought I'd see if it was just that one form causing issues, so I deleted it! But now it's just moved onto another form!!
If anyone could shed some light on this I'd be most appreciated.
Thanks.

Unable To View Event Procedures
Feb 20, 2006I was working on a form in a database I have created, when I suddenly found myself unable to view any of the related Event Procedures.
I can still see [Event Procedure] next to each field, control, etc., as well as next to the On Open event. I just can't view any of them. I appear to be able to view the Events behind all other forms, it just isn't working for this particular one.
Clicking on the '...' to the right of the line does nothing, nor does right-clicking on this symbol and trying to access 'Build'.
Logging out of the Db, then back in, achieved nothing. Nor did rebooting the PC.
The only other peculiar thing I've noticed is that if I attempt to make a copy of this one form I get the message 'name conflicts with existing module, project or object library'. This message is displayed regardless of what name I enter.
Everthing was working fine, earlier on. Now I'm effectively locked out.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Me.frmContactType.Form.chkAssociate
Whether To Code In A Form Module Or A Standard Module?
Dec 14, 2007I'm wondering how other members here make decisions whether they want to place codes behind form or use a standard module instead.
I understand there is a performance penalty when you add another module (and use it), but am not sure whether one big fat module would be faster than several smaller modules with identical coding.
Furthermore, I know that some members use a hidden form to deal with startup and shutdown processing. Sometimes the processing has nothing to do with forms and would make more sense in a standard module, but since the form is already loaded, does it makes more sense to use the module behind the form than calling a function in a separate standard module to execute the needed code?
So, what do you tend to do in such situation?
Modules & VBA :: Using Same Module With 2 Front Ends?
Jun 24, 2015I have a small system that consists of a back end data base and 2 front ends. having 2 front ends was a historic reason but they cover 2 distinct processes in the system.
I now have the need for using the same module(s) in both front ends. Each has a copy which is fine if nothing changes but when it does I have to apply the changes made (or copy over in its entirety) from one front end to the other.
Although this is no big deal I can forsee it slipping through the net.
Can 2 front ends access the SAME module and if so how?

Modules & VBA :: Update Form From A Module Function
Jun 16, 2013I have this code below that is working however the calculation are updating on my form late.
Basically, I have some calculation that are performed on a "After Update" event on some controls on my form. I wanted it to do the calculation after I update the control on the form.
The code is in a module and I just call the function after update on the control But the form is not updating when I change the value in a field. I have to change the field again for it to update.
Control
Code:
Call GeraAuditCalc
DoCmd.RefreshRecord
Function
Code:
Function GeraAuditCalc()
Dim fHrs As Double
Dim Ttl As Double
Dim Ttl1 As Double
Dim Ttl2 As Double

Modules & VBA :: Month And Week Criteria In A Module
Sep 23, 2013I am trying to return a value in an expression (call it FundedPeriod): CurrentWeek, CurrentMonth, PreviousMonth, based on a date value in field [funded_date].
Here are the criteria I am using:
Current Week: DatePart("ww", [Funded_Date]) = DatePart("ww", Date()) and Year([Funded_Date]) = Year(Date())
Current Month: Year([Funded_Date]) = Year(Now()) And Month([Funded_Date]) = Month(Now())
Previous Month: Year([Funded_Date])* 12 + DatePart("m", [Funded_Date]) = Year(Date())* 12 + DatePart("m", Date()) - 1
Based on example, I expanded upon that and came up with this:
Code:
Function FundedPeriod(FD)
' returns CurrentWeek or CurrentMonth or PreviousMonth or None based on FundedDate (FD) criteria
Dim ret As Boolean
ret=CurrentWeek
[Code] ....
Am I in the ballpark w/ this in order to return:
CurrentWeek or CurrentMonth or PreviousMonth
so in the query expression I think I would type FundedPeriodName: FundedPeriod([funded_date])

Modules & VBA :: Module Opening Form With Blank Record?
Sep 10, 2014I have the following module in my database to allow for multiple alarms.
It all works great, except before showing the actual alarm record called, the form first pops up showing the first record in its record source.
I.e. it flashes up showing the first record in the table, then changes to the 'correct' record.
I would just like to change it so it either doesn't show until the record is loaded, or it shows blank to begin with.
Here's the module...
Code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Public clnPopUpAlarm As New Collection 'Instances of frmPopUpAlarm

Modules & VBA :: Undefined Function For A Module Called In A Query?
Sep 8, 2013This module is giving me the "undefined function" error message when I try to run my query. I don't know why, but I have checked that there are no references with "missing" and there are not. I also added the word "Public" to the function becasue that was advised by another forum user. I thought it worked perfectly the first time I ran this query, but now it is not working and I do not recall making any changes. I have called the module basFunctions:

Modules & VBA :: Data Not Saving To Database When Using Save Module
Oct 27, 2014I have a back end database that a number of people are working with using an Excel add-in that imports and edits records saved in the backend. Occasionally, when a user will update a record at first it saves to the backend but then an hour or two later, the changes made disappear. We have validated that after the user saves the changes, those changes are present in the backend of the database, but for some reason those changes disappear after a period of time.

Modules & VBA :: Way To Declare Variables In Sort Of Module That Access Uses By Default
Nov 16, 2014Can't find any way to declare variables in the sort of module that Access uses by default.Having changed the default, I now get 'Option Compare Database' as the first line (previously nothing was there). Adding anything at all in that section, or changing it to 'Option Explicit' has the consistent effect that all the procedure names in the module are not recognised and nothing works.
Variables declared in procedures work only in the procedure even if declared as Public. Can't get a Static variable to work in more than one procedure. However many variables I declare, there are never any in the Declarations list at the top of the Code Window.
