Modules & VBA :: Yes / No Buttons Not Working On Msgbox
Oct 30, 2013
I have a form I use to search for clients when I hit a command button, using surname etc. I'd like a yes no button to pop up rather than the clunky ok button route I currently have. I'm a beginner with VBA and most this I've gleaned from internet.
If there are matching results, everything is fine. If there are no matching results, I've managed to get my desired messagebox come up by using the code below in the onload event of the resulting search results form, however the yes no buttons do nothing and the results form loads blank as though no records were found.
I'd like Yes to send users to the client input form, and No to return them to the search form.
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
If Me.Recordset.RecordCount = 0 Then
MsgBox "Do you want to add a new Client?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "No clients found"
Select Case intanswer
Case vbYes
I am calling a continous form from a combo box on another form. The code below used to warn me that there were no records and shut the form down to avoid showing a blank form.
Private Sub Form_Load()
If IsNull(Me.TxtUnit) Then MsgBox "There are no operations recorded for this Unit", vbOKOnly, "No Recorded Operations" DoCmd.Close End If
End Sub
All was working fine until I changed the properties of the continous form to "Allow Additions = No" to remove the spare blank line at the bottom of the records (just for neatness really). Now, if there are no records to display, the Me.TxtUnit is not Null anymore. It does not seem to exist. If I hover the mouse over it (in VBA) I get no response at all.
The form is based on a query but still writes directly to the appropriate table.
In the header of the form I have a series of command buttons - new record, navigation buttons, and buttons to open new forms. None of them work at all.
I checked each button to be sure the On Click Events still had the right Event procedure, and they do.
for example, the command button to open the Cases form has the following VBA (generated form the button wizard.):
Private Sub cmdOpenCases_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdOpenCases_Click
Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String
When clicked, the button just blinks - nothing happens. I check to be sure the form isn't a popup and also closed it after clicking it to see if maybe frmCases had opened behind the current form for some reason. Nothing - it's not opening at all.
I recently upgraded to Access 2007 from 2003. The upgrade was in June and went smoothly. I added a couple of drop down boxes to my form in August and that seemed to have gone fine as well. Suddenly, at least two weeks later, my form buttons are not working. I added the pathway to my database to the list of trusted locations. Everything I have read says this should work. This did not make a difference. I am able to edit forms, run queries and reports, and can add new records by entering data directly into tables but am not able to add new records, view details, close forms, or exit using my buttons/forms.
Hi - I have another problem. I hope you can help me out on this one.
Right now, I have 3 toggle buttons to control the visibility of 3 subforms. However, I only want a single subform to show at any given time. So, if I were to select toggle 1 it should give me subform 1, and afterwards if I select toggle 2 it should give me subform 2 WITHOUT showing me toggle 1.
Is there anyway to get the toggle buttons to work with each other?
When I use the filter by form, filter by selection, and toggle filter buttons located on the ribbon, they work normally on my form, in the usual way.
However when I use the button wizard to add the various available filter buttons to my form, it adds the buttons with the correct graphics on - but in form view clicking on the buttons does not actually do anything.
I've tried running compact and repair but still the same.
I'm using this stardard piece of code on a button that deletes a record from a simple continuous contact form.
Code: If MsgBox("Do You Want To Delete This Record?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton2, "Delete?") = vbYes Then DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectRecord DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord End If
If the form is called "CONTACTS" with a field called "Contact_Name", what code do I use to have the relevant Contact_Name appear in the MsgBox to be sure that I'm deleting the correct record ...... something like this .....
Do You Want To Delete The Record Called Paul Quinn ?
I currently use this code to trigger a not in list event, ask the user if they want to add it to the respective table, and then add it.
I'd like to be able to add the text in the combo box that triggers the event to show up in the msgbox.
Private Sub cboCategory_NotInList(NewData As String, Response As Integer) Const Message1 = "The data you have entered " & me.cbocategory.text &" is not in the current dataset." Const Message2 = "Add now?" Const Title = "Unknown entry in CATEGORY Field..." Const NL = vbCrLf & vbCrLf
I have a database in which users have the ability to search by last name...nothing fancy there. However, the users continue to forget to click the Find Client button and instead just type what name they are looking for in the LASTNAME control thus changing the record that they are currently in!!!
I am looking for a way to have a msgbox pop up any time the LASTNAME control is changed. I found the code below but this works for the entire record and I don't want them to have to click Yes every time they make change.
Code:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) If MsgBox("Changes have been made to this record." _ & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Do you want to save these changes?" _ , vbYesNo, "Changes Made...") = vbYes Then DoCmd.Save Else DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdUndo End If End Sub
So each combination has an ID. It's called the SuWID. I want to Transfer the data to a fixed Excel sheet. I wrote the following code
Dim xlApp As Object ' Excel.Application Dim xlBook As Object ' Excel.Workbook Dim xlSheet As Object ' Excel.Worksheet Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application") xlApp.Visible = True
[Code] ....
The only Thing what i still want to have is that, before it opens the Excel form, which works already perfectly well, that a msgbox will Show up and ask me, which SuWID do you want to see in the Excel sheet.
i have a form to enter a new client if the client is existed then a message box appear and tell me that this client is existed and his number id is ## with two buttons yes and no.if i click yes i should go to a report that contains information about that user and this report take his data from a query
new client save code --------------------- Dim MSG As Integer Dim ExistentID As Long ExistentID = Nz(DLookup("P_ID", "tbl_Personal_Information", "Full_Name = Forms!frm_New_Person!F_N"), 0) If ExistentID > 0 Then
[code]....
when i click yes the report should open with the existent id but he open a input box to ente an id and his title is tbl_personal_information.PID it's the ID field that it's named P_ID in the query
So I have a form for addresses that checks against a table of US zip codes, and throws up a warning if the City/State/Zip entered isn't found on the table. This works great. But I was wondering if there was a way to list the available combinations based on the zip code entered. I want the program to tell the user that the city is wrong, but here is a list of what it could be.Is it possible for a msgbox to list all records where a field = value?
How can I show a msgbox with the text "Update in progress! Please wait a while", when I execute the following make table querye on form load?
Code: Private Sub Form_Load() 'Turns the Access warning messages off DoCmd.SetWarnings False DoCmd.OpenQuery "q_tblUdtrk2" 'Turns the Access warning messages back on DoCmd.SetWarnings True
I've created a database in access 2003 with the default file format being Access 2000. Everything works fine on my computer and many others, all of whom are running different versions of access (2000, 2002 & 2003).
I have not had any problems with this database until recently and in the last few weeks we have had 2 users, both of them being Access 2000 users who have had the same problem.
The problem they are having is that when they click on any of the switchboard items, the buttons depress an then come back up again when the cursor is moved away, but nothing else happens - no action, no error message - nothing!!! Its the same for all of the buttons on the switchboard.
Does anyone know what is causing this? I have another computer with Access 2000 on it and this works fine, as it does on several other computers runiing Access 2000, I just cannot understand why it is not working on these 2 particular machine.......
I have a form with various text, date and combo controls. There is a button at the button that runs a macro (Close NB) at the bottom. What I'm trying to do is bring up a msgbox if certain fields are blank and not run the macro. I only want the macro to run if all the fields specified have data in them.
The fields are : cmb_cliname cmb_disease cmb_projectType cmb_ProposalStatus
The on click code is: If (Me.cmb_cliname Is Null) Then MsgBox "Please fill in the relevant details", ElseIf (Me.cmb_Disease Is Null) Then MsgBox "Please fill in the relevant details"
i want to get a msgbox to let the user enter the data in specific text boxes so they can't let it empty if not empty then do..this is my code
If Me.Client_Name.Value = "" Then MSG = MsgBox("You Should Enter The Client Name") ElseIf Me.Username.Value = "" Then MSG = MsgBox("You Should Enter The UserName") ElseIf Me.Address.Value = "" Then MSG = MsgBox("You Should Enter The Address")
[code]....
the msgboxes that tell the user this textbox is empty is not appearing what's wrong with my code
I would like to have 3 buttons on a form. When clicking Button1, Button2 and Button3 should be shown and Button1 hidden. When clicking Button3, Button2 and Button3 should be hidden and Button1 shown.
How can I do this when it is not possible to manage the object being clicked? I tried the following which did not work because of managing an object clicked is not allowed.
