Modules & VBA :: Button To Select First Item On Multiple Combobox
Feb 1, 2014
I have a contineous form with a combobox for each record and i have a button to select the first item in the combobox then to refresh the list in the combobox .I want to creat a one button to select the first item in the combobox then refresh the list then go to the next record and select the first item on the list
In the form1 , I have a listbox1 with 2 columns. The values get added in the listbox using vba. Now I want to Edit the listbox values in case user enters something wrong. So when the user selects a listbox item and then EDIT button then form2 gets opened. And the textbox1 of it stores column1 of listbox1 value and textbox2 stores column 2 of listbox1 value. So the user canb make changes in the textbox values and then press SAVE button . Now I want the code that will make those changes in listbox1 of form1 and unload form2 then.
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?
At the moment I have a query that returns a result based on what's selected in a combobox.
SELECT ComponentT.ComponentType AS ComponentType FROM ComponentT WHERE (((ComponentT.TotalComponent) Like [Forms]![DeviceF]![D_ComponentNameCmb] & "*"));
Instead of this I want to rewrite the query to return a result based on what the user has selected in a list box of items. How would this query look. Would I need to increment it in a loop checking all entries into the list box as it can vary in size and if so how?
I tried changing the last line to WHERE (((ComponentT.TotalComponent) Like [Forms]![DeviceF]![D_OutputLsb].[ItemsSelected] & "*")); which returned a result just not the right one. Is there something wrong with the syntax?
I have a simple listbox (single column, no multi-selection).I want to enable a command button when the user selects an item in the listbox / disable it if no items are selected.I'm using the AfterUpdate event of the listbox, as follows :
Code:
Private Sub lstOptions_AfterUpdate() Select Case Me.lstOptions.ItemsSelected.Count Case 0 Me.comConfirm.Enabled = False Case Else Me.comConfirm.Enabled = True End Select End Sub
But when I select an item from the listbox, and debug the code, the Count is always zero? Even though I can see the item selected??
I would like to let vba select all (one after the other) values in a combobox and run a query. The code has to be run using a Do While Loop for which I already made the condition.The reason I want to automate this is to allow the user to quickly add new links in the database. The combobox is used in multiple queries.I rather code it than make new queries for this situation because it involves many queries that would have to be added.
I almost complete my mini project - Stock Inventory:
To track Items enter and exit from Videoshop or simply known as Stock Transaction (IN/OUT). This also include a Inventory Catalog which basically show all the Items in the Videoshop, each Items details including category, transaction type description and most importantly quantity on hand.
As mentioned above, I almost complete the database except the most important Form - New Stock Transaction where User enter all the necessary details to issue an IN or OUT Transaction. To make things easy to understand, it share many similarity with Invoice and New Order.
Code: Main Form (Table: StockTrans) Trans_ID Trans_Type Trans_Date Trans_Cust Trans_Note
Code: SubForm (Table: StockTrans_Items) Trans_ID fk ItemID fk Trans_Item_Qty
When I finished records entry and enter Invoice completed button then it will auto update the Item Quantity on Hand.
A small issue I was wondering of for a few day . Is it possible in SQL query to SELECT multiple fields from multiple tables ? Example for the question is
Code:
dim my_var as String my_var = "SELECT Emp_FName , Emp_LName , Emp_Adress " _ & " FROM Table1 " _ & " AND Emp_Date_Of_Payment , Emp_Sum_Of_Payment " _ & "FROM Table2 " _ & " WHERE Emp_ID = 3 "
Is this code actually valid in SQL gramatics , and is it usable if passed to a Recordset variable ( rs = CurrentDB.OpenRecordset(my_var) ) ? Just FYI - The two tables are not related and I want to keep them that way (If possible relate their records just via SQL/Vba )
I've got a continuous form, with a button (cmd1) on each record. Each record has a unique primary key, RecordID. cmd1 is clicked to open a form (frm1) based on the RecordID using the following code:
I made a database that in one of the forms, I like by clicking on a button the user be able to select 5 excel files with different file names (in the same directory) and then based on the imported file's names, it be stored in 5 different tables.
At the moment by using the bellow code, I can import multiple files (with the same formats) only into one table . My vba code comes as follow:
Function GetAllFiles() Dim fd As Object Dim strFilter As String Dim lngItems As Long
Const msoFileDialogOpen As Long = 3 Const msoFileDialogViewDetails As Long = 2
I have a Multiple Value Combobox that I have linked to one of my forms and I am trying to write some vba code that will allow on update, "if a certain item is clicked open up a different form".
Here is the Multiple Value Combobox Multiple value combobox3.JPG
My combobox is not working correctly. When I select one of the dropdown items in the combobox it always defaults to the 1st item on the list. I want to be able to select any of the dropdown items on the list.
I'm trying to select a specific row in a listbox in the OnKeyDown event on my form. Basically, while in a subform, I want the enter key to move the focus to the list box, specifically to row After the last selected.
Here's an example of the code I thought would work:
Private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer) Dim ItemNumber As Integer
When I go to the Properties window and click on '...' to check the results of this query, I see exactly what I expect to. Likewise, clicking on the combo's drop-down arrow displays the data correctly.
However, when the combo box is displayed on it's Form, #Name? is always displayed and, while I can view the items in the list, I am unable to select any of them.
I've got a feeling this is going to be a simple correction, but I can't work out what's wrong and it's bl**dy infuriating.
Have a subform: Name: frmProjectSub1 Default View: Continuous Forms
A combo box within the subform: Name: cboProjectName Control Source: Nothing Row Source Type: Table/Query Row Source: SELECT ProjectName FROM tblProjects WHERE tblProjects.Status LIKE "*" ORDER BY ProjectName; Column Count: 1 Bound Column: 1 Visible: Yes Enabled: Yes Locked: No Allow AutoCorrect: Yes Tab Stop: Yes OnClick Event: Private Sub cboProjectName_Click() With Me.frmProjectSub1.Form Me.RecordsetClone.FindFirst "[ProjectName] = " & Me.cboProjectName If Me.RecordsetClone.NoMatch Then MsgBox "Can't find task " & Me.cboProjectName Else Me.Bookmark = Me.RecordsetClone.Bookmark End If End With End Sub
Within the continous form, if I name the Control Source as ProjectName, and traverse through the records, the value in the combo box changes to the current selected row.
Problem: In the combo box, I do get the dropdown list of projects, when I click on a project - Nothing Happens! The listbox stays open on the item that I clicked on -- does not close-up and put the selected item in the combobox window. I'm stumped...
I could set the Combobox.Value to one of the values in the combo box and combo box displays that value. But when I try to use Combobox.Value subsequently it does not have any value. I noticed that the value property is populated only when the combox box item is manually selected(highlighted).
I would like to be able to create a recipe (saved in its own table) by pulling items from a multiselect list box (from the raw materials table) but which allows me to add the same ingredient more than once.
I work for a chemical manufacturing company and we need to track the cost of goods by recipe (final product), by linking the ingredients (where the cost of the raws are associated) to the final prodcut. Several of our products need to have chemicals added in the beginning, but then again at the end of the procedure unlike normal kitchen recipes.
(I sure hope I don't have to learn VBA . . . I'm totally new at Access!)
I have a combo box(drop down box), it uses a select statment to get data. I want to assign each choices (item) from the combo box to a label's caption.
for exmaple the comobo box has these choices (item) ______________ |drop down box| apples pears grapes melons
I want to have 4 labels each label will have caption equal to each item in the drop down box so we now have
apples as label 1's caption pears as labe' 2's caption grapes as label 3's caption melons as label 4's caption
how might I be able to do this in VBA? IS there a way to select an item from a combo box and the set the label's caption equal to that? Something like:
I want to select an item in a listbox that has a specified value when I open the form that contains this listbox. Most I've found describes selecting records based on their index value but I want to select an item according to the actual value that's displayed in the listbox. For example, the first number below is the index value, the 2nd is the number I'm interested in and the 3rd is another column in the listbox:
0 1 12345 1 2 33256 2 4 36280
I'm using the OpenArgs property to pass the value (a long integer primary key) to the opening form but I don't know the syntax or correct terminology for ensuring the specified row is selected in the listbox. At present, using the above example, if I want to select the row with the value 2, it's selecting the 3rd row rather than the 2nd.
I have a combo box that won't allow me to select an item. The box is on a subform. When viewing only the subform, it works. When viewing the subform from the main form, it won't work.
I am trying to set up a listbox with an option to select multiple items (I have done this and tested it with debug.print and it seems to work). I am then building a filter statement with VBA. I want to then use a button to add this statement to the filter in a subform with (a datasheet design), and then requery it.
My code below seems to be working in part. But I am getting all the items at times. Seems to work consistenly when selecting one item only, but I can't see anything wrong with my 'OR' statements when I debug.print.
Private Sub Command176_Click() Dim i As Integer Dim strFilter As String Dim blnFirst As Boolean i = 0 If Me.List163.ItemsSelected.Count = 0 Then
So I have this form with a combo box which successfully displays a range of items from which I would like to select from - but unfortunately I cannot. I cannot select anything from the combo box.
I have checked the form and table to ensure I have edit rights - which I do.
The form is based on a query - attached is a picture of the relationships within the query.
I assume I have created a non updateable query but this is only an assumption.
I am lost about the best course of action to take. Is there a way to identify the problem?
Do I just cut my loses and recreate the functionality somehow?
