Modules & VBA :: Get Msgbox To Let User Enter Data In Specific Text Boxes
Jun 17, 2014
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 use filter Combo boxes in a lot of places so that users can filter records easily. (Not combo boxes for input).I have them labeled as filters but nonetheless users keep trying to input into them for some reason.How would I add a message box to it so that it states that 'this box is not for data entry etc'.
I have a form with three text boxes and one button. I want to use these three text boxes as parameters for specific query, thus i want a code that has the ability to pass these three value to query parameters or another code to solve this problem.
I am trying to create a query where a user will enter information in boxes (any combination) on a form and a query will bring up the joined information from 4 different tables but I do not know where to start with the relationships on the query let alone the best method to search.
To start it off I have attached a db with the tables and the form I want the user to enter the search criteria into as well as my attempt at a query.
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
I have a form on which there is a series of text box controls relating to different frequencies. At the moment I enter a value in to each of these manually.
However, I would like to have an unbound text box where I can paste in all the values (6 or 8 of them) from excel and then press a button and they would be copied in to the individual boxes.
So far I have my design:
I'm not sure where to start with regard to the code as I don't know how to handle delimited text - is it column delimited in excel?
I imagine some sort of loop, such as a do until will be required but again not sure.
Where the word Author= appears to extract the data between the double quotes, so in the above case I want to extract "All Saints" excluding the double quotes.And then where Title= appears extract "On & On", again excluding the double quotes.So I would end up with data in my table looking something like this
strArtist [Author] strSong [Title] strGenre [Genre] strYear [Year] All Saints On & On Pop America Venture Highway Rock 1972 Amillionsons Misty Blue Pop 2002
I have an unbound mainform and an unbound subform(datasheet). The source of the subform is a query which is dynamic(I have many queries with diffrent columns). the subform source is change using a combo box selection. I have text boxes in my mainform..how do I get the data from subform to the text boxes of the mainform?
I have a report and within the report I have added some text boxes with some simple logic such as sum, count, etc. These text boxes function well as long as the logic is referencing existing fields. The minute I try to have a text box reference another text box I get the "Enter Parameter Value" box pop up. I don't understand this as the text box I am referencing has a vaule based on what it is referencing.
Example: 1st text box control source =Sum([existingfield]) I get a value. 2nd text box control source =[existingfield2]/[1st text box] I get "Enter Parameter Value" of 1st text box.
I am trying to build a query that would be pulled by indaviduals name entered by the user of the DB. I can't remember the santax to use in the critera field.
Code: Private Sub Text74_AfterUpdate() Me.Text1280 = Environ("UserName") If Me.Text74 = "MACGH" Then Me.Text89 = "PureGene" Me.Text85.Value = Date End If End Sub
Is there a way to insert a line of code in the above that would add the next number to a 2 specific textbox's (Text103 and Text509)? Maybe if a table was created with all possible values and then the code would reference that table. There is probably a better way though. An example would be, if record 1 is A1 (in Text103) and 1 (in Text509), when record 2 is entered Text103 would be A2 and Text509 would be 2. Record 3 would be A3 and Text 509 3.
how to read a specific line in a CSV file (using VBA), to see if the phrase "There are no records available." is present.
If it is present, then I'm going to do a debug.print stating that there are no records to load - and then the script will move on to the next file. If the phrase isn't present, then I'm going to upload the file to Access, parse the information, and then upload it to a CRM. (I already have the latter portion of the code up and running....I just need to account for the first part, where I can determine if the file has data or not).
The structure of the file never changes. The first row is composed of eight column headers (Post Date, Card Number, Card Type, Auth Date, Batch Date, Reference Number, Reason, Amount) and (if) the phrase "There are no records available." is present, it will show up on the second row, in the first column (under Post Date).
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 have a form with various tabs and a number of fields. If I could I would just select all fields to "required=Yes" in the table design mode. But some fields should only have data entered if another field has a certain value. So, I think I just want all visible fields for this data requirement (I set some fields to visible=false if I don't want them to have a value).
So far I tried to do this on click of the Submit Record button which I created using the "docmd.gotorecord, , acnewrec" statement, but I can't seem to make it work when combining it with if then msgbox statements. Plus I typed an if then statement for every required field.
Here's my code below:
Private Sub AddNewRecord_Click() On Error GoTo Err1 DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec Me.Label216.Visible = False Me.CM_2A.Visible = False
I am trying to clear a textbox after the user enters an invalid date and I do not know why the following code is not working:
Private Sub txtStart_AfterUpdate() If Not IsNull(Me.txtStart) Then If Not IsDate(Me.txtStart) Then MsgBox "You have not entered a valid date" Me.txtStart = Null Me.txtStart.SetFocus End If End If End Sub
In MS Access form, how can I create my own message if the user enter a value that not match with the data type of a field in underlying table? Thanks a lot!
I have a form that a user fill out to populate fields in my database...how can I make it so that user MUST fill in certain fields before they are allowed to save data?
I need to stop users from taking shortcuts when entering data, and skipping a lot of fields. So i would like to be able to specify the minimum fields, and an error message must show when they try save incorrectly to alert them to this.
I need to be able to restrict users enter a value in the text box (on Form B) called "FTE Assigned" if Dsum of a field called "FTE Allocated" in another form A is less than what is going to be sum of FTE Assigned after the value is entered.
Both these forms are used by users to enter data in the 2 separate tables which are linked together through a join.
Master table - having FTE Allocated values and secondary table having FTE Assigned values.
Basically a message box would do if Dsum (of FTE used) is coming out higher than FTE allocated.
I am trying to limit what a user can see when accessing a database in access. I am only testing with this in access before taking it to SQL server. I have 3 databases and I combined the data into one set of tables and now what i am trying to do is a certain user can only view data from a particular database.
I have a table with the users id and password, as well as an ID number from each database that I am trying to tie to the users.
for example one user can view and add/edit data in databases 1 and 3 but not 2. while there might be a user that can view and add/edit on 1 and 2 but not 3.
I have a table field where Null is not allowed, how do I use a user freindly message to tell the user to add data to this field. When a user tries to leave the field Null (ie by tabbing out), they get a message, "tried to assign NUl value to vaiarble which is not variant datatype.
What I want to appear is more like "Please enter a name" or some other custom message.
Any ideas - I have tried before anfd aftyer update events and vaidation rule on the form field of Not Null, but the underlying message always appears first.
Okay, I have a unbound form with three combo boxes the selection of these three & then clicking of a filter button opens the relevant form showing records based on the selection. Great that bit working, no major feat.
Trouble is when I select three criterea in the combo boxes that no record(s)exist for and hit the filter button. A blank form appears not very friendly or appealing.
what I'm after is a simple, thats me all over by the way, of a message box appearing to tell the user no records where found.
I am using Access 2007 & trying to update a database to include a check & balance.
Currently a user enters their name into a form, selects a check box (Pass or Fail) & clicks a save button. Real simple form. The actual testing is performed on a standalone piece of equipment separate or outside of the MS Access database.
Here is the challenge, if someone does select Fail, I want to ensure this person comes back into a blank form (new entry) & confirms they have eventually passed. I want to give a time limit of 10 minutes before an email is sent out to their superiors. (I have the email portion figured out already).
Other entries will take place before the failed user comes back to the entry form so the form needs to be available for other people to enter their results.
I believe this can be done using some VBA and a query but I am not sure where to start especially with the 10 minute allowance to recheck the test status.
