Modules & VBA :: How To Take A Value From One Form To Another
Jul 7, 2014
I have form called frmplant on open I select plant type from the combo box then there is a sub form called plantitem tbl subform this show's the plant under that type on a continuous form so the user enters the plant information then they have command button to open another form call frmpopupPlantService to log the service history of the plant item the user enters the service date and service notes I have text box call "add" this shows the next service due this is the value I want to add to plantitem tbl subform in the service due date box when frmpopupPlantService form is closed . This what I have tried
Can I look up and verify data on a "second" form based on a selected record from first (still open) form.
I am trying to allow users to select a User Name from a combo box list and then open "Change Password" form when they select "Change Password" for that selected user name.
My problem is that I can't figure out how to associate and verify the data tied to the user name selected on the previous (Login) form ( I am trying to validate the old password tied to that selected record).
I have the first login form created, and it's working just fine. I also have the change password form created (and it's displaying the user name selected from the first form using:
Code: Private Sub Form_Load() With Forms![frmLogin]![cboUserName] Me.txtPwdChgUserID = .Column(2, .ListIndex) End With EndSub
I also have the code written to validate and confirm old password, new password and validate new password (when the save button is clicked). I have yet to update the password with the new password (still trying to figure that out).
Attached zip file has screen shots of the two forms.
I have a button on a form which calls a module to show a calendar form. The user picks date and time, and saves it. The calendar form closes and adds the date and time to a text box on the initial form.I want to save the record so that the underlying table/query is updated, but it's not working. The record is not saved until the initial form is closed.Here's the form vba...
Code:
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Private blnFlag As Boolean, blnSaveIt As Boolean Private Sub btnDelete_Click() On Error GoTo Err_btnDelete_Click
I have a onclick tied to a label (for decoration purposes) that when clicked it launches VBA that essentially updates a form. All that part works except it will not recognize any changed value of the field I was last in?
Just to try to explain best as I can what happens.
- Form gets opened - I change field (quantity field) - I click the Label - It reverts to pre-existing value.
if I click off of the text field first then do the onclick - it recognizes just fine.
I have the form (PROJECT DETAILS) that displays a specific record's information, one record at a time.I would like to click a button to export 5 specific fields (name, phone, address) of that form ("Project Details"), based on the PK "AssignNr", and then insert those fields in an already created Excel form that has those fields blank, but other fields filled in.
And then, as part of the same macro, I want to have the Print pop-up come up in the Excel form to select where/how that file will get printed.I've tried exporting from the Project Details form, but it exports all the records. And then I am not sure how / where to code the vlookup formula (if that's even necessary) to take the data from the exported file, into the existing Excel form that needs to be filled in.
Can this even be done in one macro, or do I need to create two - one to export data from Access to Excel. And then another in Excel to vlookup the details from the exported file, into the existing Excel file.
It would be nice if I didn't have to put in what the vlookup criteria is. (i.e. AssignNr (which is the PK)) - if it could just be taken from the PROJECT DETAILS form's current record selection.
I would like passing values from first form until third form.
In the first form I have a list box after selecting items (For each selected item in first form I have 4 values) and pressing button (or right click of mouse) the second form will be open, then in the second form I have 2 option (inserting, deleting), when I select inserting or deleting in the second form, third form will be open, in the third form there is a "OK" button, when I press that, passed values from first form will be used for inserting or deleting records to the table.
I am trying to open a form in design mode and add controls, this i have done. I am doing this all in a class, and am having trouble saving the modified form.
I have tried using the following, both produce errors
I am using the method from allen browne [URL] .... to open a form and add it to a collection and when removing it it closes. actually, usually it does work so but i have now a form which does not close until i am hitting the reset button in VBE , is there something i could check why it's not functioning as desired ?
Just to add, this form has a subForm as well (might be the cause ?)
I have a timer form which closes the database after a period of time with DoCmd.Quit. Another form is open at this point but if a user has left it in the middle of editing it I want to be able to save the record in the other form and close it before the timer form closes the database.
What VBA do I need in the timer form to save the record and close the other form before DoCmd.Quit? Just to be clear the code is...
Private Sub Form_Timer() On Error Resume Next Me.Tag = Val(Me.Tag) - (Me.TimerInterval / 1000) Me.Caption = "The database will exit in " & Me.Tag & " seconds" If Val(Me.Tag) <= 0 Then
I have a 'main' table with a Project_Number that links all the data in my db together. I have another table that uses that Project_Number as a lookup field to connect that tables data to the main data. I created a 'main' form that has the ability to enter data for the 'main' table. I want to be able to press a button and have the second tables form pop up and add that that specific Project_Number. I added the button and went through the wizard process. I then added the linking info through the builder. It works fine if there is already data entered for the project_number in that specific field. but if the field is empty, the popup window doesn't recognize a project_number and doesn't add it to that record. below is what I am using. The project_number in the 'main' table is text and the Project_Number in the 2nd table in a number since it is a lookup field.

What I'm trying to accomplish is some sort of 'Order Confirmation' (filled with the info i have entered in my order form and sub_form fields) that i can copy and paste as a reply to their email-order.
I have taken 2 failed approaches so far:
1) I used a report to display the info
Private Sub Command103_Click() DoCmd.OpenReport "Order Confirmed", acViewReport, , "OrderID = " & Me!OrderID End Sub
This worked fine until the information was copied and pasted into outlook which upon doing so changed the column titles and layout
2) I used another form with a text box to fill with the data entered on the Order form
I have used one of the members' code which was posted in a tread before to create a search box in a form. This code works perfectly when the form itself is open. Otherwise, when I put this searching form along with other forms in one navigation form, I get the following error: "Enter Parameter Value: Forms!FRM_SearchMulti!SrchText"...The code that was used for the Search box is as following:
Private Sub SearchFor_Change() 'Create a string (text) variable Dim vSearchString As String 'Populate the string variable with the text entered in the Text Box SearchFor vSearchString = SearchFor.Text
I have inherited maintenance of an Access DB that I did not design and I'm having trouble with their Navigation Form setup. I created a form with a list box and two date fields, and figured out how to build a filter for the form that would open a specified report on a button click. It worked great as a stand-alone form, but when I added it to a navigation control in a navigation form I can't seem to find the right path to tell the VBA where to look for the filter criteria.
In the screen shot, the report to be displayed is in the detail of the "Report Center" tab on the far right of the navigation form "Main." the form "FilterSelection" is inserted in the "NavigationControl0" section under the navigation tabs. Criteria is selected/entered in "FilterSelection" and needs to be passed to the filter of the report that is opened when the "Project Tasks" navigation button is pressed. As I mentioned, when I created the form I put a button on it to open the form with the filter (built via SQL in VBA) it worked beautifully. But now that it's on the "NavigationControl0" object Access errors and can't find the fields where the data has been selected/entered.
i have a customer form and on the form i got a button to add equipment which opens another form, my question is how can i get the same company name from the customer form to be in the equipment form once i press the button?
i have done this so far
docmd.openform "EquipmentF",,,(not sure what to put here....i've tried "company = '" & company & "'" but this just seems to open the first company)
Is it possible to create a form and vb procedure within that particular form (ie. an OnClose event)?
Code:
Function CreateForm() Dim Form as Form set Form = CreateForm frm.Caption = "MyNewForm" frm.Recordsource = "Stuff" 'Do other stuff to form, save and close, open form again [Forms]![MyNewForm].OnClose = 'insert sub and/or call to procedure (if possible, haven't been successful yet) End Function
I got an error msg on form with closing. I have a main form (SalesReturnOrDamaged) and subform (SalesReturnOrDamagedSubform).
i have used a VBA code on main form Close Command button as per shown in Code Tag. But that is not working and shown an error msg as per screenshot. how to change that VBA code for empty form close without save the record?
Code: Private Sub Close_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Close_Click If Forms![SalesReturnOrDamaged]![SalesReturnOrDamagedSubform].Form![ItemCode].Value = "" Then Forms![SalesReturnOrDamaged]![SalesReturnOrDamagedSubform].Form![Product].Value = "" Forms![SalesReturnOrDamaged]![SalesReturnOrDamagedSubform].Form![MRP].Value = 0 Or ""
There's a button(Button1) on the main form (Form1) and on the second form (Form2).On Form1, I've got a link(LinkToForm2) to Form2.When people click on LinkToForm2, I want access to open Form2 and hide/show Button1 depending on whether it is shown/hidden in Form1.
Is there a way to, maybe, set a value on Form1_Deactivate (depending on whether Button1 is shown/hidden),So that, on Form2_Activate, it can check that value and hide/show Button1 accordingly?
I have two forms. Main form called "frmCarV" and another form "frmEngine"
The form frmCarV contains the its ID called VID that is connected with the frmEngine also.
I made a button on frmCarV form that when click opens form frmEngine as a new entry (because the form is for entering certain data) with the VID field already filled from the VID field in the frmCarV form where data about each car is put.
This is the VBA I placed in the button in the Main form frmCarV.
Private Sub btnUnosEvidR_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "frmEngine", , , "VID=" & Me.VID End Sub
When I click the button form opens but the VID field is not filled, it stays blank. Also the VID field in the form frmEngine is a combobox.
first form contains many textboxes second form is continuous and contains two textbox
I make a shortcut to the second form so i can open it with Shift+F1
Now when the form 2 open i want to double click on any row then the form 2 will close then the information well be copied to two specified textboxes in the form1
N.B form1 should still be opened when i open the form2
I am trying to make use of the OpenForm command to open a form to a record where a textbox matches the value of a text box on another form.
On Form1, I have a textbox called txtRtnRef, and it contains a reference number in a similar format to SWR-9
On Form2, I have a textbox called txtReOrderRef (control source ReOrderRef) which also contains a reference number in the same format (SWR-9)
I am trying to have a button next to the text box on Form1 that has an OnClick Event that opens Form2 to the record containing the same text reference number.I have tried, to no avail, a number of variations of the OpenForm command, the most recent being
I have 2 forms: Form_1 and Form_2. In each on them I have a 2 Fields named ID. I need when I open Form 2 to update the field ID with number from field ID, Form_1.
I have a form I want to close but somehow the codes running before it cancel it out before my closing code can run.
Here is the full code for the form.
Code: 'Check for Null Fields If IsNull(Me.cmb_to_customer) Or IsNull(Me.cmb_from_customer) Then MsgBox ("Please enter a TO CUSTOMER and FROM CUSTOMER to continue.") Cancel = True
[Code] .....
This is the ending code that will not run:
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' 'Continue or Not, If yes then wipe all fields, If no then exit form If MsgBox("Do you want to log-in/transfer more batteries?", vbOKCancel, "BATTERY LOG-IN/TRANSFER") = vbCancel Then DoCmd.Close acForm, "FRM_LOGIN" Else Me.cmb_from_customer = Null
