Modules & VBA :: Copy File To New Directory On Button Click?

Dec 22, 2014

Is it possible in access, to create a button that will copy a file to a new directory? Specifically, the data field in question is an access hyperlink that we can click on to open a PDF drawing of a part. I just want to copy the file the hyperlink points to, into a new directory.

EX:
X:database/drawings/somefile.pdf
X:erp/drawings/somefile.pdf

I don't think a macro can do this, but perhaps vbscript can.

Forms :: Command Button On Click Function - Search By Hedging Program

Jun 26, 2014

I have a command button using this code:

If Me.Setfilter.Caption = "Search By Hedging Program" Then
Me.Filter = "Hedging Program"
Me.FilterOn = True
cmd.Setfilter.Caption = "Don't Search By Hedge Program"
Else
Me.FilterOn = False
cmd.Setfilter.Caption = "Search By Hedging Program"
End If

Hedging program is the column from the table I am trying to filter, it is a yes/no column. I want it to return all yes values in my query if it says search by hedging program and if it says Don't search by hedging program I want it to disregard the filter. I also have it set so that when I click the button it changes the caption from one to the other. So I don't know if I really need the cmd.setfilter lines because they may do the same as my command button on click function.

Code Triggered From Label On Click Behaves Differently From Command Button On Click

Nov 7, 2006

Often I use Labels as buttons due to the fact I can colour them the way I want, and use the on click event to trigger code.
The code below however works for a command button, but not a label button.

DoCmd.OpenForm "frmdatetime"
Do While Forms!frmdatetime!OKFlag.Caption = "False"
DoEvents
Loop

When this code is run by clicking on a command button, it works fine.
If run by clicking on a label, frmdatetime opens, but the mouse will not work on either of the 2 open forms unless you go down to the windows task bar, jump onto another window, and back onto frmdatetime.
If I remove the loop with the DoEvents in it, then the problem does not occur.

Can anyone enlighten me as to why this behaviour occurs.

Thanks

Richard

Modules & VBA :: Check Directory For A Folder Name Which Has Certain String In It

Jul 25, 2013

I'm trying to check a directory for a folder name which has a certain string in it (RecNum)

However the fso object filesys.FolderExists does not take an argument when looking for part of a folder name on a particular path.

What I basically want to do is look in a directory for a folder with the RecNum variable as part of the folder name. if it exists open it, if not create it.

This is how far i've got:-

targetdir = targetpath & RecNum & ChannelPartner & Enduser

Set filesys = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If filesys.FolderExists(targetdir) Then GoTo function_end
MkDir targetdir
If filesys.FolderExists(copypath) Then
filesys.CopyFolder copypath, targetdir
End If
MsgBox ("folder created")
function_end:

Shell "Explorer.exe /n,/e," & targetdir, vbNormalFocus

Forms :: Use A Hyperlink To Open A Folder Within A Specific Directory

Nov 26, 2014

I have 3 attachment boxes in my table that appears in a form.each attachment box contains specific files (not specific as in extension such as PDF, JPEG, etc.) but specific as in Company Documents, Certifications, Resumes. The issue is there's a lot of document and I see my database growing (fast)...My question finally is....

Can I use a Hyperlink to open a folder within a specific directory where multiple file are located so i can open the specific file need there RATHER than attaching them in the attachment box individually?.?.....If not how this can be done (no SQL) unless that route is very simple and basic coding.

My thinking would be to place the file path to the documents in the table and hyper link that column in the table, but not knowing exactly how Hyperlinks work I don't think it would actually work..

Modules & VBA :: Creating Report On Button Click With Appropriate Colour Of Each Record

Dec 10, 2014

I have access table that stores details as attached. Just to give an example how data is stored , I copied data from Access table to excelsheet. Now I would like to create a report that will run when a button is clicked on the form and the vba code should display the last 7 dates from todays dates in the report along with all the data and colour the record Green,Amber and Red depending upon the Update Date and Target Date. If the Target date exceeds then that records should be coloured "Red" and if todays date equals to Date then the record should be amber and if greater than Date but less than Target Date then it should be Green.

So the report should display the last 7 dates records from todays date and the appropriate color of each record to let everyone know if its under target, meets target etc.

Help!Command Button Captions On Click

Aug 9, 2005

Hi all!

I have this command button whose caption switches from update record to save record with a msgbox verifying if the person really wants to take this action. On click the user is then allowed to update the record then in theory they would be able to hit the same button whose caption now reads save record, the msg box would appear with a yes or no answer required. The code I have is putting the msg box after the user clicks the update button.

Anyhelp and/or suggestions would be most appreciated!


Private Sub cmdOpen3_Click()

stDocName = "frmSearch"

If cmdOpen3.Caption = "&Update Record" Then
If IsNull(Me.FTMSubform.SourceObject) = False Then
Me.FTMSubform.SourceObject = "frmFTMInfo"

Me.FTMSubform.Form!txtFirstName.Enabled = True
Me.FTMSubform.Form!txtFirstName.Locked = False
Me.FTMSubform.Form!txtFirstName.BackStyle = 1
Me.cmdOpen3.Enabled = True
Me.cmdOpen3.Caption = "&Save Record"
Me.cmdOpen4.Enabled = False
Me.cmdOpen4.Caption = "&Update Record"
Else
Me.FTMSubform.Form!txtFirstName.Enabled = False
Me.FTMSubform.Form!txtFirstName.Locked = True
Me.FTMSubform.Form!txtFirstName.BackStyle = 0
Me.cmdOpen3.Enabled = False
Me.cmdOpen3.Caption = "&Save Record"
Me.cmdOpen4.Enabled = True
Me.cmdOpen4.Caption = "&Update Record"
End If
End If

If cmdOpen3.Caption = "&Save Record" Then
If IsNull(Me.FTMSubform.SourceObject) = False Then
Me.FTMSubform.SourceObject = "frmFTMInfo"
If MsgBox("Save update to this individual?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Save Update?") = vbYes Then
DoCmd.Save
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmFTM"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName
Else
MsgBox "Return to the FTMInfo Form!", vbInformation, "Save Function Aborted!"
End If
End If
End If
End Sub

Browse [Find A Directory Or File]

May 10, 2005

(Referring to this post (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=75790) by ghudson)


Hi,

This post was very useful, it really helped me out, but I do have one question. My database will be used by multiple users and will be stored on a mapped network drive, just as the files that I want to link to. Now unfortunately not all machines are configured the same, so the same network drive can have different drive letters depending on the machine and this might cause problems. Is there a way to modify the code to get the absolute network path instead of the drive letter?

thx

Forms :: Filter Form With Two Text Boxes / Command Button?

Mar 22, 2013

I am trying to filter a form by using two unbound text boxes that a user can enter in their criteria and then clicking a command button to filter the form using the criteria entered into the text boxes. My fields are as follows:

Bound Field: MondayD1
Unbound text box: txtMonday
Bound Field: SundayD7
Unbound text box: txtSunday
Command Button: cmdSelect
MondayD1 = txtMonday
SundayD7 = txtSunday

I have looked up several options using vb for the on click event of the command button but I either get an error message or the form shows up blank.

Modules & VBA :: Linked Record Not Opening When Click On ID Text Field

Dec 17, 2014

My form used to work and as I kept adding event scripts now when I click on the ID text field, it doesn't open the linked record, but a blank record with 'Filtered' showing on the bottom navigation. I guess a question I have is,

-is there an order on which the procedure scripts run
-do they all run everytime, or just the specific event script

===================================
Private Sub Company_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "frm Company", , , "[ID] = " & [ID]
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmCompanyDirectory"
End Sub
===================================

I used to have code on a button on the "frmCompanyDirectory" that added a new record to "frm Company" and that's when the ID = ID stopped working.

Forms :: Command Button To Save Changes On The Record

Sep 30, 2014

I have a form named CORRES_TYP with 3 text boxes and a list box. I also have a separate table with 3 field from where the information I put in the form was saved.

In my form whenever I put information on the textbox at hit add record button, these information are saved in my table and will reflect on the listbox on my form below the textboxes. Also if I select a record in the Listbox the record I selected will apprear on the corresponding textbox in the same form.

My problem is that I have been trying to create a command button that will save and change the existing record everytime I select an item in the list box and modify the information through the textbox. Here are some infromation about my table and form:

Table name = CORRES_TYP
Field 1 = CODE (Primary key, No Duplicates)
Field 2 = DESCRIPTION
Field 3 = FOLDER

Form name = CORRES_TYP
Textbox 1 = CODE
Textbox 2 = DESCRIPTION
Textbox 3 = FOLDER
Listbox name = LIST14

VBA Code:
Go To Previous Record : DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acPrevious
Go To Next Record : DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNext

Forms :: Command Button To Add New Record In Subform

Nov 5, 2013

I am designing a database to manage hospital patient data. I will have to enter info at various points, e.g. when a patient is referred, admitted, discharged...

So for example, I have a main form with the patient's name and two subforms, one with the referral details (e.g. date, name of referrer...), and one with the admission details (e.g. date, diagnosis). They are linked through Parent-child links to the main form by PatientID. So, when I enter a new PatientID in the main form, the ID in the subforms is automatically added/synchronized.

However, I would like it not to be...since not all patients that are referred are then admitted. Therefore I would like to have a command button in the main Form that allows me to control when a new patient record is added to the admission subform. In other words, I would like an "Add a new Record in the admissions subform" button, which then creates a new record, with matching PatientID in the admissions subform (and in the related table). Is this possible???

I have tried using the command button wizard but it either requires a record to be already present in the subform, or it takes me to the first record of the form, and not the matching PatientID one.

Browse [Find A Directory Or File] Code

Dec 11, 2006

I'm having a small difficulty in using the code example ghudson posted for Browse [Find a directory or file]. First off, the code works great. Thanks a lot for posting it!

The problem I am having is when linking a folder via dBrowseDirectory. The folders I am linking are on a shared network drive and I am trying to figure out how to set the initial directory to default to the networked PC. This way the user doesn't have to navigate to the shared drive every time. All they would have to do is navigate to the particular folder to link (2 clicks instead of 10+).

The dBrowseFiles function allows to set an initial directory, however I cannot figure out how to set it for dBrowseDirectory. Is there any way to do this by altering your code for dBrowseDirectory?

Thanks in advance!

Forms :: Command Button - Insert Into Single Record

Dec 3, 2014

I currently have a command button to run the following...

DoCmd.OpenQuery "Credit Card Report", , acAdd

Which is an appended query.

However, I don't want it to add the whole table each time this is pushed but when trying to use...

DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO [Credit Cards] ([Provider's Name], [Patient Name], [Patient Account Number] ... VALUES ([Provider's Name.Value], [Patient Account Number.Value], [Patient Account Number.Value]"

It doesn't want to add the single record and gives me an error. I'm pretty sure my syntax is wrong but not sure how to correct it.

The fields I want added are ... Provider's Name , Patient Name, Patient Account Number...
