Ok i'm opening a form with the intention of grabbing the last reference number and adding one then moving to a new record.
However the form opens on the first record. Here is my code.
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Dim lastbookref As String
Dim expans As String
Dim Newbookref As Integer
Form_frmbooking.RecordSource = "SELECT tblbooking.Bookingno, tblbooking.Clientno, tblbooking.Sampledate, tblbooking.Sampleref, tblbooking.[Sample place], tblbooking.Recieveddate, tblbooking.Recievedby FROM tblbooking WHERE (((tblbooking.Bookingno) Like """ & Left(Form_frmClient.Clientname, 3) & "*""));"
If Form_frmbooking.Recordset.BOF = True Then
Form_frmbooking.Bookingno = Left(Form_frmClient.Clientname, 3) & "/00/0001"
Else
Form_frmbooking.Recordset.MoveLast
lastbookref = Form_frmbooking.Bookingno
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
Newbookref = Val(Right(lastbookref, 4)) + 1
Select Case Newbookref
Case Is < 10
expans = "000" & Newbookref
Case Is < 100
expans = "00" & Newbookref
Case Is < 1000
expans = "0" & Newbookref
End Select
Form_frmbooking.Bookingno = Left(Form_frmClient.Clientname, 3) & "/00/" & expans
End If
End Sub
Anyone have any idea why this is not moving the new record.
Even more bizarrely the new booking reference is inserted into the new record....its just that the form opens up on the first record.
When I add a record in the subform and then move to the next record whilst still in the subform, the main form jumps back to its first record? I then have to move back to the right record in the main form to update the next record in the subform.
I want to move to the next record in the subform without affecting the main form.
I would like to be able to switch between these two forms and the form automatically set focus to the record that I was on the form prior. Meaning if I am on record 3 on Form A and navigate to Form B, I would like to automatically set focus to record 3. Is this possible?
A possible issue after this gets sorted out is what happens if with the same scenario above record 3 does not exits? is it possible in that instance to simply requery the form?
I have created a Form based from a Table. On one of the fields, I need to be required inside the Form before moving to the next record of that form. I can not make the required field in the table, because I have to append information day to day.
Also, the required field is a combo box option that is limit to the list.
What kind of Code I can do inside the form of the specific field to make it required before clicking onto the next record. It does not matter if the processor closes out of the form before updating, only if moving to the next record.
I have a form "IntUnderwriterSearchByName" which is based on the query "Search by Name". This form opens with a parameter (please enter name of broker) and is set out like a datasheet with the following fields- "Broker Name", "Domicile", "Broker Code" and a couple of others. I'd like to be able to click on a record and open the form "IntUnderwriterPopUp" so that the details of that specified record are displayed.
Broker Code is what I'd like the form to look for and this Broker Code is unique for every one of the 900 or so records. This code can be numerical e.g. 01233 but also can be a mixture of both e.g. EU2885. It is also worth noting that this code is not the primary key- i have an autonumber (called ID) that does this- but this field does not appear on the form.
I am creating an events database. In my main form, I have all the details of a single event (billing code, fees, customer, support personnel, etc.). Then, I have a subform (form view) that lists each of the other services which share an event ID (this ID comes from a separate, unrelated events management suite). In the subform, I display the most-commonly-edited fields so that they are editable without navigating to a different record.
However, there will be instances where it becomes necessary to navigate to one of the records listed in the subform. I would like to make this a quick process by just clicking on the primary key in the subform, and have the corresponding record appear in the main form.
In my searches I've found a common suggestion to use a DoCmd.OpenForm method where the form opens to that specific record -- in effect filtering by the primary key number. I don't prefer this method because it disables the ability to navigate to other records using the previous, next, find records, (etc.) buttons without closing and re-opening the form.
Is there a way to make the main form 'jump' to a specific record by clicking on a control in the subform, without limiting the ability to navigate in the main form?
I have a subform with records of call details (date, time, subject) - the date and time are autogenerated and subject is a text field. After entering text in the subject field and then clicking on the close button in the main form, or clicking anywhere else in the main form, the record is saved to the table. However, if I enter text in the subject field and then move up to view previous records (within the subform) and then click the close button in the main form the record is not saved in the table. How can I either save the record before allowing the user to move to another record within the subform or before exiting the subform set the focus to the new record so that it will be saved on exit?
I have a continuous form in which I put a command button for each record called "detail". I would like to click on the "detail" button and make it open another form containing all (and only) the info on this record.
At first I refused to use an "id" to link both forms, but finally I added the "id" in the table... however still does not work.
continuous form: "04 - GASTOS_BUSQUEDA" id field on continuous form: "Gastid"
pop-up (details) form: "GASTOS_EDITAR" id on pop-up (details) form: "editar_id"
This is what I have tried on the "click" properties of the "details" button field (called "btn_editgs"):
4) Private Sub btn_editgs_Click() On Error GoTo btn_editgs_Click_Err Dim strWhere As String strWhere = "[editar_id] = " & Me.Gastid DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , strWhere btn_editgs_Click_Exit: Exit Sub btn_editgs_Click_Err: MsgBox Error$ Resume btn_editgs_Click_Exit End Sub
I am trying to create a proposal log for my company to make things easier to track. I have made a multiple items form to list the proposals. I want to be able to double click the record to open up another form (that i have already created) that shows the information from the proposal table and the proposal details table. So.....
I want to double click the field named "Proposal Name" and have it open up to form i have called "proposals details form".
I have a main form[frmResearchNotes] with combo box controls that filters a query populating [subfrmNotelist] containing several records from the filtered query. From there, I double click on a field within one of the remaining records, [CompanyName] for example, and it opens the new form[frmNoteDetail]. The problem is that second form is not displaying that selected record. The second form's record source has been set to the same query so when it loads, it displays the same info but it's displaying the 1st record out of the entire filtered list, not the record I clicked on in that list.
I figured I could use the strWhere function to copy the record I selected in the event procedure and then open the new form with those details. Not sure how to actually do this with VBA or if it's even the correct approach.
I have three objects a Main_Table , ClientDataForm and a MapForm all three share a common ClientID number
From that Main_Table I have created a ClientDataForm form which I enter all Data
From ClientDataForm I wish to create a button on it which runs a Macro that Saves ClientDataForm Record and then populates another form named MapForm with whatever record is currently open in Form One whether a newly created one or previous record.
How would I write this code for that button? Also why I would write it that way?
i have a form that has various buttons. one button will open a form to add a payment based on the person shown on the main form. how can i open the new form to be ready for a new record but already set up for the person shown? for example: "main form" the name shows Nigel Shaw press button " add payment" Payment form opens on top ready to receive info with my name already shown.
i have based my payment form on a qry and i core around ContractorID
I have a form with a sub form. The form allows users to enter data into the database and the subform displays all records in the database. I want users to be able to click on one of the records displayed in the subform and that record to display on the form in the format it was entered.
I have a database to keep track of my mp3 collection. Amongst my tables I have the following:
tblSingers (SingerID, Singer etc) tblAlbums (AlbumID, Album etc) tblSongs (SongID, Song etc) tblSongsSingers (SingerID, SongID) tblSongsAlbums (SongID, AlbumID)
Eventually, from these tables i created the required queries and forms.
Now i created a new form for searching purposes, so in the form header i put some unbound combo boxes which are populated from the above mentioned tables (ex. the singers combo, has this rowsource SELECT tblSingers.SingerID, tblSingers.Singer FROM tblSingers ORDER BY tblSingers.Singer; ... with a column count of 2, widths 0cm, 2.542cm). Eventually, when i choose a singer from this combo box i will requery the form, and it will display only those songs for the singer chosen. So far so good.
My problem now is here, i want that from the records which are displayed if i will double click on them, the main songs form will be opened and it will display the record in this form as well.
In similar situations I used to do it as follows:
Dim stLinkCriteria As String stLinkCriteria = "[txtSongID] = " & Me.SongID DoCmd.OpenForm "frmSongs", , , stLinkCriteria
However, this time first i am getting the parameter box to enter the txtSongID and then another parameter box prompting me for qrySongs.Singer and if in this boxes i will try to put some data, i get run time error 3009.
I want to make a form where I can only make a new record. I basically need a normal form that opens and automatically clicks the new record button. I do not want to be able to view and of the other records, only see the new record that I am putting in.
I am starting to get back into access and I am finding out that I am very rusty at it. I am having a hard time figuring out how to open a form from a button on a specific record. What I have is a table that is built like this:
Shop Table ShopID Shop
What I want to do is have a form that has a button for each shop in the "Shop Table" and open a form showing only the records for each shop. I am sure this isn't very hard but for some reason I can not get it to work no matter what I do. Thank in advance.
What I want to do is click on a button in an existing form which shows one record at a time, and another form opens that relates to that particular record.
The current form has a subform in a one to many relationship.
hey guys, was wondering the coding so that when a form is opened, it automatically sets you up with a blank record. This thread has probably already been done, but I would appreciate any help
I need SQL Statements to use in VBS code for microsoft access that will move the current record being displyed on the form (lets say the table name is called 'old') to another table called 'new'. Also the record that is being moved to the new table needs to be deleted from the 'old table'. All of this needs to be done with the click of the mouse on the 'old' form.
I have code for a button click event. Essentially I have a main table form that I use to enter customer data and info. I also have a button that I use to add that customer to a separate table that I use for special Customers. My code copies all the data I need copied to my other table, so I wont waste space here typing my code that actually copies the data to the new table. What I will list are the two commands I am using after that code, to close the current form (the one with the button) and open the form for entering special customer information (the form to edit data on my other table). It works flawlessly, but when it opens the other form, it opens to the first record. I want to know how to make it open to the record which I was viewing when I clicked the button to copy the data.
DoCmd.OpenForm "Special Customer Data Entry", , , Number = Me.Number DoCmd.Close acForm, "Customer Data"
table 2 (form2) Reference (fK) workbook reference (PK) auto number
Table 3 (sub form within in form2) Reference (FK) workbook reference (fK) data Reference (pk) auto number
Each table is a form that is linked via the keys. On form 1 i have a button that is to open the form2, which it does but every time i open the form a new record is added. Why and how do i prevent this.
Then what i want to do is add a button for a new form on table 2 form but use the same reference as the record as presently displayed. How do i add new record using the same Reference but new workbook Reference?
