MultiSelect Listbox
Apr 19, 2005I have a table, "people" which has all the main data stored. I have another table, "organizations" which I'd like to be able to use on a form to select which organizations people belong to. I created a button on my main form which opens another form on which a listbox with all the organizations shows. What I'd like to do is from the main form, click a button that brings up a new form. On the new form, I can select the affiliations. Then, when I close that form, a box on the main form shows what i've just selected. I got this to work with the listbox, but when I changed it to multi-select it stopped working. Help!! Thanks.

Jun 25, 2005I want to be able to select multiple items from a listbox, click a button, and then print the data related to that item selected using a report.
In the report to print the data, I have added the criteria
[Forms]![Print Labels]![List2]
This is the name of the listbox. However, this doesn't print the items selected in the list box.
Do I have to do this through VBA, or can I accomplish this through a query in the report?
Thanks!

Multiselect Listbox Passing To A Field
Jan 26, 2005I'm trying to create a database where a single "Classification" field is populated by selections made in a multiselect listbox and I can't figure out how to do this. Any help people can provide?
Table 1:
Name_ID <pk>
Name
Classification
Table 2:
Classification_ID <pk>
Classification
What I want to happen is click on a button next to the Classification field (text) and a popup form with a multi-select list loads (this part is easy, of course). The user can select as many classifications as they want, click the ok button and each item selected then goes back to the first form and populate in the Classification field (seperated by commas or semi-colons).
This possible?
Problem With Code In Multiselect Listbox
Jan 27, 2005Hi,
I have adapted code from ghudson's example on
'http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=52736
I have a subform called frmsJobPartsUsed, which contains a multiselect list box where the user can select multiply parts used for one job and click a save button, which saves the parts to rows on the same forms (see picture). The user then enters the number used and that number is taken away from the UnitsInStock.
This form is made up of the following two tables;
TblStore
PartNo
PartName
UnitsInStock
ReOrderLevel
Discountinued
Remark
tblPartsUsed
PartUsedID
JobDetailsID
PartNo
PartUsedNum
NumberUsed
The multiselect listbox is made form tblStore, PartNo, PartName and Discontinued = 0
This all works fine so far.
What is need to do is before the parts selected are saved to the table I want to run some code to check
If a part’s UnitsInStock is equal to 0 then Message box saying no stock left need to reorder. It won’t save it to the table.
Or else
If UnitsInStock is greater than 0 but less than or equal to ReOrderLevel
Message box saying Stock running low need to reorder asap.
I have this kind of working but it doesn’t seem to be finding the correct UnitsInStock for the part selected.
Here is the code;

Multiselect Listbox Passing To A Field
Apr 19, 2005OK - I have seen the other posts where individuals are trying to select multiple items from a list box and have a field populate with the selections. I have not seen a clear explanation defining if this is possible.
Essentially, I want to be able to query on the field and search for multiple selections within that field. Any recommendations as to how this can be achieved?
My next question, is if the selections in a multiple instance field are separated by a comma or some other character what is the best method to query for multile responses. For example, if the following data is in the field 1,2,3 and I want to query on 1 or 2?

Forms :: Listbox Multiselect - Adding Records To Junction Table
Apr 21, 2014I would like to use a listbox set to multiselect to add records to a junction table. I've been using code to accomplish this with checkboxes (love how it looks and works) but after moving my tables to Office 365 as the backend, linkedto a local frontend, sql does not like this particular set up, and I do not have the time or knowledge to sort out why. So what I need is a step by step to look at the many, in this case possible roles a contact can have, and choose one or more, which then creates a record in the junction table with the contact id and role id.
I would prefer to not use a combobox on a continuous form because every time a user goes to select roles he would have to scroll through all the choices for each separate role.
Forms :: Access 2003 - Scroll To Selected Item On Multiselect Listbox
Sep 2, 2013I've got a form with a multiselect listbox (extended) that holds a very long list of items (~90,000):
1 | Apple
2 | Orange
3 | Banana
...............
35313| Corn cob
...............
The user can select multiple items (non-sequential) on the listbox, say items 1 and 35313. I'd like the listbox to scroll (meaning display) to the currrently selected item, so that the user can see it while being processed.
I've seen stuff about property ListIndex, which does exactly that, but it's only useful when you have just ONE item selected (in a multiselect listbox apparently it deselects the rest of the items, so no point in using it, I guess, unless there's more to it!!).
So the key here is how to do the scrolling/display.
The code to loop through the listbox and process each selected item is attached:
Code:
Dim vItem As Variant
Dim Content as String
For Each vItem In Me.lst.ItemsSelected
'scroll to selected item ???
'processing of the selected item
Content = Me.lst.Column(1, vItem) 'copy the content to do sth with it
Me.lst.Selected(vItem) = False 'unselect the current item
Next vItem 'go to next selected item
how to scroll to the currently selected item? Mind that I need to go through the list of selected items to process them for further use (i.e, I need them selected).
Forms :: Hide Unchecked Values In A Listbox - Create Hyperlink On Listbox Values?
Jan 20, 2014Firstly, is it possible to hide unchecked values in a listbox? I have a user with several roles and I want to only show the ticked roles in the listbox.
Secondly, can you create a hyperlink on listbox values? i.e, if I click on "Manager" in the roles listbox, it follows that to another form and opens the record about managers?
ListBox Values
Apr 10, 2006I have designed a form with a Listbox which pulls information from a query.
The listbox multiselect vaue is set to NONE.
As I select a specific record, I have an update query which runs silently in the background through an implemented macro. The subroutine then requeries the listbox to update the latter with the latest values.
Here is a description of my problem:
1. After running the update query and upon requerying the listbox to update its values, I lose my initial listbox row selection. It is imperative that the listbox defaults to the user initial selection after the update requery action occured (note that this would be the same record).
I have searched the forum, but did not find a specific answer.
I thank you in advance.

Filter Same Values In Listbox
Jun 2, 2005Hi,
I have a table with training records. Each attendee is listed with date and the related document he was trained on.
Now i want to make a listbox where the user can choose between the different dates of the trainings. Now when several people where trained on the same day, i get some dates back multiple times in my listbox. When you had 100 on the same day, 100 times the date in that listbox. Is there a way to filter out the same dates and show each date only one single time in my listbox?
Thanks

Forms :: Only Show Certain Values In ListBox
Jan 30, 2014So I have a multi-select listbox with tick boxes and values in on my form. Is it possible to make so only the checked values are showing up and then not display the tick box?
I know I can use a combo box to display several values, but using a listbox like this would be easier on the eye.
Is it possible to use code to get a text box to show the selected items in the list box?
Displaying Relevant Values From Another Table In A Listbox
Jun 29, 2006I have a form that functions as information display/update for a table. It also needs to display a list of relevant codes from another table. The codes in the second table have an ID that will match an ID field on the main table. However when I do this I either get every code in the code table, or nothing.
Here is the SQL that I'm trying to use:
SELECT table_code_lookup.code_text, table_codes.code_extra, table_codes.alum_id, table_codes.ID
FROM (table_code_lookup INNER JOIN table_codes ON table_code_lookup.code_id=table_codes.code_num) INNER JOIN table_alumni ON table_codes.alum_id=table_alumni.ID
WHERE (((table_codes.alum_id)=me.id));
However anything I can think of putting for me.id doesn't work. I've written a sub that will modify the query and insert the correct ID num, but I can't figure out how to get it to run when I change records with the record selector.
I have the nagging feeling that I'm missing something totally simple, but can't figure out what it is, where am I going wrong?
Queries :: Inserting Values From A Listbox Into A Table
Jun 28, 2013inserting values from a listbox in to a table. I have a table with a field named: PrefReports. This field will hold data from values in a list box that the user selects.
Table: Profiles
Field Name: PrefReports Type: Memo
The user utilizes a form to input the values necessary for the query. I then have the query tied to a command button. When the command button is clicked, the query is executed.
The query is as follows:
INSERT INTO TblProfiles ( [Employee ID], FName, LName, Barcode, PrefReports )
VALUES ([forms]![FrmCreateNewProfile]![txtEmployeeID], [forms]![FrmCreateNewProfile]![txtEmployeeFName], [forms]![FrmCreateNewProfile]![txtEmployeeLName], [forms]![FrmCreateNewProfile]![txtBarcode], [forms]![FrmCreateNewProfile]!lstReports.Value);
How can I take what the user selects in the list box, and insert into my TblProfiles.PrefReports field? When I run the query, all other information makes it to the table except the list box values.

View 11 Replies View RelatedQueries :: Listbox Filter Not Returning Empty Values
Jun 14, 2013I have a form in which users can enter data in several textboxes to filter the listbox below it, this works great except for the fact that when a record lacks certain data it doesn't show up
Basically there are 4 filters, one for the name/id which works great, as the entries without id's show up just fine but this filter needs to be checked against the other 3 filters, for their group, education and type.
Lets use group as an example.
When a student has no group it should only show up when the group filter is an empty string. AFAIK the wildcards should see to that.
Currently however, when a student has no group, it doesnt show up at all unless I remove the | Like '*' & [groepFilter] & '*' | part from the query.
I've never used complicated WHERE's like this so it might be something very simple. I think I could get it to work using VBA and modifying the rowsource of the listbox from there but this would be a lot easier and I'm curious as to why this doesn't work.
The SQL:
SELECT Student.Studentindex, Student.studentid, Student.studentvn, Student.studenttv,
Student.studentan, Student.Groepcode, Opleiding.opleidingsnaam, Opleiding.type
FROM Student LEFT JOIN Opleiding ON Student.opleidingid = Opleiding.opleidingid
WHERE (((Student.studentid) Like '*' & [naamFilter] & '*') AND ((Student.Groepcode) Like '*' & [groepFilter] & '*')

General :: Put Combobox / Listbox Values In A Separate Table Or Not?
Jan 29, 2015Whenever I create a combobox, Access asks me if I want to grab the values from another table, or if I just want to manually input the possible values.
My question is: is one of the two solutions "better" than the other?
Let's imagine I am creating a Form where I can create a new Contact, and in a listbox (with multiple selections allowed) I want to list the possible character traits, so I have
- Funny
- Annoying
- Smart
- Interesting
- Good-looking
- ...
I think that if I need to store in the Contact records these possible traits, I will have to create a Many-to-Many relationship (therefor creating a junction table) between Contact and Traits.
On the other hand, could I do everything without grabbing values from an extra table and directly inputting the values in the listbox? How would these elements be stored in the Contact record if I allow multiple values in one single field?
Forms :: Combo Box Values Dependent On Record Set In Listbox
Jan 17, 2014Access 2010
windows 7
The database I'm working on stores product records. To support the user narrow down which product they want to use, the navigation form has a listbox that looks to several combox values to filter the records it displays. As the user selects values for additional comboxes, the list of products from the listbox is refined. What I would like to do is set the comboxes up so that they also have to check the listbox to determine which records they should display.
For example:
Comboxes: Customer, Species
Starting out the listbox shows all products. The user wants to find a particular product that is sold to "Harly Quinn's Crab Imporium". They select "Harly Quinn's Crab Imporium" from the customer combobox. The listbox updates to show only products sold to Harly Quinn. The database currently has this functionality. What I want to add comes next:
The user determines that there are still too many records being displayed in the listbox, so he/she attempts to refine the search further by selecting a species from the species combobox. Currently all species from the species table are selectable from the species combobx, meaning that if the user selects a species that isn't sold to Harly Quinn, that the listbox will show no records. What I would like the combobox to do is refer first to the listbox and determine which species are still viable options based on the records available from the listbox.
Forms :: Listbox Populating With Comma Separated Values
Jan 16, 2014I use Access 2003. I am trying to populate a list box with the names of files found in specific folder in my computer. The problem is that if the file name has a comma (,) in it, so the name is being separated in two parts - first what is before a comma and second what is after. I need them exactly as they appear in directory in order to open the files from this list box.

Jan 17, 2015Basically what I have is a form where a user has a drop down combo box that he can pick more than one value.
I then want to take what he has inputted e.g. Option1, Option2 and put that on a report in an unbound text box with another field value.
For example
=[Field1] & "/" & Option1/Option2
Those forward slashes are quite important as well, so any solution would need to include those.
