Navigation Buttons
Apr 6, 2006
I have created my own set of navigation buttons for last previous next first and new records. How can I also create the box which tells you which record you are currently looking at, and the one which tells you how many records there are in total?
Also, an error message comes up when i click previous if on the first record and when I click next when on the last. How do I blank out the previous button when on first record, and how do I change the function of the next button to "new record" when on the last record?
I am trying to do this as I want to move the navigation buttons from the bottom of the screen so if anyone knows a way of doing this without creating all new buttons then that would be even better.
Thanks guys.

Is this possible? I can't seem to find this q anywhere here so I thought I'd post.
I changed the colour of my form to white, but the Navigation Buttons at the bottom and the command buttons that I 've added stay at the default grey.
Is there anyway to change this? I right-clicked and tried changing it to white through the properties but there's nothing there that does this.
:confused:

First time user - so please forgive if this is already out there.
I want to hide the navigation buttons on a form and create a custom set of controls. I can create the buttons themselves but am having trouble with the "N of X", where:
X is the total number of records in the query, and
N is the current record showing in the form.
I can get X but how would I capture and display "N".
Any help would be appreciated.

I searched the forum on custom navigation buttons and found great posts about it. I downloaded 3 samples and the one that fit what I needed was SJ McAbney's dbNavSubform.zip. sfrmNavigation (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=87791) I imported sfrmNavigation per SJ McAbney's on the post into my database.
I didn't want to start a new thread so I posted on the thread: http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=88880
But I didn't get any responses.. I don't know if it's been overlooked.
I am encountering problems when I use dbNavSubForm in my database.
1. I made 2 copies of sfrmNavigation and I am using it on 2 of my forms.
On the main form that I am using it when I first open the database it shows record 1 of 1 when really there is more than 1 record. When I click on the next button it then goes to say 2 of 15.
How can I fix this so that when I open the database it will say 1 of 15 and not 1 of 1?
2. I have a Main form ex: frmMain and a subform on frmMain. I added the the subform (dbNavSubForm) onto my subform. Make sense? Here the navigation buttons do not work. When I try to add a new record it tells me "The object frmTOItems isn't open" When I try to click on the next or previous it tells me "Object variable or With block variable not set. How can I fix this?
I have captured a picture of my form so that you can see what I mean.
Thanks in advance

I have a form that uses command buttons to navigate from one record to the next. There is also a last record command button that when pressed will go to the last record, but the record indicator does not show the last record (i.e., Record 66 of 66), but show the same record that was active (i.e., Record 5 of 66) when the last record command button is clicked.
Is there any type of code that I can use that will update the record indicator to show the last record when the last record command button is clicked?
Thanks for any help

Does anybody know if it is possible to set extra code to any of the standard navigation buttons?
In other words, is there is Sub that corresponds to each navigation button that can be modified?
For example, for "Next>", is there a
Private Sub cmdNext_Click()
...
End Sub
???

Hello all,
I've looked at the examples of custom navigation buttons people have created. Some are better than others, but none of them are fully functional, in my opinion.
I like Stephen Leban's technique; manipulating a Parent's .Recordset from a SubForm. My goal is to create a set of instantly reusable custom navigation buttons.
However, even his code lacks Save and Delete buttons.
In studying this problem, I noticed something about the built-in navigation buttons that nobody seems to have addressed, even those who claim their button set mimics "exactly" the built-in buttons. None do.
And that is that when clicking the "New" button (built-in), the New and Next buttons are disabled. This is fine and expected.
Then, when any field on the form is changed (form made Dirty?), the built-in New and Next are instantly enabled.
Does anyone understand how this is being done?

Ok, I am trying to make some sort of thumbnail preview form. The image appears in the imgBox no problem, and it is grabbing it from the field. When I use a combo box to navigate the records it works flawlessly
HOWEVER, I would like my users to be able to press bckwds/fwds arrows so i made some arrows with the wizard and added some code. Heres how it looks
---------------------------------------
Private Sub cmdNext_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdNext_Click
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNext
Me.Requery
If Me!SamPhoto = "" Or IsNull(Me!SamPhoto) = True Then
imgSamPhoto.Picture = ""
lblNoPhoto.Visible = True
Else
lblNoPhoto.Visible = False
imgSamPhoto.Picture = Me![SamPhoto]
End If
MsgBox Me!SamPhoto
Exit_cmdNext_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdNext_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdNext_Click
End Sub
Private Sub cmdPrevious_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdPrevious_Click
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acPrevious
Me.Requery
If Me!SamPhoto = "" Or IsNull(Me!SamPhoto) = True Then
imgSamPhoto.Picture = ""
lblNoPhoto.Visible = True
Else
lblNoPhoto.Visible = False
imgSamPhoto.Picture = Me![SamPhoto]
End If
Exit_cmdPrevious_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdPrevious_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdPrevious_Click
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Load()
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acFirst
End Sub
------------------------------------------
My problem is that it never goes to the second record when i press next, and when i press back it says at end of recordset ( which makes sense ) but why would the back button work, and the fwd button do nothing ? I am hoping it is a small syntax error. Please help!

Sorry if this is too trivial to be posted as a new thread, I have spent a considerable amount of time trying to do this but have failed miserably.
I want to remove the set of command buttons at the bottom of the forms, (the navigation buttons to move the next record etc.) as i want to create my own. And also when I have got two or more subforms this looks too cluttered.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks.

I have a students database with fields like
Id
Name
Address
City
State
I have a mainform with just two fields (Name and State)
and then a subform, I want to be able to enter students name or state on a field in my mainform and click on FindStudent, and it displays the record on my subform.
I also want to have a AddNew record button on my main form, and when it's clicked, i will be able to enter data into the underlying table using my subform.
How do i achieve this?
Any input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks :) :)

I need to execute some VBA to load a new form in my navigation view, not a popup form.
If use DoCmd.OpenForm "DB History" it opens the form as a new form.
DoCmd.BrowseTo acBrowseToForm, "DB History" set the focus on the DB History navigation button but doesn't open it.
So I think I need to add the path.
'DoCmd.BrowseTo ObjectType:=acBrowseToForm, ObjectName:="DB History", 'PathToSubformControl:="??"
This is where I am stuck.
My main form is Navigation Form1
The sub ins NavigationSubForm
and the form loaded is Form1 which I would like to replace with DB History

I have few forms for which I have created a navigation form. Now in this navigation form, I have 4 tabs/ forms. I want to disable other 3 tabs/ forms when either of the one is active. I want to restrict user from switching the tab leaving the task incomplete in one tab.
It should show a popup msg, that "the task is active. Please submit before leaving the page."

To briefly explain my database; it is a bespoke referral management system within a hospital. Each record on the database contains patient demographic information, as well as information on their referral (i.e. date of referral, date of assessment, date of commencing treatment, discharge date etc.) Therefore, the same patient will appear multiple times in the database, with each separate record corresponding to a unique referral pathway.
The database forms are split to show patient information at the top, with referral information shown in a subform. I am trying to add navigation buttons to the subform that will allow the user to scroll through the referrals corresponding to the patient currently displayed on the main form.
Each patient has a uniquely identifiable number associated with them, and so it seems straightforward enough in my mind to have a button that will search for the record in the database where the patient's number matches the patient number of the current record, and where the referral date is minimum (for "First Referral"), maximum but less than current (for "Previous Referral"), minimum but greater than current (for "Next Referral"), and maximum (for "Last Referral").

In A2007 if you disable the Navigation Buttons on the form the Me.RecordCount will be set to 1 when the form opens ? I replace the Nav buttons with my own set but my "Go Next" button will not work untill I hit "Go to Last". This apparently restores the recordset count to the correct number of records.

I would like to hide/unhide the navigation pane completely by using two buttons (pop the hood & close the hood) in a form. At this moment I used the following code:
Private Sub Command77_Click()
DoCmd.SelectObject acTable, , True
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdWindowHide
End Sub
Private Sub Command78_Click()
DoCmd.SelectObject acTable, , True
End Sub
This however makes my form shut down and not my navigation pane.

In the code in this tutorial shown here [URL] It says to create RentalRates with no Navigation Buttons. Then after creating the form, that has no navigation buttons, I am to create 8 records in the next step. I assume it means to create the 8 records using the form RentalRates.
Now that is confusing. Do they enter the records using the newly created RentalRecords form or enter the records on the Table Categories; which is the RentalRecords form's record source?
Now I know of one way to enter the records which is to put Navigation Buttons to yes, enter the records and then put Navigation Buttons back to no. I do not think that is what they mean. What do they mean?

If I hide the AutoNumber ID field in a split form datasheet, nothing is displayed in the forms navigation buttons (Record x of x).
If I unhide the ID field, the record number and number of records correctly.
The control is Enabled and Visible.

I want to create a navigation form, or any form for that matter that has an embedded report. The report has data arranged by ClientID. I would like to create buttons down the left side of my form (why I thought a navigation form could work) where I can put the client name on the buttons and when I click them the report will filter to only show that clients data. I have client tables and the report data linked in queries, but just need to know how to get started with these buttons acting as ID sorters.
For example:
ClientID: 1 = Client: ABC Corp
In my report ClientID 1's data is grouped along with all other client ID's.
In my form I'd like buttons down the left side with ABC Corp written on it (followed by buttons for the other clients) and then when I click the ABC Corp button only ABC Corp's data shows on the page from the embedded report...

I'm working with a form in Access 2013 that uses the navigation buttons. I'm trying to have my criteria for a query link to a dropdown box on the form. I had no problems doing this in Access 2010 with normal forms, but I can't link the criteria, in the query to the Navigation buttons form box. I'm tried using
[Forms]![TheNavigationTab]![NavigationSubform].[Form]![Field]
And various forms of the above... but i still can't see to tell the query to find the critiera at this location...

I have a form that has a subform on it. The main form shows a category of furniture and has custom navigation buttons and a search text box for asset numbers and command button that runs the search. The subform shows the asset numbers associated with that furniture category, sometimes there is only one asset number, in other cases there could be 60. There is a scroll bar to scroll through the asset numbers when there are too many to see in the initial window.
The buttons all work as they should except when I search for an asset number that is part of a category that has too many asset numbers to show in the main window. When this happens the "previous" and "next" navigation buttons do not take you to the previous or next record. All of the other buttons on the form work though - you can go to the first, or the last record, and you can search for a new asset.This is the code for the search:
Code:
Private Sub cmdAssetSearch_Click()
Dim rs As Object
If IsNull(Me.TextAsset) Or Me.TextAsset = "" Then
MsgBox "Please type in an asset number to search for.", vbOKOnly
Me.TextAsset.SetFocus
[code]....
I've also attached a picture of what I mean when I say there are more asset numbers than what the window shows.

I have created a master form, which is a tab style. I have five additional forms that I want to use as sub-forms within each tab. I also want to include master navigation buttons that will work for each sub-form in unison. In other words if I navigate to record 10 on tab 1 and switch to tab 2, I want the new tab to show the information related to record 10. It would appear that I need to link them together in some fashion.
