I've run into a strange problem. I'm trying to have an image box that you can double click and it will open a different form with a full sized image. When I open my form with the larger image, it asks me for a Parameter Value. Is there any way to stop it from asking me for that? Also, what is a parameter value and should I be typing something there?
Any ideas you may have would really help me out. Thanks a lot in advance!!
I have a database with lists clients across the UK. I have now been asked to provide options where users can select clients grouped by geopraphical area e.g say clients in Scotland.
I can of course do this but having numerous identical forms where the source queries have different parameters depending on the regions required.
The only problem with this is that I would need numerous forms and queries. Additionally, there are options on the form to navigate to linked forms which would all need to be unique.
What I would like to have options on my main (Switchboard Type) Introduction Form to select the region. The code on the relevent command button would include the parameter. I would therefore not require the additional forms.
The open form codes includes:
Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String
I feel i need something after "frmClients" such as qryClients.ClientArea = "Not Scotland". Various attempts to incorporate something has created errors.
I have searched for bits of code to copy other people better than I, and had some success but I am failing to complete, so it is now time for me to visit you all. I am trying to open a PDF from a button on a subform. The location of the PDF is specified in a field. I want to open the PDF and search for a Member ID criteria also listed in a field on the Form.This is my code:
Code:
Private Sub Text12_Click() Dim strPath As String Dim Searchmem As String strPath = [Notetxt] Searchmem = [MemID]

Adobe Reader reports "There was an error opening this document. The file cannot be found." but then opens the file (that's something).So it's the "search" bit that is the problem, and I cannot for the life of me get my search parameter to be used.
Whenever I open the form 'TrainingF' I get the 'Enter Parameter Value' msg box. I tried to look online but could not get rid of it. I have attached the file.
I have a report based on a query that has data for many dates. At the moment I have put a specific date in the criteria of the query so that I could build the report format. So it now displays all the data for the date i have in the criteria section. I will need to run this report several times per week so the specified date (and corresponding data in the report) will need to be changed to a new date when I open the report i.e. when I open my report I want to show data in the report only for a specified date.
Can I create a date parameter box open up when I open the report? Can I create a form with a button that when I click will open the report displaying data for that date? What would be the best way?I also need to display the specified date on the report.
In Access 2003 I create a query which for one field was link to a value on a form.
Now I have to duplicate this form and instead to duplicate this query I wanted to use a parameter inside this query for one field and then via VBA call this query and give a value for this parameter.
My query name is: Query_Parameter
Fields inside: "Asset_Name" and "Isin" Parameter is under the "Isin" field: [Look_Isin]
My VBA code is:
Sub Test_Call_ISIN() Dim dbs As DAO.Database Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Set dbs = CurrentDb 'Get the parameter query

Basically I have a Customer Form, which I have a New party button on it,this button opens up the party form to a new party, what I would like it to do is open up a new party but make the new party for the customer I had selected in the previous form.I have tried the GoTo macro's but cannot seem to get it to work.
I am thinking on clicking the button it will need to get the Customer ID, and then open the party form, create new party, and paste in the Customer ID, which then updates the Name - Date - Address - Company Fields.
I want to have a form that is based on a query. I want the first box to be a dropdown and fill in 6 textboxes after selectino (I have already made this) Then I want to select a start date and an end date for whomever was selected in the begining dropdown. I don't know how to get the query to do this. It is like a parameter but I don't want messages, I want txt boxes.
Does anybody know how to have a text box on a form "satisfy" a parameter in a query? I want to enter two dates and have a subreport show information from them? (The records shown will only be between those two dates) How do I do this? (I don't want the parameter to pop up on form open) Something like (Date1) = Parameter1 (Date2) = Parameter2
I have a simple parameter form where the users enter selectives for their queries. They usually want the top 100 records, but would like to select the number of records from that same form. I tried adding the forms' field name into the top records field in the query but it will take only a number. Any suggestions about setting it form the form or using VBA?
I have a form that allows the user to "Enter a Parameter Value" that determines the data that will show up on that form. I'd be pleased to know:
1) How can I display the Parameter Value, choosen by the user, in the form.
2) Consider a form that will display all the students whose name is having Vincent. If the user doesn't know the complete name, how can he define the parameter value. I mean in some languages I can use Parameter Value = Vincent* and it will show me all the students whose name includes Vincent. And in Access? How can I do that?

Hi, I have a combo box based on a parameter query, which is on a sub form. I want the query to use the existing value from a field on the main form as the parameter, without getting the "Enter parameter" box. please help.
I have searched the form and what I am trying my best to do right now is create a form with a textbox and a button. In the textbox I would just put in the parameter of a query and the query result or report would open up that is based on it. Can someone give me an example or point me in the right direction.
The reason im trying to do it this way is I would be able to customize the form to go with the rest of the database's layout....
I currently have a parameter form named "Fm_Commander_Parameter" and a report named "Rpt_Bldgs_by_Commander". On the parameter form I have a unbound drop down. On the After Update have I this code that opens the report.
Private Sub Cmb_Commander_AfterUpdate() DoCmd.OpenReport "Rpt_Bldgs_by_Commander", acViewPreview DoCmd.Close acForm, "Fm_Commander_Parameter" End Sub
In the Query for the report for the Commander field I have the parameter as [Forms]![Fm_Commander_Parameter]![Cmb_Commander]..how to write code very well and am unsure this can be done, but what I would like to do is remove the 'After Update' on the form and on 'Open' of the report I would like to write a code to go to the form, allow them to select the commander, then go back to the report query with the selection. This way I could use the Parameter Form with other reports. Below is the code I've come up with that will be place in 'Open' on the report.
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer) DoCmd.OpenForm "Fm_Commander_Parameter", acNormal (I don't know what to enter to keep the form open to enter the data. Without the below command it will run the report but the parameter form stays open.) DoCmd.Close acForm, "Fm_Commander_Parameter" End Sub
how to get a Parameter from a form into a query.I have a form with a subform and a table. However I want to enter a number in the Form and then the subform shall display all entries from the table with that number as a specific field. So to speak i want to apply a filter. Can i do that somehow without using VBA ? And without entering the number in that tiny dialog window that pops up when i use "[ ... ]" brackets in my query ? This is may query so far .... and it is the datasrc for my subform ...
Code: SELECT tbl_autos.ID, tbl_autos.Typ, tbl_autos.Alter, tbl_autos.BesitzerID FROM tbl_autos WHERE tbl_autos.GaragenID = <Param>;

I want to open another form automatically when an initial form opens, both are non popup) I have tried open and load events - but still the calling form appears on top of the called form.
How do I get the two forms to open form 1 and then form 2?
Also I cannot use the timer event as this is doing something else.
I'm trying to use an Invoice number from an Invoice form to populate a table of Invoice Lines with relevant records (linking by Invoice number). I realise the following SQL code isn't an append query, but I've simplified it to make it easier to explain
SELECT [Forms]![fInvoices]![SPInvNumber] AS MTInvNumber, tInvoices.SPInvNumber FROM tInvoices WHERE (((tInvoices.SPInvNumber)=[Forms]![fInvoices]![SPInvNumber]));
The output I get for this query is something along the lines of:
MTINvNumber | SPInvNumber 쉠 | 49760
THe MTInvNumber should read the same as the SPInvNumber, but it doesn't. If you can't see the above, its some sort of weird chinese/japanese character I think!
I thought maybe it was a display error, but I tried using it in my append query, and it inserted it as garbage too. The weirdest bit is it actually regards the form information as equalling the SPINvNumber from the tInvoices table! :S
Any clues on how I get it to format correctly??? I'm very tired now so it's bound to be something simple!
I know this is probably a basic question- but Im not finding a clear answer here.
Basically- I have a value that I want to select from a drop down box on a form (not created yet). That value will get inserted into my query for a calculation I am doing. The form will pop up the results of the query in a table/dataset.
How do I designate the variable in the query that is being inserted from the form? I am using Access 2002- is there a way to visually perform this task (ie- drag/drop type thing)? Thanks guys!
I have a report query that uses a combo box on a form to collect the parameters. I would like to be able to include an option that would be like not having any criteria at all, to show all the records. I have tried several combinations in the criteria to get it to work and haven't found a way yet.
I have tried various different versions of what you see above and none have worked. The true part and the false part both work if separated and tested. Is it possible to make this work or is there better way to do this?
