I am a newbie in access and would appreciate if someone could help me with a delicate problem i have
I have listbox in formA named "Liste1", this listbox contains a departmentvalue (unique) in the first column shown in the listbox.
What i want to do is open a new form (frmStructureDetails) by doubleclicking on the listbox, and i want the new form to load with filter on that department. Btw the departmentvalue is textformatted.
The result i get is a dialoguebox opening and not seeming to recognize which value to use, if i fill inn the value i clicked on the form loads with the correct data.
What am i doing wrong:
Private Sub Liste1_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
On Error GoTo Err_SearchList_DblClick
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
I have a form which has a listbox listing all the letters a student has had sent home. Basically i want to be able to click on a letter in the list box and for a popup form to open with the record details. However it just brings up a blank record.
The list box has a unique field called standardletterID.
the code behind the button to filter was just used through the wizard to open the popup form is:
Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String
I have a list box on a form with 10 items to choose from. When a item is chosen I want a form to open (OnOpen or OnLoad Event ??) with a recordsource depending on one of the 10 items chosen in the list box. The recordsource is an sql statement which will change/depend on the item selected The 10 items refer to 10 different tables.
Need help on a list box issue. Solution is probably real simple, just can't see it with my bleary eyes.
I have a form (INSTLKP) with only a list box (List6) based on a table ((tblPersData) with fields PersdataID; SSN; Last; First; MI) on it. When I open the form up, the listbox does display all records associated withthe table. I would like to doubleclick on a desired SSN in the list box and have that record open up in a form (Perssub1) in edit mode.
And that is where the rub is... I have the following code in the On doubleclick event of List6
I have a listbox on a form that show all Files for a particular volunteer. I have an "Edit File" button below the listbox to be able to edit that particular file. Is there a way about opening that form to that specific record without using a query?
I have 2 forms: frmExcEntry and frmItemSearch. frmExcEntry is a data entry form where the associate enters PO#, Item#, Qty, etc. frmItemSearch is a popup form that is used to narrow the search of the Item# from frmExcEntry. Right now, when the associate types the Item# (either PartNo or FactNo)in the txtItemNo control on frmExcEntry, frmItemSearch opens (frmExcEntry remains open) with all potential item #'s associated with the text entered in [txtItemNo]...(there could be multiple FactNo in our inventory system but PartNo is unique and the bound field for the control). frmItemSearch uses an unbound textbox (txtSearch) that populates with the text from frmExcEntry on txtSearch_GotFocus and queries a listbox with the list of possible PartNo to select. I want the associate to be able to double-click the accurate PartNo from the list box which will then update the value initially typed in txtItemNo and copy the PartNo over txtItemNo in the currently open frmExcEntry.
I have a list box called "product list box" based on a query called "searchqry", i also have another listbox called "type list box" , how do i get the type list box to only show "types" based on the section in products list box?
I designed a simple form that has a listbox and a subform. I am using Northwind database for testing.
I would like to be able to display on a subform only records based on a value of a list box.
I created a listbox using a wizard and selected an option 'find a record on my form based on the value I selected in my list box'. This kind of works but it does not display all records matching criteria.
Attached print screen 1 shows my table and there are six records for 'Las Vegas' but my sub-form displays only three for Karen Toh (print screen 2) and all records for John Edwards are missing. I am not really sure how to fix this problem.
Ideally I would like to take this a step further and do another list box with Last Name and then filter data even further down so for example if I select Last Vegas and Edwards then the form would show me only matching records.
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 have one table containing name of restaurant with its address etc. Then i created another table to list out the restaurant workers names and details. Just as an example,
Table:Restaurant Restaurant name Address line 1 Address line 2 Restaurant # Website
Table:StaffContact Staff Role Name speciality email phone
I have the main form that has all the restaurant details only. And i have another form containing the Staff information. Please note the two table have a relation and it works well.
Now to make it user friendly(basically easier for the lazy ones), I dragged the staff contact form on to my main form and displayed it as a datasheet(basically a sub form).
Now, my boss does not want users to add/delete on this sub form(datasheet). So,he wants me to create buttons to open new record of staff for each restaurant(new form)
My issue is with opening a new record to enter a new person to the staff list and give them a role as well in form view.The new form has
So i ran a Macro, with open form with Where condition
I have a Form1 that is based on a select query with a criteria [Enter PIN number]. When we enter the PIN it returns the correct result. I want to have a button that opens a second form based on the same PIN number entered to open the first (in fact there will be numerous forms I want opened based on this PIN).
Example:
Sidewalk - button Curb X button Tree - button Hydrant X button
In the example above, only CURB and HYDRANT returned an entry. Therefore when I click on the button next to CURB I'd like the frmCurb to open showing the data based on the PIN numbered entered to open the From1, and when I click on the button next to HYDRANT it would open frmHydrant showing the data for HYDRANT based on the same PIN number entered to open the Form1.
When I have a form called "SiteForm" open and click a button "NewCalloutButton" I would like it to open up a form called "CalloutFormEntry"
I've done this using
Private Sub cmdOpenDetail_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "CalloutFormEntry", , , "CalloutID = " & Me!CalloutID End Sub
However this brings up all the records linked to the calloutID
What I'm after is to open the CalloutFormEntry from the SiteForm in a dataentry kind of format but to carry over the current SiteID based on which site is open on the SiteForm. That way there's no user error logging callouts to incorrect sites.
I have a main form (FRMProspects) with a combo box (ComboCoName) that has a query as it's record source to sort the records displayed in it. It is bound by the CustID (autonumber), but displays the CompanyName.
What I want to do is open a sub form FRMNotes, based on the Company name that is selected in the ComboCoName. So for Company XY, I want to click on the Notes command button to open up all the notes for that company only (filtered). FRMNotes is based on a different table, but TBLProspects and TBLNotes are linked by CustID (one to many).
What code do I need for this? I am treading water with VBA!
I'm working on a database for residents at a care home. I've just started and I want to automate a process where I can click a button and see the contact details of a GP. It's all working but I want it to be that if the resident has no GP it will open a form so you can choose a GP. I have a message box to tell the that the resident has no GP and it takes them to the relevant form but I need it to be based on the correct residents ID and it is not. I have the code running on form load. I have attached a zipped version of the database (it is safe I promise)
I have a form (frmSearch), based on (I think) John Big Bootys code. On it, a search box, which filters results as you type. Works great.
Instead of presenting the search results in a listbox, I wanted it in a subform (sfmSearchresults). Also works great.
Problem was this: I wanted a button on this form, to open another form based on [CustID]. For a listbox, I could use columns(0), but not for a subform. After much trying I got this to work:
Code: Private Sub cmdVisaPren_Click() Dim strWhere As String strWhere = "[CustID] = " & Me.sfmSearchResults.Form.Controls.Item(5) DoCmd.OpenForm "frmAddCust", acNormal, , strWhere, acFormEdit, acWindowNormal End Sub
The part that I don't understand is the Item(5). The subform is based on a query (qrySearch), from tblCustomers. tblCustomers fields is as follows:
Item(0) in strWhere would return Adress1 as [CustID]. Item (1) = Newspaper1, Item(2) = Newspaper2, Item(3) = FirstName, Item(4)=LastName, and (finally) Item(5)=CustID.
I don't get the logic. With listboxes, I could just count columns for columns().
Have attached my database. It's just a test database, with 4 people. The final database will have about 1200 people, and many more fields. Its .accdb (Access 2013). I tried converting to Access 2002-2003, but couldn't get it to work.
I have a continuous form that lists all unapproved invoices. I would like to have a hyperlink at the end of each row that says Review and will open another form that queries the details of the unapproved invoice based on the invoice number in the current row.
After viewing all the threads i got some useful information but just wanted some help as i am not a programmer but can understand logics. There are 2 issues i want to resolve
1. First query is i have a login form and in a table there is username password. Now issue is based on the username person should be able to view things. There would be 6 differrent departments. So i would have six users and 1 id only for viewing. These six users should be able to see there own records either assigned to them or create new query and assign to any other 5 users. Now option is either I create six replicated forms and based on the user login i open user form or switch board. Can there be any option where in a table i store the activities they can do and whereever these guys go the code check in table and enable or disable the view of items for other guys. Users would be accessing forms, reports and they would have option of entering cusotmer information and querying and changing information. The user which has option of viewing reports will only have option of seeing some customized reports.
2. Second query is that these six users would be addressing issues to each other regarding cusotmer issue. In this every response of the case should be stored in a table. i.e. like for customer x user1 said abc on 10th then user2 said cbf on 11th. so this would have history of case what was happeining in the matter.
I dont know how to go about this and if there is a easy solution. I dont want to use access security cause then all the six users would have security file.
Would apreciate your help and till now whatever responses i have seen in other forms they were quite helpful and did help me lot in understanding access.
Thanks to all who would be visiting this thread and taking pain in answering the query.
I am working on a database that tracks products. The products are divided into groups (Bath Salt, Stick Incense, Candle, etc.) and these are store in a table. The products themselves are stored in another table.
When a new scent is created, it can belong to multiple groups ... for instance, Strwberry Vanilla could be a perfume, a bath salt, a candle, stick incense.
When the form is opened, I want to read the contents of the groups table and create a check box for each entry.
I do not really want to use a list/combo box for this task ... would prefer to be able to check in a list of boxes to specify what groups to create entries for when a new product is entered.
Do you have a code that would open a saved file based on the contents of 2 textboxes on my form.
The saved files would be in: C:Documents and Settings100310257Desktop
I have a button on the form, but need a code that would pull up the savedfile using the name in textbox1 and the name in textbox2, like this: textbox1-textbox2. e.g. textbox1 = Novo Group. textbox2 = AA There is a saved file in the path above, Novo Group-AA
I have a database (I've attached it for you). I'd like to set it up so that in the "incentive scheme" form when the field [term 1 allow] is changed and is more than 0 then have the form "permissible explanation" appear with that record so the user can add an explanation, they should not be allowed to leave it empty if the [term 1 allow] is still >0 and then save and return to the "incentive scheme" form for further input.
I have a table with the fields Thermometer_ID (primary key) and CalibrationType (combo box list with the options of InHouse or SendOut)
I want the user to click on a button and have an input box to input the thermometer_id. Then if the CalibrationType is InHouse open form Verification and if it's SendOut open form Thermometers.
What I want to do is set the criteria of a query to the value on a form if the form is open, and set it to a different value if the form is closed. I tried using a function on the OnLoad event of the form to set a variable called IsOpen to 1 if the form is open, and reset that variable to 0 when the form closes, but when I tried using the variable in an IIF statement in the query criteria, I got a "Its too complex" error.
Here's what I really want to do. I have a very complex form with multiple tabs and subforms. The subforms populate based on a query of what is selected and loaded into a textbox control on the first tab of the form. The first tab has a subform that is based on the main table. Rather than recreate that form, I want to copy it and change the rowsource on the first tab to a subset of the main table, and tell the query to use the textbox on the new form so I don't have to go and replicate all the other subforms. Is there a way to do that or am I just screwed?
I have two tables and two separate forms. [ID] is the link between them. (I cannot do a subform in this case).
Form1 displays 3 records
Have control button that goes to Form2 where [id] = NumID (NumID is "long" variable)
Have control button on Form2 to go back to Form1. It needs to go to the same record it came from. I don't want use a where clause (e.g., where [id] = [id]). This works, but the form1 is now filtered. I need all records available in Form1, but I want to go to the record it was on when the button was clicked to go to form1
