Open Specific Form From Combo Box
Nov 12, 2005I have a form with a subform which has a lookup table (combo box) as a field. I want to be able, when I select a certain item in the lookup to have it automatically open a form. e.g. A field called insurance class - I select motor, I want the motor details form to open.

Open Form On Two Combo Box Values
Sep 17, 2006Hi I've tried to find an answer to this but having no luck.
I have a form that has two combo boxes the first box looks up the year from the project table and the second box the project number. I want to open the project details that correspondes to these two input values within the combo boxes by pressing a command box.
I've tried the following but just get a syntax error:
Private Sub cmdOpenJobDetails_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdOpenJobDetails_Click
Dim strDocName As String
Dim strYear As String
Dim strJobno As String
Dim strFilter As String
strYear = Me.cmbYear.Value
strJobno = Me.cmbJobno.Value
strFilter = "Select [tblProjects].[intprojectyear], [tblProjects.[intprojectjobno] FROM [tblProjects]" & _
"WHERE [intprojectyear] = & strYear And [intprojectjobno] & strJobno"
strDocName = "frmProjectDetails"
DoCmd.OpenForm strDocName, , , strFilter
Exit_cmdOpenJobDetails_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdOpenJobDetails_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdOpenJobDetails_Click
End Sub
Forms :: Open Form From Combo Box
Jun 3, 2014Im using the below code to open a from depending on what option is selected on a combobox.
Code:
Private Sub DirectPCombo_Click()
Dim cboVal As String
Dim stDocName As String
cboVal = Me.DirectPCombo.Value
Select Case cboVal
Case "One"
[code]....
If you select the first item [One] it will open the correct form [TestOne]. But when you select any of the others an error comes up saying that the name is no a form. So I added
Code:
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName
But the no items would select.I know If split the reports form the forms and make two comboboxes it would work, but it would be better it both could be in the same combobox.
Open Subform Based On Form With Combo Box
Oct 27, 2005I 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!
Combo Box Selection To Determine Which Form To Open
Jul 13, 2005Hi don't know if I'm trying to do something that can't be done but I'll give it a try
I have a combo box which selects a type of incident e.g. report, SIF, Phone call etc
and dependent on what is selected I would like to get access to automatically select which form to open so if report is open when the command button is clicked then the report form would be opened, when SIF is selected the SIF form would be opened etc...
How do I go about this.. I have only ever wrote code in excel, so can I have step by step if it involves code (which I guess it does) including where to put the code and even how to go about it
Thanks in advance to all

Open Relevant Form Based On 2 Combo Boxes?
Apr 6, 2006Hey guys, I'm not sure if this is possible, and it is the most challenging thing that I have tried to implement into my database to date.
What I have is a booking form which allows you to Add Bookings for camera kits.
When a customer comes in and would like to book a kit, the form must be filled in with the relevant details, I have 2 combo boxes on this form.
The first is the Kit selection, there are 5 camera kits.
The second is an option to book the full kit out, or just components.
So here's the tricky part...
When the first combo box selection is made (eg. Kit 3) I need the Kit3 table to be active.
Then, when the user selects "Components" from the second combo box, I need a form to open up based on both of the above.
So a form based on tblKit3 would be opened and the user can manually select the components that they require to be booked out.
Any help at all would be appreciated.

this field will always have either
"CASH" or "ACCT"

i want a form that will allow my user to choose which report to look at..
lets call it form1.. i want to place a combo on my form (combo1) that has the values..
CASH

What I have is a table that lists all of the files that have been saved to pdf. There is a column in that table that lists the exact path and file name.

I need to know if there is VB code that will use that specific file name listed in the combo box and open (to view) the pdf file on the server.

Update Combo Box While Record Open
Sep 20, 2005I've got a combo box on my main form which lists different contractors. I've also created a command button on the main form which opens another form and allows the user to add another contractor to the contractor table which populates the contractor combo box on my main form.
However, when the user has added a new contractor and closed this form, this new contractor doesn't show up in the combo box until the main form is closed and reopened.
Is there a way to update the main form without closing and reopening it so that it shows the new contractor in the combo box?
Thanks in advance!
