Hello,
I was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of how to have a form open to the record it was on when it was closed. I know I've seen how to do this before, but I've spent some time searching and I can't seem to find it again.
Thanks,
Eric

I am tying to create a cmd btn called "Report" that when clicked opens a form [quick report] in dialog window. I have that done easy enough. But what I want is if that form [quick report] is open, and you click the same button "Report" for it to then close the form.

Is there any way i can choose the new form from the menu bar & close the previous form? I've tried to close on deactivate, w/ no luck.

I have a database that has transactions since year 2009. I want the users to only be able to view and edit transactions that were entered in the last 6 days. I was initially able to do this by putting a filter in the Property Sheet section of the form and choosing Yes for Filter on Load.
However, a user was able to discover that by clicking on Clear All Filters, the filter I set was also cleared, thus making them see all the transactions beginning year 2009.
I need to create a census report from the employees we serve and their dependents, by company. I have a union query of the Employees table and Dependents table to put them all on one list, then a form where you can type the name of the company you need, with a button that opens the report. This works great, except for the fact that sometimes we don't need the dependents; if a company has over 100 Full-Time employees, we only need the employees. I've added a check box ([IncDep]) on the form, asking the user if they want to include the dependents, but I don't know how to get this to filter the report. I have a Relationship field on the tables that specifies an employee as a "Subscriber", so I'd like to filter the report where [Relationship] = "Subscriber" but I don't know how to do this. The union query specifies both Employees.Relationship and Dependents.Relationship to the text box [Relationship], but when I do something like
Dim stDocName As String
If Me!IncDep.Value = False Then
stDocName = "Census"
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acViewReport, , "[Relationship]='" & "Subscriber" & "'"
Else
stDocName = "Census"
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acViewReport
End If
I have a form that changes a part number. When a user changes the part number and clicks on save a yesno dialog pops up tells them what has been changed and askes the user if they want to document what the prior part number was. I have a table that contains 3 feilds, the key, partnumber, and priorpartnumber. I want to open and add a new record to this table based on the info that is on the form. Can I do this in the code and if so can someone give a good example or link to a good example?
Thanks for the help.
Hello.
Is it possible to close all open reports from one button on a form?
The form is a popup that appears if there are no records in a report. When the popup appears, and the user clicks OK, it is running a macro that closes the popup form and then the report. I would like to use this popup form for a number of reports, so obviously the macro cannot be used as it is only for one report.
Hope this makes sense and can anyone help?
Many Thanks.
Frank.
I'm trying to find out what's the best (or good ways) to open and close a database (*.mdb) in ASP without
worrying about it staying open. The website stops running (page not displayed) after it has been visited several times
I think, or it's happening when I'm creating new scripts I made which crash several times during debugging. Not
sure what's causing it.
Here's how the db connections work. I'm basically using (includes) to do lots of this..
every web page that requires the DB, I do this format...
(includefile: open database)
(includefile: create constants/variables)
(includefile: load functions used)
- the html page, which access functions when needed -
(includefile: close database)
the includefile that holds all the function scripts does not open or close the db at all but only the recordsets
semi-example function
(function)
rs.open "", cn <--- the cn was opened in the database script
- blah = the stuff -
rs.close
(end function)
Is this a good way to work with the database? I'm using access. Yes, i know sql servers are better, but I was told that
since I have only access, I want to minimize the number of connections, so I open the database once during the page
being opened, and close at the end of the page.
Like I say, the problem is, the site works great for a while (no real visitors yet as it's new), but it suddenly says
"page not displayed" after a while. NORMALLY this happens when I'm making new functions/webpages and did the coding
wrong while the database is still open. I'm thinking it's crashing because there were too many errors during the database
being open.
PLEASE HELP!
BTW, is it possible to just run a script that finds ALL the open connections after a crash and close them?
Code to close all open objects?
Using just DoCmd.Close only closes the active object. I have been specifying everything individually but this is not practical as my database grows.
I need to find a way to close a file (spreadsheet) if it was left open by a user before my scheduled macros need to delete and remake that file to update it. Is there a way to do this in Access? I've been looking for scripts everywhere... Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Rick.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a command line argument to open AND close a db? I am running a schedule task to open a db which has an autoexec macro but I don't want the db to stay open after running the macro. Or is there a close db function in a macro? I see close form but not db.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to run code to see if a query is open? Then if the query is open, program the database to close it and re-run it?
I have a query that is based on a field on my form. It runs fine the first time. However, if the user leaves the query open and goes back to the form, makes a new selection, and clicks the button to open the query, the query doesn't refresh. The user either has to close the query and re-run it or press the Refresh All button. I need a way for the query to refresh automatically if it is open already or not. The only other alternative I can think of is to program the database to close the query and re-open it. I tried using QueryName.Requery and QueryName.Refresh but in both cases, it tells me that an object is required and I don't know what it wants. I also tried setting the query definitions using VB, but the query is apparently too long because no matter what I do, I can't get it on one line and Access doesn't seem to like it if the query takes up two lines.
I have a query which I have connected to an excel worksheet. The query displays as a table in excel. Recently I've decided to reorganise the data that goes into the query, however the query itself hasn't changed, there's a chain of queries all feeding data into each other to arrive at this final query, and it's further up the chain that I did the reorganising.
Now when I try to open the workbook, I get this error (the workbook is set to refresh data whenever it is opened)The query did not run, or the database table could not be opened.Check the database server or contact your database administrator. Make sure the external database is available and hasn't been moved or reorganised, then try the operation again.
If I try to edit the data connection or create a new connection, the query I've been using also no longer appears in the list of queries and tables I can get data from.The problem is, this wasn't the sort of reorganisation that I could do incrementally and then see what specifically caused the connection to fail. The query was out of action altogether until I'd finished the reorganising. So it's a bit complicated and I don't know what kind of things could cause a query not to be available to make a connection with Excel.
I am able to see from the list of queries I can connect to where the first query in the chain comes that I can't connect to. The only thing about this particular query worth mentioning is that it uses the Nz() function (it adds together sales figures by month from a list of sales, and in months where there are no sales, there is no data, hence null, when logically I want it to be zero, hence the use of the function).
I'm in the process of creating a database in Access 2010 that has two front ends, basically. What I want to be able to do is lock out one of those front ends for a specific period of time every day.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a split form that's like a list of pending tasks. The data source is a linked SharePoint 2013 list where users submit requests. The user takes the information from each record and performs an action. When it is done, the user presses a button and the task status changes from "Pending" to "Processed". The form record source is based on a query that finds only records with a status of "Pending" so when the user changes the status of the task, it is removed from the list. It works fine except when there is only one task left in the work list. If the user processes the last task, the form refreshes and it goes to a new empty record and I get an error message that says I must enter a value into one of the required fields. I tried making the field non-required but it just creates an empty record in the table.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI tried all sorts of permutations of the requery command but apparently I'm too dense to figure it out.

I am using the method from allen browne [URL] .... to open a form and add it to a collection and when removing it it closes. actually, usually it does work so but i have now a form which does not close until i am hitting the reset button in VBE , is there something i could check why it's not functioning as desired ?
Just to add, this form has a subForm as well (might be the cause ?)
I have a timer form which closes the database after a period of time with DoCmd.Quit. Another form is open at this point but if a user has left it in the middle of editing it I want to be able to save the record in the other form and close it before the timer form closes the database.
What VBA do I need in the timer form to save the record and close the other form before DoCmd.Quit? Just to be clear the code is...
Private Sub Form_Timer()
On Error Resume Next
Me.Tag = Val(Me.Tag) - (Me.TimerInterval / 1000)
Me.Caption = "The database will exit in " & Me.Tag & " seconds"
If Val(Me.Tag) <= 0 Then
[code]...
When the user clicks to close the form the Before Update event runs, and has the following code to check that all the required fields are completed:
If IsNull(Me.ToxReceived) Then
stdresponse = (MsgBox("You must enter the toxicology received date before continuing." & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & _
"Do you want to do that now? Click YES to return to complete the form, click NO to undo the record", vbYesNo, "Missing Data"))
If stdresponse = vbYes Then
Me.ToxReceived.SetFocus
Else
Cancel = True
Me.Undo
Exit Sub
End If
End If
If the user clicks no, and the record is undone, how do I get the close form event to still continue?

i put a button that run the command "docmd.close" but i found when i click it it close the form but with saving all data in field in the table, but this button should cancel record insertion, i hope i can find the answer here.
Thank you

I have a form that I want only to be opened from another form (i.e. the user presses a button from form1 and form2 is magically displayed).
My solution: In form2, I check to see if form1 is open in "use" mode. If not, I display a message and close form2.
The problem: The close code (docmd.close) is at the beginning of Form_Current. Apparently, Form_Current doesn't like to be interrupted. I receive a run-time error 2585 (This action can't be carried out while processing a form or report event).
Ok, so, umm, how exactly am I supposed to close the form? I tried the check during Form_Load instead, using the cancel variable instead of the docmd.close. However, I don't think this code got executed. It's almost like the form was already loaded or the Form_Load occurs after Form_Current (In my handy chart here, it says that Form_Current occurs when a form containing data is first opened and when you move to a different record.. so, I suppose it is possible).
Any thoughts?
I'm trying to close one form by using a button on another. This is my code:
DoCmd.Close acForm, frmSimCount
It dosen't work but comes up with an error:
Run-time errer '2493'
This action requires an object name.
I thought that was the name of the form, which is frmSimCount, could someone put me in the right direction please.
