Open Form With Data In Field
Jul 4, 2006
I have tried searching, but have not foud anything that quite fits the bill for this.
I would like to add some code to my event procedure for opening my form so that when it opens a field has a value entered in it and then the record is saved.
My form name is frmCompanyClients based on tblCompanyClients and the field is ClientType (text box)
I don't want to use a default value as I want to change what goes into that field depending on user input on the Front Form.
I need to save the record as soon as that is done so that a Client_ID number is generated and my subforms can then be properly associated via the Client_ID field. I was having problems with unassociated records, and found out that it was because I was entering data into the subforms first and not any of the parent form's fields and so because no Client_ID was generated I was getting the lost records.
Thanks
Nicolas

I am in the process of making some changes to an inherited database. One of the things I need to do is to fix an issue with the reports. The reports have a field which asks for the data range (from xx/xx/xx to xx/xx/xx) as soon as the report is opened, but then the query that fills that report also asks for the same data range so you end up entering it twice.
What do I need to do to enter the data range only once and have it show up on the report and also be used on the query?

I have a main form[frmResearchNotes] with combo box controls that filters a query populating [subfrmNotelist] containing several records from the filtered query. From there, I double click on a field within one of the remaining records, [CompanyName] for example, and it opens the new form[frmNoteDetail]. The problem is that second form is not displaying that selected record. The second form's record source has been set to the same query so when it loads, it displays the same info but it's displaying the 1st record out of the entire filtered list, not the record I clicked on in that list.
I figured I could use the strWhere function to copy the record I selected in the event procedure and then open the new form with those details. Not sure how to actually do this with VBA or if it's even the correct approach.

I want to open a form so it is blank.
I have looked through old posts, and the only way I can see to do it is using:
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
However, this is no good for me, as I dont want to allow data entry AND I have default values for one of the fields.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks.

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
Code:
[Staffcontact]![Rest Name]=[Forms]![MainForm]![RestaurantName]
But, it does not work .

Hi All,
I should know how to do this but my brain has gone blank.
I have a form "frmMainClient" which has a field "account_no".
On the main form "frmMainClient" I have a command button which opens a pop up form ""frmJobNew" where I can enter a new job record. The "frmJobNew" form has a field "account_no".
I am trying to auto fill the "account_no" field with the data from the "frmMainClient" - "account_no" field and store the passed data when the record is saved.
I can pass the data using "=forms![frmMainClient]![account_no] in the "account_no" field on the "frmJobNew" but when I save the record the data is not saved.
Can anyone offer help, please
Many thanks.

how to write code to open a second form on the click of a button on the first form and specifically to continue on the record set I am focusing on.
I have 2 tables. The first is tblAccount (fields: AccountID [the PK]; AccountHolder) and the 2nd is tblUser (fields: UserID [the PK]; UserName; AccountID). They are linked so that one account can have multiple users. Each has a respective form; frmAccount and frmUser.
My goal is that once the AccountHolder field has been populated in frmAccount I can click a button to open frmUser with the AccountID field already showing in the form header.
I have managed to do something similar by selecting from a combo box before but I am having trouble making this work after directly populating the AccountHolder field and using an open Form button.

So, I've got a frmCustomer and want to link the form to frmNewWorkOrder using a button.
More precisely when I choose/scroll to a customer and click the button "New work order" to autofill data from selected client from frmCustomerto frmNewWorkOrder (First and Last name, telephone number and client ID).

I have a form called frmStartTimeEntry where a user inputs data using a barcode scanner. In this form there is a field called Part_No where after a value is inserted, I'd like the form to check if table_lines_per_part includes this part. If not found, then I'd like the form to open another form called frmLinesPerPart where the form would pull the same Part_No inserted in the previous form to fill in the Part_No field (which is hidden) and then the user would type in a qty for the LinesPerOrder. A user would then click a button btnOk to append this new record to table_lines_per_part and be returned to the frmStartTimeEntry to continue filling out the rest of the form.
This is the idea I have but I don't know how to code the part where the form checks after update if the part_no exists in the other table, nor how to capture the part_no to the other form and then append both the part_no and the lines per part to the other table.

Is there any possibilities to open form after INSERT INTO? I think Ms Access can't fast refresh data in the table after that, so form opens up clean:/
Code:
...
strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblZlecenia (id_zlecenia_info, DataPrzyjecia) VALUES ('" & ostateczne & "', Date())"
CurrentDb.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError
DoCmd.OpenForm "Formularz2", WhereCondition:="ID_Zlecenia=" & ostateczne

I have a form and this form shows some values from one table. One of the fields named as Key. I want to open another form and show the record that has the same value as Key.
I am able to make this with filter but the form opens and when the user navigates the record, it creates a duplicate value in related table.
I want to open form and find specific data to display and then stop at this record.

I am currently creating a database in a hierarchical system that is to be used by multiple users to enter information specific to them. The tables are arranged like this:
Owners
Modules
Tasks
Highlights
Theses are connected using primary ID's and Particular Entries in the next table so they form a hierarchy - when you expand owners it brings up a list of Modules attached to that owner, then expand each module and it brings up a list of tasks associated with that module, expand the task and it brings up a list of highlights associated with that task. This is all very straightforward of course but what I would like to do is create forms that basically match so that the users can navigate from their name, through their modules and tasks and then add highlights to each task.
For this I have been using continuous forms to list all the different entries and inserting a button in each entry that I would like to link to the next form and find the specific data, however when I try to do this the button always without fail will just return all the entries from the form rather than the specific ones requested. I set up the button using the wizard and select 'open form and find specific data' and then select two entries that are identical on each form. I have trawled the internet quite a bit to try and find why this is happening and have inserted various bits of code etc into the embedded macro in an attempt to make it work but to no avail.
I wonder if there is something I need to activate on the form that the button connects to aswel or if I need to connect these forms using the relationship that I used to connect the tables (I am still using a unique identifier).If I connect to a single form it will display the first entry on the list (and I can cycle through them all) on a continuous form it will display all entries starting with the first.I would like it to display all entries for the selected record on the form.

Test findings showed that when I open a form the data does not update. I added a refresh action after the openform action. If I want to open three forms via the macro, do I need three refresh actions, one after each openform action, or simply a single refresh action that would apply to all three forms.
Scenario 1:OpenForm1, Refresh, OpenForm2 Refresh, OpenForm3, Refresh
Scenario 2:OpenForm1, OpenForm2, OpenForm3, Refresh

I am trying to resolve an issue of being able to use a query from many different forms where the query is dependent on the date selected in the current open form. Right now it calls the function getDate() which works fine. Unfortunatly the function is called before the form is fully loaded and the control I want to pass has no value/doesn't exist yet and I get a
"Runtime error 13 Type-Mismatch"
Here is the function code:
Function getDate() As String
If fIsLoaded("F_SupplierData") Then
getDate = Form_F_SupplierData.txtDate
Else
getDate = "01/01/1901"
End If
End Function
Function fIsLoaded(ByVal strFormName As String) As Integer
'Returns a 0 if form is not open or a -1 if Open
If SysCmd(acSysCmdGetObjectState, acForm, strFormName) <> 0 Then
If Forms(strFormName).CurrentView <> 0 Then
fIsLoaded = True
End If
End If
End Function
Is there a way to detect the state of the text field itself (if it is open, closed, dirty)? Or if anyone has a better way to tie a query to multiple forms?

I have a form with numerous fields on it, with the one I'm concerned about being a date field.
I want a different form to open automatically if the above date field is in the past (this will act as a warning to the user).
I've created the warning form as a pop-up view but just want to know the best way to have it open automatically.
Can this be done via a macro in the OnOpen Property (or maybe OnLoad) or will this have to written in vba.

I have a subform in which I want to put in a Command Button to open another form.
I used the wizard as per normal, but when you come to matching specific data fields, there is nothing in my left hand column of the sub form. I have checked the record source property and it is bound to the correct table.
I have read that this is an issue with Access 2007? Is this the case or am I missing something obvious here?
