Pass A Set Of Current Records In A Form To A Query
Feb 15, 2007
I have a query set up. I need to pass a set of current records ( as I select them in a drop-down menu) in a form to the query as parameters. How would I do it with or without VB? Thanks !
EDIT: Forgot to mention that all combo boxes are bound so they are not customized dialog-boxes which are unbound
I am struggling with what seems like should be a straightforward task. Unexpectedly however it has become an infuriatingly difficult one (no doubt due to my complete novice status).
I have a very basic d/base (3 tables) that I have been searching using basic SQL queries. I want to create a simple 'search' form that produces the results of my various queries without the need to work in SQL. Enter one or more search criteria, hit ENTER, results presented in datasheet perhaps?
Thought this would have been easy but I've had no luck. Can you please explain how I can pass a parameter from a form to a query?
I am trying to enter dates in a form that calls a report that invokes a query that uses the dates. It has been a less then satisfying experience. I am getting a Run-Time error 3122. Is it possible and I need to work on syntax or do I need to think of another way? BTW how do I lookup the Run-Time errors? Thanks for helping an old guy learn new tricks. Jim
Hi there. What I'm attempting to do is pass multiple values from a multiple selection list box as criteria for an Append Query. Is there any way to do this? The DB keeps track of Real Estate boards and the forms that they use, I would like to be able to select all the boards in a given state/province, but have the ability to deselect some within that province if I don't need them in the query (this is the criteria i'm trying to pass). I don't need to use a list box, any control that would allow me to pass multiple values would be great. Anyone able to help? Thanks very much.
Is it possible to pass a variable to a form when a checkbox is clicked? I have 8 tabs, each of which has a checkbox. When a checkbox is clicked, I would like it to display 1 form but that form should display different data each time by either running a SQL query with specific variables passed to it or by running a different SQL query.
I have a routine that exports the results of a query to an Excel file. Is it possible to input the formula into the query so that the Excel values calculate?
This is the formula I am trying to pass to the "AZ" column of the Data tab
I have several forms in a navigation form. On all the forms, the little search bar at the bottom shows # of 103 records. On my navigation form it shows 1 of 1 and won't allow me to search.It would seem that the search bar is only looking at the current form and not at the records.
I'm trying to create a query that supplies a form with data. I want to pass a TempVar to the query that is selected a from previously opened form.The TempVar is setting correctly and I can see if this if I place a textbox (NewCID) on the form showing the TempVar. The problem I have is displaying on the records according to that TempVar. If I set the query manually, i.e. "|Test|" then records are displayed but if I use the TempVar, which also displays |Test| then no records are brought back.
think it's something do with the vertical bar and that fact the field I'm searching on is a memo field, both of which I've no control over. I also have to use the Like statement because of this.Here's the query that works...
SELECT * FROM dbo_ASSETS WHERE ASSET_CID Like "|Test|"
and the one that I want to use, that doesn't...
SELECT * FROM dbo_ASSETS WHERE ASSET_CID Like [TempVars]![tmpvarCID]
I've even tried referring to the textbox instead of the TempVar, i.e.
SELECT * FROM dbo_ASSETS WHERE ASSET_CID Like [Forms]![AssetsCID]![NewCID]
When opened it displays all records (no selection yet).
I put would like to put 2 buttons to filter records (Male/Female).
I'm thinking of 2 possible options:
1-on click run a script that will close current form, then reopen it with selection criteria 2-directly apply a filter on the current form that would automatically refresh itself with the right records
Another (heavy, inelegant?) solution would be to create duplicates of this form. they would be loaded from separate queries that select the right records in either choice.
I have a continuous form based on a 'start date' - 'end date' query. I would like to be able to select certain records from this form to print.
I have added a 'print' field and have created a new query including this parameter which a report can be based on but when i run this report I am, of course, asked for the original 'start date' and 'end date' again.
Is there any way of linking the command button to only the records on the current form?
I have created a new form with a few tabs, I need to let the value's of the last record be carry to a new record, but it must only show when I press the first letter on the new record, I did rerad about this, but only find it for normal forms. Did try to get it to work, but it dows not work on tabs form
I have a query pulling data from two other queries (qry_Reports and qry_Surveys). Clients may have more than one ReportID, but only one ClientID. I need to query for only the most current ReportID (which is the larger value) for each client to find the surveys for the most recent report. How can I query for only the most recent report for each client based on the highest value of the ReportID per ClientID?
I am trying to query my records by the current records selected date then send the results in the body of an email on click. I believe I am close but I think there is a problem with the date format because I am getting 3421 Data type conversion error. Here is what I have:
Code:
Private Sub eMail_Click() On Error GoTo EH Dim dbExceptions As Database Dim rstExceptions As Recordset Dim dbDate As Database Dim rstDate As Recordset
What I really need is for when the form opens, it looks at todays date, then matches current user and then goes to that record for today, if no current user there, then will goto new record..
i know, sounds complicated, and probably is really easy, but my heads not with it today, as about to get drunk as its my 40th, and got people ringing and texting and still trying to get this done....
I've included a copy of this database, named Timecards..
Good afternoon, I have a form with a subform and in the first txtbox of the subform in the GotFocus event I have a little procedure which checks the txtboxs on the parent to make sure that there is data in all four of the txtboxes. This works great the first time and it pops up a msgbox and it even setsfocus on the txtbox with no data in it, but if I tab into the subform a second time and there still is no data in one of the txtboxs on the parent form, nothing happens, no message and no setting focus on the txtbox with no data in it. Does anyone know of a way to get this procedure to re-set everytime a user tries to enter the subform? Thank you in advance to anyone offering and ideas and suggestions.
Hi i am having problem creating a query that will pull the price of a property into the price field on to a booking order form depending on the values of the start date and property number enter onto the same form. i have a two tables property price and booking order.
Fields in the property price are property price no, property no, start date, end date and price.
Fields in the booking order table are booking no, property no, start date, end date, cost, no of days, total cost.
When in the booking order form i need the query to get the price from the property price table matching on the property no i've selected on the booking order form and also the start date i've entered on the booking order form needs to be between the start and end date fields in the property price table.
This is the query i have created but doesn't work SELECT [Property Price].Price FROM [booking order] INNER JOIN [Property Price] ON [booking order].[Property No] = [Property Price].[Property No] WHERE ((([forms]![booking order subform]![start date]) Between [property price].[start date] And [property price].[end date]) AND (([Property Price].[Property No])=[forms]![booking order subform]![property no]));
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 want to have Access run a query, open a report, and print the report based on the ID number of the form that I have open. Is this possible?
The situation would be, I have a form that uses the the primary key as a record number. After I enter the data into the form, with the form open I want to add a button to open and print a report of the current record number.
I would like to copy one control, then close this form, open concrete form and pass value to control.
My code is
Private Sub Menu_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "frmZleceniaMarzenaNawigacjaPD" Forms!frmZleceniaMarzenaNawigacjaPD.Form!Imie = Me.Imie Forms!frmZleceniaMarzenaNawigacjaPD.Form!Imie.SetFocus DoCmd.Close acForm, Me.name End Sub
The problem is, still opens the previous form, not form "frmZlecenia"
e.g If I open form x then from this form I open my modal form "frmZlecenia" and then I will click "menu" button - now form "x" is open :/, but should be "frmZleceniaMarzenaNawigacjaPD"
There is some way to open concrete form from modal form?
So I have 2 forms, an Edit Lot Form, and an Add Run Form. Each lot will contain several runs. What I want to do is be able to add a run associated with the specific lot by pressing a button "Add Run" in the lower right corner of the edit lot form (see attached images). So the information for the lot will carry over to the run form and autofill the fields pertaining to the Lot in that form.
I'm trying to create a PTQ and just cant seem to find the source table.
The name of the source table is PRM1_ORG_MTRX3_N
If I write my query like this, I get an error code that states username.PRM1_ORG_MTRX3_N is an undefined name. It adds my userid to the beginning of the table name.
Then I rewrote the query like this, and I got and error code that said PRM1.ORG_MTRX3_N is an undefined name. Does anyone know what else I can try here to get this query going? Thanks
Can you do a pass through Query to a pivot table when your query has parameters? I'm reading like you can't, but nothing has been said concretely yet. When I do it, it gives me an error "Trouble Obtaining Data" when I try and set the layout.
I have a database that I am creating to enter risks and controls in for business auditing. I am stuck with a problem related to passing a value from one form to another. The general idea behind the database is this: A business enters its risks into a risk form and later enters its controls in the controls form. These are separate forms because the risk and controls may be entered at different times by different auditors. An example of what this looks like is this:
Risk Real estate owned by the company may be overvalued on the companys balance sheet.
Control Once every two years, the company obtains an independent appraisal of the propertys value.
A risk may have more than one control mapped (assigned) to it. A control may be assigned to more than one risk.Now that we know what the end result looks like, here is my problem.
Currently, I use a form to display the risk. This form has a subform on it which displays the control. I use a combo box on the subform to choose the controls ID reference number. When chosen, the control appears in the subform. This form then populates a join table which now contains the foreign key identifiers of both the risk and the control or controls. The problem is that the controls are wordy and stored in memo fields, so the user has to choose the controls identifier in the combo box, which is usually not know to the user. So, I have a button on the form the user can select and a report of all controls pops up so the user can scroll through and find the desired control and get its reference ID. They then close the pop up report and choose the reference ID in the combo box.
What I would like to do is to have the pop-up report appear as a form and each control had a checkbox next to it. Then the user could just check the box for the control they wanted. No more selecting reference IDs from the combo box.
I have created a simple query that is used as the record source of one of my forms. I want to pass the query a different criterion each time the form is opened.
Any suggestion/example on who to do that will be very much appreciated.
