Passing Values To A Form (calendar)

Jan 9, 2008

Hi All,

Thanks to "Beginning Access97 VBA Programming" by R. Smith & D. Sussman, I was able to implement the use of a calendar form to allow a client to select a date, rather than keying one in. And here I thought I was done with the problem....Wrong !!! The calendar form only works if existing records already have a date(shortdate) associated with the record.

But when I try to create a new record, the date field is "null" and I can't figure out how to pass a date value to the calendar control even though it's receiving a null. I get this "type mismatch" error I've bumped into the part of the code that was supplied via the book where the "property set datecontrol (Byval ctldate as Control) is set, but I can't figure out
how to deal with this incoming "null" value from the newly created record.

Can anyone help? I'll check in later on tonight if anyone is needing part of the code as reference to what I'm trying to accomplish.

Thanks so much.......CementCarver

Passing Values From Subform To New Form

Mar 21, 2006

Hi

I got a little problem wich i'm trying to solve for several days now.
My situation is like this.
I got a form called "Frm_File_List" and in there a subform "Frm_List_Sub" as in a datasheet. In here there are several records.
Im trying that when u double click on the record that a new form "Frm_View_file" will be opened, but according the record I selected in the subform. So when I doubleclick on ID 7 it opens the form with record matching ID 7.

I tried in vba the following

Private Sub Form_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "Frm_View_File", , , "Files_ID = Forms!Frm_List_File!Frm_List_Sub.Form!Txt_Files_ID "
End Sub

But when I double click on the record it gives me this popup screen asking for the ID. When I fill in this manually then it does give me the wanted record in the form. But how do I get his ID passed automaticly?

Thanks in advance

Passing Values On Form To Union Query

Oct 20, 2005

I'm currently working on a database which provides copier and postage activity in my department, using Access. I'm trying to debug a query which is called by a form that accepts input for a particular month and year. Whenever the OK button is clicked, it gives a message "The Microsoft Jet database engine does not recognize 'Combination Query' as a valid field name or expression."

"Combination Query" is a union query which calls two intermediate queries, each of which in turn calls a base query. Only one, the query responsible for gathering copier activity, is a crosstab query.

The problem I believe lies in either or both of the base queries only when the form is used. When I use a regular parameter query, I receive no error messages.

Here is the SQL code I used for each:

Query 1: Copier Activity
Code:PARAMETERS [Forms]![frmObtainMonthlyInfo]![cmbMonth] Long, [Forms]![frmObtainMonthlyInfo]![cmbYear] Long;TRANSFORM Sum([big table].Copies) AS SumOfCopiesSELECT [big table].[Copy Code], [User codes].Alias, Sum([big table].Copies) AS [Total Of Copies]FROM [User codes] INNER JOIN [big table] ON [User codes].[Copy Code] = [big table].[Copy Code]WHERE (((DatePart("m",[big table].[Time]))=[Forms]![frmObtainMonthlyInfo]![cmbMonth]) AND ((DatePart("yyyy",[big table].[Time]))=[Forms]![frmObtainMonthlyInfo]![cmbYear]))GROUP BY [big table].[Copy Code], [User codes].AliasPIVOT [big table].[Copier Location];

Query 2: Postage Activity
Code:PARAMETERS [Forms]![frmObtainMonthlyInfo]![cmbMonth] Long, [Forms]![frmObtainMonthlyInfo]![cmbYear] Long;SELECT [big Postage Activity].sAcctNum AS Account, Sum(Nz(cBaseRate*lNumPieces,0)+Nz((cRegisteredFee+ cCertifiedFee+cReturnRecFee+cReturnRecMerchFee+cSp ecDeliveryFee+cSpecHandlingFee+cRestrictedDelvFee+ cCallTagFee+cPODFee+cHazMatFee+cSatDeliveryFee+cAO DFee+cCourierPickupFee+cOversizeFee+cShipNotificat ionFee+cDelvConfirmFee+cSignatureConfirmFee+cPALFe e+cResidualShapeSurcharge)*lNumPieces,0)) AS TotalFROM [big Postage Activity]WHERE (((DatePart("m",[big Postage Activity].[sSysDate]))=[Forms]![frmObtainMonthlyInfo]![cmbMonth]) AND ((DatePart("yyyy",[big Postage Activity].[sSysDate]))=[Forms]![frmObtainMonthlyInfo]![cmbYear]))GROUP BY [big Postage Activity].sAcctNum;

I edited this to make it look similar to a recommendation posted on another forum, but sometimes I would get the message "The Microsoft Jet database engine does not recognize '[Forms]![frmObtainMonthlyInfo]![cmbMonth]' as a valid field name or expression."

I also included PARAMETERS [Forms]![frmObtainMonthlyInfo]![cmbMonth] Long, [Forms]![frmObtainMonthlyInfo]![cmbYear] Long; as the first line in the intermediate tables, but I still receive the same error message.

I'm wondering if there was something I overlooked or if there was a way around this. I can post the other queries if you need those. Many thanks in advance for your help.

Forms :: Passing All Field Values From One Form To Another

May 28, 2015

I have "LossForm" to record loss of inventory items due to damage, theft, etc. It has "Loss Subform" for input of multiple items. The row has a calculated field "TotalLoss" (from qty * itemcost). The footer of subform has unbound text field =Sum(nz([TotalLoss])). This all works fine. The problem I have is that I need to pass the total to another form. I want to have a pop-up form to use some of the field values from the Loss form. I have been able to pass all of the field values except for the TotalLoss.

LossForm Close Event: "DoCmd.OpenForm "Journal", , , , acFormAdd, , Me.LossID & ";" & Me.LossDate

pop up form:
Set frmPrevious = Screen.ActiveForm
Me.TransactionID = frmPrevious.LossID
Me.EntryType = "Loss"
Me.Date = frmPrevious.LossDate
{ Me.Amount = frmPrevious.TotalLoss doesn't work }
DoCmd.Save
End Sub

I also tried to setup a global, class, and module variable but keep getting error message of undefined variable.

Forms :: Creating A New Record From Another Form And Passing Values?

May 20, 2014

Have a form that contains fields AssociatedProject, AssociatedRelease and then the user hits a button to create a new record and a new form opens to display this newly created record which sets the fields and also sets a field called Type. There is no issue with setting the field values and the new record is created. However, when the form opens to display the record it displays another record instead (usually the one before it). I think it could be related to the fact that the db resides on a shared drive which periodically has slow connectivity. However, I'm looking for a solution, perhaps modifying the code?

Here's the code:

Private Sub Command17_Click()
Dim strSQL As String
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim ctl As Control
Dim varItem As Variant
On Error GoTo Err_Command17_Click
Set db = CurrentDb()
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("Tbl_Main", dbOpenDynaset, dbAppendOnly)

[code]....

Forms :: Input Information - Passing Values To Form

Jan 30, 2014

I have a database of experimental products. The database allows test technicians to input test information as well as product information (obviously in separate tables). Therefore before a tech logs test information, they have to first make sure the test product is in the database. They can do this by looking up the products that are in the database, and if the current one isn't they can input its information. In the lookup section you can also click on an individual product and lookup its test history.

What I am looking to do is add a button in the product information screen that allows the tech to open the test information input form with the test product information already loaded into the form. The product information portion of the test input form, is two combo boxes, one indicates the test products group and the other is the product number.

Looking up information on Google looks like i might need to use the OpenArgs function, however I have never used that before.

Forms :: Passing Values From One Form To A New Record In Another Form

Oct 25, 2013

Have one form that contains values AssociatedProject and AssociatedRelease that need to be passed onto another form that opens with a new record. Have tried different variations based on what I read here and couldn't get them to work.

Initial form - frm_ViewList contains the values that I need to pass on and has a "Add" button to bring up the new form that also creates a new record. The add button contains the following:

Dim stDocName As String
MyAssociatedProject = Me.AssociatedProject
MyAssociatedRelease = Me.AssociatedRelease
stDocName = "Frm:ManageQuestionsAnswersProc"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, acNormal
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec

Then in the second form Frm:ManageQuestionsAnswersProc the following code is contained in the Before Insert:

Me.AssociatedProject = MyAssociatedProject
Me.AssociatedRelease = MyAssociatedRelease

Passing Values

Apr 25, 2005

I need to find a way of passing a value from an Access form to an .asp page...

Page1.asp is viewable on the web and asks a user for a code and password - these are checked against a database and when a match is found page2.asp is opened showing values based on SQL views which match the criteria from page1.asp.

What I want to do is be able to open page2.asp from a button in Access - the button should therefore force the opening of page2.asp in a web browser and pass to it the values from that record on the database (code and password).

What code would sit on the button to get it to do this?

Passing Values Between Forms Using Vba

Aug 7, 2005

I have one dialog form which can receive values from multiple forms.
For each form i can build a popup dialog version but that's to much time in administration later on.

The best thing is if i Can declare a variable from the source form and pass it to the target control box in the dialog form.
I tried many ways but currently it's not working.

Maybe you've got example code for me.

Passing Values Between Forms

Nov 25, 2006

Ok this is probably easy for you guys but my knowledge of access is limited.

I have two forms - Find Job and Notes
On the Find Job form I have a text box called 'Job No' and a combo box called 'Status' that I have coded to open Notes if certain conditions are met. The code is

Private Sub Status_AfterUpdate()
If Status.Value = "WIP - Snagged" Or Status.Value = "WIP - Suspended" Then
DoCmd.OpenForm "Notes", , , acFormAdd
End If

What I need is to be able to pass the value of the 'Job no' text box on the Find Job form to the 'Job No' text box on the Notes form.

Many thanks in advance

Passing Values From Combo Box

Sep 23, 2004

I am having trouble getting information from a combo box to pass the data through some code.

The code is:

Private Sub ListBoxFind_AfterUpdate()

If ListBoxFind = 141 Then
Me.FilterOn = False
Else: Me.Filter = "[Assessment ID]= ListBoxFind"
Me.FilterOn = True

End If

End Sub

I've tried Me.ListBoxFind, Me.ListBoxFind.Value, and ListBoxFind.Value. In all cases, a message box pops up asking for ListBoxFind (in this iteration) and then the filter works with the value I type in. It just seems that the value from the ListBoxFind never gets into the code. ListBoxFind is a combo box with four columns and the value bound to column 1.

Thanks

Passing Multi Parameter Values To A Query

Aug 14, 2005

I have a query set up which needs to have different criteria at run time depending on values selected by the user. If no option is specified, I need to pick up all records with 'Nulls' in them else, if date is specified by user, I need to pick up all records with date > than specified date. The query is able to pick up the date value from an unbound text box in the form. I used the same field in the form and populated "Is Null" in the field and it does not work. How do I pass this as a paramater to the query from the form?
Is there a way around without setting up 2 sets of queries and reports?

Thanks,Priya :mad: :confused:

Problem With Passing Values From Calendar Control 10.0

Aug 23, 2007

Hi All,

I'm in the process of creating a database that allows users to enter details into a form which includes a date range as start and end dates.

I have used the inbuilt Calendar Control 10.0 control to allow users to select the date. It is linked to two combo boxes [cmbStartDate] and [cmbEndDate] using the following code (this code is repeated for each combo box):

Code:

Private Sub cmbStartDate_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)

Set cmbOriginator = cmbStartDate

ocxCalendar.Visible = True

ocxCalendar.SetFocus

If Not IsNull(cmbStartDate) Then

ocxCalendar.Value = cmbStartDate.Value

Else

ocxCalendar.Value = Date

End If
End Sub



And..

Private Sub ocxCalendar_Click()

''Update the ComboBox with the value entered into the ComboBox
''Put the value back into the relevant ComboBox
cmbOriginator.Value = ocxCalendar.Value

''Hide the calendar
cmbOriginator.SetFocus
ocxCalendar.Visible = False

''Clear the variable
Set cmbOriginator = Nothing

End Sub

This all seems to work fine- however, when I try to write the selected dates to a table or use them in a query they are not recognised (the form obviously needs to be open whilst the query runs), but if I manually type dates into these combo boxes these dates are picked up fine.

This is beginning to drive me mad so any help would be greatly appreciated.

General :: Passing A Field Value To Insert Query With Values

Jun 2, 2014

I have a button on a subform that becomes visible if there is no records in the source of the subform. When clicked I want to run a query that will insert a record on to the source of the subform. There is one field in the query that I need to get from the parent form.The first part works OK - the button is visible when the source file to the subform for this main form record, is empty.

If I run the query against the source file it inserts the new record after it has asked for the value of the variable field.My problem is that when I try to run the query when the button is clicked It can't find form![ClientFileFrm]![ClientId]..This is my code on the subform

Private Sub Form_Load()
If Me.RecordSource <> "" Then
If Me.Recordset.RecordCount = 0 Then
Me.AddSettingsButton.Visible = True

[code]...

The ClientFileFrm is the main form.I can't seem to reference the clientId variable back to the main form.

Modules & VBA :: Passing Values (From Two Column Listbox) To Saved Query

Oct 3, 2013

How can I pass two (2) values to a saved query ? These values are in a form that has a listbox with two (2) columns. The name of the form is 'Previous Evaluation Form'. I'm able to retrieve the values from both columns of the listbox in the form and I've already created the query. Both are working fine, but can figure out how to pass the query's criteria to select records for 'Name' and 'Date' columns of the query. Below is what I had in the 'Criteria:' of the query. What wrong with the code that is placed in the query's 'Criteria:' ?

Forms![Previous Evaluation Form]![Individuals].Column(0)
Forms![Previous Evaluation Form]![Individuals].Column(1)

Tables :: Passing Field Values Between Tables

Dec 10, 2014

Currently, we have a table which contains a field for each type of training that can be taken (FUT1, FUT2, ...). Once an Instructor has taken one seminar, the table is populated with the date taken, via their employee number (the key) through an update form.

Now, the company wants the paper training reports to turn into a digital part of this database. As envisioned, the form and associated table will have combo boxes with pre-determined training types (FUT1, FUT2, ...). The date would be typed in.

The problem I see is getting the dates and training type from the future table to populate the existing table in the correct field for the correct Instructor.

In addition, there exists a report which prints out the training dates for each Instructor at each school. This is will still be in use.

Modules & VBA :: Passing All Values From Subform To Another Subform

May 26, 2015

I know how to use openargs to pass values between forms but im not sure how to go about passing all the values from one subform to another.

To be specific I have an order form (frmCustomerOrders) that has fields like CustomerName, EmployeeName, OrderDate and so forth, the subform (frmCustomerOrdersSubform) contains information on the Products the customer is ordering which usually has multiple records with fields like ProductName, PartNumber, Quantity and ItemNumber. I want to pass the values from the CustomerOrdersSubform form to another subform (TransferSubform) My initial thought was to use something like the openform command through openargs but im not sure if that will work or if there is another method I should use.

Passing Data From Child Form, To The Original Form

Dec 8, 2007

Hi All,

I'm not sure if this should go in here or in VB Programming, because it's to do with an Access Database but it's VBA code.
But I understand that VBA and VB are different in the way they work.

I think this may have been looked at before, but I'm not very good at using the search function. I've looked on google, but all I've seen doesn't seem to be for my use, so I came here as recommended by "RadioActive Frog" who I believe is a member here.


Right, basically, I am writing an Access database for my company's ordering system.

I have a form called "Enquiry" which has many tabs, one of these is the "client" tab in in here are many fields:

Firstname
Surname
Company
Addressline1
Addressline2
Town
County
Postcode
Phones
Fax
AltMobile
Email
ContactType

Now, there is an option to enter a new client or search the database for an existing client and it is basically the "new client" which I'm having issue with at the moment.

Basically, clicking the button "New Client" opens another form called "Client". Here, the user enters the data into fields which are the same as above (but on this contact form).

When done, they click a button called "Save and Close" which then asks the user if they want to paste their entered data into the original main "Enquiry" form.

It's this last bit, the transferring of this data I can't get my head around and would be incredibly greatful for help with.

My Code is below:

Code:Private Sub Save_Click()On Error GoTo Err_Save_Click ' On clicking save, a dialogue box will open asking if you want to paste this data ' into the enquiry form. Clicking yes will do this. Clicking no will just close the box 'declare intpress as an integer Dim SavePress As Integer 'Save Command DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, acSaveRecord, , acMenuVer70 'when save and paste is clicked, ask if the information should be pasted into the form or not SavePress = MsgBox("Would you like to paste this Contact Information into the Enquiry Form?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Paste details") If SavePress = 6 Then 'If the enquiry form was the form which initiated the cotact form, then copy and paste 'the informtion into the enquiry form and the close the form 'If "Enquiry" = Me.OpenArgs Then <------ I have decided not to use this, as it doesn't seem to work. (I'm probably not using it correctly) Enquiry!FIRSTNAME = Me.FIRSTNAME Enquiry!SURNAME = Me.SURNAME Enquiry!COMPANY = Me.COMPANY Enquiry!CATEGORY = Me.CATEGORY Enquiry!ADDRESSLINE1 = Me.ADDRESSLINE1 Enquiry!ADDRESSLINE2 = Me.ADDRESSLINE2 Enquiry!TOWN = Me.TOWN Enquiry!COUNTY = Me.COUNTY Enquiry!POSTCODE = Me.POSTCODE Enquiry!PHONES = Me.PHONES Enquiry!ALTMOBILE = Me.ALTMOBILE Enquiry!EMAIL = Me.EMAIL DoCmd.Close acForm, "Contact" Else DoCmd.Close acForm, "Contact" End If Exit_Save_Click: Exit Sub

But It's not working. It's giving an error saying "Compile Error: Variable not defined" and it highlights the word which I've mad RED in the code above. Now, I tried changing the exclamation for a fullstop, and I also tried writing "Form.Enquiry.FIRSTNAME" (and also with exclamation marks). None have given a working result.


I'll try and get some print screens too for more visibleness (new made-up word there) so you can see what I mean.


Blessings,
Si


Edit: here are a couple of print screens:

1. The Client tab/page of the main enquiry form:

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y218/Mr_Si/Enquiry.jpg


2. The Client Details form, which opens as a result of pressing the "New Client" button in the main enquiry form (shown in the background):
