Hi, i have a slight problem that i could really do with some help on.
I have a form in which u can edit/add or delete details of a record. What i would like to do is when someone presse's the delete button i would like a box to pop up asking for a password to be entered before the record is deleted just to prevent certain records from being deleted.
Thanks,
Ben
On a "delete record" command button I want to put a password prompt so when you press it, it will only allow you to delete the record if a password is entered.
How?
Hi All,
I have three excel files (ActualHires.xls, ActualPromotions.xls and
ActualSeparation.xls). These are password protected files (with the
same password). They are linked to an access database and whenever the
files are opened, one must supply the password and click the 'Enable
automatic refresh button.' What I was wondering was if this could be
done in access with a command button. I have pasted some code below
that I found but now I'm getting an error.
This is the code:
Dim BookNames As Variant
Dim B As Long
BookNames = Array("O:ExcelFilesActualHires.xls",
"O:ExcelFilesActualPromotions.xls",
"O:ExcelFilesActualSeparations.xls")
For B = LBound(BookNames) To UBound(BookNames)
WorkBooks.Open FileName:=BookNames(B), _
UpdateLinks:=3, Password:="*******"
WorkBooks(B).Close SaveChanges:=False
Next B
But when I click the button, I get this error:
Run-time error '9' Subscript out of range.
and this line is highlighted:
WorkBooks(B).Close SaveChanges:=False
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
All I am trying to do is insert to have a form with a "Delete Record" button on it. The problem is I don't want anyone to be able to delete a record, I would like someone to have to insert a password to confirm the delete.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI am rewriting an old Access 2003 database in Access 2010. When creating new command buttons, the current theme gives them a default appearance. I need to apply this appearance to old command buttons. I know there is a way to select the default button and apply its properties to others quickly. I have done it before but didn't write the process down .
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have created a web-database (? - There are globes over all the forms and tables icons) based on the Issues & Tasks template. This means that most of the data is entered and seen on the "Main" form, which has two tabs - Open Issues and Closed Issues. I have created a form that allows people at my work to input the necessary data and save it, so that it will show up on one of the two tabs. However, once a record has been created, I want to be initially locked if the ID/PK is clicked, so that data can't be changed or entered inadvertently.
SO, I changed the code so that when the ID/PK for a record is clicked, it brings up a different form, but one that looks exactly like the one that is brought up when entering a new form, but I locked all of the fields so that the information cannot be changed. It seems from what I have read that I can create a button on this form so that when clicked, it unlocks the fields on the form so that they can be changed, and then when clicked again it will lock the fields again. Is this true? If so, how can I do it? Or is there something similar I can do? I have seen codes that I could copy and paste, but I cannot figure out the place to copy and paste codes in Access 2010.
I have changed the Form properties so that Data Entry and all the "Allows" are set to No...
I'm new in access world. please help. I have many forms that control by On click command from the main form. One of the form (which is Calendar form), I like to have password protect in away that only the right ID or password would have access to edit this Calendar, If not users can only view it. Is this possible?, if it is can you please provide some code for me...Thanks in advance..

I am creating a customised command button from a label button. The new button works fine but I can't apply the 'requery' function to it, if i do an error occures and i am being prompt to save the data first???? :confused: :
Private Sub Labelsearch_Click()
Me!itemquery.Requery
End Sub
Private Sub Labelsearch_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Me.Labelsearch.SpecialEffect = 2
Me.Labelsearch.BackColor = 255
Me.Labelsearch.ForeColor = 10092543
Me.Labelsearch.FontItalic = True
Me.Labelsearch.FontBold = True
End Sub
Private Sub Labelsearch_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Me.Labelsearch.ForeColor = 255
Me.Labelsearch.FontItalic = False
Me.Labelsearch.FontBold = True
End Sub
Private Sub Labelsearch_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
'Come back to initial state when button release'
Me.Labelsearch.SpecialEffect = 1
Me.Labelsearch.BackColor = 16373685
Me.Labelsearch.ForeColor = 8388608
Me.Labelsearch.FontItalic = False
Me.Labelsearch.FontBold = True
End
If I create a command button with the wizard and assign the code :
me!itemquery.Requeryto the on_click event my form is working fine.
Why is his code is not working if I assign it to a label? :o

I have created a database where my boss wants a password on the one button to limit access. Is this possible. The button actually opens the Database Window (no one else knows the bypass to open it F11)
Thank you
Hello All, i am trying to write a macro or use VBA code or something that will allow me to change my password when i click on a command button.

Can anybody help?

p.s: Access Novice Here !!
I would like to ask how can i validate the username and password in a textbox? I have a frmLogin and frmMain.
I have also a table called 'tblUsers' with column fields 'username and password'.
If username is not found in database then a msgbox will prompt 'Username is not yet created'.
If username is okay and password is incorrect then msgbox will prompt 'Incorrect password'
If username and password is okay, then a msgbox will prompt 'Successfully login' and will continue to frmMain.
Being dealing with my database and having quite some trouble with it. Is it possible to track down what the users did, during the time they login into, database, is it possible to prompt users for password and username when they buttons for like, delete cmd, or update command.
Just a breif idea on what im trying to do.(hopefully it won't confused you all)
Im trying to created a 2 main username. One is for admin group and another is for users group. Then users can login in to database, however whenever the users update or delete entries in the database, the user will prompt for their username and password (not the users group login ). Is it possible to build a table to store in the username and password for the prompting purposes one.
Sorry for confusing question. Actually im trying to think of another way, but for now this complicated event all i have think of. Feel free to voice your suggestion here. Thanks alot. TQ
How can I generate a random string to a text field from a button. I
Say I have a form..
On the form I have:
X1 Button (BTN-Generate-Password)
X1 Text Field (TF-Generated-Password)
How can I make it so when the button is clicked a random string will appear in the text box
HTML Code:
Private Sub BTN-Generate-Password_Click()
(What Do I put here?) (Will it populate the Text Field?)
End Sub
- 9 Characters
- Upper and Lower Case
- Numeric & Alpha Numeric
- These Characters (!@#$%)
I have a form in which I collect approvals from two different departments. To approve an item the user selects their name from a combobox, and then tick an option box to indicate approval. The combobox is from table 'Users' and has a query as a source with the following fields, 'UserNum, First, Last, Password'. The 'approval' fields are on table 'Approvals' and are yes/no fields.
What I'd like to have happen is that the user chooses their name from the combobox and then ticks the option box for approval; when ticked I would like a messagebox to appear asking for the users password based on the name chosen in the combobox.
Is this even possible?
I have been working on this for awhile, and can't figure it out for the life of me!
I have a form set up with a drop down box that lets me pick from values from a table based off of the Primary Key of that table (Row Source = SELECT Order.OrderID, Order.OrderName from Order). I have a button on the form that I want to set a value (Closed) from the table entry based off of the order selected.
Pseudo code would go something like this.
Closed.Value = True Where Table.Order.OrderID = SelectedOrderID
Table.Order is a Table Named Order (obviously)
Closed is a yes/no field in my Order table
OrderID is the primarykey of the table Order
SelectedOrderID is the drop down box.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I, unfortunately, have been singled out as the Access guru in my work area. We have 223 people and the Information Manager has tasked me to modify a database he "found" to be able to track a number of things, but most important to him: performance reports.
I have posted the sample of what I currently have. What is being asked of me is a way in which to have a button or by double-clicking a block where a date would go for all other dates on the form to become non-visible while the current date stored in the computer the database is being worked from be entered in the block where the button or double-click happened. All this links to a report for the IM to be able to track what performace reports are out, and when they are due back to his section. He also wants me to be able to show which are overdue and where they are at. I am not sure if it is at all possible, but with me having spend most of last week purusing the articles on Access here, I know now that nothing is implausible if you happen to go about it the right way.
Since I have read the rules on posting, here is what I have done. I searched the forum for command button and got a lot of really cool ideas to use elsewhere in the database. I looked up the help in the program itself for command button, and got some good information on how a command button works, but I cannot make it put a date into a block. I can enter the date in any block that is a date format, but then I have dates in every block. He only wants to see the most current date in any of the blocks.
Any assistance at this point would be appreciated. If I have missed something in another thread, I apologise in advance.
how can i assign a formula to a command button?
also can anyone give me specific advice about calucalating the % of check boxes ticked across multiple records.
thanks in advance
A couple of weeks ago I asked the question of how to send a single record from one table to another (Archive table) using a command button. I got a response. I have had time to work with this a little. My problem is I keep getting a error message "Run-time error '3075'; Syntax error (missing operator) in Query expression "[New ID]='. I wanted to mention that the archive table has an "archive ID" field as well as "New ID" that links the tables. I have the following code. Please help with this if possible.
" Private Sub Command667_Click()
' Save the main record if it has not been saved.
If Me.Dirty Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSave
Me.Recalc
End If
If MsgBox("Do you want to archive this record?", vbYesNo) = vbYes Then
Dim SQL As String
' Move main record to Grants Activity Archive.
SQL = "Insert into [Grants Activity Archive]" & _
" select * from [Grants] where [New ID]=" '" & Me.ID & "'"
CurrentDb.Execute SQL
Me.Recalc
End If
End Sub "
The error seems to refer to the & Me.ID section. I have tried putting Me.New ID and also Me.Archive ID. The Grants Activity Archives is the subform where I want the record to go. This subform is set up like a form with many fields so it is a lot of work to type the main record from the Grants table to the Grants Activity Archive table every time you want to archive a record. I hope that makes sense.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
How can I make command button on my DAP to use update query that I wrote? :confused:
Hi everyone,
This is perhaps a simple question for which I have not been able to find an answer to. I've been trying to create a form which contain command buttons, but the problem is that the look of these buttons are not similar to those found in Windows XP.
I know it’s purely cosmetic :cool: - but how do I make my buttons in Access 2003 to look like those on my Windows XP?
I've seen some samples here on these forums which have the 'XP' look. Any hints on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.
All the best,
Sab.
