I need to create a New Form control for this situation:
If I enter a date into a field and the choice for another field is equal to a certain value. How can I get the date I entered to be automatically populated into another date field.
For example:
If I enter 11/10/2005 in a date field and I choose either "BN", "BA", or "BT" in a text field, I need that date of 11/10/2005 to be automatically populated in another date field on the same form.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I have a form with a text box where the user enters a date and then clicks a button titled "Add." I've added an on-click event to the Add button that runs an append query that adds several records to a table [tblTracking]. I have a field in tblTracking called EndDate. I want the date that's entered into the text box by the user to be populated into all the new records added to the tblTracking when the append query is run. Currently, all fields in tblTracking are populated when the append query is run, except the EndDate field.
Is this possible? If so, how?
I've experimented with adding a separate on-click event that adds a record to a separate table containing only the date entered in the textbox and an auto-populated ID field. I thought there might be a way to utilize the ID field to pull the associated EndDate into the Tracking table, but I can't figure that out, either, since I don't know how to tell it to look at the date field in the last record of the table. That sounds unsafe anyway.
I stumbled upon the Option Group function just yesterday and, happy as a clam, I created a group with 2 options in radio button style. I assigned the values to a field called Registration_Type as the 2 options are "Confirmed Registrants" and "Prospective Attendees".
[Great. That part works well. When I look at the table, a 1 or a 2 is in that field so it's great to know how to control accidental ticking of radio buttons (previous 450 records or so didn't have this option group functionality so one might easily tick one of the buttons. So one part of controlling option group I know I can handle via the table itself for now.]
The challenge is how to ensure the user always ticks one or the other ... I went back to the main table and tested the 'required entry' option for the Registration_Type field but forcing an action like this is not ideal in my mind. The usual error message vagueness for the average user is no good and I don't want to limit the user so much.
Is there a way to simply have a popup come up warning that neither radio button was ticked? Perhaps something linked to the form - i.e., maybe "after update"?? I only learned about attaching code to before and after update on controls a couple of days ago, so not sure if this would be best approach.
Just something to let the user know that nothing has been ticked in the option group as that controls in which of 2 reports the data will show up in so any record not ticked might mean a registrant being left out, which would be rather disastrous <g>.

I have a form with a text box that the user enters their name into. When they click submit a menu form is opened. I want the name that was entered to be carried over to a field on the menu form. This will welcome the user, eg: WELCOME John Smith.
Im thinking that i should use the INSERT INTO function, but im not sure of how to go about it.
I have a date field in a form fed by an option group. Most of the options return the correct values, but I'm having a hard time with this:
If the inspection date (in another form) is in Jan Feb or March, then return the date 1 Apr of the inspection year. If not, then return 1 Apr of the following year.
Here is the trouble line:
Code:
Case 2
IIf (Month([Forms]![FrmGeneralInspection]![txtInspectionDate]) <= 3), Me![txtReInspectionDate] = DateSerial(Year([Forms]![FrmGeneralInspection]![txtInspectionDate]) + 1, 4, 1), Me![txtReInspectionDate] = DateSerial(Year([Forms]![FrmGeneralInspection]![txtInspectionDate]) + 2, 4, 1)
automatically populate the value of a field [Industry] in a table after a user has entered the value in another field [IndustryCode] in the same table. The [IndustryCode] and "Industry" are stored in a separated table [2012IndustryCodeTable]. I have tried using DLookup and cannot get it to work.
Ex.
|IndustryCode|Industry|InvestigationDate|
|001 |Car |
|002 |Plane |
How can i get the [Industry] to populate the information from the [2012IndustryCodeTable] once a user enters the code into the [IndustryCode] field in a table?
I have an simple option group (3 options 1,2 and3!!)I am building a query where I need to display records whose option group field in the table is empty. I have tried:
field = Int(0)
field = ""
field = null
isempty(field)
do not work.
I’m really stuck on how to create: Check Boxes/Option button/Option Group in VBA.
Could someone help on either all of them or some of them please?
Thanks

I am using an Access database for a foreign language dictionary project.
One of the forms I use is populated by a query (qryLemmaTable) to retrieve information from tblLEMMA.
This form works precisely as I intend it to work, but there is a glitch on it that is driving me mad.
The form in question has an option group with 11 radio buttons that correspond to the parts of speech associated with each word in tblLEMMA.
When I click on the button optAdjective I apply a filter and the only records that are displayed are adjectives. (The same applies for Nouns, Verbs, Prepositions etc.)
Here is the glitch: even though the radio buttons apply the filter correctly, no “black spot” appears in the button. Other signals on the screen let me know what word type is selected, so I can accomplish what I want, but I want the “black spots” too!
Perhaps this will be a clue: For each radio button I use the following code in the GotFocus event.
Me.FilterOn = False
Me.Filter = "wordtype = 'A'" ‘(or N, etc)
Me.FilterOn = True
And this for the Lost Focus event
Me.FilterOn = False
Thanks for the help.
Hi
I've got an Option Group with 3 options; Yes, No and Future.
I also have a range of Check Boxes; 1 for every day of the week.
When one of the check boxes is selected I want the Option Group to change to Yes.
Currently, the Option Group defaults to Future and No will only be available by manually selecting it. This doesn't need to be changed.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Cheers
I am building an Access database for a client. It is an employee staffing database. With that being said they would like the ability to automatically populate the "T2PPCD" date field based on what is entered into the "Report Date" field. (Same table)
The date is the Monday after 180 days from the report date.
I already know how to get it to auto fill 180 days from the "Report Date" but I'm not sure how to tell it to give me the Monday after 180 days.
I am wanting to populate a field by entering a date in another field. I am trying to determine age(years, months, and weeks) of something by entering a date in another field. Is that possible in Access?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
I need to have a date field auto populated with the current date, when a check box is selected on the same form/table.
I am OK with access but self taught, so treat me like a rookie.
Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.
At present I have a form which is used to select a date range then using one of three buttons I can select one of three reports. I want to use an Option Group with three options to replace the three buttons. I have fiddled around using three separate Option Buttons and they work ok but in my opinion they are not the way to go. I need some assistance with the code as the Option Group is slightly different to the Option Buttons.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a very simple option group, status 1, 2 , 3 or 4. When the status of the group is changed i have the following code used to label txtStatusChangeAudit which lables who changed it based on the log in name. I have this code for each of the four options. The code works great but when i leave the form and come back to it the txtStatusChangeAudit that holds the code is now blank. When i click an option it again shows the information i want.
How do i get the form to save this information so when i leave the form and come back to it the last person to change the status will still be present?
Private Sub OpenOptionButton_GotFocus()
Me.StatusChangeAudit = "Status Open By; " & User.UserName & Space(1) & (Now)
End Sub
Thanks a million..

This should be an easy one.... I had an existing form. Needed a second form. But the two were so close I just added and option group to make certian fields visible when that option was picked. Now.... The problem is sorting or doing a query by the value of the option group. What I am thinking is I need to store the value of the option to a field. ie My option group is named "PickWO" the value is "1" or "2", so I added a field to my WO table... so how do I store the value of "1" or "2" to the new field? Hope this makes sense!
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have created an option group. There is a question and the response is yes, no or N/A. If the answer is no or N/A then I want to skip to the next question. If the answer is yes then I want to ask a follow up question. How would I make it so that when the answer is no or na and the user hits tab it would skip right over the follow up portion and move on to the next question?

Hi,
I have a option group with several buttons. Is it possible to apply a msgbox to one of the buttons where it will ask the user "Are you sure you want to generate report to excel". I would like the user click ok to continue or cancel. I am not sure how to get this message box prior to the code running when the option button is pressed. Thanks you for your time.
Will someone look at my option group in my form (frmcustomer) and help me figure out why the option group selections for existing records nulls out (visually you cannot see which button had been previously selected).
The option group is working fine in that it is adding the appropriate selection to the record, but when you open the form up in edit mode the selection has been grayed out.
I have an Option Group with 3 choices...1,2 and 3. The default value is 2 as setup in the table default value setting.
I have a subform that has a check box and when checked I want the Option Group value to be "1" otherwise I want the default value of "2" or "3" to remain in the table. I can get all this to work through a Afterupdate code in the subform check box except the part where I want the value left at what
ever was in the option group part. Here is my code...
Private Sub Paperwork_Returned_AfterUpdate()
If Me.Paperwork_Returned = "yes" Then
Me.Parent.paperworkstatus = "1"
Else
Me.Parent.paperworkstatus = False
End If
End Subvalue
I think the problem is in the "Else" part. The if trus seems to work but if false it will not leave the previouse value in the field.
This last little thing is the last thing I need to finish up. This board has taught me so much...most of all it has taught me that when somebody ask me if I am an advanced access user, I will have to say is anyone? This program is so powerful and I can take a lifetime to master, or so it seems.
Thank you!
