Hi All, Thank you for taking the time to read and/or help.
I have a mainform which I call frm1930Census this form has a tabbed form with two subforms one called sbf1930CenHeader and the other called sbf1930CenDep.
On the sbf1930CenDep form, I have a field called FTMID and a command button which opens a popup listbox search form called LstDepSearch.
The listbox has three columns FTMID, LastName, FirstName. The FTMID field is hidden. The popup form in theory stays open until the user double clicks the appropriate person and then have the FTMID field on the frm1930Census.sbf1930CenDep.fTMID fill in.
This is what I have....
Private Sub LstDepSearch_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
Forms.fm1930Census!sbf1930CenDep.Form!FTMID = Me.LstDepSearch.Column(0)
DoCmd.Close
End Sub
I have a subform I am using on a form. I would like to modify the code below that I have for a button on the form. I would like to use the master and child field link in the code below to only show candidates related to the main form. The link is candidate id. I have this working with a subform on the form but I would like to have this only display as a pop-up once the user clicks the button on the form. Is this possible? Thanks..
Private Sub Candidates_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Candidates_Click

i'm using the attached popup calander in my form and subform ,,, it works perfect in my form but when using in the subform, i get an error saying "the specified form can't be found"
if i open the subform as a form it works
so my question, is do i have to change anything in the calandar code so it could open in subform as well ??
I can't seem to get this to work. I have a Mainfrm with a Subfrm. On the Subfrm I have a field that has to be a concatenation of two inputs. To do this I have created a PopUpfrm for that field that has two list boxes. The user then chooses one from ListA and one from ListB. This populates an unbound field (fldCode) on the PopUpfrm. I need to pass this data to the original field on the Subfrm.
I've tried: Forms!Mainfrm!Subfrm.Form.Field1 = me.fldCode and every possible iteration of this that I can figure out.
Any suggestions on how to pass this information back to the Subfrm.Field1?
If I run just the Subfrm, w/o opening the Mainfrm everything works great. I guess I just don't know how to reference that field when it is actually in the Mainfrm.
On there is a Subform called subfrmFront and that has a source object of the form f_front
A button on f_main opens up a popup. In this popup, the fields I am updating all relate to the same records that are being displayed in the subform. Everything updates OK in the popup (i.e I can see in the table that the updated information is in there), but the subform back on f_main still has the old data in it.
I need to requery that subform to show the new data I just inputted.
If I close f_main and re-open it, the latest data is in there, but surely there is a way to make sure it updates on the close of the popup form.
I have a continuous Form [Letter Log - All] with "LetterNo" field as the primary key. What i want to do is click the "LetterNo" and a filtered pop up form with subform should appear based on what has been clicked. But i don't have luck doing that. The name of the main form is "LetterLog" and its subform control name is "LetterLogSub"
here is what i did.
Code:
Private Sub LetterNo_Click() 'DoCmd.OpenForm "LetterLogSub", acNormal, , "LetterNo = " & Me.LetterNo, acFormEdit, acDialog <-- this one works but without the subform 'DoCmd.OpenForm "LetterLog", acNormal, , "Forms!LetterLog!LeteterLogSub.Form.LetterNo = " & Me.LetterNo, acFormEdit, acDialog 'DoCmd.OpenForm "LetterLog", acNormal, "LetterNo", "me.LetterLogSub.Form!LetterNo = " & Me.LetterNo, acFormReadOnly, acDialog DoCmd.OpenForm "LetterLog", acNormal, "LetterNoFilter", "Forms!LetterLog!LetterLogSub.form!LetterNo = " & Me.LetterNo, acFormEdit, acDialog End Sub
I had a subform to enter payments. It worked well. The master and child fields linked well and all the necessary data appended to a new record in the payments table.
Now to make it more user friendly, I changed the subform to a popup form (The 2 forms took up too much real estate on the screen).I deleted the payments subform and created a command button to open the payments form as a popup.
I need 3 fields on the payments form to be populated from the edit sponsor form (sponsorID, MemberID, SponsorTypeID) and then payment details to be entered and posted to a new record in the payments table.Since I've changed the payment form from a subform to a popup form, the master/child relationships are gone and the 3 fields I need for the payment record no longer appear.
In my Student Administration database I am trying to launch a popup form from a sub-form of a Job Positions and Seekers form. The sub form is actually one of 2 sub-forms, both Continuous Forms default view, on a form linked via an unbound control (MasterJobPosID).
The first sub-form is called and lists open Job Positions and the 2nd sub form is called and lists all Students Seeking each of the positions. The Students Seeking subform is linked to the unbound control MasterJobPosID in the main form which is set to equal the Job Positions subform's JobPosRecNo field which is the key to the Job Positions table.
The popup form is called Job Employment and is being launched via an event macro from the Students Seeking subform. It will allow the user to create a record in the Job Employment table. The event macro has a Where statement that says "=JobPositionID And Student", an attempt to link it to both the Job Position record being filled and the Student filling it.
I am able to populate the popup form's fields in expressions setting Default Values equal to fields on the loaded Job Positions subform and the Student from the Students Seeking subform. What I am unable to get is the Job Position record key from any of the 3 fields it appears in on the Job Positions and Seekers form:
MasterJobPosID on the main form.JobPosRecNo on the Job Positions sub form.JobPositionID on the Students Seeking subform.
I want that to link the new Job employment record to the Job Position record the student is filling. In fact I get a parameter prompt for JobPositionID when the popup form is launched.
I am trying to run a macro on doubleclick in a subform (dataview) that will open the same record in a popup form (tabular).
I've enter in the macro Where Condition the following statement to only show the record I doubleclicked on in the popup. The only problem is it's asking me for a parameter value for the LogID. Its apparently not picking up the LogID I doubleclicked on. Is there any way I can fine-tune this WHere statement so that it knows the record LogID I clicked on. (The pop up form should show only the same record).
So I created a new form that multiple coworkers will have access to. I understand that you can password protect an entire data base, but I was wondering if you could go deeper than that. I have a main form with a combo box (query to show existing IDs) for "ClientID" that links the main form and subform (Its controlsource is ClientID from the table the subform was created off of). If a user selects an existing ClientID, the linked subform pops up with the selected ClientID displayed on the subform in a field along with existing additional information displayed. If The user types in an ID not in the database, a blank subform comes up for the coworker to create this new record and the field for ClientID is blank.
1) How can I make it so that when a coworker types in a ClientID in the combobox that is not in the database, the blank subform that pops up has the ClientID field filled out with what was typed in the main form.
2) Situation: Adding a new client to the main form, and filling out the additional in on the popup subform. I want there to be a field on the main form for "worker". The worker will put their ID and create a new client record. Is it possible to make it only possible for this worker to edit this client record in the future? ...the original creator will be the only one able to edit the information.
-I am thinking maybe have a table with all workers and associated passwords. So, if a user tries to open a subform created by another worker, he will be prompted to enter a password (which will be the one associated to the creator in this "secret" table.
I have a "Main" form called frmProjects that sports multiple tabs. One of those tabs is labelled "Milestones", into which I inserted a datasheet subform called frmSubMilestones. The table that feeds the subform is tblMilestones. I established the parent / child relationship between frmProject and frmSubMilestones, and everything is working just fine...
To summarize: frmProject as main form -> Milestones Tab on main form -> frmSubMilestones as datasheet subform on the Milestones Tab (there are other tabs that are not subforms).
I have been asked, for each milestone in the frmSubMilestones subform's datasheet, to capture the number of days spent by employees on a monthly basis. The Milestones table and the PersonDays table have a primary key and a foreign key that are similar.
To summarize: frmSubMilestones as subform -> txtAggregatePersonDays as calculated Textbox fetching data from tblPersonDays -> OnClick event -> FormLoad of frmPersonDays as datasheet PopUp form.
DoCmd.FormLoad is supplied with the usual parameters to make the PopUp form appear, filtered on the currently highlighted milestone. Everything works fine so far... well almost.
Problem 1: When I introduce new rows in the frmPersonsDays datasheet, everything seems fine at the surface, BUT the primary key of the calling form (i.e. frmSubMilestones) does not appear in the tblPersonDays table; this is normal because there is no form-based parent / child relationship between the two forms. As one might expect, I am trying, from frmPersonDays, to get the primary key value from the "parent" frmSubMilestones using the Forms collection. No dice. I surfed and surfed, tried the bang and the dot operators, drank scotch, but nothing worked. I had to add foreing keys manually in tblPersonDays to further my tests. I can't figure out how to reach any control on the calling form, which is a subform.
Problem 2: The calculated txtAggregatePersonDays on the frmSubMilestones works wonders for existing data in tblPersonDays. However, when I introduce new rows in the PopUp form, I also realized that the calculated Textbox in frmSubMilestones is not updated when I close the frmPersonDays PopUp. I have to close the PopUp form and move the cursor in the Main form (frmProjects) to refresh its associated milestones.
I have a form, and this form contains a list box which displays data from a query. When you double click on the list result it displays the results on the form. (This is done by some visual basic code)
The query which is the source of the list box works so that it displays just the results for that client, with this everything is perfect as an individual form.
However this form is a subform for another form and the subform is placed in a tab. And when i load the form it:
1. Can't find the field to filter the list box to each specific client.
2. When i double click on anything in the list table it displays an error "can't find the form 'frm_jobs' referred to in macro expression or visual basic code".
As it works perfectly when the forms loaded separatley. Im a bit stuck to what the problem maybe.
I have subform which uses a SQL statement as the record source. One of the criteria (ie. Part of the WHERE condition) is a column value from a ListBox on the MainForm.
Two problems exist: 1. When the MainForm opens, I get a "Enter Parameter Value" window, asking me to input the value it should be getting from the ListBox. (I suppose this is fair enough, as the ListBox hasn't been created/populated yet!) 2. When the ListBox is there, when I click on a row, I still get the "Enter Parameter Value" window! -I'm using a Requery on the Subform's control on the MainForm when the row is clicked. -A MsgBox within the OnClick event, is giving me the value that the SQL statement should be using! But the Subform doesn't seem to want to 'see' this value.
The five listbox controls each show the list by the IngredientType, so one listbox shows vegetables, another Meat, and so on. Multi-select is turned on for each listbox. Here is what I want to do: In the form I want to have a subform that will show what the user clicks in listboxes. This running list, with an extra column next to it that will accept a number. Example: say the user selects 'Ham' from the meat listbox. The subform should then show 'Ham' and a space next to it where he can type an integer (allowing for more meat).
Subform:
Ham | 2 Lettuce | 1 Mayo | 1 Subroll | 1
If the user de-selects the item in the listbox I'd like the subform to delete the item from itself.
I have a Listbox that I want to use to go to a record on a subform. I know that it cant be done with the wizard.
The records that I am looking at don't have an ID so I want to look at both a date field [TrainingDate] and a Time Field [TrainingTime]. I have set the querry up and the list gets populated with the correct information. And I have added the following code to the AfterUpdate Event
I will have a ListBox on the form with “Multi Select” set to either simple or extended. I have a collection of documents which must be recorded in a database. Some documents may have only one author, but could have more. Same with the recipient or copied-to.
Ideally it would be nice to have the ListBox on the left, selected one or more from the list and then pass them to one of the three fields by a command button, sort of like:
I would like to have all of the names selected from the ListBox as a string, but fully understand the problems associated with normalization. Other posts have suggested subforms. So, the question is how to select from the ListBox and then pass the possible multiple selections to discrete fields on a subform that would display, say three fields and which would get away from the normalization issues:
The secondary issue will be that there will be subsequent names which are not found until actually in the process of document review which will create a need to update the ListBox, which I know is not akin to a ComboBox NotInList function.
If there are any thoughts or coding out there which will help, it’d be appreciated. Lawguy
I'm new to MS Access but I'm trying to do subcontractors database for my company. I've got a menu form with to listboxes on it. First listbox is a subcontractor name if I choose the name the second list box will show me the names of the emplyess attached to this subcontractor. Second form is subcontractor details with emplyees subform. If I will dblclick subcontractor listbox it takes me to record with subcontractor but I can't figuret out how to do that if I dblclick the employee listbox it will take me to appropriet subcontractor detail and to wright employee details. PLEASE HELP ME. I'm strugling with this. Thanks
I've made it to set focus to subform, but if I will choose a subcontractor from the first listbox and dblclick on lstEmployee it is choose wrong record of the employee. Have somebody have an idea what I'm doing wrong
I don't know how to attach the file,can sombody tell me how.
Code of this listbox:
Private Sub lstEmployee_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) DoCmd.OpenForm "Subcontractors", acNormal, "", "", , acNormal DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acGoTo, Forms!Menu!lstSubcontractor Forms!Subcontractors!tblEmployeesubform.SetFocus Forms!Subcontractors!tblEmployeesubform.Form.Emplo yeeID.SetFocus DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acGoTo, Forms!Menu.Form!lstEmployee End Sub
I think last line makes me those troubles but I don't have an idea what is wrong.
I am trying to get my VBA to filter the subform, as currently it does nothing! I have copied it from a source on another forum and at the end of the VBA it originally opened up the query.
However I am trying to tailor this query so that instead of it opening the query I can have a datasheet on the form that displays the filtered records..
There are 3 multiselect listboxes
Here is my code
' This code uses ADO and ADOX and is suitable for Access 2000 (and later). ' A reference must be set to Microsoft ADO Ext. 2.7 for DDL and Security. Private Sub cmdOK_Click() Dim cat As New ADOX.Catalog Dim cmd As New ADODB.Command Dim qry As ADOX.View
Hi, I'm new here, so I hope I'm posting this in the correct place. I've searched the forum to see if there are any existing threads that might help me, but I've not found anything that does... (I think this thread ( http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=93444&highlight=Copying+data )may be trying to achieve something similar to me, but I'm a beginner and don't really understand it)
I shall stop waffling! I'm not entirely sure that what I'm trying to achieve is possible, I expect it probably is!
Right, I have a form (frmGroupRegister, which contains exactly the same fields as the table it comes from, tblGroupRegister), which consists of three things:
-GroupDate - The date a group took place on. It is my primary key, as no more than one group occurs on a specific date.
-ParentList (A listbox which contains a query showing the ID number, forename and surname of everyone in a table, tblParentDetails)
-ParentsAttending (A blank listbox)
I would like to place buttons in between the ParentList and ParentsAttending, which would allow users to conduct a 'register' of attendance by copying individual/multiple details from ParentList into ParentsAttending (much like you get when choosing which fields to include in a form when using a wizard for example). I would also like them to be able to remove people from ParentsAttending by using a button in case of accidentally adding the wrong person into the ParentsAttending box.
I'm aware that another, probably simpler way of achieving this would be to use a tick-box system, but I feel that visually, the first method would both look better and demonstrate who is present more clearly.
Any help would be much appreciated, but my Access skills are quite basic and things will probably need to be spelled out for me. I'm using Access 2000 and Windows XP. Thanks for your help, Alice :)
