Prevent Form From Updating When An Error Message Occur
Mar 8, 2006
Hello all,
I have 5 check boxes on a form and one of them must be checked in order to get the correct result.
If the user does not check any of the the five checkboxes he gets a msgbox telling him that he must checks one of the checkboxes.
What i want to ask is if is possible to prevent the form from updating? Because the user gets the error message but after that the form is being updated even though he hasn't check any of the fields.
Thank you in advance!

So now, I'm using the code below to prevent duplicate name entry and it is working great - EXCEPT when I enter a first or last name which contains a ' (ie, O'Tool, O'Malley, O'Hern)...anyone got any ideas for me on how to make this not happen?
The error I get is:
Run Time error '3075'
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression '[Last Name]='O'Hern' And [First Name]='Lori'.
The code i'm using is:
Private Sub Last_Name_AfterUpdate()
'Check for duplicate first and last name using DCount
If DCount("*", "[Constituents]", "[Last Name]= '" & Me![Last Name] & "' And [First Name] = '" & Me![First Name] & "'") > 0 Then
Beep
MsgBox "This first and last name already exists in the database. Please check that you are not entering a duplicate constituent before continuing.", vbOKOnly, "Duplicate Value"
Cancel = True
End If
CustID_Exit:
Exit Sub
CustID_Err:
MsgBox Error$
Resume CustID_Exit
End Sub

Hi,
Mainform and Subform are linked on field "barcode".
Barcode is the primary key for the table that Mainform is based on.
When user is entering a new record, I have the BeforeUpdate event of Mainform.barcode set to check to see if the barcode already exists in the table, and if so, to give the user some meaningful error message.
Works fine, except that the subform still updates to match the invalid, previously-used barcode. I want the subform to stay blank until the user has entered valid data in MainForm.
How do I accomplish this?
Thanks for any ideas.

I am working on a web database with a form which is bound to an underlying web table where the submissions occur.My challenge is that the fields on the form get submitted to the table even before the submit button is clicked regardless of whether the form was completely filled.
My request is that I want the form to only submit to the submission table only when the submit button is clicked.When I searched on the net, the only solutions I got are VBA written code but my web database cannot use VBA code.
VBA code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private blnGood As Boolean
Private Sub cmdSave_Click()
blnGood = True
Call DoCmd.RunCommand(acCmdSaveRecord)
blnGood = False
End Sub
[code]....

Hi,
I am wondering whether it is possible to trigger the run of a macro when a form window is closed using the close button in the top right of a standard window?
If not, then is it possible to display a form in a window without the minimize, restore and close buttons?
I am currently using a setup whereby I have a button to close a form, and when clicked a macro is executed. However, the user could just as easily close the form using the close button of the window and the updates would not be performed.
Thanks in advance

Hi all,
I'm creating a simplified timecard entry form, and everything works perfect except one thing. When I start a new record and go to the subform and choose the day (monday - friday) it says "This property is read-only and cannot be set" but then it goes ahead and accepts the entry.
A little background, I am making the times as simplified entry (100 for 1pm, 800 for 8am, 500 for 5pm) no colons will be entered. Our hours of operation are roughly 7am until 630pm, with the occassional clock in before 6am and clock out up until 8pm or so. I have this error checking in place, it works ok, I add 1200 to the time if it is pm. Now if they are making a straight time adjustment, they enter it in as well.... for instance 8 for 8hrs holiday pay or paid time off. All this stuff works, that's not the problem.
I am thinking, maybe it might have something to do with having 4 or 5 fields set as the combined primary key on the table that holds the time/adjustment data. The reason I did the combined primary key is so they could enter in the same name, the same start date, even the same day, but the adjustment/time value has to be unique when it is compared with the start date, name, day, adjustment/time value. This table is the subform.
The weird thing is, that after the error, it lets the value stand and does not show the error again, as long as you are on this recordset. If I go back into that record and start a new entry below the others, I get the error again. While the error has no detrimental effects on the db, it is annoying.... and it still shows if I run the form off a macro with setwarnings to false.
I am including the database for review for those of you brave enough to try to understand my logic I'm sure it's something simple. I don't see anything in the properties for the form to turn off error messages like you can in data access pages, or maybe I just overlooked it. I have left one recordset in to show the functionality, it all works according to plan. This is just a rudementary database, I will fine tune it after I get past this hurdle.
Edit: I have Calendar control 11.0 for the start date, but this isn't the problem as it still did it when I had the actual field showing. That, and if you see the disparity between hours and minutes and paid time, it's because if they worked so many hours, 1/2 hour is automatically subtracted. Which is why there is a lunch adjustment field.... if they didn't take a lunch or if they took too long of a lunch.

I have a combo box on my form which loads fields from a table and displays them using
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT table_team.team FROM table_team;
I then use
Code:
=[qry_showteamforedit]![team]
in the default value for the combobox to show the team which is saved in the current record.This is the qry_showteamforedit:
Code:
SELECT table_team.team
FROM table_team RIGHT JOIN table_staff_details ON table_team.ID = table_staff_details.team
WHERE table_team.ID = table_staff_details.team;
My problem is when I move through the records, if I change the selected value using the combo box it changes the actual value in the table from the one that was selected to the new one. If I was on record 1 and the teamid saved in there was 1 . It would display "team one" but if I changed that to "team two" it would change record one to say "team two" instead of "team one".I have been searching and found that this is because it is bound to the table so need to remove the text from Control Source, which when I do, breaks it, and it doesn't display the saved team.
what I would like it to do is display all the teams, but default to the one saved by using the id saved in the main table, but allow me to change this value. I would also like a second cascading combo box which will display a list of subteams dependent on what main team was selected and again, default to the values saved in the main table. I have managed to get cascading combo boxes working but combining them with my tables and queries is proving difficult. This is how my tables would be ( just showing the relevant fields)
Staff_table
ID Name teamID
1 Dave 1
2 Tom 1
3 Matt 2
team_table
ID team subteam
1 team1 subteam1
2 team1 subteam2
3 team1 subteam3
4 team2 subteam4
Is it is the subteams that will be unique I would like to save the subteam ID to the teamID field of the staff_table. that way i can retrieve the team and the subteam using the same ID.

I tried to get help elsewhere with this but it didn't quite work out, so I thought I'd pick a few other brains. So here's the problem from the beginning.
I made a table with three fields:
Field Name----Data Type
Category------Text
Item----------Text
Cost----------Number
I set up a form with two combo boxes and two text boxes. I want to pick an Item from the combo box, and have the Cost appear in the corresponding text box. I set up the combo box to show each field when I click on the arrow.
I was given the following code to put in the After Update section under the Event tab for the combo box:
Private Sub Combo8_AfterUpdate()
Me.Text2 = Me.Combo8.Column(2)
End Sub
That works. I pick an item from the combo box, and its value appears in the text box next to it. Ultimately, I want to edit the value in the text box and have it update the table. I was given the following code for the text box:
Private Sub MyTextbox_AfterUpdate()
Dim strSQL As String
strSQL = "UPDATE MyTable " & _
"SET Myfield = " & Me.MyTextbox & _
" WHERE Id = " & Me.MyCombo
CurrentDb.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError
End Sub
So far, that hasn't worked. I believe I've made the correct substitutions:
Private Sub Text2_AfterUpdate()
Dim strSQL As String
strSQL = "UPDATE [Primary Table] " & _
"SET Cost = " & Me.Text2 & _
" WHERE Id = " & Me.Combo8
CurrentDb.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError
End Sub
When I type a different value into the text box and hit enter, I get the following error:
Run-time error '3061':
Too few parameters. Expected 2.
I was given a different line of code in the event that I'm "trying to pass text":
" WHERE Id = '" & Me.Combo8 & "'"
When I use that, the error is the same except it says:
Too few parameters. Expected 1.
Does anyone know the correct code?

I have designed a form to act as a menu to open other forms. I created the form and placed command button on the form. Using the Access Wizard, the following VBA was created by Access to open the next form:
Private Sub cmdCCDolClr_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdCCDolClr_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "frmCCUS_Dollar_Clearing"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit_cmdCCDolClr_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdCCDolClr_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdCCDolClr_Click
End Sub
I have done this several times in the past with success. However, this time, I get the following error message when I click on the command button to open the second form.
The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: A problem occured while GCM (name of dB) was communicating with the OLE server or Active X Control.
*The expression may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a user-defined function, or [EVENT PROCEDURE].
*There may have been an error evaluating the function, event or macro.
I tested other forms that were designed to open secondary forms and they continue to act correctly. Is there an easy fix to this issue. There are 16 command buttons and all get this message. Do I have to delete the form and recreate it. A nusiance, but not difficult.
Looking forward to hearing from you experts out there.
Thanks, Alan

I'm creating a DB that includes a form that "Customers" will fill out. The form (CustomerForm) has text boxs that must be completed. I'm trying to figure out how to make sure all text boxes are filled out. I have already created a Input Mask and selected Required in the "Customer" Table. There is also a Username text box I would like to have validated that is is not already being used and two password text boxes I would like to have validate against one another to ensure it was created correctly. Once all text boxes are properly filled out I would like the Button to Save customer data, close CustomerForm and Open ShoppingCart. This is the code I have created:
Code:
Option Compare Database
Private Sub Log_In_Click()
If IsNull(Me.CustomerFName) Then
MsgBox "Please Enter First Name", vbInformation, "First Name Required"
Me.CustomerLName.SetFocus
[code]...

I have created a profiling form for my school. Each boy can access his form using his admission number ( Adno) which is the primary key. On the form are lots of sub forms - for things like favourite authors, clubs, teams played in etc - but these don't have a primary key ( as they are automatically linked to the Adno via the main form ). Unfortunately when several boys are filling in their own forms at the same time I keep getting error messages, one says that the data can't be updated and another says that there is a primary key problem.

I have a form with a subform in it. On the main form, I have a combo box with a list of program numbers to choose from. Once one is selected, the subform displays all the unpaid invoices under that program number. This part works fine. The problem occurs when I try to close the form, switch to design view, or scroll the subform to the right. Basically, the error message says that the record can't be saved because it would create a duplicate value in the index/primary key. However, this form is used to display information only. I have disabled the edit, delete and addition abilities, so I can't figure out why it thinks I am trying to change or add a new record. Any help would be appreciated.
I figured it might make things easier if I included a copy of the database, so here it is.
The form is called SETR, and the subform is AllInfo subform.

Hello there! This might not be the right section to post in but it's regarding tables. Basically I have some SQL statements that copy data to a new table, which is written in VBcode and operates on the click of a button.
Basically the only problem is the messages:
"You are about to paste # rows into a new table/table"
"The existing table <name> will be deleted before you run the query"
The kind of message depends on the way I organise the SQL (either using it to append data (as in INSERT INTO tablename SELECT blah blah) or overwrite (SELECT blah blah INTO tablename).
I'd rather use the latter because it facilitates the desired wiping of all previous data and replacing it with fresh records. However I don't want to have to click "yes" every time this is done? Is there some VBcode perhaps, like the On Err code that I could use to get access to not pop up these messages? :D

Does anybody know what this error message refers to?
"Reserved Error (-1517); there is no message for this error."
It just started happening today, and I haven't even made any changes to the database. It occurs when I hit a button I have to run a macro.
the macro does the following:
1) Shows all records
2) Requery
3) ApplyFilter.
The Where Condition for the filter is:
Right([tblContracts].[JobNum],4)=Right([Forms]![FrmContProc].[txtFindJobNum],4)
The weird thing is that it only occurs if the Form window is taller than 1/2 of my viewable area. If the Form window is 1/2 the viewable area or shorter, it works OK. This was running fine earlier today, but about 4:00 pm (03/31/06) this started happening.
If anybody knows what this error means, or how to get rid of it (I really need to use this window in full-screen) then please let me know.
-Thanks, Sean

How I would accomplish the following scenario in Access 2010. I have created a data base for a funeral home. One of my tables includes the date of death of the individual (DOD) (i.e. 04/16/2014). From that date I want to trigger a reminder to follow up with a family letter 6 months from that date. Would I do this with a macro or would I do this with VBA Script?

I manage a training database that tracks many different facets of an organization's training needs. One thing I would like to see is something that shows how many people will be in training on any given day. For example, I would like to see a range of dates printed down one column, and in the next column the number of people in training. I'm not sure how to best do this, so I'd appreciate any help or guidance.
To give you all a little background:
- Classes can last several months
- I would like to be able to create a class, including the class name and the date range of the class
- I would then like to be able to attach multiple people to the classes
- I would then like to be able to look at a report like I discussed above, that counts how many people are in any class on any given day
- I currently have a table for all of the people in my organization (keyed by HRID).
- I imagine a table for each class, including the Class Name and Date Range (would I have to do each date as a separate field??).
- The final table would include HRID and Class Name to link the two tables and "put people into a class."
I'm really struggling with how to handle the date range, particularly considering each class may go on for 60+ days. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thank you in advance!

I have attached a screen print of an error message I recieved on my access database. I finally got it to come up, but only after a few pop up boxes with this error message.
I do know the shared drive it is housed on went on the fritz. So I copied it and pasted it to my desk top. Grrr...I thought this message was due to the flipping shared drive. But now, I recieved it on my desk top too.
Anywho...can someone look at it and tell me what it means.
Thanks alot.
PS, i know my desktop has to much stuff, so don't go there. ;)
