I have 2 Option buttons that I want to use to control a combo box. If I select Option1 then I want it to pull from one table for the drop-down choices. If I select Option2 I want it to pull from a different table. The Option buttons and combo box are all on the same form.
I'm very good with utilizing the access tools however I can only code in vb editor minimally. What I'm looking to do is have the option buttons control two combo boxes. One to search by user name and the other to search by serial #. I've created an option group with two buttons I set the default values in the combo boxes in accordance with the option buttons However, the option buttons aren't doing what they are supposed to do. I've been told I need to tweak the code for the buttons in order to make them control the combo boxes. Does anybody know what I need to do to make this happen? Ultimately the user will be able to click either of the buttons to perform a search through a single combo box.
Thanks to everyone out there for making this possible. Your expert knowledge will help me grow into an expert myself.
This frame controls an option group. If they are in an existing citation and want to start one for another type, this offers to write a new record in when they try to switch. Problem is, if it DOES write the new record, it seems to be saving the old record, and thus both will end up 56, for example. Access seems to be ignoring/overwriting the Me.frameCitationType.Undo (I don't want to use Me.Undo because they may have made other changes as well).
If the user does not spawn the new citation, it undoes fine. I suspect the problem may be the Filter/FilterOn?
Code: Private Sub frameCitationType_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) Dim chap As Integer Dim othercit As Variant Dim curRecord As DAO.Recordset Dim curDefend As DAO.Recordset If Me.NewRecord = True And IsNull(Me.CaseNumber) Then MsgBox "Enter the Service Order and Increment first, please.", vbExclamation
I need to pass a criteria to a query from my option group control to my query.
It contains three options 1,2 and 3.
If option 3 then Pricing Type 1 and 2
How do I make the code below working?
IIf([Forms]![FrmUserSelection]![PricingType] Like 3,([dbo_AGPricingDiscounts].[PricingType])="2" Or ([dbo_AGPricingDiscounts].[PricingType])="1",",[Forms]![FrmUserSelection]![PricingType]")
I'm building a workCube reservation system and I've been tasked to have it work kind of like an airplane seat reservation system. I've laid out my form with option buttons representing the location of each available space. (space1, space2, space3...space16)
My desired outcome is to be able to select a date from a calendar popup and have the options buttons react to that date if they have been reserved. (change color and indicate "reserved").I've tried to create the form based on a query which represents the "booked" table.
Tables:
Employee (k)empID emplyeeName
Space (k)spaceID space
Booked (k)spaceID (k)empID (k)bookdate
Some rules a space can be booked by any ONE employee on any day.How can I get any and all of the option buttons to react if there is a reservation in place on the day indicated by the calendar?
I have table that I had to add a new field to which we update with a form. I tried to add a control for the new field but the field does not show up in the list for the control source. I am trying to add a list box to the form with a blank and 5 options.
I have attached screen shots of the table design and the form. The table has the field in datasheet view and I have manually entered a few entries in it but it still will not show in the control source for the form control. The top section of the form is where we enter and select the data for the new records. The bottom section (circled in red) autofills the matching record, from separate tables, for updating with the new entries.
I have added form controls for modified fields in the past so I am confused about why this is happening.
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
I have a rather annoying and frustrating problem which I cannot find a solution for through searching the forum.
The situation is that I have a parent form with 1 unbound subform, the source of which is determined by the part number selected in the parent form (diffetrent parts have different fields of the source table displayed)
This all functions perfectly well in all but one case which is when the source of the subform is a form with an option group.
There is only 1 form like this, and the problem I have is that when tabbing through the fields, as soon as I tab into the option group the parent form disappears, and I am left with just the subform on screen! Clicking into the group is fine, just tabbing to it causes the problem, and if I remove the option group then tabbing through all the rest of the fields is fine...
I could powssibly change the option group for a set of option buttons and code them to function a bit like an option group, but this would mean changing the code for numerous reports etc. and I don't really want to do that if I can help it.
I have set up a Form to report Client acitivity by department Code for a given month. Users have the option within the form of selecting a Department Code.
These department codes are derived from a department Code Table and set accordingly within my Row Source properties.
If I wanted to select multiple departments for a particular report. how can i allow for wildcard entries i.e if several department code begin with letters OD*?
I have a form based on a query that has 16 options for values in one of the fields. I wanted to put an option button for each value on a form that would allow the user to view the records based on which option buttons were selected and have the form update accordingly.
The way I've gone about it is to have some code in the after_update event thingimy of each option button that updates a boolean value in a table that's linked to the underlying query the form is based on - but this just seems a long way to go about this... plus it's not working...
I've searched the archives for clues on this but haven't come up with anything. So I just wondered, is there a better way than what I'm doing. I'm not after somebody to do this for me, just point me in the right direction.
tblProducts "categories" requires the IDNumbers of the categories in tblCategories - there are mutiple IDNumbers for each product, and they need to be seperated by a comma - for example ProductA has categoryIDs 1,3,6 (where categories 1,3,6 and called A,C,F)
At the moment, I am having to manually look up what each categoryID number is by CategoryName, and then type it in the tblProducts category field.
I want to have a form which provides the tblProduct "Name" and then a long list of all the tblCategory "Name" contents as option (or tick) boxes. So all cateory Names listed.
Then when I tick mutiple boxes on this form for the categories, it populates the tblProduct "Categories" field with the tblCategories "IDNumber" codes, with a comma between each one! (so the names chosen actually populates with the ID number)
So basically if on my form, ProductA has category A,C,F ticked -- so the field tblProduct "Categories" is "1,3,6" (where 1,3,6 are the category IDNumbers and A,C,F are category names)
In other words, I want to be able to choose the categories for my products by choosing the Category Name (rather than ID) but having the ID populated into the relevant field -- I can do this with a combo box displaying a different field to that thats populated....but this only allows one selection....
I want mutiple categories to be chosen (via the form with option/tix boxes), and thus to populate the relevant field with commas seperating.
Hello, I have a form named Welcome which I want to use as search menu for my database. I have added 4 option buttons and a unique textbox into which users will write their query criteria. My database has 4 queries and each option button should refer to one of them once selected
Obviously I will need a command button that will run the query.
How to create a Web Form and include an option group (5 or 6 radio or check boxes)? I really need the page to layout all of the options (not in a drop down). This will allow users compare answers on the fly looking at the form.
I have a form with an option group. Within the option group I have a series of queries (all records, closed records, open records, etc.) to sort the data. Everything works fine.
My issue is a cosmetic one. When I change the query via running a report versus the option group, the option group doesn't reflect the correct status (e.g., I run a report for all closed records but the option group still shows All Records). In my VBA, is there a line I can write to change the option group appearance from All to Closed, without clicking on the option group itself?
I'm creating an employee survey database and I'm using option groups for collecting general information such as office, department, etc. My question is can I make it a requirement for them to answer an option group before moving on to other questions? I'm trying to control and track how many employees have taken the survey. Right now I can skip these general information questions and just go into the survey questions so I'm trying to prevent that. Also in the same train of thought is it possible to not save any incomplete surveys? Say I have 50 questions and someone starts the survey but only answers 10 questions and then exits for whatever reason. I would like that record to be deleted so it does not count. If I allow incomplete surveys then I can get skewed numbers.
I have a form where the users need to update an option group when they enter any information on the form.
The problem is that the users don't always update this option group.
The option group does not have a default value and has only two options.
When the user updates a form they need to choose a value.
One problem though, they may have to go in and update the form later and this action may cause them to change the option selected within the group.
Is there code I can use to alert them to first update the option group when updating the form and second to change the value within the option group when they need to.
Option Group --- Incomplete and Complete Date Resolved can trigger the Complete option to be updated
I am seriously thinking we should make Incomplete the default value and then I would only need code for changing the option group from Incomplete to Complete.
However, Management wants the Option Group so we can run a report that lists all of the Incomplete and Null values within it.
I am doing a worksheet for college and have been asked to create option groups on a form, but I cannot work out how to do this.
The screenshot shows what I have to do but I cannot get the option group wizard to open.
When creating my form based on the design in the screenshot I dragged the Rate field onto the design view sheet but it has only one option button connected to it, I need to add another one that will be connected to the same field and am not sure how to do it. I did try adding another option button from the control bar but I am not sure if is connected to the same field with the correct yes/no properties.
I have a form that has several drop down menus on it. I use the form to filter the database to only the options that are put into the drop down windows. I have it set up so that every window does not need to be filled in for the filter to work. Now I am trying to figure out how to put the option of a date range on my form as well. The code that I am using to make everything up to the date range work is.
I have a continuous form. On which I have a frame and three option boxes with values 1, 2 and 3 what I am trying to do if one record is selected in option box other text boxes of the same record turn red I am using this code which works perfectly expect that it's doing for all records. I want that particular record to turn red.
Code: Private Sub Form_current() FormatGroup End Sub ' Private Sub Frame53_Click() FormatGroup
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've a form to create new customers accounts. The form has a drop-down control listing the cities in the "cities" table. This drop-down control has a hidden column (id) and a visible column (city_name). The user can choose a citie from the list and the city id (1st column in the drop-down list) will be stored in the "city_id" field in the "customers" table.
Problem:
I need to allow users to enter cities not listed in the drop-down control. When they entrer a new city, I need to create a new record in "cities" table for the new city.
I tried opening a dialog using the NotInList event, and the dialog pops up as espected, but also pops up an ugly msgbox wich says that the typed text isn't a listed item.
I have a query that i need to run from a form. From form I need to pass criteria
1 for canada 2 for us 1 and 2 for us and Canada
The criteria needs to go into field Pricing Type. If user selects 1 then only Pricing Type 1 will display. If user selects 2 than only Pricing Type 2 should display. I user selects both , Pricing Type 1 and 2 should be listed.
