Hi,
In the subform i have the layout i want with the text boxes and so on.
Now i have that in the main form the sub form is fairly big, but the problem i get is the subform only displays 1 record at a time. Is there a way i can get the subform to display all the records and for it just to add a verticle scroll bar.
So it is a list effect.
Thanks

Hi all,
I am not sure how to search the forum for info on this issue as I don't know the key words (Lingo) that would be used, so I decided to just ask...
I have a table called tblProducts with a one to many relationship with a table called tblTransactions.
I also have a paper form, much like a grocery list, that has known types of products to purchased on the top have and the bottom half has blank line to enter products purchased that are not listed above (or are unknown). The list is much larger and takes up more than one sheet of paper, but is done on a weekly basis. Here is a short "Grocery list" style example:
Date:_________
.
Description....Qty...........Description...Qty
Ice Cream:....................Milk:
....Vanilla......___Gal...........Whole......___Ga l.
....Chocolate..___Gal...........2%.........___Gal.
.......................................Nonfat...._ __Gal.
Bananas........___Ea.
..................................Meat:
Bread:..............................Pork.......___ lb.
..White.......___Loafs..........Beef.......___lb.
..Wheat......___Loafs..........Chicken....___lb.
.
----------------------------------------------------
____________ ___ ___........____________ ___ ___
____________ ___ ___........____________ ___ ___
____________ ___ ___........____________ ___ ___
____________ ___ ___........____________ ___ ___
.
I want to create a form that you can enter data into exactly like this and have the data find the product in tblProducts and then create a new transaction for that product in tblTransactions. If the product is new, then it would create a new product and the transaction. The date also has to be entered into each transaction, and most times the data is entered weeks after the paper is filled out, so using "today's" date won't work, it has to read it from the entered data.
Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. I haven't been able to find anyone else doing this, but then I may not be searching with the right key words, as I don't know what you call this type of data entry.
Thank you.

I would like to create a "wizard style" interface to allow users to Select items (staff members) by moving them from a list of "available" staff to a list of "selected" staff (and back again if they change their minds :rolleyes: ). - e.g. Like the Report Wizard, where you move table/query fields between the "Available Fields" and "Selected Fields" lists.
Does anyone have anything to help me out with this, that they could "lend" me ?
Of course I am stuck using AC97.... so I may need to borrow a hammer and chisel as well :D
In my current database there seems to be two different types of borders in my pop-up forms! The best way to explain it is that some forms will have the Access style border while others have the glass style border that you see in windows. I can't seem to find any settings that will change this or even determine what causes it.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am currently creating a database to link together a maintenance system and a conditional reporting system and I’ve run into a little problem.
I am trying to create a form for assigning skills to a given contractor (contractor selected via a combo box (cboContractor)) by transferring selected items from a list box on the left (lstAvailable) to a list box on the right (lstselected). (much like any windows wizard would) This is done through the 4 buttons cmdSelect, cmdSelectAll, cmdDeselect, cmdDeselectAll.
Now it has been a long time since I have had to work with VB and I am struggling a little to create the required coding to pass data from one listbox to the other.
For reference:
CboContractor takes information from tblContractor. The data is ContID and ContName and the bound column is 1.
LstAvailable takes information from tblSkills. The data is SkillID, SkillComm and SkillNotes. Bound column is 1
LstSelected will place data into tblcontskills.
Tblcontskills has the fields, tcsID, ContID, SkillID
Can anyone help or does anyone know where I can find some good examples on the net as I have browsed through the search pages here and not really found a great deal that is valid
Thankyou in advance for your help everyone
I have created a master form, which is a tab style. I have five additional forms that I want to use as sub-forms within each tab. I also want to include master navigation buttons that will work for each sub-form in unison. In other words if I navigate to record 10 on tab 1 and switch to tab 2, I want the new tab to show the information related to record 10. It would appear that I need to link them together in some fashion.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a subform within a main from which switches by entry. The subform is a datasheet. I have two dropdowns in the datasheet and I want to limit one off of the other. I keep getting a prompt. The prompt is Forms!CLTS Subform!Environment. To my understanding it looks like it can't find Environment. Does anyone know the proper format.
This is my code for the second drop down in the subform.
Also special note Environment is what I am referencing to and it also is in the subform.
SELECT PackageName.PackageNameID, PackageName.PackageName, PackageName.EnvironmentID
FROM PackageName
WHERE (((PackageName.EnvironmentID)=[Forms]![CLTS Subform]![Environment]))
ORDER BY PackageName.PackageName;
I just wanted to ask how to change the msgbox style, for example, put a Critical or Information picture on the side of the message box
Thanx in advance

I need a help.
I would like to (if possible) to place into Form an object that could create a Tree-like menu structure. The source from this object should be table/query.
Is this possible?

How do I copy a form from one database that have reports and quaries linked to it to another so that I can change the information in the new database and keep the form style in the old database?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi There,
I want to synchronize 2 comboboxes (actually 3, but let's start with 2)
On a form I have 2 comboboxes:
- CompanyType (FK fkCompanyTypeID in table Contacts)
- Category (FK fkCompanyCategoryID in table Contacts)
Let's say we have companytype CT1 until CT10.
For CT1, CT2 & CT3 I want to choose a catagory, so the combobox must be 'enabled'.
For CT4 until CT10 the Catagory combobox must be disabled, so that I cannot choose a category value.
Actually I want to choose 2 catgories (2 comboboxes) for CT1 until CT3.
But I think that an explanation for the example above is sufficient for me.
Both comboboxes are filled by a Select Query, and the values are filled in a separate table. (Table CompanyType (PK pkCompanyTypeID) & Table CompanyCategory (PK pkCompanyCategoryID)).
Can someone please help me on this issue? :confused:
Thanks in advance for your reply,

I have the folloowing tables in the database
tblCD/Main: CdID - autonumber, CDName - text ...anything else will be a lookup field that we will get from another table, so we will come back to this table
tblAuthorType - AuthorTypeID - autonumber, AuthorTypeName - text. author type name will have, as I see it, 3 types : Composer, Group, Artist.
tblAuthorName - AuthorNameID - autonumber, AuthorName - text, - the name of all authors, composers and artists that u will pick from later
When I select Author which can be a cdgroup which is fine it will display those cd's related to the cdname. Such as Author TypeName Composer, Group. Artist.
tblTrackNumber - -Name of Song TrackNumID - autonumber, TrackNum
I have a subform and I want it to go to the tbktrack number with Name of Song related to that CD after I select an Author from the list box.
I am fairly new to this I need the vb codes for modification

I set up these tables so then the relationships will refer back to them.
I've finally figured out how to populate my list box with radio buttons (3 companys listed on the radio buttons, you click one and employees for that particular company populates the list box). Now I'm trying to figure out how to click on an employee in that box and have their contact information populate the subform that holds that info.
After trying unsuccesfully with VB, I considered using a macro that would open the subform where the Last Name = the Last Name clicked in the list box, but I couldn't figure that out (couldn't figure out what the name would be for the selection in the list box) but I would prefer the subform be there permanantly in "add" mode untill a selection is made in the list box.
I'm code ignorant and rely on google and what books I have for reference / copy-past.....any ideas?

I have a private sub on a subform called txtsearchstring_change.
The txtsearchstring box is = to the client_id on the main form.
Basically when the user clicks on the next record button (which is on the main form) it should update the txtsearchstring_change on the subform and then display the new results in the list box.
Im not to sure how to do this. I understand im calling a sub from another form, so i did try a public not a private sub. And i have added on the next and previous button - txtsearchstring_change.
Thanks for any help.
Hi
how do i click on my data in a list box (4 fields unbound)) on my (main form) so that it goes straight to my subform fields (same 4 fields from the list box), this will save me on data entry and i can just enter my quantity and it will calculate a total for me.
i don't want a combo box in my field on the subform.
any solution??
I am having the same problem as some others.
I have 2 cascade combo boxes
When I select CD Group and CD NAme they display the related values in a list box that's fine.
ex. CD Group Mormon Tabernacle Chior
CD Name displays cdnames with that Group.
NOW After I click cdnames I want it to go to that record on the subform which is cdtracks so it only displays cdtracks with that record.
The other problem is this might have to be straightened out is when I select a cdgroup and or cdname value it displays that value for all the records.

Hello all - Working on a form that is supposed to display order approval information. In the database I'm working with, people are stored as in the approvals table by a reference to an autonumbered value. However, I want to display their name, which can be obtained normally through an SQL or DLookUp Command. This tabular form style though is giving me a problem. If I put new textboxes on the form and load it as I normally would, like:
ApprovalName.Value = DLookup ("[UserName]", "Users", "Users.UserID =" str(ApprovalID.Value*))
*ApprovalID is a hidden textbox that stores the number that is used to represent a particular user.
The problem becomes that using an OnLoad or and OnCurrent Form function, the boxes only load one value. I want them to load the different values for the different entries, but I am lost as to how to do this. Any help would be appreciated.
A similar issue that I've been having with reports is that I don't know how I would do this at all... I want to do the same thing (retrieve the Name or whatever that is related to a numerical value) and put it on the report. I'd appreciate any info on how to do this.
Thanks
