Hi All
How do you assign a shortcut key to a command button.
I want to close a form with the command button - the button would have the words "Close Form" on it with an underline under the C.
If the user does the action eg: Ctrl E - the form will close.

Hi.
I am just setting up a command button so when it is pushed, outlook opens and I can send a message.
The code for this I got from another thread.
I am sure this is a simple one (?) but in the message of the email, I want numerous amounts of lines, not just the one.
This is the code for the message subject (taking from the thread)
strMessage = "Hello" & " " & Me.cboChampion.Column(1)
I want about 10 lines, not just the one. I tried copying the same line again, but that didn't work
I am sure this is basic coding....just can't find the answer.
Hope this makes sense.
Thanks.
Frank.

in a continius form when i will create a button it will be appeared continiously. how can i do this for split form in ms access
I know there is a Access Guru out there that could do this in a milisecond, but, this one has been kickin my backside all week...
I need to know how to create a shortcut button in a form to bring up the "Report Wizard" feature. Then after that button is created, I would like to be able to hide the structure of my database so that all the users can see is the switchboard. PLEASE give me some insight here if you can, the first correct reply gets free fries with thier next order...
I am using access 2010 and I created couple of buttons on my forms that do some stuff in vba, but beside triger them with mouse I would also like my users to be able to have shortcuts on keyboard so for example I have btnClose an I widh when user press ALT + that btnClose do the same thing as it is doing when you press mouse on it.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a database that had some code that enabled the user to click a button and it would take information from one Access query or table and paste it into specific locations in Excel. This is important because the last worksheet has specific formatting in place.
If it didn't, I'd just use the transfer spreadsheet option and not even bother opening Excel at all with code.
I've got it working well except for the last part. The last query being copied has eight records and only one is being sent to Excel. Same code as the other queries where all of their data is going to the right spot in Excel with the right number of records.
Private Sub AM_Top_25_Click()
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.OpenQuery "delete_ShortPartItems", acNormal, acEdit
DoCmd.OpenQuery "append_to_Short_Part_Items", acNormal, acEdit

I have a database for my business, which lists clients details. Within this, I have a query that runs off receipts (one customer, many receipts), as I run a private school and people pay me monthly. I use this query to run off a Mail Merge letter within Word, but it's difficult, having to close the db and open a Word document and then relink it.
Is there any way that some coding could be used within the db so that I can add a button and just print out that record into a mail merge document?
Hello,
I have been trying to find the symbol or text to force a new line on a command button in a Access Form and have not had any luck. I have the command button pretty large and want 2 lines in the button. If anyone knows how to do this that would be great. Thank you very much !!!
Hi,
I'm designing a database in which the primary key is a combination of the first letter of first name, the first letter of last name and the date of birth.
How can I do that?

How can I add a new line of record below a previous record after pressing the add button? I have attached a picture of my project.
View 3 Replies View Relatedok here is what i want.. imagine a search box, just an empty text box that allows the user to type things into it...
there will be a simple table from the database behind it, here is the typical structure of a record
<Country>Poland
<Price1>60
<Price2>85
<Price3>95
in this table there will be say a 1000 of these records...
my user is going to have to quickly search through these records while on the phone to a customer, and quote one of the relevant prices associated with that country
what i would like is this most convenient system..
as the user types in the letter 'P' just below all the records with countries that begin with 'P' are displayed (with a scroll down arrow if needed)..as well as the 3 relevant prices with that record
if they then type an 'O' into the box (which will now hold 'Po') all the records with countries beginin with 'Po' will be displayed (eg Poland)
if they delete the 'o'. once again the displayed records below the box will return to just the countries begginin with 'p'
all that is needed is for the records to be displayed, thats it.. but the adding and deleting of the letters within the text search box will need to instantly manipulate this list..
i have posted on other forums, and have been told this can be acheived in access, is it hard?
Here's the statement
Code:
sqlfinal = "SELECT Employees.ID, Employees.Name "
sqlfinal = sqlfinal & "FROM ((qryDeptVBA INNER JOIN qrySkillVBA ON qryDeptVBA.ID = qrySkillVBA.ID) "
sqlfinal = sqlfinal & "INNER JOIN Employees ON qryDeptVBA.ID = Employees.ID) "
sqlfinal = sqlfinal & "INNER JOIN qryAreaVBA ON Employees.ID = qryAreaVBA.EmpID "
sqlfinal = sqlfinal & "GROUP BY Employees.ID, Employees.Name;"
If i simply remove the GROUP BY line and stick the semicolon at the end of the previous line (.EmpID; ) it works just fine. How is adding a group by line causing an error?I tried adding another parenthes at the beginning ((( and ending the joins as EmpID); and that failed with the exact same error.
I have a main form with 3 sub forms. The main form is tied to a table called QUOTES_MASTER. The first sub form is tied to a table called QUOTE_ LINE_ ITEMS_DIRTGLUE. It calculates the subtotal when selecting items. The relationship is one-to-many linked on QUOTE_ID.
The second sub form adds up total of all line items and is not tied to a table.The third sub form adds ESTIMATED FREIGHT to the PRODUCT TOTAL and is not tied to a table. how to get the values from the line items form inserted into the QUOTE_LINE_ITEMS_DIRTGLUE table as they are added.
I also want to insert the total value from ESTIMATED DELIVERED into the LINE_TOTALS field in the table QUOTES_MASTER.I tried this code on the product total sub form but it doesn't do anything and there are no errors:
Private Sub PROD_SUB_AfterUpdate()
DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE QUOTE_LINE_ITEMS_DIRTGLUE SET QUOTE_LINE_ITEMS_DIRTGLUE.SUBTOTAL = Me.PROD_SUB WHERE QUOTES_MASTER.QUOTE_ID = " & Me.QUOTE_ID
I have a module which reads a CSV transaction file line by line and adds the correct transactions to an access table and places the wrong ones in a logfile.Now some transactions are rejected twice there is even one rejected six times. Whereas one wrong transaction is processed only once. I am certainly overlooking something obvious in the logic but what. Here is the relevant code.
Code:
Function ImportCSVForConfederation(inputCSV, ORG)
Dim TNO As Integer, TACT As Integer, TABLE As String, TLINE As String, I As Integer, J As Integer, K As Integer
Dim FLD1 As String, FLD2 As String, FLD3 As String, FLD4 As String, LogFile As String, LogPath As String
Dim Lim As String, ITNO As Integer

I am having a little difficulty with my importing in Access. Every time I import my text file, the lines will be jumbled. I have been reading up and I found this recordset code that seems to be what I need:
Code:
Dim strLine As String
Dim intLineNum As Integer
Dim MyDB As DAO.Database
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Open "C:TestTest.txt" For Input As #1
Set MyDB = CurrentDb
Set rst = MyDB.OpenRecordset("tblResults", dbOpenDynaset)
CurrentDb.Execute "DELETE * FROM tblResults", dbFailOnError 'Clear tblResults
[code]....
Basically, this code will extract data from the text file as long as it fulfills the Mid$ criteria. Here's where my problem comes. Each line in my text file is of different lengths and I have to capture the entire line.
I think using the Left$ function would work, but I don't know how to determine the character count such that the entire line of text would be inserted into the table.
Another difference between what I need and the code above is that, I am required to store each line into each row of my table, meaning
Line 1 is placed in Row 1 Column 1
Line 2 is placed in Row 2 Column 1
Line 3 is placed in Row 3 Column 1
.
.
.
Line X is placed in Row X Column 1.
I can change multiple things on a line graph with VBA.
Me.Graph47.chartType = GraphType ' take 65 for line
with me.graph47
.SeriesCollection(1).border.Color = vbblue ' change the line color
.SeriesCollection(1).border.Weight = LineWeight ' change the line weight to for example 3
.SeriesCollection(2).MarkerSize = MarkerWeight ' Change the marker weight, for example 4
.SeriesCollection(2).MarkerBackgroundColor = vbblue ' Change the marker color,
.SeriesCollection(2).axisgroup = 2 ' put this series on the secondary axis
end with
SeriesColection(1) is line with markers. This is correct.But now I want the seriescollection(2) without line, so only the markers. I cheched the MSDN site from Microsoft. The Excel trick with the macro does not work for me.how to hide the line with VBA for only SeriesCollection(2) in Access?
I dont know hot to say this but lets try :rolleyes:
I have about 8 forms each form with a table behind it or a query, so the user starts at the first form selecting this and that, after the selection a button is pressed another form opens the user fills out the information and presses a button and another form opens and so on until all the information have been filled.
My problom is that I want this to be only one window (form), and when the button is pressed this form changes to next window and so on.
Now it works like when the button is pressed a new windows opens and this window (form). The user can see this as a another form I want the first form to change into the second and the second to third and so on.
Hopefully someone understands what I am trying to say.
Best regards

View 1 Replies View Relatedsoooo now my client wants the program i just wrote on his brand new server that he doesn't know how to use. i've semi-split my db (i kept my lookup tables with the program to save room for data). i'm not very familiar w/networking. my assumption is that i just put the BE on the server and put the FE on their machines, but i was wondering if i could put both the FE and the BE on the server with a shortcut to the FE so that i could update it and not have to worry about making sure everyone has the most recent copy.
anyone have any suggestions on how to make this run smoothly and make it appear as though i have some semblance of what i'm supposed to be doing?

hello,
Here is my problem: i need from access or vb to run a non-window application,this application (in buisness basic) is generally run with an Icon on desktop, and needs to be associated with a text file wich contains path and other parameters to be executed, i tried with shell command but it does'nt work.
In the shortcut (right click on icon appli) properties there is the target information and an other info to select path start application (called 'demarrer en' in french ,see image ), but i don't know how it is called in english, and i think this info is missing in my shell command, so the question is :
How to give this info in shell command ?
Or is it possible to run directly shortcut (lnk file) with VB ?
Sorry for my english.
Thanks in advance for help.

I'm making a shortcut to a report in my database. I'd like to place the shortcut to the report onto my desktop.
The problem is I'm running both access2000 and access97. Even tho I've told the computer to open all access programs in access97, when I go to open that shortcut to the report it opens in access2000.
How do I go about getting the report shortcut to open with access97 as well?
(I do need to keep access2000 for some rare files)
Thanks for any suggestions
I have created a desktop shortcut to access the network DB - but it does not work. Even finding the target database on the Network Places and double clicking to invoike Access does not work. The only way I can open the DB at present is to open Access first/ then select the DB file from the File/Open menu ....

I have created an Access DB for personal use and I am willing to sort the queries in folders. I haven't found a way to do this, is it actually possible?
Having 40 queries all inside the database window is not so convinient...
