Queries :: Dialog Box Caption - Enter Parameter Value
Dec 15, 2014I have a query that I use a like statement. How do I change the Header to something beside "Enter Parameter Value"?
View RepliesI have a query that I use a like statement. How do I change the Header to something beside "Enter Parameter Value"?
View RepliesCan I open a "Enter Parameter Value" dialog box to capture and use the input without running a query?
something like
Code:
ParaBox ("Enter the Hostname", vbEntParameterVal, "Hostname Required")
or
Code:
Set pDialog = Application.ParaValueDialog(mso?????)
I need a short string input from the users at application load, and I'd like to use the "Enter Parameter Value" dialog.I'm about to build a workaround that will invoke a SQL statement to save the entry to a temp table, but it'd be nice if I could just call up that dialog box and store the entry as a VBA variable.
I am having a problem updating a record on a table called BookInTable . The field I want to update is called Engineer and the record is found using the field Barcode. I have a form with 2 text boxes BarTxt and EngTxt as well as a button called SaveBtn. on the OnClick event of the SaveBtn I put the following code
Code:
Private Sub SaveBtn_Click()
If IsNull(Me![BarTxt]) Or (Me![BarTxt]) = "" Then
MsgBox "Please enter a value!", vbOKOnly, "Invalid Search Criterion!"
Me![BarTxt].SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
DoCmd.RunSQL "Update BookInTable SET Engineer = " & Me!EngTxt & " WHERE BarCode ='" & Me![BarTxt] & "'"
End Sub
But this is bringing up the enter Parameter value dialog box for whatever I type into EngTxt. If I enter text into that box and then click okay it then updates to the record. how can I stop the from enter Parameter value dialog box appearing?
I have a crosstab queries which uses the date query parameters. However, when I go to my Export command (code is below), it ask me to enter the date parameters (start date and end date) twice. What do I have to do so that the system will ask me to enter once only?
Code:
On Error GoTo Err_cmdTest_Click
'Must 1st set a Reference to the Microsoft Office XX.X Object Library
Dim dlgOpen As FileDialog
Dim strExportPath As String
Const conOBJECT_TO_EXPORT As String = "qryEXPORT"
[Code] .....
Every time I run a query that I have created it asks me to input Expr1 and Expr2 in an enter perameter value pop up box. I don't enter anything, just click okay and the query runs as expected.
Is there a way to get rid of these? (and maybe more importantly, why do they appear?)
I have created a db with 10 linked tables from 10 db's.
I then build 10 queries associated to these linked tables.
The 10 queries filter data by start date and end date.
The data generated from each query is then exported to excel (each query has its own sheet in the woorkbook).
Dim Output_Path_And_File As String
Output_Path_And_File = "C:" & "Production Labor hrs Querie.xls"
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, 8, "labor hrs 3-WAY", Output_Path_And_File, False, ""
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, 8, "labor hrs-ACV", Output_Path_And_File, False, ""
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, 8, "labor hrs-EAP", Output_Path_And_File, False, ""
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, 8, "labor hrs-EVMV", Output_Path_And_File, False, ""
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, 8, "labor hrs-PFE", Output_Path_And_File, False, ""
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, 8, "labor hrs-propor", Output_Path_And_File, False, ""
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, 8, "labor hrs-SEGR", Output_Path_And_File, False, ""
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, 8, "labor hrs-TBO", Output_Path_And_File, False, ""
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, 8, "labor hrs-VCA", Output_Path_And_File, False, ""
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, 8, "labor hrs-VFS", Output_Path_And_File, False, ""
How can I set these queries up by typing the start date and end date only once rather than 10 times?
Thank you
I am trying to mail merge from word 2013 to a query in access 2013. I initially had problems displaying the query until I came across a solution regarding connecting via DDE. I can now link to the query but it then asks me to 'enter parameter values' from the query. I have already run these values into the query via a form which ends up in a report. (incidentally I have left the report open). If I manually enter these parameters it works fine.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI cannot sort below query in descending order by absolute value. If I do not use sort, all works fine but as soon as I try to sort by absolute value I get message to 'Enter Parameter Value'. I tried to replace Abs([Variance (W2 - W1)]) with filed name AbsoluteValue and still the same result ;(
Code:
SELECT [Query Union].[Stock Code] AS SKU, [Query Union].[Pallet No] AS [Pallet No], [Query Union].[Batch No#] AS Batch, IIf(IsNull([qW1 SOH].[Physical stock]),0,CDbl([qW1 SOH].[Physical stock])) AS [W1 Qty], IIf(IsNull([W2 SOH].[Good Stock]),0,CDbl([W2 SOH].[Good Stock])) AS [W2 Qty], [W2 Qty]-[W1 Qty] AS [Variance (W2 - W1)], Abs([Variance (W2 - W1)]) AS AbsoluteValue

I have a list (table) that I've created in sharepoint 2010.I link to the sharepoint table with Access 2010 to update mass amounts of items at once. Some of the queries have no problem updating the sharepoint items, but other queries require me to "Enter Paramater Value."
In this particular queries; I'm trying to populate field A with dates from field B, when field A is null.
---------------------
UPDATE Table 1 SET Table.[FieldA] = [FieldB]
WHERE (((Table 1.[FieldA]) Is Null));
--------------------
When I run the above, I receive the "Enter Parameter Value" input box.All records have Field B populated (it's actually the created date.)
The goal is for field A to be populated with the values in Field B, without the query asking for parameters.
Note; I can go in each individual record and update them via access, one at a time. But it's the running of the update query that failing.
Edit: Removed spaces in table and field names.
I have table which store set of number
table: parameter
field: Branch
550
660
770
880
I want to use enter query criteria so that it can filter all record from parameter table, How can I do? or any VBA code can serve same purpose?
Hello,
I have an innoccuous problem with a report I run in Access. The record source for the report is a query that is pulls data from 6 tables. I have a table titled ARInfo that I have to return amost all the fields in the table (big table) so I used * and show all the fields. When I run the report from the button click event on my form, before the query runs that servers as the report's record source, a parameter dialog box pops up titled ARInfo (table name). You do not have to enter anything in the box for the report to run properly. I have only been with the company or 3 months, but we have used Aceess 97 and Access 2000 in the past and it is my understanding that in the old systems, this dialog would not pop up (The query, form, report, and code is unchanged0. Since we converted to Access 2002, this dialog pops up. The code behind the form, report, and in the associated modules is very immense (This report and form that drives it touches many diferent pieces of the system) so I'm not really about to inclued any code in this post. If anybody knows a quick and dirty trick to disable dialogs or any conceptual theories as to why this is occuring, please let me know.

I have a form and it is related with a query and by clicking ok I got the required results in Access 97. But now I have converted to Access 2002 and whenever i enter values in the form and click ok I get a Dialog Box "Enter Dialog Box". I read MKB article but it did not help me at all. Please help me out I am not getting any idea at all to solve this problem?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have searched other threads and cannot find one that helps solve my problem. So, I hope someone can help.
I have a query which runs ok until it is filtered. I have tried using criteria to filter the info I need but this returns an 'Enter Parameter Value' message. Running the query without using criteria works okay but using a filter in the report itself returns a 'Data Mismatch' message.
The report filters fine on fields until it gets to one that has been changed from text to number. It also includes an Nz formula. The formula in the is field is: CLng(Nz([order_no],0)). Other fields related to this also appear to be affected.
I need the CLng formula as the field is needed to calculate other fields using a zero instead of a null which would otherwise cause an error. I was given the formula on this forum yesterday, (thanks Bob Larson and AlanJ10), which was great in solving the other issue but is this is what is affecting filtering, (ie. a confusion between text and number?!?!) I have also tried converting the result of the calculation I want to filter back into text using CStr but this does not make any difference.
I have checked the field names and also renamed fields that were 'Expr' (as in default names for calculated fields), and cannot see any problems.
Thanks
I have a query and one of the fields/headings i have it create is a "cost" total where it does a dlookup from a defaults table.
I then have a "listprice" which is antoher field in the querry of which the data table sits.
I want to take the [listprice] and minus the [cost] without re-creating the dlookup function...
I need this to help with an APR calulction using the RATE function which if i have it do all the dlookups it says I have exceeded the limitiation and will be trumcated. So if i use the name [cost] it works but i have to hit enter because it says "Enter Parameter Value".
Any ideas how to get around this?
Thank you.
I have the following query that gives me this halt. If I enter without responding to it it opens in Datasheet view as intended. It wants me to enter Query2.EmpID. This is my SQL statement.
SELECT qryPolicyByDriverName.CWSPolicy, qryPolicyByDriverName.EmpID, qryPolicyByDriverName.DriverName
FROM tblTrainingPoliciesNotCoveredDrivers INNER JOIN qryPolicyByDriverName ON tblTrainingPoliciesNotCoveredDrivers.CWSPolicy = qryPolicyByDriverName.CWSPolicy;
I don't know why this is happening. Thanks for looking at my problem.
ok im am not sure if this is in the right place but it seems to be a form problem.
i have a form that has a textbox(text1) which is used to enter a supplier name, the user then presses enter and another form opens up with all the supplier details.ok.
the code i have to do this is on the afterupdate of text1 which is unbound is
DoCmd.openform"SupplierDetails",,,"[Supplier Name]=" & Supplier name
when i use this code and the enter key is pressed an `Enter Parameter Value` dialog box appears with the supplier name under the blue title bar.if i then enter the supplier name again it opens the second form and displays all the details i want.
If i use the code
DoCmd.openform"SupplierDetails",,,"[Supplier Name]"= me.Supplier_name
it opens up the second form without the dialog box but it doesnt display any details.
is ther any way to adjust the first code so the dialog box isnt displayed and just goes straight to the second form and displaying the details.
i have gone through as many posts as i can but cant seem to find a fix.
any help would be appriciated thanks
Does anyone know if it's possible to edit the contents of the "Enter Parameter Value" Box...for starters, I'd like to delete the phrase "Please Enter Parameter Value" as it means nothing to most users of Access; also, I'd like to format the text that I've entered in the query itself, i.e. make it bold, increase the size of it.
Incidentally, I did go down the route of linking my query to a form but this caused problems as I want more that one user to be able to view their particular parameter value at the same time.
Many thanks
Hey all,
I have been looking everywhere on a search form and its related queries / tables for a missing value / error that causes this pop up:
Enter Parameter Value
=Date()
The report opens fine once that parameter error is cleared, and I cannot find what it is refering to at all. Does Access have any tools to help me track that down instead of blindly looking at every component piece by piece and hoping to stumble upon it?
I found the code below to clear P.V. errors (I think anyway - I would rather figure out what is causing it, but after way too much time spent on it, I still have had zero luck), and I have toyed with this and am having no luck:
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
On Error Resume Next
Dim ctl As Control
Dim var As Variant
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(Me.RecordSource)
For Each ctl In Me.Controls
var = rst(ctl.ControlSource)
If Err = 438 Then ' Control has no Controlsource-property
Err.Clear
Resume Next
End If
If Err = 3265 Then ' Controlsource doesn't exist in recordsource
ctl.ControlSource = ""
Err.Clear
Resume Next
End If
Next ctl
End Sub
As always, any and all help is very appreciated!
I am trying to create a report, filtered on a combo box(txtname).This combo box is having a list of names.I have one query(mainquery) based on a single table(maintbl).I created a blank form(GenerateReport) with abovementioned combo box(txtname) and a simple button, which will open a simple report.In mainquery, under names column i am defining the criteria:
[Forms]![GenerateReport]![txtname]
Report is being filtered accurately.But when I open query i receive error 'Enter parameter Value'
why I get a pop up asking for parameter value of fields I no longer have in my table? It says this when I open my form. I deleted the fields from my form but it's still asking for it.

I have a command button that opens a report.In one of my reports, this macro works:
Code:
="[eEmployeeID]=" & [eEmployeeID]
However, in another command button that should open another report, the code below does not seem to work:
Code:
="[echEmployeeID]=" & [eEmployeeID]
It just keeps giving me errors saying that there's a mismatch, etc. The field in my report that holds Employee ID is named echEmployeeID. If I write this code:
Code:
="[echEmployeeID]=" & "[eEmployeeID]"
it sort of works, but Access asks me to enter parameter value first before executing the where condition. I already tried to change [echEmployeeID] to [eEmployeeID] both in the source table, and the report but it just doesn't work.
I have a query with several different columns. One Column, CodeNum is built based on the values in Expr4. When I try to set a criteria for CodeNum (Like "8*"), and I run the query, I get a popup for Expr4 ("Enter Parameter Value | Expr4). I want to get all values of Expr4 when CodeNum starts with an 8.
CodeNum is built as follows: JCC: Left([Expr4],InStr([Expr4],"/")-1)

SQL backend - Access frontend. All clients have the same frontend. Everybody can run the queries with [Please input value] as the criteria. Box pops up, they enter criteria and sort away, works fine.
On one machine, after sorting the results, it will always ask 'Enter Parameter Value'. I've relinked all the tables, checked for missing references, checked the ODBC, pulled across a replacement client. The query hasn't any ORDER BY clauses in, it's not linked to a report, it's just a simple query on one table. Except it seems on this one machine!
I've just tried stripping down the query to a couple of fields and changed the field the user has to input on. Same problem when I sort. So I've tried another table - same problem. It's as though the query is running and then forgetting the criteria?
I really want to put the PC in the skip now but it's got to be something relatively simple. Hasn't it?!!
Any ideas as to which way to turn would be much appreciated!
Many thanks
I have a problem on one of my forms that is used for maintaining subcontractor info. I use a list box as record selector, and the data source is a query based on which sub is selected from the list box. The list box itself is populated by a query, which uses an unbound check box (IncludeInactive) on the form to either include or exclude active subs. It all works fine except when I exit. I have a close form button, and when ever I use it to close the form, it gives me an “Enter Paramet Value” message for IncludeInactive. I don’t understand why. The only place it is referenced is the listbox, and it is only used while selecting a sub. The really odd thing is if I exit the screen use the close window button, I don’t get the error. My close form button is a simple DoCmd.Close, and has no other code in it. Can anyone give me any ideas where to look. I have reviewed the little VB code there is, and I don’t see anything.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
