Queries :: Filtered Lookup In Combo Box?
Jan 28, 2014
Where MS Excel is concerned there is very little I can't do and I am now transferring that skill to MS Access and I'm stumbling on this one.
In Excel I would use the INDIRECT formula within the validation and named range to do this but in Access I'm struggling to get this to work.
I have in table TBL_NL_Structure a list of CLIENT_ID with NL_ACCOUNTS against them i.e.
CLIENT_ID....ACCOUNTS
900001.........4000
900001.........4001
900002.........4003
What I want to be able to do is in a sub form and a combo box named ACCOUNT that looks at the active CLIENT_ID and pulls into to combo box JUST the ACCOUNTS set to that CLIENT_ID example if the CLIENT_ID is 900001 is just brings in ACCOUNTS 4000 & 4001.
I can get the whole list to come in to the combo box but not a filtered list.

I have two combo boxes in a subform that use lookup queries. I can get the combo boxes to work correctly out of sub form in a regular form but can not get the combo boxes to work in the sub form. I have narrowed the issue to the logic in the queries in the secondary and tertiary combo box queries. Here is the part of the secondary query. I think I have to add the primary form name to this part to correct my issues. How would I do that?
primary form = Lookup_fm
sub form = master_tbl_sub_fm
IIf(IsNull([forms]![Master_tbl_sub_fm]![Role1]),[P_ID],[Forms]![Master_tbl_sub_fm]![Role1])

I am fairly new with Access and VBA and am having troubles with the following. I filter a second combo box "cboTagNumber" with the first combo box "Combo133". The problem is when I clear the first combo box, the second combo box remains filtered. Is there an easy way to clear this?
This is the code:
Private Sub Combo133_AfterUpdate()
Dim strSource As String
strSource = "SELECT ID,[Tag Number] " & _
"FROM [E&I Table] " & _
"WHERE System = '" & Me.Combo133 & "' ORDER BY [Tag Number]"
Me.cboTagNumber.RowSource = strSource
Me.cboTagNumber = vbNullString
End Sub

This sounds like a cascading combo box issue but it isn't quite.
I filter my form using 2 unbound combo boxes which can be used in any order, both of which define text strings using case select. These strings are concatenated into a filter text and applied by a routine called in the after update event of either combo. All works well.
My question: How can I show all the filtered records in a third combo box so that users can easily select the record of interest from the filtered set?
I attempted to define SQL for each combination of the 2 comboboxes but it was getting ludicrously complicated so that got the heave ho.
After that, I attempted to use a recordset clone, but I couldn't get this to work:
'Clone record set for combo box rowsource
Dim R As Recordset
Set R = Me.RecordsetClone
R.Bookmark = Me.Bookmark
'Populate combo box with recordset
With Me![cboProjectList]
.RowSource = R
.Requery
End With
Reading the Access help, it seems that a combo box can only be populted via query, table or SQL. Is there any way of using a cloned recordset or the me.filter to show the filtered form records in a combo or list box?
I will be very grateful for any pointers.

Basically what I would like to do is create a Combo Box with each month of the year available to select. When I click on a specific month, I want it to pop open a Report based on my table that is filtered by the month I selected. I have a Date column already created in my base table to be my filtering device.
I've already learned how to use query's and reports a bit. I have a Command Button on my form that launches a report based on a query that only shows data for the current year. Likewise, I created one that only shows data for things with a specific item code using a [Which Item Code?] criteria in my query. So in theory, I could do this by creating 12 different buttons, 12 different query's, and 12 different reports. That seems like overkill though and it would seem there has to be an easier way to do that simply by using a combo box to select the month you want to filter.

I have a form with subform (datasheet) .
On my subform i have one field which shows the
productId ( which is filtered from combo boxes on main form) .
productId contains two columns
1 bound column(id) ( hidden with width 0 )
2 column (desription) ( shown with width 2 )
Now after entering the data when i come back to the form again . It hides the data from the productId field on subform , because data in combo box (on main form) doesn't match. Although the row is showing up , only the text in field (productId) is hidden.
Now when i change data in combo box on main form to match the ProductId , then the productId field text shows again. after changing combo box it hides . What i need is the existing data should not hide when i change the combo box selection.
see pic 1 where product matches and pic 2 where not. please note i am using master child relationship on the form/subform.

I'm trying to make a filtered search form using "*" as a wildcard default value in combo boxes, this works for all the text fields except for the account number field (Numeric primary key). After quite a bit of reading up and searching, I tried using the following as the row source;
SELECT customers.ACCOUNT_NO, customers.CUSTOMER FROM customers; UNION SELECT "*", "All" From Customers;
But am still getting "#Error" in the combo box.

I have a list of dates in my Form1.
When I click on a date it opens Form2 to show that dates specific details.
I would like a macro on Form2 that appends the filtered results to another table.
I think I am just struggling with the references to Form2 in the append query criteria.

I have a centralised database that imports data from several other databases at the click of a button to produce a "global" query of data.
This is presented as a datasheet form which I am then able to filter. This is a subform to my main form.
I have a button on my Main form with a macro to ExportWithFormatting to excel. I was under the impression that exportwithformatting exported the filtered data.
How to export my filtered query data to Excel and not the whole query data?

how to grab the recordset after a user has filtered a datasheet and export it to EXCEL with VBA from a Button on a form.
I've figured out how to export a pre-defined query to excel with all the fields I need. I was hoping to be able to grab the filters from the datasheet form and pass them to the query.
I have a main form with a bound Datasheet subform. The export button is on the main form and I need to grab the filtered data from the datahsheet subform.

I'm very new to Access and I'm attempting to write an expression in a query that will calculate the % of the count of "Exchange" field (Exchange is a text field and is grouped and the count based on each unique name) where the total count is based on the filter where "Group" = 'FS' or 'S'.
The below seems to work, but there is a better way of going about this (especially if I have to add more filter criteria). I added a pic of the query I'm trying to build.
PercentofTotal: (Count([Exchange])/DCount(Count([Exchange]),"[Holdings]","[Asset Group] = 'FS' OR [Asset Group]='S'"))

I have a form with a combo box (unbound) that gets its values from a table.
I also have another combo box which is supposed to get its values from a query:
SELECT Vehicle.Registration, Vehicle.Make FROM Vehicle WHERE (((Vehicle.Customer)=Forms![New Job]!Customer));
I have made the first combo box refresh/requery the second one onChange, but I get no options in the combo box.
I am pretty sure that the first combo box is Forms![New Job]!Customer. and there are matching values in the Vehicle.Customer field.
The database can be downloaded from:
http://www.tapestriesdirect.com/Garage.mdb (996KB)
or if you can unzip (who can't?!?)
http://www.tapestriesdirect.com/Garage.zip (86.1KB)
Cheers for any help

I have a filtered form with a sub form displaying only non-printed invoices.
The sub-form has a check-box (which is how the form is filtered) to only show unchecked (not yet printed) invoices.
All i want to do is print only the invoices visible in the sub-form.
I've setup the report to link to a query and the report is all setup, i just can't get the query to function how i want it to!
I've got this SQL code for the Query.
Code:
SELECT tblOrderForm.OrderNo, *
FROM tblOrderForm INNER JOIN tblOrderDetail ON tblOrderForm.OrderNo = tblOrderDetail.OrderNo
WHERE (((tblOrderForm.OrderNo)=[Forms]![Export Orders]![ExportSub].[form].[OrderNo]));
However this only shows the field with focus. I would like it to display ALL data in the subform.

Hey guys
This is the problem,
I have 2 fields in a table. Cityand Country.
City Country
paris.......France
madrid....Spain
london....England
milan.....Italy
Rome.....Italy
ETC
Field "City" is connected to a combo box and field "country" to a textbox on the form.
I would like the user to select a city from the combo box. When this is done the textbox linked to the country field should automatically update to show the correct country. This should update without user intervention.
I would find it better to have the text box look up a value list rather than use a table for its source. the form is being used as data entry. The combobox linked to field "city" is also a value list.
Thanks in advance.

I would like all of the text in my database to appear in upper case. I used the > symbol in the format of all controls and in my tables also. However, on my form's lookup combos it doesn't work. When I click the dropdown it shows all selections in upper case, but after I select it turns into lower case again.
I then tried using Ucase and strConv but those don't seem to work with my combos either.
I have searched and these are all the suggestions I could find on how to do this, does anyone know another or possibly what I am doing wrong?

Hiya
Have just created an access 2000 database which when a user logs on to the network as herself and tries to lookup any combo boxes or click a button to run a query from a form it shows or does nothing, yet when I log on I can.
Our IT Services have looked at folder/share permissions which appear to be OK and I've not set any permissions/workgroups in the database.
Can anyone shed any light as to why this is happening please?
Thanks
Dawn

I have two tables A and B. There is a 1 to many relationship between A and B. Table A's data is controlled by FormA, Table B's data is controlled by FormB which is a subform on FormA. I already have a combo box for navigation on FormA, however I would also like to be able to have a combo box on FormB (FormA's subform) for navigation, so that when I choose an record from the subforms (FormB) combo box, FormA then jumps to the 1 record from FormA that contains the related record choosen in the SubFormB's combo box (along with the subforms choosen record on the subform) .
Kindalike the combo box on FormA, except it's a 'reverse lookup' if that makes sense. Is this at all possible, does this even make sense? :confused:

I have a small database with 3 tables.
tblBilltoCustomer
Fields - Key - BillCustID , companyname, address1, address2, city, state
tblOrders
tblCustomers
I have a form that has tblCustomers as the main form then tblOrders as a sub form.
I want to place a combo box on the form that will lookup a company name from the tblBilltoCustomer table then brin in the address1, address2, city,state , into the form for that record. But then I need that same info to print on a rpt.
I can get the lookup to work using =cboCompanyName.Column() but the addresses , city and state will not show on report
Is there any good samples of lookup fields
Any Ideas are greatly appreciated

Dim xxx As String
xxx = "SELECT [tblType].[TypeID], [tblType].[CatID], [tblType].[TypeText] " & _
"FROM tblType " & _
"WHERE [CatID] = " & Me.cboCat.Value
Me.cboType.RowSource = xxx
Me.cboType.Requery
End Sub

cboCat works fine but cboType has a popup box that asks for the Parameter value for the choice made in cboCat. ( Me.cboCat.Value ???) Where did I go wrong ??

I have a DB that that is growing slowly. To keep it simple I have 2 tables and one form. One of the tables is a “ASSET_lookup” table. The other table (ASSETS) is the real meat and potatoes. I have a form for the assets table that will populate specific fields that are looked up based on a single combo box linked to a query from the assets_lookup table. Everything worked fine until I needed to add some additional items to the asset_lookup table.
The new “records” I added to the lookup table will not show up in the combo box after it updates (a selection is made). I did some experimenting and if I recreate after adding the new records to look up table, the combo box will show the value, but I am curious what I am missing.

I have a table with some combo selections with row source No;Yes, bound column 1, column count 1, and default value "No", limit to list set to yes, required = yes, allow zero length = no.
When I create a new record though, all of the combos show 0, and I have to select No or Yes manually. The requirement is that No is the default value..
Lots of thanks in advance,
Aidan

Hello people,
I'm not a programmer, I am infact a 17 year old College Student from the United Kingdom - Studying ICT!
For my major project I have to design, build and test a camera loans system for my photography department. Except, I am having problems with Combo box lookups. It's been over 6 months since I learnt this, and it's all a blank. Something as simple as this is simply not working...
e.g. in the Studentloans table, I wish to enter the Student ID number from the student ID card inside the combo box, and hit enter so that it brings up the relevant specific loans of that student.
I enter the id, hit enter and the student name, class etc does not change. Why? The same goes for my Camera Maintenance Table, Camera + Maintenance tables are combined to a CAMERAMAINTENANCE TABLE - Therefore I wish to enter the Camera ID number so that if i hit enter, it brings up the relevant service histories of that specific camera...
The relationships are all ok, the fields for Student ID are lookup, etc.
I don't understand. It's driving me insane. I need help with this, I'm struggling so much.
Help much appreciated.
Thanks - Neil.

I have a sales form that contains a combo box lookup to tblCUSTOMERS. It allows me to select a previous customer if that person is already entered into the system. If the person is NOT in the system, a form pops up to add the customer into the table.
What I need to know is, if the person IS already in the table BUT their address etc. has changed, what is the best way to get to that record to edit it? I'm THINKING a button with a command to go to that customer's profile.
What is the code to open a form to the customer selected in the drop down.
the customer name field is CUSTID
