I've currently got a Combo Box (in the form of a drop down list) in the main part of my form for data entry. I have recently created a seperate form called 'edit' to change current values that may be incorrect. As a part of this, I would like to make changes to the values displayed in the Combo Box (let's say there is a typo). So I have copied the combo box from the viewing page into my editing section, and made the change I want to the appropriate entry. I then go back to my viewing page, and the data hasn't automatically updated. (However, If I look at the drop down list now, the new spelling of the entry is there, the old one is gone, and I can select the new one; making the change complete. Is there a way that I can get it to automatically update all the fields that currently have the old spelling to the new spelling? (all I see on after update for the combo box is a list of my macros?)
Hi, I tried in many ways, but Coudn't refresh the combo box values.
the problem is, I hv created combo box contains Subject "Account","Maths","English". If I select "Account" from combobox, the Teachers name should display in text box which I created in form. One teacher can take more than one subject. Ex. First selection is Account, teacher name may be "a","B","c" and for "Maths" teacher name as "a","D","e"
By selecting particular department, the teachers name who all involving that department should display. And also i need to display in how many classes that teacher involved in text box next to teacher name in the Form.
selecting one option from combo box then how to refresh for another selection in combo box Is anyone there pl.
I have a combo box on a form to enable users to find records. When the form opens initially, these boxes are blank. However, after a search has been performed, the selected information in the combo box stays there, as well as the record opening up. How can I make the combo box revert to being blank after the record has opened on the form?
I have a combo box in which it's value changes according to user input. It is working but it is annoying to have to click the combo box for it's list to refresh. How to make it seemless?
I have a form where the user selects a client from a combo box.
Doing so populates 4 controls with info about the client, using the Exit function of the cbo box. The Record Source of the form in question does not store this info; it comes from a different table.
This works fine.
When the record has been saved and I come back to it, however, those four controls do not display the client's information, since the combo box hasn't been exited.
What's the best way to get the form to repopulate those controls without having to reselect the combo entry?
I have a form with three subforms, and I'm having problem with one of them. The link between subforms and forms are store number, which is stored in a combo box. Idealy, after a user pick a store from the combo box, the subform would update itself. Two out of the three subforms are based on two crosstab queries and they work perfectly fine. The last subform is a select query, and it seems like it's not rerunning itself after updating the combo box. The query is very simple, it just has store number, description, and grouped by amount. I tried with no criteria in the store field and run the masterform,seems like all it's doing is showing value for the first store in the table, and never changes afterwards, I also tried entering "forms!frmStores!cmbStore" in the criteria for the store, then the subform came out empty, it seems like it's only reading combo box's default value null. I have a line of code for the mater form frmStores as "me.[DisplaySubform].requery" for all three subforms, but it seems like it's working for the first two and not the select query. Anybody can help me with this? oh, the combo box is unbounded, because i do not want my table to be updated by selection. Please help
I have a form with a list box where you can add new names, and a bombi box that lits current names already in use. I want the form to update the combi with the name just typed in the list box. I guess I use OnExit event, but I don't know the code I should use for updating the combi list..
Background: I have a continous form linked to a table and I have 3 combo boxes on the form (linked to fields on the table). The combo boxes are called JOB TITLE, SCHEDULE and SHIFT. The source for the combo boxes are queries named respectively as LKUPJOB, LKUPSCHEDULE and LKUPSHIFT. For the three combo boxes listed abpve, the bound column is the first field of the underlying query and the column width of the first field is set to 0" (so that the second field of the query is displayed).
The way things should work is that for each record on the form, the LKUPSCHEDULE and LKUPSHIFT queries (queries for the SCHEDULE and SHIFT combo boxes), the queries are filtered based on the bound field of the JOB TITLE combo box. The name of the bound field for the JOB TITLE combo is called Labor_Rate_ID.
Problem: Unfortunately, It seems like the value of the labor-rate_ID in the first record (i.e. first job title combo box) determines the query list used by the SCHEDULE and SHIFT comboboxes for all the other records on the form. That is, even though the form has lots of records displayed, the combo boxes for each record don't have a complete list to work with.
Hence, the SCHEDULE and SHIFT combo boxes for some records are showing a blank (since available otions in the combo query list don't match the value in the table for that record.
Can anybody tell me how to get a continous form to refress the list for each record on the form.
I also don't know whether the Requery command for a macro could work and how to use it. I think though, that this problem can't be solved by a macro.
Basically, the question is around what kind of code will let you manipulate the properties of individual controls of a form at the Record level.
I have a Main form with a combo box that pulls names from a table. Alongside the combo box is a command button that opens a form which allows the user to edit the names in the table.
The problem: When a user edits a name and closes the edit form, the edit is not immediately displayed in the combo box. However, when the Main form is closed and reopened, the edit is properly displayed. Can I somehow refresh the combo box in the On Close event of the edit form?
I have a continuous subform which has a DLookup to pull a calculation from a query, what's the best way to get the field to refresh every time a record is updated (via a pop up window).
I just realized why I wanted to stop using Access long ago...anyway here's my problem.
I have two tables: table1 and table2 (I know,creative). Anyway, table1 is linked from another database, table2 is local to the open database. I use table2 as a temporary table to hold data from table1. table1 is then set as the datasource of one of my forms.
I have a button which is used to refresh the data. Basically, it deletes everything in the temp table (table2) and inserts data from the linked table (table1). When I do this, the rows in my form then all contain #Deleted, but it never refreshes with the new data after I have inserted it.
I've tried using the Refresh, Requery and even Repaint methods. Still no luck. Then, I clicked Remove Filter from the toolbar and the new data appeared, but I don't have any filters in place. So then I tried to do this programmatically by setting the subform (I'm using subforms ) Filter = "", its FilterOn to False and its OrderBy = "".
I have a graph on my form, an Update/Refresh button, and a textbox that display a calculted value.
The textboxes controlsource is "=GetMyValue()"
Now when I click the Update button on the form, I would like to have the graph to refresh first, and then the textbox should update its value by running the GetMyValue function. But it works the other way around.
I've even tried to reset and set the textbox controlsource in the click event but it still get's preference above the refresh of the graph.
In the database I have a main form with subform "frmitinerer" . Using a button on the main form open form "frmrelation." After entering the new daily haul and closing forms refresh the data in the subform "frmitinerer."Code on the button is on click event
How do you refresh all of the data on a form when the tables that are the source for dlookup fields on the form are changed by command buttons on the form?
I have a number of charts that correspond to form fields. Once the fields are filled out and the form is saved I want the data automatically to update in the chart. I tried inserting a button to allow the user to manually do it, but it says that it is unavailable. The charts update when i click refresh, however I dont want the user to have to do this.
Form 1 - Data entry for a new project Form 2 - Data entry for a task associated with the project in the Form 1
Button on form 1 that opens Form 2.
What I am trying to do:
Use a combobox on Form Two to choose the Project entered into Form 1, so I can capture the Form1 PK as a FK on Form 2.
Here is the problem:
Refreshing the record on the button click so that the new option entered into Form 1 shows up in the combo box on Form 2.
Full disclosure: I'm not much good at VBA so I have been trying to do this by customizing the button macro. I have tried Refresh, and Requery, but I can't seem to get it to update the list in the combo box.
2 questions:
1. How can I get this accomplished? 2. Is there a better way to get this data into the table than what I am trying to do?
Test findings showed that when I open a form the data does not update. I added a refresh action after the openform action. If I want to open three forms via the macro, do I need three refresh actions, one after each openform action, or simply a single refresh action that would apply to all three forms.
I have a table called "EquipmentRequired" which is populated by 4 append queries,
5000BaseReq, 6000BaseReq, 6000IFBBReq, EquipmentReq which get some of their information by counting fields in another table but all have the same field names.
The queries contain all data that is initially used to append new records to the table and this works fine.Unless some information changes or a record is added then I would like to add a button to a form and call it "update equipment" behind which would run a vba code firstly to delete all the records in "EquipmentRequired" table then run the 4 queries without the warnings and re-populate the table.
I have a form with a combo box that populates a subform with data equal to the combo box value. I have added "<ALL>" to the combo box to display all records if selected. The after update code changes the queryDefs. The problem I have is that when "<ALL>" is selected, no records show. But the query has updated. If I close the main form and reopen it all the records show, but if I select a new value nothing happpens. But the actual query has updated. I have tried many combinations of refresh, repaint...etc. Anyway, here is the code, any help appreciated.
Private Sub cboFeedMtrl_AfterUpdate()
Dim qryAllMat As QueryDef Dim sql As String Set dbsCurrent = CurrentDb Set qryAllMat = dbsCurrent.QueryDefs("qryViewData")
If Me![cboFeedMtrl].Value = "<ALL>" Then qryAllMat.sql = "SELECT * FROM tblMachineSelection" Me![frmViewData].Requery
Else qryAllMat.sql = "SELECT * FROM tblMachineSelection where [feed Material] = [Forms]![frmView]![cboFeedMtrl]" Me![frmViewData].Requery
I have a form which contains one subform. On the subform I have a command button which saves the record just entered. On the main form I have a "refresh form data" button which updates the main form so that the calculated controls can show the correct results based on the data just entered?
Can anyone tell me how I can get the "save record" button in the subform to subsequently refresh the data in the main form as well, thus saving a button???
I apologize if this has probably been asked countless times; however, in my search of this forum I could not find something that seemed to work for something so simple.
I have 2 forms. The first form is my main form and the second form is my "popup" form. Both of these forms access the same table. In my main form I have it so people can not enter in a ID so it reduces accidental data entry. Therefore, I created a "popup" box that allows ID entry.
Everything works great except when I close out of the popup form, the newly entered data is not available unless I close the main form and reopen.
Million Dollar Question:
How do I refresh or requery (dunno the correct term usage here) the main form to reflect the addition I made in my popup form. I would like the refresh event to happen when I click the close button on my popup form.
I have a data access page needs a filter by a dropdownlist, the dropdownlist used is a html control and I use javascript to filter the data programmaticlly in the onchanged event of the control.
MSODSC.DataPages(0).Recordset.Filter="AppID = 3";
My problem is, when this statement runs, the page refreshes. But I don't need the page refreshes, it set the dropdownlist text to the default text, not the value user select. The browser is IE7.
It's been a while since I've used Access, and I seem to have forgotten this.
I have a form which allows entry of Borrower's details. I have 2 combo boxes on the form.
They are:
cboBorrName cboLoanSN
Once the user selects the name from the cboBorrName, I want the cboLoanSN to display all loans associated with the Borrower so that they can select the correct loan and add repayment details accordingly.
I have added the following SQL statement as the record source of cboLoanSN
Code:SELECT * from tblBorrower WHERE tblBorrower.fldLoanSN=[Forms]![frmBorrower]![cboBorrName]
I have also added the following code in the After Update event of cboBorrName
If I have a drop down box with names in, is it possible when I select a name from the list (drop down box) that it will fill in data related to that name into several fields on my form, the data from the names will be on a form that is closed.??? Chris
