Newbie working in Access 2003. Please forgive me if this seems vague. I have a form that has a combo box in which a record is selected from a table. I have a report, whose record source includes this table. This table has records for two fields-Job Number and Distribution Date. My problem is that I would like the record that I selected from the combo box to be carried to the report. I can get the report to display the last record in this table, but not the one that I select. To recap; I would like to 1) click on the combo box, 2) select a Job Number, 3) click on a command button called 'Preview The Report', 4) see that the correct Job Number and Distribution Date are carried to report, and 5) print the report. It all appears to work up until the preview, where again, the last record, and not the one I selected, is carried to the report.
Thanks in advance for any help that any one is able to provide.
I currently have a report that is driven by a combobox. I was wondering if there's a simple way to create a report for each of the entries in the combobox through a "All" combobox entry. (i.e. instead of selecting each entry, one by one)
In a report using a query with a field named: "plantno" and as criteria" :Like [Fill in the plantno] I can put in a plantno.That is working Oke! I want to do the same thing as above but then that i want to see a combobox with a few plantno,s which are put in a valuelist,so that i dont have to type in plantno,s but that i only can choose out a valuelist.
I was wondering is this was possible in access. I've read material on grouping and sorting, but haven't been able to pin down what I need.
I have a combobox field that has 14 entries, beginning with 01 as the first two characters. What I'd like to do is change the order in which everything is displayed on the report.
For instance, show 07 at the top, then 09-13 below that, and so on...
I have a report, rptAllCSCS which is based on a query qryCSCS2...
One of the fields in qryCSCS2 is Status and each record is either "Current" or "Not Current"...
My report is being viewed via a navigation form, so one of the tabs says CSCS and when clicked the user can see the report...
I have added a button in the report header which when clicked opens the report in print preview so the user can print the report. (Done with a macro in the On Click of the button.)
I would like to add a combo box cmbStatus which has the values "Current" and "All" in the report header. (Current will show only when the Status field = Current and All shows all records so Current and Not Current together). This will act as a filter for the user to see the corresponding records and they can then press the print button or just view on screen.
I haven't worked with filters before except when you specify the criteria in the query and point it to a control on a form which then opens the report... As this report is already open I'm having trouble, as well as specifying the "path" when something is in a navigation form being a bit tricky...
I have a combobox that I use to combine the employees first name and id number. So when you pull down the list you can select the employee you want and it is saved in the form. Now I need to create a query so that I can create a report on each employee separately. The query will not let me get the Employee Frist Name/ID from that saved field. I thought that what is saves in that field, you can retrieve it in your queries or reports.
I have one table with some info about my clients, I have a form, where I must choose this clients from combobox and then after clicking button Print must open report with info about specific (chosen from combobox) client and some another texts that doesn't change. Final result must be printed report as invoice.
I can't create report with only specific record information.
I am trying to run a report based on a combobox selection. I have three different reports, each for the three different items in the combo box. I just don't know how to code it so when I run the report, it picks up the name in the combo box and opens the correct report. This is what my code looks like for the button that will run the report:
Private Sub Command7_Click() DoCmd.OpenReport ("Signers Authorized for Check Writing"), acViewPreview, , WhereCondition = [BTrans] = "Check Writing" DoCmd.OpenReport ("Signers Authorized for Stop Payment"), acViewPreview, , WhereCondition = [BTrans] = "Stop Payments" DoCmd.OpenReport ("Signers Authorized for Wires"), acViewPreview, , WhereCondition = [BTrans] = "Wires" End Sub
The problem is, that as soon as I hit the Run Report button, all three reports open up, so it is not reading what is in the combo box. The quotes, "Check Writing" , "Stop Payments" and "Wires" are the actual selections in the combobox and [BTrans] is the name of the combobox.
What I have is a single table that I need to create a report from. It has vehicle unit numbers, dates of service, repair details and costs. I am trying to generate a report where I can select a unit from a combobox and enter a date range.
I am trying to use a combobox called Manufacturer to select which table the combobox called Model gets it's rowsource from using the code below.
Code:
Private Sub Manufacturer_AfterUpdate() If (Me.Manufacturer.Value = "Siemens") Then Me.Model.RowSourceType = "Table/Query" Me.Model.Recordset = "SeimensTable" Me.Model.RowSource = "SELECT Model FROM SeimensTable" Else If (Me.Manufacturer.Value = "Samsung") Then Me.Model.RowSourceType = "Table/Query" Me.Model.Recordset = "SamsungTable" Me.Model.RowSource = "SELECT Model FROM SamsungTable" End If End If End Sub
But when I run the form and select Manufacturer. Combobox Model remains empty. tell me what I'm doing wrong?
How would I modify multiple comboboxes in subforms at the same time. For example.. In main form ComboboxA user selects 1992, Combobox1 in subform1 is also changed to 1992, as well as Combobox2 in subform 2.
I have 2 comboboxes, the first one is called "activity", whereby I have 3 options to choose from, and the second is called "level".
When I click an "activity", for example Drawings, I want the "level" combobox to list a unique set of options for that category. and if I click on a different "activity" for example Planning, I want the "level" combobox to show a completely different set of options.
If anyone can give me any help on how to do this then I would be very grateful!!
I've tried searching the forums and haven't found quite what i'm looking for. I would like to be able to change the source for a combobox based on another combobox. The simplest way i can summarize that is i want to be able to choose A or B, depending on my choice i want another combobox to display all the values that A or B can have.
I've read some tutorials on this sort of thing, but I can't seem to piece it all together to achieve what I want.
I have a table Products that contains the fields Product, Size and Brand. I also have a form, frmProducts, that has a combobox linked to each of the fields in the Products table. I want to be able to select a product from the first combobox, tab to the Brand combobox and have only those brands associated with the product already selected.
This is how I think it should work: 1.ComboBox1 selects productA 2.ComboBox2 takes its options from a query that searches Products table for all instances of productA and displays all available brands. brandA is selected. 3.ComboBox3 get its options from another query that searches for all instances of productA that also have brandA and displays all available sizes.
What I'm having trouble with in particular is passing the data between queries. For example, I can't figure out how to tell the query to search for all instances of productA when its defined by the first combobox. Do I have to store it as a variable somewhere?
If I want the combo box to read entry's from one table and then store in another table how would this be done? I think it has to be done with the query builder but I am not sure. I am sorta new to Access.
I have an invoice form with its detail subform that I have been stuck with for a while. The main problem is on the detail subform, here is what I have:
1. I have 5 fields, DepartmentID, ProductID, Qty, Price, Total.
2. The department is a combobox and I want to select the department that the product is from. Example: If I will be selling a pvc pipe I should select PVC Department.
3. Once I select the department I want the product combobox to only show the products from that department. So I select Electrical Department I can only see what items belong to the Electrical Department.
That is basicaly what I need it to do. So, I worked hard on this looked at samples, read threathds, pull all my hair out, almost done eating all my nails, and most of you know how that goes!!!!
Well finaly after sleepless nights I got something to work!!! I was able to make the product combobox only show the items from that department, Man I was jumping of joy!!! I turnon my radio and put on "Eye of the tiger" and started boxing away!!!! jejeje
Well, I started to make it look pretty, changing the looks and changing the comboboxes to show me the name of the department not the ID, worked good, than I changed the product combobox to show the name not the ID and something went wrong......
The department combobox does a requery of the product combobox everytime I select the department for a new item. So for some reason it makes the product code from the other item disapear....I cant figure it out!!
I have attached the DB, goto frmFactura there is already one invoice started, I have selected the PVC Dept and the Product, you can also see the prtoduct code, once you goto the next item and select another department the prodcode desapears but the prodid stays...
Simple question, is their a way of showing the value on the combo box without saving it in a table. Therefore, when you open the form again next time the value last selected is viewed again.
On a form i have 25 comboboxes with names the form is based on a table (tblpersons) with the key personID now how can i in all the comboboxes in the event before update doing the following:
when i select a name in a combobox before update i want to search in all the combobowes of that name i selected not 2x selected is and and if not then the name must in the field otherwise it would tell me that thr name al is selected in another combobox. If the name i selected is ok then this name must not again availible in the combobox
I want to have a combobox draw its information from more then one column in the same row from the table, but show as only one column when a user clicks on the combobox in the form.
Example of what I am doing...
Table with contact information: Contact, Phone1, Phone2, Phone3
Combobox on form for contact log: (what I want but not sure how to do) Phone = (Phone1, Phone2, Phone3 in a single column)
I need the combobox to be able to select each phone number seperatly from that contact so I can show which number was called.
I know there have been old threads on this issue. I have done a search and read them. That is how I got this far. I was able to search the Web, find a Govt site with a list of every zipcode in the country. It was a text file so I converted it in excel and then imported into an Access table. I now have a 4 field table with every zip in the country-city,state,and Zipplus a auto number field as my primary key. My db is name and address intensive in multiple tables. I want to use a combobox to lookup and display city,state and zip on my forms from this table instead of storing the information. However, If I do this and then want to generate a mailing list how can I do this if the city,state,zip info has only been displayed from a combobox and not stored in the underlying table? Since I am using an autonumber as the primary key for the city,state,zip table can I include a field for that pk in an invisible field and just store that? If anyone wants the table of zipcodes let me know. I'll be happy to upload it.
I have a form for entering data. I use a combo box linked to a table to select a record that has a person's SSN, Name and city. Once the proper record is highligted and selected only the first column is visible in the combobox. Is there any way to keep all 3 columns visible once a record is selected in the combobox?
When i try to update a field using a lookup instead of giving me the name of the employee and Customer it only offers their respective ID numbers. How can i change this?

I have a form with 7 List boxes linked to 7 Query's which in turn are linked to a table. Each list box if for a particular trade.
I am trying to select a person or persons from each List box and then have them sent to a report. I have Code to do one list box, but do not know how to link all boxes with code to a 'Open report' button.
The code I am using is as follows:-

The aim of what I am doing is to create a monthly statement to give to our intermediaries that shows the commission they will receive each month for the deals they have referred. I have managed to create this report, HOWEVER I can't figure out how to filter out which month I need, so I a report for Jan, Feb Mar etc... The idea is that at the end of each month I need to run the report so only the latest month shows...
