Reports :: Form With Option Group
Jul 30, 2015
I have a form with an option group. Within the option group I have a series of queries (all records, closed records, open records, etc.) to sort the data. Everything works fine.
My issue is a cosmetic one. When I change the query via running a report versus the option group, the option group doesn't reflect the correct status (e.g., I run a report for all closed records but the option group still shows All Records). In my VBA, is there a line I can write to change the option group appearance from All to Closed, without clicking on the option group itself?

I have created a form with an option group with 4 options (date, line, description and observation). Each of these options are to be a sort order for a report that will open after the user selects an option and clicks a button. I am trying to code the button using a select case so that case 1 opens the report sorted by date, case 2 by line, etc. how to write the code for the sorting.

I stumbled upon the Option Group function just yesterday and, happy as a clam, I created a group with 2 options in radio button style. I assigned the values to a field called Registration_Type as the 2 options are "Confirmed Registrants" and "Prospective Attendees".
[Great. That part works well. When I look at the table, a 1 or a 2 is in that field so it's great to know how to control accidental ticking of radio buttons (previous 450 records or so didn't have this option group functionality so one might easily tick one of the buttons. So one part of controlling option group I know I can handle via the table itself for now.]
The challenge is how to ensure the user always ticks one or the other ... I went back to the main table and tested the 'required entry' option for the Registration_Type field but forcing an action like this is not ideal in my mind. The usual error message vagueness for the average user is no good and I don't want to limit the user so much.
Is there a way to simply have a popup come up warning that neither radio button was ticked? Perhaps something linked to the form - i.e., maybe "after update"?? I only learned about attaching code to before and after update on controls a couple of days ago, so not sure if this would be best approach.
Just something to let the user know that nothing has been ticked in the option group as that controls in which of 2 reports the data will show up in so any record not ticked might mean a registrant being left out, which would be rather disastrous <g>.

I'm creating an employee survey database and I'm using option groups for collecting general information such as office, department, etc. My question is can I make it a requirement for them to answer an option group before moving on to other questions? I'm trying to control and track how many employees have taken the survey. Right now I can skip these general information questions and just go into the survey questions so I'm trying to prevent that. Also in the same train of thought is it possible to not save any incomplete surveys? Say I have 50 questions and someone starts the survey but only answers 10 questions and then exits for whatever reason. I would like that record to be deleted so it does not count. If I allow incomplete surveys then I can get skewed numbers.
As always you help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chester Campbell

I have a form where the users need to update an option group when they enter any information on the form.
The problem is that the users don't always update this option group.
The option group does not have a default value and has only two options.
When the user updates a form they need to choose a value.
One problem though, they may have to go in and update the form later and this action may cause them to change the option selected within the group.
Is there code I can use to alert them to first update the option group when updating the form and second to change the value within the option group when they need to.
Option Group --- Incomplete and Complete
Date Resolved can trigger the Complete option to be updated
I am seriously thinking we should make Incomplete the default value and then I would only need code for changing the option group from Incomplete to Complete.
However, Management wants the Option Group so we can run a report that lists all of the Incomplete and Null values within it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...

I am using an Access database for a foreign language dictionary project.
One of the forms I use is populated by a query (qryLemmaTable) to retrieve information from tblLEMMA.
This form works precisely as I intend it to work, but there is a glitch on it that is driving me mad.
The form in question has an option group with 11 radio buttons that correspond to the parts of speech associated with each word in tblLEMMA.
When I click on the button optAdjective I apply a filter and the only records that are displayed are adjectives. (The same applies for Nouns, Verbs, Prepositions etc.)
Here is the glitch: even though the radio buttons apply the filter correctly, no “black spot” appears in the button. Other signals on the screen let me know what word type is selected, so I can accomplish what I want, but I want the “black spots” too!
Perhaps this will be a clue: For each radio button I use the following code in the GotFocus event.
Me.FilterOn = False
Me.Filter = "wordtype = 'A'" ‘(or N, etc)
Me.FilterOn = True
And this for the Lost Focus event
Me.FilterOn = False
Thanks for the help.

Hi
I've got an Option Group with 3 options; Yes, No and Future.
I also have a range of Check Boxes; 1 for every day of the week.
When one of the check boxes is selected I want the Option Group to change to Yes.
Currently, the Option Group defaults to Future and No will only be available by manually selecting it. This doesn't need to be changed.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Cheers

I have a query that i need to run from a form. From form I need to pass criteria
1 for canada
2 for us
1 and 2 for us and Canada
The criteria needs to go into field Pricing Type. If user selects 1 then only Pricing Type 1 will display. If user selects 2 than only Pricing Type 2 should display. I user selects both , Pricing Type 1 and 2 should be listed.
Can this be achieved with option group?

I have a rather annoying and frustrating problem which I cannot find a solution for through searching the forum.
The situation is that I have a parent form with 1 unbound subform, the source of which is determined by the part number selected in the parent form (diffetrent parts have different fields of the source table displayed)
This all functions perfectly well in all but one case which is when the source of the subform is a form with an option group.
There is only 1 form like this, and the problem I have is that when tabbing through the fields, as soon as I tab into the option group the parent form disappears, and I am left with just the subform on screen! Clicking into the group is fine, just tabbing to it causes the problem, and if I remove the option group then tabbing through all the rest of the fields is fine...
I could powssibly change the option group for a set of option buttons and code them to function a bit like an option group, but this would mean changing the code for numerous reports etc. and I don't really want to do that if I can help it.

Despite Google I can't seem to figure this out.
I have some data in a format similar to:
Name / Style / description / speed / distance
john / driver / careful / 80 / 5500
mary / driver / careful / 70 / 7000
pat / racer / reckless / 100 / 6000
anne / driver / careful / 75 / 1000
peter / racer / reckless / 110 / 6500
don / snail / slow / 60 / 6000
I want my report to total by style, without details and to look like:
driver careful 13500
racer reckless 12500
snail slow 6000
How do you get a report to sum the group items by a specific item and to hide the details of that group summing?

At present I have a form which is used to select a date range then using one of three buttons I can select one of three reports. I want to use an Option Group with three options to replace the three buttons. I have fiddled around using three separate Option Buttons and they work ok but in my opinion they are not the way to go. I need some assistance with the code as the Option Group is slightly different to the Option Buttons.

I have a very simple option group, status 1, 2 , 3 or 4. When the status of the group is changed i have the following code used to label txtStatusChangeAudit which lables who changed it based on the log in name. I have this code for each of the four options. The code works great but when i leave the form and come back to it the txtStatusChangeAudit that holds the code is now blank. When i click an option it again shows the information i want.
How do i get the form to save this information so when i leave the form and come back to it the last person to change the status will still be present?
Private Sub OpenOptionButton_GotFocus()
Me.StatusChangeAudit = "Status Open By; " & User.UserName & Space(1) & (Now)
End Sub
Thanks a million..

This should be an easy one.... I had an existing form. Needed a second form. But the two were so close I just added and option group to make certian fields visible when that option was picked. Now.... The problem is sorting or doing a query by the value of the option group. What I am thinking is I need to store the value of the option to a field. ie My option group is named "PickWO" the value is "1" or "2", so I added a field to my WO table... so how do I store the value of "1" or "2" to the new field? Hope this makes sense!

I have created an option group. There is a question and the response is yes, no or N/A. If the answer is no or N/A then I want to skip to the next question. If the answer is yes then I want to ask a follow up question. How would I make it so that when the answer is no or na and the user hits tab it would skip right over the follow up portion and move on to the next question?

Hi,
I have a option group with several buttons. Is it possible to apply a msgbox to one of the buttons where it will ask the user "Are you sure you want to generate report to excel". I would like the user click ok to continue or cancel. I am not sure how to get this message box prior to the code running when the option button is pressed. Thanks you for your time.

Will someone look at my option group in my form (frmcustomer) and help me figure out why the option group selections for existing records nulls out (visually you cannot see which button had been previously selected).
The option group is working fine in that it is adding the appropriate selection to the record, but when you open the form up in edit mode the selection has been grayed out.

I have an Option Group with 3 choices...1,2 and 3. The default value is 2 as setup in the table default value setting.
I have a subform that has a check box and when checked I want the Option Group value to be "1" otherwise I want the default value of "2" or "3" to remain in the table. I can get all this to work through a Afterupdate code in the subform check box except the part where I want the value left at what
ever was in the option group part. Here is my code...
Private Sub Paperwork_Returned_AfterUpdate()
If Me.Paperwork_Returned = "yes" Then
Me.Parent.paperworkstatus = "1"
Else
Me.Parent.paperworkstatus = False
End If
End Subvalue
I think the problem is in the "Else" part. The if trus seems to work but if false it will not leave the previouse value in the field.
This last little thing is the last thing I need to finish up. This board has taught me so much...most of all it has taught me that when somebody ask me if I am an advanced access user, I will have to say is anyone? This program is so powerful and I can take a lifetime to master, or so it seems.
Thank you!

I have an option group, with two options buttons. I need to to be a required field. (I cant) make this required at the table level, as there are already 56K records).
I've tried on the before update on the form, making the frame tag = required. For some reason this is not working. Any idea's
Dim blnContinue As Boolean
Dim ctl As Control
blnContinue = True
For Each ctl In Me.Controls
If ctl.Tag = "Required" Then
If IsNull(ctl) Then
MsgBox "Required Information Missing", vbCritical + vbOKOnly + vbDefaultButton1, "You must fill in the field indicated with red"
Cancel = True
ctl.SetFocus
Exit For
End If
End If
Next ctl
Set ctl = Nothing
End Sub

Hi, all--
Perhaps a silly question:
I want to use an option group with a seperate check box for yes and no for a series of yes/no fields. I find that when I do this, once a record is started all have these items have "no" checked. I tried defaulting the value to null and other such things, but to no avail.
Any ideas (while retaining the concept)?
Thanks.
Paul

Hello Everyone,
I'm not sure if this is possible. I have a form (link to a table) with option boxes that when I click on one of the option boxes sets a value to a field in the table. The problem is that when I check a different option box I have to manually uncheck the other option box that was previously checked. Is there a way to have this done automatically? Meaning that if I check box 1 and then box 2, when I check box 2, then box 1 has to get Unchecked.
I also tried using a group option with different option boxes and that seems to work fine as far keeping only one option box checked, but don't know how to make the checked box to store its value to a table. Please help!
:confused:
Thanks!

I thought this would be easily found by searching the forum! But I had no luck.
Having trouble with an Option Group. I have an option group with 2 options, YES and NO. Value of Yes set to -1 and value of No set to 0. The field this is bound and is set to Yes/No. The problem is.... No matter what I try it keeps assigning a value to this field in my form! The option group is the last item on the form. Date being the first..... After you enter a date, and an auto number is created, it gives the option group a value of YES or "-1" There is nothing in the default value of the radio button, the frame, or the field to which it is bound. Why is this assigning a value and how can I stop it???? This group needs to remain blank to force the user to THINK before it has a value.
I have managed to get around this by changing the bound field to "Number" instead of a "Yes/No" .... But I am concerned with future queries and filtering. So is this the only way around this problem? Setting the field to "Number"?? And where is it pulling the value of the option group from when I have everything set to null??
Thanks
Curtis

Hello All
Talk about frustrating and I am sure the answer will be easy for some.
I have a Main form with search criteria and a subform with the data. See the attached image for the layout. The data comes from a query.
I have a yes/no field called "CompletedP" that I want to use to search on. This field is to filter in/out completed jobs. The Frame is called the generic name "Frame60". I am using an option group with the choice of yes or no plus other search criteria using combo boxes. The combo box filtering is fine but the option box does not appear to form any part of the search. To search I select any of the boxes and select "Search".
I post the code here.
Any assistance would be very much appreciated.
Private Sub cmdSearch_Click()
On Error Resume Next
Dim strFilterSQL As String
Dim sSql As String
Dim sCriteria As String
sCriteria = "WHERE 1=1 "
'This code is for a specific search where you will need to enter the exact string
'The source for this code can either be from a table or query
If Me![Location] <> "" Then
sCriteria = sCriteria & " AND qrySearchCriteriaSub6.Location = """ & Location & """"
End If
If Me![Code] <> "" Then
sCriteria = sCriteria & " AND qrySearchCriteriaSub6.Code like """ & Code & "*"""
End If
If Me![ClientCode] <> "" Then
sCriteria = sCriteria & " AND qrySearchCriteriaSub6.ClientCode Like """ & ClientCode & "*"""
End If
If Me![ProjectCode] <> "" Then
sCriteria = sCriteria & " AND qrySearchCriteriaSub6.ProjectCode = """ & ProjectCode & """"
End If
If Me![StartDate] <> "" And EndDate <> "" Then
sCriteria = sCriteria & " AND qrySearchCriteriaSub6.DateAllocated between #" & Format(StartDate, "dd-mmm-yyyy") & "# and #" & Format(EndDate, "dd-mmm-yyyy") & "#"
End If
Select Case Me.Frame60.Value
Case 1
strFilterSQL = sSql & " Where [CompletedP] = -1;"
Case 2
strFilterSQL = sSql & " Where [CompletedP] = 0;"
Case Else
strFilterSQL = sSql & ";"
End Select
If Nz(DCount("*", "qrySearchCriteriaSub6", Right(sCriteria, Len(sCriteria) - 14)), 0) > 0 Then
sSql = "SELECT DISTINCT [JobID],[Location],[Premises Details],[ProjectCode],[Code],[ClientCode],[DateAllocated],[CompletedP],[FileNumber] from qrySearchCriteriaSub6 " & sCriteria
Forms![frmSearchCriteriaMain6]![frmSearchCriteriaSub6].Form.RecordSource = sSql
Forms![frmSearchCriteriaMain6]![frmSearchCriteriaSub6].Form.Requery
Else
MsgBox "The search failed find any records" & vbCr & vbCr & _
"that matches your search criteria?", vbOKOnly + vbQuestion, "Search Record"
End If
