I am setting up a form using a couple combo boxes. I want to populate a text box or 2 from the item record selected from one of the comboBox. Below is the code I am using.I have commented out where I am trying to transfer the value to the form, and try focusing on the query. When I run this code I get a type mismatch.

StringSQL = StringSQL & "FROM Slides "
I have a function that opens a pop off form that basically has a yes or no button in response to a question (sent via openargs) at present i am using a Database Public Variable to store the response to Yes or no buttons Ans d setting to function to this value.
Function YesOrNo(Message as String) Open FormName,,,,,acdialog,Message YesOrNo=IIF(gret=1,"Yes","No") End Function
gret being the public Variable changed by the pop form
I am a liitle concerned as to whether this is the best way to achieve this as the gret varaible is used extensively through the database and i am worried about any conflicts that may occur especially in a multi user enviroment.Any comments?
I have a form with text fields where I am entering customer last names and first names in different fields. Does anyone know how to return UPPER CASE letters automatically?
I've a form that has 2 subforms - which subform is used is dependant on the selection of a combo box in the main form. After much time spend trying to set this up I am happy to report that this section works fine.
My problem is that when I have completed the subform I am not able to continue tabbing through the rest of the form.
I'm really not sure how to go about this. I'm creating a course booking system and when creating a booking I need to check for current bookings with the same employee and course id's (i.e. the employee is already booked on the course). The query takes the employee and course id's from a form, and is initialised when the 'book' button is pressed. It correctly selects if the person is already booked on the course but I want the query to return a value to the form i.e. if it returns null/false then the booking can be created but if it returns a record/true then the booking already exists and a message box can be displayed.
I'm not sure if I'm going about this the right way, can anyone suggest how this can be done as described above or suggest a better way of doing the task?
I have a table called Prem. It contains three fields (Offer, MailCode, MktgProgam). I want to have a form where a user can select. the Offer (from the offer field) Once selected, it takes the MailCode and MktgProgam information from the Prem table and uses that info (MailCode, MktgProgram) to pull from the main table called "Cust" Is this doable?
Special situation: The SQL Server Linked Server across the country is linked to a Read Only Oracle DB. This data pull works perfectly and populates the Subform.
The problem is that Oracle can take 3 to 6 seconds to retrieve the single record depending on the network traffic through a small pipe.
The code below shows the RecordSource for the SubForm. clicking on a list box supplies the value. Then 3 to 6 seconds later, the subform populates.
The actual Recordset for this Recordsource is needed to conduct Validation on each field. Normally this would be on SQL Server, I might just create a Recordset Oject and run this SQL statement again in 1 milisecond. In this case, it will probably take an additional 3 to 6 seconds. Avoiding another lengthy round-trip to Oracle would be prefered.
Goal: How does one grab, clone, or other wise reference the existing recordset for the SubForm?
Note: Immediate Window - One single field can be returned quickly
There are 48 fields that need validation - is there a way to reference the entire recordset?
Immediate Window during Break Mode: ? me.fsubsrNavSHLBHL("NavSH_QQ") NESE ' this is the correct value for the current recordsource
Set a breakpoint right after the line: fsubsrNavSHLBHL.Form.RecordSource = "Select * from vsrNavigatorSHLBHL where Well_ID =" & txtNavWellID.Value
Immediate Window: ? me.fsubsrNavSHLBHL.Form.RecordSource Select * from vsrNavigatorSHLBHL where Well_ID =91229
Hey there! I've been searching about this forum and found a lot of threads on this sort of issue but haven't been able to figure it out from those alone, so feeling a bit useless :o long winded explanation by the way... I'm useless at explaining! :D
Well basically I have a query that is supposed to power a flexible search form, where you choose the fields you want to search by and enter your criteria. The form contains labelled fields with checkboxes next to them, which you tick if you want to search for something in that field. The results are displayed in a subform which reads from the query.
The problem is with the query! My solution seemed to work fine when I put my criteria in just one field when testing (that is the fields in query design builder, not the form), but when I applied the same to two fields it didn't. Instead, it would return nothing unless I specified exact and correct criteria for BOTH fields I had set up with my solution. So whereas before I could tick "Customer" and search for a customer account number and it would display ALL relevant records, now if i just ticked "Customer" and entered the same number, it would display nothing, unless I ALSO ticked "Booking" and entered a correct booking number that matched a record for that customer in the tables.
I've heard iif statements don't do too well in the criteria fields in the query design builder?? But I know nothing about using SQL really.
For example for the invoices field have used: IIf([Forms]![frmFindInvoices]![ChkInvNo]=True,[Forms]![frmFindInvoices]![InvNo])
So: IIf(form checkbox = true, form text box value)
However it seems to think that if the checkbox is not ticked, I want it to only display EMPTY invoicing fields. This is never the case and so no records are shown! If the tick box is not shown, there is not supposed to be criteria for this field, in other words it should allow ANYTHING through.
What I don't know how to do is tell the bloody thing that if the box is NOT ticked, it is NOT to check for anything in this field, because the user does not want to specify any criteria for this field! Things like "Is Null" produce the same results, probably because the query still thinks I want it to find records that have empty fields.
Any suggestions to specify to the query what I want? I really need to get this done! Thanks! :)
This is a toughie (i think so anyway!). I'll attempt to explain!!!
I start with a CONTINUOUS form in my DB that shows all readings for a single given customer's connections. E.g. Customer A has 5 connections and each connection has say 3 readings. Thus this query which uses joins between the Customers, Connections, and Readings tables, would return a list of all readings for each connection, so in the above example: 1*5*3 = 15 records.
Not too tricky so far, but then what I want is for each connection to have just one line showing the latest reading (easily achieved by use of SQL Aggregate Max function on the date field coming from the readings table) TOGETHER WITH the last-but-one (next most recent) reading. So back to the example taking Customer A's connection 1, the row would be as follows:
Cust Conn CurReading PrevReading A 1 750 500
Where the CurReading value (750) comes from a different record than PrevReading (500).
I've tried all sorts of ways (subqueries etc.) to achieve this without success. The main problem being that any sub query would require parameters from the current record's fields, which seems not to be possible. Can anyone help or is this simply not possible in MSAccess Forms. If it isn't possible anyone have any suggestions as to an alternative way?
I have combo boxes populated with all values in a particular field, then shunt the form onto that record (standard combo box for selecting records from a list in other words).
Problem is, these boxes seem to stop working if I leave the form for another and then return to it.
Here's the code Access puts behind:
----------- Set SerialRS = Me.Recordset.Clone SerialRS.FindFirst "[Serial Number] = '" & Me![Combo60] & "'" If Not SerialRS.EOF Then Me.Bookmark = SerialRS.Bookmark -----------
The form may be opened and closed via other processes (although never unloaded), but when I come back to it these combo boxes always stop working! Why?
I am using Access 2007. Second, I am using two tables, Inventory and Service Request. Inventory is a list all the Inventory, with has things like location (building & room number), type (desktop, laptop, etc.) and access tag number. Service Request also has Access Tag Number (should link back to Inventory) & date of reported/resolved problem and description of problem/solution.
On my form for Service Request, I have the access tag number as a fill text box, when you double click on that text box, it runs a Query that asks for the 1) Building, 2) Room Number & 3) Type . . . Query currently opens in a the spread sheet view that shows those three things but also the Access Tag Number associated to them.
I would like that Access Tag Number to just return into the field that was double click to start the query.
Multi search wont return results: Obviously I have my table and search form. But have hit a problem that is probably simple to overcome, but for the life of me I cant see it.
The small peice of code I have used = forms]![searchF]![name1] I have also tried Like"*" & forms]![searchF]![name1] & "*" still not working. The qurey accompanying form (searchF) works to displaying searchF form unpopulated which I believe is correct. I should at this stage be able to fill out the one table heading (name1) where the query should return a result in the (searchf) form but it does not return.
The tables, forms and quries, have all been saved and closed and re opened many times
The form (searchF) propeties have been checked and double checked. I have even built a test table but the same things happen as my main table.
I'm creating a search form to filter out data based on certain inputs. My VBA code looks like:
Code: Private Sub Command18_Click() On Error GoTo errorcatch Me.Filter = "([Experiments.Log] Like ""*" & Me.Text21 & "*"") AND ([Expdate] Like ""*" & Me.Text22 & "*"") AND ([BaseSolution] Like ""*" & Me.Text24 & "*"") AND([AddCom] Like ""*" & Me.Text25 & "*"") AND ([Test] Like ""*" & Me.Text26 & "*"") AND ([Plan] Like ""*" & Me.Text23 & "*"")"
Me.FilterOn = True Exit Sub errorcatch: MsgBox "Error #: " & Err.Number & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & Err.Description End Sub
However, the output does not include records where other fields are blank. I have read that I may need to use Is Null but am not sure how to.
I would like to filter my form - AdminForm with a combo box. If the user selects one of the choices.... Open, Completed, Hold then the records would be sorted by that criteria. There is a bound combo on the form now for the user to choose the state that the record is in and it coincides with the sort terms. I also have an unbound combo set up to use for the sort - ComboStatusFilter. I was thinking that an SQL statement for the form properties should work but am not sure how to write it. Is this the right way to go about it? Any help would be appreciated! I have been reading and searching for days but as yet not found what I am looking for, or cant recognize it at least. LOL
I have a form (frmInfo) that I would like to use for 3 purposes.
1 - to enter to information (data entry mode) 2 - to view existinging information (for a single record) 3 - to edit existing information (for a single record)
There is a Main Menu that allows the user to choose, Enter New, View or Edit.
If they choose NEW: the form (frmInfo) will open for data entry
If they choose Edit or View, a form (frmSearch) with a listing of all jobs will open, the user then chooses which job to Edit or View...from here frmInfo is opened to display only the record chosen and the record will be editable or read-only depending on the choice from the Main form.
At what point should the frmInfo recordsource be defined?
I have a table that contains fields as follows: [userId], [userName], [userFullname]. About 10 users (records) in total.
I have a function username() that gets the username of a user from their logon.
Now on my form, i have a textbox that I'd like to display the Fullname of the user that's currently logged on the form (On Open event). Meaning, it will get their username from my function, then compare it to values in the users table and display the full name of the user when the user opens to form to view their records.
Can anyone enlighten me on how to do this. I have tried tried tried, my methods aren't getting me anywhere.
Any help, suggestions, ideas will be greatly appreciated!
Hi guys, I'm a bit confused: I know that opening a bound form will bring down the whole recordset. But if I create a parametered query as the recordsource, will it still bring down the whole recordset first and only afterwards cut down to the records matching the parameters?
Example: I have a clients table with 5000 clients on a backend mdb, and my client lookup form in my frontend mdb. If I open the form looking for just client "Jim Jones" (via the parameter query), will Access bring down all 5000 clients from the backend to my frontend first, and only then seek out "Jim Jones" before discarding the rest of the recordset?
For if this is true then this whole Access business is rather unsuited for networks, even a small one. I hope you guys prove me wrong.
I want to write a email where there are 2 or 3 different ordernumbers for same email, i want to include the email in the mail part as single column table. how to do it? also can i use result of one recordset for other recordset?
I have form containing some filtered records. What code do I need to put on a button to trigger a make-table query; the make-table thus containing only the current filtered records (not the entire database).
Im having some Major issues with this problem, i only hope someone can help me!!
Firstly, let me set the scene. I have 1 Form, And 1 Subform within that form. The form gets the Main Data, the SubForm gets all the Related Data (in this case, its all the Items Of Equipment this client has) and then lists them in the subform. So it could return 1, or it could return 20 records.
What we want from this is to be able to record what the client thought of the piece of equipment, so there is a Option Group on the SubForm, which allows the user to choose 1 of 6 options saying whether it was useful or not and things.
BUT here lies the problem, if the SubForm has returned 20 records, i change the OptionGroup on record one, and every other 19 records become the same. if i change Record 2, record 1 and 3 to 19 are the same.
I want to be able to have a seperate choice for each record returned, but tis not working!!
The subform is populated by calling a SQL SP, i cant set the form to link directly to a view or SP because access doesnt allow me, by saying the recordset is not updatable!
I have 2 forms. On form1, the record source is a query. From form2, I need to iterate through the recordset from form1 and perform some action. How do I access the recordset from form1?
Im still struggling with working with recordsets.What i want to achieve is to loop through a continuous form recordset, Using the OrderDetailFK from the record set and the OrderDetailPK in the OrderDetail Table
Looking at the Status FK in the OrderDetail Table. IF the OrderDetail Status = 2 then i want to make the textbox enable property = False. I have made the bellow SQL string which is placing all the criteria i just need to link it into a recordset?
Code: mySQL = "SELECT [StatusFK] FROM [tblOrderDetail] WHERE [OrderDetailPK] = " & rst!OrderDetailFK & " AND [StatusFK] = 2 "";"""
so I have frm called frmplant which holds the plantgroupname I.E plant type (airblow,leads) then I have subform call plantitemtblsubform which holds the plant item serial number, value ,service date which works great now my problem I have command buttom on subformplantitemsubform then opens form call frmpopupPlantService this opens to show plantitem service history but when I add a record then save close then click the same plant item to open form frmpopupPlantService show no service history even when I just entered ...
I have an accdb file, holding all the tables on my server. Clients are linked to this one from their workstations. Speed is a constant issue mostly when more users are linked and I'm trying to find ways to make things faster.
Would it be possible to open a recordset when a form is loaded and set it as the form's data source? Would that make operation faster, at all?
The reason this idea came up is that it would be logical to use a small size recordset rather than large tables or queries that takes a while to load during starting form that use tables/queries with large number of records.
Hi! Solution is maybe simple, but I don't know it! When I put some value in a control (textbox) on a form, and after that if I close a form (by x button) that recordset is added to a table, but I don't want to do that- I just want to exit (close) the form! How to avoid adding that recordset to a table? Same things happens when I, by VBA, set focus to control, assign some value to it, and just want to exit the form.
