Returning Multi Select Values
Sep 29, 2005
I have a problem that I haven't seen discussed here yet. (I know this is not good practice, but we're doing this for transfer to another application that wants and accepts data this way)
1) I have a multi select list box.
2) I have code that saves all the values in a semi colon delimeted list in a single field in the DB. (As I said, the application that this data is going to (and from) wants and accepts data in this way)
3) My problem is this. When I re-open my form, how do I get the values that are stored in the database to be highlighted in the multi select list box. I have code similar to this running, but still can't figure it out.
Dim lst() As String
rst.Open sSQL, cnn, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic
lst = Split(rst(0), vbCrLf, -1) 'Split the recordset into an array
For i = 0 To List96.ListCount
For j = 0 To UBound(lst) 'lopp until the upper bound of the array
'If the item in the list box = the item in the array then highlight the item in the list box
If List96.ItemData(i) = lst(j) Then
List96.ItemsSelected(i) = True
End If
Next j
Next i
In a nutshell, that's the problem. My list box contains a list of about 5 or 6 things, the user can select any number of them, and I store it in a single field in the DB semi colon delimited. However, I don't know how to return that field to my list box with the selected values highlighted. IE if the list contains A, B, C, D and the user selected A, C the field in the DB looks like this A;C. When I open the form again, I want to highlight A and C in my list box since those were the fields the user selected.
What happens is A;C gets passed to another application (which wants it that way). However, in that other application those values may or may not change, and then they will be passed back to me. (IE the other application may change those values to A;B;D and pass it back to me (which I accept no problem). However, when the user opens the form I want A B and D to be highlighted in the multi select list box
Any help is much appreciated

Hello!
I've good a very very strange problem...
I do an insert of a new row into the table TRA. That insert creates an id for the new row.
Right after that I do a select of the new row, trying to get the new id created.
Well, the insert is working fine, but the select sometimes gives me values, sometimes not.
How is it possible?? I've tryied closing the database and opening it again, but is not working anyway...
Any idea??
My code right now is the following: (closing the database, setting recordset to nothing... and still not working properly)
sql = "insert into tra (semana, empleadoid) values('" & semana & "'," & empleadoId & "); "
DoCmd.RunSQL (sql)
db.Close
Set db = OpenDatabase(database)
sql = ""
Set rcset = Nothing
sql = "select * from TRA where (semana='" & semana & "' and empleadoId =" & empleadoId & "; "

i have a multiselect listbox in my form.
The multiselectlistbox contains the names of different persons from tblUsers.
it's allready possible to write the id's of the names to another table (tblPresent).
But what I can't manage to do is re-select the values in another multiselect listbox. This multiselectlistbox is located on my editform.
I can display the values using a valuelistbox, but i need to see the non-selected items too..
hope someone can help me out

Is there a way to order the values in a multi-select list box:
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20 appears in the listbox as:
1,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 . Is there a way to have it appear as it does originally?

All -
For the life of me I can't get the Multiselect Listbox to correctly pass along all of the item selections to a Query which a form is based on.
I've been up and down the forum, and I can't figure out what piece of code to use and how to use it successfully.
I've been able to get a string created using the example posted here (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=47909) and it's in the format of "54,67,89,100" etc.
Public Function
Public Function fMultiSelect(ctlRef As ListBox) As Variant
Dim Criteria As String
Dim i As Variant
' Build criteria string from selected items in list box.
Criteria = ""
For Each i In ctlRef.ItemsSelected
If Criteria <> "" Then
Criteria = Criteria & ","
End If
Criteria = Criteria & Format(ctlRef.ItemData(i), "0000000")
Next i
fMultiSelect = Criteria
gMultiSelect = Criteria
End Function
Call:
Call fMultiSelect(Forms!frmPreSPIPComp!lstProjects)
I now need to pass that string to a Query. Once it's been passed to the query, I can open the report based on it.
Essentially I have a button that will perform the string creation, and I would then like to open a report. I want to base the report off of a query and then have the query use Criteria to dwindle down the report.
Am I missing something here?
The long explanation:
I have a single form that allows for the selection of the report. Once the report is selected, certain fields appear that allow for certain criteria to be selected (ie. Class Name, Multi-Select Class Name, Student Names, Multi select Student Names, Dates, etc.)
Once the report has been selected and the criteria set, a user hits a single button that runs the specific report.
Any better ideas of how to set this up. The reports will ultimately be basing their criteria on what the form has in all of it's unbound fields.
I also have a table that specifies the Display Name, actual Report Name for the button to figure out what report to run.
Bottom Line. I want to use a Listbox to filter a report. If I can use a query to base the report off of even better. I don't want to create the SQL in VBA.
Any ideas? Thanks!

I have a multi-select listbox (called PotentialItems) which behaves perfectly unless one of the fields has a null value in it, in which case I get an error 13, "Type mismatch" in the following code. It is valid business-wise for column 9 to be null.
Code:
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim dblTargetPrice As Double
With Me.PotentialItems
For Each varItem In .ItemsSelected
If Not IsNull(varItem) Then
dblTargetPrice = Nz(.Column(9, varItem), 0) '<----- Error here
End If
Next
End With

I am currently trying to make a form which will generate a report for the users. Currently the form has 3 combo boxes where users select which fields they want displayed from the table in the report. They also have sorting options next to them (Asc or Desc). I am now trying to put in a multi select list box under each combo box to allow users to filter the report to their liking. Currently I am trying to pull distinct values from the specific field of the table and display them in the listbox for users to select.
I have tried using vba to set me.filter1.rowsource = SELECT DISTINCT me.combo1 FROM EVAP_Database, but this doesnt seem to work. I have also tried a few other codes and still no luck.
Table: EVAP Database
Combo: Combo1
Filter Listbox: Filter1

I have a multi slect list box (simple) and I need to find and select an item using vba - e.g., the bound column is the ID field and I need to select a specific ID (which will be different each time) as opposed to selecting the 100th record for example. How do I do this?

Hi,
is there any (reasonably simple) way to select or deselect multiple items from the List Box with individual clicks without using Ctrl key. Eg first click on an item would select it leaving all other items as they are, subsequent click on the already selected item would deselect it etc. I hope this is not too confusing and I would appreciate some help.
Thanks!

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.

Hello!
My problem is the following:
My select works fine when I select 3 fields, but trying to select more than three, when I add two fields more, it doesn't give me the last two fields, being these two fields added lattely in the table...
I mean... I added two fields more to the table one it was created, and the script executed.
After that, if I try select * from table, the recordset does not have this two fields... only the old ones...
Any idea?

I am trying to select all projects with the keyword "sett" in them. About a thousand rows with this keyword exist but why isn't my query returning any data? :confused:
Here's an example of the data "STPT-SETT-NY-EQ Legacy"
Now i want to return all rows with "SETT".
What am i doing wrong here please :)
SELECT projectList.*
FROM projectList
WHERE (((projectList.projectName) Like "%SETT%"));
this doesn't work either. No records are returned when query is run:
SELECT projectList.*
FROM projectList
WHERE (((projectList.projectName)="%SETT%"));

Hello, I am sure this is quite simple, however I cannot figure it out. I have a query that shows tblPartNumber and tblAverage. The average is calculated in the query by taking the total minutes to assemble the parts, divided by the number of parts completed. What I am trying to do is run a query that will show me the most efficient (lowest average), time for each Partnumber. Ideally the query would show me something like this;
Part # Average
1234 .72
1234 .86
1234 .94
etc...
I searched on here and it seemed like the Top 10 is used, but in my application that ommits all of the other partnumbers because it only shows ten of the records for the first partnumber. I only want to see the five most efficient averages. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Tim

I have a db with 2 tables, one containing basic info FirstName, Surname, YearGroup, and another table with other data. I imported a list of names into the first table, firstname and surname only were imported, other field was left empty, other table was also left empty. I made a simple select query to pull all records from both tables and i get no results at all. None of the imported names show on the query results. what I am missing?

I am building a select query which is grabbing data from multiple tables with items being linked by a unique field "Certificate_ID".
I have created joins between table A and Table B, and Table A and Table C, linking both by Certificate_ID
All have the join property set to select all Records from table A, but only those from Table B and Table C where the joined fields are equal.
Table A has 5000 records. Am I correct to assume that my query should only return a max of 5000 records as well? When I select Certificate_ID from A and another column from B it only gives me the 5000 unique records. When I add in a column from Table C it is however returning something like 7500 records, with several being duplicates with the same data in every column.
Why it is choosing to duplicate records and give me more than I want. I am sure I am overlooking something simple.

Hi anyone!
I have a table that tracks data for parts across different depots. Thus some depots might not have records for a part in a particular depot whilst others do on a given day. My table does not record a 0 value for parts in a dept that don't have a part on a given day, it simply does not record anything.
I would like to query all depots and have it return a 0 value where there are no records on a given day for a given part in that depot. Does anyone know how to do this? i.e. if no record return 0 as default.
Does anyone know how to do that? At the mo my query simply exlcudes all records on taht day for all depots?
Thanks in advance

Hi.
Can someone help me?
I am trying to make a query return all values (please see attached jpg)
It returns some of the values, but is not returning values that have nothing in the "material" field (Null Values?)
In this example, I would like it to return all values that fulfill the Completion_Date, CW_Department, Handed_Over and Chargable fields, whether they have any data in the Material field or not.
Do I need to use the NZ, IIF or IsNull function? I have seen this is previous threads, but nothing like this example.....I apologise if there is.
Many Thanks.
Frank.

2007 version - my child query is not returning null values. I have 2 fields, both pulled from a parent query. One is "DaysSinceRecd", the other is "AmountPaying". The parent query returns multiple results, which is fine. For example, the parent query might have 10 different records for "0" "DaysSinceRecd", with different "AmountPaying" for each of those records.
In the child query, I am trying to condense that down, so that I only have one "AmountPaying" for each "DaysSinceRecd". It's working fabulously, except that there are records in the parent query that have a value for "AmountPaying" but a null value for "DaysSinceRecd". The null value for "DaysSinceRecd" cannot be changed to another value, it needs to stay null. My child query is not returning the null records. I tried adding to the criteria: IsNull Or IsNotNull, >=0 or <=0. That's not working.

I have multiple codes assigned to records in a table. I want to be able to say IIf [code] = "FMIX",[qty]*2.2046/7.1, IIf [code] = "Liqd", [qty]*2.2046 and everything else can just equal [qty]. I have tried this statment Expr1: IIf([family-code]="FMIX",[SumOfqty-on-hand]*2.2046 IIf([family-code]="LIQD",<[SumOfqty-on-hand]*2.2046>,[SumOfqty-on-hand]),[SumOfqty-on-hand]) and it doesn't work. Can anyone tell me what is wrong?

Hi,
This is my first posting on this forum, and I would greatly appreciate any help with this issue...
I have a form that is used for entering information into tables. I would like to be able to select multiple options from a list on a form and have it saved into a table. Any ideas? Is this even possible :confused:
Here are some paths I followed:
The table has a List Box field, type Text, that gets values for the list items from another table. On the form, I have changed the Multi-Select property of the List Box to "Extended" so that the user can select multiple items from the list. But when I select items from the List Box, the table is not getting updated with the selected items.
Another way I tried doing this: The table has a List Box field that has no values (I'm not looking up values from another table). On the form, I set the Row Source of the List Box equal to the query that gets the list values from a table. I then set the Multi-Select property to "Extended". When I select multiple items from the List Box, the table doesn't get updated.
FYI: The control source for the list box on the form is pointing to the field in the table.
Thanks,
dbnewbie

I would like to create a form that my users can select multiple check boxes from and have only those records that meet the criteria come up in a search.
See attachment for a look at the form.
I need to be able to let the user have the ability to put in a name and then select any of the check boxes and then click on a search button that will execute a query that will bring up the results.
Any help with code or at least a point in the right direction would be nice.
Thanks,
Chuck

Good morning all...
I have two questions regarding a multi-select list box.
First, is there any way to have the list box include multi-line items...or which will scroll beyond the right border of the box?
Second, I have a multi-select list box which is populated with an ID # column and a Description column. The user can select as many items from the list box as needed and, as the list box item is clicked, the ID # is added to a memo field on the form, with each ID # delineated with a coma. Is it possible to separate the memo field back out so that each item is identified individually (for report purposes)?
Thanx so much for your help with this...you guys/gals are simply the best!
Karen
