I am new to Access Forum and I have a very easy question:
I need to show a Progress Meter in a Form whilst my Dbase is running a Macro containing several Queries - these Queries are Delete, Append etc and finally a MsgBox.
Any ideas on How to do a Progess meter whilst the Macro is running??
Thanks
I have developed several applications in code which take anywhere from 15-30 minutes to run, depending on the amount of data and local server traffic. I would like my clients to be able to tell that their process is actually running through some kind of "percentage complete" status bar or progress indicator, rather than their computer sitting there with an hourglass visible for what seems like forever. I would like to set this up where it runs from the form which triggers the code or the like.....any easy way to set this up or any code repository make this easier?
Thanks. Happy new year to all!!
Hi,
I have a report and I am doing some SQL stuff at the back end on the report open. This takes a little time and I want to show the user that its working and I want to prevent him from double clicking the report again. So is there any way to show a progress dialog or something so that the user knows that the list is being built? Thanks in advance!

I have a form that, when I press a button it loads another form. The second form takes about 20-25 seconds to load due to the fact that the (split)DB is running over a network, and the form itself has many fields on it. I'm thinking that my users will think that their computer is locked up and keep closing out of the DB. I would like to add a progress meter or percent meter so the user will at least see that something is happening. Has anyone ever programmed one of these things, and if so, could you please give me some insight? Thanks.

How can I do a progress in bar in a do while. I export contract and during the export i want to have a progress bar.
do while

Loop
Hi,
I'm struggling with a very formal, not to say aesthetic, problem on one of my form used as a progress bar.
This form is very simple, it contains only one unbound control that is called "Percentage".
It displays the percentage of completion, when launching a report based on a somewhat "heavy" crosstab query (lots of records, etc.).
Anyway, the goal is to inform the user that the report is being processed, so that he knows wether he has time to get a coffee, or whatever he wants (the process may take as long as 2 or 3 mn).
As far as code is concerned, the variant "Percentage" is simply incremented in a loop included in the report design code, and refreshes the value of the "Percentage" control displayed in my form.
Everything works fine, except that I can't figure out a way to get rid of the cursor that stays in the unbound control : in fact, the percentage is displayed in reverse video, since the cursor focuses on the control at every iteration. Which gives my "progress bar" form quite an ugly look, and makes it difficult to read, whereas besides this "bug" it is perfectly satisfying.
Any idea anyone ?
Thanks in advance for this.
I am unable to print the progress bar of the syscmd, I have tried checning the progressbar too under the startup.When I put a debug point, it goes to that area and loops through it, by printing it in the immediate window, debug.print.
I have even put a msgbox, to see whether it is popping up, yes it does.I have tried Application.syscmd and syscmd, here I am gonna paste the coding.
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Public Sub ProgressMeterModule()
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset

I'm making a code to run a Progress Bar from different forms and as per their conditions. Have two forms:
1- Form1="frmProgressMeter"
2- Form2="frmDatabaseStwitcher"
3- Module1=for Functions
On frmDatabaseStwitcher, the code for Progress Bar is:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Declare Sub sapiSleep Lib "kernel32" _
Alias "Sleep" _
(ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)
[code]...
This code is working in two ways:
If I go with "SetProgressBar n / NOS" then progress bar shows 2% and then connecting process time.
Or
If I go with "SetProgressBar n + NOS" then progress works till 100% but then connecting process time.
Also
SetProgressBar (n / NOS) * 100 but then connecting process time.
I have a form that takes sever seconds to load, due in part to the number of records I suppose, however I would like to create a progress meter (form?) that will run while the form is loading. I have tried several different suggestions but none work. Can anyone help me?
Thanks

hi everyone,
just wondering if it was possible to have a box that returns the % completion of the current record depending on how much data/how many of the fields of the record have been filled out.
e.g. fields with containing data / total number of fields * 100
possible or not? if so...how is it done?
thanks, james
Is there any way to modify the progress bar so instead of saying "running query" it states the name of the query?
Like: Running Query [qryFRED] <progress bar>
I want a progress bar in a form that will increase from bottom to top . The data will from Access table. The bar will start from 0 to Maxvalue. The Maxvalue will be calculated as below:
Total number of batches in the table/ No. of working days between 14072014 and 31112014 / 2
So the above calculation will define the range of a progress indicator.
And now we have to show the % percentage that means how many batches have been scanned for today. For this the following calculations will be used:
Count total batches where scandate=today and scannedby<>null
Now this will show the percentage in the bar that means hopw much work has been completed.
The progress bar should move from bottom to top when % increases.
I want to display the message "Processing Record ? of ???..." on the screen while my vba code is running without interruption. Since the msgbox requires the user to click a button to continue, what is the simplest way to display this message on the screen without interrupting the program or requiring user interaction?

Something that can be visibly seen to know how a student is doing in a subject or in a class.
Now I use wininet.dll library to get file and calculate progress of downloading action it is something like this:
Code:
Do
If InternetReadFile(hRequest, VarPtr(Buffer(0)), BUF_SIZE, dwBytesRead) Then
If WriteFile(hFile, VarPtr(Buffer(0)), dwBytesRead, dwBytesWritten, 0) Then
' TODO:// calculate progress
dwStatus = (dwStatus + dwBytesWritten)
dwPercent = (dwStatus / dwFileSize) * 100
Debug.Print dwPercent
'form1.Caption = dwPercent '<-- change this

We are working on an access2000 database that will incorporate various "tutorial" or "training" elements in the db on how to use the db (mostly links to outside PDF files, etc.); the training elements guide users on how to do various data entry tasks, report generation, etc.
Is there a way, in Access, to track which "step" of the procedure a user is on? For instance, if they make it through Exercises 1-5, is there a way we can add some sort of indicator that lets them know, when they come back to it a week later, that they left off on Exercise 6? I have seen this done in various software tutorial packages, but I'm not sure how it is accomplished?
Any suggestions?
Basically, I've created a form to track maintenance requests for specific types of equipment. Basically it's like a ticketing system.
Once a user creates the request, I want to use a subform (I guess this is the best way) to let them add data to that specific main form record to track the progress of the request until the repair is made and the "ticket" is closed out.
Do I need to create another table for the "progress reports" (for lack of a better term) or should this be done using some sort of an append query?
I've seen plenty of sample databases where they have a box within a form that looks like a datasheet where these types of "update" notes can be added and then submitted with the click of a button, but I've never been able to get at the code behind it.
hi,
do you know where can I get a file sample of ms access database with the following features:
- entry of persons,
- entry of projects,
- calender of projects,
- payement for their work,
- print-out of vouchers,
- on-line access for persons to DB (with password).
i've looked around the internet and couldn't find anything. I would love to have this just as an example, to build my own on-this-sample-driven database.
i've done something in PHP but since VB and PHP are not similar, i really would love to have an example.
thank you for your help
Hi all,
I am on my way to building my first relational DB. Is anyone able to look at the attached sample and tell me if I am on the right track?
The DB is being desined to record Repair information carried out on a machine. (TblRepair)
The DB will also eventually record refurbished machines (TblRefurb) and also many other situations like stock control, etc.(yet to be designed). Before I go on I just want to check:
> Is this roughly correct so far?
> If I create a new record in the existing form, why can I not enter both UnitID and EmployeeID? Relationship conflict?
> Should I be building forms on a query? (I think the answer is Yes, just need confirmation).
> Is it because of a problem with the query I cannot enter details correctly? (as per the above question).
Any pointers would be very welcome. PS Sorry its v.old A97!
Hi,
Does anyone know where I can get a sample database that shows me a order form that rmoves items from stock as they are being brought?
Kind Regards

I've read-up on getting random records, but I need a little help.
I have a table with 200,000 SSN records. Fields: SSN, Plan Number
There are about 100 distinct plans.
How can I select a sample (random) SSN for each plan?:confused:
