The control source for the text box is a Number field called FileNo in a Table called File. THe default value of the text box is 0.
When the button is clicked a value is calculated using the last value under FileNo in the Table.
The problem is that I have to either navigate the records or close the form in order to save the new value onto the Table.
I need to be able to save a new value to the Table as soon as it is generated without having to close or navigate. So that I get some new value everytime I click the button without closing the Form.
(when the button is clicked 1 will be added to the last value under FileNo on Table File)

I have a "Search" form that I am using to search through a query in a list box of all of my Customers. Once the record that I am wanting to view comes up I highlight it and click a "View" button to bring up another form with the customers full record. When this form is open I am able to update the customer information and add User's to it if necessary.
My problem comes after I click on my save and close button that takes me back to me search form. I want to close the search form and the error I get is "The record cannot be deleted or changed because table "tblUserProfile" includes related records." I click OK and get a SECOND error stating "You can't save this record at this time. MS Access may have encountered an error while trying to save a record. If you close this object now, the data changes you made will be lost. Do you want to close the database object anyway?"
I have already made my changes and saved them in the form with the customer record so am not sure why I am getting an error when trying to close the Search form.
I have a user login form wherein my users authenticate their employeeid as well as their person PIN. If the user authenticates with a valid username/ password combination, then the employee id and the role (permissions) for that user are stored on the form and it is minimized to stay open. If the user that authenticates has "Admin" role then I want to unhide the navigation pane. For all other roles I want the navigation pane to remain hidden.
That said, the default setting in the database is for the navigation pane to remain hidden. I have a piece of code on the login form as follows:
Code: If Me.role = "Admin" Then DoCmd.SelectObject acTable, "NavigationPaneObject", True DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdWindowUnhide Else Exit Sub End If
This is successfully unhiding the navigation pane, but I'm getting the following error message and I don't know how to get it to go away."Run-time error '2544':
"Microsoft Access cannot find the NavigationPaneObject you referenced in the Object Name argument."The code is unhiding the navigation pane.
I have a form with 55 values entered. On closing the form, I need it to decide if this is a new record. If it is a new record, it loads all 55 values into an array. If all values are above 20,000, it goes ahead and closes the form. If any are below 20,000, it writes the record to another table and brings up that form to add add a comment.
Every thing does as it should except determining if it is a new record. What property will trigger it properly? All the properties I have tried either triggers it on all the records (even if it is an old record) or it does not trigger it and closes without prompting the code.
I have a statistical program and the user constantly use the form to check calculations and get out without saving a record. In order to allow this with out writing to the table I used unbound fields and an accept and close command buttons.
This worked well until I added a subform to one of the forms. Now, if I just open that form and then click the close button, I get a blank record in the table associated to the main form. Is there a way to stop this?
I have a form (frmAuditEntry) that includes a subform (sfrmAuditDetail). The user will enter audit information on the subform. There is a check box on the subform to identify containers that had errors in selection. When the box is check by the user, a pop up form opens where the user can enter the details regarding the type of error. The audit number and the container ID are carried over from the main form to the pop up form to link the information.
This is the code I have in the AfterUpdate event of the checkbox:
Private Sub Errors_AfterUpdate() Dim rs As Object Dim strBookmark As String strBookmark = Me.ContainerID Me.Requery
[Code] ....
This works great and keeps the focus on the record the user checked having errors so the right information transfers tot he pop up form fields. When the pop up form is closed, the focus goes back to the subform but keeps the focus on the container ID control of the record that the user previously checked as having errors (hope that makes sense).
What I would like to happen is this: When the pop up form is closed, I want the focus to go back to the subform but to go to the last blank record on the subform (if the user moved off the record before checking the error checkbox) or go to a new record (if the user did not move to a new record already before checking the error checkbox).
After I enter data into one field in a record I would like the form to save the record when I move to another field in the same record. It seems that the record is only saved when I exit it entirely. Is there a way to save a record when moving between fields in that record? Can this be done without using an Event Procedure for each field?
I am working on a database and i have notice after making a form that when i enter a record using a form if i enter incomplete data on the form access automatically save that record and generate a id for that record.
For example I have a table that contain
StudentID,StdName,FatherName,DOB,Adress,Phone
And I have created a form for that table that also containing these fields.
Here I want to do that on the form I want a "Save" button , and the purpose of this button that when I click on this button then MS Access Save the record and then generate the ID for that record and if i close my form without pressing "SAVE" button access do not save that incomplete record.
I have a popup called by a subform to add a new record or edit a selected record. I keep getting "Runtime error 32502". The value you entered isn't valid for the field "|"
I have no required fields and all the drop down related fields have the right value type in them (That I can find)The only "|" reference I can find is in the OpenArgs content below when I load the form. If I'm adding a new record I pass two fileds via the OpenArgs
Private Sub Command52_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "AddDebtorPaymentFrm", , , , acFormAdd, OpenArgs:=Me![DebtorId] & "|" & Me![MatterId] End Sub
or if I'm modifying a record from the subform on click I
Private Sub Text38_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "AddDebtorPaymentFrm", acNormal, , "[Transactions].[TransId] = " & Me.TransId, acFormEdit End Sub
Below is the Popup Load code
Private Sub Form_Load() If Me.DataEntry = True Then Me.VariableHeading = "Add A Debtor Payment"
I have a form that I want to open on a new record (with an Autonumber-based ID string that is a calculated field) and this uses a hidden field in the form when it opens to spawn a new record, ready to be related to some additional items in a join table. The user selects those from a list box.I want to add a "return to main menu without saving" button, but not matter what code I use, it obstinately continues to save the record.
Code: DoCmd.Close acForm, "JobPlanfromCAFs", acSaveNo on the command button - no effect.
I also tried this code on the form's BeforeUpdate method. No effect. The new record continues to exist.
Code: If Not (Me.NewRecord) Then If MsgBox("Would You Like To Save The Changes To This Record?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton1, "Save Changes to Record ???") = vbNo Then Me.Undo End If Else If MsgBox("Would You Like To Save This New Record?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton1, "Save This Record ???") = vbNo Then Me.Undo End If End If
I suppose I can 'query out' incomplete records at other places in the database, but it's annoying to not be able to return to the same JobID again if you don't save it.
I have a form to add a record to a table. How can I give the user a way to close this form without saving the just created record.
I tried
If me.dirty then DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord endif
This works, but gives a messagebox in return to confirm the command, and I don't want that. And I try to avoid sendkeys. I also don't want to change the options of access.
How can I iterate over all the records in a table and get each value from a field in each record? I want to get each value from the field, do something to it, then add it to a combobox. Is there a way to do this simply?
i have a combobox with two subforms and 1 main form.
the mainform is based on a query When i scroll, the records change, and the subforms corespond properly. BUT, when i use the combobox to change the records, i cant select anything. I see the list in the combox, but when i click i get the message: Cannot change value. Type autonumber.
Can i get rid of the record navigation bar at the bottom of a form? if so i can have a control button that will go the next record but how can i stop 2 people going to the same record?
ClientsID (PK) blah blah Information and Referral (a check box) blah blah blah blah
ClientIR (the form that opens up when I & R is checked)
IR ID (PK) ClientsID (FK to the above form) Requests (a lookup referencing to IRCategory)
The code is set up so when the I R box is checked, form will open, and unchecking it will delete the I R record of that Client.
The problem is when the IR Box is already open, the request has been selected, I cannot save it as Access says a record is required in the Clients form. There are only two buttons, one goes on to next requests (one client can have more than one requests), other saves and closes.
The Client form is already coded so it will save the Client's record before opening the IR Form, and either button will save the IR record as well.
I had referential intergrity turned on. Turning it off only gave me weird results (I was able to input records, but Access didn't autofill the ClientID in the IR records, and looking at Clients returns a blank IR record)
Ok, I am trying to make some sort of thumbnail preview form. The image appears in the imgBox no problem, and it is grabbing it from the field. When I use a combo box to navigate the records it works flawlessly
HOWEVER, I would like my users to be able to press bckwds/fwds arrows so i made some arrows with the wizard and added some code. Heres how it looks
--------------------------------------- Private Sub cmdNext_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdNext_Click
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNext Me.Requery If Me!SamPhoto = "" Or IsNull(Me!SamPhoto) = True Then imgSamPhoto.Picture = "" lblNoPhoto.Visible = True Else lblNoPhoto.Visible = False imgSamPhoto.Picture = Me![SamPhoto] End If MsgBox Me!SamPhoto Exit_cmdNext_Click: Exit Sub
Private Sub Form_Load() DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acFirst End Sub
------------------------------------------
My problem is that it never goes to the second record when i press next, and when i press back it says at end of recordset ( which makes sense ) but why would the back button work, and the fwd button do nothing ? I am hoping it is a small syntax error. Please help!
Hi there I found alot of nice tips here, thanks for that :) But I havent found exactly what I am looking for. I will keep searching but I thought I would post as well.
Here is my problem : I have to design a form that works like an old application form written in VFP7.
Basically a combo box chooses a customer, another combo box filtered by customer chooses a job. A third combo box filtered by Jobs chooses a stock.
There is a subform linked by Stock_ID that displays details of the stocks, amounts, locations, etc...
I want to limit record navigation to these combo boxes. Right now even with navigation buttons hidden and limiting tab cycle to current record; a user can use the mousewheel and page up / page down keys to change the current record in Stock table and thus changing the details in my sub form.
Does anyone know of a way to stop all record navigation unless I explicitly move the record pointer via code behind the combo boxes?
I will keep looking around here and will likely play with the Current event to reverse any changes made to the record pointer but it does not seem the best way to handle this.
I am trying to do a search for my Access form using a combo box. It works when I search by a field called institution. But I want the records to be displayed in descending order by date rather than by Id. What should I add to my code.
Code: Private Sub Combo21_AfterUpdate() Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Set rs = Me.RecordsetClone rs.FindFirst "[INSTITUTION] = """ & Me.Combo21 & """"If rs.NoMatch ThenMsgBox "No Act Account for company selected."Else 'Display the found record in the form.Me.Bookmark = rs.BookmarkEnd IfSet rs = NothingEnd Sub
Also I want users to perform a search by selecting an institution from one combo box then a date from another box. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Rather than using the 'Navigation' offered by MS Access I would like to have 2 text boxes, one that shows the total number of records in a recordset (DCOUNT works here) and one that shows the number of the current record, incrementing or decrementing as I click on the 'Next' and 'Previous' command buttons. Does anyone know if there is there a function that does this?
I have a little problem and do require help in fixing it. I am only 3% away from finishing the database (due today) but have a little bit of a problem on my hands. here it is:
I have a counter on my form that tracks which record is currently being viewed. the code for the counter is:
------counter code--------- 'Provide a record counter for using with ' custom navigation buttons (when not using ' Access built in navigation)
Dim rst1 As DAO.Recordset Dim lngCount As Long
Set rst1 = Me.RecordsetClone
With rst1 .MoveFirst .MoveLast lngCount = .RecordCount
End With
'Show the result of the record count in the text box (txtRecordNo) If Me.CurrentRecord = lngCount Then Command126.Enabled = False Command129.Enabled = False Else Command126.Enabled = True Command129.Enabled = True End If Me.txtRecordNo = "Record " & Me.CurrentRecord & " of " & lngCount & " record(s) for " & [CLIENT PREFIX] Me.Text292 = "Record " & Me.CurrentRecord & " of " & lngCount & " records" ----------counter code---------
On the same form, I have a delete button. The button deletes the current record that is being viewed (user prompted before it is deleted). The code for that button is as follows: ----delete code----- Private Sub command271_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdDelete_Click
DoCmd.SetWarnings False If MsgBox("Are you sure you want to delete this Audit and its associated measures?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton2, "Delete?") = vbYes Then DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectRecord DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord
CLIENT_NAME.SetFocus End If Exit_command271_Click: DoCmd.SetWarnings True Exit Sub Err_cmdDelete_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_command271_Click End Sub -------delete code--------
This button also works fine with the exception of the following. THE MAIN PROBLEM: example I have a client that has 5 different entries in my database (5 diff. facilities) and I want to delete one of their facilities. I would simply use my 'search' form and then navigate to the facility that I would want to delete. If that facility is facility 1, 2, 3, or 4 then I have no problems. The system deletes the selected record and then simply displays the one after. The PROBLEM is when you are trying to delete the 5th record. When the fifth (in this example, it could be the 9th record for any other client, as long as it is the last one) is the one to be deleted, an error occurs. When you hit the debug button the following line from the counter is highlighted: .MoveLast
I have solved this problem and I no longer get an error message BUT when the last record is deleted, the database simply loads a new and empty form that will accept data. I DO NOT WANT THIS TO HAPPEN. I want it to be set up as follows: If the last record (not the ONLY record, but the last record on file) is the one that is to be deleted THEN delete that record and load the one prior If there is ONLY ONE record, then delete it and load the main form.
Hi all, We have an Access 2000 db on a server that I can open. Problem is, when other users open it up and use the Navigation buttons to say, view the next record, Access crashes with the following error: "Method 'Requery' of object '_Subform' failed." (this is the Access supplied record navigation functionality - I havent customised it in any way)
Other users have been using it before with no problem (upto last week). I can still open the db and do not have any errors... So, it appears to be a user related problem.
Any suggestions or things I should check out, please?
I am using Access 2007 and am a former user of an old flat-file 32 bit program under Windows 3.x. I am fairly new to MS Access 2007. I run a filter or query, which will return X number of records. Then, I will search those X records by specific text, such as "assist" from the record navigation buttons. I search for "assist" and the text will be highlighted each time it is found in any text or memo field in the record. Hitting Enter takes me to the next occurrence and highlights the text. If "assist" occurs in 4 fields in a record, for instance, it will be highlighted in each of those 4 fields one by one as I hit Enter. The next Enter takes me to the next record and will then continue to the next occurrence of assist" in any of its fields. It will continue to highlight "assist" in those fields, in succession, until the last occurrence in all of those records is found, in which case Enter does not return "assist" anymore because the last occurrence has already been found.
This does not always work. Often, I get every occurrence of "assist," but in the current record only, even though the word exists in other remaining records that were returned with my original filters/query.
I've spent far too long searching for the answer to this. On my form's onCurrent event I want to check if I am on the last record and if so, disallow navigating to the next "record" which is blank. I'm not sure why Access will let this happen to begin with when selecting Next Record. Isn't that what New (blank) record is for?
