Save Subform Changes

Nov 22, 2011

Sendkeys "^s" - Ctrl-S to save the app isn't working.I need to get access to save layout changes made by a user to a subform.I have a subform and some controls on the main form that alter the layout of the subform - some checkboxes that hide and unhide the columns.I also have a button that exports the current contents of the subform to excel.

DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputForm, "MySubForm", acFormatXLS, OutputPath, AutoStart:=-1 (Very happy with how this works!)

The problem is that if the user hides or unhides columns using my checkboxes, these changes are not picked up by the export to Excel until the user saves the subform by closing the form.So I need some code that forces changes made to the subform to be saved, without closing the subform.

DoCmd.Save acForm, "MySubForm" - doesn't work "RunTime Error 2489 - The object isn't open."

What DOES work is clicking the save button in the top left corner of the access application.Sendkeys "^s" for some reason doesn't do anything at all. Code that mimics the main SAVE button in access, or code that will specifically force my subform to save layout changes as it would when closing?

DoCmd.Save - Form And Subform

Oct 7, 2006

Hi all,

I have a form (Record Source = Report_TBL). I've brought in a subform (Record Source = Patient_TBL). I linked the 2 on the field PID.
I've added a command button (Submit).
OnClick for the Submit button I've added in the Event Procedure

Private Sub cmdSubmit_Click()

DoCmd.Save

End Sub

It only saves the data I've put in for the subform.

Can anyone give me any information on how to save all the information from both forms?

Thank you so much for your help!

Forms :: Save Calculated Subform Data To Table

Oct 20, 2014

What I'm trying to do: I have created an unbound field within a subform's footer to calculate the average of the displayed record values. The subform is in datasheet view. The records are returned based on a query with a relationship between two tables. I need the calculated data (which I currently have displayed on the main form) to populate within the master table.

I can't figure out how to automatically do this. I created a simple command to get it there, but I'd like the user not to need a button to display a calculation.

Main form based on TableA; subform based on TableB.

Here's how I have it set up (Btw, I suck at SQL I just figure this is easiest to read):

Query SQL looks like this: SELECT tblB.Field1, tblB.Field2 FROM tblB.Field1 INNER JOIN tblA ON tblB.Field1 = tblA.Field1

Main form: unbound txtbox = [Forms]![frmA]![subfrmA].Form.[txtAvg]

The field that is averaged is tblB.Field2. There are potentially a bunch of records displayed in the subform.

I need that [txtAvg] field to save to TableA. My command button is simply Me.tblA.FieldName = Me.unboundtxtbox. I'd like to do away with that.

I tried to use the on current or on load event for the main form; but the calculated field value is 0 until it calculates it. It seems like there is a short delay before the value shows up on the form at which point the on current or on load events don't pick up the calculated value; just the 0 that is initially there.

Modules & VBA :: Save User Entry As Part Of Hyperlink Then Display In Subform

Nov 21, 2014

I have a form with multiple textboxes and comboboxes that allow for user entry, and a subform displaying a table, where the entries from the form are saved and can be retrieved. It's basically a way of creating new task entries and editing existing ones from a single interface.

One of the fields is an "issue number" of sorts, which is a 5-digit code that identifies the task. We have a website where details of each task are stored, and the URL format is akin to this: [URL] ....

The functionality that I'm hoping for is that when the user saves the record, it will be saved as the full link address, by concatenating the static first portion of the address and the code entered by the user. However, I need the table to still only display the code, not the whole link address, and will follow the full address when clicked in the subform table.

Forms :: Make Certain User Enter Records On Subform Before Attempting To Save Main Form

Dec 4, 2014

How can I make certain my user enters records on a subform before attempting to save the main form? Right now they can completely ignore the subform before saving the record.The Main form has business address, etc. on it. the subform is bound to a join table that lists the multiple categories, subcategories and sector the business is listed in for a directory.

I already have my fields set to required at the table level in the join table, and have some existing VBA in both my subform (to update edited date) and my form (to validate empty records where a certain condition is met) but that's not the issue...

How do I focus the user to enter a record on the subform to the point where they are forced to enter something and complete the subform before the record is updated.

"Save Record" Button In A Subform To Also Refresh The Data In The Main Form

Mar 26, 2005

I have a form which contains one subform. On the subform I have a command button which saves the record just entered. On the main form I have a "refresh form data" button which updates the main form so that the calculated controls can show the correct results based on the data just entered?

Can anyone tell me how I can get the "save record" button in the subform to subsequently refresh the data in the main form as well, thus saving a button???


Many thanks.

So what do I need to add to this line to specify the file type?

Any help appreciated!

Why Can't I Save Changes After An Error?

Jul 18, 2006

I previously posted this in one of the other forums, but now believe this to be of a more general nature, and am still without a satisfactory explanation or any workaround:

I'm working on a new database with Access 2003, using the 2002-2003 file format. While debugging a VBA code module in the VB editor, whenever I get a runtime error something strange happens - I stop the debugger, correct the code and attempt to save my changes, and Access displays the message "Microsoft Office Access can't save design changes or save to a new database object because another user has the file open. To save your design changes or to save to a new object, you must have exclusive access to the file." It then persists in denying me the ability to save ANYTHING until I close the VB editor, close the Access application, and then start over again. In fact, there is no other user - all other machines on the network are turned off, and no other instances of Access or the VB editor are open.

Needless to say, this is slowing my development efforts to a crawl, and I'm totally stumped by it - I never remember running into this problem in years of working with Access 97 (where I can hit errors, stop execution, make any needed corrections to code or other objects, and re-run the application, without having to exit). I'm running this on a P4 3.4 GHz box with 1 GB of RAM. Going into Tools, Options, Advanced and switching the "Default open mode" between Shared and Exclusive makes no difference.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
