Hi,
I'm using a scrollable mouse and I'am always accidently hitting it while in access 2003 and it keeps changing the records, Is there a fix for this with out changing to a non scrollable mouse?
On a form I have an scrollable listing of all records in my database, alphabetized by last name. There are alot of records so I would like to have a 'Search' text box -- that is, I would like to be able to type letters of the last name in the 'Search' text box and as each letter is typed I would like to see the records scroll to the first "last name' that starts with the text I have typed so far. Any ideas ... Thanks ahead of time!
I have a data entry form in Access 2000, and when people scroll the mousewheel or press tab enough times, all the data they've entered disappears! Is there anyway to prevent this? I have instructions on getting a .dll to block the mousewheel, but nothing for the tab, any help?
Anyone know what impact it would have to my table if people used mouse/tab to clear their data, and then added data to the blank form? I presme it's just creating a new record, but I could be wrong.
I am looking for the ability to have a scrollable window inside of a tab.
My database is tabbed into categories of data.
One of these categories has more than the others.
I would like to create a rectangle inside the tabbed area which I can put the questions in but the box is too small, so instead of creating tabs inside another tab, id rather have a scrollable section inside in which I can put the questions in...
I'm a noobie with Access, and on my form which displays Account information, I also want to display the multiple Addresses this account can have. I can't find any type of scrollable text box (something to look like a spreadsheet), and I know it's not a list box I need to use.
How do I create this and what is it called? I tried using a data grid but I dont think that is it either :confused:
Also, my scrolling text icon on the toolbox is greyed out, not sure why.
Hello to all, Here is my questions : 1) Is it possible to enable/disable mouse wheel in modifiable list (combo box) ? In access2000 i can't select a record on the list with mouse wheel. 2) Same thing in a form. In a form the wheel is active to go to next or previous record but sometime would like to disable it. Thks in advance
hey all I am having a problem, and most people dont seem to know what to say and not to give me any ideas. So here we go. I have a form which you can scroll through the reocrds, with the mouse wheel, or through the navagation command buttons with I have created. However when I use my mouse wheel the record changes but it doesnt change my activeX Control. When I use my command buttons it changes. However I would like to have both the options so anyone have any ideas on how to get the activeX Control to change with the rest of my record?? Thanks
In Access (2003) I was able to (by default?) scroll through records with the mouse scroll wheel. That no longer works. How can I have the form scroll backwords and forwards with the mouse wheel?
I've been reading threads and it sounds like MS "fixed" a feature that I was relying on heavily to move through records. I can't find a way to enable it again......
Hello, I have two images (img1 and img2) and I want to have img1 visible when the form opens and when I run the mouse over img1 it changes it to visible = False and img2 is visible = True. Also when I mouse off the image it changes back to img1… How is this done? Thanks!
how can i stop wheel mouse scrolling on certain forms? it is ok on some forms but others where specific data is viewed can be scrolled to a blank space.
Is there an option so that turning the mouse wheel will scroll through the screen rather than scrolling through the different records in a form? Thanks! :confused:
I need a way at preventing users from using the scroll funtion on mouses from creating a multitude of balnk records and hence was looking at ghudson better mouse trap as a way of doing this... this is the way forward isnt it?
Looking at the code it starts with... 'For those of us not using Access XP, we have a challenge to prevent 'our users from advancing to another record if they do not use the controls 'we want them to use or to prevent them from bypassing our validation 'procedures too ensure the current record is okay to be saved.
How do you prevent this from happening in Access XP?? Access XP = 2002 does it not?
First off sorry about the really bad layout…..I don’t know how to do all the fancy stuff but really wanted to share this because it seams like a lot of people wanted help with this.
So here is what I have going on.
I have a form to add a record, and I have a number of fields, then an “Add Record” button and a “Cancel Record” Button. What I wanted to do was:
A: Stop the form from going to another “New Record Form” when moving the mouse wheel B: Stop the form from going to another “New Record Form” when pressing the “Tab” key
Here is what you got to do to solve the mouse problem:
1.) Create a field in the form that has the Name “MouseWheel Move”, and set the “Visible” property to “No” 2.) Enter the Fallowing: Private Sub Form_Load() Me![MouseWheel Move] = "No" End Sub 3.) Enter The Fallowing: Private Sub Form_MouseWheel(ByVal Page As Boolean, ByVal Count As Long) Me![MouseWheel Move] = "Yes"End Sub 4.) Enter The Fallowing: Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) If Me![MouseWheel Move] = "Yes" Then DoCmd.CancelEvent Me![MouseWheel Move] = "No" End If End Sub
Here is what you got to do to solve the Tab problem:
The last item on my form is my “Cancel” button; so when the focus is on my “Cancel” button (ie. the last item on the form) and I press tab I want the focus to go to the first field on my form.
Private Sub Cancel_Button_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer) If KeyCode = 9 Then Me![Field Name for the First Item on the Form].SetFocus End If End Sub
One more thing, I am using Microsoft Access 2002 (10.6771.6735) SP3 and it works fine
does anyone know how to stop the scroll wheel on a mouse from scrolling through records whilst users are trying in imput data to forms? I assume there is some vb code that could be used.
I have a form, that is longer than the height of the screen, so the user must scroll down to get to it all. If the user uses the scroll bar all is well. If they try to use their mouse wheel to go down the form jumps to the next record.
How can I stop the form from doing this. If it doesn't want to scroll down with the mouse wheel I can live with that, but it should not go to the next record with this.
Just something I hate and been frustrated about and would like to know whether it can be solved. I don't know about your PC but my mouse's wheel does not work in the Visual Basic Editor. This applies to all Office apps.
When I scroll the wheel, nothing moves. It works great in other apps, though, such as Explorers, ....
Is it something that was meant at designed or am I missing something here?
My main form has 2 “Continuous Forms” sub forms. The cycle of the sub forms is set to “All Records”
Is there a way to exit the first sub form and move the focus to the second sub form utilizing only the keyboard? (Like shift + tab, or any custom buttons) I’m trying to avoid using the mouse
