Search List Box With Text Box

Jun 2, 2010

I have a list box pulling information from a table. It include fields for last name, first name, primary number, secondary number, and id; of course with different names. I display first and last name, but the rest are hidden. What would be ideal is if I could begin typing someones first or last name in the text box and it would just start either narrowing the list, like in itunes, or would start skipping down the list and would be highlighted. For example. If I was searching the number for walmart, i could go to the text box and type "wal" and it might highlight "wallace, james"; and if I added and "m" to that, it would skip down to "walmart".

I would settle for autofill and click a search command button when I'm done, and it takes me to that entry in the list box. I copied some code off the internet. Don't know if it'll work, but here is what I got.

Private Sub txtSearch_AfterUpdate()
Dim srchstrng As String
srchstrng = Me.txtSearch.Value
SQL = " SELECT Phone.last_name, Phone.first_name FROM Phone_"
WHERE (((Phone.last_name) Like '*" & srchstrng & "*'));"
Form.RecordSource = SQL
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdRefreshPage
End Sub

It says there is a problem with the where clause.

May 10, 2015

I have a form with two text boxes and a button. I want to be able to type a value into the first Text box click the button and the second text box to be filled with the value which is stored in the Table.

The first Textbox is called barTxt, The second Textbox is called CustTxt The button is called SearchBtn and the Table is called BookInTable. I have been trying to use the code.

Code:

Private Sub SearchBtn_Click()
DoCmd.FindRecord Me.BarTxt.Value, , True, , True
CustTxt.Value = "SELECT BookInTable.Customer FROM BookInTable " & _
" WHERE Customer = """ & Nz(Me.BarTxt) & """" & _
" ORDER BY Customer"
End Sub

This however instead of displaying the Value for customer which is stored in the BookInTable. Displays The code SELECT BookInTable.Customer FROMBookInTable " & _ " WHERE Customer = """ & Nz(Me.BarTxt) & """" & _ " ORDER BY Customer"

List Box Linked To A Search Query

Feb 23, 2008

Hello,

I have been searching the forum for this scenario but could not find similar case, which is as follows:
I have a Search Form with many Text and Combo boxes, linked to search criteria in a query. There is also a sub-form showing the search results.
I am trying to replace one of the combo boxes on the form, with a List Box, so I can make multiple selections. For example instead of showing only "buy" transactions via the combo, I want to see both "buy" and "sell" transactions, which I believe could be done via a List Box.

For the combo box I have the following:
In the Field section I have:
[TransactionType]=[Forms]![frmSearchTransHist]![cboTransType] Or [Forms]![frmSearchTransHist]![cboTransType] Is Null

For Criteria I have - "True"

So, my question is what should I put on the query in order to make it work with a list box.

I also want to give credit here to Jon K who has an example of database with combos and texts - very helpful example!
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=103312

Any help is greatly appreciated!
Rgds,
Atol

Form Search Combobox - Not In List Message

Jan 24, 2007

When you use a combobox to search values in the form - and someone searches for a value that isn't there - the form just defaults to the first entry. Is there a way of putting a message box that says "This is a new patient" (or something like that). The NotInList event doesn't work - any ideas??

Modules & VBA :: Grabbing Values From Search List Box

Jun 30, 2014

I was able to create a very user-friendly pop-up search form : {URL] .....

I would like to take it a step further... Now, I would like to grab the selected record ID from within one of the list box columns and use it in my SQL statement (to copy the record into a new one). Is there any way to reference a highlighted record value within a list box recordset directly and/or any workarounds?

I know one would be to grab the ID and insert it into the text box, just don't know what the coding references would be for this.

Forms :: Checkbox / List Box And Unbound Keyword Search

Aug 7, 2013

I'm relatively new to Access 2010. I have an excel spreadsheet that I've converted into an access table for the purposes of creating a user friendly form for the end user to search for relevant criteria to retrieve a list of records that fit the requests. There are two main search functions: unbound keyword search (90+ keywords), and either a series of checkboxes or one list box that lists specific countries/regions matched in a column (columns, as I will get to shortly). The region selection is bound by a selection of 15 countries.

The key is each record can correspond to more than one country. This, one record can have "Belgium, Germany, brazil" and the next record can just have "brazil". Thus if someone selects brazil, the query must retrieve the Belgium Germany brazil record in addition to the record that covers just brazil. I've tried to do this with a concatenated column that list all countries and a text box search, I've tried to do this with individual checkbox columns for each country with checkboxes in the search form...and I can't get it to work. I don't fully understand the criteria to set for checkboxes or list boxes. What would be the best way to build this form, an how?

Queries :: Search Box Result - Add Up List Of Dates That Match A Criteria

Jun 13, 2013

I am trying to add up a list of dates that match a criteria... a search box result.

I have tried DCount, and now I'm doing it through SQL, and no matter what combinations I try I still get an error - usually 3075 - Syntax error (missing operator)

But I can't find anything missing - I copy the SQL into a query view and it works perfectly... but it won't work on its own. And I've tried using DCount with the query as a query object, and I get the same error.

Code:
Dim ResultCount As Long
Dim DateSearch As Date
Dim MyDate As String
Dim MyDateAdd As Date
Dim varReturnValue As Variant

[Code] .....

I've used the >= And < option as it solves an issue with Date Time. What operator is missing!?

However, it returns nothing while it should return a lot of records if I make a query like this:

SELECT * FROM people WHERE PhoneNo="";

The PhoneNo file is of text type. As I know, this field is added after the MS database has been put into use for some time.

Can anyone please explain this to me?

Partial Text Search Facility

Feb 28, 2008

I’m trying to provide the users of my database with a text search facility.

The database deals with documents, and I’d like the user to be able to search by title of document, with partial text matches. E.g. a title might be ‘Health and safety at work act’ - so searching by Health and/or safety gives this document as a result.

The table is called ‘tblDocTitle’ with the field ‘Title’ containing just that.

Ideally the search facility would be some sort of text box in which the text, and then a button to initiate that search.

Hope you can help

Modules & VBA :: Text Search Box - On Key Down Nested IF

May 24, 2014

Ok I'm building a Text Search box that "Live Filters" the results in a ListBox control on the same form.

After typing in a value (Say, for Customer First Name like "Steven") I want the code to do the following:

1. If there is no value in the listbox that matches when the user presses the enter key....open the New Customer form - THIS WORKS

2. If there is a single value in the list, then open this record in the customer form when the user presses the Enter key Receiving a Syntax Missing Operator error on this line:

Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmContacts", , , "[ID]=" & Me.ListCustomers.Column(0)

However, I use this exact code on a button elsewhere in my project (NOT within an IF Function) and it works perfectly fine!

Code:
Private Sub txtSearch_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
If KeyCode = vbKeyReturn Then
If Me.ListCustomers.ListCount = 0 Then
CmdNewCustomer_Click

[Code] .....
