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
i have got the bellow code that filters a listbox which is based on a query, from a textbox. The code works fine and it Filters, but if i put in too many characters that do not exsit in the data( so it cant display any results) i get an error saying Run time error 2105 - You cant go to the Specified record? how i can catch this error so it does nothing apart from display a blank listbox with no error?
code:
Private Sub txtSearch_Change() Me.lstShowSupplier.Requery DoCmd.Requery Me.txtSearch.SetFocus If Not IsNull(Len(Me.txtSearch)) Then Me.txtSearch.SelStart = Len(Me.txtSearch) End If End Sub
I am creating a a text box where the user enters a text then clicks an option from the option that is used as the criteria for the search e.g. Last Name, Phone , address then a command button wil run a query.
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"
I have a table called Bear Sighting, A form called Search by observer.. A list box, containing all the observer names. I would like to be able to search through the database table 'bear sightings' and display only the sightings by the observer that I have clicked on... I would like to display them 2 different way at the same time... once in a list box and then again see them at the bottom of my form, displayed as records that you would see in the design view of my table... any can help, that would be great... I am not too familiar with the program so I will need specific details if you could thanks...
I created a list box from the patient info with the following
Last Name First Name Social Security Date of birth Account Number
I created a text box above the list box to search records but dont know how to link the two
Also created Option buttons
Last Name First Name Social Security Date of Birth Account #
So if i need to search by last name i click on the last name option box and type the last in the search text above the list box and so forth any ideas.
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
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??
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.
I have used John Big Bootys Dynamic Search Form, however to search on the fields I want I have created a query which has mutiple tables and when I get a duplicate value in the search box, i.e. in Client, there are 2 client "A"s and when I click on one it automatically chooses both.From here I want to create a double click event to open that records in a form, but I can't if it defaults to both records.
Is it possible to make a form where you have two textboxes to search a table and show the search results in a list under the textboxes? Also making the list items clickable?
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?
I have created a multi field search form that have 2 textbox and 2 multiselect listbox(extended). How to make the search form query correctly? Below are the details.
I also have a button that run the query qrySearchForm .how am I going to make the query run successfully with multiselect listbox ? I understand that there are a lot of examples of the vba code for multiselect but that is only for multiselect alone and not like my search form that combine textbox and multiselect listbox.
I have a master data table containing 4 columns and ~ 500K rows. I have a list of keyterms from column1, column2 and column3. How do I use Access to search the masta data table and return the corresponding column4 value for each row on the list.
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!?
I have made my Search Form that will search through my tables, some how I have a syntax error for the following: year, Section and ID, these fields are not text I use numeric values so I think the search is not working for that reason, I am not sure how can I fix it though do I have do add val() or sth.

I was told that there is no need to use "like", am not really sure how to do it, any help will be appreciated.
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.
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:
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
