Searching Form Header

Apr 14, 2006

Hi all. This is one has been troubling me for quite a while and once more I seek for solution to the right (hope so) place.

I have imported from a Excel a table and based on that table I created a form. But when I try to add a combo box on the form header in order to search for a particular record to display on screen the error on the attachment occurs. I didn't add even a single character of code, and the error message seems weird.

I tried doing the same thing on another pc (an older one) and it is working fine...I've added search via combo boxes in the past without any problems but this time something isn't going right.

Any clues?

Forms :: Copying Field Values From Form Header To The Form

Sep 18, 2014

I have form named home page in this homepage form in the form header i have inserted some fields from some tables like province, district, community etc. these fields are unbound and are used for filtering purposes, when i select a province all districts related to that province displayed and when i select a a district all related communities displayed, there is a one to many relationship between district table and community table,

What I want is, when i select a district on the form header(it is unbound as i explained before) of this homepage form, the DistrictID should appear in community subform under DistrictID(as there is a one to many relationship between district and community) .

For more clarification find the snap shot attached...

Form Header Causes Flicker

Sep 1, 2005

The problem: If a form's header is set to visible, all objects on the form will flicker when the scrollbar is used.

This problem has annoyed me for some time and I figured to do a little testing. I have narrowed the problem down to when the form header is visible, all objects flicker. I was wondering if anyone knows a solution to this or if anyone has similar experiences with this problem. I have done some searches and haven't found any solutions. I have a set of form controls that I want on top all the time but don't like toolbars. I prefure to customize the look myself. Any solutions/help/words would be awesome. Thanks for your time.

Filter Issue In Form Header

May 12, 2006

I have a basic knowledge of access and therefore not VB conversant. So any advice please keep simple.

I have created a form with which I already total the sum of the value of all records in the form header, using sum function. When filtering the form the expression returns the correct value for the record set filtered on.

What I also want to achive is a total value for certain records within the filter. I have tried DSum function and IIF argument unsuccesfully.

The record information is as follows:

Form name: Reservations
Field to sum: [No]
Condidtion: Where the [SalesItemID]='EP006'

Expression used:

=DSum(" [No] ","Reservations","[SalesItemID]= 'EP006' ")

This does return the correct number of SalesItem=EP006 in the form when the form is unfiltered, although it does not change to display the value of the records in the filtered set.

Anyone give me some not too technical direction.

Many thanks

Filling In Report Header With A Form Value

Jun 15, 2013

I currently have a form that will simply display the values from a query, which was called by a form. What I want is for the header (a text box) in the report to have the value that the user selects from the form that calls the report. Also, when the form calls the report, it only prints it off. I would like to know how the form can just display the report instead.

Form Header - Can I Move It To Side Of Form?

Sep 6, 2006

Hi all, I basically have a long form which requires me to use the right side scroll bar to complete everything.

I currently have a top header area (which is great because it is viewable even as you scroll all the way down).

I'm wondering if Access is capable of having a "side header" (for lack of better words), i.e. on the right hand side have just a few buttons or fields that always stays there even though I scroll all the way down the form? This would work the same way as the header, just on the side instead.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Freezing Header Of A Form In Overlapping Tabs Instead Of Tabbed Documents

Feb 16, 2015

I have a form (frmMain) which has a header with some basic links and text boxes I would like to keep as a frozen pane on top as the user are scrolling down the detail section of the form. The detail section does include a subform if that makes a difference (frmhome). When going to Options>Current Database> tabbed documents, the form header stays frozen perfectly.

I however would like to use "Overlapping windows" as the form center aligns in the Access window instead of left aligning when using "tabbed". So either :

1) how do I keep the header frozen in "overlapping" or
2) how do I center align the form in "tabbed" view, as right now the form just wants to go as far left as possible in the full Access window.

Searching On Form

Jul 21, 2005

http://lemmikki.uw.hu/promotion.JPG

Okay, this is how my form looks. I have thousands of records, but in a special way. I would like to make a search having the email, when and what together. The table is like this:


email1@xyz.com 20050712 E0001
email2@xyz.com 20050712 E0001
email3@xyz.com 20050712 E0001
email2@xyz.com 20050712 E0002
email3@xyz.com 20050712 E0002
email1@xyz.com 20050720 E0003
email2@xyz.com 20050720 E0003
email3@xyz.com 20050720 E0003
email4@xyz.com 20050720 E0003
email1@xyz.com 20050720 E0004
email4@xyz.com 20050720 E0004

Okay, there's a key for finding the records, but searching by it is quite difficult. Searching by these 3 data would make it easier. But it's quite difficult for me. I would like to have 3 lists (on the picture I have 2 so far) and a button that I can press and the record would come out...


Can someone help me?

Modules & VBA :: Searching Form Along With Other Forms In One Navigation Form

Jun 11, 2013

I have used one of the members' code which was posted in a tread before to create a search box in a form. This code works perfectly when the form itself is open. Otherwise, when I put this searching form along with other forms in one navigation form, I get the following error: "Enter Parameter Value: Forms!FRM_SearchMulti!SrchText"...The code that was used for the Search box is as following:

Private Sub SearchFor_Change()
'Create a string (text) variable
Dim vSearchString As String
'Populate the string variable with the text entered in the Text Box SearchFor
vSearchString = SearchFor.Text

Forms :: Filtering Records Which Form Will Initially Display From Header File

May 30, 2015

I have a header/detail form working well. I use a Dsum to update a TOTAL field in the header - based on all the detail records for that Header.

However, I want to 'filter' or condition the records which the form will initially display from the Header file. I have a conditioning field (Invoice date) in the header which should 'block' it from display on the form. I may also desire to SORT the selected Headers record into a different sequence before display...

Looks like any "filtering" I try on the header table makes it difficult to go back and update the TOTAL in the Header?

Hi,

Me and my friend are making a database for a DVD rentals business and we're having trouble with searching within a form. We want to be able to perform a search in a form by clicking on a button within the form rather than using a query or filter, and we want the results to be displayed within the form in the available fields.

Many thanks!

I have a form I am using to search for records based on any number of criteria. The one I am having a problem with is a model number search. I would like to search based on a from value and a to value.......for instance........let's say you had the following items:

bird

bite
bitter

If I want to search for values from bir to birt, I would get bird, birdbath and birth. How can I code my query value to look for values between two text boxes in a form?

Using Asterix In Form For Searching Records

Mar 30, 2006

Hello All

I've been looking and abusing the search function on this forum for this particular obstacle but no luck.

The client im building a database for wants a search form and everyone who used the old system are used by using *'s in their search criteria.
I know how I can use *'s in queries but its fixed (I think).
I want to let the end user use * when they want to pin down a particular product. So they just type in a part of a word and use a * at the end, middle or before.

Or should I just abandon the idea of using them in input form controls?
I know this works because I have seen it before, too bad I had no access to the source of it.

I hope someone comes up with some ideas, pointers or howto's

Thank you guys in advance
