Searching On Form
Jul 21, 2005

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?

Hi,
On my form i have a text box (txt_search) and a search button (cmd_search). Now when the button is pressed i want it to go to another form (that bit is done) and display the search results (the bit that is hard).
How can i get it so that when i click the button. It searches some predefined fields with the text in the txt_search once the button is clicked.
Thanks

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
[code]....

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?

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
birth
bill
birdbath
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?

I have a parent table called patient info. and a child table called fills. The database in the future will become very large, and will be difficult to find a particular patient in the parent table to update fills in the child table. How can I search through the parent table using a form for easy access to a particular patient so that I can update fills?
Thanks for those who help!

I have a form that assigns an Auto Reference Number to each record. Now the records are later edited. Is there a way that I can have the user enter the Reference number and come directly to that particular record that needs to be changed in the form. Like a dialog box that asks Enter Reference Number or something.

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

Hi everyone, i'm new from here!
i'm doing one of my school project, but i got a big problem with this.
from the photo, i've created a form like this. and i want to have a search system, searching data from table. so i've created 2 input box with 2 different searching methods.
both methods work the same. type in the Stuff ID and then click the search, datas will show like this.
but the problem is, i can't get the Search button working, whenever i press the search, it said that the Stuff ID can not be found. but i've that stuff id in my table!
Could anyone show me a solution of this. or is this method good? coz i'm not doing that with the VBA!
PS... sorry for chinese words. coz i'm from hong kong!

Hi,
I have a form that is based on a query with many fields. As an example there is a field called "Medium" which contains values such as "Oil on canvas", "Oil on wood" etc.
At the moment I have a filter which works fine but this doesn't allow me to search all records which have the word "Oil" as part of the Medium.
I would like to be able to search all fields on the form. I have looked at a few exmaples on the forums but could not find one that applies to my scenario.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.

I have a query and need it to filter between to dates that are entered into a form.
The dates are long date fields (dd/dd/dd hh/mm/ss)
I've used the following search criteria
Between #" & [forms]![frmSearch]![txtTimefrom] & "# And #" & [forms]![frmSearch]![txtTimeTo] & "#
But clearly I am missing something because when I go and save the query it comes up with the following error "the expression you entered has an invalid date value".
Been trying loads of different expressions but nothing seem to work.

I would like to filter a table with 3 fields: Name, Surname, and Chart number.I would like to have the results in a subform designed in the same form.In fact every patient can have several admisions (1, 2 or more).I have arranged the main form named men with 3 text unbound box (name, surname, CCN) and 2 button clear and run the query.I have created a query .The problem is that when i push the button the SQL starts and a different window is opened. I would like that when you type the name for example in real time the subform should select the record with that criteria. Moreover I would like that when in the subform appears the records with the criteria the users could click on the selected record to open a different form.

Hi there guys;
I'm after something quite complicated this time, so i'm going to do my best to explain it in the offchance that someone can help me out. I'm not sure that what i want is even possible, although i think it should be; i just dont know how to achieve it.
I have three entities; Table1, Query1, Form1.
Form1 and Query1 have both been created using Table1 with some basic data.
Form1 will have three text boxes titled:
Broker; Audit ID; Audit Date
Beneath these it will then have a search button.
The idea is that i will type "BrokerName" into the "Broker" field on the form, and using Query1, the search button will retrieve all lines of data that have "BrokerName" in the "Broker" field in the query. So it's like using the [Enter Broker Name] criteria in the query except the criteria is entered into a Form text box rather than a pop-up window. Does that make sense?
The remaining two fields, Audit ID and Audit Date, will need to ADD the data entered into those boxes on the form, in to the query. I *think* it needs to add the data in to the query before "BrokerName" is used to select the records with "BrokerName" in them.
After the records have been found using the "BrokerName" criteria, they would then be inserted as Subform1 on Form1. I figured i would need a refresh button for this to work effectively. I have already made a refresh button, but if anyone knows of a way to refresh it automatically after selecting the records i need, then that'd be great.
So i have the basic setup ready to go, i just dont know how to make Query1 use the criteria entered on Form1 to search specific data.
I really hope that makes sense, i'm not very good at explaining. Any help is hugely appreciated!
Thanks again.

The database is a patient database used for tracking Inpatient data and Handover (or Handoffs for those in the US). It has been merrily ticking over since December and has accrued several thousand records. To get access to this data in new and interesting ways Im trying evolve my rudimentary search function which currently only works for diagnosis, name and consultant (in otherword text fields).
Thus I have an unbound form that has various input boxes on it. I have borrowed some code to power the form and have replaced with own fields:
Code:
Dim criteria As String
Looks for input text and adds it to the final criteria to power the search list at the end based on field in this case txtDiagnosis
If Not IsNull(Me.txtDiagnosis) Then
If criteria <> "" Then criteria criteria & " and "
criteria = criteria & "txtDiagnosis like " & Chr(34) & "*" & Me.txtDiagnosis & "*" & Chr(34)
End If
[code]...
ISSUE 1:
I am struggling with the date search function. It doesn't work. Whether it is prudent to search for either a admitted date or a discharged date?
ISSUE 2:
I have a check box for "complications" that I'd like to be included on in the search.

I built a custom search form that uses unbound text boxes to set the criteria for a query. For example, I have an unbound text box, LastName on my search form. Then in the query, I set the criteria to Like "*"&[Forms]![SearchForm]![LastName]&"*". This returns all records if the text box is left blank or returns those records that match the text box if it isn't.
I would like to do the same thing but instead of searching a text field, I want to search a number field. And I want to search for a range of values aka >10 instead of just a single value. I still need the query to return all records if the text box is left blank.

Hi, I have two questions which i dont think are two far apart, hence same thread.
First is, how do i make a search text box, that when i click a button searches for what is in that text box, rather than bringing up the find box. It is alright but it always compares it to what was last tabbed, or is the selected tab, and i want it always to compare to another textbox called company name.
secondly. I am often entering entries to the database with the same details. but a different name, how can i have it so that i enter say 4 or 5 names which starts 4 or 5 new records, but then places the rest of the details across all the new records.
THANKS

Hey all.
I have a database but want to create a Search function.
I want the search function to read a drop down box for a table name, then read two text box's for search criteria then search the table and displat results.
My knowledge of Microsoft Access is limited.
I think I have the theory behind it but not the know how for the coding.
So far I have been able to get it too look at the List Box for the table name then when I hit the search button ive set it to just open the table for now.
but cant get any further, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I have built a basic database to hold details on all my computer books and software as i hundereds of them.
I have built a table with text, number and memo fields which i want to be able to search.
What i would like is a form where you can enter details into various fields (eg Title, Author, a field to search all fields, etc) and then display the results in a table in the form below it. Then when the record is double-clicked it opens the record ina new form displaying more details.
Is there a way to do it as i have spent months trying to figure it out and trying to include the sample databases?
I have attached my database so any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Aden
