Hi all, I have a query to recall all the events related to a certain employee by running a query and inserting the staff number, I then have a form showing the details of all employees; what I need is to add a button on the form that runs the mentioned query without having to insert the staff number again as the form is already showing that employee.
Thanks

I am new to access and all of this and trying to create a database to record livestock (budgerigars) I have put in the reletive informnation for 2 generations but would like to beable to click on a record in forms view and for the grandparents to be automatically inserted. Something like a family tree.
Also I would like to be able to double click on a entry which shows as a parent in a form view, and for the database to go directly to that entry and bring it up onto the form.
I hope someone can help and that I'm making so sense
(anyone know a good book that would help me understand all of this)
Thanks

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
Does anyone know how I can set up the following?
I have a form with a list box in it which is populated by the data from a query.
What I would like is that when a user clicks on one line of data so that the line goes black and the text goes white, I would like the code that when double clicked, will take you to a form with the record displaying the same data as the one that was in the list box.
E.g. The list box would be a work queue of outstanding post items to action and when a record is double clicked on, it takes you to another form but shows all of the data for that record as opposed to just the data in the list box query result.
Many thanks
When double click the entries given in the attached database I cannot open the correct form. it gives parameter value.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have 3 peices of data that I am working with: Group number, plans and benefit elections. On my form I have fields for the group number and plan and 2 queries. When I enter a group number the first query displays a list of plan descriptions for that group. From there I can enter the plan description into the form's plan field and that runs the second query to give me a list of valid elections for that plan. This all works fine but I want to make the plan selection a little less tedious. What I would like is to be able to double click the query field housing the plan description and have it copied to the form's plan field. I could use the ID instead of the plan description but I work in a production environment and very key stroke counts so I would really like to have a simple double click process.
Is this even possible? If so how would I set that up? I tried using the double click on event macro builder but it does not seem to have this kind of option.
My form contains fields for group number and Plan. The same form houses 2 querys, one that pulls plans based on the group number and the other to pull elections based on the plan field (not the plan query). Would like to double click a plan within the plan query and have that description populated into the form's plan field.
A while ago I started to use the following code to list the printers installed on a computer. This is code by Wayne Phillips.
This works well, but what if instead of simply getting a big message box with all the printers listed I wanted to be able to click on a name and set that printer? How do I do that?
Code for the button:
Private Sub cmdListPrinters_Click()
Dim strCount As String
Dim strMsg As String
Dim prtLoop As Printer
On Error GoTo ShowPrinters_Err
[Code] ....
Could someone tell me if I need to break this select statement down? I'm running into problems with the DMax statement since it requires double quotes around it's arguments. When the parser hits the first argument, it closes the string like it's supposed to, but not the way I want it to.
In essence, the query returns 4 fields: unique ID, week number, computed score (TotSum), and the computed handicap (which is half the difference between your score and the high scorer):
Quote: strSQL = "SELECT tblRoster.HEDR, tblScores.WeekNo, " & _
"[A1T1]+[A1T2]+[A1T3]+[A2T1]+[A2T2]+[A2T3]+[A3T1]+[A3T2]+[A3T3] AS TotSum, " & _
"Round(((DMax("[TotSum]", "[qryHandicap]") - [TotSum]) / 2) + 0.1) AS Handicap " & _
"FROM tblRoster LEFT JOIN tblScores ON tblRoster.HEDR = tblScores.HEDR " & _
"WHERE (((tblScores.WeekNo) = " & inpWeekNum & ") And (TotSum > 0)) " & _
"ORDER BY TotSum DESC;"
What would the proper syntax be and/or is there a better way to obtain this information. After acquired, it is being salted away in a table which is recomputed after each competition.
Thanks for the input.
-Brian.
p.s. I know storing computed fields is a big no-no, but if you do not compete in a given week, the handicap from the last time you participated is used. This table will store the participants handicap as well as the last competition they were in. It seemed easier this way.
I've got a continuous form, with a button (cmd1) on each record. Each record has a unique primary key, RecordID. cmd1 is clicked to open a form (frm1) based on the RecordID using the following code:
Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "frm1", , , "RecordID = " & Me.RecordID
I want frm1 to open, ONLY when a user clicks on cmd1 while it's already in focus ON that specific record.
Is there a way to sort data in a form by clicking on a corresponding control (e.g. label/txtbox) in the FormHeader?

I have a Mainform [FrmReconcileMain] and it contains a Subform [FrmReconcilesub]
What I'm trying to is, on the Main form type in a statement date in textbox [TxtStatementDate].
I have a checkbox on my subform [ReconciledYN], along with a textbox [TxtReconcileDateSub]. when I click the checkbox, it simply pulls the date from the mainform and populates the date in the subform.
I've even tried experimenting on a simple form (with no subform) to see whats going on, but still I can't get it to work, even on a simple event such as this...
If [yourcheckboxname] = -1 Then [controlnametoupdate] = date() Else [controlnametoupdate] = ""

i would like in a form for a combo box to be able to select an item from a table and input relating information automatically into other boxes in the form..
I have 3 tables: Table 1 has product code and product description.
Table 2 has invoice number company details, address etc.
Table 3 has product code and product description qty and invoice number..
Table 3 relates to table 2 by the invoice number and table 3 product code looks up the product codes available in table 1 and also table 3 looks up the list of products descriptions in table 1 using the combo wizard.
This means the wrong code can be put with wrong description.
What i would like to know is how i select a product description and the product code in the form fills out automatically?? i hope this makes sense please helppppp!!

Hi all! Hope you can help me yet again!
My company recently completed a fairly large website for a local travel-agency. The website runs on a MsSQL and .net platform, but (It is a big but(t) by the way) a pricing calculation database is a old MS Access 2000 application.
The users of this DB have MSA2000 installed on their computers, and the database is made with one application DB and connected tables.
My problem is that I have to make some small changes to this DB, but when I start it up, the toolbars is hidden and right-clicking is disabled. (F11 works).
Is there a workaround this problem?

Hi there,
I have a form that has several tabs and in one of the tabs, the subform is very long. When I click from tab to tab, the main form scrolls down and the list of tabs disappears. So, when I am done with entering the subform, I have to scroll up the page to see the tabs in order to click on the next tab. I am hoping if someone has an idea how to stop the main form from scroll down each time I click on a tab.
