Forms :: How To Limit A Field Content Based On The Content Of Another Field

Nov 25, 2013

As I began thinking about the data that I need to include in one of my reports I relized that I need to gather some extra data.Each design change has a lifecycle with 7 basic states from not started through to closed. States 4, 5, and 6 have two posible sub-states that I need to capture and report. It is almost like having options.

My data entry form already records the 7 basic states. What I would like to do is have another field that records the sub-states if the design change is in one of those three states.

Will a ComboBox do this?

Do I need a test routine for the After Update event in the first text box? Something that will check for states 1 - 3 and 7 move on to the next field and if states 4 -6 require users to enter the sub-state.

Would a nested if-then-else routine do the job?

Forms :: Coloring Form Field Based On Another Field Content

Jun 4, 2013

I am making a very simple 'registration' database for a children's event in a couple of weeks.I the table/form there is a checkbox field called 'consent' which, if checked, indicates that a child can leave the event without parental consent.

There is a report printed on each child (a registration page which the leaders get a copy of). I would like on this report a 'red box' to appear if the child cannot leave without permission (i.e. the consent box is not checked). I would also like this 'red box' to appear on the form. I had thought of doing it this way - but I'm not sure if it's the best, or if it's possible:

Have a field in my table called 'consentindicator'. When the 'consent' box is checked, there is a period ('.') placed into the 'consentindicator' field. It is set to turn red when a period is present. That way, when the consent box is checked, a get a red 'box'.

Create Field Content Based On The Content Of Others?

Apr 16, 2007

Can I create contents of one field based on the contents of others?

I have a database of pc systems which we've tested and was wanting to generate a single text line to identify the individual pc

The single filed would contain data from the following fields
Job Number
CPU Type
CPU Speed
RAM
HDD size

eg
So the new field would contain "Job345-P3-1000-256-20"

Can this be done?

First Record In Table To Appear In Unbound Text Field On Form?

Feb 20, 2006

Hi All,

I hope someone can help me.

I have a table here tblTemp with a field client. This table can have from 1 to 100 records at times as it keeps getting cleared for the purpose of this exercise.

I also have a form frmLabel1Data with an unbound text box txtclient.

I was hoping to get the first record of the table into this text box upon opening the form.

I tried creating a query which gave me the following sql;

SELECT First(tblTemp.client) AS FirstOfclient FROM tblTemp;


I also tried placing it in this code with no luck

Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)

Dim SQL

SQL = "SELECT First(tblTemp.client) AS FirstOfclient FROM tblTemp;"
MsgBox SQL

End Sub

Does anyone know why I cannot see the same result as when I open the query it gives me my client name but the code above does not????

Any help is appreciated.

Dec 4, 2013

How to do an UPDATE using VBA on a form to update a specific record on the table using an unbound field on the form to filter the update.

Every time the code runs, it tells me: Run-time error '3144': Syntax error in UPDATE statement and takes me to the "CurrentDb.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError" line at the end of my sample below.

Here's my code:

strSQL = strSQL & " ('" & unbEnteredBy & "','" & cmbAssignedTo & "','" & cmbRequestor & "','" & cmbDepartment & "')"
strSQL = strSQL & "Where [tblTicket]![DateTimeOpened] = #" & FORMS!frmTicketTracker.unbDateTimeOpened & "#;"

How To Make Unbound Field Auto-populate Conditionally From Another Unbound Field

Jan 30, 2015

To make it simple, I have a list of contact names and their email. I want to have a form with no control source and have 2 simple drop down boxes for their Name and their Email. What I would like to happen is the user choose a name from the drop down in field 1 and then the field below auto-populate their email in field 2. I understand I can use conditional IF/THEN and list out each email, but the contact list is ever changing, so I want to first drop down to link to the TblContacts, have the user pick the name from the list and then have the 2nd field autopopulate from that same TblContacts with their email respective to the Name entered in field 1. My form has two field [Traveler] and [Email]...The tblContacts two fields are [Name] and [Email]

Code:
DLookup("[Email]", "tblContact", "[Name] = [frmEmail]![Traveler]")

Forms :: Making Data In A Field On A Form Appear If Content Is Not Null

Dec 31, 2014

I have a subform with continuous records. One of the fields in the recordset of the subform is a field named "Remarks". This field does not need to be visible on the continuous subform as it is rare that this field will have any entries.

I plan to apply conditional formatting on another field (IDcardNo) in the record line of the continuous subform so that when field "Remarks" contains any data it will show as a different format on the field IDcardNo.

I would like to make a small form appear when one points to the IDcardNo field with the different format, so that the data in the field "Remarks" pops up when one points to the field IDcardNo with altered format, showing that there is data in the field "Remarks".

General :: Dynamic Unbound Form Content Based On Database Entries

Jul 26, 2012

What I am wanting is to be able to build dynamic form content/elements based on entries on a table. This is for a gym membership system. What this form is going to be used for is to allow the front desk to scan a membership card which then performs a search on the database. Part of this search is going to be on a table that contains various add-on classes, tanning sessions, etc that a member can add beyond their base membership.

On the left side of the form, I will display a picture of the member and their name. What I am wanting to do on the right side of the form is to build a dynamic list of the add-on perks they are enrolled in.

I know I could hard program elements on the form to be visible or invisible, but that would be static and leave gaps when I have to turn things off b/c that member isn't enrolled in that class, etc.

Is this even possible with Access and VBA? I know I could do this sort of thing with a webpage using PHP, PERL or whatever. I don't know the limits of Access Forms and VBA.

Form To Send Values To Memo Field

Oct 3, 2005

I'm trying to develop a form that opens when you select a tab from another form. The first form would contain Standard Instructions (from a table) and the second form would have a Memo Field for special instructions. The user wants to be able to click a check box for each standard special instruction and when they close the first form all the check standard instructions to update the special instructions memo field on the second form. I'm thinking I have to set up a loop to go thru all records when the first form is closed. Any ideas on how this would work best?

I set it's default value at [cmbPartyType].[Column](2) .

It works for the first record. but when I scroll through the records, the box keeps the value that was appropriate for the first record. how can I get it to look at that combo box on every form? Even if I am not update records, just looking at them?

Forms :: Updating A Table Field Using Unbound Text Boxes

Mar 26, 2013

I have a form that contains a combo box (cboEmployeeName) that pulls data from a query and populates three text boxes (Work Area, Last Name, First Name), This part works fine. Because the text boxes are being populated by the Combo box, they are not bound to the record source tblTrainingSchedule). I need the info that is in the text boxes to populate the respective fields in the record source.

I tested by adding "=tblTrainingSchedule!WorkArea=[cboEmployeeName].Column(3)" (column 3 is the work area) to the "after update" control but it does not populate the data.

I have set up a Parameter query which works, and use this on a form.

What I am having a problem with is using an unbound field on the form to be the parameter.

For example in the Empty feild/box on the form I would type SMITH, and this on a click of a button next to it would run the parameter query as a subform.

Collate Field Content From Multiple Records

Jul 15, 2007

I have a database with company records in one table and calls made to companies in another table; the two tables properly related on a CompanyID field. A query joining the tables returns a dataset with multiple instances of CompanyID's because each company may have received 0 - n calls.

I would like to collate the content of the 0 - n[/I] callnotes records for each company into a single 'CollectedNotes' entity. I have two questions please.

Can anyone think of a way to do this without using code?

If not, can anyone give me a helping hand with the code?

In pseudo-code terms, I anticipate something like accessing the recordset for CompanyID's related to CallID's looping through to write the content of each instance of a CallNote (identified by unique CallID) to a new 'CollectedNotes' object. Help gratefully received. Thanks. MITW

Deleting Records Based On A Field Content?

Nov 16, 2004

Hi all!

I'm rapidly beginning to get a little confused... I'm trying to mass-delete records based on the content of a field.

I want to run either a query or a button on a form (or anything, for that matter) that will delete any records when there is an X in the N_Disp field.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Barry

Counting Records With Specific Field Content

Nov 23, 2005

hi there

I'm building a forum from the scrath. It is already working, but I want to have in each topic the number of replies it has.
there are 2 tables, one for the topics and other to the replies. in the replies table there is a field called id_post that has the id of the post witch it belongs.

I solve the problem by inserting a query inside the loop of the posts:

<%
While Not rs.EOF
%>
<%
Set rs2 = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) as cont FROM replies where id_post= " & rs("id") & " "
rs2.Open sql,Conn,1,2
%>

post: <%=rs("post")%> replies:<%=rs2("cont")%>

<%
rs.MoveNext
wend
rs.close%>

but someone told that this would make the page slower, so I want to know if I can do the same thing without having the query inside the loop.

I don't know if I made myself clear, sorry for that.

tks for the help.

Forms :: Event To Check Field Content?

May 11, 2014

I have a form with a number of fields and sections which change visibility based on the data entered in other fields,

The fields have an "on update" event to check the content of the field and make the appropriate changes,

I've changed this form to be able to edit records instead of "Data Entry" so now I need the checks to occur when the record changes as well as when data is entered,

How best can I achieve this without simply duplicating the code (which seems like a bad idea) into the "On Current" event?

Forms :: Copying Content Of Previous Field

Jan 26, 2014

I would like the text from the previous field Invoice_Contact copied into the field Invoice_Contact of each new record created. I think I can use CTRL ' - but would like it done automatically if possible.

Field location:
Form = PatientUpdate - Subform = F_Invoice - Field = Invoice_Contact

The form and subform are linked through: Pat_ID

The subform is based on the table called Invoice with Invoice_ID as the primary key.I tried several variations of this DLookup from examples I found on the web but the field comes out with "error" in it and its flashing!

How To Show Field Content In A Label - ID Of Dataset

May 24, 2012

I want to display the ID of a dataset in a form but I don't want the user to be able to edit it. Therefore I want to display the id in a label and not a textbox or combo etc.

I can't see a way of how to do this though. Is this possible, or am I going about it the wrong way?
