Simple Question; Subforms? Pages?
Oct 11, 2005
Hey ladies and gents,
Just so you know, I am new at this. You probably guessed.
I am trying to learn how to make a specific type of form here and I feel like I am wading through an ocean of instuction books and help files, I was just hoping someone could point me in the right direction.
Just for a stupid example, lets say the form has three combo buttons when you open it; state, county, and city. If I want to make it so that when I select a specific state it changes the options available in the county box, and again when I select that box, what concept is this? I've heard of subforms and forms with multiple pages and I just want to know what I should be researching to find out how to do this.
Thanks for the help.

I have created a form which has a main section (Client demographics (bound to tblClient) and then five tabbed pages with subforms.(Data associated with the Client- all forms derived from tblAssociatedDetails). The subforms on the tabbed pages are all linked via a ClientID number.
In the form header I have put a a combo box and with the wizard said that I want it to select data from my form (in the case search via Surname). This works but only for the top part of the form (ie it will load the demographics) but will not load any of the data from the tabbed pages (subforms).
Any idea where the missing link could be?

:confused: Hi everybody. I have started trying to be a little more creative and making my systems a little more what the big boss where I work would like to see. I have set up an Access Data Page, with one form on it where the user would enter some required information, which is saved into a table for me to monitor (date, time, unit, spec reviewed, name etc). What I was hoping to do, was have on teh same Page, a subform or another form, where the user would reference that other form, when doing their entry. Basically, they are entering that they looked at a certain spec so if they produce the wrong item, or use the wrong materials, we can say well, you looked at this spec, or so you say.....Does anybody have any suggestions on how this can work? Or even if it is at all a possibility. Thanks!

Hi im trying to see if there is a way to put a timer in tab pages. so that when the time expires it changes to another tab. I have it working fine with the command button. I have like 20 tabs all hidden until the user clicks the cmd. Now is there a way to put a timer? I know that i can do it with the Form_timer, but that dont seem to work with tabs.
thanx

I am using the "Tab Pages" on a form. On one of the pages I have a subform. If I'm doing a routine in VBA regarding that subform, do I need to reference the Tab Pages object as well as the form and the subform?

Hello,
I have a form with a lot of controls. To make it much more clear for users, I was thinking of adding tab controls or page breakes.
I have placed a tab control with two pages on my form and tried to move the existing controls on the required page but of course the control will show on all the pages.
Is there a way to bypass this without having to create a new form and placing controls one at the time?
Thanks

Hello visitors,
I have a report base on a select query but in the report i get the following:
page 1 = record 1
page 2, page 3, page 4 = are empty (nothing to see on the pages)
page 5 = record 2
page 6, page 7, page 8 = are empty (nothing to see on the pages)
page 9 = record 3
...........etc...
So there are three empty pages between every two pages(records).
I have checked in the settings of the report and all properties but cannot find the solution.
Can any one help me to solve this ?
Thanks in advance

I'm setting up data access pages that will be accessed over the internet. Because of this I want to make sure that everything is secure. I am using IIS 5.0 (Windows XP) as the web server. I used the three-tier authentication approach discussed in the microsoft article here (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnacc2k2/html/deploydap.asp) So I'm pretty sure that the authentication is secure. But what about the communication between the browser and MSDE during databinding? Is that secure?
Wanting to make sure I set up a SSL certificate which secures the page and set the Remote Server in the connection settings in the data access pages to "https://domain.com". Does this secure the comminication between browser and the server?
Thanks in advance

If I build an access database that uses data access pages, are all users required to have a copy of the MS Access software, or does the database run strictly off of the browser?

This is the first time ive used the switchboard so hopefully this will be just a quicky!
Bascially i have a main switchboard which has 3 buttons. These buttons all link to different switchboard pages.
THE PROBLEM :- I have labels on the main switchboard and these are all appearing on the consequent switchboard pages. Is there a way of assigning these just to the main switchboard and not the other pages?
Thanks, any advice would be most appreciated!

I have a number of tabbed pages and I was wondering if you could increase the size of the tab to make it (Vertically) larger so you could write the headings over two lines.
Also what does "Multi row" mean in the tabbed row pages?

I have generated a data access page from a table. I want this page to be used on the Internet where users can enter their data and the info is automatically sent to the access database.
But when I accessed the page in the browser, I can not edit the fields and do any inputs. Have I missed something?
tks

Hi,
When I create the Data Access Pages, I put the table values fields on the page, but it does not allow the user to edit the data. If I just create Textbox there, we can type it. So, Does the Data Access pages only view data? It doesn't allow the user to edit data. And also, I create a few button over there, and I want to create a few different function of each button, such as Update, Add, Delete. But, The properties of the buttons do not have the click event. Actually, I know that the forms can do it.
Actually, what is advantage of using Data Access Pages? I feel that Data Access Pages can give me a lot of help. It has many limits. It just created by HTML format, and save it external (I mean that it will not save inside the db file, but it just link the file to db file)
I thought it is just simple webpage, only view data, and search data. That's it. It doesn't allow us to edit data on Data Access Pages, create button.

hi...
im trying to create like a test in access. this is the idea. the user open the first form to enter the info like student number, name and so on. when he clicks the button he goes to another form where is the first question. in the top part is the student number wich was obtained from the First form and an option group with the answers to the question of the label box. Also a timer was included so the form close after one minute using the form_timer event. everything seem to work fine but when i go to the table to see the answers of the student, it look like if the student took the test for the number of questions, in this case forms, so if there is 20 questions(forms) it appears 20 times under the same student number, cuz all the questions are in diferent forms. then i try to take out this line from the first form when the user click the button:
DOCMD.GOTORECORD,, aclast
when i take that line out it seem to work fine only that when the user click the cmd button it goes to the first record instead of the active student record.
So then i thought of tab pages making them not visible until the user click the cmd button. it work fine with the cmd button but how do i put a timer to all the tab pages so that when time expires the next tab appear??
is that a bit hard??/
any help would be appreciated, thanx

I have a report where the detail section, holding 4 subreports, takes up 5 inches in the middle of the page between the header and footer. We want the entire 5 x 8 area enclosed in a box on every page. I have tried to achieve this by putting a line in the Detail_Format section:
Code:
boxDetail.Height = 5 * 1440 * Pages
However, when I run the report, I get pages 1/3 correctly, then 2/3 and 3/3 with no detail section or box, and then pages 4/3, 5/3, and 6/3 with blank detail sections and no box. If it's a 1-page report, the same - page 1/1 is perfect and page 2/1 is blank, no data and no box. I also sometimes (but not always) get overflow errors from the Detail_Format event.
I know it's not a margin error because that would be every other page, and the page count wouldn't be doing that. (Still, I have scrupulously checked every margin, and they all look fine.) Getting this look on the report is a priority. Any way to achieve the same result with the box without causing the missing data and extra pages?

Hello all
I have fell into Data Access Pages (yes, it hurt :p ), and have absolutely no knowledge of HTML or Javascript (though fairly competent with vb), so please bear with me!
When you are using normal forms in Access, you can launch a separate form from a command button, and bring up a record based on a value in a combo box - for example, Form A has a combobox1, and when cmdbutton1 is pressed it launches Form B and displays the appropriate record, using the criteria of combobox1.
My question is, is there a way to duplicate this functionality when using DAP?
Cheers for any insight..................

I have a table with three fields:
AutoID : AutoNumber
Name: Text
RecordID: Number "Long Integer"
I have created a form that aytomatically starts a new record and I have also
placed the following Code in the form's module:
Private Sub Form_Current()
' Comments: If this is the first entry then set the RequestID to 1,
' else find the maximum RequestID and add 1 to it.
If Not IsNull(DMax("[RequestID]", "tblMain")) Then
Me.RequestID = DMax("[RequestID]", "tblMain") + 1
Else
Me.RequestID = 1
End If
End Sub
I have saved the form as a Data Access page but the code doesn't work and
I couldn't find a code simialr to that which I can use in my html page?!
Maybe I can use ADO to open a recordset ans search for the maximum value
but I don't know the exact code and how to write the result back to the
recordID field in the html page?
Thank you.
