Some Sort Of Button?
Apr 8, 2005
Hi all,
I have a very simple form that details loan machines for customers.
What I need is a very obvious sign on each record to see if the machine is in our stock or not.
A normal check box is an ovious answer but they are too small and my users complain (bigger glasses were an option :) ).
Ideally a toggle button or something that the user can click and it will change colour maybe between Green and Red (Please see attached screen shot) Green for in stock and red for out on loan. Any ideas or suggestions would be fantastic.

Hello there!
This is my very first post on this forum. I started to work with Acces and SQL only two weeks ago, so my questions probably are newbie-stuff, but please bare with me and please help me anyway :-)
In my form I've inserted a list that shows data from one of my tables. The posts are ordered by 'ID' (and I know how to change this). But I want to make a button just right of it, that, when it's clicked, sorts the list by 'first name' instead.
How do I make such one???

Hi,
I need help with listbox problem:
I made a listbox contains peoples name from A to Z.
I want to sort it via A to Z button press.
It's similar with customer phone list form in Northwind.mdb sample,
due to my limited knowledge, I can't replicate it using listbox.
Any sample to do this?
Thankyou.
Gunawan.

I created a button for a form using a built-in macro function for sorting records,
and I am returned with the following error:
THE COMMAND OR ACTION 'SortAScending' ISN'T AVAILABLE NOW.
Is there any work-a-round code to fix?

I'm displaying records in a subform that is in the datasheet format.I would like a sort button on my main form so that I can click a column header, press this button and it can sort the datasheet ascending.

Ive created a form and one of the fields is a field called "Due Date"
I want to create a button that once pressed will sort the records in order of due date with the oldest being record 1.
How I can get a button to manipulate fields.
Ive got a set of buttons at the bottom of my form (Ive placed them in the footer) that were set up using Access automatically. They go to first, last, next and previous records. Ive also set up two extra, one that creates a new record and another that sets the record.
The thing is that the set record button I would actually like it to take the data in a field called "Frequency", add a random number to it and then set the record.

Hi all,
I have a form in Access 2K that properly displays city, state and zip codes. As I type in each letter of a city's name into the combo box, I get the first city in the sorted list displayed (autofills). That's fine when there is only one zip code for a city, but when I enter "chic" for chicago I still get the first chicago zip code in my table.
It sure would be nice if I could do a "sort within a sort" so that if there were two or more records with the same city name then that whole group would drop down so I could choose one of the other zip codes. If this is doable, kindly point me to an example as I need all the help I can get.
Thanks in advance for any responses.

I have a query that sorts players batting averages from highest to lowest. When I run the query just by itself it sorts it right however when I open the report based on that query it does not sort in descending order like I asked. What am I missing??

I have created a web-database (? - There are globes over all the forms and tables icons) based on the Issues & Tasks template. This means that most of the data is entered and seen on the "Main" form, which has two tabs - Open Issues and Closed Issues. I have created a form that allows people at my work to input the necessary data and save it, so that it will show up on one of the two tabs. However, once a record has been created, I want to be initially locked if the ID/PK is clicked, so that data can't be changed or entered inadvertently.
SO, I changed the code so that when the ID/PK for a record is clicked, it brings up a different form, but one that looks exactly like the one that is brought up when entering a new form, but I locked all of the fields so that the information cannot be changed. It seems from what I have read that I can create a button on this form so that when clicked, it unlocks the fields on the form so that they can be changed, and then when clicked again it will lock the fields again. Is this true? If so, how can I do it? Or is there something similar I can do? I have seen codes that I could copy and paste, but I cannot figure out the place to copy and paste codes in Access 2010.
I have changed the Form properties so that Data Entry and all the "Allows" are set to No...

Hi, I have got a small problem and maybe someone could advise me.
I am creating a customised command button from a label button. The new button works fine but I can't apply the 'requery' function to it, if i do an error occures and i am being prompt to save the data first???? :confused: :
Private Sub Labelsearch_Click()
Me!itemquery.Requery
End Sub
Private Sub Labelsearch_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Me.Labelsearch.SpecialEffect = 2
Me.Labelsearch.BackColor = 255
Me.Labelsearch.ForeColor = 10092543
Me.Labelsearch.FontItalic = True
Me.Labelsearch.FontBold = True
End Sub
Private Sub Labelsearch_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Me.Labelsearch.ForeColor = 255
Me.Labelsearch.FontItalic = False
Me.Labelsearch.FontBold = True
End Sub
Private Sub Labelsearch_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
'Come back to initial state when button release'
Me.Labelsearch.SpecialEffect = 1
Me.Labelsearch.BackColor = 16373685
Me.Labelsearch.ForeColor = 8388608
Me.Labelsearch.FontItalic = False
Me.Labelsearch.FontBold = True
End
If I create a command button with the wizard and assign the code :
me!itemquery.Requeryto the on_click event my form is working fine.
Why is his code is not working if I assign it to a label? :o

I was just wondering if it was possible to run a query by a specific value first, then the remainder of the following values in ascending order.
For example, the data would appear in the table as
Smith
Bloggs
Jones
Taylor
What I would like to do is have all the Taylors at the top, followed by Bloggs,Jones then Taylor
I have looked at the OrderBy function, but believe that you can only sort Ascending and Descending
Checked search, cant find anything
Many Thanks
Andy

Hi,
I try to do something but I don't know how.
I have 1 table with 3 rows (title, year, genre) and 1 Form.
Is it possible to create combobox or something with 3 criterium, when I selected
criterium to re-sort columns in Forms (by title, by year, by genre)?
thank you

Continuous form:
The standard menu / toolbar commands sort ASC and DEC work just fine.
However, if I define a button with the VBCode
"DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSortAscending", I get an alarm message pop-up
saying "the command or action "SortAscending" isn't available now".
I made sure that the standard menu items "Sort asc / dec" are not grayed out(disabled) at the time I click the button in runtime. The mouse cursor points to the desired sort criteria field.
Any advice?
Regards from Belgium (pretty cold here)

I am completely stumped on this one. I have a database where we track IP Addresses and I just want to sort by IP...should be simple, I'd think.
With these 5 IP's, I'd want them in this order:
1.2.3.1
1.2.3.4
1.2.3.7
1.2.3.9
1.2.3.10
1.2.3.17
1.2.3.21
But it sorts in this order:
1.2.3.1
1.2.3.10
1.2.3.17
1.2.3.21
1.2.3.4
1.2.3.7
1.2.3.9
Is there anything I can do to fix this? I want it to see each number as a whole, for example "10" instead of "1" and "0"
Much thanks.

Hello all
Been looking at this forum for a few weeks and think it's great!!
Now for my first post :rolleyes:
We have a DB at work (attached) and it was put together by a consultant would you believe. Anyway I have been given the task to fix this. It now work i.e. it records what I want. The only problem is that it's written with more macros than i've ever seen.
I want some advice on the DB to make it function better. It is used to record how long a member of staff spend on a piece of work, apologies for the interface.
1. The user must first input a date , start date and end date into a table. Now the start date will always be a Monday and the end date a Sunday. Is there anyway to automate that process? i.e if a user goes in on a Monday the prevous weeks date is there but if the user went in before it would not , get the idea.
Anyway, please rip it to shreads and give me some advice
Thanks

Hi all.
I imported a text file into a new table.
I sorted the table on one field, then exported table to another text file.
But, the sort did not export. The new text file has the same sort as the original.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

Hey all, I looked throught a couple of threads for sorting, but could not find exactly what I need.
Basically, I have a list of dates:
10-Aug-07
20-Oct-07
13-Nov-07
etc...
and when I try and sort these dates from earliest to latest, it only reads the number and not the month, like:
10-Aug-07
13-Nov-07
20-Oct-07
etc...
How would I make it sort by date and month?
Thanks,
RR

Hello, I have the following query which gives me a count by day.
However, it sorts by day instead of day/month.
For example:
01/01/05
01/02/05
01/03/05
02/01/05
02/02/05 and so on...
Can I sort so it will show me all of January, then all of Febuary etc?
Thanks.
J.
