How do you make the spell checker not cycle through all your records when you run it? As it is right now, when a user tries to spell check their entry into the summary block of my form it automatically starts with the first record in the database and goes from there.
This is in Access2003 BTW.
Hi
I have sendkey "{f7}" on loss focus.
this works great as a spell check but then I get the mesage box that spell check is complete.
How do I stop this box from occuring?
We need to enter the string INCL as a data value in one of our tables. When we try to exit the field, Access keeps changing it to INCLUDE. This occurs whether the value is entered via a form or directly in the table. I assume it is doing some type of autocorrect based on th spelling. There is no VBA code associated with this field.
Is there some way to turn this off?
When I try to do a spell check in a Form by pressing F7 I receive this error:
Can't start the spelling checker because it isn't installed.
How do I get it installed?
Thanks!
I have 15 fields beginning with the word Comment. (i.e. comment, comment1, comment2 etc)
What Im trying to do is create a spellcheck command button that will only check these fields and only on the current record.
I've managed to find this piece of code to do the actual check:
With Me.FIELDNAME
.SetFocus
.SelStart = 0
.SelLength = Len(Me.FIELDNAME)
End With
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
Question is, how do I get this piece of code to loop through any field beginning with the word 'comment' and check their spelling?!
Any help would be much appreciated
I have a subform in datasheet view. I would like to put a button on the mainfor that checks all the subform records for spelling mistakes. Is this possible?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Access 2010 database running in runtime. What options do I have for spell check? I can bind to a 2010 Word spell check (if it is installed), but could I do a late bind to utilise any other office spell check? Tried to use a .net spell checker dll and get access to call out the text and get returned the errors? Not sure what options I have really...
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi everyone and many thanks in advance.
I have configured my Access 2007 DB/app to hide the default ribbons and Options settings so that end-users cannot change the config or perform tasks that would jeopardize the integrity of the data. One of the other requirements on this project is to allow the end-user to launch the Spell Check feature.
It was simple enough to launch Spell Check from a button on a form. The problem lies in that the Spell Check feature has an "Options" button that serves as a point of entry to the Access Options that I'm trying to prevent the user from seeing.
Can anyone tell me how to hide or disable the Options button in Spell Check? I fear that this is not possible and I will have to choose between Spell Check and ensuring data integrity.
Many thanks,
Dominick:confused:
When distributing a program using 2010 runtime, I find that the spell check doesn't work. Is there a spell-check .dll or is there anyway I can get a spell checker?I have several memo fields with long report-type data entry which is being keyed by mutants. Spell checking is essential to get an intelligible report.

Hi,
I have an arrival date and a departure date and I need to work out if the current date is within the two dates. It's a criteria for one of my fields on the query I'm using as the backbone for a list box. Any help greatly appreciated :D

Hi,
I would like to insert the currrent time in a feild on my form once a checkbox is ticked.
Can anyone please help me with this.

I need a way to dynamically store a particular value in "field_2" of the CURRENT record depending on whether or not the value of "field_1" of the CURRENT record is identical to the value of "field_1" of the PREVIOUS record within the same table. The table is sorted on "field_1".
So, if the value of "field_1" in the CURRENT record is "ABC" and the value of "field_1" in the PREVIOUS record is also "ABC", then store a value of "PPP" in "field_2" of the current record. IF on the other hand, the value of "field_1" in the CURRENT record is "ABC" and the value of "field_1" in the PREVIOUS record is "XYZ", then store a value of "WWW" in "field_2" of the current record.
I have a report that will use these results to count only the number of records that have a "WWW" in "field_2".
Is this doable, maybe in a query somehow?
I should add that whatever the solution, it needs to be compatible with Access 2000.
I have two forms both with separate tables
(1) Register and
(2) Payments.
One of the common denominators between them is the URN which is auto-populated as it is an auto number field. My issue is that when I want to add a new record to the payments table using the forms (I can get to the payments form via the register form), I want to be able to identify the record that I am currently viewing within the register and auto populate the URN field with the same number. This is what I have done so far,
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub AttachPaymentDetails()
Call PerformInsert("tblFinancialBudget", "frmFinancialBudget")
End Sub
[code]....
I'm trying to make a form that shows what the last record was next to the empty space where you enter a new record.
This is so the user knows that what they are entering is roughly in line with what has come before.
So for example if I was recording temperature every May, I would like a form that has a field called temperature and next to that field I would like to see last year's temperature.
Records:
Date | Temp
2014 | 20.5
2013 | 18.5
2012 | 19.0
2011 | 22.7
2010 | 15.2
So when I enter the record for 2015 I have a box that says: Temp and next to that box is "Last year was 20.5" or something like that.
I'm struggling with a query to evaluate current and prior record data. I have a query producing 5000 records. I need to group records by Case ID and compare current date record to previous date record to determine if a team and worker name has changed during the year. I need to count how many times a cases is transferred to and out of a particular team from the beggining of the year. i.e., On 1/1/2014-Team1 has an inventory of 500 cases.
During the month 25 cases are transferred into Team1 and 15 cases are transferred out of Team1. So on 2/1/2014 Team1 begins with an inventory of 510 cases. Throughout the year cases come and go from and to Team1 each month so need to figure out how to create a query to count each change. See attachment displaying how the data is listed and how I invision it to work with the In/out column counts.
Specifically, at the begginig of the year (1/1/14) for case ID 1003 you can see it belongs to Mary in Team1 for January and February. Then in March the case is transferred out and went to Joe in Team 3. So for Mary a "-1" is recorded as a negative count for that Case ID. If later in the year the case is transferred back to Mary a "+1" would be recorded. Respectively evaluated for each of the 5000 records to get a total count for each of the teams by Case ID throughout the year.
I've started with DLookup, tried comparing current month to previous month using DMax. It works as long as I only select one case ID used in a separate query but if I use the whole subset (5000 records) it fails. I can't figure out how to group each set of case IDs and then apply the query.
My attempted query: DLookUp("[Team]","[Team_qry]","[Team_qry]![Date]=#" & CStr(DMax("[Date]","[Team_qry]","[Team_qry]![Date] <#" & CStr([Date]) & "#")) & "#")
In my query, i want to automatically display the value of another field from the previous record in a field in my current record. i.e.
Name Value Previous
Record 1 1
Record 2 2 1
Record 3 7 2
Record 4 1 7
Is it possible to create some kind of simple expression to refer to data in another record?
Cheers,
Ben
I need to write a query which populates an empty field in the current record with information from a specific field in the next sequential record. Any ideas?:confused:
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a query to bring in values, I need to select 2 rows of data but the criteria is as such:

Hi firstly I want to say I am not a programmer or anything like that, I know enough about Access to get me by with simple things but after that i get a little stuck so please dont baffle me with loads of technical coding terms :D
Ok..I have a database with a form where the users enter a subject and description. I have a spell checker running on these 2 fields which works fine up to a certain point. If the users goes in, adds a new record, tabs off the field, the spell checker runs, etc then it works fine. If the user then creates a new record and it picks up a spelling mistake in the new record it jumps back to the previous record that was created and spell checks that again.
If you close the form and open it again before creating the second record it is fine. Could anyone possible shed any light on the situation? Below is the code that I am using (found it on the internet somewhere)
Private Sub Description_AfterUpdate()
'If the textbox contains data run the
'Spell Checker after data is entered.
If Len(Me!Description & "") > 0 Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Description_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
End Sub
Private Sub Subject_AfterUpdate()
'If the textbox contains data run the
'Spell Checker after data is entered.
If Len(Me!Subject & "") > 0 Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
I have an application that enters candidates in, who apply for a job.
I found that I can enter a candidate in, and if I dont enter at least an address type or phone type ( giving that candidate an address record, albiet a blank one (just a type of address) and a phone record) then the candidate wont have a sub record for addres or phone at all.
This is hurting my reports. They are set to pull the primary address and phone only, as we dont need to have 2-3 contact information for a candidate on a report This is how I found out that I had blank address and phone for some test records. I need to be able to check when a person does a number of things, that at least the combos for phone type and address type have been chosen as something. This will ensure that they have a primary address and phone, as I have code that takes care of all that. I tried putting the following code in the form's before update, but since it is calling to a subform, the minute I tab TO the address combo, I get the message. The form is updating before I get the chance to skip the field.
Here is the lay out. A user can enter in candidate, their address, phone, application and activities. Address, phone, applications and activities are all sub reports on a tab control. The user should be able to move freely within any record, and only be bothered when they try to leave, if important information is still empty. I dont want to control how they enter ('you must enter this first!' lol) just that they do enter it in the end.
What I want to do is check when the user is leaving a record.(closing form, going to another record, clicking the search button that opens another form etc) if either combo is empty (no primary contact info) then it gives the message and goes back to the combo that is empty.
Here is the code I have. If anyone can help me find the right place to put it, I would really appreciate it. Thank you,
If IsNull(Me.[subAddressEntry].Form![cmbAddressTypeID]) Then
msgbox "You must enter an Address"
Me.[subAddressEntry].Form![cmbAddressTypeID].SetFocus
Cancel = True
ElseIf IsNull(Me.[subPhoneEntry].Form![cmbPhoneTypeID]) Then
msgbox "You must enter a Phone"
Me.[subPhoneEntry].Form![cmbPhoneTypeID].SetFocus
Cancel = True
Else: Cancel = False
End If
If I can't figure this out, I am thinking of making a new address type and phone type. Call it "none chosen" and then make that a default selection. Then one would always be chosen...I think. I would like to avoid that though.
Thanks again.
Hi all,
Another problem bothering me. Wish someone can help me to solve it. I am doing the 'Edit' Option right now ... As a user friendly propuse, I had try to use a combo box to let user to choose my employee record with all the detail on but the problem is the program 'JUST' list the record they can not go to the current record!! When i try to edit my record, the program is not allow (for sure because they can't have a duplicate record on it). The reason is because the record just stay in the FIRST record but can not go to the current record. I do believe is the problem of i using the way of listing the record as below:
Me.EmployeeName = Me.EmployeeName.Column(0)
Me.IC = Me.EmployeeName.Column(1)
Me.Nationality = Me.EmployeeName.Column(2)
Me.Race = Me.EmployeeName.Column(3)
Me.Sex = Me.EmployeeName.Column(4)
Me.FMU = Me.EmployeeName.Column(5)
Me.Position = Me.EmployeeName.Column(6)
Me.SectionField = Me.EmployeeName.Column(7)
Me.DOEmploment = Me.EmployeeName.Column(8)
Me.DOResign = Me.EmployeeName.Column(9)
Me.Remarks = Me.EmployeeName.Column(10)
So, Could someone help me to solve it like when i can use the combo box to select the Employee record with the details are on as the same time can go to current record... Thanks alot!!!
i do have the confident if i can go to the current record then my edit option can be working properly.
P/S: I had attach the picture... showing my program problem (with the red circle)
I have a table called tblFinishedGoods. There are 3 fields in the table:Serial Number, Model Number and Location.
I would like to have a form that will take input from my barcode reader and input the data for the 3 fields, if the serial number is not already in the table.(I have this already working).
But now I would like the same form to also check the table for any serial number that is scanned in...and if it is in the table already, have it bring up the model number and location for that record.
I'm thinking maybe there is something I can do with Serial Number afterupdate. Basically I'm looking for a way to not require the user to input anything via a mouse or keyboard.
If the 1 form could accept the 3 scans:Serial Number,Model Number and Location, and either 1)enter a new record if that serial number isnt in the table or 2)find that the serial number already exists and overwrite the model number and location with whatever the next 2 scans are.
Thanks
I'm trying to get a spell check to work on a text box on a form. i've got it popping the spell check window after the box has been updated but i'd prefer it to just highlight the errors in red, rather than pop the spell check box. another problem i'm having is when it's finished spell checking the box it moves the form back to the first record. this is the code i'm using.
Code:
Private Sub txt_notes_AfterUpdate()
If Len(Me!txt_notes & "") > 0 Then
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
hello,
I have faxing setup through the XP wizard, I setup my report in Access to use the Fax as specific printer. So When I select a record, it generates the Fax wizard which then prompts for the senders name Fax # etc. and away it goes.
that is ok but It would be nice if I could use the Fax number from the record I am sending, either current record or all. I guess the main trick is how would I pass the fax number to the Fax Printer interface?
Is it possible? I've read a few articles on Microsoft Fax for workgroups to work with Outlook, Outlook help says to go to Office update and download it but I can't find it there? Also do the newer versions of Outlook/Access have a better means of doing this? I am running office 2000, but I can get 2002 installed if that is the case.
thanks
Ziggy
