String Concatenation Into A Textbox
Dec 13, 2005
This really is more of a VB than an Access question, but I need it answered, and I don't know a good VB forum so....
I have a text box that I'm trying to add text to, I have a loop, and every time through the loop it's supposed to concatenate new text into the text box by appending it to the end. I can't seem to be able to find a way to do this. I can't use the <&> operator, and VB doesn't have a <+=> operator (I wish I could do this in C/C++, but oh well). Any ideas? Or do I have to set the existing text to a string, concatenate the new text onto that, and then set it to the textbox?

In the table, i already had a few columns:
string1 string2 string3
001 1 1.5
001 2 6.4
I'd like to add a new column and concatenate the strings in previous columns with additional characters:
string1 string2 string3 string4
001 1 1.5 c-001-b01_1_5x
001 2 6.4 c-001-b02_6_4x
002 3 7 c-002-b03_7x
Is there a good way to do this? Thanks in advance.

I have a textbox on a subform and I want to get the sum in a string as follows.
Code:
Dim s1 As String
s1 = Sum(Forms!CountItem!CountItemLastCount.Form!ThisCount)
MsgBox s1
When I use the above I get an error message saying - Sub or function not defined and it highlights the sum part of the equation.
I have been using the sum criteria in a textbox but if the user doesn't tab of the box then it doesn't see it as being updated.
I have tried me.dirty and everything else that usually works like send keys tab event, requery form and controls, a left mouse click but nothing is working, therefore I thought that code to actually update the textbox may work.

So, I have a main form with two continuous subforms like this:
frmContratos: main form
frmContInsumos: contains new products
frmInsumos: contains existing products
I want the user to highlight a word using a double click in a textbox called DescInsumo from frmContInsumos. And I want that highlighted portion to be used as filter for frmInsumos, which also has a textbox called DescInsumo. I used this and it's giving me the word, but it doesn't work with the double click event:
Code:
Private Sub DescInsumo_Click()
Debug.Print Me.DescInsumo.SelText
End Sub

I have a two-column list box where the user selects multiple Test Names and Test Measures. Through VBA, I loop through and create a string of the selected items and store into two seperate variables, one for each column. I concatenate with the "In" and some parenthesis to end up with the following:
In(ELA,MEAP,Star Math)
In(DRA, Math, PercentileRank)
I place each of the In statements into two seperate dummy text boxes on the form. Then I point the query criteria to these text boxes.
When I run the query, I get nothing. However, if I copy and paste the In statements above from the text boxes directly into the query criteria, I get the desired results.
I changed the code to create an "Or" statement (e.g. "ELA" OR "MEAP" OR "Star Math"), but still the same issue.
why the query will not read from the text boxes on the Form?

I have an Access 2010 database where we have a SQL Linked Table with a column that is nVARCHAR(20) Not Null data type. We have created a form for data entry. Currently when the user tries to erase a value or choose not to define a value we get the following error.
"You tried to assign the Null value to a variable that is not a Variant data type."
This field should accept a blank value "" as the user may not want to set the value. We do not have control over the DB schema, so how can I work around this issue in access?

I have an unbound form (named frmReportSearch) with unbound text & combo boxes providing the criteria for a query (named qSeqStreets). The form / query utilize 4 optional fields as search criteria plus date from / to. The results are returned via a report (named rptSeqStreets). The whole operation worked perfectly, however I realized I needed to change one of the criterion to a multivalued field. The change in the table (named Tasks) worked perfectly. I used three checkboxes (named chkA, chkB and chkC) to allow the user to select any combination of the 3 choices, including none (to be treated as no filter on [fldShifts]).
The three options in the field (named fldShifts) are "A" "B" and "C". I am able to manually run the query from design view by typing in the criteria "A" Or "B"... "A" Or "B" Or "C"... and any combination of the three options in the criteria box and running the query. I am using the following code under the OK button's OnClick. The Code below has other items related to all the options .... I didn't want to give partial code so you may understand better:
Code:
Private Sub btnOK_Click()
Dim strShift As String
Dim strA As String
Dim strB As String
Dim strC As String
[Code] .....
My problem is that the query criteria needs to be entered into the criteria box with quotes and separated by "Or" depending on if multiple checkboxes are selected.
I can get the results to show correctly in the textbox, however I imagine the query is adding an extra set of ""s to the string so rather than "A" Or "B" .. it is getting ""A" Or "B"". My query Sql and even design mode are pretty complex, so I wouldn't know how to use the sql in VBA without blowing some fuses.

Hi,
Just wondered if someone could help me with this prob?
The following text appears in a text box on a report
=[HirerCurrHouseNo] & " " & [HirerCurrAddress1] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [HirerCurrAddress2] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [HirerCurrTown] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [HirerCurrPostcode]
My prob is that if say "Address line2" is blank, I get horrible blank line in address (which looks rubbish when pirnting a letter!). What I would really like to do is move the lines up so they show as a proper address..
eg
Mr Joe Bloggs
29 The Street
Anytown
HD11AG
Not
Mr Joe Bloggs
29 The Street
Anytown
HD11AG
Thanks - And Merry Xmas!

I have a table that I need to query that looks something like this:
ID Type Product ID
123 Health 323
123 Health 424
123 Dental 424
124 Health 323
125 Dental 323
What I need to see is something like this:
ID Type Product ID
123 Health 323 + 424
123 Dental 424
124 Health 323
125 Dental 323
In other words, I need to have the Product ID field concatenate for like ID and Type. I know it would likely involve writing some code but I am a total beginner in that respect and I don't know where to even begin. I could really use some help. Of course I need this as soon as possible! :(
To make matters worse (well, maybe it does), I am using Access 97.
Thanks so much!!!

Hey everyone,
Well i've searched, and have been trying to use 'fConcatenateFldGroupBy' in a query in order to perform the following combining of data with a criteria requirement...
All data is in one table: (frequently re-imported, so no relationships)
Obviously data needs to be stored more efficiently, but I have no control over the imported data structure. Here is what I'm after:
Table structure:
ID - Name - Status - Comments
1120 - One - Pass - uniquecomment1
1120 - One - Fail - uniquecomment2
1120 - One - WIP - uniquecomment3
345 - Two - Pass - uniquecomment5
345 - Two - WIP - uniquecomment6
Need a query to format data as:
ID - Name - Status - Comments
1120 - One - Fail - uniquecomment1, 2, 3...
345 - Two - WIP - uniquecomment5, 6..
As you can see comments need to be concatenated with commas seperating them.
As for the Status determination, it needs to be determined for the ID based on certain conditions. If at least 1 is fail, all fail. Iff all pass, all pass. If no fails and 1 wip, WIP, etc.
I have wasted too many hours trying to figure this out on my own, so I'm seeking your help! Any input would be appreciated. Thank you.

I have some data and I want produce a summary report. The trouble is that I need to combine F2 in to one value. AggOfF2 is produced by taking the distinct values for F2 in the group, and concatenating them together with a "/" seperating each element. I don't believe there is a built in function to do what I want, but can I create a function in VB? If so, how?
SOURCE
F1 F2 AMT
1 A 1
1 A 1
1 B 1
2 C 1
3 D 1
SELECT F1, AggFunc(F2) AS AggOfF2, SUM(AMT) as SumOfAmt
FROM SOURCE GROUP BY F1;
SUMMARY
F1 AggOfF2 SumOfAMT
1 A/B 3
2 C 1
3 D 1
Thanks,
David

Dear All:
I have created a form using access 2000. So far, this form already has data and dates in a combox in this format: mm/dd/yyyy.
In the AfterUpdate of the date combobox, I did this:
If graduation_date = #2/1/2004# then
Text_Graduation_date = "dated this first day of february two thousand four."
End If
End Sub
In addition, I have defined many other dates as well using the code above. It works well when I choose the date form the combobox, the other textbox populates, but there are so many more dates in the combo!
Is there a way to auto-populate the textbox with the appropriate text as I scroll through the form?
Thanks,
Dion
