Stuck On Accessing Subform Control After 2 Days... Help?
Sep 23, 2005
Hi:
Have a employee timesheet application.
I have a form based on tblEmployees table, key Employeeid
Subform1 on that form based on tblWeekStartDate table, key weekstartdate and employeeid. I created 100 entries in this table for each employee so they can pick a week from combo box to enter their hours.
Subform2 within above subform1 based on tblTimeCard with key autonumber field.
When I click a button on main form I want to print preview a report of the form using EmployeeID from main form for critieria for main report and startweekdate field as critieria for subreport.
I'm unable to access the field weekstartdate from subform1 for the criteriea of the subreport query. Weekstardate is in the header of subform1.
In subreport query I'm using for weekstartdate criteria:
Forms!mainform!subform1.form!weekstartdate and query ignores it.
I also created an unbound textbox on mainform with:
=Forms!mainform!subform1.form!weekstartdate
thinking if I could get the subform1 value onto main form then the criteria in subreport query would access it but get #Name.
I did create a dialog box form where when clicking the print button on main form they can pick weekstartdate from dialog form and works fine. It does not make sense for the manager to pick a weekstartdate on the main form and then have to pick it again on dialog box.
I've attached the database. When the main form opens click on the report button.
I want to access individual rows in a subform (frmOrderdetails (datasheet view)).
The reason for this is that I have a checkbox at the end of each orderline, and user will be able to check individual lines and do a return of these lines.
For now, I have a query to return lines, but the problem is that when there are two lines checked, it'll only return the first one.
I had a text box on a main form linked to a text box on a sub form using the following control source =Forms!Form![frm_Doctors_details subform].[Form].[Title]. This was working, however I had to play around with the subform alot and now the link isn't working. All i get in the field is #name?. Nothing has changed on the subform textboxs, just that I added a primary key to assist in the linking action bewteen forms. I can't for the life of me get it back to what it was . any ideas??
Glad I found this forum. First question as user :)
I have a database I am creating with a number of subforms. A few of the subforms I want to be able to quere data from a ODBC connection. When I use the combobox to select a system, the subforms with ODBC connections are not updated. I will not be updating any of the data on the ODBC.
Should I just create a macro that does a delete quere and then make-table quere, or is there a better way?
I have a form containing a subform. Inside the form, i set up a button. Inside the OnClick code of this button, i need to access the information inside the subform.
To access the info inside the form, i know: Me.Fieldname
But inside the subform, i have tried: Me.SubformName.FieldName or SubformName.FieldName And both did not work.
OK. I have searched and searched and every thread dances around similar situations but none seem to address this particular one. I am trying to make a control on a sub form visible/not visible depending on the condition of a control on a main form. The catch is that the control I'm trying to change the state of is on a subform located in a tab control. I've tried a thousand combinations and none seem to work. How do I reference the control on the subform in a tab control?
Main Form: frmMemberMain Tab Control: TabCtl12 Tab Control Page: 2 Subform: frmChildren Control on subform: txtRelationship
Can someone please help before my brain explodes!! Thanks! :eek:
I have problem with my code here. I am using this code to determine if the LogDate with a weekday of Sunday can be declare as Sunday Work or Regular Work. The 1st week of my entry can determine if the LogDate is Sunday then compute if it reaches a 7 days working, if he is absent even 1 (one) day in his previous working days within the week. His Sunday LogDate is considered as Regular Days instead of Sunday Work. Can anyone tell me what is wrong in this code?
The problem here is the computation of 7 days after 1 week. There should be a 7 days computation every week per month in able to declare Sunday Work or Regular Work. I tried this code but it did not work on 2nd week, 3rd week and 4th week of the month.
How come on 2nd week, Sunday (LogDate) is not considered as Sunday Work even he completed the 7 days (working days) per week? I need help on this ASAP Thanks
Tim
Below is the code i'm using for defining Regular days and Sunday Working Days:
Private Sub LogDate_AfterUpdate() Dim rst As DAO.Recordset, rs As DAO.Recordset Dim db As DAO.Database Dim dteToday As Date, dtePrior As Date Dim i As Integer
Set db = CurrentDb Set rst = db.OpenRecordset("SELECT [HolidayDate] FROM tblHolidays", dbOpenSnapshot)
rst.FindFirst "[HolidayDate] = #" & dteToday & "#" 'See if the date entered is a holiday If rst.NoMatch Then Holiday.Value = 0 Else Holiday.Value = 1 End If If Weekday(dteToday) = vbSunday Then 'If dated entered is a Sunday determine if Dim strSQL As String 'it will be a regular day or a Sunday
I have a form where a start date is inputted (Inputfrm , StartDate) and a form where the end date of the process is recorded (Inspectionfrm , EndDate) and these both record in the table InputTbl as StartDate and EndDate respectively.
I have created a union query which shows a list of all the dates where there is work recorded (WorkingDatesQry and the column of list of unique dates is "WorkingDate"), and as we run a highly varied schedule depending on time of the year and order numbers I cannot just use a query which says Monday-Friday or Tuesday - Saturday.What I am trying to do is to find the number of days between StartDate and EndDate where there is a date recorded in the WorkingDates query.
Client has asked me to create a report showing summary of monthly sales by day. That was easy. I created a query for the month the user selected and then summarized and group the data by day. Client like the result but would like to see zeros on the report for non sales days. Non sales days are days like holidays and there are no sales.
I am thinking of creating an table with 31 days of zero values and then join the two tables in a query? Or, should I create a temporary table with code and then merge the two tables which the existing query which I can then use for the report?
I have a query and I need the records to display 3 working days before the 15 working day deadline.
I used the following in the criteria box below the received date field and it doesn't pull the correct number of workdays, it's pulling calendar days instead.

I rent out a property , on the rental statement I have a field [Datepaid], [RentpaidFrom] and [rentpaidTo]. I would to have a field that can calculate the rent that is paid to show if the rent is in arrears or in Advance. I guess the code would be something like (datediff ???? etc) but i have no idea what it should be. the calculation should appear on the query as i.e.2 days in arrears or 12 days in advance etc
I'm new to VBA coding. A code below is copied from a friend of mine and I can't make it work. How to call up this function in my form. In my form I have 3 text boxes (StartDate, EndDate and NumOfWorkDays). My form is based on a table.
Please anyone who would help me on this, kindly give me the step by step procedure as I am really novice. Thanks in advance.
'*********** Code Start ************** Public Function WorkingDays(StartDate As Date, EndDate As Date) As Integer On Error GoTo Err_WorkingDays
Dim intCount As Integer
StartDate = StartDate + 1 'If you want to count the day of StartDate as the 1st day 'Comment out the line above
intCount = 0 Do While StartDate <= EndDate 'Make the above < and not <= to not count the EndDate
Select Case WeekDay(StartDate) Case Is = 1, 7 intCount = intCount Case Is = 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 intCount = intCount + 1 End Select StartDate = StartDate + 1 Loop WorkingDays = intCount
Exit_WorkingDays: Exit Function
Err_WorkingDays: Select Case Err
Case Else MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_WorkingDays End Select
I had a form with two tabs and then added a subform into a third tab. Until I added the subform I could see the tabs at the top in both the design view and the form view. However, since adding the subform, althougth the form looks OK in the design view, when I switch to the form view the tabs are missing. The only way that I am able to get to them is to tab through all my fields until it eventually seems to shift the page up and I can see them. If I switch to another tab and this stage I then have to go throught the same proccess of going through each of the fields until I can see the tabs again.
How do you tab out of one subform and into another from the main form. I have 3 subforms and after a user is finished entering data into the main form the first subform sets focus. After data is entered into the subform it’s impossible to hit the “enter” or “tab” key to move onto the next subform.
I have two forms, ctrlpanel and users. ctrlpanel is acting as the main form and users as the subform. In a module, I have the following code inside a function that is called on in the users subform:
Code: With Forms![ctrlpanel]![users].Form!cmbSection .RowSource = strList .RowSourceType = "Value List" End With
Can't seem to figure out why I get this error. Have tried a couple different ways of doing this with the same result. here is the error: "Microsoft Access cannot find the field 'users' referred to in your expression."
users isn't a field, it's the subform and the syntax above is how many sites show how to refer to the subform.
I have a subform on my main order form. I would like to click a button on my main order form and have it change a control on the subform. For instance, I have 2 controls on my subform, control 1 is a text field, and control 2 is a yes/no box.
When i click the button on my main for order form, I would like it to evaluate control 1 on my subform so that it can adjust control 2.
I would like to see if control 1 is null then set control 2 to yes or true. Thank you in advance for all your help.
how can i focus on a subform control? my main form called form A has a subform called form B. Form B has a button that, when is clicked, starts a new record for Form B source. all works ok while editing form B but when i open Form A and run the same macro, i get an erro saying Form B is not open.
my macro reads- GoToRecord object Type Form Object Name Form B Record New
the button is placed on form B which is sub form to Form A.
This is probably simple, but I can't figure it out.
I have a table called Household that has a one-to-many relationship with a table called Individuals. The Individuals table has fields called FirstName and LastName. I have a main form based on Household. I want to have subforms in a Tab control based on the Individuals table. So when you click Page 1, it shows the data for the first person in the household, and when you click Page 2, it shows the data for the second person in the household. This would work by basing the subform on Page 1 on a query that finds the Min of FirstName, and basing the subform on Page 2 on a query that finds that Max of FirstName. However, the data in the subforms would not be updateable, because queries based on aggregate functions are not updateable.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can accomplish what I'd like to do?
I've use a set up that works fine on a form but doesn't when used in a subform. Basically, i have a check box and txt box that won't allow anything to be written in it unless the check box is checked. If it is checked and nothing is inputted in the text box, the lostfocus event for the txt box flags the user. It works fine in a normal form and when it's a subform, the lostfocus event does fire when going to another control in the subform. The problem is that it doesn't fire when going to another control not in the subform. Is there anyway I can get the lost focus event to fire under these circumstances?
Ok, I'm new here and I've searched through the forums and found similar questions asked but no one ever seems to have an answer. I've also looked on other forums and still no solution. So here goes...
I have a tab control with several tabs. On half of these tabs are subforms and the other tabs just have text boxes. When you click the any of the tabs, the entire tab control shifts to the bottom of the screen. The user would have to manually scroll up to continue inputting data.
I added a .gotopage method to the tab control and that fixed the problem in that when you click on a tabbed page, the page is positioned correctly on the screen. However, if I click on a tabbed page which contains a subform, I now get a VB error which says invalid page number argument.
If anyone has experienced this or knows a fix, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks! :confused:
