I have a form, and this form contains a list box which displays data from a query. When you double click on the list result it displays the results on the form. (This is done by some visual basic code)
The query which is the source of the list box works so that it displays just the results for that client, with this everything is perfect as an individual form.
However this form is a subform for another form and the subform is placed in a tab. And when i load the form it:
1. Can't find the field to filter the list box to each specific client.
2. When i double click on anything in the list table it displays an error "can't find the form 'frm_jobs' referred to in macro expression or visual basic code".
As it works perfectly when the forms loaded separatley. Im a bit stuck to what the problem maybe.
I have subform which uses a SQL statement as the record source. One of the criteria (ie. Part of the WHERE condition) is a column value from a ListBox on the MainForm.
Two problems exist: 1. When the MainForm opens, I get a "Enter Parameter Value" window, asking me to input the value it should be getting from the ListBox. (I suppose this is fair enough, as the ListBox hasn't been created/populated yet!) 2. When the ListBox is there, when I click on a row, I still get the "Enter Parameter Value" window! -I'm using a Requery on the Subform's control on the MainForm when the row is clicked. -A MsgBox within the OnClick event, is giving me the value that the SQL statement should be using! But the Subform doesn't seem to want to 'see' this value.
Hi All, Thank you for taking the time to read and/or help.
I have a mainform which I call frm1930Census this form has a tabbed form with two subforms one called sbf1930CenHeader and the other called sbf1930CenDep.
On the sbf1930CenDep form, I have a field called FTMID and a command button which opens a popup listbox search form called LstDepSearch.
The listbox has three columns FTMID, LastName, FirstName. The FTMID field is hidden. The popup form in theory stays open until the user double clicks the appropriate person and then have the FTMID field on the frm1930Census.sbf1930CenDep.fTMID fill in.
This is what I have....
Private Sub LstDepSearch_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) Forms.fm1930Census!sbf1930CenDep.Form!FTMID = Me.LstDepSearch.Column(0) DoCmd.Close End Sub
The five listbox controls each show the list by the IngredientType, so one listbox shows vegetables, another Meat, and so on. Multi-select is turned on for each listbox. Here is what I want to do: In the form I want to have a subform that will show what the user clicks in listboxes. This running list, with an extra column next to it that will accept a number. Example: say the user selects 'Ham' from the meat listbox. The subform should then show 'Ham' and a space next to it where he can type an integer (allowing for more meat).
Subform:
Ham | 2 Lettuce | 1 Mayo | 1 Subroll | 1
If the user de-selects the item in the listbox I'd like the subform to delete the item from itself.
I have a Listbox that I want to use to go to a record on a subform. I know that it cant be done with the wizard.
The records that I am looking at don't have an ID so I want to look at both a date field [TrainingDate] and a Time Field [TrainingTime]. I have set the querry up and the list gets populated with the correct information. And I have added the following code to the AfterUpdate Event
I will have a ListBox on the form with “Multi Select” set to either simple or extended. I have a collection of documents which must be recorded in a database. Some documents may have only one author, but could have more. Same with the recipient or copied-to.
Ideally it would be nice to have the ListBox on the left, selected one or more from the list and then pass them to one of the three fields by a command button, sort of like:
I would like to have all of the names selected from the ListBox as a string, but fully understand the problems associated with normalization. Other posts have suggested subforms. So, the question is how to select from the ListBox and then pass the possible multiple selections to discrete fields on a subform that would display, say three fields and which would get away from the normalization issues:
The secondary issue will be that there will be subsequent names which are not found until actually in the process of document review which will create a need to update the ListBox, which I know is not akin to a ComboBox NotInList function.
If there are any thoughts or coding out there which will help, it’d be appreciated. Lawguy
I'm new to MS Access but I'm trying to do subcontractors database for my company. I've got a menu form with to listboxes on it. First listbox is a subcontractor name if I choose the name the second list box will show me the names of the emplyess attached to this subcontractor. Second form is subcontractor details with emplyees subform. If I will dblclick subcontractor listbox it takes me to record with subcontractor but I can't figuret out how to do that if I dblclick the employee listbox it will take me to appropriet subcontractor detail and to wright employee details. PLEASE HELP ME. I'm strugling with this. Thanks
I've made it to set focus to subform, but if I will choose a subcontractor from the first listbox and dblclick on lstEmployee it is choose wrong record of the employee. Have somebody have an idea what I'm doing wrong
I don't know how to attach the file,can sombody tell me how.
Code of this listbox:
Private Sub lstEmployee_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) DoCmd.OpenForm "Subcontractors", acNormal, "", "", , acNormal DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acGoTo, Forms!Menu!lstSubcontractor Forms!Subcontractors!tblEmployeesubform.SetFocus Forms!Subcontractors!tblEmployeesubform.Form.Emplo yeeID.SetFocus DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acGoTo, Forms!Menu.Form!lstEmployee End Sub
I think last line makes me those troubles but I don't have an idea what is wrong.
I am trying to get my VBA to filter the subform, as currently it does nothing! I have copied it from a source on another forum and at the end of the VBA it originally opened up the query.
However I am trying to tailor this query so that instead of it opening the query I can have a datasheet on the form that displays the filtered records..
There are 3 multiselect listboxes
Here is my code
' This code uses ADO and ADOX and is suitable for Access 2000 (and later). ' A reference must be set to Microsoft ADO Ext. 2.7 for DDL and Security. Private Sub cmdOK_Click() Dim cat As New ADOX.Catalog Dim cmd As New ADODB.Command Dim qry As ADOX.View
Hi, I'm new here, so I hope I'm posting this in the correct place. I've searched the forum to see if there are any existing threads that might help me, but I've not found anything that does... (I think this thread ( http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=93444&highlight=Copying+data )may be trying to achieve something similar to me, but I'm a beginner and don't really understand it)
I shall stop waffling! I'm not entirely sure that what I'm trying to achieve is possible, I expect it probably is!
Right, I have a form (frmGroupRegister, which contains exactly the same fields as the table it comes from, tblGroupRegister), which consists of three things:
-GroupDate - The date a group took place on. It is my primary key, as no more than one group occurs on a specific date.
-ParentList (A listbox which contains a query showing the ID number, forename and surname of everyone in a table, tblParentDetails)
-ParentsAttending (A blank listbox)
I would like to place buttons in between the ParentList and ParentsAttending, which would allow users to conduct a 'register' of attendance by copying individual/multiple details from ParentList into ParentsAttending (much like you get when choosing which fields to include in a form when using a wizard for example). I would also like them to be able to remove people from ParentsAttending by using a button in case of accidentally adding the wrong person into the ParentsAttending box.
I'm aware that another, probably simpler way of achieving this would be to use a tick-box system, but I feel that visually, the first method would both look better and demonstrate who is present more clearly.
Any help would be much appreciated, but my Access skills are quite basic and things will probably need to be spelled out for me. I'm using Access 2000 and Windows XP. Thanks for your help, Alice :)
I am using the selections made of the form to generate a query for the user.
I have a CITIES listbox that is populated with values from a stored query.
I would like to make it multi-select and populate a LOCATIONS list box and a NAMES list box based upon the CITIES that are selected.
I have the locations currently populated from a stored query that reads the City selection from the Form. It looks like this
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT (t_location.LOCATION) AS Expr1 FROM t_location INNER JOIN t_asset_master ON t_location.LOCATION_PHY_ID = t_asset_master.LOCATION WHERE (((t_location.CITY)=[Forms]![MasterQueryGenerator]![CityList]));
I also want multi-select so that is you can un-select all and get the results for all cities.
Here is my half thought approach.
Code:
Private Sub CityList_AfterUpdate() 'Dim LocQryStr As String 'Dim r As Integer 'Dim ctl9 As Control 'LocQryStr = "SELECT DISTINCT (t_location.LOCATION) " & _
[Code] ...
I intended to have the variable LocQryStr as the row source but I abandoned the idea of having multi-select when I saw that .Selected(I) never returned true. Its like the values aren't read in this subroutine.
I have a list box called "product list box" based on a query called "searchqry", i also have another listbox called "type list box" , how do i get the type list box to only show "types" based on the section in products list box?
1. On my main form, I have a listbox, I would like to edit the values of the listbox.
To do this, I have a popup form with 2 listboxes, one to have the values of the listbox on the main form, and the other listbox with option values for the 1st
1) how to i pass the rowsource sql of the listbox on the main form to the listbox on the popup form
2) how on closing the popup form, do i update the rowsource sql listbox on the main form from the changed value of the popup form listbox rowsource sql
Okay then, after much trouble and confusion, I finally realized I need to use an Extended listbox in order to allow for multiple items to be selected from a list on my form (rather than the evil multiple selection combobox!).
However, now I am trying to figure out how to make one listbox (IndustryClassification) only be visible if the item "Industry" is selected in another listbox (TypeOfBusiness). Coding I can use for this in the AfterUpdate event of the listbox?
I've got this multiple select listbox which writes data into a textbox:
Private Sub List2_AfterUpdate()
Dim Cursisten As String Dim ctl As Control Dim Itm As Variant
Set ctl = Me.List2
For Each Itm In ctl.ItemsSelected If Len(Cursisten) = 0 Then Cursisten = ctl.ItemData(Itm) Else Cursisten = Cursisten & "," & ctl.ItemData(Itm) End If Next Itm Me.txtCursisten = Cursisten
End Sub
And I've got a SELECT ALL button to select all records in the listbox:
Private Sub cmdSelectAll_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdSelectAll_Click
Dim i As Integer
If cmdSelectAll.Caption = "Alles Selecteren" Then For i = 0 To Me.List2.ListCount Me.List2.Selected(i) = True Next i cmdSelectAll.Caption = "Alles De-Selecteren" Else For i = 0 To Me.List2.ListCount Me.List2.Selected(i) = False Next i cmdSelectAll.Caption = "Alles Selecteren"
The only thing is that when I use the SELECT ALL button, the function List2_Afterupdate doesn't work anymore. There must be a simple solution but I just can't figure it out. Can anyone please help me?
Hopefully somebody can help me on this one. I searched the whole internet and access forums, but I didn't find the exact solution for my problem.
I've got a table with students, a table attendance, where I now only save the students who are absent, but I would like to save also the students who are PRESENT (at the same time). I've got a combobox where I filter the Class, which then updates a listbox with the students from that class. What I do now is select the students from the listbox and then press a save button and it saves the records to the table absence with STATUS: ABSENT.
I would like to save the NON selected students also in that table, but with PRESENT in the column STATUS.
I thought of making another listbox next to it, where after selecting the absent students, they wil apear and disappear in the PRESENT table so I can store all the information. But the only problem is that I can find this solution when the listbox is populated by a list of values instead by a table or query. And the other solution is to store the temporary data into 2 different tables, but that's not working for me because it's a multi user database and everything will be messed up.
Hope that someone can help me, I will be very happy.
Firstly, is it possible to hide unchecked values in a listbox? I have a user with several roles and I want to only show the ticked roles in the listbox.
Secondly, can you create a hyperlink on listbox values? i.e, if I click on "Manager" in the roles listbox, it follows that to another form and opens the record about managers?
I have a form, a couple of comboboxes and text boxes on it. When these are filled out, the SQL of a query is changed using these parameters.
There are three subforms on the form, all pivot charts, all based on the query being changed.
The goal would be to update all three according to the user-given parameters.
Right now the subforms only update if I close and open the form, which is probably not the best solution, since it's too slow.
I've also tried to requery and refresh them, with no result.
Then I tried to overwrite the recordsource of the subforms with the same text that was originally there. This got them to refresh their data, but then all of the charts disappeared and had to be built again, so this is a no go too.
I have two subforms on a main form. Both use similar queries and nearly the same set of records and PK. The first subform is for data entry and the 2nd subform is a continuous form that lists the entries in order that are made from the 1st Subform. (for entering in vacation days and appointments)
The continuous form cannot be edited, it is to be a list for viewing the information only.
I have an edit button next to each record on the continuous form. When the button is clicked, I want it to take the 1st subform to that specific record as well (same PK), so the information can be edited there.
I cannot figure out how to get the 1st subform to go to the record on the continuous form when the button next to that record is clicked on the continuous form.
I tried the DoCmdSearch for record and just keep getting object is not open errors.
I have a data entry subform that is only supposed to show an empty record ready to be populated, and a display records subform that is supposed to show all the records. The subforms are both on the same tab of a tab control on my main form.
Problem 1: The data entry subform shows all the records rather than a blank record. Something on my main form is causing it to show the records when it should not. Any ideas? The Data Entry is set to Yes.
To try to isolate the problem, I created a new form and added the subform to it where it behaves properly:confused:
I then added Me.DataEntry = True to the form open to see if that would solve my problem but it still sets the data entry to no.
If I have the properties box open when in form view of my main form, I can set the data entry to Yes and it works fine until I move to the next record of the main form when it resets to no. Teraing my hair out here.:mad:
My final attempt was to search the entire project to see if there is a "DataEntry = False" somewhere but there isn't. What is setting this property? Any ideas where I should look?
Problem 2:
After entering data in the first subform (data entry form), I want to re-query the second subform but I just can't get the syntax right. I have wrestled with the "Syntax for subs" document downloaded from http://www.mvps.org/access/forms/frm0031.htm (Microsoft MVP site) but to no avail.
My main form is called fdlgPrjDetails, the data entry is via fsubPrjCommentsUsersDataEntry and the subform I wish to requery is fsubPrjCommentsUsers.
None of the attempts below worked giving a cannot find control error.

im having problems getting a subform to calculate another subform's total and display it as it keeps coming up with the #NAME?.Basically my database is like this
tblCustomer - tblOrders - tblItems
and this is displayed on a form. so you can flick through clients, then flick through the orders and its broken down into the items inside each order.i have seen many answers that are only about calculating something on a subform and displaying on a form but this does not work when displaying on a 'parent' subform. the form structure looks like this
i have a calculated control textbox in the footer of sFrmCustomerOrders with sums up all the prices using =sum([Price])and in my sFrmCustomerItems, i have a field called Amount (the total amount of all the items) and the Control Source formula i was using was =[Forms]![sFrmCustomerOrders]![sFrmCustomerItems]![txtTotalPrice] but i get a #NAME? error.
