I have 2 cascading combo boxes which control what appears in my subform (AuditYear,Company).
Once I select both, sometimes the subform info shows up and a while later I try again, and it doesn't. Then I try some other AuditYear + Company, then THAT shows up...then I try again, it doesn't.
Any ideas?
I have a textbox on a Subform which is updated when a record is double clicked in another Subform. This works fine until i move the mouse over the updated subform. Then the updated entry is replaced with #Deleted. The data is still in the table that gives the subform its value.
Also another form running has the same subform and it and the updated value is shown perfectly in this one.
Anyone know why this may be happening?
It's my understanding of general database practice that an Autonumber field should be used as a primary key in normalisation tables. I realise my understanding could be wrong, and I'm quite happy to change that practice if need be.
I have my normalisation tables. For the most part these consist of an Autonumber field ([UID]) as the primary key, then an indexed, no duplicates text field with the normalisation data. For this case, we'll say it's a list of departments ([DepartmentID]).
I have a form for entering users. Again, the PK is an autonumber field. I used a wizard to create a combo box. I selected the fact that I want to store the value in [DepartmentID], NOT [UID].
This works fine, I can add my users and the combo boxes work, although I had to change the bound column to 2, as 1 is selected by default although it is [UID].
I then created a subform based on a query of all users. This subform is not bound to the main form in any way, it simply shows the result of the query.
When entering users, upon saving a record, the form is updated and the new user shown in the subform. Great, apart from "txtDepartment" in the subform showing [UID], and not [DepartmentID] as stipulated.
I have a horrible feeling this is to do with [UID] being my PK, but I'd like someone to tell me I'm wrong. I can quite happily remove the autonumber field [UID] and make the unique [DepartmentID] field the PK, but this just doesn't seem "correct" to me.
Should I do this? Should I have an autonumber field as the PK?
I realise this is more a design theory question than a form problem as such, but anything that clarifies my understanding of correct design practice will help.
EDIT:- I'd also like to say that I did it this way to get away from using the "LOOKUP" field type at table design time, specifically to avoid this very problem of numbers showing up when I want the text there!
It's been a while since I last used Access but now I need to be reminded how to populate a sub-form with all rows for a query (Access 2013).
- Do I need to establish a relationship between Table A (main form) and Table B (sub-form)?
- What sub-form properties need to be set to display all retrieived rows from the main form query (select where Table A PK = Table B PK)?
So, let's say I have a table named FLOWER_SHIPPING that has field:
Date [Date]
Flower_name [Short Text]
Amount [Long Integer]
Sender [Short Text]
Address [Long Text]
Then I created a form named MAINF with FLOWER_SHIPPING as its RecordSource. The form only has one TextBox: Date.
Then in MAINF, I created a subform named SUBF with FLOWER_SHIPPING as its RecordSource, in Datasheet View. It shows all fields in FLoWER_SHIPPING as it is.
The link between MAINF and SUBF is Date.
I want SUBF to only show record based on the Date chosen in Date TextBox in MAINF. So far, yes it did what I want. But with problems:
1) [SOLVED] SUBF does show record based on the Date I've chosen in MAINF's TextBox Date, but it ALWAYS ALSO shows the first record on the FLOWER_SHIPPING table. And the date in the first record always changed into the Date I just input in the TextBox Date in the MAINF. Automatically.
Example: I chose 6/22/2013, and there are 2 records with that date. the SUBF will show 3 records: those 2 records + the first row of FLOWER_SHIPPING with its Date automatically set to 6/22/2013.
2) When I chose a date in MAINF, I have to click everywhere in the SUBF so that it will refresh its content. Can I have it refresh automatically everytime after a date chosen?
Hi There,
I have got this form, consisting of 1 form (that needs to add a new record to a table everytime) and 1 subform, that needs to show the last three records of the table.
My problem is that I cannot get it right, now both forms (form and subform) are showing the details on just one record. If I open my subform it shows me all the records of a table, but in as soon as I view the form as a subform I shows me only one record.
Any help is welcome, I attached my db, just in case....
I have two subforms in a main form. book_sub and book order subform. there are various subforms which i toggle in book order subform window by changing their properties with command button on main form. here is the code -
Code:
private sub billq_click()
Me.BOOK_SUB.SourceObject = "BILLQ"
Me.BOOK_SUB.LinkMasterFields = "[BOOK ORDER SUBFORM].FORM![ORDER ID]"
Me.BOOK_SUB.LinkChildFields = "[order ID]"
private sub stock_click()
Me.BOOK_SUB.SourceObject = "stock"
Me.BOOK_SUB.LinkMasterFields = "[BOOK ORDER SUBFORM].FORM![BOOKCD]"
Me.BOOK_SUB.LinkChildFields = "[BOOKCODE]"
Now the problem is when i change billq to stock it shows parameter entry window with caption [order id] twice. after clicking ok it does toggle the form to stock. then when i click button for billq again it shows the same thing.
the code works fine except showing parameter entry window twice with every toggle.
I am a bit of a novice when it comes to Access, but have managed to create a form with a subform embedded and various filters to show different data within the subform, including a date range filter. The code I have used for these filters is as follows:
Private Sub Command40_Click()
Dim strCriteria As String
strCriteria = createCriteria("[Introductions].Town", "List78")
strCriteria = strCriteria & " and " & createCriteria("[Introductions].Ownership", "List52")
strCriteria = strCriteria & " and " & createCriteria("[Introductions].Company", "List54")
[Code] ....
This all works fine, but I'm wondering what I need to add to this code to make it so that if the date boxes are left blank, records from all dates are displayed. At the moment I have to enter dates in order for it to work properly.
In my database main form with subform. subform have query as recordsource.total of one of field in subform shown on main form. all is ok and show total correctly but when subform have no records then total field on main form shows #error. How to convert this value either into null string or zero(0).

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just added my third record to my new form and it is gone. However, it shows up in the table. I think it is because there are two record selector bars on my screen. I have two subforms and each one has a record selector bar on them and then there is an additional bar at the bottom that is like for my main form, which is blank. (I don't use the main form. I just have subforms over it.) I think the second record bar is goofing things up? And where is my record I just added. It only shows as two records total. Should I get rid of the subforms record selector bars?

On one of my queries, the dataset is shown with a * as the last record.
There's nothing in it apart from blank data but it is appearing on my forms.
All my other queries do not seem to have this.
Is there a setting to stop these from appearing ?
I wondering if anyone knows of an automatic way that changes can be tracked on a form.

I have a form with a subform which has a listbox on it which lists all the letters sent home to a student. However despite the subform being linked by admission Number the list box is showing all records and not just the ones associated with the student.

Hello,
How would I go about in making a command button bring up a report to show a result of items for the end of the month?
For example, when a user clicks on this button it will bring up a report showing all the items that are out of date for the end of the month. I am having problems with the query as for months have different lengths e.g. 28/29/30/31 days. How would I make a query show the end result for each month correct as February if going to be different each time i.e. when it is a leap year. I have got far but having trouble with this part.
Hope you can help.
I know this is probably posted in a dozen places, but I don’t think I have the smarts to find stuff with the search.
I use the results of a combo box for the criteria in a saved query. Can anyone tell me how to make it show all the record if no selection is made?
Thanks again Folks,
Joe
Okay I have a database that stores information on some payments.
Payments can be made on different dates and multiple times during the month.
There is an account number which will have duplicates in the table if there is more than one payment. This is fine.
However, I need a query which will show only those records for account numbers which appear only once.
So if it has duplicates, it is ignored, otherwise it's reported.
TIA for the help.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a database that reuses many queries in several different macro's. Any way to generate a report, (or purchase an add-in), that will show for each query any other queries that use it. It would be ideal to show all of the "cascading" queries that one query is built on. It just gets confusing when I need to tweak a query to then have to figure out there are other queries that use the one that's being tweaked and the tweak will change the results of the other queries.
View 3 Replies View RelatedThis is a very quick question. I have a query what i need it to do is show me all values that equal 2 and any records that are blank, this is what the criteria looks like currently
Field: Month([FDate])
Total:Group By
Criteria: Month([DDay1])
Now the way this works is it only shows records where the field meets the criteria, in this case Month([FDate]) = 2
I need the criteria to say if Month([DDay1])=Month([FDate]) Or is equal to "" Then display records.
EDIT: I just found out how to view blank values but what if records for it dont even exist... i still want to show the other fields..
Thanks

Hello team,
My database window is hidden.
I have a form with data about an article. When I click a button, another form opens showing a sales graph of that article.
On the form with the graph, I have put another button to print it. The code behind that button is:
Private Sub printpriceevolution_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_printpriceevolution_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim MyForm As Form
stDocName = "frm_priceevolution"
Set MyForm = Screen.ActiveForm
DoCmd.SelectObject acForm, stDocName, True
DoCmd.PrintOut
DoCmd.SelectObject acForm, MyForm.Name, False
Exit_printpriceevolution_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_printpriceevolution_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_printpriceevolution_Click
End Sub
The funny thing is that after the printing (which works fine) my database window is shown, where it is supposed to be hidden.
Any idea what could trigger this? Does it have to do with pop-up dialog box settings?
Thanks
I have a table with some combo selections with row source No;Yes, bound column 1, column count 1, and default value "No", limit to list set to yes, required = yes, allow zero length = no.
When I create a new record though, all of the combos show 0, and I have to select No or Yes manually. The requirement is that No is the default value..
Lots of thanks in advance,
Aidan
I would like to have a button on my form that would update a record to a closed status, but I want to have an "Are You Sure?" window pop up first. I did a search on "verify," "verification," "sure," and several others but haven't found what I need. I looked through my Access bible, with no luck.
Any help is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!
