Hello,
I attached a db to better display what I'm attempting to do. How can I get fld1 in subfrm1 (which is in column view) to display the same data in subfrm2 (which is in tabular view)? --
so if I click on the text displaying "dog" in subfrm1, subfrm2 displays "dog" row. If I click on "cat", subfrm2 displays "cat" row?
I am having trouble keeping focus on a field in a subfrm when I click the next button for the next record.
I have a frmQuiz. This shows the quiz question. I have a subfrmUserAnswers, where the user enters the Answer ID in the field UserAnswerID. This form clears to a new record when the Next button is pressed for the next question and the focus is lost.
How can I maintain the focus?
I have a form that has names with a subform with information. The contacts are in a list box and the subform (in datasheet view) shows the phone number/email/etc.. of the selected contact person. I am using the form as a quick look up of a persons information. Before changing it to a list box, it was previously a combo box, and everything worked fine. i was able to requery the subform and the cooresponding info for the person would come up. However, its now a list box and i am having problems with the code to make this happen. I have a different button sending the names selected from the list box to a report...and that works fine, but i am obvisouly missing something to make it work with the subfrm requery. Below is the code i got so far. Any help would greatly be appreciated. its driving me nuts!
Private Sub QuickLookup_Click()
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim strWhere As String
strWhere = "[memberID] = "
For Each varItem In Me.MemberID.ItemsSelected
strWhere = strWhere & Me.MemberID.ItemData(varItem) & " OR [memberID] = "
Next varItem
strWhere = Left(strWhere, Len(strWhere) - 17)
DoCmd.Requery "subfrmqryindividual"
Hi,
Haven't used the 'ondirty' property before and am having trouble with it.
I have a main form (PersAction) with a subform (PersAction_PersData). After Insert button is click, subform appears ready for new data. click save works great. I wish to have an undo button on the main form become visible once data is entered into the subform. I've tried the following code in both the main form and subform 'Ondirty' property as an event and no luck:
If Me!PersAction_PersData.Dirty Then
Me!cmdUndo.Enabled = True ' Enable button.
Else
Me!cmdUndo.Enabled = False ' Disable button.
End If
Any help would be appreciated
thanks in advance

How do i make my subfrm record source switch to another saved query (qryPendingStatus) when it's opened from the form.
Heres what i am trying to accomplish:
I have a subfrm that i'd like to use to display info in 2 different forms.
There's a form currently for All statuses. Then another new one for Pending status. I'd like to use the same subform for this pending status form also, and in doing that my qryAllStatuses, but change to qryPendingStatus on the subfrm when i open the mainfrom.
This is on the open even ofthe mainform, but does not work (says method not founds...so obviouly i can't use ".Recordsource" here:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.subfrmJobInfo.RecordSource = "qryPendingStatus"
End Sub
How can i make this happen?
I added a new field to one of my tables and query, but when I try to add a control for that field into my form it is not recognising it and the field isn't appearing in the sources for the form, even though the table is sourced to the form? Or am I going to have to do the usual and redo the entire form because I made a minor adjustment?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form with a tab control, inside the tab control I placed an ActiveX control (Microsoft Web Browser). These are at the bottom of the form.
Everything displays fine if the entire form fit on the screen but if the form is too long and I scroll down the browser control is getting obscured by the tab control and getting chopped off (the contents are covered). It is as if the browser control is staying in space where it was and moving behind the tab control as I scroll.
This problem does not occur if I place the browser control directly on the form. Also I note that the browser control is sitting correctly within the tab control.
I have been through all the settings and properties of both controls and haven't been able to fix it. I searched all over the web but no one has previously stumbled across this one by the look of it.
See the attached image ...
I have table that I had to add a new field to which we update with a form. I tried to add a control for the new field but the field does not show up in the list for the control source. I am trying to add a list box to the form with a blank and 5 options.
I have attached screen shots of the table design and the form. The table has the field in datasheet view and I have manually entered a few entries in it but it still will not show in the control source for the form control. The top section of the form is where we enter and select the data for the new records. The bottom section (circled in red) autofills the matching record, from separate tables, for updating with the new entries.
I have added form controls for modified fields in the past so I am confused about why this is happening.
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:
Hi,
I have reviewed the posts for 'Control Validation' and dowloaded the sample database kindly posted by ansentry.
In the PaymentAmount example, a name has to be entered in the first control before an amount is enterered in the second control. If the controls and tab order are reversed, the validation doesn't work.
I have a form where the 1st Control needs validating before moving on. The code below doesn't work.
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If IsNull(Me.Employee_No) Then
MsgBox "Employee No Required", vbCritical, "Data required "
Cancel = True
Me.Employee_No.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I have used a tab control to create some forms. However, I can't modify or delete any of the information. It's seems like the forms are just read-only.
How can I change it so that I can modify and delete info please?
Thanks in advance.
Hi all,
I am creating a DB using tab controls, I have my information in each tab section. When I come to view in Form View and move my mouse around the tab page it shudders for some reason? anyone know why and how i can fix it?? Thanks:confused:
I would like to be able to add a tabbed control to one of the pages of a tab control. I have made several attempts and it hasn't worked. There is no reference to it in MS help. I have seen many databases with this facility (not necessarily MS Access). Can anybody offer a suggestion please.

I usually use wizard for creating forms only now I need to have tabs for quite a few forms.
I've recently discovered that you cant simply put your labels and field on a page then select another tab and put other labels and fields on. I've tried looking frmSampl provided by microsoft put cannot figure out hows the single form with tab control on it works.
Can anyone direct me to online help with forms or provide any help with the tab control tool?
I want a Command Button on a form to move to the next Command Button. I basically want to do the same thing as the Tab button on my keyboard. However, I do not want to use the keyboard.
View 5 Replies View RelatedWe have just been upgraded to '03 and while poking around noticed that the tab control changed a little. The main diff was the active tab is slightly easier to pick up because of the highlight line (See attachment). Does anyone know of any other changes in the newer version in the tab control or any other control?
View 6 Replies View RelatedThis seems like it would be easy enough, but I can't seem to find an answer. I'd like to put a tab control on one page of a main tab control. I've tried to select the page and create a new tab control and cut and paste existing tab control, but in both cases the tab control pastes into the detail section of the form (where my main tab control is) and thus appears on all pages. Anyone know what I need to do? Thanks for any help.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have added tab controls to my already created form. My original page sits there alone, not on a tab control. How do I put it on a tab control without having to re do everything??? I tried to put it on a tab/page and it lost all the lable names and changed it to numbers.

I'd like to bar (make unable to use ) a combo list on my form. The state of the combo list should depend on the true/false state of a checkbox.
I don't know whether it is possible in access.
I'd like to ask for your help.

BR,

A simple question. I have tried to add Tab Control(s) in another tab control but those added tab control added in one particular tab control are shows on all tab controls in the same forms. Is it MS Acess limitation or I just don't get it done correctly?

If this issue had been addressed before, please direct me to the thread; otherwise please help.
I've created several TABS on a form. Each tab contains several drop down lists.
I've also put a field above the tabs for displaying the choices that I make on the various tabs, BUT I can't get the choices to display in the field above the tabs.
Can anyone help?
Just wanted a little help please. I have about 100 option boxes on a form and I want to be able to change the names of the option box and its label. I want to name them from 1 to 100 sequentially. (i.e. option1, option2 ...).
When I create the controls it automatically names them option0, option2 etc. and label3, label5 etc.
I was going to change them via some code but I don’t know how to refer to a control in a form from design view.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks

Thanks
When the application starts up I need to control the user of the system, I will have to accounts which I will define one will act as an admin and the second will act as a user the differences is that the user acts is “read only” cannot add, delete and edit.
I would appreciate your comments and ideas regarding this part?
Thanks.
I am not even totally sure that is what you call it. . but I have most of my experience in VB.NET and this VBA in Access 2002 is killin me. HA. . .
I am trying to dynamically create checkboxes (50 of them) in 10 rows and 5 columns. This is part of a "im bored" project and would like to be able to tackle the dynamic controls area.
I am thinking I want to keep the naming convention as "chkBox01. . .02. . .03" so that I can use the mid() function to determine its "value" and apply the value in the proper place.
I suppose the only thing I need is an example if anyone has one of a checkbox or any control for that matter being made by VBA and not placed on the form manually. 50 check boxes suck when trying to rename them all. sigh
