Switching To Current Record
Nov 19, 2004Hi,
You know how there's MoveFirst, MoveLast, MoveNext, and MovePrevious to go to a recordset and make changes? Well, I just want to make changes to one recordset, and that would be the one I would be currently working on. That way I don't have to run the program for every single record everytime I want to modify one thing for one record. Is there something like a MoveCurrentRecord? Thanks =)

Access Switching To Frontend And Backend
Nov 18, 2012I am very good at excel and can program macros. I am being asked to build something in access for my company, or at least manage a build. So here is my question... If we build it without both a front and back end, is it easier to take what you have and switch it to a front and back end? Also, when and why is it better?
View 4 Replies View RelatedToggle Button, Focus, Switching Back And Forth
Feb 6, 2006Here's a little design problem, all of my VB script works fine, it's just a design problem:
Toggle Button (onClick) {
if pressed in, unlock protected field, pass focus to protected field
else (if not pressed in), lock protected field
}
Protected Field (lostFocus){
When Focus is lost, protect field then reset toggle button
}
See, there's no way that I know of for Access to tell what field has focus at any given moment. It lies inert until an event fires off then it responds. You can't wake Access up and tell it to go do something. So, Protected Field has to lock itself when it loses focus.
Here's the problem. If a user unlocks the field but then decides not to make a change and clicks the toggle again to lock the field, first Access fires the script to protect the field (locking it), then it resets the toggle button, then it registers the toggle button click which unlocks the field. See the problem? If the user changes their mind about changing the field and then tries to lock the field, it ends up unlocked. I need something that will work whether the user is good about it or whether the user is in a rush and forgets about it.
Switching Subforms Based On A Record Selection
Jan 18, 2006Right slightly complicated (in my eyes) and I have not found anything in previous threads to help but here goes:
I have a main form (FRM_SUMMARYREVIEW) that has an unbound subform field on it (subfrmmaster).
When FRM_SUMMARYREVIEW is first opened subfrmmaster has its sourceobject set to a form called FRM_OPENSUMMARY.
This subform lists all my open escalations, in a continuous forms format and has a field in it called "escalationid" and when I click this field "subfrmmaster" changes it's sourceobject to another form called FRM_MAINDATA and should display the data relevant to the escalationid I have just selected.
In the past I used to click on "escalationid" and it opened up FRM_MAINDATA as a new form, using the following code:
Dim Searchstr2 As String
Searchstr2 = "[Escalation ID] = " & Forms![FRM_SUMMARYREVIEW]![FRM_OPENSUMMARY].Form![escalationid]
DoCmd.OpenForm "FRM_MAINDATA", acNormal
Forms!FRM_MAINDATA.Filter = Searchstr2
Forms!FRM_MAINDATA.FilterOn = True
However how can I get the subfrmmaster sourceobject to change and display the relevant escalation detail ?
My other option is to have two subforms on the main form, one with "FRM_OPENSUMMARY" the other with "FRM_MAINDATA", as "FRM_OPENSUMMARY" has a list of escalations displayed, in a continuous forms format could I set it so as I arrow down the list, the data in FRM_MAINDATA displays the highlighted escalation in "FRM_OPENSUMMARY".
I hope this makes sense

Cmb Residual Lookup Info When Switching Records
Apr 30, 2008Understand the basics of using a cascading combo box as follows:
Table criteria for stblDiscipline set to [forms]![frmPersonContact].cmbDiscipline
and SQL statement for
cmbDiscipline_AfterUpdate()
Me.cmbSubDiscipline.Requery
When I switch to another record the cmbSubDiscipline displays the correct value from the table but, the selection values are left from the last Requery. Unfortunately, the combo box will also let the user select one of the incorrect values. Tried to add a _Current statement without success.
Reports :: Breaking To New Page If Subreport Cannot Fully Print On Current Page
Nov 12, 2013I have a report which includes several subreports. There will be times when a subreport prints partially on one page and completes on the next. I don't always want to break to a new page with this subreport. However, I would want to break to a new page if the subreport cannot fully print on the current page.
View 3 Replies View RelatedSection Header At Bottom Of Page And Detail Lines On Next Page
Nov 22, 2004I have a report that lists states and cities within the states. When a state name happens to be at the end of the page the individual cities appear on the next page with no State heading. I solved the second page problem by setting the "repeatSection = Yes" in the Section Header (though I haven't shown that in the example below).
But the previous page (which just shows the State Name and no cities looks dumb. Is there some sort of solution.??
(Actually I would also like any State that continues to a next page to not just have the state name but something like
" Colorado (Continued)" Is there anything I can do in VB to make a page break if the section is going to print but therer isn't enough room for one detail line?
This is what I currently see
Alaska
Ancorage
Prudo Bay
California
Whittier
Anaheim
Colorado

Reports :: Page Header - Don't Display If No Detail Records - On Last Page
Jun 13, 2015If I have a report and it has controls (labels representing column titles) in the page header. Now when I print the report - if it happens that the last page has no detail records - but there is text boxes and so forth in the report footer. Is there a way to not display the page header on the last page?
I have a report where the last page shows the page header - and the field/column labels on the page header - but for which there is no detail records left to display - on the last page. There is report footer information that should display. It just looks weird because the field/column labels show at the top of the page - but there is no data remaining to print under them on that last page.
Forms :: Tabbed Form Validation Before Switching Tabs
Mar 20, 2013I have a tabbed form built in Access 2007. It's a series of about 32 different questions, with some being fill-in, some drop down boxes to select from, some radio buttons to choose a rating from 1 to 5. The reason I used a tabbed form was just to keep things consolidated on one screen where no scrolling was involved. All of the entries on each of these tabs are deposited into the same single table. I have 7 tabs, and all of the fields on the 7 tabs compose a single record in the table.
I have the actual tabs hidden, and instead use a button to switch to the next tab (Continue button at the bottom) once all the fields on that tab have been completed. I have all of the necessary fields set to be required, but Access does not validate the entries until the very end of the survey when they click a 'submit' button that actually saves the responses and returns to the opening splash page to start the survey again.
What I want to happen is for the fields on the current tab to be validated before it lets the user move to the next tab with the continue button. If they click continue and have left any fields blank they should get a message that all required fields must be completed or something similar to that.
I have found a thread here entitled "Form Validation before Moving to another Tab" which sounds similar to what I'm doing, but using the button method to navigate to the next tab, there is no BeforeUpdated event to assign that code to.
Forms :: Wrong Focus When Switching Among Pages Of TAB Control
May 3, 2013I have a form with a TAB control and four pages. Each control of each page has his TAB index set correctly (starting from 0 to n), some of controls are not enabled to be tabbed. The form's cycle is set on "Current page".
I have two kind of problems.
First: I am on the last control of the page, pressing TAB key the focus gets invisible. Press TAB key again and the focus moves on the first page's control. For each page happens this behaviour.
Second: clicking randomly on the TAB pages the focus is not always on the control with TAB index 0, but usually on the last.
I have read that clicking on a new page the focus should be automatically on the first control, but this does not happen in my experience.
Forms :: Switching From Design View Causes Access To Freeze?
Dec 30, 2014Access 2013 on Windows 7 ..I have a Main Switchboard form which is Pop-up and Modal. Everything on it is working as required, but if I am in Design View and try to switch directly to Form view, the form disappears and the Access screen freezes - the mouse moves, but no menus or objects can be selected. If I have the VBA window open, I can carry on working in it, saving the modules and closing that window as usual. But the only way to open a form or do anything else in the main screen is to kill Access by closing the Access window in the system tray (or using the Task Manager).
If I close the Switchboard when in Design view and then open it in Form view, everything's fine.
The only recent change I can think of is upgrading from a 32-bit implementation of Access to 64-bit.

View 3 Replies View RelatedData Access Page Filter Refresh The Page
Dec 30, 2007Hi All,
I have a data access page needs a filter by a dropdownlist, the dropdownlist used is a html control and I use javascript to filter the data programmaticlly in the onchanged event of the control.
MSODSC.DataPages(0).Recordset.Filter="AppID = 3";
My problem is, when this statement runs, the page refreshes. But I don't need the page refreshes, it set the dropdownlist text to the default text, not the value user select. The browser is IE7.
How can I stop the page refresh itself?
Thanks and Happy New Year!!
Forms :: One Page Form Printing Blank Second Page

Reports :: Footer To Bottom Of Page Or Page Footer To Last Page Only
Oct 23, 2014I am trying to create an invoice report. I want to add all the costs from the detail section in my footer. I have accomplished this in either the Report footer and/or the page footer, but the problem is that the report footer doesn't go to the bottom of the page, and the page footer doesn't go to just the last page. I have tested a bunch of suggestions that don't seem to work.
1. Print page footer with Report header = NO - only works if your report is two pages or more.
2. Private Sub PageFooterSection_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
If Page = Pages Then
Me.[TextBoxName].Visible = True
Else
Me.[TextBoxName].Visible = False
End If
End Sub
The Page functions worked, but it did not change the results from page to page. If it was a two page report, then the if statement is false and the text box was not visible on page 1, but it also was not visible on page 2.

Calendar On Page 1 Also Displaying On Page 4 Of Form
Sep 3, 2006Hi All
I have added the Allen Browne Calendar 2k control to my form.
My form consists of 4 pages. On pages 2 and 3 I have subforms and on page 4 I have Personal data. Page 1 is general data and the Calendar is on Page 1.
What is happening is that the Calendar is also being displayed on my 4th page, in the same position as page 1. When I try to move it, cover it or delete it from page 4, it is also gone from page 1.
Any suggestions please?
Many thanks

Reports :: Page Footer To Print On The 1st Page Only
May 17, 2013I've used the following code on the footer on print procedure:
Private Sub PageFooterSection_Print(Cancel As Integer, PrintCount As Integer)
Me.PageFooterSection.Visible = (Me.[Page] = 1)
End Sub
This works fine when you view it in print preview, but the footer don't show up at all when you actually print it.The reports default view itself is set print preview.
