Tab Controls On Subform For Sequential Records
May 19, 2006
I have a form with 3 tabs...each tab has the same subform embedded in it.
There are 3 sequential records in the database, and my desire is to have each record display on its' proper tab.
How can I set filter criteria for each subform to append the record sequence identifier to the link master/child fields to ensure that only the appropriate record displays on each tab?
Basically, I trying to use tab controls with embedded subforms to display the many side of a one to many relationship. The parent form contains the data for the parentrecord, and I want the subform, with a tab for each related record, to show the child side of the data relationship. One child record per tab, utilizing the same identical sub-form for each.

I have a sub form that allows users to add staff to a project team, once added it populates a table which updates the subform showing the selected employee. I am trying to enable a delete function that allows users to remove an employee from the project team in the subform showing selected staff. Here is the code I have so far, but it doesn't work;
Code:
Private Sub Command4_Click()
Dim dbs As Database
Dim rs As Recordset
Dim sqlstr As String
Set dbs = CurrentDb
sqlstr = "DELETE tbl_CapexStaff.* FROM tbl_CapexStaff WHERE CAP_ID = Forms!frm_Switchboard.CAP_Live"
dbs.Execute (sqlstr)
End Sub

I have a subform which lists a set of records. In the footer section of the subform, I have a number of controls which display calculations based on the records present.
The number of records in the subform will change (reduce). Basically, this is a review / approval function, the idea being that each record will be checked and approved, which will then remove it from the list.
So eventually, all of the records in the subform should disappear (the subform is requeried each time the user approves a record)
I want to be able to hide the controls in the footer section once the subform has been cleared of all records.
But not sure
a) how to determine when the subform's recordset reaches zero and
b) what event to use to fire the code to hide the footer controls.
This is my basic attempt :
Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()Dim ctl As Control
For Each ctl In Me.FormFooter.Controls
ctl.Visible = Not (Me.Recordset.EOF)
Next ctl
End Sub
But it doesn't work (it only seems to fire when the subform is loaded, not when it is requeried after each approval?)
I've tried Form_Query, Form_DataChange and Form_DataSetChange but no joy with those either.

1. Which event occurs when anything changes on subform (Delete row , add row , perform the sort, Especially when you add a row to be inserted in the current sorting between the rows)
2. I have column sequential number that need updating when occurs any event on subform
3. "On current" is event that occurs always when changing rows in subform, how to process rows sequential (row by row) thru subform and update field that represent sequential number.

Need a sequential number on report. Have an unbound text box and set it to list a running sum over group. The twist is that I'd like to have it start with an assigned starting number [Starting Number] and then add 1 to each subsequent record. It works for the first record but then the next record is last value + [Starting Number]. Basically it is a check run where I would list the starting number and the report would do the rest.

I am trying to create a database that will have records that include dates and a number assigned to that date. ex., the 3rd day of the quarter will be numbered 3 and the 43rd day numbered 43. I will do this via table.
After running a query that will identify a subset of records, I only want to see those records that are part of a 10-day or greater span. There could be multiple 10-day+ spans over a given quarter.

I have a form with four unlinked sub forms on - I am hoping to
1) add a value from one subform to another and more importantly
2) update 1 subform when the other is amended...how exactly do I reference subform 2 from subform1.
I have tried me.parent!form2 and forms!mainform!form2.requery etc but can't get it right

I've received a database that is a digitized population register from the 19th century. All adults have been entered into the database, but all children are missing.
Every person has a unique number that corresponds with the original source (this variable is called 'no', this is not the autonumber primary key thing). Instead of searching in the original source which numbers are still missing, I would like to add the missing numbers (with no additional information, because I still need to type that in).
For example, the table now looks like this:
no - name_last - name_first - occupation etc
1 Smith Henry baker
2 Smith Mary
5 Williams John butcher
6 and so on
So 3 and 4 are missing.
How can I add these missing numbers automatically?

Hello,
I need some help with a piece of code for a db.
This code checks to see if the last three characters on a ControlSource.Tag property are "Req" and if they are, tests if it's null or = 0 and if it is then it outputs a msg box stating that the control.ControlSource is required. It does it for every control on the main form.
This has worked.
Now, i need to allow for multiple subforms to be located on the main form along with their controls being tested as well. I want to start another loop for each time the conrol on the mainform is a subform.
I have that done so far by using "If TypeOf ctl Is SubForm Then..."
This is the part i need help with. I want to search all of the controls on the subform when it is a subform. I need to search all of the controls on the subform then, and i'm not quite sure of the syntax.
I've tried various somethings like SUBFORMCONTROL.Controls but that hasn't seemed to work...
If someone could help me, that would be wonderful!

Hello,
my problem looks so stupid, but I'm not able to solve it..
I've a form with two subforms in it and one of them is behaving in a strange way.
I open the form and type something in a text box in the form. Now I can type something else in a text box in the first subform but I'm not able to write anything in a textbox in subform n°2. It's textboxes (and also other controls like combo,...) look like they are not enabled (but they are enabled!!).
This subform has also got a Button, and it works (It deletes current record).
If I close the form and reopen it and I go straight to subform n°2, now I'm able to insert text in it's controls, but I'm not able to edit the controls in the main form and in subform n°1.
I hope my problem is clear
Please help!!

Well this is going to take a bit of explaining, because my colleagues and I are totally baffled.
I have an Access 2000 front end connected to a Sql production server. I went to make some changes to my forms and subforms, but I did not want to do it with the live data. So I made a copy of the database to my own Sql server on my desktop. So far so good . . . Now when I opened my main form, my subform appeared, but its controls were invisible--I still had not touched the code.
I looked at all the properties for my form and subforms and it is set to Visible and Display always. Now, even stranger, when I advanced my records, if the subform had data its controls would become visible, and then disappear again when I reached a record that had no data for the subform (the main form and the subform are bound to two seperate tables within my database, all the subform controls are bound as are the majority of the form's controls).
Then I went to the code. Nowhere do I change the Visible related properties within the form/subform code. I decided to put a Stop in the Form_Current code of the subform and see what happens as I advance from record to record. What happened was that when I reached a record with subform data present the stop would be read and I would toggle through the Form_Current code. When I would reach a record with no subform data, the Form_Current code would not be read as evidenced by there being no Stop action.
Anyone have an idea of what's going on? Something gets changed when I connect to my local SQL server. Even when I reconnect to the production server the problem remains. Its like some property changes, although I cannot find it, and it is changed permanently. The only property I play with by code is that I enable the controls of the subform when there is NO data in the subform, and I disable the controls when there is data. This code follows:
Private Sub Form_Current()
On Error GoTo Err_Form_Current
If Me!AssignedNumber = True Then
Me!AssignedNumber.Enabled = False
Me!txtWTNumber.Locked = True
Else
Me!AssignedNumber.Enabled = True
Me!txtWTNumber.Locked = False
End If
Exit_Form_Current:
Exit Sub
Err_Form_Current:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Form_Current
End Sub
Finally I tried to set Visible to true within my code for the individual controls, but that still did not overide the problem. I connect to my server via an ODBC connection to a .dsn.
Thanks in advance for bearing with me,
Tony

I have a subform (in form view) in a form that is used for data entry. When I open the form the subform is blank except for the navigation controls. The navigation controls are disabled though. If I switch to datasheet view I will see the column headers but there won't be any place to type data (no white boxes). This doesn't happen if my master and child fields aren't set up, but obviously that will show the wrong data and create other kinds of entry problems. Right now the tables are empty so that could be part of the problem, but I shouldn't have to manually enter a record so my form will look right.

Hi,
I have two subForms on separate pages of a Tab Control on a main form. I want to create a Textbox on one Form to display the month of a Date field on another form, using DatePart.
Using the On Current event, this works ok, if I have the 'other' subForm open in its own right, but I get message telling me it can't be found if i don't. Here is what I have...
Private Sub Form_Current()
If Not IsNull(Forms![Reviews]!SelectLessee) Then
Dim revDate As Date
revDate = Forms![subReviewPEST]!DateOfNextCreditReview
Me.Text118.Value = DatePart("m", revDate)
End If
End Sub
What syntax do I need, or how then can I access the control without having the subForm open itself, by getting to the page on the tab control, then to the control on the subform...

I have a main form, lets call it FrmMain. In addition, I have a subform on FrmMain that has a tab control on it (frmSubform). What I would like to do is on form load, reference the tab control that is on the subform, loop through the controls/textboxes, lock them and change their backcolor. The code I am attempting is listed below, however, I am getting a "type mismatch error" highlighting this line:
PHP Code:
Set Frm = Forms!frmConsultingMain!FrmConsultingFeeDataÂ
Below is my code:
PHP Code:
Dim ctl As ControlDim Frm As FormSet Frm = Forms!frmmain!FrmSubformFor Each ctl In Frm.Controls   Â
If (TypeName(ctl) = "Textbox" Or (TypeName(ctl) = "combobox") Or (TypeName(ctl) = "listbox")) Then       Â
ctl.Value = Null        ctl.BackColor = vbYellow        ctl.Locked = True    End IfNext ctlÂ

I have a library database with a form called Author and a subform from a junction table. The junction table connects Title/Genre. It's many to many because I usually have a few genres for one book.
This is my problem. I want to add more information to the subtable that is in the junction table. For every record I would like to add also Book Group (I am a member of several groups and want to remember which one I read the book with) and Purchased From.
So I am assuming I have to have 2 lookup controls to be able to add Book Group and Purchased from since neither one is on the junction table (and they both come from tables). Or do I add them to the junction table?

I have some controls that I want to line up. Some are on the main form and some are on a subform. My questions is how do I do it? I normally
Select all of the controls then click on align and align top and left. Will that work here?
Again some controls on main and rest on subform.

I have a continuous subform with multiple controls (textboxes) per row.
I'm trying to set up conditional formatting such that certain textboxes are highlighted based on comparisons with other textboxes within the same row/record.
What's bothering me is, I have managed it for one, but struggling to do it for others!
For example - I want to highlight 'similar' records (i.e. possible duplications) - and have managed this by adding a textbox across the length of the row and applying the following CF expression :
Quote:
DCount("[ID]","[tblMyTable]","[ID] <> " & "txtID" & " And [Field1]=" & "txtField1" & " And [Field2]=" & "txtField2" & " And [Field3]=" & "txtField3" & " And [Field4]=" & "txtField4" & " And [Field5]=" & "txtField5")>0
Works brilliantly - highlights all records where fields 1 thru 5 hold common values.
Now I want to highlight where two fields within the same record are different (i.e. they are driven by different data but should hold the same value)
Am trying this :
Quote:
"txtField3"<>"txtField4"
But it's not working - it's highlighting pairs of fields even though they do hold the same value.
Even tried switching it for a DLookup (which seems like doubling up on effort, but just to see if it worked)
Quote:
DLookUp("[Field3]","[tblMyTable]","[ID]=" & "txtID")<>DLookUp("[Field4]","[tblMyTable]","[ID]=" & "txtID")
But no dice? I can't figure out why the same basic logic which works so well for the first CF, doesn't hold for the second one.

I have placed an unbound subform on a form. I have the following code which loads in different datasheet to the subform:
'Loads in NewQuery
Me.data.SourceObject = "query.NewQuery"
'Loads in NewQuery2
Me.data.SourceObject = "query.NewQuery2"
etc.... this works fine to show these queries but i want to know how to reference the fields on the datasheet.
for example one of the fields in NewQuery is "ID"... When clicked i want to run code... normally on bound subform i could go for example ID_Click()... msgbox(me.ID)
how can i reference these other fields on unbound???

So I am creating a Complaint Tracking Database with Access 2013. In my 'complaint entry form' I have added to ability to "Open" and "Close" the complaint. While the complaint is open the user is able to enter/edit data in the complaint (new or old). When the complaint is "Closed" (done so with a button on the form that prompts the user to enter a date of their choice) the user should not be able to enter/edit data in the given complaint. In my original thinking, I placed checks on various events (on load, after update, on click) that checked to see if the current complaint had a date in the "Close date" field.
If the close date field was null then that meant that the complaint was open and the the controls would NOT be locked. If the close date field was NOT null (i.e. a date was present) then the complaint was closed and the main form fields were locked but the data was still viewable and unless they "re-opened" the complaint they could not change the data.
Now, in the complaint entry form, I have a subform that acts as a action tracker that is used by the user to keep track of the actions taken on the complaint (i.e. they requested documentation from such and such on this date..etc). My problem through all of this is upon closing the complaint and locking the main form controls, my subforms data just vanishes! At first I figured the problem might be with the linking of master and child fields, so I made sure that I left the ID in the main form unlocked when I loop through my controls during the locking process. This did not solve my problem. Code below:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim ctl As Control
If Not IsNull(Me.close_date) Then
Me.FormHeader.Visible = True
Me.btnClosed.Enabled = False
Me.btnOpen.Enabled = True
For Each ctl In Me.Controls
[Code] .....

I have a form where you enter a Case number (Primary key) and EmployeeID (foreign Key), the employeeID must match a employeeID held in the employee table. Within this Case form, I have a subform called Account which has an autonumber Primary key called accountID. Each of these accounts will have a questionnaire. So I created the questions in the same table (account). So Q1, Q2, Q3 etc. which are Questions relating to each AccountID, one accountID can have one questionnaire.
What is working fine is I can enter an account NUMBER which is a field in my account table (which creates a new AccountID(autonumber)) and can happily check the checkbox, fill out the text fields move to the next record and the checkbox is unticked and text boxes are blank (default state) which is great as I want them to ready for new input (new accountnumber/id).
My problem is assume I create my very first account number which would be say AccountID(0), I want all textboxes for the three questions disabled until the checkbox is ticked. So thats ok, I can put the default value of chkbox to FALSE, and in VBA I can do the on_checkbox_click, if chkbox.value = true then textbox1.enabled = true else textbox1.enabled = false. I can do that for the other two textboxes in the Chkbox click event.
When I Tick the checkbox it enables the textboxes, which is good, but when I create/move to the next record, instead of these textboxes being disabled as default, they are enabled because i ticked the chkbox for the first record. I dont want the manipulation of one AccountsIDs questionnaire to affects the other records. If I add an unbound textbox which I want to display a message if the chkbox is ticked, then if I tick it on one record, it has the displayed message on all records. How can this be if each questionnaire is independently i.e each questionnaire is for ONE accountID.
It seems the textboxes etc are not unique to each accountID but they should be because they are in the Account table and when I enter values and use the checkboxes without doing the disabling or showing a textbox comment, they are separate and work great, but when I use my code to manipulate the flow of a questionnaire for each account i.e enabling textbox/showing textbox comment, it changes the formatting on the other records questionnaire which I don't want as each questionnaire will be different, so a chkbox may enable a question on one ID but not on another as it wont be relevant, so at the moment I only have ONE truly working questionnaire which works for ONE account , but I want it to work uniquely for each account.

Hello,
I have a form and a subform in MS Access 2003. I have made some changes to database structure, so I decided to change the subform also. When I changed the Link child and link master fields, the controls of the subdatasheet dissapear- they show only in design view. If I clear the contents of Link child and link master fields they appear again, but the records are not binded.
Is there a setting on the parent form that also has to be changed, to make the new binding?
Thanks,
Aleksander

In my simple database (attached), I need to mass duplicate Tasks and their Notes.
I have three tables: tbTasks (PK: Task_ID), tbNotes (PK: Note_ID), jtbTaskNotes (FKs: Task_ID and Note_ID). jtbTaskNotes is my many-to-many junction table that ties Tasks to Notes.
The main form (fmTasks), bound to tbTasks, has a subform (sbfm_TaskNotes) that displays notes associated with each Task. On themain form,you select which Tasks you want duplicated via a checkbox. The append query (quCopyTasks) will duplicate all tasks that have the checkbox checked. All good there. However, I can't figure out how to also duplicate each task's Notes.
I found Allen Browne's solution [URL] ....., but that only handles duplication of one record at a time, whereas I need to duplicate many records at a time (sometimes 10+ records). How do I go about duplicating multiple Tasks and their associated Notes?
Before you ask "why are you duplicating records?": There are times when tasks need to be re-accomplished and therefore need to have a new record. It's easier to duplicate records than it is to hand-jam everything again.

I need a form to set up records
The table is something like
AutoID, Sequence , Low, High
Data would be
1, 1, 1 499
2,2,500,999
3,3,1000,9999
4,4,10000,999999
etc
Ho do I go about ensuring my sequences are correct
ie I wouldn't be able to add a record - 5,5,100,200
or if a user was to delete a record the user would be informed the sequences were out?
Thanks for any assistance.

Shall be grateful for clarifications for these two :
1. I have two fields - TheYear (set to take the current year) and another for sequential numbering. In fact I created this to replace the autonumber field. As suggested by a member I created a Generate button with the criteria as under
Private Sub Generate_Click()
If IsNull(Me![NumFld]) Then
Me![NumFld] = Format(Nz(DMax("[NumFld]", "[DiaryTable]", "[TheYear]='" & Year(Date) & "'"), 0) + 1, "00000")
End If
Me![NumFld] = Format([NumFld], "00000")
End Sub
It works fine. and when the year is changed, the numbering starts from 1 again. My question is how do I make it to auto generate the number so that the user doesnt have to click the Generate button everytime to get the number. Suggestions please.
2. Is it possible to change this sequential numbering midway i.e. to start from a different number and increment by one?
Grateful for help

Hi, Newbie Question,
what can I include in my code to prevent a user from entering a date into a textbox (via code via combo boxes)
that is an earlier date than the last or latest date field record entry. The two questions I s'pose I'm asking are how do I reference that
last or latest Record (which maybe the user just inputted via the form) & how do I approach the code. The user will be inputting data
for his club members for a monthly sporting event & I'm trying to prevent him accidentally entering an earlier date than the last meet.

Hello, I am very new to access and I am trying to create a simple sytem to help us create part numbers. We are using a 2 digit descriptor to help define the part some. Then we want to add a sequential 7 digit number on to that.
Example:
01 (is electrical)
02 (Shop supplies)
etc....
So...
01-0000001 would be a part number for an electrical part.
I do not understand how to have access add the zeros to the front. I would also like to be able to jump a bit out of line to reserve part numbers for certain projects and also include some that we already have.
If this make any sense to anyone, any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
james
