Hi,
I am trying to take text from two different text boxes on a form and place into another text box on the form. I want it to also update the table with this new text.
Example: fname, lname, fullname are text boxes on a form. when user enters fname and lname, I want the two strings/text to be added together and placed in fullname while also updating the table with the fullname text.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

I have a form that contains a combo box (cboEmployeeName) that pulls data from a query and populates three text boxes (Work Area, Last Name, First Name), This part works fine. Because the text boxes are being populated by the Combo box, they are not bound to the record source tblTrainingSchedule). I need the info that is in the text boxes to populate the respective fields in the record source.
I tested by adding "=tblTrainingSchedule!WorkArea=[cboEmployeeName].Column(3)" (column 3 is the work area) to the "after update" control but it does not populate the data.
Hi all,
I've looked through the previous posts here but can't find what I'm looking for (probably because I can't think of how to phrase it). Basically I've got a text box that allows for entry of the item cost, then a text box called Quantity and another text box that calculates the total cost based on the quantity. Fairly straightforward and works, well sort off anyway.
Basically the text box does not update as soon as the quantity amount has changed. You seem to have to either go out of the form or click on another field.
Any ideas? It's probably simple but it's been driving me nuts now for ages. Any help would be grately appreciated as always.
Cheers
I have similar text boxes on two different forms. On the first form when I add a value and click the add button it automatically submits that value to the second form. However, on the second form when I select a value and click add, it deletes the previous value given by the first form. I have written code that allows the user to input more than one value on the second form, which works fine.(The previous values do not get deleted) I want to write some code that allows the user to submit a value on the first form, and that value remains on the second form's text box even when the user adds more values on the second form. Also the values are inputted to a table.
One previous suggestions was to put field2=field1 & field 2. However this does not work.
Any suggestions would be a of great help. I am pretty new at Microsoft Access. Thanks for the help
I have a form where I type in the time a person starts a job. The format is Medium Time. I also have a box where I type in the End time for that job. Also formatted in Medium Time. I have another box that is for if a break happens during that job to return the value 10. My formula for that box is: =IIf([Start Time]<"9:00 AM" And [End Time]>"9:10 AM",10,0). The problem that I am having is that it only works when the time is in the 9:00 AM to 9:59 AM time frame. I need it to work where if a person starts at 6:00 AM and gets done at 2:30 PM to return the value of 10.

Hi,
I have two tables, tblCountry and tblLocation. With the following structure
tblCountry
ID
Name
Text
tblLocation
ID
Country_fk
Name
Text
As you can guess tblCountry lists all of the countries, tblLocation lists all of the locations in each country, the tblLocation.Country_fk field is linked to tblCountry.ID.
I want the user to be able to edit [tblLocation].[Text] using a form. They simply select the country and then the location using combo-boxes and then add or edit the content using a textbox.
In my form I have a combo-box that displays the country names, the RowSource is set to
SELECT [tblCountry].[ID], [tblCountry].[Name], FROM tblCountry ORDER BY [Name];
I then have a second combo-box that lists the locations for the selected country. This uses an AfterUpdate() procedure to select [tblLocation].[ID] using an SQL query based on the value of the country combo-box. I.e:
SELECT [tblLocation].[ID],[tblLocation].[Name],[tblLocation].[Text] FROM tblLocation WHERE [Country_fk] = " & Me.country_box.Value & " Order By [Name]"
I want to be able to have a textbox that then displays [tblLocation].[Text] for the selected location. Thats where the problem arises. I can't find a way that will let me display any content thats available for the selected location AND let me edit it. I've tried using UpdateAfter procedures, different bindings (tables, queries based on the value of location combo-box).
Can anyone suggest how I can display [tblLocation].[Text] based on the value of the selected country/location and be able to update the information via a textbox?
Any help would be appreciated!!!
Thanks

This is my first post, but I've been lurking for sometime. I'm grateful for all the great advice given here; despite my efforts, I can't find anything directly related to what I'm doing, though.
I have a form that is populated from a query. The query has some calculated fields and some direct selection fields from a couple of tables. One of the direcly selected fields is one that I'm trying to populate from the items in a list box.
On this form, there are two list boxes, List1 and List2. The user makes selections in List1 and clicks a command button, which runs code so that the second list box is populated with the items from List1. This was shown here:
MS Article (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnofftalk/html/office03022000.asp)
I actually just used this code and made changes accordingly so that this feature is working perfectly. However, the items in List2 need to be updated into a table's field, and this is where I'm having the problem.
I've got List2 bound to the proper field in the query, and I can manually run that query and make changes in that field fine. What I can't figure out is why I can't get the ItemsData property of the List2 control in there. For ease of code, I've added a line that copies the List2 rowsource variable to another variable so that the values can be used elsewhere. I can't seem to get the field to receive the variable in VBA, and I can't figure out how to get the values back into the query so that the query's source table is updated.
Any clues? Or is this unclear? I'm happy to give any further information. I've been working on this for more than a week, trying different things, and I'm at wits' end.
my problem seems to be very familiar to the one in this thread :

Basically I have a list of tables in one combo box. I want the user to select which table. ( The tables are stock information, each table for each different day of the stockmarket)
Then they select the Stock they want to look at. ( These are the same in all the tables obviously, so it is the same in the drop down box)
NOW, the bit i'm struggling with. Is for a textbox below to show the value found IN the table name selected, with the stock selected. How would i do this in SQL, or VBA with SQL.

I have around 30 text box on a form and trying to insert the value of those 30 text boxes in a table from vba.

Can we use a variable in referring a field in insert query?
I am using variable because I am not able to write the whole code in a single line and when i am pressing enter it gives me a error.
Table name: Items
Field: ItemName
Form name: Frmpayments
when I open the above form, it should create texts boxes on "frmpayments" based on how many data available in "Items" table under "Itemname" field. It'll be even better, if it can put those item's name in each text box it creates.
I have a form with 1 unbound listbox as drop down list (entypolst), an unbound text box(entypotxt) and a command button. The list box reads items from a table. I want to change a value (text) on listbox, input a text on textbox so pressing the button add a new record in a table (Table1 fields Category,Product) showing in my form as subform (SFTable1) in datasheet view. For that reason a made the following code:
Code:
Private Sub AddBtn_Click()
Dim ans As Integer
Dim strSQL As String
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim ctl As Control
[code]....
I take the error msg for 0 items selected in listbox and exit the sub.
how can i to save the values entered into unbound text boxes to fields in table

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have strange issue when creating auto populated text boxes which displays rows from combo boxes.
In one database auto populates works with simple text box Control Source edit "=[ComboName].[Column](NumberOfColumn)".
Somehow same method doesn't wotk in different database: here one time I have to insert VBA code at On change Event:
Me.TextBoxName = Me.ComboName.Column(NumberOfColumn)
And other time it wont work with On change but only with After Update Event (code is same).
Another thing this morning happens was that when I tried to add new record trough form where combo box and tex boxes are located, MS Office suddenly stopped working after selecting combo box selection (with message Microsoft Office has Stopped Working). It is 2013 version.
I got it work after deleting and re-inserting VBA code to autopopulate text box at After Update Event.

there is a way to convert multiple text boxes to combo boxes all at once, rather than right clicking on them one at a time, and selecting Change to.
I have a form with about 50 fields and most of them need to be converted to combo boxes. I'd always done it manually one at a time up to this point, but I'm trying to build up my learning and look for smarter ways to do things.
I have a form with a List Box (List BoxA) that returns a value from a query. I then have a Text Box (Text BoxB) that uses the value from List BoxB and multiplies it by let's say 2. It works giving me the correct value but only becomes visible after I click inside List BoxA. How can I make it visible as soon as the form is opened? I tried refreshing the form data, didn't work and I tried a requery macro which didn't work either.
Thanks,

By the way, how can I attach an attachment in this forum. This if first time for me in this forum.
I am working on a database for a bowling tournament. I'm currently working on a form where the user selects from a combo box bowlers' names for doubles pairings. I thought that as a helpful tool I would also display a list of available remaining bowlers once the combo box information has changed.
I'm trying to write a module for the combobox_change trigger. What I'm having trouble doing is pulling the updated recordset from the base form and using that to update the availability box -- in other words, how can you query data from the recordset underlying an open form before the form is closed and the data is saved to the tables. The only way I can do this now is to temporarily close the form, manipulate a recordset from the table, then re-open the form. There's got to be a better way. Maybe I'm just missing something here.
Thanks in advance for any help.
I have two tables and their associated forms. Agent Firm and Agent Person. I have created a one (Agent Firm) to many (Agent Person) relationship because a Firm can have many Persons (not vice versa).
I have also created a combo box autofill so that some of the information from the Agent Firm can be posted on the Agent Person.
Query one: I tried using text for the AutoFirm ID because each firm's name is unique. However, when I tried to see what happened if the firm changed its name, still having a unique value, I was not allowed to. Why? and can I over-rule this? For the time being I have used an autonumber as an ID, but I feel that is inefficient.
Query two: I have set up a combo-box, which works, using the following:
Private Sub cboAgentFirmID_Change()
Me.txtAddress1.Value = Me.cboAgentFirmID.Column(2)
Me.txtAddress2.Value = Me.cboAgentFirmID.Column(3)
Me.txtAddress3.Value = Me.cboAgentFirmID.Column(4)
Me.txtTown.Value = Me.cboAgentFirmID.Column(5)
Me.txtPostcode.Value = Me.cboAgentFirmID.Column(6)
End Sub
I originally had a first line Me.txtAgentFirm.Value = Me.cboAgentFirmID.Column(1) but deleted it because the AgentFirm is being entered in the AgentFirmID box (why??)
AgentFirmID, which is the autonumber primary key (see query 1) in Agent Firm is the link between the two tables in the relationship.
Query three: A major feature should be that if an AgentFirm changes its name, or address, phone number, etc this is reflected immediately across all related entries. And it does not happen: each one has be updated manually.
(Imagine if a bank changed its name and had to alter each account manually!) How do I make it work as I am sure it is meant to?
Hi guys, I have a related databes with about 20 tables.
My main table stores the data linking with most of the other tables. This main table stores football match records with player line ups. Initially I had a problem linking the 11 player fields in the main table to the player table, Icould only do it with 1, so someone at work suggested to link it using the lookup function. This worked brilliantly. However, now I am designing a GUI with forms but the forms have combo boxes where the lookup function was used and when i change these to text boxes, the players names are replaced with their ID numbers.
Is there any way of creating the form without the unsightly combo boxes, as they won't be needed, the GUI will be read-only. I look forward to your help!!
I have a form with a check box among other itmes. What I want to happen is, when the user checks the check box, I want the text box to the right of it to be made visible and to let the user write text.

The check box is if the user wish to put a comment in the form, he will click the check box and then I want my text box to appear so that he may write the comment in the text box. Please help with this. Thanks
