"The Command Or 'SaveRecord' Action Isn't Available Now"
Mar 7, 2006
Hi Folks,
No hits on a search of this site for this error. I think this is a security or corruption problem.
From the main dialogue form of my database some users get the "The command or 'SaveRecord' Action isn't available now." error when they try to run a report or perform an update. The report is launched by code which includes the SaveRecord command.
Everything operated correctly with the administrator logged in. The users have appropriate permissions to tables etc. However, I made some small modifications to the form and then the report / save would not run for the Administrator either.
Things I have tried to resolve this:
Giving users full permissions - same as adminstrator
Making new database and importing all items
removing security from back end
I also tried half a dozen other things of varying logic and relevance that didn't work either.
Anybody have any idea what is going on / how to procede?
I have created a search window that looks up certain invoicereport by invoice No. I have used this search method in other forms and has worked successfully!
However, after I created the same thing for a report, I get this message: The Command or Action 'ApplyFilterSort' isn't available now.
I really don't understand the problem. txtSearch = a textbox where user can type in any value to lookup a certain report. rptInvoice = where I want the search to be placed. fraSearch = an option group with (Starts with...,Contains...,Ends with..., Equals...) InvoiceNo = the txtField in rptInvoice.
this is what I wrote for the cmdSearch button:
Private Sub cmdSearch_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdSearch_Click Dim strFilter As String Dim strInvoiceno As String
' Check that the report is open If SysCmd(acSysCmdGetObjectState, acReport, "rptInvoice") <> acObjStateOpen Then MsgBox "You must open the report first." Exit Sub End If ' Build InvoiceNo criteria string If IsNull(Me.txtSearch.Value) Then strInvoiceno = "Like '*'" Else Select Case Me.fraSearch.Value Case 1 strInvoiceno = "Like '" & Me.txtSearch.Value & "*'" Case 2 strInvoiceno = "Like '*" & Me.txtSearch.Value & "*'" Case 3 strInvoiceno = "Like '*" & Me.txtSearch.Value & "'" Case 4 strInvoiceno = "= '" & Me.txtSearch.Value & "'" End Select End If
I have a form for users to be able to delete or edit records. I have 2 command buttons (Delete and Save), when I click on them I get this error "the command or action is not available now"... It was working fine before but for some reasons it stopped. Even two other buttons actioned by vba codes do not work (No message popping up for these 2)
I think it has to do with the query my form is based on, as I tried a dummy form based on a table and the button worked fine...? I tried re-creating query+form and no luck. I did remove a field from my query at some point this morning, not sure if this might be the cause of issue, as this field was not connected to anything in my form.
I am having trouble making a command button do what I want. I have a subform within my form, but I only want it to appear when I click the button. I tried using the wizard but there is no option to open subform, only open form. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
I am trying to do search on ID..but i get this error and i dont know how to proceed..
P.S My form displays all records(say 6000), it has a search functionality where a search on particular ID should be done, i am trying to do this and dont know whats happening even though this seems to be easy (
On Error GoTo Err_Command124_Click Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String stDocName = "PRINTSQUARE 1" DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, 3, , , , 4
An command button would open a form to display some query result, and how could I do something after user exit that form!! I have tried to put some action afater the Docmd and EXIT_COMMAND124_CLICK:, both didn't work!!
I've rebooted my copy record button and just used the macro wizard for now, it seems to work as far as I can tell but there is something strange about it.
I've added in some text boxes so I've got some confirmation, but when I click this copy button I get the following error;
"The command or action 'RecordsGoToNew' isn't available now."
I have a form with a 'Save' button. To keep certain users from editing the form, I've disabled the edit, add, and delete functions of the form based on the user's security level. When a user with a low security level opens the form, a message box pops-up that says "SaveRecord isn't available now....". It's good that the 'Save' isn't available since I don't want them to be able to change the record but I don't want the error message to come up. Is there a way I can stop this message from appearing? The form still opens after the user hit's 'OK' in the message box but I don't want them to have to do this.
I am rewriting an old Access 2003 database in Access 2010. When creating new command buttons, the current theme gives them a default appearance. I need to apply this appearance to old command buttons. I know there is a way to select the default button and apply its properties to others quickly. I have done it before but didn't write the process down .
I have set up a form to use for entering and specifying report criteria. I followed the instructions from general Access help. Everything worked fine in MS Access 2000. Now, I've transferred the database to a computer using MS Access 2003 and I get and error that says, "You entered an expression that has an invalid reference to the property Visible. The property may not exist or not apply to the object you specified." If I change the Macro for the "OK" button from Action="SetValue", Item="[Visible]", and Expression="No" to Action="SetValue", Item="[Forms]![frmParameterQuery].[Visible]", and Expression="False", which I though may be the correct way to enter this for the newer 2003 version of Access, then I get a different error message that reads, "You don't have the license required to use this ActiveX control. You tried to open a form containing an OLE Object or an ActiveX control or you tried to create an ActiveX control. To obtain the appropriate license, contact the company that provides the licensed OLE Object or ActiveX control" Please help!
i wonna count down for 20 minits and then autoclose my program. every time there is an activity the counter has to reset. any idea where and how to do it?
Migrated from access 2002 to 2007. the followhyperlink action is not picking up the complete data from a text box in a form. it leaves out the last digit/alphabet resulting in incorrect address.worked fine in 2002. any ideas?
i would like to log every action any member does on my database.i will have a log in screen(passworded) and i would like to record every button clicked. the only thing is i would like to include other things in the record aswell. like record changes. is there a neat little trick to do this or is it just going to be very labour intensive.
I have a form that has multiple text boxes. Was trying to add an Undo button that behaves exactly the same as the (Ctrl+Z) or the undo button used in microsoft access, word, excel ..etc. as it only undos one action in a click. When added the undo button i used just a normal button and added a code to it. if i type in different text boxes and press on the undo button it undos everything modified since the form was opened. Is there a way to change that ?
I am trying to open a form with a specified record using double clicked event (list box) but access is throwin "The OpenForm action was cancelled". My code is:
Private Sub lstSchool_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) Dim test As String Dim thisForm As String
What I need to do is get the name of a control when the mouse is over it. The problem is that I would need to make a custom macro/code for each control since there doesnt seem to be a way to retrieve the name of the control which initiated the mousemove action. Any ideas?
On my Form I have a Label (Recnote) which gets changed by the VB code if criterior is true. My form does change this correctly however, once I quit (or close the Form) and come back, the changes dissappear.
But the strange thing is that every now and then it does save it.
Any ideas??? Any other command I should use?
The following works as it disables my Import button and changes the Label contents but does not save when exited
Private Sub CloseME_Click() DoCmd.Requery
If [CountOfOracle Co] = 0 Then MsgBox "Cannot Close ME Yet", vbOKOnly, "Circular Rec" Else
Me.Recnote.BackColor = 65535 Me.Recnote.Caption = "Final Reconciliation" Me.Recnote.ForeColor = 32768 Me.Import.Enabled = False DoCmd.RepaintObject DoCmd.Save End If
I have an Access Form called Database_Form, with a text box called Text22, and a button called Command42.
I also have a table, and query, as following:
Table 1, as in the below example:
Row_Number as Column header, and values 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, as rows.
Column1 as Column header, and values 0026007101, 0026007102, 0026007103, 0026007104, 0026007105, as rows.
Query 2, which has the criteria [Forms]![Database_Form]![Text22] for Row_Number Field.
Basically, i want that each time when i press the button Command42 and having the text box filled with value 1 (for row number 1), to repeat this step, but taking the next row_number and so on, until it finishes the last row.
The Query 2, should sequentially select the row number given in the text box, based on a VBA Code or something.
I have a form and I do not want the mouse wheel to move through the records - it is a single form view and I do not want the use to use the wheel as it corrupts my calculations.
Is there any way to allow input of numbers input without the wheeldoing anything
I am trying to append records from sales table to sales archive table if salesdate# is <#01/05/2006 It works fine if the sales archive table is blank else it give me an error null conversion failure.
I like having the action query warning appear with what I am doing - "You are about to update xxx rows". The problem that I am having is that when my RunSQL statement in the code executes and selects no to the warning, I get the error -
Run-time Error '2501' The RunSQL action was canceled.
How can I trap the no selection so that this vba error does not appear?
I use the Access 2007 runtime to run my Access database on a few client machines. How do I turn off the confirmation of Action Queries? On clients that are also running MS Access, I can simply open Access, go to Access Options and uncheck the box. When I make this change in Access, the same settings apply for the Runtime on that computer. Which makes me think perhaps there is a registry entry I can modify someplace? If anyone has an idea as to how to turn this off for the runtime please let me know.
I have a form (TransactionBody) & a subform (Detail) in the body I have an option group (Reg Office, Unaccepted and Returned) and want the returned button to be true "IF" a box Yes/No box called "Returned" is checked "yes" in the "Detail" form. I have done simular things in regular forms but not with a subform. I know I need to setup a afterupdate event in the Detail subform in the "returned" yes/no box and I know the basic if..then...else lingo I just don't know how to reference the transactionbody form in the formula from the detail form.
