I have a control on my main form which attempts to total the amount from all subrecords on that record. For example, I have fields called ValueA and ValueB in the subform. If I have 5 subrecords in a record, then I want the control to sum all 10 fields (5 for ValueA +5 for ValueB). How can I do this?
View RepliesOK. 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:
On a main form i have a continuous subform listing Jobs.
On the Click Event i want to display the personnel and equipment separately in two additional subforms linked to the Job i have clicked on by JobID.
I have tried all sorts of references and currently have this:-
Forms!PersonnelAndEquipmentMovementFrm.PerEquipMov Jobs.JobID = Form!EmployeeSubform.JobID.Text
Which does not work?
Hi,
I have hit a brick wall with my A-Level Access Project. Basically, I have a form for ordering where a user can select items from a combo box linked to a table that contains products. They then select the quantity and a subtotal is calculated for that particular item(s). By that I mean the subtotal generated is only for one selection from the combo box. Any subsequent selections have their own subtotals generated afterwards (I hope I'm not being too vague).
This is the form I am talking about:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v318/GOAT2G/FrmMakeOrder1.jpg
The thing I am having trouble with is the final box; "Order Total". I have no idea how to set it to sum all of the above Subtotals to equal an overall total. I will send anyone willing to help a copy of the database via email or something if they need it.
I would be immensely grateful for any help you can give.
Thanks,
Adam
Hi, I have been looking for some answear, but haven't find the proper one!!
I have a form containing a number of records showing the hours worked in format HH.MM at the end of the form I have the sum of the hours, but the result is not correct.
To make it simple to understand, actualy the total of hous for 11.55 and 11.14 gives me the result of 22.69 but the correct result should be 23.09 (23h and 09m and not 22h and 59m)
How can I get the right total???

Good morning everyone,
I am trying to have access total a number of invoices for one project to show the total amount invoiced for that project. I would like to have this number displayed in a form so as I enter dollar amounts, the number goes up automatically.
Sorry if this is a noob question but I am in fact a noob.
Thanks in advance
Hi. I have a simple access table that contains details of our customers, and what products they have bought from us. Each row represents a product bought, and contains the customer details & the value of that product.
What I wish to do is create a report that lists these purchases, grouped by the client. That much I can do. However I also wish to sort the report by the total spend of the customer.
What I think I need to do is create a query that totals the "income" column for each customer, and then sort the report on that new figure.
All I cant work out, is how ?. Could someone please let me know how best to do this - small words please - my ambition exceeds my ability !.
Thanks all.
Greetings,
I am working with a database where I query a table and get a set of data. it is a phone log database and I am trying to find the total number of calls that a certain ext. makes during a certain time. I have it now where it will give me a complete list of the calls made for the dates and the times, but it gives one for each call, I am just looking for a total for each ext not the detailed that it is giving me. any help would be much appreciated thank you
Ok, I have a problem. I have two tables with different data pulled from two different areas, but that have the same type of information in them. I need them merged into one query or table so it can be exported into excel.
The problem is that one table has data only once (has a primary key, then things by building and grade). The other table has it's primary key, but then could have more then one building and grade combination (i.e. building 1050 grade 8 membership of 10 more then once becuase off another factor).
I need to merge this stuff by query of some kind into another query or table that totals all things with the same primary key, building and grade. So there is only one line for xxx-xxx building 1050 grade 8 with the grand total of membership for all.
How do I do that?
I am making a simple tabular form to use as a subform in another.
The form has a cbo box (cboItem_Name)
Quantity (txtQuantity)
Price (txtItem_Cost)
Extended Price (txtExtended_Price)
Selecting an item in the combo puts the price in txtItem_Cost. Default for Quantity is 1. Control Source for txtExtended_Price = [txtQuantity]*[txtItem_Cost] and gives me my extended price.
I have a control in the footer of the form called txtSub_Total. It's Control Source =SUM([txtExtended_Price]).
This Sub Total box generates the #error.
Can anyone tell me why? Do I need to do some other magic with my txtExtended_Price control instead of a simple calculation, like I have?
Thanks for any help you can give a novice.
i have a query that uses data from a series of tables, the trouble i have is that if one of the tables is null i don't get any data returned.
current query:

[Mktbl_UnacDTime]![Total]
but no value in:-

Hi guys, I am trying to create a query collecting data from 4 tables as well
as calculating totals delivered but it's hurting my head trying to work out
all the joins can anyone help please?
The 4 tables are as follows:
Orders
=====
OrderNumber
CustomerName
CustomersRef
OrderDetails
=========
Order_Items_ID
OrderNumber
ItemNumber
Qty
ItemType
Description
Deliveries
=======
DeliveryNoteID
OrderNumber
Date
DeliveryDetails
==========
DeliveryDetailID
DeliveryNoteID
ItemNumber
QtyDelivered
The relationships are pretty straight forward, OrderNumber on Orders and
OrderDetails are linked as are DeliveryNoteID on Deliveries and Delivery
Details.
I want the query to list every single item for all orders as well calculating
how the quantity remaining to be delivered based on deliveries so far and Qty ordered.
So I want to create a report that pretty much just displays:
Orders.OrderNumber - Orders.CustomerName - Orders.Customer_Ref -
OrdersDetails.ItemNumber - OrdersDetails.Qty - OrdersDetails.ItemType -
OrdersDetails.ItemDescription - Deliveries.DeliveryNoteID - Deliveries.Date -
DeliveryDetails.TotalQuantityDelivered
Can this be done as one query or do I need to join two queries together?
It's hurting my head :(
How do I calculate a filtered total from a field in a subform. It needs to be filtered according to [agreementID] and I would like to total the records in another field.
[agreementID] [assessment]
01-pmg18 $20,000
01-pmg18 $15,000
02-pmg18 $13,000
02-pmg18 $21,000
eg: I would like the total assessment for all 01-pmg18's and the total for all 02-pmg18 etc. Can I automate this so it recognizes and totals all assessments according to each unique agreement id group. Customers can have many 'batches" of agreementID's belonging to him. The 18 also refers to his ID number it is typed in. Thanking you in advance!
Hi there.
I am trying to create a query to show the sum of monies received. However, where there is no money received instead of showing the value as £0.00 it comes up blank.
How do I get it to show it as £0.00 when run?

I am having trouble figuring out the method to automatically update some fields in SubForm from 2 other SubForms.I have attached 2 pics, the first GradeEntry1 shows what the tblTopic_Class_Grade form looks like after I manually enter everything into it. GradeEntry2 is what the form looks like when I fill out the Form starting at the top.
I'd like the tblTopics_Class_Grade form auto-populate the TrainingClassID (it currently does this), TopicClassID, StudentID, TrainingTopicID based off the entry from the above forms.My end goal is that I need to have a grade for each student on each training topic for each class. Like:
Class1-Student1-Topic1-GradeX
Class1-Student1-Topic2-GradeX
Class1-Student2-Topic1-GradeX
Class1-Student2-Topic1-GradeX
I had a form with two tabs and then added a subform into a third tab. Until I added the subform I could see the tabs at the top in both the design view and the form view. However, since adding the subform, althougth the form looks OK in the design view, when I switch to the form view the tabs are missing. The only way that I am able to get to them is to tab through all my fields until it eventually seems to shift the page up and I can see them. If I switch to another tab and this stage I then have to go throught the same proccess of going through each of the fields until I can see the tabs again.
Hope this makes sense and someone can help!

How do you tab out of one subform and into another from the main form. I have 3 subforms and after a user is finished entering data into the main form the first subform sets focus. After data is entered into the subform it’s impossible to hit the “enter” or “tab” key to move onto the next subform.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two forms, ctrlpanel and users. ctrlpanel is acting as the main form and users as the subform. In a module, I have the following code inside a function that is called on in the users subform:
Code: With Forms![ctrlpanel]![users].Form!cmbSection .RowSource = strList .RowSourceType = "Value List" End With
Can't seem to figure out why I get this error. Have tried a couple different ways of doing this with the same result. here is the error:
"Microsoft Access cannot find the field 'users' referred to in your expression."
users isn't a field, it's the subform and the syntax above is how many sites show how to refer to the subform.

How can I get some mainform fields' data to be the first entry in a subform? From the mainform, I would like the Head of Household name and date of birth to be carried over to the first entry in the HouseholdMembers subform.
The two forms are tied to separate tables. For each household member I need to be able to enter full legal name, date of birth and some additional pieces of information such as income and source of income.
What I'd like to avoid is making the users enter the Head of Household's name and date of birth twice. Is there a way to carry that information over to the subform?
Thank you, Charlotte
Hey Everyone,
I am stuck trying to figure out this problem. I have a main form "frm_tirelog_600" which has 4 combo boxes "cboleg",
"cbocar", "cbopos", "cboserial" on it. The first 3 combo boxes are used as criteria on 1 of 3 subforms that I have.
The fourth combo box "cboserial" is used for the criteria in a query on another subform that I have called "frm_mount_600_subform",
which is independant from the main form, I hope I have explained that clearly enough. What I need to be able to do is
have the subform fill in 3 of the fields on it "leg", "car", "pos" with the value from the 3 combo boxes on my main form. I
can get it to show in the fields but not write to the table. I have searched the forum and have not been able to locate anything
that would work and really need any assistance with this. Im not real strong in the coding department which is where I
beleive this could be done.
I have attached a copy of my DB which I hope will better explain it. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I have a subform on my main order form. I would like to click a button on my main order form and have it change a control on the subform. For instance, I have 2 controls on my subform, control 1 is a text field, and control 2 is a yes/no box.
When i click the button on my main for order form, I would like it to evaluate control 1 on my subform so that it can adjust control 2.
I would like to see if control 1 is null then set control 2 to yes or true. Thank you in advance for all your help.

This is probably simple, but I can't figure it out.
I have a table called Household that has a one-to-many relationship with a table called Individuals. The Individuals table has fields called FirstName and LastName. I have a main form based on Household. I want to have subforms in a Tab control based on the Individuals table. So when you click Page 1, it shows the data for the first person in the household, and when you click Page 2, it shows the data for the second person in the household. This would work by basing the subform on Page 1 on a query that finds the Min of FirstName, and basing the subform on Page 2 on a query that finds that Max of FirstName. However, the data in the subforms would not be updateable, because queries based on aggregate functions are not updateable.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can accomplish what I'd like to do?
I've use a set up that works fine on a form but doesn't when used in a subform. Basically, i have a check box and txt box that won't allow anything to be written in it unless the check box is checked. If it is checked and nothing is inputted in the text box, the lostfocus event for the txt box flags the user. It works fine in a normal form and when it's a subform, the lostfocus event does fire when going to another control in the subform. The problem is that it doesn't fire when going to another control not in the subform. Is there anyway I can get the lost focus event to fire under these circumstances?
Thanks,

Ok, I'm new here and I've searched through the forums and found similar questions asked but no one ever seems to have an answer. I've also looked on other forums and still no solution. So here goes...
I have a tab control with several tabs. On half of these tabs are subforms and the other tabs just have text boxes. When you click the any of the tabs, the entire tab control shifts to the bottom of the screen. The user would have to manually scroll up to continue inputting data.
I added a .gotopage method to the tab control and that fixed the problem in that when you click on a tabbed page, the page is positioned correctly on the screen. However, if I click on a tabbed page which contains a subform, I now get a VB error which says invalid page number argument.
If anyone has experienced this or knows a fix, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks! :confused:
I am in the process of upgrading a database, mostly by borrowing things I like from a similar database. I've borrowed a subform, along with it's underlying query and have modified my tables accordingly. All fields should match up.
Said subform is embedded on a page of a tab control. I've been modifying it regularly in design view, but when I switch over to form view, none of my controls show up. It just shows a blank yellow background.
This makes me very sad/frustrated. Please help!
