I'm trying to create a form for entering data for new items for a warehouse inventory. So far, I've figured everything out, but now I'm stuck.
I want to create an option group for two separate snippets of information: Whether a product is damaged or not, and whether a product is in numerical order or not.
I have created two bound option groups with option buttons, one for "Damaged?" (Yes or no) and one for "Sequential?" (Yes or no).
When I open the form, however, only the "Damaged?" buttons work. I can click either one, and it changes from yes to no and vice versa. However, the "Sequential?" options do not work. It doesn't matter which option group I try to click first, I cannot select "Yes" or "No" under "Sequential.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!
There is a field in the query called "FinalisedDate" which is a date/time field. I want a button called Current that when pressed it shows all records where the FinalisedDate field is Null which is to be the default of when the form is open.. Another button called "Aged" is pressed it only shows records that have the FinalisedDate field has a value (i.e. not null). I want another button that shows All Records (i.e Current and Aged).
I hope anyone can help. I have searched the forums but did not find a similar problem that I can copy.
This is a multi-faceted question may the answer to the first may help the second. I have two option groups each with two options in each. The first is called Frame 57 and has two options A ( the wizard assigned a value of 1) and B (assigned a value of two). The second is called frame 58 and has two options C ( the wizard assigned a value of 1) and D (assigned a value of 2). I have set enable on Frame 58 to No.
My aim: If I choose A in Frame 57 then I want Frame 58 (with both options) to become enabled. If I choose B in Frame 57 then I want Frame 58 to remain un-enabled.
When writing the code do I Put it in the Click event of the FRAME? and should i refer to the option groups by their name (ie: A or B) or by their assigned value (1 or 2).
This is what I have at the moment Private Sub Frame57_Click() If Frame.57 = 1 Then Frame58.Enabled = True Else Frame58.Enabled = False End If End Sub
This seems to work though when I return close and re-open the form Frame 58 (even if it was chosen and enabled) is now not enabled even though the option is Frame 57 is correct and visible.
Been searching for an answer to this one but still cant quite get it.
I am using an option group to subtract and add percentages on an amount in a text box. This is the code i am using but there is something wrong. My syntax is out.
In the file MembershipV3A2K.zip that was posted at the link listed below...I found a form that had a feature I would like to use or create on my own. I'm not sure what to call this feature. But it looks as if the form has two option groups and a listing of all committee members. In one of the option groups you selected which report you wanted. The second group you selected your output method for the report. The form in the database posted is labeled as frmPreReport but I was not able to get this form to work, so I think various components are either disabled or removed???
I'm not familiar with visual basic and want to know if there is a way to create this feature without visual basic knowledge? If so, would anyone be able to point me in the right direction? If visual basic knowledge is required, what would be a good source for this information?
I have a form with 6 option groups, each with 2 option boxes (-1 & 0). They are triple-states and start off in null mode with a validation rule of "Not Null". The idea is to ensure the user has decided something for each option group before being allowed to save the record.
The problem is that each time I load the form, the first box I select, all the others then default to the same option (no longer null).
Sorry if this is an easy one and I just missing it, but I have a form in an Access2003 database with option groups for ratings for 18 individual tasks ie: Safety: 1. Satisfactory 2. Marginal 3. Unsatisfactory 4. N/A The value stored in the table is 1,2,3, or 4 for each one, obviously. How can I change the stored value in the table to "Sat" "Marginal" "Unsat" etc? Or, if easier, make the report convert the numerical values to names?
I have 26 different option groups all with numeric values set for YES , NO, and N/A.
I attempted code to have the code read if the frame values were 1 Or 3 for all frames then a text field would read as "Pass" or it would be "Fail" but its not working. How to link all the options groups so that if YES or N/A have been selected then it will generate a PASS but if any of them selected NO it will be a FAIL.
How to create a Web Form and include an option group (5 or 6 radio or check boxes)? I really need the page to layout all of the options (not in a drop down). This will allow users compare answers on the fly looking at the form.
I have a report with 2 option groups, I cannot get both of them to filter the data simataneously, they will each inititally filter the data, but when the opposite group it clicked, the previous filter data does not remain filtered. I have posted the code for the two option groups, I know I'm doing something wrong.
First option group code: Private Sub Frame43_Click() Select Case Me.Frame43.VALUE Case 1 Me.Filter = "allowable_weight Like '263000'" Me.FilterOn = True
Is there any way to control the "show" criteria in a query from option groups... i.e... a check box for someone to say if they want to view items in the query or not? (But not to affect the actualy query data in any way).
I've created a form using the form wizard and all of the fields show up as combo boxes. I would like to change a couple of them to option groups with radio buttons. Is there anyway to do this without deleting the fields and making the option boxes from scratch? The reason I ask is because when I do the option boxes from scratch with the wizard, it alters the way the information shows up in the datasheet (it's a split form).
I am using an Access database for a foreign language dictionary project.
One of the forms I use is populated by a query (qryLemmaTable) to retrieve information from tblLEMMA.
This form works precisely as I intend it to work, but there is a glitch on it that is driving me mad.
The form in question has an option group with 11 radio buttons that correspond to the parts of speech associated with each word in tblLEMMA.
When I click on the button optAdjective I apply a filter and the only records that are displayed are adjectives. (The same applies for Nouns, Verbs, Prepositions etc.)
Here is the glitch: even though the radio buttons apply the filter correctly, no “black spot” appears in the button. Other signals on the screen let me know what word type is selected, so I can accomplish what I want, but I want the “black spots” too!
Perhaps this will be a clue: For each radio button I use the following code in the GotFocus event. Me.FilterOn = False Me.Filter = "wordtype = 'A'" ‘(or N, etc) Me.FilterOn = True
And this for the Lost Focus event Me.FilterOn = False
We are creating a simple database to maintain driver license information for faculty, staff, and students who use cars from the university’s motor pool.
To do this, I have created two tables: tblDRIVER and tblLICENSE.
The fields in tblDRIVER are: pkfDriverIndex strLastName strFirstName strInitial strAddress1 strAddress2 strCity strState strZIP datBirthDate
The fields in tblLICENSE are: pkfUpdateIndex fkfDriverIndex datDateUpdated strState strLicNumber datExpirationDate ynViolations ynActive
Information about the driver is stored in tblDRIVER and the driver’s license information is stored in tblLICENSE. Periodically, we run a report that identifies drivers whose licenses are due to expire within a certain number of days. All this works fine.
My problem is that I am trying to create a lookup form that will load from a data entry form that will permit the Motor Pool Clerk to look up a driver by name and review the licensing information (which appears as a subform).
All this sort of works- I am using a combo box (based on a query) to look up a driver’s last name (which it does) and to populate all the driver’s information on the look-up form (including license information in a subform). Currently, the combo box locates the driver (including the unique index, last, and first names), and populates the form with first and last name but the rest of the information is not displayed on the look up form. Worse still, sometimes one driver’s last name matches up with the first name of the next driver listed in the table! This seems to happen only if a look up is attempted more than once. What gives.
I stumbled upon the Option Group function just yesterday and, happy as a clam, I created a group with 2 options in radio button style. I assigned the values to a field called Registration_Type as the 2 options are "Confirmed Registrants" and "Prospective Attendees".
[Great. That part works well. When I look at the table, a 1 or a 2 is in that field so it's great to know how to control accidental ticking of radio buttons (previous 450 records or so didn't have this option group functionality so one might easily tick one of the buttons. So one part of controlling option group I know I can handle via the table itself for now.]
The challenge is how to ensure the user always ticks one or the other ... I went back to the main table and tested the 'required entry' option for the Registration_Type field but forcing an action like this is not ideal in my mind. The usual error message vagueness for the average user is no good and I don't want to limit the user so much.
Is there a way to simply have a popup come up warning that neither radio button was ticked? Perhaps something linked to the form - i.e., maybe "after update"?? I only learned about attaching code to before and after update on controls a couple of days ago, so not sure if this would be best approach.
Just something to let the user know that nothing has been ticked in the option group as that controls in which of 2 reports the data will show up in so any record not ticked might mean a registrant being left out, which would be rather disastrous <g>.
I think I am missing sth here, after I set my new group then I create my new user, then what! How can I specify which user to login with? Will the user be promoted for a username and a password?
For a little light relief I thought I would delve into the joys of security groups and immersed in searches and reading material. From what I have learnt so far, yes FE / BE best approach and take time, as obviously easy to get wrong and difficult to undo.
Not looking for the answer, just a hint that I'm on the right track
The FE groups settings is where the bulk of the detailed work is required? The BE groups settings are to ensure the correct read / write access to the tables? I am thinking of making FE groups as BE users (smart or dumb) to simplify this end?
I have a dataset with an age field which just stored an age. I want to run a query which will calculate the frequency based on all age groups 20-30,30-40.
I have created a work order application, and the process is that it takes total number ordered of an item, divides it by a factor, and then prints x number of work orders, example qty ordered 300 = 5 work orders, 4@72 and 1@12, my question is, now I want to appended the work order number with a count number, example wo555-1, wo555-2 and so on, grouping on the work order number, so each work order start again at 1. I am stumped, can anyone help.
This is the tables in my database, it is a database of the upcoming Beijing Olympics. I am aiming to have a medal count for each country which is in the current database. As it has the capabilities to expand therefore I am trying to avoid the need to create a whole new query for each country I add, also it would be preferable to be able to have all of the countries on the same report, so that I can compare the totals. Is there some way I can count the total of each group of records (each country) for the field where 'MedalType' = "Gold", "Silver" and "Bronze". Also the calculation needs to be done before the report so that I can order by the total. I am new to this so can answers be preferably in layman's terms.
I need to randomise participants in an Access 2000 db into four groups. Let's say these are 1, 2, 3 and 4. This in itself is not the problem. The problem is that I need to keep the numbers of participants in each group approximately equal, say to within a tolerance of 4.
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
