In Tools, Options Edit/Find I wish to uncheck the Confirm record changes, Confirm document deletions, and confirm action queries as these are automatically checked by default.
I did this when writing the database, but when users open it, these boxes are checked by default.
Is there any way to uncheck these by code on opening the database?
I created a form to select individual subcontractors from my database to print their info and it works wonderfully, however, when I close the form I would like the check boxes to return to the default of unchecked so that when I open the form again, there are no checked boxes. How do I do this? Thanks!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a search form (Form1) that sends the results to another form (Form2) using OpenArgs.
When Form2 opens with the filtered records, it may display 1 or more records (for example, the order number searched for in Form1, the customer may have bought 2 items)
So with my 2 records displayed in my continuous Form2, I have included a bound check box that can be checked by a sales team member of staff if we need to send a replacement item(s).
If the sales person has started the process and checked the box for both records but decides to close the form instead of reordering the goods for the customer (hometime) and decides to Close Form2.
How do I program Access to uncheck both boxes so the table is not updated with the check for each of the items, as this will start a chain reaction and the goods will get packed and shipped. It currently just unchecks the first record if I include Me.ItemSelectedResend = False in the Close form vba code.
I thought about just including a message box on the screen prompting the user to uncheck the boxes before closing, but surely there must be an automatic way in which I can do it.
My form contains a subform that displays the results of a search on the tblcontact. when a search or selection from a pair of combo boxes is selected the results appear with the checkboxs selected. I would like a button that unchecks the results and another the shows all records.
form - frmDynamicContact_Subform (record source tblContact)
subform - frmDynamicContactList (record source qryItemListYes of tblContact)
checkbox - "selected"
update query clears results not uncheck- UPDATE tblcontact SET tblcontact.selected = False;
I'm writing a simple form in VBA Access and I've added a check box, yet I can't get the darn thing to uncheck.... It checks just fine and does what its supposed to do, but when I click on it again it simply won't uncheck. What am I doing wrong here??? Thanks!
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a table "LightDuty" with a field [Email Sent] that is a YES/NO field.
I do not have a checkbox on the main form for the [Email Sent]; instead this field is checked (in the table) when the user sends an email to the receipient. I use the [Email Sent] field as a criteria for my query.
I need to uncheck the checkbox when the user changes the date in a field called [Drs Excuse Exp].
This is what I have tried (in the AfterUpdate event of the Drs Excuse Exp control):
Code:
Dim db as DAO.Database
Dim rs as DAO.Recordset
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("LightDuty")
[Code] .....
I get the runtime error 3265 "Item not found in collection"
I have a db with a form showing all customers with communication checkbox checked, I want a button which uncheckes all chackboxes.. all I have now is a button which uncheckes the first record.. anyone an idea?
:confused:
In a current form I want to display a checkbox that can be checked or unchecked. Based on if the box is checked or not, a value will be placed in a field when the record gets updated or created...
I have created a check box but when I click it, I am unable to uncheck it, Im pretty confident I can do the later part in coding it into the database... its just having the free ability to check it or not!
I have a parent form which has a yes/no checkbox in the form's record source. Then in that parent form I have a sub-form. If NO records exist in the sub-form I want the checkbox to be UN checked. If records DO exist in the sub-form, I want the checkbox to be CHECKED.
But I want this to happen as records are added or deleted from the sub-form. In other words, if the parent form is opened and no records exist in the subform then the checkbox should be unchecked. But as soon as the first record has been entered in the subform, the checkbox on the parent form should be checked. Likewise, as soon as the last record has been revoved from the sub-form, the checkbox on the parent form should be unchecked.
What code do I need to accomplish all of this?
I 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.
I currently have 3 tables within a database with student details of three different classes. I need to create a user form that has a dropdown box which I can select a student from one of these tables with a number of text boxes below which brings up all the students details, then once the student has been selected and the correct details are shown then I need to create a button which allows me to move that student from one table to another.

Attached I have a database that I've been working on which has a form called "frmCriteriaSearch". It is based off of the qryCriteriaListBoxUpdate query. I am trying to get the listbox in the second tab of the results section to work. It queries fine for the checkboxes, but I cannot get the comboboxes to affect the query (unless a checkbox has already been selected)
View 6 Replies View Relatedthere 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 am trying to make a search option in my form header. Right now I have two unbound combo boxes (CboAccountsfilter and cboCourseName) that I can use to filter my records. Currently, I can use the drop down for CboAccountsfilter and a list of accounts will appear. When I select one, the corresponding Course Names will appear in cboCourseName. This works fine...Code below. I would like to take the filtering a step farther and add checkboxes to filter the data. I my form, there currently exist several check boxes (yes/no)...(Priority, Rep Top Target, Manager Top Target, ect). I would like to have the option to use a check box to filter. I.E if I had a checkbox in my header called PriorityFilter, if checked it would only bring up those records that met the two combo boxes criteria and was a priority.
Below is the code I have so far...it doesnt have anything for the checkbox because I am at a lost of how to get started.
Private Sub CboAccountsfilter_Change()
Me.Requery
Me.cboCourseName.Requery
Me.Check178.Requery
End Sub

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,
Lester
Another quick request:
What would the code be for a button which clears the contents of a text box or a combo box on a form?
Many thanks,

Hi,
I added some new controls into existing form. I made sure I added those new control names to Table source as well. For some reason, I dont get the values either in the form or in table. Please help. Thanks.
By the way, how can I attach an attachment in this forum. This if first time for me in this forum.
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. But I only want this text box to be visible when the check box is checked. 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
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a table that has client names and addresses. I have designed a form to be able to invoice these clients and everything is fine however what I'd like to do is have the address of the client appear automatically.
I have set the client names in a combo box and would like their address to appear in either a text box or sunken label automatically from the table. Is this possible and how do I do it.
Please keep in mind that I've done basic programming so please be kind to this newbie :D
Hi everyone,
I have been making progress with customizing a
MS Access program, but one major problem is that
I have been trying to make a List Box or Combo Box
that I can use to enter data in the TABLE, but I
find that I get a pull-down list that has the list of
values from only the parameter that is primary key.
More specifically, the program is set up as follows:
I have two tables in this program: One that is called
"invoices" and one that is called "items". In both of
these tables, there is one common parameter, which
is "Item Number". Item number is the primary key,
and I used the "relationships" function to tie this
parameter to itself between the two tables.
I was successful in setting up a list-box for the
"Item Number", but when I try to set up a list-box
for another parameter that is supposed to display
a person's initials, the pull-down list displays the list
of item numbers instead of the list of people's initials.
In fact, I don't know if there is an extra step I need to
take so that the database stores a list of people's initials.
Instead, I just fill in the initials in the field for each
record for which the "Item Number" is the primary key.
How can I get the list-box to pull down a selection of
different people's initials, or in other words how can I get
all the people's initials to be stored so that the list of
initials can be looked up. Just so you know, I have tried
different choices of entries in the "Lookup" tab in the
Design mode of Tables, including Display Control,
Row Source Type, Row Source, and Bound Column,
but the outcome is that the only parameter that I
get get in the pull-down list is the primary key, which
is Item Number.
I appreciate any help you can offer in explaining how
to correct this.
On a separate note, one of the parameters is "Date", and
on the reports, I'm trying to figure out how to filter a
specific date range so that I can limit each report to a
specific month. Please advise me on this procedure as well.
Thanks.
Hi
I have a combo box and its row source is a query that selects distinct values from a column in a table
However i would also like the user to be able to select nothing/null value from the combo box. How do i do this.
Thanks
Hi
In my tables I have set a field to Yes/No and the format to be True/False.
When I activate the table it shows the field as a checkbox, however when I create a List Box on a form to that table it displays the fields as True/False, how can I get the list box to also display the field as a checkbox.

I seem to remember - way back in my access class that I have not used regularly, therefore have forgotten much - that there is a way to put a description of the query or form or table that pops up in a kind of box when the cursor is placed over the name. I hope that makes sense - if not, read on.
I have a lot of queries and would want anyone using them to know what they will do before they click on one - because it might mess things up.
Thanks in advance,
Peg
What is a combo box and how do I make one?
