Update Date Field With A Form Button Command?

Dec 12, 2012

I am setting up a "to_do" list in access. One of the field is the date the task was last completed. I want a button to update that date to the current date for the record that i am viewing on the form. Below is the code that I am using. When I click on my button, it updates the first record in my to-do table but not the current record displayed in my form.

Private Sub Cmd_Update_Click()
Dim DB As Database
Dim rs As Recordset
Dim i As Long
On Error GoTo Command4_Click_Error
Set DB = CurrentDb

Forms :: Possible To Use A Command Button To Update Matching Records In A Form

Jul 7, 2014

Is it possible to use a command button (update) to update matching records in a form (Test)? I have a file (april.xlsx) in which the first column Cytogenetics ID (14-xxxx) is a unique identifier that matches a record in the database. The next column Result (NL-F, NL-M, F-VUS, M-VUS, A-M, A-F) and the date column next to it are what need to be updated in that record. In the database there is a field called Result that needs to be updated with
the text from column 2:

NL-F and NL-M = Normal
VUS-F and VUS-M = Variant of Unknown Sig.
A-M and A-F = Abnormal

There is also a Final TAT Date field in the database that needs to be updated with column 3 in the spreadsheet (Final TAT Date).So basically when there is a match with column 1 in april.txt to a record in the database, the Result field in the database is updated with column 2 of april.txt and the Final TAT Date field in the database is updated with column 3 of april.txt.

Cytogenetics ID Result Final TAT Date
14-0390 Normal 4/11/2014
14-0396 Variant of Unknown Sig 4/18/2014

Open Form Command Button Fills In Text And Date Fields From Previous Form

Apr 27, 2005

I currently have two forms: frmE_SAFind and frmE_SAOrder

frmE_SAFind shows results from a query including fields [txtIDPO] and [dtmDate]
Example:
IDPO Date
btnOpnFrm 6543 2/1/05
btnOpnFrm 5681 1/1/05

frmE_SAOrder shows order details including [txtIDPO] and [dtmDate]

I have a open form command button set up on [frmE_SAFind] that opens [frmE_SAOrder]. Is it possible for me to modify its properties so that when the open form command button is clicked, the order details in [frmE_SAOrder] will represent the order that the user is selecting via the btnOpnFrm command?

Example: If I click btnOpnFrm for 6543, [frmE_SAOrder] will show me PO 6543 details.

Hopefully I made myself clear enough to understand. Thanks for your help!

How To Add A Command Button To Update Current Record Found

Dec 14, 2012

I am on Access 2007, and know very basic stuffs to create tables, queries, and form search. I have just successfully completed a search form filtered with a combobox. Also I have a built-in subform within the main form to display other results as well. The display results are based on one complex query (relational query). Now I need to add a command button that would take me to another form to update the current record found.Quick on the design:

- When I search a subject in a main form(subject lists in the combobox), it would populate results below in the main form and also subform would populate other results as well.

1. Add a command button so can take me to new form, but would need to have the current record populated.
2. Once updated, then how do I save it?

Entering Current Date In A Field Via Form Button?

Aug 16, 2012

I am trying to figure out to have the current date populate in table field by using a button on a form and not having much luck.

I have a table with 2 date fields, a 'created' field and a 'received' field. I already have the date set to auto populate for the 'created' field but I don't want the 'received' field to populate until the employee has gone into the database to receive the work.

I know I could have the employee just enter the date, but i want to avoid any typos or people simply forgetting to do it.

Ideally I would love the button to enter the current date into the 'received' field and save the entry, but I fine it needs to be 2 seperate buttons.

Updating Field By Command Button

Oct 22, 2006

Hi all

I have searched the forums and tried various options but I get an error message about the syntax.

The button is to run a SQL query to update a field by calculating on the value of a another field on the form. The query is
DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE BatchPayments SET BatchPayments.[GST Amount] = (BatchPayments.[Net Amount]*0.1) WHERE BatchPayments.BatchPaymentsID=" & Me.BatchPaymentsID&";"


The error message is a compile error where it is expecting a list separator or ).

Probably simple but it has got me beat.

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards

Form With Command Button

Jul 21, 2006

Hi,

I created a form that lets the user choose specific criteria, through a combo box, to run a report that houses several subreports. Each combo box is referencing 4 queries needed to run the report.

=[Acctmgr_renewed_detail]![RenewalMonth] And [Acctmgr_begbal_2005]![RenewalMonth] And [Acctmgr_cancelled_sum]![RenewalMonth] And [Acctmgr_renewed_sum]![RenewalMonth]

The form also includes a command button to preview the report. However, when I click the command button, the prompts for parameter values for the report popup again, when it should just print the report. Below is the code attached to my command button:

Private Sub Command2_Click()
Me.Visible = False
DoCmd.OpenReport "Acctmgr_monthly_activity", acViewPreview
DoCmd.Close acForm, "valarie"
End Sub

Is there something I need to add to my code? If so, what? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Queries :: Expression Field - Update User Inputted Date On A Form

Apr 10, 2014

I created a query with one expression field that updates a user inputted date field on a form. The expression adds a certain amount of time to the field (usually six months) so I know when the next inspection should take place. Everything works great except when I put a parameter in the expression field. It will not return the property dates. If I simply remove the expression, and input the date manually, it works just fine. Am I not allowed to use date parameter with an expression? It returns every date within the correct month, but will give me future years as well.

The expression is - NextInspectionDate: DateAdd("m",12/[InspectionFrequency],[LastInspectionDate])

The parameter is - Between [Forms]![Preventative Maintenance Dates]![Sta

Command Button In Datasheet Form ?

Feb 10, 2005

In one of my forms (which is a datasheet) I want to create a hyperlink or a command button (in each row), which enables the user to jump to another form (determined by the cell contents).

I have achieved that by replacing my datasheet with a continuous form and adding a command button. But I would much rather keep my datasheet format.

I tried to put a command button into the datasheet, but it won't display it.

Is it possible to achieve my objective here ? I am not having much joy with HELP.
