Update Field From Text Box

Dec 7, 2005

I have a form with two combo boxes, one for shipping point and one for destination point. I then use a text box to concatenate the 2 values together. All of this is working fine on the form. I now want to store this value in a freight table. I'm using the table as the controlsource for the form so I have tried the following code but it doesn't work.

Private Sub Text27_AfterUpdate()

Me.Route = Me.Text27.Column(0)

End Sub

Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks for you response.

Text Field Update Depending On List Box Value

Aug 19, 2005

I realize there are several threads already dedicated to this particular topic but my situation is slightly different... First, my tables are set up like so:

tblStudent(studentID,LName,FName,MI,Gender)
tblRack(rackID,roomID,studentID,rackNumber)
tblRooms(roomID,roomNumber)

There are 3 racks to a room and a total of 90 rooms. A room can hold up to 3 students. A list box holds values that I have typed in (the room numbers). I went with typing them in rather than pulling them from a query because of the way my tables are set up. If I pull from a query as the tables stand, room numbers show up 3 times, once for each rack. I want to be able to fill in text boxes with information on students assigned to the room I choose from my list box (FName, LName, etc...) I'm kind of at a loss here on how to go about getting the info that I want. Using the column property to populate text fields is probably going to be much easier but a query is needed (I think) and using a query causes room numbers to show up 3 times in my list box... Anyone want to throw me a bone?? Thanks! :)

Hey Guys,

I'm looking to create a "Same As Billing Address" check box that would automatically udpate the address in an order to reflect the customer's billing address.

I understand how to sync a combo box to an option group ( -- great article by the way)

I Guess what I'm looking to do is:

1. Sync a "Same As" Checkbox to multiple text boxes in the form (Unit, StreetAddress, City, Province, Postal) such that these fields are UPDATED (writen to) with the same information as the billing address

2. [U]IF the "Same As" Option is selected, I need the updated fields to lock, allowing no further update... but must by unlocked if the "Same As" option is NOT selected.


Please help me out with this one guys.. I really need it.

Update Date Text Field From Several Combo Boxes

Oct 29, 2006

I've searched for this everywhere but I haven't yet found a solution, even though I'm sure it should be pretty simple.

I have 2 combo boxes: cboMonth, cboDay
and a text field: txtYear

cboMonth has values: Jan-Dec
cboDay has values: 1-31

After selecting the combo boxes and entering the year, I want the result to be displayed in a text box, with the format of Long Date.

How is this accomplished?

Thanks for any help!

Queries :: Update Fields By Splitting Text From Other Field

Nov 28, 2014

I have one field called FULL_ADDRESS. From that field I am going to populate two other fields. One called ADD_1 and the other, ADD_2.

In the FULL_ADDRESS field I have the following text :

"BOX 2747 ROCKY MOUNTAIN HOUSE AB T4T 1L7"

I want ADD_1 updated to:

"BOX 2747 ROCKY MOUNTAIN HOUSE AB"

and ADD_2 updated to:

"T4T 1L7"

While I understand how to do an update if I was using a space as a reference, i.e.

Trim(Left([FULL_ADDRESS],Instrrev([FULL_ADDRESS]," ")-1))
Trim(Mid([FULL_ADDRESS],Instrrev([A]," ")+1))

I can't figure out how to skip the first space from the right, and reference to the second occurring space, so that I get "T4T 1L7" to populate the ADD_2 field, and everything to the left of "T4T 1L7" placed in the ADD_1 field.

Unbound Text Field In Continuous Form: Update One Record, They All Get The Same Value

Feb 20, 2006

Hi,

I want to show some text from another table based on the values of the bound fields in each record of a continuous form. I thought it would be easy, but I can't get it to work.

I step through the records in the bound recordset and use some of the values to query another table. Then I use the value from the query to populate the unbound text field.

It works fine for each record. But every time the unbound field is updated, all the records in the continuous form are updated.

I'm stuck on this one. It's probably something simple to fix - if you know what to do!

Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks!

Forms :: Text Field Auto Update When Adding New Records

Jul 22, 2014

I have 2 tables Master table (Jobs) containing the primary key ("Job Reference") and 2nd table (Candidates) with the foreign key ("Job Reference")

2 Forms

frmJobs Form to view job details
frmCandidates form to view Candates information

I have placed add new candidate button on the frmJobs form which opens the candidate form in the add mode as a blank form. This is fine but I'm looking to add a record where it picks up the "Job Reference" text field value from the main frmJobs and update it in the "Job Refernce" text field on the frmCandidate when I click add new candidate.

How can I achieve this? I'm fairly new to access/vba

Modules & VBA :: Moving Rich Text From Access Memo Field To A Word Text Box

Jul 24, 2015

We need to move rich text from an Access memo field to a Word text box. So far the best Ive been able to come up with is in the code below. In this code pprs!What is a record set field of a table memo field that is bound to a text box enabled for rich text. The rich text seems to be stored as html as so I can get word to convert it by enclosing it in html tags.

Reports :: Splitting Single Field Into Multiple Text Boxes Or Multiline Text Box

Jun 4, 2013

I have a single field in a table called "Client Contact", where users enter a semicolon between the name, address, and city state & zip. My reason for this was so we could copy client info with a single copy and paste (like from an email). But, on the final report, it needs to have these three parts split up into different lines, or even different textboxes. I can't find a way to do that.

Sorting Text Field Containing Both Text And Numbers Sequentially?

Mar 26, 2014

We have a database that we use to track the tablets in our organization, a combination of Apple, Android, and Windows.

We label them with a hostname depending on their branding. Example below.:

APPLE01
APPLE02
APPLE03

ANDROID01
ANDROID02
ANDROID03

WINDOWS01
WINDOWS02

In the database we use the field name HOSTNAME for these entries. When sorting the field, due to it being a text field, we get the traditional sort of

APPLE01
APPLE02
APPLE10
APPLE100
APPLE101
APPLE11
APPLE110

ANDROID01
ANDROID02
ANDROID10
ANDROID100
ANDROID101
ANDROID11
ANDROID110

We would like to have them show up as

APPLE01
APPLE02
APPLE10
APPLE11
APPLE100
APPLE101
APPLE110
ANDROID01
ANDROID02
ANDROID10
ANDROID11
ANDROID100
ANDROID101
ANDROID110

What is the best way to tackle this?

Event For Text Box Update

What event can I use? Does one exist for this?

Update Text Box From A Combo Box Using VBA

Hi All,



Thanks so much for your help in advance. I’m working on a Form1 that has a combo box with Row Source coming from a query Just like:



NAME ITEM_ID

Smith 10011

Smith 10012

Scott 10022

Clark 10015

Now, I want to be able to update the Item_ID value to text boxes txt_SN1 and txt_SN2 once I click on the combo box and select the name “Smith” then show 10011 in txt_SN1 and 10012 in txt_SN2. I’m not sure if this can be done with record set or just with column values from the query.



Can someone help me with this problem? Your help will be highly appreciated.

Apending Text Into A Table Field That Already Contains Text

Jun 11, 2007

I am wondering if there is a way to automate the pasting function of text from one field into several others in a table without losing the data that is already in the field.

As an example: in 20 fields I have "I love potatoes" and I want to paste the text string, "And I love tomatoes too" in every field without overwriting the original text.

Thanks.

Field Update Using DSUM: Field Joins Are Not Working Correctly

Sep 11, 2007

I know there are numerous threads regarding dsum() on the forum, but I wasn't able to find the exact answer to my problem.

The root of my problem is that I'm trying to update a field on a table using dsum, which references another query to update the table. Although I have all of the correct keys from the physical table joined to the query in the dsum function, the code/ms access seems to ignore the joins. As a result, all payees are having their "vol" field set instead of a select subset.

Query (GetTxnVolAmtTR"):

SELECT p.payee_id, sum(txn_volume) AS vol, t.market, t.period_id
FROM ft_payees AS p, ft_txn_summary AS t
WHERE p.payee_id=t.payee_id And p.market=t.market
GROUP BY t.payee_id, t.period_id, t.market, p.payee_id;


Update statement (references the query above):

UPDATE tmp_ft_component AS rc
SET rc.volume = Dsum("vol","GetTxnVolAmtTR","GetTxnVolAmtTR.payee_id= " & [rc.payee_id] And "GetTxnVolAmtTR.market= " & [rc.market] And "GetTxnVolAmtTR.period_id= " & [rc.period_id] & "")
WHERE rc.component_name='Total Revenue';

as you can see, I have all of the fields I want joined, but the code seems to ignore this. I've tried looking at this site: http://www.mvps.org/access/general/gen0018.htm , but haven't found my answer. Any help would be much appreciated!

Forms :: Update Field Value In FormB From Underlying Field Value FormA

Apr 17, 2015

I have two forms, both of which have a field called JobID (Form A is the primary Key and Form B is the linked field - Relationship: One to Many).

Form A = FrmJobs
Form B = FrmPurchaseOrders

I have put a command button on Form A. When I click the button I need it to open Form B and then automatically fill the field JobID in Form B with the same value in Form A from which it was opened. I have tried the following:

Private Sub Command214_Click()
Me.Refresh
On Error GoTo Err_Command214_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String

[code]...

The above code works on my old database but not on my new database. I get the following message "Object does not support this property or method".

Update A Form Field By Double Clicking A Query Field

Apr 25, 2013

I have 3 peices of data that I am working with: Group number, plans and benefit elections. On my form I have fields for the group number and plan and 2 queries. When I enter a group number the first query displays a list of plan descriptions for that group. From there I can enter the plan description into the form's plan field and that runs the second query to give me a list of valid elections for that plan. This all works fine but I want to make the plan selection a little less tedious. What I would like is to be able to double click the query field housing the plan description and have it copied to the form's plan field. I could use the ID instead of the plan description but I work in a production environment and very key stroke counts so I would really like to have a simple double click process.

Is this even possible? If so how would I set that up? I tried using the double click on event macro builder but it does not seem to have this kind of option.

My form contains fields for group number and Plan. The same form houses 2 querys, one that pulls plans based on the group number and the other to pull elections based on the plan field (not the plan query). Would like to double click a plan within the plan query and have that description populated into the form's plan field.

Unable To Update Text Box From Combo Box..

Sep 5, 2006

I'm trying to have the user select an item from a combo box which gets its values from a table with multiple columns. Once something is selected in the combo box the form will auto-update the adjacent text box to a value in the same row (different column). The combo box is called 'Media' and the text box is called 'Tape Cost'. When you select a type of tape in the combo box the adjacent text box should populate a value determined by the second column of the table. Instead I'm getting a message that the, "Method or data member is not found" and it highlights the red text below.


Here is the code I'm using:

Private Sub Media_AfterUpdate()
Me.Tape Cost = Media.Column(2)

End Sub


Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Thanks!
