View Text Box Calculated In An Other Form.
Jun 27, 2005
Hello,
I have been struggling to see on a new form data calculated on a different form.
What I mean is that I have calculated a stock balance using a subform where the balance=[QuantityReceived]-NZ([Stock record table Subform].[Form]![SumQtyIssued])
Now, I woud need to see the balance value on an another form with the same Data source query.
I have been trying to assign the control source of the balance as follow but doesn't work: balance=Forms![Stock record sheet]!Balance where [stock record sheet] is the form where the balance is originallly created.
I guess that you can't reuse data calculated in form and should probably store these data in a table or a query. Is there any other sensible way to do this?

I have a Form which I have linked correctly to a subform. The Text boxes are showing in the Design view but are not when one switches to the Form View. Labels for Fields are visible in the Form View. Have even created a new subform and that will also not display the Text Boxes.

After reading many of the posts here, I decided that one of the problems with the tables in the db I was working on was in the primary keys. I had used the same field name as the primary key in all of my tables. This was RecipID, which was a user entered textbox with an example in a label beside it showing the format to use.
After reading stuff here, I decided this wasn't a good idea. So I changed RecipId to be an autonumber in the parent table (Household_Info) and a long integer foreign key in the children. Also, I added some fields to the parent table to identify the head of household (lastname, firstname)
I already had a continuous form made with a subform and a pop-up form associated with it based on my previous tables. Reran the query underlying the form, and the new fields showed up in the field list box for the form. The fields are all still present in design view, but I get a totally blank form in form view. I checked the forms recordsource and made sure that it was set to the new query.
Can anyone give me an idea about what I'm overlooking? Do I have to recreate the form?
(Sorry if this is a repeat of a question someone has already addressed, but I couldn't turn up any relevant threads after several hours of searching.)
Thanks, Charlotte

Why the ability to view the properties of an object within a form is not available when you double click on it in design view?
I was happily working away double clicking on a command button to edit some code when for some reason the next time I tried to edit it did not open up for me.
I was unable to access it even by right clicking on the object & selecting properties as that also appears to be disabled, not greyed out or anything but just does nothing when selected.
Have I inadvertently changed a setting somewhere that prevents the properties from being displayed?

See title :)
I have seen that in some sample db's rightclicking the mouse showed the menu with an option to check or uncheck the dataview option, unchecked the formview was applied, but when i 'just' import the subform, i cannot find somewhere the possibility to change from dataview to formview.
Maybe someone can help me with this, probably very simple(?), question?

Anybody ever heard of this before? I open a form, and it is empty, just a blank window. I open the same form in Design View, all appears well. :mad:

I have 4 tables and around 440 records but can only view up to 417 in the form I have designed. I have been adding new records via form and it has been added to my main table, but when i try to view it in form view - the record is not available to view. What do I need to do to correct this problem?
I have checked that there are no filters, data entry is set to No, Auto deletions, additions and edits are set to yes.
Also to mention it seems that the problem has arisen since I set up some new queries, there is a one to one relationship between the tables!

I have a form which is opened with a filter from another form. For some reason it views the form in form view, although it was set up as datasheet view. I even went to the form properties and the default was datasheet and i made it not to allow other views. This still didnt solve it. I want it to be in datasheet view because i want to show multiple records at the same time.
If u kno how i could resolve this please offer ur help
thanks

Lets say I have a form called form1 with 2 subforms named subform1 & subform2.
Can I place a text box on form1 that totals fields located on subform1 & subform2?
This is what I currently have as an expression in the text box. It is in the before update event, which may be the problem. Any ideas or solutions are much appreciated. :)
=[subform1].Form!field1+[subform2].Form!field1

Ok, so I'm pretty new at this stuff, and while I'm sort of familiar with VB, I feel like there should be a fairly simple expression that could solve my problem. I have a calculated text box that is based on what is entered in another text box, like so:
the source number is in a field called Word Count.
my calculated box's Control Source is =([Word Count]/250).
My goal is to automatically calculate the number of pages based on the number of words per page (250). I used Format so the bank rounding problem doesn't effect the outcome, but if the Word Count field is less than 125 the number of pages is 0. which is obviously not the case.
I've tried fiddling around with the rounding, but then it starts rounding higher word counts up too soon.
thoughts, please?

Hello, Bit of a newby to all this. Am trying to use a text box as a calculted field. I am doing so using an sql statment in control source The sql stat is built and tested using build query and then copied and pasted from sql view)
I keep getting #name? as an error.
I have managed using dlookup of the same saved sql to return the required value (which works) but find it to be a bit slow and clunky so wanted to give this a go instead. If somebody can have a look at the query below I would much apreciate.
=(SELECT Sum(QryInout!CostExVATGBP) AS TTlCostExVATGBP
FROM QryInout &_
WHERE (((QryInout.StockImportNoJoinToAll)=[Forms]![FrmSPurch]![ImportNoNew])) &_
GROUP BY QryInout.ProdType &_
HAVING (((QryInout.ProdType)="Freight"));)
Note that I have tried with and without the &_ and also with or with out the brackets..
Thanks

I am trying to use DCount to count the number of record that = 0 for field checklistitem_1 in table 'Data Input'.
I firstly tried =DCount("[ChecklistItem_1]","Data Input","[ChecklistItem_1] = 0") but this returned nothing.
So I tried =DCount("*","Data Input") just to see if I could get something back and still nothing.
I double check the names are correct, dropping the quotation marks different combination of brackets and nothing every time.
Please help me

I have a textbox in a report that I would like to calculate the sum of values that are less than 600.Then have a second textbox that counts the number of records that have values less than 600..This is based off of a query with calculated fields..I have been working with a formula that looks something like this
=Sum(IIf([BaleETime]="<600",0))
But all I get is a value of 0.BaleETime is the elapsed time between bales.

I am using the following and is working perfect
Private Sub NEXPPRC_AfterUpdate()
Me.[Purchase Description] = Me.NEXPPRC.Column(0)
Me.[Purchase Price] = Me.NEXPPRC.Column(1)
Me.[Purchase Units] = Me.NEXPPRC.Column(2)
[Code] .....
The above is for combo box, Now I want to use similar code to store calculated text in a field to the table "Purchases" but for the text box
Name of the text box:
Atcom
calculation Value:
AASTamt: ([aasc]*[Purchase Qty])
I tried but this is not working on the text box Atcom
Private Sub Atcom_AfterUpdate()
Me.[Atcom] = Me.([aasc]*[Purchase Qty]).Column(0)
Me.Requery
Me.Refresh
End Sub

Hi, I am in the process of creating a new database - I am a bit new to this. I have a main form, which also contains two subforms. The record source of the main part of the form is 11 tables, and then each of the subforms is based on one table each (so there are 13 tables altogether).
Everything seems to be linked up ok, and when I add new information to the form (and the subforms), the information gets saved to the tables as it should be. However, I want to be able to view past records in the form view, so that users can regularly update past records using form view. I can't do this. Each time I open the form view, the thing at the botton left says 'record one of one.' THen if I put the curser in (for eg) the box called 'client name' and click on the search button, I get a message saying:
"you can't find or replace now, the fields are not searchable due to:
- the fields are controls;
- the fields have no data;
- there are no fields to search."
well I don't really know what that means. There is definately data in there somewhere, because I can view it in the table view, but I'd like to be able to view and update old records, and search, in the form view.
any tips?
thanks for helping

I have a textbox on a form that displays a calculated number with regards to input from other text boxes.
I need this calculated number to update to a corresponding field within a table.
I have a button that updates the information, but the calculated field will not update.
I have an "=" expression written that does all of the calculating. When I put this in the 'control source' it calculates and displays on the form perfectly, but will not update the table. If I change the control source to the field within the table and then move the "=" statement/expression someplace else....the field is blank on the form, but I can manually input a number and it will update to the table.
Follow?

I have 4 texts fields [DEVICE INSTALL] , [INSTRUMENT STAND], [BRACKETS RACEWAY SUPPORTS], [TUBING CAPILLARY] all can be either a percentage from 1-100 or "N/A" except [DEVICE INSTALL].I would like to calculate the [percentage complete]
my calculation in the field is as follows:
([DEVICE INSTALL]+
IIf([INSTRUMENT STAND]="N/A",100,[INSTRUMENT STAND])+
IIf([TUBING CAPILLARY]="N/A",100,[TUBING CAPILLARY])+
IIf([BRACKETS RACEWAY SUPPORTS]="N/A",100,[BRACKETS RACEWAY SUPPORTS]))
/4
this seems to work to a degree. but for some reason when the [INSTRUMENT STAND] value is not "N/A" the percentage calculated is a wacky value much higher than 100. how could I possibly change my division #?

I'm creating a report to check for over- or under-stocked items. The report is working fine, gets all the records etc. except that it thinks that the OnHand field from my inventory query is text or something, at any rate not a number. I have successfully set the format of the field in the query to General Number, but that doesn't seem to have worked. Here's the SQL for the report:
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT Signs.SignCode, Signs.SignDescr, Size2.XYdim, qryOnHand.OnHand, Bins.Rack, Bins.Level, Bins.BinNum
FROM (Size2 INNER JOIN (Signs INNER JOIN (Items INNER JOIN qryOnHand ON Items.[ItemsID] = qryOnHand.[ItemsID]) ON Signs.[SignID] = Items.[SignID]) ON Size2.[SizeID] = Items.[SizeID]) INNER JOIN (Bins INNER JOIN InventoryDetail ON Bins.[BinID] = InventoryDetail.[BinID]) ON Items.[ItemsID] = InventoryDetail.[ItemsID]
WHERE (((qryOnHand.OnHand)<=[Check for signs with fewer than:]));

I have a calculated field which consists of a few other fields concatenated, i.e. [field1] = [field2] & [field3] & [field4].
I need field 1 to be unique when its concatenated, but fields2-4 don't need to be unique. Is there a way to do this?

I would like to append a text item to each value in a calculated field. consider the field name is "Division" and I want to append the word "Division" to the values put out by the field "Division"
My attempt was: Division & " " & "Division". This produced an error in the report.

(a) The On Open event of my report contains a VBA Sub that assigns a value to a variable named vShow. (Tracking the sub in VBA shows that vShow is correctly being assigned the desired value.)
(b) I then use vShow to try to control a calculation that occurs in one of the text boxes of the detail section in the report
(c) Basically, the control source of the textbox contains (in part) the statement (vShow>[fieldA]), which is embedded in a longer function.
(d) However, when I type this in at Control Source box of the Data tab of the the Property Sheet, Access always substitutes "[vShow]" for "vShow".
(e) So what I get is ([vShow]>[fieldA]), which treats vShow as the parameter of a parameter query.
ANY WAY TO OVERCOME THIS AND HAVE vShow recognized as the variable I defined at On Open? Perhaps there needs to be a variable declaration there, that I don't understand.
The basic form (vShow>[fieldA]) does not seem to be the problem, because I can enter, e.g. (500>[fieldA]) and everything works OK.

So I have a report with the following text box controls:
[Surname] & ", " & [Firstname]
=Sum([Quarter1_A]) - Named "Quarter_Total"
=Sum([Quarter1_T]) - Named "Quarter_Target"
=Val([Quarter_Total])/Val([Quarter_Target]) - Named "%Target" (Percent Format)
The report is grouped by the expression '[Surname] & ", " & [Firstname]'.I am trying to sort the records by the %Target text box. I tried entering the expression into the sort function but it still sorts by the grouped expression. I also tried sorting by the name of the text box but got the same results. How can I sort by the desired control?

I am trying to make use of the OpenForm command to open a form to a record where a textbox matches the value of a text box on another form.
On Form1, I have a textbox called txtRtnRef, and it contains a reference number in a similar format to SWR-9
On Form2, I have a textbox called txtReOrderRef (control source ReOrderRef) which also contains a reference number in the same format (SWR-9)
I am trying to have a button next to the text box on Form1 that has an OnClick Event that opens Form2 to the record containing the same text reference number.I have tried, to no avail, a number of variations of the OpenForm command, the most recent being
Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "Form2", , , "ReOrderRef = '" & Me.txtRtnRef & "'"
The form opens, but to a blank record?

I have a main form (tsTimeSheetMain) which contains a sub form (tsTimeSheetDataNewSub) in data sheet view. When I click off one row onto another row in the sub form, it triggers this code:
Forms!tsTimeSheetMain!ProjectMonSum.Requery
i.e. it tries to requery the ProjectMonSum field (on the main form) which is a dsum calculated field. This works fine and updates the ProjectMonSum field (which dsums values from the same datasource as the subform.
However, this seems to put the cursor back to the top left field in the subform (datasheet view), rather than leave it in the field I click on (in the subform).
Why is this happening and what is a decent workaround this issue? I just want to update the calculated dsum field each time you update values in the subform.
