i have a little problem, at least, i think it is little.
Within my access db form i have made a combobox for searching a number. When selected the applicable information will be shown in the detail part of the form.
I made a button in the detail section, to allow people to change the information.
However, after i placed the button with the allowedits = false and true part to autorise if people may or may not change the information, the combobox for searching a number only works when i first press the button [change] (so that the property is set on allowedits = true), then search the number by the combobox. Directly after that the combobox is not allowed to be used(!?)
What do i want?
- combobox is allowed to be used always
- information in detail section only is allowed to be changed when pressing the [change] button.
I am not sure how to do this, please help me if you want? :confused:
I was just wondering if it was possible to set the Allowedits setting to false whenever someone moves to a new record.
I currently have Allowedits = No by default on form open, and an "Edit" button which sets allowedits to Yes. However, I want the form to go to Allowedits=No again when the user scrolls to a new record.
Also, is there a way to set the form so that if someone makes changes to a record, the change doesn't automatically save unless you press a save button.
I've got a form which shows all the records in a list, with a check box next to each which is for choosing which ones to print. i have created a "de-select all" button, using a macro with simple SQL behind it -
"UPDATE companys SET print = false WHERE print = true"
when i test this button, it sets all the boxs to false except for the last one that was set to true. it also doesnt update the form straight away, sometimes the checks say until you scroll so the record is no longer on screen.
IIF function not returning the false value. I have the following results based on the query shown below.
SELECT Trade.Ref_No, Trade.CERS_Price, Market.[USD/EUR_Rate], IIf("CERS_Price_currency = US Dollar.USD",[Trade].[CERS_Price]*[Market].[USD/EUR_Rate] , 0) AS [Price In Euro], Market.[USD/CHF_Rate], Trade.CERS_Price_Currency FROM Status INNER JOIN (Market INNER JOIN Trade ON Market.MarketDate = Trade.Trade_Date) ON Status.StatusID = Trade.StatusID;
Price In Euro USD/CHF_Rate CERS_Price_Currency CERS_Price 35 7 US Dollar. USD 5 91 7 Euro. EUR 13 1,715.00 7 Brazil Reais. BRL 245 759.00 33 Indian Rupees. INR 23.00
As you can see returns all calculations whether is USD or not. Can you help please? Ultimately I want to do this for all other currencies by nesting the IIF function.
i created a form to work as a menu. At this point the menu has only one option (File) which is a text box. Once the user click on the text box FILE, a list box appears below, leting the user select between a few options. When the user clicked one of the options , a new forms comes (popup and modal in yes).
The problem is that when the second form is closed, the menu still has the list box visible. I would like to make it no visible but i dont know how.
Hi I have a subform with several records entered. When a particular entry is made in the subform eg. chocolatebiscuit I want the subform to not allow any more entries - records in that particular subform Is there a easy way to do this?
I have tried to do this by saying Me.Form.allowadditions = false
Unfortunately this works on the whole form and stops the next subform - belonging to the next main record from adding a new record. How do I restrict the new records in A particular subform?
I tried Me.Form.allowadditions = true on entering the subform
but it doesnt work every time.
Also i put on enter if not chocolatebiscuit then allow entries but for new records it takes the last entry in the subform which could be two records back in the main form says yes there is a chocolatebiscuit and will not allow a new record.
I have a query that shows banned users (I work in a school). When a student's ban has ended, a tick box is checked in a form linked to tblBannedUsers to show they are no longer banned.
The query itself simply queries all records in tblBannedUsers with a username field (UserID) taking search criteria from a box on a form.
However, I want to filter out the students that are no longer banned (those with a tick in the checkbox). To do this, I thought it would be a simple case of editing the query, and in the Ban Lifted field criteria, use =False to say I only want those records with a tick.
This doesn't work and I still get all records given the combo box filter (which are just filtering for a username...if I leave it blank it gives all records via Is Null).
What should I be putting in the criteria to filter out those records with a ticked checkbox?
Thanks,
Steve Swallow
EDIT: I've just done a test query and <B>No</B> is the criteria to use, but when I use this criteria in my query which also take data from a form's combo box it ignore the <B>No</No> criteria.
Hi, I've used the following code in the Criteria line in a query (Access 2000)and the false condition doesn't seem to work. If I replace the false condition >0 with any other single value (say 1) it works fine.
This seems really straight forward to me. I have 3 forms - FormA, FormB and FormC. When I open FormA the user inputs some information, when they tab to the last field, FormB opens (which I want to be invisible) and Form C opens.
I've tried putting this coding on the Open event of FormB: Me.Visible = False
I've also tried putting this code on the Open event of FormC Forms!FormB.Visible= False
Neither work. My form (FormB) still displays when eithr event occurs.
I have a form with many command buttons. This form is a master for a database that keeps time for my department. One command button is a setup button that I want the user to run once and only once. What code, and where do I put it will allow my to set the command button's visible or enabled to be false. Even when the user closed the database and reopend it, if the user has run the setup once, I do not want to allow them to run it again.
Is it possible to filter a forms records by using a boolean True/False field. I want to show all current records for option 1, Expired records for option 2, and all records for option 3. The form is based on 'tblMembers' which has a field [Expired] which is a boolean yes/no field formatted to true/false.
SELECT tbl_Visits.vst_VisitDate, tbl_Visits.vst_Complaint, tbl_Visits.vst_Diagnosis FROM tbl_Visits WHERE (((tbl_Visits.vst_Complaint) Like "*asthma*")) OR (((tbl_Visits.vst_Diagnosis) Like "*asthma*"));
returns records with no occurrences of asthma. about 4 of 638 hits.
I have a combobox, and the 'OnNotInList' event has code to show a message box, then set focus to another control. That all works fine, however I am still getting the system generated 'Not in List Warning', despite the code for the not in list event starting with DoCmd.Setwarnings (False)
There are around 100,000 records to update. Would a SQL Statement be more efficient?
It is a local table being used to sum up the results of a handful of rules. The columns can only hold True or False (datatype) If and only if all columns are True - then true
MyRow T T T T T T T T T T - Sum in next column is T MyRow T T T T T T F T T T - Sum in next column is F
Speed is very important. The Recordset for a single row is still open on the Currrent Record since the Update just finished.
Code: RS_RE_1SegStatusProfiled.Fields("Total") = (RS_RE_1SegStatusProfiled.Fields("RE_1") AND CStr(RS_RE_1SegStatusProfiled.Fields("RE_2") AND (RS_RE_1SegStatusProfiled.Fields("RE_3") ' and so on
My guess is that since the recordset is open to the current record on a local table, it will be efficient to just re-read all of the values and And them together.
Since I have code writing to each record, I could also go through all the extra assignment of a local variable.
I'm trying to limit the records on a subform via an option group selection. The group has 2 options: optionTrue (option value = 1) and optionFalse (optio value = 2). I have the following code in my query criteria of the true/false field.
IIf([Forms]![FrmHome]![frameProcessed]=1,-1,0)
The false part works, but the true part doesn't. I've tried many variations using true/false, using checkboxes, etc. and nothing works.
The database is SQL Server if that matters.
Any suggestions?
Also, is their a way to have an option for True or False or ALL?
I'm really not sure how to go about this. I'm creating a course booking system and when creating a booking I need to check for current bookings with the same employee and course id's (i.e. the employee is already booked on the course). The query takes the employee and course id's from a form, and is initialised when the 'book' button is pressed. It correctly selects if the person is already booked on the course but I want the query to return a value to the form i.e. if it returns null/false then the booking can be created but if it returns a record/true then the booking already exists and a message box can be displayed.
I'm not sure if I'm going about this the right way, can anyone suggest how this can be done as described above or suggest a better way of doing the task?
I have a form that shows the records found in a query if the completed tick box is false. this is fine, but i have also put the tick box on the form, and wish the user to tick it when they are done how ever they, get a beeping error and wont let you change it to true. Can anyone suggest the resolutoin for this.
I want to create an opion group with two rad buttons in it. The values of those button wont be values but as true or false in order to use it in another text box to performa calculations. EX.
=IIf([radNew],"Hello",IIf([radUsed],IIf([txtAgeofCar]<184,[txtExciseinTotal]=Null,IIf([txtAgeofCar] Between 185 And 365,[txtExciseinTotal]*(-0.15),IIf([txtAgeofCar] Between 366 And 1095,[txtExciseinTotal]*(-0.2),IIf([txtAgeofCar] Between 1096 And 1825,[txtExciseinTotal]*(0),IIf([txtAgeofCar]>1825,[txtExciseinTotal]*(0.25))))))))
As you can see radNew and radUsed are the Options Buttons. Its not working in an option group.
Overview: Ok so i have document database, and i have a number of forms these forms have a tab control layout on them. There is a 'Search' tab, a 'Add' tab, and a 'Edit' tab. Now what i have is a edit log table linked with the documents table on two seperate subforms on the 'Search' page. They are linked by the 'Document Number' which is not the primary key. The 'Add' page is linked to the document subform and the 'Edit' page is linked to the Log subform.
Aim: My aim is to have a changes log for each document so that when i select a document in the document subform that the all the changes made to that document are shown on the log subform.
Problem: When i open the 'Search' tab there are somtimes more than one record with the same 'document number' in the log subform. This is normal as users may update the same document more than once causing there to be 2 or more of the same document number listed under the log subform; but... this also causes the document subform to display a duplicate of the document with that 'document number'.
Proposed Solution: I dont know if there is a way but i was wondering if there is a piece of code that will automaticly hide any records that have the same document number on the document subform. Or if there is a better way please tell me.
Thanks for taking the time to read this, i hope i havent wasted your time by asking a simple and stupid question.
My client has an Access database where the value of a checkbox is stored in a field called Exclude_PropCount as -1 or 0. I am trying to get this form working online, but have been unable to successfully store this value in the db. I have set up a simple page to test it, and my relevant code is this:
sql_save = "INSERT INTO HVM_Data (VC, Exclude_PropCount) VALUES ('a9', '-1')"
con.Execute sql_save
set duplicateVC1 = db.Execute("SELECT Exclude_PropCount FROM HVM_Data WHERE VC = 'a9'")
response.write duplicateVC1("Exclude_PropCount")
But no matter whether I have '-1' or '0' in the INSERT statement, the response.write line always returns "False". And of course I've tried inserting "true" and "false", but it only accepts an integer.
As exceptionally bad timing would have it, my server is slightly fubar and I can't download the database to my PC to see what's actually being stored there, but looking at the above code, do you see anything I'm doing inherently *wrong*? This is my first time with checkboxes so I won't be surprised if that's the case. Hints?
Using DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet I'm exporting a table which has a couple of Yes/No fields formatted as Yes/No. However when I export, they appear as TRUE/FALSE? Am I doing something wrong?
