I'm working on the Navigation Form template in Access 2010, which is new to me. It appears that one needs to use the BrowseTo command to open up a form in the built-in subform module. I'm trying to create a couple of buttons where each button opens a form in a different data mode; one in read-only and one in add mode. Here is the syntax I used for read-only:
frmSales is the Sales form I want both of the buttons to open and frmNavigation is the Navigation form. It seems to be ignoring the data mode part at the end however. It only will open in Edit mode. Is there something I'm doing wrong with this command?
I am trying to remove the built in form views from access 97. Is it possible to remove the navigational functions of the form while in view mode (ie first record, previous record, search, next record, and last record)? There is also an arrow bar that has no functionality to it placed at the left side of my forms that I would like to get rid of. Is this possible? Thanks for your help!
I need to create a census report from the employees we serve and their dependents, by company. I have a union query of the Employees table and Dependents table to put them all on one list, then a form where you can type the name of the company you need, with a button that opens the report. This works great, except for the fact that sometimes we don't need the dependents; if a company has over 100 Full-Time employees, we only need the employees. I've added a check box ([IncDep]) on the form, asking the user if they want to include the dependents, but I don't know how to get this to filter the report. I have a Relationship field on the tables that specifies an employee as a "Subscriber", so I'd like to filter the report where [Relationship] = "Subscriber" but I don't know how to do this. The union query specifies both Employees.Relationship and Dependents.Relationship to the text box [Relationship], but when I do something like
Dim stDocName As String If Me!IncDep.Value = False Then stDocName = "Census" DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acViewReport, , "[Relationship]='" & "Subscriber" & "'" Else stDocName = "Census" DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acViewReport End If
I have a combobox on a form that lets the user select a business name which then populates the rest of the fields in the form appropriately. But when it does this it makes it so that the seach function at the bottom of the screen no longer works, as it only has the selected record as an option. So before selecting a name from the drop down list at the bottom of the screen is says "Record: 1 of 5" but after selecting the name it become "Record: 1 of 1." Is there anyway to still allow the built-in search function to work alongside using a combobox?
I have a form for inputting products into a table called "products". On this form is a combo box which lists the Suppliers. This list is generated by a Table called "suppliers".
If the supplier has not alredy been entered into the supplier table then it is not listed in the combo box list. I have added a button to open a supplier entry form to add the supplier to the supplier table. Once the new supplier is entered and the supplier entry form closed, the new entry does not show in the combo box list unless you close the product form and reopen it.
How do I refresh the combo box list without closing the form it is in and reopening it.
I have a datasheet form that is used to update existing data in a table. One of the fields that can be udpated is Department. On the table I'd like to update, the DepartmentID is stored. The DepartmentName is stored in a seperate table.
I would like to use a combo box so users can select from a list of Department Names, then update the DepartmentID field in the main table. However, it appears the combo box can not be "bound" to the DepartmentName field in the Department table - every time the combo box is changed it tries to update the Department table. If I make the combo box unbound, no data appears in the combo box so users can't determine what the current Department is.
Using the Form View I could set a default value for the combo box based on the current record, but that doesn't seem possible in the Datasheet View. Is there a way around this?
I have an unbound combo (because it is synchronised with another unbound combo box) box that selects a record, but I can not get it to update the rest of the form to show the required data.
The form looks up project data from 3 seperate tables which are all linked by relationship.
I can't work out how to update the selections available in a combo box as follows: I use a combo box in a main form to select a record (yacht) If it's a new yacht then I use an event linked to a button to call another form to add the new Yacht On exiting the Yacht Maintenance form I return to the main form The combo box in the main form doesn't list the yacht i just added unless I exit and re-load the form
I'm not sure of the best way to refresh the combo box selections or main form without exiting.
I have a create new record from with Employees information taken from tblEmployees. On that form I have a dropdown box of company names taken from tblCompanies. How do I get that to input a ClientID into tblEmployees when I add the new employee? At the moment it just adds a new employee but leaves the ClientID box blank.
I have a simple form with a combo box linked to a field on a query and command button with vb code to open a report based on the value of combo box. The command button also includes code to requery the value of the combo box so that what was already generated in the report will not display when generating another report. Since the requery is tied to the command button, there is a delay in requery of the combo box vallue unless I click the command button twice to remove the report already generated. how to apply the requery to the combo box so that when I click my comman button, the requery process will work without me having to click the command button twice?
Ok So I've created a Database to track phone calls coming into a call center. (Originally created in Open Office, but then we switched to Access)
I've got a form that has buttons to run multiple reports.
The Reports pull data from a table based off dates found in another table (Something I used in Open Office)
Table 1 has all the phone calls
Table 2 has a From date and a to date
The report pulls the phone calls in table 1 between the dates in table 2. In open office I used Subforms (Which were seemless) and combo boxes to update the dates in Table 2 before running the report.
Is there an easier way to accomplish this in Access? If so How? If Not, is there a way to make a seemless subform in Access?
I have a form named CustomerForm.I have a query named CustomerQ. On my form I have a combo box named combo6.Combo 6 lists all of the company names from my customer table and includes the autokey field which is hidden.When I click on a value in my combo6 I want the values on my form to then be based on the value from combo6 whereas at the moment I select a value in combo6 and nothing happens other than combo6 now displays a different value. how to refresh/ repopulate the data based on combo6 without having to create more forms and queries.
I'm working with Access 2007 and am trying to make a form with multiple tabs that will update when a certain business name is selected in the combo box at the top of the form. I have tried looking up different codes to make the combo box update correctly but can't find anything. Right now I have this code in my After Update:
Private Sub cboBusinessName_AfterUpdate() On Error GoTo myError Dim rst As Object Set rst = Me.RecordsetClone rst.FindFirst "[GrowerID] = " & Me.cboBusinessName Me.Bookmark = rst.Bookmark
leave:
If Not rst Is Nothing Then Set rst = Nothing Exit Sub myError: MsgBox "Record Not Found" Resume leave End Sub
How to update data from one table to another table using form.
I have data coming from design team in Database 1 and using form i want search data and assign the job to a person and store it in the database with his name. I have to do this because database from design team is read only.
I thank you in advance for considering this inquiry.
From within a Form.field (based on a master table query), I desire to trigger two events; one before update and one after update.
This function will serve to document specific form.field value changes to a "log" table for review prior to being committed back to the master table.
What I'm looking for are functions, which I can use in a Macro or VBA code to facilitate a field read and copy before change and a read and copy after change triggering.
I have a problem with a form that will update two tables.
I have 2 unbound comboxes that define the lower and upper limit of the data I want to update.
Something like Combo1 = (#5-1) ; Combo2 = (#5-9)
Then I have 3 textboxes that are unbound. They will recieve information from the user(keyboard), about the location of certain pictures on my HD. (Textbox1) will be the path of the picture, (texbox2) will be the name of the picture and (textbox3) is the database number of the picture (like 29).
I also have a (commandbutton1) that would update the respective tables related with the form, Textbox1 will update the field [Objecto] of table1, Textbox2 will update the field [Name] of table1 and Textbox3 will update the field [PhotoNumber] of table1.
I don't know the code that should go on the click event of the commandbutton.
Can someone help me?
With best regards
Jorge
P.S. The lower and upper limits should also be updated with the path, name and number
I have a form which has a table as it's Record Source. The problem lies when a bound combobox or bound textbox is changed, the change is noted on the form but when I reference the value of the object it comes back as null. So I look in the table and the field has not changed. But if I requery the form then it takes.
I've never had this happen to me before, is there something I am missing? :confused:
I need to refresh my mind on something. When I try to update my 'Circuit' table via my form, I get a message that required fields are not in the table. I get 'Cannot insert null...into table' It is talking about trying to put a numeric ID key field that is required into the table, but since the record is not added yet the table which is oracle, doesnt have that value. How do I code this so the numeric value needed gets inserted in the table before I go to update the record?
I want my table to update on my last record entry when I close the form. Now, I just have docmd.close under the Close button and the last entry didn't make it to the table. What do I need to do?
I am trying to change all the entrys in a table that contain 0's to 1's when a user clicks a check box on a form. I am using the code below but it keeps erroring can anyone help?

I am very new to access, so please go easy on me. I have created a form with a simple calculation such as a field equaling an addition of two other fields. It calculates fine, but the calculation does not appear in the table view. All other typed fields appear there, but not the calculation.
The problem is that the purpose of the database is for use with a merged document. I need the calculated value to appear in a field in the merged document.
I'm a relative beginner at VBA and I'm trying to use a form to update a table. The form is used to get an agent name, start and end date. When they hit the "update" button, I want to go to the table, select all records where the agent name (called Fullname in the table) matches and the field called "event_date" is between the start and end dates. I have the below code, which isn't working.
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(Table) rst.MoveFirst Do While rst.EOF = False If rst.Fields("Fullname").Value = Me.Agent And Me.StartDate <= rst.Fields("event_date") And rst.Fields("event_date") <= Me.EndDate Then rst.Edit rst.Fields("CompleteDate").Value = DATE rst.Fields("Comments").Value = "Autofilled" rst.Update End If rst.MoveNext Loop rst.Close
hi there I am having some difficulty with using Access (aren't we all?) ;-( I have a table with a the following fields: START_DATE, END_DATE, RENTAL_PERIOD, DAILY_COST & TOTAL_COST.
What I am tring to achieve is that when someone fills in the START_DATE, END_DATE & DAILY_COST fields (which update the table behind the form) that the form will take the END from the START and put the result into the RENTAL_PERIOD field and then multiply this by the DAILY_COST value to automatically fill in and display the TOTAL_COST field.
It must be simple but I just can't get it to work and it's stopping me from sleeping :mad: I have found myself doing Access in my dreams which is not good!!
Any tips much appreciated - Thanks Mike
PS I have written 2 queries which will calculate this for me but dont seem to be able to action the queries from within the form (if that helps!)
I have a form created from a table and I had to use calculations in some of the fields to automate certain processes. Now, if I pull a report based on the fields in the table - I am getting all except for the fields with the calculations. Is there any way to update the main table - since most of the calculations were done with text boxes?
