Modules & VBA :: How To Have A Shortcut Option When Right Click On Each Item On List Box
Aug 1, 2013how I can have a shortcut option when right click on each item on the list box. So I got my answer with below code that opens another form "frmshortcut" with a listbox inside that shows list of options like "new task" , "edit item" . Now my problem is (like attached picture) the shortcut list (frmshortcut) will be open in another place when I right click the mouse, it is far from location of click. Also it shows some default in access when I right click in the listbox ("subform", "cut", "copy"), actually I do not like it shows these, just I like it shows shortcut list I have defined by the list box.
Private Sub ItemList_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single) Const RIGHTBUTTON = 2 If Button = RIGHTBUTTON Then DoCmd.OpenForm "frmshortcut"
' DoCmd.OpenForm "frmshortcut", acNormal, , , , acDialog
Forms!frmshortcut!txtparameter = Me.ItemList.Value
End If
End Sub

Blank Option (radio) Buttons In Option Group
Aug 18, 2006I am using an Access database for a foreign language dictionary project.
One of the forms I use is populated by a query (qryLemmaTable) to retrieve information from tblLEMMA.
This form works precisely as I intend it to work, but there is a glitch on it that is driving me mad.
The form in question has an option group with 11 radio buttons that correspond to the parts of speech associated with each word in tblLEMMA.
When I click on the button optAdjective I apply a filter and the only records that are displayed are adjectives. (The same applies for Nouns, Verbs, Prepositions etc.)
Here is the glitch: even though the radio buttons apply the filter correctly, no “black spot” appears in the button. Other signals on the screen let me know what word type is selected, so I can accomplish what I want, but I want the “black spots” too!
Perhaps this will be a clue: For each radio button I use the following code in the GotFocus event.
Me.FilterOn = False
Me.Filter = "wordtype = 'A'" ‘(or N, etc)
Me.FilterOn = True
And this for the Lost Focus event
Me.FilterOn = False
Thanks for the help.
Select Option Group Option Based On Checkbox Value
Aug 22, 2005Hi
I've got an Option Group with 3 options; Yes, No and Future.
I also have a range of Check Boxes; 1 for every day of the week.
When one of the check boxes is selected I want the Option Group to change to Yes.
Currently, the Option Group defaults to Future and No will only be available by manually selecting it. This doesn't need to be changed.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Cheers
Code Triggered From Label On Click Behaves Differently From Command Button On Click
Nov 7, 2006Often I use Labels as buttons due to the fact I can colour them the way I want, and use the on click event to trigger code.
The code below however works for a command button, but not a label button.
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmdatetime"
Do While Forms!frmdatetime!OKFlag.Caption = "False"
DoEvents
Loop
When this code is run by clicking on a command button, it works fine.
If run by clicking on a label, frmdatetime opens, but the mouse will not work on either of the 2 open forms unless you go down to the windows task bar, jump onto another window, and back onto frmdatetime.
If I remove the loop with the DoEvents in it, then the problem does not occur.
Can anyone enlighten me as to why this behaviour occurs.
Thanks

Search Tool Help
May 14, 2006Hi all,
I found this search tool example on this forum which works for my situation. Can someone tell me what changes I need to make so it works with my date field. When I search for data based on Last Name, First Name, or Account # the records appear fine, but when I click on one of the records I get this error message. " Could not locate [8/1/2005]". I would actually like to be able to search by the date field also. Can someone help me modify the database to accomplish this task. Thanks in advance.
Check Box Tool For Forms
Apr 20, 2006please see attachment.
I created a small database to help explain my issue.
When I click on the check box in box 1(train), the text box turns blue...great...and even better the other records stay clear when I scroll down, which is what I want to happen.
But when I scroll back up, from dog to train, the blue in the train box has gone- not what I want!
I would like the blue to stay in every box that I click on. Any ideas?
Thanks,
J
How To Make Your Own Custom Tool Bar

Let's say that I wanted to build a gun inventory but wanted the tool bar at the top to have the specific files I want people to click on. How is this done? Is it done with another program used as a developer with Access database? Hope this makes sense.

Access Lookup Tool
Oct 31, 2006Hey there,
I am wondering if there is somekind of tool that can be used in access that can run and locate any queries that are redundant and not used within a system. Also if there is any kind of tool that can be run that identifies fields that are in tables that are also not used in the application!
Not sure if such software exists but thought id ask before i manually begin to go through the application, this is all done to be done before normalisation of the application data and upgrade of the system
Thanks in advance

Linked Tables - Looking For Tool
Feb 21, 2008We have a nasty number of access databases spread around our network and linked to each other like a giant spiderweb.
I can easily open an database and using linked table manager find out what is attached and from where.
I need some sort of tool that will tell me where a table is linked to.
IE - you have a master database that holds the data. You have several other databases that are linked to the master data and run queries, reports etc. I need to find out where the master data is used.
Any ideas?

Reporting Tool Selection
Nov 19, 2004Hi all,
I want to display data from a database I have in MS Access. Any ideas on what sort of tool I can use to display the data locally? Can I get a free VB dev tool anywhere?
Access's reports and data access pages just aren't flexible enough for me. I know ASP and SQL well, but I don't want this database to be stored on our server.
Thanks for any feedback.

Custom Tool/Menu Bar Added
May 25, 2005Hey..
I'm having a rather strange problem that no one can fix, apparently. My teacher is even baffled :S.
Basically, I created a custom menu bar, took off some of the defaults, but now I am having a problem. I deleted the original custom menu bar and now I am posed with the following error when my database is loaded (I am using an autoexec script that opens the switchboard).
Can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks a lot, again, guys :).

View 14 Replies View RelatedAccess As A Research Tool, Not A Database
Apr 4, 2006I have a research project. I need to capture numerical values from a scroll bar into a table so they can be used to produce excel charts. I can capture the data no problem, my problem is how to present it in a user friendly format - a form.
I have to capture the following data via a form for each research respondent:
Name
Age
Sex
Occupation
Each respondent is then asked to rank five brands against seven different attributes. In format terms, my researcher wants to display one attribute at the top of a page with five brands listed underneath with the slider beside each brand. For example:
"The Worst IT Information" is the attribute at the page top
"Microsoft" is the brand, with a slider beside it so the resondent can select how much they associate/rank this attribute with Microsoft.
"Adobe" is the second brand with slider
"PaintShop Pro" is the third brand with slider
"Corel" is the fourth brand with slider
"Sage" is the fifth brand with slider
The same respondent then clicks to the next page which has a new attribute at the top, but with the same five brands underneath to rank the attribute against.
eg "full of bugs" is the attribute at the page top
brands and sliders are all as above
There are seven pages in all. At the end of the data collection I need to be able to find the average ranking for each brand against each attribute and apply the demographic information, for example
Microsoft had an average ranking of 7 out of 10 against the attribute "Worst IT INformation" against women 30Plus.
I can't figure out how to do this without collecting the information into tables called PageOne, PageTwo, PageThree, PageFour, PageFive, PageSix, Page Seven and using fields like: brand 1 (text), brand 1 (value), brand 2, (text) brand 2, (value). This seems to fly in the face of how you would normally create a table and will require queries to add together all the values gathered using different fields.
Does anyone have any suggestions on where I might be going wrong?

How To Get Undo And Redo To Appear In Custom QAT Tool Bar
Aug 21, 2013I am trying to create a custom QAT toolbar. Everything works except for the Undo and Redo buttons. They're giving me an error:
The specified control type 'button' is incompatible with the actual control type 'gallery' ID: Undo
The specified control type 'button' is incompatible with the actual control type 'gallery' ID: Redo
Code:
<customUI xmlns=http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2009/2007/customui onLoad="OnRibbonLoad">
<ribbon startFromScratch="true">
<qat>
<documentControls>
<button idMso ="Copy"/>
<button idMso ="Paste"/>
<button idMso ="PrintDialogAccess"/>
[code]...
"OnRibbonLoad" is a function in a module that just opens and closes a dummy form.If I take the Undo and Redo lines out of this code, it works fine. No errors.
FMS Access Visual Agent Backup Tool
May 12, 2005Have you guys ever used this scheduling tool from FMS Software that will do a nightly archive and compact/repair.
I tried it out on our live database (not so smart I guess) on a Friday and when I came in Monay it was corrupted. It seems to point to the FMS software corrupting my db.
I wanted to validate and use this software but ain't sure it I will now.
I like the nightly compact/repair. Is there another way to do that with Windows Scheduling or something?
Take a look:
