Form In Datasheet Mode : Name Of Textbox Is Caption Of Column ???
May 5, 2006My form is in datasheet mode.
One of the textbox is called txtHours
When I access the form the column caption is "txtHours" !
As you can expect it looks ugly.
So to get a decent caption like "Hours" I am forced to set my textbox name to "Hours" !
As you can expect it goes against my coding standard to do that.
Beside I want the caption of some textboxes to include some non-standard letters such as `é' è' '!' ' ' etc. and if I put those in the textbox name it ruins the visual basic code !
How Do I Show The Subform As Form View Instead Of Datasheet View :confused:
Jul 19, 2007See 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?
Forms :: From Pivot View To Filtered Datasheet View
Nov 14, 2013I want to "zoom" to the underliyng data from pivot view. When in excel someone doubleclicks a field in a pivot table, it automatically creates a table containing all the lines that field were made up from. I want to achieve the same behaviour in Access.I started to think towards a VBA coda, that could be initiated from the form's double click event. It should go to datasheet view with the prpoer filter criterias.

May 7, 2008Hi,
When the user click the button, then it will give out a popup form to the screen, but I want to make the popup form's height as same as the screen/window/monitor's height, because the popup form's height is larger than the screen's height, and every user's monitor's height is different. So, I have to make it flexiable change of the height of the popup form.
How can I check the screen/window height by VBA function?
In Excel, it has Application.Height to check. In MS Access Form, I cannot find one for doing that.
Please let me know if you have one.
Thanks.
I Want Datasheet View... Why Does It Keep Showing Form View?
Apr 6, 2006I 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
Datasheet View
Nov 3, 2006when you select the Data sheet View you display error messages in the Accounts Sub reports fields.
The database has been included as a reference:
Forms- Double click Accounts Form By Discipline -data sheet view
Under Current balance,Spent, and Encumbered Columns you get error message instead of the actuall totals.
Please tell me how to correct this prolsdms
Datasheet View
Aug 20, 2004Is it possible to switch the view of a subform to datasheet when a command button on the mainform is selected?
I know it is something involving acFormDS...but I cant figure out the rest of the code! I appreciate your help in advance!
(P.S. I know you can right click the form and select datasheet. Unfortunately there are not many people here that are familiar with MS Access and I dont trust that they will know this)
Datasheet View
Jun 18, 2007I am reviewing a program that in datasheet view has '+' signs in the left-hand column -- it displays rows of companies. When I select a '+' another 'sub-datasheet view' of employees of that company appears, partially covering the original datasheet view of companies.
Is this the way sub-forms look in datasheet view or is something else involved?
Thanks

OnLoad View As Datasheet
Mar 9, 2005hi

Any Clue?

Subform Datasheet View
Jan 5, 2006I have a subform that is in databsheet view. When the user logs in to the db it sets the global variable with the group level they have.
I would like a column to be hidden for a certain group of users and have tried the following.
On the subform opening event i have
if vlevel = "engineer" then
me.Hours.columnhidden = True
Else
me.Hours.columnhidden = False
End If
And i have done the same on the Main Form open event identifying the subform by Form!Subform![Hours].columnhidden = True
But neither worked.
Can any suggest something.

I want to run a query to display data from these tables and display it in like a datasheet view. I know how to do this if it was all the same Access file, but not how to do it with two separate files.

Getting Rid Of The Row Header In Datasheet View?

View 1 Replies View RelatedChange The Datasheet-view Properties
Oct 24, 2005I created some forms in datasheet view. Now I want to change the datasheet properties (background color, text color...): the problem is that the forms I create with the new properties are displayed as I want, but the old forms are displayed with the old properties.
Does it exist a command to open the old forms/subforms with the new properties or do I have to re-create all the old forms?
Datasheet View Not Displaying Properly
Apr 21, 2006I'm using access 2003 sp2 with all the current updates. I've got several tables linked to a sql server 2000 DB. We use it for an app called Altiris. Most of the queries i've written from these various tables work fine. However, a couple of them for no apparent reason, do not display the correct data in the data sheet view when the query is ran.
for example, I have a simple query with two tables linked. The first field is asking for the "name" column of one of the tables. In the criteria of that column, I put something in to limit the names of the programs i'm looking for. Lets say I use LIKE '%adobe acrobat 7.0%' When I run the query, it returns a certain number of records, but in the name column, it has all wrong info. I just ran it and it came up with 4 records: "webcast....", "abacast client", "Ibm websphere", and something else. Nothing even close to "adobe...."
So then I export the query to an excel spreadsheet and then open. Guess what? It has the correct info. Four records of adobe acrobat. The other column I have is from the other table and is just listing pc names. They displayed properly in both datasheet and excel file.
does anyone have any ideas what could cause this? I've deleted the table and linked to it several times. I've used this table for many other queries and it works most of the time. I just have no idea what is causing it to do this for only a few queries.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Prior Record In Datasheet View
Mar 1, 2007In my db I am tracking different stages for an event. I have a subform that is in datasheet view. The last field (current) is a yes/no check box that says that this entry is the current stage of the process. In one of the fields I have a afterupdate event that says me.current = true. But what I need is to change the previous entry to show that stage's current to be false.Does that make sense?Date Event Location Current02/01/07 Drying Dryer X (when next event added this =false)02/05/07 Bagged Warehouse XUp until I enter the 02/05 entry the 02/01 entry was the current stage and I want a check in the current box. But when I enter the 02/05 entry that now becomes my current stage so on the 02/01 event then current = false and on the 02/05 event current = True. I can get the 02/05 event to show current = True but how do I make the 02/01 current =False?Thanks,Rick
View 4 Replies View RelatedShow Field Name In Datasheet View
Sep 6, 2005Hello,
I am trying to find out how to view the field names for variables while in datasheet view in Access. Or, alternatively, I would like to know how to toggle between datasheet and design view for a particular variable. Basically, I have a huge database and I need to be able to find the field name for a variable that I have identified in datasheet view, but right now all I know to do is go into design view and guess which field name it is, click on it, see if the caption matches what I see in datasheet view, and keep doing this until I find the match. I did not create this database which is why I am not familiar enough to know what goes with what.
Thanks in advance!

View 1 Replies View RelatedFields Different From Form To Datasheet View
Dec 27, 2006hello,
I also posted this in the report section, but it doesen't seem like the readers over there have any answers. I'm hoping maybe query people will.
I'm working on someone elses database, and I'm not too familiar with access.
He's got this form called Customer_Select, and when you click on a check box for a customer, it's option value is recorded in a field called Product, which then corresponds to the product/customer id located in a table called CustomerCharacteristics.
The problem is that I just realized that this Product field existed. When I view the form as a datasheet, I see the fields: Product, Lot_Nr, Version:, and Last Update:
However, when i look at the field list for the same form in Design view, I get: DateTime, VersionDisplay, and Description.
Does anyone know what's going on here? I need to reference the Product field in a query I'm modifying, but the expression builder can only 'see' the fields that are visible in design view.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Run Time Error In Datasheet View
May 4, 2005Hi all - I am getting a runtime error when changing a form from form view to datasheet view. The reason it's happening is that I have code in the OnCurrent of the form which populates a text box with information calculated from subforms on the main form. Obviously, with the form in datasheet view, the subform is not there, hence the error.
Any ideas on how I can stop this error from happening?
Cheers

Cascading Combos In Datasheet View
May 5, 2005OK, here is the problem. I have the following tables:
Customers
Consignment
ConsignDetails
Employees
Products
Suppliers
CompanyColors
CompanySizes
and I am creating a form to view the items currently on consignment with the customer. I have the main form 'Consignment' that holds the CustomerID, ConsignID, DateStarted, Employee (SalesPerson), Inventory Interval, and Closed (Y/N)... The subform lists in datasheet view the records in form 'ConsignDetails' that have the same ConsignID. The controls on the subform are :
ProductID
UnitPrice
Quantity
Color
Size
The ProductID is selected in a combobox from all products. The UnitPrice defaults to a DLookup() from the products table based on the ProductID, but can be changed and stored. The Quantity is a manual entry field. Color and Size are both supplier-dependent fields, in other words, the supplier of the product has unique Size and/or color codes or descriptions. I have no problem creating a combobox either in the AfterUpdate event of the ProductID or in the MouseDown event of the Color or Size field to limit the drop-down list to only those Colors/Sizes from the CompanyColors / CompanySizes tables with the same SupplierID as the Product in the first control.
So far so good, but here is where I am beating my head against the wall. Every time I choose a product from a different supplier, the Color and Size controls display ONLY the items from the current Supplier, not the items from the Supplier of the Product on their individual records. I have seen ways to make the combo popluate a locked textbox, hide the combo, and display only the text, but in a data entry application the user will be primarily on the keyboard, and the solutions seem to make it almost impossible to do without using the mouse over a continuous form.
I am using Access 2002 (ver 10.6501.6735) SP3 to create an ADP using MSDE to link to SQL7 tables....
Any help will be appreciated, I have spent almost two weeks trying different approaches and may be too close to the forest to see the trees.
Thanks,

How Do I Display Records In Datasheet View

What I want to be able to do is to display the records in a datasheet view. This is what I currently have and it works ok but how do I convert?Private Sub cmdSearch_Click() Dim LSQL As String Dim LSearchString As String Dim LTownString As String Dim LActive As Integer Set LSQL = Me.RecordsetClone If (Len(txtSearchString) = 0 Or IsNull(txtSearchString) = True) And (Len(txtsearchTown) = 0 Or IsNull(txtsearchTown) = True) Then 'MsgBox "You must enter a search string." Else LSearchString = txtSearchString LTownString = txtsearchTown Select Case Me.Frame99.Value Case Is = 1 stActive = " AND Active = -1" Case Is = 2 stActive = " AND Active = 0" Case Is = 3 stActive = "" End Select 'Filter results based on search string LSQL = "select * from tblContacts" 'LSQL = LSQL & " where LastName LIKE '*" & LSearchString & "*' AND Town LIKE '*" & LTownString & "*'" & stActive If Form_frmMain2.RecordsetClone.RecordCount = 0 Then MsgBox "No records found" Else Form_frmMain2.RecordSource = LSQL End If 'Clear search string txtSearchString = "" txtsearchTown = "" End IfEnd Sub
