I have a form with 5 tabs. Each tab has 2 subforms.
When the form loads I am trying to select it's recordsource by doing this:
Me!Subformname_A.RecordSource = "SELECT FieldA, FieldB FROM TableA WHERE"
However, it throws an error.
Is there something wrong with this ?
I know this is probably already in the forum but it is getting pretty big and I can't find the answer. I have this:
frmMain frmMainSub frmMainSubSub recordsource = query1
How do I change query1 to query2?
I have a report that can be used for 3 different queries. I've been trying for the last hour or so to get three different buttons on a form to open this report but give it an appropriate record source.
I figured there's got to be a way that's easier than three queries, and three reports...?
I was trying to use the same format as with forms :
[Reports]![rptReportName].recordsource = "qryQueryName"
or variations of that. Am I way off? It keeps saying that I've misspelled the name or it doesn't exist.
Hi,
I want to write Visual Basic language in the form with one button:
I have one form named "setForm" with one button and one text box:
Let's set the new table "frm2", the new form "frm2"
Dim sql As String
sql = "SELECT [model].* INTO frm2 FROM [model]"
CurrentDb.Execute sql
DoCmd.CopyObject CurrentDb.Name, "frm2", acForm, "frm1"
Forms!frm2.RecordSource = "frm2"
The last statement code doesn't work: It is said that Microsoft Access cannot find the form "frm2" referred to in a macro expression or visual basic code.
How can I change the recordsource? Thanks.
I have a form that is based on a query. I would like to change the form's RecordSource to another query using SetValue in a Macro.
Under Action Arguments I have
Item: Forms![Receiving Query subform].RecordSource
But I don't know what to put for an expression. I would like to use the same form but base the RecordSource on a query called "Receiving Search by Date". :eek:

Good afternoon
I have been helped out so many times in the past here I thought I would try my luck again.
Is it possible with the use of option buttons to change the row source of a listbox?
I want to use the listbox for a search criteria and thought it might be easier to have 1 listbox been updated from the choices made using a group of buttons.
I would like like the row source to be based on different tables maybe I might need to use queries.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
How do i make my subfrm record source switch to another saved query (qryPendingStatus) when it's opened from the form.
Heres what i am trying to accomplish:
I have a subfrm that i'd like to use to display info in 2 different forms.
There's a form currently for All statuses. Then another new one for Pending status. I'd like to use the same subform for this pending status form also, and in doing that my qryAllStatuses, but change to qryPendingStatus on the subfrm when i open the mainfrom.
This is on the open even ofthe mainform, but does not work (says method not founds...so obviouly i can't use ".Recordsource" here:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.subfrmJobInfo.RecordSource = "qryPendingStatus"
End Sub
How can i make this happen?
Hi everybody,
I have a form with its tabbed subforms' recordsource determined by the code:
Private Sub childTvl_Enter()
Me.childTvl.Form.RecordSource = "SELECT * FROM tblTvlInput WHERE tblTvlInput.Dept = """ & Forms.frmBudget.txtDept & """"
End Sub
This is to filter the huge data by department and only allowing the specified department to view their code. However, I find it slow and pesky as it only shows the required information when the user clicks on the child. I have tried putting the code above elsewhere but to no avail.
Is there a better way of speeding the filter as well as showing the user his own records when he clicks on the tab?
Thanks in advance. =)
You guys here are saviours!
Weird yet aggravating problem.
I am trying to setup a routine that will allow the user to change the RecordSource of a subform. The RecordSource is being changed yet once I move to another record the subform is reverting back to the original subform RecordSource. I am using the below command to change the subforms RecordSource...
Me.MySubformName.Form.RecordSource = MySQL
I even to make a copy of the subform and I changed the table it is linked to yet I got the same result
Me.MySubformName.SourceObject = "MyOtherSubForm"
There are no functions in the record selectors that would interfere with the subforms RecordSource.
Any suggestions as to why the RecordSource of my subform will not "stick" when I move to another record?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Hi
I have problems working with a 3 level form
I have one main form called Projects
Depending on the record on the form Projects, the subform called Products will display the correct info
And on the OnCurrent event of the form Products, it will display the correct info for another subform called Product_Info
The problem is, the subform called Product_Info is dependant on a field on the Projects form, and on a field on the Products form so I cannot directly link the Product_Info form with either the Projects of Products form
What I'm doing is changing the recordsource of the Product_Info subform on the OnCurrent event of the Products subform but for some reason it won't work
If I display the recordsource of the Product_Info subform, it displays the right recordsource triggered on the OnCurrent event of the Products subform, but the data doesn't display
Thanks
Hello,
I have a dropdown menu which has a lisrt of dates (mmm yyyy), and when one is selected it updates 2 boxes with 01/mm/yyyy and 30 or 31/mmm/yyyy
Private Sub cmbDate_AfterUpdate()
Me.frmData.Form.RecordSource = "SELECT * FROM qry_NatxReg WHERE [Company Name]='" & cmbCompanyName & "' AND [Time of Attempt 1] BETWEEN #" & txtDateFrom & "# AND #" & txtDateTo & "#"
Me.frmData.Form.Requery
End Sub
When i choose June, it works fine and gets all the june dates from [Time Attempt 1]
But when i Choose July, it includes June.
I only have data for June and July as it's still in testing.
I can't wrap my head round it!!
Another one I'm struggling with.
I have a mainform and a subform. What I want to achive is :
click on a lable (lab1) in the mainform and set the recordsource ( query1 ) in the subform to display relevant data.
Click on a lable ( lab2) in the mainform and set the recordsouce (query2) having different data than query1 in the subform.
Hope this make sense.
How would I do this.
I have a main form with a control that can take one of three values. And I would like to add a subform that work as follows.
Selecting each value should change what the subform displays like this.
Control Subform
A Select * from TableA where Key = "A"
B Select * from TableB where Key = "B"
C Disable subform somehow because it doesn't apply
Could someone please provide some advice on how I could do this.
Thanks

A user recently made a change to a table in an Access 2000 db (I know, but I’m a volunteer and the org’s a nonprofit that insisted on access to the tables, etc). First he copied the table and renamed it ("basicdata--orig"), then made the change to the copy and gave it the name of the original table ("basicdata"). This table is filled by entries in a form that also has several subforms that create records in linked tables.
Data entered into the main entry form are correctly inserted in the new table ("basicdata"). Data entered in the SUBforms, however, now cause an error stating that the data cannot be saved because no corresponding record exists in "basicdata--orig" (the table that was replaced). Apparently, the main form retained the linkage to the table NAME "basicdata", but the subforms somehow followed the original table's NAME CHANGE and are now looking to it for the corresponding records. Of course, the records are not there.
1) I'd like to understand just what went on here and 2) I cannot find any refence to "basicdata--orig" in the properties of the subforms so I don't know what to change to correct the problem. I realize I could correct it by switching the table names back again, but that action would necessitate some reentry of data that I'd like to avoid.
I know this is probably as clear as mud, but if anyone has followed it and has some answers, I'd sure appreciate hearing them. Thanks!
I have a subform embedded in a mainform which contains loan payment details over a number of months. The record starts with the payment period number ie 1,2,3 etc. The problem is that every now and again the subform changes the display order of the records so that I get 4,5,6,1,2,3.
When I look at the underlying table the order is OK as is the non embedded sub form. I cannot see any reason for the change and it only happens randomly (apparently).
The numbers are not autonumbering but manually input.
Hope someone can help please.
Greetings! This forum has been most helpful to a rusty Access user.
I'm creating a student group score entry form, having problems with creating the form I want. Say for example we have the following:
1. Three groups: A,B, and C.
2. Group A has 5 students, Group B has 3, and Group C has 20.
I want a form where I can select group A, and a list of the students will populate and enable me to enter scores for all of them on the same page. This will save time not having to re-enter the information for so many students. If anyone has a clue of what I'm talking about or is willing to lend me aid, I would appreciate it.
Cheers.
I have a Form with some combo box's in header and a TabControl with 5 tabs in Body.
In each Tab I have a subform. All is working as should.. each form is requerying perfectly based on user combo choices.
What I would now like to do is swap one subform in one tab for another subform, depending on what choice is made in combo box.
That is...
Combo choice 1 ... requires Subform's 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5 in Tab's 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5 ..
Combo choice 2 though... requires Subforms's 1, 2, 6, 7, & 8 in same Tabs. .. Tab's are umbrella's for multitude of subform possibilities.
I really need some guidence here. Thanks.
I'm working on a purchasing database where if the user checks a box on a subform, another field needs to be disabled. The code works, but since this is a continuous subform, it disables that field on every row. Is there any way to make it stick to the row the user is working on?
Here's the code:
If Me!acs_puchase = -1 Then
Me!inventory_po.Enabled = False
ElseIf Me!acs_puchase = 0 Then
Me!inventory_po.Enabled = True
End If
Thank you!
I have a mainform with a listbox and a subform sitting in the mainform. The default view of mainform is single. The listbox displays a list of people. When the user clicks on a row of the listbox the subform shows detailed data about that person. The layout of the subform covers almost half of the area of the mainform. It works except that the subform automatically takes table view as if there were many records to display although it displays only the selected record. This automatic manipulation of the default view does not look good at all.
View 12 Replies View RelatedI had a subform to enter payments. It worked well. The master and child fields linked well and all the necessary data appended to a new record in the payments table.
Now to make it more user friendly, I changed the subform to a popup form (The 2 forms took up too much real estate on the screen).I deleted the payments subform and created a command button to open the payments form as a popup.
I need 3 fields on the payments form to be populated from the edit sponsor form (sponsorID, MemberID, SponsorTypeID) and then payment details to be entered and posted to a new record in the payments table.Since I've changed the payment form from a subform to a popup form, the master/child relationships are gone and the 3 fields I need for the payment record no longer appear.
I have been using AYS2000 database example from Rogers access library. I have been in the process of modifying to meet my needs. Although I have run into a problem that was prevalent in the original database example. I have attached the original database for your reference.
Problem: At the bottom of the database beside the "New Response" button there are 2 combo boxes that allow you to select the survey and response in which you want to view in the subform. Although when selecting the response the subform does not always update the record in the subform. It would appear that the problem occurs only after a response has been previously selected. I have tried adding additional code to refresh and requery the subform already without any success.
Is it possible for an image control to change to a different picture on a form when focus changes to a different record on a subform? I am developing a simple database to record my ever growing collection of TV shows. The form that I use to view my TV show records has an image control on it, I previously had a single image for the entire series (box art for first season). I now want that image control to change to a different picture when the focus changes to a different record on the subform. i.e. when the focus changes from the first season on the subform to the second season; the picture on the main form changes with it.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am currently developing a crude Contact manager database and need a quick way of entering data into a selection of records (around 1000 at a time). At the moment I am manually going through all records and changing the "DateLastEmail" field manually, which can be very tiring.
Any way to assign a button to change the field for all records to today's date or something of the like.
Currently I have a form which filters my subform. The subform resides as a seperate query and when the "Apply Filter" button is pressed it requeries with a change of .filter property, so I guess that all that needs to be done is to change all records that exist within the query, but I am stuck on a way to do this without manually entering it.
As the unbound parent list box record selection is changed, I want the sub form to refresh. Do I put code in the Subform Current Record event?
Master Form Name: frmsr_NewWellEntry
Unbound Listbox - when record selected the primary key populates txtNavWellID (unbound) on parent form
subform Container fsubsrNavSHLBHL Link Master Fields =Forms![frmsr_NewWellEntry].[txtNavWellID]
The read-only form in the subform Record Source is something like: select * from vsrNavigatorSHLBHL where Well_ID =90243..Key The Form used as the subform above will be re-used in multiple parent forms. The parent form data is form SQL Server, the subform from Oracle.
I have a form with a subform where I want to select (via button) which format to open the form in. Opening the form is simple, DoCmd.OpenForm (FormName),acFormDS to open in datasheet, however, the subform opens in default view (single form). Can you programmatically set the property on the subform to change the Default View from Single Form to Datasheet and back?
View 3 Replies View RelatedAll. using 2010. I have a form and a subform. my master and child links are set but when I scroll thru my form; my subform does not change to show the matching records. I do have an unbound search field for the same field as the master and child links. When I type in the search field for a record; the subform does change to that particular record. Do you think that has anything to do with it?
