I have a combo box with an SQL rowsource. How can I automatically select the 'next' value (through VB) within the same combo box?
Also, I will like to display a message like 'This was the last record' in case there is no 'next' value to go to.
Please let me know if i have given too little information.
Thanks a ton!
I have a form (named Example) to create reports by selecting fields from tables or queries. there is a option box (name is KynkSec) with two options (Table, Query) and a combobox named as KynkTurSec.I want to change the data source of combobox either table or query. By afterupdate, that combobox is requering the listbox "ListKynkAlan" and I can see fields of selected table or query. (That is my dream))Unfortunately I can not do that. Combobox is showing only tables or both of tables and queries. But not only query.
Here is str source of my combobox:
SELECT MsysObjects.Name, MsysObjects.Type FROM MsysObjects WHERE (((MsysObjects.Type)=1) AND ((Left$([Name],1))<>"~") AND ((Left$([Name],4))<>"Msys")) OR (((MsysObjects.Type)=5) AND ((Left$([Name],1))<>"~") AND ((Left$([Name],4))<>"Msys")) ORDER BY MsysObjects.Name; That is showing both of tables and queries.
And I wrote a code for KynkSec option box;
Private Sub KynkSec_AfterUpdate()
' Populate rowsource of KynkTurSec
Dim strSQL As String
On Error GoTo HandleErr
Select Case KynkTurSec
Case 1
strSQL = "SELECT MsysObjects.Name FROM MsysObjects" _
& WHERE(((Left$([Name], 1)) <> "~") And ((MsysObjects.Type) = 1) And ((Left$([Name], 4)) <> "Msys"))
Order BY(MsysObjects.Name)
Case 2
strSQL = "SELECT MsysObjects.Name FROM MsysObjects" _
& WHERE(((Left$([Name], 1)) <> "~") And ((MsysObjects.Type) = 5) And ((Left$([Name], 4)) <> "Msys"))
Order BY(MsysObjects.Name)
Case Else
End Select
[code]...
But this code is not working and giving a warning messsage "Sub or function is not defined"..So How can I change the source of combobox, either table or Query?
I would like to set up a picture in the form that changes based on a combobox selection, for example if you select from combo box list "design1", a picture that have a name : design1 will appear as a background to the form ..

I am trying to use a combobox called Manufacturer to select which table the combobox called Model gets it's rowsource from using the code below.
Code:
Private Sub Manufacturer_AfterUpdate()
If (Me.Manufacturer.Value = "Siemens") Then
Me.Model.RowSourceType = "Table/Query"
Me.Model.Recordset = "SeimensTable"
Me.Model.RowSource = "SELECT Model FROM SeimensTable"
Else
If (Me.Manufacturer.Value = "Samsung") Then
Me.Model.RowSourceType = "Table/Query"
Me.Model.Recordset = "SamsungTable"
Me.Model.RowSource = "SELECT Model FROM SamsungTable"
End If
End If
End Sub
But when I run the form and select Manufacturer. Combobox Model remains empty. tell me what I'm doing wrong?
How would I modify multiple comboboxes in subforms at the same time. For example.. In main form ComboboxA user selects 1992, Combobox1 in subform1 is also changed to 1992, as well as Combobox2 in subform 2.
Whats the best way to do this?
I have 2 comboboxes, the first one is called "activity", whereby I have 3 options to choose from, and the second is called "level".
When I click an "activity", for example Drawings, I want the "level" combobox to list a unique set of options for that category. and if I click on a different "activity" for example Planning, I want the "level" combobox to show a completely different set of options.
If anyone can give me any help on how to do this then I would be very grateful!!
Thanks

I've tried searching the forums and haven't found quite what i'm looking for. I would like to be able to change the source for a combobox based on another combobox. The simplest way i can summarize that is i want to be able to choose A or B, depending on my choice i want another combobox to display all the values that A or B can have.
Thanks

I'm not sure I worded that very well. :(
Hey all,
I've read some tutorials on this sort of thing, but I can't seem to piece it all together to achieve what I want.
I have a table Products that contains the fields Product, Size and Brand. I also have a form, frmProducts, that has a combobox linked to each of the fields in the Products table. I want to be able to select a product from the first combobox, tab to the Brand combobox and have only those brands associated with the product already selected.
This is how I think it should work:
1.ComboBox1 selects productA
2.ComboBox2 takes its options from a query that searches Products table for all instances of productA and displays all available brands. brandA is selected.
3.ComboBox3 get its options from another query that searches for all instances of productA that also have brandA and displays all available sizes.
What I'm having trouble with in particular is passing the data between queries. For example, I can't figure out how to tell the query to search for all instances of productA when its defined by the first combobox. Do I have to store it as a variable somewhere?
I hope I've been clear.
I just recieved a call from a customer who is having trouble with a database that I did not create for her.
She says that she modified a form in design view and saved it. Now when the database is opened using he shift key, the changes show on the form in form view. She says if she opens the database normally (without the shift key) the changes do not show on the form.
This does not make sense to me. Can anyone give me a clue as to what might be going on?
Is there any whay you can change the cursor as it moves over an object, similar to what it does with hyperlink.
I am trying to make the form more dynamic
Thanks

We use a device called a site master to test frequency levels across a system. This device stores plots onto graphs which are then downloaded onto an Access (95) database. When the plots are captured before they are put into the database they are time and date stamped among other things. When I open the Database in access I can go into the fields and physically change each of the dates. Yet when I use the site master software to open the database the Time and Date stamp appear at the bottom as the original values and not the changed values that I have assigned. Also when you right click the plots table and go to the properties. The created and modified dates have stayed as the originals. What I would like to be able to do is adjust this date. And what I would like to know is this possible??? Is it like a Windows File 'System' that is giving this date or is it a function in Access that can be changed?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHello Everyone,
I'm pulling my hair off with this situation. I have an excel file that was given to us by the payroll department of our company, but my manager doesn't like the layout in which was given to us. I've attached a sample of the file, the file has two sheets the first one is how the original file looks like and the second sheet "final look" is how my manager want the file to look.The original file is pretty big, it's for 33 different employees and it contains 93,500 rows. I think it will take forever to do this manually, any ideas would be really appreciated.
Thanks,

hello guys,
firstly thanks to all the guys here without whose help, I would not have been able to finish my database. However, there remains one question to which I havent found a satisfactory answer. I have checked through all the threads here.
I have made an .mde for my application and I want to customize my application icon to my company icon. The DB by default shows the access icon which I would like to change.
The threads here deal with issues of changing the desktop shortcut icon or changing the icon for forms. These threads do not address the problem I am facing.
I want the icon to be changed from access icon to a customized icon.
I am using MS access 97.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. If there is a thread which I may have overlooked, plz point me out.
Thanks in advance

I have set a password on my access document but now need to change it - does anyone know how to do this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI need a little help in the following topic:
There is an Access (2002) database used at our company covering its different tasks; different mdb files are used for different tasks (storage, invoicing etc.). All of them are linked to a central file that holds the tables.
Some of the users use more files; the same colleague uses for example the storage module and the service module.
I'd like to keep it this structured but I'd like to make it easier to change between the files so the user don't have to quit manually from the storage moduel and open a service module, giving his password for the tenth time per a day.
Could you help with an advice how I could do with VB that by clicking on a button the presently used file closes and another preprogrammed one opens.
(For closing I'm using DoCmd.Quit but no idea how to open something)
I really appreciate your help.

i am doing a computing project using access 2003 and vba.
i have designed 2 forms A and B, form A is where a user to logs in to my system (with four main items: username (combo box), password (textbox) and two buttons) and form B is where the user can change their password (with four items: username (username (combo box), new password (textbox) and password verify (textbox) and a button that checks everything and updates the password).
Form A has two buttons, one button can log the user into the system after typing in their correct username and password credentials, and the other button gives the option to change their password also after typing in their correct username and password credentials (and the opens up form B for the user to change their password)
My question is, when the user presses the button to open up form B, what code could i use (or methods in access) that would set the username field (in form B) the same as in form A automatically without the user having to select it again?
All help would be much appreciated
Hi, I'm in the process of making a super simple database (3 - tables). I have run into a problem with two of the tables. The relationship between them is one -> many. Say, I have a record in the (one) table which contains a primary key that is also part of a compound primary key in the (many) table.
Ex:
tblEx1 - (1 side of relationship)
red(pk)
blue
yellow
etc...
tblEx2 - (many side of relationship)
red(pk)
purple(pk)
orange
etc...
If I create a record in tblEx1 and type in some BS for the "red(pk)" field, and I then go to tblEx2, fill in all the fields, and also type in the same BS for the
"red(pk)" field, and come back at a later date, and want to change the value of the "red(pk)" field in both those tables for a certain record, it will not allow me. It doesn't matter which one I go to first. Would I have to delete the relationship everytime to be able to change the value for the "red(pk)" field in either table?
On a related question. In the above example when your doing data entry I'm not sure if I'm doing this right. It seems odd to me that I would have to type in the field for "red(pk)" in both tables, isn't their a way it can automatically figure out to put the same value from the first table into the next one since thier in a relationship.
Sorry if the above is confusing, and stupid. I'm just asking cause I did a whole bunch of records and I have to modify the name of the field which is the primary key, and I don't want to have to delete all the records and re-enter them; that would be a big time waster. Any help is appreciated.
in my assignment, I am told to change my prior query by continuing to display the sum, average, and pledge numbers. what is required, is for me to display these totals by the names of the pledges, not just a grand total. how can I sort the query by name?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAre there any tricks or formats out there that make updating a time easier. I have a date field (Formatted: short time and input mask: 00:00;0;_)
When I put in the original time it does great. When I try to change the time I have to delete the old time, go to another field then come back and put in a new time. If I do anything else it rejects and beeps (annoying) and tells me that I am not using the proper format.
Well, problem I should know how to solve! Or at least be able to find in the "search" But...... niether..... So this should be a simple one...
Have a form with a ClientID combo.... If this record is changed I want a warning message before... So I decided to do it as a function then call it on change...
Private Function ChangeClient()
Dim Msg, Style, Title, Response, MyString
Dim Cancel As Integer
Msg = "You are about to change the Client for this Project!" & Chr(13) & "Do you want to continue ?"
Style = vbYesNo + vbCritical + vbDefaultButton2
Title = "WARNING"
Response = MsgBox(Msg, Style, Title)
If Response = vbYes Then
MyString = "Yes"
ElseIf Response = vbNo Then
MyString = "No"
Cancel = True
Undo
End If
End Function
Now the problem is.... What event to call this on!?!?
It works fine on several events on a current record...
BUT... when it is a new record, and you pick the client from the dropdown, it sees a change and runs the function. That clear?
I was thinking of running a "If ... Then" statement so if it a new record the function will not be called.
Got to be an easier way to simply warn of a field change!
Ideas???
Thanks
Hoi,
When i'm select a record, i want to change the background color of all textfield in that record.
Does someone know how to do this?

I'm trying to create a database that deals with both Pounds and Euros currencies. On the form there is a field that enables the user to choose whether they want, for that particular record, to enter the information in Pounds or Euros. I was hoping to use that field's value then to change the format of each subsequent currency field in the record. For instance, if the user chose '£', then the Cost field would store £500 and the Invoice field would store £500, rather than €500. However, I am uncertain how to do this. Changing the format of a field causes the format of all records to change, which I obviously do not want. Any ideas?
Thanks and regards
