Coding Command Button To Add A Few New Records To A Table
Nov 2, 2006
I have 2 tables, one has a list of comments indexed by numbers.
The second table will be populated with numbers that correspond to the first table based on usage of the form that I'm about to describe.
The form contains several check boxes. Each corresponds to a comment from the first table. If 3 of the check boxes are selected when the command button is pressed, I want three separate new record entries to go into the second table and the data that I want entered is the text in the label that is next to each check box on the form. After the records are added to the table, I'd like to reset the check boxes.
I simply cannot figure out how to code the button to do this.

I have two tables, one is GENETIC and the other one is BoneSampleDNAprofile. Both tables have the field CY-Code. I want to create small form with 2 text box fields and one command button on the form to be able to insert CY-Code from the table GENETIC to designated DNA_LAB_Code in the table BoneSampleDNAprofile.
In that small form I would type DNA_LAB_Code and CY-Code where after pressing command button will insert CY-Code for the designated DNA_LAB_Code. This is continuous process after our Laboratory receive results from DNA laboratory. I have attached two .png files which are example of two tables.

I have an initial start up page where someone in any division can go and select their division from a combo box. What I want them then to be able to do is click one of the forms (New Entry,Edit Entry,.....).
For the form New entry I am looking to open the form with the division name to filled into a text box. I also would like to have that box that box also correspond to a field in a the table for a new entry.

I have a subform where you can add multiple records. i have a command button labelled NEXT (which obviously navigates to the next record) but I only want this to be enabled when there is more than one record.
I am OK on the enabling bit but how do you specify if the record number >1?
Does someone have time to start me off on some code?

Is it possible to use a command button (update) to update matching records in a form (Test)? I have a file (april.xlsx) in which the first column Cytogenetics ID (14-xxxx) is a unique identifier that matches a record in the database. The next column Result (NL-F, NL-M, F-VUS, M-VUS, A-M, A-F) and the date column next to it are what need to be updated in that record. In the database there is a field called Result that needs to be updated with
the text from column 2:
NL-F and NL-M = Normal
VUS-F and VUS-M = Variant of Unknown Sig.
A-M and A-F = Abnormal
There is also a Final TAT Date field in the database that needs to be updated with column 3 in the spreadsheet (Final TAT Date).So basically when there is a match with column 1 in april.txt to a record in the database, the Result field in the database is updated with column 2 of april.txt and the Final TAT Date field in the database is updated with column 3 of april.txt.
Cytogenetics ID Result Final TAT Date
14-0390 Normal 4/11/2014
14-0396 Variant of Unknown Sig 4/18/2014

I am trying to create a command button that will delete the current records in both the subform and main form.
I know how to create a command button that will delete the current record of which ever form I'm in (either the sub or main form) but I wish to do so both at the same time with one event procedure. I currently have been experimenting with a button in the subform but I don't really care if it's in the subform or main form.

I have a tabbed form in a navigation form with a chart on it. The records source of the chart is a query. The query runs when you click the tab and takes a long time. I changed the Row Source of chart to "" and that eliminates the query running on form load. I've read many posts on changing that row source when a command button is clicked. I tried
Code:
Me!Suspend_Trending_Dashboard![chart].RecordSource = suspend_trend_CHART
in the onclick event of the command button. This doesn't work. I've tried many variations of the syntax. I don't know if I have to tell the query to run after the row source is changed.
On a side note, the query criteria is based on beginning and end dates entered into text boxes on the form. This all works if the query loads when the form is opened.

I have created inventory databases for both my job and personal use. I do not understand coding. I either need a good hand-holding with simple, detailed instructions or I need to hire a code person.
A button in my form that can be coded to ... When clicked ...
___ open a browse window of hard drives,
___ allow user to choose any single image for selection,
___ copy & paste selected image's location to a table field.
NOTE: Table field will be used to connect to image place holder on form with control source to make the image seen.

I'm looking for someone to help me with a solution to my problem of importing data into a data table.
What I'd like to do is have a command button on a form. When this button is clicked the records in a table are cleared out. Then I'd like for a browse window to come up to locate an Excel file. The user would select this file and the data would be imported into the data table that was just cleared.
Can this be done without too much trouble?
Thanks, Paul

I have created a form and need to be able to delete employees from a table. I built a command button using the wizard and this is the current vb code-
Code:
Private Sub cmdDeleteEmployee_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdDeleteEmployee_Click
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectRecord
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord
Exit_cmdDeleteEmployee_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdDeleteEmployee_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdDeleteEmployee_Click
End Sub
But when I click on the button I get a message saying it would create duplicate data in the table.

I am rewriting an old Access 2003 database in Access 2010. When creating new command buttons, the current theme gives them a default appearance. I need to apply this appearance to old command buttons. I know there is a way to select the default button and apply its properties to others quickly. I have done it before but didn't write the process down .

I have created a database for a church cemetery. It contains the usual names, birthrates deaths, etc.... I have also created a map of the cemetery in PDF format with the lot number highlighted which is assigned to a particular record. I did the same in excel with a layout of the lot and a JPEG picture of the grave marker. In my table I created Three columns - Site Plan, Lot Plan, and Grave marker. I insert the specific site plan, lot plan, and jpeg picture using the "insert object" in the table. On my form after a search, I have created three buttons.. Site Plan, Lot Plan & Grave Marker.
I have looked and experimented trying to assign these command buttons to open these files on the form. I don't have any experience with macros or VB code.

I have created a web-database (? - There are globes over all the forms and tables icons) based on the Issues & Tasks template. This means that most of the data is entered and seen on the "Main" form, which has two tabs - Open Issues and Closed Issues. I have created a form that allows people at my work to input the necessary data and save it, so that it will show up on one of the two tabs. However, once a record has been created, I want to be initially locked if the ID/PK is clicked, so that data can't be changed or entered inadvertently.
SO, I changed the code so that when the ID/PK for a record is clicked, it brings up a different form, but one that looks exactly like the one that is brought up when entering a new form, but I locked all of the fields so that the information cannot be changed. It seems from what I have read that I can create a button on this form so that when clicked, it unlocks the fields on the form so that they can be changed, and then when clicked again it will lock the fields again. Is this true? If so, how can I do it? Or is there something similar I can do? I have seen codes that I could copy and paste, but I cannot figure out the place to copy and paste codes in Access 2010.
I have changed the Form properties so that Data Entry and all the "Allows" are set to No...

Hi, I have got a small problem and maybe someone could advise me.
I am creating a customised command button from a label button. The new button works fine but I can't apply the 'requery' function to it, if i do an error occures and i am being prompt to save the data first???? :confused: :
Private Sub Labelsearch_Click()
Me!itemquery.Requery
End Sub
Private Sub Labelsearch_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Me.Labelsearch.SpecialEffect = 2
Me.Labelsearch.BackColor = 255
Me.Labelsearch.ForeColor = 10092543
Me.Labelsearch.FontItalic = True
Me.Labelsearch.FontBold = True
End Sub
Private Sub Labelsearch_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Me.Labelsearch.ForeColor = 255
Me.Labelsearch.FontItalic = False
Me.Labelsearch.FontBold = True
End Sub
Private Sub Labelsearch_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
'Come back to initial state when button release'
Me.Labelsearch.SpecialEffect = 1
Me.Labelsearch.BackColor = 16373685
Me.Labelsearch.ForeColor = 8388608
Me.Labelsearch.FontItalic = False
Me.Labelsearch.FontBold = True
End
If I create a command button with the wizard and assign the code :
me!itemquery.Requeryto the on_click event my form is working fine.
Why is his code is not working if I assign it to a label? :o

I have currently been given a task to re-work some current coding within Access. This is well above my understanding of Access and was hoping to get a little assistance with some simple coding language.
The database I am manipulating has data collected from tourists about their destinations and origins.
I wish to create 2 tables based on a current table. One table will be short trips (trip length <= 150km) and the other long trips (trip length < 150kms)
I wish for these tables to be created from a table of raw data upon the click of a button (GUI interface).
If you are puzzled by my question. I'll try to make it simplier by asking:
1. what line of code will create a new table overriding old
2. what type of code is required to create this table with specific column headings?
3. How do I import information from current available tables with the condition: 'Row Y' is > X

I have a FrmCadastro which updates my master table TblCadastro. Primary key of the TblCadastro is an auto numbered field named CADID.Fields CPF, NAME, FIN, NAT, TIP, MOT, and INSTREQ of the FrmCadastro are mandatory. My rule is that If any of these fields is null then the record cannot be saved (cannot be added into TblCadastro).
FrmCadastro has two distinct buttons, as follows: BtSave (to save either newly included record or changed record) and BtDelete (to delete a chosen record from my master table).To delete a record has not been a problem because under the click event of the BtDelete I use the following command lines to successfully eliminate an existing record (previously saved) from the TblCadastro:Dim numRecord As Integer
numRecord = Me.CADID
Dim SQL As String
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
SQL = "DELETE * FROM tblcadastro WHERE cadid = " & numRecord
DoCmd.RunSQL SQL
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
To save a complete record (properly filled in) has not been a problem either since the code takes care of that very well.When the user is in the process of adding a new record through the FrmCadastro two different user behaviors can take place:
1. Irregular entering - The user for some reason just give up saving the record (he decides to add the new record later, for instance) by selecting the option Save = No, or
2. Incomplete record - By mistake the user try to save an incomplete record (a record that shows any mandatory field as null).
I coded the following command lines under the click event of the BtSave to take care of deleting those records... BUT it does NOT work. The system reads each line of the code, find the record properly, close the form as expected, but the incomplete record STILL REMAINS in the TblCadastro. I do not understand why, since the code is pretty much the same of the one in the BtDelete.
Code:
Private Sub bt_save_Click()
If MsgBox("The record was changed. Do you want to save it?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, Me.Caption) = vbYes Then
If MsgBox("WARNING! Incomplete record will be automatically deleted from database. If you did not fill in the fields CPF, NAME, FIN, NAT, TIP, MOT, and INSTREQ, the record will not be saved.", vbOKOnly, Me.Caption) Then
If Not IsNull(CPF) And Not IsNull(Name) And Not IsNull(FIN) And Not IsNull(NAT) And Not IsNull(TIP) And Not IsNull(MOT) And Not IsNull(INSTREQ) Then
[code]...
What should I code to exclude both the incomplete record and irregular entering thru the button Save (options Yes and No) ?

I have a table with many records, using a form with an update button click event, I would like to update ALL records where the Item in the table = the Item in the form.
There are 6 checkboxes and 6 text boxes that will need to be updated, but right now I am just trying to test if i can even change one text box to keep it simple. I have tried to start by using this:
Code:
Dim mySQL As String
Dim ItemNo As String
Dim SO As String
mySQL = "UPDATE BT200 SET Part = '" & SO & "' WHERE Item = " & ItemNo
DoCmd.RunSQL mySQL
So every time i run this command button, it gives me a prompt "You are about to update 0 row(s)". Nothing gets updated at all, I am clearly missing something vital here.

I have been working on this for awhile, and can't figure it out for the life of me!
I have a form set up with a drop down box that lets me pick from values from a table based off of the Primary Key of that table (Row Source = SELECT Order.OrderID, Order.OrderName from Order). I have a button on the form that I want to set a value (Closed) from the table entry based off of the order selected.
Pseudo code would go something like this.
Closed.Value = True Where Table.Order.OrderID = SelectedOrderID
Table.Order is a Table Named Order (obviously)
Closed is a yes/no field in my Order table
OrderID is the primarykey of the table Order
SelectedOrderID is the drop down box.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I, unfortunately, have been singled out as the Access guru in my work area. We have 223 people and the Information Manager has tasked me to modify a database he "found" to be able to track a number of things, but most important to him: performance reports.
I have posted the sample of what I currently have. What is being asked of me is a way in which to have a button or by double-clicking a block where a date would go for all other dates on the form to become non-visible while the current date stored in the computer the database is being worked from be entered in the block where the button or double-click happened. All this links to a report for the IM to be able to track what performace reports are out, and when they are due back to his section. He also wants me to be able to show which are overdue and where they are at. I am not sure if it is at all possible, but with me having spend most of last week purusing the articles on Access here, I know now that nothing is implausible if you happen to go about it the right way.
Since I have read the rules on posting, here is what I have done. I searched the forum for command button and got a lot of really cool ideas to use elsewhere in the database. I looked up the help in the program itself for command button, and got some good information on how a command button works, but I cannot make it put a date into a block. I can enter the date in any block that is a date format, but then I have dates in every block. He only wants to see the most current date in any of the blocks.
Any assistance at this point would be appreciated. If I have missed something in another thread, I apologise in advance.
