Continuous Form With Unbound Check Box?
Jul 7, 2005
hi guys, i have a continuous form with a check box and a button on each record's row.
now if i dont bind the check box to a control source when you tick it, it gets ticked for each record, i am using the tick box to pass a state to the button ( uses an if statement ) so that it will done different things if it is ticked when the button is pressed.
can anyone help me to get this to work without having to bind the check box to a control source?
best regards

Working with Access 2000
I have a Continuous subform based on a query based on few linked tables.One of those tables has a Yes/No field which shows in the subform.
I want to be able to change the status of this field for each record independently, so I placed an unbound check box in the subform Detail section and a Command button on the subform Header section. However when I click one record check box, all of them change, I did not expect that. How do I move forward to get this done?

I have a continuous form with a number of unbound fields and bound fields. However, I would like to sum an unbound fields (Text28). Text28 is an unbound calculated field based on another calculated unbound field (Text22). I would like to sum Text28 in the footer or somewhere in the form.
Here are the codes for my field:
Code:
Text28 = iff([Text22>0], [Text22], [Text20] --- This works
Text29 =sum(iff([Text22>0], [Text22], [Text20]) --- this is not working
and it did not work.

I found a few regarding continuous form data but its not the sample that fits.
Attached here is my screen shot and my accdb file (MSAccess 2013)
How do they populate unbound continuous form from msaccess connecting to mysql server.
It should display 5 data but in my case it does show only one data.

Hi,
I want to show some text from another table based on the values of the bound fields in each record of a continuous form. I thought it would be easy, but I can't get it to work.
I step through the records in the bound recordset and use some of the values to query another table. Then I use the value from the query to populate the unbound text field.
It works fine for each record. But every time the unbound field is updated, all the records in the continuous form are updated.
I'm stuck on this one. It's probably something simple to fix - if you know what to do!
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks!
-Daniel

I have a continous form that contains text boxes, combo boxes and a check box. Upon clicking the check box, I have added code to disable the text and combo boxes on the corresponding row. However, when I click the check box, all rows are disabled (which is want I don't want).
Is there any way to only have the row, where the check box is checked, to be disable, and none of the other rows (where the check box is not checked)?

I have a continuous form with a text field that says "Select". There are two other fields, one of which is Brand. When the Brand Combo box has nothing in it I want the text box to appear (instructing the user to select a Brand) But once the user selects a Brand and goes to the next records, I would like the "Select" in only that record to become not visible. I tried conditional formatting but can't apply that to an unbound control ( or at least it is grayed out when I select the text box) and any other possible solutions I have found changes all of the selects - not only the one in the changed record.

I have a continuous form in my database that depending on the criteria used will display any number of records. Each record has a check box so the user can select a record for printing. Quite often the user wants to select all of the checkboxes.
Is there a way to do that in vba off of a command button.

how do you make them?
i've just started going through all of my forms and making them unbound, as the people i'm creating this program for are far too stupid to create good data with bound forms. a few of my forms, however, contain continuous subforms. how do i get the records to show up for them? it's actually about three levels deep, but i'm sure i can figure out how to take care of that once i hear the concept (customer form > job form > job details [continuous subform]).
thanks guys
added after i saw there's another post on this subject: sorry about the double post on the subject. i looked at the other post on this, though, and was not convinced on how to do it. i understand they're a pain in the buttocks, but these people are REALLY stupid. on second thought, is there any way to have a BOUND continuous subform from an UNBOUND form? for instance, when the user selects the record and it is brought up in the form, the bound continuous form pulls up the records based on the ID's and whatnot? will this work? thanks

From another forum, I found a way to kind of sort of use an unbound continuous form.
Create the form with no recordsource.
But create the textboxes with a recordsource of the field name where the data is going to come from.
in Form_Load you open a recordset, then set me.form.recordset = rs.
The form is not actually bound to the table or query, but to a copy of the records in the recordset. It is read-only.
To get around it being read-only I want the user to click on the field they want to change. This opens up a editable text box where they can change the text. I then do an update sql to update the source table.
But the recordset still shows the old value. So I have tried to do a me.form.requery. The first time it appears to work. The form has the updated value, but more often than not, all the records after the first seem to be dead, the click event does nothing.
If I had edited the first record, more often than not, all the fields in all the records will say "#Name?"
Any ideas what is happening?
Thanks,
David

Hello,
Please see the attached images (screen shots from my db).
I'll start by explaining the function of this form. Invoices are raised through a different area of the system - they then appear in the outstanding invoice list in my payment processing screen while awaiting payment. When a payment is received the user creates a payment using the controls at the top of the form. When created - payments will appear in a list box at the bottom of the screen. I then want the user to be able to highlight a payment from the list and type the amount to allocate against each line in the outstanding invoices subform. Then (once happy with the allocation) press the "Allocate" button which will cycle through the allocations the user has made inserting rows into my Transaction table - allocating the payment against multiple invoices.
The fields displayed in the outstanding invoices subform are selected in a query which calculates the amount still outstanding. In trying to illustrate my aim I've added an unbound text box to the subform (the column Allocate). What I'd like to be able to do is type a different amount against each outstanding invoice. I understand this is not the way that unbound controls work in continuous forms - i.e. that they are multiple instances of the same control hence when I type 100 against the first item in the list it appears against every item in the list. I can't use a bound control because the query is not updateable - and in any case, the entry won’t exist in the transaction table until it has been inserted anyway.
I'm pretty competent with Access and VBA but haven't really explored recordsets - I'm usually able to achieve what I want by binding my forms to stored queries. This, however, is a bit more of a complex problem than I'm used to dealing with.
So, to the point then. I guess my first question is - is it possible to achieve this? I'm sure it must be. If so please can someone try to shed some light?
Secondly, I have an idea but have absolutely no idea of how to implement it. I seems to me what I would need to do is build a temporary recordset for the form and add a field to it i.e. the "Allocate" field I've been talking about. The user would then be able to manipulate this recordset because the form wouldn't be directly accessing a query. Nor would there be any unbound controls on the form. Once the user had typed in all of the allocation figures they are happy with they would be stored in my temp recordset. They could then hit the "Allocate" button which would cycle through the recordset inserting rows into my Transaction table (as long as various validation rules were passed).
Does this sound possible? If so can anyone give me any help or point me in the direction of any material they know of that might be of any help?
Thanks in advance for your help.
To give a flavour of how I originally built this form I've attached another image - PaymentProcessingOld.gif. It's a similar kind of setup. Payments are created at the top of the screen and appear in the list box bottom left. The outstanding invoice subform serves only as a point of reference. The user actually allocates payments by selecting the item from a combo box and typing the amount. This builds the transaction I've talked about above. It's quite straight forward when there are only a few payments and allocations, but in practice payments are usually large and split across up to 100 different invoice lines. That makes it a very tedious task.

I have a report that generates an in-house physical invoice for an event. On this report is a small section for a staff member to make hand written notes regarding when we call a week before the event as a final confirmation.
I want to have an empty check box in this section for the person to put a hand-written check. I tried creating an unbound check box in the report but it defaults to the gray fill of a null valued check box when printed.I tried setting it's default value in the report to 0 but for some reason I can't find a Default Value field among it's properties in the Property side bar. I did some research and thought that setting the Triple State value to No would solve this issue but it didn't.
How I can get rid of the gray fill when the report is printed? The field is completely unbound--this check box is purely for hand written notes, it has nothing to do with the database itself.

What I am trying to do is put a subform within a subform. The trouble is I want both forms to be continuous forms.
when I put the subform within a subform, access comes up with the following message:
************************************************** ********************
A form with a subform object cannot have its DefaultView set to Continuous forms.
You tried to add a subform to a form in design view.
MSAcess will reset the property to Single Form.
************************************************** *********************
which it does my higher level form becomes a form only showing single records at a time whilst the subform is a continuous form.
does anyone know of a way around this?
what about Access2003 does it allow this?
help much appreciated.

I want to use buttons on a form to change the sort order on a continuous form. In the buttons click event I am using a public function (named Sort_1) to change the sort order. The first element of the event call is the name of a generic query (named Sort_1_Query1) and the query field to sort (LAST_NAME OR FRIST_NAME, depending on the button.)This is the Click Statement.
=Sort_1("Sort_1_Query1","LAST_NAME")
This is the Public Function
Public Function Sort_1(SortName As String, FieldName1 As String)
DoCmd.ApplyFilter SortName, FieldName1 & "between 'A' and 'Z'"
End Function
I think the problem is in the use of quotation marks or trying to pass the query field name to the Do Command or the use of an ampersand.

I have a continuous form in which I put a command button for each record called "detail". I would like to click on the "detail" button and make it open another form containing all (and only) the info on this record.
At first I refused to use an "id" to link both forms, but finally I added the "id" in the table... however still does not work.
continuous form: "04 - GASTOS_BUSQUEDA"
id field on continuous form: "Gastid"
pop-up (details) form: "GASTOS_EDITAR"
id on pop-up (details) form: "editar_id"
This is what I have tried on the "click" properties of the "details" button field (called "btn_editgs"):
1)
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", acNormal, , "[editar_id] = " & Me.Gastid
2)
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , "[editar_id]=" & Me.Gastid
3)
stLinkCriteria = "[editar_id]=" & Me![Gastid]
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , stLinkCriteria
4)
Private Sub btn_editgs_Click()
On Error GoTo btn_editgs_Click_Err
Dim strWhere As String
strWhere = "[editar_id] = " & Me.Gastid
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , strWhere
btn_editgs_Click_Exit:
Exit Sub
btn_editgs_Click_Err:
MsgBox Error$
Resume btn_editgs_Click_Exit
End Sub

Unbound Form
I have a onclick tied to a label (for decoration purposes) that when clicked it launches VBA that essentially updates a form. All that part works except it will not recognize any changed value of the field I was last in?
Just to try to explain best as I can what happens.
- Form gets opened
- I change field (quantity field)
- I click the Label
- It reverts to pre-existing value.
if I click off of the text field first then do the onclick - it recognizes just fine.

I have a continuous form bound to a recordset that has the following fields:
- Ignore: Boolean
- OverTime: Boolean
- AnnualLeave:Boolean
-ExtraValue: Double
The Ignore, OverTime, AnnualLeave fields are bound to a I, O, A checkboxes respectively in this continuous form. The ExtraValue bound to a EV textbox in this form.
What I want is that when the user check O or A checkboxes, the EV textbox is enabled only for this form record NOT all the form records, when the user check I checkbox, the EV textbox is disabled only for this from record, NOT all the form records.
The problem is that whenver the user check, all the form records EV text box is affected by this action.
Is there any way to achieve this?

The problem is that I have a recordset Rosters.
Fields are ShftDay, A, B, C
The ShftDay is distinct field.
I have continuous form mapped to this recordser.
This continuous form have 4 text boxes, each is mapped to one of the recordset fields.
The user can edit these fields.
What I want to do is when the user enter the value "Na" in one of A,B or C textbox, I want the backcolor property of this textbox to become pink.
What I face is that for example if I enter the "Na" value in the A textbox, all the cells of the A textbox are converted to pink. What I want is only the cell in the edited record, not all.
Please Help Me.
