I have two fields [InReview] and [TestReviewed].I'm trying to create a filter in the Onclick event of a button like so:
Code:
Me.Filter = "InReview Is Not Null" & "TestReviewed Is Not Null"
Me.FilterOn = true
This is not working for some reason. What is the correct way to concatenate a filter in VBA?
Attached is a project I am working on. It's a personal reminder program. The problem I am having is that when I enter the actual completion date at the bottom and click on the "Complete Task" button, I want the record to be copied to the History table, then the Start Date and Due Dates reset based on the Frequency. If someone could look at the On Click event procedure for this button and help me get this fixed, I would appreciate it very much. I don't know much about VB or SQL coding.
Thanks,
Jim
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.
How can I create a "Filter Button" on a form and filter my records? I create a textbox on a form and a filter button on the right. Then I click the filter futton, the filter function will search/match the content in the box through the datasheet. And then the results of the filtering will be pop up on the split form datasheet.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI work for a company that manufactures home appliances & electronics. When those products fail within the warranty period, we are obligated to repair the units for the customers.
We have around 200 factory technicians who make those repairs. Each tech is able to make approximately 8 repairs each day. We have a dispatching system that assigns the repairs to the techs based on their availability each day. But the problem is that we have to manually enter and adjust the schedule for all 200 techs every single day, and this takes a lot of time. And of course technicians get sick, take vacation, etc, so we have to adjust the schedule so no techs will be assigned calls when they're off.
The problem: For example, currently when a technician takes off for 2 weeks, the user has to enter 14 individual records for the tech, which is somewhat time consuming. What I need is to program a button click event to determine the two dates (startDate & endDate) and append multiple records from one single entry in the form for each date in between and including the two date fields.
I know I'll probably need to create a loop that will loop through the two dates on the form and append a record for each day, so I can then cross reference the dates to the master schedule dates to make sure that no availability is opened for the techs taking time off.
I have an access form and there is a textbox in which i enter a string and have a search button so I need the onclick event procedure to search a string from my table. so how do i do it in access 2010.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI would like to make clickable labels on my form, so if the user has any questions about the field, clicking on the label would bring up a message box that would give them more information. I know how to write onclick events one by one for every label, but there are a lot of them, and I feel like there has to be a better way.
I put the label names, and the text I'd like for the message box in a table, and I'd like to have a module that will allow me to click on a label, and have the right text come up.
I've researched ways to do this and have come up with nothing. The farthest I've gotten is an array tied to the form open event that just displays all the message boxes from first to last, one after the other. I believe that's on the right track, but is not a workable solution as is. I need to be able to tie the message box to the actual label the user clicks.
Visual Studio IDE environment and I have been working with Access VBA for almost a year now.
I am very used to generating my form controls in runtime and being able to create some cool user interface interactions by being able to say btnExample.OnClick += MyDynamicClickFunction
MyDynamicClickFunction(Object sender, EventArgs e).... code
Any way to assign functions to the events of already made controls on a form. Probably during the load event?
Now I have found that there are many ways to replicate Visual Studio's features by accessing User32 and replicating them
I have a continuous subform which essentially comprises of a textbox that shows a field from a query.
The text in that box is essentially a few letters and a few numbers - what I am wondering is if I can have an on click event for the textbox, that when a user clicks the text it takes them to the record (in a different form) that matches the text contained in the textbox they clicked?
So on a command button I have this code in the OnClick event. When I click the button it will ask me to enter the name if blank but if I enter something in that field and then delete the data is bypasses this. Does the same reason field, Why?
Code:
If IsNull(Me.CE) Then
MsgBox "Please enter your name"
Me.CE.SetFocus
Exit Sub
[Code] ....
I tried to dynamically set image OnClick property to function with couple of attributes. Everything works well, but... it launches the function automatically without any mouse click! What is causing this? I want to execute the function only on the result of mouse click.
Piece of code:
Forms!Form1.Controls("Image" & i).OnClick = fclick(PiltID)
Private Function fclick(u)
DoCmd.OpenForm "Form2"
Forms!Form2.Image0.Picture = u
End Function
I have a table that holds the SQL texts for ca. 1000 Select queries (mostly minor variants that are used to programmatically swap out RowSource strings for combo boxes). I'd like to have a quick and easy way to open/review/modify these queries.
One strategy would be to display the SQL strings in a field on a Datasheet form, then use an onClick event on a text box linked to the SQL-holding field (or perhaps an onClick event tied to an unbound text box on the form) to open the associated query. That would allow me to view the SQL of the query that I want to open, allow me to quickly scroll through the list of stored SQL texts, and give me options for sorting or limiting the SQL-texts displayed in the datasheet form.
But, I can't seem to get the onClick event to work. The problem seems to be that I can't figure out how to pass the SQL string contained in the field to a function that will use that string to open the query .
I am try to open a form from another and set a button's OnClick properties to a function and I keep getting an error message..Run-Time Error 2450Cannot find the referenced form ..And this is the code I am using.
Case 113
DoCmd.OpenForm "frm_View_Defects_On_Screen", acNormal
Forms!frm_View_Defects_On_Screen.RecordSource = "qry_1st_Adv_Report_Combination_111"
Forms!frm_View_Defects_On_Screen.btn_Back_to_repor ts.OnClick = JumpBackToAdvancedReport()
I just don't want to create another form just for one button.
I am working on a database which has two tables used as part of a registration and login process.
I would like a couple of fields from table one to automatically update in table two, once the fields in table one are populated without using an 'on click' event.
The reason I would prefer not to use an onclick is because the completion of the form used to generate the users table does not require any buttons for the data to save.
I have a continuous form based on table "INCOMES" that shows all the payments received, which mediums can be (field "PMNT_MEDIUM"):
- check
- transfer
- taxes
- cash
Table "INCOMES" is filled using another form, but in this particular form I just want to show "check", "transfer" and "cash" (not "taxes") so that I can track all the cash incomes.
Note: taxes are loaded because they appear in my invoices and I need them there to reach the invoice total amount.So my form has a search bar which allows me to search by PMNT_MEDIUM listing all "checks", all "cash" or all "transfer". I can also search by payment number (meaning: check number). To that end I have a "search" button that applies the filter. And I have another button that "cleans" the filtering by "putting a "" in the search-bar and then calling the "on click" of the search button".
What I need is, no matter if I click over the "search" or "clean" button, it NEVER shows me the "taxes".Search button, on click code:
If IsNumeric(Me.busq_chq_med) Then
Me.Filter = "[PMNT_MEDIUM_NUMB] =" & Me.SEARCH_BAR
Else
Me.Filter = "[PMNT_MEDIUM] like'" & Me.SEARCH_BAR & "*'"
Me.Filter = "[PMNT_MEDIUM] like'" & Me.SEARCH_BAR & "*' or [INVOICE] like'" & Me.SEARCH_BAR & "*'"
End If
Me.FilterOn = True
Clean filter button, on click code:
[SEARCH_BAR] = ""
Call [Search button]_click
Me.Filter = "[PMNT_MEDIUM] like'" & Me.SEARCH_BAR & "*'"
Me.FilterOn = True
I have placed a filter button on a form as a filter and written the following on-click event procedure:
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdApplyFilterSort
Me.Filter = "ACCOUNT_DO_NOT_EMAIL = 'HS'"
Me.FilterOn = True
When I click the filter button I get a blank message box titled 'Microsoft Access" and an OK button, when closed the filter works perfectly.I have checked this procedure in other forms and it works without showing the blank message box.The only difference with this form is that its control source is a union query.
I created a database and I manage to split it into front end and backend. now I'm going to make an EXE of the front end.My question is when I open the front end, I need the database to be empty, and them create a button that will make the user select which project he wants to open (backend).I also need to create a button that will create a new empty backend and save it as a new project.

using a method ive just learnt ;) thanx pat and rv the user can choose a company and a staff member for each job. the relevant id is placed in the job fields and thats all good.
the form looks like this. http://www.cambridgeupholstery.co.uk/myform.JPG
eventually there will be many companies and many more staff members.
what i would like to happen on the form is when the user selects which company they are dealing with...only the relevant staff who work for that company are displayed in the listbox.. in other words i want to filter the staff names by the chosen companyid.
what code do i need to place and where.. my company list box is called "complist" and my staff list box is called "stafflist" and the form they are on is called "enterjob"
i hope that is clear.. thank you very much for any potential replies.
On clicking a button to open a form I want to filter a list in a combo Box located on the forms subform
The main form is called 'Frm_orders'
The sub form is called 'sub'
The combo box field is called 'CostCodeID'
and I want to filter column 0 of the combobox which is Tbl_InvoiceCostCodes.Type to show records with a type of 'Repairs'
I have a report, on a control tab, on a main form.
On the form are two buttons: one to show all items, and one to filter them based on a boolean field called showitem.
The buttons work with the code below.
What I want to do but cannot seem to figure out is to have the report default to no filter.
The bound query has no criteria.
I'm trying to set the filter property via the on open or on load event and even if I isolate the report, cannot seem to reach it.
Code:
Private Sub b_hide_items_Click()
Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Report.Filter = "timeline.showItem <> 1"
Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Report.FilterOn = True
Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Requery
End Sub
Private Sub b_show_all_Click()
Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Report.Filter = "timeline.showItem = 0"
Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Report.FilterOn = False
Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Requery
End Sub
hey guys,
does anyone have any idea on how to disable a button after the event has been run? I want to give the user a few options on a form. When one is depressed i would like that option not to be available any more.
I tried forms![frmmbiinfo]![command10].enabled = false
but i guess i need to refreash the page somehow. All i keep getting is an error saying "Object doesnt support this proerty or method"
thanks in advance

Hello,
I am making updates to an existing access application created by someone else a while back. I am a programmer by trade, but have limited experience with access and VBA.
What I am trying to do is tie some controls to the autoform nav buttons so when the user is moving through records the controls will be updated with the current records information. Something along the lines of an autoform.navarrow.click event.
The information I need to display comes from various other tables with one to many relationships. Not sure if this is the best way to go about handling this.
Would it be better to recreate the autoform based off of a query that does a join of the necessary tables? Think a customer table, items table and a purchases table(customer.id, item.id, date, quantity etc...)
Two other questions
1. Is there an event for tabs similar to onclick? So when I am clicking through tabs it will fire off an event.
2. I would like to fire off an event based on the current record in the autoform, how do I get that event to fire off when the form loads? I tried in form_load but it won't work. I am assuming because I am tying into the records ID, which isn't available until after the form loads.
Thanks,
Hello All,
I am using a timer function to hopefully calulate have long a call has lasted, I have setup a rolling clock called "ElapsedTime" and i have the start time running off the P.C. Time this is called "txt_Start", this works fine no issues.
Now comes the fun bit i have a button called "cmd_Finish", i wish the time to be calulated and the total time to be placed in a text box called "txt_Finish" sound easy but nope this would apear not to be.
The Following Setup is used:-
ElapsedTime = "00:00:00"
txt_Start = Time(), formated to LongTime
txt_Finish = Formated to Long Time
Example of what i would like to happen
txt_Start = 10:40:02
ElapsedTime = 00:00:11
txt_Finish = 10:40:13
I have tried the following Code:
*********************************************
Private Sub Command5_Click()
Me.txt_Finish = ([ElapsedTime] + [txt_Start])
End Sub

Can anybody help me on this please.

Hello All,
I was wondering if there is a way to disable a command button after it has been clicked for a small period of time. (lets say 1 second) stopping the user from any happy clicking. (fast repetitive clicks)
This is to do with viewing embedded images, i can explain more if required.
Thanks, Aaron
Can someone give me a jump start with code for changing forecolor...
On one form (form 1) I have a command button (cmd34) which has its text in Black (forecolor 335543)
On another form (form 2) I have a checkbox (chk45)
When the check box is checked I want the text on the command button to change to red (forelolor 255).
1. Where do i put the code? On the second form (On Close) or on the first form (On Open) or ???
2. Is the code something like
If me.chk45=true then
Cmd45.forecolor=255
Or am i just making that far too simplistic?
I have a continuous form with a button 'Cmd1' & a textbox 'txtMail' which is set to visible no.
When the user clicks Cmd1 - then txtMail becomes visible.
I can do it using vba on the buttons click event but when it executes txtMail for all the records become visible.
How do I use a button's click event on the form's current record - Private Sub Form_Current() so that when the user clicks Cmd1 on the current record only txtMail for that record becomes visible.
I'm using Access 2007.
