How to update unbound textbox on main form from unbound textbox in subform afterupdate.
that is when amount paid is updated it automatically updates total paid, balance etc.
Hi: There are two textboxs in my main form. One is bound and another is unbound. There is no entry in the unbound textbox as values come into automatically after entering some information in the subform. My question is how to i pass values from unbound textbox to bound textbox every time when the value change in unbound textbox i need to change the value in the bound textbox. When the form load there is already value in the bound textbox which i want to override based on the values from the unbound textbox.
Thank You.
I have a date textbox (Week_Ending) and number textbox (Staff_ID) in a form (frmHourEnter), when both have values I open another form (frmStaffReport) with textboxes (txtDateStart and cmbStaff).
How do I open the second form with the values of the first form pre-entered?
I have a database for billing. In my database, I have a form that consists of a main form "Order" and 2 subforms "OrderDetails" and "Customer" OrderDetails are to enter the products to be connected to the Order. All function super, but I want to have some information from one of the forms "copied" over to on of the others.
Here is what I would like
In the subform "OrderDetails" I have made a textbox that summarize all prices to a total, his tekstbox i called "Tekst31". I would like the amount in this textbox to appear in a field "Bel�b" in the main form "Order".
I have tried some different commands, but nothing has worked, also I have made a query which dose the same ting as the tekstboks, as the information in that tekstbox it not stored anywhere.
I have a text box on 'Forma' & a textbox (named text3) on 'Formb'.
I want to copy the contents of the textbox from 'Formb' to the textbox on 'Forma'. I have used the following code in the textbox on 'Forma'....
=Forms![Formb]![Text3].text
This doesn't seem to be working whether both Forms are open or only 'Forma'. Could somebody please advise as to what I am missing. Your assistance is very much appreciated.
Dear All:
I have created a form using access 2000. So far, this form already has data and dates in a combox in this format: mm/dd/yyyy.
In the AfterUpdate of the date combobox, I did this:
If graduation_date = #2/1/2004# then
Text_Graduation_date = "dated this first day of february two thousand four."
End If
End Sub
In addition, I have defined many other dates as well using the code above. It works well when I choose the date form the combobox, the other textbox populates, but there are so many more dates in the combo!
Is there a way to auto-populate the textbox with the appropriate text as I scroll through the form?
Thanks,
Dion
I currently have two froms, "add record" and "add record cont." The reason I have two seperate forms is because when clients create a new record information needs to be saved to two different tables and when creating one from with fields from both tables I ran into many problems. The two tables are named : tblMain, tblFileLoc Currently there is a textbox on both forms named "fileID" the FileID in the first form is from tblMain and is the primary key for that table, the FileID on the second form "Add Record Cont." is just a normal field. When clients enter in the new FileID in the first form "Add Record" and then move onto the next form "Add Record Cont." i need access to bring the entered FileID from the first form and Fill it in the FileID field in the second form. Currently I have tried making the control source for the textbox on the second form = the textbox on the first form but it brought up an error.
View 1 Replies View RelatedDear All:
I have created a form with various textboxes. In one unbound textbox called Graduation_date, I input information and this is reflected in another bound textbox called text762.
However, as I scroll through the form, the information that is to be reflected in textbox 762 disappears.
Any ideas on how to apply the information entered in Graduation_date textbox to all?

HI all, I have recently created my own custom toolbar for my database which works fine on my computer, but when the database is transfered to another computer via a memory stick (needs to be done as it is going to be used on remote laptops away from the main network), the custom toolbar does not carry over. Instead of the custom toolbar being shown, the normal, main toolbars are reset to the default ones shown.
Is there a way of stopping the toolbars reseting when transfering the database so that my custom toolbar is the default toolbar?
Thanks for the help!
I have a custom toolbar in my application. However, it isn't visible at the top of the application window and when I try to make it so - via View - Toolbars - it doesn't appear on the list of available bars.
I had assumed that I had somehow deleted it, but I know it's still present somewhere, as when I try to recreate it, I get a message saying so.
How can I get the toolbar to be displayed? :confused:

Hi all. I have tried searches on here and via google but can't find a difinitive answer to my question. What i would like to do is create a custom help file that will run when the user requests it. I know there is a property option to set a custom help file within a form but i am unsure of the correct process to do this to get it working.
Could someone please help me understand what needs to be done.
Thanks in advance.
Hi folks:
when I create a custom toolbar on my db, would that custom toolbar be carried to other copies of my db? I'm hiding all toolbars using code and I need to display only one.
thanks
Since the introduction of 2003 when you create a custom menu you always get the 'Type in a question for help' tag and the min max close buttons. Is there any way of removing them or disabling them?

I would like to create a custom autonumber to use as my primary key in one of my tables in my database.

Hello, I am trying to set up a relatively simple relationship between numeric fields in two (already related) tables. The problem is Access doesn't really support this type of relationship... or in fact, doesn't have an interface for coding your own custom relationships (if it had one, this would be ridiculously easy).
But it doesn't. So I have to turn to you.
To explain my problem better, I'll use a visual aid.

My two tables are as follows, the master is called [Raw Materials] and details is called [Raw Materials Details] (the aptly named).
I guess I should rename the [Raw Materials].[Stock] to something else (as this isn't REALLY data redundancy). But anyway, what I want to do is have the [Raw Materials].[Stock] automatically equal to Sum(Stock) FROM [Raw Materials Details].[Stock]. To rephrase, I want the Total Stock field to be automatically equal the sum of corresponding stocks.
Either way, I have no idea how to go about doing this. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Hi all,
I cant make work, a query with creteria filled within controls of a form. I will be more specific to make u understand what i want to ask.
There are 2 text fields and 2 combo boxes. All of them call a report (by pressing a button) from the main table.
in the "totalquery" query i call each control this way:
select tblPeople.name,tblPeople.tel,tblPeople.age,tblPeop le.Car from tblPeople where tblPeople.Name=[forms]![frmMyform]![combo1] OR tblPeople.tel=[forms]![frmMyform]![text1field] OR tblPeople.age=[forms]![frmMyform]![text2field] OR tblPeople.Car=[forms]![frmMyform]![combo2]
GROUP BY tblPeople.name,tblPeople.tel,tblPeople.age,tblPeop le.Car;
I want to make it display (the right) results if one of the text filed/combo is filled or with data, or all together or in combinations.
i use the OR statement,but it doesnt work if I fill in two fields/combos together and etc.
Anyone? :rolleyes:
Hello all!
Basically what I am wanting to know is how difficult is it going to be to do the following.
I want to have 8 searchable fields, first name, last name, MO, Job code, etc etc. I want to be able to type somthing in any one of these fields and then when i hit a submit button I want to to return to me all the data that corresponds to what I am looking for. I know I could just create a simple query from the query wizard but i want everything in the program to look uniform as to not throw every one off. How difficult would this be and how should I go about doing it. If you need more information let me know.
Wondering if it is possible to order by particular values??
That is I have a column (varchar) named "Status" with values such as; Entered, Active, Completed etc (I didnt design the DB).
What I need is to order by Entered, then by Active then Completed etc.. Is this possible??
Ive got this code for SQL; but it doesnt work in Access (03)..
ORDER BY
CASE Status
WHEN 'Entered' THEN 0
WHEN 'Active' THEN 1
WHEN 'Completed' THEN 2
ELSE 3 END, Status
I have a form with tab pages which I can not change the tab order.
When I bring up the Tab Order box no fields are displayed only a Custom Tab Order! Never seen this before.
Question is how to get rid of this and be able to change tab orders.
Thanks
I'm just creating my first db. When I'm on a form looking at a previous record (in this case a transaction), I need to be able to make a minor change to that record (such as the date for a repeat transaction), and then save the record as a whole new record. The button commands I found in the wizards only let me save over the current recond after an edit. Anyone know the easiest way to creaet a command button that does this? Thanks for any insights.

how in the world do you put in the little gray separators in a custom toolbar? you know, to keep similar buttons in logical 'groups' on the toolbar...
I am in the process of developing a DB for work. The DB is used to track incident reports and lost/found property reports.
I was interested in using 2 custom autonumbers for 2 different reports within the same DB. I would like to use the format of "I" for an incident report, "F" for the found property reports. So when I start a new Incident report it would generate the following number; "I05-03-001" The "I" specifing that it is an incident report, "05" for the current year, "03" for the current month, and "001 as the next sequential number for the reports for that month.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get this done? I would very much appreciate your help.
