im not even sure if this is possible.. but if it is it will be just what i need.
basically the job1 form has a search feature added to it..
as users type the passenger name in the form.. a listbox below updates if a match is found..
if you can imagine the situation..
my user will be entering jobs into this form.. they will not know whether or not a passenger has used us before.. the only way they will know is if they see in the listbox the same name.. and pickup/destination/phone no. details as the job they are about to enter
i wondered if it was possible for the user to click on the customer in the listbox.. and drag and drop it into the passenger name textbox..
can this be done.. the attatchment is very simple.. one form.. job1.
if someone can explain to me how to do it.. or perhaps alter the db i have attached i will be most grateful
how to have users drag and drop a document into a text box within a form and have it create a hyperlink. What I need to know now, is if there is a way that when a file is dropped into the text box, it only shows the icon associated with that file, or at the very least, edit the hyperlink to only show a certain text. The files I need to see are all in a networked drive, so the hyperlink addresses can be quite long, and ultimately I'd just like the hyperlink to say "letter". Showing the icon would be a plus.
Hello, How to do drag & drop in a form ? I would like user click a field on a listbox and place it with the mouse in a field of the form as you can see in windows explorer to move a file from a place to an other. I tried with mouse events but i don't obtain exactly what i want. I this possible to do that ? Thanks in advance.
In my opinion there are actualy 3 solutions to fix this. As i will explain later on. But first i will try to describe the database first.
there is a reciept part and a "offerte" (<--in dutch) part. I cant remember the word anymore.
Everything is working fine. But i have got just one problem. I have a continuous subform with records in it. When adding records they get added at the end of the record set. Ok fine.... thats still no problem.
But if some item is forgotten. They will need to add it. But it will be added at the end of the list. and for example it needs to be between record 2 and 3.
So this is the problem. Is it posible to have it moved. For example with 2 buttons "Move Up" "Move Down" or drag and drop. I actualy don't care how this will hapen. but the items need to have the posibility to be reordered.
I found a interesting example database. with a listbox with the records in it. and drag and drop possibilities. But i cant figure out how to update this recordset order to the continuous form (it is the same query they pik). Or maybe to send the recordset in the listbox directly to an report would do the job either.
I would appriciate some help here. I am looking for a solution for 2 weeks already. and you ppl are my last hope.
I've been developing several databases. Some elements that were experimental are now going "live". My development environment is Access 2010 on Windows 7 Pro. The "live" environment is also Access 2010 but running on Windows Vista SP2.
In development, I can drag tables, queries, etc. from one database to another by dropping them in the navigation column. When I try that on the "live" environment, it doesn't seem to work.
Is this a knownh difference between Windows 7 and Vista? Is this some sort of "trusted database" issue?
It is lots easier to drag and drop than using the Import External Data process so I'd like it to work.
Hello to all The problem that I am facing is the following. I am trying to create a form that has the following: 1. A combo box in which you select from a list of users 2. A list box which is populated when I select a user showing me the courses that they have to take 3. Another list box that is populated when I select a course showing me the dates available for that course 4. Finally a third list box which is populated by what I drag or double click on the dates list box basically scheudling the user to his courses.
The first 3 parts of this done what is left to do now is the hard part which is to be able to drag and drop the dates in the other listbox which basically maps that user to that course date and populates the corresponding table. Any suggestions on how to do this would be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance
I am in the process of trying to create a DragNDrop feature in the Access database that I've built. I have 3 employee with several different txt boxes all side by side and I need to be able to drag and drop the job from one to another.
I need to create a class module to do this but my problem is I don't know how.
I am trying to do the following. I understand how to create relationships.However, when I create a field with a drop down selection (in this example Phone Number and Email) once that list item is selected I would like the column to the right to populate that information.So when Phone # is selected, the field to the right will populate a number for this individual.
Drag and Drop works great but how do I open a reports based on what I selected? I have two list boxes the first is "items not selected" and the second is "Items selected" now I want to create a button that open a report showing the result from "Items selected"?? Hope someone can help I've been to ms access web site but our firewall does not allow any down loads. Thanks in advance.
I am trying to populate a textbox from a field in a table based on clicking on a item in a listbox. User clicks a name from the Client table in the client field, and the date that is stored in the orderDate in the same row. I want the text11 textbox to show that date.
I would like to append a text item to each value in a calculated field. consider the field name is "Division" and I want to append the word "Division" to the values put out by the field "Division"
My attempt was: Division & " " & "Division". This produced an error in the report.
Drop down list equipped with new item input provided. My application now use a drop down list to access/display a form with certain item selected, but I want to entry new item using drop down list which equipped with "entry new item" then I hope the form can be accessed belongs to new item.
I have this database which has a comments field which often gets the same text added into it depending on what is in it. what I am trying to do is something similar to signiatures in outlook express.
What the end user wants to do is select from a dropdown box what text they want to add to the field and hit a button and it will insert it into the memo (comments) field in the form without overwriting any of the text they have in there already, they might want to just add one of the sentences or several.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might go about this?
I have a master form for lack of a better phrase and 3 other forms that represent specific items in the original drop down box. In the master drop down box, I have all 50 states, and the 3 forms are for 3 specific states. Here's the code I have so far but when I save, it says "The 'OpenForm' macro action has an invalid value for the 'Where Condition' agrument."
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Private Sub State_AfterUpdate() Select Case Me.State Case "CA" DoCmd.OpenForm "Auditor Form (CA)"
I'm currently working on fixing an older 97 database that I've updated to 2010. I have just populated the Drop down box with about three fields. Ideally what I want to do is after having selected the item number from the drop down box I then hit the button that creates a report with the information about that item number.
At the moment...If the box is blank it reports all the item numbers, however if i fill the box(select an item) it returns nothing i.e the report is blank.
I've looked at the query that builds the report, there are only three fields that populate the. location, part number and description. from a tbl called MainDetails
the only other thing: If([Forms]![frmReports]![FLoc] Is Null,[FUNCTIONAL LOCATION] Is Not Null,[FUNCTIONAL LOCATION] Like [Forms]![frmReports]![FLoc]) it has a criteria of <>False *FLoc is the drop down box *functional location is the location field. I believe all the above does is populate the report if Floc is empty.
What can I put to make the report generate what ever I pick in the drop down box 'FLoc' source the three fields from the 'MainDetails table'.
My query is executing on everything in the listbox. I only want it to be executed on the value that i select. What codes can i use? I really need some help on this one.
I'm trying to select a specific row in a listbox in the OnKeyDown event on my form. Basically, while in a subform, I want the enter key to move the focus to the list box, specifically to row After the last selected.
Here's an example of the code I thought would work:
Private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer) Dim ItemNumber As Integer
I have 2 buttons that move items up and down in a listbox by changing a field value with the previous one and sorting by them..my question is thiswhen i click this button how do i get the listbox to reselect that item again with the new value? (requery and reselect i think)i just dont wanna have to reclick the item when i want to move it more than oncethanks in advance
Have created dynamic listbox, means list items are getting updated based on other listbox selection, to update listbox i have created query and linked the same with listbox row source.
Now i would like to add list item called "All" on top in the item list, which is not exist in the query results.
I have two list boxes on a form. The first listbox contains CATEGORIES and the second contains ITEMS that belong to respective categories. So, when i click a category the next listbox displays the items that belong to that particular category.
I need to know how to add new items to a selected category and also delete items from a selected category. If no category is selected or item already exixts, item should not add.
At the moment I have a query that returns a result based on what's selected in a combobox.
SELECT ComponentT.ComponentType AS ComponentType FROM ComponentT WHERE (((ComponentT.TotalComponent) Like [Forms]![DeviceF]![D_ComponentNameCmb] & "*"));
Instead of this I want to rewrite the query to return a result based on what the user has selected in a list box of items. How would this query look. Would I need to increment it in a loop checking all entries into the list box as it can vary in size and if so how?
I tried changing the last line to WHERE (((ComponentT.TotalComponent) Like [Forms]![DeviceF]![D_OutputLsb].[ItemsSelected] & "*")); which returned a result just not the right one. Is there something wrong with the syntax?
I've created a listbox and am using the following code
stWhat1 = "": stCriteria1 = "," For Each vItm1 In Me!LstArchive.ItemsSelected stWhat1 = stWhat1 & Me![LstArchive].Column(0, vItm1) stWhat1 = stWhat1 & stCriteria1 Next vItm1 Me!txtCriteria1 = CStr(Left$(stWhat1, Len(stWhat1) - Len(stCriteria1)))
The problem is that my bound column is a text field. I'm really struggling on where to put my quotations so that I get the following with the In function In('00638','00639').
Any help or pointing in right direction would be very much appreciated Carrie
