i need some major direction!
here's what I need to do....
i need to generate a report based on a table(no big deal).
However, I need to generate a query that lists all users from the table(still no big deal).
Here's where the fun comes in...
I need to use that query to populate a listbox and allow multiselect on the listbox. The table data that is related to the values from the listbox that are selected are NOT to be showed on the report. So I imagine I need to create a query where the criteria is <>the value(s) in the listbox. So I basically have two problems...
1. getting the value(s) from the listbox (the only way i seem to be able to get a value from the listbox is if I do not allow multiple selections--i'm obviously overlooking something)
2. using the value(s) as criteria to limit my query results(not sure how i would do this, since it's more than one value--possibly an array??)
I guess i could also do it the opposite way, too(select users that you want)...but either way, i have no idea how to go about it. Please help~I'm going crazy!!
I am using the selections made of the form to generate a query for the user.
I have a CITIES listbox that is populated with values from a stored query.
I would like to make it multi-select and populate a LOCATIONS list box and a NAMES list box based upon the CITIES that are selected.
I have the locations currently populated from a stored query that reads the City selection from the Form. It looks like this
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT (t_location.LOCATION) AS Expr1 FROM t_location INNER JOIN t_asset_master ON t_location.LOCATION_PHY_ID = t_asset_master.LOCATION WHERE (((t_location.CITY)=[Forms]![MasterQueryGenerator]![CityList]));
I also want multi-select so that is you can un-select all and get the results for all cities.
Here is my half thought approach.
Code:
Private Sub CityList_AfterUpdate() 'Dim LocQryStr As String 'Dim r As Integer 'Dim ctl9 As Control 'LocQryStr = "SELECT DISTINCT (t_location.LOCATION) " & _
[Code] ...
I intended to have the variable LocQryStr as the row source but I abandoned the idea of having multi-select when I saw that .Selected(I) never returned true. Its like the values aren't read in this subroutine.
After reading some of what people already had in this forum, I was still left a little confused. Say I have a form with three combo boxes and I want the user to be able to select something from all 3 or just one at a time. Which kind of query should I be using. Right now I have a select query, but it doesn't work right due to the Where Clause, which will work 1 way or the other, but not both(that I know of). Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
I am just starting out in Access Development. I have a database that runs a logistics department. This was working fine until the users wanted a little more tweaking.
The report prints out the vehicles with all corresponding drops. This comes out all on sheet.
Is there a way that I can create a form to filter the report via a multi select listbox and print each drop selected on a seperate sheet of paper.
I created a form that has 3 multiple drop-down selections that is supposed to select records from [TableName_1] based on those selections. I initially created the query using the query designer with actual "hard coded" selections to make sure it worked. When it gave me the expected records, I changed the criteria from the "hard coded" option to the input form's control reference [Forms]![FormName]![ComboName]. I did this one at a time and tested after each change.
After the first change, I got exactly what I expected.
After the second change, it seemed okay. (note: I put the criteria on the first criteria line in the query designer, not on the second line)
After the third change, I get the dreaded: The expression is typed incorrectly or is too complex to be evaluated....
Here is the SQL:
SELECT M_Lending_Institution.InstitutionName, M_Lending_Institution.GeoRegionID, M_Lending_Institution.SpecialtyID, M_Lending_Institution.SBA FROM (SELECT M_Lending_Institution.InstitutionName, M_Lending_Institution.GeoRegionID, M_Lending_Institution.SpecialtyID, M_Lending_Institution.SBA FROM M_Lending_Institution) AS LenderSearchQuery WHERE (((LenderSearchQuery.GeoRegionID.Value)=[Forms]![LoanSearch]![CmbPrefGeo]) AND ((LenderSearchQuery.SpecialtyID)=[Forms]![LoanSearch]![CmbSpecialtyArea]) AND ((LenderSearchQuery.SBA)=[Forms]![LoanSearch]![CmbSBA]));
And once this is sorted out, yes I want to be able to allow for all records to be returned if any of those fields is NULL. I've read a LOT of posts around this subject, but I can't seem to find anything that answers my question without jumping into advanced VBA code.
Morning - I have been searching a bit but to no avail. I have a query (qryTopTenList) set up in a database that selects the Top Ten "Classes" from a table with a key field of "insclass".
I have a multi select list box (LstInsClass) that allows end users to select multiple insurance classes. What I would like to do is set up a standard button that when clicked, will loop through all of the insclass in the query "qryTopTenList" and then select those same insurance classes in my multi select list box. So the end result is that 10 records in the List Box would be selected.
This is helpful b/c it prevents the need to go through the entire list box to select the top ten classes.
I have created a search form which I would like to use to run a query (so the data is in a spreadsheet form and I can export it).
In this search form I have a multi select list box (simple) that list the states in the US. I need to be able to pass 1 or more states as a search criteria at the same time. Also I need it to pull ALL states if there is nothing selected. The search form has a bunch of fields on it that won't all be used.
I know once you select more than one thing from a list you can't reference it directly, is there a way to accomplish what I want to do?
For the life of me I can't get the Multiselect Listbox to correctly pass along all of the item selections to a Query which a form is based on.
I've been up and down the forum, and I can't figure out what piece of code to use and how to use it successfully.
I've been able to get a string created using the example posted here (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=47909) and it's in the format of "54,67,89,100" etc.
Public Function Public Function fMultiSelect(ctlRef As ListBox) As Variant Dim Criteria As String Dim i As Variant
' Build criteria string from selected items in list box. Criteria = "" For Each i In ctlRef.ItemsSelected If Criteria <> "" Then Criteria = Criteria & "," End If Criteria = Criteria & Format(ctlRef.ItemData(i), "0000000") Next i
fMultiSelect = Criteria gMultiSelect = Criteria End Function
I now need to pass that string to a Query. Once it's been passed to the query, I can open the report based on it.
Essentially I have a button that will perform the string creation, and I would then like to open a report. I want to base the report off of a query and then have the query use Criteria to dwindle down the report.
Am I missing something here?
The long explanation:
I have a single form that allows for the selection of the report. Once the report is selected, certain fields appear that allow for certain criteria to be selected (ie. Class Name, Multi-Select Class Name, Student Names, Multi select Student Names, Dates, etc.)
Once the report has been selected and the criteria set, a user hits a single button that runs the specific report.
Any better ideas of how to set this up. The reports will ultimately be basing their criteria on what the form has in all of it's unbound fields.
I also have a table that specifies the Display Name, actual Report Name for the button to figure out what report to run.
Bottom Line. I want to use a Listbox to filter a report. If I can use a query to base the report off of even better. I don't want to create the SQL in VBA.
On [Form1] I have a Multi-Select Listbox[List1] which shows Job Numbers [WBS] (The job numbers displaying are a result of a separate query filtered by the Fiscal Year combobox). When I click [CMD1] I want [Query1] results to only be selected [WBS] from the form.What is the best way to code this? I'm a beginner when it comes to VBA.
I have a multi slect list box (simple) and I need to find and select an item using vba - e.g., the bound column is the ID field and I need to select a specific ID (which will be different each time) as opposed to selecting the 100th record for example. How do I do this?
I stumbled on to a Dynamic Multi Search form on this site and have been tailoring it to my organization's directory of contacts. Everything was going good until I was asked to include a search by groups to which each individual may belong. The data in the table is contained in Yes/No check boxes for around 30 different groups. I am hoping to add a combo box to the Dynamic Search as a means to pull up individuals in any 1 category. Below are two attempts at what I thought might work, however, neither performs any filtering.
Code: Private Sub Groupbox_Change() Dim db As Database Dim qdf As QueryDef Dim strSQL As String Set db = CurrentDb Set qdf = db.QueryDefs("qryGroup")
Hi, is there any (reasonably simple) way to select or deselect multiple items from the List Box with individual clicks without using Ctrl key. Eg first click on an item would select it leaving all other items as they are, subsequent click on the already selected item would deselect it etc. I hope this is not too confusing and I would appreciate some help. Thanks!
i have a multiselect listbox in my form. The multiselectlistbox contains the names of different persons from tblUsers. it's allready possible to write the id's of the names to another table (tblPresent).
But what I can't manage to do is re-select the values in another multiselect listbox. This multiselectlistbox is located on my editform. I can display the values using a valuelistbox, but i need to see the non-selected items too..
I want to know if it's possible to make a dynamic select case. In my form I have 3 separate combo boxes. What I want to happen is depending on what was selected in one the options in the other two change and if you select something in the second the option in the third narrows down again. The user can select these in any order. They can use one by itself or all three independently. In my code I can do this with many select statements, e.g
Select Case Me.combobox1.Value Case "choice1" Forms!CurrentForm!combobox2.RowSourceType = "Table/Query" Forms!CurrentForm!combobox2.RowSource = "SELECT fieldname FROM tablename WHERE fieldname = '" & Me.combobox1.Value & "'" End Select
In the place I have "choice" is it possible to write something along the lines of,Me.combobox1.value = "SQL Code"..The idea that this code would still work if the user adds more data to the tables which these combobox choices come from.
I am looking to see if anyone can help i have been able to get the multi select function part of my form working but i need another filter in the query for a date but it keeps deleting this part of the query everytime i run the report what i need to be able to do is get all jobs against a specific leadcraft that are in the past and also 31 days into the future.

here is the sql so far, thanks to those who helped already.

I have multiple codes assigned to records in a table. I want to be able to say IIf [code] = "FMIX",[qty]*2.2046/7.1, IIf [code] = "Liqd", [qty]*2.2046 and everything else can just equal [qty]. I have tried this statment Expr1: IIf([family-code]="FMIX",[SumOfqty-on-hand]*2.2046 IIf([family-code]="LIQD",<[SumOfqty-on-hand]*2.2046>,[SumOfqty-on-hand]),[SumOfqty-on-hand]) and it doesn't work. Can anyone tell me what is wrong?
Hi, This is my first posting on this forum, and I would greatly appreciate any help with this issue...
I have a form that is used for entering information into tables. I would like to be able to select multiple options from a list on a form and have it saved into a table. Any ideas? Is this even possible :confused:
Here are some paths I followed: The table has a List Box field, type Text, that gets values for the list items from another table. On the form, I have changed the Multi-Select property of the List Box to "Extended" so that the user can select multiple items from the list. But when I select items from the List Box, the table is not getting updated with the selected items.
Another way I tried doing this: The table has a List Box field that has no values (I'm not looking up values from another table). On the form, I set the Row Source of the List Box equal to the query that gets the list values from a table. I then set the Multi-Select property to "Extended". When I select multiple items from the List Box, the table doesn't get updated.
FYI: The control source for the list box on the form is pointing to the field in the table.
I would like to create a form that my users can select multiple check boxes from and have only those records that meet the criteria come up in a search.
See attachment for a look at the form.
I need to be able to let the user have the ability to put in a name and then select any of the check boxes and then click on a search button that will execute a query that will bring up the results.
Any help with code or at least a point in the right direction would be nice.
Is there any way to have a Multi-Select Combo Box fill a single field in a table? I've been messing with this for some time now and just can't seem to figure it out.
I have two questions regarding a multi-select list box.
First, is there any way to have the list box include multi-line items...or which will scroll beyond the right border of the box?
Second, I have a multi-select list box which is populated with an ID # column and a Description column. The user can select as many items from the list box as needed and, as the list box item is clicked, the ID # is added to a memo field on the form, with each ID # delineated with a coma. Is it possible to separate the memo field back out so that each item is identified individually (for report purposes)?
Thanx so much for your help with this...you guys/gals are simply the best!
I have a dialog box where the users can filter a report by various combo boxes that works well. I'm trying to add a multiselect lis box option for one of the combo boxes and have added code which I've also used before. Together the code is looping through and opening the report without a problem, except it's not filtering by the options selected in the list box. Here's what I've got:
If Left(Me![cboSupplier].Column(0), 1) = "*" Or Right(Me![cboSupplier].Column(0), 1) = "*" Then where = where & " AND [qssupp] Like " + Me![QSSupp].Column(0) Else where = where & " AND [qssupp]=" + Me![cboSupplier].Column(0) End If
If Left(Me![cboPartNo].Column(0), 1) = "*" Or Right(Me![cboPartNo].Column(0), 1) = "*" Then where = where & " AND [partID] Like " + Me![PartID].Column(0) Else where = where & " AND [PartID]=" + Me![cboPartNo].Column(0) End If
For Each varItem In cboStatus.ItemsSelected If strCondition = "" Then strCondition = "[odstatusid] = " & cboStatus.Column(0, varItem) Else strCondition = strCondition & " OR [odstatusid] = " & cboStatus.Column(0, varItem) End If Next varItem
Set QD = db.CreateQueryDef("Dynamic_Query", _ "Select * from qryWeeklyOrderStatusRpt " & (" where " + Mid(where, 6) & ";")) If (DCount("*", "Dynamic_Query") = 0) Then MsgBox "There are no records to print" Exit Sub End If
I have a problem that I haven't seen discussed here yet. (I know this is not good practice, but we're doing this for transfer to another application that wants and accepts data this way)
1) I have a multi select list box. 2) I have code that saves all the values in a semi colon delimeted list in a single field in the DB. (As I said, the application that this data is going to (and from) wants and accepts data in this way)
3) My problem is this. When I re-open my form, how do I get the values that are stored in the database to be highlighted in the multi select list box. I have code similar to this running, but still can't figure it out.
Dim lst() As String
rst.Open sSQL, cnn, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic lst = Split(rst(0), vbCrLf, -1) 'Split the recordset into an array For i = 0 To List96.ListCount For j = 0 To UBound(lst) 'lopp until the upper bound of the array
'If the item in the list box = the item in the array then highlight the item in the list box If List96.ItemData(i) = lst(j) Then List96.ItemsSelected(i) = True End If Next j Next i
In a nutshell, that's the problem. My list box contains a list of about 5 or 6 things, the user can select any number of them, and I store it in a single field in the DB semi colon delimited. However, I don't know how to return that field to my list box with the selected values highlighted. IE if the list contains A, B, C, D and the user selected A, C the field in the DB looks like this A;C. When I open the form again, I want to highlight A and C in my list box since those were the fields the user selected.
What happens is A;C gets passed to another application (which wants it that way). However, in that other application those values may or may not change, and then they will be passed back to me. (IE the other application may change those values to A;B;D and pass it back to me (which I accept no problem). However, when the user opens the form I want A B and D to be highlighted in the multi select list box
I am using a Multi Select List Box to display a list of names from a table, in order to select e-mail recipients. The names are in two fields: [Main]![First Name] and [Main]![Surname].
I have done this by using the following code for the rowsource:
SELECT DISTINCTROW Main![e-mail], Main![First Name], Main!Surname FROM Main;
This gives a rather undesired effect, in that shorter first names have a large gap before the surname. In addition, there is a dull separating line between the two columns, thus:
Jane | Smith Bartholomew | Simpson
My questions:
Is it possible to arrange the names so they appear in one column, with a space between them? (i.e. they would appear as written) If not, can I get rid of the separating line?
hello! i'm trying to select more than one value in a listbox based on a comma-seperated string in a textbox. it seems to be doing what it's supposed to do, except it's only selecting the last value it loops through. it doesn't seem to remember the others. there's probably an easier way to do this than how i did it, but here is the code:
Code:Dim lst As ListBoxDim lngCount As LongDim strSelection As StringDim strNewSelection As StringDim intLen As IntegerDim lngLen As LongstrNewSelection = ""strSelection = Me.Text19.ValueWhile InStr(1, strSelection, ",") <> 0strSelection = Trim(strSelection)lngLen = Len(strSelection)intLen = InStr(1, strSelection, ",")strNewSelection = Left(strSelection, intLen - 1)Set lst = Me!List0lst.RowSource = lst.RowSourceFor lngCount = 0 To lst.ListCount - 1 If lst.Column(0, lngCount) = strNewSelection Then lst.Selected(lngCount) = True Exit For End IfNext lngCount strSelection = Right(strSelection, lngLen - intLen)Wend
have a query that works fine when I have to select one parameter, however I don't know how to select multi parameters...In this query I would like to able to select as well as the specific 'POSTITION' value Also 'BASE' and all those parameters that have a check box empty or full.
Code: SELECT tblCrewMember.StaffNumber, tblCrewMember.Surname, tblCrewMember.Name, tblCrewMember.Position, tblCrewMember.Base, tblCrewMember.Nationality, tblCrewMember.StartingDate, tblCrewMember.Resined, tblCrewMember.ResinedDate, tblCrewMember.Birthday, tblCrewMember.IDCrewMember, [GroupBy] AS Expr1 FROM tblCrewMember WHERE ((([GroupBy])=[Position])) ORDER BY tblCrewMember.StaffNumber;
