hi,
I was wandering if it is possible to implicitly execute code upon the opening of a database? If so how do I do this? I have code to convert the page settings of a report from a command click but wanted this to be done automatically...

Hi,
I am having trouble in implementing the TreeCtrl structure. I have a simple database for testing purpose and I am not able to make it work. There appears to be a problem with the bookmark property and I get an error message:
"can't Add child:Arguments are of wrong Type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another".
I have attached the database here and could you please see what is wrong with my code.
Thanks
Priya
is there a possibility to open a compleet other database from you database out?
no matter what the location is (i give the location)
thx in advance

Hello,
My database has two main tables: Table1 and History
Users can add data to this table and decide if store part of data into the History table using an append query behind a cmdbutton. I do this to create an Historical Log of my records.
I then have a main form (form1) with the following code on the OnCurrent event:
If Not IsNull(DLookup("[SSN]", "history", "[SSN] = '" & [SSN] & "'")) Then
msgbox "Record present in the Historical Log!", vbOKOnly, "Warning"
end if
I would now like to change this code so that users are prompt with a message that allows them to either open the form1 or the Historical log (frmHistory)
I would need something like this but cannot get it to work:
If Not IsNull(DLookup("[SSN]", "history", "[SSN] = '" & [SSN] & "'")) Then
msgbox "Record present in the Historical Log!", vbYesNo, "Warning"
If vbYes Then
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmHistory", acNormal, "qryhistoryfrommsgbox", "", , acNormal
If vbNo Then '
'open the regular form1.
Another thing I cannot figure is why this pop up msg comes up even if I close the form. Is there a way to revome it from the close form event?
Thanks.
Does anyone know the code for opening a specific notepad file from a button? I know there's a default button but it only opens a blank notepad page. I need to open some written instructions from a button you see.
Thanks.
Hi
I need a button code in the OnClick event.

I have a database with lists clients across the UK. I have now been asked to provide options where users can select clients grouped by geopraphical area e.g say clients in Scotland.
I can of course do this but having numerous identical forms where the source queries have different parameters depending on the regions required.
The only problem with this is that I would need numerous forms and queries. Additionally, there are options on the form to navigate to linked forms which would all need to be unique.
What I would like to have options on my main (Switchboard Type) Introduction Form to select the region. The code on the relevent command button would include the parameter. I would therefore not require the additional forms.
The open form codes includes:
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "frmClients"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
I feel i need something after "frmClients" such as qryClients.ClientArea = "Not Scotland". Various attempts to incorporate something has created errors.
Any quidance on code would be appreciated.
Thank you...Paul
Hello..
I have the following code that I have been trying to get to work:

stDocName = "FrmApplicantFullDetails"

Else

DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
End If

I have the following two tables:
Applicant and Investigator
Applicant:
ApplicantID
InvestigatorID
etc
Investigator:
InvestigatorID
etc
The relationship is setup as 1 investigator to many applicants.
What I am trying do is this. I have form with a subform in it. In the subform there is applicant info IE SS# LName, FName and that is it. What I want to do is be able to double click on the SS# have the form "FrmApplicantFullDetails" open so you can view the work up on the applicant or edit info on the applicant.
Am I going about this the right way with the above code? Or is there something else I am missing in the code or is there code out that will do what I am looking for that is easier?
Thanks

I would like to have a button in a form that the end user clicks and they then enter the name of the tif file they are looking for and on pressing enter the file is searched for and if found it is automatically opened up for them to see, if it is not found then a message "File Not Found" is displayed.
I Believe that I will need something like this:
Code:
Dim FS As FileSystemObject
Dim filenum As Integer
Dim tmp As String
Dim Folder As Folder
Dim subFolder As Folder
Dim File As File

It's when I get to this point that I've got stuck, I don't know how to structure the code required to do the search and on finding the tif file open it.
An example tif file I might search for is: 0H214_2CJ0001905.tif.

Hi, I am a beginner in access. I am trying to execute the below query through VBA on a click event on a Command Button in a Form. I am taking input parameter from Form, based on which I want the query result( dynamic Query Parameter).

I am using a datasheet view with dbl click code to open a form to a selected record. I was able to use pbaldy's code and it worked perfectly.
DoCmd.OpenForm "Asset Status", , , "[Project Number] = '" & Me.Project_Number & " ' "
Then I realized I really want to be able to go to other records after I have gone to this form and tried this:
Dim rs As Object
Dim lngBookmark As Long
'set variable to the current record
lngBookmark = Me.Project_Number
'open new form
[code]....
But to no avail. Project_Number is a text field.
Hi all,
I've searched for a solution, and the proposed solution didn't work for me.
I am executing an SQL statement to insert values into a History table when deleting a value in a subform. Two of the 5 values are asking me for parameters when the SQL executes and I cant figure out why! The datatypes they are inserting into are correct and I'm at a loss. The 2 values giving me grief are Manufacturer and Model.
Here's the code:
Dim sSQLMachHistory As String
MsgBox "me.acctid: " & Me.AccountID
MsgBox "me.manufac: " & Me.Manufacturer & " me.serial: " & Me.SerialNumber
MsgBox "model: " & Me.Model
'Insert into History Table:
sSQLMachHistory = "INSERT INTO tblMachineHistory (SerialNumber, Manufacturer, Model, AccountID, MachineID) VALUES (" & Me.SerialNumber & ", " & Me.Manufacturer & ", " & Me.Model & ", " & Me.AccountID & ", " & Me.MachineID & ")"
MsgBox sSQLMachHistory
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunSQL sSQLMachHistory
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
My message boxes show me all the values are displaying and should be inserting into the table -- any ideas??? :confused:
cheers

I have a mainform with a search function so the user can select a record to view and update. The selected record is displayed in Subform1 on Page1 of a tab control. The record source of this form is Query1. Page2 of the tab control contains Subform2; record source is the result of Query1 joined to Query2.
The forms correctly displays, updates and adds records my problem occurs when I add VBA code to the BeforeUpdate event of a control on Subform1. The code appears to execute once for each page in the tab control.
Has anyone any suggestions on how I can correct my problem.
Thanks

Hi
I have a Visible form and an Invisible (visible=false) form open at the same time. Is it possible to use a button on the visible form to execute the code behind a button in the invisible form. The subroutine on the invisible form is Public. I tried DoCmd.RunCommand and a macro with RunCode but... nada...
(There is a valid reason for this approach but i will spare you the boring explanation. I can think of a work around where I can bypass this need, but this way is cleaner (there are cases where the invisible form is visible and used directly, the form has data which is sent to a report to create a label). I have done everything else with VBA code but for some reason can't get this to work, so now i am obsessed)
Thanks, this forum is really a gem!
Hi,
I try to execute an update command i.e.:
UPDATE Results set Data = 'Heiner's key' where ValidationNumber = 1 and TestNumber = 2 and Line = 'E1'.
Access does not let me do this because the “'” in Heiner's terminates the update string prematurely.
Does anyone have a suggestion how to do this? Thank you.

I am using ACCESS 2010, win 7 Home Premium 64bit
difficult to handle error when executing my report. I put a code into OnOpen section but ACCESS states:
Quote:
The expression OnOpen you entered as the event property produced the following error: A problem occurred while Microsoft Access was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX Control.
Additionally it says in description:
This error occurs when an event has failed to run because the location of the logic for the event cannot be evaluated. For example, if the OnOpen property of a form is set to =[Field], this error occurs because a macro or event name is expected to run when the event occurs.
I am genuinely confused by that. I have also provided the code in the case if I am missing something I don't know yet. In a debug window, I have executed the code line by line and it worked. Whenever I try to open the report, the error occurs. Should I be aware of something when I write code for reports?
Below, the code in my report "module":
Code:
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Call CreateTempTable
End Sub
Private Sub CreateTempTable()
