need help., have a form, have put a combo box to display values from another table, works ok, but when a type a new value, it displays 'not in list', so how to add the value to the table without opening the other table or any other suggestion, should i select values in combo box from a query...
:eek:
I have a subform in a form that has a Combo Box that is linked (not sure is that is the correct term) to a field called PartID in a table containing a list of Parts. The list show the Name of the Part (PartName) and other fields.
This all works great except that it allows the user to change the text in the Name of the Part (PartName) field directly from the Combo Box!!!! I really don't want this to be able to happen.I have the "Limit to List = Yes" but it still allows the user to change the value...The "Allow Value List Edits = No"...
I'm trying to create a combo box that takes its values from a field in a table, the thing is that this field has duplicates because:
* The table is a qualification look up table * It has 3 fields: QualificationID (autonumber), Qualification(e.g. Bachelor), Programme (e.g. Science) * E.g of duplicate values (this is not a problem as it is necessary) Bachelor of Science, Diploma of Science, Certificate of Science
What I'm trying to do is create 2 single-columned combo boxes that are a parameter for a query and it's working except the combo boxes show duplicated valuesIs there a way to get the query that is the row source for the combo box to eliminate duplicates?
I have several comboboxes (6) on my form.How to populate these comboboxes with values depending on selected value in previous combobox.
Example.Lets say that you select value "Audi" in combobox 1, then available values in combobox 2 should be "A4","A6","TT" etc. and if you selected "BMW" in combobox 1, then available values in combobox 2 should be "3-series", "5-series" etc...
I would like to set up rules/constraints such that the value selected in combo box A determines the available values in combo box B. For example, "Combo box A" is bound to the [PartnerType] field and "Combo box B" is bound to the [PartnerRole] field. Let's say that the two choices in Combo Box A are "LLC", "LP", and "Corporation". There are 5 possible choices in Combo Box B: "X", "Y", "Z", "Q", and "U". If a user selects "LP" in Combo Box A, I would like Combo Box B to only show choices "X" and "Y". And if a user selects "LLC", only choices "Y", "Z", "Q", and "U".
Similarly, I would like to set this up so that Combo Box B is not initially visible--it becomes visible when a user selects "LLC" or "LP". If a user selected "Corporation", Combo Box B would remain hidden.
I have a main form that filters data in a subform based on selections via combo box users make on the main form.
So I have the 'department' and 'manager's name'. If someone selects 'Human Resources' from 'department' combo box, then I only want to see the managers that are in the Human Resources departement when I drop down the combo box for 'manager's name'. Currently I'm seeing all the managers and a user can select a manager that is not in human resources and get no data returned. I prefer for him to get a list of those that are in that department only. The source of the combo box is a query.
Once a supplier name is selected from the combo box i only want it displayed that suppliers products in the subform, subform. (products combo box) I can get a basic query to show these results but can get the combo box to do the same.
I m new to access, i want to get the Project_name into "form!project_name " from the project table when user select project_id in the form. Any idea will be appreciated.

I have text boxes on the main form above the list box & can't work out how to get the totals in the text boxes above like I've typed them in the sample above
I have a Select query that lists, among other things, two fields: ID_Clients EndDate
Each entry in ID_Clients may be listed several times
I want to generate a Select query based on the above query that lists each value of ID_Clients just once, by selecting the record for that ID_Clients that has the maximum value in the field EndDate.
Hi! I have a tables. One is called: products => prdouctID,productName, ProductPrice
I created a dropdown list. To read in the values of productName.
I wanted to have a textbox / label which will update the productPrice. If i select productName as "Pirates", the textbox/label will show $50.00 If i select productName as "Who let them out?", the textbox/label will show $80.00
I have managed to do the dropdown list but cant seem to figure out the label / textbox.
I was thinking/hoping of using a list box on my form to store multiple values, I haven't been able to find a way of storing any value so far so not sure how easy it will be?
How can this be achieved or is it just easier to use several check boxes (approx 8)
An affiliate sent us a table of email addresses, one per record. We need to find which ones already exist in our master table. Our master table contains an email field but it may contain MULTIPLE email addresses separated by semicolons. How do we create a query (or queries) which tell us which email addresses already exist somewhere in our master table?
I have a list in a form where the user can select multiple values. The list "Projekte" is based on the table "Projekte".
I want to be able after the user selects multiple values from the list to use them in a query to show the respectful records. For example if the user selects Project 1 and Project 2. I want to show the records where there are either Project one or Project 2. Is that possible without VB as I have no knowledge of VB.
I have two tables, TBL_Students and TBL_Email. Each of these tables have a field called Category, which allows multiple values from a list.
Is there a way to return records from TBL_Students where at least one value in TBL_Students!Category = at least one value in TBL_Email!Category.
E.g. If Student A has categories Maths, Physics and Computing;Student B has categories Maths, English and History;Student C has categories Physics and Geography
I would expect: when TBL_Email!Category = Maths,Physics : Students A,B,C to be returned when TBL_Email!Category = Maths : Students A,B to be returned when TBL_Email!Category = Physics,Geography : Students A,C to be returned
I have a table of records, with one field of the records a combobox populated by a select query based onanother table.
My problem ism that it doesn't seem to recognise any of the values as on the list, though deleting one character and then replacing it results in the value being accepted with no problems.
This is a database I have inherited (Cheers predecessor!), the table is populated with a few thousand records and scrolling through this table results in an error message on this field for every record and is making displaying data on this form a nightmare! Anyone know of the cause or of a quick fix?
I don't know the history of this table unfortunately.
I hope the title actually conveys what I'd like to do.
I want to assign records on a subform to a group header on a form. For example, I have groups A, B, C, and D and I want the records on a subform to be assigned to groups A, B, and D. (The number of groups and their names will change so I can't simply use an "A," "B," "C" option box.) My idea is to have a Multi-Select List Box on the main form and choose all the groups to which the records on the subform need to belong. So I'd select the groups, enter the records on the subform, then create a another record on the master form and assign records to another group.
Is it possible to make this happen without a lot of programming?
I have a table with a few Listbox options. I want one of the columns' values to be determined by the value chosen in another field. How do I do this?
Example: In column A I choose value ABC from the dropdown. I want column B to now offer values in that list of DEF, GHI, JKL. If I chose XYZ in column A instead, I'd want the column B list to show MNO, PQR, STU. Etc.
I was able to create a very user-friendly pop-up search form : {URL] .....
I would like to take it a step further... Now, I would like to grab the selected record ID from within one of the list box columns and use it in my SQL statement (to copy the record into a new one). Is there any way to reference a highlighted record value within a list box recordset directly and/or any workarounds?
I know one would be to grab the ID and insert it into the text box, just don't know what the coding references would be for this.
I have a combo box which gets its values from sql server using a query which is called "get_query_reason", which works fine. Now I want to update combo box values based on a user selection, st string. Have written the code, but does not work:
Dim qDef As QueryDef Dim Query As String Dim st As String Dim rs As Recordset st = "SOV" Set qDef = CurrentDb.QueryDefs("get_query_reason")
I have an Employee's Development Objective main form , which has a subform that contains a combobox that lists all 'Job Titles' and 'Job Objectives' within the company, say such as:
How do I get the subform combo box to ONLY display the Job Titles and Job Objectives specific to the Employees known Job Title? The combobox Row Source is presently:
Code: SELECT qryJobObjectiveDetails.jobObjID, qryJobObjectiveDetails.jobTitle, qryJobObjectiveDetails.objective FROM qryJobObjectiveDetails ORDER BY [jobTitle], [objective];
The main form has a jobID number specific to the Employees job title.
I have a Table with a short text field, field size: 20. The row source has been set up ie "Item 1", "Item 2", "Item 3", etc. Allow multiple values IS allowed.Once I drop a control on a form (list box) to represent the aforementioned field, I realize I can put a checkmark in many items. Why? I add up the total length of the items text at 40-50 characters, yet the field size is only 20. To check my sanity, I open the Table in Datasheet view and lo, I can see all the Items spelled out, in clear violation of field size constraints
