How To Search Subform With Text Box

View Replieshow to search subform with textbox and button in form
View RepliesI wanted to build a dynamic search form using text box instead of the common combo box type.
I found an example that used the combo box and the searching portion of the code is as followed:
Code:
If Nz(Me.txtID, "") > "" Then
If Len(Nz(strFilter)) > 0 Then strFilter = strFilter & " And "
strFilter = strFilter & "CategoryID = '" & Me.txtID & "'"
bFilter = True
End If
How to insert (Like "*" & Me.txtID & "*") into the code to make the dynamic search using text box possible.
1. I created a form with some search-fields which are related to a query. Then I added a Subform in which I put some more Search criteria (So that I can easily hide and unhide those additional searchfields). It sounds strange but is necessary ;-). Now I related those searchfields in the subform to the same query. When I run that query a window pops up that I should put in a value in all those searchfields which are in the subform. But I told Access that it should display all rows, if there is no value in those searchfields. Just as I did it with the Searchcriteria in the Main form. Do I have to do something special, when I have a query which is related to two Forms?
2. I want a searchfield to search in three different columns. Usually the value will just be found in one of those columns. As the Table I search is very long and has many searchfields and multiple of those will relate to more than one column, is there an easy way to do it in VBA? As I did it by using the "or" field when designing a query, but this seems very slow and unstable.
I am creating a a text box where the user enters a text then clicks an option from the option that is used as the criteria for the search e.g. Last Name, Phone , address then a command button wil run a query.

Hello
I have a main form with a search command button in the header. This search facility looks for information in a subform. At the moment I can't seem to get it to work.
Main form called Building
Subform called LineTypeSub
Field its trying to search is called Line
Here's the code I have at the moment.
Private Sub cmdSearchLine_Click()
DoCmd.ShowAllRecords
DoCmd.GoToControl ("Line")
DoCmd.FindRecord Me!SearchLine
Line.SetFocus
SearchLine = Line.Text
SearchLine.SetFocus
strSearch = SearchLine.Text
End Sub
If anyone could help that would be great, thanks.
Is there a way of searching a rich text box for any text which is highlighted and then deleting that text? I cannot find an answer to this anywhere..
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a form with two text boxes and a button. I want to be able to type a value into the first Text box click the button and the second text box to be filled with the value which is stored in the Table.
The first Textbox is called barTxt, The second Textbox is called CustTxt The button is called SearchBtn and the Table is called BookInTable. I have been trying to use the code.
Code:
Private Sub SearchBtn_Click()
DoCmd.FindRecord Me.BarTxt.Value, , True, , True
CustTxt.Value = "SELECT BookInTable.Customer FROM BookInTable " & _
" WHERE Customer = """ & Nz(Me.BarTxt) & """" & _
" ORDER BY Customer"
End Sub
This however instead of displaying the Value for customer which is stored in the BookInTable. Displays The code SELECT BookInTable.Customer FROMBookInTable " & _ " WHERE Customer = """ & Nz(Me.BarTxt) & """" & _ " ORDER BY Customer"

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi everyone. This probably sounds simple, but I cannot find the answer here, google, or my books (don't know if I'm searching the right words). I have a main form with five parmeter values, any of these acn be filled in, to filter the results in a query. I created a subform to display these results, however I cannot get the results to come up in the subform inside the main form. All I can get is the subform opening up in its own window, and even when this happens the subform inside the mainform stays the same. The only way I get the subform inside to update is by going into design mode and then back into formview mode. What have I missed or what am I doing wrong?
Thanks to anyone who takes time on this question.
Hi all,
I have done a quick search for this on the forum so I apologise if I have missed the thread that talks about this.
Basically I am interested in doing a text search on the SQL used in my Access queries.
Is this possible and how?
Thanks,
Matt.
Hey all,
I did a search and i found a thread that seemed like it would answer my question but for some reason the attachment isnt working. :(
Okay heres the question..
I have a form and it contains 3 fields and 3 command buttons.
When i hit the command button it uses a query to display the results.
What i want to do is instead of having the results display in a new window, i would like it to display on the same form .. maybe on the bottom of it.
Should i use a subform or listbox/combobox..
Can anyone help me figure this out?
Thanks in advance
I have one main table. There are about 5 main fields that my users seach often. Usually they just open the table and filter. I do not like that.
I want to build a form that has the 5 main fields available as search fields.
Name
SS
Company
Date
COC
are the fields most often searched for. Can I make a form that will open with a blank subform on the bottom and these 5 fields empty across the top. Once a user enters into one of the fields and hits enter it will bring up the those records?
Thanks.
I'm novice in access 2007 I've a project that contain a Table a form with Subform bound to that table, on tthe main form I've unbound [text boxes] and a [search button]. I want that my form act as a search form , so when I click the search button it show the only result an that table subform. I've read a couples of article, it look like I've to use some VBA code!
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a main form "Furniture_CatCodeAssets" which shows detail specifics about certain furniture item codes (width, height, colour etc.). I have a subform "Furniture_AssetsSubform" which shows all of the asset numbers associated with that furniture item code.I have a combo box that allows you to filter by furniture category, that then updates a list box that shows only the item codes associated with that category. When an item code is selected in the list box the main form and the subform update to show what was selected. (I mention this only in case it is causing an interruption - they work perfectly.)
What I am trying to do now is add a text box and button that will allow you to search in the subform to find a specific asset number and go to that item code on the main form.
I have the following code on the command button:
Set rst = Forms!furniture_CatCodeAsset.Furniture_AssetsSubfo rm.Form.RecordsetClone
rst.FindFirst "[Asset Number]=" & Me.textSearch
If Not rst.NoMatch Then
Forms!furniture_CatCodeAsset!Furniture_AssetsSubfo rm.Form.Bookmark = rst.Bookmark
Else
MsgBox "No match found, please check your asset number and try again."
End If
Me.textSearch = Null
rst.Close
Set rst = Nothing
Which returns the message box that nothing was found even though I know I that asset number exists.
I have made my Search Form that will search through my tables, some how I have a syntax error for the following: year, Section and ID, these fields are not text I use numeric values so I think the search is not working for that reason, I am not sure how can I fix it though do I have do add val() or sth.

I have a list box pulling information from a table. It include fields for last name, first name, primary number, secondary number, and id; of course with different names. I display first and last name, but the rest are hidden. What would be ideal is if I could begin typing someones first or last name in the text box and it would just start either narrowing the list, like in itunes, or would start skipping down the list and would be highlighted. For example. If I was searching the number for walmart, i could go to the text box and type "wal" and it might highlight "wallace, james"; and if I added and "m" to that, it would skip down to "walmart".
I would settle for autofill and click a search command button when I'm done, and it takes me to that entry in the list box. I copied some code off the internet. Don't know if it'll work, but here is what I got.
Private Sub txtSearch_AfterUpdate()
Dim srchstrng As String
srchstrng = Me.txtSearch.Value
SQL = " SELECT Phone.last_name, Phone.first_name FROM Phone_"
WHERE (((Phone.last_name) Like '*" & srchstrng & "*'));"
Form.RecordSource = SQL
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdRefreshPage
End Sub
It says there is a problem with the where clause.
Hi, I'm just wondering if it's possible to display the result of a query on a subform which does not have a relationship with any other table.
What I'm doing is creating a search form where a query is built from the users input (through combo boxes and text boxes) of what table, attribute and condition they want to search from. When they press the search button, I want the result to be displayed in a datasheet below the selection criteria
The first thing I thought of using to display information with was a subform, but I think the purpose of having the subform is so that it can be linked with a form. So, is there another control or way of displaying results. The results can come from any table.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have a problem to make a search form in access, I want to divise my form, at the top will be the search criter (8 fields) and in details section will appear the result. I use a continuous subform with a query on the searched fields.
But I can't actualise or open the subform with the new results.
I would like a button to start my search or a system to automatically show the result on AfterUpdate event.
Can you help me, please? i trying to solve this for a long time...
Thank you,
Mrflo
I have attached a (slimmed down) Access 2007 database used for Asset Management and fault reporting. It opens on the main form which has a number of subforms and one sub-subform.
To make the form as user friendly as possible I am placing a number of unbound text boxes on the FormHeader to be used for search queries. The AfterUpdate event for each text box executes the necessary query, searching on the contents of the text box.
This works absolutely fine for the 'Colloquial Name' text box and associated field - this field is in the main table, RTI_Assets. The main form frmRTI_Assets is bound to this table. The query executed is called 'Colloquial Search'.
I cannot however get the 'Fault Reference' search to work on the field Supplier_Reference in the RTI_Fault table (the subform subfrmRTI_Fault is bound to this table). The query executed is called 'Fault Reference Search'.
There are 15 records in the assets table and 2 records in the faults table - with supplier references 555 and 101010.
I get prompted with Enter Parameter Value for the field RTI_Fault.Supplier_Reference if I enter 555 in the text box. Whatever I enter in this prompt I get returned to the first record.
I have a form with a subform which searches the database using multiple criteria using Text Boxes and a search button. One of which is a date range which is entered into 2 text boxes(SDTxt and EDTxt). At first glance the code works. If I enter 03/05/2015 in SDText and say 24/05/2015 in EDTxt and hit the search button(SearchBtn) the correct records are shown in the subform (Office Subform). But if I enter 05/06/2015 in SDTxt and 13/06/2015 into EDTxt not only does it show the records between the 2 dates but also all records from May. I have put on a cut down version of the code which just shows the date range search.
Code:
Private Sub SearchBtn_Click()
Dim strWhere As Strin
If IsDate(.SDTxt.Value) And IsDate(.EDTxt.Value) Then
strWhere = strWhere & _
[code]....
The following works when I am searching a form on a value in a sub-form where the value is text
Private Sub find_boats_by_enq_no_Click()
Dim stDocName As String
Dim strSQL As String
Dim trz As String
trz = InputBox("Enquiry number??")
stDocName = "find_boats_by_enq_no"
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM boats INNER JOIN prices ON boats.[boats-prices#] = prices.[boats-prices#] " _
& "WHERE prices.[stn-enquiry-number-1]= '" & trz & "'"
Me.RecordSource = strSQL
End Sub
What changes do I need to make if "prices.[stn-enquiry-number-1]" is a number rather than text. I'm thinking I dont require some of the "dims" and I'm not sure if I don't need to do something with the quote marks...
I have only 1 table that im working with I simply want to have a form that runs a search on one of the fields and returns the results.
This is what I have:
1 Table
ID : Autonumber
ProblemType : Text
Technician : Text
I want to create a form that has a main form with a text field that i can input a string of text and run a search on the problemtype field. And return all the results in the subform with based on keyword that was inputed in the form above. I want the results to display Problem type and Technician fields. What is the best what to do this?
