Ok, I know this is a very simple question..and most people's reactions (including mine) would be to say "Try the search button" or some such thing..so I would just like to say I have tried and could not find the answer >.<
I have a subform with 5 fields displaying information on a specific customers service tickets... I am attempting to use OnClick to open a new form with the information in the ServiceID field used as a filter...so when ya click on a service id number it opens a new form with all fields for that service ticket visible.
I know this has to be a very simple question, but I am just finishing with a basic access class in college and trying to expand into the areas they failed to cover, thnks in advance >.<
Attached is a project I am working on. It's a personal reminder program. The problem I am having is that when I enter the actual completion date at the bottom and click on the "Complete Task" button, I want the record to be copied to the History table, then the Start Date and Due Dates reset based on the Frequency. If someone could look at the On Click event procedure for this button and help me get this fixed, I would appreciate it very much. I don't know much about VB or SQL coding.
i was wondering since i am not so good at VB, if you can help me out with this one problem i have.
i haver this combo box, and i have 2 items listed in it, and when i highlight the correct code, i want the CMD button to open up the correct form page.
i know it goes someting like this but i do not know the correct syntax.
Code:Private Sub Command31_Click()if [you choose this list], [open Form1]Elseif [you choose this list], [open form2]End Sub
I have a tab control with buttons nested inside of it calling to open a form - but when I go to test the buttons, they do not open the form that the wizard selected. I get the error message: invalid outside procedure. If i copy the button into the main portion of the form outside of the tab control - it seems to work. Any ideas would help. Thanks again!
I have a button in a form that needs to change the text in a field named idStatus from "Assigned" to "Returned"
I have tried using an expression like this "[Form]![Field]=12" in the OnClick spot but it returned an error. There is no "custom made" wizard for this and my VB skills are lacking.
Once again, thanks! (I know I post alot but this forum is amazing!)
I have query that filters my list in Access. The list can be filtered in different ways(like using a combobox). This is the criteria of the query for the field Title of the table Book:
Code: Like IIf([Forms]![frmName]![cmbSearch].[OnClick];"*" & [Forms]![frmName]![txtSearchBar] & "*"; [Book]![Title])
What I want is when the cmbSearch is clicked, the list must show the Tiltes where the title of the book contains the words of the search bar. When its not clicked on that button, the list must show all the titles.
Here is the SQL of the query:
Code: SELECT Book.ID, Book.Title FROM Book WHERE (((Book.Title) Like IIf([Forms]![frmName]![cmbSearch].[OnClick],"*" & [Forms]![frmName]![txtSearchBar] & "*", [Book]![Title]))
The problem is the list filters whether I click on a different cmdButton or an optionButton. I dont know why [cmbSearch].[OnClick] doesnt work.
I want a command button to "Requery" a combobox. the combobox uses a query to determine the records listed (it lists incomplete records). after completing the record, i'd like to hit a command button that will "requery" the combobox so that the recently completed record is no longer listed.
I have a form for creating a new database record for a list of "components".
One button "add_component" adds a new record. One text input "component_input" allows you to enter in the "name" of the component. One button "save_component" saves the record.
The component_input and save_component have their default "enabled" property set to "No" in their properties list.
I only want the component_input and save_component form objects to be enabled once the "add_component" button has been clicked. Once the "save_component" button is clicked, I want them to return to being disabled. This will prevent any accidental over-writing of records.
I have used "build event" for the "add_component" button...
Code: if [macroError] <> 0 then ## errorMessage here ## else setProperty control name: component_input property: enabled
[Code] ....
And then I have used "build event" for the "save_component" button...
Code: if [macroError] <> 0 then ## errorMessage here ## else setProperty control name: component_input
[Code] ....
Now, this works when add_component is first clicked, however when I click save_component neither component_input or save_component become disabled again.
I'm using VBA to prompt users for two required fields. One I can do, but with more than one I get into issues like only 1 message box appearing at a time. If both fields are blank I want both messages to appear. Here's my code, it's in an On click function:
If IsNull(req_file_num) = True Then MsgBox "Required field: File #. The appropriate file number must be entered before this PO's status can be changed to Filed." GoTo Err_Command_158_Click2 End If
If Not [req_filed_date] Then [req_process_status_rec_id] = 8
MsgBox "Your changes have been processed. This purchase order now has a status of Filed." DoCmd.Close acForm, "frm_req_file" GoTo Err_Command_158_Click2 Else: MsgBox "Required field: File Date. The appropriate date must be entered before this PO's status can be changed to Filed." GoTo Err_Command_158_Click2
End If
Err_Command_158_Click2: End Sub
I realize that it only shows one message box because I have the GoTo Err_Command_158_Click2 command, but I couldn't figure out how else to keep it from continuing through the code. If both "req_file_num" and "req_filed_date" are null, then I don't want the "req_process_status_rec_id" to change to 8 and have the form close.
I am new to VBA for access. I am working on a form as a user interface. I have added an picture to the form. It looks small, and not clear because of the size, and each image has different size. I would like to know if there is a VBA code that will allow me to click on it, and then it will open in another window so it is bigger with the right sizes. I attempted like this:
Prova is another form and Campo1 is the field with the picture.
I also need to save about 120,000 images. I wonder if the best solution is to use the attachment for the field type or another. What format should I Whereas in the mask I preview. And if Access internally saves the images or not.

I have an access form and there is a textbox in which i enter a string and have a search button so I need the onclick event procedure to search a string from my table. so how do i do it in access 2010.
I would like to make clickable labels on my form, so if the user has any questions about the field, clicking on the label would bring up a message box that would give them more information. I know how to write onclick events one by one for every label, but there are a lot of them, and I feel like there has to be a better way.
I put the label names, and the text I'd like for the message box in a table, and I'd like to have a module that will allow me to click on a label, and have the right text come up.
I've researched ways to do this and have come up with nothing. The farthest I've gotten is an array tied to the form open event that just displays all the message boxes from first to last, one after the other. I believe that's on the right track, but is not a workable solution as is. I need to be able to tie the message box to the actual label the user clicks.
Visual Studio IDE environment and I have been working with Access VBA for almost a year now.
I am very used to generating my form controls in runtime and being able to create some cool user interface interactions by being able to say btnExample.OnClick += MyDynamicClickFunction
I have a continuous subform which essentially comprises of a textbox that shows a field from a query.
The text in that box is essentially a few letters and a few numbers - what I am wondering is if I can have an on click event for the textbox, that when a user clicks the text it takes them to the record (in a different form) that matches the text contained in the textbox they clicked?
So on a command button I have this code in the OnClick event. When I click the button it will ask me to enter the name if blank but if I enter something in that field and then delete the data is bypasses this. Does the same reason field, Why?
Code: If IsNull(Me.CE) Then MsgBox "Please enter your name" Me.CE.SetFocus Exit Sub
I am try to open a form from another and set a button's OnClick properties to a function and I keep getting an error message..Run-Time Error 2450Cannot find the referenced form ..And this is the code I am using.
I tried to dynamically set image OnClick property to function with couple of attributes. Everything works well, but... it launches the function automatically without any mouse click! What is causing this? I want to execute the function only on the result of mouse click.
I have a table that holds the SQL texts for ca. 1000 Select queries (mostly minor variants that are used to programmatically swap out RowSource strings for combo boxes). I'd like to have a quick and easy way to open/review/modify these queries.
One strategy would be to display the SQL strings in a field on a Datasheet form, then use an onClick event on a text box linked to the SQL-holding field (or perhaps an onClick event tied to an unbound text box on the form) to open the associated query. That would allow me to view the SQL of the query that I want to open, allow me to quickly scroll through the list of stored SQL texts, and give me options for sorting or limiting the SQL-texts displayed in the datasheet form.
But, I can't seem to get the onClick event to work. The problem seems to be that I can't figure out how to pass the SQL string contained in the field to a function that will use that string to open the query .
I have a tabbed form in a navigation form with a chart on it. The records source of the chart is a query. The query runs when you click the tab and takes a long time. I changed the Row Source of chart to "" and that eliminates the query running on form load. I've read many posts on changing that row source when a command button is clicked. I tried
in the onclick event of the command button. This doesn't work. I've tried many variations of the syntax. I don't know if I have to tell the query to run after the row source is changed.
On a side note, the query criteria is based on beginning and end dates entered into text boxes on the form. This all works if the query loads when the form is opened.
I have a onclick tied to a label (for decoration purposes) that when clicked it launches VBA that essentially updates a form. All that part works except it will not recognize any changed value of the field I was last in?
Just to try to explain best as I can what happens.
- Form gets opened - I change field (quantity field) - I click the Label - It reverts to pre-existing value.
if I click off of the text field first then do the onclick - it recognizes just fine.
I am working on a database which has two tables used as part of a registration and login process.
I would like a couple of fields from table one to automatically update in table two, once the fields in table one are populated without using an 'on click' event.
The reason I would prefer not to use an onclick is because the completion of the form used to generate the users table does not require any buttons for the data to save.
Hi, sorry but i have a new issue. Ok, here it goes.
I have a check box on my form that "black lists" that related record. I wish to warn the user that when they click/after update the check box, they will no longer be able to work with this contact unless an administrator unblocks the record.
Here is the VBA for what i have done so far.
Private Sub orgMisc_AfterUpdate() Dim intAnswer As Integer intAnswer = MsgBox("Are you sure you wish to Black List this contact?" _ , vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Time Saver") If intAnswer = vbYes Then orgMisc = True Else orgMisc = False End If End Sub
This works fine except for 1 problem. It prompts me if i change my mind and uncheck the check box. So basically, if (default) is False Then OnClick i want the above VBA to execute. If the check box already isset to TRUE then ignore the above VBA and orgMisc (checkbox) change to FALSE.
If any 1 can offer advice or knows how to solve this issue, that would be great :)
