Moving Text From One Field To Another
Jun 28, 2006
Hi, I have a form set up, among other fields in the form is a Weekly update
free form field. I have another field called Historical Weekly updates. What
I want to happen is that when a user clicks in the Weekly update field, the
text that is in there should pop down to the Historical field and have the
date post for the move next to the text in the historical field. I don't know if this is a click action, if its' a macro or if it's even possible. Any
help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks!!!

We need to move rich text from an Access memo field to a Word text box. So far the best Ive been able to come up with is in the code below. In this code pprs!What is a record set field of a table memo field that is bound to a text box enabled for rich text. The rich text seems to be stored as html as so I can get word to convert it by enclosing it in html tags.
Dim What As Word.Shape
Set What = doc.Shapes.AddTextbox(msoTextOrientationHorizontal , doc.PageSetup.LeftMargin, 225, 534, 0)
Dim sPath As String
sPath = "G:Temp.html"
Open sPath For Output As 1
Print #1, "<HTML>" & pprs!What & " </HTML>"
Close #1
What.TextFrame.TextRange.InsertFile (sPath)

I have five text boxes with a separate box for the date that automatically inserts when I enter something in the text box. Is it possible to have it set up to only allow me to enter information in the first box and at a later date when I enter more info in, automatically move everything down to the next box, and so fourth.
Sorry if this is in the wrong section, but I am not sure if this is something simple in the box properties, or if I need code.
thanks

I need to display some of the insruction lines in unbound / bound text box that will gradually moves up.
Example :
"This multiuser client server db is licenced to "ABC & Co.". This sofrware is to reduce cost of production and it increases speed of your production process more...."
These instruction lines may be arojnd 10-15 lines. I need to display it as non-stop moving up text massages on the main form once the data base is opened.
Is this possible? How?
With kind regards,
Ashfaque

I have an Access form that is tied to a recordset. When I Set Focus on 1 text box in particular, I move the caret with the keyboard arrows left-right, and the caret moves and flashes on top of the text characters, basically overlaps the character. When I then try to delete or edit the text, it moves the caret by itself to a different location in the text box and starts adding the text to that location. When I finally get the text how I want it, I set focus on another control, and it occasionally deletes random characters in the text box.
The only way I have been able to work around this is to copy and paste the current text into Notepad, edit it there, and then paste it back into the text box.

I have a form that users will use to add new records (customers).
There is a field named VAT_Registration_no
First of all i want some code to check for duplicates in that field only,before entering the next field.If the record exists i want to show a msgbox and set focus to the vat_registration_no field. Also I want the same thing to happen if the vat_registration_no field is empty.here is what i have tried:
Private Sub VAT_registration_no_AfterUpdate()
Dim btest As Boolean
If VAT_registration_no = "" Or IsNull(Me.VAT_registration_no) Then
MsgBox "Please enter a Vat Registration No.", vbOKOnly, "error"
Me.VAT_registration_no.SetFocus
Else
btest = True
End If
End Sub
and to all other fields:
Private Sub textfield_Enter()
If Not btest Then
Me.textfield.SetFocus
End If
End Sub
If I just press enter to go straight to the second field I dont get a msg. If I write something and delete it and press enter i get the msg but when I press ok the cursor goes to the next field. I want it to go to the vat_registration_no field again. And I also want this to happen even if dont write something and then delete it.

I have a form in which user will enter few values but I need users to enter the comment in relevant text box too only if they have any non zero value.
I have attached an example for reference....where red encircled portion is for values and blue is for relevant comments. If value is non zero then user should be enforced to enter the comment too......system should not allow user to move forward or backward until there is some comment.

Okay. I am certain that I am missing something real easy.
I have a somewhat large, form. I needed to offer users a similar form, but with a few field changes.
So, I copied the form, added the new fields.
If I work with an existing record and do not change the 1st field's data (idnumber), then no problem.
BUT if I try changing that idnumber or adding a new record, I cannot exit that 1st number.
There is no afterexit info for it or other issue that I can see. (But am I 'blind'?)
I appreciate any ideas.

I have created a Form based from a Table. On one of the fields, I need to be required inside the Form before moving to the next record of that form. I can not make the required field in the table, because I have to append information day to day.
Also, the required field is a combo box option that is limit to the list.
What kind of Code I can do inside the form of the specific field to make it required before clicking onto the next record. It does not matter if the processor closes out of the form before updating, only if moving to the next record.

I have a single field in a table called "Client Contact", where users enter a semicolon between the name, address, and city state & zip. My reason for this was so we could copy client info with a single copy and paste (like from an email). But, on the final report, it needs to have these three parts split up into different lines, or even different textboxes. I can't find a way to do that.

I'm trying to pull a date from a table into a text box on a form tab control using DLookup and I just can't figure out what is wrong with my DLookup expression:
=DLookUp("DateOrdered","tDateOrdered","PrNumber=" & [PrNumber]) ----- (DateOrdered is short date, PrNumber is text, db is split Access 2013)
Whats missing in this expression? I've tried every criteria variant I could find but to no avail.

We have a database that we use to track the tablets in our organization, a combination of Apple, Android, and Windows.
We label them with a hostname depending on their branding. Example below.:
APPLE01
APPLE02
APPLE03
ANDROID01
ANDROID02
ANDROID03
WINDOWS01
WINDOWS02
In the database we use the field name HOSTNAME for these entries. When sorting the field, due to it being a text field, we get the traditional sort of
APPLE01
APPLE02
APPLE10
APPLE100
APPLE101
APPLE11
APPLE110
ANDROID01
ANDROID02
ANDROID10
ANDROID100
ANDROID101
ANDROID11
ANDROID110
We would like to have them show up as
APPLE01
APPLE02
APPLE10
APPLE11
APPLE100
APPLE101
APPLE110
ANDROID01
ANDROID02
ANDROID10
ANDROID11
ANDROID100
ANDROID101
ANDROID110
What is the best way to tackle this?

I am wondering if there is a way to automate the pasting function of text from one field into several others in a table without losing the data that is already in the field.
As an example: in 20 fields I have "I love potatoes" and I want to paste the text string, "And I love tomatoes too" in every field without overwriting the original text.
Thanks.
Steve

Produce a query that returns a yes or no (Y or N) field if other text field contains particular text (with wildcard on either side).
Idea is to have a column for each preset word.

I am trying to delete some text from a text field. There are almost 8000 records and almost all of them are like this.
Example: johnsmith-2.network.home.com
I want to delete everything after the dot and including the dot, to end up with "johnsmith-2". How do I do that? I think I can do it in a query, but don't remember how.

I need to convert my text data to a number but when I convert using the VALUE function or use "format cells" to the numbers category, I loose the leading zeros. I need to keep them for sorting purposes.
What formula do I use?

I am having a database in access and i want to highlight particular text from nearby column to the next column. For example,
--GCCCAGGCCCAAGAATGTCGCCGT GGAGGACTGTCTGTACATCAACGTGTTCGTGCCACGGCCCAGGCCCAAGAATGTCGCCGTCATGCTGT
GGATCTTCGGGGGTGGCTTCTGACAAGCTATTGTGTTCGAAT ACACTGATT
--CGAATGAACGCTGTCCCTTCCACTGCTGGCAACATGCTCCCAGCCTTCGACAATGGCCCTCAATTCGA
GGACTGGTTT CAACGAATGAACGCTGTCCCTTCCACTGCTGGAACTTCCGACTCCTTGTTGCCTAGAATGTCGCCGTCATGC
The first column text it should take as query and then it should only search the adjacent cell and highlight that. While searching in the internet i came across a code also, But i dont know whether i can use that code or not.
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[Search]
(
@searchTerm nvarchar(100),
@style nvarchar(100) = 'font-weight:bold; background-color:yellow',
@maxLen INT = 100
[code]....

I have a form where I would like to validate (restrict) choices in subsequent fields.
Example
Combobox choices are Air, Fire, Water, Earth, Space
In the form I have 4 fields = Material1, Material2, Material3, Material4. (all in same record on my table)
Basically I need the validation to not allow duplicates across the 4 fields.
something like....
[Material1] <> [Material2] or [Material3]or [Material4]
I am not sure of the proper syntax for the validation field in the Form Properties. Or if I am even putting it in the right place.
