Modules & VBA :: Mandatory Data Entry In Field Before Moving To Another Field
Aug 22, 2014I 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.
1st Field In Copy Of Form Will Not Allow Moving To Next Field
Jun 27, 2005Okay. 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.

Moving Text From One Field To Another
Jun 28, 2006Hi, 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!!!

Forms :: Creating Required Field In A Form Before Moving To Next Record
Feb 5, 2014I 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.
Modules & VBA :: Moving Rich Text From Access Memo Field To A Word Text Box

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.

Moving Within A Program
Jan 4, 2006Hi,
I have a delimma and am not sure how to proceed. It falls under the "You want what? When?" category. Basically, I have created an Access program with several (13) related tables and numerous forms. This program mimics an interview we are using for research and has a lot of VBA coding behind it with quite a few skip patterns, value checking, etc. During the testing phase, I was asked to allow the user to be able to go back and check a response to any previous answer at any given point in time. I hear numerous clicks of people running away from this question. This one has me frustrated and not too happy. I am wondering if there is some way I can show a copy of any form and the data contained within it for the present ID? IF it is a copy then the data, I presume would be locked and the user would not be able to change it. Also, I would want to bring the user back to the point where they were prior to going backwards. Feel my pain yet? Of course as I ponder this I can envision that they are going to want to change a value, because maybe a respondent "changed their mind" about a previous question. But, I am sure they would not want to work their way back to where they were, but want to jump back (forward), all the while I need to insure that any skip patterns that may have changed due to a change in data are followed and if a question that was answered before is now skipped then that data needs to be cleaned. I am concerned that as I begin to meander through this issue that I will have "duplicate ID" issues because as I move backward, possibly through several forms and tables and then move forward again the DB will think I am adding two items rather than changing the one. I.e., it will think I have two identical IDs because it already has one from the original pass and as it moves forward and runs through the automated saves that the second pass would represent a duplicate ID, thus crashing the program.
I know this is a multi-pronged question, but I would like to hear some suggestions as to how others with more experience would handle this. I am grateful for your time in reading this and would be even more so for any responses.
Peace!
Moving Range
Mar 16, 2008Hi all,
I'm new in this forum and can be considered as beginner in Ms Access. I tried to make a SPC database and currently stuck at calculating the data range for moving range graph.
The question is, how to calculate range between 2 consecutive data and then sum it.
For example:
A, 195
B, 198
C, 196
D, 194
Thus the range between A and B is 3 (198-195), B and C is 2 (198-196), C and D is 2 (396-194). The total range is 7 (3+2+2)
Anyone has the idea?
Thanks.

Else
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNext

I am puzzles by this? Any clues how to fix this and get the control moving to the next record (some subform has 10-15 records)

View 1 Replies View RelatedProblems Moving To 2003
Sep 27, 2005I have had a split data base (version 2000) running on Windows 2000 with no problems. Our office has upgraded the computers to Windows XP Professional Version 2002 and Office Access 2003. I cut the links to the backend and imported the tables back into the 2000 version. I then moved the data base over to the XP machines and everything worked great. I then split the data base and every event results in debug mode. I believe it has something to do with the References but maybe not. If so, what do I need to put in, or take out? Please help. I can provide any information you need.

Jan 31, 2006I 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.

Moving Entries From One Table To Another
Jun 12, 2006So I have 2 tables, the first is for "open" orders (where entries get edited changed and deleted), and the Second is for "finished" orders (where once an order is completed it should move from the open orders table to the finshed one where it will no change and will remain for futre reference)
I need help with the transfering part of this problem. I would ideally like to make a form that allows you to pull up the info for the open order then edit it to finally add the finished order to the other table. Im not sure where to start on this one.
Moving/ Archiving Data
Jul 24, 2006Hi all,
currently on my db it stores data on various projects, and these projects are sorted by a status of on hold, on going, or finished. What im trying do is move only the projects that are finished but still keeping a record of them so we can view them in the future.
i was thinking maybe i could move the finished projects into another db? but not sure how to do, or is there a better way to achieve this?
thank you
Moving A Split Database
Oct 3, 2006I have a database that I've created for someone else to use. It's split into a front and back end. The user will be placing the front end on her desktop PC and the back end on a network server.
She also will be taking the database home to use from time to time. My problem is that when the database is split, upon opening, it looks for the back end on the network drive, which is unavailable when she's away from the office.
Is there a way to tell the Access to look in a directory relative to the one it's in?
Moving Database To Another Server
Dec 3, 2006Howdy,
I have created a few split multiuser databases in Access 97 that my company has used over the past few years. Currently, we are trying to move everything to a new network server. When I did a simple copy and paste on Friday moving everything to the other server it seemed to work fine. Until I tried to open any of the databases. I kept getting the message that they all were read only.
Do I need to bring the database back together before transferring it? I also plan on converting the databases to Access 2003. What precautions should I take in doing this?
Thanks for any and all information you can pass along.

Moving Data In Access
Jan 28, 2007Hi
:) I am creating a program in VB.NET with an access 2003 database. This program will be in 2 physical locations. This is a program that sells tickets. At the end of the day I need to be able to get that days sales data off the remote location and update the main location with that information. This will be sales totals only. The user will plug in a thumb drive to move the data from one machine to the other. Due to the physical layout and other considerations this is the best option. The only action I want the user to have to do is to place the thumb drive in the USB port and hit the “down load” button. Then on the main location the user should be able to just plug in the thumb drive and hit up load. The database needs to be updated with the data from the remote location. What is the best way to do this?
Thanks in advance.
Moving From Excel To Access
Mar 29, 2007Hi All,
I have an Excel file with multiple worksheets using VLOOKUPS betweent he sheets and various formulas within the sheets, mainly basic arithmetic and also ROUNDUP.
I am wanting to transfer all this over to Access so that it can be edited by 2 computers at the same time and I need all the formulas to go with it. What's the easiest way to do this? I'm not a very experienced Access user and basically have no idea how to put in formulas in Access.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am happy to email to the excel file to anyone who wants to take a look.
Thanks,
Michael
