Multi-column List Box

Apr 19, 2006

Hi there,

I'm sure I'm not being dim, but I really can't figure how to do this.

I have a list box with two columns. One column (bound) is a name, the other is a unique ID. I need to transfer both the Name and the ID to a second list box (again, two columns).

I can get it to do this with single selections, but not multiple ones, and this is what I need.

Any ideas?

Cheers

Forms :: List Boxes - Single Column Versus Multi Column

Apr 3, 2013

How do I select the first column of a multi-column list box (called "List1") for a query.

A single column list box works fine.

Code:

SELECT Tble_Employee.Emp_No, [forms]![attendee_form]![list1] AS SelectedCourse
FROM Tble_Employee;

Multi-column List Box

Oct 1, 2004

I have a list box derived from a two column SQL select. When I try to use the user selected element I only get the first column data value.

In debugging I have tried ...

Ret = MsgBox(Me.List6.Value, vbOKCancel)

and...

Ret = MsgBox([Forms]![MeetingStatus]![List6], vbOKCancel)

Both of which return the selected row, first column value only.

I can find no help on how to return the content of the second column or the selection as a whole.

Filter Using Multiple / Multi-Column List Box

Sep 17, 2012

I'm not familiar with listbox yet and i want to filter my form using it.

I have two separate listboxes which display "category" & "type" data from the same table.

Here is the situation i wanted for my listbox.

1. Select one data from "category" listbox.
2. Then it will automatically filter data from "type" listbox or it will list all related "type" data corresponding to "category" data.
3. Then select one data from "type" listbox and it will filter all related data on the form/sub-form.

Is it possible to do that way? Can i do it on multicolumn listbox instead of using 2 listbox?

Use Multi-select List Box To Filter A Report With Two List Boxes

Nov 20, 2013

Allen Browne's "Use a multi-select list box to filter a report" solution, in particularly with two multi-select list boxes? The code works fine for me for either box so long as I code it for one box alone. Combining the two into one code results in a type mismatch error. I'm trying to use the code to pass the contents of both multi-select boxes as Where conditions to a report. Both boxes are based on number fields. To try to isolate the problem, I've removed Allen's setDescription and OpenArgs conditions. We're unfortunately still on Access 2003 as the company desires to squeeze every dime by using until end-of-life next year.

Code:
Private Sub cmdPreview_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Handler
'Purpose: Open the report filtered to the items selected in the list box.
Dim varItem As Variant 'Selected items

[Code] .....

Multi Column Report

Feb 15, 2005

I have a reporting need that I believe (hope) is not unique

My customer needs to print out information about a customer that is compused of information specific to the customer (keyed on customer ID) and sets of information about their purchases in different categories (food, cars, clothes and pets). Each of these categories has different identifying characteristics. (These are represented by subReports on the report).

No problem printing out the report looking like this

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Customer Name - Mike Lester
Custoner Address - 101 Main St.,
AnyTown,CO 11111

Food
Beets 10 lbs $1.25 Green
Lettuce 1 lbs $ .78 Green
Bananas 20 lbs $ .33 Yellow

Cars
Mustang 1966 $23,888
VW 1955 $222
VW 2002 $23,000
Cadillac 2004 $44,999

Clothes
Belts 5
Shirts 9
Socks 11
Pants 5
Hats 1

Pets
Goldfish 2 Fish
Beagle 1 Dog
Great Dane 3 Dog
Cocateil 2 Bird
Macaw 1 Bird
------------------------------------------------------------------------

The problem is the customer wants the report to use the entire page. I tried positioning the subReports in two columns (left and right) but the problem is based on the number of items in each subReport the report ends up looking dumb and wasting paper (also it doesn't look very professional)

What I want to happen is the report to print as many subReports as it can on the left column (without leaving any hanging orphans) then start printing then next subreport at the beginning of the right column. See example below: (Sorry about the ~ Symbol being used to represent a space, for some reason the text box wouldn't save my formatting)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Customer Name - Mike Lester ~~~~~~~~Clothes
Custoner Address - 101 Main St., ~~~~~~~Belts 5
AnyTown,CO 11111 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Shirts 9
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Socks 11
Food ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Pants 5
Beets 10 lbs $1.25 Green~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Hats 1
Lettuce 1 lbs $ .78 Green
Bananas 20 lbs $ .33 Yellow ~~~~~~~~Pets
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Goldfish 2 Fish
Cars ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Beagle 1 Dog
Mustang 1966 $23,888 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Great Dane 3 Dog
VW 1955 $222 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Cocateil 2 Bird
VW 2002 $23,000 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Macaw 1 Bird
Cadillac 2004 $44,999
------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is probably the longest question of the day. Does anyone have any
ideas or examples. I am hoping that this doesn't involve any massive VBA
or using Word. There are 200 other reports, and the customer doesn't currently use Word.
The entire application is 100% Access.

Formatting Date In Multi-Column Combo Box

Apr 14, 2015

I have combo boxes that contain attorney names and phone numbers. The attorney name is what is filled into the field when a selection is made from the combo box into the form. The phone number is just there for the occasions that the person managing the data in the database needs to call that attorney. Just a quicker way instead of having to go to another form to find the phone number. I created a query to combine the first and last name to one field (FullName) and this is where the combo box gets it's info.

When I run the query, the phone number is shown formatted as I want it to ((###)###-####), but in the combo box in the form, the phone number has no format to it. What I need to do to get the phone number to show up formatted in the combo box list?

Multi-Column Combo-box Won't Bresk Down In Text Boxes

Aug 16, 2005

My form's 10 column combo-box (based on a query) won't break into text cells. Some of the columns contain numbers, some test, some phone #s. All columns show when I click the Combo-box in Form View. Access Help File said to put:
=Forms!Customers!CompanyName.Column(1) in the ControlSource for the text cell. Tried that and was returned #Name? for any of the fields in which I tried it.
My expression was:
=frmSpartanStudentBehaviorLog!Last_FirstUC.Column (3)
The other properties in combo-box are set correctly: ColumnCount=10, Column Widths are correct.

I also tried the expression:
=Last_FirstUC.Column(2) but got the same result #Name?

I'm baffled. As a very new user, I'll appreciate any assistance. Thanks.

Modules & VBA :: Get Other Than Bound Column From Multi-select Listbox

Feb 6, 2015

I have two listboxes. One for Activities and the other for Organizations.

I set the Org listbox to be multi-select so I could run a loop on that listbox to join multiple Orgs to a single Activity. That part works well.

To do so, I am using the bound column (which is the pkey value) from the multi select listbox, and on the single select listbox I'm using the ListboxName.value to gather the pkey for the "1" side of this 1:Many series of inserts.

Now... I want to use one of the other-than-bound-column value from the multi-select listbox, but I don't know how. When setting a value I only know of the use of :

Code:
ListBoxOrganizations.ItemData(varItem)

and I don't know how to do the equivalent of

Code:
ListBoxOrganizations.ItemData(varItem's column(2).value)

yes, I just made that up, but I hope you get the point. Meaning, as the loop cruises the ItemsSelected on the multiselect I'd like to use other than the bound column when setting variables.

I've tried using the column property to then cruise to the proper record in the listbox, e.g. :

[code]
txtCollaborationDesc = "Collaborate " & ListBoxOrganizations.Column(2, varItem) & " with " & listboxActivities.Column(2)
[code]

But this seems to return the column(2) value of the first record loaded into the list box, as if the varItem piece is being ignored. I believe the loop is working properly, as when the inserts are happening correctly with the bound column of the multi-select list is correctly present as an Fkey in the resulting child records.

I just can't get any other column's value for some reason.

MS Access 2010 and this is an accdb.

Referring To Bound Column In Multi Select Listbox

Dec 12, 2012

So I have a list box that lists organizations. I recently changed the list box type to extended multi select. On the same form, I have a button that opens a new form where the user can input contacts for each organization. When the list box was not multi select, the expression [forms]![media]!

[List30] made the default value of one of the fields in my contact form the bound column from the selection in the list box. However, now that the list box is multi select, the contact input form does not seem to be able to get the value from the bound column in the list box. When multi select is turned on, is the bound column stored differently.

To even get the contact input button to work, I had to change the code from:

Private Sub Command40_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command40_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "Contactsqry"
stLinkCriteria = "[Organization ID]=" & Me.List30

[Code] .....

Queries :: Create A Query That Asks For Multi Entries In One Column

Apr 11, 2014

Is it possible to create a query that asks for multi entries in one column .....

For example : If I have parts that I purchase and some of them get rejected I want to inform someone of those parts, these parts could be on order numbers, 1,2,8,10 ....

I cannot just search on rejected because some parts could have been reject say 2 weeks ago but new ones have not arrived yet so the flag "rejected" is still showing ....

Is it possible to set the criteria that when asked for the order number/s you could type in ,1,2,8,10 ....

Multi List Box Filter

Jun 7, 2007

I appreciate your help in advance. I am new to most of this and I need a little assistance. I have searched the web and found some articles etc... I am just not sure how to apply it to mine because I am unfamiliar with some of the wording etc.. I understand a very little of what people are saying but I can't quite put it all together.

I have a form called "reportfilterfrm" in this form I have 3 list box's. On 2 of the list box's multi select is selected to "None" and I have them bound to the criteria field in my query and that works perfect. The 3rd list box multi select is set to "Simple" and I am not sure how to get the query to refrence this.

The query is called "reportfilterqry"

listbox #3 is called [opponent] I would like it to be the criteria for [opponent] in the "reportfilterqry" It is a text field.

Thanks again for your help. I really appreciate it!

Multi-Select List Box

Jun 10, 2005

Hi,
This is my first posting on this forum, and I would greatly appreciate any help with this issue...

I have a form that is used for entering information into tables. I would like to be able to select multiple options from a list on a form and have it saved into a table. Any ideas? Is this even possible :confused:

Here are some paths I followed:
The table has a List Box field, type Text, that gets values for the list items from another table. On the form, I have changed the Multi-Select property of the List Box to "Extended" so that the user can select multiple items from the list. But when I select items from the List Box, the table is not getting updated with the selected items.

Another way I tried doing this: The table has a List Box field that has no values (I'm not looking up values from another table). On the form, I set the Row Source of the List Box equal to the query that gets the list values from a table. I then set the Multi-Select property to "Extended". When I select multiple items from the List Box, the table doesn't get updated.

FYI: The control source for the list box on the form is pointing to the field in the table.


Thanks,
dbnewbie

Multi-Select List Box

Jun 6, 2006

Good morning all...

I have two questions regarding a multi-select list box.

First, is there any way to have the list box include multi-line items...or which will scroll beyond the right border of the box?

Second, I have a multi-select list box which is populated with an ID # column and a Description column. The user can select as many items from the list box as needed and, as the list box item is clicked, the ID # is added to a memo field on the form, with each ID # delineated with a coma. Is it possible to separate the memo field back out so that each item is identified individually (for report purposes)?

Thanx so much for your help with this...you guys/gals are simply the best!

create a datasheet from 2 odbc linked tables which I will be exporting to Excel. The resulting datasheet will have four columns, 'Purchase Order Number' 'Stock Code' 'Delivery Date' 'Unit Price'. The information I require in the datasheet is a unique stock code (one occurrence of each stock code) with the most recent unit price based on the last delivery date for each product. The linked tables contain many Purchase Orders for the same stock codes over a time period of a number of years where the unit price has varied.

Multi List Select Problem

Sep 29, 2005

I have a dialog box where the users can filter a report by various combo boxes that works well. I'm trying to add a multiselect lis box option for one of the combo boxes and have added code which I've also used before. Together the code is looping through and opening the report without a problem, except it's not filtering by the options selected in the list box. Here's what I've got:

If Left(Me![cboSupplier].Column(0), 1) = "*" Or Right(Me![cboSupplier].Column(0), 1) = "*" Then
where = where & " AND [qssupp] Like " + Me![QSSupp].Column(0)
Else
where = where & " AND [qssupp]=" + Me![cboSupplier].Column(0)
End If

If Left(Me![cboPartNo].Column(0), 1) = "*" Or Right(Me![cboPartNo].Column(0), 1) = "*" Then
where = where & " AND [partID] Like " + Me![PartID].Column(0)
Else
where = where & " AND [PartID]=" + Me![cboPartNo].Column(0)
End If

For Each varItem In cboStatus.ItemsSelected
If strCondition = "" Then
strCondition = "[odstatusid] = " & cboStatus.Column(0, varItem)
Else
strCondition = strCondition & " OR [odstatusid] = " & cboStatus.Column(0, varItem)
End If
Next varItem

Set QD = db.CreateQueryDef("Dynamic_Query", _
"Select * from qryWeeklyOrderStatusRpt " & (" where " + Mid(where, 6) & ";"))
If (DCount("*", "Dynamic_Query") = 0) Then
MsgBox "There are no records to print"
Exit Sub
End If

Can anybody see where I'm going wrong?

Multi Select List Box Formatting

Jan 30, 2006

I am using a Multi Select List Box to display a list of names from a table, in order to select e-mail recipients. The names are in two fields: [Main]![First Name] and [Main]![Surname].

I have done this by using the following code for the rowsource:

SELECT DISTINCTROW Main![e-mail], Main![First Name], Main!Surname FROM Main;

This gives a rather undesired effect, in that shorter first names have a large gap before the surname. In addition, there is a dull separating line between the two columns, thus:

Jane | Smith
Bartholomew | Simpson

My questions:

Is it possible to arrange the names so they appear in one column, with a space between them? (i.e. they would appear as written)
If not, can I get rid of the separating line?

Many thanks in advance if you can help!
