Navigate To A Record Based On Series Of Combo Boxes And Button
May 10, 2012
I'm trying to navigate to a record based on a series of combo boxes and a button. The user goes through the combo boxes, first picking a (let's say) Store, then Aisle, then Item. The Item combo box stores the Item's unique ID as its bound column.My code is as follows:
Code:
Private Sub NavigateButton_Click()
Me.Recordset.Clone.FindFirst "[ItemID] = " & Me![ItemComboBox]
Me.Bookmark = Me.Recordset.Clone.Bookmark '(<-- Don't actually have this in yet, but I will need it)
End Sub
The ItemID field in the ItemTable table is an Autonumber Long Integer. Why am I getting the error "Engine does not recognize 'ItemID' as a valid field name or expression"?There are no references within the form to the ItemID directly (no text boxes, hidden fields etc).
I have a button to navigate to the next record. I also have a button to add a new record. I want the next record button to be able to navigate to the next record but I don't want it to be able to create a new record if I click the button while being on the last record. I want it to stop at the last record, making my add a new record button the only way to create a new record. How to do that?
Lets say that I have four combo Boxes on my form ’A’ I need to create another form ’B’ that will give the admin the permission to add or remove from these combo Boxes their values, do I need to create another form and simply add 4 combo Boxes and connect them to their source? What about the add and remove button is it done like VB? Can anyone help me with that?
I am facing a problem. i am very amateur at access. I want to design a form on which there is one combo box and one command button. If i made a selection from the combo box and clik on command button it should show all the details related to that particular selection (say Shop Order) on a report. I dont know how to link this things.
report may be like.. Shop Order Description Length Width Hight.. Ax12 xxxxxx xxx xxx xxx Ax 12 for a particular shop order selection there may be no. of parts that should show on. like an assembly thing. Suppose Shop order for a bag is A23 and its different parts are belt and chain... now SHOP Order description ...... A23 belt A23 Chain...
i hope i described my problem.. please do help if you can.. Thank you Hemendra
I need to select information from different combo boxes. Using a command button, i would then like the information transferred onto a list box.
I have so far managed to link all my combo boxes so the result comes out on a list box. if one combo box is left blank, i get no information in the list box. is there a simple way of doing this.
I have a rather simple query that will produce filtered results based on the user's selection in 1 to 4 separate combo boxes on a form. But I can't get it to do what I want it to do. Here are my vitals:
Form = frmQryAdHoc City combo box = cboCity (from tblWARNData) County combo box = cboCounty (from tblCounties) MWA combo box = cboWMA (from tblLookUpData)
The query works fine if I make selections in all 3 combo boxes. However, if I make a selection in only cboCity, the query returns no results because it doesn't find a matching record where the city = cboCity and the County and MWA fields are blank.
Here's how I want it to work:
If cboCity = Detroit and cboCounty = Wayne, then Results = 40 records (where city = Detroit AND county = Wayne)
But if cboCounty = Wayne and cboCity & cboMWA are blank, then Results = 120 records (where county = Wayne; cities & MWAs = various)
IOW, I want the query to filter only on the cbo's where a selection has been made by the user and ignore any empty cbo's. What statement do I need to enter in each cbo-related criteria field so the query filters only on the combo boxes where a selection has been made by the user?
Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
:confused: I have a combo box on a form that is used for data entry that allows the user to pick the date. This is based on a table that includes date, week ending date and month, all very specific for our business. I used a function that says Me.txtBox=ComboBox.Column1 for example. So my combo box would include all the information, and all but the actual date is not visible. I want this to feed into another table that will be used for reporting, and that table has the same fields of date, week ending date and month. I keep getting an error saying that the value selected from the combo box doesn't fit the criteria, and I believe what is going on is that it is taking all the fields instead of just the date. Any suggestions how I can still have the text boxes update if I only have the date in the combo box?:confused:
I have a main form which has 4 combo boxes all based on tblPeople. Combo0 is skill Combo1 is discipline Combo2 is crart Comb03 is active
The sub form is a datatable list of the tblpeople.
How do I apply the filter to the datatable. I am assuming I need to build a sql statement somewhere like SELECT from tlpeople WHERE me!combo0 = [tblpeople].[skill] and me!Combo1=[tblpeople].[discipline] etc
Is there a sample database? or can somebody tell me how to go about this.
My database is using data that is entered by the employees to generate Quotations. There is one important piece of information that will not be entered by the employee. The quotes involve metals which are priced based on market price and weight. I am planning on integrating a data feed with this information, but for now I want to enter it manually in a table. The price depends on two combo boxes one for "Precious or Base Metals", and one for "Metal Name". I want those two values to call the price from a table, and automatically fill in the "Market Price" field in the form.Also once that is in I would like to do my calculations. I am planning on using queries to do these. Is that the correct method?
I am trying to create a training matrix in which i need a form that if I put or assign maximum of 20 attendees then 20 comboxes will appear in form.for example, i enter in textbox1 6 or 15 depends but max is 20 then if hit enter comboxes will appear but quantity will based on value that i enter in textbox1.
I've been working on a database for work for the last few weeks and this forum has been a Godsend many times over, but now I have a problem that I can't find any reference to.
Using Access 2003, I have a form that uses 3 cascading combo boxes in the header to find a unique record, and a command button that brings up the rest of the record into unbound fields in the body of the form.
It works fine for finding records, but whenever I enter/change data on it, the record doesn't save. The navigation buttons at the bottom don't work - the Next/Previous record buttons are disabled, and the First/Last Record buttons do nothing.
Navigation buttons are enabled/activated in the properties.
I tried getting around this by creating a Save Record command button - first using the wizard, then using VBA code DoCmd.RunCommand acSaveRecord as advised by [missinglinq;696351], but this still doesn't save the changes.
I have a form that our operators use to do their hourly quality audits on. This is getting to be a huge burden on them because right now, they enter the date, the week ending date, the month every time they have to do an entry, and for me it is a nightmare because they can still enter the wrong information. So, what I was wondering is if there is a way that I can have them select the date from a combo box (easy enough), but from that, have the week ending date and the month fields automatically update as well. Any advice? I would really appreciate it! Thanks so much!!!!
I have a form called frmPO based on a table called tblPO One of the fields in tblPO is linked to the field idAddress in the table tblAddresses
The following fields exist in both tblAddresses and tblPO Company Address1 Address2 City ZP State
The form contains controls for these fields on tblPO. I would like to give the user the choice to either enter a shipping address manually, or selecting a preregistered address from tblAdresses. For this I would like a combo box showing the values of idAddress. I f a user selects a preregistered shipping address, I would like the form to fill the rest of the fields based on the value of this control.
My understanding is that I should set a BeforeUpdate event to set the values of the different controls, unfortunately my command of VBA amounts to 0.
I have two combo boxes in the form header and command buttons in the form detail. The combos allow the user to select either a customer or a prospect, then the command buttons open forms that only show records pertaining to the customer or prospect selected. Combos are "4Custcbo" and "4Proscbo".
1.How do I change which command buttons are available depending on whether the user has selected a customer or a prospect? Do I use two different subforms or is there a better way?
2.How do I hide the other combo box once the user has selected either a customer or a prospect?
I want to add to every row a combobox with a list of towns depending on the value in the field Country ID.how do I filter the comboboxes individually based on a value in another field on the same row?
I have a form and a subform with a master/child relationship set based on the primary key of each underlying table. All good there.Now, I want to use VBA to create a filter based on a set of inputs via combo boxes. But the filter must filter both the Parent and Child records.Example. "Show me only records where both only the Parent.Field1 = "string" and Child.Field = "string".I can do this in a QRY as follows:
SELECT Projects.[Project Number], Lessons.[Actions Resolved] FROM Projects INNER JOIN Lessons ON Projects.ProjectsRecordID = Lessons.ProjectsRecordID WHERE (((Projects.[Project Number])="AU-2102421") AND ((Lessons.[Actions Resolved])=True));
But, if I make this as a record source for the Parent Form, then the records in the Parent Form are repeated for each individual record in the Child form.
I want to create a query based on 3 combo boxes but have it so that if the field in the second or third combo box is not populated the query still runs.
Right now i have the Criteria set for the three columns that i wish to sort by as seen below.
This gives me the correct query result but im forced to make a selection from each combo box. Is there a way to progamme it so that if I only make a selection from the first combobox and leave the others blank i can still get results in a query?
I am trying to put together a form where employees will be entering maintenance information into my database. One of the requirements for this data is that when they perform repair work on an asset, they have to list a problem, cause and remedy. These are codes that are specific to each asset.
The closest thing I can think of to what I am trying to acheive is the selectors on car search websites. You select a MAKE, and then the MODEL list is narrowed down based on that, then you pick the TRIM, which is narrowed down based on the model selection. I have an Excel spreadsheet of the Assets(Failure Class), Problems, Causes, and Remedies...I'm just not sure how to put this into Access to get the desired output. I have attached a sample of the Excel spreadsheet for illustration.
I believe I'm going to have to put each of the columns in a seperate table and use relationships..but I'm not sure about that.
im trying to enable/disable checkboxes based on a combobox selection for instance,
i make the selection in a combo box called terms and conditions. i want it then to only enable the business,domestic and summary check boxes for that type, with the onther check boxes staying disabled. is there a way this can be done through code like the statement "only enable if this letter type selection has been selected"
i have 2 combo boxes on a form and a button to add a new record in a table. i am trying to add code so that if either of the boxes is 'null' that an error message displays and the code ends so that a partial record isnt entered into the table. i think the solution is adding a line somewhere to my code but im not sure where. Here is the code i have for just one of the boxes to get it working correctly:
Private Sub Command31_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Command31_Click If IsNull(Me.Combo14) Then MsgBox ("invalid selection made") End If
This code gives me the error message, ive tried putting in end sub/exit sub before and after the 'end if' but each time the record is added to the table. Can someone tell me how to end the procedure after the if statement if its condition is true?
I have a form with cascading combo boxes pulling from a table. They work perfectly, no worries. My problem now is if I do not enter information in every combo box (i.e. only two out of four combo boxes), how can I still run the query and get the appropriate information?
For example (these are my combo box titles in order):
Product Type Customer Contract #
I don't want to necessarily look by Contract # all the time, but sometimes just by the general Product and Type to get a larger view. How do I set up expressions/criteria in my query to accurately produce that information? Right now it just produces a blank query table if I don't fill out all the boxes.
I've tried a couple of expressions with "isnull" criteria, but I must be doing it incorrectly.
More Info" button based on Combo Box selection. I need to create a command button that can be used to see all of the data in the table for whatever name is selected in a combo box. For example, if John Smith is selected from the combo box, the user could click a "More Info" button, which will open a separate form showing all the data in the table for John Smith.
I have a form that currently uses a "catch all" table for listing available equipment to choose from for an equipment field. I call it tblEquipment. What I want to do is to make it so when I type a name in (1 of 35) in one field of the current record, the record source for the equipment field immediately looks at a different table that has equipment available only for that name. To do this I plan on making 35 different tables with limited data originally found in tblEquipment. I would call these tblEquipment1, tblEquipment2, etc. I do not use a sub form, nor do I want to.
So my questions are:
1) can this be done 2)If it can be done, how can I do it?
