On my main screen I have a button that I press and it pulls up a
pop up box...in the box you type in one item and hit ok then
the query goes and gets the results.
My quesion:
how do it make it so when I click the button the pop up box
has lets say four areas where I can enter different items and
then it goes and gets all four...or three or whatever I need ?
thanks...
Is there a code for event procedure OnEnter() that allows me to expand my list box so that i can see a list that's larger than the size of it. I was hoping to multiple select from the list and do it at a glance because my list is very long.

Is there a way to make a popup list open on click of a button (cmdAssign) and the user chooses/selects something from the list, then the popup closes and the textbox (txtAssignmentNo) is filled with the choice?

i never needed help this much.
i worked on an access application for 1/2 year. Everything went fine. But now we wanted to start working with it, some older acces versions are acting weird.
I have a form that contains a subform datasheet, and the datasheet has a datasheetsubform aswell.
This works fine in 2003. De datasheet is displayed, and when you click on the plus, the other datasheet opens in the maindatasheet.
But in 2000, you dont see the plusjes.
It is a major issue that i fix that! can some help me to solve this?

I want to make a table (1 row, 3 columns) on Form like we create the table in Microsoft Word. When I type the data in the first row more than one line. The other rows will then automatically expand. All the data will be saved in the same table.
I try to combine 3 textboxs but do not know how to solve the problem.
Thank you very much.
I'm looking for a keyboard shortcut to expand the columns in "design view" of a query.
What I mean by this is rather than selecting all of the columns and double clicking to see the entire text, I'd like to be able to a shortcut.
The entire process as I see it involves 3 steps so I will need thesolution to the 3rd step.
(1) [ctrl+spacebar] to select initial column
(2) [shift+arrows] to select all of the columns I need
(3) [keyboard shortcut] will expand all of the columns "field" names to the size of the column heading
Alternatively, if you know of a shortcut that will expand the columns without having to select them first I'll take it!!
I'm working on a sub-form set to continuous and would like to amend a memo filed so that it autoexpands when entered. Have tried amending the height of the field through the on enter an on exit functions but this alters the size of the form.
Any clues would be much appreciated.

Any ideas why combo boxes that all have their "auto expand" option set to YES are not auto expanding as I type-in text? They were working last week and I have no idea why they're not working now. Strangely, if I type in any of the entries present in the combobox list (text such as "St. Louis City") exactly as it appears in the combobox list, and then press enter, I get an error message telling me the value is invalid. Then, if I use the drop-down list to find and select "St. Louis City", it allows me to enter this value.

I have a report with a column of data. It contains a variable amount of data according to the demand of the user (criteria entered in a parameter query). The problem I have is that the data is short string of 3 letters but there are generaly lots of entries so the report runs over several pages. I would like to be able to creat columns side by side. A bit like with the "Can grow" option" but that a new column appears...
I am not sure I am clear...
Many thanx for your help

I have a report that needs to show about 20 different fields from 24 records. I have it set up in landscape view, with one record per line (running horizontally). It allows me to show about 15 of the fields, spanning two pages (wide). I don't know how to add a third page to show the remaining fields.There are no Groupings.
Also, is there a way to "wrap" text in the column header?
Is it possible to make a query Pop-up? All of my forms are set so the Database background is hidden and they popup. I haven't been able to figure a way to do this with a query. Any help or suggestions would be great :)

Hi,
I'm trying to implement a new pop up on one of my queries.
When the user runs the query a pop up will appear and he will enter a currency number (19.95) and it will display all currency (<) less than 19.95.
I use this wild card pop up currently and have tried to modify it, but can't seem to get to do what I need.
Code:Like [Enter Min-Amount] & "*"
Thanks for your help,
Leap!

I have a bound combo box that has a query as a row source, The query has 3 fields called from tblMasterItems, The ItemID , ItemDesc and ItemSupplier(related to the PK of tblSupplier).
Column Count = 3
Column Width = 0";1";0"
If I do not put a criteria under ItemSupplier, the combo box behaves just fine. The problem happens when I set the criteria under ItemSupplier, the criteria being the supplier ID, the combo box no longer expands and searches as you type, but the items in the combo box have been filtered and are there.
Summary:
When the row source qry ItemSupplier Field does not have a criteria, cbo works just fine.
When the row source qry ItemSupplier has a criteria, cbo no longer expands and searches as you type, but has the filtered data showing if you hit the expand button (that arrow pointing down in the cbo)
Have a generic dashboard report with multiple charts in it. One in particular is a bar chart, but depending on what the dashboard is produced for, the bar chart may have too many bars in it to make it legible. Therefore I'd like to conditionally determine the number of bars (basically the number of records in the query) and then make the chart go from one page and continue onto another.

I have a popup form called Labor that is working perfectly fine, what i mean is that it is getting populated with data from the query I built using a single table called PrimaryBid_Master. However I have had to add many fields to this table before invoking a query on it, now I'm running close to the 255 field max limitation.
So I have created a new table called Labor_Primary with all the fields that I need and took them out of the PrimaryBid_Master table freeing up about 50 fields.
The query I made combines 2 tables: table1=PrimaryBid_Master table2=Labor_Primary, they are linked by a common field called invoice#.
But now when I’m in the PrimaryBid_Master form and click the command button to go to the popup form Labor non of the values that were populating the popup form from the primaryBid_Master form work, they were working fine the only thing I changed was the popup forms record source to the new query I built.
Here is a print screen of the new query I built using 2 tables, and I also show the old query that works fine using 1 table. http://www.roofmart.net/query1.asp
Maybe you can see some thing I did wrong; do I need some type of filter to fetch the fields? When I open the new query there is no data/values in it.
Thanks--I appreciate any help.
I'm told (via the non-helpful help system packaged with MsAccess) that the way to 'turn off' the helpful confirmation message related to an action query is under tools>Options>Edit/Find tab, and then uncheck the appropriate boxes.
I've done this. In fact, right now I have all three boxes unchecked which relate to confirmation messages (record changes, document changes, and action queries) - and I'm still having that same popup message every time I run the query, or have a report pull the query for me.
this wouldn't be more than just a hassle, except that one of the end users for this system isn't the most computer-savvy person in the whole world. In fact, I desperately need to "steve-proof" this system! I have this nightmare of being woken up at midnight because of this little glitch. any ideas how to disable that popup confirmation message for good??
In my access form I provide the user a list of locations from various countries in a listbox . But the list is too long so I provide him a combobox for selecting a country. Selecting the country should update the listbox showing only the locations in that specific country.
So my SELECT from the listbox must cover the unselected state and show all entries and when a country is selected it must narrow the selection.
I tried to get this happen with the following SELECT statement containing a variable. Choosing a country in the Combobox results in a change of the variable and in a requery. This works after the first country is selected and for each country change, but the initial list is empty.
VBA in the loadform
'Application.TempVars.Add "varcountryselect", "*"
SELECT in the listbox "lstlocationsperproject"
SELECT tbllocations.locationID, tbllocations.country, tbllocations.localstreet, tbllocations.localcity FROM tbllocations WHERE ((tbllocations.country) Like [TempVar]![varcountryselect]);
VBA in the combobox
Application.TempVars("varcountryselect") = [Form]![kombcountryselect].Column(0)
Me.lstlocationsperproject.Requery
The values in [kombcountryselect].Column(0) are texts like "SPAIN", "MEXICO", etc.
Any hints, how I have to use the * for getting the complete list on the initial view ?
I have a DB where you there's 5 tables all linked together by one project ID
tables below
Project , Staff, Asset, allowances, travel, mark up
What I can do is create a new project, then add records to each of the other tables on what different items I require,
i.e. I create a new project - called project one, in the project table I create a record stating, name, time scale, client and location, then I add different records to each of the other tables on what I require all linked to the same project ID. (probably not explained that too well)
Now I want to create a query that lists all the requirements one after the other this will make it easier to create reports and to calculate costing's.
At the moment I have made 5 different queries listing all the data, then have one report containing 5 sub reports to display the data, no this does work.
I have a subform I am using on a form. I would like to modify the code below that I have for a button on the form. I would like to use the master and child field link in the code below to only show candidates related to the main form. The link is candidate id. I have this working with a subform on the form but I would like to have this only display as a pop-up once the user clicks the button on the form. Is this possible? Thanks..
Private Sub Candidates_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Candidates_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "CandidatesCPR_Frm"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit_Candidates_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Candidates_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Candidates_Click
End Sub
How do I set a form to popup and modal? What field in properties do I use the expression.popup?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a form that we use to enter our workorders (jobs) into the database. The bottom of the form runs a query and returns record information if a car has been in our facility before.
I would like to program it so that if the query does in fact find a previous record it pops up a window or message that says so.
Basically I need something like...
If the arrival date (and/or) item number is not null then popup a message that tells you the car has been here before.
Thanks!
I'm working on an invoice system for a company and they reqiure notification when an account is called up on a form that has an outstanding invoice.
So I created a query that locates all unpaid invoices, I made a form using that query, and I want to use it as a subform on my main invoice page.
But I'd like this subform to only popup when the criteria is met, that is the name on the subform matches the name on the current invoice called up.
Right now the subform is blank when the criteria is not met, and fields are filled out when they are...but I'd rather a nice big popup that can really get their attention...any idea if this is possible on Access 2000?
Thanks!
Alright, I did a search for this and came up blank, but I'm sure its been asked a million times, sorry for the inconvenience:D
Is it possible to make a subform a popup form? I have a client table --1--to-many--> service table and want the service form to popup out of the client form. But I also want to the foreign key to autopopulate just like a subform would. Is there any way to do this? Are there any pitfalls to doing it this way?
Thanks in advance,
