I am making a from that has a set of combo boxes that allow the user to search through a table. the results are displayed in a subform / subreport window that is set to a query. the search works by changing the SQL of the query. I have spent weeks on getting this far and i have decided to just show some key infomation in the subreport window.
What i want to do now is to display further infomation from the query row that is selected by the user in a textbox on the form.
i have been looking in the access VBA help,an access programming book and in the forum .And found that it is something to do with the recordset and making the text box bound but i cant find any examples where it is applied in this way.
the problem is (i think) that i would like the text box data to change when the user selects differnt rows so would this change what the textbox is bound to. :confused:
I hope it is possible and if anyone can help it will be greatfully recived
I am trying to send the current record and the current subform record to Reports for printing.Each record on the Form can have multiple records in the subform, however I only want to print the Main Form and the Current subform.Form / subform are linked on EquipID and EquipIDfk and are working correctly.Report / subreport are linked the same way and work correctly.When I try to use the DoCmd.OpenReport... It is printing the data from the main form plus all subform records related to the main record.I have tried the following Sub to filter the subreport without success.
Private Sub cmdPrintRecord_Click() Dim strWhere As String Dim strLook1 As String Dim strLook2 As String strLook1 = Me![EquipID] strLook2 = Me![subfrmInspectionReport].Form![InspectionFindingspk]
[code]...
Using Debug strLook1 and strLook2 both show they have the correct relevant record numbers and the value stored in strWhere is: [EquipID] = 745 And Reports![RptPrintRecord]![subrptInspectionReport].Report![InspectionFindingspk] = 8. This only prints an empty report. It seems that when I try to reference the subreport it goes pear shaped.
I am new to this and i may be going about this the wrong way but what i am doing seems to do the job until now.
I am making a form that has a combo box, a few text boxes and a subform subreport on it.
The idea is that the first thing a user does is to select a name form the combo box. this name is then stored as a sring and used to set the forms record source and then the subform's (called window) source object. the string is slightly modified during the process to do this. That part works fine.
The problem arose when i included text boxes to show infomation from the selected Query thatisant show in the window (subform).
After the user selects a name and the name is used to set up the record source and the source object for the text boxes.it then displays in the text boxes the records extra data. however it only displays the first row extra data.And when other rows in the query table are selected the data in the text box stays set as the first row.
I know that this is because i haven't programed in an event that makes the text box data update when the user selects a new row.
i also realise that i would need to have some way of know what row of the quiery table the user is looking at to be able to update the text boxes.
my questions are
Is there a way to tell what row of a query table in the subform is selected ?
Is there an event similar to on selection of row or something like that that i could use to reload the text boxes?
And it works great, I click a button next to the record I want to select (records displayed on continuous form) and it opens the Lead Details form on that particular record.
However now I am trying to accomplish the same thing, except instead of a continuous form I need to draw from a continuous sub-form. The form "BrokerMgmt" contains a sub-form named "BrokerSearch." The RecordSource for the sub-form is set once the user enters data into a few textboxes on the main form and clicks the search button:
Code: Private Sub brkSearch_Click() Dim argCount As Integer On Error GoTo Err_Handler If IsNull(brkFirstName.Value) And IsNull(brkLastName.Value) And IsNull(brkCompany.Value) Then MsgBox "You Need To Select Some Values", vbCritical, "Lead Tracking"
[Code] ....
The sub-form then displays basic info such as Name, Company, State, and the "BrokerID" which is the primary key of the "Broker" table. This "BrokerID" is displayed in "Textbox 20" so I set a button next to each result to on_click perform the procedure:
Code: DoCmd.OpenForm "BrokerDetails", acNormal, "Point_To_Broker2", , , acDialog, """" "Point_To_Broker2" is set up in the same style as "Point_To": Field: BrokerID Table: Broker Criteria: [Forms]![BrokerSearch]![Text20]
However instead of the BrokerDetails form opening to the appropriate record I get a msg box asking for a parameter. Why is this? Even if I enter the correct BrokerID as the parameter it still gives me an error saying you can't go to the specified record.
As the unbound parent list box record selection is changed, I want the sub form to refresh. Do I put code in the Subform Current Record event?
Master Form Name: frmsr_NewWellEntry Unbound Listbox - when record selected the primary key populates txtNavWellID (unbound) on parent form
subform Container fsubsrNavSHLBHL Link Master Fields =Forms![frmsr_NewWellEntry].[txtNavWellID]
The read-only form in the subform Record Source is something like: select * from vsrNavigatorSHLBHL where Well_ID =90243..Key The Form used as the subform above will be re-used in multiple parent forms. The parent form data is form SQL Server, the subform from Oracle.
- textbox - command button - subform (showing a table with 4 fields, including an "EntryID" field but just one record)
What I'm trying to accomplish is to enter a value in the textbox (this value will be one of the EntryIDs in the EntryID field), click the command button, and the subform should refresh itself, showing the record from the table (the 4 fields) which has the same EntryID.
In my form I have a subform, which displays A, B, C. Then information C is displayed in textbox. User should have a possibility to modify this data in order to modify data in database.
I am able to display information C in text box based on this subform. However it is uneditable, although property of enabled is yes and locked is no.
It seems to me, that it is impossible to edit data because it is taken not directly from database but from sub form, so I make special query which takes data directly from database however I lose an event which is based on selecting proper record from subform (there is only onEnter and onExit events)
I have a form called CostingForm. This form has a subform called CostingSubform. The subform's data source is a table called Costing Table. The main form has a combobox that has all the "Field names" or headers from the Costing Table that populates with the on open event. I also have a non bound textbox on the main form. What I would like to be able to do is input a value in the textbox, select a field name from the combobox and with an "update" button update the corresponding fields on the subform with the value in the textbox. Is this even possible?
I have a form with a textbox which when users enter a unique number(barcode) I want to run a query which pics up the barcode number, checks against the product id and fills the subform with the name of the product and price.
The basic details of the product table is like:
product id (Autonumber) prdoduct name (text) price barcodeId (number)
The subform where i want the result to go is the order details fields product name and price.
I am trying to figure out how to do this but my mind keeps going blank, its been a long while since i used ms access.
My bound master form has bound subform in it and both of them has linked fields. In the master form i've placed a checkbox which if unchacked will lock and disable a textbox in the SUBFORM, and if checked will enable and unlock the textbox and fill it with a calculation result, which will then be passed on to the underlying table.
Now, suppose in the master form (named X), i have A (checkbox) and B (textbox with numeric value) and in the subform (named Y), i have C & D (both textboxes with numeric values). Hence if A is checked, I'd like D to return the result of - "B*C". Or else D will remain locked and disabled.
I have a mainform with a combobox and a button. What i want is when i click on the combobox and then on the button I want that the textbox in the subform automatically fill in.
The mainform name is FrmTakenInvoerenEnToewijzenAanEenMonteur,
I have a subform with a textbox in the footer to count[id]. then on my main form i have another textbox that has a control source of =[subform].[form]![subformfootercontrol].
However when the subform updates the main form text is blank. typically i see a ?#Name or#Error if the control is pointing to the wrong place, but i have never see it stay blank.
I am trying to highligh a subform textbox a yellow color on focus. However it is highlighting every textbox in that field as it is a continuous form therefore they are all named ThisCount.
Is there a way to highlight just the specific textbox that I am in. I have tried.
Code: Dim ctlCurrentControl As Control Dim strControlName As String Set ctlCurrentControl = Screen.ActiveControl strControlName = ctlCurrentControl.Name Set ctlCurrentControl = Screen.ActiveControl
I have a form with a subform which resides in a tabbed control. In that subform, I have a textbox in the footer that sums values in the detail section of the subform.
I have a textbox on my main form that should display the same data that is in my subform footer textbox, but it is giving me the #name? error.
This is the expression in my subform footer textbox (which returns the correct result):
TxtSubtotalHQPCalc - =Sum([ActualHQPCalc])
And the expression in my main form textbox (which returns #name?):
I have verified that my subform name and textbox names are all accurate. This is very frustrating because I am using this exact same method in a different database with no problems!
I have a Mainform [FrmReconcileMain] and it contains a Subform [FrmReconcilesub]
What I'm trying to is, on the Main form type in a statement date in textbox [TxtStatementDate].
I have a checkbox on my subform [ReconciledYN], along with a textbox [TxtReconcileDateSub]. when I click the checkbox, it simply pulls the date from the mainform and populates the date in the subform.
I've even tried experimenting on a simple form (with no subform) to see whats going on, but still I can't get it to work, even on a simple event such as this...
If [yourcheckboxname] = -1 Then [controlnametoupdate] = date() Else [controlnametoupdate] = ""
Go to frmInvoice, and you'll see a Net Total box (txtNetTotal) . It's control source is linked to a textbox in the subform fsubInvoiceDetails2 called txtStocktotal. It basically just pulls up all the costs associated with that InvoiceID.
The reference mechanism is as follows: =[fsubInvoiceDetails2].[Form]![txtStockTotal].Now...sometimes this works and sometimes it doesn't! Sometimes i've had to use: =forms!fsubInvoiceDetails2!txtStockTotal.
It seems to be very temperamental at times and i'm not fully confident if this can be explained.By way of note, I use express builder normally to input these statements: I go to Forms > ALL FORMS > fsubInvoiceDetails2 > txtstocktotal.
I currently have an Excel Spreadsheet w/ 20 columns and 800+ rows. The columns are such things as Product, Product Code, Description, etc. It has clearly grown to big for an Excel file so I created an Access table from the spreadsheet called All.
Goal - have employees open a form and select a product from a dropdown box and then place check marks next to the info they would like to see for the product they chose.
I created a seperate table called Product, and a query for table All, and a report for the query. I created a form w/ a combo box that lists table Product and has a submit button. I added a criteria in the query under the column product that looks at this combobox. When you run the form, select a product, and click submit it opens a report that shows the results of the query for that product.
The part I cannot get is the check boxes that determine what columns are show in the report. I added a checkbox to my form and then went to my query and unchecked show and added a criteria to look at the checkbox in my form. All that did was erase the column from the query permanently.
I'm sure I'm going about this is the wrong way, but this is my first hack at Access and I'm trying to learn as I go.
I'm a complete newbie to MS Access, and I'm working on my 2nd database.
Just a small and probably retarded issue: I have a table which includes a field, which contains four numbers. In a query I want my users to be able to enter a number, like 6, and the three numbers after that will have to be wildcards.
Example: The field has these entries: 8243 8184 6423
When the user enters "8", it should show the first two records. When the user enters "6", it should show the third record.
i have created a table and am trying to run a qry that counts specific data, i have been searching but cannot find the answer. I have a standard qry that has the criteria of "staff name" and dates between ## And ##. Now when that information is returned, how do i get a count figure for the results. So for example if there were 15 entries for september it would say september = 15 (ish). I have been told to assign a recordset but no other information was forth coming. Can anybody help with code or qrys for creating a recordset.
Please remember the noob status when it comes to access - lol
Recently our system crashed and so I fixed compacted and repaired, and all seemed to be good to go. However, next day a bunch of random fields that our reps were once able to add information to are no longer able to add info to. They seemed to be locked out, however, I go into the various forms that were set up and enable is set to Yes, and Locked = No.
Hope nobody minds but I don't really know Access and I have a table that needs sorting pretty desperately.I have a table with 5 columns that I need to filter out so just the remaing records are left over.http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/7328/untitled1wb8.th.jpg (http://img208.imageshack.us/my.php?image=untitled1wb8.jpg)The column 'fax' is the column with the records in it and the following columns need the record removing if the box is ticked.TimFPS, OurFPS, OnFPS, NeedsToBeFPS, however the column 'NumberWeHave' I'm not too sure about so I'll ignore it for now (I may need to take them out later)Sorry to be a complete noob and if anyone can help it will be muchos appreciated.
