Option Box For Query?
Jul 16, 2005
Hello...
Here is what i have, a database with names, addresses and all sorts of information.
I have made an answer query that the report form is based off of with all the fields needed. The fields will not change from here on out.
I also have a form, which I have successfully bring up the report.
(big step for me, newbie here )
So, now, new queries will have to be made from the form, which is where I get lost.
Sometimes it will need to be filter based on zip code, mostly thats what it will be, but I have to have the option of doing it other ways.
whats the best way to go about this?
pleaes be specific as im new to this kind of thing.
Martin

I am using an Access database for a foreign language dictionary project.
One of the forms I use is populated by a query (qryLemmaTable) to retrieve information from tblLEMMA.
This form works precisely as I intend it to work, but there is a glitch on it that is driving me mad.
The form in question has an option group with 11 radio buttons that correspond to the parts of speech associated with each word in tblLEMMA.
When I click on the button optAdjective I apply a filter and the only records that are displayed are adjectives. (The same applies for Nouns, Verbs, Prepositions etc.)
Here is the glitch: even though the radio buttons apply the filter correctly, no “black spot” appears in the button. Other signals on the screen let me know what word type is selected, so I can accomplish what I want, but I want the “black spots” too!
Perhaps this will be a clue: For each radio button I use the following code in the GotFocus event.
Me.FilterOn = False
Me.Filter = "wordtype = 'A'" ‘(or N, etc)
Me.FilterOn = True
And this for the Lost Focus event
Me.FilterOn = False
Thanks for the help.

Hi
I've got an Option Group with 3 options; Yes, No and Future.
I also have a range of Check Boxes; 1 for every day of the week.
When one of the check boxes is selected I want the Option Group to change to Yes.
Currently, the Option Group defaults to Future and No will only be available by manually selecting it. This doesn't need to be changed.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Cheers

Hi,
I am building a database with about 50 nature reserves and all the animals that you can find in these different reserves. I made three major tables, one with the nature reserves, one with the animals, and a third where I created the links between the animals and the reserves. I also managed to build a query which shows me which animals you can find at a certain reserve.
When I make a parameter-query, I have the possibility to type in the name of the reserve, and as a result I get all the animals you can find in that reserve. So far so good.
But what I would like to get for the end-user of this database is the following:
Somehow I would like the end-user to get drop-downlist with the names of the reserves. When he chooses one from the list, the parameterquery should be executed and the result presented in a report.
Is it possible to build a parameter-query in which you do not have to enter the parameter, but you can choose the parameter from a list? Or is there another way to tackle this?
Thanks for your help.

I have several comboboxes on forms that are based on a query which checks the selection of an option group from other form (all are open in same tab container). However, the query stills prompt me for parameter, which tells me it's not pulling the value though there is a selection already made in the option group, and I'm sure the path is correct.
Does anyone know how to make sure that the query "remembers" the value? Would it be better done using a public variable? (I don't know if SQL is capable of accessing a public variable, though)
SQL:
SELECT tblCounty.CountyID, tblCounty.County
FROM tblCounty
WHERE (((IIf([Forms]![frmMainForm].[Form]![frmOption]![optOptions]=4,[tblCounty].[OfficeID]>0,[tblCounty].[OfficeID]=[Forms]![frmMainForm].[Form]![frmOption]![optOptions] Or [tblCounty].[OfficeID]=4))=True))
ORDER BY tblCounty.County;
(The logic is that if you select a office location, the combobox will then filter to only counties that office covers plus two generic placeholders in "4", or allow you to select all available counties if you choose so).

I am developing an Event Management DB for business training courses. I have an attendees table with a link to CompanyNames. I wish to be able to produce an attendees report based on the CompanyName ie all attendees from the selected company. I have done this by using a dropdown of companynames on a Criteria selection form. This works well.
What I would also like to do is print the same list without the companyName criteria. I am aware I could make another query but was hoping that maybe there is a way of setting up the criteria in the companyName field so that it could accept either a company name or ALL company names.
Hope someone can help.
Thanks
Peter

I had to modify how I was storing data on one of my tables. I changed checkboxes to an option group with the values ranging from 1 to 4.I need to count each of these entries for a report which will run them into another formula.I am trying to use the below - obv I'm doing something wrong.
Code:
Police: Sum(IIf([OType],1,0))
And this is the original SQL for my queries if needed:
qry_BLT_RCCounts1
Code:
SELECT Year([tblBlotter].[EntryDate]) AS [Year], Month([tblBlotter].[EntryDate]) AS [Month], Sum(IIf([OType],1,0)) AS Police, Sum(IIf([OType],3,0)) AS Ramp, Sum(IIf([OType],2,0)) AS Terminal, Sum(IIf([OType],4,0)) AS AOA, ([Terminal]+[Ramp]+[AOA]) AS TRATotal, ([Police]+[Terminal]+[Ramp]+[AOA]) AS TotalChecks, Year(DateAdd("m",-1,[tblBlotter].[EntryDate])) AS PrevYear, Month(DateAdd("m",-1,[tblBlotter].[EntryDate])) AS PrevMonth
FROM tblBlotter
[code]....

I stumbled upon the Option Group function just yesterday and, happy as a clam, I created a group with 2 options in radio button style. I assigned the values to a field called Registration_Type as the 2 options are "Confirmed Registrants" and "Prospective Attendees".
[Great. That part works well. When I look at the table, a 1 or a 2 is in that field so it's great to know how to control accidental ticking of radio buttons (previous 450 records or so didn't have this option group functionality so one might easily tick one of the buttons. So one part of controlling option group I know I can handle via the table itself for now.]
The challenge is how to ensure the user always ticks one or the other ... I went back to the main table and tested the 'required entry' option for the Registration_Type field but forcing an action like this is not ideal in my mind. The usual error message vagueness for the average user is no good and I don't want to limit the user so much.
Is there a way to simply have a popup come up warning that neither radio button was ticked? Perhaps something linked to the form - i.e., maybe "after update"?? I only learned about attaching code to before and after update on controls a couple of days ago, so not sure if this would be best approach.
Just something to let the user know that nothing has been ticked in the option group as that controls in which of 2 reports the data will show up in so any record not ticked might mean a registrant being left out, which would be rather disastrous <g>.

Hi there
Is there any way to control the "show" criteria in a query from option groups... i.e... a check box for someone to say if they want to view items in the query or not? (But not to affect the actualy query data in any way).
Cheers!

Hello,
I am not sure what cateogory to choose for this question but I would greatly appreciate your help.
I have 5 buttons in my option group:
1. very often
2. often
3. occasionally
4. rarely
5. never
I have to produce a report using description of each button in my report, not numeric value. I heard something about global variable but I am not sure how to do it.
Many thanks,
Debbie

I have a query that i need to run from a form. From form I need to pass criteria
1 for canada
2 for us
1 and 2 for us and Canada
The criteria needs to go into field Pricing Type. If user selects 1 then only Pricing Type 1 will display. If user selects 2 than only Pricing Type 2 should display. I user selects both , Pricing Type 1 and 2 should be listed.
Can this be achieved with option group?

We have a query that calculates the cost total of three different types of costs between three different parameters. I now need to run a query that prompts the user for the days currency conversion rate to create a new report. I don't want to permanently convert the original fields, it is purely a monthly report where when the report is run is shows both British £ and USD.

I used an option group to classify a record in my database. It works great for this purpose, but I am at the point now of creating a query, and I would like to query based on these classifications (or options). Is this possible to do?
Also, for the option buttons, the value is numeric. When I create the Query (or a report off of that query) I would like the actual text values to display, not the data value Access is using.

I have a query that has 2 fields of currency labour rates (current rate and baseline rate), but sometimes there are some blanks in either of the fields and is causing my text field which has a Sum formula (Rates x Hours) to #ERROR and throws out my other calcs. The only way to find out which blank line items are throwing my query numbers out is to manually type in "Is Null" in the criteria.
However, I would like to keep this process fully automated so I tried to create 2 lots of option buttons for my form, one for each of the 2 fields of currency labour rates and after I click on either option button and then run my query it will show all the lines that have blanks. I was able to link 2 text boxes to the option buttons (Select Case - Case 1 - Me.txtBox1.Value = "Is Null") and then link the text boxes to the criteria field using [Forms]![frm_labour]![txtBox1]. However, none of this seems to be driving my criteria in my query.

I have a table called "Workorders" that I have created a split form for and have customised it so that it had combo boxes etc to enable the user to change the record data.I then needed to add some existing queries to the form so that I could calculate some totals from records in a few other tables. This all works fine EXCEPT that I can no longer change any of the fields in the records.
I am sure that it is something to do with the fact that the 3 queries I added to the form use the "Grouped by" option and based upon my Googling, this is probably the issue.Here is one of the queries:
SELECT DISTINCTROW [Workorder Labor].WorkorderID, Sum([BillableHours]*[BillingRate]) AS [Labor Total]
FROM [Workorder Labor]
GROUP BY [Workorder Labor].WorkorderID;
I need to have the totals and I also need to have the ability to change the data..

Lets say that I have a large list of locations in a listbox. What I want to do is to be able to have an option button that I can press in that will sort these locations. Like 3 or 4 different buttons, lets say like retail, finance, ect. Anyone know what kind of code I might have to use to make these sort on clicking the option button?

I made on option box on a form called Status. The 2 radio buttons are marked Open = 1 and Closed = 2. Is it possible to open a query based on what the user selects. In the query I want open to stand for Is Null and closed would be Is Not Null. I know this sounds unusual but it works in the query they way I want it to. Is this possible? Thanks...

I got an MS Access 2003 db which I think has an general option disbabled or so dnno, here's the case:
When I create a query, and choose to close the query (just be clicking the "X" button at the top), Access doesn't ask me to save the query or not.. it directly displays the box to fill in the name of the query
When I execute an action query, Access just executes it when I click "!" button, without asking me if I want to "deleting, updating, adding xx records"
I've been searching ages to find an option to enable but I can't seem to find anything
Can anybody help me?

Hi,
I have an existing desktop Access database for a Membership system which is working fine (+- 1000 members). We have an existing website that is also working fine and developed using Frontpage 2003 - due for conversion to Expression Web.
Challenge:
We want to offer a facility for members to update their details online via the website. That's the easy part - my query is how do I manage to synchronise both the desktop and the website DB? Replication seems to have disappeared with Access 2003.
New members would be added locally whereas updates would be handled either locally or remotely.
Any ideas very welcome.
Regards
Tony Randell

Say I have two bubbles (options,buttons, whatever you know them as) I want the system to be set up so that only one of the two can be "true" at a time. Say they are titled Option1, and Option2. What code would I put on them so only one can be "true" at a time. If Option1 was true, and then someone clicked on option2, I want it to cause option 1 to go false.
Any help would be greatly appriciated. THANK!
