Run-time 2501 Opening A Form
Jun 12, 2006
hi guys, here is the situation.
I have 3 forms:
1- editpopsubform where the info comes from a select statement.
2- editPoplist , which has the form 1 as a subform
3- editpop, a form which allows the user to edit a record selected in the poplist form.
The idea is to open the editpoplist form, where a list of records appears. Once a record is double clicking in the code number, the editpop form is open showing all the details for that particular record.
the code number in the editpop from is assigned as per the following:
=[forms]![editpoplist]![editpopsubform]!ifsnumber
Problem: when i double click in the code number the following error appears...
"run-time error 2501 . the open form action was cancelled"
any clue?
thx max.

Hi all! I am looking for some help in how to get a form to open just once on the first launch of the database. This information is the company information of the one using the software. I have a button that one can click if they want to edit or add this information later. Thanks for your help in advance.

I have a form, which is comprised of a sub form, and some of the text box controls sided with a button, and the event had been written to the button.
Now, to give a note on how had the sub form had been created is firstly taking a clone of the "Payments" table and using it as a datasheet, and then create a sub form in the form, it works fine

In order to prevent a duplicate values in the field TR_Tripcode (text) I put the following code in the Before Update Event of TR_Tripcode.
************************************************** ********
Dim SID As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
Dim rsc As DAO.Recordset
Set rsc = Me.RecordsetClone
SID = Me.TR_Tripcode.Value
stLinkCriteria = "[TR_Tripcode]=" & "'" & SID & "'"
If DCount("strTripcode", "tblTripreports", stLinkCriteria) > 0 Then
'Undo duplicate entry
Me.Undo
'Message box warning of duplication
MsgBox "Warning Tripcode " _
& SID & " has already been entered." _
& vbCr & vbCr & "You will now been taken to the record.", vbInformation _
, "Duplicate Information"
'Go to record of original Tripcode number
rsc.FindFirst stLinkCriteria
Me.Bookmark = rsc.Bookmark
End If
Set rsc = Nothing
************************************************** ********
I found this code on a site and I adjusted it for my situation.
However I keep getting Error 2501 'You canceled the previous operation'.
Even after reading all posts about this subject I still haven't figured out the problem.
All suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Access 2007. I can run the report for last month and with the VBA code outputting it directly to PDF and it works. When I run it for this month, I get an error 2501. This report has been running for months with no issues. When I run it for this month and preview the output, I can export it to PDF with no problems. Why can't I get it to work in VBA for this month?

I have a Form opening from Access Options. I would like to close this Form using the Timer. The following is the code I have used but it is not working.
Private Sub Cover_Page_Form_Load()
OpenTimer = Timer
End Sub
Private Sub Cover_Page_Form_Timer()
If (Timer - OpenTime) = 5 Then DoCmd.Close acForm, "Cover_Page_Form", acSaveYes
End Sub
Next question. If I can get this to work can I then use a DoCmd to open new Form within the code above or do I need a new process.

Hi,
Not sure if this is not a stupid question, but when I try to open two forms with controls that have the same underlying control source, I encounter a message that say "the table is locked and cannot be malnipulated pregrammatically", or "the table you tried to open is being used, please wait a while before trying again." Is there anyway around it at all?

I have the following code, which works the way I want it to when I click the button the first time. However, if I close out the excel and click the button again, it errors at the line "ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Ref").UnProtect", with the message "Run-time error '91', Object variable or With block variable not set". I can not figure this out, why in the world does it work the first time, but not the second???
Private Sub cmdReport_Click()
Dim path As String
Dim XL As Object
Dim oBook As Excel.Workbook
Dim pic As Excel.Shape
Set XL = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
[code]...

I work on a pre-created Access database, and the other day I was working on it, and was trying to export something to Excel to sort it and do some Pivot analysis.
Anyway, I must have pressed something, because now every time I open the database, rather than saying "record 1 of 20463" and showing the data from record 1, it shows "record 1 of 1" and all the data fields are blank. If I go to "Records" and "Show All Records" they'll all come up, but I don't want to have to do that every time, and as I import and export all the time, I'm worried that the next time I try it it'll mess up the years of data I have.

I have a database that stores information for lab testing. Each time a tech does a "step" in the test process he logs it in the table, using an input form. There are different categories, for example preparation, testing, analysis, etc, and each of those steps take time. I have the form autopopulate the date and time with NOW() evertime the form is updated. What i want to do is calculate the time it takes to do each in days. I can easily get how many days it was from now since they logged the test, =NOW()-TestDateTime. What I want to do is get the number of days it took to do each step, ie the number of days between each event. Is there a way to do this?

I have been tasked with creating a tool to analyse mobile phone bill data and present the analysis, and our recommendation, to a customers. Being new to Access (other than basic tuition) this has been a slow uphill task, which is finally nearing completion, however there is a problem which I have not yet been able to overcome.
The requirement is for the DB to open first on a splash screen (lets call it Form A) with fancy picture where our customer is selected from a combo box, the customer is then telephoned, a linked computer screen is established and our staff then click "Go" to proceed to a second form (Form B) showing an account overview and more details.
The problem I have is when "Go" is clicked, the second form loads via on click event, and even populates the correct customer in its combo box. Unfortunately that is as far as it gets - the combo does not look up the information. The customer needs to be selected again for the subforms and subreports to load with the customer overview. To clarify, form B just sits there blank until the customer is re-selcted from the combo box in form B.

I am using Access 2010 - Version 14.0.61.29.5000 (32-bit)
I am building a custom Export Wizard to export data to Excel using the Report Wizard for the basic ideas.
All I am trying to do is have a [Back] button on a form to open another form and close the current form.
Private Sub cmdBack_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "frm_ExportWizardPage2", , , , , , Nz(Me.OpenArgs)
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frm_ExportWizardPage3"
End Sub
The new form is opening but then the current form is not closing. All forms are the same size, shape and positioned centrally although this should not make any difference.
Could this be anything to do with which form has the focus when I open the new form?

Hello buddies :D, do you have any idea how to make this work?
To select data that falls within this criteria of date range between cboDate and cboDate2 (fields on my form). The date in [tblJobDetails]![timeIn] come in this format "08/17/06 10:24 AM", but the cboDate/cboDate2 (takes in date only e.g 08/17/06) what i am after is to evaluate specific hard coded time in addition to the date entered, i.e. even tho, i haven't entered time on the cboDate/cboDate2, I want specific time hard coded where e.g If i select a date range of 08/17/06 and 08/18/06 on my cboDate and cboDate2 it should really be evaluating: 08/17/06 8:00 AM to 08/18/06 8:00 AM.
This is the criteria i curentlly have on my query in design view tha works perfect in selecting date only.
([tblJobDetails]![timeIn]>=[Forms]![frmPendingJobs]![cboDate] Or [tblJobDetails]![timeIn]>=[Forms]![frmPendingJobs]![cboDate] Is Null) And ([tblJobDetails]![timeIn]<=[Forms]![frmPendingJobs]![cboDate2] Or [tblJobDetails]![timeIn]<=[Forms]![frmPendingJobs]![cboDate2] Is Null)
How can I incorporate 8:00am to 8:00am into my cboDate and cboDate2. What can i do to make this happen? Your kindness will be greatly appreciated http://www.naijaryders.com/forums/images/smilies/thankyou.gif

Hi All
I have a form based on a table called tblListMaster and I want to allow users to open up another form showing all the members of one of the entries in that table so I have added a button called 'Show List Members'.
The list members form which I then want to bring up is also based on tblListMembers (it's a master-detail form). When I hit the button to open up the list members form I get an error message saying that the table is already opened exclusively.
I can understand why I get that message so I thought I would be cunning and create a dummy form which I open up, passing in my list id in the openargs (at that point I also close the original form) and then from that dummy form automatically open up the master detail form and close the dummy.
Code in List Master form
Private Sub cmdListMembers_Click()
' open up the list members form
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmDummy", acNormal, , , , , Me.ListId
DoCmd.Close
End Sub
Code in Form Load of dummy form
Private Sub Form_Load()
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmMaintainListMembers", acNormal, , , , acWindowNormal, Me.OpenArgs
DoCmd.Close
End Sub
Sadly I still get the same error message - does any one have any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Form: entryform
Fields:
RecordDate
Department
DepartmentNumber
7 text fields
6 memo
What I am looking to do is be able to click on a combo box for departments so that once a department is selected, the latest record for that department is populated in the form, however, it is opened as a NEW record so that when any changes are made to the information in the form to the text or memo fields, it is saved as a new record.
I'm having a lot of trouble with this.
Thank you very much in advance for your help.

I built an info application for a friend in business. Its based on a kiosk style menu with selections, and when a button is clicked it executes "FormOpen" and brings up a second form with the results in it.
Its important for this application that they are two seperate forms which display the results, lets call them form1 and form2 for this exercise.
My problem is that when form1 opens form2, it LOCKS form1. And if you are to try and select a list menu, or click a button on form1, when form2 is concurrently open, it 'beeps' with no function. Whether it be by .disabled or whether its some sort of record lock (to stop a person from editing in two places at once), I'm not sure.
Basically, form1 never needs to have records updated, its the kiosk remember ie. form1 serves as a menu. But when form2 is open i would prefer it if they could could still click buttons on form1 to execute filters for the query i have on form2.
I've tried fidding around with the .disabled property on form1, and then i also thought about the record lock and tried DISABLING data entry on the first form so perhaps access could work around. Nothing has worked. There is also nothing in the book that i have on access.
Please help!!! You will be much loved. Even if you just tell me its not possible then i can sleep easy.
Kind Regards
Jeremy

Is there a way to open a form from a form in a different database? I'm pretty sure it needs to be done in VBA and have seen some code floating around that suggests it can be done, but I'm thinking there's more to it, like maybe one or both of the DB's need to be in a different format?

Hi All,
Is there a way that when the user clicks on a database file, the form pops up without opening MS Access window.

Is there a way you can set where a from Opens in relation to a button or a piece of text you select.
Basically I have a main form, with some selectable options on the LHS of the screen, rather than use buttons I have text boxes programmed to open a form using the "On-Click" event, I want the new form to open right next to the text box, so it will look like a drop down menu.
Additionally the main form could be moved around the screen, is there a way of locking the 2nd form to be next to the text box ?
Additionally I know I could use a list to but I am trying to design the DB with a certain look.
Many thanks
MattP
