Search Code Work On One Form But Not The Other Form?
Jul 18, 2015
* This code works to search frmMember for criteria found in tblMember:
Private Sub cmdSearch_Click()
If Len(cboSearchField) = 0 Or IsNull(cboSearchField) = True Then
MsgBox "You must select a field to search."
ElseIf Len(txtSearchString) = 0 Or IsNull(txtSearchString) = True Then
MsgBox "You must enter a search string."
[Code] ....
* But this next code which I have copied and Pasted to frmEventInput, then renamed the frm and tbl, retrieves the same criteria as the above (tblMember) instead of the tblEventInfo...
Private Sub cmdSearch_Click()
If Len(cboSearchField) = 0 Or IsNull(cboSearchField) = True Then
MsgBox "You must select a field to search."
ElseIf Len(txtSearchString) = 0 Or IsNull(txtSearchString) = True Then
MsgBox "You must enter a search string."
I am trying to get a wildcard search to work with a form.
I have a query, in which the criteria is:
Like "*" & [Enter a word] & "*"
That works fine. I enter a word, and I get the few records in which the word appears.But if I try to replace [Enter a word] with a word entered on a control on a form, it doesn't work - I get all the records. This is my code:
:(I have a Customer Order form with a Order Detail sub form, The problem I have is that using the productID Combo, IT shows all 6000 products, I need a way to MANUALY enter the ProductID which then will find the relevant record and fill in the rest of the fields in the Sub Detail Order Form.
We are creating a simple database to maintain driver license information for faculty, staff, and students who use cars from the university’s motor pool.
To do this, I have created two tables: tblDRIVER and tblLICENSE.
The fields in tblDRIVER are: pkfDriverIndex strLastName strFirstName strInitial strAddress1 strAddress2 strCity strState strZIP datBirthDate
The fields in tblLICENSE are: pkfUpdateIndex fkfDriverIndex datDateUpdated strState strLicNumber datExpirationDate ynViolations ynActive
Information about the driver is stored in tblDRIVER and the driver’s license information is stored in tblLICENSE. Periodically, we run a report that identifies drivers whose licenses are due to expire within a certain number of days. All this works fine.
My problem is that I am trying to create a lookup form that will load from a data entry form that will permit the Motor Pool Clerk to look up a driver by name and review the licensing information (which appears as a subform).
All this sort of works- I am using a combo box (based on a query) to look up a driver’s last name (which it does) and to populate all the driver’s information on the look-up form (including license information in a subform). Currently, the combo box locates the driver (including the unique index, last, and first names), and populates the form with first and last name but the rest of the information is not displayed on the look up form. Worse still, sometimes one driver’s last name matches up with the first name of the next driver listed in the table! This seems to happen only if a look up is attempted more than once. What gives.
I have a form that has a subform on it. The main form shows a category of furniture and has custom navigation buttons and a search text box for asset numbers and command button that runs the search. The subform shows the asset numbers associated with that furniture category, sometimes there is only one asset number, in other cases there could be 60. There is a scroll bar to scroll through the asset numbers when there are too many to see in the initial window.
The buttons all work as they should except when I search for an asset number that is part of a category that has too many asset numbers to show in the main window. When this happens the "previous" and "next" navigation buttons do not take you to the previous or next record. All of the other buttons on the form work though - you can go to the first, or the last record, and you can search for a new asset.This is the code for the search:
Code:
Private Sub cmdAssetSearch_Click() Dim rs As Object If IsNull(Me.TextAsset) Or Me.TextAsset = "" Then MsgBox "Please type in an asset number to search for.", vbOKOnly Me.TextAsset.SetFocus
[code]....
I've also attached a picture of what I mean when I say there are more asset numbers than what the window shows.
I have a bound form with a few fields. I would like to run a sub after some of these fields are modified, but not others. I would like it to run only once, after user finishes his work on the form.
When using the Unload event - the form on the form is not there anymore (or did I get something wrong?).
Is there a way to trap Data on form just before the form closes?
I have a problem where I can create queries in code using functions such as Left() and they will work fine on my clients machines with a complied MDE file but if I try to use the same function in a saved querie they get an error: "Function is not available in expressions in query expression..."
The Queries work fine on my machine but not on those using Access Runtime. From my research it appears to be a problem with them not having the correct Reference on their machine. If that is true then which Reference do they need and is there away of installing that Reference by code?
I have some simple validation that unit price is greater than 0. The code is this:
If Me.txtUnitPrice.Value <= 0 Then MsgBox "Please enter a value greater than zero", vbOKOnly, "Alert" Me.txtUnitPrice.Value = Null Me.txtUnitPrice.SetFocus End If
However, when I run it, the setfocus doesn't work. It jumps straight into the next field. I can make it run to any other field (productname, productID). But not back to UnitPrice.
Hi I need code to open TeacherDetailFrm form Main form.
I have TeacherStudentSubFr*m on the Mainform, FirstNameTxt on the TeacherStudentSubFr*m, and TeacherDetailFrm. I need code to open the TeacherDetailFrm By double click on the FirstNameTxt.
I use this code but no data come and query dialog box come.
Private Sub FirstNameTxt_DblCli*ck(Cancel As Integer) Dim DocSubForm As String Dim DocText As String DocSubForm = "TeacherDetailFrm" 'DocText = "[Result]=" & "'" & Me![result] & "'" DoCmd.OpenForm DocSubForm, , , "[ FirstNameFld ]=forms![TeacherStudentSubFrm]![ FirstNameTxt]"
End Sub
I like to upload the file but no way in this forum
I am wondering why access does not follow its own code all of the time?
For example I have passworded forms following the tutorial on the Microsoft site. It mostly works when the participants fills in the wrong password we will get an error message box and when they cancel the password dialogue box it wont let the person enter the form - but not all the time. Sometimes if you press cancel it still opens the form anyway (without requiring the correct password).
This is similar with the module that I put in to prevent people from using the mousewheel to leave their record etc. Most times it works but sometimes it just isnt called on form load.
There is nothing wrong with any of these codes and when they work they work well but I cant seem to rely on access to do what is supposed to?
I'm using a 5-tabbed form and have put it in my detail section. Within the on click event of one tab knob i would like to activate some knobs in the form header where the tab resides on.
I've coded everything properly but in one or other way access doesn't seem to communicate between the tabbed form within the details and the form header. Anybody an idea?
I have a process which runs lots of slow append queries, so I want to reassure the user of progress, by changing the font colour of labels to green when the relevant queries have finished. This is the code I'm using
Code: 'Update the older data if that option is selected If Me.Menu_YearOption.Value = 1 Then DoCmd.OpenQuery "2-10 Append FY1112" Me.lbl1112.ForeColor = 32768 Me.Repaint DoCmd.OpenQuery "2-12 Append FY1213"
[Code]...
Each query takes about a minute to run, as it gets data from a sharepoint server, but the labels don't turn green one at a time as expected. Instead, I get the spinning wheel until all the queries have run, then all the labels turn green together.
Is there something else I should be doing rather than Me.Repaint ?
I saved my front end db as .accde in order to distribute it without user being able to edit my objects. As it turned out, when I open the .accde now I see my code doesn't work anymore. I have a lot of startup code and now it doesn't trigger at startup. Basically all my forms use vba code and none of them works in .accde . Accdb version works without any issue.
I have a search form that uses a query to show results of a search, but everytime I press search everything comes up even though I have entered search parameters, even though my search requeries every time and the search used to work before I added new records today. Also when I press the query alone on the navigation pane it asks me for the parameters and then it actually works but it won't when I use my form.
i need to create a system that can search data using keyword.so i want to create search button that i will create it at form. currently i have 1 table and in that table i have 10 fields which are project_name, doc_ref_no, doc_title, volume, book_no, author, doc_status, box_barcode, filling_location, doc_availability.
i have create 2 forms, one form for user to add new record and another one is to search record. the user can search by enter project name, doc title, volume and box barcode. for project name and volume, i use combo box and for doc title and box barcode i'm using text box.
i want to create search function that can detect from user keyword and even user did not fill in all the form, the system still can search the record.
I have a bound form which is from tblEmployee, I'd like to have a dataset below (like a splitform but not a split as they have limits) so when i search in the box it gives me say all the smiths - i select for example david smith and it displays his information in the form objects above so they can be edited?
I've built a PostgreSQL database for some ecology data and am trying to use MS Access 2010 to make a front-end for it.
I've created a form to display site data; it includes such fields as site ID, site name, county, state, landscape, etc. (There are more, but if I can get the idea down with a couple of these, I should be good to handle the rest). One can click through the form and see 14 pages of site details, which is fine because there are 14 sites.
What I want to do now is make a search form in which one can enter values for site ID, site name, county, etc, and somehow get the pages of the display form that match those values. It's not terribly important to me how that output looks - whether it's a list of matches that allows for clicking on a match and showing just one page of the display form, or whether it's a filtered subset of the display form pages that one still clicks through to view them all.
if there is code to write, where do I type it? Do I start my search form by making a form with the search fields as values, or is there some other way? How do I make those search fields into search boxes rather than display boxes?
Hi there people, i have created a query that searches through different fields within the database, and on its own works fine, enter some or no data and it will return what you have entered. The problem is i have created a form with text and combi boxes on that i can enter the query parameters into in one place, but i can not get the search button to use this data and filter the query? the query is a subform on the main search form and is refreshed when the search button is pressed but with no filters defined by the text/ combi boxes. can anyone help please?
I have a quick search on my site and it wont work any more and I cant figure out what is wrong with it? the search uses two check boxes, one for cards and one for comics and all the info is in an access bd with two tables. I'm totally new to all this so I cant figure out what I did wrong here is the form <TD ALIGN="CENTER" HEIGHT="89" WIDTH="330"><font size="4" font color="#FF0000"><b>Quick Search of our Inventory</b></font> <FORM NAME="searchform" ACTION="./html/quick_search_results.asp" METHOD="get"> <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="searchvalue" VALUE="" SIZE=18 MAXLENGTH=26> <INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT NAME="search" VALUE="Search"><br> <INPUT TYPE=CHECKBOX NAME="card" onClick="uncheckcomic()"><FONT COLOR="#FFFFFF">Cards</FONT> <INPUT TYPE=CHECKBOX NAME="comic" onClick="uncheckcard()"><FONT COLOR="#FFFFFF">Comics</FONT><BR> </FORM> </TD> The query string is <script> <!-- function uncheckcomic(){ document.searchform.comic.checked=false } function uncheckcard(){ document.searchform.card.checked=false } --> </script>
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS, I'M TOTALLY CRACKING UP TRYING TO FIGURE THIS OUT
I have a form with two textboxes called: txtAptDep, txtAptArr.
On their right side there are two buttons (btn1, btn2) to open a form called frmAirportSearch. It allows to choose (from a listbox) the airport to be filled in those two textboxes.
Now, if I search for an airport pressing btn1, I want the airport to be returned into txtAptDep, while if I open the form by btn2, the airport choosen must be returned in the second textbox.
creating a searching form and to show the results inside the form! It's like a Library type searching. u want to search for some type of monument or so and it shows the results, all the info, photos and that!
I have a search combo box to search for a field on my form. But it just goes to that particular record. The combo box is for client id and it has more than one record. How can I have it return just the records pertaining to the client id choosen in the combo box.
I need to implement a Quick search feature in my employee application.
So that when any text is typed into the textbox, it searches the db for a match:
e.g. firstname lastname ss# employeeId deptId officelocation deptname
It returns the record in the employee table that consist of the text typed in the search box. Most websites have this quick search feature (blanket search..is that what it's called?) and a link for advanced search, where they can select specific fields to search.
Does your Tools Reference have an MS Office 15.0 Object Library?
Just had to share this strange occurrence in the VB Code Module:
I use breakpoints all the time, was just using them yesterday.
Noticed that some events seemed to act differently this morning. The front-end was approaching 88 MB (after compress) so it is time for a change anyway.
Created a new blank Access dB (Access 2010) and imported all objects from my last backup revision. Reset the home page and tools References. Matched the settings side by side. As usual, the database shrank from 88 MB to 60 MB. The import all objects will usually compress things about this much.
From the screen shot, put breakpoints in previous code, added a new Lost-focus event and added a message box. None of the breakpoints work. The message box fires on the lost_focus and all of the code in the Click event works fine. But, not a single break point would work.
Totally powered down and restarted the Windows 7 32 bit Enterprise workstation. Still no change.
Took the screen shot of Tool-References from the code module of a two week old archive version. Used it to evaluate my new imported object database.To my surprise, the Microsoft Office 14.0 Object library is now Microsoft Office 15.0 Object Library.Also put all the objects back in the same order. Saved and closed the new imported object database.Now, the breakpoints work just fine.
I had failed to reference the Office 15 Object Library and the VBA Extensibility 5.Office 14 Object Library is nowhere to be found except on my 2 week old backup archive.
Is this a Microsoft auto update? Is this what drives the breakpoint in the code module?
i have a DB which tracks order numbers, the main table is a SQL table linked in, and there are lots of local tables as well, one of which is called userDetails and contains a field useremail
i want to open a form and only show records from trackermaindata that contain my useremail -
SELECT dbo_TrackerMainData.userEmail FROM dbo_TrackerMainData, userDetails WHERE dbo_TrackerMainData.userEmail=userDetails.useremai l;
when i double click this query in access it works and it shows me only my records, but when i try and run this query from a button (using a macro) in my form, it asks me to Enter Parameter Value userDetails.useremail
i've tried lots and lots of things so far and nothing works. i have lots of other queries which do work, but they don't reference another table - they either contain a static value or take their data from an entry box.
can anyone give any reason why this should not work? it seems straight forward enough!!
