Subform And Listbox To Appear The Same To An End User
Jan 13, 2006
I have been using list boxes in preference to continuos subforms to good effect
however, on certain columns where there is a numeric value, i would like the column date to align right
as i understand i cannot format the alignment of individual columns in a list box, i will then have to use a continuous form instead
thats okay, but i would like the user interface for both listboxs and continuous subform to be the same for the end user
does anybody have any ideas on how to have the continuous subform acting the same as a listbox, in so far as
the mouse pointer staying a pointer rather than a cursor over the rows in a continuous subform
on clicking anywhere on a CS row the event is actioned
thank you

Access 2007-10
Listbox created: List62 (I know I need to rename it, but for now)
Multi-select: Extended
Row Source Type: Field List
Row Source: qryFieldList
Open Query: qrySelectedFields (I added primary key to first column, just to have at least one destination field).
Goal: to select multiple fields within listbox, click on command button to open query "qrySelectedFields" with selected fields from list box.This is the code I have on the command_click:
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim strSQL As String
If Me.List62.ItemsSelected.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "Please select one or more fields.", vbExclamation, "Healthcare REIT"
Me.List62.SetFocus
End If
[code]....
It does absolutely nothing - doesn't add the fields to "qrySelectedFields", doesn't open the query, notta.

hey everyone.
I have a form, and this form contains a list box which displays data from a query. When you double click on the list result it displays the results on the form. (This is done by some visual basic code)
The query which is the source of the list box works so that it displays just the results for that client, with this everything is perfect as an individual form.
However this form is a subform for another form and the subform is placed in a tab. And when i load the form it:
1. Can't find the field to filter the list box to each specific client.
2. When i double click on anything in the list table it displays an error "can't find the form 'frm_jobs' referred to in macro expression or visual basic code".
As it works perfectly when the forms loaded separatley. Im a bit stuck to what the problem maybe.
Thank you for any help.

I have subform which uses a SQL statement as the record source.
One of the criteria (ie. Part of the WHERE condition) is a column value from a ListBox on the MainForm.
Two problems exist:
1. When the MainForm opens, I get a "Enter Parameter Value" window, asking me to input
the value it should be getting from the ListBox. (I suppose this is fair enough, as the ListBox hasn't been
created/populated yet!)
2. When the ListBox is there, when I click on a row, I still get the "Enter Parameter Value" window!
-I'm using a Requery on the Subform's control on the MainForm when the row is clicked.
-A MsgBox within the OnClick event, is giving me the value that the SQL statement should be using!
But the Subform doesn't seem to want to 'see' this value.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I have a listbox that navigates my form to a specific record based on ClientID
I also have a subform. This form has a field Called clientID which I want to pull all records with the current ClientID.
I can't get my subform to query only the records with the current ClientID in the ClientID field. How can I do this?

Hi All, Thank you for taking the time to read and/or help.
I have a mainform which I call frm1930Census this form has a tabbed form with two subforms one called sbf1930CenHeader and the other called sbf1930CenDep.
On the sbf1930CenDep form, I have a field called FTMID and a command button which opens a popup listbox search form called LstDepSearch.
The listbox has three columns FTMID, LastName, FirstName. The FTMID field is hidden. The popup form in theory stays open until the user double clicks the appropriate person and then have the FTMID field on the frm1930Census.sbf1930CenDep.fTMID fill in.
This is what I have....
Private Sub LstDepSearch_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
Forms.fm1930Census!sbf1930CenDep.Form!FTMID = Me.LstDepSearch.Column(0)
DoCmd.Close
End Sub
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have five list boxes set to a table in my database. Here is what a few rows in my table look like...
ID IngredientName IngredientType Cost
1 Ham Meat $1.23
2 Beef Meat $3.45
...... ....
27 Lettuce Vegetable $0.22
28 Onion Vegetable $0.12
..... ....
38 Mayonaise Sauce $0.13
The five listbox controls each show the list by the IngredientType, so one listbox shows vegetables, another Meat, and so on. Multi-select is turned on for each listbox. Here is what I want to do: In the form I want to have a subform that will show what the user clicks in listboxes. This running list, with an extra column next to it that will accept a number. Example: say the user selects 'Ham' from the meat listbox. The subform should then show 'Ham' and a space next to it where he can type an integer (allowing for more meat).
Subform:
Ham | 2
Lettuce | 1
Mayo | 1
Subroll | 1
If the user de-selects the item in the listbox I'd like the subform to delete the item from itself.

I have a Listbox that I want to use to go to a record on a subform. I know that it cant be done with the wizard.
The records that I am looking at don't have an ID so I want to look at both a date field [TrainingDate] and a Time Field [TrainingTime]. I have set the querry up and the list gets populated with the correct information. And I have added the following code to the AfterUpdate Event
Code:
DoCmd.SearchForRecord , "", acFirst, "[TrainingDate] = " & Str(Nz(Screen.ActiveControl, 0))
The reason that it has no RecordID is that the records could be imported and that would produce duplicates.

Using Access 2003.
I will have a ListBox on the form with “Multi Select” set to either simple or extended. I have a collection of documents which must be recorded in a database. Some documents may have only one author, but could have more. Same with the recipient or copied-to.
Ideally it would be nice to have the ListBox on the left, selected one or more from the list and then pass them to one of the three fields by a command button, sort of like:
cmdAuthorAuthor1
LISTBOXcmdRecipientsRecipient1; Recipient2
cmdCopiedTo Copy1; Copy2; Copy3
I would like to have all of the names selected from the ListBox as a string, but fully understand the problems associated with normalization. Other posts have suggested subforms. So, the question is how to select from the ListBox and then pass the possible multiple selections to discrete fields on a subform that would display, say three fields and which would get away from the normalization issues:
cmdAuthor [Author1] [ ] [ ]
LISTBOXcmdRecipients [Recipient1] [Recipient2] [ ]
cmdCopiedTo [Copy1] [Copy2] [Copy3]
The secondary issue will be that there will be subsequent names which are not found until actually in the process of document review which will create a need to update the ListBox, which I know is not akin to a ComboBox NotInList function.
If there are any thoughts or coding out there which will help, it’d be appreciated.

First listbox is a subcontractor name if I choose the name the second list box will show me the names of the emplyess attached to this subcontractor. Second form is subcontractor details with emplyees subform. If I will dblclick subcontractor listbox it takes me to record with subcontractor but I can't figuret out how to do that if I dblclick the employee listbox it will take me to appropriet subcontractor detail and to wright employee details. PLEASE HELP ME. I'm strugling with this. Thanks
I've made it to set focus to subform, but if I will choose a subcontractor from the first listbox and dblclick on lstEmployee it is choose wrong record of the employee. Have somebody have an idea what I'm doing wrong
I don't know how to attach the file,can sombody tell me how.
Code of this listbox:
Private Sub lstEmployee_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
DoCmd.OpenForm "Subcontractors", acNormal, "", "", , acNormal
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acGoTo, Forms!Menu!lstSubcontractor
Forms!Subcontractors!tblEmployeesubform.SetFocus
Forms!Subcontractors!tblEmployeesubform.Form.Emplo yeeID.SetFocus

I am trying to get my VBA to filter the subform, as currently it does nothing! I have copied it from a source on another forum and at the end of the VBA it originally opened up the query.
However I am trying to tailor this query so that instead of it opening the query I can have a datasheet on the form that displays the filtered records..
There are 3 multiselect listboxes
Here is my code
' This code uses ADO and ADOX and is suitable for Access 2000 (and later).
' A reference must be set to Microsoft ADO Ext. 2.7 for DDL and Security.
Private Sub cmdOK_Click()
Dim cat As New ADOX.Catalog
Dim cmd As New ADODB.Command
Dim qry As ADOX.View
[Code] ....

I need to have the user select what fields he wants displayed in the subform, (this i think would be best to have a selectionform open and have a list of fields that can be placed in the sub form i was thinking of using checkboxes for this), then i would like to open the mainform and the subform would display only the fields the user selected.

I am building a user creation form. I set it up like the screen shot in the first attachement. 3 different tabs.
In tab 1 you create the user which then gets a unique key (DocentenID).
Tab 2 you can input more information about the user (in a different table).
I want it to grab the primary key (DocentenID) and insert that into a field in the other table same goes for tab 3.

I have a form with multiple textboxes and comboboxes that allow for user entry, and a subform displaying a table, where the entries from the form are saved and can be retrieved. It's basically a way of creating new task entries and editing existing ones from a single interface.
One of the fields is an "issue number" of sorts, which is a 5-digit code that identifies the task. We have a website where details of each task are stored, and the URL format is akin to this: [URL] ....
The functionality that I'm hoping for is that when the user saves the record, it will be saved as the full link address, by concatenating the static first portion of the address and the code entered by the user. However, I need the table to still only display the code, not the whole link address, and will follow the full address when clicked in the subform table.

I have created a simple database, with 2 x tables. The first is a 'Week Ending' table, with a dateid key and Week Ending field. I have created several week-ending dates in order for a user to input details of work done the previous week. The second table contains the details of the work.
I have a one to many relationship between the dateid in the first table, and a dateid of the work details table.
I created a query based on the work details table, and created a subform from that. In a main form I linked a combo box to allow a user to select a date and the relevant work details appear in the subform. However the Week Ending field only shows one date, not a list of the dates I created.

How can I make certain my user enters records on a subform before attempting to save the main form? Right now they can completely ignore the subform before saving the record.The Main form has business address, etc. on it. the subform is bound to a join table that lists the multiple categories, subcategories and sector the business is listed in for a directory.
I already have my fields set to required at the table level in the join table, and have some existing VBA in both my subform (to update edited date) and my form (to validate empty records where a certain condition is met) but that's not the issue...
How do I focus the user to enter a record on the subform to the point where they are forced to enter something and complete the subform before the record is updated.

Hi, I'm new here, so I hope I'm posting this in the correct place. I've searched the forum to see if there are any existing threads that might help me, but I've not found anything that does...
(I think this thread ( http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=93444&highlight=Copying+data )may be trying to achieve something similar to me, but I'm a beginner and don't really understand it)
I shall stop waffling! I'm not entirely sure that what I'm trying to achieve is possible, I expect it probably is!
Right, I have a form (frmGroupRegister, which contains exactly the same fields as the table it comes from, tblGroupRegister), which consists of three things:
-GroupDate - The date a group took place on. It is my primary key, as no more than one group occurs on a specific date.
-ParentList (A listbox which contains a query showing the ID number, forename and surname of everyone in a table, tblParentDetails)
-ParentsAttending (A blank listbox)
I would like to place buttons in between the ParentList and ParentsAttending, which would allow users to conduct a 'register' of attendance by copying individual/multiple details from ParentList into ParentsAttending (much like you get when choosing which fields to include in a form when using a wizard for example). I would also like them to be able to remove people from ParentsAttending by using a button in case of accidentally adding the wrong person into the ParentsAttending box.
I'm aware that another, probably simpler way of achieving this would be to use a tick-box system, but I feel that visually, the first method would both look better and demonstrate who is present more clearly.
Any help would be much appreciated, but my Access skills are quite basic and things will probably need to be spelled out for me.
I'm using Access 2000 and Windows XP.
Thanks for your help,
Alice :)

I am using the selections made of the form to generate a query for the user.
I have a CITIES listbox that is populated with values from a stored query.
I would like to make it multi-select and populate a LOCATIONS list box and a NAMES list box based upon the CITIES that are selected.
I have the locations currently populated from a stored query that reads the City selection from the Form. It looks like this
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT (t_location.LOCATION) AS Expr1
FROM t_location INNER JOIN t_asset_master ON t_location.LOCATION_PHY_ID = t_asset_master.LOCATION
WHERE (((t_location.CITY)=[Forms]![MasterQueryGenerator]![CityList]));
I also want multi-select so that is you can un-select all and get the results for all cities.
Here is my half thought approach.
Code:
Private Sub CityList_AfterUpdate()
'Dim LocQryStr As String
'Dim r As Integer
'Dim ctl9 As Control
'LocQryStr = "SELECT DISTINCT (t_location.LOCATION) " & _
[Code] ...
I intended to have the variable LocQryStr as the row source but I abandoned the idea of having multi-select when I saw that .Selected(I) never returned true. Its like the values aren't read in this subroutine.
