Forms :: Save Form Record On Move To Next Field In Record?

Jan 15, 2014

After I enter data into one field in a record I would like the form to save the record when I move to another field in the same record. It seems that the record is only saved when I exit it entirely. Is there a way to save a record when moving between fields in that record? Can this be done without using an Event Procedure for each field?

2. Is there a wey to pause or stop a make table query to see the results and then let it run again?

Forms :: Make Certain User Enter Records On Subform Before Attempting To Save Main Form

Dec 4, 2014

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.

Unable To Save A Record Because A Record Is Required

Oct 31, 2005

I have a database set thus

Clients (the main form)

ClientsID (PK)
blah blah
Information and Referral (a check box)
blah blah
blah blah

ClientIR (the form that opens up when I & R is checked)

IR ID (PK)
ClientsID (FK to the above form)
Requests (a lookup referencing to IRCategory)

The code is set up so when the I R box is checked, form will open, and unchecking it will delete the I R record of that Client.

The problem is when the IR Box is already open, the request has been selected, I cannot save it as Access says a record is required in the Clients form. There are only two buttons, one goes on to next requests (one client can have more than one requests), other saves and closes.

The Client form is already coded so it will save the Client's record before opening the IR Form, and either button will save the IR record as well.

I had referential intergrity turned on. Turning it off only gave me weird results (I was able to input records, but Access didn't autofill the ClientID in the IR records, and looking at Clients returns a blank IR record)

What am I doing wrong?


Thanks

Column Names. Can I Make The Name Field "higher"? (to Make Room For More Lines)

Sep 25, 2006

I'm currently working with a form, which is in datasheet view. I have many rows which are combo boxes (yes/no), and the name is rather long. So each line (each row) spreads on to 2-3 pages to the right.What I would like to do is make the namebar, on top of every column, a little bit higher, so the name would be split into two lines, or three. Allowing me to make the width allot smaller.Here is an example of my problem:http://213.213.137.96/~terminal/columns.jpgSo my question is, can I change the height of the column name? Or is there some trick I can use?regardsFrímann Kjerúlf

Save Record

Apr 25, 2006

Hi all,

I am wondering if there is a way to save a record in this manner.

When the user opens the form wait 1 second and then save.

But I would like it to do this only once. I have tried the “on timer” but it keeps saving the record every second.

Thanks in advance

Record Tries To Save Twice

Dec 14, 2005

I have an unbound form that I load with one record. The record is selected based on a selection made in a list box on a previous form.

Then changes can be made to the data.

Then I want to click the save button which runs a stored procedure to update the table with the new data. I DON'T want Access to automatically post the record for me.

But when I hit save it tries to update twice and gives me a warning - it saves through the stored procedure and then tries to save again as the form closes. (I'm assuming. - I get a warning that says another user has changed the record and do I want to overwrite the changes.) I think it's because right now I load it with fields from a view.

Here is the code that opens the form and gives it the recordsource....

Option To Not Save Record

Feb 17, 2005

My database has a master quote form with a gajillion subforms. The database is set up so if a user wants to enter a new quote, a button "enter new quote" is clicked and a new record pops up. (The form is attached to a master quote table.) Originally I thought if the user chooses to create a new quote, they will, and follow through till the end. Now I'm wondering if I should give them the option to save or delete created quote.

Save is automatic, ofcourse, but not sure what method to use to delete record. Will potentially need to delete info from subforms. All tables in use are enforced with referential integrity and cascade delete.

Also, user can go into previously created quote and change if need be (until the quote is approved then this is not possible). Would like to give option of undoing changes and again, I'm not sure what method to use.

Any help much appreciated!

Save Entire Record At Once

Jan 24, 2006

Hi Guys

I have a main table, which I then query specifying 'XXX' in multiple fields to bring back no records. Then I set up a form based on that query so I always have a blank form to enter details to the table.

Access is saving the record every time I amend a field. I'm now stipulating that many of the fields must have data in and am repeatedly getting the 'field name must not be zero' error message even when I'm nowhere near that field.

I need to disable autosave and then put the docmd.acsave etc once all fields are complete.

Any ideas how best to do this?

Save Record With A Form

Feb 10, 2005

I have created a Form to add customer payment entries to our database which will be added to the TRANSACTIONS table. I have a combo box which allows us to lookup our account number from the main CUSTOMERS table designated in the row source of the combo box. The rest of the fields use control sources from the TRANSACTIONS table which is the table that will contain the new records. I have added a Command Button that is labeled "Save Record" and it is programmed to do just that. My problem is that the records are being added to the TRANSACTIONS table even before I click my command button. I have the "date" feild in the form set to auto populate today's date. When I open the form, select an account number and tab to the date or any other field, and then close the form WITHOUT clicking the command button, the record is still added to the table. Can anyone help me to stop this from happening? I do not want anything added to the table until the "Save Record" button is clicked.

I have the Roger Jennings book: "Using MS Access 2003" and also the "MS Access 2003 Bible", but I am still unable to find an answer to my problem.

Thanks for any assistance.

Can't Save Record Changes Due To Unique Index

May 22, 2007

Hi,
I'm not sure where to post this, maybe VBA or Forms would be better, but I think it's fundamentally an index problem, so I'm posting here. I've searched both the net and here, but most of the questions are about preventing duplicate records.

I want to prevent duplicate records but save changes to existing records.

I have a form based on a table that has a 3-field-unique-index (but not the primary index, which is autonumber). I've written a function to check for existing records with the given combination of the three fields, as long as all have data (it bails if any are null). I'm calling the function from BeforeUpdate for each of the textbox controls. I was also calling it from the form's BeforeUpdate, but commented it out as it seemed redundant. I have other code there verifying that the user wants to keep the changes.

I'm trying to save the users from getting all the way to the end before discovering there's a problem. To test it, I added then deleted one character from one of the three relevant fields in an existing record, and bing, up pops my alert that I'm violating the index. Then I can't leave the field, I'm stuck there because I can't save the record.

I want it set up so that other fields in the record can be changed/updated AND so that a new record for the same person can't be entered (a dupe).

Oh, and I'm running into all kinds of problems with acCmdSaveRecord not being available. I feel like an idiot that I haven't been able to make sense of the posts about that. I can just comment it out and let Access save the record when it closes the form. But my bosses really want the users prompted about saving changes.

Any thoughts or suggestions or insights greatly appreciated. I really tried to search this out, so any tips for better searching are also appreciated.

Here's the code for the function:

Public Function CheckForClientDupes()
Dim response As Variant
Dim strFamID, strLName, strFName As String
Dim strFilter As String

If IsNull(Me!FamilyIDNo) Or IsNull(Me!strLastName) Or IsNull(Me!strFirstName) Then
Exit Function
End If

strFilter = "[strFamilyIDNo] = """ & Me!FamilyIDNo & """ And " & "[strLastName] = """ & Me!strLastName & """ And " & "[strFirstName] = """ & Me!strFirstName & """"

If DCount("*", "tblClients", strFilter) > 0 Then

response = MsgBox("There is already a client with this combination of FamilyID, Last and First names in this database. Would you like to Continue Anyway (Yes) or cancel data entry and Erase Your Changes (No)?", vbYesNo, "Duplicate Client Alert")
If response = vbYes Then
' DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
Else
response = MsgBox("You have chosen to cancel your changes. Your changes will be erased.", vbOKCancel + vbQuestion, "Data Entry Cancelled")
If response = vbOK Then
Me.Undo
Else
Exit Function
End If
End If
End If

' Me.FamilyIDNo.SetFocus

End Function

Save Date Change Record

Aug 25, 2005

In a database I want to know the when the last change of a record has been made. I know one way to do it, but is not realy efficient:

I made the folowing sub

Private Sub addtime()
Date_of_Record.Value = Now()
End Sub

I call this sub if one of the 200+ :eek: inputboxes change:

Private Sub inputbox_change
call addtime
End Sub

Is there a more efficient way to save the date the record is last modified???

thanks in advance

Save Record Without Navigation Or Closing

Jul 20, 2006

Hi

I have a form with a button and a text box

The control source for the text box is a Number field called FileNo in a Table called File. THe default value of the text box is 0.

When the button is clicked a value is calculated using the last value under FileNo in the Table.

The problem is that I have to either navigate the records or close the form in order to save the new value onto the Table.

I need to be able to save a new value to the Table as soon as it is generated without having to close or navigate. So that I get some new value everytime I click the button without closing the Form.
(when the button is clicked 1 will be added to the last value under FileNo on Table File)

Save Record Button Needs A Hyperlink

Dec 2, 2006

Hey all,

I am embedding a MS Access 2003 Database form into web page (iframe) by creating a "Data Access" form.

I have created it all and it works fine. But there is one last thing i need to sort out.

When the user clicks the Submit button (Really a Save Record Button), i would like the button to also forward the visitor to a basic "Thank You" html page, in the actual iframe. At the moment the record saves, but it doesn't give the visitor any acknowledgement that they submitted successfully.

What code do i need to add to the <Button> code on the Data Access form, in order to create a hyperlink. I am not too familiar with VB.

Thanks.

User Unable To Save Record?

Jan 25, 2007

I have a problem where a user (with what I believe are the proper security settings) cannot save a new record in a form. I have set the securities on the form and the related table and query to allow this user to create new records (Add/Run).

This user is able to access the form and enter the data, but it will not save. I have added a "Save" button to no avail.

When I log on as the administrator, it works fine.

Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Modules & VBA :: Save New Record Before It Gets Printed

Feb 9, 2015

I need to save a new record from a form before it gets printed, the vba code behind the print button at the minute just opens the report and inserts the record in it. I need to put something in before that to save the record when the button is clicked.

The form in question is frmPlaceOrderFinal and I'm referring to the print button (command17). I've attached my system as well as an image for reference. The code that is currently behind the button:

Code:
Private Sub Command17_Click()
Dim strDocName As String
Dim strWhere As String
strDocName = "rptFinalInvoice"
strWhere = "[InvoiceID]=" & Me!InvoiceID
DoCmd.OpenReport strDocName, acPreview, , strWhere
End Sub

I need to save the record before it is opened in the report.
