I have a find command button that appears to call the find and replace message box. It should be a search for anything in my query. The code behind the button looks like the find and replace message box in the office suite. I believe I am trying to create a message box where you add an entry and it searches then lauches a subform with my entries.
When I checked the button it had the following code:
Private Sub cmdFind_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdFind_Click
I read a few of the lookup queries but they only give me a drop down. Is there some way to customize the box comes up without altering all of Office or do I just sound lost.
I know you can create a find record command button really simply, which when clicked will display the find and replace window.
What i want to do is create a command button that will search a specific field that i specify in a report for the criteria i enter.
i.e i have a customer information form, which contains
AccountNo CompanyName Address Postcode Tel etc
what i want is a button that when clicked brings up an input field that allows the user to type the name of the company into this field, then when either the enter key is pressed or another button on this pop up window the matching record will be displayed or a error window stating that there are no matching records. Can anyone help me with this.
Hello All, I was wondering when you use a find command, if you can make it so it searches two tables from the form your currently viewing, not just the data from the table that is tied to that current form.
Second question is I am thinking about maybe taking some "1 day" classes on access. My question is how many people have taken these & are they worth the money, or is it easier just to buy a book & if buying a book is better what is a good access book to buy.
Is there a way to use the find command in access in one report to search throughout the whole database. For instance, I am designing a database that in a report it shows the number identifier of an item, and the actual detailed information is located in a separate form. What I want it to do is to be able to find the detailed information from a command within the report that only has the number identifier.
I am rewriting an old Access 2003 database in Access 2010. When creating new command buttons, the current theme gives them a default appearance. I need to apply this appearance to old command buttons. I know there is a way to select the default button and apply its properties to others quickly. I have done it before but didn't write the process down .
I have been working on a simple data base for some time now (beginner level) and am still trying to improve it. I would like to do something but before that I would like to have your opinion to know if it is even possible?I have a query QryMainReport:
Start Date/Time End Date/Time Employee
At the moment this is what the format of my report looks like (I removed other unnecessary fields):
StartTime----------EndTime---------------Employee 12/06/2014 01:00--12/06/2014 03:00------John Smith 12/06/2014 04:00--12/06/2014 06:00------Jane Doe 13/06/2014 02:00--13/06/2014 05:00------John Smith 13/06/2014 08:00--13/06/2014 08:00------Jane Doe
I would like to do as a report. (Dates would always be from Sunday to Saturday). I am not sure it is possible to do that. I suppose first it would mean:I would have to do a query to separate the times from the dates?I would have to find a way for Access to find the unique dates and unique names?Does it mean I have to use cross tab queries?
A customer's name is SZEE. Seek him through the SName textbox with Find, and Access can't find him. (Same in the table.) Seek him with a wildcard Sz* and there he is.
I've tried it on another machine - also with Access2k - and it's the same.
Is it an Access quirk? Is there an answer? (The client asks why. Be good to be able to say.) Cheers.

Is there any way I can do a search that lets me put in a section of a part number and the part number be found? I only see how I can find the number if I put in the entire number.
I think this is fairly simple, but being as I haven't ever done it! I want to do a search to find all records less those called "Default". As I say I just cant think how to do it. Any help appreciated. Thanks
Im creating a database for college using MS access 2003.
I have 3 table that contain data and i am building form to allow a user to search for a particular customer. The customer ID in my customer table is an auto number.
I have a button on my form and it shows the find and replace box when pressed which is what i want but i then want it so that when a user types a customer ID number in to that find and replace box and it is an exact match for the find and replace box to auto close else show an Error message and allow the user to input another customer number,
Im sure there is macro code to do this so im asking if anyone knows or has any better ideas?
I have attempted for two days to following codes. I am still unable to get the way out. Would you give me a help?
The field fund_cd is a combo box of transaction table to look up reference table called fund_type. Here is the structure of fund_type:
fund_cd text 3
fund_desc text 50
fund_currency text 5
My needs are to pull both values of fund_cd and fund_currency to transaction table, so 1 combo box cannot meet my needs. As such, I write following codes to base on selected fund_cd to find appropriate value of fund_currency in fund_type.
From the code below, I meet the run-time error ‘3001’ and I am not sure can I finally get fund_currency using method of GetString.
I am trying to code a combo box control to find a record. This is incredibly simple but for some reason it won't work. Could you tell me what I am missing. I have put the following code in the after update of the control
Dim rs as Object Set rs= Me.Recordset.Clone rs.FindFirst "[ContestNo]='"&Me![Combo23] & "'" Me.Bookmark=rs.Bookmark
I don't get any errors but it won't work either...any ideas??
I have an unbound text box. I want the user to be able to type in all or part of a title for a movie. Hit the find button and then have a form open with entry's based on the text box.
I have been working on this for awhile, and can't figure it out for the life of me!
I have a form set up with a drop down box that lets me pick from values from a table based off of the Primary Key of that table (Row Source = SELECT Order.OrderID, Order.OrderName from Order). I have a button on the form that I want to set a value (Closed) from the table entry based off of the order selected.
Pseudo code would go something like this.
Closed.Value = True Where Table.Order.OrderID = SelectedOrderID
Table.Order is a Table Named Order (obviously) Closed is a yes/no field in my Order table OrderID is the primarykey of the table Order SelectedOrderID is the drop down box.
I, unfortunately, have been singled out as the Access guru in my work area. We have 223 people and the Information Manager has tasked me to modify a database he "found" to be able to track a number of things, but most important to him: performance reports.
I have posted the sample of what I currently have. What is being asked of me is a way in which to have a button or by double-clicking a block where a date would go for all other dates on the form to become non-visible while the current date stored in the computer the database is being worked from be entered in the block where the button or double-click happened. All this links to a report for the IM to be able to track what performace reports are out, and when they are due back to his section. He also wants me to be able to show which are overdue and where they are at. I am not sure if it is at all possible, but with me having spend most of last week purusing the articles on Access here, I know now that nothing is implausible if you happen to go about it the right way.
Since I have read the rules on posting, here is what I have done. I searched the forum for command button and got a lot of really cool ideas to use elsewhere in the database. I looked up the help in the program itself for command button, and got some good information on how a command button works, but I cannot make it put a date into a block. I can enter the date in any block that is a date format, but then I have dates in every block. He only wants to see the most current date in any of the blocks.
Any assistance at this point would be appreciated. If I have missed something in another thread, I apologise in advance.
A couple of weeks ago I asked the question of how to send a single record from one table to another (Archive table) using a command button. I got a response. I have had time to work with this a little. My problem is I keep getting a error message "Run-time error '3075'; Syntax error (missing operator) in Query expression "[New ID]='. I wanted to mention that the archive table has an "archive ID" field as well as "New ID" that links the tables. I have the following code. Please help with this if possible.
" Private Sub Command667_Click() ' Save the main record if it has not been saved. If Me.Dirty Then DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSave Me.Recalc End If
If MsgBox("Do you want to archive this record?", vbYesNo) = vbYes Then Dim SQL As String
' Move main record to Grants Activity Archive. SQL = "Insert into [Grants Activity Archive]" & _ " select * from [Grants] where [New ID]=" '" & Me.ID & "'" CurrentDb.Execute SQL Me.Recalc End If
End Sub "
The error seems to refer to the & Me.ID section. I have tried putting Me.New ID and also Me.Archive ID. The Grants Activity Archives is the subform where I want the record to go. This subform is set up like a form with many fields so it is a lot of work to type the main record from the Grants table to the Grants Activity Archive table every time you want to archive a record. I hope that makes sense.
I am a newbie at Access and I am currently learning it for my job...I have a database going and I am wanting to do two things and I can not figure it out for the life of me.
Little background, the database I made is a continuous form. I am wanting a command button that when pushed will put it in data entry mode, and when pressed again will put back in a 'view all' state. I know it is a simple If Then, but I don't know VBA very well =
Other thing, is I wanting to be able have button that when pressed will output to an excel sheet, right now I have it when it is pressed it asks me what kind of format I want outputted, and I want it automated to just go straight to excel.
hi i was wondering if anyone can tell me a condition or a command in which a user will be able to enter only 6 digit number. like 123456. if he tries to enter 234 the database should not accept. is this possible also? any help would be great. Thanks
I am trying to count how many records has a table with a special value (SolicitaçãoID.Text) but I keep getting error: Compile Erro: User-Defined not defined
And it goes to this line: Dim db As DAO.Database
This is the command:
Private Sub CmdAmostra_Click() Dim db As DAO.Database Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim intResult As Integer Dim strSQL As String
Set db = CurrentDb SolicitaçãoID.SetFocus strSQL = "SELECT COUNT (*) As RecordCount FROM Protocolo_O where SolicitaçãoID=" & SolicitaçãoID.Text Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL, dbOpenSnapshot)
intResult = rs("RecordCount")
MsgBox intResult
Amostras.SetFocus Amostras.Text = intResult
rs.Close db.Close
End Sub
Well i have no clue what that error means and why. Thanks for the Help Art
How do I make the command buttons on my form actually do something, the only one that attempts to work is "DELETE RECORD" the others dont do anything at all
