Combo Boxes Filtering Or Populting Same Records

Filtering On Combo Boxes
I have a question about filtering on combo boxes. I was able to set up a form with 2 sub-forms, but it's more than what I need.

What I want it to do, is when the user makes the selection on the first combo box, I want it to filter on that selection and then drop that into the 2nd combo box. When the user makes the selection on teh 2nd combo box, then it should filter the results to a sub-form.

Any help? I have the relationships, and can get it to work when I have 1 form, and 2 sub-forms, but I really want just 1 form, with 1 subform.

Filtering Out Items In Combo Boxes
Need some help here....

I am designing a database to keep track of workers for a haunted house. I have a Roster table, a table of all the nights we are open, a table of Spots in the house, and a table to record who works what nights and what spot they are in. This table has a Room combo box and a Spot combo box. The Room combo has a Row Source of SELECT DISTINCT SpotsAll.Room FROM SpotsAll ORDER BY SpotsAll.Room; The Spot combo is then populated with VB code all the Spots that are in that room. That works fine. This is what I'm trying to accomplish: When a Spot is assigned to a Worker for that night, I want that spot to no longer be available in that list FOR THAT PARTICULAR NIGHT. So, lets say Joe Somebody works in Spot 1 (out of 4 lets say) of the Library Room, when we assign another person to the Library room, I don't want Spot 1 in the Spot list.

Can this be done with a query or VB code? If I'm not making sense, please let me know. I can also upload the Database I am creating so that you can play around with it and see what I mean.

(I have attached a word doc. that shows the table relationships.)


Thanks a lot ahead of time!!

Filtering Combo Boxes Within A Form
I have a form that we are creating to issue project numbers. We have about 80 different clients. I have set up a combo box for the client name, where we can choose the client from the drop down menu. We want the form to filter according to the client name that you choose. For example, if you pick Lawrence as the client name, the next combo box is the project name and I want it to only show the project names that have been assigned to Lawrence in the past. Can someone please help me on how to do this and if it is even possible at all? Thank you so much for your help!! I have been wrestling with this for about a week and a half now.

Help Needed Filtering A Form Using Combo Boxes
Please help. My inability to achieve this is very frustrating.

I have a tabular form based on a query, which returns a large number of records. I need users to be able to filter the records to display data relating to what they have entered in a number of combo boxes.

For example I have fields showing Product ID, Manufacturer ID, Purchase Order number and due date. Each of these fields has a corresponding unbound combo box where users can select values that appear in the table. I need to be able to filter the form based on what is in these combo boxes. I.e. Filler for a product ID to show all purchase orders numbers and due dates relating to that product ID or filter for a manufacturer ID and due date to show all Product IDs and purchase orders relating to that a manufacturer and date.

Ideally this would be achieved by pressing a command button.

The query, table and combo boxes are all built and work fine but I am unable to get the filter to work, I am using Access 97 and am not very familiar with visual basic. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Filtering With 2 Combo Boxes And Then Populating Text/memo Fields
I have two questions.
I have a form with 2 combo boxes. The first pulls from a simple list. Once you make a choice, the second combo box is then filtered by the first. This works correct, except that once a choice is made in the first, the filter is locked. If you change the first combo box's value a second time it does not effect the second box. The query that I am using for the second combo box has two columns that pull the first 50 characters of a pair of memo fields. Quote: SELECT MSSS.SS_ID, Left([Application_Name],50) AS Expr1, Left([Description],50) AS Expr2, MSSS.Site_Code
FROM MSSS
WHERE (((MSSS.Site_Code)=[Forms]![Edit or Delete Requests]![Combo6])); These fields are then used to populate 2 text fields using an event procedure. Quote: Private Sub Combo10_AfterUpdate()
' Display Partial Application Name and Description based on choice
Me!txtApplication_Name = Me!Combo10.Column(1)
Me!txtDescription = Me!Combo10.Column(2)
End Sub This is working fine, but it starts the next problem.

I need to change the form to include the entire memo field into a text box. I was using the columns of the second combo box to fill them in. Since the combo box is limited to only 50 characters, i could only grab part of it. I am guessing there is a much better way to accomplish what I need, but I am too inexperienced with forms and vb to come up with it. Below are the fields I need from table MSSS
Business_Name
Application_Name
Description
Acronym
Level_1_Support
Level_2_Support
Escalation_process
Troubleshooting
Priority
Links
Modified
Disabled

Thanks in advance to any help!

Please Help. Question About Filtering On Reports With Combo Boxes, Many Linked Tables
Hello,

I hope someone can help me.

I am working on a Marketing Database to centralise information about our customers so that field sales can search customers that would fit a similar sales situation, by vertical market, by product sold, by competitive products etc.

I have created many tables and linked them together:
The main table is Customer Accounts (tblAccounts) and contains information such as:
AcntID (AutoNumber)
AcntName (text, Primary Key)
NAMID (number), relates to Account Manager table (tblNAMs)
SalesRegionID (number), relates to Sales region table (tblRegion)
PartnerID (number) relates to Partner table (tblPartners)
AcntCustomerSince (number)

tblNAMs contains:
NAMID (AutoNumber)
NAMName (Text, Primary Key)

tblPartners contains:
PartnerID (AutoNumber)
PartnerName (text, Primary Key)

tblRegion contains:
RegionID (AutoNumber)
RegionName (text, Primary Key)

Those last 3 table relate to the tblAcnt by intermediate relationships

I have also the following tables:

tblVendor contains:
VendorID (AutoNumber)
VendorName (Text)

tblProducts contains:
ProductID (autoNumber)
ProductName (text)
VendorID (Number)

tblToolsBfr contains:
ToolsBfrID (AutoNumber)
AcntID (Number, Primary Key)
VendorID (Number, Primary Key)
ProductID (Number, Primary Key)

tblToolsSold contains:
ToolsSoldID (AutoNumber)
AcntID (Number, Primary Key)
VendorID (Number, Primary Key)

tblToolsAftr contains:
ToolsAftrID (AutoNumber)
AcntID (Number, Primary Key)
VendorID (Number, Primary Key)

tblVendors and tblProducts are linked to tblToolsSold, tblToolsBfr, tblToolsAftr. Those last 3 tables are linked to the tblAcnt via the AcntID link

I have created a report that can show all this information on one page, per account.

I have also created a filter using combo boxes to allow me to drill down to Sales Region and/or Account Manager and/or Partner.

I am struggling with the rest of the filter as I would like to also filter what can be found in the tblToolsBfr, tblToolsSold and tblToolsAftr but because Vendors and Products are located in two different tables, I do not know what I should put in Row Source or as an event procedure or query.

Please can you help me, perhaps there is an example I could use?

I really hope someone can help as I am completely stuck on this for the past 3 days.

Need Help On Filtering Records Using Combo Or List Box
Hi, I need help on my search command. I am hoping to be able to use a combo box or a list box coming from a table as my criteria to use to filter records from a form and present it a subform/subreport upon clicking the command button. Ideally I should have a form wherein I will have a either a combo box or list box for my criteria, a subform/subreport, and a command button. When I select a particular item on the combo box or list box and I click the command button, the subform/subreport would show me records matching only the particular criteria I selected.

I tried using several approach but it's not working, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Please help me, I am just learning how to do this all by myself.

First Approach:
I tried using a list box to list all the countries I have available from the country table and a command button so when I select a country from the list box and click on the command button I will be able to show on a datasheet view only records matching the country criteria.
This is the code I used:
__________________________________________________ _______________
Private Sub Preview_Click()

DoCmd.OpenForm "qrysumcountry subform", , "Country", "Country = [List4]"

End Sub
__________________________________________________ _______________
But everytime I click on the command button Preview, I am always asked to enter parmeter value then when I type the country that's when it shows the record in forms format matching the criteria country but when I dont type anything and click ok, it just shows a blank form and indicates it's filtered but no record is showing. But I click cancel, it shows a Run-time error '2501'. why does it still have to make me type the parameter if I have selected it on the list box already?

Second Approach:
On the form: I used a combo box, a subform/subreport and a command button. On the combo box I have to show different countries available on my country table. on the subform/subreport I have used my a form created from a query. I want to select from the combo box a particular country and used it as my criteria to filter the records I have on my subform when I click on the search command button. I tried following the sample given by gromit but it doesn't want to work on my database.

This is the code I followed:
__________________________________________________ _______________
Private Sub btnClear_Click()
Dim intIndex As Integer
Me.cmbCountry = 0

End Sub

Private Sub btnsearch_Click()
Me.frmqrybyCountry1.Form.RecordSource = "SELECT * FROM qrybycountry" & BuildFilter

Me.frmqrybyCountry1.Requery

End Sub

Private Function BuildFilter() As Variant
Dim varWhere As Variant

varWhere = Null ' Main filter


'Check if there is a filter to return...
If IsNull(varWhere) Then
varWhere = ""
Else
varWhere = "WHERE " & varWhere

' strip off last "AND" in the filter
If Right(varWhere, 5) = " AND " Then
varWhere = Left(varWhere, Len(varWhere) - 5)
End If
End If

BuildFilter = varWhere

End Function
__________________________________________________ _______________
After selecting on the combo box and click on the command button it just shows all record. It doesn't seem like it is reading what I selected from the combo box as my criteria to filter the records. What could be I be doing wrong? Honestly, I dont understand what is happening to the code here especially the BuildFilter function.

Please help me, I would really want to figure this problem out. Thank you so much.

Selecting Records In A Subform Based On Several Combo Boxes
Here is an example of what I am trying to do:

I have a main form which has 4 combo boxes all based on tblPeople.
Combo0 is skill
Combo1 is discipline
Combo2 is crart
Comb03 is active

The sub form is a datatable list of the tblpeople.

How do I apply the filter to the datatable. I am assuming I need to build a sql statement somewhere like SELECT from tlpeople WHERE me!combo0 = [tblpeople].[skill] and me!Combo1=[tblpeople].[discipline] etc

Is there a sample database? or can somebody tell me how to go about this.

Thanks

REFRESH Combo Boxes For Records On Continous Form
Background:
I have a continous form linked to a table and I have 3 combo boxes on the
form (linked to fields on the table). The combo boxes are called JOB TITLE,
SCHEDULE and SHIFT. The source for the combo boxes are queries named
respectively as LKUPJOB, LKUPSCHEDULE and LKUPSHIFT. For the three combo boxes listed abpve, the bound column is the first field of the underlying query and the column width of the first field is set to 0" (so that the second field of the query is displayed).

The way things should work is that for each record on the form, the
LKUPSCHEDULE and LKUPSHIFT queries (queries for the SCHEDULE and SHIFT combo boxes), the queries are filtered based on the bound field of the JOB TITLE combo box. The name of the bound field for the JOB TITLE combo is called Labor_Rate_ID.


Problem:
Unfortunately, It seems like the value of the labor-rate_ID in the first
record (i.e. first job title combo box) determines the query list used by the
SCHEDULE and SHIFT comboboxes for all the other records on the form. That is, even though the form has lots of records displayed, the combo boxes for each record don't have a complete list to work with.

Hence, the SCHEDULE and SHIFT combo boxes for some records are showing a blank (since available otions in the combo query list don't match the value
in the table for that record.

Can anybody tell me how to get a continous form to refress the list for each
record on the form.

I also don't know whether the Requery command for a macro could work and how to use it. I think though, that this problem can't be solved by a macro.

Basically, the question is around what kind of code will let you manipulate the properties of individual controls of a form at the Record level.

Multiple Combo Boxes In Form To Choose Groups Of Records
Hello,
I am wondering if it is possible to have several combo "boxes" in one form. The form is based on one table. In the table there are several fields which use a look-up (combo) drop down box to choose from: Type, Description, Manufacturer and Location.

In the form I want a combo box for Type, to bring up specific records in a subform, then I want a combo box for Description to bring up another set of records (within that Type of equipment) and a third combo box for Location to bring up all equipment within that location.

When I have tried to set this up - it changes some of the data in the in the subform - which changes it in the underlying table. If it set the form to open in New Record, then nothing shows up in the drop down box. Is there some If, THen code I could use to make it look first in the Type, then in the Description field, then close those out and look for the set of records that match in the location field?

Does that make sense?

I know how to manipulate in MSAccess templates, etc., but I don't know much about the underlying codes.

Thanks for any help!!!

Using Multiple Combo Boxes To Retrieve (not Edit) Records From A Table
I'm creating a form that has combo boxes pertaining to each of the following fields from table "Documents": DocumentID (primary key), DocumentTitle, DocumentAuthor, and DocumentYear. No combo box is used with any priority over the others. The working form will allow a user to retrieve the full document record (data for all fields) by using any combo box they want, as well as any combination of combo boxes. This means that if a selection is made in one field's combo box, the drop-down lists in the other boxes need to update based on that preliminary selection. The filtered results for each field, based on any and all combo box selections, are always shown in a single datasheet on the form.

The kicker is that when a user starts filtering records by making selections from the drop down list in a combo box, but then decides to TYPE in another field's combo box, I want the combo box they typed in to do two things: 1) filter the records for that field based on what they typed, if any records meet that criteria (e.g. they typed "B" so only records beginning with B are shown), and 2) if no records match the typed criteria, the search starts all over (at the top of the cascade), filtering all library records based only on what they typed in the most recent combo box.

Does that make sense? Any tips welcomed.

I don't know how to cascade combo boxes in this way.

Unbound Cascading Combo Boxes For Editting Previous Records
I have 4 combos on an ordering form (3 unbound and the 4th combo is bound to an ID field of the "orders" table). This system of filtering to select the proper criteria of a "product" works great (each unbound box filling a successive box with filtered fields). However, the problem seems to be using this process when editting a record after it has been saved and the form closed.

Since the 3 unbound combos don't have a control source, they are empty when the form is re-opened to edit data. If I change the control sources to bound, the data in the "products" table fields are open to change, which is not a good thing.

I would like to be able to use the combo filtering procedure for both "data entry" (which works fine) and when the user would like to go back, at a later date and change something.

Anyone familiar with this issue?

Combo Boxes & "New" Records/Items
In the past I have used a combo box (in a form), based on a table, to update a record in another table. However, this method only allows the user to select an existing item in the combo box's list of items to select.

I would like for the user to be able to have a combo box that provides a list ot items to select from but also has the ability to allow the user to type in a new item. I know that FileMaker Pro has the ability to do this, but I hate FileMaker Pro. Does anyone know how to do this in Access?

Combo Boxes / Text Boxes
Hi guys, I have a related databes with about 20 tables.

My main table stores the data linking with most of the other tables. This main table stores football match records with player line ups. Initially I had a problem linking the 11 player fields in the main table to the player table, Icould only do it with 1, so someone at work suggested to link it using the lookup function. This worked brilliantly. However, now I am designing a GUI with forms but the forms have combo boxes where the lookup function was used and when i change these to text boxes, the players names are replaced with their ID numbers.

Is there any way of creating the form without the unsightly combo boxes, as they won't be needed, the GUI will be read-only. I look forward to your help!!

Combo Boxes And Text Boxes
I have a table that has client names and addresses. I have designed a form to be able to invoice these clients and everything is fine however what I'd like to do is have the address of the client appear automatically.

I have set the client names in a combo box and would like their address to appear in either a text box or sunken label automatically from the table. Is this possible and how do I do it.

List Boxes And Combo Boxes
Hi everyone,
I have been making progress with customizing a
MS Access program, but one major problem is that
I have been trying to make a List Box or Combo Box
that I can use to enter data in the TABLE, but I
find that I get a pull-down list that has the list of
values from only the parameter that is primary key.
More specifically, the program is set up as follows:
I have two tables in this program: One that is called
"invoices" and one that is called "items". In both of
these tables, there is one common parameter, which
is "Item Number". Item number is the primary key,
and I used the "relationships" function to tie this
parameter to itself between the two tables.
I was successful in setting up a list-box for the
"Item Number", but when I try to set up a list-box
for another parameter that is supposed to display
a person's initials, the pull-down list displays the list
of item numbers instead of the list of people's initials.
In fact, I don't know if there is an extra step I need to
take so that the database stores a list of people's initials.
Instead, I just fill in the initials in the field for each
record for which the "Item Number" is the primary key.
How can I get the list-box to pull down a selection of
different people's initials, or in other words how can I get
all the people's initials to be stored so that the list of
initials can be looked up. Just so you know, I have tried
different choices of entries in the "Lookup" tab in the
Design mode of Tables, including Display Control,
Row Source Type, Row Source, and Bound Column,
but the outcome is that the only parameter that I
get get in the pull-down list is the primary key, which
is Item Number.
I appreciate any help you can offer in explaining how
to correct this.
On a separate note, one of the parameters is "Date", and
on the reports, I'm trying to figure out how to filter a
specific date range so that I can limit each report to a
specific month. Please advise me on this procedure as well.
Thanks.

Filtering On Combo Text
Aaaargh! It's a couple of years since I got my hands dirty in Access and I seem to have forgotten more than I thought! :(
I have a simple database which includes tables STOPS (stopID, stop name, routeID, Cost band), JOURNEY(CustID, routeID, stopID), and ROUTES (routeID, Route name, Bus co).
I have a main form with the customer number on linking to a sub-form on which the user will select the route from a combo box and then the stop from a combo box. All works fine but I want to filter the stop combo box to show only stops on the route already chosen.
I've done similar before but I have tried all sorts and failed to get anything to work. Any help appreciated.

Filtering Employee Name From Combo Box.
Hi all,

My database is like 1 Training course with many of the employee. My Training course are using the reference no. as the ID of my training.

Now I have a form that have a reference no. as my first combo box and all the employee name are in my second combo box to let the user select and add employee to the training.

So now what i need to do is how to filter out the employee that had already been added to the specify training? For example now user want to select a training 'A' from combo box with only 10 employees (out of 50) are involve in the training.

And now when user select a employee and click save then the employee name will be disappear from the combo box when the second time user want to select another name. So do someone know how to do the filtering of the existing employee in the training?

Thanks alot@@!!

Complex Combo Box Filtering
Ok, so I invoke your help once again.

Here's the situation: I have a list of Crew Leaders. Each crew leader has the option of being the leader of up to three different types of crews, which is determined by checkboxes. In a separate form, I would like to do the following:

The first combo box contains a list of the three types of crews. Once an option is selected, I would like only the Crew Leaders' names corresponding to that selection to show up in a second combo box. However, they are not ONLY part of this selection, necessarily. They may also be a part of a different selection, as they may be the leaders of one, two, or all three types of crews. The third combo box I think I can figure out (the first box filters different services that the crew can provide, but it is irrespective of the name of the Crew Leader, so the services are crew TYPE specific, not CREW specific).

I've done it where the first box filters the second box, but only when the selection in the first determines an exclusive set in the second. What I'm trying to do is have the first box create a non-exclusive set in the second box.

Ex: Crew Type: A
Crew Leader (Selection pool): Joe, Bob, Jim, Jerry, Phil, Mark

Crew Type: B
Crew Leader (Selection pool): John, Bob, Jim, Mike, Barry, Dan, Mark

Crew Type: C
Crew Leader (Selection pool): Rob, Jack, Jim, Joe, John, Mark

Anyone have any ideas? So far you guys have been amazing helps.

Thanks in advance!

Combo Box Subform Filtering Problem
Hi all

I have been using some code from this site to filter my forms and subforms via a selection of combo boxes. However, when I try to filter by either date or callid, I get runtime error 2001 and the debugger drops in at the first forms!filter line. This seems to work perfectly well for the other 3 combos that I use. Is it to do with the type of fields I am trying to filter with or am I missing something integral to the code? Each combo is named Filter1, Filter2, etc and the name of the field to filter by is placed in the tag line for the corresponding combo box.

Private Sub Command13_Click()

Dim strSQL As String, intCounter As Integer
' Build SQL String.
For intCounter = 1 To 5
If Me("Filter" & intCounter) <> "" Then
strSQL = strSQL & "[" & Me("Filter" & intCounter).Tag & "] " _
& " = " & Chr(34) & Me("Filter" & intCounter) & Chr(34) & _
" And "
End If
Next

If strSQL <> "" Then
' Strip Last " And ".
strSQL = Left(strSQL, (Len(strSQL) - 5))
' Set the Filter property.
forms!frmoutershell.frminnershell.Form.frminnerinn ershell.Form.Filter = strSQL
forms!frmoutershell.frminnershell.Form.frminnerinn ershell.Form.FilterOn = True
End If
forms!frmoutershell.frminnershell.Form.lblfilter.C aption = strSQL
End Sub

Any help would be appreciated as I am getting quite frustrated with it only working on certain parts of the form.

Filtering On A Combo Box Based Off A Autopopulate Field
Hi, i've searched the forums but couldn't find an issue/resolution that fit my problem. I tried to put as much info as needed but please let me know if more info is needed.

I've set up one of my forms that require a signature with a combo box "CurrentUserName" to capture an electronic signature from a jpeg stored on the local server.

The CurrentUserNamecombo box has a one-to-many relationship between another table named "Electronic Signature" that holds the user's network ID and the Path on the server where the signature file is stored. The primary key in the second table is also named "CurrentUserName". This works perfectly, i select a username from the drop down list on the form and the picture atumomatically populates an unbound image field with the image.

The issue is, i only want the current user to be able to select their own username from the combo box on the form and hide the other usernames so i need the CurrentuserName combo box to be filtered on the form.

So what i've done is create another field named "CaptureUser" that will automatically capture the current user's network user ID using the =CurrentUser () as the defualt value of that field once the form is opened. What i need to do now is connect the two fields so for instance, if current username "jblow" is in the CaptureUser field, the CurrentUserName combo box will check the CaptureUser field and filter the choices so his name will only appear in the CurrentUserName combo box.

Hope that made sense, any help is greatly appreciated!

Filtering Records To Then Add A New One
Hi

I wonder if anyone can help. I attach a table that is a material list (27000 records). When I add a new material I want to be able to see the last part code I created for a particular supplier.

For example C001, C002 and C003 are for a supplier company called Chapters so I would scroll through the combo box search list in the form for the last one and create a new record called C004. The problem is that E00001, E00002 for a company called Edwards supplies 20,000 items so it's a long way to scroll through to create a new part code called E20001. How can I show in the form what the last part code is for each Supplier?

I attach the form and table as I'm not very good at explaining this, although I have had to delete approx 20000 records as the database was too big to be posted. Any advice/help would be greatly appreciated, many thanks

Nick_________04/04/2007_____B
James_______05/04/2008______A

I included the db file which only perform LastOfDate and unique name, however since John has product A and B, it won't get rid of B.

SELECT DISTINCT query1.Name, Last(query1.Date) AS LastOfDate, query1.Product
FROM query1
GROUP BY query1.Name, query1.Product;

I just want one Name, LastOfDate and one product, regardless of A or B.

Thanks,
Isabel
