Showing Only Approved Comments

Aug 3, 2006

On our site we have option where users can add coments to articles. Lately some people have been misbehaving. I wish to add a field in .mdb file and call it "approved". If the field contains "1" then it's ok to show the message, if the field has nothing in it comment will not be shown. How do I implement this into below code. I wish to leave posting as is, just not showing not yet approved comments.

Thank you in advance. (comments are shown in <td>" & rs("Comment") & "</td> part)

Here is the code:

' show past comments
If Not rs.EOF Then

s = s & " <tr bgcolor=""" & TitleBGColor & """>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " <td colspan=""3"">&nbsp;Comments:</td>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " </tr>" & vbCrLf

While not rs.EOF
s = s & " <tr class=""" & TitleClass & """>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " <td>&nbsp;</td>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " <td>From:</td>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " <td>" & rs("Name") & " (" & rs("DateAdded") & ")</td>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " </tr>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " <tr>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " <tr class=""" & TitleClass & """>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " <td>&nbsp;</td>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " <td>Comment:</td>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " <td>" & rs("Comment") & "</td>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " </tr>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " <tr>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " <td>&nbsp;</td>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " <td>&nbsp;</td>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " <td>&nbsp;</td>" & vbCrLf
s = s & " </tr>" & vbCrLf
rs.MoveNext
Wend
End If

Enabling Comments When A Box Is Ticked

Aug 22, 2006

Hey,

In the form I am creating, I have checkboxes. Some of these checkboxes, when ticked, need additional comments entered into a comments box.

Only when the box is ticked, the comments box should appear/become enabled.

Any pointers in the general direction I should help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Comments - Memo
Contact - Text

It's quite a pain, copying and pasting from record to record.

Help Re Creating A Space For Comments On A Form PLEASE!!

Feb 6, 2006

Help please!!!!

Firstly, I would apologise as I am not overly familiar with the correct terminology!

I need to create a "space" on my form whereby I can add comments etc which will exceed 255 characters: these comments will be specific to each record. I have tried having an "unbound" text box in design view but this makes the comments the same on each record.

I know this is probably "as clear as mud" but if anyone can help I would be really grateful.

Thanks,

Emma

Forms :: Show History Of Comments?

Sep 7, 2014

I am developing a new tool which needs to show the history of updates to the users, i.e.:

An observation is entered into a field on the MAIN FORM by user 1.

User 2 reviews the observation on the MAIN FORM and adds a separate comment in another field on the same form.

When the record is saved, the updates are NOT written to the Main Form Table but to the UPDATES TABLE for audit purposes.

I am also using current date/ time as a timestamp, which is protected and needs to be carried over to the UPDATES TABLE Every time a new comment is added in the MAIN FORM, I need it to be written to the UPDATES TABLE as a new record.

What I need to be able to show is:

Each comment added, as a list of readable records, in a table within the main form AND Each time the main form is refreshed/ opened the separate comment field is blank to enable each new update to be applied.

Growing Text Box For Comments To Fit Perfectly

Nov 21, 2014

I'm trying to make a text box for comments that grows as the user types to fit the comment perfectly.

The comments can be anywhere from 2 words to a paragraph long.

Is this even possible? If it is, is the best place to do it on a form?

I've made a text box and tried the "Can Grow" property, but that doesn't increase the size as you type.

I'm wondering maybe if there's a VBA "After Update" Code that will readjust the textbox to fit the code?

Force Update Into Unbounded Comments Field

Oct 24, 2005

Hopefully there's someone who can help me with this!!! I've had several unsuccesfull attempts and don't know what else to try...

We're trying to force users to make entries in a field called txtComments in the frmQuestionnaire form if they provide negative responses and to stay on that record until the comments are changed. Inside the form is an option group (fraResponses) which contains options (OptA, OptB..etc.) valued from 1 through 7, based on a likert 7 scale. We're only using a likert 6 scale, so the respondents will only see 2-7 on the form. If they options B-D (valued 2-4), they are considered negative, so we want to make sure they enter a comment.

I tried to enter the italicized code under the form on BeforeUpdate, AfterUpdate, CmdUp (click to next question) and CmdDown (click to previous question), with frmQuestionnaire but nothing happens:

There is a module called clsUser which contains the following and where I tried to insert the code:

Set myForm = Forms!frmQuestionnaire
' ================================================== ==
' First, set the value of the variables
' ================================================== ==
lngQuestion = arrQ(lngArray, 0)
lngSession = GetCustomInfo("TestSession")
lngUser = UserID
lngBillet = BilletID

strComment = Nz(myForm.txtComment, "")

strComment = "None"

'If user selects negative responses
If Form_frmQuestionnaire.fraResponses.OptionValue = 2 Or 3 Or 4 And strComment = "None" Then
MsgBox "Please explain the problems you encountered with the system which " & _
"caused you to select an unfavorable response."
Form_frmQuestionnaire.txtComment.SetFocus

End If

lngResponse = myForm.fraResponses


When I place the code there, the dialog box appears for all values and goes to the next record. This is what appears for the CmdUp (click to next question):

If cUser.blnDirty = False And Me.fraResponses = 153 (this is default value for the entire option group) And cUser.blnNew = True Then
cUser.blnDirty = True
End If

cUser.CaptureAnswer
If cUser.lngArray < cUser.UBound_ArrQ() Then
cUser.lngArray = cUser.lngArray + 1
Else
cUser.lngArray = cUser.UBound_ArrQ()
End If
cUser.FillQuestions
cUser.blnDirty = False

I've tried to enter the line of code with the form and the module, but no luck.

I also want it to remain on the same record until the field is changed. The form is unbound and has the following:

Public Sub FillQuestions()


'************************************************* ****
' Purpose: Scroll through the questions
'
' Assumptions: N/A
'
' Effects: N/A
'
' Inputs:
' None
'
' Returns:
' None
'************************************************* ****

Dim lngRG As Long

Set myForm = Forms!frmQuestionnaire
myForm.txtQuestion = arrQ(lngArray, 1)
lngRG = arrQ(lngArray, 2)
myForm.prgProgress.Value = lngArray + 1
myForm.lblProgText.Caption = "Question " & (lngArray + 1) & " of " & lngQuestions
myForm.lblTS.Caption = "Test Session: " & arrQ(lngArray, 3)
myForm.lblQID.Caption = "Question ID: " & arrQ(lngArray, 0)

GetResponseSet lngRG
FillAnswers
If lngArray = 0 Then
myForm.txtComment.SetFocus
myForm.cmdDown.Enabled = False
Else
myForm.cmdDown.Enabled = True
End If

If lngArray >= UBound(arrQ) Then
myForm.txtComment.SetFocus
myForm.cmdUp.Enabled = False
Else
myForm.cmdUp.Enabled = True
End If
End Sub

Public Sub FillAnswers()
'************************************************* ****
' Purpose: Fill out the user's previous responses
'
' Assumptions: N/A
'
' Effects: N/A
'
' Inputs:
' None
'
' Returns:
' None
'************************************************* ****

Dim strSQL As String
Dim recAnswer As New ADODB.Recordset

Set myForm = Forms!frmQuestionnaire
strSQL = "SELECT datResponse.reDatQuestionID, datResponse.reDatRespondentID, "
strSQL = strSQL & "datResponse.reDatResponseSetID, datResponse.reComment "
strSQL = strSQL & "FROM datResponse "
strSQL = strSQL & "WHERE datResponse.reDatQuestionID=" & arrQ(lngArray, 0)
strSQL = strSQL & "AND datResponse.reDatRespondentID=" & UserID

recAnswer.Open strSQL, CurrentProject.Connection, adOpenForwardOnly, adLockOptimistic

If Not recAnswer.EOF Then
myForm.fraResponses = recAnswer!reDatResponseSetID
myForm.txtComment = recAnswer!reComment
blnNew = False
Else
If myForm.fraResponses <> 152 Then
myForm.fraResponses = 153
myForm.txtComment = ""
blnNew = True
End If
End If

recAnswer.Close
Set recAnswer = Nothing

End Sub

Thanks in advance for your help!!

General :: Keeping History Of Notes / Comments

Mar 26, 2014

How to extract the comment system from the Contacts Web Database template found in Access 2010? I can upload it if you like.

I would like to use it in a standard desktop database to track notes and comments in my records.

I am able to convert it from web to standard, but it still appears to use data macros or something, and my knowledge on macros is limited.

I just want to keep a history of my notes for each record, with the most recent always listed, and the comment system in the Contacts Web Database template seems perfect for that. I just don't know how to implement it into my desktop database.

General :: Append Comments Field With User Name

Aug 20, 2013

I need to save a user's machine name when they comment on a record.

I have a form that has a comments field, and a separate area that shows the historical entries from comments.

I also have an invisible field populated by "=fOSMachineName()" that shows the users machine name. Getting this running was tough on my 64 bit machine, but it now works!)

I wish to have the machine name included in the comments field every time the "Save Record and Close" button (which runs a macro) is clicked.

Right now, when someone adds comments, it shows a date and time stamp (which I still want to keep) but I want to also capture the machine name at the same time.

Keep Track Of Multiple Notes / Comments In A Record?

Mar 25, 2014

I'm using Access 2013, with a standard database (non web).

I am trying to figured out a method to keep track of notes and comments that are entered into a record. I would like them to be time stamped, and the most recent listed first.

Do I have to use a split form or similar to do that? Is there a intermediate to easy method of accomplishing this task?

If anyone has seen the Contacts Web database template in Access 2010, the 'Add a Comment' section would be ideal to what I'm looking for. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to implement it into my database.

Forms :: Comments In Descending Order In Memo Field

May 5, 2015

Having some trouble with a memo field. For each record, the notes field is present on the Form.... I added an unbound text box (txtMemoAdd) and a command button (Add New Note). When the button is selected, it adds the note to the Read Only Notes Field and adds a timestamp using the following code:

Me.Notes = Me.Notes & vbCrLf & Now () & VbCrLf & Me.txtMemoAdd
Me.txtMemoAdd = ""

The note is added to the bottom, and I was wondering if there was a way to make the new note go to the TOP of the field (Descending Order rather than Ascending).

I know that you can insert comments and notes in VBA code using a singular quote, like the following:

Code:

Is there a similar way to insert comments in the SQL of queries? I found other forum posts that say this isn't possible but those were all for pre-2010 Access. Has this changed at all?
