Command Button To Produce Form Based On Drop Down Choice?
Mar 8, 2006
Per the instructions detailed here...
http://www.fontstuff.com/access/acctut08.htm
...I created a parameter query in the form of a drop down box that, once an
option is selected, should display a form with a number of fields pre-filled
from a record chosen by the drop-down selection.
The drop down has a command button with the following code in the Onclick
event:
Private Sub cmdCreateReport_Click()
DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryUIRFollowUp", acViewNormal, acEdit
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmOpenUIRLookUp"
As it now stands when I click the button I get the form but none of the
selected data is filled in. The fields are blank.
What code to I need to add to the above to make the form hold the data
selected from the drop down?
Thanks,
David

Form 1: I have a combo box on my main menu(MenuMainF) called cboCompanyType with typical values 1,2,3,4,5,etc......
Form 2: I have a command button on my administration menu(MenuAdminF) called cmdDevelopment
My goal is to have the cmdDevelopment button of Form 2 be visible if cboCompanyType on Form 1 is equal to 1,2,3, or 4, but if it is any other value, then cmdDevelopment should be not visible.

I'm currently use the statement below in a query.
Like [Please Enter the Cluster you wish to view] & "*"
This prompts you to enter in the information.
Is there a statement, that will prompt to select from drop down choices when quering?
For example, I have a database that tracks test scores. I want to be prompted when I run the query to select from a drop down 'Pass' or 'Fail'
Can anyone help me?

My aim is to produce a report - using a drop down list (of customers from customer table) so that users can look at customer history.
I have created a form with a drop down list of customers - from customers table. I have used this to filter the results for a query on the orders table (gives me a history of that customer). All this works perfectly. I get all the transactions for that customer.
My question - is there a way I can create the same result but in a report format instead of the datasheet format. I.e the user will be given the data in report format when they select the customer from the drop down list.

Hello all:
Right now, I have a contact database with email addresses, and would like to know if anyone has any suggestions on how to implement a command button that when I click on it, it will do the action as clicking on a link that says
mailto:anyone@anyone.com
If I type the mailto: before the email address, and click on it, it will open the email message window, but I am looking for a way to have the user click on a button and then it opens the email message window.
My field for the email is fldEmail
any suggestions?

I have a dashboard-style form that has a list box with tasks connected to a query with line items of those tasks.
I have another query that will only show the line item selected from the list box. This means the query will only have one line item.
I want to have a command button below the list box that, when clicked, will modify the solo item in the second query to change a yes/no field from no to yes.
How can I accomplish this? Also, how can I make a button that deletes the selected line item?

Hi all,
I have a main form containing client details (tbl_Client) and a sub form containing notes (tbl_notes). tbl_Notes contains a foreign key field (Client_ID) which is obviously the primary key in tbl_Client.
The client is chosen on the main form using a combo box where the user selects the clients name. the id is not visable to the user. How can i get it so that the id (Client_ID) of the selected user is inserted into the Client_ID field of tbl_notes.
Thanks

Hi,
I would like to run a simple select query, where the CRITERIA is based on the user choice.
I have a form with a combo box, with a few choices, and a button that will trigger a macro with one query for now. I can store the choice in to a variable e.g. "town", using Microsoft VB code.
How can I transfer the variable to the CRITERIA field in the query, so whenever I chose a specific "town", my query will select the records for that specific town.
I want to use one query, and I don't want to have to "hard type the criteria in to the cells' query", but I would like to use a variable that can change and will be read it from the user choice through combo box.
If I am not clear enough, please let me know.
Thank you!

Hi
I have been searching this forum for 3 hours for a solution, some come close others are pure gobble de gook to me.
I have on a form 1 combobox where a name is chosen, from that choice I would like the address, suburb, state etc automatically placed intheir relevant fields.
I have tried =DLookUp("[PropertyAddress]","tblProperty","[Property]") in the address textbox which will only bring up the first recod's address from the table, if I change the name in the combobox the address doesn't change.
What am I doing wrong, I have designing databases in Access for a total of 7 days now and have been going fairly well with some tips and code snippets from this forum but this has got me stumped.
Cheers

I am trying to show an image on a form based on a user choice from a drop down box. For example, the user needs to choose a priority for a task. If the user chooses "Immediate" I want an image of an exclamation point to show up to draw attention that this is important.

Hi,
I created a form that lets the user choose specific criteria, through a combo box, to run a report that houses several subreports. Each combo box is referencing 4 queries needed to run the report.
=[Acctmgr_renewed_detail]![RenewalMonth] And [Acctmgr_begbal_2005]![RenewalMonth] And [Acctmgr_cancelled_sum]![RenewalMonth] And [Acctmgr_renewed_sum]![RenewalMonth]
The form also includes a command button to preview the report. However, when I click the command button, the prompts for parameter values for the report popup again, when it should just print the report. Below is the code attached to my command button:
Private Sub Command2_Click()
Me.Visible = False
DoCmd.OpenReport "Acctmgr_monthly_activity", acViewPreview
DoCmd.Close acForm, "valarie"
End Sub
Is there something I need to add to my code? If so, what? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

I want to create a form where by the user can select the fields he requires and the table is created.
Example: I have a table of subjects like maths, english, french, chemistry etc,
The user can choose what subjects are available in that particular school and therefore a table is created based on the chosen subjects.
Is there any way it can be done even with vba?

I have tab control form with (5) tabs. For this discussion - Tabs 1 through 5. For a blank (new) form sheet tabs 4 & 5 need to be hidden. Based on what is selected via the drop down box (on tab 1) then tabs 4 & 5 may remain hidden or needed to be un-hidden. Example: [DropDown1]
Selection 1: stay hidden
Selection 2: unhide
Selection 3: unhide
Selection 4: stay hidden
Selection 5: unhide
Selection 6: stay hidden
Selection 7: unhide
Selection 8: stay hidden
Selection 9: stay hidden
I think one I figure this out then I can use the 'OnCurrent' event to check the drop down selection as a user selects the a record or scrolls through records.

In one of my forms (which is a datasheet) I want to create a hyperlink or a command button (in each row), which enables the user to jump to another form (determined by the cell contents).
I have achieved that by replacing my datasheet with a continuous form and adding a command button. But I would much rather keep my datasheet format.
I tried to put a command button into the datasheet, but it won't display it.
Is it possible to achieve my objective here ? I am not having much joy with HELP.

I have a basic question.
I am trying to put a button on a form I have created so that I can use Filter by Form feature on it. I used the toolbox commnad button wizard and chose the Form Operations -> Apply Form Filter option for the button.
Unfortunately, this button does not work for this choice. In the Form view, if I click on this button nothing happens. Other choices in the wizard such as Edit Form Filter etc works.
Does anyone know what could be the problem? Is this an Access bug (i am using Access 2003).
If it is a bug, can anyone suggest what little modifications one might have to do to the VBA code underlying OnClick event for the button to make this command button work?
thanks a lot for the help

In a form of my "cities-of-the-world" database I have amongst others the fields: "Latitude" & "Longitude"
Now I'm looking for the command button code that runs a querry to find all neighbouring places i.e. [Latitude] would be 'Between (Latitude + 0.75) and (Latitude - 0.75)' ... longitude likewise.
In other words: When the form displays the record for Berlin, on clicking the command button there should appear a list containing the cities: Bernau, Oranienburg, Potsdam ...

Hi, I'm an Access newbie. I've designed a fairly simple database to replace an old spreadsheet that was becoming unwieldy -- it was never really used so much for calculation as for data storage, so Access seems more appropriate anyway.
One of the functions I used in Excel was the autofilter, which I found very useful for zeroing in on specific portions of the data. I was wondering how I would do the same thing in Access, and then I discovered the "Filter by Form", which works just fine -- even better actually, since it has the whole and/or functionality.
I was wondering though if it would be possible to invoke "Filter by Form" using a command button. That would make it even easier, especially for some of my users who would almost certainly not know about "Filter by Form" otherwise.

I have a form with a drop down list that is coming from a query (City Query)
I have a command button to open a form for data entry to the City table -
When I open the form for city add a record - close the form.
I then go to the drop down list (city query) to select the record that was just added to the city table and the record is not in the query.
What do I need to do for the newly added record to show in the query drop down?

There is a continuous form with a check box in each row and a command button(cmdDetails) in the form footer section. You select a record and press cmdDetails and another form opens.
Rather than in the footer, I would like to have the command button placed in the details section itself, in each row, against each record, so that the check box can be eliminated. Pressing any button will open the corresponding form. how I can "associate" each record with the button next to it.
