Continuous Form - Won't Distinguish Between Records...

Feb 12, 2005

I have a table and a form with continuous records (218 items).
In a different table I have the status of these 218 items.
In design view of the form I have added a label at the end of the record.

I want to use the DMax to set the caption of that label to the status of the particular item, but it sets the status of all 218 items to the status of item 1.
How do I get it to distinguish between the records.

I guess somehow the record source for that label must be changed to the status table after form has loaded, and then run through all records and update the label caption.

How?!?

Forms :: Limited Number Of Records In Continuous Form / But Now Can't Add Records

Mar 22, 2013

One shows my form with the Transporters Subform with 3 entries, and 1 entry.The three line items that say "Transporter" are in one subform. I used this code

Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
If Me.RecordsetClone.RecordCount >= 3 Then
Me.AllowAdditions = False
End If
End Sub

to limit the number of records I can add to 3 or less.My issue is that I lost the blank text box that allows you to add another record. So, if I only have one Transporter listed, there's no box to let me add a second or third.I have the following properties for the Transporters Subform set to "Yes":

Data Entry
Allow Additions
Allow Deletions
Allow Edits
Allow Filters

Resorting Records On A Continuous Form

Nov 9, 2006

Hello All,

I have a continuous form that I want to sort/re-sort based on clicking a button in the header.

One button is for sorting the records by Project Name and the other is sorting by Project Tracking Code.

The form is based on an SQL Select statement.
Here is the click event code for the Project Name button:

Private Sub Command86_Click()
Dim ctlFrm As Form

Forms![Project - Maintain All Projects].OrderBy = ProjectNm
Set ctlFrm = Forms![Project - Maintain All Projects]
ctlFrm.Requery
End Sub

But this is not working. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Continuous Form Totaling B/w Records

Oct 27, 2004

I have a continuous subform (frmLabor) that has an unbound box in the footer. This unbound box totals all the numbers in the Total1 field using DSum. However, when I change the record in the main form (frmCustomers), that number still stays there, and when I add records (service hours) to the subform under a new record (customer) in the outer form, those numbers sum. I understand what's wrong, I just don't know how to fix it. How do I get it to calculate ONLY the records (service hours) in the subform per record (customer) in the outer form?

Default Number Of Records In Continuous Form

Nov 29, 2005

Hello, i have a question,

I have Main form, and Subform (which is continuous form). Now when i open main form (or even subform itself) i see continuous form, and two empty rows.Whenever i fill first row and press on second, third row appears, and so on.

Can i set somewhere to show me only 1 empty row on this continuous form, and when i fill it, second row appears, and so on. E.g. is there any options for customizing how many empty rows are displayed and the begining of continuous form?

And how "saving of records" work here, because if i fill one row, it won't save anything....it will save it only when i press on other row (when third row creates)

Thanks for your help

Continuous Form Problem: All The Form Records Are Affected

Aug 17, 2007

I have a continuous form bound to a recordset that has the following fields:

- Ignore: Boolean
- OverTime: Boolean
- AnnualLeave:Boolean
-ExtraValue: Double

The Ignore, OverTime, AnnualLeave fields are bound to a I, O, A checkboxes respectively in this continuous form. The ExtraValue bound to a EV textbox in this form.

What I want is that when the user check O or A checkboxes, the EV textbox is enabled only for this form record NOT all the form records, when the user check I checkbox, the EV textbox is disabled only for this from record, NOT all the form records.

The problem is that whenver the user check, all the form records EV text box is affected by this action.

Is there any way to achieve this?

Printing A Single Records Report From A Continuous Form

Mar 7, 2006

I've been trying to get my head round this one , but i'm just to thick to get it.

I have a continuous form that lists all items at a certain location.
The user selects a record by clicking on the record selector and then clicks on a command button with this code:

stDocName = "DivingInspectionCert"
stLinkCriteria = ("EquipmentID = " & Me!EquipmentID)
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria

The user then enters inspection details in to the "DivingInspectionCert" form which i want to store in a table (DivingCert) which will relate to the item. On completion of this form the user then clicks on a command button with this code:

DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord

If Me.RecordsetClone.RecordCount = 0 Then
MsgBox "There are no items to Print", vbInformation, "EquiTrac"
End
Else
DoCmd.OpenReport "DivingInspectionRpt", , , ("EquipmentID = " & Me!EquipmentID)
DoCmd.Close

When i click on this button, the report doesn't print and i get a message "No current record".
The inspection details are not stored in the table.
I did have the forms RecordSource based on the table "DivingCert" but that didn't work and i have just tried a query but it is still not working.

Would be much appreciated if you can help me.
Thank you

Modules & VBA :: Change Multiple Records On Continuous Form

Mar 5, 2014

I have a form (Form4) which has a a list box (list11) that allows multi select. When I select on the records I need I hit a button that opens a form up with the selected records. This form is a continuous form. I have an unbound combo box (Combo55). Its values come from a specific table. I want to hit a button and change the field "Assigned" on all the records showing to the value that I selected in Combo55.

The problem is it only changes the value of the currently selected record. How Do I get it to change the value of all records that are showing?

I am only testing this idea with default field names. Before I implement the database I have to get a working model and present it. So I am building this and naming at the moment isnt important.

General :: Auto Numbering Records In Continuous Form

Oct 15, 2012

If I want to arrange records sequentially in a report I would do the following:

From the Toolbox (Access 1 - 2003) or the Controls group of the Design ribbon (Access 2007 and later), add a text box for displaying the number.

Select the text box, and in the Properties Window, set these properties:

Control Source =1 Running Sum Over Group...

How can I sequentially arrange records on a continuous form?

Forms :: Way To Highlight Duplicates Across A Number Of Records On A Continuous Form

Jan 1, 2015

Is there any way to highlight duplicates across a number of records on a continuous form (conditional formatting I presume)? My continuous form is filtered on load to show only the records relating to the specified date (specified before opening the form), and there is one field that I would like to highlight if there is a duplicate value in the same field on another record on the form. Is this possible?

Prevent User From Skipping Records In Continuous Form During Data Entry

Nov 21, 2006

I have a main form with several continuous subforms. Each subform consists of several listbox controls. I would like to require the user to select an item from the listbox before being allowed to move to the next record in the subform, and upon reaching the last record in that continuous subform, to require an entry there in order to move to the first record in the next cont. subform.

As an added bonus, it would be nice, though not necessary, to automatically jump the focus from one record to the next after data is entered. But my basic goal is to avoid skipping records.

Caveat: I cannot use the "required" option in the field to which the control is bound because that field has a default value previously entered using an append query. (The default value basically means "not yet entered" and is not one of the options in the listbox. I am using this because this field is a foreign key in the table, thus it must have a value in order to have a record with which to populate the subform.)

My apologies if this has been asked and answered elsewhere, but I've searched and, while I found a few related threads, they don't quite answer my question. Here they are for reference:

Thanks for any help! Also, if you are going to recommend VB code, could you be specific about how and where I should use it? I'm not afraid of code, but I'm definitely new to it...

Forms :: Updating Field On Multiple Records Selected In Continuous Form?

Jun 12, 2013

I have a form listing tasks to which I make personnel assignments with a multi-value list field type. It takes some time to select from 15-25 employees on the list for each task, especially considering that small groups of employees will be assigned to the same selection of tasks.

What I want to do is select multiple records with the mouse, then click a command button opening a form in dialog mode with the selection list. The user then clicks to make his selections and clicks ok, which then updates the multi-select field for the selected records.

Forms :: Continuous Form With Textfields As Records - List Of Years With Totals Of Hours

Jul 1, 2015

I have a continious form with textfields as records. Its about total course hours that are calculated. There is a field in the records that holds and calculates the hourse that one have done and another field that holds the max hours they may follow for one year.

Every record has h different year.

When the amount of hours in the transmission textfield is negative, they can transmit the hours to te next year. Therefore i have to calculate the Max hours per Year + the transmission hours.

So the calculation is not a problem. Though i don't actually know where i can trigger the calculation. I have tried it with a button on the form, but then the user always have to click to see the right amount of hours for the next year. That's not handy. I am looking for a way to automatically calculate the field Max hours per year. Given that the Max hours per year is a bound field, its bound to a table where i stock the Max hours that i have calculated.

I also tried it with the button that's used for inserting new course hours, but then it calculates with the old values instead of the new ones.

How can i trigger the calculation automatically without using a button.

Modules & VBA :: Distinguish If Data Already Exists In A Table

Aug 22, 2013

I currently need a way to check to see if a a field already exists. To be exact I have an access application that imports data from multiple sources and saves the file name of these imports into an import tracker table. The table has four fields, file name, Date Imported, Import Type, and Number of Records. I am writing some code that checks a Boolean given by a form. If the Boolean is true It skips over checking.

If it is false It needs to check my import tracker file names to see if the file was already imported. If it was then it will skip over the file and the algorithm will check the next file given by an array. So I was wondering..How would I go about making it check if the file already exists in the table. I was thinking of turning the File Name Field into a primary key, since there will only ever be one File Name of every type.

Forms :: Continuous Forms - Looping Through Records / Manipulating Fields On Form

May 29, 2015

I have a bound continuous tabular form,However, based on data content in one field of a record, I want a checkbox in the same record enabled, so the user can check it if necessary. I have created a record set using the form as shown below, and I am looping through each record. To show that my code is referring to the field with required data content, I display it as a message box and it works, yet my checkbox does not enable.

I have the code in the form_load event, however, for testing purposes I have it behind a button.If I am seeing this properly, the code behind the button enables the checkbox for ALL records once the criteria in the required field is true, and based on the last record, which has no data content, it disables the checkbox in ALL records. I also have the PK ID for each record hidden in the form. Can I utilize that to target the checkbox of each individual record??

Form Detail
-Form does not allow additions or deletions. Edits allowed
-All fields are disabled and locked
-I only want the check box to unlock if data is found in the "RequiredField" as referred to below. I have also tried if not isNull(requiredfield.value) then -enable checkbox, which yields the same results

Here is my code

Code:

Dim rstMyForm As DAO.Recordset
Set rstMyForm = Forms!MyForm.Form.Recordset
rstMyForm.MoveFirst
Do While Not rstMyForm.EOF
If Not RequiredField.Value = "" Then

[code]...

A Continuous Form And Continuous Subform, Possible?

Aug 9, 2005

What I am trying to do is put a subform within a subform. The trouble is I want both forms to be continuous forms.

when I put the subform within a subform, access comes up with the following message:

************************************************** ********************
A form with a subform object cannot have its DefaultView set to Continuous forms.

You tried to add a subform to a form in design view.
MSAcess will reset the property to Single Form.
************************************************** *********************

which it does my higher level form becomes a form only showing single records at a time whilst the subform is a continuous form.

does anyone know of a way around this?

what about Access2003 does it allow this?

help much appreciated.

Reports :: Select Data For Continuous Records In A Report

Feb 26, 2015

For the report in question all data is taken from one table named "Completions ". The fields I will be using are as follows:

Code:

[Surname]
[Firstname]
[Branch]
[Quarter1_A]
[Quarter1_T]

When the records are added, the Branch is added using a combo box. There can be several rows of data with the same Firstname and Surname but with different Branches.The report layout must look something like this.I have tried using DLookup to select the data based on the data in the Name text box, but this just gets the first result and duplicates it.

Modules & VBA :: Subform In Continuous Records Format - Send Contents Into The Body Of Email

Nov 10, 2014

I have a subform in Continuous Records format (records displayed are determined by controls on the parent). I would like to create a button that prepares an email and copies the contents of that subform in to the body of an email message.

The email. I have a method to create a new email, set To, CC, Subject and even Message Text.

Code:
strTo = txtName
strCC = txtManager
strSubject = "Something"
strMessage = "Hi, please find below list of details from X Y and Z" & vbnewline & vbnewline

That all works. Thats fine

The Records: I have found ways to have them added as an attachment, either the the SendObject and OutputTo method but I would like the list of records to be converted to a text string so I can include it within my strMessage variable, not include it as an attachment.

Code:
strMessage = strMessage & "Subform Records to go here"...

Forms :: Use Buttons On A Form To Change Sort Order On A Continuous Form

Jul 23, 2013

I want to use buttons on a form to change the sort order on a continuous form. In the buttons click event I am using a public function (named Sort_1) to change the sort order. The first element of the event call is the name of a generic query (named Sort_1_Query1) and the query field to sort (LAST_NAME OR FRIST_NAME, depending on the button.)This is the Click Statement.

=Sort_1("Sort_1_Query1","LAST_NAME")

This is the Public Function
Public Function Sort_1(SortName As String, FieldName1 As String)
DoCmd.ApplyFilter SortName, FieldName1 & "between 'A' and 'Z'"
End Function

I think the problem is in the use of quotation marks or trying to pass the query field name to the Do Command or the use of an ampersand.

Forms :: Continuous Form With Command Button On Each Record To Open Another Form

Jul 30, 2014

I have a continuous form in which I put a command button for each record called "detail". I would like to click on the "detail" button and make it open another form containing all (and only) the info on this record.

At first I refused to use an "id" to link both forms, but finally I added the "id" in the table... however still does not work.

continuous form: "04 - GASTOS_BUSQUEDA"
id field on continuous form: "Gastid"

pop-up (details) form: "GASTOS_EDITAR"
id on pop-up (details) form: "editar_id"

This is what I have tried on the "click" properties of the "details" button field (called "btn_editgs"):

1)
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", acNormal, , "[editar_id] = " & Me.Gastid

2)
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , "[editar_id]=" & Me.Gastid

3)
stLinkCriteria = "[editar_id]=" & Me![Gastid]
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , stLinkCriteria

4)
Private Sub btn_editgs_Click()
On Error GoTo btn_editgs_Click_Err
Dim strWhere As String
strWhere = "[editar_id] = " & Me.Gastid
DoCmd.OpenForm "GASTOS_EDITAR", , , strWhere
btn_editgs_Click_Exit:
Exit Sub
btn_editgs_Click_Err:
MsgBox Error$
Resume btn_editgs_Click_Exit
End Sub
