Form Doesn't Always Update When Opened. Is This A Requery Problem?

Apr 11, 2005

Please refer to the attached file. The form of concern is frmAssessmentInput.

Select the appropriate criteria per instructions (in red), including entries on the continuous subform. Then click the "Input data" command button. A 2nd form opens (frmObservations) that contains a textbox labeled DocumentStreamID, and this textbox SHOULD contain the value from the corresponding DocumentStreamID textbox contained in the master form, where you clicked the command button. However, even though the sources are linked properly, the value doesn't pass if you click the command button immediately after adding a new record to the continuous form; it only passes if 1) the master form is closed and reopened first, or 2) if you close the 2nd form, toggle to design view and back to form view for the master form, and then click the "Input data" button again.

What is going on here? Given that the value passes once another procedure is run, do you think this a requery problem? I tried placing a VBA control requery in the 2nd form's On Current and On Load events, but this didn't solve things for me so I took out those event procedures (code could have been wrong though).

Update Form Everytime Database Is Opened

Jan 24, 2006

One of the forms in my database has a calculated text box control. The calculation is conditional, one condition being based on current date. One of the queries display that calculation. If the the form with the calcualted control is not opened before running the query, the calculated control uses the day the form was last opened as the "current date" which is not what I want. I want to do one of two things:

Either: (Preferably): update the form everytime the database is opened, so that the current date is actually the current date and not when the form in question was last opened.

Or: Update the form first before the query in question is run. This is not preferred because, if I use the calculated control in another query or something, I have to have another "update" step.

Need Help With Requery To Update Form

Jan 20, 2008

I have created a split form that shows all records from the main table. On the split form (form1) I have a button that opens a second form (form2) to add records. On form2 I created a button to save the records and that works fine, but form1 does not show the new record after the save button is clicked.

I am attempting to use requery to show the new record but I am not having any luck. Right now, form1 only shows the update if I switch to detail view and then back to form view. Maybe I am not doing something right, I am new to using MS Access and VBA. I have tried using the requery with an onclick on the save button and I also tried using requery on form1 in the ongotfocus event. I am using a macro to do the requery, and I have left the argument blank.

Can someone please point me in the right direction to fix this?

Forms :: Update / Requery Subform Through On Close Event Of Another Form

Aug 2, 2013

I am working with 2 forms and a subform.

frmTaskTracker -subfrmInbox (Datasheet View - based on a query)

frmUpdateInboxItem

subfrmInbox displays a summary of tasks on a task list. The user navigates to frmUpdateInboxItem from frmTaskTracker. After updating a record from frmUpdateInboxItem, it is possible that it the record in question will no longer meet the requirements to have it listed on subfrmInbox.

I have attempted to add code to the on close event of frmUpdateInboxItem to requery the sub form on frmTaskTracker but am not getting the syntax correct.

correct my code? Alternatively is there is a more correct way to do this, I'd be happy to learn it.

Code:
Option Compare Database
Private Sub cmdClose_Click()
Me.[frmTasktracker]![subfrmInbox].Requery
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmUpdateInboxItem"
End Sub

Forms :: Subform Doesn't Update After Values Being Updated By Another Form

Feb 27, 2015

I'm running into an issue with my forms. I have a form that contains a subform, that contains a list of projects. This list is read-only. To update a record, you can double click on it, which opens another form filtered on this record, and which contains the fields in the first form as well as some others.

I have a command button on that last form to "Save and close", which fires up a macro that saves the record and closes the window.

Now, the issue that I'm having is that, when the window closes and I'm once again in front of the first form with the list of projects, the values of the record I changed are not updated and when I click on another record, Access tells me there's a conflict in the values and asks me if I want to keep the changes, discard them or copy to the clipboard.

It seems to consider the old values from the first form as a change, and thus asks me which to keep between these, and the actual (proper) changes I made in the dedicated form.

For the proper changes to be applied, I need to select "Drop changes".

I tried to requery the first form, also undo the changes to it after closing the window, but none of that worked.

I'm actually basing this on one of the templates, which does exactly what I want and which obviously works...

Combo Box Doesn't Update Fields

Feb 27, 2008

I have a Combobox so the enduser can search and select items for the form below it rather than clicking the arrows for Next/Previous.However I have an issue with DLookup queries.My Combobox is called 'F_ComboBox' (I use F_ in my forms to indicate it's a form textfield and not from a table).My first field in the form, called 'F_ProdID', I want it to select the rows ID from the Combobox option selected. So it's simply:=[F_ComboBox]Which works fine, it shows the ID for what I selected... but when I do this to show my ProductName...=DLookup([ProductName], 'Products', [ProdID] = [F_ComboBox])Or the same but using the first textfield:=DLookup([ProductName], 'Products', [ProdID] = [F_ProdID])It loads once but if I select another item out of the Combobox it doesn't change, it just stays on the last result. So the query works, just doesn't refresh when a new item is picked from the ComboBox.Am I doing something wrong?Thanks,Nick.

Update Query Doesn't Select 1 Record

Nov 22, 2006

Upon closing my frmInventory the amount stock of stock is checked against a minimal stock value. If the stock amount is below a set minimal value a subsequent form is opened telling you that stock is low and an email message is generated to notify a manager. I have a checkbox on that form which is set to "True" upon close using an update query. The checkbox is there to give users the option to either send or not send a reminder message that stock is low when a message has already been sent earlier.

The problem is that using that update query ALL records are set to "sent=true" and not just the 1 record I intend.

This is my code in the "on close" event:

DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryUpdateEmailMinimal_True

and here's the SQL:

UPDATE tblInventory SET tblInventory.emailSentMinimal = True;


I assume what is missing is a reference to an inventoryID number. How do I do that?

Queries :: SQL UPDATE That Adds But Doesn't Replace?

Aug 27, 2013

Right now, I'm working with an SQL code of

Code:
"UPDATE Individuals SET [ShareholderOf] = " & Me.CompanyNo & " WHERE [Name] = '" & PerName & "';"

However, doing so will obviously change the "Shareholder of" field into what the user inputs (Me.CompanyNo). What should I use if I want it to ADD the user input rather than REPLACING the old [shareholderof] value?

Form Won't Stay Put When Opened

Nov 8, 2005

I have a Main Form that utilizes tabs to control several other forms by opening, closing and making them visible/invisible. One of the forms needs to be closed when its tab on the Main form is unselected. The problem is that once the form is closed, when it opens up again it opens right infront of my Main form's tab control so I need to move it down an inch to get to the tab control.

I've positioned this form where I want it and saved it numerous times. But once I select the tab, it opens up right ontop of the Main form's tab control again. I have the AutoResize set to No and the Auto Center also set to No.

Any ideas how I can get this form to stay put?

Any help is most appreciated. Thanks.

Formatting A Form Before It Is Opened

Jan 2, 2006

hopefully someone will know what to do...

i have a form that has a bunch of check boxes and labels that are hidden to start with,and become visible when a confirmation button is pressed. Wen i set this up in the design view i.e making their visible status = false, everything runs accordingly - however when the next person comes to update their details the form will not format properly. i think the reason has something to do with the check boxes having different visibilty statuses after the initial confirmation i therefore used code on the form open event

If Check2.Visible = True Then

check.Visible = False
End If

however this tends to fail at the first checkbox, however if i then press run on the VBA screen everything else seems to then run fine and so only the first checkbox is left visible...

can anybody help....

thanks in advance i hope i have made myself clear..

Forms :: Refresh Form That Is Already Opened

Mar 17, 2013

I have forms that show commitments by Client, by Cost Centre, by Provider etc.

If I add new commitments or edit commitments it is done through the Commitments by Client form, as all other forms lead back to this one.

To create a new or edit an existing commitment, it is done through a Commitment Form, which goes into a query (query A)which does all the calculations. My client form has subforms based on Query A, however my other forms (commitments by Cost Centre etc) have subforms which have querys that are based on Query A . I hope that made sense.

My problem is that If I edit a commitment, the client form and subforms refrlect the changes imediately, even though they are open and I can see them changing when I change the commitments. However the other ones don't unless I close them and re-open them.

My navigation within the database is based on once a form has been opened it is set to be invisible untill called on again (i.e. visible = False).

How to requery all the forms without having to close them.

Go To Last Active ID When Form Is Opened Or Refreshed

Sep 14, 2012

I have main form with everything on it using tabs and so on and everything is working fine. What I would like to do is this. Since I am jumping frequently between different records and many actions require main form to be reopened or refreshed and when this happens the form goes to random records, I would like for form to go to last record i was on before it was refreshed or opened.

I was thinking using tempVars to set the id but the problem is that I am not sure what can trigger the TempVars since I am jumping between the records and not making any changes to them.

Modules & VBA :: Pass Value To Form That Opened A Popupform?

May 9, 2015

I have two subforms in a tab formation sitting on a main form. They can both open up a single popup form (via a button) and that popup form is opened via openargs with the autoID field.

What I need to do is pass back a value on the popup forms [On Unload] event to the subform which opened it.

As the popup form is Modal, the subform which opened it can't be changed.

Am I right in thinking I can pass back the value to the form which had previous focus?

Previously, to pass a value from a popup form to a single form I've been using

Code:

If CurrentProject.AllForms("MyForm").IsLoaded Then
do this
else do this
end if

But in this instance, how do I code the On Unload event in which to tell Access which form opened up the popup form, and pass a value back to it?

I'm guessing
Screen.PreviousControl.SetFocus
has something to do with it?

Modules & VBA :: Saving Combobox After Form Is Closed And Re-opened

Sep 26, 2013

I have a main form called frmAF54. In this main form I have a subform named frmPassdown. The subform record source is from a table called tblCards. This table contains many different cards. I have a combobox called lstOpCard in the main form as well. The combobox lists all of the different cards in "tblCards". I have a button called "buttonFilter".

A user opens the form and clicks (or selects) the different cards in the combo box "lstOpCard" that they want to filter for. Once their selections are made, they can click the "buttonFilter" button and the subform "frmPassdown" will be filtered based off of their selections.

The filter is applied using the IN() function as shown below:
Me.AF54PassDown.Form.Filter = "[OpCardID] IN ( " & sTemp & " )" --sTemp is a string containing the keyIDs of the cards selected.

My problem is that people will be opening and closing the form throughout the day / week. When the form closes, it loses the applied filter. How can I have my filter on the subform be saved after the form is closed and the filter is still applied when the form is opened later?

Forms :: Access Form Must Be Opened In Design View Before Use

Oct 1, 2013

I have a access form that has a text box that holds a search term. The search term is used as a variable in a query. The query results populate a list box. Selecting a result in the list box populates the rest of the form where the record can be edited. All of that works great...sort of. When first opening the form you cannot view any records. The search function works fine and the list box populates but selecting a record does not populate the rest of the form. Attempt to navigate (next, first, etc.) and you get a "You can't go to the specified record" dialog. There is a simple fix for this. Open the form as normal. Then switch to design mode. Do absolutely nothing. Switch back to form mode. All is well.
